C995 boiling of discontent among the people (1/2)
Just as the public hearing was in its most boisterous state, a squadron of cavalrymen suddenly appeared from the east side of three-way groove. From the looks of it, they were probably headed towards the boarding area.
The leader was the To Boss who conducted the arms trade in the Far East Region. In fact, his true identity was the person in charge of the Far East Region and he had already started planning to gather information on the Far East Region two years ago.
To Boss's real name was Doehring Cowart. He was a follower that Wang Huaiyuan recruited when he just established the Torture Chamber.
After exchanging some words with the Rangers, he was quickly brought to the front of the Dragon Lord. He gave a formal salute towards Dede and said, ”Please move, General. There is an urgent military message …”
The two of them walked into the command post and said nervously to Dford, ”The war for the gold mine in Qingdao has already begun. As I was sailing north, the battle was nearing its end. The situation is not looking good …”
”The troops of the two battalions of the Russian Army were all drawn from the Far East, and none of the servants of the other races could be found. My ship did not dare to approach, and could only judge the situation of the battlefield by the sound of the cannons and the flames of the island …”
”I stayed ten kilometers north of Qingdao for a day. In the evening, the spies in Haishenwai finally sent over the latest intelligence. The Qingdao's gold mine had already been occupied by the Russian Army, so there are currently no miners that have escaped …”
Dragon Lord frowned, ”All dumplings have been wrapped up? And no one came out alive? ”
”There should be survivors. Although this group of Russian are ruthless and bloodthirsty, they are sparse in the Far East Region and they need people to serve them. I think a certain number of captives will be sent out to be labourers … ”In addition, I reminded them during the last unloading that if the war didn't go well, they would be able to hide in the gold mine and the cave, and that way, a group of people would survive …”
”Haishenwai is only about a hundred kilometers away from three-way groove. It's too dangerous for us to have enemy cavalry soldiers arrive so late!”
Dragon Lord pushed the map away and calculated carefully. ”The defeated soldiers do not have any war horses, so they can only rely on walking to other outposts to escape. When Haishenwai obtains the news that the three-way groove's military camp has been breached, it will take some time to gather their forces … ”Three days. We should still have three days …”
”General, three days isn't a long time. We have to make use of this last chance to build trust with the locals, otherwise we won't be able to survive this winter. The -30 to -40 degrees Celsius is even more terrifying than the Russian …”
”Not only that, General, you changed the Prime Minister's strategy without permission. This has already caused a great deal of trouble for the rear. With more than a thousand Russian Army wiped out, it will definitely cause a huge international uproar, and it will also cause a prolonged diplomatic war. This is extremely disadvantageous to us …”
”Evacuate, General, split up and hurry up. Before the rear is ready for the final battle, we can't fight on such a scale anymore. Our priority now is to survive the cold winter. There will be more chances for us to fight in the future!”
Dragon Lord was not stubborn. He understood the meaning behind the words he just said to him, and after a moment of hesitation, he nodded. ”Your analysis is right, I am really impatient for this battle, I know what to do!”
Right at this moment, a tsunami of roars suddenly erupted at the faraway public trial. The public trial had finally reached its most critical moment, and the heavily sinned Battalion Commander had already lost control of his head due to the rock rain.
Previously, the public trial of soldiers and low-level military officers was just the appetizer, the high-ranking judge was the main show, the citizens who had been motivated had already fallen into a frenzy. They did not care about the consequences, and now, they were too lazy to even take out the evidence to reprimand them.
”That's him …” He was the culprit … Slash him to death with a random knife... ”Eat his flesh …” The crowd surged forward, and after a shower of stones, countless people rushed up, making a rattle sound as they rushed towards the loyal soldiers who were in control of the situation.
