C1265 Where is the garrison? (1/2)
The size of the Amami Oshima was not big nor was it small. More than 700 square kilometers of land in Great Qing Province was already enough for half a county.
The area of the Lumaa was not very big, it occupied about 20% of the entire Amami Oshima, which was about 150 square kilometers. If it was placed on the map, it would only be a small area the size of a sesame seed. However, if a human's legs were to measure it, that human would have to be tired of spitting out blood.
If they wanted to search the entire Lumaa in the shortest amount of time, these Russian Army soldiers would have to use the fastest speed possible to occupy all the high grounds.
”Fire! Fire this village! Not leaving any captives, kill all the Chinese … The enemies must be hiding in some corner, waiting for us. We must force them out … ”
The military officer in the front line gave the order, and very soon, the fishing village began to burn up in a raging fire. The civilians who were trying to escape were killed one by one from the forest, screaming in pain.
On the flagship, EdStefanski watched the battles on the islands with rapt attention. He watched the companies rush to the beach and the burning villages and fields, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
”Right right right, you did very well …” I can't believe there's no enemy here. There must be someone hiding! ”All you need to do is force out their positions, then charge up and annihilate them …”
”If you kill all these civilians and the garrison troops still haven't appeared, then this proves that the Golden Island is a trap. I will immediately turn my head and leave and definitely won't stay here for even half a second …”
The cunning EdStefanski still had not ordered his fleet to enter the bay. He had only carefully split up his troops to make way for the exit of the thing near the strait. He had to get the answer he wanted from the Lumaa.
Molière was surprised by the commander in chief's calmness, and admired the abilities of the basic officer s. Under the orders of the commander in chief, they were able to come up with tactics and plans that were closest to a big strategy just by relying on his own intuition, the quality of these basic officer s was indeed high.
”So the commander in chief was not bragging. The soldiers that he brought out this time are really the elite soldiers under the command of the Tsar. Just by looking at how clear this general line of thought is for the Queue length, one can be sure that these officers are all from aristocratic families …” Looking at those soldiers who were like tigers and wolves, attacking without any hesitation, regardless of whether it is in the mud or in the river, no one hesitates when giving the order to jump down … ”
”As expected, they were the first batch of freed serfs. Their hearts were filled with gratitude towards the Tsar, as well as strong expectations to change their fates. When this army came to East Asia, Xiao Letian was truly guilty …”
Up until now, there were already more than a thousand people in the two battalions that had logged onto the Russian Army first, and now, the landing field was no longer enough for the soldiers to follow up. The troop carrier s began changing targets, and the small boats began to look for new locations to land on.
One, two, three, four... Within half an hour, another six landing points were opened up. The soldiers formed rows to control more and more coastlines, and the vanguard unit began to climb the mountains.
But there was no garrison, and even now, there was no sign of Xiao Letian's garrison! A strange atmosphere started to permeate through the Russian Army!
”Bastard!” This bunch of cowards! You're not coming out, are you? Then I'll force you to come out... Kill all the people, burn all the villages and farmlands, destroy all the small dams, bury all the wells... Destroy everything you can see! ”
”I would like to see whether the destruction is simpler or the construction is simpler! ”I don't believe that you can endure the ten years of struggle that you Chinese have gone through …” ”You … ”
The barns of the villages were set ablaze, the people hidden inside were smoked out and quickly hunted down. The distant paddy fields were also on fire, the small dams used to irrigate the sugar cane forests were all destroyed by the explosives, and not a single one of the water conservancy facilities were left alive …
