C1312 The sound of gunfire at half past five! (1/2)
Venia was unable to explain his thoughts clearly, it was just like trying to flatter someone at his level.
Others thought that Venia wanted to snatch the contribution, but Venia wanted to please Akson! Because he was very clear that with Akson's talent, becoming a general of the empire was an extremely easy thing to do.
This was something he couldn't be envious of. After all, this person had been born with a golden key, so there was no way he could compare with him. For such people, their resumes must be clean and beautiful, with no stains. For a battle like this, the front half was beautifully fought. The credit could be left, and the end would be a failure. Then, they would have to find someone else to take the blame for their actions.
was a very suitable person to be of this level. Even if his identity was high enough to last a lifetime, he would still be able to make up for his mistake, so the final result would naturally be great news.
But he did not expect Akson to not appreciate his kindness, as he did not understand Venia's good intentions at all. But he was still a smart person, Molière immediately realised as his face became red.
”No, I'll take responsibility for myself. I'll bear the guilt of not being strict with the law …” The young people might have some face, but Venia raised his hand to stop himself from speaking further.
”Akson... It's already five-thirty. Do you think it's worth it for us to waste half an hour over such a small matter? ”Right now, the most important mission is to clean up the war as soon as possible and buy time to take the gold away from here …”
”Is this really a good land? Wrong, that strong Iron-armored Ship will catch up to us any time, with our warship's standards, even if we can force him back, how much loss will it cost? ”
”Young man, escort the gold down the mountain as soon as possible. This is the most important mission, don't you have the confidence to accept such an important mission?”
Akson's heart warmed, and he immediately saluted: ”Yes, Sir General, I will definitely complete the mission well!”
A conflict finally died down under Molière's control, but this group of people had been delayed for half an hour because of the conflict, it seemed like the heavens did not want to help them anymore, everything were forcing them onto the road to death.
Suddenly a soldier ran in from not far away. ”Sir!” ”The inspection of the fortifications on the mountain top and the treasury have been completed. There are no dangerous goods, everything is safe …”
”In the last vault, there was a large amount of silver ingots. There was no gold …” At a glance, the amount of silver stored was at least 20 tons... Furthermore, we found some strange spoils of war at the top of Tangwan Mountain, which seem to belong to high ranking officers. We do not know how to deal with them, so we asked for your permission! ”
When Venia, Akson and the others heard that there was no gold after the last treasury, they felt a little regretful. However, after thinking back to the other three treasury's bountiful harvest, they felt relieved.
After all, the last stronghold was taken at the smallest sacrifice. It was a very good result to be able to obtain a few dozen tons of silver. On the contrary, what the soldier said about the military officer's remnants had aroused the interest of the crowd.
The Tangwan Mountain was 694 meters above sea level, and the Military Maps was labeled as the 694 Highland. On the mountain peak, there was an extremely vast fortification, which was the observation point of the battlefield that Xiao Hexin was at, which was also the center of command.
In the fortifications, on top of a sandbag, a golden pocket watch was lying on top of a piece of paper, Venia frowned and turned his head to look at Akson, he could see the disbelief in their eyes.
In Europe, only wealthy and upper-class aristocrats could afford to buy such a golden watch. Not only was it worth tens of thousands of gold, but you also had to rely on relationships with others to wait for you to die just because you had no connections.
