C1352 Weeping Russian Army (1/2)
Luo Huo's nightmare began from the moment the eight o'clock position officially closed. The snipers that Luo Huo sent out and the advance team members had all been desperately searching for the Russian Army, especially that big fish Akson in the intelligence report.
At about seven-thirty in the evening, under the protection of the loyal Nicholas, Akson finally returned to the top of the Tangwan Mountain.
When General Venia saw that Akson had returned, he was enraged, ”Oh my god! You are hopeless! How many warriors have we sacrificed for you? How can you ignore our sacrifices like that? ”
He Mansiji was panicking. She had also just reached the top of Tangwan Mountain, and had just heard the news of Akson's safety from General Venia. He had originally been worrying about it, but when she saw Akson was back, he felt a wave of despair.
”Foolish! Idiot! What are you doing here? Stay here with the army and go to hell? Even I, a political outsider, knows very well that the war has reached the point where I have no way to turn back the tide. What can save us now are the diplomats, the politicians' minds and their tongues! ”
”Ambassador Ulangeli is in the Beijing. As long as you can meet up with him, with your status, you can definitely become the governor of the eastern region of Russia. With your status, you can negotiate with the Manchu royal family and you'll get what we can't get on the battlefield!”
”We will stand guard here, you will help us from the outside, with His Majesty supporting us from Moscow, and you will benefit from the presence of the Beijing and the ambassador, this crisis can still be solved! Why did you come back? Answer Me... Why did you come back! ”
Akson lowered his head in silence, he did not say a word inside the fortress, at this time, Nicholas who was drinking at the door could not listen anymore. He stood up and said loudly, ”I'm sorry, please allow me to say something, it's not that officer does not want to leave, it's that he is unable to! Just as we were about to climb the mountain, the exit of the Strait was blocked by Chinese warships. Did you not hear the series of explosions? ”
Nicholas said with a sorrowful expression, ”Our fleet is doomed! Our flagship has sunk! ”If the officer hadn't left, he would have been sacrificed by now!”
The fortress was deathly silent! Although the Tangwan Mountain was the main peak of the Amami Oshima, it was too far away from the entrance of the Strait and there was a series of mountains blocking part of the view. All of Venia's group knew that a great sea battle had occurred at the mouth of the Strait, but they did not know the result of it.
Only Akson hid himself at the top of the mountain as he laid on the edge of the cliff from beginning to end, observing the entire process of the battle. At the moment when the St. Peter sank, Akson did not cry nor did he wail like the soldiers of guard company.
Venia rushed forward and grabbed Akson by the shoulder, ”Tell me this is not true! Tell me it's not true! It was impossible for them to be completely wiped out. It was impossible for them to be completely wiped out! St. Peter is the pride of the Russian navy, this is the most advanced Iron-armored Ship! ”How could she be sunk …”
Venia shook Akson with all his might, but in the end, all he got was a long sigh from Akson, ”Ah … That's right, our entire army had been wiped out. That battleship, which could not be warship, had blocked the way out of the sea … That would be a one-sided slaughter! ”
Akson painfully covered his face with his hands. ”There's no way to hit you, there's simply no way to hit you! This was not technology from the same era, nor was it a tactic from the same era! The 210-caliber main cannon can easily blast apart all of our armor, but none of our main cannons can tear off that battleship's skin! ”
”How do we fight?” Just how should they fight this sea battle? ”I don't know, I don't know at all …”
