C1692 Declaration of surrender (1/2)
The young Governor greedily drank the water in the kettle, the cold spring water allowed his consciousness to regain its calmness, ”Venia wants to kill me … Why did he do that? ”Why …”
The six times dose of morphine frightened Akson, and the kettle in his hands trembled uncontrollably.
Bing Tai knew that he had to strike while it was hot, before Venia could even regain his senses, he had to get Akson to give the order to surrender.
”Your Excellency, you have plenty of time to study this problem, but not now …” This place is extremely dangerous, no one knows where Venia's subordinates are hiding. Morphine is not the best killing tool, but bullets are the most effective … ”
”Bring Mr. Andreev up here …” Bing Tai spoke with a sad face: ”If you doubt my words again, you can ask Mr. Andreev to verify it …”
”Did you sign the surrender order for Haishenwai? Was Fajeev defeated in Amur River and surrendered? Has the Black Dragon River changed into the territory of the Qing Empire's Imperial Party? ”
After throwing out one question after another, the ashen-faced Andreev could only nod his head. He knew that he had lost the upper hand.
”Well, my dear Governor, you have all the answers you want. If you don't surrender, you might have to wait for them to assassinate you again.
Akson was desperate, his face was pale white. He was supported up by the soldiers and changed into a new set of military uniform.
Just as he was tidying up his appearance, Venia, who had choked to death, woke up. Looking at his posture, he knew that it was not good, and struggled to get up. Akson is not... ”You can't surrender, you can't go …”
Akson looked at him angrily: ”You aren't going to surrender, are you waiting for death? Over ten thousand lives were lost here? ”Would the Chinese be allowed to make a mass graves here and show off their military prowess to the world?”
Venia shook his head in pain: ”No, I just want you to die … You can't get out alive... You will bring calamity to the Empire! ”
Venia was simply choking his head because of the pepper. At the moment, his brain was still in a state of hypoxia, and the words he said did not go through any modification or thinking.
How could a young man endure such humiliation? He thought to himself, if you want me to die, I have to live a better life. Why do you think I am a scourge of the Empire? Will I be able to harm the interests of the empire if I am still alive? What nonsense was this?
He no longer bothered with Venia and turned to look at Bing Tai and nodded, ”I have information on you. You're the foster son of the Prime Minister, and the fact that you came personally to save me is proof of your sincerity. I am extremely grateful …”
”Now, send my order. All Expeditionary forces raise their white flags and put down their weapons … We have surrendered! ”
”No …” ”You can't go …” Venia was stubborn like a madman, while Andreev had already given up hope and closed his eyes.
”Beat this traitor to death …” The angry army officers all rushed towards Venia and started to beat him up.
