C3025 Mace surrendered (1/2)
The security guards' camp was like a surging tide as the officers present were immediately separated into two distinct groups!
All the commanders who belonged to the Empire's elite troops basically had the status of nobility. Even if they were Knights, they were considered one of the privileged classes.
These people had long been anxious about their future, and there was no clear way of telling how the Republic would treat them.
If they were not willing to lose their Nobility and were even more afraid of being punished by the Republic of China, these noble officers would definitely be afraid of them. As long as they were not forced into a desperate situation, they could not fight to the death.
Now that Marshal Ba Zan had given them a way out, these people were naturally eager to stop the war. One must know that Prussia had kings and nobles, so they would definitely treat people with the same status as them with preferential treatment.
In other words, it would be safer in the hands of the Prussian, and the treatment would be even better!
Other than that, these people were also looking forward to the restoration of the Emperor. Although Ba Zan did not tell them that the surrender was under the orders of the French Emperor, some rumors had already started to spread around in their ears.
Their hearts were in disarray. They no longer had any will to fight. Surrendering to save their lives was their intention!
There were only forty odd military officers left without Nobility, and the leader of them had already been killed. His corpse was twitching in a pool of blood, and a battalion of soldiers surrounded them.
When it was time to lower their heads, they had to do so. These loyal officers who were loyal to their race and not to the emperor looked at the marshal in grief.
”Do you really want to finish this? Can't peace break up? What you have surrendered for, are we brave soldiers that can't die for our people? ”
”Let us die on the battlefield! Let's break out and die on the way! ”
”Marshal …” These commanders could not hold back their tears. ”Marshal!” We are willing to die for our motherland, we are willing to be martyred for our people... Can't it? Even that won't do! ”
”You're in North Africa, in Crimea... It's not like that? Back then, you were facing the enemy's fire, standing at the very front of the Rangers Wu with the status of a general! ”
”Where's that Ba Zan who isn't afraid of death? You told us... Where did that Ba Zan go? ”
The tearful questions made Ba Zan's eyes redden. By his side, Radramiro and the other generals looked at him in shock, how could their hearts be marred by this?
”Pull them down! Concentrate and imprison... If you dare to resist, I will kill you without mercy! ”
”I have a letter of acceptance from the leader. From now on, the troops will be commanded by someone else …”
”Logistics Department has locked down the armoury and materiel depot … No soldier can carry a bullet or a spear! The food will only be distributed to those troops awaiting dispatch... ”
”If that single unit dares to make a move, then surround them. Those that resist will be immediately suppressed …”
The soldiers of the guard camp rushed forward, and dragged the officers who were questioning them out. Those people had no way of resisting and could only shout angrily at Ba Zan.
”Where did the brave warrior Ba Zan go? What about that fearless general? ”
”Marshal …” How are you going to face this scene for the rest of your life? Can you close your eyes before you die? ”
”The warriors of the Kingdom of Heaven who walked in the front... They're looking at you! They're looking at you! How will you face them after you die! ”
Ba Zan stood on stage with his eyes closed, his hands trembling like a sieve, he almost wanted to say something.
But at the critical moment, General Radmiro and others took his hand. We cannot betray your majesty! ”
Ba Zan's tears could not help but begin to flow down his face, ”Burying Sang Sitan... I... I'm not as good as him! It's not as good as him! ”
With that, Ba Zan turned and left, and when he got off the stage, he almost tripped on himself, ”I'm not as good as them …” ”I'm not as good as him …”
