1595 You Have to Live, Right?
War not only brings pain, but also takes away some of people's emotions and some of their sanity.
When the defense line of the shanty town where the kidnappers were located was torn open, these former warlord militants, who had not actually received much formal military training, began to collapse.
Pengeo and the people in his vassal country never thought of organizing a counterattack. When they found that they could not stop them, they ran faster than anyone else.
The Emperor Pengeo had spoken to them before their arrival.
They are not here to dedicate their lives to the future of the empire. They are here to hold back some of the energy of the federal people as much as possible, preventing them from devoting themselves wholeheartedly to foreign wars!
So when this group of people can no longer cause trouble for the federation, they will be the first to leave.
They won't die here, and they don't need to.
A rout often begins with the first deserter.
This is why in wars, deserters on the battlefield have always been shot directly.
This group of foreigners all ran away, and the remaining low-level people, who were not the ones who made the decision in the first place, ran faster.
Soon the entire shantytown was caught in fire, and the Blackstone security team quickly evacuated with the survivors.
This is Mariro, this is not Nagaril.
If some people here hear that there are federal people nearby, what they think in their heads is definitely not "I have to ask if there is a job for me to do", but most likely "I have to kill them!"
In fact, there were still some dead soldiers at the scene whose bodies had not been taken away in time because there was not enough time.
But the Army will take care of these things, they will come over here and bring every boy home.
Austin, who had vented a lot with a gun just now, fell silent again. Until now, she couldn't forget the young man.
She felt that she was used to seeing pain and death, but she didn't know why. When she recalled the young man's desire for life and survival in her mind, she felt an indescribable emotion.
She couldn't forget that boy, and she also wanted to know what he wanted to say in the end.
Perhaps, this will become a lifelong regret for her!
About three hundred people were kidnapped in the entire field hospital——
This is just one of the hospitals. There are similar hospitals in many places. As long as there are people involved in the battle, there will be a complete logistics system.
The federation is not short of money, and the current president has a strong military background. It can be said that there is no upper limit to the budget the military can receive.
Basically every grassroots unit will be equipped with a support system such as field medical care, which is nothing more than a large number of people and a small number of people.
There were more than 300 people, including the wounded and doctors, less than 120 people were dead at this time.
Some of them died on the way here. No one can remember their locations. They just died and were thrown into the grass by the roadside by the locals. Even if they look for them now, they can't be found.
Some of them died of illness after arriving, from blood loss or other reasons.
Most of them were shot just now.
Those armed rebels had completely lost their humanity. When they realized they were being attacked, their first thought was not to resist or escape, but to massacre as many hostages as possible.
The federal soldiers could not understand their behavior, but if they were locals from Marillo, they would understand.
This habit comes from racial antagonism.
The war can fail, and you can be injured or even die, but the opposing race cannot let go!
The hatred engraved in their bones gives them a distorted outlook on life, which only reflects part of their distortion.
Less than ten minutes after the convoy left, a group of soldiers came from a nearby city. These people were also armed rebels.
Pengeo's request is very simple, if he wants money, he will give money, and if he wants weapons, he will give weapons, as long as they can cause trouble to the federal people!
Maybe these people don't dare to form a large-scale force to fight against the Federation, but they still dare to carry out small-scale harassment operations like this.
They arrived a little late and did not block the Federals, so they could only watch the shanty town burn to ashes.
On the way back to the occupied area, more than a dozen people died one after another. In the end, less than a hundred people returned to the occupied area alive.
This number is much less than everyone imagined. Many officers feel that at least 200 people can come back.
Commander Blackstone recorded the entire process in the form of a report and handed it over to the military. The military had nothing to make things difficult for.
Because there is not only the written report of Commander Blackstone, but also the video of the entire process.
From the moment they sneaked close to where the hostages were held, to the beginning of the attack, to the final evacuation, everything was recorded.
There is nothing to be picky about. Even if the Army comes on its own, it may not be any better than Blackstone Security's quick reaction force.
After a brief handover of work, the top military officials were still offended by the report.
Peleus even took the initiative to make some requests for the front line.
First, take no prisoners and shoot all enemies on the spot.
Second, the suspected Marillos should be closely supervised, controlled, and imprisoned in concentration camps. Do not give them the opportunity to go out and cause trouble.
Third, those who have certain evidence but do not cause serious consequences should be punished.
This order, known as the "Three Commandments of Autumn", began to be executed at the forefront of Marillo. The military did not have any objections to this. They also believed that so many people could appear with the support of the Penteo people. Arm the rebels because their policies are too gentle.
It's time to get tough!
Those who survived were transferred back to their home countries, which was a political necessity.
Mr. Trueman said in front of the people that these people should be rescued. Now that these people have been rescued, you have to let people know.
Although some people died, it was not the fault of the Federation, nor the fault of those responsible for the operation, but the fault of the Marillo people!
In the room, the teenage boy already had some experience to understand the world.
He stood a little uneasily.
He was wearing very decent clothes. Even though the small formal suit he was wearing didn't seem very special, its actual cost was much more expensive than many adult clothes of the same specification.
This is purely handmade because no ready-to-wear store would mass-produce such clothing in sizes.
Rich people will not buy ill-fitting formal clothes for their children, while poor people do not have the need or occasion to wear these clothes.
Therefore, the formal clothes of children and teenagers are basically all handmade.
A set of six to seven thousand.
If you notice a flower embroidered with yarn on the inside of his collar, you know it comes from a more famous tailor.
This child is the next president of Mariro. However, since he is not an adult yet, in order to prevent him from becoming a victim in the political struggle or being persecuted by the warlords of Mariro, he will only be allowed to return to Mali after he reaches adulthood. Luo.
Before that, he would spend almost ten years in the Federation.
He will receive the best education in the Federation, and the most professional people will teach him all kinds of knowledge and abilities.
Even the federal government has made some choices for his future "wife", with about a dozen candidates.
You can say this is his misfortune, but it is also his luck.
Sometimes people are helpless when facing fate. No matter how you resist, you have to take a bite of shit.
But you have some choices. You can choose to eat standing, sitting or lying down, and eat dry or thin.
You have to choose, because you don’t have a choice!
There were many people in the room, including the boy's mother, but this woman was asked to stand near the door.
A middle-aged man who looked a little stern walked up to the young man and looked down at him, "Have you memorized what I asked you to recite?"
The young man nodded timidly.
His father had never spanked him, but the butler in front of him would get spanked when he did something he shouldn't have done.
It was shameful to be beaten.
The butler would ask all the servants in the house to come and watch. He would have his pants taken off and then lie on the butler's lap. The butler would spank his buttocks with a wooden stick wrapped in cowhide.
It hurt. The butler never knew what "gentle" meant. He wanted to use all his strength.
The physical and psychological punishment gave him an almost instinctive fear of the housekeeper.
He nodded, "Yes, I can already memorize it." and looked at the housekeeper with some longing eyes.
The butler nodded slightly, his expression still serious, but his tone softened a lot, "My master is of course a very smart boy. This little thing is definitely not a problem for you."
The young man pursed his lips, trying to hide his smile.
He glanced at his mother and then looked away.
When he was beaten for the first time, his mother just stood aside and watched. She didn't say anything. Like those low-class people, she watched him make a fool of himself and didn't even do anything to stop him.
This made the young man feel some indescribable dissatisfaction, but it was the housekeeper who had always been very strict with him. Although he sometimes punished him for doing wrong things, he was mostly a very kind person.
It taught him a lot of truths and led him to see the far future.
Perhaps the role of father is being replaced by this steward.
After all, for this child, "father" is more like something symbolic!
He had only met his father a dozen times before, probably too many.
Most of the time there are just some phone calls and letters exchanged.
Although he heard that his father had committed suicide, he felt sad and sad about it, but he quickly got over his sadness.
People are emotional. If they cannot maintain their relationship every day, even blood relatives will become strangers.
