Chapter 296: Trapped Beast

A day later, the airship formation returned to the place where Rawls's house stored the batch of "iron cabinets".

In order to pursue the ultimate in protection, each "iron cabinet" weighs dozens of tons. To test the gun to take one away, this is already the limit of what the airship can carry.

Therefore, Luo Songxi left these "iron cabinets" in place yesterday, only to let the mercenaries of the Rawls family hide them and guard them.

The mercenaries held out for a day and a night, but fortunately there were no accidents.

This also corroborates Luo Songxi's idea that the Battle of Fort St. John has indeed reached the point of breaking out. The troops that had entered the territory of the Federation, with the exception of the blockade around the watchman, had already assembled around Fort St. John.

In the past few days, Luo Songxi has gone all the way north from the Zu'an region, although it is nominally an enemy-occupied area along the way, but Luo Songxi has basically not seen the troops of the empire.

Therefore, Luo Songxi speculated that the Battle of Fort St. John would certainly be a battle that would determine the fate of the Federation, and it would also be a battle in which the Empire gambled on its national fortunes.

Since the 30 divisions of the Zu'an Region as the general reserve were defeated by Luo Songxi, the empire has not had any follow-up soldiers come from the Great Tunnel.

This shows that the Empire's domestic war mobilization capacity has also reached its limit temporarily.

The dwarves quickly pushed and carried the various parts out of the airship, which was the turret and gearbox they had completed in a hurry, and began to assemble the half-finished "iron cabinets".

The other group of dwarves waited in a group, the chosen "iron cabinet" pilots, observers, gunners, and gunners. Once an "iron cabinet" is assembled, a small team of dwarves will quickly board the "iron cabinet" for test drive and adaptability training.

Luo Songxi led the group of old soldiers to assemble on an empty meadow. He was pushing a cart with several large poke dwarven spirits.

The old soldiers looked at Luo Songxi with some doubts, and the team of more than 4,000 people was talking to each other, and it was a little noisy.

But Luo Songxi didn't say a word, just stacked hundreds of huge "Hercules cups" on the ground in turn, and then half-squatted on the ground and poured wine into the "Hercules Cup".

One cup, one cup after another, full of rituals.

Gradually, no one spoke, everyone looked at the glass after glass of crystal wine, and the whole scene was immersed in an indescribable sense of solemnity.

It wasn't until all the wine glasses were filled that Luo Songxi stood up, looked around at the old soldiers, and said slowly:

"I'm sure you all know what happened at Fort St. John. Stuttgart, Rawls, and the Luo family, what kind of attitude is now, I believe you have all seen it. ”

"I don't know who it was that spread the word about the Resistance to the rear so that the family could be operational and get you back from the front. ”

"But I'm not going to pursue who is behind these small actions. But it should be clear to you by now that no one will be fished out of my troops. Ahead is the state of watch, and all of us, we will fight side by side until the moment of victory. ”

"I know you are afraid, you have never experienced the blood and fire of the battlefield yourself, you have never thought that you would have to face death so early. ”

"But you are active duty soldiers, and in terms of strength, you are indeed the best among the military personnel of the entire Federation. You cannot shirk your duties and responsibilities as members of the Union. ”

"It's not that I'm going to force you to go to war, it's big, you're fighting for the Federation, it's small, you're fighting for your family. ”

"If the Federation loses this battlefield, no matter how powerful you once were and how long your history is, they will all be wiped out. If the empire wins, the first thing to liquidate is those big families, without him, the fattest ears. ”

"Therefore, if the battle is lost, even if you escape for a while, you will be nothing for the rest of your life. Begging for food on the streets, or dying in the wilderness, is the price you pay to escape the present fight against the invaders of the Empire. ”

"Is this the life you want?"

"Among the four major families, the Ke family has been defending the country for the Federation for generations, and the other three, Stuttgart, Rawls, and Luo, should have thought it through, so they unanimously supported this war. And you, have you figured it out?"

"In your past life, you were supported by your family, and you enjoyed a prosperous life with the background of your family. Now is the time for you to give back to your family and fight for your family. Or to put it another way, if you fight bravely and make great achievements in the process of winning this war, and when the war ends, you will still worry about your status in the family and the right to speak in the family?"

"So, from now on, let go of all your fears, let go of your prejudices about me, we are one, and I will lead you to fight together, survive together, and win together. ”

"You have no way out, your family has no way out, and the entire federation has no way out. ”

"So, come on!"

"For the family, for the Federation, for glory!"

After Luo Songxi finished speaking, he picked up a large glass of wine from the ground, took the Hercules cup and rotated around the audience, and then raised his head and drank it all.

"Zhou Zhuo, come out of the queue and tell them your story!"

Zhou Zhuo saluted, came to Luo Songxi's side, and said loudly:

"Once upon a time, I was also a gentleman, just like you. ”

"Don't question my lineage, which is more illustrious than most of you. ”

"My father is the former commander-in-chief of the Northern Military Region and Federal General Zhou Hu, the Zhou family has been running the Northern Military Region for nearly 100 years, and I am the only son in the family. ”

"I used to think that serving in the army was just a gangster qualification, and no matter how hard I worked, there was always a great future waiting for me. ”

"If there is any difference between me and you, it may be that I am cowardly, weak and incompetent, and I am not even a gentleman. ”

"But the war broke out suddenly, and I witnessed the martyrdom of General Konica and received the news of my father's death in battle. That's when I started to improve myself. If you don't improve yourself, it's not enough to avenge the country, and if you don't improve yourself, it's not enough to settle the hatred of the family. ”

"Since the outbreak of the war, I have followed Commander Luo Songxi, and after the battle of the ambush of Caton in the Double Camel Ridge, the battle of the quarry to destroy the tunnel of Zhongbei Road, and the battle of 100,000 mountains against Ameyes, I have personally killed a total of 243 enemies, including 78 above the Golden Rank. Accumulated merit and rose to the rank of regimental commander of the Resistance Coalition Army, responsible for the operational command of all mages in the coalition army. ”

"In the battle against Amiyas, I broke through to the Sanctuary Rank at the age of just turning twenty. ”

"I want to use my personal experience to show everyone that no matter what background you come from, no matter what kind of personality you have, no matter who you are, you can become a good soldier. ”

"As long as you are not afraid of war, you want to fight, you want to fight to the death. ”

"For the Federation, for the Father!"

After Zhou Zhuo finished speaking, he also picked up a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it all.

There was still silence all around, and the wind crackled through the yellow meadows, as if something was being ignited, hoping for a prelude to an explosion.

Finally, a voice rang out, but it was a muffled whimper.

Cindy Gomez, who has a weak personality, doesn't know if she saw herself from Zhou Zhuo, wiped a handful of tears, showed ruthlessness on her face, strode out of the ranks, picked up a glass of wine, and poured it down her throat in a big gulp.

Crow also walked out, and said to Luo Songxi while pouring wine, "Sir, when I make meritorious service, teach me to make that kind of artillery!"

With someone taking the lead, more and more people rushed up to grab their glasses. The wine in hundreds of Hercules cups was drunk and poured and drunk again.

So people kept falling on the meadow and getting drunk, and at the original combat mobilization site, Sven's people recited the slogan "For the Federation, For the Family", the rude people shouted slang similar to "People die X to the sky, they will not die for thousands of years", and there were amorous people who kept muttering the name of the girl who didn't know it......

Even Crow squatted beside a big tree and hummed a ballad repeatedly:

"The oars can't be seen

There were no sails on board

Float and float to the west sky......"

Before in the Zu'an Region, Luo Songxi used drastic means to make these old soldiers fearful, and after that, he used strict drill training to make them pay attention.

But Luo Songxi didn't expect that in this way, he would be able to make these children of the family change their minds and wake up. And only now, let them know that they really have no way out, and the determination in their bodies will be stimulated.

After all, no matter which family can stand out from the vast number of beings in the Federation and become a hero, it must have the gene of courage and perseverance engraved in its bones.

Knowing current affairs and understanding advance and retreat is their daily rule of survival, but once there is no current affairs to know, they can only go and cannot retreat, such genes burst out, which is a powerful force to support them to survive in death.

If your emotions are confined to your chest, you will become a beast called fear. And once released, it will become a bloody tiger.
