Chapter 551: Waiting for the Rabbit
"Division Commander Planck, what I have to tell you is that although your troops have just arrived in the town of Rhodes, in the next war, your Flame Infantry Division will assume extremely important responsibilities, Governor Teglas and I will fully respect your opinion, if you agree, the Flame Infantry Division will be the vanguard, the first to enter the dark town, you will be our vanguard, I wonder if you are willing to accept this mission?"
On the third floor of the hotel in Rhodes, in the only suite of the inn, Teglas and Scana sat side by side, opposite them was Colonel Planck, the commander of the Flame Infantry Division. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Before the arrival of the Flame Infantry Division, Skarna had assigned tasks to all the troops, including the Flame Infantry Division, from the beginning, Skarna positioned the Flame Infantry Division as the vanguard, and now called Planck alone to ask for his opinion.
"I agree. ”
Planck replied without hesitation, although his Flame Infantry Division is only a downstream unit in the regular forces of the US army, this does not mean that Planck himself is a fool, his military merits are not smaller than ordinary generals, and he can't be promoted, just because he doesn't have enough connections behind him, and now there is an opportunity to get close to Admiral Skarna and Governor Teglas, Planck naturally will not give up.
Now the outside world is rumored that the two giants of Ulysses and Dabinite are going to suppress the Hovington Group with all their might, looking at their actions and judging from the rumors released by the media, such rumors are not nonsense, but Colonel Planck also has his own ideas, in his opinion, the two giants are sure to suppress the Hovington Group, but it will never completely destroy this political group, the Hovington Group will stay after all, at most it is a shrinkage of strength, just change the name, now the group is in turmoil, he must seize every opportunity to show his loyalty, now is the best opportunity, as long as the group survives the difficulties, what awaits him will be a step to the sky.
So he had no reason to refuse Skarna's order at all, not to mention that Skarna just let his Flame Infantry Division serve as the vanguard, even if he let his Flame Infantry Division serve as a death squad, he would agree to it.
And he couldn't refuse, although Scarner's mouth was full respect for his opinion, but if he really didn't know how to refuse, it was probably useless except that he would have to suffer, in this case, it was better to take the opportunity to show loyalty more practically.
"Very well, Division Commander Planck, we will remember your loyalty and dedication, and when the war is won, everyone will remember everything about the Flame Infantry Division. ”
Skarna and Tegras looked at each other, then nodded in satisfaction and smiled kindly.
"It's an honor for the Flame Infantry Division to charge for the Admiral and Mr. Governor, it's just..."
Planck hesitated, and stopped talking.
"If you have anything to say, you can say it, everyone is your own person, and you don't need to worry too much. ”
Skarna raised his eyebrows and said in an indifferent tone.
"Yes, General. ”
Planck subconsciously sat up straight and said carefully: " That's right, from my personal standpoint, I'm willing to give everything for the Hovington group, just general, you should also understand, many times, I have to consider the opinion and support of my troops, my troops have rushed all the way from New Mexico, nearly a thousand kilometers along the way, almost never had a good rest, and now that I am here, I have only rested for a short time and have been sent out as a striker, I am afraid that the ordinary soldiers of my troops will have ideas, and if the soldiers mutiny, in this situation, I am afraid that it will cause even greater riots, so I must have a reason that can convince my soldiers. ”
Tegras's expression changed slightly.
Planck's meaning, he understands it very well, it should be said that the colonel division commander is indeed thinking about this war, he and Skarna both know that Planck is absolutely willing to let the Flame Infantry Division become the vanguard of this war, the dark town has now become the focus of the war, before the warships and aircraft carriers of the US Army did not appear in the territorial waters of the Shenzhou Empire, this is the most important battlefield, and now if the second counterattack war can be successful, the Flame Infantry Division as the vanguard will also be extremely glorious, which is an indelible military achievement.
But in the same way, they had to take into account the thoughts of the soldiers.
The soldiers of the Flame Infantry Division came all the way and were sent to the battlefield again as the vanguard without much rest, which would definitely cause a large number of soldiers to be dissatisfied, and if they mutinied, they could easily influence more soldiers in other units.
Under the shroud of war, the thoughts of ordinary soldiers against war also exist, but no one said it, and once this kind of thinking is led to finally erupt, the consequences are simply unimaginable.
"It's really a hidden danger. ”
Skarna was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "But these hidden dangers must be eliminated by you personally, Division Commander Planck, I can't give a reason for all your troops to agree to be the vanguard, but I can tell you the reason why I arranged the Flame Infantry Division to be the vanguard." ”
"What is the reason?"
Planck asked subconsciously.
"It's because of what you just said, their fatigue, and I'm going to take advantage of it, and it's precisely because of this that they go to the battlefield immediately after a short break, but the state of readiness for war on the road will not disappear, their spirits will still be tense, and they, as the vanguard, will also be dissatisfied with us in their hearts, and at the same time they will want to live more, so that all their actions will be cautious, I am not afraid to tell you, although the road to the dark town from here is not far, but I am afraid that there will be countless traps along the way, so only with enough caution can those traps be eliminated one by one, and this task, it is most appropriate to hand it over to the already tense Flame Infantry Division. ”
Scana smiled slightly, looked at Planck, and explained in a calm tone.
Teglas subconsciously glanced at Skarna, the reason given by Skarna, as long as he is not a fool, can see the far-fetched, he can be sure that Skarna let the Flame Infantry Division be the vanguard has other deep meanings, not what he is explaining now.
Planck knew it, of course, but he didn't dare to ask again, Skarner had already given a reason that was not a reason, and even if he continued to ask without interest, he would not get any other answer, and maybe he would anger the commander of the Marine Corps.
"I... I'll do my best to get through their work, but it will take time..."
Planck was silent for a moment before speaking in a hoarse voice.
"I can give you an extra hour, but that's the limit, we can't do it any more, if the time is extended again, there's a good chance that we won't be able to get back to Dark Town within the allotted time, in which case the consequences may be worse than the mutiny of the soldiers. ”
Skarna spoke in a calm tone.
"Yes!"
Planck was shocked.
The time that Ulysses gave to the Hovington group was twenty-four hours, in this time, they had to take back the dark town, and now more than half of the time had passed, in addition, they had to gather troops from Rhodes town and set off to the dark town, which also took time, to fight the war, and it would take time to occupy the dark town, so it seemed that time was indeed extremely tight, and it was the real limit to have an extra hour.
"Colonel Planck, I understand your difficulties and concerns, but you must be clear that we are now facing war, which is one of the most cruel words in the world, any action in war is difficult, but these difficulties must be overcome, if we are stopped by these difficult groups, let alone victory, we are not even qualified to fight, so no matter what, you have to convince your troops, please!"
Tegras spoke suddenly, looking at Planck with an unusually sincere look in his eyes, and at the same time with irresistible determination.
"Yes!"
Planck replied again, his tone still a little weak, difficult? He was facing more than difficulties now, he couldn't imagine how the soldiers would react when he faced his own soldiers and told them that the Flame Infantry Division would be the vanguard of this war, and he had no good reason to convince the soldiers now.
And without good reasons, it proves that these difficulties are insurmountable.
"Division Commander Planck, you have to cheer up, I can promise you that if we succeed in taking back the dark town in this counterattack war, then I will personally recommend it to the war command, with your military merits, you will soon become a major general, and it is certain that major general is definitely not the end of your rank. ”
Scana solemnly promised.
"Yes!"
Planck's spirit was shocked, and this time the response was significantly louder.
Skarna smiled and said, "In that case, you can go back and convince your soldiers to let them..."
"Boom!"
Before Skarna's words could be finished, a violent explosion suddenly rang out.
"Da Da Da..."
After the explosion, the sound of gunfire like thunder suddenly filled everyone's eardrums.
The originally quiet town of Rhodes seemed to become chaotic in an instant, with footsteps, shouts, gunshots, and explosions all at the same time.
The entire town of Rhodes trembled slightly in the sudden loud noise, and a large number of soldiers began to gather rapidly in the direction of the hotel for unknown reasons.
In the midst of the loud noise of chaos, Skarna faintly heard the words enemy attack.
Enemy attack!
Tegrath and Scana finally reacted, and at this time, when the war was about to begin, someone actually killed the dark town.
Who the hell is it!?
Tegrath and Scana looked at each other, and each saw solemnity in each other's eyes, and a hint of vague fear.
"The Emperor... and Lin Xuanyuan are both seriously injured, it won't be theirs. ”
Tegras opened his mouth, his tone dry.
"It doesn't matter who it is, old man, I'm almost certain that this is a feast before the war begins, and if we can't destroy the enemy who is coming, this war may not have to be fought. ”
Scana said with a gloomy expression.
Tegras was silent.
"Aresis!"
Skarna suddenly roared.
"Here I am, dear brother. ”
Aresis' muffled voice rang out, and his massive body appeared at the door of the suite.
"Let's find out who's attacking Rhodes Town, find them, and kill them!"
Skarna ordered in a cold tone.
"I'm sorry, dear brother, I can't do this, my main mission is to keep you safe, and I won't leave here half a step until the enemy is killed. ”
Without hesitation, Aresis refused Skarna's order.
Skarna raised his eyebrows, and just wanted to get angry, Tegras had already spoken: "Let him stay, since the other party chose to attack Rhodes Town, then his target must be you and me, he will take the initiative to find him, we will wait here, wait for him to die." ”
"Waiting for the rabbit??"
Aresis's eyes lit up, he clenched his fists, and smiled, "I like this suggestion. ”
