Chapter 52: Prisius the Grieved
Seeing the wind and making the rudder, speculation is generally to describe some treacherous businessmen, but in life, those nobles who are sanctimonious on the surface, but the nobles who steal and prostitute men and women in their hearts are even better at this, but since it is speculation, there is always a time to fail, and the merchants speculate and fail, which is nothing more than a loss of wealth, but these nobles who want more, once they fail, they will pay more price.
βThe Autobiography of Terry, Vol. 17
"Well, it's okay. I was also shocked when I heard the scout's report just now, after all, that kind of movement should have something to do with you. β
Although Major Davis didn't know about AK47, after discussing with Sean from the scouts, he could probably conclude that the battle should have something to do with Terry.
And just when they decided to take the risk of sending troops to reinforcements, they didn't expect Terry to find them first.
It's still the same makeshift camp, but there aren't those bright campfires at the moment.
Back at the camp together, Terry didn't have time to take a sip of tea before he told Major Davis and the others everything that had happened from last night to now.
The rebellion of those nobles was not much of a surprise to everyone, after all, the scouts who came back early had already seen some clues.
However, when everyone heard the news that Major General Oplar was safe, all the officers and soldiers did not care about the fact that they were in a state of combat readiness at this moment, and cheered in unison.
"Okay, everyone be quiet, after all, it's still a time of war, and the enemy could find this place at any time."
Major Davis was the calmest of the crowd, but he didn't stop the cheers immediately, smiling and watching everyone cheer for a few minutes, and then waiting for everyone to calm down a little before he stopped them.
After all, Major Davis was the highest-ranking officer present, so his words were very useful, and although the young soldiers were still very excited in their hearts, they all stuck out their tongues after hearing this, and then their faces turned straight, and they stood upright under the leadership of their respective officers, waiting for Major Davis's order.
"Colleagues, this time our base area was shamelessly attacked by the Imperial Army, although with Terry's intelligence, the greatest losses were avoided......"
"However, due to the shameful betrayal of the nobles, our base has now been occupied by the Imperial Army......
"But!"
At this point, Major Davis raised his tone.
"We are heroic and fearless revolutionary fighters, and as long as there are still heroic fighters in our ranks, our revolutionary fighting spirit will continue to continue, and we can have such a base again at any time."
"So!"
Major Davis's face was shocked, and he looked around at the crowd before continuing to accentuate his tone.
"Everyone is there, pack up immediately, our goal is to meet Major General Opral. Get moving. β
Just as the group began to walk through the dense forest in the twilight, although the darkness of the woods made it very difficult to move, the team was now full of infinite fighting spirit. And in the castle of Mingguang, where they were getting farther and farther away, Prisius could only be imprisoned in his room in frustration.
The messy hair, the swaggering top hat has long since been lost.
The formal wear stained with a lot of plaster, but the elegant and noble temperament is gone.
The white hands with bulging green tendons are often gone, and only a piece of the civilized stick that is left is left.
Prisius' heart was both remorseful and hateful.
He repented, regretted that he had listened to the instigation of that Yusven, and in the end he had gained nothing.
He hated, hated the damned soldier who had caught Yusven, hated the major Katloff who was gone.
Prisius already feels that his future is bleak, because from today onwards he may lose everything he has.
His status as an earl makes him more likely to inherit a higher title, but all this is given by the Dodge family.
Since he has a noble title and a wealth of status given by his family, he Prisius must work harder and even face greater risks than ordinary family members.
The only secret to the longevity of the Dodge family is that at all times, there is always an important member of the Dodge family on the side of the winner.
And this is one of the reasons why Prisius joined the rebel army, he is just a bargaining chip for the family to invest in this rebel army.
Prisius has always hated this feeling of being a pawn, so he wants to earn this chessboard, so the temptation of the second master gives him hope.
However, all this was completely shattered with the disappearance of the second master. So Prisius repented, so Prisius hated.
But the tragic fate of Prisius was not over there, the door was pushed open, and a soldier of the "Iron Wolf Regiment" walked into his room with a haughty step.
A warrant, a warrant stamped with the seal of Lieutenant Colonel Holley was handed to Prisius by the soldiers.
After reading this simple warrant, Prisius's brain instantly went blank as if it had been struck by lightning.
The content of the warrant is indeed very simple, just a short sentence:
"With immediate effect, by Prisius. Dodge is in charge of the excavation of the Night Pearl minerals. Lieutenant Colonel Horay of the Pioneer Battalion of the Fifth Mountain Division of the Sixth Group of the Empire. β
This was like a bolt from the blue, and the order made Prisius regret it again.
After losing the bargaining chip of the second master, Prisius took the initiative to reveal the matter of the Night Pearl vein to Lieutenant Colonel Horay.
I thought that this news could be exchanged for my glory and wealth, I thought that this news would be able to hug me on the lap of the imperial army, and I thought that even if the result was bad, I could use it in exchange for returning to the south and returning to my home safe and sound.
I didn't expect the ideal to be beautiful, but the reality was skinny.
The reason why Prisius was reluctant to accept this task was not because he had to stay in the desolate plateau, although he had long hated life here, he had accepted his fate since he accepted the family's arrangement.
Prisius was afraid, although he had been arguing with Major General Oprah over the matter of the Night Pearl Vein, in fact, with his cleverness, how could he not see that the Major General's warning was not untargeted.
It's just that I thought that even if there was harm, it wouldn't affect me, but now in the cycle of cause and effect, I want to provoke this thing that I instigated, which makes Prisius want to cry without tears.
"Your Excellency Dodge, Lieutenant Colonel Horray is still waiting for your reply, please decide as soon as possible, otherwise I will be deemed to have rejected the lieutenant colonel's order."
The soldiers who came to give the order did not give Prisius much time to consider, let alone sympathize with the loser in front of him, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he immediately urged expressionlessly, and the Miller rifle in his hand was also opened at the same time.
"You ......"
Where did Prisius receive such treatment, at this moment, his heart was very chaotic, and when he heard such an unreasonable urging, he almost forgot his current identity, and was about to reprimand angrily.
But when his eyes fell on the soldier's cold face, he instantly sobered up, and he was sure that as long as he dared to confront the soldier in front of him, the soldier would definitely not mind giving him the bullets in the chamber.
"Alright, sir, you lead the way."
Swallowing back that angry sentence, in the face of these powerful Imperial soldiers, Prisius could only accept his fate, tidy up his messy appearance a little, stuffed the warrant into his pocket, and then followed the soldier out of the room.
