Chapter 123: The Shabak Rebellion
Twenty minutes ago, the officers of the Foreign Legion had returned to Shabak, and even though the murderous operation had been completed, the fleeing senator had become their greatest defeat, and their minds were now full of thoughts of escape. , the latest chapter access: Π¨Π¨Π¨.79xs.Π‘ΠΎΠ . For them, what they did just now has become the biggest amulet, killing people and destroying their mouths is enough for them to go to the labor camp to work until they die, and attempting to murder the patriarch is equivalent to a great crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, at this moment their faces are pale, their steps are vain, and their minds are blank.
"I said it would be better to run away from the beginning," whispered an officer in some frustration, who was now hiding in an officer's quarters in Shabak to discuss how to escape. "You just said that as long as you kill those people, you can stay in peace."
"Yes, it would have been enough to kill those people, we were all there to prepare to hang people, but why didn't you stop those people?"
Later, the far branch did not inspect the battle, and the solitary appearance was connected to the sun
"I didn't watch? Why didn't I see it? There are so many people in his family, how do I see it? And it's the person you tied, the rope broke free when the person escaped, you didn't tie it well, you can't blame me! β
"You can chase after it, why do you shoot? Don't you know that there is a sound in shooting? "Don't shoot? If you don't shoot, will you guys be able to catch up with him? He is a soldier in the same batch as Ruan Wen's 'jade' Niu Jinxing and others, and his physical strength is stronger than ours, even if we all catch up, we may not be able to beat him. β
"The problem is that elder, you were in charge of the perimeter at the time, why didn't you stop that elder?"
"Why didn't you stop it? The patriarch is the largest in Dongfang Port, how can I stop him where he wants to go? The person who spoke looked depressed, "If you can watch everyone and hang their family earlier, where will there be so many things?" β
"A few of you digging 'holes', the speed is too slow, digging so that the elders of the people have run away and haven't dug well, if you want me to dig the pit early, people will throw it in and bury it as soon as they come, where is there so much trouble?"
"Originally, it was said that they would let their family hang themselves, who knew that they would shoot? Who knew you were a piece of waste that would attract the patriarchs? β
"I brought it? It's unreliable for you to do things slowly, I didn't follow you if I knew it earlier, I will be able to enter the officer training class after a while, and I will be able to lead the company when I come out, but I have to run away with you first! β
"Not you yet? We all shot several times and didn't kill anyone, and when we were digging the pit, you still saw the prisoners, they didn't see it when they pretended to be dead, and they didn't see it when they secretly untied the rope, and they were even thrown to the ground by a person who had already been shot several times and couldn't get up! It's your fault that the patriarch escaped! β
With a few gentle knocks on the door, the volume in the room, which had begun to increase slightly, immediately stopped abruptly, and an officer leaned over to the door and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?" β
"It's me, I'm back!" The 'door' was opened, and one of their accomplices immediately flashed in, holding a few pieces of paper in his hand.
"How's it going? When is the right time to escape? A person closed the 'door' and hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"Run?" The person holding the paper looked bitter, "How can you escape?" We shouldn't have gone back to Shabak! "The whole of Shabak is under martial law, all the Foreign Legion personnel are only allowed to enter and not leave, all weapons are 'handed over' to the ordnance warehouse, and the guns and ammunition are separated, and even the sentry's guns are only allowed to contain one bullet." β
"What then?" Several people in the room were dumbfounded, "If you are allowed to enter or leave, then what are we going to do when you come back?" β
"Like, aren't we trapped in Sabakri now?" "Isn't that the end of it?"
"That's not the scariest thing!" A man next to him said, holding a piece of paper in his hand, "This is an order that all officers must be subject to financial investigation, and anyone who has unclear sources of property must be subject to quarantine review." And......" His words paused here, making the people next to him can't help but lift their hearts, "The Joint Chiefs of Staff will also send an investigation team composed of all veterans to investigate the 'smuggling' of weapons." β
"! Now it's really over! "Senate Investigation Team!" "What should I do?" The room was suddenly in chaos, and several officers spoke in low voices, apparently without a claim.
"Don't talk!" The first person raised his hand, and immediately silenced the officers who had lost their opinions in the room, and the room was suddenly silent and the needle drop could be heard.
"We did something that did not comply with the regulations, but this matter is nothing if it is placed in Annan, you must know that Annan's firearms were 'smuggled' from Dawu before, and it is not a felony to resell arms anywhere." The leader was very calm at the moment, "But in front of this Chinese, he regards firearms as very important, and aggressively 'forces' people to 'force' me to die, which is too deceitful and too much!" β
A few people in the house, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to continue the conversation. Indeed, most of them were foreign legions that had been reorganized into the Annan New Army, and their previous identities had their own merits, including the Xiang Army, bandits, and even local ruffians. Before they were designated as rebels, many generals of the Champa Gangxiang Army also asked them to buy the senate rifles in their hands, which allowed them to earn their first pot of gold early, so it was out of control. At that time, the behavior of 'smuggling' rifles out of the Senate was not known to anyone, but no one cared about it, you must know that the top general of the new army at that time, Princess Jiao, was recalled to Hue, and the management of the new army was only a few big soldiers who joined the army with them. Therefore, although most people are aware of the matter of arms smuggling, no one has initiated an investigation or punishment for this matter.
But now that the new army has been reorganized into the Senate Foreign Legion, which is under the jurisdiction of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the supreme general Qian Longzhou at the moment works in Shabakri every day, and the former commander-in-chief Li Yuan is also wandering around in Shabakri all day and night, as if "Lao Tzu is still in charge". On several occasions before, there had been signs of 'smuggling' and 'exposure', which allowed the Foreign Legion military headquarters to catch and investigate for a long time, but because there were relatively few people among them, and the relationship of interests was complicated, they also covered it up, but at that time, the military department's aggressive 'force' in the investigation had already made them frightened. However, this time, the Beiyu 068 'smuggling' boat was seized, and the weapons and ammunition on the ship were discovered, which is ironclad evidence, and it can be imagined with the soles of the feet that it will definitely not be able to escape the involvement, not to mention the veteran investigation team sent by the Joint Staff Committee.
"! Labor till death is done! "I wouldn't have done this if I knew I wouldn't have done it!" "That's it, even if you go to ask for food, it's better than sifting sand to death!" Several officers sat down on their stools, their faces as dead as ashes, and they looked lifeless.
"Shut up!" The leader roared in a low voice, "We're not dead yet!" Don't forget! He said and pointed to the epaulettes on his shoulders, "We are still officers, and there are still obedient soldiers under you, right?" β
The people below were already as white as ashes, but now they were as white as paper, and one of them trembled and asked, "Do you want to start an incident?" β
"Exactly!" The leader nodded, took a few deep breaths, and said, "I'm not dead at this moment, why should I be arrested?" That guy knows how to cover the senator to escape and avenge himself, why can't we arrest a few senators to negotiate with the senate? What's more, there are guns and ammunition in this Shabak armory, and there is food in the logistics warehouse, and there are cannons and machine guns, even if they fight, they may not be able to fight. β
As a result of these words, the following people were short of breath, and their faces couldn't help but start to flush, "Also, in this way, we have hostages, we will be able to negotiate with the Senate, and we will be able to leave Shabak safely when the time comes!" "What is safe to leave Shabak? I said that I wanted a thousand taels of silver to go to the south and become a rich man. β
"You people just don't have any ambitions," the leader shook his head depressedly, "why run away?" We have guns and food on hand, what are we afraid of? We ourselves saw the power of these weapons in the last defense war, and the army of 100,000 failed to take it, and the army that changed to the Senate was no better, and we didn't go anywhere, just stayed here. Saying that, a smile appeared on his face, "If you want to be an official, kill people and set fires to be recruited, this is true everywhere, we have guns and cannons in our hands, and someone next to us will come to recruit us." β
"Who recruited us? We've just beaten the Senate's army, and we still want to wait for the Senate to come and recruit us? An officer asked weakly, and the officer shook his head, "Not so good, but can you think of someone who will recruit us?" β
"Annan?" Someone asked tentatively, and he said with a smile, "You guys, it's too young, too simple, why would Annan send a hundred thousand troops to fight us?" It was the Medeno who stumbled behind the scenes, instigating the Annamite to come to their deaths, as long as we can capture Shabak and hold it, then the Medeno will come to us on their own initiative. And we only need to do one thing well, and that is to capture alive a few of the patriarchs of Sabakri. β
============================= divider =============================
At the Shabak Armory, several Foreign Legion soldiers standing guard today were somewhat 'refined', and they received an order today that all the weapons of the Foreign Legion officers and men, except for the sentries, should be put into storage for storage. The sentry standing guard opened his mouth and yawned for the twentieth time, he was really a little tired today, in the afternoon thousands of officers and soldiers poured into the armory to hand in the weapons of the grand occasion was unprecedented, he was not on duty at that time was also transferred to temporarily maintain order.
After yawning, he squinted and always felt that he couldn't open his eyes, in order not to let himself want to sleep, he lifted his 1628 rifle, opened the bolt again and checked the chamber, it was empty, and he 'touched' the bullet bag on his waist, and looked inside, it was empty, and there was only one bullet. He laughed self-deprecatingly, if there was an enemy attacking, his own bullet would only be used to scare people, and it would be useless.
He raised his head, but vaguely saw a few people in red 'color' military uniforms walking in front of him, and it seemed that they had also come to 'hand' back their weapons. "Stop! What people! Knowing that he was an officer, he still shouted and brushed his sense of existence.
But the reaction of the person on the other side was different from what he imagined, not only did not stand still, but accelerated and ran towards him. The sentry was already a little sleepy, and at the moment his head was a mess, and he didn't wake up to the anomalies at all, he just stood there in a daze, a little late two seconds, and shouted again, "Stop!" Who? What are you here for? β
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a "whoosh", and a sharp object tore his throat, and before he could feel the pain, he fell limply to the ground.
"Well done!" The leader of the officers whispered praise, and the other hurried two steps to pull out the throwing knife from the corpse's neck and wipe it on the corpse's uniform. Some of the men next to him stepped forward to take guns, some to take bullets, and soon some people stepped forward to remove the corpses, and an officer stood guard in his place with a rifle in his hand.
In the duty room not far away, an officer on duty was dozing off on the table, and not far behind him, a soldier was leaning on a chair, his head was leaning against the wall and was napping, his hat fell to the ground, and the kerosene lamp on the table had been turned down at the moment, and the light in the room was quite dim.
The door was quietly pushed open, and two officers entered, one holding a rope in his hand, and at the same time put the rope around the necks of the two nappers, and then pulled the men to the ground and pressed them against the other's necks with their knees, and the two victims only had time to struggle a few times before they suffocated to death.
"Key, hurry!" A few more people rushed in and opened the cupboard where the keys to the arsenal were kept, some taking the keys and others picking up the weapons and ammunition on the officers on duty. "There's really only one bullet, damn, it's good to be the other way around, otherwise I will definitely be 'killed' by the gang of miscellaneous people in the Senate!"
"Alright, the arsenal is in hand, you go and call someone!" The leader pointed to one of the officers, "Okay," the officer was about to turn around, but was stopped again, "Remember that the person who called must be reliable, we are a big matter of killing heads, if it is not reliable, the news leaks, everyone is finished!" β
"Rest assured! Our lives are all together! The officer nodded repeatedly, pushed open the 'door' and went out.
"Okay, let's hurry up and see what weapons are in the arsenal, this is a rebellion, there is a way only with a gun in your hand!" The leader nodded with a sly smile and walked towards the arsenal with a few of his men.
