When Liang Hong was busy upgrading his base, the wounded man who was bent on revenge on Blind's farm began to recover. At this time, there are no antibiotics, and the defense against wound infection depends more on the innate constitution of the wounded person except for salt water and soju.

Galby was half-lying on the bed, and the five-year-old boy, Nigel, was playing with pebbles by the bed. Old Blinder was originally a family of four, and last year his son Blind went into the mountains to hunt, and when he was discovered, the man had been cut to only the skeleton by the beast.

Galby closed his eyes, and the scene of that day resurfaced. Who the hell are those guys? This question has been haunting his mind.

It seems familiar, but it can't be perfectly matched. Uniform gray uniform, German Mauser 1871 rifle, he remembers, some time ago accompanied the local tax officer to the police, saw it at a mine. The men were all white, but the guards in the mines were yellow natives. No, I ignored it, it was said that the owner of that mine was a white German, yes, that's right. He had already locked the biggest suspicion on the white boss of the mine, thinking that when he was healed, he must investigate it thoroughly.

There was a dog barking in the yard, and it barked fiercely, and it should have been a living person.

"Galby, you bastard, can you get up?"

It was a gruff voice, it was the voice of Adams, the captain of their Northern Mounted Police. Adams came here a lot, and if he was alone, the dog wouldn't bark so much.

Sure enough, when the door opened, he knew the first two except for Blind Sr., the tall but stout one was Adams, and the taller one in the back was Joshua, who had grown up together.

"Gelby, it's good to survive."

Joshua took two quick steps to the bedside and took Galby's hand with concern. The resonance of the blood, that is family affection, Galby felt it. However, from his cousin's words just now, he seemed to have a vague premonition.

Sure enough, the cousin let go of his hand and introduced the officer with a straight face behind him.

"This is Lieutenant Colonel Shears of the Judge Advocate General's Office."

"The Pretorius family?"

The name seemed to have been heard, and Garbi looked at his cousin, and after seeing the affirmative sign, he guessed why the ominous feeling had arisen.

"Mr. Garby, please recount the whole battle again."

Very polite title, without calling him the rank of captain. But this politeness is alienation, and the other party implicitly no longer recognizes his military status.

Truthfully stated, from the discovery of the other party's pathfinder, to the final surprise attack, and then how to escape, Galby did not join his speculation, let alone defend himself. Since the wind and rain are coming, let's face it calmly, and suddenly he is a little grateful for the almost fatal bullet, which gave him another level of state of mind.

"Equipped according to the standard equipment of the Mounted Police, everyone carries rifles and pistols. May I ask Mr. Garby, were you carrying a pistol with you at the time? ”

Shears's questioning made the faces of the observers change dramatically, Joshua and Adams are soldiers, so they naturally know the meaning behind this, even the old Blind, who is a civilian, can also hear that the speaker's motives are not good.

"I wore it, when the rifle fell under the horse, and it was too late to draw the pistol."

For the first time, Galby defended himself by saying that according to Boer military discipline, deserters could be executed after the fact.

"So, while your comrades were still fighting, you abandoned them and abandoned your own men."

The words are sharp, and the tone is thick with mockery. Gharby's face turned pale, yes, this was the most tangled part of his heart. Many times he woke up in his dreams, and he was entangled in his comrades-in-arms, but he also persuaded himself that he would avenge them and prove his innocence with his own blood.

"Enough, Shears, Galby was wounded in battle."

Joshua blushed, dissatisfied with Shears's harshness but a little helpless. Although his family was now the most powerful in the Transvaal, surpassing even President Kruger, the House of Pretorius had a great reputation among the Boers. When the elder Pretorius led the Boer warriors, he defeated the powerful Zulu in a bloody battle, laying the foundation for the survival of the Boers in southern Africa.

"Lieutenant Colonel Joshua, what you just said, are you an officer of the Army Bureau of Investigation, or the eldest son of the Jubert family?"

Hills sneered, and Joshua sighed secretly in his heart, so he had to shut up and watch. In order to completely withdraw little Pretorius from politics, his father used a lot of small means, so it is understandable that Shears retaliated against Galby.

"This kid has done his best, he was shot twice, and the one in his body is very dangerous, and it is enough to survive."

The elder Blind couldn't bear it and took the initiative to defend Galbi.

"Thank you, Mr. Blind, for saving the wounded of the Boer army. But the army was disciplined, and in that battle, ten Boer warriors died heroically. Shears politely explained to Blind Sr., and then turned to Galby with a straight face.

"Galby Joubert, after re-verification, the Judge Advocate General's Office has confirmed that your performance in battle is inconsistent with your status as an officer and has tarnished the honor of the Transvaal Army. Now it is decided that he will be ordered to retire from active duty and be expelled from the army. ”

Like a thunderbolt from the sky, it shocked almost everyone in the room, even Joshua, who had been prepared in his heart, did not expect that the punishment would be so heavy and so ruthless.

"Hills, are the Pretorilius going to war with the Juberts?"

Joshua also had a straight face, staring at each other fiercely. The Jubert family was also a hero among the Boers, and his father led the Boer warriors to defeat the main force of the British army in the Battle of Lang Gap, so that the Transvaal was founded again. It was he himself, who sacrificed his life and death more than two years ago to uncover Jameson's plot to subvert the country, and was promoted all the way through the ranks by virtue of his solid achievements, and now he is in charge of the Internal Security Division of the Military Investigation Bureau.

"Joshua, you can get the commander-in-chief to give the order, and also order me to retire."

Shears did not back down, and during the confrontation between the two sides, no one noticed that the party Galby was extraordinarily quiet.

The mounted police who hurried in the courtyard broke the deadlock.

"Report captain, I just received information that three days ago, a northern indigenous tribe defeated the British South African Company Expeditionary Force that had entered the country illegally."

Like thunder falling from the sky, the content of the report stunned the people in the room.

Before the Transvaal official got the news, Liang Hong quietly returned to the base in the north. People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and he, a yellow man, in a world ruled by whites, is more and more like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered. So he's going to get stronger.

In front of the bronze mirror, facing Xiaobai, who was urgently called.

"Comrade Xiaobai, the engineer who served me has made a sample of the spark transmitter, please confirm it with the system."

"Captain Liang, you are really anxious, in fact, the system can automatically confirm it, you only need to be patient and wait a little longer." Xiaobai complained, the man's mood was no longer so rigid and flat.

Move the transmitter to the table and point it to Xiaobai.

"See, it's very technological, at least in this world, there is nothing more advanced than it." Liang Hong is very proud.

"Your engineer made it?"

"Of course, could you find a better one in this world?" My brother didn't cheat, this thing can't be bought with money in the current world.

"I mean, the average engineer can develop a revolutionary product, can you believe it? Lying to the system is subject to demerit points. ”

Damn, is it also a fault to be too advanced, Liang Hong is a little at a loss.

"This, this was done under my direction."

"Hahaha", laughter came from the bronze mirror, and he heard Xiaobai laugh like this for the first time.

"Kidding, okay, the system confirms that the spark transmitter meets the requirements. The system officially notifies you that you have met all the conditions for the base upgrade. ”

Teasing me, Liang Hong listened to the black lines all over his head, is this still that rigid and bland Xiaobai? However, the latter words made him overjoyed that he was finally able to upgrade.

"What do I need to do with the base upgrade?"

"Need you to get out for a while now." Xiaobai replied.

There was a loud rumble at the base, and when Liang Hong came in again, he found that the above-ground part of the bunker was still the same as before, except for the extra basement, and the heavy iron door looked sturdy. Step into the basement, which is much larger than the original, but the bronze mirror is still there.
