448 Disillusionment

For the first time since the start of the war, Liu Zizheng and Griff's headquarters moved forward, based in Omuel, where the fighting had just stopped. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

By this time it was the middle of June, and the 100,000 Russians in the encirclement did not put up much resistance and almost all surrendered.

To be honest, in the face of the threat of death, the Russians did not show much bravery, even if the Russians still had an army of nearly 100,000 people and still had a certain ability to resist, the Russians surrendered en masse without much hesitation.

The Russian nation is very strange, they are not lacking in blood, but they are also cowardly in their bones, and when the authorities seem to be irretrievable, the Russians do not have the determination to be broken rather than destroyed, and it is normal for them to surrender.

Think about it, in the early days of World War II in another time and space, the Russians also surrendered on a large scale many times, each time by hundreds of thousands.

It was a spectacular scene.

Liu Zizheng and Grace have now seen this spectacular scene.

The endless contingent of captives, numb and ragged, lifeless, hopeless, and faithless, followed the crowd and dragged themselves to the Omuel train station, where they took the train to the unknown distance.

Among the prisoners of war, Foreign Legion soldiers with red armbands on their arms were escorted at gunpoint, who would be responsible for carrying the prisoners safely onto the train.

After being sent to the train, the work will be taken over by the members of the Secret Service, who will ensure the emotional stability of the prisoners of war on the train, and then after a long journey of half a month, from Samuel all the way to Vladivostok.

Well, this distance is almost the beginning and end of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and the Russians built this in the first place, but they certainly did not expect that it would be used to transport Russian prisoners of war today.

"Looking at the way they look, I don't think they're very competent." Xu Sheng, commander of the Third Division of the Foreign Legion, had a gloomy face.

In this battle, Xu Sheng's troops suffered heavy losses, which made Xu Sheng unhappy no matter what.

Of course, a large loss also means a great credit, Chen Yongfu is Xu Sheng's subordinate, in this battle, Chen Yongfu and Zheng Jing's company made great contributions.

"No matter what, it's no longer something we have to worry about now, Lao Chen wants someone, let's get it, how much of a role we can play depends on Lao Chen's ability." Liu Zizheng is not worried, the current war is progressing smoothly, and Liu Zizheng is in a happy mood.

After crossing the Oka River and flattening in the direction of Moscow, Liu Zizheng was rotating his troops, breaking forward to Ankang's Fourth Division and beginning to advance in the direction of Moscow.

On the question of whether or not to attack immediately, there was a disagreement between the Foreign Legion and the South Russian armed forces.

Liu Zizheng wanted to attack the Yellow Dragon and capture Russia before Moscow and Yudenich were decided, so that the Russian Bolsheviks would retain a part of their strength and not be exhausted.

Denikin wanted to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and waited for the Bolsheviks to lose both of Yudenich and Kolchak, and then Denikin came forward to clean up the mess.

Denikin couldn't resist Liu Zizheng in the end, because Liu Zizheng also wanted to return to China as soon as possible to participate in Qin Zhiyuan's enthronement ceremony.

The result of the stalemate was an immediate attack on Russia, with the Foreign Legion advancing quickly, regardless of the involvement of the South Russian armed forces.

"Yesterday Yudenich's troops lost again, they are already on the verge of being driven back to Estonia, I guess the Russians will target us next, we have to be ready." Xu Sheng reported the information he had just obtained.

"Moscow is already taking care of itself, we are not necessarily the next target, and from the map, Vladimir is much closer to Moscow than Cherny." Liu Zizheng is not in a hurry.

Although Liu Zizheng's offensive attitude is resolute, in terms of advancing speed, Liu Zizheng controls it very well.

Just as the Foreign Legion continued to the north, Kolchak's troops were advancing westward, and now Kolchak's forward troops had advanced to Vladimir, closer to Moscow than Cherny, which the Foreign Legion had just occupied.

"Our troops and Kolchak's troops are now less than 200 kilometers away from Moscow, although our distance is farther, but our troops have more tanks and the roads are smoother, in terms of threat, we are more threatening than Kolchak, so I feel that Moscow will take us as the next target." Xu Sheng had a different opinion.

"That's just right, destroy them completely!" Cliff rarely speaks.

"Old Ge, you are too violent...... Don't forget yesterday's telegram from headquarters, from now on, we should shift our goal to looting, after all, we are mercenaries. "The sanctimonious Liu Zizheng's heart is also black.

"Boring!" Griff cursed indignantly and turned to his car.

As a soldier, Grace is relatively pure.

Griff hated everything that had nothing to do with war, massacres, looting, arson, going against the will of women, anything else, Griff was not interested, Griff only wanted to destroy all the enemies in front of him.

Of course, not everyone thinks so, such as Chen Yongfu.

Chen Yongfu's troops made great contributions in this campaign, and it is conceivable that they will definitely be rewarded, and the bonus is of course indispensable.

However, before they get the bonus, Chen Yongfu and the others now have a chance to make a fortune.

Because of the heavy casualties in the previous battle, Chen Yongfu's 3rd Division was reorganized as a rearguard unit and is still stationed in Omuel.

Omuel is the capital of the state of Omuir, and as the seat of government, it is obviously quite prosperous, at least in the eyes of Chen Yongfu and others, it is quite prosperous, like a big treasure trove to be developed.

War is criticized for its innumerable acts of violence, even in civil wars.

For example, the current Omuel, the soldiers of the Foreign Legion can still maintain a certain degree of restraint, but the Russians of the South Russian armed forces are acting arbitrarily.

Both the Foreign Legion and the South Russian Armed Forces are crowded in the city of Omuel, and they must be stationed in different areas, and on the side of the Foreign Legion they can barely maintain social order, while on the side of the South Russian Armed Forces they are completely disorganized.

Robbery, rape, shooting, arson, this is an almost daily drama in the area controlled by the armed forces of South Russia.

Denikin had no intention of interfering with the atrocities of the troops, as if this was the power that the soldiers of Denikin's troops deserved, and the inhabitants of the city of Omuel were numb, except for some who took advantage of the chaos to flee to areas controlled by the Foreign Legion, the rest barely resisted, leaving the soldiers of the South Russian Armed Forces to do whatever they wanted.

Everything seems to be a matter of course.

The tyranny of the South Russian armed forces inevitably spread to the side where the Foreign Legion was stationed, and although many soldiers of the Foreign Legion did not openly kill people and set fires, it was inevitable to make a small fortune by means of violent persecution.

Of course, shooting and rape are absolutely impossible in the Foreign Legion, they are expressly forbidden, and if anyone dares to break it, the punishment will make him repent.

Even so, after a few days, almost everyone in the Foreign Legion made a small fortune.

The work of the post office is the busiest, and there are countless parcels sent to Germany, France, and Lanfang, many of which are large boxes with huge volumes, and they are expensive to keep their value.

Liu Zizheng and Grace knew about the situation, but they did not interfere with it.

There is no way to intervene, this is part of the war, and it cannot be stopped even in the 21st century.

"Look at this, a gold pocket watch studded with diamonds, tsk, if this is taken back to the Republic of China, why is it worth a hundred and ten oceans......" In the officer's dormitory of a hotel, Chen Yongfu was busy showing Zheng Jing.

Chen Yongfu had a necklace around his neck, three or four pocket watch chains on his chest, and even a jade pipe with gems in his hand, which he took out of place.

"It's not worth much, it's not diamonds, it's crystals, it's gold......" Zheng Jing took it and played with it for a while, and then threw it back to Chen Yongfu.

Zheng Jing carried a watch at night, of course, this is also one of the trophies, and it is the earliest style launched by Cartier Clocks, if it is thirty or fifty years, the things on Chen Yongfu's body are not as valuable as the watch on Zheng Jing's wrist.

After living and dying together for so many days, Zheng Jing no longer puts on a dead face at any time, he should eat and drink, but he still talks relatively little, and he hardly communicates with anyone other than Chen Yongfu.

Compared with the stuffy gourd at the beginning, it is now good, at least Chen Yongfu is more satisfied.

"Rub, that means Lao Tzu has been deceived again?" Chen Yongfu was immediately furious.

Again!

Well, it's not the first time.

"It's not like being deceived, even if it's not diamonds and gold, a hundred and ten oceans should still be worth it." Zheng Jing affirmed with mockery.

Even if those diamonds and gold are not so valuable, this is also a pocket watch, and its own value is there, even if it is not easy to sell in Europe, it will not be difficult to return to Lanfang, if you get the Republic of China, well, one hundred and ten oceans are a little less.

"That's fine, it's worth it and it's not in vain for us to spend this time." Chen Yongfu was satisfied immediately, he is actually very easy to be satisfied, he doesn't have too much ambition, such a person is actually easy to get along with.

"There are a few South Russian guys on the street every day, saying that they are exchanging souvenirs, don't you go and have a look?" Chen Yongfu temptation.

"Don't go ......," Zheng Jing's answer was concise and to the point.

"If you don't go to me, I'll have to go and get some gold again, and go home and put a pound of gold lock on my son." Chen Yongfu has ideals.

A pound in weight!

Nor is it afraid of stunted growth.

Zheng Jing didn't pay attention to Chen Yongfu, he didn't value these things outside his body.

Just as Chen Yongfu walked out of the room, gunshots rang out again in the area controlled by the South Russian armed forces not far away, and then smoke could be seen rising.

Needless to say, there are soldiers of the South Russian Armed Forces who are committing murder again.

Zheng Jing felt the chill rising from the bottom of his heart, and stood in front of the window with his shoulders crossed, looking at the smoke in the distance and pondering for a long time.

The ideals of the past are as hazy as the smoke in front of them, and they can no longer be seen as real.
