135 Taunts and abandonments
After hearing this, Hu Jianguo knew that Zhao Wu was the one who had made up his mind to detain him, he didn't expect that the leader of a small local force like Zhao Wu was so thick-skinned that he didn't even give the military face!
But then again, when it comes to vital interests, the small colonial forces with their own bases don't seem to be very interested in the military......
Who calls the two sides natural competitors?
And in order to prevent the military from gaining weight, the federal colonial government has always favored small forces in the colonies.
After all, a small group of forces is the colonial pioneer (cannon fodder), and it will not threaten the colonial government in itself, but once the military sits large, the consequences are unimaginable!
No matter how loyal an army is, in this era when there are no telegraph and other long-range communication facilities, it is easy to deteriorate if it is thousands of miles away from the mainland.
The necessary checks and balances have always been the national policy of the Purple Dragon Federation.
Even the colonial government was happy to see a small group of colonial forces at odds with the military, so that if the military wanted to go against the will of the Federation, those small colonial forces would be the natural thugs of the colonial government.
Who said that no army in the colonies could beat the regular army?
Regardless of whether Hu Jianguo wanted it or not, in the end, he was escorted by more than a dozen town guards plus Zhao Wu's cronies to march towards Rees City.
However, as soon as Hu Jianguo, who was reluctant, walked out of the gate of Tomato Town, he found that the town guards at the head of the city began to close the gate in a panic.
Hu Jianguo and his party, who were only a few miles away from the city gate, watched in amazement as Tomato Town raised the banner of battle......
"This ...... Chased after it so quickly?
Could it be that Wang Ziming's people have been marching here? ”
When Hu Jianguo was wondering in his heart, the small team escorting him stopped, and the cronies of Zhao Wu's killing directly sent an employee of the town guard back to Tomato Town to inquire about the situation!
After Hu Jianguo saw this scene, he hurriedly shouted: "Everyone go quickly, Tomato Town suddenly closed the city gate, there must be a large army to kill!" ”
At this time, Hu Jianguo's hands were tied behind his back, and there were always at least two gun-wielding guards guarding him, and he couldn't get out at all.
"Big troops? We are not a border area here, where is the 'big army'? ”
Hu Jianguo's words immediately caused a burst of ridicule from the surrounding guards, including the leading cronies, who directly ignored Hu Jianguo's warning.
These people have been at peace for a long time, and they don't believe that war will break out here.
In order to avoid riots in the town, Zhao Wushu suppressed everything Hu Jianguo said before getting positive information.
Even the leading cronies only knew that Hu Jianguo might be a member of the military, but did not know the fact that he was defeated by an army.
Hu Jianguo saw everyone's reaction, and knew that his current identity as a prisoner would not be believed by them......
In this way, the small team found a shady place a few miles from Tomato Town, and rested without the slightest sense of urgency.
It's less than half a day's walk from the city of Rees, and they really don't need to rush.
However, before the guards who had gone to inquire about the situation returned, a thin blue line appeared on the horizon.
After Hu Jianguo saw the familiar military uniform, his whole body tightened, and he jumped up from the ground suddenly: "Look, everyone, that's the army I'm talking about, hurry up and run, they are the rebellious revolutionary army!" ”
In order to aggravate everyone's sense of crisis, Hu Jianguo even raised the banner of the revolutionary army!
Who in the Purple Dragon Federation doesn't know that the Revolutionary Army is a group of thugs who don't take human life seriously for the sake of their dreams (the impression of the people left by government propaganda)?
"What? Will there be a revolutionary army in the Reece City colony?
Although some of them are outlaws, the revolutionaries have never seen them! ”
Someone next to him immediately subconsciously retorted, but after seeing the thin blue line, his tone became less firm.
After all, they were only from Tomato Town, and there were far fewer sources than the residents of Reese City.
Could it be that the revolutionary party really came to the city of Reese to develop the revolutionary ranks?
But where can the Revolutionary Party come here to promote their ideal country in the colonial district of Reese City, where are the profit-making businessmen or expedition teams and mercenaries, and the oppressed toiling masses are enslaved white natives of Obarro?
The people of the colony have long been accustomed to the law of the jungle, and they are not at all interested in the revolutionary party's theory of equality and freedom for all, which is one of the reasons why the revolutionary party has not extended its tentacles into the Obarro colony area.
Although the guards of Hu Jianguo were suspicious, they still got up from the ground, opened the gun safety and returned to the official road, ready to run away at any time......
The soldiers on the opposite side had never seen them before, and they didn't look like bandits at all, so these people suspected that they were federal troops from the mainland!
Hu Jianguo couldn't help but look desperate when he saw the performance of these people, he couldn't understand why these people didn't believe that they were rebels in front of them?
Is it because the opponent's military appearance is too neat, the military uniform is too gorgeous, and the equipment is all unified standard muskets?
Well, this outfit really doesn't look like a rebel......
Throughout the history of the Purple Dragon Federation, even the aristocratic private army did not have such neat and gorgeous military uniforms!
After all, the nobles' private soldiers are used to fight, not as honor guards, and the nobles need to save extra expenses as much as possible, so they will naturally not increase expenses in other aspects of improving combat effectiveness.
"Why don't we go, the soldiers on the other side are completely in battle gun formation, and the comers are not good."
"Well, that makes sense, let's go!"
Finally, when it was clear that the French line infantry on the opposite side was pressing directly in battle formation, the group began to leave.
Then he noticed that the soldiers in blue uniforms were running towards him, shouting loudly to stop and lay down their weapons!
Wang Ziming's soldiers in the other space have all inherited the mainstream language of the real world, without the slightest verbal barrier, and the shouts can naturally be understood by people from Tomato Town!
However, after hearing this, the team guarding Hu Jianguo ran faster, and originally just walked quickly and immediately rose to run!
Of course, hundreds of French line infantry hurled after them!
The rest of the large army surrounded the town gate where Hu Jianguo and his party came out!
The physical strength of the soldiers produced in the different space is great, coupled with the physical fitness of the first-order professionals on the physical side, the town guards who escorted Hu Jianguo soon found that they seemed to be about to be overtaken!
The gang didn't want to be captured by an unknown team, and they had already seen that the blue-uniformed soldiers had laid siege to Tomato Town, clearly the enemy!
It was only then that everyone realized that Hu Jianguo was telling the truth!
Then, in order to increase their running speed, they simply abandoned Hu Jianguo, whose hands were tied behind his back......
