Chapter 58, Conquering the Tangqiao Expeditionary Force (Happy Second Day of the Lunar New Year!)
Chapter 58, Conquering the Tangqiao Expeditionary Force
After Ling Feng and other officers figured it out, they bowed one by one, saluted again, and shouted: "My subordinates declare their allegiance to Mr. Zhangxiashou! From now on, they will obey Mr. Zhangxiashou's orders!"
Looking at these respectful officers, Lin Dongyun secretly curled his lips: "Damn it, just to ensure that their interests will not be harmed, they have surrendered to me without hesitation. It's true that you are a mother if you have breasts!"
“But now that it’s a civil war, I really can’t scold them for changing their stance so shamelessly in an instant. I can only hope that they can fight to the end when facing foreign enemies. It’s just that it feels a bit suspenseful.”
Lin Dongyun, on the other hand, nodded with relief and said: "Then, pass on the news. I need your entire expeditionary force to surrender to me, and then follow me to counterattack the Tangqiao garrison area."
“Yes! Sir, please rest assured, my subordinates will definitely get things done!” the officers stood at attention and saluted and shouted.
Then he either hurried to the side of the boat and shouted to the speedboat parked outside to hurry up and pick up people, or he directly raised his watch and dialed the communication to notify familiar people.
Commanders like Ling Feng first invited Lin Dongyun to enter the command room, and then used the army-wide communication channel to issue notifications and advice to the leaders of other merchant ships.
Those forgotten soldiers standing at attention and bowing their heads looked around in shock after the officers left, and found that there was no one else around them. Some people couldn't help but asked: "I'm surrendering now."
?”
“What else can we do if we don’t surrender? Are we waiting for those tanks and chariots to blow us to pieces?” said a non-commissioned officer.
“Can’t we seize the commander and threaten him?” a soldier asked.
As soon as he said this, everyone stared at him and even raised his feet and fists as a threat.
The noncommissioned officer leading the team even shouted angrily: "If you want to die, don't take us with you! Didn't you see that we were beaten severely by the officers just for aiming our guns? Didn't Captain Ling Feng prepare to take out his guns and kill us?"
!”
As he said that, the sergeant glanced at everyone with a coercive look: "Remember! Although soldiers must obey orders, our guard area is different. If you are not a guard envoy to your own, you cannot take any offense! Otherwise, your family will definitely be affected.
!”
The soldier who spoke before had his head lowered and shrank like a quail.
Someone still changed the topic: "Now that the officers have surrendered, should we also surrender?"
“What else can we do?” The sergeant rolled his eyes.
“Hey, I heard that the commander-in-chief is preparing to conquer our expeditionary force and then attack the Tangqiao garrison area. Are we going to shoot our former colleagues?” The soldiers were very confused.
The sergeant shook his head and said: "You can't fire. Our expeditionary force has already accounted for two-thirds of the Tangqiao garrison. I believe that our fleet has not yet returned to Tangqiao Village. Those big guys in Tangqiao Village
The choice has already been made. Just as we had imagined when we launched the expedition, the two guardians will compete for the final victory. We, the people, can stand beside the winner and celebrate the victory."
"That's right, we soldiers have no choice. Whoever is more powerful can stand on which side. Now we are the soldiers guarding the base." The soldiers easily accepted the matter of joining the new camp.
Lin Dongyun, who was sitting on the captain's throne, pretended to be sipping fragrant tea while using the official seal function to get a bird's eye view of the situation.
Looking at the fleet first, the first ship has light green lights shining on the deck. Looking closer, it turns out to be the Tangqiao soldiers from before.
How can you be kind to yourself so easily? Isn’t it too disrespectful?
Lin Dongyun curled his lips and tried to see through the merchant ship, and he was able to see through it. Apparently, the merchant ship acquiesced to its own facilities after the officers surrendered.
Go in and take a peek. Dozens of light blue lights are flashing and spreading into the cabin.
Lin Dongyun curled his lips, that officer was so stupid that he instantly turned his own color of light blue. Even when he was hooking up with the new recruits, it took him three months to turn them into a blue light.
Then I saw a big black light in the cabin!
I saw black light again, there were still so many!
Lin Dongyun suddenly realized that the black color represented the enemy, not hostility!
But it seems that I have seen a few people with black light in Zhangxia Village. Who are they? Could they be spies sent by Tangqiao Village?
While thinking about it, I discovered that as the officers with light blue light entered the black light, it must have been the officers who announced the order to surrender and defend, and the black light instantly turned into white.
Then a small number of people will convert to the green goodwill camp, and only occasionally a few will directly convert to the light blue camp of their own people.
Seeing this transformation process, Lin Dongyun nodded, this should be normal. The Tangqiao soldiers are much more disciplined than the Tangqiao officers.
Back to the bird's-eye view of the entire fleet, let's take another collective perspective. It can be seen through, which means that all the officers of the merchant ship have surrendered to themselves.
It can be clearly seen that as the blue-rayed officers boarded the merchant ship one by one, those officers who may have received the communication and had already turned green or blue also began to go to the cabin to give orders.
As for the soldiers in so many merchant ships, just like the soldiers on the first merchant ship, most of them instantly changed from black light to white light, a small part turned into green light, and a very few turned into blue light.
After such a bird's-eye view, Lin Dongyun nodded with satisfaction. This fleet of 30,000 soldiers was considered a force that he could control.
Thinking of this, Lin Dongyun suddenly felt funny.
Damn it, I am a guard at Zhangxia. In the entire Zhangxia garrison area, I can only control a new barracks of about 500 people. However, this group of invading Tangqiao soldiers gave me control of 30,000 people in an instant!
The title of the Commander-in-Chief is not worthy of his name. Instead, he should be the Commander-in-Chief of Tangqiao who holds the real power!
His eyes subconsciously turned to Zhangxia Village. The soldiers scattered around the barracks were all white, with a faint hint of green.
Just discovered that there were hundreds of green light spots at the location of the new barracks. Lin Dongyun couldn't help but zoom in closer. When he saw it, he was shocked, because these people with green light were actually his own escorts!
Including the two warrant officers who had always been red and black before, but immediately turned into white light after knowing that they were about to abdicate, like everyone else in the escort team, they also turned into green light!
Lin Dongyun touched his chin. It seems that these guards knew that they controlled all the authority in the Zhangxia garrison area and knew that they had no choice, so they were kind to them?
Turning his eyes towards the battalion command center, there was a large red and black light over there.
Lin Dongyun smiled. This phenomenon was normal. After all, he had asked Xiao Hei to take away their authority and trapped them in the command center. It would be strange if the officers in the Zhangxia garrison area were not hostile to him.
But it doesn’t matter, if they don’t obey, they will continue to be locked up.
After he has taken over the Tangqiao garrison area, if they are disobedient, he will simply let them sit on the bench. After all, he will already have someone who can give orders by then.
