This means that in Belgium, which is also an ally, but in the Asia Minor Peninsula, if the military dogs of the expeditionary force are stewed, then all Ottomans within a ten-mile radius will be thrown into concentration camps.
This is really not a fuss. If Rock lets it go, today the Expeditionary Force's military dogs will be eaten. Tomorrow, those people will dare to drive away the Expeditionary Force's military vehicles. The day after tomorrow, they will probably attack the Expeditionary Force's patrols.
Already.
Is there any royal method?
I really don’t understand the meaning of “occupying force”, do you? When the Germans arrested Belgians one after another and used them as coolies, why didn’t they see any resistance from those Belgians?
Roque directly rejected Albert I's request. On the day of the military court session, all the spectators in the gallery were soldiers from the expeditionary force, including Rayleigh's trainer Sydney.
Yes, Sydney is a female soldier.
"We saw the dog wandering around the street, sniffing here and there, looking interested in everything. Jamie said he was very hungry. We were all very hungry. I hadn't eaten in three days.
——That dog is really fat, weighing about fifty pounds. When we caught it, it didn’t resist at all. I think it was willing to be eaten by us. This is a gift from God to us.——" Adam, the principal criminal, said at the military court
He is still defending his actions, and he still does not know the serious consequences he will face.
"Mr. Judge, I think we are wasting time -" The person who sued these Belgians on behalf of the Expeditionary Force was Ted Beecher, the director of the Third Division of the Logistics Department of the Expeditionary Force. He is a serious practicing lawyer: "——Judge
Sir, you are also a soldier. Now the criminals are teasing your comrade about how fat he is. He weighs fifty pounds. They regard your comrade as a gift from God. To be honest, I want to shoot him right now.
I feel this is also the right given to me by God!”
"I didn't - I didn't mean that -" Adam's face turned pale, and his glib words were gone.
"Shut up, you can only speak when I ask you to speak!" The judge's name was Quentin Constance, who was also an expeditionary force officer.
"Mr. Kevin -" Adam asked for help from his lawyer Kevin Bulwer, who was appointed by the expeditionary force for Adam.
Sorry, Kevin Bulwer is also an expeditionary force officer.
What Adam didn't expect was that Kevin Bulwer seemed to have not heard Adam's request for help and was discussing something with his assistant.
They were probably discussing what to eat for lunch.
"Raleigh is an excellent military dog. He is energetic, friendly, professional and strong. In Constantinople, Raleigh found two booby traps and saved his comrades in Flanders.
, Reilly worked continuously for a day and a night, and was so tired that the soles of his feet were bruised and bleeding in the arms of the beautiful trainer Xue Li, but Reilly never screamed once - in the army, Reilly is everyone's good friend and good brother.
, all of us like it very much - just like a certain bastard said just now, even if he was captured by those bastards, Rayleigh did not resist, it did not know that the people it saved would actually eat it cruelly -
"When Ted Beecher complained, Sydney's crying could be heard in the gallery. Two female soldiers, one on the left and one on the right, kept comforting Sydney. All the expedition officers and soldiers in the gallery looked at Adam with disgust.
Adam lowered his head expressionlessly, showing no reflection, no repentance, and no sadness.
"Defendant, do you have anything to say?" Quentin looked at Adam with cold eyes.
"I-I can compensate-" Adam stammered. He still hasn't understood that it's just a dog.
"The value of military dogs is immeasurable. It's not a question of how much money they have. Although they can't speak, they are our comrades-in-arms and our relatives. You can compensate for the money, but how can you compensate for the emotional harm to us?"
Ted is chasing after him, and the expeditionary force is not short of money. If money can measure life, then there will be many people willing to pay to let Adam die.
"According to Order No. 3 issued by the Expeditionary Force in September 1913, all attacks on the Expeditionary Force can be treated as hostile acts. The defendant not only attacked our comrade-in-arms, but also brutally ate him, which was inhumane and inhumane.
It's inhumane. I ask the court to sentence the criminal to death to serve as a warning to others." Ted demanded not only the death penalty for Adam, but also the death of everyone involved. No one should be left behind.
"No, please don't do this. It's just a dog. Why don't we pay for it?" Adam was like chaff, and only then did he realize the seriousness of the consequences.
"Kevin, do you have anything to say?" Quentin asked Adam's lawyer.
All eyes were focused on Kevin, who had remained silent from the beginning of the court session until now.
Kevin coughed a few times and pretended to pick up the unopened file in front of him. He accidentally saw Xue Li with red eyes.
"Your Honor, I have nothing to say." Kevin simply said.
There were actually scattered people in the court applauding.
"The court is adjourned now——" Quentin did not pronounce the verdict in court.
Everyone else left, leaving only Quentin, Ted, and Kevin.
"Ted, it's impossible to sentence them to death. The most they can do is exile and imprisonment. But don't worry, they can't get out of prison." Quentin waited for the door to close before speaking.
"It doesn't matter what happens to these people. The key is to appease our officers and soldiers. This result will definitely not satisfy them." Ted also knew that the result might not be satisfactory, but he still had to maintain the proper attitude.
"I have received no less than ten calls from yesterday to now. Many people are paying attention to the final verdict. Even the French government is paying attention. The Ministry of War requires us to handle it properly without damaging the relationship between the coalition forces. What the hell can we do?
"Quentin can't help it. Miss Sydney is indeed very pitiful, but she takes the overall situation into consideration——
hetui!
This reason really cannot be explained.
"The principal culprit will be shot, and the accomplices will be exiled. Once the news is over, you can find any reason to deal with it." Kevin was ruthless, no wonder he didn't say a word just now.
"Shoot four people for a dog--" Quentin's head was as big as a bucket. In order to satisfy their appetites, several people on the dog day made such a big fuss. Quentin really wanted to kill someone.
Before Kevin and Ted could speak, several gunshots were suddenly heard outside the court.
"What's going on?" Quentin said with a frosty look on his face.
"Sydney brought a gun. I just met Adam in the corridor—" the military policeman who temporarily acted as a bailiff hesitated.
The corridor has become a mess.
This was a court error. No one noticed that Sydney was carrying a gun during the trial.
In fact, almost all expeditionary officers and soldiers carry pistols with them on the battlefield, and it was the same in the court just now. Almost everyone carried guns, including Quentin, Kevin, and Ted.
When Adam was taken out of the court, when he saw Sydney, he subconsciously took a second look.
This cannot be blamed on Adam, the female soldiers in uniform——
Anyone who sees it will subconsciously take a few more glances, not to mention that Sydney is very beautiful, plus the uniform is a bonus——
Xue Li didn't say anything, she came directly in front of Adam, drew her gun and shot him. She knocked Adam to the ground and fired a few more shots.
By the time the military policeman came to his senses and took back Sydney's gun, Adam was already dead on the spot.
what to do?
Kevin and Ted are both watching Quentin.
Look at what I'm doing, I don't know what to do.
Quentin made the most correct decision and reported the matter to Rock.
Albert I did not come to Roque this time, because even a dog Roque can go to war, and now that Raleigh's trainer has killed someone, there is no hope that the military court will enforce the law impartially.
Chief of General Staff Henry Wilson had his own opinions on this matter. Although he also insisted on severely punishing the 42 Belgians, he also demanded that Sydney be dealt with seriously.
"How to deal with it?" Rock gave Henry Wilson a chance.
"Dismissal from the military and deported to southern Africa." Henry Wilson felt that this punishment was already very light.
"Henry, do you know that in Belgium, our precision shooters usually do not kill the German soldiers with one shot, but injure the German soldiers in open areas and lure the German soldiers to rescue people, so that the number of dead and wounded German soldiers will increase.
"More -" Rock told Henry Wilson a story, trying to make Henry Wilson understand the feelings between soldiers: "-the German soldiers knew that our precision shooters were taking aim, and knew that they would be killed directly if they broke out of the bunker, but
The German soldiers still will not give up on their comrades, and they will risk their own lives and fly to the flames. In order to save a comrade, sometimes more than a dozen people will die. Why? Is it worth it?"
Henry Wilson didn't speak. He was not from a noble family, but had climbed up from the bottom. Henry Wilson had not felt this kind of emotion for a long time.
"From the standpoint of the German army, our precision shooters are despicable. I admit that they are indeed despicable. All behaviors that take advantage of human weaknesses are despicable, but this can cause greater damage and kill one more German soldier. Our people
There will be one less person killed, so this is correct on the battlefield -" Roque doesn't care whether he is right or wrong, the German precision shooters did the same thing.
"The same goes for Sydney. Her best friend was killed in a cruel way. To you and me, Rayleigh is just a dog and an ordinary soldier. But to Sydney, Rayleigh is hers."
Family is a part of her life." Roque made it clear that expulsion is impossible, and deportation is impossible. At most, she will suffer a serious mental shock and need to recuperate for a period of time.
Of course, if Sydney wants to retire, that's another situation.
Military dogs or police dogs have a very special relationship with their handlers. Military dogs and police dogs live with their handlers when they are very young, train together, and develop relationships. After military dogs or police dogs retire, they are usually adopted by their handlers.
The relationship with the trainer is really like a family member, so Rock is not surprised at all by Sydney's behavior. He treats others as his own. If someone stews the little ears, Rock will kill him.
