Orc Tyrant
Chapter 921: Heroes and cowards
"In recent days, Ouke has successively launched large-scale attacks on our military positions along the more than two hundred kilometers of the Skasen River. The momentum is huge and rare in the past years!"
Amid the crackling sound, Ben Lier in full costume was surrounded by spotlights and spotlights. Countless newspapers and journalists surrounded the steps, and behind Ben Lier was the house of the military town of Dunwich. door.
With Ben Lier attending the press conference, in addition to his inner defender, there were also several important generals, and Mountbatten "coincidentally" was among them.
"But under the brave battles of our soldiers, Oak’s offensive has been repeatedly shattered since the 14th, and then the offensive has intensified. By the 19th, Oak’s main force launched a full-line offensive, and millions of beasts tried to cross the river forcibly. Our army hit the head once again, floating corpses for hundreds of miles!"
Ben Lilton paused and tilted his body slightly to the right to make himself look more like inspecting the battle on the battlefield instead of being interviewed.
"According to incomplete statistics, in the five-day battle, our army killed 2.39 million enemy troops, seized more than 600,000 tons of various equipment and materials, and our army suffered casualties...600 people!"
For a while, all the voices disappeared, and the scene was silent.
More than ten seconds later, a male reporter wearing a hat asked cautiously:
"General, I... I heard you right?"
"Although I haven't been to college, when I was in elementary school, I often took the first place in my class in math."
After a while, Ben Lier's witty answer won a round of applause.
"Victory is because we have to win."
After pressing his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet, Ben Lil's expression suddenly became heavy.
"We must win, because behind is the motherland and the people! The tragedy of Cardillon can never be staged again. Whenever I think of that moment, I deeply feel that I should be sent to a military court!"
The reporters immediately took out their notebooks and began to record the confession of the hero of the Republic.
Ben Lier sighed with tears in his eyes.
"We are soldiers, but soldiers who cannot protect the people. What's the point! We can die too! We can sacrifice! We can't fail again! It is this spirit that inspires us to fight, and it is also the inferior beasts that cannot The reason for defeating us! So every day I remind myself, Ben Lier, have you neglected your duty?"
"General! You are not negligent!"
A middle-aged woman suddenly squeezed into the crowd, and then tightly squeezed Ben Lier's hand. Just as the inner guard behind him was about to come forward, he was stopped by Ben Lier's eyes.
"General! We are refugees from Arkham. My son is fighting under your command. We believe that one day you will take us back to our hometown!"
"Ashamed, ashamed..."
Ben Lier shook the woman's palm lightly for a while, then several military police squeezed in and took the woman away.
"Well, now is the time for the media to speak."
As soon as a nearby official spoke, a beautiful female reporter with long blond hair asked first:
"General Lier, I am a special correspondent for the Financial Times. Do you know the reason for Oak's sudden large-scale offensive? Do they have some strategic purpose?"
Ben Lier smiled politely, and then said in a deep voice:
"According to what I know about Oak, they are not very purposeful creatures. We are currently studying whether they organized a farce spontaneously or were oppressed by ruthless bosses to die."
"General, I am a reporter from the National Defense Daily."
Another sturdy man came up and took the position of the female reporter.
He also saluted Ben Lier, and Ben Lier paid one back.
"I would like to ask you, why are the casualties in this battle so low? How did the military catch the signal of Ok to launch an attack?"
"Sir, you are asking for military secrets."
Ben Lier shook his finger.
"But I can answer your first question, because Oak crosses the river without preparation. Most of them are so stupid that they can't even swim."
"In other words, most of Ouke drowned?"
"indeed."
"So how are the numbers of annihilation counted?"
"Yes, according to the statistics of our inland river fleet, although Oak's corpse looks huge, it unexpectedly becomes very light in the water. It is not difficult to count the floating corpses on the water."
Soon the third reporter came up.
"General, I'm a reporter for the Phillips State Morning Post. May I ask whether it was the pale tyrant who initiated this attack?"
"There is no sign that the beast has come to the front of Cardillon."
"Does the military know about the chief Okker who led this attack?"
"Mr."
Ben Lier smiled and turned around and took something from the guard behind him.
With a cry, as the admiral unwrapped the silk cloth covering the thing, the tattered battle flag full of bullet holes rose with the wind.
Its background color is the same dark green as Ouke's skin, and it looks very shabby. It is covered with dried blood and black marks after being eroded by flames, but the red and black war patterns in it are still conspicuous.
It was a pattern of Oke's head split in the middle, and Oke seemed to be still laughing.
"This is the battle flag we seized on the battlefield. It belongs to Okker's Skullscraper! As we all know, only warlords wear the battle flag with them. This is the spoils captured by our snipers after destroying a brutal behemoth!"
When this statement came out, it was tantamount to dropping a heavy bomb into the water, and everyone was in an uproar.
"General! Does it mean that our army killed an enemy warlord!?"
"General! Where is the body?"
"General..."
For a time, the scene became a little chaotic.
It's no wonder that these reporters were too excited, but since the Benedict Empire started the war with Ouke, only Duke Yuhikin has eliminated the warlord-level Ouke leader on the battlefield, and there is only one helmet as proof.
This is also something that the New California Republic has always been worried about.
"All the Ministry of National Defense will be announced in the near future."
Ben Lier finished speaking and turned around and walked up the stairs. The reporters quickly tried to catch up, but they were immediately stopped by the guards.
However, at the moment when the complacent general shook his cloak and turned away, the melancholy expression of another face that was hidden by the shadows was incompatible with the warm atmosphere of victory.
And this scene happened to be captured by a reporter with a camera.
"Heroes and Cowards"
This is what people call this photo.
In the battle of Kuiyuanling, the two independent divisions exhausted their forces, and only the commander Mountbatten escaped alone.
Some people accused him of being unfavorable in blocking, others accused him of being greedy for life and fear of death, and some even accused him of fearing the enemy during an entire thunderstorm. He squatted in mud town for two weeks and sat and watched the Second Army in the U.S. The German city was destroyed.
There are actually many people who know the truth, but Mountbatten has never let anyone defend himself.
