Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 18: got rich

It didn't take long for the bank door to be opened from the outside, and Charlie stepped over several corpses on the stairs leading to the door, and stopped in front of Lieutenant Siller.

"Second Lieutenant Siller, I'm Lieutenant Charlie Close. I'm glad to see you stick to it until now." Charlie took the initiative to give a military salute and said to the second lieutenant.

Schiller also saluted, and then he smiled bitterly: "If you guys were a little bit later, we might not be able to hold on. Our ammunition is exhausted and we are short of food and water."

"Then where are you going next? I suggest you go to the Wangli Military Academy with me, which should not have been captured by thugs." Charlie suggested.

"I am very willing to follow your advice, Your Excellency Lieutenant, but I am afraid the bank manager will not allow us to leave like this." As he spoke, he glanced at the bank behind him and said dissatisfiedly: "That annoying manager is relying on his hands. Holding the assets of the great nobles and bossing us around, if we hadn’t chased away the mob in time, he would have been divided up by the mob along with his pile of gold, silver and jewelry!”

"Gold and silver jewelry?" Charlie's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he asked, "What gold and silver jewelry, do you mean the assets stored here by the great nobles?"

"Yes." Siller nodded, he was a little surprised why Charlie suddenly looked expectant, but he still explained to Charlie: "The manager said this, but who knows if it's true, which Will the great nobles deposit their assets in this small bank?"

Charlie didn't listen to what he said later, and his attention was all on gold and silver jewelry - Charlie is not only short of soldiers, but also short of money. Isn't the gold and silver jewelry in the manager's hands a wealth bestowed on him by God? Anyway, it's so chaotic here, even if he robbed all the wealth, no one would know.

Thinking of this, Charlie made up his mind to swallow the wealth, but he did not show enthusiasm, he said to Sear: "Second Lieutenant Seale, go and count the remaining soldiers in the bank, and follow me later. Get out of here together and I'll deal with the bank manager."

"Understood, sir!" Lieutenant Siller subconsciously put Charlie in the leadership position and replied, in fact, Charlie's rank is one level higher than him, and in this special case, he can also take over the leadership of the two teams.

Seeler turned to leave, and Charlie also rushed into the bank with his company of soldiers. After they entered the bank, Seeler was gathering the soldiers, and the well-dressed bank manager also took the initiative to greet him.

"Your Excellency Lieutenant, how did you get separated from the main force?"

As soon as he came up, he asked in a questioning tone. As he moved, the strong scent of perfume rushed into Charlie's nose, causing him to subconsciously frown. Charlie took a step back, first looked around at the manager in front of him, and then asked, "This gentleman, who are you?"

"I'm Yog Cassidy, the manager of this bank. Your Excellency Lieutenant, please answer my question."

Charlie had no intention of talking nonsense with him. He turned to Lieutenant Siller, who was counting the number of people. The latter quickly completed the task Charlie gave him and walked over quickly. He glanced at the manager who was standing beside him. "Sir, including me, there are still 34 people who can fight."

As soon as he finished speaking, the system reminded Charlie again: [34 soldiers who can be replenished have been detected, the fee for the first replenishment can be waived, whether to replenish. 】

[System units that are attrition in combat can be replenished by indigenous soldiers who obey their hosts. The cost of replenishment depends on the number of replenishers. Note: In friendly territory, disaffected units can be replenished on their own without spending money if they have a sufficient number of native soldiers. 】

"Replenish."

Charlie said silently in his heart, and then, the soldiers in the bank seemed to have had a shot in the arm. All of them held their heads high. Although the tiredness on their faces still existed, the temperament of the whole person came from the inside. Earth-shaking changes have taken place outside.

This change, even the bank manager and other staff have seen some clues.

After a few seconds, the voice of the system in my head sounded again:

[The first replenishment has been completed, current system unit: 1st Rifle Company (120 people)]

Charlie nodded with satisfaction, then he looked dangerously at the bank manager standing beside him, who was still surprised by the sudden change of the soldiers, and seemed to sense the aggressive gaze from Charlie, he subconsciously Turned his head over.

"Your Excellency Lieutenant, why are you looking at me like this?" He took a step back, feeling a little unease in his heart for some reason.

Charlie didn't speak. Since the bank is full of soldiers loyal to him now, there is no need for him to talk nonsense with the manager who is in the way. So, following his order, the soldiers behind him stepped forward to surround and control the manager and other staff.

"Lieutenant Cross, what are you doing?"

He looked at the soldiers who suddenly attacked in astonishment and questioned Charlie. Charlie didn't answer his plan. He only made a gesture to the soldiers, who then escorted the manager and staff to the corner. The gunshots sounded, and the soldiers with the smell of gunpowder came back.

Having experienced killing prisoners and watching Captain Doyle die in front of him, Charlie has become a little numb to the matter of killing, and he has no hesitation in giving orders to execute managers and staff. A package with gold and silver jewelry behind the counter.

He walked to the pile of wealth, opened one of the bags with his own hands, and the jewels stacked in it immediately appeared in his sight. No matter what era it is placed in, it can make him rich.

[Convertible assets detected, whether to convert. 】

The cold voice of the system pulled him back from the trance to reality.

"Convert."

Charlie chose to switch without hesitation. In the next second, he only felt a white light flash in front of him. After the white light disappeared, the bags in front of him all collapsed, and the funds in the system jumped from 2000 in an instant. Go to 10500.

In just a few seconds, his funds increased by 8,500 gold coins!

This made Charlie feel that robbery was the fastest way to get rich. At the same time, he also knew very well that this kind of good thing was hard to come by, and more than 10,000 gold coins seemed to be a lot. If he used all of it to recruit musketeers, he would at most Only ten teams could be recruited—the second brigade was full of 8,000 to 9,000 soldiers, and they couldn’t even splash a single wave in the huge city of Ankerton. What could the ten teams of musketeers he recruited do?
