Hammer 40k: Far East Storm
Chapter 226: Perseverance
Victoria thought for a while. In fact, she just memorized the useful information she heard, and then she didn't think about it for even a second. (_)
For the 19-year-old Victoria, things couldn't be simpler. She couldn't withdraw. Even if everyone withdrew from the golden field, she had to stay alone.
It's not that the ancient captain's thoughts were at work. It is said that in ancient times, the captain had to be responsible for his sinking ship. So when the "abandon ship" order was issued, other sailors on the warship could withdraw without any burden, but the captain had to stay on the ship and sink with the ship.
Of course, this is not a kind of coercion, but just a noble act. Today's navy still maintains such a tradition. It is said that few captains leave their sinking ships.
Victoria couldn't understand this kind of nobility at all. She sneered at this behavior from the bottom of her heart. This kind of stupid nobility could only make her feel ridiculous. There was no other feeling. People who did this kind of behavior couldn't make her feel respectful at all.
But now she is likely to do something that makes her feel absurd. Whenever she thinks of this possibility, she will look up to the sky and sigh at the wonder of fate, which actually directed such an absurd drama, and then bury her head deep in the quilt, laugh crazily with her head covered, and then continue to cry for the last time.
Alexandrina Victoria is a star from the glorious Victoria family. Even in the Victoria family with many talents, she can be regarded as a rare talent in the family. The people of the Victoria family enjoy a superior life that ordinary citizens of the empire can hardly imagine. At the same time, they also bear elite education that ordinary people can hardly bear. The teenagers of the Victoria family have no childhood. When other children are still running wildly in the streets and alleys, playing various games happily, the children of the Victoria family are carrying out cramming education, seizing every second, the courses are never interrupted, and there is no weekend rest.
Alexandrina Victoria performed very well in the family, and then the family naturally hopes that she can go to a higher place, and then use her talents to obtain more real power and resources, and contribute better to the family. But although the Victoria family is a high-ranking noble family, the empire is not his Victoria family, and the God Emperor is not named Victoria. If she wants to let the outstanding Alexandrina reach the top of the empire and let her brilliance blind the old dogs in the House of Nobles, she still needs to go through a lot of formalities.
Alexandrina Victoria originally came to the Golden Plains to serve as the governor for this reason. If everything goes well, then Alexandrina only needs to do a good job in internal affairs, cooperate with old General Andreevich, and then wait for a victory with peace of mind. Naturally, she can leave this position and return to the solar system as a war hero.
This is a very reasonable speculation, because most of the Eldar people live in their arks, and few Eldar people live on natural planets like humans. Eldar people do not need land. Although Eldar people and humans always have conflicts, they are only border conflicts. Eldar people and humans rarely have large-scale, long-term wars, because the two sides do not have too serious conflicts of interest.
I thought it was a small-scale war. Even if the war expanded, it would only take one or two years. The Empire would naturally win. The Eldar would withdraw after a few jumps and no longer interested. So the family put the best descendants of the family on the golden plains with peace of mind. Who knew that they would encounter such a result now? Not only did the war not win easily, but it was also about to face an unprecedented painful defeat.
At this time, even if everyone could retreat, only Victoria could not retreat. This had nothing to do with her thoughts. It was just because she had the glorious surname of Victoria, so she could not let a trace of stain be stained on this glorious surname.
Moreover, even if she retreated with the old general, could she survive? No, this was impossible. The bureaucrats needed someone to come out and take responsibility for such a tragic defeat, a living person. If she died on the battlefield, the bureaucrats would probably be kind, but if she went back alive, she didn't know what kind of horror was waiting for her. Just think about it and you will know that you can't retreat.
For Alexandrina now, it's either victory or death. So she can't fail, because she doesn't want to die yet.
"Old General, how did you determine that there are traitors in the empire, and it's not the credit of the Eldar prophets," Victoria asked frankly: "I know that the Eldar prophets can see the future, maybe those prophets found this place in some way."
"No, it doesn't seem like that. I've fought with the Eldar. Although the two are very similar, they are different."
Victoria smiled, and the girl asked: "Is it your subtle and indescribable feeling about the battle?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, old general. I want to tell you that no matter what, even if you go back with the army, you will be a loser. You will be arrested and then responsible for the failure of this war. You simply There is no chance to clean up the so-called traitor, so retreating is meaningless. We might as well continue to hold on. Neither the family nor the empire will just sit back and watch the defeat. We will have reinforcements, so we just need to hold on."
"I am more familiar with this starry sky than you. I know our troop configuration even with my eyes closed. I tell you once again that we failed completely. In retrospect, the Spirit Race people spent a long time setting up this trap. We All the troops are scattered on the battlefields of the three worlds. In a short period of time, we have no place to mobilize troops to assist here. That's why I said that when the Eldar people set foot on the land of the golden field, our Failure is already doomed. The enemy has already conquered the general. There is no point in continuing the chess game. If we evacuate decisively, we can still save millions of lives and countless munitions. The situation is difficult. At this time, we must prepare for Considering the future of the empire." Andrejevich said with confidence: "Besides, as long as there are troops loyal to me, I believe those people will not touch me easily. I also have my own friends in the military. If I can buy myself time, I believe it only takes a week to find the traitor."
"So what happens after this?" Victoria asked, "Have you made any plans for the future?"
"What else could I have planned? Of course I am responsible for it," Andreevich said frankly: "I can't escape the blame for such a major failure. Apart from the execution ground, where else can I go? ?”
"That's it. The old general is willing to sacrifice everything for the empire, including his life and his own reputation. He is so noble and truly admirable."
"I don't need your admiration, I just need your cooperation, Victoria, you should know that we have no choice, we must be like this at this time, because we are already sinners at this moment, even if we die ten thousand times, we can't redeem ourselves. All we can do now is to use all our strength, at all costs, to consider the empire and reduce losses. "
"No, we still have a choice. We can choose to stick to it. I firmly believe that we can keep the golden field."
"Our strength is insufficient! We cannot withstand the attack of the Eldar without rescue."
"The God Emperor will protect me and wait." Victoria said: "Then let me ask you one last time, do you insist on evacuating!?"
"Yes, I insist!"
In an instant, Victoria made a decision. She could not retreat, she could only make a big gamble! Victory means gaining everything, and failure means losing her life. At this time, she has no way out and can only take a gamble.
"Then this is all I can do. I'm sorry, I'm here to execute you for the crime of deserting!" With that said, Victoria lifted her long skirt, revealing the long and beautiful legs under her skirt that made countless men crazy. and white lace stockings, and just on the outside of her thigh, there was a lady's pistol strapped to her thigh. The girl decisively pulled out the pistol from her thigh and pressed it against the old general's forehead.
At this time, Andreevich was still stunned. He didn't expect that the girl would suddenly do this and pull out the gun? why is that?
There were also people in the room who reacted quickly and quickly drew their guns. No matter what was about to happen, they were ready to stop it, but they ran out of guns.
In the room at this time, only the girl had a weapon under her skirt, while the weapons worn by others had long been given to the waiter.
"To be honest, for a moment, I had a little admiration for you in my heart, and then I hated you," the girl whispered in a voice that only two people could hear: "Old guy, don't block other people's efforts to survive. Road! I don’t want to die with you yet!”
Then gunfire rang out!
Andreevich's skull was completely overturned, and the top of his forehead was like a lid being opened. Things of various colors splashed all over the floor. The old man fell vertically in a hard posture, knowing that The old man died without closing his eyes.
"Now, anyone who dares to say retreat is dead!" Victoria looked at the other silent people in the room and said sternly: "From now on, anyone who dares to mention the word retreat must die. ! We must stick to the golden field and win at all costs! The holy emperor will protect us!
