It's better to conquer them than to command the steel torrent

Chapter 126｜Justice and Execution

Are you still being tough?

Shang Ke turned around thoughtfully and said, "Let Sergeant Mira come over and listen to this guy's lies."

After a while, a tall female sergeant with big eyes came trotting over.

She stood at attention and saluted, "Mr. Advisor, what are your instructions?"

Shang Ke put his right hand on the holster and said calmly: "This guy is not honest and doesn't admit to lying. Test him."

So Mira asked directly: "Hey, answer me truthfully, what illegal activities did you do with this shop owner, and what happened to the extra food?"

A flash of panic flashed across Sheriff Shandor's eyes, but he righteously rejected the request: "What are you doing? This is questioning the reputation of the Wang family police!"

This answer is quite clever and can be used to delay time. It seems like an answer but in fact it is just fooling people.

"Don't talk nonsense, answer me directly, Mr. Sheriff." Mira frowned.

"Damn it! I've had enough! You actually listened to them and doubted me..."

Seeing that Shandor was still avoiding the topic, Shang Ke was not going to tolerate him and directly ordered several soldiers to come forward and beat him up.

Sheriff Shandor was very stubborn and refused to give a direct answer until he was beaten black and blue.

"No! Of course I didn't!"

Hearing this, Mira angrily reported to Shang Ke: "Mr. Consultant, I can only roughly confirm that he is lying."

The second type of warriors who have the ability to communicate telepathically can also distinguish between truth and lies, but experienced people will try to digress to delay time.

The characteristic of this additional ability is that the more and longer the other party's answer is, the easier it is to identify. Answers of two or three sentences have an almost 99% identification accuracy rate.

Therefore, even after being beaten up, Sheriff Sandor still acted petty, which made Mira very unhappy.

Shang Ke didn't care. He looked at the indignant citizens and announced loudly to them in Hungarian: "Citizens, this guy has seriously neglected his duties and disgraced the reputation of the royal police. Now is a critical moment. Such behavior is unforgivable and aggravated. Therefore...shoot him!"

"kill him!"

"Guys like that don't deserve to wear uniforms!"

"Worms!"

The long-accumulated emotions suddenly erupted and the citizens cheered.

However, Sandor still clamored for doubt.

"You have no right to judge! Damn it! Let me go! What right do you have to judge me?!"

"Why? Budapest has been under full martial law since noon today, so..." Shang Ke smiled slightly and said to the military police sergeant beside him, "I suggest executing him."

The military police sergeant couldn't help laughing and saluted, saying, "How can this be called advice? This is simply encouragement."

Then, two gendarmes stripped off Sandor's uniform, leaving only the white shirt underneath, and forced him to kneel down.

Ignoring his pleas for mercy, the other man pulled out a pistol, walked up behind him, pointed it at the back of his head and pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

A fair execution! Shang Ke looked at the red and white things flying on the wall and felt refreshed.

He raised his hand and clenched his fist before the crowd, declaring, "The enemy is at the gates of the city. The military and civilians must unite as one. The orders of the city defense headquarters must be carried out absolutely. If there are any of these parasites, kill them one by one. If there are two, kill them both. There will be no leniency!"

Then he ordered the soldiers to hang Sandor's body upside down on a nearby tree and bury it after it stinked.

Shang Ke knew very well how much harm such a termite could bring. For Huns, the country was in crisis and they should implement ruthless means to kill any villain without mercy. Only by unity could they defend against external insults.

A strong fortress is often breached from the inside, and the slightest negligence may lead to unpredictable chain reactions.

Sandor may just be a selfish guy who abuses his power for personal gain, and he may not seem to be harmful, but there is a saying that goes - when you find one cockroach, there are actually a hundred in the whole house!

Legend has it that Constantinople fell because the Byzantine defenders forgot to lock the Kokpota Gate, and Shank did not want Budapest to be vulnerable to the enemy.

This reminded him of what happened a few days ago.

Wasn't the Second Bureau of the General Staff investigating suspicious radio signals? Did they find anything?
He wanted to find Sabo-Monica to ask for details, but it was too late.

afternoon.

The sky darkened, and the dense dark clouds were so thick that they seemed to be about to condense into countless water droplets at any time.

Not long after, the royal guards, led by Shang, arrived in the northern part of Perth.

After discussions with Major General Ratz-Jene, the Royal Guard was deployed to the southwest of the Business School to serve as the elite mobile force in the defense zone.

"I personally prefer active defense, and when the time is right, decisively implement tactical counterattacks." Shang Ke folded his arms and looked at the map.

"Very good! Purely rigid defense is very inefficient, Colonel Shang. I believe the Royal Guard will perform well under your command." Latz-Yene agreed.

"What a pity! It would be great if there were two or three hundred more people in the Clackap neighborhood," said a staff officer regretfully.

In fact, as the defender, the number of Budapest defenders was not very sufficient. Various buildings in the metropolis were densely arranged, and the width (capacity) of the battlefield was in a sense higher than that of the plain.

Because of this, the dispersed deployment of more than 40,000 people cannot achieve a very high troop density and can only be said to be at a passing level.

Shang Ke’s suggestion was to form a large number of close combat patrols and carry out flexible and mobile operations with a fearless spirit.

Each regiment was to form five close combat patrols, essentially a reinforced platoon of about fifty men.

The close combat patrol team is not large in scale, but it is equipped with a large number of weapons and equipment such as Danuvia submachine guns, Winchester hunting rifles, light machine guns, blasting tubes, mines, anti-tank magnetic bombs, etc.

Reinforced concrete or granite buildings act as solid support points, providing fire support and blocking off blocks, while teams roam around, waiting for opportunities to strike, using tactics such as infiltration, night raids, ambushes, sniping, and poisoning to attack the enemy.

If the enemy is stationed, harass them; if the enemy is tired, launch a surprise attack; if the enemy is pursuing, retreat.

If we use future games as a vivid analogy, the melee patrol is the roaming jungler, and the solid support point is the defense tower!
What troubled Shang was that the Budapest defenders were not equipped with enough submachine guns.

The Danuvia submachine gun produced by Hungary also belongs to the category of interwar submachine guns. Although it has good performance, it uses milling technology, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive to manufacture, and its production volume is not large.

"Have you searched every gun store in town? Even every armory?" Shang Ke couldn't help but complain, "Submachine guns should be made using stamping technology. They can be produced in large quantities."

For example, the Sten, PPSh, Grease Gun, etc. are all stamping process submachine guns with the characteristics of the war period.

However, if the stamping process submachine guns were practiced early on, would it have been a benefit to the Ivan Rus people?
Thousands and thousands of gray beasts armed with submachine guns... are still a bit troublesome.
