The fiefdom increases by 1 soldier in 1 second, and the empress kneels down and begs not to rebel

"Sir! Something bad has happened!"

The messenger who was running hurriedly towards Factory No. 3 bumped into Davis and his group who had just run out of the factory at the door.

The messenger didn't even have time to catch his breath before he hurriedly said, "There's a rout in the army!"

Davis's already gloomy face turned red upon hearing the news. Anger rushed straight to his brain, and Davis' whole body began to tremble with anger.

"Damn Tachino! The coward!!!"

"I should kill you!!!"

More than ten minutes ago, several officers came to the command room anxiously. They were there to confirm whether they really wanted to withdraw. After listening to their story, Davis' eyes went dark and he was almost driven crazy by Tachino's behavior. He never expected that Tachino, who kept saying that he wanted to go into battle and kill the enemy, would actually issue a false military order at this time. Not only did he have to be a coward, but he also had to drag more people to be cowards with him.

Without any hesitation, Davis immediately ordered Tachino to be captured and executed, and at the same time he had to immediately stabilize the morale of the army. He knew that in this battlefield where his side was already at a disadvantage, this "retreat" order might very likely shake the will of some soldiers.

After all, times have changed since the past. Strictly speaking, these soldiers in the military factory are workers who were temporarily reorganized into the army. Although they were once soldiers, it is not easy for them who have retired from the battlefield to go into battle and kill the enemy at this time. Once they are really shaken by this false news, perhaps some soldiers will really be afraid of the enemy and choose to flee.

For this reason, after the officers left, Davis realized that the situation might become serious, so he quickly took everyone out of Factory No. 3 and planned to go to the front line to command the battle in person. At the same time, this move would also stabilize the soldiers' mentality.

But in the end, what Davis was worried about still happened. At this moment, under the report of the messenger, Davis looked back while cursing.

The rout had really begun.

The soldiers on the front line were still fighting hard with the enemy, but those at the back had already begun to flee for their lives. Even if there were only a few hundred people fleeing, their actions would quickly influence the will of others.

What's more, in the current extremely dangerous environment, the escape will often become extremely bad or even out of control.

Just like at this moment, except for those who had already fled in the rear, the soldiers who were rushing to the front line also gradually began to flee. Like wild beasts that were completely driven mad, the fleeing soldiers no longer listened to the urgent shouts of the officers, and even ignored the threats of killing the deserters.

The taut string is difficult to repair after it breaks. The strength of the enemy has brought tremendous pressure like a mountain to the soldiers, but their duties as soldiers force them to continue fighting. However, Tachino's highly inflammatory remarks gave the soldiers an excuse to escape.

Therefore, the desire for life finally overwhelmed everything at the last moment, and they instinctively followed the other fleeing soldiers.

After all, if others can leave, why can't I?

One led two, two led ten, and ten led hundreds of people. The rout became more and more intense. Some radical officers even opened fire but could not stop the soldiers from fleeing. Later, even some officers who were not strong-willed enough also fled.

Davis, standing at the gate of Factory No. 3, stood on the ground in a daze. The officers beside him were chasing and yelling at the deserters, because the rout had spread here.

In all, in less than half an hour, the soldiers who should have fought bravely have almost become cowardly deserters.

Davis's face, which was originally full of anger, no longer looked angry. He had been forced to accept the result.

Such a large-scale rout could not be stopped. Even killing the leader of the rout did not help. The soldiers had already lost their will to fight.

"Sir! We can't stop them! Too many people have escaped." The officers shouted to Davis anxiously.

Davis, who accepted the result, was no longer angry. He was already disheartened and said:

"Don't stop them. If they want to leave, let them go."

The officers were speechless in response to this, because they could not stop the enemy. This defense battle had come to an end, but it ended in such a humiliating way. It made people feel angry and helpless, but more than that, they felt deep despair.

"Are any of you leaving?"

At this time, Davis looked at the people around him and suddenly asked, and then he added:

"You have been able to hold out until now, which is enough to prove your courage. The rout cannot be stopped. Continuing the fight will only increase casualties."

"If anyone wants to leave, they can leave now."

There was silence, but soon, someone in the crowd turned and left without saying a word. The officer who escaped had a face full of shame, but as Davis said, the rout had already occurred, so fighting the enemy again would be a waste of life, and he did not want to die here yet.

Davis looked at the crowd in silence. No one in the crowd blamed the officer who escaped, because right after him, several other people left in silence.

The sounds of artillery fire and gunfire continued to spread in the air, getting closer and closer to Factory No. 3. Even the sound of horse hooves and the roar of the Yan Army had reached here.

Davis turned his head and looked ahead, and saw that the enemy cavalry were indeed coming towards him with guns raised, so he quickly ran to a messenger who was leaving and grabbed him.

The soldier was so ashamed that he didn't even dare to raise his head. He just whispered: "Sir... I..."

Before he finished speaking, Davis took the gun from his hand cleanly and said:

"If I leave, I won't need weapons, and I need weapons."

The soldier was stunned for a moment, then he raised his head and turned to look at Davis, only to see a determined face.

"Yes, sir!" Almost instantly, the soldier's eyes turned red. After answering for the last time, he quickly left.

Davis took a deep breath and looked at the remaining twenty or thirty soldiers and officers beside him and said:

"You all decided not to leave?"

"Yes, sir!" they answered in unison.

Davis looked at their faces one by one, then raised his gun and said, "Okay! Hold your weapons."

"The pride of the Golts, let us prove it!"

"Follow me!! Let's go and take care of those damn guys!" With a roar, Davis led them towards the battlefield.

-

A few "click" sounds.

On the main road east of the military factory, Tachino took the lead, riding his galloping horse on the road.

He turned his head and saw the fleeing soldiers swarming towards him. Although he knew he was not out of danger yet, Tachino really wanted to laugh out loud at this moment.

After all, there is nothing more joyful than the joy of surviving a disaster.

The bullet fired at him was extremely off target, and Tachino even suspected that the officer had not fired a gun at all. But that was unlikely, and the only explanation was that he was just lucky.

His good luck not only allowed him to dodge the bullet, but also allowed some soldiers to flee immediately after the shooting. In a short period of time, the number of people leaving increased rapidly. Up to this moment, countless people had followed him out of the military factory.

Now that they had left the military factory, Tachino thought that he needed a reasonable explanation for taking this group of defeated soldiers to Heinrich.

'Despite seeing that he could not defend the Macedonian military factory, Davis still insisted on his own opinion and issued several wrong orders in succession, which not only caused the military factory to fall, but also caused heavy casualties to the soldiers in the factory.'

'In order to preserve as much manpower as possible to recapture the Macedonian military factory in the future, I decided to evacuate with them at the last minute.'

"Well, let's just use this explanation to refine the details along the way..."

Thinking of this, Tachino looked forward, and a smile finally appeared at the corner of his mouth, but he quickly retracted it. After all, it was not good to be seen by others.

Now, I am the supreme commander of this army, how can I not set a good example?

As the sounds of fighting gradually weakened, Tachino led the defeated soldiers along the moonlit road, heading straight for Heinrich.
