Chapter 3219 The man who puts out the fire
Taking a few deep breaths and struggling to escape from the fear of some kind of giant, Mikael forced himself to calm down and stepped on the red carpet with cautious steps, one step at a time. He walked towards the god who was watching him, and tried to suppress his desire to lower his head and look away.
Finally, after walking twelve steps, some fine sweat appeared on his forehead, then he bent his knees, knelt on one knee on the carpet, lowered his head deeply, and made a sign of the Aquila with his hands.
“Mikael Korostoy, on behalf of our lord, Governor-General Yuri Olikov Pechenka, has an audience with His Excellency the Great Consul Soshyan Alexei.”
There was silence all around, and the sound of the busy bridge operation area seemed to be completely blocked. There was only the slight whistling of the artificial wind. The Terminators on both sides stood motionless as if they were statues.
Mikael lowered his head, and the thick fur pressed against his neck, making him a little hot. He suddenly regretted bringing such a thing.
In front of that god-like majestic existence, this is as ridiculous as mouse fur.
Suddenly, whether it was an illusion or not, he seemed to hear a chuckle.
"Commander-in-Chief Mikael, you are very young."
This seemingly plain sentence, with the support of the rich voice, is still very majestic, Mikael's brain is working rapidly Finally, he replied softly:
"Thank you for your compliment. I also feel that I am much younger. I think it is because I have witnessed your great power and received a little glory from the God Emperor."
"Hahaha, you are worthy of being a servant. The commander-in-chief is very good at talking. Get up, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief of the Volistad Guards."
After waiting for three seconds, Mikael stood up, still lowering his head slightly.
"His Excellency the Chief Consul Soshyan Alexey, my Lord asked me to convey a message to you. All the soldiers and civilians of Volistad are grateful for your timely assistance. After repelling the aliens, we will Erect the most magnificent statue for you on the highest peak of the planet!"
The towering god shook his head.
"Let's skip these."
After saying that, he raised his hand, and the two flexible screens immediately hung down, and then the picture appeared.
Mikael looked at the content on the screen cautiously. It looked like the earth had turned into scorched earth. Many greenskins were driving primitive motorcycles like escaping beasts, but the death gaze from the sky would One by one they destroyed.
"The main force of greenskins on the Libashka Peninsula has been annihilated by our army. The only thing we have to deal with now is the greenskins in Shannan Territory."
Soshiyang said a word, let Mi Kyle's arms shook slightly.
How long has it been since the other party arrived? Such a powerful green-skinned gang was annihilated just like this.
Mikael glanced at the screen. When the screen flashed across the ruined King Kong, he knew that this should be true.
"How is the situation of the defense line in the Kopolov Mountains?"
When asked about the situation of the defense line in the mountains, Mikael quickly replied:
"Everything is there .Under control.”
At this time, the screen on Soshiyang's left side suddenly flashed, and then a top-down view appeared. You could clearly see a fortress standing on the mountainside that was smoking, and there were people carrying rockets roaring. The greenskins jumped out of the woods and landed in the fortress, and Soldiers in simple clothes ran out of various exits of the fortress in embarrassment, running wildly on the mountain paths. More unlucky ones were thrown directly from the wall by the green skins, and then the flag planted at the highest point of the fortress was also thrown down. A tattered little green flag was planted on the highest point of the fortress.
Then the scene changed, and another fortress at the mouth of the valley had been turned into dilapidated ruins. Many heads and corpses were piled into hills. Roaring green pickup trucks and dirty tanks were running over the ruins along the relatively narrow road. The flat river valley leads to the rear.
Looking at all this, Mikael was dumbfounded and broke into a cold sweat.
"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, your defense line has long been reduced to a sieve." Soshyan's words were very plain, but with a hint of questioning. After taking a deep breath, Mikael replied softly.
"The soldiers had limited equipment, insufficient training, and lacked food and clothing. They did their best."
"Oh? I thought you would explain yourself."
"I am just a servant. I have never commanded an army in the past, and I have never even understood military affairs. I can't explain myself. I prefer to call I am a firefighter, not the commander-in-chief."
At this time, Soshyan picked up a data pad at hand, and a message flashed on it, and then he put it down again.
"Someone has accused you of fearing the enemy like a tiger, refusing to fight, being cowardly, and abandoning the people. Do you have anything to explain?"
Mikael raised his head slightly and spoke calmly. tone responded to the accusation.
"Sir, although I am not a military expert, I know one thing. Land without someone to protect it is meaningless. I can understand the resentment of those who have lost their homes and relatives towards me. I am also willing to bear those resentments, but I don't think so. My decision was wrong. This disaster came too suddenly, and no one was prepared. The so-called army can catch bandits and suppress farmers who rebel because of taxes, but what they are better at is roadblocking and robbery. Gambling is prostitution and reselling military supplies. I don’t know much about the military, but I know them well and I know what they are capable of. Under such circumstances, I can only choose to save those who can be saved.”
Soshyan suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
“Do those generals listen to you?”
Mikael was stunned for a moment, and then said cautiously:
“Some of them listen, and quite a few are stubborn. ”
"Someone accused you of using disgraceful means to coerce many commanders?"
Mikael forced a smile.
"Sir, this is indeed disgraceful. After all, who among these people doesn't have a bunch of mistresses, illegitimate children and shady properties?"
"Ha, interesting, interesting."
While talking and laughing, the mask on Soshyan's face retreated into the beast's mouth above the helmet, revealing his true face, and then said with a hint of ridicule:
"Mikael, since you have mastered the military power, have you never thought of taking the opportunity to replace your master?"
"My loyalty to my lord, just like my loyalty to the God Emperor, will last until death. "
"But the Pechinka family is no longer good. All direct family members are dead, and the family territory has been burned, leaving only the small part of the Shanbei Territory."
Soshiyang. He leaned back slightly, like a judge conducting a trial.
“Do you think it still has the strength to lead the world?”
Mikael was silent for a long time, and the calmness on his face gradually turned to sadness.
"My lord, you are right. The Pechinka family has indeed reached its end. What my lord expects from sitting in this position is not to inherit power, but to lead the Volistas. The people of Germany defeated the aliens and got out of this disaster, allowing more people to live. If this is the end of the Pechinka family, my lord hopes that it will at least have a decent funeral. For this reason, my lord almost took out the Pechinka family. All the remaining fields and farms were distributed to the refugees free of charge, all the wealth that the family could mobilize was used for military expenses, and all the real estate was converted into hospitals and refugee camps. "
Soshiyang did not listen after hearing this. What he said was just tapping the armrest of the throne with the fingers of his left hand.
