"What? The headquarters wants us to stay in the United States? " William Hessen was stunned by the latest news. He originally thought that the ship that would arrive in Washington in half a month might not be able to rescue them back to Germany. After China conquered Pittsburgh, it was inevitable that they would continue to advance eastward. Based on the behavior of the US Army, they didn't seem to have any intention of confronting China head-on.
Now the news was even worse than before. The German Hessen mercenary group still needed to stay in North America. The situation where their lives were hanging by a thread now seemed to be developing toward a dead end.
"Since the headquarters said so, we probably can only obey. The headquarters said that they will send more troops, and at the same time, there will be ships left in the United States, ready to pick us up at any time, "the mercenary leader replied.
"Are we sending more troops?" William asked. William Hessen didn't understand what the headquarters were thinking. The difference between the Hessen mercenary group and other mercenary groups was that the other mercenary groups mainly focused on missions, so the fewer the people on the mission, the more everyone would get. Since the establishment of the Hessen mercenary group, they basically engaged in the same combat missions as the regular army, so the employment services they provided were calculated according to the "team." Even if it was a small mission, they would send a team of people at a time.
"Are you sure the report we submitted to the country is correct?" the surveyor asked the leader.
The leader nodded hard. "I want to leave this damn place like everyone else. What's in it for me to give false information to the country? "
This statement was agreed by the mercenary group members. It was too dangerous to fight against the Chinese on the plains of North America. After escaping with their lives, the mercenary group began to discuss among themselves. Some people thought that the Chinese vehicles were cumbersome, and a small ravine could stop the Chinese army. But the Chinese team's action of besieging New Orleans shocked this group of mercenaries. The mercenaries' understanding of the Chinese team became that the Chinese vehicles were cumbersome, but it meant that Chinese vehicles could carry more war supplies.
If this group of mercenaries didn't rely on the leadership of the US officials and the supplies of the US towns, they would probably still be struggling in the mountains of the United States. And the Chinese would undoubtedly not be welcomed by the Americans. Even if they were, they would be shot by the American people. The Hessian Mercenary Group's job was to help the Americans effectively shoot at the approaching Chinese. To be able to maintain such a powerful speed of advancement in a state of war, one could see how powerful the Chinese army was.
"The Americans think they can stop the Chinese with the Appalachian Mountains?" The Decurion's tone was filled with distrust.
"Since they are already trying their best to kill all the Native Americans they can see, if they can't stop the Chinese, they will die," the chief answered calmly. The mercenaries all nodded in agreement. There was only one possibility for this to happen.
"Let's apply to move to a place further north in Washington. It was not only mountainous, but also close to Canada. Even if we fail, we can still escape to Canada. Staying in the southern part of the United States is too unreliable. The Chinese have already reached the plains. If they continue eastward, they can attack the United States. " Hazel immediately suggested. This was the result of studying the map of the United States.
The mercenary groups looked at each other, and no one objected. Therefore, the mercenary groups contacted the German Embassy in the United States and expressed their attitude, hoping that the German Ambassador could communicate with the Americans effectively.
Of course, they couldn't tell the German Ambassador the reason for preparing to escape. The mercenary group only said that the Hessian Mercenary Group had a long history of fighting in the area north of Washington. Even if it was more than a hundred years ago, the Hessian Mercenary Group would definitely be able to display greater combat power if they revisited the old place.
From the outside, the German Ambassador to the United States looked like a very refined intellectual. Although such a person was knowledgeable, he could only be described as a "wooden club" when it came to military affairs. Because when he heard the mercenary group members talk about the mercenary group's long history of over a hundred years, the ambassador's eyes unconsciously lit up, as if he felt the shock of ancient times. This kind of nerdy reaction made the group of mercenaries laugh in their hearts.
Although the mercenary groups also knew about the glorious history of their troops, all the members of this group never relied on their long history to survive. They relied on their understanding of war and their ability to survive.
After getting the ambassador's assurance, the mercenary group very politely didn't disturb the ambassador. After leaving the iron gate of the embassy, the ten-man captain turned his head to look at the simple and unadorned building and sneered with some jealousy. "It seems that Mr. Ambassador doesn't understand that we are the creators of the Hessian Mercenary Group's history, not the burden of the Hessian Mercenary Group's history."
William? Hessian didn't understand what these words meant. He was just happy that his life was safe. William? In Hessian's mind, after the mercenary group arrived at the northeast mountain area, what they should do was not to train some bullsh * t American militia, but to immediately determine the passage to Canada. It was winter soon, and if it snowed, it would be very difficult to go to Canada. Therefore, even if they fled, William? Hessian also hoped to be able to enter a safe place before the snow sealed the mountain.
After returning to the station, William? Hessian first went to the bar with his companions to drink two glasses of Irish whiskey. There were many Irish immigrants to the United States, and most of them fled to North America during the Great Famine. Not only did they provide abundant cheap labor for the American railroad industry, but they also brought with them the method of making Irish whiskey. Like the price of Irish labor, Irish whiskey was also very cheap, and it was very cost-effective.
The ten-man captain loved to drink beer. He placed a glass of beer in front of him, and he quickly buried his head in today's newspaper. The sound of the beer made William? Hessian's good mood was affected by the alcohol, and he couldn't help but ask, "What did you see in these newspapers?"
"These newspapers promote all kinds of content about defending the country, and all kinds of strange victories." The ten-man captain answered without looking up, and continued to read as he spoke.
"Oh, and it's full of news about all kinds of houses and land being sold. Look at this … "The ten-man captain turned the newspaper in another direction and said to William? Hessian pointed to one of the articles. "50 US dollars can buy 15 hectares of land near Washington. You can buy it with the money you have now. In Germany, 500 US dollars can't even buy that much land. "
William? Hessian didn't understand English, so he was too lazy to read it. He directly asked the ten-man captain, "What does this mean?"
