Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Emma, ??you see the enemy has raised a white flag. Are they about to surrender?"

    An encirclement of the imperial fleet has been formed, surrounding the navy of Mori Ryuzo, and cannonballs are falling like rain.

    At this time, half a day had passed since the war between the two sides began, and the navy built by Mao Lilong had already lost half of its warships.

    On the sea surface, there are floating broken hulls and wood chips everywhere. Some large ships are still burning with raging fires, and calls for help can be heard from time to time in the sea.

    If you fail, you have completely failed.

    This is a duel with a disparity in power and no victory in sight.

    Mao Lilongzao was already discouraged.

    He knew that these enemies were not something he could deal with.

    Even if you have more battleships than the opponent, you still can't defeat the opponent.

    The current results have proven many problems.

    If he persisted, he would only end up being annihilated, so he simply asked his men to raise the white flag, hoping that the other party would accept his surrender.

    Who wouldn¡¯t want to live on?

    Emma and the others don¡¯t want to know about Maori Ryuzao¡¯s mood at this time.

    After hearing the words, Emma put her hand on her forehead and looked around.

    Sure enough, as Sara said, the other party has already flown a white flag, which means surrender.

    Emma curled her lips, looking very disappointed.

    "I really can't understand why a white flag, that kind of cloth, is used when surrendering. You know, among us Indians, if you want to surrender, you must at least offer the leader's head.  Sincerity.¡±

    After listening to Emma¡¯s words, Sara smiled bitterly.

    It is always difficult for her to explain some rules of the civilized world to Emma. After all, this matter cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

    After all, Emma¡¯s heart and thinking are still those of an Indian.

    There is no way to change this.

    Although she has gained a lot of experience by following Zhao Hongyu.

    But after all, she is still an Indian little girl, and she can¡¯t help but think in the Indian way of thinking when looking at problems.

    "So, do we accept it?"

    Sarah asked.

    Sarah knows her status very clearly. Although she is also Zhao Hongyu's wife, she still cannot be compared with Emma.

    ??Especially at certain times, she has to take Emma as the main character.

    ??Actually, Sarah is a smart woman.

    She knew she couldn¡¯t express herself too much. Although Emma had a good temper, she was still a little girl after all.

    ¡° If you get a little tempered like this, you won¡¯t be able to bear it.

    "Don't accept it! We are still going to Edo. Didn't my dear tell us to bombard that place? If we accept the surrender of these people, how will we take care of them?"

    Emma blinked her big watery eyes and decided the final outcome of the Maori Dragon's creation of these people.

    It¡¯s not that Emma is cruel, it¡¯s just that the little girl thought about this problem very simply using Indian thinking.

    The Indians on the American continent have a lot of wars and fighting between tribes. Emma has experienced a lot of death since she was a child, so she has become very indifferent to killing people.

    And for Indians, death is not a good destination.

    Because after death, the human soul can return to the embrace of God in heaven, and there is no need to suffer in the human world.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????It is warm there, there is no fighting and hatred, it is an ideal place to live.

    Emma still feels that she is a great good person.

    I have to say that Emma¡¯s thinking is very strange.

    Of course, on the American continent, her thinking is very normal.

    With one word, the life and death of almost 10,000 people were decided, but there was no emotion on Emma¡¯s face.

    This made Sara feel deeply afraid.

    She felt that it would be better not to provoke this little Indian girl in the future. In Sarah's view, Emma was a weak-tempered and ruthless existence.

    ¡°In fact, how did Sarah know that she had completely wronged the little girl Emma.

    Emma just has a different mindset than people in the ¡®civilized¡¯ world.

    She doesn¡¯tWhat matters is the life and death of the enemy, and they have more important tasks to do.

    For Emma, ??the life and death of the enemy has nothing to do with her. They were fighting just now, but now they have to surrender if they can't defeat them. How can there be such an easy thing to say?

    So, she has the right not to accept it.

    A dead enemy is a good enemy. This is an Indian custom.

    Actually, Emma is not wrong to think so.

    And Emma cares about Zhao Hongyu very much, since she accepted Zhao Hongyu¡¯s arrangement and mission to lead the fleet to fight the enemy.

    ¡° Then Emma feels that everything must be focused on completing the ¡®dear¡¯ task, and everything else must give way to this.

    As she considered it, the surrender of these enemies was not unacceptable, but accepting it would cause many problems.  The first thing is to send someone to watch over them, but to send someone to watch over them, you must have manpower.

    ??Wouldn¡¯t this reduce one¡¯s own military strength?

    This is not possible.

    At the same time, it will also consume a lot of your own troops and energy.

    It¡¯s better to annihilate all the opponents, so that you can devote all your energy to bombarding Edo.

    Emma¡¯s thoughts are very simple.

    It¡¯s not because of her cold nature that she would take human life for granted.

    In her eyes, there are only "dear" goals and the tasks she promised.

    She doesn¡¯t care about other things.

    ¡°All the standards and norms of the civilized world do not apply to Emma at all.

    She is an Indian, and her thinking is that of an Indian on the American continent.

    Some pedantic ideas have no market in the little girl's heart.

    ¡°There are good and bad things about this.

    At least, it seems that there are still more benefits now.

    While Emma and Sara were talking, the nearby warships began to use walkie-talkies to ask what arrangements they had for the surrendered flagship of the Japanese navy.

    Should you accept it or not?

    With the exception of the flagship where Emma and Sarah are located, the other battleship captains are all captained by genetic people of Chinese descent.

    Although these genetic people of Chinese origin were cultivated through strange genetic technology, they also inherited the hatred of the Japanese in their bones.

    They do not want to accept the surrender of these Japanese.

    Although these Japanese people are different from those in later generations, they are from another time and space.

    But, after all, they are also Japanese.

    Being able to kill Japanese people still makes genetic people excited and happy.

    It¡¯s just that they have all been nurtured and trained by genetic humans, and they have the character to obey their leaders.

    They have no way to make the final decision on such a big matter.

    Therefore, when the enemy raises a white flag and wants to surrender, they can only see what Emma and Sarah mean.

    However, from their hearts, all Chinese captains hope not to accept surrender.

    "Sir! The captains asked whether to continue the bombardment or accept the other party's surrender?"

    The messenger on the flagship came to Sarah and Emma, ??stood up straight and reported loudly.

    "If you don't accept it, sink the opponent's warships. Our next target is the Edo coast. We don't have the experience to take so many prisoners."

    Emma turned around, blinked her big eyes, her face still looked innocent, but she made a cruel decision.

    The ordering soldier immediately turned around and left, passing on the order.

    The battleships who received this order suddenly became excited.

    Poor Maori Ryuzao has to continue to bear the bombardment of artillery.

    "Emma, ??isn't this a little too cruel?"

    ??Sarah is a woman from the ¡®civilized¡¯ world, and it is very difficult for her to understand that the enemy continues to attack after they intend to surrender.

    On the European side, if the enemy surrenders, the hostile party must accept it.

    Furthermore, a very chivalrous scene must be used to conduct a surrender ceremony.

    Well, of course, the surrendering party needs to pay a large ransom to redeem their senior generals.

    This method, which is very popular in Europe, why doesn¡¯t it work here in Emma?

    Emma heard this?, looked at Sara with a puzzled expression.

    In fact, the little girl doesn¡¯t understand Sara¡¯s thinking mode very much, just like Sara doesn¡¯t understand hers.

    It seems that the thinking of European women and American girls are really incompatible.

    "Why should we accept their surrender, and what does the enemy's life and death have to do with us?" Emma was very confused. Why Sara would say such a thing, she really couldn't figure it out.  "In our Indian war, even if the enemy is willing to surrender, we will massacre their villages, kill a large number of their men, and then take their women and children as prisoners and trophies"

    Emma told Sarah their Indian views and styles on war.

    Sarah listened and shook her head in confusion.

    "This is how our Indian wars are fought. I have watched my fathers fight like this since I was a child, and I don't think anything of it. If my tribe loses, then my father and many uncles will die, and my mother and I will also die.  You will become a slave, these are God¡¯s arrangements.¡±

    The thinking of Indians is very direct, without so many twists and turns.

    On the contrary, it was the rules that Sarah came from in the 'civilized' world that made Emma find it a bit difficult to accept and give her a headache.

    Fortunately, Sarah didn¡¯t want to convince Emma, ??she was just a little confused about it.

    "Well, we actually don't need to discuss this issue too much. After all, as you said, what does the enemy's life and death have to do with us? Let them die."

    Sarah is an adult woman after all, and she quickly felt that talking about this matter with Emma would affect their relationship, so she ended the topic.

    Emma smiled and nodded: "That's right, that's right, these are enemies, let them die. We just need to complete the tasks assigned to us by my dear, his things are the most important." (To be continued. Please  Search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
