Chapter 209 Eagle's Blood
"Can you agree with the answer to the first question?" Guan Shan said seriously.
Chu Ge hesitated for a moment, without comment, and said, "The second question, I want to know more about Wilson in the 'Blood Eagle'. Has he really... started a massacre in another world, killed many innocent people, and now he has become a senior executive of the Earth Army?"
"In the first half, I don't know that there are indeed many rumors that Wilson, a cold-blooded butcher who is unforgivable, has created many bloody cases in the world of cultivation and the world of illusion and demons, and is likely to become an obstacle to peace between the earth and the other world. However, there is no real evidence for such a thing. It is impossible to slander a 'hero' with outstanding military achievements with a few rumors."
Guan Shan Chong said, "In the second half, yes, 'Blood Eagle' Wilson is a lieutenant general of the Earth Army, a hard-core battle faction with great strength. He has countless supporters and great influence in the army and parliament. His 'Double-headed Eagle Legion' is also a top-notch army with its most powerful combat power. It is built on the standard of expeditions from another world. Including him, he is one of the outstanding super experts in his combat power far exceeding the 'colonel' Ning Lie.
"You should know that 'colonel' Ning Lie did not lie, he did slaughter innocent people."
Chu Ge stared at Guan Shanzhong, "Major Guan, what do you think of a guy like 'Blood Eagle' Wilson? Don't you feel... very uncomfortable with him?"
Guan Shanzhong smiled very strangely.
"Do you think Wilson of the Blood Eagle is evil and completely inhumane. Even the Colonel Ning Lie is better than him. At least the Colonel will feel guilty and have the feelings of being a human? So, you don't want to join the Earth Army because you are disgusted with Wilson of the Blood Eagle?" Guan Shanzhong asked.
"If the 'Blood Eagle' Wilson really ruthlessly slaughtered one small mountain village after another, without any guilt, and even enjoyed it - wouldn't this be considered 'evil'?" Chu Ge frowned.
"I said that justice and evil are not so easy to distinguish. Before evaluating the 'Blood Eagle' Wilson, let me tell you a true story."
Guan Shan pondered for a moment and said, "It should be fifty or sixty years ago. At that time, the Earth Alliance had not yet been established, but at least some places have restored basic order and various regular troops.
"There is such a seven-man tactical reconnaissance squad of the regular army. It received orders from its superiors to cross a wasteland covered with bandit gangs and rebels to infiltrate the rebel bases.
"This is an extremely dangerous task. The most important thing is that it cannot be discovered by anyone. Otherwise, the seven-man reconnaissance squad is not the opponent of a large number of rebels and bandits at all. Therefore, special attention needs to be paid to concealment.
“However, the reconnaissance team was discovered by a shepherd and his children on the way through the wasteland.
"Most of the local residents are tortured by rebels and bandits, living a miserable life, but are forced by rebels and have to cooperate with rebels, which is very likely to become the eyes and ears of rebels.
"The safest choice for this reconnaissance team is undoubtedly to kill the shepherd and his children, so as not to inform the rebels.
"The six members of the reconnaissance team also think so.
"However, their captain has a different view—like you, based on justice, full of emotion, and a more humanistic view.
"The captain believes that the locals are bullied by rebels and are originally victims. If the regular army can kill people to keep it secret, what is the difference between it and the rebels?
"What's more, besides the shepherd, there is also his children. Can a regular army kill an innocent child at will?
“The captain and his players got into a fight.
"The shepherd also begged hard, and repeatedly promised that he would never inform the rebels - he hated the rebels deeply, and wished that the regular army would eradicate all the rebels as soon as possible, so how could he repay kindness with grudges?
"His child also cried loudly, touching the softest human nature in the hearts of the scouts.
"Even though, the captain convinced all the team members that they tied the shepherd and the children up, tied them up very strongly, threw them in a cave, leaving enough food, and prepared to help them loosen their ties when they came back from completing the task.
“Then they continued to go on the road and carry out the mission.
"As a result, hehe, they forgot to think about the goat - the shepherd's goat bit off the rope, causing the shepherd to escape, perhaps in fear, or for the sake of profit, to report the existence of the reconnaissance squad to the local rebels as soon as possible.
"Now, the reconnaissance team stepped into the death trap carefully prepared by the rebels and bandit gangs for them in a ignorant situation. As a result of the fierce battle, six team members were killed on the spot. The captain with the glory of human nature was also seriously injured, his face was damaged, he lost an arm and a leg, and was dying, and was rescued by reinforcements."
"ah……"
Chu Ge's eyes wide open, feeling quite uncomfortable.
This is one of the possible consequences of another choice that "colonel" Ning Lie once faced.
"The tragedy has developed here and it has not ended."
Guan Shanzhong continued, "This reconnaissance captain who made a big mistake and was seriously injured is naturally not suitable to stay in the army. However, even if he returned to his hometown and his wife and children, his deep guilt and the undead of the team members were still entangled with him day and night. Coupled with his physical pain and ugly face, he suffered from the torture of post-war trauma syndrome, from being warm and generous, he became a loser with a weird temper, a irritable personality, and a day of alcoholism.
"Repentance and pain torture him. After he was drunk, he tortured his wife and three children even more. He closed the door and turned his family into a small military camp. He used the strictest military rules to restrain his wife and children. What else could he say, even a little bit of mercy, possibly making irreparable mistakes.
"After about ten years of such a life, his children grew up and finally couldn't stand it. They stood up to resist this ugly and cruel tyrant. Finally, after a fierce quarrel, he ended his wife with a shotgun, two children and his own lives, and only the youngest escaped."
Chu Ge couldn't sit still.
It seemed as if someone was pointing at him with a shotgun behind his back.
My chest and spine were covered in cold sweat.
"You can't sit still, do you think this is the whole of the tragedy?"
Guan Shan spread his hands again and said, "When this former reconnaissance captain dragged the entire family to destroy it, the youngest child instantly lost everything - what do you think in that chaotic year, an orphan who received strict militarization training since childhood could survive?
"Yes, this little guy became a mercenary and found that he had a very rare talent in this business.
"He worked so well. Not long after, he made the name of "Blood Eagle" in the mercenary circle and established his own mercenary group called "Double-headed Eagle". After some years, his mercenary group became larger and larger, and the Earth Alliance also established a solid order. He naturally accepted the adaptation of the Earth Army. After some hard work, he became a lieutenant general of the Earth Army with his great military achievements."
Chu Ge finally couldn't help it and stood up.
"Is this true?"
Chu Ge said in a lost voice, "Wilson's father, has he ever had... that kind of experience?"
"I said that this is a real story. The details may differ, but it is roughly not bad. Wilson, a hero with outstanding military achievements. Many people in the military know his experience, and it is not a secret."
Guan Shan said again, "If you ask me how to evaluate Wilson in Blood Eagle, I really don't know - this is not a shirk, but I think the only thing I'm different from him is luck. I'm very lucky to not fall into his situation, so I can still stick to the bottom line of human nature and sit here with you about 'justice and evil'. A lucky person should not be evaluating an unfortunate person at will. My only evaluation of Wilson in Blood Eagle is that I pity him, that's it."
Chu Ge was speechless.
Guan Shan stood up again, put all the information into his briefcase, and smiled casually: "Forget it, I see, I'm afraid you are not suitable to join the Earth Army - you think too much and it's difficult to become an excellent soldier."
Chu Ge was stunned: "Are you actively rejecting me? Can't soldiers have their own ideas?"
"Soldiers can of course have their own ideas, but it is best not to deviate from their superiors too much. Otherwise, you will be in pain and the army will be in pain. Those comrades who are infected by you will be in pain even more."
Guan Shan said seriously, "Although it is a pity that I missed a talent like you, but the forced melon is not sweet. Why do you have to fall into a painful situation together? I will tell the above that I have conducted a detailed psychological assessment of you. Your mentality is extremely unstable and cannot meet the standards of the military - this is true. You are not a soldier, but a soldier."
"What is the difference between soldiers and soldiers?" Chu Ge asked.
"Soldiers are obeying orders as their duty, but soldiers are struggling to find what they fight for."
Guan Shanzhong breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had put down a heavy burden, and said with a smile, "I wish you to find Chu Ge soon."
He did not miss it, and turned around and walked out with great strides.
"Wait, Major Guan..." Chu Ge felt a little lost.
"Look, you are so sentimental and hesitant, how can you be a soldier like steel?"
Guan Shankong walked to the door without looking back and waved his hand randomly, "Anotherwise, for the Earth Alliance, in addition to soldiers who absolutely obey orders, perhaps some sentimental soldiers are needed? Forget it, when I haven't come, go and accompany you "little palace master", haha!"
