Chapter 460 - 460: A Hero? More Like a Rabid Bear! (1)
“I nearly threw up,” a viewer exclaimed.
“An animal is still an animal, capable of turning on its own kind!”
“Yes, indeed. He killed his own people. He is not human. Why could he not allow them to surrender? Why did he need to murder them all?”
“He may seem like a hero, but in truth, he is nothing more than a great fool. Without considering the sentiments of his soldiers, he refused to surrender and ended up taking so many innocent lives!”
“I find it quite satisfying. Yes, they all perished, and rightly so!”
The netizens discussed the incident heatedly. Hardly anyone hailed the officer as a hero. Instead, they claimed he lacked humanity. After all, no matter how stubbornly one refuses to surrender, how deeply one holds on to one’s beliefs, did he consult with the ordinary soldiers? Did he ask them if they wished to commit suicide alongside him? He did not, and instead, led them to execution.
If such a situation had arisen in ancient China, this general would undoubtedly have been reviled. How could he squander so many vibrant lives? Was it merely for his dignity that he let them all perish?
Truth be told, such a deed truly had nothing praiseworthy about it. In fact, it was utterly foolish. Naturally, the actions of this man quickly spread across the internet. His letter was translated into vernacular language and shared rapidly online.
Upon witnessing such events, many netizens began hurling abuses. Some said he got what he deserved; others agreed with his fate, and no one showed any sympathy. After all, most remembered that period in history well—it was a memory that would last a lifetime.
Within just twenty minutes, an armed helicopter arrived at the scene, presumably to take custody of the five poachers. Initially, only the local police had responded, but now the military was present. Considering the severity of the situation, the local police were certainly ill-equipped to handle it.
“Mr. Luo, I am a team leader from the Northeast Border Defence Headquarters.
We are here to assist you with this matter!”
“Hello!” Luo Feng greeted the other party, nodding, “These telegrams and envelopes are of the utmost importance—they serve as irrefutable evidence of that historical period. I am entrusting them to you, and you must safeguard them well. Ensure their protection at all costs.”
“Mr. Luo, rest assured, we will treat them as more precious than our own lives!” The team leader stated resolutely. They had already received orders from the higher-ups—any mishap during the transport would result in military punishment.
“Additionally, we will take those poachers into custody and extract necessary information from them,” the team leader continued.
“Alright, that is fine. I leave it all in your hands,” Luo Feng agreed, bidding them farewell.
As for Luo Feng himself, he moved forward with the wealthy heirs. Though Luo Feng had left the scene, things were just getting started. Luo Feng’s influence now extended beyond national borders; fans from countries like the Cherry Blossom Nation, Korea, and even the West watched his broadcasts. Hence, regardless of the content of his livestream, its spread was swift worldwide.
The pace of the spread depended on the specifics of the event—if it were a sudden major incident, the spread would be faster. If it were some treasure that foreigners could not understand, the spread would be slower. For instance, in today’s scenario, the ironclad evidence from that period in history spread like wildfire.
The Cherry Blossom Nation had always denied these atrocities, even refusing to admit to their actions in military tribunals.
However, as of that day, those matters did not require their personal admission anymore because irrefutable proof had been found – the envelope from the officer who committed suicide.
“My goodness, how shameless of them! All of you need to quickly look at the news from the Sakura Nation!” someone said.
“What happened? How have they been shameless?” another asked.
“I saw it. Over there in the Cherry Blossom Nation, they’ve even established a special team to retrieve their ‘heroes,’ which refers to the corpses of those who committed suicide. They want to bring them back!” someone explained.
“My word, calling them heroes? They’re more like rabid bears. It’s truly shameless, I feel nauseated by their audacity,” another commented.
“They are a group of brutes. They’re not fit to be soldiers!” someone else chimed in.
“Indeed… Do they intend on bringing these vile beasts back and put them in pigsties!?” another person jested.
At the same time, the leader of the Northeast Border Defense was very angry when he heard about this.
“This object was given to us by Mr. Luo. We are only safeguarding it on his behalf. Furthermore, his intention is to use this to reclaim what should be reclaimed. Therefore, no matter what, we must not retreat!” he asserted.
“But we have to consider what the higher-ups say!” a staff officer said.
At this, the leader was not happy. “Hmm, considering the higher-ups, is it? I think that as long as the people above are not brain-dead, they should know that we must fight to the end.”
“How should we respond to the Cherry Blossom Nation’s demand for the bodies?” the staff officer continued..
