Chapter 369
It can be said that the battle of the DWS platform indeed raised the international status of the Dragon Nation significantly.
Shortly after the battlefield opened, the Dragon Nation's Great Leader received visit requests from many countries, quite reminiscent of the "ten thousand nations coming to pay tribute" in ancient times.
Among them were even some countries that were not friendly to the Dragon Nation.
Regarding this, the Great Leader, who had just received numerous protests and provided a pile of explanations, could only smile wryly.
Who could have imagined that the Dragon Nation's soaring international status would actually stem from the war impact of the DWS platform?
But even the Great Leader had to admit one fact.
That is, this international status is by no means something that can be obtained by mere talk or simple economics.
Of course, to wear the crown, one must bear its weight.
This point is also an unchanging truth.
To become the world's number one nation, to recreate the prosperous era of the Han and Tang dynasties, and to let the Dragon Nation's people stand at the pinnacle of the world.
Being resented by others is a certainty.
In fact, not attracting hatred is the mark of a mediocre person.
This applies equally at the national level.
However, as long as one is strong, what is there to fear?
Following the DWS platform's slaughter of the John Bull, the Kangaroo Nation, and the Stick Nation.
Whether it was the John Bull, the Kangaroo Nation, or the Stick Nation, the public could not sit still after watching the live stream.
Many people spontaneously took to the streets to protest.
In particular, the Dragon Nation's people suddenly began to be denounced by the people of these countries.
Because the public in these countries felt that it was the Dragon Nation's people who had cruelly murdered their soldiers.
These members of the public demanded that their governments take necessary retaliatory actions against the Dragon Nation.
However, fortunately, those in power were still relatively calm.
They knew that now was not the time for nonsense, and besides, the other side's military momentum was at its peak.
If they provoked a conflict now, and were directly given a sound beating, who would they go to for justice?
Fortunately, the DWS platform's army did not slaughter these coalition soldiers to the last man.
For those who threw away their firearms and knelt on the ground with their hands behind their heads,
the DWS platform's mercenaries would no longer attack them.
In the end, taking 1.5 hours, the 1,000 Dragon Nation special forces soldiers hired by the DWS platform,
killed 3,682 soldiers of the British coalition.
They captured 2,418, but as for the bodies, the mercenary soldiers only found 3,375.
The rest were basically either blown to pieces or directly vanished due to flames or something similar.
Very fortunately, the Stick Nation soldiers Shen Jirong and Jiang Enbiao were both alive; they had wisely thrown away their weapons on the battlefield and knelt down at the time.
And the other 100 Stick soldiers with them were not so lucky.
At least 80 were killed in action, and after the battle, only a dozen or so Stick soldiers were still alive.
At this moment, these Sticks were being herded and made to squat to one side with some British soldiers.
A mercenary was taking a count.
These captured soldiers would naturally be sent to the Syrian side; as for how Syria would use them,
Lin Yi would no longer concern himself.
However, among this group of captives, through the mercenaries, he discovered a person who was extremely cowardly and afraid of death.
Almost without much questioning, this Stick soldier named Shen Jirong confessed everything.
He even expressed that he hated the corrupt officials and financial conglomerates of the Stick Nation.
He was willing to join the DWS platform to serve the platform and would never betray it.
After learning about the background of this Stick Nation soldier from the mercenaries, Lin Yi thought for a moment and felt that this Stick might still be useful,
so he did not let the troops hand this person over to the Syrian side.
Of course, given Lin Yi's personality,
he certainly would not just trust this Stick like that.
A necessary "pledge of allegiance" was definitely needed.
Under the recommendation of this Stick, Lin Yi had people release a few Sticks.
Among them was a soldier named Jiang Enbiao.
But to walk out of here alive, what they needed to pay was loyalty.
Lin Yi had people give each of these few Sticks a pistol.
And what they needed to do was to take the pistols and directly finish off some of the surviving Stick soldiers.
Of course, Lin Yi doing this was certainly in violation of the Geneva Convention,
but the DWS platform was not a country, so there was no need to abide by the convention at all.
Not to mention, when the Little Sun Nation invaded back then, did they abide by the convention?
A mercenary soldier holding a Type 95 assault rifle spoke to the Stick Shen Jirong and other Stick soldiers in the Stick language:
"Aren't you going to join us? Then finish these people off now!"
Instantly, Shen Jirong, holding the gun, was trembling all over.
Seeing this scene, the mercenary soldier fired a shot directly,
and the bullet hit the ground right at Shen Jirong's feet.
Seeing this, Shen Jirong walked up to a captive.
"... Jirong, it's me, Jun'en... please, talk to them, let me go, I'm also willing to renounce my Stick nationality and join them..."
This soldier looked in terror at Shen Jirong, who was holding the pistol.
However, Shen Jirong pulled the trigger directly; only a 'Bang!' was heard, and the other party fell to the ground in response.
A bloody hole in the center of his brow was bleeding.
