Feliza woke up in the cold.
When he opened his eyes, he felt cold all over, as if he was almost frozen to death two days ago.
In addition, Felisa only felt that her nose, right cheek and lips were all wooden, without any feeling. She only felt the strong smell of rust in the cavity.
Felisa knew that the smell of rust was actually the smell of her own blood.
When I was young and frivolous, when I was "Dueling" with a dandy in China, my nose was broken by the other party, and my mouth was just like this.
It's just that the taste this time is obviously stronger than that more than ten years ago.
It's dark around. There's a fire coming from my right side, but it's dark on my left side. And he also covered himself with several pieces of clothes, and seemed to have dry grass under him. There seems to be a voice not far away, but there is always a sharp "squeak" sound in her ears. Felisa tries to hear those words clearly, but she can't hear them clearly.
In this continuous "creak" sound, those voices seem to be far away in the sky
Felisa tried to move for a while, but he was frightened to find that he seemed unable to move. It was a feeling of freezing.
"Hello..." Felisa didn't want to be frozen to death. A few days ago, in the cold and desolate wilderness, he had witnessed dozens of brothers frozen to death. He didn't want to be one of them
However, his dry voice made him sound like the cry of a newborn kitten.
But it seemed to be in a room where Felisa's voice, though tiny, was heard.
Then, to Felisa's relief, a few familiar figures surrounded her.
"The major wakes up, the major wakes up..." a familiar voice sounded in his ear. Felisa knew that it was a member of his own lieutenant named Mendoza.
Felisa felt that her body was lifted up by seven or eight hands, and a thick pile of dry grass was stuffed behind her, which made Felisa feel a little more comfortable.
Not far ahead is a burning bonfire, which is tightly bound by the surrounding rocks, so that the branches in the fire can not be scattered around.
A bowl of warm water was soon drunk by Felisa, and he felt that he was finally alive again.
"Where is this? Aren't we taken to that damned aboriginal tribe? " Another effect of this bowl of hot water is to make Felisa's dry voice much better, at least to let him speak.
"Major, we are indeed in the aboriginal tribe. We were brought back by the dark sky, but in the process of our escort, you tried to do something unnecessary, and as a result, you were knocked down by an Aboriginal with the butt of a gun. Also, major, your nose should be broken. Our military doctor has died in the wilderness. Now no one can correct your nose... "
Felisa realized how the darkness before her eyes was caused! Then he gave a wry smile. It seems that when dealing with those Negroes in the Caribbean, he always liked to hit them with the butt of his gun. Now is it retribution?
He tried to raise his hand to touch the bridge of his nose, but he found that it was a luxury move, at least in his present situation, it could not be completed.
Felisa's efforts finally turned into a helpless sigh - break it off, fortunately to keep the life, which is better than anything.
"Mendoza, where are we now?" The temperature of the campfire made Felisa feel like she was slowly recovering.
"Major, we're locked up by those damn natives. The remaining 104 of us were divided into three groups and locked up in different houses. We have seen these houses just now. They are built with rocks mixed with something we don't know. They are very solid, and we dare not move too much. There are several Aboriginal soldiers carrying fireguns outside guarding them. If we move a little more, I'm afraid they will... "
Felisa laboriously turned his head, and then he saw that there were more than 30 brothers hiding themselves in the thatch, while several officers such as Mendoza were around the campfire. They seemed to be discussing something.
The room is big and cold, but it's better than outside. After all, the house can keep out the cold wind, and there are bonfires in it. At least these brothers can't freeze to death.
"Mendoza, what's going on here?" Felisa was silent for a long time before she continued to ask questions.
The lieutenant, known as Mendoza, shook his head. "I'm sorry, major. We don't know what's going on. Now the only thing that's certain is that the big guy locked us all up. But when you were in a coma, the big man came, but when he saw that you were still in a coma, he let his men raise the bonfire and brought us a pot and some water. But there is no food... "
"Oh, by the way, the big man told me in Latin that he would come back tomorrow, but he asked you to think about it this evening and why you came here. The big man also said that he would listen to the truth in the future, or he would throw us into the wilderness
This made everyone including Felisa shiver involuntarily.
Although the situation is very bad now, it's better than those days in the wilderness. At least you don't have to worry about freezing to death here.
Felisa was silent again. But his heart had already regretted at this time.
I should not have allowed general Carlos to lead the team here when I knew this would happen. In his own capacity, although general Carlos is his immediate superior, he does not dare to put forward excessive demands on himself.
Alas, how could Carlos have allowed himself to come here if the New Orleans governor Martinez had not had a good relationship with his father? It's because he's interested in his relationship with governor Martinez.
With this kind of relationship, I can mobilize several armed transport ships from New Orleans to go up the river, and then ask the French for information
I didn't expect to hear the news, but the road was so dangerous. The fleet hit the rocks and sank. More than 300 soldiers froze to death and drowned more than half of them. The remaining soldiers also froze to death in the three-day arduous trek. Finally, the remaining people were caught by the aborigines
This damned weather! This is a damn mission! This, this damned everything!
