Chapter 1239 Mutiny

There was no point in talking, and seeing that there was no way to get his fellow countryman on board, Royavsky had no choice but to give up.

He finally said: "In that case, you should take care of yourself! For the sake of our fellow countrymen, I remind you that if something unexpected happens recently, you should find a safe corner and don't get involved."

Kartichev said lightly: "Thank you."

In that case, Royavsky could only stand up from the box and walk in another direction, leaving Kartichev with a cold back.

...

At night.

In a trench, Royavsky and a strange man were plotting.

"How is it, Royavsky, have you managed to win over a few like-minded people like us today?"

Royavsky shook his head and said, "Mr. Ilya, the progress is not smooth. There are indeed many people on our side, but they are not willing to participate in our actions."

Ilya asked, "This is understandable. After all, most people do not have the courage to fight against unfair fate, so you don't need to blame yourself."

"Alas!" Royavsky sighed and said, "It's true as you said. Many people are not dissatisfied with the current situation, but most of them choose to muddle through."

" For example, my fellow countryman, he also knew very well the corruption of the imperial army, but he chose to compromise himself. "

Ilya comforted: "This situation is inevitable. People with different ideals cannot work together. In this case, we can only fight on our own. Our requirements are not high. That is to withdraw from the war, especially a war without victory."

In fact, victory or failure is not important to Russian soldiers. After all, when many gray animals were conscripted, they also joined the army with a mentality of muddling through, or they had no extra ideas, but they had to join the army because of the conscription of the Russian government.

But when the cruelty of war was placed in front of them, even the serfs without ideas would have their own ideas, that is, war will kill people.

If the Russian government could give them a psychological outlet, it might be okay, but as the most corrupt army among the powers, it is difficult for Russian grassroots soldiers to empathize with officers and officials.

Naturally, there are also Russian officers who lead by example, but the proportion is obviously many times worse than that of the warring countries.

Moreover, the Russian army has many more problems than the Allies, especially in terms of logistics, which is almost a stubborn problem that the Russians have never been able to solve.

If this problem can be solved, even half of it, the resentment of the Russian soldiers will probably not accumulate to such an extent.

Ilya said to Royavsky: "We will launch the action at 6 pm tomorrow. You will be responsible for our people in the third company. At that time, you only need to respond to the large forces. The signal is three gunshots. After the signal is sent, you will take your people to the headquarters in Vinnitsa."

"At that time, we will send people to negotiate with General Makayev."

Royavsky nodded and said: "It is confirmed to be 6 pm tomorrow!"

Ilya: "That's right, but if you don't hear three gunshots, don't act rashly."

After confirming the time and place of the action, Royavsky returned to the camp and began to call all "his own people". Through the efforts of more than ten days, he instigated more than 30 people. Now he told them the action plan.

The next day

The air in Vinnitsa is exceptionally fresh today. There is no sign of an approaching war in the city. The elites in suits and the busy citizens are in sharp contrast to the gray animals outside the city.

Of course, many Russian soldiers can also be seen patrolling inside Vinnitsa to maintain order throughout the city.

A citizen of Vinnitsa said: "I don't know where the Austro-Hungarian army is now. Should we seek refuge in the countryside?" Another citizen said: "Don't worry! Our Vinnitsa is still very safe. There is the Southern Bug River as a natural barrier, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops defending along the river. Vinnitsa is impregnable."

"I hope so, but it is also true that the front line collapsed in June. The Austro-Hungarian Empire is not a weak character. If it really reaches Vinnitsa, it is still not safe."

"Let's talk about it when the time comes! We don't have the capital to run to other places or the countryside. Those who can run have already run away."

"And escaping to the countryside is not safe. Who knows if you will be drafted? At least there is order in the city. It is not wise to leave the city at this time."

"There are troops everywhere now, and they are not easy to talk to, but if they had known that the front line would collapse, they should have fled in advance last month."

It's not that the citizens of Vinnitsa don't want to run away, but the news is lagging behind, so many people don't have time to leave the city for refuge. Of course, at this time, the refuge is mainly to run to the rear cities.

After all, in most cases, propaganda agencies only report good news and not bad news in wars. Last month's newspapers said that the Russian army won a great victory in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

As a result, in less than a month, the great victory became a great victory for the Austro-Hungarian Empire! The Austro-Hungarian army even advanced from the border to Moldova and Ukraine.

Of course, Bulgaria was inevitably ignored by the Russians. After all, Bulgaria was only a bonus in the eyes of the Russians. In fact, there were nearly 200,000 Bulgarian troops on the Russian battlefield assisting Germany and Austria.

And under the guarantee of Germany and Austria, all the supplies of Bulgaria's expeditionary forces were borne by the two countries, which made the combat effectiveness of the Bulgarian army not to be underestimated.

And this is also the greatest support Bulgaria can provide. After all, Bulgaria also has to station troops in Serbia, and at the same time it has to bear the heavy responsibility of guarding Romania and Greece to prevent these two "temporary neutral countries" from backstabbing the Allies.

Time soon came to six o'clock in the afternoon.

Most citizens in Vinnitsa were enjoying dinner at home.

Suddenly, gunshots came from a distance, "bang bang bang..."

There were exactly three shots, but most people didn't pay attention. After all, since Vinnitsa became the front line, guns and artillery have become common. After all, the Russian army in Vinnitsa couldn't do nothing and wait for the arrival of the Austro-Hungarian army. They also had to train or execute deserters.

But this time the gunshots were obviously different. Twenty minutes later, the citizens of Vinnitsa found something wrong, because the city of Vinnitsa suddenly became chaotic, and even exchanged fire.

Some citizens looked through the window cracks and saw a large group of Russian soldiers walking on the street. Their clothes were obviously not as neat as those of the Russian soldiers in the city, and many of them were wounded and wrapped in gauze.

And the Russian soldiers leading the way held a red flag high and marched forward.

This group of Russian soldiers had at least a thousand people, crowding the entire street. On the other side of the street, there were also Russian soldiers, but they held their guns. A Russian officer shouted at the opposite side: "No passage here, and you, who allowed you to enter the city without orders!"

"Brothers, don't be scared by him, everyone rush to the command center with me!" At this time, a leader dressed as a soldier in the "troublemaking" Russian army shouted.

And this person was Ilya who talked with Rosovsky yesterday.

And the Russian officer decisively chose to issue an order to open fire. After all, a group of Russian soldiers with unknown purposes suddenly appeared in the city, and they were not good at all.

The "troublemaking" Russian army was not to be outdone. After the other side opened fire, they also started shooting, and the two sides directly engaged in street fighting in Vinnitsa.

This made all the citizens of Vinnitsa panic. Everyone hid in the house and stopped watching the excitement, and closed the doors and windows.

The chaos in Vinnitsa alarmed other troops in the city, and the Vinnitsa mutiny occurred. Under the coercion of Ilya and others, the Russian soldiers mixed together and could not recognize who was who. Everyone followed Ilya's large army towards the center of Vinnitsa.
