The command cabin of the Glory was now overwhelmed. The unconvincing naval officers spread the anger of defeat on the battlefield on Hoff, but they were right. Hoff's command in this battle was completely defeated.

But Hoff himself doesn't think so. From beginning to end, he believes that the responsibility is someone else's, the incompetence of his subordinates, the powerless army, and the problems in all aspects of the empire.

What's even more terrible is that the queen's confidant is really too face-saving and has an extremely stubborn personality!

Today, when I saw so many subordinates targeting him, my face turned red and shouted, "Give an order! I don't believe that the Army dares not listen to my orders? I am the commander-in-chief, and I am the person in charge of the entire battle!"

"I see who dares to disobey the rights given by the empire!"

When the conflict reached this point, both sides were already trembling with anger. After all, Hoff was the commander. These senior officers could refute him, but the soldiers below did not dare.

Soon the strongly worded flags were sent to Spicy Island, and the Army and Navy correspondents were always paying attention to the Commander-in-Chief's new orders.

"Commander General Hoff has given an order! We are asking us to attack the central town immediately..."

"The commander-in-chief requires us to use our absolute superior force to defeat the rebellious Chinese... regardless of life or death!"

The commander of the Fourth Division of the Imperial Guards was the commander of the Imperial Guards. He was the most senior commander closest to the central town, and the other two commanders didn't know where to command the battle, which shows the chaos of the battle.

"Notify Hoff... There are more than 300 wounded soldiers in our army in the town. The enemy uses wounded soldiers as hostages, so we cannot launch an attack!"

"But..." The communication soldier wanted to say something, but was scolded by everyone.

"But what? This is an order. How can you have the right to refute? Go out..."

The correspondent himself is a member of the Navy, and he was temporarily assigned to the Army to communicate information. Today, the Army itself is full of anger and believes that he has no good attitude towards him.

The angry correspondent ran out of the temporary command center and quickly came to the commanding heights of the beach to give the Army's reply to the Glorious Reward.

"The Army refused to accept orders, and there were wounded soldiers from the Army in the town, and they refused to attack..."

"If the commander forces the attack, please do it yourself..."

I am really not afraid of no good things, but I am afraid of no good people. Hoff has really cramped in his brain, so why did he find such a jealous villain who is vengeful and vengeful as a correspondent? This out of nothing happened and immediately angered Hoff.

"A bastard who goes to hell! He dares to ignore my orders, and he dares to mock me!"

"The cowards who lost the Imperial Army Souls! They are all cowards..."

"I don't need them anymore...I don't need them anymore...Fire a cannon for me, and send all warships to fire immediately! Completely blow up that town!"

Of course, Hoff could not go to the battlefield by himself, but don’t forget that he has cannons in his hand, and they are large-caliber naval guns. These 140 and 150 caliber artillery are now the strongest firepower on the entire battlefield!

"No! No... The army's wounded soldiers are in the town, how can you massacre friendly troops? You are treason!"

Hoff's life completely angered the officers. These naval generals were not rootless trees. These people were elite trained by the Imperial Naval Academy, and almost every family was not simple.

Some were the descendants of the nobles and some were the heirs of the big capital family. These were all forces that Napoleon III had to rely on, and these people would not be afraid of him.

"I am the commander! I have the right to give orders!"

"Sorry, we will not execute your orders, and our subordinates will definitely not execute them!"

For a warship, the captain is the well-deserved first person, but he himself cannot command the entire warship!

His men must have various people to assist him, such as deputy captain, first mate, second mate, engineer, communications chief, guns and cannon chief, internal affairs chief, etc., and other officers with different functions jointly manage.

This is a cooperation with the captain and also a constraint on the captain's rights. After all, the navy is a very special branch of the army.

On the vast sea, warships carry deadly weapons, and they are rampant around the world and far away from the local area, so the country's binding force on this warship will be relatively reduced.

Just imagine how London commands the British warship sailing in the Pacific? What if the captain rebelled?

This requires checks and balances of rights. For example, if the artillery captain questioned the captain's firing order, he could ask the officers of the entire ship to discuss together, or even refuse to execute the order.

Although this situation is rare, it at least curbed the situation where the captain's dominance is the only one.

Even the Interior Chief has the right to check and balance the captain, that is money. He can stop the captain from spending money indiscriminately!

Today, Hoff offended all the officials, and his order was completely rejected by these officers. The gunman of the Glory even blocked the brass horn used to communicate with his hands. Hoff's orders could not be heard by the gunners on the main deck.

"Sir... we will never accept such a life-threatening situation. Navy shells cannot be used to massacre friendly forces!"

"Without my order, the cannon of the Glory cannot shoot at the central town!"

"Are you going to rebel?" The blue veins on Hoff's forehead jumped!

"Commander! Are we rebelling? We can defend ourselves in the military court after we return home! But now you want to massacre your own people, then we will definitely not agree!"

Hoff pointed at Spike Island and said with a trembling finger, "It's just a little bit, it's almost a little bit to wipe out all these Chinese people!"

"We have lost so much, are we watching the Prussians rescue these damn Chinese? You are committing a crime..."

"You are committing crimes... crimes... crimes..."

But no one was willing to listen to Hoff's orders. The many officers in the command cabin looked at him coldly and did not speak. His orders could not be carried out without these people nodding.

Hoff understood everything from these people's eyes. He smelled the scent of conspiracy. He suddenly realized that these damn subordinates were about to treat themselves as victims!

This rebellion is just a chain of evidence in the future military court. These people are not the wounded soldiers who really love the army. They are just pretending.

They pretended to perform such a "rebellion" drama, which was ultimately to prove to the world that they were not the same as themselves, and that their judgment in this battle was completely opposite to themselves.

In other words, the responsibility for the failure of this battle lies entirely with Hoff!

"Okay, okay...you're very good... Since you are willing to rebel and seize power, then take it...I won't command this battle anymore!"

Hoff snatched the door and ran out!

At the same time, there was a sudden chaos on Spike Island. Before these naval officers could stop Hoff, they were attracted by the situation on the island.
Chapter completed!
