Chapter 3232 Army Commander
"I have always adhered to my duty as a soldier and did not easily get involved in politics. Ren Yixin ran the Southern Theater Company. I thought that the conspiracy in the court had nothing to do with me.
But I didn't expect to end up getting involved in this whirlpool. "
"As I said, I have received the news that the so-called minister has been waiting for you to come to the imperial capital. So, you can find any excuse now to excuse yourself. As long as you are in the Southern Army, no one will dare to touch you."
"Then General Mulder will definitely lead his guards directly to attack me."
"No, the internal situation is so chaotic now.
As the strongest general in the empire, you must abide by the imperial capital, which means that you will at least have a certain amount of time to buffer. "
"That's right."
Pollard on the side finally calmed down and agreed with Xiaozhi's opinion. Now he was just questioning the general.
"That guy didn't dare to blame the general directly, so he only took the general and deceived him into the imperial capital. At that time, the general's life and death in the imperial capital was unpredictable."
"When the time comes, won't it be easy for that guy to punish the general?"
Seeing that Pollard was also echoing, Lewan fell into a long silence, but he did not express his position for a long time.
"General..."
Looking at the silent Lewan, Pollard reluctantly gathered himself together.
"Let me think about it," Lewan said.
"Fine."
Xiaozhi stood up and walked out of the room first, followed closely by Sayu, but Pollard remained standing in Lewan's office.
"Go ahead."
Lewan said.
Pollard looked troubled, but still obeyed Lewan's order and walked out of the office.
Early the next morning.
Xiaozhi received an invitation from Lewan.
Came to his office.
Lewan was sitting at his desk trying to calm down. When he saw Xiaozhi walking in, he raised his hand and gestured forward to indicate that Xiaozhi should sit opposite him.
"Why did you call me here so early?"
"I still plan to go to Lido."
Lewan said after a moment of silence.
"You're so anxious to die."
"I thought about it for a long time last night. Indeed, the plan you mentioned should be the most appropriate. But..."
Xiaozhi didn't mean to be angry at all.
asked quietly.
"Of course I will do what you said. I will just find a reason to excuse you and then be my warlord here."
"But I can't do it. I worked hard as a young man and joined the army at the age of 16. To reach this point today is because of my accumulated experience in battle and the emperor's acquaintance."
"Since he ordered me to go back, I will naturally obey. This is one, and the second is if I don't go to the imperial capital to prove my innocence."
"Even if General Mulder does not come to fight, the two military lines near us will be ordered to send troops to fight. The stability that the south finally gained will be broken again.
The people will fall into war again, and I don't want that. "
"So for these two reasons, you let yourself die in vain.
You are such a saint. "
Xiaozhi looked at Lewan with some mockery and said.
"How can you say that this is a wasted death? Ernesto has just become a great god and is willing to cover the sky with one hand.
His Majesty the Emperor will not completely trust him. It would be dangerous for me to resign, but it is far from a narrow escape. "
Xiaozhi looked at Lewan with a frown, but saw a decision in his eyes.
Hao looked at him casually.
"It seems I can't convince you anymore."
"That's right." Lewan laughed and said, stroking his beard.
"Even if I go and kill the Imperial Inspector now, it will be useless?"
Xiaozhi asked.
In the fortress, the imperial inspector who was wandering around suddenly snorted.
He kept looking around in a daze.
Lewan said, "By killing him, you just added another crime on my way to the empire."
"You clearly know that you will die..."
"I don't know, don't talk nonsense," Lewan laughed again, "I hope I can come back alive.
Don't be so crow-mouthed. Don't look so serious. I'll tell you to come over. I have something to ask of you. "
"What's up."
"I would like to ask you to take charge of the Southern Army while Pollard and I go to the Empire."
"It seems you are not too stupid to know that you need to take Boland with you."
"Of course. I don't want to commit suicide in the middle of the road."
"Do you just trust us so much?" Xiaozhi said even Lewan.
"Don't forget we could be spies or something."
"Maybe." Lewan said with two nods without hesitation.
"Maybe you are spies.
But I believe you will never harm the people of the empire at all. Do you remember the first time we met? You were burying a little boy at that time.
The compassion and anger you showed at that time definitely came from your heart. It was sympathy and compassion for the weak.
This cannot be faked. "
Seeing Lewan's sincere eyes, Xiaozhi felt a little unnatural, and said while reading:
"Can.
Then you should come back early if you don't want me to make a mess here. "
"That's natural." Lewan smiled, "I won't keep you waiting too long."
Lewan quickly completed the handover with He Xiaozhi, preparing to lead Pollard and his trusted guards to follow the imperial inspector towards the capital.
After a series of pleasantries, Xiaozhi stood on the city wall and watched them turn into black spots. There was nothing thrilling in the next month.
The foreigners in the south have been beaten down and dare not come to cause trouble.
Xiaozhi maintained those obvious routines and practiced regularly.
The soldiers in the fortress learned from them and occasionally made announcements in their spare time.
Then another month passed.
The bad news still came.
General Lewan was convicted of colluding with southern aliens.
Because he had guarded the south for many years and had done a lot of hard work, he was put into prison first and awaited review.
Deputy General Boland contradicted him in court and was injured by General Mulder. He was being treated in the general's final camp.
It is said to be treatment, but in reality it is house arrest.
Xiaozhi looked at the embarrassed soldiers beside him and said,
"And you were killed by unknown people on the way back.
Only three people escaped alive? "
"Yes."
The soldier who escaped was dizzy and his voice was trembling unconsciously.
Even though he had rested for a night, he had not recovered from the chase he had endured before.
"I've worked hard on you, go and rest first."
Seeing the soldiers walking out with some staggering steps, Xiaozhi couldn't help but rubbed his brow and leaned back, hearing soft footsteps coming from the side.
Sayu came behind him and gently rubbed his temples.
"Thanks."
The sound coming from the back of his head made Xiaozhi feel a little better.
He looked up at the opening one after another, and saw Sayu with a shy face, which seemed to be a derivative of the gaze, making him even more shy. *
