Chapter 754: Hostage the Northern Territory General Administration (Part 2)
In the Northern Territory General Administration's office, there were more than a dozen stoves burning with blazing fire.
A stack of important confidential documents in the Northern Territory General Administration were thrown into the furnace by the officials who had just been urgently summoned to the administration.
Under the command of Humphrey, the officials of the Northern Territory Administration carried out the destruction of documents in an orderly manner.
Some people are responsible for collecting confidential documents within the government office.
A group of people were responsible for throwing these confidential documents into the furnace.
Some people are responsible for promptly cleaning up the ashes after burning documents.
"Your Majesty the Governor! The enemy has already reached the door of the government office and is now starting to knock on the door!"
The enemy army attacking Baidi City had already broken through Baidi City and rushed into the city.
This enemy force does not seem to have any interest in the civilians of Baidi City.
After rushing into Baidi City, they went straight to the Northern Territory General Administration Office.
"Hold the door! It's a little more time to buy yourself a little more time!"
Humphrey picked up a stack of documents in his arms and threw them into the stove, while ordering the government office to be guarded.
"Yarlin! How many documents are left to be processed?!"
Humphrey gave Yalin the task of collecting documents in the government office that needed to be destroyed immediately.
"Your Majesty the Governor! Only this last bit is left!"
Arlin pointed to a cart behind him.
This small cart was stacked with the last bits of paperwork that could not be taken away by the enemy.
"Okay! Everyone, work harder!"
Humphrey inspired his men around him.
"This is the last bit of paperwork! We have sent a request for help to Captain Cheng of Avalon Fortress! Captain Cheng's rescue will arrive in a few days! So don't worry, everyone!"
Humphrey didn't know that the messenger he sent to Su Cheng at Avalon Fortress was intercepted by the generals of Sheeran's army as soon as they left Baidi City.
In order to prevent the Northern Territory Administration in Baidi City from asking for help, El ambushed a group of soldiers outside each gate of Baidi City.
Specially intercept and kill all messengers leaving Baidi City.
Therefore, Humphrey's messenger who went to Su Cheng for help was intercepted and killed by the Xilan Army team ambushing outside the city gate as soon as he left Baidi City.
After Humphrey and others threw the last bit of paperwork that needed to be destroyed into the furnace, the door to the headquarters of the Northern Territory Administration was finally knocked open...
…
…
El slowly walked into the headquarters of the Northern Territory Administration of the Britannia Empire, which was in a mess.
Although the headquarters of the Northern Territory Administration is in a mess,
But there are almost no signs of fighting.
In the headquarters hall of the Northern Territory General Administration, the officials of the Northern Territory General Administration who had been successfully captured were tied up. They looked at Ai who was slowly walking towards them with either anger, despair, or plain eyes. you.
In the hall of the headquarters, there are still a dozen stoves with extinguished flames.
In each furnace, there are still a lot of ashes from burned paper.
There are also a large number of papers with different contents scattered on the floor of the hall.
--I see……
El looked at the stove in the headquarters hall and the scattered papers on the ground, and continued to think to himself:
——It seems that the officials of the Northern Territory General Administration destroyed all the important documents and files in the General Administration before we broke into the headquarters...
——It’s really amazing. They don’t panic in the face of danger. Even if the enemy is about to attack, they still don’t forget their responsibilities as officials of the Northern Territory General Administration. They are really a group of people worthy of admiration.
——Looking at it, they must have destroyed all the important documents and files in the General Administration.
El was not interested in these important documents and files of the Northern Territory General Administration, and this was not why he attacked Baidi City, so he no longer paid attention to the documents and files scattered around.
El moved his eyes and looked at the officials of the Northern Territory Administration who were now tied up and forced to sit on the cold floor of the hall.
Although he didn't know Humphrey and had never seen Humphrey's portrait, El could still tell at a glance that one of the old men was Humphrey.
Because his eyes and temperament are different from others.
El slowly walked towards Humphrey, who was successfully captured by him, and said to him in skilled and fluent Britannia:
"Your Excellency is the Governor of the North—Mr. Humphrey, right?"
Three years ago, El came to the Britannia Empire with Gabriel and Camille.
It was then that El, Camille, and Gabriel learned Britannia.
It's just that Gabriel really has no talent for learning languages, and he can't speak Britannia as fluently and standardly as El and Camille.
Humphrey was slightly surprised that the young Hiran in front of him could speak such fluent and standard Britannia, and his eyebrows were slightly raised in surprise.
Even though he was captured by the enemy, Humphrey's face did not show any abnormal color, his expression was calm, and his waist was still straight.
Humphrey did not talk nonsense to Erdo, and admitted very frankly:
"Yes, I am the Northern Governor of the Britannia Empire - Humphrey Walker. Since I have become a prisoner of my subordinates, I have nothing to say about it. I will let you do whatever you want."
"Long respected name, Sir Humphrey, I am El Bernard, the third-class quartermaster of the Holy Hiran Empire."
After saying that, El gave Humphrey a Britannian Empire salute.
"El Bernard? This name doesn't sound like a Hiran name. This name sounds like a Rollin name."
"It's normal that my name doesn't sound like a Hiran name, because I have no father or mother, and I have lived in the slums since I can remember, so I don't know what my surname and first name are."
"In order to make it easier for others to call me, I and a brother who lived with me in the slums and also had no name, with the help of a bookworm who only knew how to read books all day, picked up a book from the trash can, selected a few names from the book, and gave us both a name."
"I named myself El Bernard, and my brother named himself Gabriel Galen."
"We later found out that the book we used at that time was a fairy tale book that included several fairy tales of the Rollin Empire, so my brother and I didn't name Hiran, but Rollin names."
"Without a father or a mother, even my own name is given by myself from the book... So... I'm so sorry, I was rude just now."
Even if I became a prisoner, Humphrey also did not forget to be polite.
After realizing that he seemed to have touched someone's sore spot, even though this person was now his enemy, Humphrey still bowed slightly and apologized to him.
"Don't apologize." El waved his hand at Humphrey, "I don't care. Although I don't have parents, I have two close friends who are as close as brothers and sisters, so I never think that not having parents is such a pity."
The nearby Hilan people and the captured officials of the Northern Territory General Administration were all stunned.
El and Humphrey, who were obviously enemies, could actually chat there like nothing happened.
El once again gave Humphrey a Britannian salute, and then continued:
"Sir Humphrey, I have no intention of hurting you. As long as Captain Cheng can agree to one of my conditions, I will release you immediately and will never hurt you. Please rest assured."
"Condition?" Sir Humphrey frowned, "What condition?"
"I hope that the officials of the Northern Territory General Administration present here will exchange for the safety of some people in the Aighar Corridor and Muhavitz Fortress!"
