I Will Be The Crowned King - Vol 5 Chapter 16
, the fastest update I will be crowned king latest chapter!
The moment the voice fell, the whole room was silent.
Clovis City’s quick response and decisive decision were indeed beyond Anson’s expectations. He originally thought that even if those from the royal family and the Army Department were going to treat him as a traitor, the earliest he would have to wait for him to arrive in the capital was to use various methods. This kind of excuse and means separates himself from the Storm Legion, deprives himself of his military power, and does not act until it is completely empty.
As a result, I had just arrived in Beigang, and the arrest order was sent so impatiently, and it was not me alone, but also the entire Storm Legion, which was a little surprising – when the rebels were arrested, the general manager The commander to the grass-roots officers never let it go. Isn’t this forcing the Storm Legion to rebel?
But more important than the attitude of Clovis City is the attitude of the allies: Viscount Bogner made a special trip to inform himself in advance, proving that he is very aware of the seriousness of this matter, and the mayor of North Harbor has more expressions on his face. It was shocking and incredible, that is, he just learned about it.
In other words, at least their alliance was sincere, not a deliberate trap… An Sen secretly said in his heart.
This is not because I think too much, it is purely because the Storm Legion is too passive at the moment, and has no initiative at all; whether life or death depends on the attitude of Clovis City, dealing with allies who come to the door, more There is no eligibility for refusal.
Under the tense atmosphere of silence, An Sen, who calmly completed the preliminary judgment, nodded slightly and looked at Carl with a heavy face: “Thank you, I understand.”
“What are you going to do?” Karl couldn’t wait to ask, the sweat on his face didn’t know whether it was because he ran too hastily or because he was too nervous:
“The people from the Ministry of War were temporarily detained at the station by the Cecil family, but it must not be too long. Once they arrive, you will be the first to be arrested!”
“Then let them come.”
Anson said with a casual chuckle, and then thought about it seriously: “So… since they are at the station, then I will go to meet them with Alan Dwayne now; in addition, you hurry back to the station and inform everyone in the legion to return immediately, Awaiting orders.”
Welcome, welcome?
The three of them were stunned on the spot, all of them staring at the commander-in-chief of the Storm Legion with expressions of “probably something wrong with their ears”.
But An Sen was not going to explain any more, he patted the dazed little secretary on the shoulder, and the two walked straight out of the room.
“Uh, Lord, Lord Anson!”
As soon as he walked out of the room, Alan Dawn, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly stepped forward to stop him, his usual calmness seemed a little helpless at the moment: “That, that… I personally express my sincere gratitude to your behavior of obeying the law. Approval and admiration, but sometimes we have to do things in order to ensure the greater good… ostensibly against the rules!”
“For example, now… As your secretary, I strongly disapprove of your actions to meet with the dispatchers from the War Department! This incident is obviously the malicious use of the current system to inflict unprovoked harm on you, no matter how you evaluate it from any point of view. , are extremely despicable practices, and there is absolutely no need to ignore them!”
The little clerk was a little excited: “I personally think it is recommended to use the rules in reverse, in accordance with the revised method for handling suspected illegal officers in the seventy-eighth year of the Saint Calendar, and require the Ministry of War to provide at least clear evidence of the rebellion of the Storm Legion. And the arrest warrant issued by His Majesty himself, more or less, can at least buy you fifteen days to two months…”
“Ellen.”
Gently pressing the little secretary’s shoulder, An Sen interrupted: “Enough, we don’t need to do this.”
Alan Dawn pursed the corners of his mouth tightly, and although he stopped speaking, his face was almost filled with a pessimistic expression of disapproval.
“I understand that you are doing this to avoid me falling into the trap set by those people, but have you ever thought that our reaction is likely to be expected by the other party, or even part of the trap?” Anson asked back:
“It is precisely because the enemies are such despicable villains that, as true loyal ministers of the kingdom, we must defeat them and defeat them with dignified means; because they will definitely think that we are the same despicable, inferior and shameless as them. , there is only profit in sight.”
“We have to defeat them with integrity and defeat them; let them know that there is still integrity and loyalty in this world!”
Kang’s excited An Sen could even see the sparkling brilliance from the young secretary’s suddenly enlightened expression.
“I understand, your plan is to use the choices the enemy thinks we will definitely make, to do the opposite, to make the other party misjudgment that ‘The Storm Legion is a good person with integrity’, and then use the one you are most familiar with. Use the means to defeat them!” The little secretary repeatedly praised:
“As expected of Mr. An Sen, your plans will always be so humble… Perfect without flaws!”
Anson Bach: “…Ellen.”
“grown ups?”
“That… If I don’t take the initiative to speak in the future or when it’s just the two of us, I don’t say it, and you don’t have to explain those things that we all understand.”
“Yes!”
…………
Storm Legion station, public cafeteria.
Although he couldn’t understand someone’s thoughts at all, Carl Bain assembled all the officers as instructed, and announced the decision of the War Department to everyone.
“…It’s probably like this. Even if we want to do something now, it’s too late.” The chief of staff sighed and looked at the colleagues in front of him with tangled and complicated eyes: “The commander-in-chief has gone to the station to welcome the War Department. People, at the latest tonight, all of you will know about this from public channels.”
“I don’t know what you all think, or you have already learned about this in advance through your respective channels, so let me tell you my personal opinion: Clovis City has not planned to give us any time to rest from the beginning. , the matter of escorting the capital for interrogation was discussed by the adults from the very beginning.”
“If it hadn’t happened that we came back a day earlier, and if it hadn’t happened that the Cecil family had a good relationship with us, then… we might not even have the scenery we had yesterday, and we were declared traitors in public when we got off the boat, and were taken away. .”
“No, not a traitor, but a suspect.”
Norton Crosell said silently: “According to the laws of the kingdom, unless there is a clear crime and is sentenced on the spot, the officers who need to be escorted for interrogation can only be regarded as suspects – to put it more euphemistically, that is, there are criminal suspects but People with no real evidence.”
“What’s the difference between a traitor and a suspect?” Alexei, who was sitting next to him, rolled his eyes: “Anyway, once you get caught in Clovis City and go to court, they won’t be convicted anyway. thing?!”
“On the contrary, it’s really not that simple.”
Julien put his hands on the table and explained while thinking: “Although the people of the War Department have the right to arrest us and even set us up for crimes in theory, the court of sentencing and the right to deprive us of military rank are in the In the hands of the Privy Council and His Majesty himself.”
“So as long as Your Majesty and the nobles of the Privy Council don’t think that we and the commander-in-chief are traitors, it’s useless to call the people in the War Department, right?” Leo looked at the others uncertainly:
“In other words, this matter… is there a chance for a turnaround?”
As soon as the words fell, the officers who looked at each other, including Carl himself, all looked in the same direction.
“It is true, but I also advise you not to be too optimistic.”
In the corner of the room, the messy Fabian hugged his shoulders, lowered his head and whispered, deliberately avoiding everyone’s attention: “After all, our enemy this time is the entire Ministry of the Army.”
The words of the deputy commander of the legion echoed through the walls, although he could barely hear it clearly, but it was as heavy as Hong Zhong Dalu, smashing heavily on everyone’s chest.
“The entire War Department… so what?!”
Alexey stood up and looked at Fabian in confusion: “We even won the jihadist army, and we are afraid of a group of people hiding in the rear to eat leisure… Don’t pull me!”
Norton, who had his right hand thrown off, looked at the gazes around him and could only sneer twice.
“Yeah, what about being an enemy of the entire War Department?” The deputy commander of the legion nodded slightly, but still did not open his eyes: “Lieutenant Colonel Alexei Dukasky, you are from the empire and do not understand the key to this. One thing I can totally understand.”
“Let’s put it this way, within the Empire, you can annoy a certain lord, a certain duke, or even the emperor himself; that’s fine, because their powers are limited, as long as they’re not in the territories they control, or you avoid them people, you can be safe and sound, and even be a guest of honor for other people.”
“But in any case, you can’t offend the entire ‘knight’ class, at least you can’t do something that will make all knights kill you quickly. That’s a real suicide.” Fabian raised his voice slightly:
“In the Empire it’s knights, in Clovis… it’s the Army, or everyone who is in the business; to annoy the War Department is to annoy the standing army of hundreds of thousands of Clovis, plus at least two or three times that number of levies. ”
Alexei was startled.
“Of course, this kind of thing doesn’t happen in most cases. After all, even if they are soldiers, they may not necessarily be united with each other. It is a normal scene with many conflicts; as for the Ministry of War… they can’t fully represent the interests of the entire army. , and even many times there is a conflict of interest with the legion below.” Fabian sighed:
“But this time is an exception.”
“Hey, why?” Alexei didn’t understand: “We also started from the conscription corps. We worked hard to become a standing army, and we didn’t grab anyone’s place or offend anyone’s interests, right?”
“On the contrary, the existence of our group of people is the greatest violation of their interests.” Fabian smiled contemptuously:
“From the Omen Corps to having a standing army, it’s enough to make all the officers of the Omen Corps jealous enough to want to kill.”
“Because we have become a standing army, we have squeezed out a large number of standing army veterans. After all, the money bag is in the hands of the Privy Council. Even if we have a few thousand more people, the budget cannot really increase the size of a standing army immediately. .”
“What’s more, from the Hantu War, to the battle of Yinsel Royal Court, and then to the independence war of the colony, it really depends on military merit, the Storm Legion has more or less defeated the Empire’s legion twice, while the local standing army has been in the past two years. It can be said that there is no victory.” Carl also sighed:
“Although there are many other reasons, who can easily swallow this breath?”
“In addition to our commander-in-chief, we started out with the support of the most hated Franz family in the Army. In less than three years, he became a brigadier general from a small captain.” Leo is also deeply Feeling:
“Don’t talk about other people, when I first saw him, I was so jealous that I wanted to give him a shot!”
“Under the confounding of various factors, the current Storm Legion in the army is already in a state of being shouted and beaten by everyone.” Fabian concluded: “As long as the Ministry of War is a little bit of fire, we can easily use us to unite more than a dozen people. Vanclow’s army.”
“Our group of people is the best living target and the best sacrifice – turning the Storm Legion into a Clovis sinner will make the Clovis Army achieve unprecedented unity!”
“Then what are we going to do?” Alexey finally panicked: “I can’t really be taken back by the Ministry of War and tried in court, right?”
“This … part of it depends on us.” Fabian raised his head and glanced at Carl opposite: “If you can make up your mind, leave the Storm Legion and return to where you used to be, or simply retire, the Army It shouldn’t be too difficult to think about.”
“However, with everyone’s loyalty to the commander-in-chief, this kind of thing should never happen, so the matter came to the second link – what to do to avoid the worst outcome. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com”
“If you want me to tell you, you don’t have to be so troublesome!” Leo, who was impatient, snorted, and looked at everyone gloomily: “Since they are also newcomers, and the Cecil family is also on our side, let’s just… ”
“Wait a moment!”
Cal, who was trying to stay calm, hurriedly interrupted, his head buzzing: “I think it’s more appropriate to keep this kind of overly extreme plan as a killer until the end – of course, it’s more appropriate if you don’t use it!”
“I agree that if the people from the War Department openly die in North Harbor, our alliance with the Cecil family is likely to be unsustainable.” Norton nodded: “On the contrary, we must do everything we can to ensure their safety. , to avoid carrying violent disobedience, which is a clear violation of the law.”
“Then what do you think we should do?!” Alexei looked rather irritated: “Wait until tonight, we may all be arrested!”
“Yeah, once it’s brought to court, things can’t be undone.” Fabian thought thoughtfully: “That’s true for us, then…”
“What about them?”
