In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

(二九五四 六二三 一三)

A moment later, at the door of the commander-in-chief's office.

The Iron Bucket Zombie hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and knocked gently on the door.

"Come in."

An Tie took a deep breath, opened the door and walked into the office.

Seeing the iron barrel zombie walking into the office, the commander-in-chief pointed to the sofa beside him: "You're here, sit down."

"Yes."

He walked to the sofa and sat down carefully, waiting for the commander-in-chief's reaction.

The commander-in-chief got up from his office chair, walked to the opposite side of Dark Iron, and poured him a cup of tea:

"How about trying some tea? I got it from an old friend of Zhongyuan. You know, Zhongyuan's tea is very famous in the empire."

"Thank you... Thank you, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief."

An Tie was stunned for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself and took the steaming tea from the commander-in-chief's hand.

"how?"

The commander-in-chief poured himself a glass and asked casually.

“It tastes great.”

Although An Tie's tea-tasting skills can only be described by the phrase "cow chewing peonies and wasting natural resources", at this moment, he cannot refute the commander-in-chief's face.

Even if he will be removed from his post soon, he is still the commander-in-chief of War Base No. 59 at this moment.

An Tie complimented him and put down the teacup in his hand.

"Excuse me, Commander-in-Chief, do you have anything to do with your subordinates?"

The commander-in-chief nodded, and then said: "Well, I am very pleased to hear that you achieved great results with minimal losses and captured War Garden No. 5926 in one fell swoop."

"Everywhere, it's you..."

An Tie, who was about to say, "It's your command that is excellent," suddenly stopped talking. The commander-in-chief had just been dismissed due to a command error. If he said this again, wouldn't it be adding salt to the wound?

It's true that Dark Iron has a tough head, but being stupid and being stupid are obviously two different things.

"It's all your teachings."

The Iron Barrel Zombie said this, and he was very happy that he had an idea.

The commander-in-chief smiled mockingly to himself: "There is a way to teach... Ha... There is a way to teach..."

"Uh... I'm sorry, Commander-in-Chief, did you say something wrong?"

Seeing the commander-in-chief's performance, An Tie couldn't help but be stunned.

"No, it's nothing. Don't worry about it. By the way, Antie, how long have you... been in the army?"

The commander-in-chief asked as if he remembered something.

The Iron Bucket Zombie thought for a while and replied: "Eight years. At the age of sixteen, due to livelihood constraints, he joined the army and stayed in the training camp for three years. After that, he was dispatched to War Zone 59."

"Well, I've read your information. You came from an ordinary background. Both parents died. You have been wandering in the zombie city since you were a child. You joined the army at the age of sixteen and won the title of chief in the recruit training camp.

After that, he was dispatched to War Base No. 59, and was promoted step by step from a third-class soldier to his current commander, not relying on his background but his own abilities. "

The commander-in-chief recounted An Tie's experience and took another sip of tea.

"Whether it's your personal strength, your tactical literacy, or the morale of the troops you lead...

Among the many undead leaders at War Base No. 59, they are among the best.

If I can continue to serve as the commander-in-chief of Theater 59, then I have indeed begun to train you to take over my position.

However, now this idea is just talk..."

An Tie couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat when he heard the commander-in-chief's words, followed by a burst of ecstasy.

He didn't expect that the commander-in-chief would actually view him this way, and even wanted to train him to take over War Base No. 59.

But before the joy in the Iron Barrel Zombie's heart could rise much, it was immediately suppressed by him.

Who knows what the commander-in-chief means when he says this? Is it possible that it was to win over him?

But that's not right. The commander-in-chief is about to be removed from his post, so what's the point of wooing him?

Could it be that there is something in him worthy of the commander-in-chief’s investment? This is not impossible, after all, his achievements were achieved with practical fists.

For a moment, An Tie didn't understand the commander-in-chief's intention, so he could only remain silent and pretend that he was listening carefully.

"I know that because of my wrong judgment and arrogance, the empire lost two entire armies in Theater 59.

Therefore, the staff of the military department united and wrote a letter to the commander-in-chief of the military department, the Imperial Military God, denouncing my dereliction of duty.

Fortunately, I have been working at War Base No. 59 for many years, and I have worked hard without any credit, so the military department just asked me to pack my things and prepare to leave in three months. "

When the commander-in-chief said this, he immediately changed the subject.

“But I didn’t expect that I had just received the notification from the military department and this matter had already spread in the base.

It seems that once something happens to me, some people can’t hide their thoughts..."

Before he finished speaking, the commander-in-chief gave An Tie a meaningful look: "An Tie, what do you think?"

The commander-in-chief actually knew everything, but in front of the commanders, he still pretended to be ignorant.

The long rant at today's meeting might just be a show for the commanders to enjoy.

Noticing the Commander-in-Chief's gaze, the Iron Barrel Zombie immediately became alert, but on the surface he still pretended not to notice anything.

But how could his little thoughts be hidden from the experienced commander-in-chief? However, he just smiled and pretended not to notice.

After all, Dark Iron is not as thoughtful as other undead leaders, and is a controllable being.

Moreover, he has a very fatal weakness.

Dark Iron looks as cold as steel, but in fact it attaches great importance to the friendship between comrades.

The elite troops he commanded had such high morale precisely because the Iron Barrel Zombies loved their soldiers like their own children.

It can be said that these elite soldiers who follow Dark Iron are his biggest weakness.

As long as you hold this handle in your hand, no matter how careful the Iron Barrel Zombie is, it won't be able to cause much trouble.

"My subordinate... my allegiance is to the empire and to the supreme leader. No matter who is the commander-in-chief of Base 59 in the future, I will do my best to assist him."

An Tie's words of loyalty made the commander-in-chief very satisfied.

"Okay, okay, I'm very satisfied that you have this idea. I called you here today not just to praise you, but to talk to you about two things."

"Please tell me."

"The first thing is that after I leave my post, many commanders in the base will definitely start competing with each other to compete for the seat of commander-in-chief.

The period before the emergence of a new commander-in-chief is also the most vulnerable period for War Base 59.

I need a suitable commander, that is, you, to stabilize the situation in War Zone 59 for me, or for the empire. "

As soon as these words came out, An Tie could not help but widen his eyes.

"In return, I will temporarily transfer the command of the only Thirteenth Army Group that is still under my control to you. At the same time, I will also recommend you to the new commander-in-chief."

"New...commander-in-chief?"

"That's right, the other undead leaders except you would never have thought that the position of commander-in-chief of Theater No. 59 has been determined by the military.

They will send an extremely good newcomer to take over my position and take over Theater 59. "

Upon hearing this, the Iron Bucket Zombie couldn't control his emotions and asked the commander in chief:

"What's unique about this newcomer? Why can he take over War Zone 59?"

If a veteran was sent, Dark Iron would not have such a huge reaction.

But when he heard that he was a newcomer, he immediately felt that the military department's behavior was simply disrespectful to any soldier of the empire who was fighting on the front line.

"Don't be impatient, An Tie, I know that as the frontline commander, you naturally don't want a newcomer who knows nothing to take over the command.

However, this newcomer is definitely not what you imagine, a playboy who comes to the army to gild the army with no knowledge or skills. "

The commander-in-chief waved his hand, indicating to the Iron Barrel Zombie to listen to what he continued to say.

"But...why?"

"It's very simple, just because the other party is the next Imperial Military God personally recognized by His Majesty the Head of State, and he is also the chief student of the current Imperial Military God."

Hearing the Commander-in-Chief's words, An Tie fell silent.

"Sorry, my subordinate lost his temper."

Whether he is the Head of State or the Imperial Military God, the commander-in-chief who has such a close relationship with them is definitely not an ordinary person.

If the other party takes over War Base No. 59, they will definitely be able to do better than the current commander-in-chief.

Fortunately, he didn't rush to take sides. Looking at it now, the new commander-in-chief seems to be the best candidate.

"It's too early to make a choice now. Also, be careful about that old guy Newpe Seymour, he's not a good person."

Seemingly sensing what An Tie was thinking, the Commander-in-Chief reminded him leisurely.

"As for the second thing, it's very simple. Do you know why War Zone 59 has been unable to achieve results?"

The iron barrel zombie glanced at the commander-in-chief and whispered: "Uh... isn't it because of you..."

"Ahem, a large part of the responsibility is indeed due to my poor command, but this is not the main reason."

The commander-in-chief blushed and immediately changed the subject.

"what do you mean?"

"Do you... know how to transform into an eggplant?"
