Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

This plan was a win-win, ensuring the safe passage of information while allowing them to proceed discreetly.

Upon hearing this plan, the chiliarchs, though somewhat surprised, quickly carried out the disguise operation out of respect for the Crown Prince's guards.

Rang and the Shadow Guards, dressed in ordinary cavalry attire, appeared inconspicuous in the ranks. They followed the thousand-man cavalry, heading towards the Imperial City. Meanwhile, the cavalrymen dressed as the Crown Prince's guards shouldered the important task of delivering information, spurring their horses towards the Imperial City.

Throughout the entire journey, the chiliarch was unaware of Rang and the others' true identities and purposes,

As Rang walked through the long corridor, clutching the heavy ledger in his hand, his heart was filled with a sense of responsibility and mission.

Finally, he arrived at Leitzer's office and solemnly handed the ledger to him.

Leitzer took the ledger with a puzzled expression, about to open it and examine it, but Rang spoke with a solemn expression.

"Dean Leitzer, His Highness said that if you encounter something you cannot decide, give this to you." Rang's tone was low, revealing a hint of undisguised worry.

Leitzer naturally recognized this outstanding student of the academy and knew that he was already Soren's advisor. He unwrapped the oiled paper, and a booklet was revealed.

Leitzer curiously opened it and looked at it, "Holy Prague Calendar, October 17, 322, the Fifth Army of the Empire, Deputy Commander Mengfei City, 150,000 gold coins, Prince Angeles, 250,000 gold coins; Holy Prague Calendar 323

August 17, take 10% of the military expenses, Anka Wan, 360,000 gold coins, 30% to Prince Angeles, total—"

Leitzer's expression changed drastically at this point. He abruptly closed the ledger, wrapped it in oiled paper, and stuffed it into his arms.

Leitzer asked, "Where did you get this?"

Rang said: "South Sea Province, the southeast Stone Village in Prince Angeles' territory."

"You've really given me something incredible."

Leitzer said with a grim face: "I received news this morning that a thousand-man cavalry team escorting the Shadow Guards back to the Imperial City has completely disappeared."

Rang's movements froze. He looked up at Leitzer, a trace of surprise and unease flashing in his eyes, "Disappeared? Do you mean—."

Leitzer nodded and said, "According to reliable information we have obtained, they have all perished."

Rang's eyes widened.

This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for him. Although the thousand-man cavalry was a smokescreen he had set up, he never expected the enemy to be so ruthless.

"This—how is this possible?" Rang murmured to himself, as if unable to accept this fact,

"They were just escorting, how could—"

Leitzer sighed. He knew that this news was a heavy blow to Rang, this young man.

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Those people are too insane. We must find out the truth as soon as possible and avenge them."

Rang was silent for a moment, then slowly raised his head, his eyes flashing with a firm light, "You're right, Dean. We can't let them sacrifice in vain."

The night was as dark as ink, and all was silent except for the rustling of leaves outside the palace walls in the breeze.

Leitzer, cloaked in a black cloak, hurried through the empty palace square, his heart both excited and nervous.

Tonight, he would personally deliver the ledger exposing the army's corruption scandal to Emperor Gustav.

Once successful, his elder brother Alfonso's position in the army could be further advanced with the help of this Northwestern rebellion, coupled with the full support of the Harun family and the Crown Prince, it was not impossible to become the commander of the Imperial Army.

Entering the palace, the candlelight flickered on both sides of the long corridor, stretching his figure long, like a firm sword piercing the enemy's heart. The guards saw that it was him and saluted and made way. They knew that this vice-president of the Royal Academy would never disturb the emperor late at night unless it was a matter of great importance.

Leitzer arrived in front of the emperor's bedroom. He took a deep breath and gently knocked on the door.

The door was quickly opened, and Emperor Gustav's figure appeared behind the door, with a hint of doubt and expectation in his eyes.

"Leitzer, you've come to see me so late. Is there something urgent?" Gustav's voice was low and powerful.

Leitzer bowed deeply and presented the heavy ledger with both hands. "Your Majesty, this is the army corruption ledger that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has recently investigated. Please take a look."

Gustav took the ledger, his brow furrowed slightly. He knew that Leitzer always acted prudently, and would never present this thing lightly without conclusive evidence.

He opened the ledger and carefully examined it page by page.

The ledger detailed how the high-ranking army officials embezzled military funds, deducted soldiers' rations, and misappropriated public funds for personal use.

Every transaction and every sum was recorded clearly, which was shocking.

As he read on, Gustav's face became more and more gloomy. His hands gripped the ledger tightly, as if to crush the evil record.

Finally, he slammed the ledger shut, his eyes flashing with anger, "These scoundrels! They are so audacious as to openly embezzle public funds from the army!"

Leitzer lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This matter has been investigated and the evidence is conclusive. For the future of the empire, for the soldiers fighting bloody battles on the front lines, we must severely punish these corrupt officials."

Gustav took a deep breath, and the anger in his chest gradually subsided with his breathing. He understood that calmness and decisiveness were crucial at this moment, and there could be no leniency towards corruption in the army. He looked at Leitzer with firm eyes, his voice revealing approval and trust: "Leitzer, you have done very well this time! Harun's loyalty and courage make me feel deeply gratified."

Leitzer lowered his head and responded respectfully: "It is my duty to share Your Majesty's worries."

Gustav nodded slightly, then ordered: "You may withdraw for now and await further instructions." After speaking, he turned to the guard, "Immediately summon the Minister of State, the Minister of Finance, and the Minister of Special Affairs. I want to discuss this matter with them tonight."

The guard obeyed the order and hurried away, not daring to delay in the slightest.

In the night, the lights of the palace were brightly lit, and the three ministers were urgently summoned into the palace.

A storm against the army's corruption case was about to be set off in the power center of the empire.
