It's weird... isn't it here?

There was no answer after knocking on the door for half a minute. The man standing at the door was wondering if someone was not inside, but the door was quietly opened and the muzzle of the gun stuck to the crack of the door made him froze on the spot.

Cold sweat broke out, the man quickly raised his hands to show that he was not hostile, and then glanced at the stairs at the end of the corridor.

Don't, don't get excited... Brother, I'm from General Absek.

Putting the Ten Commander's pistol to his chest, the Zhandi guy pressed him with a blank expression.

Where did you hear my name?

The man spoke quickly.

Mr. Benoit sent a telegram... We probably know that the messenger here is called Pangolin. Don't you have that name?

your name?

Anwo... I told you that you don't even know him.

Hehe, how do you know that I don't know you. Hearing this name, the Zhandi guy smiled meaningfully, and slowly put the gun away.

The person standing here is none other than Anwo, the commander-in-chief of General Absek.

Under normal circumstances, it is unlikely that senior military officers will be sent for this kind of connection, but it is reasonable to put it on an organization that has just been established for less than a month.

After all, it takes time to raise a confidant, whether it's by fooling around or by training.

As for a group of monkey kings who are crowned with monkeys, anyone who can be trusted is basically promoted by them to be a high-ranking officer and brought by their side. Naturally, these senior military officers can only do it in person.

Not only that, but the candidates for different tasks are also particular.

After all, he met with the envoys of the legion before the king of heaven, and if word spread, he would be shot.

Even if they are from the same faction, Absek is not completely trustworthy. At this time, the only one who can be trusted is An Wo who has submitted the nomination certificate.

With the blood debt of the church tragedy, the way to vote for the Legion is blocked, and it is impossible to vote for the Alliance.

If it was someone else who came, the Zhandi guy would probably be vigilant, wondering if it was a fraud.

However, it was this guy named An Wo who came, and he could basically conclude that Absek really wanted to talk to him.

And I hope to talk about it in secret.

Looking at An Wo with a confused face, the Zhandi guy asked with a calm expression on his face.

What did you come to see me for?

I didn't come to look for you, but you were looking for the general... Or why didn't you enter the city, but stayed at the north gate? Who doesn't know that Absek's subordinates are stationed here... Anwo glanced again At the end of the corridor, he said nervously, Can I go in and talk?

First, he was worried about being seen, and second, he was worried that the envoy of the legion would shoot himself down.

He is still not sure whether the legion already knows that the 200 human lives in the church are related to him, let alone why General Absek suddenly wants to meet the envoy of the legion at this time, and of course it is impossible to know that the person in front of him is from the legion. The alien envoys are actually the dark thread of the alliance.

He took great risks to keep the survivors of the church alive, handed in a fake nomination certificate, finally gained the trust of General Absek, and saw that he was getting closer and closer to the core of the conspiracy... …

If you eat peanuts at this time, it would be too wronged!

...You wait for me at the door for two minutes.

He didn't agree to his request to enter the house, and the Zhandi guy closed the door expressionlessly. After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked to Penny who was huddled in the corner.

Shrunk in the blind spot in the corner of the room, Penny looked at him nervously, and asked with her mouth.

……who?

The battlefield guy said seriously.

A man of General Absek.

Penny tensed.

He found us?!

Looking at those eyes full of nervousness, the Zhandi guy moved closer to her ear, and kept his voice very low so that no one outside the door could hear him.

He probably doesn't know you, but he must have noticed me. This place is his territory, but it's not a bad thing... I planned to meet Janusz before the representatives of the alliance contacted him, and asked him about his betrayal. Lord Benoit’s reasons, and then find a way to bring him back to our side.”

Penny felt her earlobes itch from the deep and magnetic sound, but she had already leaned against the corner of the room, and there was no place to hide behind, so she could only shrink her neck.

Betray... Father? She suppressed her soft voice, her incoherent voice was a little out of tune.

Perhaps because of nervousness, the Zhandi guy felt that the breath in his ears was a little disturbed.

Still a little stuffy.

But he didn't have time to observe the expression on Penny's face, so he continued in that very soft and quick voice.

...Yes, didn't I tell you? Lord Benoit planned an operation, but due to the intervention of a stronger financial backer, he bought his partner, causing the whole plan to start from the very beginning. It's out of control.

Penny's eyes widened, her chest heaved.

Yes, it's... who? The benefactor.

Currently the biggest suspect is the Southern Army Corps, and the Eastern Army Corps and the Civil Service Group obviously don't want to fight.

Uncle Rose?! How is this possible!

Do you think a commander is qualified to participate in this kind of thing? He is likely to be a pawn, or even the one that was picked out on purpose...Of course, this is also my guess. Don't take the guess as a clue and write it into the report , I’ll let you know if there’s any new news.”

The field guy is very abstract.

Because now is neither the time to explain clearly, nor is it suitable for her to know everything.

For some reason, this time Penny didn't break the casserole to ask the end, but just gave an obedient hmm.

Satisfied with her reaction, he continued speaking quickly.

You have to remember what I said next. You wait for me here. In any case, don't go out, and don't open the door if anyone knocks. Just pretend that you are not here. If I don't come back at twelve o'clock in the evening, you go to the note I will write down the address and room number of this hotel for you.

Remember! You must take the main road, avoid the fire, and don't go into the alleys! The key to the room is hidden under the flower pot directly opposite the guest room. You will know when you go.

As he said that, the Battlefield guy hurriedly wrote down a line of address on a sticky note and tore it off, fearing that Penny would not be able to find it, he turned out the map and circled the location of the hotel.

The infrastructure of Tiandu is very poor, and the so-called map only has a few traffic arteries, a few abstract landmarks, and large circled blocks.

As for some naturally formed branch roads, it is impossible to mark them on the map.

The four brothers of Yuanjian used drones to take aerial photos of Tianducheng, but he didn't even have a VM, so he couldn't borrow it, so he could only use the local map.

Looking at the map and address handed over by the pangolin, Penny looked at him in surprise.

This is……

I opened another room on the outskirts of the city, which contained a foldable PU-9 submachine gun and 200 rounds of ammunition... You can understand it as a safe house, just in case.

When? Penny opened her eyes in surprise, and the expression in her eyes became even more surprised.

The guy never left her sight.

How did anyone open the room without anyone noticing? !

...I naturally have my own way.

The field guy confused this topic with an inscrutable expression.

This stuff can't be explained.

It's impossible for him to say that he asked someone to help open it on the forum, right?

Anyway, this task has sufficient funds, with the money from Benoit and the manager, he doesn't mind the expense, it's better to be careful.

After explaining everything, he was about to leave when Penny suddenly grabbed his hand.

He turned his head, only to see those bright eyes full of seriousness, looking at him meticulously.

That look was exactly the same as when I sent him away the darkest, and when Kerway entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.

I didn't expect that I would become comrades-in-arms with the reporter.

...you must come back.

The warlord nodded slightly.

Well, I promise.

Don't worry about that alone.

He is unkillable.

...

In the barracks in the northern suburbs of Tiandu, bright bonfires were slowly burning, and soldiers with rifles on their backs patrolled around.

In the tent on the edge of the camp, Lion King Absek was holding a golden lion in his hand, and his rough index finger was playing along the round lines.

This is Wutuo's collection.

Before Janusz turned the imperial palace of Tiandu upside down, found many treasures that Wu Tuo had no time to take away, and rewarded more than half of them to his subordinates.

I have to say that Janusz is really generous to his own people and never eats alone.

It can be seen that that guy has a lot of plans, only people who have the world in their eyes will not care about the treasure in front of them.

It's not bad to follow this kind of boss with clear rewards and punishments.

But it's a pity that he doesn't like to pick up other people's leftovers.

Gently placing the golden lion on the table, he looked at the two people standing in front of the tent.

One of them was Anwo, his confidant, and the other man in the cloak seemed to be the envoy of the Legion.

Looking at his confidant, General Absek said gently.

Go outside and watch for me.

yes.

An Wo gave a military salute, turned around and walked outside the tent, and pulled down the curtain for the two of them.

Sir, sit down as you please.

Hearing Absek's voice, the warrior took off the hood of his cloak, walked straight to him and sat down.

That's the chair here.

Hearing this interesting answer, Absek laughed and said in a joking tone.

This is a place to store sundries. There are tables, chairs, and teapots. It's not bad. You don't expect me to invite you to the military tent and invite all the soldiers to have a long talk.

Thinking about this interesting sentence, the Zhandi guy looked at him with a half-smile.

Aren't you going to explain?

Explain what.

Three thousand lives, the warfield guy stared into his eyes, this is different from what was agreed.

Hehe... so what about Orissa, there are tens of thousands of Orissas? Let's not talk about the cannon fodder of the werewolves who were coaxed to die. Do you, as a foreigner, think that we Are you born to be a slave?

Absek picked up the boiling teapot, and calmly poured a pot of local specialty masu tea for himself and the pangolin sitting across from him.

This kind of tea has a scent of licorice. It smells slightly bitter and tastes sweet. It is considered a cheap indulgence in the local area. difference.

The Field Guy tried it once, but couldn't stand the smell of cough syrup and ginger water.

In front of the pangolin, Absek took a sip first, then looked at him who was silent and continued talking.

Mr. Pangolin, we are different from wastelanders like you. Our roots are here. We love this land very much. In your eyes, the thousand pillars are inserted on our backs, but we know it better than you. Those thousand pillars are us...do you understand?

I don't understand, and I'm not interested. Glancing at the cup of herbal-scented tea on the table, the warfield guy leaned forward a few inches, staring straight into Absek's eyes, I think I know what you think, why you betray Lord Banlott.

Betrayal? Absek sneered, I'm not his subordinate, how can you say I'm a betrayer?

After a pause, he said again.

And I didn't say that you don't know the situation of the civil servant group in the legion. You don't even have a direct army, and you use the rags eliminated by the four major legions. What's the future of cooperating with you?

Although he didn't want to speak for the legion, the warlord still faithfully fulfilled his duty, said in a deep voice.

At least we don't want your land.

Haha, do you believe this yourself?

Absek laughed and continued.

Besides, if you don't want it, it doesn't mean others don't want it. Before the empire was destroyed, Wu Tuo and you sent three out of the thirteen states, and there were two rebellious ones, Huzhou and Baozhou. Borneo How many more countries does the province want to build? Thirteen? This is the end of following your civil servants! You say you don’t want land, and you want more than anyone else!”

The warrior said patiently.

You can't put all the problems of Wu Tuo on our head, and the reason why Lord Benoit chose you is because he hopes that you can change the empire—

Come on, what you want is a neutered dog, I don't understand you yet.

Absek curled his lips and continued.

The Legion of the South is not a good thing. They are the most ferocious wolves, but I don't think it is a bad thing to follow them. After all, there is meat to follow, but you can only eat shit after following your ass.

The warlord said in a deep voice.

Aside from overthrowing the empire, what benefits does he promise you?

Absek said without hesitation.

Guns! Cannons! And ammunition! And factories that produce these things! Only with these things can we stand and negotiate with you.

asked the Battlefield.

What about the price? Since it was bought, the price is not cheap.

Absek continued.

It's just Shizhou. Anyway, it doesn't matter if we don't give it to you. That place has always been in your hands.

The Zhandi guy took a breath and couldn't help saying.

You are cutting meat and feeding it to wolves!

Absek chuckled, Doyle was indifferent.

Wrong! Trading the land of one state for the tranquility of twelve states is a curve to save the nation!

What a curve to save the nation... I am afraid that a certain surname Wang will be an expert after hearing this nonsense.

The Battlefielder shook his head.

He didn't want to criticize this guy's innocence, after all, as the envoy of the legion, he didn't have the position to do so.

However, as an outsider, he would stand up and talk about any major principles without feeling too much pain in his back, let alone the slightest persuasiveness.

People who are extremely hungry can even eat dirt, and people who are dying of illness are not afraid of whether they are chewing elixir or arsenic.

He could only proceed from the facts and said patiently.

...You think too well of the Southern Legion. Those people are different from us. Their ambitions will never be satisfied with just one state. They will take the Lion State first, and wait for you to fight the Empire. Step by step The earth is approaching, asking you for the cow state, the snake state, the dog state, the wolf state, the snake state...

Abu Sek sneered, but didn't take this sentence to heart.

It's not that he hasn't considered this situation, but it's not something to consider now.

What they have to do is to become stronger!

And it is to become stronger at all costs!

After all, if the empire continues to weaken, it will only be a matter of time before these states are taken away one after another. Even if they don't want to give it, it won't help. No one will care about their voices.

Only when the empire becomes truly strong, can they gain the capital to compete with various forces in the wasteland!

The Willant people are not invincible, there has never been anything invincible in this world.

The Warfield guy knew that no amount of explanation to him would be empty talk, so he took out a stack of photos from his pocket and gently placed them on the table.

I know there's no evidence for what you say...then just take a look at these.

Absek glanced at the photo and frowned slightly when he saw the artillery and heavy equipment.

What's this?

The warrior continued.

This is the equipment deployed by the Legion at Xifan Port. I took a photo when I passed by there.

In addition, three regiments... I mean the strength of the thousand-man team has arrived at the port. In addition, there is an airship and a 10,000-man team are on the way.

Obviously they are ready to completely take over Shizhou. However, taking over Shizhou obviously doesn't need so much equipment. Guess who these equipment are used to deal with.

The expression on Absek's face was a little stiff, although the pretentiousness hanging between his brows still read it's none of your business.

...The Heavenly King Army, but it doesn't matter, we will change the flag to draw a clear line with Janusz—

The Battlefielder shook his head.

It's so naive. No matter how you draw the line, whether you admit it or not is just a matter of their words. When you are almost killing each other, it's time for them to start asking more.

After a pause, he said again.

However, if you think that these equipment are used to deal with you, then you are thinking too much. You can't even use this third of the equipment. I dare say that the remaining 90% are used to deal with Alliances and corporations... or rather, to deter them.

As for you, it's just a fire they set on fire. When the weeds on this land are burnt out, it's only a matter of minutes to crush you to death.

When talking about this, the Zhandi guy suddenly smiled mischievously.

You probably don't know... Actually, we have cooperated with Torch before. It's just that Torch got out of hand and made us feel threatened, so we moved our fingers and extinguished their little flames.

That voice hit Absek's heart like a heavy hammer, causing his eyes to be in a trance for a moment.

However, changing a person's perception is difficult, if not impossible.

Like a victim of telegraphic fraud, he was still trying to be brave, unwilling to believe the facts before him.

...This is just your speculation.

The Zhandi guy frowned slightly, and stood up from his chair.

Then you just pray that a group of wolves who are more like wolves than you can keep their promise at the end.

We lost this game, and we shouldn't hand over the chips to a group of speculators. But although we lost, this game is not over yet. If the Willant people win in the end... such an ending is very important to civil officials. It is not unacceptable for the group.

After speaking, he turned and walked towards the door of the tent, but when he reached the door, Absek suddenly stopped him.

Please, please wait!

The Zhandi guy stopped in his tracks and turned around, only to see the general stood up, with beads of sweat on his forehead, and struggle written all over his face.

……what should I do?

He was finally scared.

Or he finally realized that the fire ignited by their ambitions was dragging themselves and even the entire empire into an bottomless abyss.

The fire has been ignited, and our strength alone cannot put it out—

Absek roared angrily.

Then what the hell! Did Benoit send you here just to laugh at me?!

Looking at Absek who was yelling loudly, Zhandi raised his hands to signal him to calm down, and waited until his breathing calmed down before continuing to speak patiently.

Listen to what I have to say first... Of course, the strength of our civil servant group alone is not enough, and the Eastern Legion is too far away from here. But it should be enough to add the alliance.

Absek's mind buzzed, and he was stunned.

……alliance?

He squeezed the word out of his mouth with difficulty, mainly because he didn't expect that the person who said these words was actually an envoy from the legion.

The field guy sighed and made a helpless expression.

We are also very helpless. We have planned everything, but no one expected to encounter a group of lunatics who are addicted to gambling. Now if we want to control the fire, we can only rely on the strength of our opponents.

Absek's expression was a little awkward. He knew that the lunatic this guy was talking about was referring to himself and everyone in the same faction as him.

Perhaps, as he said, they did not listen to the Southern Legion's persuasion to gamble big, and they were far from being cornered like they are now.

Just tell me what to do...

The warrior said patiently.

The ambassador of the alliance happens to be in this city. They should have met Janusz...but I believe they must be very, very dissatisfied with the current situation in Tiandu, or dissatisfied with Janusz himself.

At this time, it would be great if someone could plant a more equal banner... The alliance's requirements are actually not high, as long as it meets the abolition of slavery, it is enough. As for residents' participation in legislation and representative meetings, you can take your time.

Absek looked at him in a daze, not knowing why an envoy from the legion would know such a fine-grained level of the alliance.

If Lord Benoit hadn't sent a telegram in advance, he couldn't help but wonder if this guy might be a spy of the Alliance.

...a different flag? How is that any different from what we're going to do?!

The warlord rolled his eyes in disgust.

Do you only listen to half of what people say? What about the part after another flag is raised?

Or if I have to be more straightforward, you go and pull down that idiot named Janusz, reverse the case for the Japanese and Moon people, at least put out a gesture of correcting mistakes, and then immediately turn around and turn to the alliance... I don't sound good, but anyway, you have changed jobs once, and I don't think you would mind being slaves with three surnames.

Next, you must stop the invasion of the three states in the north, Xiangzhou in the middle, and Snake state in the south... Leaving aside the occupied areas, but the ongoing invasion must be stopped immediately! Then turn your guns to the outside and aim at the landing west The Southern Legion of Sail Harbor!

According to the agreement we reached with the alliance, the alliance will exert its own influence to prevent the warlords of Mammoth State, King Gallon Port, and Huzhou Leopard State from taking the opportunity to attack you.

At least until the Legion reduces its military presence in the east, you don't have to worry about being stabbed by your own people. And if the Southern Legion sends troops directly, the alliance will take countermeasures equivalent to it.

When it's all over, whether you want to continue your civil war, or sit down and talk to other people, it's up to you...

It's still the same sentence on the side of the alliance. Survivors in Borneo province should decide their own future destiny. They don't intend to force you to follow exactly the same path as them...Of course, I don't like to hear their farts. But it’s not a bad thing for you.”

After a pause, he said again.

As for us... To be honest, we are already a little disheartened. Even if the previous cooperation is still valid, we will probably change the way.

The second half of the sentence was said by Benoit, and it was probably from his heart.

While Penny was still blaming her dad, the Warzone guy had to say a few words for the old man who was trying to turn things around.

Compared with those militant Willant lunatics, that guy is actually one of the few consciences, and he would rather cut off his own arm to hold down the Southern Army.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this guy is the last error correction mechanism of the Legion.

At least, he knows how to stop losses.

Absek stared at this guy with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman crazier than himself.

but--

He thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the only way he had left to survive.

He stretched out his trembling index finger and touched the bridge of his nose, then picked up the teacup on the table and downed the cold tea in one gulp.

Seeming to have finally calmed down, he looked at the envoy named pangolin and asked in a voice with mixed joy and sorrow.

Then... what should we change the name to? Should it be called the Borneo Alliance?

The Battlefield guy said without thinking.

It's better for you to talk to someone from the alliance. I can't give you any advice.

Absek reached out and patted his forehead, and nodded hastily.

...Yes, yes, yes, I have to talk to the representative of the alliance, how could I forget.

As he said that, he smiled embarrassedly and rubbed his hands together to relieve his embarrassment.

My memory... I almost forgot, you are the envoy of the legion, and I have to talk to the representative of the alliance about this matter.

Hearing this sentence, the battle field guy's face turned black.

Are you questioning my loyalty to His Majesty the Marshal?

Seeing that the opponent was about to duel with him, Absek hurriedly apologized.

Don't dare! I didn't mean that, don't get me wrong.

Hehe... No matter what you mean, I've said what I have to say anyway, you can decide whether to live or die.

The field guy gave him a warning look, and then walked out of the tent under the good-bye of that attentive look.

Anwo, who was smoking outside the tent, saw the pangolin coming out of the door, and quickly led him to the side door of the barracks, escorting him with green lights all the way.

After sending the pangolin away, he hurried back to the tent where General Absek was staying, and couldn't help asking.

My lord... what do you mean by the Legion?

Absek gave him an inscrutable look.

...The water here is too deep, so don't inquire about what you shouldn't. I'll tell you what to do.

Realizing that he was too impatient, Anwo quickly lowered his head.

yes!

Not in the mood to educate this guy.

Absek moved his eyes away from his confidant, looked at the dark night sky outside the tent, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

oh my god

Looks like it's about to change again.
