Then General Wind Chime left in silence, leaving behind his subordinates with a surprised face.

Zhang Lingzhi, Manstein, Modussang, and Zhu Daofu couldn't believe what had just happened. It was the woman's words, their army was no longer theirs, but the subordinates of the dragon country in front of them.

Mo Desang and Zhu Daofu knew that there was no room for recovery in this matter, so they forcibly suppressed the anger in their hearts and left the scene with a bang. It was a great shame for them, to give up their soldiers to others, and in the end they could not do anything about it. Now they are no different from ordinary soldiers, and if war comes, they may be sent to the front line.

Although he said that he was ready to realize death, he didn't expect it to be so vexatious.

This major change was also called the "Ye Fan Strategic Conference" by later people, and from this moment on, except for General Feng Chime and the Third Corps of the Tree Country to which Zacks belonged, all the fleets of Operation Thunder Island were in the hands of Ba Wen.

After Zhu Daofu and Modusang left the scene, the angry Zhang Lingzhi made a fuss. He roared wildly and scolded Ba Wen and many of the Dragon Kingdom generals present, if it weren't for Manstein and Zax on the side to make an early move and suppress him with a harmonic pulse array, I'm afraid that the entire command room would be destroyed by Zhang Lingzhi's spiritual pulse.

After everything calmed down, Zhang Lingzhi was placed under house arrest on charges of attempted mutiny. Thus began the real military dictatorship of Bavin, and no one disagreed, even though more than half of them were stronger than Bavin, and there was no reason to obey him. But in the space of these two days, Bavin had become the true leader of the army.

This concludes the Fifth Mine Island Strategic Meeting.

Of course, it was also the last time there was a strategy meeting of this magnitude.

At the end of the meeting, Bavin proposed that "the future strategic meetings will be attended only by me, General Wind Chime, Mr. Rhodes, Mr. Morton, His Excellency Hanazawa, His Excellency Gu Monroe, and General Howell, and the rest of you will only have to wait for orders." Again, for all strategic arrangements will only be effective if they are finalized by me......"

The news of Bavin's military dictatorship was spread by word of mouth by all the soldiers. At this critical juncture, this seemingly non-humane, devoid of democracy policy seems more acceptable to the soldiers. Most of the soldiers only complained a few words, and there were no large-scale riots in the army. Ba Wenming confessed that these soldiers, who feel confused and hesitant about the unknown future, prefer to give their lives to the hands of a person who seems to have a strong heart. Just like the same adventurer who entered the Misty Forest, the frightened adventurer can only give the last trust to the guide he doesn't know, because only then can he have a better chance of survival.

When Manstein and Zax escorted Zhang Lingzhi, who had been convicted of mutiny, to the main ship of the Tree Kingdom, they met Mo Desang and Zhu Daofu, who were discussing with Wind Chimes.

Manstein and Zax still saluted the wind chimes, although from this point on, the wind chimes would no longer be their commanders.

"You must have a lot of doubts...... Why did I hand over the command of Shuguo......"

"Yes, this is tantamount to putting the lives of the soldiers of the Tree Country in the hands of the people of the Dragon Country. Manstein said.

"With all due respect, General Wind Chime, I don't think that dragon man can lead us to victory. Although his eyes are full of the pursuit of the distant and the unknown, his true thoughts are deeply hidden. Zacks said.

"Oh, what is the basis for judgment?"

"General Wind Chime, you should remember the eighth force he mentioned......, right? I say yes if...... Assuming that he is the man of the Eighth Force, then it would explain why he has a military dictatorship. The best way to clear one's suspicions is to identify them first, and assuming that he has created such an image for himself from the beginning......"

"Captain Zax, your imagination is really rich. The calm sound of the wind chimes interrupted Zax's speculation, which surprised him.

"Today, the news about the Eighth Force is known only to those who have participated in the strategic discussions, and the minds of people are a wall. If this suspicion continues, once the chain of suspicion is formed, it will be an even more terrifying disaster than [Thunder Fang]. ”

"What do you mean?"

"From this day forward, I can't trust anyone around me, not even ......," said Wind Chime, "as for why I should hand over the command...... I can't answer that question right now. ”

"What?" Zhang Lingzhi, whose veins were sealed, jumped up angrily, and the sudden burst of power was so strong that he broke free from the shackles of Manstein and Zax. Viciously swooping down on the wind chimes like a lion, his eyes shining with cold light, and although his veins were sealed, his momentum was no worse than that of any warrior who stood alone.

"Just by you, you are still the general of the Tree Country, don't think that you are the lover of His Majesty Tsinami, and use the soldiers of the Tree Country as cannon fodder...... If you want to be a princess, you will go back to Xie Du...... What are you going to do on Ray Island?"

"Zhang Lingzhi, be honest!" Zax roared. Because Zhang Lingzhi took advantage of his negligence just now to break free from control, when he reacted, Zhang Lingzhi had already pounced on the wind chime.

Manstein and Zhang Lingzhi have always had a good relationship, but they didn't react for a while after being pushed to the ground.

"Zhu Daofu, Mo Desang, stop him-"

Manstein shouted. Although Zhang Lingzhi was a high-level spiritual magician of the Ten Veins Sect, his strength was less than one-tenth of the usual due to the sealing of the spiritual veins. It was unexpected, but it was much slower.

Zhu Daofu, Modusan and Zax teamed up and quickly captured him.

Feng Chime let out a long sigh, walked up to him who was half-kneeling on the ground, and asked boringly, "Head Zhang, are you dissatisfied with me?"

Zhang Lingzhi glared at her viciously, and his angry appearance was even more arrogant than the appearance of being wild in the command room just now. Zhu Daofu and Mo Desang frowned, they seemed to be able to imagine what had just happened in front of all the senior generals of the coalition forces.

Sure enough—what a mad dog.

"General, do we need to keep his mouth shut?" Zhu Daofu asked.

"No, I don't. ”

Zhang Lingzhi was very disgusted by what the wind chimes said, and the green tendons on his forehead were like dried rivers.

"-How--the famous Wind Chime General, you are a big celebrity beside Your Majesty, why do you care about me Zhang Lingzhi as a corps commander?"

"Zax, you get out of the way. Zhu Daofu and Modusan were able to control him. Wind Chime looked at the side, his eyes did not fluctuate, "Manstein, he was like this in the command room just now?"

Manstein did not speak, but hung his head.

In that case, the answer is obvious.

Wind Chimes crouched down, did not condemn or apologize, but simply stated a fact: "You know, this kind of behavior is called mutiny, and it is punishable by death in times of war. Commander Zhang Lingzhi, now whether it is me or General Bawen, whether it represents the Tree Country or the Holy Alliance, you will pay the price for your actions today, understand?"

"My life and death?" Zhang Lingzhi......, who was like a trapped beast fighting, suddenly gave up resistance, but sat on the ground and looked up to the sky and smiled, "A corps commander and soldier are gone...... What is the difference between life and death......" He raised his head and puffed out his eyes and asked, "What about you, what about you? Manstein, Zhu Daofu, and Modusant, are you willing to let all your men live and die in the hands of Bavin?"

Zhang Lingzhi, who gave up resistance, looked very embarrassed, and the originally radiant Shuguo military uniform was worn out. Only three pairs of oak-colored buttons remained on his chest, and the fabric on his shoulders and chest had been damaged by the psychic pulses generated during the psychic confrontation. With his originally neat hair in a mess and his hands pressed behind his back, he was not only no longer the commander of the Tree Country Corps at this time, but he was not even qualified to become an alliance soldier

There was no difference between him and the prisoner now.

Despite this, the words of the prisoner echoed in the minds of Manstein, Zhu Daofu and Modesant. As corps commanders, it is impossible for them not to worry about their own soldiers. However, thanks to the order of General Wind Chime, they had to take it.

"What do you guys think?" asked the wind chime suddenly.

"General?"

Feng Chime sighed, and said confidently as if according to the rehearsed script: "Mo Desan, Zhu Daofu, the two of you came out early, you should have roughly understood the reason why I did this." ”

"But, general......" Mordsan was still a little puzzled, "if we really hand over the military power, it means that we will lose all the right to speak in this operation-"

"Believe me, this operation will never be that simple. ”

Through those deep blue pupils that can conquer thousands of men, the agate that shimmers with jewel-like rumors seems to be hidden within. Modusan and Zhu Daofu were successfully convinced.

Wind Chime smiled gratefully, satisfied with the trust placed in the two of them.

"Captain Modesant...... There is also head Zhu Daofu...... Please take Head Zhang Lingzhi to the confinement room to take good care of it..... There is no need for him to participate in future operations, even if such a person is strong and goes to the battlefield, it will be a dead end. ”

"Yes. The two replied in unison.

"What do you say...... What about you? I'm a high-level psychic who can open ten veins..... If you want to kill me, unless it's a strong person at the inheritor level......" Zhang Lingzhi, who was laughing wildly, was completely enraged by the words of the wind chimes, his sunken and godless eyes, his unkempt hair, and he did not have the temperament that a corps commander should have.

Dark clouds cover the sun, and thunder comes from the depths of my mind, not just an illusion but a habit of thunder that has become a background.

Feng Chime didn't even look at Zhang Lingzhi, and said coldly.

"Commander Zhang, please respect yourself, everyone here, which one is not a strong man who can open more than ten veins? In addition, more than half of the senior generals of those alliance generals who can enter the command room to participate in the strategic discussion are above you...... As for the inheritors...... You don't have to think about it....... They're going to kill you....... You don't have to use a tenth of your strength at all......"

She lowered her head and kicked the dust off the tips of her shoes.

"Also, six of us. None of the four of you joining forces with the exception of Zax are my opponents, so ...... Don't be complacent..... This world has no end...... Really big ......"

The robe of the wind chimes blown by the sea breeze, looking out at the distant sea level, her figure is as firm as a stone statue.

"What...... What, this can't be, this can't be..... This can't be, this can't be..... This can't be, this can't be..... This can't be, this can't be..... This can't be, this can't be..... This can't be, this can't be ....."

Zhang Lingzhi muttered, his subdued voice was very strange.

Then he stopped talking meaninglessly, as if he were obsessed.

"Wind Chimes——, War is not something you can control...... The soldiers fought with their lives and put their lives in our hands, and the king entrusted us with the fate of the tree country, and everyone hoped that we could rebuild the glory of the tree country in the past. ...... Those...... The soldiers, their lovers, their children, their friends, were all at home waiting for them to return...... You...... What are you?"

yes, what am I?

Wind Chimes looked at the sea and thought wistfully.

"Do you see the white petals of the harbor of Maple Leaf falling into the sky? Do you see the bards playing the harmonica and reciting this great day? Do you see the parents who watched their sons fade away into the sea, kneeling on Hall Beach and praying for their precarious children? They are human beings, too...... Not cannon fodder...... You put the military power of the Tree Country in the hands of Ba Wen, which is tantamount to joking with the lives of 50,000 soldiers of the Tree Country......"

"Modusant, Zhu Daofu, now you can shut him up. Wind Chime said softly.

"Yes. ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Daofu's small action made Zhang Lingzhi fall asleep.

"Shut him up and block all his veins. Whatever he says, don't pay attention...... When the matter was dealt with, tell Manstein why I had allowed Bavin to push for a military dictatorship. ”

"Yes!" Zhu Daofu and Mo Desang carried Zhang Lingzhi's huge body and disappeared into the corridor of the 'Light'.
