Chapter 1419: The General on the Border
Sauron paced around the room.
One, two, three, four...... Slowly walk to the end of the room, turn around, walk back again, walk to the end of another room, and turn around again.
And just like that, and so on.
A faint whisper came out of his mouth: "Eleven, eleven......"
Halfway through the pace, as if he had heard something, he tilted his head to look at the doorway.
"Click......
The next moment, some hurried footsteps sounded, and a wizard in cyan robes walked up, also Sauron's subordinate. His name is Abu Yul, and his strength is not weak, but his ability to save his life is even stronger. More than three years ago, he had followed Sauron in the National War and the battle against the Truth Society, and even faced the gray mist.
Of course, he is not an opponent of Gray Mist, but surviving the battle with Gray Mist, in addition to the lucky component, the strength should not be underestimated. In that battle, in order to resist the attack of the gray mist, he once frantically stacked energy shields on his body to reach dozens of layers, and was jokingly called "Hundred Shields Wizard" and "Iron Shell Wizard", which was a mockery of him for completely giving up the attack in order to save his life.
He didn't get angry at this somewhat insulting title, but accepted it calmly, and in the past three years, he has studied various defensive spells in depth, making himself worthy of his name.
In his opinion, it is not a shame for a wizard to do anything to save his life in battle, after all, only by surviving can he do the rest, and only by staying alive can he have combat effectiveness.
In line with the concept of defense first, Abu Yul, who is so strong that his defense is perverted, seems to be a little unable to withstand the attack from a certain direction at this time, and walks in the door with a somewhat ugly face, holding a piece of gilded paper in his hand.
Sauron glanced at it, but did not look at the contents, as if he knew what Abu Yul had taken, and said in a loud voice, "The twelfth order?"
"Yes, General. Abu Yul nodded, "Same as before, but ......"
"Tougher wording?"
"Hmm. β
"Okay, got it. Sauron said lightly, waving his hand as he spoke, and pointed to a round table in the corner, "Leave it there, you don't need to read itβsince the content is the same, it is a waste of time to read it." β
"Yes. Hule answered, walked over to the round table that Sauron was pointing to, and put the paper with Char's command written on it, and saw that there were already a dozen similar ones on it.
When he had put it away, Hule turned back and looked at Sauron, but stopped talking.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hold it back. β
"Yes, General. Hule sighed and said, "I want to ask, have we just dragged it on like this? It's been three days, and Char's order has been a full twelve, which has never been done before." From this aspect, it can be seen how much Char attaches importance to this matter. If it drags on like this, it's not good for us, for the reef fort, and for the entire military. β
"Of course I know that, Wizard Hule. Sauron responded, pacing again, and said as he paced, "Don't say that Char has twelve orders in a row, even if two orders come in a row, it already shows Char's attitude."
You should also know the cause of this - after the new majesty succeeded to the throne, he has been purging disobedient forces, so the people of the ruling court went to the city of Sarin Atlantan this time to capture a fugitive who had worked for the fourth prince.
Unexpectedly, the fugitive was not recaptured, and a member of the adjudication court was still held there for hard labor. What's even worse is that a deputy judge, who seems to be from the Antonio family, was directly killed on the spot because he injured the official personnel of Sharin. And the chief judge also disappeared inexplicably in Atlanta City, and his life and death are still unknown.
These circumstances can be regarded as a great contempt for the adjudication court, and the new majesty standing behind the adjudication court is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the new majesty. The new Majesty will naturally be angry, so he ordered us to send troops to let Shalin meet the 'color' and let Shalin give an explanation. β
Pacing to the end of the room, Sauron stopped, did not turn around, and the wizard Hule, who had his back to the cyan robe, continued: "Actually, the new majesty is continuing to test Sharin. The previous rulings of the court to arrest the fugitive were a test of Shalin, but the test failed, and His Majesty did not give up and began a second trial. He wanted to know how tough Shalin's attitude was, and whether he was willing to be ruled by the Alliance. β
After pursing his lips, Sauron turned around and waved his hand to let all the men in the command room leave, leaving only the wizard Hule, squinting his eyes and saying: "To be honest, isn't this move of the new majesty testing us, testing the military, and testing the reef fort? More than three years ago, the victory in the national war with Sika and the extermination of the Truth Society was an excellent opportunity to make the alliance stronger. Who knows, first His Majesty Peter died, and then the Great Prince succeeded to the throne and was assassinated, and the whole Char became a mess.
In the more than two years of power struggle between various parties, the alliance continued to weaken, and it was not until the new majesty succeeded to the throne not long ago that it was a sigh of relief. In the process, I have been trying to keep the military from participating in political factionalism, and the province has plunged the alliance into a crisis of civil war or even division.
I don't think it's a bad thing, but there are good and bad things - keeping the alliance united and not affecting the military too much is the upside and the downside is ...... The new Majesty, who succeeded to the throne, no longer believed in the military.
This time, let's send troops to sarin, on the one hand, to test the attitude of sarin, and on the other hand, to test our attitude. That's why 12 orders were issued in three days. β
"The general...... Why don't we carry out the order and keep delaying it?" Γle wondered, and then thought of a possibility, his eyes shrunk, and he asked in a tentative whisper, "Our military has always been loyal to the Alliance, right?"
Sauron looked at Hule, looked directly at Hule's face, and the air pressure in the room lowered for a moment, and then chuckled, "Of course. On this note, Wizard Hule, you can rest assured that the military will always be loyal to the Alliance. β
"It's just ......," Sauron said, changing his tone, "allegiance to the Alliance is not exactly the same as allegiance to Char, let alone allegiance to the new Majesty now." β
Hule breathed for a moment, looked at Sauron, and his hand subconsciously curled up, which was his subconscious action of trying to release the energy shield.
I have to say that Sauron's words made him feel a little dangerous, and if he was not careful, he might be killed. Even if he considered himself a henchman of Sauron, it was the same. After all, the information in Sauron's words makes people shudder when they think about it.
Sauron glanced at Yule, shook his head lightly, and said a little angrily: "Don't think too much, Wizard Yule, I don't want to rebel! It's just that the chaos of the past three years has made me have some doubts and thoughts. β
