Chapter 43: Sain's attitude
At this time, in the city of Presti, the battle hall of the former Ionian Military and Political Command Office. Lieutenant General Sain was rubbing and observing the huge sand table in front of him inch by inch with great interest.
This huge sand table has witnessed the blood and fire, life and death of the city of Presti in two days, and yesterday it was the pillars of this country who stood in front of it, and after today, I don't know how many people will survive. And now the one who is observing it in front of it, caressing it, is the commander of the invaders who has caused such turmoil in this country. If there is a spirit in the sand table, I am afraid that I would rather break the jade here than become one of the trophies of the invaders.
Just as Sain was thinking about how to disassemble the huge sand table in front of him and transport it back to Noxus, put it in the military museum with a golden frame, and then sign his name, as a dazzling achievement in his brilliant achievements to show the people of Noxus, especially to those old immortals and old stubborns in the military department, Noxus has ushered in a new era, don't go through it and miss the old yellow calendars from decades ago. The old guys like Darkwell, Duke Kao, and Jax, they're already dead and running. The current Noxus belongs to the era of young people like Darius and Sain. Thinking of this, Sain closed his eyes a little comfortably.
"Report~" At this moment, the shout of the military intelligence herald broke Sain's beautiful thoughts. Sain nodded slightly unhappily, signaling that the herald at the door could speak.
"Report to your lordship, our army's Nancheng troops have encountered an enemy ambush, and now the whole army has been defeated."
Sain's right hand trembled slightly, and at this time, his hand was stroking a sand table corner tower carefully carved from granite, and he forcibly endured the killing intent in his heart, and Sain asked, "What about Vladimir, the commander of the southern city?" Still alive? ”
"Report to your lordship, according to the report of the remnants of the Nancheng troops, Major General Vladimir disappeared after the enemy attacked, and our army was leaderless and failed to carry out effective countermeasures, which led to a great defeat!"
Sain's eyes instantly turned blood-red, and a cruel and hideous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Good, good!" Vladimir, you'd better pray every day that you don't get caught by me, or I'll crush your bones and skin you as a war drum in my barracks. ”
"Report~" Just when Sain was furious, another herald arrived. The previous herald saw that a colleague had taken his place, so he hurriedly wiped a cold sweat, vacated his place, and retreated, and the moment he walked out of the door, a gust of wind blew, and he realized that the cold sweat had already soaked his back.
"Say!" Sain was already a little impatient.
"Report to the general, the legion commander Nas sent someone to report, a team of League of Legends Federation Council envoys from the outskirts of Xicheng is now heading towards the city, and the warring sides in Xicheng have now ceased fighting!!"
"There is an armistice?? This bastard, he didn't send troops to slaughter that group of envoys, and put them in the city?? And an advocacy truce? Who gave him the right to make a truce? This bastard, does he want to die! Sain's eyes reddened again, and he roared loudly.
"Report to the General, the commander of the Nas Army said, stop, truce, yes, there is a last resort." As soon as the herald saw Sain's anger, he stumbled a little to speak.
"Reason? It's a last resort, hey, hey, hey, tell me what kind of last resort it is. Sain asked with an angry grin.
"Goo~" The herald's throat came with a nervous swallowing sound, and he said in a trembling voice, "It is said that our Noxus had, once, great, great general Jax appeared on the outskirts of Xicheng, so the commander of the Nas Legion was, no, a last resort...... Yes!! ”
After a scream, the herald fell to the ground with convulsions, blood pouring from his mouth, and a triangular granite was pierced in his heart, and if you looked closely, the shape happened to be the corner tower of the sand table that Sain had been caressing before.
Once Sain is angry, he will kill people when his eyes are red, this is something that the whole army of Noxus knows, so in Sain's army, there are three types of people whose positions are the most dangerous in their daily lives, one is the strategic staff officer, the other is the secretary of the army, and the other is these scouts and heralds. Due to his personality, the soldiers brought out by the brutal Sain were also much more ferocious than the other Noxian troops, because they knew that if they did not kill the enemy, they would die if they returned to the barracks after defeat. This is also the reason why Sain's Chinese troops suddenly encountered an ambush by Zelos, Sabo and others in the western city, but they had to support it longer than Vladimir's troops in the southern city. If Presti City had sent Sain's 100,000 Chinese troops when the city was broken, it is estimated that the war would have been over by this time.
"Jax, Jacques, S!! Jia, Ke, Si!! Sain's eyes were blood-red, the corners of his mouth quivered, and he roared and repeated Jax's name over and over again. At this time, as long as he was a soldier, he could see that Sain was on the verge of going berserk. Fortunately, the staff officers and clerks of the army did not follow Sain into the sand table hall, they all waited outside the door, and after seeing the death of the herald who entered the door behind, Sain yelled and repeated the forbidden name inside, and no one dared to go in to persuade anything.
Until a senior officer in charge of the Noxus Domestic Intelligence Service, a general directly under the management of Marshal Svein, hurried from the outside, holding the special gold tin foil cylinder secret of the Thunderbird Express and walked into the room, this kind of gold tin foil cylinder sealed Thunderbird Express intelligence belongs to the Noxus S-level top secret document, which can arrive at the exclusive intelligence station of Noxus in any corner of the Valoran continent within two days, due to the limited number of warcraft Thunderbirds that can be tamed, if it is not related to the survival of the Noxus Federation, This form of CBC will not be enabled.
Even Sain, who was furious, restrained his anger at the first moment when he saw the intelligence officer who was holding the Thunderbird secret message, and his reddened eyes gradually returned to their normal color. After receiving the gold tin foil cylinder handed by the intelligence officer, Sain checked the fire paint seal on the seam of the gold tin foil cylinder, and after confirming that there was no problem, he scraped off the fire paint with his fingers, unscrewed the metal button cover on the gold tin foil cylinder, and pulled out a roll of paper from it. The paper was densely covered with small letters, and Sain looked at it carefully.
The intelligence officer on the side was also a little nervous, although he was an intelligence officer directly under the orders of Svein under the orders of the military department, but Lieutenant General Sain's bloodthirsty, cruel and murderous reputation and personality still made him involuntarily a little worried. I'm afraid his identity can't save his life, and whether he can save his life depends on Sain's personal attitude. Luckily, Sain didn't destroy it after reading the secret letter, but sealed it again in a gold tin foil tube and put it in his arms. Afterwards, Sain let several staff officers, clerks, and personal guards who were still on standby outside the house to listen to the order. The first was to ask them to immediately send someone to summon the two Noxian pursuers in Prestisi City and North City, and return to the camp regardless of whether or not they had exterminated the Ionian army. The second is to require the honor guard of the army to go out of the barracks and prepare to open the honor guard with the specifications of the general of the military department and prepare to welcome the distinguished guests. The third is to ask the guards to prepare him with blood armor and bloodthirsty battle axes, and he should be neatly dressed to welcome visitors.
Sain's several decisions confuse everyone, if it was just to put up a guard of honor to greet the guests, it would definitely be to welcome the envoy of the Federation of Valoran League of Legends, but with the specifications of the Noxian military department to welcome the general, is it to welcome "that person??" "If you're going to greet him, why don't you wear the Noxus rank gown? Instead, he asked the guards to put on blood armor and prepare bloodthirsty battle axes, since the beginning of the Ionian War, he had never heard Lord Sain wear these two epic pieces of equipment, let alone seen him personally go into battle to kill the enemy, and then wear this set of weapons and equipment to greet the guests? It's supposed to be going to cut people, right? The strangest thing is the first military order, which can return to the camp without exterminating the Ionian army, which is completely different from the style of Sain's usual slaughter to the end. A group of generals withdrew from the battle hall with their own thoughts, looked at each other, but did not dare to say more, and finally dispersed separately and got busy.
