Playing with a master like Catherine really makes people feel very tired, maybe it's not how clever Catherine is, it's just because she is high, which makes people depressed and can't let go. Higg thought to himself, but what did it mean to put Shante by his side? Would Shante be snooping on himself for Catherine's sake? Who exactly is the marshal of the Fifth Army? No answers!

But at least Catherine invited the three of them to dinner to resolve the trouble in the restaurant at noon, and the Prime Minister's Mansion didn't dare to make any moves against Higg easily, they were completely unsure of the reason why Catherine invited Higg and others to dinner, or if there would be any special appointments or tasks, no matter how big the Prime Minister's Mansion was, at this time, I was afraid that I would make trouble for myself!

I heard from Shante that it was not only the marshal who attended the Qinwang Army Conference, but also the generals in various important positions, as well as the bigwigs in the court, Catherine didn't know if she participated or not, and the person who presided over the meeting was Sklell, the head of Catherine's palace.

On the day of the conference, Higg arrived at the venue on time. There is no need for him to go too early, he doesn't know the people from other legions, and he doesn't know the big guys in the court, he is alone, there is no need to let others see the joke early.

When Higg entered the venue, he found himself at the bottom of the line. The conference table is rectangular, the big guy in the army sits on the right, and the big guy in the middle of the court sits on the left.

Higg was furious, looked at the palace manager Squellair, who was in the chairman's position in front of the conference table, and asked loudly, "Lord Steward, are you sure that my position is at the end?" ”

Everyone was surprised that Higg had questioned Sklell since then, and Sklell was also puzzled, and said: "The arrangement of the position is handled by the Prime Minister, I wonder if there is some misunderstanding!" ”

"There is no misunderstanding!" A 60-year-old official sitting in the first seat in the front row on the left said, "The positions I have arranged are strictly based on official positions and ranks, and General Higg is indeed that position!" ”

Higg looked around, but didn't notice that anyone else came out to speak, and everyone didn't care about their own posture, so he smiled and said, "Presumably this must be the Prime Minister of the Alasia Empire, Lord Balachi?" Although my rank and rank are low, I represent the Fifth Legion. I would like to ask the Prime Minister, where should the first representative of the Fifth Army be ranked? Even if my Fifth Legion had sent a pawn or groom to the meeting, I am afraid it would not have been here, right? ”

"It's me who didn't think it through!" Balaki laughed and said, "Please don't misunderstand General Higg!" But now that the seats are full, please ask General Higg to grieve first, and I will be transferred back to the meeting tomorrow! ”

"Ill-conceived?" Higg laughed and said, "Haha, okay, since in the Alasia Empire, even the prime minister doesn't have the Fifth Legion in his heart, so it's okay if the Fifth Legion doesn't participate in this meeting!" With that, Higg shook his hand away.

"Presumptuous!" Balaki said, "Someone, stop him!" ”

Several guards appeared in front of Higg and blocked Higg's way! Where did Higg suffer from this kind of anger, and if he didn't agree with him, he would take himself? An ice ring came out of his right hand, and several guards were immediately frozen in place, unable to move, and no one could see how Higg cast his magic skills.

Higg turned around and asked, "What does this mean, Lord Steward?" You are the presiding officer of the meeting, so why should someone else order the guards to stop me? ”

Sklee came to Higg's side with a grin and said, "General Higg, I really don't know about this matter, if someone deliberately embarrasses the general, I will definitely make him look good!" After Szalla finished speaking, his face changed, and his eyes were fixed on Baraki.

"General Higg, it's really a misunderstanding!" Seeing Sklezley's face full of anger, Baraki hurriedly smiled and said, "You see that the seats are full now, and it is not appropriate to change places, General Higg, what do you want to do?" ”

"Easy to do!" Higg smiled, "Since the Prime Minister asked me, it's easy!" Since the Prime Minister admitted that it was a mistake, I think the responsibility lies with the person who made the mistake, so please ask the Prime Minister to change positions with me! ”

Everyone was taken aback by Higg's arrogance, and Balaki was even more furious, exclaiming, "You are in that position, love to sit or not!" ”

"Lord Steward!" Higg smiled, "I'm still the same sentence, since Alasia no longer has a place for the Fifth Legion, what else do I have to hold a bird club?" ”

"Too much deception!" Balaki said, silently reciting the incantation, and a bolt of lightning shot at Higg, and everyone had no time to react, and their mouths were wide open to watch the sudden turn of events.

Sigg didn't raise his head, a bolt of lightning in his left hand met him, and a thunderbolt of ice in his right hand avoided Baraki's lightning and struck back at Balaki! The shot was so fast that no one knew how Higg's two magic attacks were launched at the same time, and he didn't even pronounce the spell.

With a bang, two bolts of lightning collided together in the air, and there was another click, and I saw Balaki trembling all over, his hair and eyebrows were covered with ice slag, and his mouth was full of steam, and the whole person seemed to have just been fished out of the ice cellar, and even his hair was frozen to stand on end.

Sklell hurriedly landed a beam of light on Balaki, untied Balaki's freeze, and then said to Higg with a smile: "General Higg, this is good, add a place next to me, you sit next to me, how about it?" ”

Higg was also stunned, and then smiled: "Mr. Lao is bothered!" ”

A seat turmoil ended hastily, but what surprised Higg was that the manager was deeply hidden, and he untied his ice seal lightly, it seems that he really can't underestimate the heroes of the world, in this conference hall, I don't know how many masters are still hidden?

Higg was very special in this meeting, first, he was not the marshal of the Fifth Army Corps, but he represented the Fifth Army as the first representative, and even from his position he was only a staff officer of the Chinese Army; Second, the Fifth Legion was alone, and had no contact with other legions or the imperial court; Thirdly, the strength of the Fifth Army Corps is now only 200,000 men, which is only a little more than the troops led by the generals below the marshal, and cannot be compared with the nearly one million men of the First and Second Army Corps!

The main content of the meeting was how to deploy defense along the river, how to ensure logistics, how to cooperate with each other to defend against the attack of Arad, and so on, and so on, which had little to do with Higg, and Higg did not bother to express his own opinions.

"General Higg!" Seeing that Higg was just smiling and not speaking, Marshal of the First Army Corps Krusov asked, "The Fifth Army is alone, and the situation is different from that of the First and Second Army Corps. The so-called bystanders are clear, General Higg must have a different opinion, please tell General Higg his own opinion! ”

"I'm a junior!" Higg smiled, "How dare you get an axe in front of all the marshals and generals?" Don't embarrass me, Lord Marshal! ”

"Boy!" The Marshal of the Second Legion, Guayada, said, "We've all heard about you in the Fifth Legion, and the future is terrifying, so you can say it!" What we say is a rehash of the same old tune, the taste is the same as chewing wax, it's not interesting, you are in a different situation, you definitely have a different opinion! ”

Skewer Szalla smiled and nodded at Higg!

"Then I'll briefly state my opinion!" Higg smiled and said, "I don't know if there was such a meeting before, but today since I am here on behalf of the Fifth Legion, I want to share the opinion of the Fifth Legion!" But first we need to know the purpose of Your Majesty's convening of this meeting, my lords, Your Majesty has been in the city of Andro for almost nine years, why did you summon us to this meeting? It's been almost nine years since we only occupied less than one-third of the territory of the Alasia Empire, and I don't know what the generals think, but I boldly think for Your Majesty, whether Your Majesty will continue to be partial for ten years, twenty years, or longer? Or simply divide the river with Arad and completely split Alasia in two? ”

"Presumptuous!" Balaki said angrily, "You dare to slander Your Majesty......"

Szklylah gave Baraki a fierce look, then said to Higg, "Keep talking!" ”

"No, the wise majesty is absolutely unwilling to maintain the status quo and continue to be partial to peace or rule by rowing the river!" Higg continued, "But, all of you who were here just now, have any of you discussed a way to break the deadlock? You're still talking about the defense line of the Findel River, and how to defend against Arad? Has anyone talked about breaking through the line of defense along the river and fighting in Arad's sphere of influence? Have any of you discussed the reconquest of the city of Crodine? No, as Marshal Guayada said, it's all the same old tune. But you are content with the status quo, but Your Majesty does not want us to repeat the same old tune. The territory in which the Arad has the advantage is much larger than ours, the population is much larger, and we do not have any advantage in the long stalemate confrontation! So Your Majesty is worried, worried that we are so enthusiastic every day that we are discussing how to hold this little bit of territory, but we forget that there is more territory in the hands of others, and more people are living in dire straits. The mountains and rivers are broken, the people are displaced, Your Majesty is heartbroken and worried, but no one can solve the problem of recovery for Your Majesty, and there is not even a discussion. ”

With that, Higg calmed down and sat down.

No one spoke, and the venue was so quiet that you could hear a pin dropping. These battle-hardened generals, these bigwigs in the court, have indeed been accustomed to this way in the past nine years. The four words are indeed shocking enough to make those who are keen to defend the defense line along the river feel extremely ashamed!

"Then it is terrible!" Krusov smiled, "Every sentence is straight to the heart, which makes people ashamed!" ”

"Marshal doesn't have to be like this!" "Different situations, different ideas!" In the past few years, to be able to hold the defense line of the Findel River, you have worked hard! ”

"General Higg!" Guayada asked, "Since you mentioned the issue of liberation, can you tell us what you think?" ”

"Your Excellency Marshal thinks too highly of me!" Higg said, "The road to recovery is difficult, and in terms of the current balance of power, Arad still has a clear advantage, and if the status quo cannot be changed, Arad's advantage will be even more obvious!" ”

"How easy is it to change the status quo?" Krusov sighed, "The defense line along the river involves too many of our troops and materials, how can we have the ability to make adjustments and changes to free up troops for counterattacks?" ”
