Chapter 444: Dispel doubts
There are two sides to everything.
Vega did come up with a way to stop Eskar from questioning why he didn't open the gates.
As long as Eskar is convinced of his loyalty, he can easily integrate into the army.
So Vega glanced at Major General Lebier, and then said to Escal: "Lord Commander-in-Chief, there is indeed a reason why you didn't open the city gate, but this reason can only be known to you alone, and I ask you to order the unrelated people to retreat temporarily." β
"Brigadier General Vega, what do you mean by that?"
Major General Lebier's face changed when he heard this, he was actually invited out by a brigadier general for the reason of irrelevance, etc., when did he receive such anger, so Vega directly made his face blush.
"I mean it literally. β
Vega said unceremoniously: "The matter I want to report is a military secret, and your position does not have the right to know it for the time being, so I need to ask you to leave here temporarily." β
"Major General Lebier, please go down first. β
Seeing that Vega was serious, Eskar waved his hand and rebuked Lebier.
This act made Lebil completely resentful of Vega, and regarded Vega as a thorn in his side, and he eventually left Eskar's office after snorting.
"Brigadier General Vega, now you can speak. β
Eskar looked at Vega, and was already a little shaken in his heart when Lebier messed with this, after all, the city gate was still not opened when the superior officers arrived, and this matter was indeed a little unreasonable.
"The subordinate has asked you for a recommendation for the promotion of the lieutenant general. β
Vega saluted Eskar, then said with a childlike look.
Eskar didn't understand more and more that this question had something to do with not opening the city gate, so he said: "Didn't I say it, in the case of you making two mistakes, it will be difficult for me to recommend you to be a lieutenant general, but please rest assured, as long as you perform well in the future, I promise you a recommendation qualification for promotion to lieutenant general." β
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief. β
After Vega finished speaking, he closed his mouth again, and did not mean to speak at all.
Seeing this, Eskar frowned: "You haven't answered why I didn't open the city gate?"
"Your Excellency, Commander. β
Vega said with a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water: "The city gate is in disrepair and rusty, and the lower officials really can't open the city gate." β
"Huh?"
Eskar almost thought he had misheard, what was the situation with the city gates in disrepair?
If you want to make an excuse and find a clever excuse, even a three-year-old child will not believe such nonsense.
Eskar only thought that Vega was joking, so he continued: "Please don't joke yet. β
Xia Guan was not joking. β
Vega blinked his eyes and said unreasonably: "The city gate is indeed in disrepair and cannot be opened, and the commander cannot enter the city in a short time, and the officials really don't know when it will be repaired." β
"You're really not kidding. β
"It's true. β
Eskar retracted his smile and stared at Vega for a few more moments, then thought.
Only a few seconds later, Eskar's eyes suddenly widened, "You, you, you,
Understood, completely understood.
Eskar finally understood what Vega was saying.
It turns out that this sentence should be combined with the previous sentence 'Xiaguan asked you for a recommendation for the promotion of lieutenant generals', and this sentence has already made it clear that Vega is hinting at him, if you don't give me the qualifications for the recommendation of lieutenant generals, I won't open the city gates.
"Xia Guan is just stating the facts. β
"In addition to this problem, there are such things as the unquelled rebellion, the unfinished pacification of the civilians, and the opposition of all soldiers and generals...... and so on, so it is impossible to open the city gate to welcome you into the city. β
"You!"
Eskar was amused, and he finally realized that the guy in front of him was Vega.
I'm afraid that this little ghost knows his importance, so he has the courage to ask for payment from him, but he really can't do anything with Vega, and he can't take the position of commander and turn his face directly with Vega.
Vega is recognized as a star of tomorrow.
Of course, there is no problem with Vega now, he can also take the position of commander and forcibly order Vega, but if he really does this, it is tantamount to directly falling out with Vega, the person who is favored by the FΓΌhrer.
And as a person who is about to be promoted to general, he vaguely heard that Vega is the master behind the OECD, which makes him even more afraid to come hard, and at the same time understands that this is the reason why Vega knows that he will not open the city gate when he arrives near the great city of Donbu.
This is to hold the city of Donbu and bargain with him.
When the doubts were gone and he understood the little abacus in Vega's heart, Eskar was relieved: "Okay, okay, I promise you, as long as you let us enter the city, I will give you the qualification to recommend this lieutenant general when I go back." β
Vega looked at Eskar with suspicion.
This also made Eskar cry and laugh a little: "I swear by the glory of the empire, and your benefits are absolutely indispensable." β
"I'm relieved to have the words of the commander-in-chief. β
Vega smiled innocently like a child and said, "But please give me seven days to deal with the foolish loyalties of the dynasty that are not used by me, and then officially welcome you into the city." β
"Is there a lot of resistance?"
Hearing this, Eskar said with concern: "If your officer needs help, please say that although he has been put on the side by the West Bank Army, there is basically no loss in the high-level force, and I can give you some here." β
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for your concern. β
Vega then said with a straight face: "I don't need to do these little things at all, I just need to ask my subordinates to go back and pass a message, we just need to wait in this camp for good news, waiting for them to open the city gates." β
"Hahaha, you're really here to bargain with me. β
After Eskar completely relieved his heart, he re-regarded Vega as his confidant: "Since you don't have to do those trivial things yourself, I think you will stay in the army these days." You have been away from the empire for a year, except for the high-level people of the empire who know you, I am afraid that most people have lost their impression of you, and I will take this opportunity to introduce some generals in the army to you. β
"Thank you, Commander, for your cultivation. β
Vega realized that Eskar was hinting that now that he had returned, it was time to start re-managing his connections, and the other party was also deliberately cultivating him, really treating him as a confidant, and he was one of the few generals who treated him well.
But the Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other.
Even if Eskar treats him well, he will not be able to return to the arms of the Empire again, and this time he must use this opportunity to obtain enough information.
Because Eskar alone couldn't protect him.
Once the Empire is in crisis again, and he happens to be involved, Vega can fully imagine that the Empire will abandon him again, and he no longer wants to be betrayed.
