Chapter 61: Beryl is coming!
"The evidence we have is roughly pointing to Cardo's ......" When young people make clear points, middle-aged people never dare to make up their minds. You know, Cardo's daughter-in-law was his first love back then!
The young man chuckled. "Zhang Kun, you have been working in Selosi Town for more than 10 years."
"Yes, counting this month, 12 years and 7 months." The middle-aged man named Zhang Kun was confused by his boss's sudden change of topic, so he could only answer truthfully.
"How long have you been the lieutenant of the Duchy's garrison in the town of Selosi?"
"Exactly 3 years!"
The young man looked up and sighed. "It's been 3 years? It's been 3 years since I came back......"
"Yes, sir. The day you took over as the Principality's supreme governor in the town of Selosi was the time for you to return. ”
"I've been here for 3 years, and I've stopped you from ascending for 3 years." The young man looked at Zhang Kun, who didn't dare to look up, and said calmly.
Xia Guan didn't dare to think like this, and he never thought like this. It's a blessing for you to come back to Selosi. ”
Young man laughs.
"Zhang Kun, everyone is not a fool, and there are some things that don't need to be said explicitly. One more day I'm in the town of Selosi, and you're suppressed for one day. It's normal for you to see me as a thorn in your side. ”
When Zhang Kun heard this, his body sank down again to show his respect. "The lower officials don't dare. Adults can become the supreme commander because they are capable and respected......"
At this moment, the young man stood up from his chair and muttered softly. "Respected ......"
Zhang Kun didn't dare to talk.
"Respected ......"
The young man repeated again, and by this time he had already walked in front of Zhang Kun.
"Zhang Kun! Keep your head up! ”
Zhang Kun raised his head as he said.
"Bang!"
The young man obviously didn't make any moves, but Zhang Kun's body flew up without warning, slammed into the door panel hard, and then bounced back.
"Poof!"
Zhang Kun spurted a mouthful of blood. Looking back at the young man, his body has not moved since he stood in front of Zhang Kun, and his dark eyes make it impossible to see his thoughts.
"Do you know why?"
"Please make it clear." Zhang Kun struggled to get up from the ground, but his right face was swollen like fermented flour.
"Hey." The young man sighed. "You are so good, you will pretend to be pitiful, and it is easy to make people sympathize."
Zhang Kun was silent.
The young man returned to his seat and sat down. "That kick just now is because you took me for a fool. But I don't like to be treated as stupid, so I'm a little punished. ”
"Yes, the lower officials remember."
"Go down." The young man waved.
"Yes." Zhang Kun cautiously got up and went out, and then closed the door again.
At some point, the young man had a silver-white revolver in his hand, which he was gently wiping with a soft white cloth.
The body of the revolver is only 13 centimeters, which is not atmospheric, but it is definitely not small. The barrel of the gun, full of streamlined beauty, is engraved with two lines of small letters.
"My thoughts, my loves, are poured into this.
Your promises, your vows, are gone like bullets. ”
The young man's sharp gaze suddenly revealed a faint sadness. On the well-defined handsome face, the domineering and calmness when facing his subordinates have faded. At this moment, he is no longer the commander in charge of the army, just a frustrated young man.
Soon, he put away the confusion, regained his former majesty, and stroked the body of the gun. "Prepare the horses."
"Where are you going?" The guard outside the door asked cautiously.
There was silence in the room. The guard's heartbeat suddenly doubled, and he offended the chief somewhere.
Finally, 10 seconds later, the sound of the room sounded again, relaxing the guard's heart.
"Selosi Town!"
…………
The first thing Cardo did when he left the woods was to look for Dreish!
Sadly, since he was separated from the soldiers, he has not been seen again. Naturally, Cardo had no way of knowing his whereabouts.
This makes Cardo very passive. It can be said that this Dérew is now quite a key figure.
When a colleague in the army is innocently killed, others will inevitably feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox. Cardo could imagine that in order to appease the anger of the people, Beryl would definitely come to seek out himself for an explanation.
With the strength of Cardo alone, let alone against the entire army, I am afraid that even one Belier will not be able to settle it. If you want to protect yourself, Cardo has only two options:
First, find evidence to prove your innocence.
Second, to stir up the anger of the local population, and then use it to put pressure on Beryl.
The first option clearly does not work. Cardo had no evidence in his favor, so how could he prove his innocence? With the "Grim Reaper"? If it weren't for seeing the three soldiers and Gehr disappear suddenly, I'm afraid that even Cardo himself would not believe in the existence of the Grim Reaper.
As for the second option, there is still work.
For a long time, the defenders had bullied their neighbors from Belier, and the local population did not have a good opinion of them. As long as Cardo insists that he has been wronged, with the connections and good reputation he has accumulated over the years, the residents will certainly not stand idly by.
Even though Beryl needs to take care of the emotions of his subordinates, he has to weigh it when dealing with Cardo.
I'm afraid that Dre will suddenly jump out and accuse Cardo of murder.
It is understandable to say that the military fabricated the fact that he killed people out of thin air in order to be unfavorable to Cardo. But Dre is a native of the country, so he can't be guilty of framing Cardo, right? By that time, will the residents still believe in Cardo and help Cardo?
Don't look at Cardo's usual gentle and honest, that's all his disguise!
In fact, Cardo is also a decisive person. Especially before living in seclusion in the town of Celesi, Cardo can be said to be a ruthless lord who has suffered a lot of lives. As long as it's to survive, Cardo doesn't mind having his hands bloodied again.
For example, now, in order to prevent Dre from saying anything unfavorable to him, Cardo plans to kill Dre in the first place! Otherwise, why is he in a hurry to find Dreish? How dare this guy betray the army for a little benefit?
If it weren't for the fact that God was not beautiful, Cardo would not have been able to find Drew. I'm afraid that Dre has already become a dead corpse by this time!
The speed of Bailier's move was faster than Cardo expected, and it didn't take long for a team of dozens of soldiers and horses to arrive.
Since Bailier did not deliberately hide his intentions, and a group of people came menacingly, many residents soon surrounded the vicinity of Cardo's residence.
At this point, Cardo calmed down a lot. The reason is very simple, just two words: strength!
Whether it's the animal world, or the human society. Everything is respected by the strong, and we must speak with strength.
There is strength, you eat meat. If you don't have the strength, then I'm sorry, you can only eat!
Because of the difference in strength, even if Zhang Kun was dissatisfied with his young boss, he didn't dare to go against his boss - at least not in person.
Because of the gap in strength, Cardo dared to chase Fan Kang into the woods to find out the truth.
-- All self-confidence in the world stems from strength.
And Cardo is exactly that kind of person. He was extremely confident in his own prowess - he had never felt fear except when he met the Grim Reaper.
What's more, in Cardo's opinion, Belier may not be fighting with him to the death.
What is the most important thing to be the boss?
Face!
Before Bailier makes a move, he has to think about the situation of failure. If he fails, he will lose his dignity in front of his subordinates, and the prestige he has built up will collapse with a bang.
Of course, this alone does not justify Belier's stoppage. In contrast, there is a more important reason for Cardo's reliance.
Cardo believes that Berrier will have to think carefully. Once Belier and him fight to lose, then Zhang Kun, who has been eyeing him down, will show his fangs at any time.
We all know that the more you press the spring, the more the spring will resist.
In the same way, when Belier has enough strength, he can still crush Zhang Kun to death. But when the balance of strength is broken, Zhang Kun will never let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
But then again, Cardo wouldn't be naïve enough to think that Beryl would be tied to his neck by others.
You must know that Beryl's biggest advantage is not his force, but his identity. Ability to command and mobilize an army of hundreds of people! No matter how high a person's strength is, he can't beat thousands of troops, and no matter how big a person's slap is, he can't shoot grasshoppers all over the mountain!
If Beryl is really determined to get Cardo, then Cardo's only option is to leave his hometown again.
It can be said that Cardo and Belier each have their own scruples and limitations, and they will not do it easily.
Although Cardo doesn't deal with Bailier in his heart, he still has to do enough work on the surface, after all, he is also an official, isn't he?
This point Cardo is still relatively open. Isn't it just a few soft words, can you still have less meat? Besides, in order to hide his identity over the years, what humiliation and difficulties have Cardo not encountered?
When a handsome young man rode up in the distance, Cardo immediately shouted in fear: "I don't know how many commanders have come, and I hope to forgive my sins!" ”
