Chapter 49: How Should Singled Die?
Prutt, Emperor Feng and Panda were a little surprised by Singer's idea at first, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that it made sense.
In his situation, it is absolutely impossible to have the best of both worlds, and there must be a trade-off. He could not fail the wife and children of Duke Harret's side, nor the mother and son of Lady Tia, and he could only die.
Whether it is General Singled or Singh, in short, he must die before he can have the possibility of escape.
Lady Tia's mother and son had waited for him for twenty years, and of course he couldn't afford to keep them waiting. And the wife and children on the Wang Du's side have been together for twenty years anyway, even if this relationship ends now, it can only be said that it is a pity, not really completely unacceptable.
What's more, his son Martin in the royal capital is an adult and has the ability to support the family. With the social status of their mother and son, as long as he leaves a sufficient "inheritance", it is enough for them to live well.
And...... For a general, in his early forties, it is almost time to lose his social value. Taking advantage of this age to shine for the last time, leaving some political wealth, and being loyal to the Harrett family, this marriage itself has a great sense of "allegiance", and ending it in this way can be regarded as an end to his twenty years of glory and wealth.
As for Tia and Seri's mother and son, they have been waiting for twenty years, and it is only Singh who is waiting for him. Even if Singh wandered for 20 years and returned home with nothing, it would not be unacceptable for them......
"The Harretts appreciate Singeld's talents, so let Singall die for them, Tia and Seri are waiting for Singh, and it's just Singh going back...... You're a very interesting person, too. Feng Huang said, "This idea is good, but how are you going to implement it?"
Singled had obviously thought about it, and immediately replied: "The Duke of Harrett is adjacent to the Everglades, and over the years, successive dukes have tried to attack the Everglades and expand their territory whenever they have the opportunity. After this year's autumn harvest, there will definitely be another attack. When the time comes, I will take the lead and die on the battlefield, and no one will see any problems. ”
Emperor Feng nodded slightly, but the panda couldn't help but ask: "With your identity, dying in the battle of invading the swamp, this way of dying is not glorious, right?"
"How can there be no glory in dying in the battle to open up the territory?"
"But...... The Swamp is very weak!" Panda, who had been there as an adventurer for a while, was well aware of the military power of the local forces, "Except for the terrain, there is nothing in the Swamp that can stop you. In a battle like this, it is unlikely that a high-ranking officer will die in battle!"
"The Swamp has a lot of people with special skills, and those bizarre methods are endless, and they are impossible to prevent. In all the past Duke Harrett, there are people who have been killed in wartime, not to mention that I am just a mere general?"
Panda still shook his head: "If you want to leave a piece of glory, then it's best not to let General Singhald die so easily......"
Singled sighed, "But there's nothing better for me to do!"
"Well," Pratt suggested, "it's still early after the fall harvest anyway, so how about we help you refine your plan?"
Singled, of course, would not refuse, and he agreed with the traversers to talk in a few days, and then took his leave.
After he was gone, the traversers immediately began to discuss.
It was just the three of them, of course, they couldn't get any results from the discussion, so they posted this matter to the chat channel and asked everyone to help find a way.
"Let them all be wiped out!" said Locke, who had never been interested in this kind of war called Pioneer but Aggression, "and an entire army has been destroyed, and of course Duke Harrett should give these dead a mourning honor, which is also an honor." ”
“...... You're too ruthless, you're going to kill so many people as soon as you open your mouth!" Panda sighed, "Even if it's wrong to open up a war, it won't wipe them out!"
"It is not a pity to open your eyes for the invaders, to be a pawn for the invaders!" said Locke at once.
"You can't say that, politics is not just you beat me, I'll beat you. Liu Daoqing said, "Those forces in the swamp are also fighting each other all day long." It's okay for them to fight themselves, but it's a problem for others to hit them? I think your logic itself is a bit problematic. ”
Locke has long passed the age of repeatedly arguing with others, and for Liu Daoqing's statement, he just sent a sentence of "hehe, Elantz" and forget it. But what he meant, everyone naturally understands that most of the current territory of the Elantz Kingdom was obtained by invading the Molai Federation, and Liu Daoqing, as the beneficiary of the war of aggression, was born crooked.
After some discussion, Locke's suggestion was unsurprisingly supported by the majority of the time-travelers.
Among the traversers, the homecoming faction doesn't care about how many people in this world die, and the homecoming faction attaches more importance to the truth Obviously, Locke's words are more reasonable than Liu Daoqing's, and they can convince them more.
Even among the remaining activists and troublemakers, there are many people who feel that Locke is right, or simply want to toss the big scene like Loma, so when they finally voted according to the usual practice, those who supported "giving Harrett the invading army a head-on blow" had an absolute advantage, and the advantage was so great that Liu Daoqing and others just muttered a few words, and they couldn't raise the momentum to continue to oppose at all.
Once the general direction has been agreed, all that needs to be discussed is the details. At this time, Alice, who usually doesn't speak much, suddenly spoke.
"I'll leave the design plan to me!" she looked confident, "I've been studying puppet theater for the past few years, and I'm very knowledgeable about designing plots. I will definitely design a wonderful exit for him, so that the death of General Singhald will be remembered by the entire Trera Kingdom, and leave a rich political legacy for his family!"
"What are you going to do?" asked Panda curiously.
"For the time being, I just have a preliminary idea...... I plan to find a few more people to discuss it carefully, such as Fengyue, Lao Bai, Three Pigeons, and Aria...... Let's discuss it together. ”
The people she said, some of them are codewords, some are drawing comics, all in all, they are all literary and artistic workers, well, it should be no problem to say so.
The other traversers pondered for a while and felt that the design of the script should indeed be handed over to these professionals, so they agreed to this suggestion one after another.
It's good to leave professional things to professional people.
If there were only one or two people, such a group of professionals would be able to come up with a good script......
