Chapter 36: Who Decides Fate
"That's the big deal you're talking about?" Xu Yi looked at Kennard with some amusement.
Seeing Xu Yi's still relaxed appearance, Kennard was stunned.
"Elder, isn't this a big deal? Count Andre has already recruited all of them, these people are all from the Candela Empire, and they are subordinates of the governor of the southern provinces of the Candela Empire. Now that more than 600 people have died here, do you think the Governor of the southern provinces of the Candela Empire will let it go?"
Xu Yi smiled and asked, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Kennard had obviously already thought about it, and replied without hesitation: "This matter obviously cannot be concealed, and in my opinion, we should immediately arrest the Baron Prado and his more than three hundred subordinates in the name of Congress, and then hand them over to the Duke of Windsor." ”
"Hmm...... From an objective point of view, Kennard's approach is not bad. Xu Yi nodded, and then the conversation changed. "But...... Kennard, have you ever thought about a question? Do you know why this Duke of Windsor suddenly sent so many men to our Duchy of Statein, and still look like he is sneaky?"
"This ...... None of the Duke of Windsor's subordinates have taken the initiative to explain, and I don't know very well. Kennard hesitated.
Xu Yi laughed, patted Kennard on the shoulder and said, "You, it's better to focus on the internal management of the Chamber of Commerce, and don't pay so much attention to other aspects." What about the Earl of Andriy and the Duke of Windsor's men? ”
Kennard frowned and glanced at Xu Yi, he seemed to hear some other meaning from Xu Yi's words.
Could it be ...... In fact, the elders had anticipated and prepared for this. That's why you seem so calm?
Puzzled, Kennard took Xu Yi to a hospital in the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Previously, the Duke of Windsor's subordinates and the Baron Prado's subordinates were at war with each other. The end result was that only thirteen of Baron Prado's men were slightly wounded. However, the Duke of Windsor's subordinates lost more than 600 people, and the remaining 2,000 people were all traumatized of varying severity.
Now that all these people have been sent to this hospital, this originally large hospital is directly crowded, and even the open space is filled with people.
Fortunately, it is still early autumn, and the weather is still slightly hot, so it is bearable to lie outside.
Xu Yi and Kennard when they arrived at the hospital. The outside was surrounded by the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, blocking the communication between the hospital and the outside world.
Although this has had a certain impact on the normal life of the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, there is nothing to be done about the situation.
As soon as I walked into the hospital, I heard a loud and noisy sound inside.
"Call your president, or we'll tear down this place now!"
"Why don't you let us go! How dare you lock us up, do you know who we are?"
"...... the"
......
Xu Yi suddenly raised his hand, and a small fireball came out of his hand, instantly hitting the chest of a person who was scolding loudly in the courtyard.
This guy wears full-body armor, but he doesn't have much resistance to magic. After being hit by a fireball, it immediately emits a pop. The whole person flew out directly upside down and fell on the grass without a sound.
All the noisy sounds disappeared in an instant, and everyone's eyes instantly focused on Xu Yi.
Xu Yi saw that he didn't look at them, turned to Kennard and said, "Since you have captured them all, why don't you disarm them? Wouldn't this increase the danger now?"
Kennard was stunned: "Lord, this ...... They...... They're from the Candela Empire......"
Xu Yi shook his head, ignored Kennard, and turned to beckon to a captain of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team who was on guard in the distance.
After he came over, Xu Yi pointed to the subordinates of the Duke of Windsor of the Candela Empire in the courtyard and said, "Get me all the weapons and equipment on them." Let these guys remain armed in the important place of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?"
The team leader was stunned by Xu Yi's scolding, glanced at Kennard, and saw that he didn't speak, so he nodded, and quickly signaled the guards around him to step forward to remove the arms of these Duke of Windsor's subordinates in the courtyard.
Although these people still want to resist, there are a large number of strong and agile alien races among the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, not to mention that the equipment of the two sides is very different, even under the same conditions, they will never be the opponents of the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, not to mention that now because the vast majority of people are injured, they can only reluctantly accept the fate of being disarmed.
Kennard silently looked at the situation in front of him, a hint of thought in his eyes.
Seeing that the outside finally calmed down, Xu Yi and Kennard entered the hospital.
Xu Yi didn't mean to see Count Andre at all, and went directly to the room prepared for Shalon.
Three days had passed since the battle between Chalon's men and Baron Prado's subordinates, and Chalon's had already come to his senses.
When Xu Yi and Kennard walked in together, Shalon was lying on the bed, looking sideways out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
After hearing the sound of someone walking in, Sha Long turned around, first saw Kennard, and then fell on Xu Yi, his eyes shrank slightly, and then he stretched out, revealing a smile.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're President Xu Yixu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right?"
Xu was also a little surprised: "Do you recognize me?"
"No, I guessed. Sharon shook his head.
"Guess?"
Sharon pointed to Kennard, who was standing behind Xu Yi: "Except for the president, I don't think anyone can let this Kennard CEO stand behind him, right?"
Xu Yi glanced back at Kennard and couldn't help laughing.
"Very well, it seems that you are a smart person, so that I don't have to talk so much nonsense. Xu Yi pulled a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed, waving his hand to let the rest of the room retreat, leaving Kennard alone. "It's okay for me to call you Baron Chalon, right?"
Sha Long smiled: "It's good to call me Sha Long, it's just a defeated general, what's the point of calling me a baron or something?"
"Defeated by Baron Prado's subordinates, but it has nothing to do with our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Xu also immediately denied it.
Sha Long glanced at Xu Yi meaningfully: "President Xu, do you dare to say that the military magic machinery used by Baron Prado's subordinates has nothing to do with your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"
Xu Yi smiled and said nothing.
Sha Long suddenly let out a long sigh: "President Xu, in fact, before I really came to the Duchy of Stantin, although I conducted a lot of investigations on your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I still looked down on you very much in my heart. But I didn't expect it...... I had just landed in the Duchy of Stantin, and reality gave me a slap in the face. ”
Speaking of this, Sharon took another breath, his face became stern, and he stared at Xu Yi and asked, "President Xu, please tell me, is the military magic machinery used by the subordinates of Baron Prado we met before all the military magic machines produced by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"
Xu Yi still smiled and said nothing.
Sha Long immediately understood what Xu Yi meant, and continued: "It seems that this is indeed the case. Okay, President Xu, I think I probably get the idea, and you can tell you what you mean by now. ”
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh again.
This Sharon is really a smart person beyond his expectations.
It's good and saves him a lot of effort.
And if Saron is good enough, he might be able to change his plans accordingly.
"Uh...... Baron de Chalon, I have only come to announce something to you. Xu Yi finally spoke.
"What's the matter?"
Xu Yi took out an official document from his arms and handed it to Sharon.
"Given that you have led three thousand heavily armed soldiers to the territory of our Duchy of Stantin without permission, Congress has now designated you as an illegal armed invasion. According to the rules of the Principality, you and your men will be imprisoned pending a final conviction. ”
"Really?" Sha Long's expression was indifferent, he didn't look at the official document at all, but stared at Xu Yi and asked, "President Xu, do you really plan to do this?"
"It's not that I'm going to do it, it's that you're breaking the laws of the Principality, and it's the decision of the Parliament. Xu Yi explained with a smile.
Sha Long snorted lightly: "President Xu, just now you said that you don't need to talk so much nonsense. In my opinion, both of your sentences are all nonsense. It's not the damn Principality of Stantin's parliament that will decide our fate, it's you and the Duke, I think you know as you know. ”
"Yes, I know that. So I've decided to lock you up for now, and as for what will happen in the end, it's up to the Duke to react. ”
Xu Yi responded with a smile and stood up.
Seeing that Xu Yi was about to leave directly, Sha Long suddenly felt a little anxious, and raised his voice and said, "President Xu, everyone is a smart person, I know what you want to do." Now that I've seen it myself, I think it's entirely possible for us to work together. As long as you let me go back, I can definitely convince the Duke that he is not to blame!"
"Isn't the past to blame?" Xu Yi smiled lightly. "I'd like to be able to cooperate, but it also depends on whether you are so important in the heart of the Duke, right?"
Sha Long was speechless for a moment, and his expression became a little hesitant.
Although he thought that he should be one of the most trusted subordinates of the Duke, he was not sure that he would continue to maintain this trust in him after taking 3,000 of the Duke's most elite men to the Duchy of Stantin.
Seeing his appearance, Xu Yi shook his head, beckoned to Kennard, and left the room together. (To be continued......)
