Claude frowned and asked the admiral, "You are still in the prime of life, why did you retreat bravely?"

Admiral Farina lit a cigar and bit it, cocked his sharp white beard, knocked on the table comfortably and said with a smile: "I also want to retreat bravely, but the old man of the Third Division and the Sixth Department will not let me go, and he insists that I be the Minister of War."

"Marshal Karl?!, did he die?" Claude knew what was going on with this transfer. Farina was promoted, so let the obedient Claude fill the vacancy of the dragoon commander, and Claude was promoted, and the vacated position could be promoted to the officers below, forming a promotion chain that involved the whole body.

Farina nodded heavily. "Sacrificed. He said it simply, without much mention.

Claude glanced at the list again, and saw that Farina's lineage officers and student alumni had risen one after another. Because a single vacancy can form a promotion chain, and many people were sacrificed in this battle, and multiple vacancies were promoted at the same time, which triggered an unprecedented and spectacular promotion chain, which almost caused a major change in the military department, and the core departments were full of reliable soldiers.

Claude understood Farina's intentions in showing him the list. Claude is an old friend of Farina and a beneficiary of this promotion. At the critical juncture of this mass transfer of posts, since Farina happens to be able to speak and make a contribution, there is no reason why they should not unite and cooperate, and there is no reason why they should not let the military department be reshuffled and become the base camp of nationalist and radical officers.

"Bringing like-minded people together is the only way to create a magnificent future for the Empire. Farina bit her cigar and squinted at Claude: "The dragoons will be handed over to you, take good care of my daughter." ”

Claude was a little uncomfortable, he felt that he had contributed too little and was not entitled to enjoy the sweetness. But the water in the military department is too deep, and those who don't want to fight for power are in high positions, and those who harbor ambitions are depressed and can't get ahead, these things are all controlled by the laws of the underworld, and they are not something that Claude can refuse.

"I will do my best, and I will die for myself. Claude returned the draft list with both hands, slapped his heels and saluted Farina.

From then on, this was the supreme commander of the War Department. Therefore, even if the Dragoon Commander and the Minister of War were only one level apart, Claude saluted in advance to show his allegiance.

Farina was a little tired, waved his hand, and told Claude to retreat.

Claude returned to the reception room and told Officer Lu the general situation. The blonde elf smiled sweetly, "It's okay, I think with Victoria watching, Ferdinand can't make trouble." She hated her dirty clothes and hurriedly resigned and returned to the Holy See.

Because the dragoons and Lu galloped back to the city, they left all the carriages where Xiao Qian was imprisoned behind. The army dragged outside the city for a while, and the king suddenly announced that he was going to the roadside forest to relieve himself.

Because Claude, Officer Lu, and the three division commanders all rushed to help, leaving only two lieutenant colonels to lead the team. The two looked at each other, and even if they understood the meaning of "house arrest", they did not dare to openly contradict the king. They had no choice but to release Xiao Qian, and let a lieutenant colonel with a battalion of musketeers accompany Xiao Qian to the forest every inch of convenience.

Even if Xiao Qian became a king, he was quite angry when he was stared at by a large group of men and took off his pants, and suddenly turned his head and roared: "So many people are staring at the king, what kind of system is it? Turn around for me!"

Under Long Wei, the cavalry lieutenant colonel had no choice but to order: "You all turn around." Then he himself accompanied the king into the forest.

Not long after, there was a scream, and the cavalry lieutenant colonel shouted: "The king has fainted!" only to hear the sound of rustling bushes, the cavalry lieutenant colonel rushed out with the disheveled old king in his arms, and rushed to the carriage in a disheveled manner, sending the king back to the car, and drove the car with a whip of the six gods: "The cavalry team is all following, send the king back to the imperial capital for first aid!"

Another lieutenant colonel of the cavalry saw that when his colleague carried the king over, the king's hand was dangling underneath and swaying, and he looked like he was completely lifeless, and he immediately broke his courage, and while leading the only cavalry team to escort the carriage, he asked his colleague in a loud voice: "Why did you faint all of a sudden?

"Hopefully!"

They hurriedly drove the carriage into the imperial capital, and the two lieutenant colonels immediately divided their labor, one rushed to the military headquarters to report, and the other escorted Luan to drive straight into the Hofburg Imperial Palace, and the cavalry lieutenant colonel escorted the carriage all the way to the lower palace, and Frederick and Elena, who urgently returned to the palace, were already waiting with the royal personal doctor.

"What's going on?" said Frederick, hurrying to open the carriage door, asking what was going on.

The lieutenant colonel of the cavalry did not dare to conceal it, and all reported: "Halfway back to the city, the king was going to the forest to go to the toilet, and Lieutenant Colonel Hans led a battalion to keep an eye on it, but the king suddenly fainted, and Lieutenant Colonel Hans and I sent the king back for first aid." ”

Frederick opened the car door and beckoned the doctor to follow him in. The results are available in a second.

Frederick stuck his head out and asked the cavalry lieutenant colonel with a blushing face, "Is this a king?"

Then Frederick threw the old king, who was in disheveled royal robes, out of the car, and his movements were so rough that even Elena held her lips.

"Father!" Elena hurriedly lifted her skirt, and when she opened it to the king, she saw a yellow-skinned officer wrapped in a royal robe, waking up quietly, his face with white eyebrows and fake beards, and his head buried in his fine clothes, so that he could not tell his actual age without looking closely.

Elena let go in fright and shouted, "This is not a father!"

The cavalry lieutenant colonel looked confused, leaned over to take a look, and shouted: "Lieutenant Colonel Hans?!, aren't you ......" He hurriedly looked up and pointed to the "old king" to distinguish: "There are two lieutenant colonels Hans! I obviously saw Hans running back with a man in the royal robe, and that Hans also looked exactly like a real person, I ...... I can't even tell which one is real and which one is fake!"

Frederick jumped out of the car, helped the "old king" on the ground to his feet, stared at him and asked, "Are you sober? Are you Lieutenant Colonel Hans?"

The "old king" shook his head to wake up, and when he stood up, he saw the empress in front, hurriedly took two steps back, and bowed his waist to report: "I am Hans, the lieutenant colonel commander of the Second Cavalry Division, and I deserve to die! I was ordered to protect the king, but I was knocked unconscious, please punish me for dereliction of duty!"

Frederick asked another lieutenant colonel of the cavalry: "According to you, it was the old king who stunned your comrades, and then disguised himself as a colleague, and went back to the city with you in Haiti?"

The cavalry lieutenant colonel was incredulous and shuddered to admit: "I swear, it is indeed so......"

"What about the fake Hans?" asked Frederick.

"He wanted to go back to the military headquarters to report, so he parted ways with me when he entered the city. The lieutenant colonel of the cavalry told the truth. (To be continued.) )
