Chapter XXXV: All-Army Congress 2
Decades later, whenever the veterans of Blair's territory talked about their military careers, the all-army conference after the extermination of the bandits was considered a turning point for them and the entire Blair territory. And from the autumn of that year, the entire Blair territory was like a giant beast about to wake up, and slowly began to roar of his own. There were so many things that happened that year, so many things that were turning points.
"I know that there has been a rumor circulating in the past few days among you and the inhabitants of the entire territory that the bandits in Blair's territory have been able to hold out until now because of outside support. Many people have asked me about this issue, and the reason why I have waited until now is because I want to talk to you about this issue at this all-army conference. After Bron retreated, the Prince of Ceylon drifted slowly and solemnly over the school grounds. Originally, everyone thought that the Prince's Mansion might acquiesce or ignore this issue, but they never thought that this issue would be brought up at this time. In fact, the entire territory has long been completely attracted by this problem, because it is related to everything that the territory has paid for so many years, those blood, and those lives. I thought it was over, but now someone tells you that what you have solved is only superficial, which is really difficult for these soldiers who have experienced countless wars. And as this question was raised, the whole school was completely shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.
"I would like to say sorry to all the soldiers and the subjects of the entire territory. The bandits and thieves in Blair's territory have been around for a long time, and this is an inescapable fact, but in the subsequent battle against bandits, because of my arrival, everyone paid more blood and lives than originally needed to exterminate these bandits and thieves, which is where I am sorry for everyone. ”
"Prince auspicious!" all the soldiers in the school field shouted in unison at this time. Just like the Prince of Ceylon said, the bandits and thieves in Blair's territory existed before the arrival of the Prince of Ceylon, and it was the arrival of the Prince of Ceylon that made the bandits and thieves in the territory have to retreat into the depths of the Blair Mountains, and finally had to integrate together to form bandits to fight against the continuous extermination operations in the territory, and it was also after the arrival of the Prince of Ceylon that the people of the entire territory really lived a relatively stable and peaceful life. If there is a fault, it is not the Prince of Ceylon, it can only be said that someone took advantage of all this against the Prince.
"Bring up Heath's Guard. Looking at the half-kneeling soldiers below, the Prince of Ceylon didn't say anything, but turned to the herald beside him and said. With the order of the Prince of Ceylon, a loud herald echoed throughout the school grounds. And the soldiers below were confused and puzzled. Captain Heath basically knows him in the elite troops, he is one of the followers brought in by the Prince of Ceylon from outside, in these years of fighting, the Prince of Ceylon's originally small number of followers has long been left, and Captain Heath is one of these few people, although he is the lowest level among these followers, but everyone knows that the Prince of Ceylon is the most trusted for these followers.
In the confusion of everyone, I saw that the Heath guard was escorted by several guards from the side of the high platform from a distance, and there was no rank mark on his body, except for the calm on his face, there was no heartiness and smile in the past.
"Hiss, tell everyone yourself. Seeing that Heath had come to him, the Prince of Ceylon was calm but reluctant.
Without saying too much, Heath turned to face the crowd in the schoolyard after saluting the Prince of Ceylon. I originally thought that I would be strong to finish the final journey, but after seeing the familiar faces below, looking at the doubtful and hopeful eyes below, Hiss suddenly felt that he still had a lot of reluctance, but there were some things that he couldn't turn back, and after trying to control his emotions, Hiss slowly spoke:
"Fellow soldiers, Heath is here to say sorry to everyone. It has been more than 30 years since I came here with the Prince, and here we have fought together, fought together, killed enemies together, and drank together. I used to call him my second home. But, I'm sorry everyone, I betrayed everyone, I betrayed the territory, and although there was a reason, I finally betrayed here. I gave the aid to the bandits inside the Blair Mountains. More closely, I provided me with information about the attack on the Logistics Department. As for why I betrayed you and to whom I threw myself, I am sure that the Prince of Ceylon will tell you when he returns. Everyone, I'll give you my blessing below......" Although he tried his best to control his feelings, Hiss couldn't help but choke up a little at the end.
"Hey~" Except for a sigh from the Prince of Ceylon, the whole school was extraordinarily calm, puzzled, surprised, unbelieving, and of course, angry, etc. "You don't have to doubt what Heath Guard said, the Prince's Mansion has enough evidence that Heath Guard is in contact with the bandits, although he has always been one of my earliest followers, and his betrayal this time is for a reason, but I can't forgive him or forgive him because of this. for it is an injustice to you, and to the people of the whole realm. If it had been because he was my earliest follower, because he had a reason not to pursue him, then there would be more Hiss among us in the future, and this is not me, nor what you want to see. Therefore, I declare to the ruler of Blair's domain: Hiss is guilty of collaborating with the enemy, and he will be executed. The Prince of Ceylon stood at the side of Hiss and spoke aloud to the people, full of determination and unquestionable. Hearing this verdict, Hiss did not feel surprised, but felt a sense of relief and relief. After all these years of living in his own contradictions and entanglements, he has long been tired, and now what he is entangled with is how to face the old brothers who came to Blair's territory together.
With the fall of the Prince of Ceylon's verdict, the guards who had been waiting on the side escorted Hiss to the execution table outside the school grounds, but he was not alone, as Hiss walked to the execution table, several escorted personnel also walked out of a tent outside the school grounds, Hiss knew them, they were a few of his own henchmen, and many things that he was not good to solve were carried out by them, just like that ventilation message, but Hiss did not have any sympathy for these people, it sounds like confidants, in fact, these people were arranged over there to monitor their existence, the reason why Hiss has not been able to be here and there over the yearsTheir surveillance role was the main reason, and now that these people were about to go on their way with him, Hiss did not feel much joy, but felt a wave of disgust. From the high platform all the way to the execution platform, the soldiers below have consciously given way to let him pass, as Hiss advanced, all the soldiers have given him Blair's military salute, so many years, in addition to betraying Hiss What he did has been affirmed by everyone, just like the Prince of Ceylon said, Hiss betrayed for a reason, at this moment no one has any anger and contempt for him, there is only deep respect, this is a kind of respect for the ancestors.
When Hiss came to the execution table, he turned to look at the high platform and the city of Blair in the distance, looked at the soldiers in front of him, solemnly gave a military salute of Blair, and then turned to stare deeply at the invisible fortress in the distance, where they had come. The group of teenagers who had just come to the territory full of ambition vaguely seemed to be yesterday, and the night of drinking and talking about their ambitions still seemed to be in sight. When all the other torturers were executed, Hiss motioned to the executioner beside him, and stood straight in the middle of the execution, not looking back at the place he had fought for, nor at the invisible fortress, only the constant sound of joy and laughter in his eyes.
This year, the mountain wind in Blair seems to be more violent and colder than in previous years, and when the wind rises, only that touch of coolness comes from the neck.
"Blair!!" accompanied by the roar of all Blair's elite soldiers, but Heath could no longer hear it, the Prince of Ceylon on the high platform was long gone, and he was worried that he could not help it. Blair's mountain wind seemed to be blowing more violently............
