"A few shots at his feet!"
Ouyang Yu, who has been using the war system to command remotely, gave an order directly in the second lieutenant's brain, anyway, he had already decided to tear his face and didn't care about angering Minister Zuo, if he could fight better, he would directly kill him in the name of Avril, even if he couldn't fight, he could suppress Minister Zuo's momentum.
"Bang! bang!"
After receiving the order, the second lieutenant did not hesitate to take out the TT-33 and shoot it three times at the feet of the Minister Zuo.
These three gunshots suddenly made the atmosphere at the scene tense, Minister Zuo was dragged back by his guards, the soldiers of the garrison raised their guns again, and the soldiers of Ouyang Yu's army in the outpost also entered a state of fighting at any time, although they were few but not afraid.
Second Lieutenant Ouyang Yujun held a pistol emitting blue smoke and shouted loudly: "One last warning, those who trespass on the manor will be killed!"
"Damn rude rude mercenaries!"
Under the protection of the guards, Minister Zuo was sent to the back of safety, although the three shots just now were only at his feet, but they also made him taste a taste close to death, as a civil official, and pampered, where did Minister Zuo have been threatened like this, those three shots broke his courage, and the expression that was invincible before was replaced by the fear of death.
For the first time, I felt that death was so close to me, Minister Zuo was afraid, and he was afraid and did not give the order to attack the garrison, which made Ouyang Yu, who had arrived but did not appear, rush to regret, since she couldn't fight, then she had to come forward, and it was impossible to keep stalemate like this.
"Wow....... β
Ouyang Yu's command car stopped at the outpost, and there were more than 100 people in the personal guards who came with her, Ouyang Yu was afraid of death like Minister Zuo, and at the same time, the battalion that protected her under the cover of night also moved to the left and right of the garrison, and lurked together with the tank battalion.
"What's going on, why did you shoot?" asked Ouyang Yu, who got off the command car, asked the second lieutenant in a pretentious manner.
"Comrade Report Leader, just now someone tried to enter the manor without permission, and I had no choice but to shoot and warn. β
"Do you know the identity of the other party?"
"The other party called himself the Marquis of Charles Maurice de Taleurand PΓ©rigord. β
"What? Your Excellency Marquis Charles is here?! Bastard, Your Excellency Marquis Marquis, you dare to shoot to stop it, it's too unusual, go back and lock me up for a day!"
"Yes. β
After a clumsy performance, Ouyang Yu shouted loudly to the garrison: "Your Excellency Marquis Shire, Your Excellency!"
Hearing Ouyang Yu's shout, Minister Zuo tidied up his somewhat messy clothes, tried his best to restore his serious appearance, and then slowly walked in front of Ouyang Yu under the protection of a bunch of guards.
"Ahem, Miss Ouyang hasn't seen you for a long time. β
After being suppressed, Minister Zuo's momentum was inevitably a little insufficient, and his previous thoughts about Ouyang Yu's questioning were gone.
"Your Excellency Marquis, the uneducated people of my subordinates just now scared you, I apologize to you, I'm sorry. β
Ouyang Yu was also protected by more than a dozen guards to talk to Minister Zuo, because under her orders, several accurate marksmen with the best marksmanship secretly aimed at Minister Zuo, so she was afraid that Minister Zuo would also come to do this, in case something happened, the guards around her could be used as a meat shield to help her block bullets.
"Those who don't know are not guilty, and the officer is just acting on orders. Minister Zuo, who didn't have the confidence he had before, didn't plan to argue with Ouyang Yu on some inconsequential issues, "Miss Ouyang, I heard that His Royal Highness the Grand Duke is in your manor, I hope you can ask her out, it's very unsafe outside during the war time, she must return to the foolproof Duke's Palace." β
"Your Excellency Marquis, His Royal Highness the Grand Duke is indeed here with me, but she is here as a guest, and she will naturally go back when she has had enough, when it comes to safety, there is no safer place in the entire Duchy of Lucerne than me, you don't need to worry. β
Minister Zuo had long expected that Ouyang Yu would not simply hand over people, so he immediately promised benefits, "Miss Ouyang, you have made great achievements in reinforcing the south before, and you have taught the imperial army a hard lesson, the principality has not rewarded you well, and now I will promote you to a first-class viscount on behalf of the principality, expand the fief three times, and reward 100,000 silver coins." β
Minister Zuo's conditions are indeed very good, from the lowest third-class knighthood to a first-class viscount, the difference of nine levels in the middle is indescribable, and the area of the fief has been tripled, and the minister Zuo has made a bloody investment, the nobles with fiefs are the soil emperors in the fiefdom, and they can do whatever they want, and the land is becoming more and more important after the alchemy industry is opened in another world, and it is the dream of many nobles to obtain or expand the fief.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, Ouyang is grateful, but His Royal Highness the Grand Duke seems to think that my small manor is very good, and it doesn't seem like going back now, so you still don't need to persuade me." "Ouyang Yu doesn't care about titles and fiefs at all, her pursuit is incomprehensible to Minister Zuo, so she is not at all moved by Minister Zuo's bribery.
Since he couldn't induce Minister Zuo to use coercion again, " Miss Ouyang, it seems that you are really determined to prevent His Royal Highness the Grand Duke from returning home, you will only bring disaster to yourself, look at the heroic soldiers around me, they are well-trained, their morale is high, and there are many people, just the hundred or so mercenaries under your command can't stop them, I advise you to ask His Royal Highness the Grand Duke to come out, what I just said is still valid, otherwise, when my army breaks through your manor, I won't even give you a chance to cry!"
Minister Zuo, who didn't understand military affairs, thought that if there were more people in the war, he would definitely win, and there were three or four hundred people on his side, and there were only more than a hundred people on Ouyang Yu's side, so he would win no matter what he thought, so he resumed his domineering posture.
Although Minister Zuo's idea is indeed good in some aspects, the real war is definitely not more than people, there are many examples of winning more with less, whether it is on earth or in this other world, and the soldiers of the garrison under his command are definitely not well-trained and have high morale, and the large number of people is still up for debate.
"Your Excellency, do you think you will win?
With Ouyang Yu's words, dozens of flares were fired high into the air, and the miserable white light emitted by the flares illuminated the outpost and the vicinity, illuminating the old faces of the garrisons and Minister Zuo who were crowded on the road.
With the light of the flare, Minister Zuo found that he didn't know when, he and the garrison were surrounded by Ouyang Yu's army, and the steel helmets on the heads of the soldiers of Ouyang Yu's army on both sides of the road reflected the light of the flares.
"Hehe, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, Miss Ouyang, I didn't mean that. β
Minister Zuo is a qualified politician, when he saw that his side was at a disadvantage, he instantly changed his face, it was not his forte, intrigue was what he was best at, seeing that Ouyang Yu could not use strong methods to force Ouyang Yu to hand over Avril, he played the trick of luring again.
"Miss Ouyang, just now I felt that the reward for you was too small and unfair, and the reward for a female god of war like you, who has made great achievements, should be more, second-class...... No, the title of 1st Earl, the fief is expanded by four times, no, five times, the bonus...... 500,000 silver coins, what do you think of such a reward?"
"I think it's good, Charles-sama, you can send the award file here tomorrow, I approve it!" said Avril Avril.
Avril had been sitting in Ouyang Yu's command car without a road before, she heard all the conversations between Ouyang and Minister Zuo clearly, seeing that Minister Zuo was hard and soft, and the conditions offered were too tempting, I was afraid that Ouyang Yu would not be able to resist the temptation and really hand himself over, so he had an idea, and said the above words in front of Ouyang Yu. The fief and bonus were not given by Minister Zuo to Ouyang Yu, but by her lord Avril Lavigne, the subtext is that Minister Zuo can give you Ouyang Yu, and I can also give it to you.
Ouyang Yu smiled, smiled very happily, and Minister Zuo's face became very ugly, Avril's borrowing flowers and offering Buddha were so good, even the elimination and beating not only made Ouyang Yu get benefits, but also made Minister Zuo lose his wife and soldiers, and had to realize the reward for Ouyang Yu, in front of hundreds of soldiers on both sides, it was impossible for him to change his words.
Minister Zuo tried to calm his mood, and his right hand touched his chest and bowed slightly to Avril, "It's Your Highness, the old minister obeys orders." β
Seeing Minister Zuo succumb, Avril smiled happily, walked to Ouyang Yu's side, plucked up the courage, took out his grand duke's posture, and said loudly to Minister Zuo: "I still have to play here with Sister Ouyang for a few days, with Sister Ouyang's protection of my safety, you don't have to worry, I will go back when I have played enough, you can take your people and go." β
No matter how arrogant and domineering Minister Zuo is, he is still a courtier, Avril is the king of a country, in front of hundreds of people, he did not dare to disobey Avril's order, he could only bow and salute aggrievedly, and then returned to his carriage with a stomach full of anger, ordered the rear team of the garrison to change to the front team, and reluctantly left Ouyang Yu's manor.
