Chapter 334: Dark Loss

After everyone saw Gray sit down, they sat down at the round table one after another, but many people could only stand on one side of the hall because of their low positions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, Gray looked around the round table, in addition to the already generals, such as the father and son of Alok, the generals in the county were also there, and couldn't help but smile and glanced at Aloke, and said lightly: "Deputy Commander Aloke, you arrived quite early, I heard that you entered the city with the county guard at noon today?"

When Alok heard him say this, he just smiled faintly and said, "What the Lord Commander said is right, today I know that Lord Commander has entered the city, so I specially went to meet him outside the city, but I just followed the rules." ”

"Lord Alok knows the rules, but I think the rules are made by people, and only those with strength are qualified to set the rules, are you right?"

When Alok and the others heard this, the people below naturally didn't dare to say anything, but Martin on the side was a little dissatisfied, but Alok immediately smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

Gray snorted coldly, originally he was a little dissatisfied with this guy who was not from the Northwest Army, but today I heard that this guy not only went out of the city to greet the county guard, but also seemed to have some friendship with this new county guard in the past, so his attitude towards him at this time was naturally not very friendly.

Thinking of this, Gray frowned, and asked at the side of the judgement, "Mr. Guard, I want to know when the county guard will come?"

As soon as Gray finished speaking, and before he could answer him, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door of the ceremony hall, and Gray glanced at it, but saw a young man in a gray robe. Behind him was a tall fat man dressed as a military general, and many officials who were originally in Sadland immediately recognized this guy as Gould, the deputy commander of the previous county!

Vice-Commander Gould?!

Immediately, several young officers looked at the fat man with excited expressions, and Martin behind Alok stood up directly, watching with surprise on his face as the fat man followed behind the adult.

This young man was tall and thin, his face looked quite delicate, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth between his eyebrows, needless to say, it was the new county warden of the county town of Sadland, the so-called "Lord Viscount of Sadland"!

"I've kept you waiting. After José approached the round table, he immediately looked around, and his eyes fell on Gray's body: "This general must be Gray's commander, right? I have heard your name in Duke Ellios's army at the beginning, and General Ronkedo has praised you very much, saying that he is one of the few generals of the Moxi Qingzhuang faction." ”

"Lord Gunden is polite. Gray heard him say this, but there was no change in the expression on his face, just a faint smile, and then stood up and gave a military salute, which was regarded as a response to Jose.

José smiled slightly, walked to the chair at the front of the round table, and slowly sat down on the chair: "Presumably, some of you already know me, while many are not familiar with me. My name is Sadland José, and I am currently the Governor of Sadland and the Garrison Commander, as well as the Lord of Sadland and the title of Viscount of the Empire. In the days to come, I will work with you in Sadrand County, manage the military and government and people's livelihood in Sadrand County, and contribute to the stability of the western frontier of the empire.

After José said this, Gould took a piece of parchment from the soldiers on the side, and then spread it out in front of everyone, on which were the local seals and letters of appointment appointed by the Imperial Military Department and the Moxi Governor's Palace. Many people had already applauded, but the guys dressed like Gray and the several Imperial officers sitting behind him had a cold expression, and their expressions did not change.

Listening to this sparse applause, Qiao Se couldn't help but sneer in his heart, but his face was silent and continued: "I won't say much other nonsense, I have summoned you here tonight, mainly to get to know you, and to learn about some affairs in the county by the way."

As you may know, since the outbreak of the war in the Northwest, Sadrand has not had a county warden for nearly a year. After the end of the war, Moxi was the territory of the empire, and His Majesty the Emperor naturally appointed me to Moxi to take office. It's just that I also know that during the Northwest War, many generals of the Northwest Army fought bloodily to defend the western frontier of the empire from falling into the hands of Macedonian aliens.

I know that after the war, all the affairs in the county were taken care of by Commander Gray and others, but it made you worry a lot, and now that I have arrived, I naturally can't put my courage on you anymore. Otherwise, the news will reach Valen, and the Sistine Governor will punish me for dereliction of duty, haha......"

José's words were light-hearted, but many people listened to his words, and their faces showed a more or less strange look: This new county keeper actually said it directly? Some of them were surprised, some were puzzled, some were worried, and some were a little disdainful and cold.

Naturally, the expressions of these people fell on Jose's eyes, but he talked and laughed as if he was blind.

But when Gray heard this, he couldn't help frowning, looked at Jose and said, "Oh? What the county warden said is not right, since you are the county warden and garrison chief of Sadland, the military and political power of the county town is naturally in your hands. I'm just a general of the army under the rule of an adult, so how can I talk about presiding over government affairs?"

José shook his head deliberately and said, "Isn't that right? I remember that when I entered the city today, the soldiers of the garrison clearly said that the orders and armaments in the city were all issued and executed by Lord Gray, and even if I wanted to enter the city through the main gate, I still had to need a warrant from Lord Gray!"

Gray heard Joseph say this, but smiled coldly and said: "At that time, the lord did not officially enter the Sadland to take office, and someone naturally needs to be in charge of the city's government affairs and armaments. Besides, the war in the northwest has just ended, the situation in the valley corridor is unstable, and Sadeland, as an important border town, naturally cannot afford to lose its safety.

As the general of the city commander of the county of Sadland, Gray naturally has to strictly defend the city defenses, and I need my warrant to open and close the city gates every day, and it is also to ensure the stability of the city defenses. Hmph, Gray can only say that he has offended you, Lord Guard......"

You're afraid you're deliberately trying to offend me, right?

Jose smiled coldly in his heart, this guy deliberately said this, just to make Jose suffer a secret loss. Mention the seriousness of the matter above the city defense, even if Jose is dissatisfied with him in his heart, if this incident is used as a reason at this moment, it will naturally make people feel that this county keeper does not distinguish between public and private, and his bearing is too small.

But what kind of person is he, even if it is with His Majesty the Emperor, he is not willing to suffer, hearing Gray say this, although he is unhappy in his heart, but the smile on his face is a little bigger.
