Chapter 207: Angering the Duke
Dragon City was still as peaceful as it had been, and the Imperial fleet had not arrived in the days that Suluru had left.
The whole city was as quiet and peaceful as ever, but there was an extra tension in the city during the war preparation period.
The most intuitive manifestation is that when the steam train returns, it needs to be checked and audited before entering the station.
Sululu's return really made many people feel happy, and all the Dragon City officials who received the news rushed to the station to wait.
When the steam train stops at the station, many carriage doors open at the same time.
The first thing people waiting at the station saw was not Suluru, but the uniforms of the military police and soldiers lined up.
After those complete sets of military uniforms and equipment were lifted off the train, the atmosphere in the entire station instantly became heavy.
The people waiting at the station, seeing such a scene, can already understand the difficulties encountered in this trip.
Some of the people who came to wait for their friends and relatives have begun to sobble quietly.
After the uniforms were lifted off the train, Sululu stepped out of the cab, stood on the platform and bowed deeply to everyone, and said in a sad voice: "I'm sorry everyone, I can't bring back all the military police and soldiers intact, and I am ashamed of everyone's trust in me." ”
Seeing Sululu's appearance, not to mention the people on the platform, even Duke Lin and others who stepped out of the carriage also felt a burst of sadness.
Lin Aiwei whispered to Duke Lin: "Father, is the war really so cruel? ”
Duke Lin sighed: "Alas, some things will still be destroyed in the war after all, and this is the most terrible part of the war." ”
In an atmosphere of pathos, those military uniforms and equipment were escorted out of the station.
And under the greeting of the people of Longcheng, all the military uniforms and equipment were sent to the small square in front of the city hall.
Sululu came to Duke Lin's side and said, "Your Excellency, please come with me to the city hall." ”
Seeing that Sululu looked like a master, Duke Lin felt very dissatisfied.
gave Leng Feng a look, and Leng Feng immediately stood up with his previous arrogant posture and said, "Sululu, don't forget your identity, you are not the lord of Dragon City now. ”
As soon as Leng Feng said this, it immediately caused dissatisfaction among the people at the station, and many people surrounded him.
Duke Lin, Leng Feng and the others didn't expect that the people of Dragon City would dare to surround them like this.
Faced with the angry expressions of those people, Leng Feng forcibly swallowed back the words that followed.
Duke Lin also felt very helpless, so he could only say to Sululu with a wry smile: "Since you have been kindly invited, then let's go." ”
Such a sentence is equivalent to admitting that Sululu is now the lord of Dragon City.
Duke Lin and the group of people under his command, even if they were unwilling, but in the face of the angry public opinion in front of them, they could only compromise with Sululu.
Walking out of the station and on the way to the city hall, Duke Lin and the people under his command were all shocked.
The whole Dragon City looks quaint, but there is a strong mechanical atmosphere in it.
More importantly, although the war has not yet begun, the whole city is already filled with an atmosphere of war readiness.
And Sululu has obviously won the support of the people in the city, and many people in Dragon City along the way will take the initiative to salute him.
Seeing the scenes along the way, Duke Lin's mood could be described as very uneasy, and he felt that it was very difficult to recapture Dragon City.
The cold wind that followed Duke Lin didn't dare to say much along the way, and he didn't want to anger the people again.
The station is a short distance from the town hall in the central city, and it was supposed to be a steam car.
However, because of the equipment to escort the soldiers and soldiers who had died in battle, everyone switched to walking.
This way of walking can actually be regarded as Sululu showing Duke Lin and others his influence on Dragon City.
Although Duke Lin and the others felt very unhappy, the current scene really made it difficult for them to deal with it.
In the small square in front of the town hall, Sululu held a grand triumphal ceremony for the soldiers and soldiers who died in battle.
Almost the entire population of Dragon City came, and the sound of cannons and gunfire resounded in the sky above Dragon City, as if to show everyone the exploits of the deceased.
Seeing such a magnificent scene, Duke Lin also had to admit that Sululu really attached great importance to the soldiers under his command.
Sululu then informed the people of the harvest of the trip and told the situation of the purified town.
The officials of the town hall were ordered to immediately allocate a large quantity of grain and send it to the purified town by steam train.
Of course, the personnel in charge of the escort were all selected from the group of people who traveled back and forth with Sululu, and the detailed transportation process will be left to be explained later.
In the end, Sululu introduced Duke Lin and others to the people, and said the identity of Duke Lin: "Duke Lin is a big man from the capital area, this time in order to be able to resist the attack of the imperial fleet, Duke Lin brought the strongest knights under his command, which can be regarded as a support for our Dragon City, and at the same time, Duke Lin also has a knight order, which is now on the way." ”
Hearing this, Duke Lin was taken aback, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at Sululu.
You know, the knights who crossed the sea are the last hole cards in his hand.
But what Duke Lin didn't expect was that Sululu knew about it, and he said it in public.
Duke Lin felt that Sululu's approach was clearly showing off his might to him, and he didn't take him seriously.
Although Duke Lin did not immediately show his dissatisfaction in front of the people of Dragon City, his eyes were already full of anger.
Leng Feng seemed to sense Duke Lin's dissatisfaction, and reminded Duke Lin in a low voice: "Lord Duke, you must be patient. ”
Reminded by the cold wind, Duke Lin gradually restrained the anger in his eyes and tried his best to keep himself calm.
Sululu glanced at Duke Lin, but he didn't care about Duke Lin's thoughts, and continued to tell the people something.
When the crowd dispersed, Sululu invited Duke Lin and the others into the town hall.
The moment he stepped into the city hall, Duke Lin finally couldn't bear it anymore, and directly opened his mouth and scolded angrily: "Sululu, don't go too far, do you really think I'll be afraid of you?"
Facing Duke Lin's roar, Sululu stopped, turned his head and squinted at Duke Lin, and said very calmly: "It turns out that the knight regiment is your Excellency the Duke's reverse scale, it seems that if that knight regiment is on the road and is intercepted, I'm afraid you will be very painful, right?"
Duke Lin was even more angry, his eyes were full of fierceness, and he wanted to rush up and fight Sululu desperately.
But he was stopped by the cold wind, and the cold wind no longer pretended to be proud, but saluted Sululu very gracefully.
Stopping Duke Lin, who was very excited, he said to Sululu: "Lord Su, if you do this, I'm afraid you will only make us enemies. ”
Suluru smiled and looked at the cold wind, and replied with a smile on his face, "You finally stop pretending to be brainless? (To be continued.) )
