Chapter 54: A word wakes up the dreamer
Not to mention whether the relationship between Captain Cao and the royal family of the Beamon Empire is as indistinguishable as Lambis said, let's just say that Captain Cao's character, generally smart people should know that he is born an extralegal fanatic and is destined to be undisciplined. Even now the leader of the Southern Expedition, Heinrich's face, Captain Cao, does not give him, it is conceivable that there are a few people in this world who can make him regress. If the cadres of the raiding regiment were here, they would probably laugh out loud when they heard Rambis's words.
"Lord Rambis thinks so highly of me, it really makes me feel ashamed. It's true that I have a bit of a relationship with you Wolfe, but that doesn't mean we have to have a relationship. Wolf's thighs are pretty thick, but I don't want to hug them right now. To put it bluntly, I will always work only for what I believe in and refuse to be a puppet under any big man. Captain Cao touched his nose, smiled faintly, and rejected Lambis's proposal.
"Sure enough, he is indeed an iron-clad man. However, Rambis did not show any disappointed expression, as if he had already predicted this result, and did not say anything unexpected, and even showed a little appreciation. Seeing that Captain Cao was stunned, Lambis also explained: "Actually, I don't think you are the kind of person who is willing to be subservient, but the Wolf family is not old and decrepit alone. The reason why I have such a conversation with you is more at the request of some old fellows who are older than me, those who have no eyesight, who feel that anyone who has some ability and does not know the camp wants to search the big ship. As for whether you agree or not. It doesn't really matter to me. ”
Rambis's words made Captain Cao suddenly realize, and Captain Cao felt strange, in terms of today's contact with Rambis. No matter how you look at it, Rambis seems to be a humorous gentleman, and very wise, and should not say these words inexplicably. Now that the situation has been clarified, it turns out that he is just representing the Wolf family to test the meaning of Captain Cao. Lambis also made it very clear that the errand fell to him, and he himself did not petition much. The two looked at each other for a long time. Suddenly, they all stroked their palms and laughed, which was very tacit.
"Maybe they think that the Wolf clan has a significant influence in the Bimon Empire, so they have a corresponding attraction to many people. Or maybe I'm someone Cao is arrogant. I don't understand what the world is. It would have been someone else's stupid refusal to make such a tempting offer. Head Cao patted this high-quality customer on the shoulder affectionately, and he didn't mind anything at all. The reason why he is so open and honest with Rambis is because Captain Cao has a very good impression of Rambis. Just to what Lambis just said. You can feel that this is a very enlightened gentleman. It's not like the so-called old antique aristocracy. What Lambis said even questioned the camp behind him.
"Don't say impossible, nothing is impossible. Those old fellows of our Wolf clan are not so sensible fellows, and it seems to me that it would be better for people like you to show up, lest they still live in a world of self-esteem. Someone has to say no for them to understand. Times have changed. This is an era of turbulence and heroism. Relying on those outdated ideas, you can't get mixed up. Lambis took a deep drag on his cigarette and continued, "I studied your information before you came. From my own point of view, Captain Cao is a terrible person. Even I'm sure it won't take long for Captain Cao to shine brightly. Why should someone like you rely on someone else?"
"Oh, is Lord Rambis so contemptible?" Captain Cao smiled noncommittally, even if Lambis said that Captain Cao was very comfortable, but Captain Cao would not be immediately flustered. Once upon a time, Captain Cao also thought that with his own ability, it was just a matter of thought to be in this world, but the actual situation made Captain Cao understand that objective facts will not change according to personal subjective consciousness. In this world, which is not advanced in terms of system or civilization, it is more difficult to get ahead than Captain Cao imagined.
"Of course. In the eyes of others, you may be an arrogant guy, or you may be a crazy person with no self-knowledge, but I think they only see the appearance. In the eyes of the old man, Captain Cao is by no means something that those vulgar people can understand. Only true heroes can be true colors, and they are true celebrities. At least since you came to Memphis, you've always acted in your true colors, which is different from most people. Lambis looked at Captain Cao very calmly and said slowly.
Captain Cao, who has always been talkative, was speechless by Rambis, and Rambis's evaluation of him, even Head Cao himself did not expect it at all, which was very high. This very wise ice wolf gentleman made Captain Cao feel unfathomable in an instant. Putting aside everything else, the essence of what Lambis said was exactly the same as what Captain Cao had in mind. Captain Cao was more crazy and reckless in many cases. But in his own words, he did this for a purpose, that is, not to let the world change itself, so what is it that does not keep his true colors?
"The old man has been in this southern Xinjiang for decades, but there are only two people who have seen the real heroes, and you are the second. The first one, it seems that you are already familiar with it. Let's not talk about who hugs whose thigh, if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, Lao Yu very much hopes that our Wolf clan and Captain Cao can reach some cooperation in some aspects. Without waiting for Captain Cao to answer, Lambis added a few more words, and this time, Lambis's words were full of sincerity. Obviously, he is still a very conscientious person, even if he does not sincerely complete the important tasks entrusted to him by the organization, but he uses a more intelligent method to achieve his goal, and this method is useful for people like Captain Cao.
"Of course, there's nothing wrong with that, just for Lord Rambis-sama to look down on contemptible. If there is an opportunity to cooperate in the future, the contemptible person will definitely not refuse. Head Cao nodded and hesitated for a moment. He added: "In my opinion, not to mention the long term, just tonight, in this place, there are heroes and heroes from all over our empire. Mr. Rambis's opinion of me in such a way really makes me feel a little ashamed, the first person you are talking about. Who's that?"
"Commander Cao, can't you pretend to be confused with me? There are a lot of talents here, but it's just a lot of talents, not the real heroes I think. As for you coming to Memphis to participate in the Southern Expedition. Didn't you just say that outside? Didn't he recommend you? You and Leonardo are the only two amazing young people I've seen in all these years! Leonardo and I have some friendship, and that adult is also a person with a transcendent eyesight. So many years. Has anyone ever heard of him recommending anyone? As far as I know, you're the first. Leonardo's views on the Southern Expedition are almost different from everyone else, and the starting point of his recommendation must also be to set things right and let others do it!" Lambis's eyes were burning, and he didn't detour at all, and even said it very bluntly.
These words directly made Captain Cao couldn't help but look around secretly. In an instant, Captain Cao felt a lot of cold sweat break out on his back, and Lambis's words were really not ordinary bold. was taken out by others and compared to Leonardo. This head Cao has already experienced it, but he doesn't mind much. What really made Captain Cao nervous was the words behind Lambis, setting things right? This statement is very sensitive, Lambis undoubtedly expressed his attitude, and has the same opinion as Leonardo, and Captain Cao has been speculating about this matter for a long time before.
"In this way, Lord Rambis doesn't think it's the right thing to do to launch the Southern Expedition?" Regiment Leader Cao also took a deep sip of spirits, trying to suppress the surprise in his heart.
"Of course, I don't think it's the right thing to do to take the initiative to crusade against the southern barbarians, and I even think that without Leonardo in charge, this southern expedition will make us suffer a lot. In addition to smart people like Leonardo, there are also people who can see through the essence of the Southern Expedition, such as the commander-in-chief of our Southern Expedition, Lord Heinrich. If you take a closer look, this big man, when has this time really been easy? I've never seen him smile since he came to Memphis. As far as I know, he's not a serious guy to that extent? Why? Because he doesn't have any score in his heart. Lambis sighed, once again giving Captain Cao more knowledge.
Rambis's revelations today, for Head Cao, are almost equivalent to breaking the ground, at least before that, Head Cao didn't think of what Rambis said. Even if Commander Cao realized that the active southern expedition was not too correct for the empire, Commander Cao still thought that with so many powerful armed forces gathered in the empire, no matter how you look at it, the Beamon Empire is a stronger side, or the winning chance is very huge. But this phenomenon, for the authentic local of Rambis, seems to have no influence at all, which really makes Captain Cao very strange.
Looking at Heinrich who was negotiating with those dignitaries in the distance, Head Cao suddenly felt that what Lambis said was very reasonable, Heinrich really didn't have much cheerfulness in anyone's eyes, but gave people a feeling of being preoccupied. Before, Captain Cao was full of thought that he was pushed down to this position, it should be majestic, but the actual situation is diametrically opposite to Captain Cao's thoughts, which shows that Lambis's judgment is very reasonable, and Lambis is indeed a very discerning person.
"So, the vast majority of people here now are too naïve, thinking that everyone can reap a lot of benefits through this southern expedition. They only saw the thief eating meat, but they did not see the thief being beaten. If it were that simple, wouldn't the empire have already leveled the barbarians in the south? Those barbarians could not be underestimated, and while we were making progress, others were not idle. Lambis shook his head with a wry smile, a little more worried about the country and the people.
"Captain Cao, you don't realize it now, in fact, I can understand it, you don't know much about the southern barbarians. Since Lord Leonardo wants you to come, he must have seen something unusual from you, and maybe you may become a dark horse in this southern expedition. As far as I know, you've been trying to figure out how to squeeze into the front line lately, right?" Lambis once again brought the conversation back to Commander Cao.
"I don't deny this, you can even think that I am just an ordinary person, but I have made up my mind to make some war money. The expedition to the south is a very rare opportunity for me and my organization. Captain Cao was also honest and honestly answered Rambis's question.
"Then I'm here to give you advice, you don't have to be in such a hurry. It is impossible to finish this southern expedition without some time, and it is meaningless for you to be too enthusiastic now. Our Wolf clan have also dealt with the southern barbarians for so long, I can guarantee that before our army can move south to their territory, the powerful southern barbarians will be able to give us a headache, and when the time comes, there will inevitably be a gap in the battle sequence on the front line, and at that time, are you still worried that there will be no place for you? You can also take this opportunity to get to know our enemies well......" Lambis gave Commander Cao a suggestion very seriously, and there was absolutely no joke.
Captain Cao fell into deep thought, and when he came back to his senses, he didn't even notice when Lambis left. Through Lambis, Commander Cao suddenly had a different view of the Southern Expedition, and his thoughts did change. The most intuitive point is that there is no holiday between Lambis and Captain Cao at all, and the problems he pointed out will definitely not be a preparation for Captain Cao. Who is good to himself, Head Cao still has a clear telling.
Looking at the snow appreciation dinner where singing and dancing were leveled, Head Cao suddenly had a feeling of confusion, which was a kind of confusion about the future. Is it really correct to regard the barbarians in the south as human targets? Is it inevitable that they will make a lot of money in the southern expedition? (To be continued......
