Chapter 210: Outwitting the City Defenses

Under Savan's intimidation and bluff, Azil did not think about it, and reluctantly led a few people to ride on his horse and follow Savin towards the palace. In fact, Savin's words did not reveal specific details, it was entirely because Azir had a ghost in his heart, so he was bluffed by Savin.

Now Azil only has a burst of regret in his heart, how did he get on the duke's thief ship, it is really unlucky. However, he himself did not want to think about how he did not expect to be where he is today when he accepted the duke's money and promises......

Sawin looked at Azil with a depressed face, as if he was going to a funeral, and Sawin said in his heart: "This person is really a greedy and timid guy, although he will not bring any threat to himself if he stays, but in order to firmly grasp the city defense army in the future, he still has to get rid of it, but this matter is not in a hurry." ”

The group rode in silence, and when they came to a secluded fork in the road, one of Savan's men suddenly shouted, "My lord, what do you think is that?"

Sawin followed the man's finger into a dimly lit alley, a call that drew the attention of Azil and several of his men, and all eyes were drawn to the alley. At this time, Sawan suddenly glanced at several of his subordinates, and several of them understood and started to attack Azil and the others together.

After a series ......of beatings, I saw that Azir and the others were knocked unconscious and lying on the ground. Some of the surrounding residents were so frightened that they didn't even dare to speak, and they quietly hid in their homes. These city guards usually treat the people like tigers and wolves, but now that something has happened, none of the witnesses dare to speak out for fear of causing trouble for themselves.

Sawin nodded with satisfaction and said to his men, "Tie up, gag your mouth, and take it to the Duke's Mansion first." ”

His men quickly found a trailer, tied up Azil and the others and threw them on the cart, then covered them with a cloth, put them on their horses, and drove the cart to the Duke's Palace. When they arrived at the Duke's Palace, Sahain put the group in the custody of Narros, and then went with the group again to the city defense camp.

This time, Sawin ordered his men to change into the clothes of the palace guards, and a group of people came to the city defense camp again. When the soldiers guarding the gate saw that it was Savan again, they were so frightened that they hid aside and let them enter at will. At this time, the soldiers in the camp looked at a group of palace guards, and they all felt puzzled in their hearts, what did the palace guards do when they ran to the city defense camp?

You must know that most of the palace guards are the children of nobles, and these people usually don't pay attention to the city defense army, but now they are suddenly running in a fierce manner, I am afraid that something big has happened! Sawin and the others have been breaking into the core area of the big camp, which is the command post and the residential area of the officers, and many officers have run out of the barracks one after another when they see this situation.

Sawin still took out the badge, held it above his head and shook it, and then said in a loud voice: "All the officers of the city defense army will come out and assemble at once! I will count fifty times, and those who do not arrive will be punished for violating military discipline!" After speaking, Sawin gestured to the people around him, and everyone immediately began to count in unison.

The officers who were hiding in the barracks were puzzled at first, not knowing which play Sahain was singing, but when Savin's men began to count, these officers began to beat drums in their hearts, and they would not really be punished for violating military discipline, right?

When the number reached fifty, I saw that there were already more than a hundred people standing in front of Savin, and Sawin nodded secretly with satisfaction, it seemed that they were basically all there.

At this time, Savin took out an order that he had already brought with him, and read it aloud: "The commander of the city defense army, Baron Azier, left his post without permission and led the army out of the city without asking for instructions, so that the serious state of law and order in the city last night should be punished by death. Written by King Marves III!"

After the order was read, the officers were in an uproar, no one expected that Baron Azier, who was fine just now, would become a criminal in the blink of an eye, and everyone couldn't help but be worried when they thought that they were also involved in this matter.

Savin's cold eyes swept over everyone, and continued: "Baron Azier has made a serious mistake, and you are also jointly and severally responsible, but fortunately, the Duke of Amberton, the regent, pleaded bitterly, and His Majesty the King agreed to temporarily absolve you of your sins, I hope you will do it yourself, and you will not live up to Your Majesty's trust!"

The officers were secretly relieved when they heard that there was nothing to do with them for the time being, but their immediate superiors had been dismissed, so they should choose a successor from among the current officers, how could the prime minister concurrently serve as the prime minister, and what about this regent prime minister......

All the officers felt a hesitation in their hearts, but some people secretly rejoiced in their hearts, especially those who were not on good terms with Azil on weekdays, and they all laughed secretly in their hearts: "This guy also has today, he deserves it! He should have been arrested a long time ago, and he won't give us a little bit of money if he is greedy for so much ......money."

Sawan didn't care what these guys were thinking, and he was relieved to see that they didn't have a fierce backlash. Azil himself was a coward, and the officers under his command were all a nest of straw bales, which made it easier for him to quickly take over the city defenses.

Sawan continued: "This afternoon, the Lord Regent, Lord Amberton, will send someone to take over Azil's duties, I hope you will cooperate well, otherwise you will be dealt with as Azil's accomplices, I don't think you want to see such a situation, right?"

The officers nodded hurriedly, as long as their official positions are kept, who will come is not the same, those who should be fished will continue to fish, and those who should be greedy will continue to be greedy. However, a small number of people also had doubts, didn't they say that the prime minister came to serve as the commander, and why did he send other people? So someone asked: "My lord, the order just now said that the prime minister is also the commander of the city defense army, why did he send someone else, and who is the commander?"

Sawan sneered: "What do you usually eat? I don't even understand this? Your Excellency Prime Minister is so busy with official business, how can you have time to spend it with you! Your Excellency Prime Minister has chosen an excellent candidate to replace him in the post of commander, you must cooperate well with the work, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat, remember?"

As soon as Sawin roared, he immediately suppressed the arrogance of these people, and stopped talking one by one, but there were bursts of complaints in his heart, and it seemed that the new official would inevitably take office and toss. Some people have even begun to think about what benefits to give to the new commander, so that they can take the opportunity to rise to the top......

These officers thought that Sawin would leave after announcing the results, but they didn't expect that Sawin had no intention of leaving, and he was not at ease if he didn't see Hortz take over as the commander of the city defense army. While Sawan ordered that Hotts be informed to take over the command of the barracks, he ordered the officers to gather together in a barracks and wait, and that he was to talk to them individually, in the name of examining them on behalf of His Majesty.

Sawin knew very well that the fact that these officers did not mutini now was entirely because they did not know the situation, so they were full of fear, and once this fear was gone, it would be difficult to say whether these people would be obedient or not, so it was necessary to put continuous pressure on them until then, so that they would not dare to act rashly. Sahain's need to talk to each other individually was to intensify the pressure and make them understand that the sword hanging over their heads could fall at any moment.

The officers were called individually by Savan for questioning, and those who had been questioned were not allowed to return to their previous barracks, but were taken to the soldiers' quarters alone, so that they would not be connected to each other. As a result, every officer was filled with uneasiness, lest he should be caught by the king's messenger if he said the wrong thing, and his future would be doomed.

After some conversation, Sahain made a list of the names he thought were usable and unavailable, and when Hortz arrived, as long as the list was cleaned up, then the city defense army would be considered initially in his hands.
