Not long after Ed left Root's tent, Moko came looking for him.

"What? the granary is not kept," Eddard was also very surprised when he first heard Moko tell him, and Aseb rarely failed in his mission.

Moko nodded: "So, the president asked me to tell you that only half of the grain will be distributed today, and by tomorrow, this half will be sent more, and then the next day, a decisive battle with the empire"

Ed thought for a while: "Recently, the state of the Western Army has not been stable, it has not taken Pan Muminda for so long, the morale has been greatly affected, and the soldiers are already a little tired, if the food is deducted again, I am afraid there will be a mutiny"

Moko covered Ed's mouth: "Don't talk nonsense, I also told the president about this hidden danger, but the order remains the same, he must have other ideas, you don't care"

Ed nodded: "Okay, I know, you should also rest more, you should carry out the assassination the day after tomorrow"

"Someone has replaced me, and the day after tomorrow my task is only to assist," Moko said.

"Who?" said Eddard.

Moko looked at Ed and didn't speak, and Ed immediately understood, waved his hand, turned to leave, and went to count the grain.

The next day, half of the food was really missing, and without prior notice, the soldiers who were about to fight the war were starving one by one, and after a while, the entire Western Army camp was already full of complaints.

"Will... Sir, I have already lost half of the food according to your instructions, and now the barracks are full of complaints, which is too much of a blow to the morale of the soldiers, so let's send the other half down," Ed said as he entered Siselt's room.

"Why don't you knock?" said Siselt without looking at him.

"I... This matter is a bit urgent, and now the western camp has been clamoring for a backlash, saying that the empire can let them have enough to eat, and the east..."

"I ask you why you don't knock!" Siselt interrupted Eddard in a louder voice.

Ed looked at Siselt, since the failure to plunder Infit's talent, Siselt seemed to be a different person when he returned, and he felt that something was wrong.

"The president?"

"Knock on the door!" Cizer roared.

"Yes," Ed bowed his head and waited until Sisselt said "Come in."

Sisert looked up at him: "Is there chaos within the Western Army now?"

Ed thought for a moment: "I can still hold it down"

Sisselt nodded, he stood up, approached Ed, and hooked him around his shoulder: "Ed, you followed me when you served on the Great Western City Wall, compared to several of them, you were the first to follow me, and I have always believed in you"

"Yes, President," Ed nodded.

"I never dreamed of it...... How so?" Siselt looked at Eddard as if he were looking at a deceased friend.

"What?" Ed froze, not knowing what Siselt was talking about.

"It's nothing" Siselt suddenly let go of Ed, smiled, and sat back in his place, "I've thought about the internal riot in the Western Army for a long time, and I have countermeasures, but ......"

Siselt looked at him with a look that Ed had never seen before: "Need your help"

Ed looked at Siselt and had a feeling that he shouldn't have agreed.

......

When the army escorted Ed out in public, the noisy Western troops were quiet, and they didn't know what was going on and why the general military was locked up.

Siselt walked out after him, he looked at the disgruntled soldier, and said, "Everyone, I heard that your food has been deducted today, have you?"

"Yes!"

"Today, only half of the food from the past was distributed, who is enough to eat!"

“......” Siselt asked, and the soldiers seemed to explode.

Sisselt nodded, raised a hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and he continued: "After verification, this order was given by the chief military commander Ed, so now I have arrested him, and you have also seen that everyone is equal before military law! If everyone has no opinion, I will kill him now!

"Boss Sir, don't do it!" Rout was the first to come out and intercede for Ed.

"Root, you've been very close to Ed lately, now come out and intercede for him, be careful that I will correct you together" Sisselt raised his eyebrows.

"President Shuai, Ed Jun is also confused for a while, not intentionally, and he has worked hard in the military management to assist the commander in thousands of battles, and this alone should spare his life!" said Rutte on his knees.

"General Root, according to what you say, which of these people did not assist me in fighting all kinds of battles, big and small, and how can I serve the people when I act like this?

"Military law is ruthless, people have mercy, you can temporarily detain Ed's military management, waiting for the fate, at this time there is a big war, the Western Army needs Ed's commander," Rutter continued.

"What a person has affection, I also feel a little novel when this comes out of your mouth, well, Ed, I will not kill you for the time being, but I will step down from my position as a military administrator and be imprisoned in a military prison," Sisert said.

"Thank you, Sir," Ed said, and was escorted down.

"Soldiers!" Siselt continued, "this time the dereliction of duty in the distribution of food is also my dereliction of duty, and I am here to make amends to you!"

With that, Sisselt knelt down to make amends to everyone, and Root and the others hurriedly went up to help him up.

"Forget it today, General Root will take the post of commander-in-chief for the time being, and tomorrow, if there is another problem with food, I will behead him in public," said Siselt.

"President Xie, Shuai!" As the people who were planted in the ranks of the soldiers were introduced, the crowd slowly dispersed.

The food crisis has been resolved for the time being.

"Root, come to my room in the evening," Sisselt said as he left.

"Yes," Rout bowed his head and saluted.

After Sisselt left, Moko came to Root's side: "Good performance, Root's military manager"

"I don't understand what you mean," Root ignored Moko.

"In order to win the position, you have already started to lay out, and now you have seized the opportunity, and there is a reputation for speaking for your friends regardless of life and death" Mo Ke said, leaning into Root's ear, and whispered, "Tomorrow more than half of the food will be distributed, and the goodwill of the whole army will also be earned by you, which is really good"

"General Moko, I still have something to hand over, let's go first" Root was expressionless and turned to leave.

Watching Root walk away, Bwynette and Deinvi walked to Moko's side, Bwonet looked at Root's back and sighed: "Our general is starting to doubt his own people"

Deinvi nodded: "Root is a newcomer, and he doesn't know anyone well, he is the chief military manager, and the general is relieved"

Mo Ke didn't say a word, and finally said: "It's all gone, the decisive battle the day after tomorrow is more important, he can't do it for long"

......

That night, Root arrived at Siselt's room.

"Knock Knock"

"Please come in," Siselt's voice came from inside.

Rout bowed his head and came in, and Siselt saw him, smiled, and got up to hand him a small glass of spirits.

"President Shuai?" said Root, not understanding what he meant.

"The big war is coming, have a drink, hahahaha" Siselt sat down on the couch, "Come, sit down"

"Yes," Lu said, nodding.

Siselt drank a glass of wine, snorted briskly, and smacked his mouth: "Tomorrow, know what to do"

Root took a sip: "The subordinates don't know"

"Add the rest of the food and send it out so you can sit in this position at once," Sisselt said.

Lu Ting nodded: "President Xie Shuai"

"Between the two of us, you don't have to do this, just call me Lao Xi, although you have always been under Brint, but I have always liked your way of doing things, and the style of fighting," Siselt said.

"Yes, Old West," Lu Ting nodded.

Siselt took another drink and leaned comfortably on the back of the sofa: "Alas, drink a glass of wine and sleep, this little life seems to be not bad, by the way, Root, you said that you will do what you will do in the future if our Western Army wins?"

"Subordinate, just find a job and spend the rest of your life in peace," Root smiled.

"Then what's the matter, I'm going to reuse you, you have to be glorious and rich, how can I treat my brother badly, right, I'm not allowed to leave when the time comes, hahahaha" Sisert smiled, seeing that Root's wine was not going down, he frowned, "Why, this wine is not good, I just drank two glasses and it's okay, I don't remember the amount of alcohol you drank badly, didn't you still fight with Xitu?"

Lute was stunned: "My subordinates don't remember this"

"Hahahaha, forget it, forget it, come and have two more drinks, today, I just asked you to come over and talk about your heart" Sisert seems to be in a particularly good mood, good is a little abnormal.

Not long after, Siselt was a little drunk and unconscious, and he collapsed on the couch.

Root didn't drink a few glasses, he was very conscious, and the wine in his body was directly purified by him with the fire element, he was afraid of being cursed or poisoned.

Looking at the collapsed man in front of him, a strange luster flashed in Root's eyes.

"President Marshal?" pretending not to know that Sisselt had fallen asleep, Root screamed a few more times to make sure he was sleeping very deeply.

It's an opportunity!!

A little spark came out of Root's right hand holding the glass, and he looked at Siselt.

With just one click, you can pierce him!

Sicelt even snored.

Just one moment, and the war is over!

Root walked into Siselt, and the flame in his hand began to expand.

"Did he really sleep?!" Rout suddenly withdrew the flame in his hand, he felt that something was wrong, Siselt didn't need to be like this, this timing was too coincidental.

"President, I'll help you back to bed to rest" Rute picked up Siselt on his back, and when he heard him snort, he slowly carried him to the back room and gently put him on the bed.

"Jeroman!" Siselt snapped his eyes closed, and suddenly exclaimed.

Rout turned around and saw that Sisselt was talking in his sleep.

"Jeroman, just with us... Say yes as well... As soon as the decisive battle starts, you will take the Black Flash Corps to fight back and kill all of Brynt, so that we will win!Hahahahaha, Brint would never have dreamed that we would clear your suspicions, and he will actually be the biggest traitor in the empire, hahahahahaha!" Siselt said, falling asleep again.

Root's heart trembled, as if there was a thunderclap!

He seemed to see the picture of Jeroman rebelling against the water during the decisive battle, which was more terrifying than any picture, the imperial army would collapse and rout, if it was true, this was a mortal danger!!

Although cold sweat flowed down the "President Shuai", Root's expression remained unchanged, and he called a few more times to confirm that Siselt had fallen asleep, "President Shuai, his subordinates retire." ”

The door closed.

In an instant, Siselt sat up, his eyes clear, not at all the appearance of a drunken man.

"Moko, follow him closely and see if he has any strange behavior!"

"Yes!"
