Chapter 955: The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it
Hearing the conversation between Marshal Lucas and Anne, Wu Lai and the others suddenly realized.
Wu Lai said to himself: "It turns out that this guy of Bodo XIII really has a problem. Listening to what Marshal Lucas said, I understood that Bodo XIII leaked the voyage route to the Teresa Empire in order to kill Anne and cut off the Lane family. This guy is so ruthless! In order to kill Anne, even the main fleet of the Tenth Fleet did not hesitate to take in. ”
Han Xue bowed his head and said: "It is said that emperors are ruthless, but I really saw it this time!"
He Wen laughed and said, "Husband, my intuition is right!"
Wu Lai bowed his head and said, "Of course, I said that a woman's intuition is very accurate. He Wen smiled charmingly at him, which made Wu Laichun's heart ripple for a while, and he couldn't wait to correct her on the spot immediately.
"But why did he want to make Marshal Lucas the last one? As far as I know, Marshal Lucas has made great contributions to the empire!" Wu Lai and the others did not understand this.
Han Xue muttered: "There must be a story, let's listen to what Marshal Lucas has to say first." ”
Wu Lai and the others continued to listen, believing that Marshal Lucas would definitely have an explanation, and he would not deceive his granddaughter. Moreover, he didn't know that anyone would eavesdrop.
I heard Anne ask: "Grandpa, why did Bodo XIII kill our family? You are the god of the Imperial Army, the patron saint of the Empire, and you have made such a great contribution to the Empire, it can be said that without you, the Empire would not be as brilliant as it is today." Isn't he going to destroy the mansion by dealing with you?" Anne didn't understand this, no, I should say extremely incomprehensible.
"Silly boy, haven't you also contributed a great deal to the Empire in recent years, and why would he kill you?" asked Marshal Lucas with a smile.
Anne was stunned, then lost in thought. "Yes, I have also made so many contributions to the empire over the years, exterminated countless pirates, and kept the border peaceful, even if I have no merit, I have worked hard! But this emperor is so ruthless that he wants to sentence me to death. Moreover, if it wasn't for my grandfather's reminder, I couldn't have imagined that the traitor who leaked the sailing route would be him. It seems that it is not worth it that I have done so much to the empire over the years. Anne was stunned. How can she not be disappointed when something that she was very proud of turned out to be worthless and meaningless? Not just disappointed, but disappointed to the extreme.
Marshal Lucas sighed and said: "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it! Grandpa's light is so dazzling. The prestige in the empire was too great, so that Bodo XIII was like a man, and he had a sense of crisis. In his heart, he was only truly relieved when I died. The empire needs heroes, but it doesn't need living heroes, it needs martyrs. Heroes become martyrs, which is what the empire wants to see the most, and the dead naturally do not pose any threat to the imperial power. This is the heart of the emperor. Grandpa was deeply favored by His Majesty Pota XII and was willing to do his best for the empire, and he died. As a result, he was lucky enough to win the war against the Deran Empire, and established a great feat, which can be regarded as a little contribution to the empire. But I didn't expect that His Majesty Hata's ambition would die before it was rewarded, and his successor, Hatata XIII, was narrow-minded, had no stomach to tolerate people, regarded me as a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, and always wanted to get rid of me as soon as possible, so he set up my political enemies in the court, suppressed me, and secretly dealt a shady hand on me. I gave in like this, and he still wouldn't let us go. Your father was actually smart and talented since he was a child, but he didn't like to show it, and he was so low-key that he even died. Judging from your affairs, Grandpa suspects that your father's death actually has a lot to do with Porto XIII, but there is no evidence, and Grandpa can only knock out his teeth and swallow blood. And you, who are smarter than your father and show some talent, grandpa has always felt that it is nothing, after all, you are a daughter. I didn't expect your watch to be a little too dazzling, so that he noticed you. He was so mad that he didn't even let you go, and he didn't hesitate to take a main fleet. It is really a misfortune for the empire to have such a dim emperor!" said another deep sigh. He had become utterly disillusioned with Bowdo XIII.
Marshal Lucas's words shocked Anne very much.
"Could it be that father really killed that fellow?" muttered Anne. Her father died early, she lacked father's love since she was a child, and her mother fell ill all of a sudden because of her father's death, and she died soon after, in fact, Anne was an orphan and depended on her grandfather. The impression of my parents is still in my childhood memory, and it is a long time ago.
Marshal Lucas sighed deeply: "Alas, grandpa is just suspicious, there is no evidence, even if there is evidence, it has long been eliminated, and I can't find it if I want to." Grandpa finally figured it out now, why was you assigned to the Fifth Patrol of the Imperial Frontier as soon as you graduated? At that time, Grandpa was still very puzzled after hearing what Norton said, but he didn't expect this to be the reason. ”
Anne asked curiously, "What is the reason?"
Marshal Lucas smiled bitterly: "This is obviously what Podo XIII meant. He wants you to die at the border. You know, the Imperial Border Patrol has a very high mortality rate, and as far as Grandpa knows, the Fifth Patrol is the patrol with the highest mortality rate. I didn't expect that after you arrived, not only did you not die, but you were quickly promoted, exterminated countless interstellar pirates, and gained a lot of military merits, what a blessing from God!" With such a high mortality rate, Anne survived, isn't it God's blessing?
Anne didn't have to think much about it to think that Marshal Lucas had a point.
The Fifth Patrol did have a very high mortality rate, nearly 85 percent or more. However, she survived tenaciously, and finally became the captain of the patrol, and with her indomitable courage, she annihilated many invading interstellar pirates. Later, even the interstellar pirates were terrified when they heard her name. In interstellar pirate circles, Anne is known as a pirate killer and has a great reputation.
Such an excellent military genius, Bodo XIII actually wanted to kill her, this guy is really stupid to the extreme.
With such an emperor, the day of the extinction of the country and the extinction of the species is not far away!
Marshal Lucas's step-by-step guidance made Anne quickly think about the cause and effect.
Bodo XIII was jealous of Marshal Lucas's prestige and high achievements, so he was quite jealous of Marshal Lucas. The clever Marshal Lucas clearly felt the jealousy of Bodo XIII, and he resigned and went into hiding. Where did he think that he would retreat to such an extent, and Bowdo XIII would not let go of his family.
Anne's father's death is suspicious. He was patrolling the border on a warship when he was attacked by a fleet that fired only at the ship on which Anne's father was riding, and the battleship was instantly destroyed, and the fleet did not do anything to the other ships around it, but quickly withdrew.
Perhaps it was the secret hand of Bodo XIII who wanted Marshal Lucas to cut off the incense.
At that time, Anne's father was dead, and even the enemy did not know who it was. When Anne grew up, she always believed that her father's death was related to the interstellar pirates, so she regarded all the interstellar pirates as her father's killers and tried her best to exterminate the interstellar pirates.
When Marshal Lucas heard of his son's death, he burst into tears and suddenly became more than ten years old. Later, he worked hard to train Anne, but he didn't expect Anne to almost die in an ambush by the First Fleet of the Delan Empire.
