I Will Be The Crowned King

Vol 5 Chapter 18: Solidarity

Satisfied, that's really satisfying. Is there anything more satisfying than a live target jumping into the shooting range and letting it shoot at will?

Klawn raised his eyebrows and lightly touched Major Russell's elbow to prevent him from agreeing too decisively.

Loading 8,000 soldiers and officers into the train, it will not take less than ten days to travel from Clovis City, Beigang Road... In ten days, his Storm Legion is invulnerable to bullets, water, and it is impossible to have no flaws; As long as there is an officer who is dissatisfied with Anson, or is weak and willing to be bought, the commander-in-chief is dead!

What, without the evidence of the stone hammer, it's like framing the blame? Just kidding, they are here to frame the blame!

One... As long as there is one charge of killing the Storm Legion and Anson Bach, there is no need to kill them. As long as the Storm Legion feels a sense of crisis and loses control, the purpose of the War Department has been achieved - it is logical to unite hundreds of thousands of standing troops. , with their ruthless anger to overthrow the Privy Council and welcome His Majesty's pro-government.

Perfect, it's so perfect, so there's a problem here... Lieutenant Colonel Klawen secretly said in his heart that years of experience made him full of vigilance.

From the moment they met, the commander-in-chief of the Storm Legion had a strange attitude that made people feel abnormal; every step of the action was in line with, or even exceeded their expectations; the two achieved everything they came here without much effort. Purpose.

But his suggestion not only looks perfect, but even the two of them have to accept it - you are reluctant to cooperate with the other party in the review, don't you take the initiative to confess that you have a ghost?

"Since that's the case, then we're done." After a moment's pause, Klauen smiled slightly: "As for the time to start..."

"I suggest that there will be a steam train directly to Clovis City tomorrow morning or early tonight." Anson suddenly steals:

"It was originally supposed to be a mix of passenger and cargo to deliver a batch of coal; we might as well have the Cecil family in Beigang come forward and package the car directly for us."

"As for the cost of chartering the car... The Storm Legion is not rich, but if a few are willing to nod, they can take the legion's public account - don't worry, we are collectively contributing, and there is no need to pay an extra copper plate from the Ministry of War."

"...Then thank you, as well as everyone in the legion." Lieutenant Colonel Klauen nodded slightly, and said calmly: "Since I owe you all the favor, please feel free to speak up if you have any conditions, it is within your duties. , never refuse."

"There are not too many special requirements, and there is only one thing to say."

The chuckling Anson raised his right index finger: "Since it is a chartered car by the Storm Legion, then we hope to give the first-class carriage to the Free Confederation Mission."

"Because they are foreign friends, please don't set foot in their compartment after getting on the bus, and don't ask them any cross-examination, is that okay?"

"No problem!" Krowne agreed very simply, and glanced at Major Russell beside him with a faint glance out of the corner of his eyes.

The latter, who understood it, was expressionless, but the corner of his mouth moved slightly.

Since all of this has been said, the Free Confederation mission must confirm it carefully before it is not worthy of Anson Bach's "Kang Qi".

"In addition, my brother Christian is also in North Harbor. He hopes to go to Clovis City with me. I will arrange him in the first-class carriage with the embassy, ​​please understand."

"No problem, it's what you should take care of your family." Klauen nodded with sympathy: "Don't say it's you, who isn't like this in the entire army?"

Great, and then there's one more subject to interrogate.

The two sides each said "Clap!" in their hearts, beating their own wishful thinking, and at the same time being alert to the traps that the other party might have laid.

It was completely impossible to see that just last night, one of the other party's colleagues and hired thugs were bombed into the sky, and the other was deliberately trying to frame the blame, so as to appreciate how the other party was robbed and beaten to death, and the punishment was clearly defined.

That's right, because of what happened last night, An Sen couldn't let the other party stay in Beigang for a long time - no matter how strong the Cecil family was in Beigang, it was impossible to hide everything with one hand.

At least for now, Anson is not sure whether there is still an army eyeliner in Beigang City, of course there should be; so they must not have any communication with these two Army Department officials.

Regardless of Beigang's attitude towards himself and the Free Confederation, the private alliance between the Cecil family and him, and the fact that all the pieces they had arranged in advance had been destroyed, the sooner the War Department knew, the better.

The less they know, the more sloppy they will be when they start, and the more flaws they will have; the passive self and the Storm Legion can take the opportunity to seize a certain initiative, instead of being led by several forces. Cannon fodder and tool man.

That's right, Viscount Bogner is also included... Anson glanced at the clock above his head casually, and it was already noon.

If it was Ludwig, this time should have appeared outside the station, right?

…………

"why?!"

In the secret room of the city council, the mayor of Beigang, who was already standing at the door, looked at Bogner, who was calling for himself: "You told me that Anson Bach was crucial to our plan; without him, we would have no one. An army you can rely on!"

"But it would have been worse if the War Department discovered our pact ahead of time!"

Viscount Bogner bit his pipe, his face sinking like water: "They still think they have the upper hand and don't care too much."

"Once outsiders realize that there are factions in the Privy Council that have privately formed offensive and defensive alliances with places, do you know what this means?"

"The powerful ministers colluded with the locality, and they are conspiring against each other." As the head of the Cecil family, the mayor of Beigang is of course clear:

"But they have no evidence. You are just a guest in North Harbor. No one forbids a nobleman to go to a friend's house to drink a glass of rum and taste special delicacies of different flavors from Clovis City."

Seeing how he was still trying to defend himself, Viscount Bogner couldn't help laughing: "Francis... oh, my dear old friend, I really hope that I can be as optimistic and cheerful as you, how life should be like that. Happiness!"

"It's a pity that this world is not about reason or evidence. Once the seeds of doubt are planted, people will start shooting arrows and then draw targets, so that the results meet their expectations!"

"For things like conspiracy, where do you need any evidence! As long as the army catches me here, they can make up their minds! It doesn't matter if it's true or not, because as long as we cross the line first, they can blatantly Cross all the bottom lines, and finally blame us!"

"When we fail, our comrades and enemies will not wash away for us; they will only scold us for being mean and accuse us of being cowardly - neither the courage to fight openly, nor the guts to play tricks!"

Viscount Bogner exhaled heavily: "Remember, this is a battle involving thousands of lives and deaths, and there is no room for emotion!"

"I don't care about emotions at all. I'm completely unfamiliar with the army officer named Anson!" The mayor of Beigang slammed on the door angrily:

"But he already knows your existence and the covenant between you and me. In case he decides to betray us in exchange for the trust of the War Department..."

"Impossible!" Viscount Bogner categorically vetoed: "You have underestimated Brigadier General Anson, he is not so cowardly and ignorant!"

"Oh, you mean that he will stick to the agreement and would rather die than give in?" The mayor of Beigang was very surprised:

"The ring of order is above, and it is rare to meet such a high-quality Clovis officer today!"

"On the contrary, our Brigadier General Anson is a very cautious, at the same time unscrupulous, and an excellent Clovis general with a flexible moral bottom line." Viscount Bogner shook his head:

"For him, the covenant with us is a very important bargaining chip. How could it be handed over hastily without even seeing the real leader of the Ministry of War? It would be too wasteful!"

Mayor of Beigang: "...Maybe we are not that important in his eyes?"

"But at least for now, it is in his best interest to cooperate with us." Viscount Bogner knocked on his pipe and retorted:

"In the Ministry of the Army, he is only a brigadier general, and the entire Storm Legion belongs to the group of people who are marginalized; no matter how much he tries to make ends meet, it is impossible to integrate into the circle of that group of people."

"But it's different here. He is the only important person who has military power and understands the military at the same time; and the existence of you and me can make up for his lack of connections and basic shortcomings."

"The positioning between us is of a fully complementary type, and either party is absolutely indispensable; it is precisely because of this that we will not betray each other easily."

The mayor of Beigang sneered: "The person who said this is preventing me from saving one of our most indispensable allies."

"That's right, because the Cecil family is more valuable in this covenant." Viscount Bogner said righteously:

"You are our biggest trump card. Even if it is me who is being questioned and caught now, if I make a choice, I will not put the Cecil family in the first choice of sacrifice."

"Sounds cruel, doesn't it? But the reality is for our common ideal, not to mention allies, even oneself can be sacrificed; I will regret if Brigadier General Anson can't make it through this, but if it is important for this The Cecil family, what awaits us will be an irreversible failure!"

"It's so good to tell the truth, I'm so moved." The mayor of Beigang laughed, but sneered:

"I hope that when the Cecil family ends up in the same way, you won't say the same thing to Anson Bach!"

"Of course not, you two have completely different values ​​from each other." Viscount Bogner disagreed:

"Please remember who you are, my dear friend, your value is far above ours!"

…………

"What value?! Fabian, you liar, I don't know what you're talking about!"

Staring at Fabian who suddenly ran in front of him and said, "Because of force majeure, I had to terminate the plan", Fu Laura looked extremely excited: "I have done everything according to your request!"

"Yes, Miss Laura's execution is perfect, even more perfect than I imagined." Fabian can only repeat: "But the plan has changed..."

"I do not care!"

Fu Laura categorically refused: "If there is an accident, then change to a new plan. Great adventures are never smooth sailing!"

"But this time it's really too dangerous!" Fabian was very tired: "Even if there was an accident before, I had a way to ensure your safety, but this time..."

"What about this time?!" Fu Laura dismissed it, looking at Fabien's eyes even a little threatening: "Or, you are not afraid of what happened before us..."

"You, you can tell your father now, Your Excellency the Mayor of Beigang."

"Hey?"

The girl who was stolen was stunned for a moment, and looked at the figure in front of her in disbelief: "You, you are not afraid..."

"I'm afraid, to be an enemy of a wealthy family like the Cecil family, how can a little guy like me not be afraid?" Fabian looked very sullen:

"But if you're going to be an enemy of the War Department, and you're going to be involved, then..."

"what?!"

Fu Laura suddenly widened her eyes: "You mean, that accident was... Clovis's War Department?!"

"As the bloodline of Cecil's family, you must have some understanding of it." Fabian nodded slightly: "Yes, the person standing in front of you has been taken by the army. The Ministry has been accused of being a traitor to the kingdom!"

"I advise you to keep a little distance from me from now on, and don't mention knowing me to anyone... If you don't want to be involved, it's better for you to stay in Beigang obediently."

For some reason, Fabian even felt very relaxed after saying these words - he knew that he was about to have a big disaster, but he secretly secretly rejoiced because he didn't have to get entangled with a "trouble".

This reminded him of his Uncle Joseph—the same one who would rather face danger than bear worries; for Uncle Joseph, who was about to set off from North Harbor, the one who always haunted him. You are actually a "burden", right?

If you think so, maybe the future self will become such a scum... Fabian couldn't help laughing at himself in the bottom of his heart.

"Being targeted by the War Department...wouldn't that be better?!"

"…Um?!"

Looking at Fu Laura who suddenly became elated, Fabian was stunned this time.

"Oh, Fabien, why don't you understand, a lot...cough cough cough!" The girl suddenly became serious:

"Many great adventures start from the moment you become a wanted criminal, hunted down, or caught!"

"Being hunted by arrogant and unreasonable forces, meeting fellow sympathizers, relying on each other, but calculating their own goals... The ring of order is on the top, this is the best beginning of adventure!"

"Yes, it's God, it's the Ring of Order telling us that the story of Beigang has come to an end, and the next adventure to Clovis City is about to begin!"
