Indeed, just as Uesugi Ryuya said, the other party's background has already been clearly investigated by their Imperial Intelligence Agency.

It is naturally very difficult for a country to send spies to other countries to obtain information about other countries, because the other side is not a fool and they will be on guard against you.

But for domestic intelligence, it basically depends on whether the Imperial Intelligence Agency wants to take care of it and whether it wants to investigate it.

Judging from the intelligence, Taro Tsumugi, who was shot and killed by Lieutenant Kobayashi, was indeed a hopelessly bad guy.

Ryuya Uesugi, who used to be a pickpocket, also changed his mind after experiencing something, and then worked at a construction site for three years, and at the age of eighteen, he joined the Eighth Legion of the Imperial Army.

At the same time, judging from the subsequent files, it can be said that his subsequent behavior was deeply influenced by Taro Tsumugi. Although he cannot be said to be a super bad good person, in the eyes of his comrades, he is already a typical bad good person.

Five years after joining the army, he was promoted to second lieutenant and was deeply trusted by his subordinates...

"Second Lieutenant Uesugi, what do you think of the current empire?"

Closing the file in his hand, Miyamoto Shingen asked the young man sitting in front of him seriously.

To be honest, when faced with this question from their colonel, Uesugi Ryu was obviously dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that the other party would throw such a question to him.

He opened his mouth a few times, but for a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

Regarding this, Miyamoto Shingen was not anxious at all, and just looked at him quietly, waiting for his answer.

This situation actually made Ryuu Uesugi feel strange.

Because, judging from the current situation, the other party does not seem to want to pursue the matter of killing Lieutenant Xiaolin.

Of course, this is limited to his personal feeling, and it may even be an illusion.

"I don't have any particular views on the current Empire, Colonel."

The answer was unexpectedly cautious, making Miyamoto Shingen sitting opposite him couldn't help laughing.

"Don't be so nervous, Lieutenant, I just want to know what you think."

Having said this, Miyamoto Shingen's voice paused for a moment, and then spoke again...

"Or, I can change the question. What do you think the empire will become if the current situation continues?"

Facing the questions Miyamoto Shingen threw at him one after another, Second Lieutenant Uesugi, who was thoughtful in his heart, spoke calmly...

"This is not what I should think about. I am just a young second lieutenant. I may not even be a second lieutenant anymore, colonel."

It can be said that Miyamoto Shingen didn't care at all about Uesugi Tatsuya's caution at this time. At the same time, what he said later made Uesugi Tatsuya sitting there completely lose his cool.

"It's over, the empire is over, Lieutenant Uesugi!"

At that moment, Ryuu Uesugi felt as if his entire heart had skipped a beat.

"Colonel, you..."

Ignoring Uesugi Ryuya's surprised look, Miyamoto Shingen continued to talk to himself...

"Today, there are only three islands left in the empire. The navy cannot get out and the army cannot defeat it. It is natural for the people to feel panic."

"The cities are now not only in chaos, but also rebels have broken out. At the same time, with the successive losses of territories, the gradual scarcity of various materials within the empire has caused the current prices to skyrocket. The price of rice has almost doubled.

Five times that!”

"According to statistics, nearly 40% of the population on the three islands in the empire now has insufficient food to eat. However, under this premise, His Majesty the Emperor did not choose the people. He chose to stabilize the army and then used extremely tough measures.

Means began to suppress the rebels."

"I can probably understand His Majesty the Emperor's thoughts. After all, in such a war-torn period, once you lose military power, you lose everything, and you will be dead. It is natural that you will choose to keep the army and temporarily abandon the people."

"But to be honest, after making such a decision, it would be fine if we could repel the enemy and reverse the situation. But the problem now is that even so, I don't think His Majesty the Emperor has a chance of winning. I can only

It is said that he is dying, but in the process of his dying struggle, he will put the lives of millions of islanders in vain!"

It can be said that Miyamoto Shingen's words made Sugiryuya feel frightened. The content of these words can no longer be described with the words "disrespectful".

It is no exaggeration to say that once word spreads, they will be regarded as rebels!

However, Miyamoto Shingen, who had already stood up, seemed to have no awareness of this at all. The moment his eyes fell on Uesugi Ryuya, he only heard him speak again...

"I plan to choose the people, how about it? Lieutenant Uesugi, are you willing to help me?!"

Although Ryu Uesugi was vaguely mentally prepared, when he actually heard these words, his whole heart still twitched uncontrollably.

"Colonel, do you know what you are talking about?"

"certainly."

After receiving this answer, Uesugi Ryu couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He could feel that at this moment, his heart was beating very fast, and the exaggerated frequency seemed to be beating out of his heart.

"Colonel, I hope you can answer my question, why me? After what happened before, you should know very well that I am not a selfless person."

"Here, do you want to hear the truth?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Ryuu Uesugi was stunned for a moment. Then, while feeling dumbfounded, he answered seriously...

"Yes, Colonel! Please answer me honestly!"

"Well, actually, no one can use it. This Imperial Army has been rotten for too long, even to the core. At a glance, everyone is a guy who doesn't want to die. People like you have already

It’s not easy, so I can’t ask for too much, I think it’s necessary to strive for it.”

"As for personal relationships, people are animals with feelings after all, and I also see shame on your face. I hope you can remember this. Everyone will be affected by feelings sometimes, but I hope you can abide by it.

Stay within your boundaries!"

For such an answer, Ryuu Uesugi felt at ease after being confused for a while.

Damn! Is this old man so real?

"How about it? Lieutenant Uesugi, do you want to come with us?"

At this moment, after taking another deep breath, he grasped the hand stretched out in front of him.

"Yes, Colonel!"
