Someone in the crowd shouted out, and a group of people ran towards Lien. Some people couldn't wait to shoot at him with their guns, but he dodged them.
The shouts of men and the sound of gunshots filled the sky.
It seemed that he had already died under the gunshots before he even touched Richard's tent. Lien's eyebrows were heavy, and he pulled out the saber from his waist, preparing to fight to the death with the people who rushed forward.
.
At the critical moment, the tent behind him suddenly lifted up, and a strong arm pulled Lean into the tent.
Lean turned around suddenly, and after seeing those dark brown eyes, his tense muscles relaxed, "How did you know it was me?"
"Who else would be so bold except you?" The man with brown eyes raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"The man is gone!"
"Oops, could he have slipped into the Major General's camp? The Major General is in danger!"
There was chaos outside the camp. Richard turned his head slightly and said half-jokingly, "Everyone is looking for you outside. It seems that you can't escape tonight."
"If I can't escape, then I'll use you as a shield," Lean took out the saber from his waist and waved it towards Richard.
Richard crossed his arms and raised the corners of his eyes slightly, "You came to me in the middle of the night, do you just want to cause such a commotion?"
"Of course not," Lien waved his hand and shook his head, "I have something else to ask you."
Richard raised his hand and pointed to the bottom of the bed, with a hint of slyness in his heroic brows, "Then, I will wrong you first."
"That person must be here with the Major General. Let's go see the Major General quickly!"
The shouts outside the camp were getting closer and closer, and footsteps followed one after another. Lien curled his lips slightly and hid under the bed without saying a word.
Almost at the same time, the group of panicked soldiers rushed into the camp shouting, "Major General! Are you okay?"
Richard wiped his gun carelessly, looked up at a group of fully armed soldiers, and raised his eyebrows, "Why did you get in?"
"There was a suspicious person outside just now. We are worried about your safety, so we wanted to come and take a look."
Richard insisted, "There is no suspicious person here."
"But Major General, the man just now clearly came towards you, and we also found traces of water left by him outside."
"What do you mean by this?" Richard stopped what he was doing. He looked up at the soldiers in front of him, his dark brown eyes filled with coldness. "They were making a lot of noise outside in the middle of the night without passing by me.
He gave me permission to break in here without permission, and he said there was a suspicious person. Please open your eyes and see, who else is here besides me?"
A few soldiers scanned the surrounding area. The spacious tent and the slowly burning fire were all normal. There was no suspicious person anywhere.
The group of people looked at each other, and the leading soldier bowed slightly and said, "Major General, I'm really sorry for disturbing your rest. We are very sorry."
Richard put the cleaned pistol into his waist, "When you're done reading, go out, I want to rest."
"Yes!" The group stood at attention and saluted, "Major General, please have a good rest. Let's go look outside again."
After saying that, they left the camp.
"That man must still be nearby. Go look for him over there and be sure to catch him!"
"yes!"
The voices outside the tent gradually faded away, and the people under the bed also came out.
Richard raised his chin and glanced at the corner, "I said, you are wet, don't you want to change your clothes?"
Lien looked in the direction of the speaker and saw a simple wardrobe placed there. He immediately stepped forward and opened it.
The small wardrobe was all dark and filled with Valencia military uniforms. Lien casually took one and put it on.
Richard handed over a cup of freshly brewed coffee. Looking at the heroic appearance of the man in front of him in military uniform, a smile quietly passed through his eyes. "How does it feel to wear the Valencia military uniform? Does it feel like you have returned to Valencia?"
An illusion from the past?”
Li En took a sip of coffee and sighed, "I didn't expect that I could wear it. This feeling is really amazing."
"I haven't seen you for more than four years, but you haven't changed much. How are things going over there?"
Lean nodded lightly, "Everything is going according to plan."
Richard asked, "Including becoming that man's knight?"
"I guess." Lien took a few more sips of coffee, and the melancholy between his brows deepened. "I heard those people said that you had a disagreement with Prime Minister Karl before you came here?"
Richard shrugged, "It's nothing, just some differences on the strategy of attacking Lanson. But that Solo has been preaching in Karl's ears, asking him to unify the Cattraya continent, and now Karl seems to be possessed.
It seems that the enthusiasm for war is terrifyingly high."
Rean frowned, "Zoro?"
"Yes."
"I remember he was just a small clerk. How could Prime Minister Karl listen to him?"
Richard looked disdainful, "He is now Karl's confidant, and Karl is almost obedient to him. His father's suggestion is to temporarily stop fighting and recuperate. Years of war have made the domestic situation turbulent, taxes have risen, and the people
It's miserable. Now, the anti-war voices have become louder, and the situation in Valencia is also worrying. Our army suffered a lot in the first two defeats against Lanson. After the armistice, he didn't even give him time to rest and adjust.
We, the rabbi who ordered us to attack the occupying country, suddenly asked us to be stationed here and prepare for war at any time. All of this is the man's idea behind the scenes."
"This Zoro is by no means simple. Hasn't my father checked his background and origins?"
Richard shook his head, "His status is not considered prominent, but he is cautious and vicious. He has grown from a small clerk to the current Prime Minister's Secretary, following Karl to attend various occasions and meetings. This
During the past few years of foreign campaigns, he was basically the one making suggestions behind Karl's back. I suspect that he must have an ulterior motive for doing so."
Lean held the coffee cup and tightened his fingers, "Richard, tell father to be careful."
"You don't know, because of the foreign war proposed by Solo, the anti-war voice in the country has also become louder. In some places, anti-war armed forces have even appeared. My father now not only has to worry about foreign war, but also always pays attention to the domestic war.
Anti-war demonstrations and various ambushes of various sizes made us extremely busy."
"Is the domestic situation so complicated now?"
"Yes."
Lean frowned, "Who is the leader of the anti-war faction?"
"I don't know. I heard that it was a militia group that was formed spontaneously. However, those were just minor incidents and could not become a big deal. On your side, it makes me very worried.
"Me?" Lien sneered, "I'm fine now. I just need to continue to stay by Leng Ling's side. It's just that a few guys seem to be very suspicious of my identity."
