According to the soldier, Xuan Jie said in the conversation that the war was over and he wanted to return to Winter City first.
Due to Xuan Jie's unswerving spirit when he came, the officers in the defense line would not think that he was going to escape, and immediately went to the first battlefield to inquire about the news.
Commander-in-chief Tianxiong, who learned about this, also had questions. It was obviously not like a joke, but why did he be sure that the devil would retreat?
Two days later...
Just as everyone was confused and confused, the patrol soldiers returned, the demon army retreated collectively and moved in a hurry, and many things were not packed up and taken away.
Not only the Chris Mountains, but also the battle on the United Army came to an end, and the enemy seemed to have suddenly received orders and stopped attacking.
"Sister Mu Yu, are you talking about it true? The battle between Sister Mu Xue also stopped!"
"Well," Mu Yu touched Miaomiao's head and explained with a chuckling: "My sister just wrote that saltpeter powder was very useful. Not long after, the demons collectively canceled the attack and retreated to the safe territory before establishing a camp."
No one would think that the demon was knocked back by saltpeter powder. Although this thing is useful, it is very easy to defend against it.
What Tianxiong is most curious about now is Xuan Jie. What method did he use to make the demons retreat collectively.
It’s a pity that I have never heard of him since the last time I parted.
"Tomorrow is the day for the aid army to go back. Thank you very much for sending the generals they thought were such an outstanding one."
Tianxiong's voice was a little disappointed. It was suspected that Xuan Jie's words at the beginning, so it had never officially thanked him.
"It's okay, Grandpa Tianxiong," Miaomiao shook its arms, and the smile on her face was particularly sweet.
"When we go back, I'll go to Dongcheng with Sister Mu Yu to thank that guy in person. After all, he saved his sister's life... Anyway, that guy can't disappear out of thin air."
When Mu Yu heard this, the original smile on her face quickly dissipated and then became sad.
The inspector general saved me from the orphan curse, but I even had to find out his name.
In his words, this is a joke.
I looked up at the sky. Without the miasma brought by the demons, I could already see the bright sunshine in the sky.
At this moment, Mu Yu looked far and wide for Xuan Jie at that time, and also found his own answer.
After inquiring, I found that he had not even assigned a map of his own combat in battle, and he was fighting entirely on his own will. How valuable it is.
The next day, the so-called reinforcements were preparing to return and were recalled to Winter City.
Commander-in-chief Tianxiong personally sent them, and Bo Gu talked and laughed, and really regarded himself as a hero this time.
"Lord Tianxiong is so polite. With our relationship, it is necessary to come to provide assistance."
Miaomiao frowned, turned her head and hugged her chest and complained: "This guy has never participated in the battle, right? He came so much later than Inspector Xuanjie. How could he be so embarrassed to say this?"
Mu Yu also agreed with this, but some things were destined to be difficult to expose. She just wanted to see Xuan Jie and thank him in person as soon as possible.
However, Commander-in-Chief Tianxiong still expressed his ground and awarded the medals to the more than 200 surviving people a medal symbolizing the Black Bear Mountain Warriors.
As for the others, no prizes of any kind were awarded, after all, they just followed them all the way.
When the support troops returned to the city in a mighty manner, Xuan Jie had already put his clothes and resignation report on Kelly's desk the night before.
This was originally done just to make time more reasonable and not to create unnecessary doubts.
Unfortunately, Kelly did not return to the office the next day. Since seeing the troops returning almost without any injuries and solving the Chris Mountains, he has been drinking with other officials in the tavern.
This leads to the fact that what should have been made public has not been known on the day the troops returned.
At noon, people spontaneously came to greet each other on both sides of the city gate, which indirectly made the scenery of Winter City beautiful.
If they were told that the commander they were shouting had not given any combat power at all, would they feel disgusted?
"I am really worthy of being an outstanding young man from the Lien family! Lord Bo Gu is so strong, his command ability can actually reach this level!"
"Yes, there are almost no one who can get benefits from the demon's hands. A mercenary friend told me that once dozens of them were ambushing a demon and almost died."
"Don't just talk about the commander, that Qili deputy commander is also very strong. I don't know how terrifying it is for a woman to achieve such results!"
For those shouting, Qili doesn't enjoy it like Bogu.
There is still the honor of a soldier in her heart, which is not something that Bo Gu can compare with.
"I said Qili, it's not good for you to be so frowning. That guy said he didn't want military merits, so I'd better forget him a lot. This is the end of kindness."
Bo Gu rode leisurely on the horse, his words were very frivolous.
Humph, what a military merit!
It’s all the achievements made by others. What 60% of your face is coming? Are you really not afraid of choking yourself to death?
Even though he was very dissatisfied, Qili still didn't show it.
"It's nothing, I just feel sorry for those dead brothers, they are all good."
"Yes," Pogu replied, "They all died for Her Majesty the Queen."
Qili was not replying. I don’t know when it started, but she already hated this immediate boss in her heart.
Strange... Why do I want to see the Inspector General? He is obviously a weird person.
The two of them rode their horses and led their troops to the military camp, waiting for the summons of the God of Ice Soul the next day.
The first thing they have to face is the elders in their respective families and the leader of the Pioneer Group Kelly.
"Congratulations to Commander Bo Gu and Vice Commander Qili, tomorrow will be the summons of the Queen, but... I still have a small question before that," he took out a piece of paper, and the items listed briefly listed were in the battle.
merits.
"Everyone knows the truth in the Winter City. I want to ask... Commander Bo Gu, when will he have the courage to lead his troops deep into the enemy's backbone and eliminate all the demon army with fewer enemies?"
Seeing that Kelly came to question Bo Gu, Qili didn't care too much. What kind of strength he has is well-known to everyone.
If it were in the past, the deputy commander would definitely have to be with the commander, but today...
Qili, who was walking by the handrail, raised her head, her eyes full of a shadow wearing a black cloak but a white mask.
The wind blew across her cheeks, and an indescribable emotion arose.
Why didn't he come out to see us? Could it be...what happened? Or...hey he hates me?
Behind him, Kelly was still confronting Poguard.
As for the members of those big families, they were all blocked by the Pioneer Group, otherwise things would not go smoothly if they involved the powerful.
"I don't know what Captain Kelly is saying. Isn't it normal for an officer to lead the way? If you have any questions, you can go to the inspector general you assigned to verify, but if he has any objections to me, he will not tell the truth."
"This is the second thing I want to say," Kelly stared at Bo Gu with a slightly anxious tone, "Why has Deputy Commander Xuan Jie not come back yet? What did you do to him?
”
What!?
"Xuan Jie didn't... cough cough." Qili walked over urgently, and after finding that her words and deeds were wrong, she coughed twice.
"Captain Kelly means that Chief Inspector has not come back yet? But he obviously set off more than a day ahead of time!"
Set off a day early?
It was this sentence that made the scheming Kelly believe in his inner thoughts more and more.
Qili is Mia's niece, so she is not hostile to the Pioneer Group, and her anxious look doesn't look like a disguise.
Then...If something really happens, it can only be the action of the Li En family!
Before Kelly could come out of his thoughts, a smile came from the flower bed.
"Oh, Lord Pioneer Army, is this condolences to the heroes... or is it torture?"
The visitor was a smiling man. Judging from his golden hair and figure, he should be from the Lien family.
"General Dean was joking. I was just asking in my routine duties. After all... there are a lot of things on this that are incredible."
As he said that, he walked over and handed the note to the other party.
Before leaving, Kelly did not forget to remind him with a smile: "By the way, don't blame me for not reminding me. Some things that are done too out of order may not be a good thing."
As Kelly left, Mia also brought her relatives to the stunned Qili.
"Lier, it's good to be back safely. Don't worry too much about the rest. Leave it to my aunt to deal with," Mia hugged Qili and comforted her emotions with words.
Dean smiled and waved his hand to greet him, but only welcomed Mia's meaningful words before leaving.
"Everyone says that greed can't be chewed, but the Li En family has a big appetite. Let's wait and see!"
Interests have always been the foundation of alliance. The Li En family wants to monopolize the six successors, so how will the family where Mia and Qili are located agree?
With the Pioneer Kelly, if you can't swallow this mouthful, you may have a big problem.
"cousin..."
Facing the slightly trembling Bogu, Dean kneaded the paper in his hand into a ball and threw it into the flowers.
"Let's go to the banquet first, and see what the family says about the rest, but... do you have no points on your own? You dare to swallow 60%?"
If it is placed on other generals, then even if the Pioneer Group or other families have objections this time, it will not be too serious.
Unfortunately... the officer level this time is well aware of the high-level officials in the eyes of the Winter City.
The Military Affairs Office soon intervened in the investigation and evidence collection, but the Li En family started the action first.
While bribing the investigators, they were asked to collect evidence from the legion that had been cleared with money, so that they could get positive information.
Even Li En, a large military family, knows very well how difficult it is to swallow these six successors.
So during the investigation, he deliberately used tricks to disperse 20% of the incident and distributed it to other forces to quell the incident to a great extent.
