Chapter 292 Banquet, the strong commander Luo Shan
The banquet was held at the residence of the Gray City garrison commander. According to imperial law, the highest garrison officer and the tribune were of the same rank, and both parties had rights and different aspects of management.
The minor commander is mainly responsible for managing the garrison, while the tribune is responsible for politics and people's livelihood. Of course, he also has the responsibility of supervising officers at all levels to see if they have violated the rules and regulations of the empire. But now, in addition to managing the city's people's livelihood, the tribune of Gray City, Auston,
For example, when it comes to building construction, the military and supervisory officers have no rights at all, and their immediate superior officer is a member of the Shaoling family, which is very embarrassing.
It's a miracle that Auston can persist for such a long time without being replaced. As Auston's in-depth investigation of Shaoling, he has evidence of his crime, which leads to the fact that once Auston is removed, Xiao Ling will be replaced.
Your life may not be saved.
Although the empire absolutely does not allow any unknown harm except for factors such as law and war, this is just talk. Don't take it seriously. Once an officer is involved in the interests of some high-ranking officials, it is common for them to be killed inexplicably.
.
And it was only when he got on the carriage that he realized that the tribune was not invited to Shaoling's banquet at all. He just went there on his own, just to increase his presence.
However, even without an invitation, the guards at Shaoling's residence did not dare to keep the tribune out. In fact, even on the surface, Shaoling and Auston were both amiable, and they would never dare to conspire or anything like that.
Surface.
Qin Shou looked at Shaoling's magnificent palace and stayed for a long time. The pure white jade building was carved with various beautiful patterns. He never thought that a small Shaoling could have such good conditions.
, the outside of the palace was already covered with a red carpet, and the officers and dignitaries from Gray City stepped on the red carpet to enter one after another. Of course, most of them came on military horses, and they did not have the conditions to have four horses like the tribune.
Parallel to the specifications of a luxury carriage.
The guards were left outside, and it was reasonable not to let them in. However, Adjutant Cam and himself, as servants of the empire, were qualified to enter, so they could still stride in shamelessly even without an invitation.
The four guard officers who were conducting the interrogation asked Qin Shou and Kam to hand over their weapons. Haha... hand over their weapons? Is this possible?
Cam was very obedient and handed over the sword. He was just an adjutant and had to follow the rules, and he handed it over at Auston's signal. But Qin said, "I'm sorry, according to the laws of the empire, as a
The captain of the tribune's guard is qualified to carry a sword no matter what the situation is." Qin Shou ignored the others and shouted coldly, pushing away and going in.
These four are all Shaoling's adjutants. Shaoling clearly stipulates that anyone must disarm before entering. This is not only for personal safety, but also to show Shaoling's absolute authority.
When the four of them stopped this guard captain, they said, "Guard captain? Om!" The four of them thought of something, and their faces were full of panic, as if they were scared when they met the god of death.
.
Haha, even the captain of Olan Mountain thinks that they are nothing but idiots? Who dares to hold a gun against a madman?
The tribune led the tribune with his ordnance and swaggered in, which made Auston feel proud, especially when he saw the surprised expressions on the other officers' faces.
The banquet was held in the hall on the first floor of the Shaoling Palace. In this 400-square-meter hall, the floor and walls were covered with natural golden stone tiles, and were inlaid with white gemstones that emitted a warm light. It was said to be magnificent.
That's all, but Qin Shou was not interested in the luxurious hall. His eyes were fixed on the water-spirited maid in a tube top dress. Of course, he paid more attention to the various colorful items on the table.
Food is served.
Now the tribune and his adjutant Cam merged into a large group of officers, and took the initiative to greet each of the surprised officers.
Qin Shou also took a casual look. There were more than a hundred officers in the hall, more than 70% of them were junior servants, and more than 20% were middle servants. The rest were considered to be the most prestigious senior officers in Gray City.
There is no such thing as an aide officer, no matter how high the rank is.
So Qin Shou didn't think about anything else. He was just thinking about how to eat more. Fortunately, Naoshen gave the detailed name and introduction of each delicacy, which saved him the embarrassment of not recognizing it after eating it.
Qin Shou was despised by many officers for his starving appearance, but later when he saw the tribune sitting with this servant with a smile, and deliberately giving the captain of his guard a drink, he kept saying "I
How did the captain of the guard know that this guy was the guy who turned Olanshan into his grandson.
For a moment, no one dared to look down upon him, and they thought this person was quite interesting.
As the banquet progressed, most of the available officers from Gray City arrived, but those who did not come, like Ohm, were unsociable officers who did not have a foothold.
The top officer of the Shaoling garrison, who made him curious, also slowly walked down the more than 30 red carpet stairs from the second floor.
Not to mention how he looks, he wears three layers of clothes, a robe and a coat, which can be said to be dressed up for traveling. He also wears a white wig rolled into a bounce, making him look like a nobleman.
His appearance also caused all the talking and laughing legions to turn their attention and salute respectfully as if accepting a parade. Qin Shou noticed the silver six-pointed star on the latter's collar badge, which should represent the rank of Major Commander.
.And I also noticed that although this guy had a glorious face and a very friendly look, his eyes were as fierce as poisonous snakes.
This guy is definitely a ruthless man who eats people without spitting out their bones. The brain message also gives information that this "Luoshan" young commander has 13 points of combat power, and besides being the highest officer of the Gray City garrison, he also served as
He was the squadron leader of the Wild Wolf Legion of the Aragon Empire.
In my mind, I specially introduced that the Wild Wolf Legion is one of the two elite legions of Aragon. The whole legion is composed of 10,000 elite soldiers, and the legion commander is a noble.
"Zhongjue?" Qin Shou murmured in confusion. This military rank must be higher than that of Shaoling. According to his own guess, this level of military rank should be of the same nature as lieutenant general.
While Qin Shou was musing, Luo Shan Shaoling, who was slowly walking down the steps over there, also glanced at Auston who was still sitting in his seat, and Bar Niao Bubu who was also sitting on the side with his lips curled up.
Qin Shou was a fool. As for Cam standing behind him, he was ignored.
Seeing Auston appear here, Luo Shan was not too surprised, nor did he look at Auston much. Although the tribune had some means, the latter's combat power was there, and it was only a matter of time before he could be captured.
What really worried him was where Auston found such a guard captain.
Especially after seeing the latter's military status information, the military rank was promoted almost every few days. Even Luo Shanzi's rank in the Wild Wolf Legion was not promoted as fast as him.
Moreover, he had real military merits and did not operate a black box. This 'Om' did not have any background background, so this is why Auston trusted him so much.
"We are going to fight back..." Luo Shan secretly murmured in his heart. Alston had been holding back for so long, and now he suddenly exploded. He felt that he was in danger and wanted to fight for his life.
I wasn't surprised at all. A dog would jump over the wall when it got angry, not to mention that Auston was a ferocious wolf.
Although he thought so in his heart, he should still be kind no matter how he looked. His originally stern face suddenly changed and he showed the kindest smile to Tribune Oston, and of course he gave Qin Shou a meaningful look.
How could such a shrewd person as Qin Shou not know what that look meant? He was greeting him like a friend. What it meant was, little guy, I am very optimistic about you...
Auston also noticed something. If Orm was bribed at this time, then he would be finished.
But Qin Shou patted Ouston's hand, and the latter felt at ease. Aum had a bottom line when doing things, especially in the officialdom, and he would change his position at will because of interests. Such people would not go far.
, it’s useless even if he has fighting ability.
During the banquet, except for the normal greetings, no one came to talk to Auston. By the time Qin Shou had many officers coming to talk to him, they all acted as enthusiastic as if they were old friends they hadn't seen for many years.
Especially Olan Shan, this guy was like a real brother to me, calling him Om brothers one after another, and even pulled him down in the corner to talk closely.
Sure enough, Olan Mountain, on behalf of Young Commander Luo Shan, came to win over him and directly negotiated terms with him. If he was willing to change his stance and follow Luo Shan, his military rank would be immediately promoted to lieutenant, and he would immediately become the first squadron of Gray City.
Squadron leader, this is a very valuable military position.
It's a pity that he refused without thinking, and he had a strict attitude and was not afraid of offending the other party. Then Olanshan's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. Although he didn't say anything to embarrass himself, his face suddenly turned cold.
He stepped aside by himself, and until the end of the banquet, no one came up to talk to him about brotherhood or anything like that.
As for Auston, he was ignored by all the officers. When he returned to the banquet, the latter's face was somber and ugly.
Through this banquet, Auston finally understood that Shaoling had completely controlled the entire Gray City. He only had Cam, Orm and thirty guards on his side.
Some evidence that can bring down Luoshan Shaoling is that the people above him will abandon him like an abandoned son without hesitation.
Before the banquet was over, Auston left with a calm face. Before leaving, Shaoling Luo Shan deliberately came over and gave Auston a cold shoulder. With that mocking look on his face, even Qin Shou wanted to punch him.
Although Auston looked very ugly, he did not lose control of his emotions. The latter had been a tribune for so long, so he still had this psychological quality.
Back in the carriage, Auston looked very sad. If he wanted to blame him, he could only blame himself for his lack of support and strength. He almost regretted being a tribune. How about being a squadron captain more safely?
But what Auston doesn't know is that being a squadron leader is even more difficult, as he has to deal with politicians and fight for his life on the battlefield. Not only does he sometimes win battles, but his achievements are taken away by his superiors, and he has to swallow the defeat himself.
