In the early morning of July 17, 204 in the Gregorian calendar of the Black Dragon Empire, in the Marshal's Mansion at Yellowstone Fort, McGarrett, dressed in military uniform, was pacing back and forth, anxiously waiting for his subordinates to come and report back.
Watson has been out for two days and has not returned. During this period, not even a single message has been sent back. It is as if the two of them led the army to flee and rebelled collectively. This made McGarrett upset and vaguely felt that something ominous had happened.
thing.
"Marshal!" The door opened, and Stuart, commander of the 5th Corps, MacArthur, commander of the 8th Corps, Kasper, commander of the 9th Corps, and Sheringham, commander of the 10th Corps, entered together. In addition to Jokoci, commander of the 3rd Corps, and
Besides Watson, the commander of the Fourth Corps, McGarrett was the only general left.
"The four generals came just in time! I happen to have something important to discuss with you all!" McGarrett was uncharacteristically enthusiastic, and his amiable appearance made Stewart, commander of the 5th Corps, MacArthur, commander of the 8th Corps, and MacArthur, commander of the 9th Corps
Captain Casper and Captain Sheringham of the Tenth Corps were greatly surprised and sat down at the invitation with uneasiness.
McGarrett glanced around the four people and said with a slight distress: "The former Japanese commander received a secret message saying that His Majesty the Emperor sent reinforcements to help, so I ordered the commander of the third corps, Jokoci, and the fourth corps.
Mr. Watson went to meet him, but he didn’t expect that the two of them would never return. Two days have passed and there is still no news!”
Stuart, the commander of the 5th Corps, MacArthur, the commander of the 8th Corps, Casper, the commander of the 9th Corps, and Sheringham, the commander of the 10th Corps, looked at each other, and they all remained silent. They had heard more or less some gossip.
Knowing that the general arriving with the reinforcements was Damian Hesso, and that the Tracy family was now at odds with the minister of the Central Government, McGarrett sent two elite troops to greet him and put an end to the situation.
It’s clear that the weasel is paying New Year greetings to the rooster—an unkind act!
McGarrett also seemed to see the inner thoughts of the four generals in front of him. He pretended to express his attitude selflessly and said solemnly and solemnly: "Now that the Orc army is pressing on the border, every imperial soldier needs to contribute his or her own strength and unite as one."
We are jointly defending against the enemy, so I will definitely not ignore the overall situation and do anything harmful to my colleagues. The dispatch of the Third Corps and the Fourth Corps to respond is purely a precautionary act of goodwill. Please also ask everyone
General, please understand my good intentions and don’t misunderstand my concern for Lord Heisuo!"
"Of course! Of course!" The four corps commanders smiled one after another and echoed in unison pretending to understand. Only Kasper, the commander of the 9th corps, shook his head secretly and kept cursing McGarrett's hypocrisy and duplicity in his heart.
McGarrett didn't know the true thoughts of the four generals in front of him. When he saw everyone talking, he quickly asked while the iron was hot: "Have there been any changes in the Orc Corps in recent days? Will they send troops to sneak attack the Third Corps that left Yellowstone Fort?"
And the Fourth Corps?”
The commander of the Eighth Corps, MacArthur, coughed lightly and was the first to answer: "The Orc side has seemed extremely calm recently. Not only did they withdraw their front line for more than twenty miles, but they also withdrew all the wolf cavalry scattered outside. It seems that
We have decided to give up the plan to attack Huangshi Fort! Based on the current situation, the general believes that the third and fourth corps will not be attacked by the enemy!"
McGarrett frowned when he heard this, and asked with even more confusion: "Since it wasn't the orcs who attacked the third and fourth corps, then who else on the border can wipe out the third and fourth corps at once?"
Where are the 20,000 cavalry of the Corps? Generals Jokoč and Watson are both battle-hardened veterans? According to common sense, they will not make any mistakes and will be quietly wiped out by the enemy!"
"Yes!" Sheringham, commander of the Tenth Corps, nodded, smiled and comforted McGarrett and said: "Marshal, please don't worry too much! The strong military power of the two corps plus the reinforcements of Lord Blackso, even if you encounter a beast
The main force of the tribe is also capable of fighting? It will definitely not be annihilated. It will disappear without a trace all of a sudden. So the general thinks that they should be delayed by other things? Maybe they can arrive at the city in half a day? Arrival
Our Fort Yellowstone.”
"I hope so!" McGarrett gave a wry smile, turned to Stuart, commander of the 5th Corps, and Kasper, commander of the 9th Corps, and said, "What do you two think? Can you help me relieve my worries?"
Stuart, the commander of the Fifth Corps, blinked his eyes, secretly glanced at Kasper, the commander of the Ninth Corps, and replied: "The general also agrees with the opinions of Generals MacArthur and Sheringham. The distance between the Orc army
We are tens of miles away? It is impossible to break through the defense line and run to our rear in a short time? Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the third and fourth corps to encounter an enemy attack, let alone all be defeated by the enemy without pulling any one.
The army has been wiped out! I hope the marshal will stop worrying about others and scare himself!"
McGarrett calmed down a little after listening to the analysis of several generals. He looked at Kasper, the commander of the Ninth Corps who had not yet spoken, and asked without relaxing: "I heard that the general has a personal relationship with Lord Hesso.
"Excuse me, why do you think the reinforcements he brought and the relief troops I sent have not returned yet?"
Kasper, the commander of the Ninth Corps, was shocked when he heard this. The relationship between him and Hesso is an absolute secret. He has not dared to reveal a word to outsiders until now. But where did McGarrett know about it now?
?Suddenly started to ask this kind of question to himself? With this kind of doubt and strong uneasiness, Kasper's knees weakened, he knelt down on the spot, and said nervously: "Marshal, please don't listen to the rumors.
The general has never had a close relationship with Master Heisuo. At most, he can only be regarded as his former boss! The general is dedicated to serving the country and only wants to do his part for the marshal and the people. He never dares to have any relationship with Master Heisuo.
Too much contact!”
McGarrett smiled faintly and continued without comment: "General, please rise! I have no doubts about the general's patriotism! I just asked this question - I just wanted to use the general's understanding of Lord Heisuo to make a guess.
It’s just the whereabouts of the Third and Fourth Corps! General, please don’t be nervous about this and get up and speak quickly!”
Kasper, the commander of the Ninth Corps, with his heart beating like thunder and sweating coldly, slowly sat back on his seat. As the saying goes, those with ghosts in their hearts are the most easily frightened, not to mention those who had previously leaked secrets and secretly reported information to Black Solo.
