Chapter 3236 Release From Prison
Xiaozhi said,
“I believe that the three counties will not be like this.
But for the sake of the greater good, and just in case, if I can be given formal management clearance, I can complete the recruitment within a week. "
"Beyond that, I wish I had someone to help me."
"who?"
Mulder asked, but Ernesto, who was sitting nearby, flashed the expressions of the two people.
"Former General Lewan. Without him, a lot of work wouldn't be possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell into a long silence.
after.
But it was Mulder who spoke first,
"Did you know he was a suspect?"
"After all, he is the reinforcement general of the Southern Army, and he has a good reputation in the local area.
Because he will make progress at work very smoothly. Without him, it would be difficult to carry out the work. "
"You put a man who is close to the alien race in the South back in charge of the Southern Army?"
"Yes, no one but him can do it."
Mulder stared at Xiaozhi, then leaned back and clasped his hands.
"Okay, I agree."
On the other side, Ness's expression began to become uncertain.
Mulder seemed to be blaming Xiaozhi, but every word he said was actually mocking Ernesto.
As Lewan's boss.
Of course he knows what kind of person Lewan is, but due to the Mulder family's injunction that Mulder interfere in internal affairs, he can only investigate the evidence that Lewan was framed.
But, unfortunately, the evidence did not investigate everything.
Lewan has already been convicted.
So, now I hear Xiaozhi’s implicit meaning is that if Lewan is not released from prison.
The Southern Army will not do business.
Mulder naturally helps.
Ernesto observed Xiaozhi carefully and felt that he might accidentally allow the southern aliens to directly invade.
What he wants is long-term power and money. Living alone in an empire with civil strife is not a good place for him to make huge profits.
What he needs is a country that is chaotic and corrupt, but still has some time to go before it falls apart, so that he can gain power and money without any worries.
But that didn't mean that he would agree to Xiaozhi's conditions so easily, so the three of them started a heated argument.
After a whole afternoon.
They finally reached an agreement, allowing Xiaozhi to impose forced conscription in the south for three months, and allowing military management of the three towns if necessary.
However, the 30,000 new recruits must be disbanded immediately after the war. During this period, the military pay of the 30,000 new recruits was entirely borne by the Southern Army itself.
Lewan could be released to serve as Pollard's subordinate as a lieutenant.
Why this agreement was so beneficial to the Army of the South.
It's because General Mulder is helping.
After reaching an agreement, Ernesto looked unhappy and left without saying a word.
Mulder, who was worried about the Imperial City, ignored Xiaozhi's arrival and stood up to leave.
In the cell, Lewan was unkempt.
A few flies surrounded him, but he didn't pay attention to them. He just looked ahead dimly. He had been in prison for more than a year.
Although he was mentally prepared, the emperor's choice to believe in Ernesto still made him very sad.
Are you going to spend the rest of your life in this cell? He thought this and suddenly smiled to himself.
Maybe he will be beheaded in a few years.
There were footsteps in the distance, which made his eyes move, but there was no big movement.
Although General Mulder cannot discuss politics, he can still be given some other care, so in the end he did not receive any abuse from the prison guards in prison.
Because the prison foot also wanted to give the general face, he did not suffer any physical harm, but was replaced by verbal sarcasm.
Nothing would hurt his heart more than serving his country to help him go to jail. These prison guards would chat in front of him every time.
He said how suspicious and selfless he was, and then ended up in such a routine situation that he could only sit there and suffer in silence.
When he heard the footsteps, he knew that the prison guards were going to tease him again.
However, when the footsteps came closer, he saw clearly the person in front of him and his eyes widened.
"Xiao Zhi?" Lewan asked in surprise
Looking at Lewan who looked in disbelief, Xiaozhi waved his hand:
"I told you a long time ago that I have news, and you can't come to the imperial capital. If you don't listen..."
"
Well now, I have been in jail for more than a year. "
"How will you be here?"
With a bit of wonder and fear.
Le
Wan asked.
"You know what you're asking, so open the door."
He turned his head and said to the prison team.
The prison team opened the lock of a cell with a flattering smile.
Xiaozhi left and continued to look at the bedside. Lewan behind him frowned and said:
"The smell is really strong. Let me take a bath first."
As soon as he came out of the prison, a large ray of sunshine shone on Lewan's face. Seeing this long-lost sunshine, the latter refused to walk away.
"Don't look away, there are plenty of opportunities behind you."
Xiaozhi said, pulling him to a nearby bathhouse.
After that, he took him to a barber shop, pointed at Lewan and said to the barber:
"Push his hair out for me."
I still like long hair. "
After regaining his mood, Lewan said subconsciously: "Why do you keep your hair so long? Not unlucky enough? I took it all off and shaved off my beard. "
Xiaozhi said forcefully.
Lewan wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Xiaozhi.
"Stop talking nonsense and listen to me. It's not a good thing to shave it all off."
Lewan wanted to say something else, but the master was already very satisfied with pushing all Lewan's hair away.
Then he started to put foam on his face, usually after washing it.
Looking at himself in the scene, Lewan had to admit.
It's really refreshing.
It would be another month before Lewan returned to the Southern Military Headquarters.
Before they reached the fortress, the gates opened.
Pollard rode out on a horse, "General."
He pulled the rope to stop the horse, and said excitedly to Lewan, "Welcome back."
“I am no longer a general, according to the emperor’s orders.
I am your lieutenant now. "
Lewan immediately denied it.
After hearing this, Pollard said with great vicissitudes:
"In my heart, in our hearts, you are still our leader general."
Pollard beat his chest and said solemnly.
"So you want to stay here tonight?"
Xiaozhi complained from the side, "It doesn't matter if you two want to live with me.
Sayu and I definitely want to get stuffed. "
Pollard then remembered that Xiaozhi and Sayu were also there.
He turned to look at Xiaozhi, with an uncontrollable smile on his face, "As expected, you said: "Do it, let the general come back so soon. "
"It's not so much that I did well, it's more that the situation dictated it. It should be that he was lucky."
"We just caught up with the opportunity of the foreign aliens from the West, and the Western Legion invaded."*
