Chapter 1005: Changes in the Yeni River (V)
After leaving Enli's camp, Allen walked straight towards the big tent where Ilsa was.
At this moment, a strange man wrapped in a black cloak suddenly walked out of the darkness next to him, walked quickly to Allen's side, and said in an intimate and enthusiastic tone:
"Well done, Alan."
"You made a wise choice, Alan."
This person is Ebel who has been secretly following the army these days and has been monitoring Allen.
Three days ago, after Ebel suddenly approached Allen, Allen experienced a sleepless night.
On the second day, Allen informed Ebel of his choice.
Then, Allen kept looking for the right time to take action.
After a short wait, Allen took a fancy to tonight and this place, and decided to completely rewrite the history of the Britannia Empire tonight, on the banks of the Yeni River.
Allen's reaction to Ebel who suddenly came out and talked to him in a warm tone was very dull.
Allen, who still kept an expressionless face, nodded slightly and agreed with Ebel casually.
And Ebel didn't take Allen's perfunctory treatment to heart, and still said in a very enthusiastic tone:
"Alan, you only sent 7 people to capture that Jacob. Are they enough?"
Just now, Allen divided his cronies into three groups. One group was responsible for capturing Jacob, and the other group was responsible for monitoring Ilsa. Allen personally led the last group of people to persuade Enli to surrender to Breton. The Daniya Empire.
The fewest people sent to capture Jacob were only seven.
After hearing Ebel's question, Allen said in a calm tone:
"Jacob is just an old man in his 60s. To capture an old man and use seven heavy infantrymen to capture him is already a compliment to him."
"Ha~" Ebel said in a long tone and chuckled meaningfully, "Alan, although Jacob is indeed an old man in his 60s now, even though Jacob is old, you should not underestimate him. ah."
“Jacob was a rare man who was both civil and military.
"
"When I was 17 years old, I won the bloody and fierce martial arts competition with just one sword, and gained the reputation of 'Sword Master'."
"Although I haven't held a sword for many years, I don't think that Jacob will forget the skill of wielding a sword..."
Before Ebel finished speaking, Allen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer with a hint of disdain.
"Sword Master...so what?"
"That Jacob was just a sword master when he was young."
"Don't you look at how old that Jacob is this year?"
"At his age, how much strength does he still have when he was young?"
"Even if he still remembers the skills of wielding a sword, will his current physical strength and his current body and bones be enough to support him in wielding a sword to kill people?"
"..." Ebel nodded after being silent for a while, "That's true, but... forget it, just do whatever you plan to do. Anyway, as long as you can capture Brittany alive, The emperor of the Britannia Empire is fine. Whether or not the Prime Minister of the Britannia Empire can be captured alive is irrelevant."
…
…
at the same time--
In Jacob's tent.
"Mr. Jacob, please just surrender. As long as you listen to us, we won't do anything to you."
The seven armored warriors who were tasked with the arduous mission of capturing Jacob alive, after rushing into Jacob's camp, said this directly to Jacob who was reading a book.
Jacob was reading a book at this time.
After these seven armored warriors suddenly rushed into his camp, even Jacob, who had amazing determination, couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.
When Jacob finally reacted, it was already too late.
As soon as Jacob stretched out his hand to the dragon that was placed aside, the seven armored warriors hurriedly took a few steps forward, bringing the sharp heavy sword in their hands closer to Jacob.
Looking at the seven heavy swords close to his neck, Jacob could only softly "tsk" and then raised his hands.
After Jacob raised his hands, two armored warriors came out.
One person is responsible for taking away Jacob's sword.
Another man took out a roll of hemp rope and tied Jacob's hands.
While silently enduring his hands being tied behind his back with hemp ropes, Jacob asked the seven armored warriors:
"Who sent you?"
As soon as Jacob finished speaking, the leader of the seven armored warriors immediately said:
"You don't need to know, just follow us obediently."
"Huh." Jacob sneered, "Even if you don't tell me, I can guess who it is. Is it Allen?"
After the name Allen was spoken from Jacob's mouth, the eyes of the seven armored men changed slightly.
And this subtle change was keenly sensed by Jacob.
"Hmph. It's indeed him."
Jacob actually didn't know who instigated these people to arrest him just now.
The Armored Warriors were a force established and trained by Allen, so Jacob mentioned Allen's name casually, hoping to deceive the seven Armored Warriors.
Unexpectedly, Jacob's fraud was so successful.
The changes in the eyes of these seven armored warriors betrayed them.
After learning that the mastermind behind the scenes was indeed Allen, Jacob then asked:
"Alan, has he rebelled?"
Although Jacob's sentence is in the form of a question, its tone is that of an affirmative sentence.
"I told you everything."
The leader of these seven armored warriors said impatiently:
"You don't need to know!"
"I'm sorry, I seemed to have said something wrong just now." Jacob said in a mocking tone, "I shouldn't have said that Allen rebelled. Allen should have never truly surrendered to our Britannia Empire from the beginning to the end. , He is just doing what a general of the Frank Empire should do."
After saying that, Jacob said to himself in an annoyed tone:
"Damn... If I had known this, when His Majesty decided to let him serve as the leader of the Uriel Knights, I should have opposed it with all my strength..."
"I really underestimated Allen... The person who was able to obtain the position of general of the Frank Empire as a civilian is indeed extraordinary. His series of obedient performances after coming to the Britannia Empire, A lot of people were deceived.”
"Even I fell into the trap. I have been paralyzed by Allen's obedient performance over the years, and I have become lax in monitoring Allen."
"It would be nice if I could keep an eye on Allen more closely..."
"Enough!" The leader of the seven armored warriors scolded Jacob, "This is the first time I know that the Prime Minister of our country is such a long-winded person who talks so much!"
"Our country?" Jacob repeated the soldier's words in a mocking tone, "Do you still regard the Britannia Empire as your own country? Since you know who the person you are arresting now, Then you must know what you are doing now, right?"
"People who are already prepared to rebel against the Britannia Empire still regard the Britannia Empire as their own country?"
"That's enough! Come and follow me!"
Not wanting to talk any more nonsense to Jacob, the armored warriors pushed Jacob out of the tent with rough movements.
"Be gentle. I'm an old man and I can't stand your rough treatment."
…
In fact, from now on, Jacob has been so verbose on purpose.
The reason why James kept going on and on and talked about a lot of things was actually to distract these people.
When his hands were about to be tied behind his back with hemp rope, Jacob secretly took away a knife that was only half a finger long from the table and stuffed it into his sleeve.
After the men tied his hands behind his back with hemp rope, Jacob secretly took out the knife and held it in his hand.
While talking all kinds of nonsense, distract these people's attention.
While secretly using this knife to cut the hemp rope tied to both wrists.
