Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 313 Promise
"Back, click, click!"

Meisha's military boots made a rhythmic sound, and every step she took was completely consistent. This kind of military quality was obviously not deliberately maintained, but more like a deep-rooted instinct.

At this time, the courtyard of the military area is very quiet, because the residents are all senior officers and their families, and the quality is still very high. Even after dinner, they will not be like ordinary people, sitting in groups eating watermelon and bragging under the big tree. .

After walking for about 10 minutes, General Gleason's residence still hadn't arrived. Xia Feng roughly estimated that the area of ​​this military area should be more than twice the size of the Jin'an villa area in Happy City.

Following Mei Sha on the road without talking, the atmosphere was rather dull.

Xia Feng coughed lightly, and tentatively asked Meisha who was leading the way.

"That. Miss Mesa."

"Please don't call me Miss. I am the general's deputy, and my rank is major general. You can also call me by my name directly."

Xia Feng was a little embarrassed to be interrupted.

"Um, alright, Chief Mesha, how long will we have to go?"

The title of officer is generally used by subordinates to address their superiors. Meisha doesn't know if Xia Feng really doesn't know or is deliberately calling her that to tease her, but she obviously doesn't want to delve into a title.

"It's almost here, let's go for about 5 minutes. Sorry, the military area is closed to vehicles at night, unless there is an emergency mission, no one is exempt."

Xia Feng nodded and continued to ask.

"Mr. Meisha, how many officers live in this military area?"

"It's classified."

"How many guards are there in total?"

"It's classified."

Xia Feng was just chatting casually when he had nothing to say, but he didn't expect his chat to fail so badly this day.

"Mr. Meisha, what are you usually in charge of?"

Seeing that Meisha was silent, Xia Feng asked tentatively.

"Is this also a secret?"

"It's confidential."

"puff!"

Ah Guang in the back almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Xia Feng quickened his pace, walked to the side by side with Meisha, and asked angrily with his head sideways.

"Mr. Meisha, do you have a boyfriend? Wait, don't tell me this is also a secret."

Meisha's expression remained unchanged, and a quiet voice came out of her mouth.

"It's not classified, but I refuse to answer the pointless question."

"Hey, why is it meaningless, wait, don't go so fast."

5 minute later.

A fortified two-story building appeared in front.

Different from the houses of other military families, there were six soldiers on guard standing in front of the courtyard at this time. In addition, there were two people wearing different styles of military uniforms waiting outside the door. It seemed that they were someone's accompanying guards.

When Meisha walked to the door, the guards on guard immediately gave a military salute, and afterward, Xia Feng and the others were led straight into the living room on the first floor.

After entering the second-floor building, Xia Feng realized that it was more like an office building than a residence.

There is no decoration in the living room on the first floor, except for the neat black leather sofa, there are some simple tables and chairs, and the four big characters hanging on the front wall, [Red and Loyal].

In addition to the guard at the gate, there are two guards with sabers in the living room at this time. From the eyes of these two, it can be seen that they are real masters.

Meisha stepped forward and had a whispered conversation with one of the guards, and then returned to Xia Feng and his party.

"The general is receiving the chief of the Military Commission from the capital, please sit here and wait for a while."

Xia Feng asked with some concern.

"Sir from the capital? It's so far away, what's important, can't you make a phone call or write a letter or something?"

"It's none of your business."

After saying that, Meisha walked up to the second floor alone.

Ah Guang next to him sat down and tugged at the corner of Xia Feng's clothes, and said something in a low voice with a cheap smile.

"Brother Feng, stop talking awkwardly, you might not be able to handle this female major general."

"Fuck off."

In fact, it’s really not that Xia Feng has nothing to say. The capital of Victoria is Londinium, and here is the southern border. He really can’t figure out what military orders need people from the Imperial Military Commission to come here to convey. If it’s really important If it cannot be conveyed by phone or letter, it must be that Gleason went to Londinium to take orders in person.

Of course, it might be that he was thinking too much. Although it was a little unreasonable, maybe this was the rule of the Victorian military.

But for some reason, this seemingly insignificant incident reminded Xia Feng of the political news that he saw in the Victorian People's Weekly yesterday.

After sitting in the living room on the first floor for more than 20 minutes, Major General Meisha finally stepped on her military boots and came down from the second floor.

Walking to the sofa, Mei Sha said to Xia Feng.

"If the three of you want to meet the general, then your friend's weapon needs to be kept by me temporarily. No one can bring a weapon to meet the general. This is the rule."

Xia Feng stood up.

"No, I can go up alone, and the two of them are waiting for me here."

"Okay, come with me."

Just as Xia Feng followed Meisha up the stairs, a middle-aged man happened to come down in front of him.

This man was wearing a military uniform different from that of the frontier guards. He was about 40 years old. At this time, his face was a little gloomy, and he was obviously in a very unhappy mood. The moment Xia Feng passed him by, he clearly noticed a faint murderous.

Xia Feng stopped on the stairs, and when he turned around, the man had already left the living room.

"what happened?"

Xia Feng turned around and asked Meisha.

"Who was that officer just now?"

"He is from the Military Commission from the capital, you don't have to worry about it, it has nothing to do with you."

"Oh."

Xia Feng thoughtfully followed Mei Sha to the second floor.

Going up to the second floor, there is a corridor in front of you. This kind of interior layout is still rare, which makes Xia Feng feel that this place is more like an office building than a residence.

There were also two guards standing outside the door of the room at the end. Although this was not a barracks, General Gleason's residence was still fortified.

Walking to the door, Mei Sha nodded slightly to the two guards guarding the door, and then looked at Xia Feng.

"Go in, the general is waiting for you inside."

"Ok."

Taking a deep breath, Xia Feng pushed open the door and walked in.

Putting aside those irrelevant suspicions in his mind, Xia Feng will explain clearly and rigorously the reason for his coming to General Gleason next, and he must win Gleason's trust.

This room continued the simple style of the living room. General Gleason was sitting behind a desk and was gently pinching the acupuncture points between his eyes with his fingers.

Hearing footsteps, he opened his eyes. Although he looked a little tired, his eyes were still sharp.

"Xia Feng, you're here, I'm sorry I'm a little busy, I didn't go to greet you in person, and I kept you waiting for so long."

"It doesn't matter, your military affairs are still important."

General Gleason gestured to a chair at his desk.

"Please sit down, you saved my life, don't be too cautious, by the way, you said on the phone yesterday that you need to ask me for help, what's the matter?"

After Xia Feng sat down, he calmly sorted out his words.

"General, you may be a little surprised by my next request, so I think it is necessary for me to explain in advance that this is not a hasty decision, but a plan made after careful consideration."

"Oh? What plan?"

There was no trace of worry or timidity in Xia Feng's eyes.

"Next, I will fully explain this plan to you, and solemnly state to you that the existence of Black Feather will not threaten the existing rule of the Victorian royal family."
