I am Honkai!

Since it was fighting within the empire, they could eat directly in the southern provinces, so the relevant logistical preparations were relatively quick.In a very short period of time, the army will be able to complete the preparations, and the army can be deployed.

Three days later, under the watchful eyes of civil and military officials headed by Minister Ornest and General Bude, Selene led her Eighth Army of the Praetorian Guards, and more than 5 people went south to suppress the alien rebellion in the southwest. .

As for the newly acquired Ninth Army Corps of the Imperial Guard, they will stay at the camp in the Lake District, taking over from the Eighth Army Corps to be responsible for the repair and widening of the main road in the south of the imperial capital, as well as related security work.

...

Selene led the army after nearly three months of trekking, and finally arrived at the southern border province of the empire.

Outside the provincial capital, Patripol, under the arrangement of the provincial governor, the province's powerful and powerful people stood around the city gate, while on both sides of the main road in the city stood many mobilized people, ready to welcome Seiler Nirvana and her Eighth Legion.

Soon, with the continuous smoke and dust rising in the distance, the golden eagle flag of the eighth regiment of the Imperial Guards flying high immediately caught the eyes of everyone in Patripole City.

After seeing Selene, who took the lead and was surrounded by countless soldiers, wearing silver-white armor, the governor of the province immediately greeted him and said flatteringly: "Haha, the province of Patripol welcomes General Selene." Come, Your Excellency General, you have worked hard."

"We have already prepared a sumptuous dinner for your army. Please, Your Excellency the General and the school lieutenants, move to the Governor's Mansion, and the relevant banquets are ready."

Afterwards, most of the troops were stationed in the legion camp outside the city, and a small part followed Selene and the other officers to the governor's mansion.

The governor of Patripole Province and the local tyrants held a very luxurious welcome banquet for Selene and his accompanying officers.

"His Excellency has received an order from the imperial capital. Regarding the collection of materials needed for the Southern Expedition, your Excellency, General, feel free to come to find Hilary." At the banquet, the local governor followed Selene respectfully.

From time to time, nobles and wealthy people will come to talk to Selene, hoping to build a relationship with her. After all, Selene is now the second powerful general of the Imperial Guard, and she is still an official of the capital. The future is limitless!

Selene couldn't help scolding her mother in her heart when she dealt with the courtesies of all kinds of people gracefully. This trip was more tiring than a fight, so she would have called Sebas if she knew it earlier.

Looking at the magnificent decoration of the house and the room full of dignitaries, Selene thought to herself: "It seems that the corruption of the empire is no longer limited to the imperial capital, and even the most border provinces have not been spared."

It's really embarrassing, the rich and powerful are luxurious and corrupt, while the common people at the bottom are struggling hard on the line of food and clothing. These powerful and powerful people really deserve... Uh, I seem to be the most powerful and powerful person in this banquet... That's okay.

Play on!Keep dancing!

Anyway, I am not in power now, and this empire is not mine for the time being, and the decline of the empire is also good for me, so why should I care?

Chapter 120 Seven Collusion with the Rebel Army?

Bang!

Just when the atmosphere of the banquet was about to reach its peak, a group of capable soldiers suddenly broke through the door of the banquet and broke in.

The Governor of Patripole Province looked at the group of soldiers who filed in, and asked Selene with a lowered eyebrow, not daring to stab him in the slightest, "General Selene? This...you are Do you have any orders?"

Selene didn't answer, and saw that the soldiers who entered afterward were dragging several scarred boys and girls in waiter's clothes.

After the prisoner put it on, the team leader half-kneeled in front of Selene, and handed over a black document bag, "General, we have found out."

"Well, fortunately." After taking the file bag and taking out a few related documents, Selene couldn't help laughing after seeing them in her eyes, "Interesting, Your Excellency the Governor."

"General, what is this?"

Although the governor of the province at this time didn't know what happened, he suddenly had an ominous premonition at this moment.

"Look for yourself." Saying that, Selene handed over the document bag in her hand.

"Interesting, Your Excellency Governor, it seems that not everyone in the Governor's Mansion is as loyal to the empire as you are."

"This...how could this be so, how dare they!!!"

It came into my eyes: reselling arms, shoddy, colluding with the rebel army, spying on the military situation of the empire... I am afraid that he has ten heads that are not enough to chop off. The body of the Governor of Tripole Province couldn't help shaking.

A moment later, as if thinking of something, the Governor of Patripole Province knelt down on the ground with a thud, and said with a panicked expression: "General, I don't know about this... humble position."

"I also know that you are innocent, otherwise would you still have your life to intercede in front of me?"

According to the information provided by the imperial assassination forces, the governor of Patripole Province only took office in recent years. How can I say it? It's no good, the entire Governor's Mansion has basically been infiltrated into a sieve by the rebels.

After finishing speaking, Selene looked at the panic-stricken nobles at the banquet, and waved her hand, "Arrest!"

"Yes!"

Before the guards under Selene could leave, at the banquet, a middle-aged nobleman jumped out and shouted sharply: "Selene! Don't go too far, this is Patripole A province, not an imperial capital, calling you a general is already giving you face, don't give it shame!"

"I'm a hereditary nobleman of the empire! I'm a member of Minister Jolly's faction. Do you think your official position will be lost!"

Hearing the fat man's yelling, Selene gave him a slightly surprised look, do you only have access to the Internet from a village?Do you think that Jolly can suppress her?And with Qiao Li's humble and loyal appearance, how could there be a subordinate like you.

But it's right to think about it, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.

"Presumptuous! Who are you! How dare you speak to the general like that!" Before Selene could speak, the group of officers behind her was already enraged. This is the truth of "the master humiliates the minister and dies" in ancient and modern times.

"Forget it, it's just a clown, I don't have the same knowledge as him... Pull him out and kill him everywhere!" Selene just smiled slightly at this, as if crushing a grasshopper, "The rest, Arrest people according to the list, regardless of whether they are dead or alive."

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, the guard soldiers who surrounded the entire governor's mansion rushed into the banquet with weapons.In an instant, the peaceful banquet was filled with cups and friends just now, and was replaced by cries, begging for mercy, and fighting.

"what--!"

"Damn! How dare she!"

"Forgive me."

"Fight them!"

...

"Everyone get down! Otherwise, no one will live!"

Under Selene's order, the officers of the Eighth Army rushed out behind them. With their participation, there is no doubt that within a very short period of time, all identified collaborators have been arrested, except for a few An unlucky guy who was killed because of excessive resistance.

By the time the arresting work was over, almost one-third of the people in the entire banquet hall had been reduced. For the rest of the people, although Selene did not hurt them, in their eyes, what Selene saw was only deep sadness. fear.

At this time, the smell in the banquet hall was not pleasant. The mixed smell of various dishes, the pungent smell of blood, and even the foul smell of urine, all mixed together, could be described as quite superior.

Selene frowned and covered her mouth and nose with her hands, and asked people to open the doors and windows of the hall, and then looked at the governor of Patripole Province who had fallen into a daze.

"Immediately send people to seal off the whole city and confiscate the title deeds and properties of all the arrested persons. Specifically, you are the governor of the province, so you should know how to deal with it."

"Yes!" Hearing Selene's words, the Governor of Patripole Province realized it and responded quickly.

Afterwards, Selene didn't care about their reaction, took her legion and left the governor's mansion.

As for the rest of the soft bones at the banquet, Selene didn't bother to care about it for the time being, and she didn't find you in the list of collaborators, so let you continue to live.

The moon is dark and the wind is high at night, when murderers and arsonists.

At this moment, it was already late at night, and under the dim sky, countless guards wearing heavy armor quickly interspersed among the various markets in Patripole City under the faint light of fire, bringing a bloody storm.

Standing on the top of the city, Selene looked at the Imperial Guard's skillful tactical coordination and killing techniques, and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that her high-cost training was quite effective.

"There was such a big commotion just now, did the ambush catch their tongue?"

"According to the report of the team ambushing in the west gate, they did catch a few people who were acting strangely, but there was no result of the interrogation... Well, yes, it seems that Chief Esdes has already passed." Standing in Selene The officer on the side replied.

The corner of Selene's mouth curled up, and she said with a smile: "Oh, yes, it seems that the people caught at the banquet were only a few minor characters, no need for interrogation, they are just cannon fodder to attract attention, and we will be beheaded together tomorrow."

"By the way... take me to see those tongues."

"Yes!"

......

Outside the city of Patripol, in an open space outside a camp, there were four rebel soldiers tied to wooden stakes, a man in his prime, a girl, an old man, and a thin girl, who happened to be men, women, old and weak , it seems that the rebels still know how to confuse the public.

At this time, they were covered with whip marks, and the short brown clothes on their bodies were also torn from the whipping.

"Should I say it or not?!" an officer said viciously, holding a long whip.

"Bah! The lackeys of the empire!" The captured rebels obviously still had an unruly spirit, and the oldest old man spit out a mouthful of bloody sputum. He didn't care about the scars on his body, and even provocatively said.

On the side, the blue-haired and blue-eyed Estes shook his head boredly, yawned and said, "Let me do it, your interrogation method is really inferior. I was better than you when I was nine years old." .”

Chapter 120 Eight "Fishing"

"...Okay, you come." The interrogating officer saw that Esdeth was coming to take over, so he pushed the boat along. After all, he was from the Field Army, and he was really not good at interrogation. Apart from whipping and sticking irons, he Really no move.

"Look, what is the art of interrogation!" When it comes to interrogation, Esdeth is obviously a little excited. When he walked towards these rebels, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and his boots were on the ground. Make a rattling sound.

One of the intelligence officers of the rebel army swallowed his saliva for some reason, and looked at the smiling blue-haired female officer who was gradually approaching.

Although he couldn't help feeling a little furious in his heart, he was a soldier of the Revolutionary Army, so how could he be afraid of the lackeys of the empire, "Yellow-mouthed boy, his hair hasn't even grown yet, will he be interrogated? Don't be afraid of peeing your pants, go back to your hometown."

"You will know." Estes still said with a smile.

......

Click.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, Selene soon came to the interrogation place.

Looking at the "peaceful" camp, Selene couldn't help thinking deeply, hiss, this is the bait I put outside the city, why no one bites it...

This is a small tent camp set up outside the city of Patripol. There are only 50 guards in a village. Although the number of guards is very small, this is actually Selene fishing, hidden in the dark, but far away. Not only so few people, but Selene herself can support here at any time.

But, unfortunately, it's the "Air Force" again, sorry for embarrassing the senior "Fishing Guy".

"Ahhh--!"

"Kill me! Kill me!!! Ah——!!!"

...

While complaining, a burst of horrible screams from the camp suddenly interrupted Selene's thinking.

"It seems that Estes has already started..."

Quickly coming to the scene, Selene was no stranger to this bloody scene.

"General!" Seeing Selene approaching, the officer in charge of the interrogation quickly put down the whip in his hand and bowed to salute.

"What's the matter?" Selene asked lightly.

"They are too stubborn. They have been fighting in humble positions for a long time and refused to say anything." Hearing this, the officer's forehead was sweating, and he became a little nervous when speaking.

"It's Estes who is in charge of the interrogation now. She didn't ask any questions, but went directly to the torture." As he spoke, the officer looked at Esdes with a slight trembling.

It was at this time, with a "poof".

There was a wicked smile on the corner of Esdeth's mouth, and he stretched out his hand to hold the sharp knife, and slammed into the opponent's eye socket, directly gouging out the eyeball of the oldest rebel.

"Ah! Ah!..." The old rebel screamed in horror, his voice was sharp and painful, his eye sockets were bloody and blood dripped down half of his face.

Seeing this, the captain of the imperial guards on the side couldn't help straightening his neck, swallowing his saliva with difficulty.

Gouging out the eyeballs of the rebel army directly is too terrifying. Fortunately, he and the general are not enemies. If this method is used on himself, his scalp will feel numb.

The eyeballs fell to the ground, and Esdeth stomped on them, the expression on his face was still cold.

"This feeling of stepping on it is really great. There is still an eye, and then dig it out and step on it. How do you feel?"

"You, you are a demon!" The old rebel soldier screamed in pain, biting his bloody teeth, and staring at Esdeth with his other intact eye.

"I hate people staring at me like this the most, so..."

Estes sighed and raised his hand directly, the sharp blade in his hand gleamed with a sharp cold light, and instantly scratched the skin of the old rebel's throat, "...then go die!"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand to tightly strangle the windpipe of the old rebel soldier, and pulled it out directly, blood splattered everywhere. The death of the old rebel soldier can be described as extremely terrifying.

Esdeth looked at the dead old rebel soldier without any disturbance in her heart. For her, killing people was like hunting dangerous species, there was no difference.

Da da.

Estes walked up to another younger and thinner girl, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, she reached out and held the girl's chin with her index finger.

"Do you want to be like him?" Esdeth's voice was gentle, but in the ears of this rebel girl, it was more terrifying than the voice of a demon.

The rebel girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and her scarred face was covered with cold sweat, mixed with blood as blood flowed down her cheeks.

The corners of her mouth were trembling, and she looked at Esdeth with fear in her eyes.

"me..."

"Okay, there's no need to interrogate her." Before she could finish speaking, a hand wearing a delicate silver-white gauntlet suddenly pressed Esdeath's shoulder.

"General? What do you mean?" Although his personal style is very strong and he doesn't obey discipline very much, Esdes is still a very cute and obedient "good boy" in front of Selene.

"Are you going to save her?"

Hearing Esdeth's guess, Selene couldn't help but smile, "How is it possible, her potential has not reached the point where I want to accept her, and she is a peripheral cannon fodder responsible for delivering news to the rebels, Where do you know what information?"
