"General!" ×N

Hearing several familiar voices, Selene looked over in the past. The people who came were the imperial lieutenants headed by Jinsa, and what made her most curious was the strict aliens tied up behind them. .

"he is..."

------

Chapter 130 Nine Good News to the Imperial Capital

"Who is he?" Selene looked curiously.

This bound "foreigner" is quite different, his skin is fairer than the dark southwestern alien.

"General, don't look at this man's dress of a foreign race. Judging from his accent, he should be from the southern border of the empire. Although there has been no interrogation...but it can be guessed that he should be in charge of contacting foreign races in the rebel army." middleman."

As he said that, a school lieutenant kicked him directly, and said in a low voice with a bad face: "Bah, a bunch of traitors!"

"Rebels, then there's no need to interrogate him, just kill... um, wait..." After thinking for a moment, Selene suddenly noticed, "Send him to Patripol City, let the so-called Let the 'people' go to trial him."

"Didn't the rebel army claim to be the liberators who overthrew the tyranny of the empire? Well, let's hand it over to the 'people' to judge...Let me see if you, who have colluded with other races and caused the displacement of the people, will get the people forgive me."

The so-called killing and punishing one's heart is nothing more than that!

"Oh, by the way, you go to a few people to strengthen your guard, and don't make me such a ridiculous thing as being robbed!" Selene added.

"Yes!"

The result for this rebel army was nothing more than being torn to pieces by the angry people. After all, it was the invasion of foreign invaders caused by him, which caused the people to be displaced.

"Have you caught the alien leader, is it alive or dead?" Selene continued to ask.

"Report to General, still alive, bring it up!"

After finishing speaking, two strong and tall imperial soldiers brought the bloody alien leader to Selene like dragging a dead dog.

"He is the patriarch of this foreign tribe in the southwest, and he is also one of the four chief culprits who harassed the border of the empire. Now three of them have been killed, and only the southern rebels are left... Except for the middleman, these are in his palace Letters that secretly communicated with the rebel army and rebelled against the empire found here."

Saying that, a school lieutenant handed the document bag to Selene.

Taking the file bag, Selene looked at the patriarch of the alien race who was kneeling on the ground with interest, "Do you have anything to say?"

"I am a subsidiary country of the empire, and I have the title of the empire. I want to see Your Majesty, you are not qualified to deal with me! I want..." Seeing Selene with a pleasant expression on her face, the patriarch of the foreign tribe in the Southwest suddenly became courageous shouted loudly.

boom!

"Shut up!" Before he could continue yelling, a school lieutenant punched him in the abdomen, causing him to retch and fall to his knees.

"Presumptuous! The one in front of you is the general of the empire, the commander of the Eighth and Ninth Legion of the Imperial Guard, who is in charge of all military affairs in the southwest of the empire..."

"Okay, why are you talking so much to a dead man?" Selene reached out her hand to stop the captain's 'chanting' behavior, and then said 'kindly': "You are really shameless..."

"... If you win the battle, it's called to win the living space for the nation, to resist the tyranny of the empire, and for freedom? If you can't win the battle, remember that you are still a nobleman who was once conferred by the empire? What about the vassal states of the empire?"

"When you looted the territory of the empire not long ago, why didn't you think that you were a vassal state of the empire? Just admit your mistake and want to buy and sell what you committed? How can there be such a good thing in the world!"

"Take it down, break the limbs, and remember not to let him die. He is the testimony of the great victory on the front line."

"Teachers return to court!" Immediately after the counting was completed, Selene issued an order to return to the division, and brought more than [-] foreign captives back to the empire in a mighty manner.

And wouldn't the alien bandit leader in his hand just offer his captives to the imperial capital?I believe that Ornest, who has just become a minister, should still need a big military victory to consolidate his position.

"Honest, my benefits are not so easy to get..."

......

In the imperial capital, at the "lake" wharf in the south, a few idle citizens of the imperial capital leaned under the shade of a tree and looked towards the Imperial Guard station in the center of the lake island.

"I can't get any benefits related to this 'lake'. I heard that those nobles are very angry."

"Hehe, they only dare to complain. Do they still dare to find General Selene unhappy? Are they looking for death?"

In sight, hundreds of tall and majestic ships majestically occupied most of the berths on both sides of the 'Island of the Lake', and densely packed imperial imperial guards lined up on the shore, guarding all directions.

The shining blades and gun blades prohibit all civilians from passing by.

On the bridge, the tense construction has not stopped, and countless laborers are like bees, quickly shuttling through this long and narrow "hive".

The overseers in charge of security are basically members of the Ninth Army of the Selene Guards.

In this scene, apart from the imperial officials and Selene, no other private forces participated, which naturally greatly violated the interests of the nobles in the imperial capital.

Naturally, it's not that there is no profit to make the mind faint, and the daring people want to get a share. After all, I am a local gentry in the imperial capital. You have made such a big profit in the imperial capital and on my territory. It is reasonable to give some compensation.

So that unlucky brazen guy was hung on the bridge by Sebastian, blowing the cold wind for three days and three nights.

Although it will not be as cruel as his own lady (if it is Selene, it is estimated that the whole family of that unlucky person has ascended to heaven.), but as a competent private housekeeper, it is Sebas's duty to manage the lady's property well .

He is kind, but he is not a cat or a dog, and he can handle even stinky fish and rotten shrimp!

This scene immediately made all the gentry of the imperial capital confirm that even if General Selene was not around, this old gentleman-like butler would not be a good target to be bullied.

Naturally, these gentry of the imperial capital chose to face the reality from the heart, isn't it just for this benefit, and they should be honoring General Selene.

In the face of power, it is always easy for people to find excuses.

What else?Do you count on their group of pampered nobles and Selene to kill without batting an eyelid? !

Up to now, even ordinary people in the imperial capital know that this "lake" was blown out by General Selene's ultimate move "Ultimate Heavenly Power".

Suddenly, I saw the bridge construction site that was still under construction, cheering for a long time.

"What's going on here?"

"The sound seems to be good news, and the front line has won a big victory!"

Hearing the movement, countless citizens who were active outside followed the prestige, and saw dozens of letter officials riding south, with flag tassels on their backs, passing through the city gate, heading straight for the imperial city, shouting along the way.

"Victory in the Southwest!"

Chapter 140 Empire Double Wall

Today's imperial capital seems to be more vibrant than yesterday's. Whether it is the lower city or the upper city, it is bustling with people.

Regardless of what those court officials think, but at least in the eyes of most ordinary citizens, isn't a big victory over the foreign race in the Southwest something that should be cheered?

But at this time, the political hall of the Imperial Palace is a different scene.

"Silence! Silence!"

"This is the palace hall, not a vegetable market! As a member of the imperial court, how noisy are you! Today is just discussing the issue of rewards for General Selene, so quickly come up with a charter and present it to His Majesty."

"That can't be such a heavy reward! The minister objects!"

"Secondary! General Selene caused such a large-scale killing, it is really outrageous!"

"The minister thinks that it is not rewardable! On the contrary, he will be punished heavily!"

Needless to say, these opponents are basically Qingliu, who belong to the former minister and the Jolly faction. They advocate peaceful coexistence with various alien races on the border and oppose reckless use of weapons.

Previously, when the foreign tribes in the Southwest had just begun to revolt, some officials even wrote a letter proposing to give up the province of Patripole in order to reassure the people of the world. Anyway, the empire is vast and rich in resources, and it is not bad for this border province.

"You fart! I'm fighting in the front, and you literati who eat dry food know how to squat behind you all day long!"

"In order to secure the hearts of the 'people of the world'? Peace of mind! I think it's the hearts of people from other races! I suspect that you have secretly communicated with people from other races! You are spies of people from other races!"

In the camp of military attaches, facing these Qingliu's slander and slander against Selene, many imperial generals suddenly became furious and jumped out to sneer.

The smell of gunpowder between the two sides is getting stronger and stronger. If they were not deterred by the ancestor's motto "A warrior should not interfere in politics", they would have done it long ago.

...

On the day when the news of the great victory came, even though the emperor was lying on the hospital bed, he excitedly announced that the whole country would celebrate the three-day celebration and the curfew would be suspended.

He has been on the throne for more than 20 years, and the capricious white-eyed wolf of the Southwest alien race has been entangled with the emperor for half his life, betraying and submitting every year. Due to various reasons, several crusades have failed, he is aggrieved!

Being eliminated by Selene today, any form of expression is not enough to express the excitement of the emperor at this time.

Immediately afterwards, it was announced that the courtiers would discuss the issue of rewards for Sir Selene.

Selene's expedition to the southwestern foreign tribes, spanning nearly ten thousand miles, lasted for more than three months, and captured tens of thousands of prisoners.

For a while, all the children of different races in the Southwest stopped crying when they heard Selene's fame.

Compared with the mourning people outside the southwestern part of the empire, the entire border provinces of the empire were filled with joy, as if celebrating the New Year.

Some states and counties near the border even spontaneously organized large-scale celebrations to celebrate the empire's victory in conquering the foreign races in the southwest.

The foreign race has suffered such heavy losses, it is estimated that they will not be able to commit crimes for decades, and these small people can finally live a peaceful life.

No one in the southwestern border provinces of the empire thought that Selene's southern expedition would go so smoothly, let alone that Selene's southern expedition would achieve such remarkable results.

Selene led the army deep into the hinterland of the foreign tribes in the southwest, looking at all the way, the aliens fled watching the wind, destroyed their army, their clan, and captured their heads. The three major tribes of the southwestern foreign tribes were all wiped out in a short period of time!

This is an unprecedented victory that has never been seen since the turmoil in the empire 500 years ago!It can be said to sweep away the century-old decadence of the empire's foreign military affairs!

If we say that before the Southern Expedition, Selene was just a general of the imperial guards who had a reputation in the imperial capital.

Then, after this battle, Selene's reputation will immediately spread throughout the entire empire, comparable to that of the great general Bude who guards the imperial capital!

In countless people's chanting, Selene and Bud are impressively tied together as the "Double Walls of the Empire"!

The streets and alleys of the imperial capital are full of people who tell the story of Selene’s Southern Expedition, various bards on the streets, countless storytellers in the taverns...

As time goes by, from the northern frontier fortress to the southern island, from the white-haired old man to the young children, they all tell about Selene's military exploits and look forward to the next "prosperous age" of the empire.

However, it is a pity that what they don't know is that this is just the last flashback of the Millennium Empire.

With this achievement, Selene's official residence in the upper city was visited by groups of people, and even some ordinary people, because they could not enter the upper city, kowtowed to Selene's official residence outside the gate of the upper city. before leaving.

The foreign race in the Southwest is so hated.

Of course, apart from the huge prestige earned by Selene in this battle, on the surface, the emperor and Minister Ernest were the biggest beneficiaries of this victory.

After Selene's victory in the Southern Conquest, Ornest's position as a minister became more stable, and the emperor of the empire also preserved his posthumous name. At least in his opinion, Selene was still his "loyal minister and good general". He did not believe Believe it too, because he has no time...

......

At this time, when there was a lot of quarrel in the court hall, the two regents, Budd and Ornest, came to the emperor's bedroom, and they walked in side by side under the leadership of the waiter.

Stepping into the bedroom, Bude's footsteps became softer, for fear of disturbing the emperor.

"Oh...the two mistresses are here." At this time, in the bedroom, the emperor was uncharacteristically sober, full of energy, no longer coughing, with a good news in his hand, and even laughed heartily.

However, when Bude saw this scene, his mood inevitably sank, because he knew... His Majesty is just the last flashback now.

"Your Majesty." ×2

"Ahem... two lovers, how long will it take for Sir Selene to return to Beijing?" the emperor asked with great interest.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, General Selene's army has already set foot on the return journey, and it should have left the Patripole province according to the time, but it will probably take at least two months before the army returns to Beijing." Bud replied road.

"Alas... It seems that I will not see the moment of offering captives." Hearing this, the emperor's eyes showed a faint trace of regret, but he quickly adjusted and continued to ask, "You guys How is the discussion on the reward for Sir Selene?"

"Your Majesty, I propose that you be knighted!" Hearing this, Ernest suggested in a timely manner.

As you can see, this is the real purpose of Ornest, and the promotion of military rank is second. Didn't Selene say that she is a hermit family? Well, do what you like and propose that Selene become a fief noble .

This will not only satisfy Selene, but also reduce her time in the imperial capital, and at the same time show her favor to Bude, it can also protect her own power.

Chapter 140 The Earl of Habsburg

"A knighthood?"

Bude glanced at Ernest when he heard the words, and then said, "Your Majesty, I agree with the knighthood."

"General Selene conquered the foreign tribes in the southwest, captured more than 30 enemies, and beheaded [-]. He has made great contributions to the empire and should be knighted."

"But...the minister thinks that General Selene still needs to be promoted to the military position, and the army has already calmed down!"

Ernest was shocked when he heard this, and panicked in his heart. Who doesn't know that Selene is a rising star in his Bude Guard system, and Bude is trying to win over Selene by saying this stubbornly?Still testing yourself?

In fact, it was just Ornest's overthinking. In his eyes, a professional soldier like Bude, who was upright and staid and dedicated to serving the empire, relied on his strength and military merit.

And Selene has strength and military exploits, and most importantly, he did not show any disobedience. Then Bud, as the head of the military attache of the empire, how could he turn a blind eye to Selene's military exploits.

Ornest said immediately: "I believe that the merits of General Selene are determined by His Majesty."
