Chapter 725 Testing the Wrong Target
The failure to conduct the second phase of confrontation training is a tacit understanding between the two parties. Holding the meeting means that they have skipped the second phase of the original plan.
This is natural. In fact, the end of the first phase is already the confrontation content of the second phase. Sakura Country did not mention the confrontation drill just to save face for itself. After all, the opponent's team defeated Sakura Country. The fleet and the strongest military base are miserable. If the entire fleet goes up together, the defeat will only be worse.
The Bunitalia side feels that it is completely unnecessary. The most important intelligence on Itsukushima base has been obtained, and the level of Sakura Country's army has been experienced. It would be a waste of time to conduct confrontation exercises.
"This should be the first time we meet, right? Your Highness Cornelia, Your Highness Yang Hui." Chisong participated in this meeting as the commander-in-chief of the exercise. He just wanted to get in touch with Cornelia and Yang Hui personally. Mainly Yang Hui.
"First meeting, General Akamatsu." Cornelia shook hands with Akamatsu without any embarrassment. Akamatsu was able to see through that their ultimate goal was Itsukushima base and arranged for people to arrest them in advance. This was worthy of Cornelia's Leah's approval.
“Your Highness Yang Hui?”
Chisong’s gaze and call made Yang Hui, who was following Cornelia, stunned for a moment. He was still participating as Cornelia’s entourage this time. Yes, I plan to continue being a little transparent.
It stands to reason that Cornelia is the top person in charge of Bunitalia. Chisong only exchanged a few pleasantries with Cornelia, but he took the initiative to call Yang Hui. His intention is worth pondering.
“Hello, General Akamatsu.”
"Haha, it's true that heroes emerge from youth. When I was your age, I seemed to be skipping classes and playing around, right?"
"Thank you, General Akamatsu."
"Too modest. You are just proud, Your Highness Yang Hui."
In response to Chisong's remarks, Yang Hui pursed his lips and smiled but did not answer. He probably guessed why Chisong took the initiative to talk to him, and Chisong's eyes occasionally flashed with probing eyes. and analytical gaze can also explain his purpose.
After Chisong hit a soft nail, he stopped pestering Yang Hui. He also praised Yang Hui's calmness in his heart. Generally speaking, people of Yang Hui's age can easily defeat veterans like Chisong. For example, when you meet now, you should say a few sarcastic words to show off yourself or something.
But Yang Hui didn't, and he saw that his thoughts didn't talk to him very much.
"By the way, Your Highness Cornelia, I would like to ask, there have been no cases of missing persons in your concession recently, right?"
"Huh?" Cornelia frowned upon hearing this. She frowned slightly. She didn't understand why Akamatsu suddenly jumped to the missing persons case. Neither Cornelia nor Akamatsu were in charge of this field. Such matters should be asked to the chief security officer.
However, Cornelia did not think about it, and immediately relaxed her brows, returned to her elegant state, and replied to Akamatsu: "I'm sorry, General Akamatsu, the concession has always been safe. There has been and will not be any missing persons. "Really? That's great. Alas, there have been cases of missing persons in our country recently. It's really worrying that annoying and missing citizens have not been found." That family is my old friend’s family, and he is the only one left at home, so he is very anxious.”
"I see." Cornelia nodded and said to Akamatsu, "General Akamatsu, don't worry, I believe your police officers will be able to catch the criminals and rescue the missing citizens."
" Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness Cornelia.”
“You’re welcome.”
Yang Hui didn’t speak and just looked at Chisong with a smile. Cornelia didn’t understand. But he understood that the population was missing and there was only one person left in the old friend's family, so the person he was talking about must be Todo Kaishiro's wife and children.
Subiki Genbu, Kyoto Rokuga, and Akamatsu all guessed wrong, but they all guessed wrong. Todo Kaishiro’s wife and children are indeed in the Bunitalia Concession, but they are not Bunitalia. What was taken away was not Ya's intelligence organization, but Yang Hui's personal power.
Yang Hui didn't tell Cornelia about this, so Cornelia didn't understand what Chisong was talking about.
However... Yang Hui believed that he had given Chisong a hint. If the other party didn't find out, then he wouldn't be blamed.
Akasatsu was also testing, and found that Cornelia did not have a strange expression. She was obviously not an insider, but Cornelia is now the highest-ranking person in the concession, Bunitalia’s Could she really not know what the intelligence agency was doing?
So Cornelia is either really unaware, or she is too good at acting.
Originally Chisong was more inclined to the latter, but he noticed Yang Hui's expression with his peripheral vision, realized something, and judged that Cornelia was really unaware.
However, Chisong was not in a hurry to test Yang Hui. The other party had just declined his invitation to contact him. Not only would he get nothing if he approached him, but he would also arouse the other party's disgust and even make the meeting go wrong.
As the people from both sides arrived and exchanged a few words of business flattery, the meeting officially began. It was still so boring that Yang Hui almost dozed off while sitting aside.
Because an hour has passed and basically no useful content has been said.
However, it is understandable that formal diplomatic activities will not be discussed on such an occasion, and Cornelia will not care about it, just leave it to the officials of the diplomatic department to deal with it, and Sakura Country’s The purpose is to use the art of language to modify the disastrous result of this exercise in front of the camera and make it look more acceptable. However... this is only on the surface. In fact, for the failure of this military exercise, Sakura Country did not have to pay anything. For example, the export price of Sakura Stone will be slashed, and the citizens of Bunitalia will be killed in Sakura. Improve domestic status and so on.
Of course, these are things that would be discussed on other occasions. This meeting is about Sakura Kingdom asking Bunitalia or Cornelia for a favor.
Cornelia expressed disdain for this kind of behavior, but in front of the world's cameras, she would not go too far. Her attitude and tone were not so tough and coercive, but only at certain key points. Just don't give in on the issue.
Two hours later, the meeting ended...no, it should be said that it was forced to end, because Cornelia had become impatient, and Shumu Xuanwu and others did not dare to continue to be shameless. Otherwise, Cornelia will be really anxious. If she doesn't keep the little bit of face she wants, the rest may be thrown away.
But before the meeting ended, Cornelia announced to the world the order of Charles DI Bunitalia, publicly announcing that Yang Hui had become the governor of the Bunitalia Concession in Sakura Country and owned the concession. highest authority.
As soon as this order came out, the expressions of Shumu Xuanwu and the heads of the six families in Kyoto were not very good-looking. They wanted to send away the two evil tigers quickly, but in the end they sent one away, and the other one was directly planning to attack. Is their family settled? How can I bear this! ?
Of course, no matter how uncomfortable it is, you can only endure it. If this is Yang Hui's own wish, they still have room to discuss it, but this is the order of Charles DI Bunitaria, and it is absolute. , there is no room for negotiation.
Akamatsu acted very calmly about this. After all, he felt that Cornelia and Yang Hui would not leave Sakura Country easily from the beginning, but if he had a choice, he hoped that Cornelia would Stay and leave Yang Hui.
"Hahaha, have you seen their expressions? It's so funny! Hahaha..." On the way back to the car, Cornelia finally couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed while holding her belly. stand up.
“There are still times when the imperial sister is shady.” Yang Hui laughed and shook his head. It would be easier if their hopes were shattered from the beginning, but Cornelia gave them hope first, and then ruthlessly broken.
“Learned it from you.”
"Haha." Yang Hui rolled his eyes. Anyway, for Cornelia, things that are not in line with the iron-blooded and tough style are all learned from her? I am an all-around scapegoat when it comes to my brother.
"By the way, Yang Hui, Chisong suddenly told me about the missing persons case...what do you think he meant?" Cornelia asked Yang Hui. Chisong was definitely not just chatting with her when he said this. Just joking, she wanted to understand Akamatsu's purpose.
“It’s very simple, Todo Keishiro’s family.”
“Todo Keishiro’s family?”
“Yes, Todo Keishiro will serve as an explanation to appease the people. After being sacrificed, his family is no longer important, but Akamatsu and Todo Kaishiro are friends for many years, maybe it is a debt and compensation. "
"Haha, a rotten country, a cowardly leader." After hearing this, Cornelia sneered disdainfully, because losing a duel would cause social turmoil. It is simply stupid and decadent. If it happened in Bunita Leah, if anyone dares to cause trouble, just send troops to suppress it!
There are also Shumu Xuanwu and others who have no courage and actually sacrificed an outstanding talent just for the sake of rumors. Only a cowardly and incompetent leader would make this choice of abandoning his soldiers to save his chariot. Really The strong man always wants them all!
"Wait! Why did Kaishiro Todo's family disappear and he come to me?" Cornelia thought of the key question, then looked at Yang Hui and saw the joking smile on his face , "Is it you?"
"It's me." Yang Hui nodded.
“But? What’s the reason?”
"Of course it's Todo Kaishiro."
"But he's not..."
"I have my own way."
"..." Cornelia After staring at Yang Hui for a few seconds, he smiled and shook his head, "It seems that you will have another general under your command."
"Maybe, maybe not one, maybe more than one." Yang Hui looked out the car window. said.
The future [Four Sword Masters] are now the subordinates of Toudo Keishirou, and they are all impressed by Toudo Keishirou's personality charm and are loyal to him. If possible, Yang Hui still does not intend to let him go. After all, this world is a bit Those who are capable have names and surnames, and the others...are basically worthless.
But... to be honest, Yang Hui is just trying, and he is not 100% sure that Todo Kaishiro can surrender.
After finishing the game, the order of the chapters was wrong again. I have contacted BJ to change it. I am very sorry! (Tuxiazao.ING)
