Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

"General Masen, are we going to attend the inauguration ceremony of Du?"

In the mountains, a hunting team is hunting.

Masen was wearing safari attire and a beret, holding a double-barreled shotgun aimed at an African antelope.

Within the sight, the antelope seemed to feel the danger, gnawing on the weeds restlessly, and looking up from time to time.

Tu Meng looked at the time and saw that Du Yongxiao's ceremony was about to begin, so he stepped forward and carefully asked Ma Sendao.

Ma Sen looked at the crosshair with one eye and said with a ferocious smile: "What are you doing there? To support him? This time I want to see how Du Yongxiao's ceremony can go on without anyone to support him!"

boom!

The shotgun crackled.

The antelope in the distance jumped and collapsed on the ground, its neck was bleeding profusely, and its mouth kept whining.

"The general is a good marksman!" the people next to him applauded.

Someone has already run forward to collect the prey.

General Masson was very happy. He threw the shotgun to Tumon, then took the big cigar handed over by his subordinates, bit into his mouth and said: "You know, blood can make me excited! Unfortunately, this is only the blood of an antelope, but not the blood of an antelope." That Du Yongxiao’s blood!”

"General, do you really want to kill that Du Yongxiao?" Tu Meng asked.

Ma Sen bit his cigar and looked arrogant: "What do you think? Du Yongxiao refuted my face several times and made it impossible for me to step down! He also shot my subordinate Barton. Do you think I want to kill him?"

"But... Patton is not only greedy for military pay, but also plans to betray you——"

"So what if he betrays me? I am willing to lose to him even if I am a winner or a loser! But among my people, only I, Ma Sen, can decide life and death, and no one else can!"

"I understand!" Tu Meng nodded, "Subordinates like us must obey your arrangements whether life or death will be general, right?"

"Of course!" Mason said arrogantly, "You, including Barton, and you guys--"

Masen held his cigar between his fingers and pointed with contempt at the followers beside him, "Remember clearly, your lives are all mine! If I, Masen, tell you to die, you must die; if I tell you to live, you must live!" "

When the followers heard this, they were all frightened.

They are fully aware of General Masson's tyranny.

"Understood, General!" Tu Meng looked very respectful.

"Just understand! In my eyes, you and Barton are the same. They are just my hounds. You just bite whoever I tell you to bite! I don't need you to give me too much advice, and I don't need you to be overly polite! "Ma Sen's eyes flashed fiercely, "For example, last time, you repeatedly violated the rules and told me to kill that Du Yongxiao! It's my business whether to kill him or not. You, a mere dog, dare to make your own decisions? "

"I'm sorry, General! Never again!" When Tumen said this, his tone was strange, and his eyes showed a hint of coldness.

Mason noticed that Tumeng's tone was wrong and said angrily: "What is your attitude? Believe it or not -"

Before Ma Sen could finish his words, Tu Meng raised his gun and pointed it at him.

General Masson was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Tumen didn't answer, but directly pulled the trigger!

boom!

The shotgun spurted out flames, and Mason was shot straight away!

Lying on the ground, his left leg was bleeding! The entire leg was almost severed by a shotgun!

Ma Sen never dreamed that Tu Meng, his most loyal subordinate, would suddenly shoot him.

Everyone around was shocked.

I didn't react for a while.

"Tumeng, you—" Masen opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Come here, the General is injured while hunting! Take him back for treatment!" Tu Meng said with a cold tone and sharp eyes, "You don't have to be afraid of this cripple anymore!"

The people next to me looked at each other.

Tu Meng looked at them coldly: "Why, do you still want to be his dog?"

Immediately, someone stood up and said, "Take the general away for diagnosis and treatment. From now on, we will only try to fool the colonel into obeying him!"

Others also understood that this was a change of dynasty.

They immediately expressed their loyalty and said: "We are willing to follow the commander and swear allegiance to the death!"

"Very good!" Tumen threw the shotgun in his hand to the person next to him, took out his handkerchief and wiped his palms, then threw the handkerchief to General Masson, and said in a determined tone: "Then the first thing I will announce now is Son - call Ruto, Malonza and others and tell them that General Masson wants to personally congratulate Superintendent Du Yongxiao on his appointment as Major General!"

…

Warlord Ruto's mansion.

"Do you really mean what you said? General Ma Sen is going to congratulate Du Yongxiao on his appointment as Major General?"

"I heard the news is like this, and Colonel Tumon on General Masson's side has already started taking action!"

"How could this happen? Aren't Ma Sen and Du Yongxiao on the wrong side? Why would they come forward to support him?" General Ruto touched his chin, puzzled.

"General, there must be a conspiracy! Maybe the two of them are taking this opportunity to collude!"

"Hiss!" General Ruto gasped.

"Collusion? It's possible! If they really collude, it won't be a good thing for us!"

"Then what the general means-"

"Prepare troops and gifts! Chief Superintendent Du will be appointed as Major General. How can I not go?"

"yes!"

…

"How is that possible? Then Du Yongxiao killed General Ma Sen's subordinate Patton, and the two almost came to blows. Now that Du Yongxiao has been appointed, how can Ma Sen go to congratulate him? Are you mistaken?"

At the mansion of Kenyan warlord Malonza, Malonza held his chin and was puzzled.

Someone next to him said: "General, without further ado, a decision must be made!"

"Yes," another person said, "Either General Masen and the man named Du have really reconciled now, or the two of them have reached some kind of tacit understanding and are preparing to make big moves."

"Big move? You mean-" Malonza's eyes flashed, "the next presidential election?"

Although Kenya is a democratic country on the surface, it implements democratic elections and elects a new president every five years.

But everyone knows that this president is just an empty post in Kenya and cannot mobilize the warlords' troops.

The warlords, including General Ma Sen, often contradict the president and issue orders, but no one is willing to carry them out.

However, because the president has a certain amount of authority, General Mason and others cannot do whatever they want.

Therefore, there are rumors that General Mason is planning to run for president personally this time, and when the time comes, he will have military and political power in his hands.

"It's very possible! No, I can't sit still and wait for death! Come, prepare gifts! I want to personally congratulate Chief Superintendent Du on his appointment as Major General!"

"yes!"

…

The scene of the investiture ceremony.

It's almost time.

The entire event venue was still empty.

Du Yongxiao, who was preparing to go on stage behind the scenes, stood in front of the dressing mirror, arranging his appearance.

The loyal eagle dog Feili was helping him adjust the hem of his military uniform and said, "Boss, you look really handsome in this military uniform! So powerful! What a handsome boy!"

"Ha, Feili, you are very good at it. Even a pretty boy can speak it!" Du Yongxiao praised.

Feili chuckled: "Since I followed you, big brother, I have worked hard to learn Chinese. I am not good at it. Please give me some advice!"

Du Yongxiao is wearing a green major general uniform, with a ribbon hanging on his chest, various general medals on his left chest, and a military cap on his head. His whole posture is full of bravery and domineering.

In fact, the handsome and good-looking words in Feili's words are no longer enough to describe Du Yongxiao's huge aura. If he had to describe it, it would be just two words - heroic.

"Feili, how is Jim's injury?" Du Yongxiao turned around and asked Feili to help adjust the angle of the ribbon.

"Thank you for your concern, boss. He has a lot of injuries! But he told me that it would be a lifelong regret that he didn't have the opportunity to congratulate you personally on your appointment as a major general!"

"Tell him that there are still many opportunities! I will reward you based on your merits at the end of the year, and I might give you a title by then!"

"Huh?" Feili was stunned for a moment, and then he was extremely surprised. He never dreamed that Du Yongxiao would say this. Didn't he mean that he would soon be reemployed?

Sure enough, working with the right boss will bring endless benefits!

"But, boss, there is something I don't know whether to say or not -"

"If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Today is your investiture ceremony, but not many people outside are attending -"

Du Yongxiao smiled and patted Feili on the shoulder: "I know what you are thinking. Are you afraid that I will become the laughing stock of Kenya as a whole?"

"that---"

"Don't worry!" Du Yongxiao interrupted Feili, "I can assure you that today's ceremony will not only be unprecedented, but also unprecedented!"

"Ah?" Feili was stunned and looked at Du Yongxiao, wondering where his boss could have such confidence.

At this moment---

Someone shouted: "Superintendent Du, you have three minutes to go on stage!"

"good!"

Du Yongxiao raised his chin, wearing a military uniform and looking heroic.

…

"The time has already come, and there are only so many people here! I think even the President of Kenya will be embarrassed to come out and confer the title on Du Yongxiao in person later!"

Hong Kong tycoon Zheng Yutong said worriedly.

"Yeah, things don't look good today!"

"I just hope a miracle will happen!"

Hong Kong tycoons Lin Baixin, Li Zhaofu and others spoke one after another.

Everyone's face was heavy. Although they came to congratulate Du Yongxiao on his resignation, we are now in the same boat.

If Du Yongxiao makes a fool of himself today, Hong Kong people like them, and even the Chinese people in Kenya as a whole, will be disgraced.

beside--

"It's ridiculous for a Chinese to call himself a major general after only recruiting 3,000 people!"

"Yes, I heard that his major general was bought with money!"

"These Chinese are doing business in Kenya, robbing our mines, there are not enough oil fields, and now they want to be generals. It's ridiculous!"

Several black Kenyan politicians gathered together to chatter.

For them, it is okay for the noble white British people to colonize and enslave them, and they welcome it with both hands;

But when Chinese people like Du Yongxiao want to step on the heads of black people, they are opposed to it.

The reason is simple. Once a dog gets used to it, it will be difficult to raise its head and accept a new owner.

Those media reporters yawned and looked at their watches————

"Wow, the time has come, why hasn't anyone come yet?"

"It seems like today's investiture ceremony is super deserted!"

"Of course! He is a Chinese major general. If this thing can happen, I would rather twist his head off and play it as a ball!" A black reporter said with disdain.

Others at the scene also believed the same. Many people were yawning in boredom, waiting for Du Yongxiao to come on stage to perform a formality, and then everyone could go home and rest.

Colonel King Kong, Secretary General Simon, Director Fossa and others looked sad when they heard this.

Seeing everyone's appearance, the black reporter who made the sarcastic remarks even gloated: "Face is given to others, but shame is earned by oneself! Now there is not even a ghost, so shame is a complete loss!"

King Kong frowned. What he hated most in his life was that others would laugh at his boss Du in front of him, not to mention that the other person was a young reporter?

Just when King Kong was about to get angry, someone loudly sang: "General Masson has arrived on behalf of Colonel Tumon!"

When the master of ceremonies sang "Nai", he was wondering, why didn't General Masson come in person? Why did he send a representative?

"Uh, what's going on? General Masson sent someone here, it's impossible, right?!"

The Kenyan politicians all looked surprised.

They knew the personal grudge between Du Yongxiao and General Ma Sen very well. Who would have thought that Ma Sen would send someone to congratulate Du Yongxiao on his resignation?

The media reporters were even more surprised at this moment. They couldn't guess what kind of medicine General Masson was selling in his gourd?

Especially the black reporter who made the sarcastic remarks, his face was as red as a monkey's butt. If his face were not dark enough, he would probably bleed!

Just when everyone was speculating, they saw Colonel Tumen coming from a distance with his troops and horses, holding congratulatory gifts, and soon arrived at the ceremony site.

Since Tumen represented General Masson, the people present did not dare to underestimate him and stood up to greet him.

Tu Meng looked unruly, glanced at the crowd and said loudly: "General Masen had an accident while hunting and is currently undergoing emergency treatment in the hospital! While he is recuperating, he has ordered me to handle all matters on his behalf!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder.

Everyone is not a fool.

Who is General Masson? How could he be injured while hunting? Even if he was injured, he would cling to his power, so how could he authorize it to Colonel Tumon?

For a time, everyone was thinking about various pictures.

As Lieutenant Colonel Vance who had studied at Shijiazhuang Military Academy in China, a sentence that a Chinese teacher taught him suddenly came to mind:

"Hold the emperor to order the princes!"

Looking at Colonel Tumen at this moment, it seems that he has taken control of all the troops of General Ma Sen, replacing Ma Sen as a new generation of warlord.

He looked down upon the heroes with a domineering attitude.

At this moment, Du Yongxiao appeared.

Colonel Tumeng, who was still looking down at the crowd just now, immediately restrained his domineering attitude when he saw Du Yongxiao. His eyes even flashed a trace of imperceptible flattery, and he greeted Du Yongxiao: "Chief Superintendent Du, congratulations on being awarded the rank of major general!"

Under everyone's surprised gazes, Du Yongxiao nodded lightly, looked at the new warlord who replaced General Ma Sen, and said: "Very good, you came at the right time! Has the matter over there been resolved?"

"Yes, it has been solved! I hope Major General Du will support him in the future!"

After saying——

Snapped!

Putting his feet together and raising his hands, Tu Meng gave a military salute directly to Du Yongxiao.

Tu Meng's move made everyone stunned.

Especially those media reporters, as well as military and political leaders, there is only one thought in their minds at the moment -——

When did Tu Meng collude with Du Yongxiao? !
