I Will Be The Crowned King

Vol 5 Chapter 17: satisfactory negotiation

Of course it was more irreversible.

The Storm Legion was completely convicted without any substantive evidence, which is equivalent to the two sides being completely evil and going to court; and once it goes to court, it is not the War Department's own decision, and it depends on the king and the Privy Council. Not willing to cooperate.

As the loyal ministers of the kingdom, the former at least must have full confidence in themselves, and firmly believe that His Majesty will never fail to distinguish between loyal and traitor, and must support them.

As for the latter... But any sensible senior War Department official would not think that he was completely sure.

So their wishful thinking is obvious... Deliberately put on a tough attitude to provoke the other party, and let the Storm Legion do irrational behavior to take the initiative to hand over the handle, and they can justifiably frame it and talk back.

Ideally, the entire Storm Legion would be sentenced without even going to court.

It's just that the Storm Legion arrived a day earlier than them, and at the same time, all the people in ambush in the city have been wiped out. At the same time, the Cecil family took the initiative to form an alliance with the Storm Legion... It is a little flaw in this perfect plan.

This is also the confidence that Anson dares to go directly to the door - the other party can't catch his own handle, and the Privy Council faction headed by Viscount Bogner has also formed an alliance with him. Even if he goes to court, the Storm Legion may not lose.

And if the Ministry of the Army cannot win this lawsuit, it cannot make the Storm Legion become a traitor that has been infamous for thousands of years. The excuse they used to unite the army of hundreds of thousands of people will collapse in an instant, and even turn into a villain who framed "the loyal ministers of the kingdom". , became the second guard of the fallen Guards.

"...So if you two have anything else you want to ask, please feel free to speak. I will definitely confess and I will say everything I know."

The smiling Anson crossed his fingers on the table, sat on the chair in a very relaxed posture, and said with a smile.

In the station lounge, which was as quiet as a tomb, the two War Department officials looked at each other, their expressions extremely strange.

Being able to be selected by the Ministry of the Army to carry out such a difficult task, the two of them are naturally experienced. They have dealt with many stubborn legions, they have seen those who are slick and skilled in dancing, and they have also encountered violent arrests.

But it is quite rare that Anson Bach is very active, even more active than them; the enthusiasm even makes them unable to say: "Do you know that we are here to harm you?"

Of course, as professionals, they put it in a more euphemistic way: "Brigadier General Anson Bach, do you... really know what we're here for?"

"If I don't understand, why would I take the initiative to meet the two of you?" An Sen said with a smile of "you know what to ask":

"I'm ready to make a complete confession, and the two of you can start asking questions at any time."

"You know what we're asking?"

"do not know."

"Then why do you say you're ready to confess?"

"I'm just prepared, it doesn't mean I know what to confess." Anson laughed again:

"The specific content, of course, depends on the question of the two of you - otherwise?"

"…"

The two officials looked at each other again, what should they do, they couldn't say: "No need, we are here to frame you"?

"Cough cough!"

Sitting on the left, the officer with a slanted scar on his face coughed twice, pretending to be fierce and solemn: "Brigadier Anson, since you are so cooperative, please state your past two years in Beluga Harbor. Employment situation."

"Who is this?" Anson turned his attention to another officer.

"Ah, his name is..."

"You can call me Major Russell. As for the position, that's not something you need to consider."

Not waiting for his colleagues to speak, the scarred-faced Major Russell directly stole: "Please answer my question, Your Excellency Brigadier General Anson, please state what you have done in the Beluga Harbor Colony in the past two years."

"If that's the case, then I can only ask you to forgive me." Anson's expression remained unchanged: "I won't tell you even half a word about this matter, Major Russell."

"Oh?" Major Russell sneered: "Didn't you say you must know everything, and you changed your mind so quickly?"

"On the contrary, I did it purely out of business principles."

Anson said sternly: "A full set of paper reports have been written and handed over to Major General Ludwig on everything that happened from when I officially took office in the 101st year of the Saint Calendar until two or three months ago. Present it to Your Majesty and the War Office."

"The intersection is due to my personal impromptu dictation without any information. Obviously, the paper report is more comprehensive, and there is also Major General Ludwig's own assessment report, which is much more objective than me alone."

"As for why you didn't answer... Of course it's because the two of you asked this question, obviously because you haven't seen the report yet." An Sen said word by word:

"If there is a discrepancy between the conclusions you have drawn now and my paper report, then did I deceive the two of you, or did I deceive your Majesty together with Major General Ludwig and even the entire Clovis Crusader Army?"

"this…"

Seeing that Major Russell was planning to continue to bite, he quickly stopped him and said with a chuckle, "We will study this carefully, and then consider whether to ask you a question after confirming that it is correct."

"Brigadier Anson, please don't be too hostile to the War Department. We are just following the rules; you and the Storm Legion are only suspects now, and no one must accuse you of being traitors."

"Of course I know this. Everyone is only doing their own work. There is no conflict or conflict." An Sen pretended to be indifferent and smiled: "Excuse me..."

"Crowne, Lieutenant Colonel, belongs to the General Staff like Major Russell, and runs errands for adults who manage personnel." Lieutenant Colonel Crowne said with a self-deprecating expression:

"How many times have I heard about you, it's really not easy; I ran into the Battle of Thunder Castle before I graduated, and I would have gone mad long ago!"

It's been less than thirty minutes since it started, and it's about to set my bottom... Anson shrugged indifferently:

"You exaggerated. That battle just looked hard, but it was an inside battle after all. It was actually easy to win."

"But it was precisely because of that battle that you won the favor of the Franz family, and laid the foundation for the Storm Division that will be the current Storm Legion." Lieutenant Colonel Klauen said with emotion:

"How many people can firmly grasp the fleeting opportunity like you; how many people can rely on the amazing talents on the battlefield to turn over and be promoted to lieutenant colonel directly?"

"There are absolutely few, if not unprecedented, situations like this, so the decision you made at the time was the right one, and others either couldn't do it or didn't have the courage you had at the time!"

Lieutenant Colonel Krowne, who praised him without hesitation, suddenly changed the subject: "But... that was then, not now."

"With the end of the holy war, more and more people have noticed the contradiction between Archbishop Luther and the Holy See; at the same time, His Majesty himself has begun to feel tired of the Franz family's invincibility."

"It's not the right choice to continue to stand with them..."

This is to provoke the relationship between me and the Franz family. It seems that even if they have the upper hand, the War Department is still very afraid of the protagonist Luther... Anson secretly said in his heart.

However, it is actually quite normal for them to do this. Not to mention the detached status of the archbishop of the diocese, the relationship between Luther Franz himself and His Majesty the King is the biggest threat in the eyes of the "loyal ministers" of the Ministry of War.

After all, loyal ministers cannot be hostile to each other. If a loyal minister encounters a guy who is more loyal than himself and is trusted by His Majesty, he must be flattering and treacherous, and he needs to be beaten down as soon as possible.

In addition, relying on the advantages of the church, the Franz family has even crushed many wealthy families in Clovis City financially. In the military, it has Ludwig as a pillar, and it is also not small in the army.

In fact, in the eyes of most Clovis people, Ludwig is the "general star" who has risen in recent years, leading Clovis from one victory to another.

The Battle of Thundercastle, the suppression of the riots in Clovis City, the Battle of Iser's Revenge, and the recent Holy War... Except for the few months when the Army deliberately arranged to "sit on the bench", Ludwig rarely lost, almost It is a sure-fire victory.

After all, unlike the cannon fodder that can be discarded at will, no one dared to conceal Ludwig’s military exploits; adding up to the victories of several battles, no one dared to question his major general’s rank and military level.

With steady achievements and absolute saturation propaganda, no matter how much the War Department hates the Franz family, it cannot stop the middle and lower-level officers from admiring Ludwig.

But since they want to target the Franz family so much, they might as well let them think that their guesses are true... An Sen, who moved in his heart, suddenly sighed:

"Actually... I am also a little dissatisfied with the Franz family."

Um? !

Just now, they were still under pressure, and the two of them were instantly refreshed, and they stared at Anson's cheeks intently, trying to read his micro-expressions.

"From the outsiders' point of view, my status today is all thanks to the support of the Franz family, but in fact, when did I not throw me a big trouble and let me solve it myself?!" Anson sighed and complained:

"I won't talk about the Battle of Thunder Castle. I was a student who had not graduated yet, so why did you suddenly force me to go to the battlefield?"

"It was the same in Clovis City. It sounded so nice that I formed a reinforcement regiment to manage the law and order. As a result, there were only two people in the regiment plus my secretary. Even the officers had to figure out how to do it myself!"

"In the battle of Issel Kingdom, in order to complete Major General Ludwig's genius siege operation, I had to find a way to climb over the Dawn Ice Peak! More than 2,000 people lost their way on the snowy mountain and almost died of freezing on it! "

"I finally finished fighting the royal court of Iser, and I didn't give me a chance to rest at all. I directly sent the Beluga Harbor colony! In order to prevent the soldiers from mutiny on the spot, I almost went bankrupt!"

"It's the same when I was in the colony. It's obviously far away from the mainland, but I still refuse to give me power. I also have to guarantee the interests of the Franz family. How can I guarantee this?!"

"When the holy war broke out, I turned out to be a traitor... nonsense, the holy war army has come to the door, and if I don't join forces with the imperial colonies, do I have to commit suicide to prove my loyalty to the kingdom?!"

...watching Anson's incessant complaints, both War Department officials were stunned.

Originally, I just wanted to provoke the relationship between the other party and the Franz family, but now it seems that the Ministry of War is thinking too much - there is no need to provoke here, they have long been in the same situation!

It seems that Anson Bach is cooperating with the interests of the Franz family everywhere, but he is only forced to do so; after all, apart from doing this, a guy like him who has been promoted exceptionally and has no personal connections can't find a second backer, so Even if the Franz family doesn't behave like a human being, he has only this only choice.

This... If this is the case, it seems that it can be used completely to let the Franz family's own forces kill each other!

Lieutenant Colonel Klawn, who thought of this wonderful attention, exchanged a tacit glance with his companions, and then turned his eyes to Anson: "Don't be too excited, Your Excellency, this kind of thing is actually very common."

"In the eyes of the big men, people like us are just tools that can be used; it will give you something to be happy, but it will quickly leave you behind."

"After all, for them, no matter how loyal you are, you are not a member of their family, so why waste resources on you?"

"But for us, it's completely different." Krowne changed his words: "Everyone is the army, the loyal servants of His Majesty the King, and the cornerstone of the entire kingdom."

"Only if we unite, we can make those wealthy families no longer have the power to monopolize the power and let the whole country really get on the right track, and His Majesty can truly rule the kingdom without being overridden by the bureaucrats of the Privy Council!"

"That's right, in fact, I think so too." An Sen strongly agreed: "That's why I took the initiative to come to greet the two of you, because I firmly believe that they are also loyal ministers of the kingdom, and they should not be separated from each other. !"

"Then, UU reading www.uukanshu.com loyal Brigadier General Anson Bach."

Major Russell, who had been silent for a long time, finally said: "As for the accusations of all your actions in the colony, you are ready to..."

"The two of you and I set off immediately and headed to Clovis City." An Sen said sternly:

"Not just me, but the entire Storm Legion and the Free Confederacy's mission set out together to speak with facts."

"If I am really a traitor, I am willing to be punished; if not... Continue to serve the kingdom and be a loyal servant of Clovis, which is also my only wish!"

"And doing this, there is also a benefit for the two of you - we will set off on the steam train, and on the way you can interrogate the other members of the Storm Legion alone; everyone is separated by the carriage, and it is impossible to collude and escape. Can you Finding evidence depends on the efforts of the two of you, and I will never interfere."

"So... are you satisfied?"

I will be crowned king
