Xifan Port Port District Court.
The marble walls are carved with balances that symbolize justice, and under the majestic dome are displayed circles of seats.
There were five judges sitting on the trial table, all in their fifties and sixties. The wrinkled faces were full of solemnity and looked respectful.
The wide jury seat was also full.
A small number of them were officers of the Southern Army, while most of the others were local Willant citizens of Xifan Port, or just happened to pass by the local Willant merchants.
People were extremely enthusiastic about this trial, and some even came from Yong Nightang or other colonies, not for the business opportunities brought by the upcoming army of 300,000, but for the court to take a look.
And the reason why people are so interested is not only because of the identity of the defendant, but also because of the charges brought out in this trial, which involve three counts of betrayal of the Willant people, betrayal of the Legion, and betrayal of the Marshal.
So many big hats are extremely rare in the history of the Legion.
Especially this guy is still an honorary Willant who has been promoted through military achievements.
Everyone sitting in the jury table became even more curious!
It is said that the court charged a lot of money just by selling tickets to the jury seats!
Looking at the man being taken to court, Penny, who was sitting in the jury table, couldn't help but clench her fists, and sweat oozed out of her palms.
In the other corner of the jury table, a man wearing an officer's hat also sat in the auditor's seat.
He looked young, with a bulge in the middle of the bridge of his nose, and his eyes were firm and cold, and he looked at the pangolin who was taken to the dock with interest, like an eagle overlooking his prey.
This person is Gulyon, the commander-in-chief of the combat area of the Bharat Province, and the three-star tenement of the Southern Legion!
Before coming to Xifan Port, he heard a lot of heroic deeds about this man named Pangolin.
For example, he held the alliance's offensive troops for a full month with his own strength and injured thousands of people in the alliance.
For example, hunting alone in a river valley province to kill the mother of claws and cutting off the latter's head.
For example, the record of traveling to Haiya Province, etc.
Now this guy has appeared in the Bharat Province again, and before he comes here, he has done another earth-shaking thing.
Gulion couldn't help but be curious.
This guy who is blocking the car with a mantis arm is planning to get out of trouble this time.
Just as he was staring at the man named Pangolin with interest, someone came to him.
The man pulled open the chair and sat next to him, resting the officer's hat on the table.
Gulion looked slightly sideways, and saw that famous face, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
General McClass?What a rare guest. What kind of wind blows the "chief instructor" of the Bharat Province?
Due to the hilarious performance of the Xilan Empire in a series of fields such as military, economy, diplomacy, etc., McClass, who went to the Bharat Province to be an instructor, was also implicated in the military's reputation.
After all, the Brahmins who swam at the mouth of the Yongliu River were nominally students of Maclaren.
Even if their swimming skills have nothing to do with McClass, they are mainly taught by civil servants in Triumph City, and they cannot get rid of the mark of McClass.
McClane just smiled faintly.
You and one of my friends are very similar.You are as talented, elegant, and capable and infectious as him…I have seen many shadows of him in you.I always argued with him, but I never won.
He was a little embarrassed to be praised, Gulion laughed and said humbly.
Thank you. I appreciate the compliment.
McClane smiled with his legs raised on his knees.
You're welcome...but aren't you curious about who he is.
Gullion said gently.
Then I will ask your friend’s name and recommend it to me next time I go back to Triumph City.
McClan said in an equally gentle tone.
His name is Griffin, just like you, he is also a three-star tenement master.
Hearing Griffin's name, Gulion's face turned cold at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.
What do you mean?Comparing me to a dead person?
dead?McClane looked slightly sideways and looked at him in a slight surprise. General Griffin is a hero who has accepted the state funeral. Are you showing disdain for him?
Gulion's expression froze for a moment, and he kept silent in his mouth, and finally he only felt a half-cold smile.
...Haha, the Eastern Legion turned out to be a war by mouth, and I am ignorant.
He knew about Griffin, and it was said that he suddenly died of a stroke when the Eastern Legion's expeditionary force was at the advantage.
The expeditionary force that lost its commander was forced to accept the ceasefire agreement proposed by the alliance and enterprises, and regretfully ceasefire before the war was about to expand.
The Triumph announced the victory of the Eastern Legion Expeditionary Force, and Griffin eventually accepted the glorious state funeral as a general.
No matter how he judged Riffin himself, that honor was not something he could laugh at.
The only thing that was embarrassed when it was spread was probably him.
Looking at the defeated Gullion, McClane said with a faint smile.
...Please don't get me wrong, General Gulyon, I don't mean to quarrel with you.
Gulion laughed and turned his eyes to the defendant's dock in the distance.
I heard that pangolin was promoted by you personally?
McClan nodded slightly.
That's right, during the Luoxia War, his direct superior was Colway, and both of them were my subordinates.
Hearing this sentence, Gulion immediately said softly as if he had seized some opportunity.
Tsk, it's a pity... But I'm not surprised at all. I can only say what kind of bosses lead to what kind of subordinates. It seems that the civil servant group has not taught him well.
The ridicule in the words was obvious.
However, when McClane heard this, he laughed instead of anger and laughed openly.
I also feel that those civil servants can't teach him anything, and let him follow them is a pity... But even so, I am quite proud of being able to bring out such an excellent subordinate, and he did not disappoint my expectations for him.
excellent?
Gullion raised his eyebrows in a little surprise, glanced at McClan and asked with interest.
Do you think he still has a chance to turn the tables?
A turnaround?McClane also looked at him sideways and said with a smile, General Gulyon, you can say this after you win.
Gulion curled his lips disapproved and moved his eyes away from the hard-mouthed guy.
Let's say this when you win?
joke!
The whole court was his guy, what could that guy who wasn't even a Willant guy win!
Seeing that Gullion didn't say anything, McClass stopped talking, but just looked at the court not far away with a smile.
Both of them were focused in the center of the court, waiting for the solemn trial to officially begin.
The not-to-date ceremony ended. With the slight sound of a wooden hammer, the representative of the prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock piled up the documents on the table and declared in an impassioned tone.
Pangolins and commanders!On behalf of the Southern Legion and all the Willant people, I sue you!
The Xifan Port tragedy is vivid in my mind, and even on the stone brick under my feet, the blood of the Willant people is sprinkled here... Three thousand people!More than three thousand people were slaughtered by criminals!But these murderers are still at large!He even sat on the throne of our allies in a monkey-like manner!
And you!What did you do, who were awarded the glory of the Willant people by us?
The prosecutor glanced at the judge, glanced at the crowded jury table behind him, and then looked at the pangolin standing on the dock, and said righteously.
When we fight for the fate of the Willant people, you arbitrarily represent the Willant people of Triumph City to acknowledge the legal status of a brutal, dirty, and illegal regime that slaughtered the Willant people!
This is not only a betrayal of Triumph City, but also a betrayal of the Legion, all the Willant people, and even the Marshal!
This is an unforgivable sin!Thank you for the mercy of the law, we have forgiven your death sentence!However, we will deprive you of honor, honorary status and military rank, and sentence you to indefinite imprisonment.
You will repent in a prison without windows, watch the consequences of your appeasement disappear in the flames of justice, and spend the rest of your life regretting in the darkness... This will be the best punishment for you.
After the representative of the prosecutor finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows provocatively towards the Honorary Willant.
However, the Battlefield Atmosphere Group did not look at him, but just looked at the judge standing in court, waiting for his own round.
The judge did not look at him, nor the plaintiff, but just gently knocked on the wooden hammer.
quiet!It is my responsibility to rule the criminal responsibility, and the plaintiff only needs to state the defendant's criminal facts.
As if he realized his mistake, the prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock smiled and explained.
Sorry, I was so excited... Please understand my anger towards the traitor as a Willant.
Then please understand the solemnity of the court.
Although the result of the trial was a foregone conclusion, the chief judge still said this, and then looked at the man named Pangolin and said in a process.
...So, just like the statement of the appealing party, do you have anything else to say?
The Battlefield Atmosphere Group originally didn't want to make unnecessary defenses.
First of all, he knew it was useless.
The judge and the plaintiff are both General Gulyon, and they can judge as much as they want. It is nothing more than a conversation between the upper and lower parts of the body.
Secondly, he is indeed not very good at talking, and he does not understand the law of the army at all. If he says too much, he will easily make mistakes.
It is best to not plead guilty and then shut up.
If he can't get to the court in Triumph City, no matter how much he says, it will be a waste of time, and it will be nothing more than a humiliation.
Just like this, the court did not even arrange a defense lawyer for him.
But just as he was about to fool the story skip, he caught a worried face from the jury...
never mind.
It is rare to wait for three days of resurrection, and it is not his style to let others decide his life and death.
The battlefield atmosphere group was silent for a while, and finally decided to work hard. So after a moment of emotion brewing, he looked up at the judge and said calmly.
Mr. Judge, I have nothing to say.
The chief judge was stunned.
The same was true for the other four judges sitting on the court, exchanging surprise gazes.
There were whispering sounds in the jury table in the distance, and he didn't seem to expect that he wouldn't even bother to make excuses.
Penny stared in surprise, wishing she could climb over the fence and rush up to wake him up.
The thousand-man commander Ross narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly he couldn't see through the man.
General Gullion cast victory at General McClan and wrote everything he wanted to say in his eyes.
As for McClass, he was indifferent and just looked at the calm guy with a smile.
This guy is definitely not an ordinary person to be able to go deep into danger alone and convince Abusaike to rebel.
The good show has just begun.
This guy came back with the head of the Mother of Dead Claws, but he also had this expression.
The prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock was like General Gulyon, with a victory expression on his face.
It seems that the defendant has nothing to say, and I think we can make a judgment.
The main judge calmed down and said, staring at the battlefield atmosphere group standing in the dock.
Do you mean to confess?
The warrior said neither humble nor arrogantly.
I don't mean that.
He paused, and he said again.
However, I don’t think I have any obligation to explain to a group of guys who only use their own desires and treat their lives as bargaining chips.
It’s not me who should stand here, but them!
He did not name the guy, but the words were clearly stated, nothing more than those who were sitting in the jury seat waiting for him to explain.
At least some of them!
Just as he finished speaking, the jury seat was in an uproar.
The officers of the Southern Legion stood up from their chairs one after another, as if they were furious.
Most of them are ten or centurions, and some non-commissioned officers or soldiers.
They are not only young, but also full of energy.
Faced with the cruel provocation, they cursed back without hesitation... This is also one of the traditions of the Willant people.
What do you mean by this guy!
What does it mean to use the lives of our compatriots as bargaining chips for your own selfish desires!
Isn’t it you, the civil servants who abandon the lives of your compatriots?
The lackey of civil servants!Pooh!
A cowardly and incompetent thing!
Sent him to death!
quiet!quiet!
The chief judge knocked the gavel in his hand hard, signaling the people on the jury to be quiet.
The warrior stood in the dock like nothing was wrong, bathing in the surprise gaze of the prosecutor beside him, turning a deaf ear to the anger behind him.
When the court finally calmed down, the chief judge stared at the pangolin in anger and said.
Pangolin, please pay attention to your words!During the trial, this court will refer to the opinions of the jury table at its discretion. All irrelevant charges you make in court will only aggravate your crime.
Unrelated accusations!
The warrior stared at the main judge intently, repeated his words, and then turned to face the jury table. The originally calm expression was strangely angry at this moment.
When I went alone to search for the truth in the heart of the Heavenly King Army, what are you who stand up doing?Exchange fire with unarmed civilians?
The sound echoed in the empty hall, suppressing the noise in the audience for a moment.
Everyone was silent, with their eyes staring at him tightly.
Two hundred people!
The Battlefield Atmosphere Group raised two fingers, one index finger and one middle finger.
At that moment, he looked like a real Willant, proudly raising his head and nose bridge.
Two hundred civilians... They were frightened and afraid to make noises on the rebel land, and they were right under your nose!And what did you do?Revenge for the three thousand dead?You know where the person who really killed them is, but you still can't move!
The prosecutor standing aside couldn't listen and coughed and wanted to interrupt.
I have to make a fuss... It's not that the Southern Legion did not do anything, but because the survivors of that catastrophe concealed part of the truth, we don't know that there are still people alive
Shut up!
The warrior suddenly roared, and his fierce eyes stunned the prosecutor. His feet seemed to have roots and his calves trembled slightly.
The eyes were like a fierce beast, and his bloodthirsty aura made him unable to say a word.
He swallowed unconsciously, and a hint of panic was written in his shaken eyes.
It's different from him who is messing with words in court.
This guy is a real soldier, a fierce ghost crawling out of the sea of corpses!
...I didn't let you speak, and the judge didn't let you interrupt, so I asked you to close your mouth. Now is my time to speak.The warrior suddenly let out a lighter voice and said this.
The pressure on his shoulder suddenly relaxed, and the prosecutor nodded nervously, but soon realized that he was being led away by the nose, and then glared at him in annoyance.
But the warrior stopped looking at him and once again faced the packed jury seat.
However, this time he looked at the standing soldiers and officers.
He looked at Yarman, his wife Margaret, and many people like the couple, as well as their children.
Have you seen it?Just like the prosecutor beside me, a civilian who has never been on the battlefield, I can only stare at him and make his calves tremble like a wall clock, and I can't help but kneel down at me.
I tell you, this is power!Even a person as small as me can easily control the power.And I am just a commander, and at most I am an awakened person.
In the face of this uncontrolled force, even the most dazzling truth can only be silent. I don’t think that the silence of being forced to surrender is a sin...it is more like a shame!
And, it's your shame!The Battlefield Atmosphere Group pointed to the standing officers.
Some people couldn't help but sit down just now, but there were still many people standing.
You keep saying that you are always loyal to the Marshal, always loyal to the Legion, and always loyal to the Willant people, but you make your compatriots fear you, and then make more people fear your compatriots, and use their fear to seize your own interests... Are I wrong?This is the truest you!
Two fires were lit at Xifan Port, one was lit by a group of self-proclaimed unorganized thugs, and the other was lit by a group of organized thugs... Why did the first fire burn out the Heavenly King Army?
Where did the weapons of the Heavenly King Army come from, and why did so many equipment appear in their hands?Who is delivering supplies to them?
And why!Why are those two hundred people just under your nose, but you would rather massacre civilians in the local area than take a step forward!
Yes, you don't know that they are in the Earl of Sharma's estate, as the prosecutor said, but what are your legs, eyes and hands used for?Is it a decoration?
Why can I find them?But you can't find it!Have you ever done this before sending more gunpowder to Xifan Port?
What exactly are you doing here!Answer me!Answer in my eyes!!
The angry voice was like a tsunami, spreading in circles, crashing fearlessly into the group of officers glaring at him.
Although the officers standing in the jury table still had expressionless expressions, the eyes of the people sitting next to them changed significantly.
Margaret couldn't help but cover her mouth, her eyes filled with tears of excitement, and she put her forehead on her husband's shoulders.
Finally someone expressed the fear in her heart that night.
Finally someone expressed the fear her child had faced.
Before they were sure that they were no longer important, they didn't even dare to come out of that manor and tell their children that they were actually alive.
That's precisely because of fear.
She didn't want to die for unknown reasons and bring all the truth into the grave.
Even if she only saw a vague shadow, she could not even be called evidence...
Yarman put his hand on her shoulder, hugged his wife tightly, and supported the man standing in the dock with a firm look.
A pair of eyes gathered into a stream, and streams eventually formed a river.
A vast force is taking shape!
That was the power that once supported the Willant people and allowed them to break free from the shackles on their bodies!
Penny's eyes were filled with tears of excitement, and she couldn't help but cheer for him.
The Willant people have their own backbone.
They are not the kind of cartilage without their own position.
The sword of truth is emitting a dazzling light at this moment!
She could feel the boiling emotions and atmosphere at the scene, which made the maggots hiding in the gutter hide their foreheads in shame and move their pupils away.
Those dirty things dare not answer these questions.
They didn't even dare to admit that the problem existed, they only dared to say some scattered words after the storm passed, or talk about him around.
The prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock was sweating profusely and tried to distract himself by sorting out the documents in his hands.
What can he say?
The evidence this guy has may be much more exciting than the few pieces of paper in his hand!
He no longer dared to face the crowded jury table, nor even look at the judges who were already prepared for the verdict on his teammates.
More and more eyes looked at the officers of the Southern Legion, making the guys who were still standing still unable to hold back their expressions, and finally couldn't hold on.
What they couldn't accept was that not only those citizens, but even their subordinates hesitated to look at them...
Why not attack the Heavenly King Army, but guard the unarmed civilians to vent their anger!
Pete, who was gritting his toothpick, also wanted to know, and he stared at his centurion intently.
After the centurion sat down, he looked at his boss's boss, Ross, who was speechless in the north.
Why?
He clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could hammer it on the table.
You guys are talking ah!
Say something Ah!
Looking at the court where the atmosphere was completely turned, McClan smiled and patted his hands gently.
Haha, wonderful.
He is worthy of being a subordinate promoted by himself.
He has indeed grown a lot.
McClane could see that the guy actually wanted to give up for a moment, but he eventually changed his mind.
This is the right choice.
If even he gives up on himself, then no matter how hard those who protect him work, it will make no sense.
At least at this moment, he has the value of living, and it was his own efforts.
Unlike McClan who was smiling and applauding, Gulion, who had previously looked at him with great confidence, was panicked at this moment.
He didn't know what plots the senior leaders of the Southern Legion had, but he could also guess that the Rebellion of the King was not a complete accident.
Or, behind that accident, there was an invisible hand that fueled the fire.
That may be his superior, or his superior, or even the commander of the legion who gave him the highest command of the combat area of the Bharat Province!
However, at this moment, this idiot actually threw this secret into the court of public trial!
Is he crazy?!
Didn’t the civil servant group make small moves behind the scenes?
Seeing the self-destruction truck hit, a cold sweat broke through Gulion's eyebrows.
He originally intended to use this trial to humiliate the group of civil servants who were dragging their legs, but he did not want to be rebel and let him shoot himself in the foot.
He stretched out his trembling index finger and took off his hat and threw it on the table in a mess.
This is the secret code he agreed to the judge.
He must stop the trial!
Stop that idiot from continuing to talk!
The warrior had no intention of continuing, but just looked at the hot court.
It didn't look like a solemn court, but it looked a bit like a vegetable market.
However, his goal has also been achieved.
The court cannot completely ignore the opinions of the jury table, and the originally undisputed judgment has at least been controversial enough at this moment.
He actually has no conclusive evidence for many things. The Southern Legion will not leave too many handles. It is enough to point out doubts as a person who throws bricks and attracts jade.
As long as the voice of doubt exists, it makes sense for him to do this.
Next, as he said, he would appeal to Triumph City step by step, and go all the way with the hope he shoulders!
Well said!!Yarman stood up first, and like the officers who stood up ignoring the court discipline, shouting at the prosecutor in the plaintiff's dock, answering his questions!
The sounds of response come one after another, and are deafening!
That's right!Answer his question!
What are you here for!Should we come to save us or prepare for invasion!
Where are you when we need you?
Why don’t you guys save my mom!And, why are so many weapons placed in the port!
Little Ruby, who was holding the guardrail with both hands, was also ignited by the flames in her heart, and she shouted out with her bright eyes.
Although the slender sound did not stir up a trace of waves and was easily submerged in the surging sound waves, she still made her own voice.
She will not forget the fear of that day.
Otherwise all courage will lose its meaning.
The officers who stood up had all sat down. On the one hand, it was a warning from their superiors' eyes, and on the other hand, they really had no courage to continue standing and face the questioning.
Pete's eyes were completely disappointed, he spit out the toothpick in his mouth, cursed hard, "Damn it, coward," he clenched his fists and endured the shame.
He was not afraid to fight a war with the alliance in a dignified manner.
But this shame made him unable to raise his head.
quiet!quiet!
Looking at the noisy scene, the sweaty judge raised the wooden hammer in his hand and was about to knock it but stopped.
He noticed the hat in front of General Gulyon and the urged eyes.
However, it was precisely because of this that the wooden hammer in his hand was hung in the air and could not be knocked down for a long time.
He knew very well General Gulyon's hint.
But he also knew very well what it would mean once he did so.
This is not just a controversial judgment, but a complete contradiction to people's hearts. He can't even think of how to make a judgment.
Can he still tell people that although there are doubts in this case, this judge is going to convict him?
The bullets shot at the hero cannot erase the hero's aura, but will instead make him immortal, while the person who fires the gun will be nailed to the pillar of shame and become eternal shame and clown.
The real clown dared not shoot, so he handed the trigger to him, hoping that he would be the evil man.
This coward...
You are a three-star ten thousand men!
The chief judge gritted his teeth and struggled for a long time, but finally he hit the wooden hammer in his hand hard.
However, his ruling did not follow General Gulyon's wishes, and even brought obvious disappointment to the latter's eyes.
This court made a verdict, because the prosecutor did not submit sufficient materials, it was impossible to assert that the defendant was guilty...
Since the prosecutor has proposed that the Pangolin's captain betrayed the Marshal, the Legion, and the Willant people... Then let the Marshal, let the Court of Triumph City, and let all the Willant people come to trial him together.
He paused, and he said again.
The court in Xifan Port is too small to be tried such a big case.
Adjourn the court!
After his words fell, warm applause broke out in the jury!
Yarman's eyes were flashing with excitement, and his hands were slapped red.
Not just him.
There was also Margaret standing beside him, all the other surviving people, and those who came here from the distant colonies... Except for the officers of the Southern Legion, almost everyone present stood up and applauded!
Including General McClan.
This is not only a victory for the Pangolin, but also a victory for all of them... Even if they are still far from the final victory!
But at least at this moment, they did not choose to remain silent and let the out-of-control power do evil, but bravely stood up and defended the power in their hands!
That's the right to know the truth!
Oh oh oh!
Like the adults around, little Ruby was cheering excitedly, and her whole body was hung on the railing, her calves swaying in the air.
She didn't understand so many difficult truths. She just thought that the brother named Pangolin was so handsome that he made those people speechless.
certainly
He is far behind his parents!
Bathed in the boiling applause, the main judge nodded slightly, accepted the cheers of the people in shame, and then left the court with the other four judges.
General Gulyon clenched his fist silently, his teeth clattering.
At this moment, an annoying voice suddenly came from the side.
I think it is better for you to put the overall situation first. Leave the big guys to worry about the big guys... What do you think?It’s easy to get a stroke like my friend if I suddenly gets involved.
General McClass, who had stopped applauding, looked at him with a winning smile on his face.
General Gulyon glanced at him, got up from his seat with a cold face, picked up the hat on the table and put it on.
I can't be as good as a leader.
Well, I don't think you are like the kind of person who is not good-looking... Also, you're beautifully beaten.
McClane also picked up his hat and put it on, and smiled and stretched out his right hand.
General Gulyon did not shake his hand, and he walked away without even looking back.
At the same time, the battle atmosphere group, standing in the cheers, finally gently lowered the clenched fists and the heart that was lifted to the throat.
He has never done such awesome things in his life.
This is much more difficult than facing the Mother of Dead Claws!
His chest was gently undulating, looking at the survivors who applauded him, a smile of melting ice and snow suddenly appeared on his tense face.
But to be honest, this experience is quite interesting.
It would be a loss if he didn't sell this game for ten thousand yuan!
The marble walls are carved with balances that symbolize justice, and under the majestic dome are displayed circles of seats.
There were five judges sitting on the trial table, all in their fifties and sixties. The wrinkled faces were full of solemnity and looked respectful.
The wide jury seat was also full.
A small number of them were officers of the Southern Army, while most of the others were local Willant citizens of Xifan Port, or just happened to pass by the local Willant merchants.
People were extremely enthusiastic about this trial, and some even came from Yong Nightang or other colonies, not for the business opportunities brought by the upcoming army of 300,000, but for the court to take a look.
And the reason why people are so interested is not only because of the identity of the defendant, but also because of the charges brought out in this trial, which involve three counts of betrayal of the Willant people, betrayal of the Legion, and betrayal of the Marshal.
So many big hats are extremely rare in the history of the Legion.
Especially this guy is still an honorary Willant who has been promoted through military achievements.
Everyone sitting in the jury table became even more curious!
It is said that the court charged a lot of money just by selling tickets to the jury seats!
Looking at the man being taken to court, Penny, who was sitting in the jury table, couldn't help but clench her fists, and sweat oozed out of her palms.
In the other corner of the jury table, a man wearing an officer's hat also sat in the auditor's seat.
He looked young, with a bulge in the middle of the bridge of his nose, and his eyes were firm and cold, and he looked at the pangolin who was taken to the dock with interest, like an eagle overlooking his prey.
This person is Gulyon, the commander-in-chief of the combat area of the Bharat Province, and the three-star tenement of the Southern Legion!
Before coming to Xifan Port, he heard a lot of heroic deeds about this man named Pangolin.
For example, he held the alliance's offensive troops for a full month with his own strength and injured thousands of people in the alliance.
For example, hunting alone in a river valley province to kill the mother of claws and cutting off the latter's head.
For example, the record of traveling to Haiya Province, etc.
Now this guy has appeared in the Bharat Province again, and before he comes here, he has done another earth-shaking thing.
Gulion couldn't help but be curious.
This guy who is blocking the car with a mantis arm is planning to get out of trouble this time.
Just as he was staring at the man named Pangolin with interest, someone came to him.
The man pulled open the chair and sat next to him, resting the officer's hat on the table.
Gulion looked slightly sideways, and saw that famous face, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
General McClass?What a rare guest. What kind of wind blows the "chief instructor" of the Bharat Province?
Due to the hilarious performance of the Xilan Empire in a series of fields such as military, economy, diplomacy, etc., McClass, who went to the Bharat Province to be an instructor, was also implicated in the military's reputation.
After all, the Brahmins who swam at the mouth of the Yongliu River were nominally students of Maclaren.
Even if their swimming skills have nothing to do with McClass, they are mainly taught by civil servants in Triumph City, and they cannot get rid of the mark of McClass.
McClane just smiled faintly.
You and one of my friends are very similar.You are as talented, elegant, and capable and infectious as him…I have seen many shadows of him in you.I always argued with him, but I never won.
He was a little embarrassed to be praised, Gulion laughed and said humbly.
Thank you. I appreciate the compliment.
McClane smiled with his legs raised on his knees.
You're welcome...but aren't you curious about who he is.
Gullion said gently.
Then I will ask your friend’s name and recommend it to me next time I go back to Triumph City.
McClan said in an equally gentle tone.
His name is Griffin, just like you, he is also a three-star tenement master.
Hearing Griffin's name, Gulion's face turned cold at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.
What do you mean?Comparing me to a dead person?
dead?McClane looked slightly sideways and looked at him in a slight surprise. General Griffin is a hero who has accepted the state funeral. Are you showing disdain for him?
Gulion's expression froze for a moment, and he kept silent in his mouth, and finally he only felt a half-cold smile.
...Haha, the Eastern Legion turned out to be a war by mouth, and I am ignorant.
He knew about Griffin, and it was said that he suddenly died of a stroke when the Eastern Legion's expeditionary force was at the advantage.
The expeditionary force that lost its commander was forced to accept the ceasefire agreement proposed by the alliance and enterprises, and regretfully ceasefire before the war was about to expand.
The Triumph announced the victory of the Eastern Legion Expeditionary Force, and Griffin eventually accepted the glorious state funeral as a general.
No matter how he judged Riffin himself, that honor was not something he could laugh at.
The only thing that was embarrassed when it was spread was probably him.
Looking at the defeated Gullion, McClane said with a faint smile.
...Please don't get me wrong, General Gulyon, I don't mean to quarrel with you.
Gulion laughed and turned his eyes to the defendant's dock in the distance.
I heard that pangolin was promoted by you personally?
McClan nodded slightly.
That's right, during the Luoxia War, his direct superior was Colway, and both of them were my subordinates.
Hearing this sentence, Gulion immediately said softly as if he had seized some opportunity.
Tsk, it's a pity... But I'm not surprised at all. I can only say what kind of bosses lead to what kind of subordinates. It seems that the civil servant group has not taught him well.
The ridicule in the words was obvious.
However, when McClane heard this, he laughed instead of anger and laughed openly.
I also feel that those civil servants can't teach him anything, and let him follow them is a pity... But even so, I am quite proud of being able to bring out such an excellent subordinate, and he did not disappoint my expectations for him.
excellent?
Gullion raised his eyebrows in a little surprise, glanced at McClan and asked with interest.
Do you think he still has a chance to turn the tables?
A turnaround?McClane also looked at him sideways and said with a smile, General Gulyon, you can say this after you win.
Gulion curled his lips disapproved and moved his eyes away from the hard-mouthed guy.
Let's say this when you win?
joke!
The whole court was his guy, what could that guy who wasn't even a Willant guy win!
Seeing that Gullion didn't say anything, McClass stopped talking, but just looked at the court not far away with a smile.
Both of them were focused in the center of the court, waiting for the solemn trial to officially begin.
The not-to-date ceremony ended. With the slight sound of a wooden hammer, the representative of the prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock piled up the documents on the table and declared in an impassioned tone.
Pangolins and commanders!On behalf of the Southern Legion and all the Willant people, I sue you!
The Xifan Port tragedy is vivid in my mind, and even on the stone brick under my feet, the blood of the Willant people is sprinkled here... Three thousand people!More than three thousand people were slaughtered by criminals!But these murderers are still at large!He even sat on the throne of our allies in a monkey-like manner!
And you!What did you do, who were awarded the glory of the Willant people by us?
The prosecutor glanced at the judge, glanced at the crowded jury table behind him, and then looked at the pangolin standing on the dock, and said righteously.
When we fight for the fate of the Willant people, you arbitrarily represent the Willant people of Triumph City to acknowledge the legal status of a brutal, dirty, and illegal regime that slaughtered the Willant people!
This is not only a betrayal of Triumph City, but also a betrayal of the Legion, all the Willant people, and even the Marshal!
This is an unforgivable sin!Thank you for the mercy of the law, we have forgiven your death sentence!However, we will deprive you of honor, honorary status and military rank, and sentence you to indefinite imprisonment.
You will repent in a prison without windows, watch the consequences of your appeasement disappear in the flames of justice, and spend the rest of your life regretting in the darkness... This will be the best punishment for you.
After the representative of the prosecutor finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows provocatively towards the Honorary Willant.
However, the Battlefield Atmosphere Group did not look at him, but just looked at the judge standing in court, waiting for his own round.
The judge did not look at him, nor the plaintiff, but just gently knocked on the wooden hammer.
quiet!It is my responsibility to rule the criminal responsibility, and the plaintiff only needs to state the defendant's criminal facts.
As if he realized his mistake, the prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock smiled and explained.
Sorry, I was so excited... Please understand my anger towards the traitor as a Willant.
Then please understand the solemnity of the court.
Although the result of the trial was a foregone conclusion, the chief judge still said this, and then looked at the man named Pangolin and said in a process.
...So, just like the statement of the appealing party, do you have anything else to say?
The Battlefield Atmosphere Group originally didn't want to make unnecessary defenses.
First of all, he knew it was useless.
The judge and the plaintiff are both General Gulyon, and they can judge as much as they want. It is nothing more than a conversation between the upper and lower parts of the body.
Secondly, he is indeed not very good at talking, and he does not understand the law of the army at all. If he says too much, he will easily make mistakes.
It is best to not plead guilty and then shut up.
If he can't get to the court in Triumph City, no matter how much he says, it will be a waste of time, and it will be nothing more than a humiliation.
Just like this, the court did not even arrange a defense lawyer for him.
But just as he was about to fool the story skip, he caught a worried face from the jury...
never mind.
It is rare to wait for three days of resurrection, and it is not his style to let others decide his life and death.
The battlefield atmosphere group was silent for a while, and finally decided to work hard. So after a moment of emotion brewing, he looked up at the judge and said calmly.
Mr. Judge, I have nothing to say.
The chief judge was stunned.
The same was true for the other four judges sitting on the court, exchanging surprise gazes.
There were whispering sounds in the jury table in the distance, and he didn't seem to expect that he wouldn't even bother to make excuses.
Penny stared in surprise, wishing she could climb over the fence and rush up to wake him up.
The thousand-man commander Ross narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly he couldn't see through the man.
General Gullion cast victory at General McClan and wrote everything he wanted to say in his eyes.
As for McClass, he was indifferent and just looked at the calm guy with a smile.
This guy is definitely not an ordinary person to be able to go deep into danger alone and convince Abusaike to rebel.
The good show has just begun.
This guy came back with the head of the Mother of Dead Claws, but he also had this expression.
The prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock was like General Gulyon, with a victory expression on his face.
It seems that the defendant has nothing to say, and I think we can make a judgment.
The main judge calmed down and said, staring at the battlefield atmosphere group standing in the dock.
Do you mean to confess?
The warrior said neither humble nor arrogantly.
I don't mean that.
He paused, and he said again.
However, I don’t think I have any obligation to explain to a group of guys who only use their own desires and treat their lives as bargaining chips.
It’s not me who should stand here, but them!
He did not name the guy, but the words were clearly stated, nothing more than those who were sitting in the jury seat waiting for him to explain.
At least some of them!
Just as he finished speaking, the jury seat was in an uproar.
The officers of the Southern Legion stood up from their chairs one after another, as if they were furious.
Most of them are ten or centurions, and some non-commissioned officers or soldiers.
They are not only young, but also full of energy.
Faced with the cruel provocation, they cursed back without hesitation... This is also one of the traditions of the Willant people.
What do you mean by this guy!
What does it mean to use the lives of our compatriots as bargaining chips for your own selfish desires!
Isn’t it you, the civil servants who abandon the lives of your compatriots?
The lackey of civil servants!Pooh!
A cowardly and incompetent thing!
Sent him to death!
quiet!quiet!
The chief judge knocked the gavel in his hand hard, signaling the people on the jury to be quiet.
The warrior stood in the dock like nothing was wrong, bathing in the surprise gaze of the prosecutor beside him, turning a deaf ear to the anger behind him.
When the court finally calmed down, the chief judge stared at the pangolin in anger and said.
Pangolin, please pay attention to your words!During the trial, this court will refer to the opinions of the jury table at its discretion. All irrelevant charges you make in court will only aggravate your crime.
Unrelated accusations!
The warrior stared at the main judge intently, repeated his words, and then turned to face the jury table. The originally calm expression was strangely angry at this moment.
When I went alone to search for the truth in the heart of the Heavenly King Army, what are you who stand up doing?Exchange fire with unarmed civilians?
The sound echoed in the empty hall, suppressing the noise in the audience for a moment.
Everyone was silent, with their eyes staring at him tightly.
Two hundred people!
The Battlefield Atmosphere Group raised two fingers, one index finger and one middle finger.
At that moment, he looked like a real Willant, proudly raising his head and nose bridge.
Two hundred civilians... They were frightened and afraid to make noises on the rebel land, and they were right under your nose!And what did you do?Revenge for the three thousand dead?You know where the person who really killed them is, but you still can't move!
The prosecutor standing aside couldn't listen and coughed and wanted to interrupt.
I have to make a fuss... It's not that the Southern Legion did not do anything, but because the survivors of that catastrophe concealed part of the truth, we don't know that there are still people alive
Shut up!
The warrior suddenly roared, and his fierce eyes stunned the prosecutor. His feet seemed to have roots and his calves trembled slightly.
The eyes were like a fierce beast, and his bloodthirsty aura made him unable to say a word.
He swallowed unconsciously, and a hint of panic was written in his shaken eyes.
It's different from him who is messing with words in court.
This guy is a real soldier, a fierce ghost crawling out of the sea of corpses!
...I didn't let you speak, and the judge didn't let you interrupt, so I asked you to close your mouth. Now is my time to speak.The warrior suddenly let out a lighter voice and said this.
The pressure on his shoulder suddenly relaxed, and the prosecutor nodded nervously, but soon realized that he was being led away by the nose, and then glared at him in annoyance.
But the warrior stopped looking at him and once again faced the packed jury seat.
However, this time he looked at the standing soldiers and officers.
He looked at Yarman, his wife Margaret, and many people like the couple, as well as their children.
Have you seen it?Just like the prosecutor beside me, a civilian who has never been on the battlefield, I can only stare at him and make his calves tremble like a wall clock, and I can't help but kneel down at me.
I tell you, this is power!Even a person as small as me can easily control the power.And I am just a commander, and at most I am an awakened person.
In the face of this uncontrolled force, even the most dazzling truth can only be silent. I don’t think that the silence of being forced to surrender is a sin...it is more like a shame!
And, it's your shame!The Battlefield Atmosphere Group pointed to the standing officers.
Some people couldn't help but sit down just now, but there were still many people standing.
You keep saying that you are always loyal to the Marshal, always loyal to the Legion, and always loyal to the Willant people, but you make your compatriots fear you, and then make more people fear your compatriots, and use their fear to seize your own interests... Are I wrong?This is the truest you!
Two fires were lit at Xifan Port, one was lit by a group of self-proclaimed unorganized thugs, and the other was lit by a group of organized thugs... Why did the first fire burn out the Heavenly King Army?
Where did the weapons of the Heavenly King Army come from, and why did so many equipment appear in their hands?Who is delivering supplies to them?
And why!Why are those two hundred people just under your nose, but you would rather massacre civilians in the local area than take a step forward!
Yes, you don't know that they are in the Earl of Sharma's estate, as the prosecutor said, but what are your legs, eyes and hands used for?Is it a decoration?
Why can I find them?But you can't find it!Have you ever done this before sending more gunpowder to Xifan Port?
What exactly are you doing here!Answer me!Answer in my eyes!!
The angry voice was like a tsunami, spreading in circles, crashing fearlessly into the group of officers glaring at him.
Although the officers standing in the jury table still had expressionless expressions, the eyes of the people sitting next to them changed significantly.
Margaret couldn't help but cover her mouth, her eyes filled with tears of excitement, and she put her forehead on her husband's shoulders.
Finally someone expressed the fear in her heart that night.
Finally someone expressed the fear her child had faced.
Before they were sure that they were no longer important, they didn't even dare to come out of that manor and tell their children that they were actually alive.
That's precisely because of fear.
She didn't want to die for unknown reasons and bring all the truth into the grave.
Even if she only saw a vague shadow, she could not even be called evidence...
Yarman put his hand on her shoulder, hugged his wife tightly, and supported the man standing in the dock with a firm look.
A pair of eyes gathered into a stream, and streams eventually formed a river.
A vast force is taking shape!
That was the power that once supported the Willant people and allowed them to break free from the shackles on their bodies!
Penny's eyes were filled with tears of excitement, and she couldn't help but cheer for him.
The Willant people have their own backbone.
They are not the kind of cartilage without their own position.
The sword of truth is emitting a dazzling light at this moment!
She could feel the boiling emotions and atmosphere at the scene, which made the maggots hiding in the gutter hide their foreheads in shame and move their pupils away.
Those dirty things dare not answer these questions.
They didn't even dare to admit that the problem existed, they only dared to say some scattered words after the storm passed, or talk about him around.
The prosecutor standing in the plaintiff's dock was sweating profusely and tried to distract himself by sorting out the documents in his hands.
What can he say?
The evidence this guy has may be much more exciting than the few pieces of paper in his hand!
He no longer dared to face the crowded jury table, nor even look at the judges who were already prepared for the verdict on his teammates.
More and more eyes looked at the officers of the Southern Legion, making the guys who were still standing still unable to hold back their expressions, and finally couldn't hold on.
What they couldn't accept was that not only those citizens, but even their subordinates hesitated to look at them...
Why not attack the Heavenly King Army, but guard the unarmed civilians to vent their anger!
Pete, who was gritting his toothpick, also wanted to know, and he stared at his centurion intently.
After the centurion sat down, he looked at his boss's boss, Ross, who was speechless in the north.
Why?
He clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could hammer it on the table.
You guys are talking ah!
Say something Ah!
Looking at the court where the atmosphere was completely turned, McClan smiled and patted his hands gently.
Haha, wonderful.
He is worthy of being a subordinate promoted by himself.
He has indeed grown a lot.
McClane could see that the guy actually wanted to give up for a moment, but he eventually changed his mind.
This is the right choice.
If even he gives up on himself, then no matter how hard those who protect him work, it will make no sense.
At least at this moment, he has the value of living, and it was his own efforts.
Unlike McClan who was smiling and applauding, Gulion, who had previously looked at him with great confidence, was panicked at this moment.
He didn't know what plots the senior leaders of the Southern Legion had, but he could also guess that the Rebellion of the King was not a complete accident.
Or, behind that accident, there was an invisible hand that fueled the fire.
That may be his superior, or his superior, or even the commander of the legion who gave him the highest command of the combat area of the Bharat Province!
However, at this moment, this idiot actually threw this secret into the court of public trial!
Is he crazy?!
Didn’t the civil servant group make small moves behind the scenes?
Seeing the self-destruction truck hit, a cold sweat broke through Gulion's eyebrows.
He originally intended to use this trial to humiliate the group of civil servants who were dragging their legs, but he did not want to be rebel and let him shoot himself in the foot.
He stretched out his trembling index finger and took off his hat and threw it on the table in a mess.
This is the secret code he agreed to the judge.
He must stop the trial!
Stop that idiot from continuing to talk!
The warrior had no intention of continuing, but just looked at the hot court.
It didn't look like a solemn court, but it looked a bit like a vegetable market.
However, his goal has also been achieved.
The court cannot completely ignore the opinions of the jury table, and the originally undisputed judgment has at least been controversial enough at this moment.
He actually has no conclusive evidence for many things. The Southern Legion will not leave too many handles. It is enough to point out doubts as a person who throws bricks and attracts jade.
As long as the voice of doubt exists, it makes sense for him to do this.
Next, as he said, he would appeal to Triumph City step by step, and go all the way with the hope he shoulders!
Well said!!Yarman stood up first, and like the officers who stood up ignoring the court discipline, shouting at the prosecutor in the plaintiff's dock, answering his questions!
The sounds of response come one after another, and are deafening!
That's right!Answer his question!
What are you here for!Should we come to save us or prepare for invasion!
Where are you when we need you?
Why don’t you guys save my mom!And, why are so many weapons placed in the port!
Little Ruby, who was holding the guardrail with both hands, was also ignited by the flames in her heart, and she shouted out with her bright eyes.
Although the slender sound did not stir up a trace of waves and was easily submerged in the surging sound waves, she still made her own voice.
She will not forget the fear of that day.
Otherwise all courage will lose its meaning.
The officers who stood up had all sat down. On the one hand, it was a warning from their superiors' eyes, and on the other hand, they really had no courage to continue standing and face the questioning.
Pete's eyes were completely disappointed, he spit out the toothpick in his mouth, cursed hard, "Damn it, coward," he clenched his fists and endured the shame.
He was not afraid to fight a war with the alliance in a dignified manner.
But this shame made him unable to raise his head.
quiet!quiet!
Looking at the noisy scene, the sweaty judge raised the wooden hammer in his hand and was about to knock it but stopped.
He noticed the hat in front of General Gulyon and the urged eyes.
However, it was precisely because of this that the wooden hammer in his hand was hung in the air and could not be knocked down for a long time.
He knew very well General Gulyon's hint.
But he also knew very well what it would mean once he did so.
This is not just a controversial judgment, but a complete contradiction to people's hearts. He can't even think of how to make a judgment.
Can he still tell people that although there are doubts in this case, this judge is going to convict him?
The bullets shot at the hero cannot erase the hero's aura, but will instead make him immortal, while the person who fires the gun will be nailed to the pillar of shame and become eternal shame and clown.
The real clown dared not shoot, so he handed the trigger to him, hoping that he would be the evil man.
This coward...
You are a three-star ten thousand men!
The chief judge gritted his teeth and struggled for a long time, but finally he hit the wooden hammer in his hand hard.
However, his ruling did not follow General Gulyon's wishes, and even brought obvious disappointment to the latter's eyes.
This court made a verdict, because the prosecutor did not submit sufficient materials, it was impossible to assert that the defendant was guilty...
Since the prosecutor has proposed that the Pangolin's captain betrayed the Marshal, the Legion, and the Willant people... Then let the Marshal, let the Court of Triumph City, and let all the Willant people come to trial him together.
He paused, and he said again.
The court in Xifan Port is too small to be tried such a big case.
Adjourn the court!
After his words fell, warm applause broke out in the jury!
Yarman's eyes were flashing with excitement, and his hands were slapped red.
Not just him.
There was also Margaret standing beside him, all the other surviving people, and those who came here from the distant colonies... Except for the officers of the Southern Legion, almost everyone present stood up and applauded!
Including General McClan.
This is not only a victory for the Pangolin, but also a victory for all of them... Even if they are still far from the final victory!
But at least at this moment, they did not choose to remain silent and let the out-of-control power do evil, but bravely stood up and defended the power in their hands!
That's the right to know the truth!
Oh oh oh!
Like the adults around, little Ruby was cheering excitedly, and her whole body was hung on the railing, her calves swaying in the air.
She didn't understand so many difficult truths. She just thought that the brother named Pangolin was so handsome that he made those people speechless.
certainly
He is far behind his parents!
Bathed in the boiling applause, the main judge nodded slightly, accepted the cheers of the people in shame, and then left the court with the other four judges.
General Gulyon clenched his fist silently, his teeth clattering.
At this moment, an annoying voice suddenly came from the side.
I think it is better for you to put the overall situation first. Leave the big guys to worry about the big guys... What do you think?It’s easy to get a stroke like my friend if I suddenly gets involved.
General McClass, who had stopped applauding, looked at him with a winning smile on his face.
General Gulyon glanced at him, got up from his seat with a cold face, picked up the hat on the table and put it on.
I can't be as good as a leader.
Well, I don't think you are like the kind of person who is not good-looking... Also, you're beautifully beaten.
McClane also picked up his hat and put it on, and smiled and stretched out his right hand.
General Gulyon did not shake his hand, and he walked away without even looking back.
At the same time, the battle atmosphere group, standing in the cheers, finally gently lowered the clenched fists and the heart that was lifted to the throat.
He has never done such awesome things in his life.
This is much more difficult than facing the Mother of Dead Claws!
His chest was gently undulating, looking at the survivors who applauded him, a smile of melting ice and snow suddenly appeared on his tense face.
But to be honest, this experience is quite interesting.
It would be a loss if he didn't sell this game for ten thousand yuan!
