"Quick report! Quick report!"

"The Sarus Federation suddenly invaded the empire the day before yesterday. At the critical moment, the commander of the Sauron Army led his army to fight against them. They severely defeated the enemy in the Roland Zone and annihilated the invaders."

"Great victory! Great victory!"

A young man wearing a black newsboy cap and an old coat ran all the way on the street, shouting and waving the newspaper in his hand high to attract the attention of pedestrians.

Pedestrians coming and going on the street were shocked by the sudden news and stopped one after another.

There has always been friction between Highland City and the Sarus Federation, and information about this has attracted considerable attention.

"real or fake?!"

A businessman looked shocked, took out a few coins from his pocket and handed them to the boy selling the newspaper.

After holding the newspaper in his hand, the big headline was printed in his eyes.

"In the battle in the Roland area, the cavalry regiment of the Third Army of Peter City was completely wiped out. We only suffered more than a hundred casualties..."

"In addition, this battle also killed Major General Frank, the top ten famous generals of the Sarus Federation and the commander of Peter City's First Army Corps!"

Others listened to the businessman's murmur, and their curiosity was aroused.

Although the friction between Highland City and Peter City has lasted for more than ten years and occurred frequently, there have not been many such large-scale conflicts, and the results have been so great.

"It is said that the key to victory this time was Count Sauron. On the battlefield, Count Sauron first killed Major General Frank and then Major General Boer, completely destroying the enemy's morale!"

The boy selling the newspaper also knew the psychology of his customers well and added fuel to the fire quietly.

"Do you want to know why Count Sauron, who has not even graduated from high school, suddenly went berserk?"

"Why, please tell me quickly?" a middle-aged man dressed in a blue tuxedo urged.

The boy selling newspapers smiled mysteriously and continued:

"One of them is Sauron's father, the previous generation of Earl Thoros. It is said that he..."

"What's down there? What's wrong with him?" The businessman roughly read the war process in the newspaper, put it away in his arms, and was about to leave when he was attracted by the young man's words.

"Tell me, who did you learn this from? Why are you so stained?" complained an aunt next to her.

"Yeah, tell me quickly!"

The young man chuckled. There was no way he could have sex for free. He took out a stack of newspapers from the newspaper basket next to him and said:

"Here is a detailed introduction. If you want to know more, hurry up and buy. The quantity is limited. Buy on a first-come, first-served basis."

Liu Jin, who was behind the crowd, looked intently and saw the newspaper cover written in thick, black fonts:

High school student Count's journey to avenge his father! ! !

She pursed her lips, squeezed in and bought a newspaper. Instead of reading it in a hurry, she stopped a carriage on the roadside, told the driver her destination, sat down and began to read carefully.

Petersburg.

Peter City is a large border city of the Sarus Federation and the economic, military, and cultural center of several surrounding states.

Look up.

There are all mushroom-like ancient buildings, slightly different in height, dotted on both sides of a huge canal.

These buildings date back thousands of years, when Petersburg was the capital of the Principality of Corinthian.

To the east of the canal, among the large black mushroom buildings, there is a tall building with a completely different style. The fifty-foot-tall floor reaches straight into the sky. The exterior wall is made of large pieces of glass, which is dark and shiny, giving people a suffocating shock.

At this time, the discussion center on the top floor of the building.

The atmosphere in the conference room with more than a dozen people was serious and dignified.

Nancy, one of the minutes secretaries, sat in the corner, staring down at the gray notebook on the table, recording the speeches of the committee members, and complaining endlessly.

Two days have passed since the cavalry regiment of the Third Army was destroyed and Generals Frank and Boer were killed in battle.

However, Peter City's senior leaders have not yet reached an agreement on how to deal with this matter.

There are many differences, and in her opinion there are three main factions.

One faction is the main war faction, which is dominated by the military. Its representative is Lieutenant General Capone, the boss of the Peter City army.

One faction is a compromise faction dominated by nobles, represented by the second consul, Count Philip.

The last party is the government-based Hemu faction, whose representative is the first consul, Lord Vitor.

This is the fourth meeting held, but it is also the last, because Mr. Vitor has spoken. Today, a plan must be come up and reported to the presidium.

"Sauron not only invaded our land, but also killed so many of our compatriots and maimed the two generals Frank and Boer. Philip, you advocated a peaceful settlement of this matter with the Crescent Empire. Where is your conscience? Are you worthy of these soldiers? , are you worthy of all the citizens of Peter City!"

The words spoken by Lieutenant General Capone, who had a calm and gentle face, were full of guns and sticks, making Earl Philip, who was sitting opposite him, secretly gritting his teeth and feeling furious in his heart.

In his opinion, does the seemingly tough Capone really want to go to war with Highland City?

not necessarily.

He may have been really sad when Boer died in the battle and the cavalry regiment was destroyed, because this was his confidant.

But Frank's death in battle is not certain. Although Frank nominally belongs to Capone's leadership, he is actually in the camp of another boss of the Sarus Federal Army.

Now, although Frank is gone, his First Legion is safe and sound, without any losses. Capone can arrange for his own people to join the First Legion openly.

He is now looking to actively start a war. He is probably just pretending to take this opportunity to expand his influence in the army and the city of Peter.

"Capone, for what reason do you want to start a war?" Philip sneered disdainfully, "Zauron's banner was to avenge his father, and his behavior was indeed the same. He killed his enemy and left without occupying the card. Fuli Town!”

"Reason? I still need a reason to kill so many of my people? Philip, is your head caught in your butt?"

"You... are vulgar!" Philip choked on these words.

Nancy frowned slightly and glanced at Capone secretly, trying to regain some ground for her father, Earl Philip.

After listening to the situation for the past few days, she felt that her father was right. There should be no war, but a peaceful solution.

It's not that she favors her father, but that if she starts a war rashly, no one can control the situation. Once it gets out of control, the consequences will be very serious.

"Vulgar? Aren't you just worried that the war will affect your factory, your business, and your money?"

"For a few dollars, you don't even care about the soldiers who protect the safety of citizens and only care about your own interests. What a fool!"

Capone said contemptuously, and continued the personal attack.

Philip was trembling with anger, pointed at Capone and cursed:

"Am I only looking out for my own interests? I advocated resolving this matter through negotiation for the sake of all the citizens of Peter City. If there is a war, they will only be the ones who suffer! I think you are the one with ulterior motives!"

"Ahem!"

"Okay, you two, stop arguing. We are all for Peter City, but from a different angle." Vitor coughed twice and stopped the quarrel between the two.

Just when Nancy thought the Archon was going to continue talking, she heard him continue.

"Lieutenant General Capone, I think what Earl Philip said is very reasonable. We don't have a suitable reason."

"What do we need..."

"Listen to me first." Vitor smiled and stretched out his hand to interrupt Capone. "Zoron did avenge his father. Although his actions were a bit big, he couldn't find any other major faults."

"The most important thing is that last time his father was lured to death by you, and the Crescent Empire didn't say anything."

"So we cannot expand this conflict."

Capone remained silent and did not retort, knowing that Vitor was expressing dissatisfaction with their military's last action.

The top leaders of the two countries have been restraining themselves and letting it be a small fight. However, they set up ambushes, carried out sneak attacks, and killed the previous generation of Count Soros, leaving the presidium very passive. They also paid a lot of money to quell the protests of the Crescent Empire. cost.

But the Soros family is the enemy of their military, and many people in the military have grudges against the Soros family.

Getting rid of this family is what everyone wants. There are some things that he can't stop, and he still has to support them.

"But don't worry, I won't let these soldiers die in vain. The Crescent Empire must give us an explanation!"

Vitor said categorically that this was his true thought. He did not want to cause a war, nor did he want to offend the military.

These two aspects are not easy to balance, and no matter which side he prefers, it is not a good thing for him.

If a war breaks out, he, the consul, will definitely be dominated by the military to serve the war.

If he offends the military, his life will not be easy in the future.

Thinking of this, Vitor rubbed his eyebrows and sighed in his heart, how could this Sauron be so tormented.

"Zoron... must take responsibility for this!" After a while, Capone said in a cold tone.

"Responsible? How to be responsible? Do you want him to kowtow to apologize or apologize?"

The conference room fell silent again for a while.

No one spoke, and Nancy had nothing to do. She looked at the frowning big shots at the conference table, and couldn't help but think of the initiator of this incident, Sauron.

I heard that he was still a high school student who had just come of age.

But why is it so powerful?

He actually defeated Frank and Boer, two long-famous generals, on the battlefield.

Don't know how he did it.
