Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 97: Exposing the details

In the corridor quilt covered with red gold silk carpet, Charlie, who had just come out of the dinner party, followed Debra half a step away and walked to his study on the second floor.

The walls on both sides of the corridor are hung with famous paintings by famous masters, as well as the heroic figures of the ancestors of the Clos family on the battlefield. Become a knight, a baron, a viscount...and become a famous family in the country through generations of wars and marriages.

Debra seemed to be in a good mood tonight. He led Charlie down the corridor while introducing Charlie about the family history. In his memory, this seemed to be the first time Debra had spoken to himself so much alone.

If this body is still under the control of the original owner, you might be flattered by it.

It's a pity that the soul in this body has long since been replaced. Charlie listened to Debra's introduction silently, with no other thoughts in his mind except the sigh of this family history.

Soon, the two walked to Debra's exclusive study, which did not change much from the study in Charlie's memory-simple decoration, most of the books on the bookshelf were mainly military works, and there was also a book next to the desk. A miniature model of a huge sailing warship.

Debra sat down first, then raised his hand and motioned for Charlie to sit with him. After the latter's **** was on the soft chair, he didn't start talking about tonight's business.

"Charlie, your remarks today have angered many nobles. The Santos party has always been the enemy of our nobles. You decided to let them go without authorization. I want to hear your reasons."

"The reason is very simple." Charlie knew that he would be asked this question. He had already prepared a draft, coughed lightly, and started talking.

"Although our family currently occupies a dominant position among the aristocrats, this is based on the fact that we have a strong military force. When the shadow of the civil war passes and the country restores order, the force we have in hand will lose a certain deterrent effect. Those nobles are all about their interests, so how could they be willing to let us continue to take the lead?"

"And once the Santos Party is completely suppressed, the National Assembly will become a situation in which the aristocracy is opposed to the bourgeoisie. Under the Sandy government's policy, the bourgeoisie will buy land and set up factories in various parts of the country, and their wealth may be greater than ours. There is more in your imagination. Judging from the greedy character of those aristocrats, do you think they will endure the bourgeoisie to hold so much wealth?"

"In the past, the National Assembly was divided between the noble faction and the Santos party. The fight between the two not only hurt both sides, but also allowed the bourgeoisie to take the opportunity to develop. With the third faction contained, no matter which party it is, it will converge a lot rather than evolve. For civil war, that's the balance."

"I think, you don't want to see the third civil war break out, do you?"

Charlie ends his story with a rhetorical question.

After listening to Charlie's answer, Marshal Debra was silent for a while. He looked at Charlie with deep-seated eyes: "Charlie, is this what you learned on the front line?"

"It's not." Charlie shook his head with a smile, "I stayed in the south for half a year, and I also learned a lot during that time."

The implication is, don't look at me with the eyes of the past, Shibei still looks at me with admiration for three days.

Debra nodded, and he asked again, "Charlie, what's your next plan, is it to return to the front line or stay in the capital?"

"If I can, I want to stay in the capital. I think the family needs the help of a new congressman with military merit like me." Charlie smiled.

Debra is also a sly old fox, how can he not see that Charlie's real purpose is not for the family, he did not show any superfluous emotions: "In this case, I will be in the name of the Clos family at the parliament. You recommend entering Parliament as a new member, Charlie, and after entering Parliament, I hope you will remember what you said today."

"I will, grandpa."

Charlie nodded in agreement.

His voice fell, and the study fell into silence. The two were silent for dozens of seconds before Debra said wearily, "Go back first."

"Okay, good night grandpa."

Charlie got up and walked out of the study. Shortly after he left the study, the door was knocked from outside, and then Gunilla walked in.

"Father, how are you and Charlie talking?" He asked straight to the point as soon as he came in.

"I can see that there are many secrets hidden in that child." Debra answered nonchalantly. He patted the chair beside him and motioned for Gunny to come over and sit down. After the latter sat down, he continued to talk hoarsely. said in his voice.

"Gunilla, how's your investigation going? In the past four years, he has undergone tremendous changes. This terrible change even made me feel terrified."

"Nothing was found." Gunilla smiled bitterly and said, "But I found an interesting discovery."

"what?"

"Charlie's performance was very normal in the first two years, but the turning point was that in a battle two years ago, he was hit in the chest by the enemy's bullet. After he was rescued, the military doctor almost judged him dead~www.readwn. com~ But it only took him a few days to fully recover from his injuries and return to the army."

Hearing Gu Nila say this, Debra's first reaction was disbelief. He has struggled in the army for most of his life, and he knows too much about the existing bullet power and medical conditions. If a person is hit in the chest, he can directly declare After death, how can it be possible to fully recover in a few days?

But seeing Gunila's serious and serious expression, he pressed down the doubts in his heart, clenched his fists unconsciously, and asked, "Are you serious?"

"I didn't believe it at first, but after asking the medics at Fort Edford, they told me that it was true, and even swore to the Holy Spirit, I had to believe them," Gunila said. In this age, swearing to the Holy Spirit is extremely serious, and no one dares to betray the Holy Spirit's oath.

Debra's face became a little ugly, and the old marshal who had been in the army for many years suddenly had some inexplicable fear in his heart - he was resurrected from the dead, and there was an earth-shaking change from four years ago. Is this a legend? Angels come to earth?

Soon, he shook his head and put those wild thoughts behind him. He took a deep breath and commanded in a deep voice: "Gunila, you must rot in your stomach, no one can say it, There are those who do things, and they are all dealt with."

This matter is of great importance, but I dare not let more people know about it. People talk too much. If it is leaked, not only will Charlie have an accident, but their Cross family will also be implicated.

People don't think that Charlie is a so-called angel who came into the world. If he is guided by someone with a heart to say that he is possessed by a demon, then it will be over.

Gunilla was obviously accustomed to this kind of thing. He nodded naturally, with a serious look on his face.

He also realized this.
