"Is it a hundred?" Petrius whispered to himself.

He stopped and thought deeply. The expression on his face was uncertain and changing constantly. It was obvious that he was hesitating in his heart.

Adjutant Narsus looked at his boss nervously. Narsus had followed Petrius for more than ten years, and he knew his boss very well.

Although he was an important general in the army, he was prolific in killing people and made great military exploits, but he also attached great importance to friendship. When it came to some old people and old friends, Petrius was always hesitant.

At this time, a gray-haired veteran in casual clothes ran in at a speed that was not commensurate with his age. He shouted loudly before entering the door: "Good news, good news, sir, General Hadou is awake."

Yes, did you hear it? General Hadou is awake~!

Now our grievances can finally be clarified.

Ha, I just said that little brat Angel is definitely not good."

Petrius's heart sank, and then he said with a straight face and an expressionless face: "Really? General Preacher."

"Of course," veteran Preacher shook the letter in his hand excitedly and said happily: "This is your lord's autograph, and it must be unmistakable. Your lord also said in the letter that the previous incident was a misunderstanding, Anhe

I have formally apologized to you, Your Excellency, and Lord Hadou has also punished Angel. Not only did he scold him bloody, but he also slapped him so hard that he almost beat him to death. And he also

Lock him up."

Petrius just said a faint "hmm" and seemed to be uninterested and in no mood to talk.

But I sneered secretly in my heart. I almost didn’t beat him to death. That means, I didn’t beat him to death~!

That little brat almost killed me in order to seize power~!

The result was that he was scolded and beaten, and then the little bastard was sent home to reflect. It was really a "severe" punishment.

Seeing Petrius's stiff and dissatisfied attitude, General Pritcher folded up the letter, walked over and patiently persuaded him, saying: "Sir, Mr. Hardu asked us all to go back to Haligad for a meeting. I think Mr. Hadu must be sure.

I will take this opportunity to clarify the misunderstanding with you in person."

Petrius shook his head and said coldly: "The enemy's forward has arrived at the city. As the commander-in-chief of guarding Kirkfors, my mission is here, not in Halligad. How can I leave Zinderen Fortress at this time?"

Any instructions can be sent via express mail."

Pritcher said anxiously: "But this is Master Hardou's personal summons, wouldn't it be a good idea not to go?"

"It's not that he can't go, I'm afraid he doesn't dare to go." A voice next to him said in a sinister tone.

Petrius turned around suddenly and looked at the speaker coldly, staring at him with an angry look on his face.

The speaker was standing at the door of the hall. Behind him, a dense group of fortress officers gathered outside the hall.

The man also stared. He looked at Petrius without fear. The two people's eyes collided, as if they could spark.

It takes courage to persevere under Petrius's cannibalistic eyes.

Seeing this guy's eyes not evading and looking at him without any hesitation, Petrius felt strange in his heart. He thought to himself: When did this sycophant become cowardly?

Petrius put one hand on his waist and slowly grasped the hilt of the sword with the other hand, the murderous aura in his eyes getting stronger and stronger.

Narsus looked at his boss and General Monk, who had just entered, and took a step back. He quietly gestured to the guards behind him.

"Munch, what do you mean?" Pritcher saw something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward, squinting at him dissatisfied. It was a good thing, why did this guy come to disturb the situation~!

General Monk narrowed his slender eyes, staring at Petrius like a poisonous snake, and said forcefully: "This is Lord Hardu's military order, Petrius, no matter what you think, you must execute it~!"

Petrius snorted disdainfully and sneered: "Hadu just got up and doesn't understand the situation on the front line. I can't leave now. You can just go and explain to him."

Munch held the order in his hand and raised it high above his head. He shouted at Petrius: "Master Hardu ordered that you, Petrius, must go to Haligad to attend the meeting."

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two of them, Pritcher was a little dumbfounded. He waved his hands anxiously and said, "If you have anything to say, please talk to me. Don't be impatient, everyone."

Petrius smiled slightly, stared at Munch coldly, and said solemnly: "What if I say no?"

"Huh huh..." General Monk sneered, slowly aligned the orders in his hands, folded them up neatly, and said: "Lord Hadou had expected that you would be like this."

Then he took out a piece of paper from the inner pocket of his clothes, waved it proudly in front of Petrius, unfolded it and read in the loudest voice: "Today, Commander-in-Chief of Kirkforth, Quindus Petrius, openly

For disobeying military orders, if Quindus Petrius is relieved of all his duties, he will be escorted to Haligad for interrogation, Amor, Hadoushu."

After Munch finished reading, everyone inside and outside the hall was stunned, with expressions of disbelief on their faces, looking back and forth between Petrius and Munch.

It’s so cool to actually do something like this~!

Petrius listened to Munch's announcement of the order with a calm expression. He was silent for a long time, then with a lonely expression on his face, he lowered his head and let out a long sigh of relief.

Petrius suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly and murmured to himself: "Hadu, Hadu, old friend, decades of life-and-death friendship, you just ignore them all, whatever, whatever..."

Monk slapped Hardu's order on the table hard and laughed proudly: "Petrius, your days are over, just be honest and catch him without a fight."

He has been suppressed by Petrius all this time, and now he can finally feel proud.

Petrius glanced at Monk contemptuously and said with a smile: "Just you, a flatterer?"

Munch's face instantly turned red, he pointed angrily at Petrius, and shouted: "Brothers, come on, take him down for me."

While everyone was still in a daze, a group of soldiers behind Monk drew their weapons and rushed forward.

Petrius stared at the soldiers rushing up with a cold expression, and the two doors behind him suddenly opened. A large group of soldiers rushed up, some of them blocked in front of Petrius. Others quickly surrounded the entire hall.

.

The crossbow and spear in his hand were immediately aimed at the people in the hall.

Seeing that Petrius's men were outnumbered, all the soldiers who rushed in stopped and surrounded Monk.

Pritcher stood alone in the middle, jumping up and down anxiously. "What are you doing? We have something to talk about."

Petrius shouted violently: "What else is there to say? My son wants to kill me, and now his father wants to kill me too. Who do I think I am, Petrius?"

Seeing the cold swords around him aimed at him, Munch was secretly anxious and said: "Master Hadu asked you to go because he wants to resolve this misunderstanding, not to deepen it..."

Petrius laughed loudly and said: "Do you think I'm a fool? I'm right here. If you want to take me, let Hadou come in person."

"You don't need General. We can do it." Hadou's guard captain shouted outside the hall: "Under the order of General Hadou, capture Petrius, enter~!"

The personal guards led hundreds of soldiers behind them and rushed into the hall with a shout.

Petrius's men immediately rushed forward, and the two sides fought desperately in a small space.

Monk took the opportunity to fight and retreated, crawling out of the hall. Looking around at the bewildered officers who came after hearing the news, he pointed at them and shouted loudly: "Call your soldiers.

Capture the traitor Petrius for me."

The officers looked at Monk in shock. Petrius's reputation was deeply rooted in their hearts, and these people could not even think of opposing Petrius.

Monk stared at them and said fiercely: "This is an order from General Hadou himself. Anyone who disobeys the order will be regarded as treason."

This big hat was turned off. The officers began to hesitate.

Monk simply pulled out a long sword, pointed it at the surrounding officers, and yelled: "You all take action, or I will kill you now."

Suddenly an officer drew his weapon, pointed at Monk and cursed: "You son of a bitch. How dare you dictate on our land in Kirkforth. What about Hadou? My boss is a general. Call someone and chop him down."

Got these bastards."

Opposite him, someone stood up and shouted: "This is General Hadou's order, what? Do you want to rebel?"

"If you rebel against this kind of government, I will kill you~!"

"..."

Several officers with different positions clashed at the entrance of the hall, waving weapons.

Their respective soldiers rushed over after hearing the news, and soldiers from the two opposing parties surrounded the hall.

One party wanted to rush into the hall to reinforce Petrius, but the other party immediately rushed forward to stop them.

The Southern troops, who were originally compatriots, started fighting around the entrance of the hall.

However, unlike those officers, they all fought lazily and couldn't raise their spirits at all. Most of the time they were just pretending.

After all, the person opposite is his colleague, or even a neighbor who lives on the same street. Once he kills someone, how will he face his parents, wife and children in the future?

But despite this, the sword he held in his hand was a bright and sharp sword. When he was swinging it, one of them would inevitably bump into it.

As time goes on, some people will eventually lose their patience and start fighting. The result will be a river of blood flowing out of control.

More soldiers nearby were silently watching the fighting inside and outside the hall. They didn't know which side to help. They didn't know what to do. They could only watch the situation worsen step by step.

Suddenly, a thunderous shout came from the hall: "Stop the hell~!"

The soldiers in the battle were stunned by the sound. It was the Petrius-style shout that they were familiar with. When Petrius was on the front line, he used roars and shouts to boost morale.

The soldiers slowly stopped and cautiously retreated to both sides.

Petrius looked at the bodies of the Confederate soldiers lying on the ground with regret and said, "I have something to say."

Then he just walked out. Forced by the soldiers' spears, Hadou's personal guards retreated step by step and were forced out of the hall.

Petrius finally stood at the door of the hall, looked at the dense crowd of Southern soldiers in front of him, sighed longly, and said: "They are all native southerners and brothers of my Petrius, why do they need to kill each other?

"

Thousands of Confederate soldiers looked at their commander with solemn expressions.

"That's all." Petrius said with half interest: "Since Hadou can't tolerate me, then I'll leave. You are all followers who have followed me through life and death. I can't watch you not fighting the enemy, but killing your own people.

.I, Petrius, will not put my brothers in trouble, I will leave.
