“Slow down!”
At the bottom, Skyway was in a hurry and jumped right off his horse.
Although he was acting commander-in-chief, it didn’t mean that he was really acting commander-in-chief just because the battle was over; in that place of theirs, everything was about seniority and ability.
So, if the elder, the backer, fell, or if he fell while he was the one in charge, he might not have much chance of promotion even if he had achieved great merits.
At least, the venerable lord might recognise his own merits and place himself in a certain position, but what does this mean?
Most of the people in charge of the matter are elders.
And would the elders possibly reappoint themselves?
The odds are that they won’t.
When your own master dies while you are in charge, no matter what reason you have, chances are that in the eyes of others, you are derelict in your duty, or perhaps even deliberately screwing the elders to get to the top.
At worst, the ones who don’t slander you, that’s a slap on the wrist for you.
label of not being a good protector of your master.
Just ask, how much importance would such a person, and one brought up by other elders, be given under your command?
And of course, there are feelings.
Was Tianlu really relying purely on his own strength when he was able to temporarily assume the position of agent from among a group of close friends?
Obviously not, everyone’s strength is in fact similar, he can sit in this position, in fact, relies more on the relationship with the elders than the others a little closer.
So, then again, isn’t it still a relationship?
He is not trying to screw the elders alive, his words are harder just hoping to show his different means and skills in this mediation with Han Qianqian, at least after welcoming back the elders, his ability is also different in front of the elders, and his status is also far higher than others naturally.
But who could have imagined that the chicken would be stolen and lost?
The first thing you can do is to steal the chicken and lose the rice.
Han Qianqian didn’t eat this at all and the situation became a bit stagnant.
“Han Qianqian, please forgive us if we have offended you with our words just now, we are also in a hurry to welcome back the elders, that’s why we rashly lost our words for a moment.”
Han Qianqian slightly stopped his knife, which was just a hair’s breadth away from the elder’s neck, and even the elder, who was as steady as an old dog, was scared into a cold sweat.
“However, words spoken are not the same as water spilled, and it is not impossible for me to continue to keep my promise, but I have an additional request.”
“What request!”
“After releasing this old thing, we will continue the truce for one more hour, and if you can do that, I will still keep my promise. This one hour is only for me to punish you for speaking out of turn, do you understand?”
“Is it that simple?” Tian Lu asked.
This request was not really too much
, after all, …… had waited for twelve hours, who cared about waiting for one more hour?
“Do you see me, Han Qianqian, as someone who doesn’t keep his word?” Han Qianqian disdained and said.
Tian Lu pondered slightly and thought for a moment, “Okay, I can agree to your conditions.”
With a slight lift of his hand, Han Qianqian threw the knife back into the soldier’s hands.
“In that case, Scar, let them go.”
Scar led the order, followed by a few steps to the elder and released the ropes from his body.
Subsequently, under the escort of Scar and the others, the elder was brought to the bottom of the city tower and handed over to the other side.
After welcoming the Elder back, the group of commanders finally let out a long sigh of relief.
The Elder himself could not help but feel a little scared. Although the journey had been uneventful, he had after all gone to the gate of ghosts, and the fact that he had not died this time was indeed a great joy that was not expected.
“Elder, shall we retreat?”
After welcoming back the elders, Tian Lu sent while
people to send the Elder to the sedan chair that had been prepared long ago, while asking the Elder’s opinion.
The Elder’s brows narrowed and he pondered for a moment, “What do you think?”
“My subordinate thinks that the troops can be withdrawn appropriately, it is only an hour anyway, they can’t do anything with these hours.”
The elder nodded, twelve hours, Han three thousand to be ready for war also long ready to do battle.
In contrast, their main purpose of coming over this time was to greet the elders, although there was no problem with the troops and they could launch an attack on Han Qianqian at any time.
But after all, they are still more or less under-prepared, and a hasty fight may not be as good as it could be, so it would be better to sell them a face.
“Good, go back to the camp first.”
With a wave of the Elder’s hand, the army slowly retreated towards the original camp.
Han Qianqian also knew that the real opportunity that belonged to him had come ……
