Volume 29, Chapter 6(1/2)
Low-key, plain, firm, talented and indomitable, this is the impression Sterling left on the world. No one expected that after experiencing countless hardships, this generation of generals who were rare after Yarime actually fell in Wangdu Ridge on a snowy night.
He was the last pillar of the Zichuan family. Perhaps because he had already taken too much pressure? When he fell down, the Zichuan family fell down.
Lin Bing prayed silently: "Mr. Sterling, I am going back to the Far East. On behalf of Commander Axiu, you are here to visit you. Holy and God, you have become a god, you have a spirit in heaven, please bless your family and your prosperity and development of the Far East Army... Please bless our Commander Axiu's peace."
After bowing, Lin Bing took a step forward and delivered the white rose in her hand. At this time, she saw that before herself, in front of Sterling's spiritual throne, there was a bouquet of white lilies, and the flowers were tender and white.
Lin Bing was stunned. Di Lin's mutiny had been successful. The rebels controlled the capital and surrounding areas. The Chief of the Palace and the Holy Spirit Temple fell into the hands of the rebels. Although the rebels claimed that Sterling died at Luo Minghai, even the people knew the truth. Who is so bold to dare to openly worship Sterling? Wouldn't he be afraid of being targeted by the rebels to take revenge?
Lin Bing wiped the face of the white marble stele, bowed again, and prayed silently in his heart: "Mr. Sterling, I'm leaving for a while. In the future, when the royal army of the family restored the imperial capital again, Xiaguan and Commander Xiuchuan came to visit you together. Take care."
She looked up at the huge flying eagle on the wall, stared at it for a long time, sighed a long time, and turned around and left.
In front of the door of the hall, she stopped: in front of the hall, among the flowers and cypresses, Di Lin's tall figure stood quietly, with bright eyes staring at herself. In his hand, he was holding a big handful of white lily flowers.
"Sir Inspector General?"
The handsome man came over and bowed slightly: "It's been a long time since I was there. Chief Lin."
This was the first time Lin Bing saw Di Lin since the incident. When he was in the Far East, Di Lin served as a subordinate. At that time, Di Lin had a sharp temperament like a sharp blade, and it felt that it was dangerous to get close to him.
But the person in front of him seemed a little different. His eyes were deep and clear. There was a moving rhythmic beauty in his movements, which was pleasing to the eye. Now the Earth Emperor Forest seems to be reborn, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
A sentence flashed through Lin Bing's mind: Great merits and great crimes!
"Is it a coincidence, Chief Inspector?"
Di Lin smiled and showed his white teeth: "Of course it's not a coincidence. Chief Lin, I heard that you are going back to the Far East. I'm here to see you off."
“Here?”
"There are too many people in the office, so I don't like to join in the fun."
Lin Bing pursed her lips tightly and did not make a sound. Di Lin guessed that she was going to come to the Holy Spirit Hall before returning to the Far East - this devil who was trying to figure out the hearts of the people, she felt like she was seen through all over her body, which made her very uncomfortable.
She said lightly: "The laborer is so proud that he is flattered."
"Captain Lin..."
"Sir, Chief Inspector, your rank is far above me. I don't need to mention the word "Sir."
"Sir, please be polite. You were my land chief, and Di Lin is definitely not a person who forgets his roots."
"Lord Di Lin is so nostalgic that I am really touched and flattered. However, I, Lin Bing, have a thin shoulders and cannot bear your respect. I am still exempted."
Di Lin smiled and said as if nothing had happened: "You are joking. Chief Lin, I heard that you are going back to the Far East soon?"
"If you allow it, Lord Dilin."
"Captain Lin is so serious. For so many days, although the imperial capital has strictly enforced curfews and city bans, we have all allowed all colleagues in the Far East, and you have not been hindered. This is to express our kindness and friendship, and you should know it in your heart."
"We can walk around the streets of the capital without being arrested in prison----- we really have to thank the Inspector General for his kindness. I really don't know how to repay this great kindness."
Di Lin stopped and turned his head to look at Lin Bing: "Captain Lin, do you seem to have a misunderstanding of me?"
"How dare? The Chief of Inspector General is mighty. I am a weak woman, how dare I misunderstand you? I am a brave man, and I am very impressed by you."
After saying that, Lin Bing immediately regretted: Since he had decided to perfunctory him, why are he so impulsive? There was a cold poisonous snake in front of him, why do he still anger him? This devil king, he needs no reason to kill people.
Di Lin was not angry. He stared at Lin Bing for a while, and then said, "President Lin, you are the one I respect. I just want to ask you one thing: To be fair, how does the Zichuan family treat me? Is it fair?"
Lin Bing was stunned. She wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't say anything, and finally let out a long sigh.
"Late on the night of New Year's Eve, on my way home happily to reunite with my wife and children to celebrate the New Year, more than 400 armed bandits holding spears and long swords washed away my convoy. More than 100 guards were all killed in battle, and only I survived. The person who carried out this tragedy was Luo Minghai and Lindi, and the person who was instructing behind it was Zichuan Shenxing.
Chief Lin, what would you do if you were replaced?" Di Lin looked at Lin Bing and asked calmly: "Will you die if you are left alone?"
Lin Bing was silent and pursed his lips tightly.
Di Lin sighed: "General Lin, you and I have different positions, and I don't expect you to agree with me, but at least, I hope you can understand. I was forced to do the whole thing and had no choice. I have no regrets, but there is one thing that makes me very sad."
Di Lindi's tone was very deep, and Lin Bing asked softly: "Military Affairs Director?"
Di Lin nodded heavily: "The death of my second brother is not my original intention... Of course, my sin is irreversible, and I don't intend to distinguish it. But from the beginning to the end, I did not have any idea to harm him at all! Do you believe this?"
Looking at Di Lin's clear eyes, Lin Bing nodded with difficulty and said, "I believe. In any aspect, you really don't have to kill Sterling."
"Thank you, Chief Lin." Emperor Lin breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled at Lin Bing: "This time we go to the Far East, the mountains and rivers are long. Chief Lin, take care of us along the way. Please greet Ah Xiu on my behalf."
He stretched out his hand towards Lin Bing.
Looking at the other person with a complicated expression, Lin Bing hesitated, and finally stretched out his hand. Looking into Di Lin's eyes, she whispered: "Di Lin, I can't agree with your behavior, but I have to admit that you are indeed a hero in the world."
Di Lin smiled faintly and said, "Zichuan has been divided into three hundred years in the southeast. What's wrong with me overthrowing it? Zichuan Yun was a hero of a generation three hundred years ago. How could he know that today's me is worse than him?
Today, the turbulent situation on the mainland is the time for heroes to rise. How can our heroes stick to the pedantic and pedantic details? Without destruction, the collapse of the Zichuan family is also an opportunity for the rise of the new empire in the mainland?"
"Your empire will never rise." Looking at him, Lin Bing said firmly: "The Far Easters will destroy you!"
Di Lin shook his head, his smile contained a kind of magnanimity, like an adult forgives the naughty child: "Captain Lin, you will see. Future history will prove it."
"Captain Lin, I have a few words, I want to ask you to help me convey A Xiu, is that okay?"
Lin Bing nodded calmly: "Please say it, I will convey the original words."
"In recent years, under the rule of the Zichuan family, the country has experienced too many wars, famines, wars, poverty, fatigue, and deep suffering. The country is on the verge of collapse of disasters. Poor and tired people need time to recuperate, and mothers also need time to raise their children to adulthood. If civil war begins, the most painful ones are the millions of people in the country, the innocent people and low-level soldiers.
I usurped power and seized the throne, but how did the Zichuan family come into being? Didn’t Zichuan Yun usurped the Guangming Dynasty?
For the sake of the means of asking, the people in charge of the country will only ask for the results. I believe that if the country is under my control in the future, it will definitely be better than the Zichuan family.
A Xiu, you are a nostalgic person. You always remember the kindness of the Zichuan family to you. But is it more important to be the power and glory of a family, or is the welfare of millions of people more important? Who is more capable of making the country stronger and making the people happy? Who is more suitable to rule this country? Is it me, or Zichuan Ning?
As long as you think calmly, you can come up with the answer.
Nowadays, what the country needs most is not justice, but peace. As long as you are willing to work with me, we can support this country, and we can also bring peace and food, clothing and peace to millions of suffering people. As long as you can agree, you can discuss any conditions, and even the new empire in the future, I can regard you as the emperor."
After saying a long call, Di Lin seemed to have a lot to say. He pondered forever, Lin Bing held his breath and listened intently. But in the end, Di Lin just sighed and said melancholy: "Axiu, please think carefully."
"That's all, Chief Lin, please."
Looking at the people in front of her, Lin Bing's eyes circulated. After a long time, she solemnly said: "Please rest assured, Lord Di Lin, I have remembered your words and will definitely bring them to you. You don't have to worry."
"If you can't trust you, Chief Lin, I won't ask you for help." After bowing, Di Lin smiled and said goodbye: "I won't delay your itinerary, I hope there will be a date later."
Looking at the tall figure of Emperor Lin between the flowers and pine and cypress standing at the gate of the Holy Spirit Hall [Dragon 5 Book. The house was cleaned and slowly disappeared. Lin Bing's eyes were complicated and he fell into confusion.
"It may not be a good thing for this person to be the emperor?"
Lin Bing shook her head and drove this absurd idea out of her mind. The young deputy commander of the Far East Army was quite knowledgeable and experienced, but in her life experience, she had never met someone like this.
Drive towards the place where the sun rises, Lin Bing leaves the imperial capital with a strange mood. Looking back at the rising sun shining on the underground city wall, she feels like things change. For the first time in three hundred years, the person who ruled this majestic city is no longer the Zichuan family.
The convoy went east. Lin Bing didn't want to disturb the place, but there was no way. The inspection departments in various places sent people to wait. As soon as the Lin Bing convoy entered the provincial boundary, someone immediately came up to him and asked respectfully: "Is it the convoy led by Lin from the Far East Army? Under the order of the headquarters, the subordinate came to escort it."
Lin Bing repeatedly stated that it was enough to accompany the guards and horses, so there was no need to bother you, but the military judge's attitude was quite firm: "Sir, the headquarters has issued a strict order. If the subordinates cannot complete the task, they will be severely punished. Please do not let the subordinates make things difficult for us. We will never hinder your itinerary."
Lin Bing knew that unless he wanted to turn against the Supervision Bureau, he would definitely not be able to get rid of these uninvited "guards". Since he could not be pushed away, he had to accept it.
A spectacular scene appeared on the road, with cars like water and horses like dragons. Hundreds of armed military police surrounded Linbing's convoy, and the murderous tigers looked around. Wherever the convoy went, the outpost that advanced blocked the road, and pedestrians and carriages were driven to both sides of the road. After a large group of guards and cavalry guards leading the way, a team of military police holding a black horsetail flag led the way for the convoy, shouting loudly: "Silent~ Avoid~" The long shout echoed long on the desolate avenue.
Passers-by were driven to the side of the road. With a complicated mood, they watched the powerful carriage pass through them with great might. In their eyes, they exuded various emotions: envy, fear, hatred...
Enjoying this kind of bathing eyes and feeling the taste of being a superior and powerful person, the followers felt very satisfied and filled with energy. But Lin Bing herself was deeply worried. She understood the intention of Di Lindi. In this way, Di Lin announced to the world that an unbreakable and firm friendship between him and the Far East Army was to deter any possible challenger.
On the evening of January 15, the convoy passed through the capital of Bartley Province, and Lin Bing rested at the local inn. Late at night, the guards reported that the governor and the governor of Bartley Province had not seen each other and asked for a secret reception.
Lin Bing was a little surprised. Originally, as her Far East Army veteran, she had dealt with the governors or governors of the Southeast provinces, and it was not uncommon for acquaintances to visit. However, in the brutal war against the demons in 1974, in order to delay the progress of the demons' army, the senior management of the Zichuan family issued an order: "The family soldiers will never take a step back!" ------- This is the order No. 271, which is called the inhumane in later generations. The governors and governors in various places faced cruel choices. If they wanted to survive, they had to lose their official positions, and if they didn't want to lose their official positions, they had to die. The general consequence of this incident was that after the demons were expelled, the governors and governors of the southeastern provinces generally changed their faces, so Lin Bing could not imagine who would not see her in the middle of the night.
When Lin Bing hurriedly changed into his uniform and came to the reception room, both men stood up from the sofa.
Lin Bing vaguely felt that one of them looked familiar. She tried hard to search for memories in her mind, and greeted her, "It's rude. You two think they are Bartley's guardians and parents? Below is Lin Bing."
Both men saluted Lin Bing. One of them took the initiative to speak out: "Mr. Lin, here is Governor Waxin, Batley. During the Battle of Bataan, you led your troops through the local area, and the officials were fortunate to get to know you."
Lin Bing nodded slowly: "I remember you, Lord Wa Xin, you were the commander of the 51st Army of the Southeast Army and the commander of the Wa Xin Army?"
Wa Xin laughed happily: "Mr. Lin has a good memory. At that time, there were dozens of officers in our Southeast Army. You can still recognize the officials now. It's amazing. I was disturbed late at night and it was rude."
Lin Bing smiled and said, "Please sit down, Your Excellency Waxin, and this Your Excellency..."
"Oh, this is my colleague, the provincial governor (governor) Wu Hua red-robed flag." As he said that, Wa Xin deliberately emphasized his tone: "Sir, you can rest assured that he is his own!"
The thin old man who came with Wa Xin stood up and greeted him: "Mr. Lin, I haven't seen you late at night. I'm so sorry to disturb you to rest. But if this is not the case, we can't avoid the military police. If we let them know that we have seen you, we will be in big trouble."
Lin Bing said lightly: "Oh?"
Wa Xinzhengrong said: "Sir, we are reckless tonight. Time is tight, so we will not go around. You came from the imperial capital and have a lot of knowledge. We want to ask, what happened to the imperial capital that night?"
Lin Bing said lightly: "Didn't the poster explain it very clearly? Luo Minghai plotted a mutiny, murdered the Chief of the General and Sterling, the Chief of Inspectorate to quell the rebellion, and supported His Highness De Ning to succeed the throne-------- do you have any questions?"
The two red flags exchanged their eyes, and Wu Hua red flags coughed dryly: "Sir, we have read the post. But the official felt that the notice was a little suspicious and the explanation was not very clear. Cough cough, it was a little difficult to justify itself. Moreover, there were some rumors recently, which made people feel sceptical, cough cough, and it was very confusing... So, the official came to verify with Lord Lin."
"Oh, what do you think is suspicious? What rumors are there in the end?"
"This. Cough, of course, the lower officials also listened to rumors... It is said that the incident happened a little different from what the post newspaper said... The official was not very clear about the details. Of course, it may be just a nonsense of some ignorant and foolish people..."
Seeing that the deputy commander of the Far East Army was always faint, Wu Hua's forehead was sweating and he quickly turned around: "Of course, the officials are determined to believe in those things. The nonsense of ignorant and foolish people is not worth mentioning..."
Lin Bing smiled and didn't say anything. He just looked at him inexplicably, which made Wu Hua feel bleak and kept wiping his sweat.
"I said, don't worry about yourselves!" Wa Xin stood up and walked closer, saying sincerely: "Mr. Lin, although Xia Guan has only seen you once, Xia Guan can see that you are a reliable person. My companions also told me that you are a decent person. So I dare to see you tonight. If you sell me, then I'll be blind!
Lord Lin, we are willing to give it our promise, and I will only ask you one thing: There is a reliable person to tell us that Di Lin launched a rebellion and murdered His Highness Chanxing, the President and the Military Affairs Commissioner, and the President and the President were wronged-------Is this true?"
