Chapter 293: On the Enemy (2)

"Squeak..." The heavy door opening sound rang out in time.

Everyone's eyes moved towards the gate.

An old man with gray hair walked in slowly. Although he was old, his body was still strong and tight. Although he was not as bright as a selves, he was also energetic, without the feeling of being stagnant as an ordinary old man.

"Grandpa? Why are you here?" Lu Tongzhou exclaimed, jumped up like an electric shock, and came to the old man in a few steps, habitually holding his arm.

Lu Dingsheng nodded slightly to him, very satisfied with his most outstanding grandson. However, he also had a slight concern about his shrewdness and ability.

The position of the Lu family leader was not passed to any of his sons, but was directly handed over to the third generation. This incident once caused an almost earth-shaking change within the family.

However, under the suppression of the old man's almost bloody thunder, all opposition voices disappeared in an instant in a few days.

A few years later, Lu Tongzhou did not disappoint his expectations. The Lu family's power in the northwest became increasingly stable and had a thriving momentum.

However, for the elderly who have seen through the human relationship accident, this may not be a good thing.

He understood and witnessed this principle when he was prosperous and declining. However, the young generation of newborn calf may not be cared about in his heart.

"The Old General."

A respectful cry of 0 interrupted the old man's thoughts. He sighed softly. When a person is old, he can't help but likes to think randomly, and it is inevitable that he will be distracted all the time.

"General Xu, General Fang." The old man nodded with a smile and said seriously: "I can hear your words clearly outside the door. The strength of the Caesars is indeed not to be underestimated."

No one dared to be rude to this old man who participated in the Battle of Northern Xinjiang forty years ago. Even Jiang Kongming showed his inner respect at first sight.

Nodding solemnly, Xu Haifeng said: "Don't worry, the old general."

Yan Ming also said, "With you always here to take charge of the overall situation, we will naturally not underestimate the enemy."

Lu Dingsheng laughed and said, "Being in charge of the overall situation? Just an old man, I'd better avoid it. You can make do with it after you shaking the flag and shouting. It's really hard to work hard, and I can't stand this old bone."

Everyone laughed. Even if they had no joy at all, they pretended to smile and laughed out loud.

"You can discuss it. My old man sit here and listen, and just pretend I am not here." Lu Dingsheng waved his hand repeatedly and asked everyone to continue.

Everyone, including Xu Haifeng, sat down happily, but everyone couldn't help but mutter to themselves.

Since the old man has arrived and is sitting here again, and wants to treat him as non-existent, how is that possible?

"Head of the Tang family." Jiang Kongming suddenly spoke.

Tang Qili smiled slightly and asked, "What advice does military advisor Jiang have?"

His concern for this military advisor was far above anyone else. He listened to his greeting and quickly answered, but he was calm and could not see any inappropriateness.

Jiang Kongming shook his feather fan and said, "The Caesars did not use the Knights of the Templar at the beginning, and perhaps the students could explain it."

"Oh... Tang listened with ease."

Jiang Kongming's eyes swept around, including Lu Dingsheng, and everyone had curiosity in their eyes. He said with satisfaction: "Although the land and population of the Caesar Empire were not inferior to our great men, their systems were very different from ours."

Jiang Kongming's voice gradually increased: "The Knights of the Temple were not sent by Emperor Caesar, so it is natural that it cannot appear on the early battlefield."

"Not being sent by the emperor? Could it be that the emperor's power of Caesar has fallen?" asked a man in confusion.

"Otherwise, in our great Han Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor is the magnificent of the Nine Five, and his golden words are the highest law of the country. However, Caesar is different. There is a more noble existence above His Majesty the Emperor."

Jiang Kongming's words seemed to have thrown into a huge rock in a small pool, causing a wave.

"Who is it? Can he be more noble than His Majesty the Emperor?"

Jiang Kongming's eyes swept around again, and the expressions of everyone were taken into consideration.

Among them, people like Shining Ming and Lu Dingsheng, who came from old-fashioned families with real power, were mostly like an old god, and they were not surprised, and they clearly knew about it.

Those who expressed surprise were middle-class families that were wandering outside the top families.

Although they can dominate one side, it is not a problem that they are better than the three major families and the Northwest King.

Therefore, Xiang Ming and others had their own channels to explore the information of the Caesars, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

Through their expressions, Jiang Kongming immediately grasped some things he wanted to know.

Apart from the children of a few large aristocratic families, those guys who remained silent were either so cunning that they could hide it from him or had close relationships with those aristocratic families, so that they could know these unknown secrets.

Those who looked surprised were the families that were relatively alienated from several great families, and they were the targets Jiang Kongming wanted to fight for.

Although these people are like the shaking grass, they will fall with the wind when the wind is strong.

But because of this, they are the easiest candidates to win over.

In addition, as long as your strength is so strong that it is enough to overwhelm anyone, these people will never rebel.

With a slight smile, Jiang Kongming replied: "God..."

"God?" An unexpected voice sounded one after another.

Those who didn't know the inside story all showed a funny smile on their faces.

The theory of ghosts and gods has always been an illusory thing. It is possible to put the invisible and intangible guy on the head of His Majesty the Emperor, and only those barbarians can do it.

Jiang Kongming knew their thoughts well and said, "Ghosts and gods, every country will have its own gods. But the only one who can have such a scale and achieve such a high status is the Caesar."

One of them stood up slowly and asked, "Military Jiang, what do you mean, is it that the Knights of the Temple are from the power of that god?"

"Not bad." Jiang Kongming looked solemn: "The Caesars had two His Majesties, one was the great Lord Caesar of that generation, and the other was His Majesty the spokesperson of the gods in the mortal world. The Knights of the Templar were born in the Holy See and are the biggest ace in the hands of His Majesty the Pope."

"Two Your Majesties?"

This sentence seemed to have brought them a greater impact. This time, even a mature and persistent person like Lu Dingsheng couldn't help but show a hint of unnatural expression on his face.

There is no two days, and there is no two masters in the country.

This is the only criterion inherited by all the Han nobles from generation to generation. They were deeply curious about the Pope among the Caesars who could steadily suppress His Majesty the Emperor, but the bigger one was shocked.

"Did these savages dare to do such a traitor? Did Emperor Caesar let it go?"

"In Caesar, the real big thing is not decided by Caesar alone, but must be reviewed and voted by the Senate before it can take effect." Jiang Kongming explained gently.

However, this explanation made those who knew nothing about it feel even more irrefutable.

If an inexplicable god could defeat Caesar, they felt incredible, but they were not unacceptable.

Because no matter who it is, whether he believes it or not, deep in his heart, he has a deep awe for these mysterious things.

People will naturally blame the theory of ghosts and gods for some incomprehensible things, which is also the biggest reason for the emergence of ghosts and gods.

Even saints are unlikely to be spared. Especially for elderly people like Lu Dingsheng, they will live longer and see more things that cannot be explained, so they will naturally believe in them more in their hearts.

The saying of gods has its unique charm after all, and it is not something that ordinary people like them can evaluate.

However, the existence of that Senate really completely subverted their usual cognition.

As the scale of war between the two completely different ideas and concepts of the East and the West expanded, they finally had a fierce collision.

"Yes, in addition to wartime, if Caesar wants to issue a major decree, he must pass the permission of the Senate. However, of course, he also has some privileges, and Caesar's power occupies the most seats in the Senate. His decision is rarely rejected." Xu Haifeng explained lightly.

He asked about the political structure of the Caesars from Atticus.

These are all first-hand real information, which is much more detailed than those major families who inquire about it themselves.

Everyone below kept silent at first, and then the few friends were in good condition, and they couldn't help but whisper and communicated briefly. This incident had a little more impact on them.

"Ahem..."

A loud cough echoed in the house, and it was suddenly quiet until the needle could be heard.

Lu Dingsheng closed his mouth, as if he was not the one who made the cough just now.

Xu Haifeng was slightly funny. Only this old general could easily suppress them without arousing any resentment.

This is the benefit of the old man. The longer the elderly like him live, the higher the prestige. This can also be regarded as a feature of the Han Empire.

"Although the strength of the Caesars is extraordinary, the army we have is not for decoration. So everyone can rest assured. Xu promises that as long as the Black Flag Army is still there for a day, foreign troops will not be allowed to be presumptuous in our Han Dynasty."

Xu Haifeng said this firmly, exuding an extremely strong confidence. Inexplicably, their hearts settled down and believed Xu Haifeng's words.

Only Lu Dingsheng and others were slightly moved, and they heard the meaning of a pun in Xu Haifeng's words.
