Hardy and Taike were confused in the beginning, but when they understood what Lin Xiao ant, they wanted to kill him!
Damn brat, since you couldnt take care of Barrett yourself, you had to drag us down with you?
Wage deductions for military expenditure and then getting Hardy to bring a bunch of people to their deaths this had nothing to do with Hardy and Taike, if Barrett wanted to fight, then let him, but with Lin Xiaos suggestion, he forcibly dragged the peace faction down as well.
No, no, my abilities cant compare to Grand Marshall Barretts, if I go help, Ill just be in the way, Lin Xiao uh no, princess, why dont you consider it a bit more?
Hardy quickly tried to push it off and Taike also started crying and complaining.
Princess, we also have no more money! We already shrank our wages by more than half because of the plague and official expenses have been greatly decreasing, any more and we wont even be able to eat!
Yes princess, we really have no more money!
We have nothing left!
When they heard that their wallets were being touched, the people from the peace faction got anxious.
Lin Xiao already anticipated their anger and secretly smiled.
Everyone calm down, I dont want anyone to starve, but I already agreed to Barretts plan, hes the one asking you guys for money, not !
Lin Xiao shook his hands and made Barrett take the bla.
I know how difficult it is for everyone, so please negotiate with Grand Marshall Barrett.
He helplessly shrugged and looked to Barrett. Barrett was clueless and was assaulted by a barrage of verbal abuse before he could even speak.
Barrett, to tell you the truth I dont have any money, just my life! Take a look to see how much my head is worth and take it for military expenditure!
Barrett, you also have a family it might be enjoyable for you to go to war, but your family has to eat dirt!
Anyways we have no money, if you force us, then we quit!
Right! Barrett, dont forget we hold the logistic lines, if youre deadset on starving us, then dont even think about eating either!
When Barrett heard them rebuking him like hooligans, he didnt even know what to say. He has always seen these officials as cowardly and incompetent like herbivores and didnt think of them as anything. But now to his surprise, these herbivores can jump and bite?
Lin Xiao, nice touch! You knew that relying on Claire alone wasnt enough, so you got additional help and purposely riled up the peace faction and transferred their anger to deal with !?
Barrett looked at Lin Xiao and saw him smiling, and when their eyes t he could only sigh and shake his head.
Theres no money or food, and if you force them too far, theyll take you with them! Even if his plan was approved, it would be difficult to implent.
Everyone please stop, were all doing this for the country, its not like I want to see everything fall into chaos.
Barrett shook his hands and exchanged a helpless look with his subordinates and they all sighed and finally accepted their defeat. It couldnt be helped, no matter how good he was, he couldnt survive an attack from both sides. He actually already did well and didnt do anything wrong, there was only one reason he failed he was facing Lin Xiao.
Just that.
Okay then, since the princess and everyone else says theres no more money, then I dont want it anymore but we cant really counterattack without money, and we cant just let the soldiers starve, so as for this plan sigh, forget about it.
As he said that, he waved his hands and the attendants ca and reluctantly took the plan and the large box of information out of the eting room.
The box leaving the eting room ant that Barrett was defeated by Lin Xiao!
Like that, the peace and war factions were both defeated, and now was the ti for Lin Xiao to reap the results of his victory!
Clap, clap.
Lin Xiao also clapped his hands like Barrett and then the two beauties that were listening walked over like Lin Xiaos dedicated secretaries, each holding a plan, one for Barrett and one for Hardy.
Everyone stopped when they saw them walking over, but both sides felt different things.
General Hardy, this is for you~
ShenDai Ying was responisble for the peace faction. She gracefully walked over and gently placed the plan on the table in front of Hardy.
On the other side, the war faction wasnt feeling so good.
Here!
Elena had no respect for Barrett and simply threw the plan in front of Barrett without even looking at him and then left.
Was this arrogant girl actually a maid?
Lin Xiao was so normal, but his secretaries were treasures! They really didnt know where he found them
Cough, everyone, this is a plan I prepared.
Lin Xiao coughed to bring everyones attention back to himself and then seriously ordered Barrett.
Grand Marshall Barrett, we can counterattack! But we need ti to prepare. So for now you can follow my daily schedule for training and reconnaissance and prepare to counterattack at any ti!
We can counterattack, we just need ti, is it
Barrett understood just by flipping over a few pages and silently accepted his plans.
Now that its co to this, what else could he do but agree?
After he nodded, Lin Xiao turned to the other side.
General Hardy, Minister Taike, you can still try going for negotiations with the rebels, but at the sa ti, you have to think of ways to increase military funding! We can only fight, we cant have peace! Peace talks are just a pretense to buy ti!
To buy ti? Sigh, okay, well listen to you
After looking through Lin Xiaos plans, Taike also quickly understood.
It was obvious that ti was their biggest enemy and Lin Xiao was buying ti for both sides. They couldnt advance prematurely but also couldnt retreat, so his plan was the most rational one.
After seeing both sides concede, Claire finally smiled!
Lin Xiao actually did it! He really helped everyone co to an agreent!
My god! Claire couldnt believe it was real and still thought she was dreaming, so she secretly reached a hand under the table and held onto the helm of his shirt like she was afraid he would suddenly disappear. Then she felt it wasnt reliable and directly felt up his leg and pinched it!
Stop ssing around! If you want to thank , wait until after the eting!
Lin Xiao was afraid Claires movents would be noticed so he could only endure the pain and whisper to her.
Hehe, okay
Claire finally cald down after getting a response and Lin Xiao cleared his throat to announce the results. This noisy eting was finally over with their victory!
Since everyone is in agreent, then this eting
Wait!
Just as Lin Xiao was about to announce the end, and everyone was already in agreent, Hardy who was silent suddenly interrupted him!
General Hardy? Do you still have sothing to say?
At this point, it was impossible for Hardy to overturn the decision, so Lin Xiao had no idea what he wanted.
Princess, Lin Xiao theres sothing you must know!
What?
Regarding Barrett.
The Grand Marshall? What about it?
I suggest removing Barrett as the Grand Marshall!
What did you say?
