The Era of Generals

Resign from the post of military aircraft chief?

As soon as this remark came out, Chen Ze really did not expect it, and he was inexplicably surprised for a while.

Facing Chen Ze's surprised gaze, Mr. Jing had a calm face.

He put the teacup on the edge of the sand table, turned around and looked out of the window with his hands behind his hands, sighing, "It's selfish for you to be the commander of the city defense."

"Yes, in the absence of the city lord, as the chief officer of the military aircraft, I have the right to appoint a suitable commander, but this requires comprehensive consideration of various aspects and a sufficient understanding of the assignee."

"I don't know much about you... Actually, the reason why I chose you, the lowest-ranking counselor at the time, to command the city defense against all opinions, was selfish."

Chen Ze was silent, what he couldn't understand was this.

The other party has only met him once, and because his assessment task was assigned by Hua Lao of Bo'an City, he is very relieved to entrust the life and death of Xiyun City to his hands?

It's a bit exaggerated anyway.

Moreover, Mr. Jing once said at that time that when the war ended, if both of them were still alive, he would tell Chen Ze the reason.

However, Chen Ze didn't know the reason, but he first heard that Mr. Jing would resign because of this decision, which made him even more confused.

He didn't speak, and was waiting for Mr. Jing's next words, but the other party seemed to be lost in thought, and didn't intend to continue.

An unspeakable silence filled the air.

It wasn't until Mr. Jing turned around that Chen Ze was surprised to see the deep sorrow on the other's face.

"Mr. Jing, you..."

Chen Ze opened his mouth, not knowing where to start.

On the contrary, Mr. Jing said slowly with such a sad look: "You know that I know Mr. Hua, right?"

Chen Ze nodded. He had asked before, but Mr. Jing only acquiesced in knowing Mr. Hua, and didn't say much else.

"Hua Lao..." Mr. Jing shook his head and sighed, "For me, Hua Lao should be called... teacher!"

"teacher?"

Chen Ze frowned, slightly surprised, but it made sense after careful consideration.

Mr. Yi Jing asked Mr. Hua about the emotions he showed last time, and he could probably guess that the relationship between the two is unusual.

"My achievements today are all due to my teacher's efforts to cultivate me. Maybe you don't know the real identity of my teacher?"

Mr. Jing's eyes were full of memory, and he sighed very much.

"Hua Lao's true identity..."

Chen Zelue pondered for a while and said, "I have been speculating about this for a long time."

Mr. Jing said noncommittally: "Let's listen."

Chen Zedao: "There are three wise men and two generals in today's empire. The three wise men naturally refer to the three great masters, while the second generals are two great generals. Apart from General Sima who guards Qingfeng City, there is another one!"

His eyes flickered slightly and he said: "The other general has rarely shown himself in recent years, and he claims that he is old and is in a state of seclusion in the mountains and forests."

At this point, he paused, looked at Mr. Jing, but saw that the other party just raised his chin, and signaled: "Continue."

Chen Ze said again: "I have also carefully read the life and achievements of this great general, and I know that he is a rare all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and his wisdom is even comparable to Qingyang Sanzhi, so in the past Nian is recognized as a wise general by the four great empires!"

"Unfortunately, five years ago, this great general suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight, and there has been no news since then."

Chen Ze sighed lightly: "Although the general's surname is not Hua, there is a Chinese character in his name taboo, and his name, Mr. Jing, I think you will be familiar with it!"

Mr. Jing lowered his eyebrows and said respectfully, "Yes, he is my teacher... Shen Tuhua!"

"It really is him?"

Even though he had already guessed, Chen Ze was still shocked by Mr. Jing's affirmation.

That wise general of the four great empires, that great general of the empire who is said to have retired to the mountains, actually served in the military aircraft department of Bo'an City?

"Aren't you very strange, obviously the teacher is in Bo'an City, but why doesn't everyone know that he is the chief officer of the Military Aircraft Department?"

Mr. Jing could see the confusion in Chen Ze's heart, so he couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Then you must not know that in the past five years, you are the first person to accept the teacher's assessment face to face?"

"Me? The first?"

Chen Ze shook his head. At that time, he had just crossed over and went to Senhu Town with the Wei family convoy. He really didn't know much about the Bo'an Military Aircraft Department.

"The teacher lives in seclusion at the Bo'an military aircraft. Few people know about it. In the past five years, most of the counselors and generals who participated in the assessment were tested by Xu Shenling. Ordinary people can't see the teacher at all."

Mr. Jing looked deeply at Chen Ze and said, "And on your mission document, the inscription is written by the teacher himself. This is the first time in the past five years!"

Chen Ze was silent, and the chubby oily face of the fat shopkeeper could not help appearing in his mind.

At that time, when he went to the military plane, the first thing he saw was Xu Cheng and Xu Canling who became the shopkeeper of the restaurant. Under the leadership of the other party, he went to the second floor to meet Mr. Hua.

According to what Mr. Jing said, the previous examiners were all taken by Xu Canling, then it would be impossible for him to lead himself directly to Elder Hua, unless it was...

"Have you thought about it?"

Mr. Jing waited for him for a while, and then said: "Through this incident, I know that the teacher is interested in you, but in today's world, there are probably very few people or things that can make the teacher a little bit interested. "

"It is precisely because of this that I handed over the troops of Xiyun City to you, and let you handle the affairs of defending the city with full authority. It can be said that I did this because of the teacher, not you."

"I..." Chen Ze frowned, "I still don't understand."

Yes, even if it was Mr. Hua who became interested in him at the beginning, and then ordered Xu Shenling to bring him to the front for a personal assessment, but what does this mean?

Mr. Hua just gave him an assessment task. Could this be the reason for Mr. Jing to hand over the military power to himself?

"An incident happened five years ago."

Mr. Jing sighed: "Because of this incident, the teacher was disheartened, and finally resigned from the post of general, and no longer cares about the affairs of the empire, and his place of retreat is the... Military Aircraft Department of Bo'an City."

Chen Ze nodded, not surprised at this weird place of retreat.

The so-called hermit in the city, who would have thought that a generation of wise generals would become the chief officer of the Military Aircraft Department after retiring from seclusion. Thinking of the hangover look on his face when he met Mr. Hua that day, it is probably just a vacant job. .

"Since then, the teacher has never expressed interest in anything, and his whole heart is ashamed."

Mr. Jing shook his head, with a sad look on his face.

"so!"

He changed the subject, and when he looked at Chen Ze again, his eyes flickered brightly, "In the past five years, you are the only one who can arouse the teacher's interest, so no matter what, I will give you a push!"

"Regardless of the reason, regardless of talent, or even the survival of the entire West Cloud City, I am willing to gamble for you!"
