Chapter 144: Emperor's Distress

Although it was late at night, the palace was still awake.
George Atlanta sent away the queen to remind him of the maid who was sleeping. Although the eyes had grown thick because of drowsiness, the empire was in an eventful season. As an emperor, how could you be lazy?
Yawning, George patted his cheek, forced himself to invigorate, and then picked up the papers around him.
The cover of the file is a clear military logo, and the emperor still guessed what was inside, even if he hadn't opened it for a closer look.
Sure enough, the eastward army that returned the report used a large space to describe the changes of the enemy country in the recent period. At the same time, it was vaguely stated that it would be difficult to defend the country based on the current strength of the army.
Reports that span dozens of pages are actually summed up in one sentence: me, the army, money!
Except for the one in the hand, there are more than a dozen copies of the report, which are all requests of the Imperial Military Department for money.
Well, if they were just asking for money, George Atlanta wouldn't have such a headache.
The empire was rich and the treasury was full of gold coins, but George Atlanta understood that even if he distributed all the gold coins in the treasury to the military, these people would still write in other names.
Because the ultimate purpose of these guys is not gold at all, but to fight for power again!
Although the news of Edmond's distress was suppressed, it is not a secret to high-level military personnel.
Out of Edmund's accumulated prestige, these people were fairly peaceful at first, but over time, and with the turbulence of the surrounding countries, the ambitions of some people, like the weeds in spring, began to grow wildly.
The empire cannot be without a commander in one day, especially in wartime, since Edmund can't wake up, even if the emperor is unwilling to use it, he must also appoint a new empire marshal.
Against this background, everything who considers himself qualified to take Edmund's seat on Marshal's throne has taken various measures to enhance his sense of existence.
The military that has fallen into the struggle for power and power has been completely confused. George Atlanta has a headache for this. If he is left unchecked and continues in this situation, perhaps without the enemy ’s hands, the Greek Empire has fallen apart.
Leaving the report aside, George was lost in thought.
There are two ways to solve the chaos in the military: one is to rescue Edmond, the old marshal recovers and regains control of the imperial military power, which is logical; the second is to appoint a new marshal of the empire, and all the chaos originated from the suspension of the marshal throne Pending, as long as a new Marshal of the Empire is born, there is a high probability that this chaos will stop.
The first method has been going on, whether it is the royal family or the college alliance, they are trying their best to try to restore Edmund's sanity, but so far, it has still been ineffective.
As for the second method, it seems relatively simple, but it is very difficult.
The military has no shortage of talents, but apart from Edmund's accident, he really can't find a strength, prestige can convince everyone, and loyal to the royal family.
Those who claim to be qualified to take over are either not strong enough, their wrists are too low, or they are ambitious for the entire empire.
If the first two Georges Atlanta can still accept it, but those ambitious guys, he is absolutely incapable of controlling the entire imperial army, otherwise God knows that when he wakes up, the emperor can't do it safely.
George Atlanta really has some regrets now that he was allowed to take the risk of Edmond. If this loyal and martial empire marshal is still there, how can he be so passive now?
It was getting quieter outside. Although his emperor did not sleep, except for the guards on duty and the maids, the others apparently had already fallen asleep early.
If possible, George Atlanta also planned to take a break, but when he saw the thick pile of documents on the desk that had not yet had time to deal with, he had no choice but to give up this tempting idea.
However, he also understood that the situation could not continue like this, the military was becoming more and more chaotic, and he needed to deal with more and more things. Even if he significantly reduced his rest time, the emperor was not a god, and his energy was limited.
So, before he falls completely, the military must have a decision!
Although reluctant, George Atlanta really got the idea of ​​changing coaches.
Even if the person chosen is not as good as Edmund, and even if the new Marshal of the Empire may not be able to convince the crowd, as long as it can help him share some of the pressure, that is good.
Gritted a list from the bottom of the case table, which was drawn up half a month ago, with the names of four military leaders.
Perhaps they are not the strongest in the military, but for George Atlanta, they are already the best candidates today.
Putting everything else down, he said that all he had to do was pick the best candidate from the four-man list tonight.
After thinking about it, George Atlanta finally used the pen to circle a name in the list. If there is no accident, the appointment will be changed back tomorrow. The Greek Empire will also welcome a new Empire Marshal.
"Come, why is it so noisy outside?" As soon as I lowered my pen, there was a messy voice outside, which made George Atlanta very dissatisfied, and immediately called the guard to scold.
"Back to your Majesty, the news came before, President Clive and Master Rodney entered the palace overnight, and asked to see you!"
The guard's words instantly changed George Atlanta's face.
No matter Clive or Rodney, they are not the kind of character that is so idle and ran out late at night. Taking them as humans and entering the palace late at night, there must be a major event. Think of the task assigned to them. George Atlanta is even more worried.
However, the emperor had the majesty of the emperor. Even if he was uneasy in his heart, he could never reveal it to outsiders.
"Please come in two masters ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Soon, under the leadership of the guard, Clive and Rodney appeared in the study, but what George had never expected was that they did not appear alone, but With a weak and unconscious soldier!
George Atlanta looked at them with a puzzled look, waiting for them to give an answer.
"His Majesty, this man was brought back from the Durga Valley. He was just like Marshal Edmond, confused and very dangerous ..."
Before Clive had finished speaking, George Atlanta had stood up in shock.
Since this person can be brought before him, it can only be explained that the abnormal state of his body has been lifted, so it can be seen that the Academy Alliance has at least the key to solving this crisis.
Thinking of Edmond's hope of recovery, the Empire did not have to endure an inappropriate marshal. George Atlanta was so excited that the emperor's handling became unshaken, and he was thrown out of the clouds for a while. Superhero Academy System
