Chapter 422: Things are impermanent (Ⅰ)

Recognizing this reality, Joan raised a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
If it were not by coincidence that I overheard the conversation between Jumonville and Antonioni, I am afraid that I and Conti are still digging in the tunnel at this moment, ignorantly and ignorantly trying to destroy the good situation, thinking that in the rescue of prisoners of war, they are actually sending them to Pushing in the fire pit... This is simply a free black humor.
As a member of all living beings, personal efforts are too small compared to the unpredictable fate.
This is not just a "smallness" at the level of competence. The greater sorrow lies in the perspective.
An ordinary person cannot have the "God's perspective" of omniscience and omnipotence. From the personal perspective, the correct decision-making is more likely to be a smart mistake.
Joan now has such a sense of absurdity, as if placed by fate, almost acting as a smart fool.
Fortunately, fate was not too cruel to him. At the last moment, he was provided with a perspective from which he could see the whole situation. By eavesdropping on the conversation between Jumonville and Antonioni, he learned that he was "good at doing bad things", and finally had time to avoid making mistakes. .
Joan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and turned back to look at Kandy. Both of them saw happiness and fear in each other's eyes.
Fortunately, the gophers led the wrong way, otherwise... they would not even dare to imagine the consequences.
At this time, in the next room, Jumonville and Antonioni had in-depth discussions on the release of prisoners of war.
It is hard to say what the reason was. General Jumonville insisted on officially drafting a "surrender letter", and only after George Vaasa signed the surrender letter would he release him and his officers and men.
Diego Antonioni thinks this is a superfluous one, but considering his friend's unwillingness, he finally accepted his request.
In the following time, General Jumonville dictated that Antonioni wrote the surrender book. In order to show dignity, this document was written in aquamarine text, rather than the more sacred Ashan Empire text in diplomatic occasions.
Both Joan and Kandy don't understand the language of Sea Blue very much, and they don't care much about the specific terms of the surrender book.
Anyway, the prisoners of war are about to be released. What's the point of filling up a surrender book now?
It is nothing more than to make General Jumonville look better.
At dawn, Joan finally saw Lieutenant Colonel Vasa again. He was personally invited by Antonioni from the prisoner of war camp and ordered to sign a surrender in exchange for the freedom of all prisoners of war.
The situation evolved like this, and George Vassar was puzzled, his haggard face full of confusion.
He is ready to go to jail for a long time. The worst is expected to be sentenced to hang. The slightly better result is to be sold to the slave market. I don’t know which plantation or mine to work hard for the rest of my life. The most optimistic estimate is also The family paid a lot of money to redeem him.
In this era, noble knights or rich children captured during the war can often be freed by paying a large ransom.
But he never dreamed that there was such a good thing-no need to pay anything, just sign a name on the file to pat the and leave!
Of course, signing the surrender is not a glorious thing, and it is a big stain for officers. But what is this little grievance that is more free than the freedom of all prisoners of war?
With such a mood, Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa didn't even bother to listen to Antonioni's translation of the obscure and murky clauses in the surrender book, and when he mentioned the quill, he signed his name.
After signing, Antonioni politely shook hands with Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa and escorted him back to the prisoner of war camp, promising to release all prisoners of war after dawn.
...
Joan and Conti left the corner with a sense of success and loss, and returned to the Jackal camp.
Until dawn, they witnessed all the prisoners of war, including Lieutenant Colonel Vasa, Major Green, and Magni, out of the warehouse, retrieve their horses and weapons, and left the barracks under the close surveillance of the navy border guards. All night's heart counted back in his belly.
Now that the prisoners of war have regained their freedom, there is no need for Joan and Kandy to remain in the enemy camp. After blessing the "invisibility technique", they quietly slip out of the camp and become eagles and falcons. .
Qiao An spread his wings and looked at the familiar figures in the distance, but also felt a touch of loss when he was relieved.
If you compare the fortress of Nisesi to a stage, and compare the conflicts and disputes that have occurred on this stage to a big show, then let alone say the protagonist, not even the supporting role, but a spectator outside the spotlight That's it.
Thinking about being born and dying and going deep into the enemy camp, I made up my mind to sacrifice my life to rescue the prisoners of war, but it turned out to be nothing.
Regardless of whether he is here or not, General Jumonville will release the prisoners of war. In this way, what is the value of going to the enemy camp with Kandy?
But when he thought about it, Joan was relieved.
He returned to the front line, not to show the acting to anyone, nor to prove his courage, but he was worried.
Now that the captured comrades have regained their freedom, the purpose of this trip has been achieved. As for whether this result is directly related to the efforts made by yourself and Kandy, it is actually not important.
At this time, Joan and Kandy had flown over the released prisoners of war. The eagle and falcon flying together attracted people's curiosity.
Kandy landed first, running back to his elder brother cheering and running towards his brother.
Magni is also a pleasant encounter, turning over and jumping off his horseback, spread his arms around his sister in his arms, tears in his eyes excitedly.
Joan landed and walked back to George Vassar with a thousand words, but he didn't know where to start, and finally raised his hand in silence to salute him.
Lieutenant Colonel Vasa was deeply touched by the seemingly indifferent move of the juvenile mage, immediately turned over and dismounted, solemnly returned a military salute, almost choked with tears and said, "Joan, you have worked hard."
Behind Lieutenant Colonel Vassar, Major Green, Brothers Dingdall and all the officers and soldiers for the rest of their lives have also dismounted, saluting the entourage magistrate who should not have appeared here.
Joan restrained his excitement and continued to follow the big army.
At the same time that George Vasa and his party were released by General Louis Jumonville, Joanne had issued a "windstorm" to inform Lieutenant Colonel Anderson to come and respond.
Later in the day, the cavalry battalion led by Lieutenant Colonel Anderson met with Vasa and others on the banks of the Golden Sands, and the old friends met again after the robbery, and they all expressed endless emotions.
