Suddenly, he smiled.

"You kid, you always look so reckless!"

"But," he held the cup in his hand, and in his eyes, a flame burned fiercely like a wildfire!

"It's time to take action!"

……

Xiao Lie is ready to leave Chang'an City.

In the past three years, as the strongest and most meritorious of the Five Pole War Gods, his reputation and connections in the military have always been very good.

However, because he was sent to the borderland, many people did not dare to come to his farewell banquet.

It was Chen Jiahao and Di Fei who organized a private party at home in their name.

Those who came to attend the meeting were all officers with whom Xiao Lie had always had a good relationship in the army.

They also have a special identity, that is, they are former subordinates of the former commander Zheng Yongxiu.

The banquet was very sumptuous, and the three men took out all kinds of rare wines and drinks to entertain their colleagues.

At first everyone was a little restrained, but as the wine went down their stomachs, they gradually relaxed.

"General Xiao, think back to when we were together, it was so glorious! You were in charge of the Five Extreme War Gods and their special forces. I was in charge of the Sixth Division of the City Defense Army."

"It's a pity that now, hey..."

The speaker was a Mediterranean general who had been the general of the sixth section of the city defense army.

However, the city's defenses were almost completely annihilated when the Wuluan Empire invaded. When the army was reorganized, he was stripped of most of his authority.

Now, he, like Xiao Lie, is at the most frustrated time in his life.

Xiao Lie was holding a bottle of wine in his hand. Seeing that the wine was almost finished, he gave Di Fei a look.

Di Fei walked over and locked the door of the box from the inside.

This private room is very large, with three tables inside. There are about twenty or thirty people there, all of whom are backbones of the army.

"boom!"

The sound of the door closing was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for everyone to hear.

Everyone in the box looked at Di Fei. An officer, his face flushed from drinking, pointed at Di Fei with a bottle of wine and asked, "General Di, why are you closing the door?"

At this time, Xiao Lie stood up, and Chen Jiahao next to him also stood up.

The Five Pole War Gods represent the highest combat power in the entire Northwest Region after Li Changgong.

The three of them standing in front of the box gave everyone a great sense of oppression, and also made them gradually realize that today's banquet was not ordinary.

Xiao Lie walked to the center of the crowd, first scanning everyone with a serious look, then slowly spoke.

"I didn't call you all here today to practice for me!"

"I don't need to explain much about what's happened in the region recently. You all know it!"

"The commander no longer trusts anyone. Even me, Xiao Lie, will be purged by him!"

"Everyone here was promoted by the former commander-in-chief, Marshal Zheng Yongxiu! We are all part of his faction."

"After I leave, I'm sure everyone's next days will not be easy."

Originally, everyone present had some dissatisfied expressions, but after hearing what Xiao Lie said, their faces became solemn.

Many people lowered their heads and frowned, and their drunkenness dissipated a lot.

At this moment, the senior Mediterranean general shouted, "General Xiao Lie! Do you know what you are doing now?"

Xiao Lie immediately replied, "Of course I know what I'm doing!"

His eyes were filled with the arrogance of a hawk: "The situation is clear! We, the former commander's former subordinates, can no longer be tolerated by Li Changgong."

"He is now arresting people without any reason."

"For three years, your authority has been repeatedly stripped away."

He looked at the Mediterranean Sea and said, "Brother Chen, you were a general in charge of a 20,000-man army before. How much power do you have now?"

"The best outcome for you right now is just to resign as soon as possible and live out the rest of your life in the house you were assigned. You might not even live to see a natural death!"
