Chapter 8 The Duel Under the Street Lamp (Part 1)
Chapter 8 Duel under the street lights (Part 1)
In trouble.
Leifon and Jack looked at each other, put down their glasses and walked towards the two who were intercepted. Luca pushed away the young ladies surrounding him. Turner left the sofa in the corner without saying a word. Shaci wiped his mouth and put down the plate in his hand. The other dragon knights also left the person they were talking to and walked towards this side without saying a word.
"Please give in." Lei Feng politely pushed away the two army officers and stood beside Charlotte.
"What happened?" Jack asked as he looked at the army officers, "Mr. Jack!" Eli Sabaya saw him and immediately hid behind him.
"I just want to ask Miss Elisaba to dance."
An arrogant army officer spoke. He was about twenty-two or three years old, with the rank of major hanging on his dark blue uniform. Standing with him were four young officers, each of whom reached the rank of lieutenant. There was no doubt that these people were from an asset family.
"I don't want to dance with you at all! Ruins!" Elisabai emerged from behind Jack and shouted unhappily. The guests around him were attracted by her voice and all looked over whispered.
"Yili Sabai..."
The young officer's self-esteem was seriously hurt and his face turned ugly.
"Mr. Major, have you heard it? Miss Elisaba rejected your invitation. If you still have the sense of a gentleman, please don't bother her." Jack squinted his eyes and smiled, with a sarcastic tone. This is the relationship between the Air Force and the Army. Both sides will not miss any opportunity to mock each other.
"Note your attitude in your words! Lieutenant! You offended a noble army major in the Imperial Empire!" The young army officer was furious. If he was a beast, then Jack must have become a Chinese food in the stomach.
"puff……"
"hehe……"
"Ha ha……"
A burst of laughter was heard. Five army officers turned around and were shocked to find that they were surrounded by young officers wearing black and red air force uniforms.
Jack looked at the Major Officer arrogantly, and smiled contemptuously with a corner of his mouth: "Great Army Major? Are you?"
Although the army, navy and air force of the Zeon Empire belong to the Imperial Defense Forces, they all have different internal systems, so the status of representatives of the ranks of each branch is different. For example, an army major is qualified to command five hundred men, or a cavalry team (eighty to one hundred cavalry), but in this era of unprecedented importance to the vast land of navigation trade, his status is not as good as that of the naval major of the land of a destroyer or gunboat, because of the combat effectiveness of the five hundred men, or a cavalry team.
It is not as good as a destroyer or gunboat equipped with twelve artillery gunboats. However, the combat effectiveness of a destroyer or gunboat is not as good as a fighting dragon or mountain dragon-level flying dragon, so the status of the naval major is not as good as the Air Force Dragon Knight who commands the flying dragon (regardless of the rank of this dragon knight). Although this statement is a bit one-sided and arbitrary, it does not deviate from the facts. So when the army major tried to oppress with his rank, all the dragon knights found it absurd and ridiculous.
"Bastard!" The Army Major pressed his hand on the hilt of the saber with a furious thunder.
"Am I wrong?" Jack narrowed his eyes dangerously. The Dragon Knights sneered. Even though Luca had a gentle personality, he did not say anything to dissuade him. The five army officers felt obvious pressure and suppressed the uneasy mood and pressed the hilt of the knife. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and Charlotte looked at Lei Feng with some anxiety.
"Okay! That's it!" A gentle and majestic voice interrupted the confrontation between the two sides. Governor Swo lined up and walked over. He smiled and spread his hands to both sides and smiled: "Everyone, it's a rare wonderful night, don't let unpleasant things disturb it, okay?"
"Hmph!" Army Major Ruins snorted angrily, but had no intention of stopping. Seeing the pretense, Raven nodded to Governor Swoo.
"Sorry, Governor, we will restrain ourselves."
"Hahaha. Young man. I understand." Governor Swo nodded and smiled, then looked at Army Major Ruins. He scolded in a low tone: "Ruins, they are the VIPs I invited tonight. Don't embarrass me!"
“…Let’s go and see!”
Major Runes glared at Jack fiercely, and then glanced at Raven and Charlotte coldly. Then he turned around and strode away from the hall.
"Hahaha... Everyone have fun." Governor Swo smiled as if nothing had happened, and said with a deep face before turning around and leaving.
"Yili Sabai, please give me some!"
"Dad..." Eli Sabai looked at Governor Swo's back with some timidity, turned to look at Jack, and then followed him slowly.
"That Ruins is the Governor." Rayvon said, looking at Governor Swo's back, Jack smiled slightly.
Governor Swo's family was an old nobleman, and being able to take such an important position as Governor Gibrott means that he must be the mainstay of the imperial aristocratic faction. The most closely controlled by the aristocratic faction was first the army, followed by the navy, and the air force was firmly controlled by the Regent Hamankahn.
About half an hour later, Elisha Bai returned to the hall with red eyes. Jack comforted her a few words and got the news she wanted. As they expected, this army major named Ruins was from a military family. His father was a lieutenant general and a friend of Governor Swo. The two families seemed to have a marriage intention. (Elisha Bai was almost fifteen years old, and he was officially aged at the age of sixteen and could get married.)
The dance ended when the bell rang at ten o'clock, and Rayvon and his friends said goodbye to Governor Swo, who sent a carriage to take them back to the barracks.
"I had a good night tonight, Miss Yilishabai is very beautiful."
“Yes, the wine and the food are good.”
"Except those Army guys are more annoying."
The horse's hooves beat rhythmically on the pavement of bluestone, and the pleasant bells echoed on the streets at night. The young dragon knights were still obsessed with the luxurious dance party, until the sound of the horse's hooves suddenly disappeared and the carriage stopped.
"What's going on?" Sha Ci opened the curtains in confusion, Jack opened the car door and smiled: "Of course there is something in the way."
More than a dozen army officers stood in line under the street lights and stopped the direction of the carriage. The coachman timidly grabbed the reins until Lei Feng and the others walked off the carriage.
"Sir..." The coachman's voice trembled a little, and Lei Fengxiang smiled slightly: "Don't worry, it will be resolved soon."
A white glove threw it at Leifon and the others, and Major Ruins pulled out his saber under the street light.
"Air Force bastards! Jack Sparrow! Accept it! This is the anger of the Army that you humiliated! Don't let us think you are cowards who can't fight without the flying dragon!"
The tiger is still writing, and we can’t update two times today, so we will definitely update two times tomorrow.
