Mage Joan

Facing John Andre’s sharp questioning, Laval remained silent, but his facial muscles twitched violently due to the extreme pain in his heart.

"George Vassar knows it well, of course, but he has done justice to give you back the honor that should belong to you?"

Andre then threw a series of cross-examinations.

"Unfortunately, he didn't clarify the truth and uphold justice. Instead, he deprived you of the honor that you deserved. He used it to smear Charles Gates and dress Gates as a hero with a halo on his head. Is this true? "

"What happens afterwards? A fake is a fake, and no matter how gorgeous the mediocrity is, it will not become a real hero."

"After the First World War in Port-Prince, Gates' reputation was discredited. This paper hero missed the stuffing and killed more than 20,000 Continental Army soldiers. As the commander-in-chief, isn't George Vassar responsible?"

"Because of his injustice, he brought Gates, a veritable mediocrity, to the altar, planting the bane of future fiasco, and at the same time burying you, a hero who can really fight a tough battle, George Watt. Sa can't escape the blame, but did he say something sorry to you?"

"I'm afraid not?"

"To be honest, if the Continental Congress had appointed you as the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army, instead of electing George Vassar, who was so sloppy in warfare, he would only compete with sloppy politicians, we might have been expelled long ago. The New World, how can there be today’s scenery?"

"You may not believe it. In fact, I personally appreciate the spirit advocated by the Declaration of Independence. Unfortunately, the Continental Congress that put forward the Declaration of Independence was full of hypocrites with different expressions. This is reflected in the treatment of black slaves. Especially obvious, extremely ironic!"

"Because there are too many hypocrites and shameless politicians like Jefferson and Vassar in your leadership, and your truly talented people like you are buried, your career will go astray and you will not be destined to succeed. !"

"I have said everything I wanted to say, sir, do you have anything else to say?"

With this sharp attack of John Andre, every word pierced Laval's heart, like a huge boulder, stirring up stormy waves in his heart.

After a long silence, Laval finally nodded dejectedly.

"Forget it, Colonel Andre... just do as you said!"

…

In the midsummer of August, the setting sun slanted to the west, there was no wind in the sultry forest, and the monotonous cicadas on the trees made people drowsy.

Patrick Ferguson is wearing a camouflage cloak and crawling on the bush-grown hills. The magic ring worn by his left ring finger has been activated, making him continue to be protected by "Advanced Invisibility".

Ferguson has been ambushing for an afternoon in this bush that is suitable for hiding his traces and easy to monitor the downhill road. The old man who has accompanied him for many years, the mythical sniper rifle "Southern Cross", is set up at a suitable angle to ensure that the gun is shot. The bullet can accurately hit any target in Ferguson's field of vision.

On the opposite side of the hill is a dense forest. One of the big trees hides Ferguson’s partner John Andre, who also protects his body with "Advanced Invisibility", but his posture is very relaxed: sitting on the tree with crossed legs On the branch, with his left hand resting behind his head, and his right hand playing with a gold pocket watch, as if waiting for a lover to come for a tryst.

The hour hand on the pocket watch had already pointed to five o'clock in the afternoon, and the appointed time was about to come.

Last night, John Andre finally did not waste his words, and successfully persuaded Benedict Laval to write a sincerely worded invitation letter to the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army according to his instructions.

In this letter, Laval first spent a lot of pen and ink analyzing the current severe situation facing the Continental Army, expressing his concerns about the prospects of an independent revolution, and then proposed some positive measures on how to break the predicament for your reference.

Next, Laval turned his pen and frankly admitted that he had made a serious mistake, and he was not qualified to write to the commander-in-chief for advice.

Fortunately, the peaceful life in the small town healed his pain, and calmed the restless and paranoid mood. He deeply reflected on his past words and deeds, and realized that he was wrong with the self-proclaimed aristocratic background, arrogant and arrogant. The soldiers mingled together, lacked due respect to their superiors, and even publicly questioned the incompetent commander-in-chief, which is really arrogant to the point!

Recalling all the reckless words and deeds in the past, Laval expressed deep shame in the letter. He also said that the situation in Alfheim was even more difficult for him to let go. General Green was unable to support himself. The commander-in-chief must provide more support to the southern compatriots. .

This was said from the collar of Laval, a northern general. It is very rare. John André expected that George Vassar would be deeply moved, and then changed his view of Laval.

At the end of this letter, Laval invited His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief to come to his home for a banquet tomorrow night to discuss in depth the prospects of the War of Independence. By the way, he implicitly expressed his desire to make a comeback and lead his troops to battle. If people pass, give him another chance to commit crimes and make meritorious service.

After the letter was sent, as Andre predicted, George Vassar personally wrote back the letter that evening, with sincere touch between the lines.

In fact, Vassar has always admired Laval's military commanding talents, and he has taken the initiative to release goodwill many times before trying to establish friendship with Laval.

Unfortunately, just as Laval confessed in the letter, he was too arrogant, too arrogant, and too paranoid, believing that Vassar had robbed him of his commander-in-chief, no matter how friendly Vassar was to him, he just couldn’t look down upon him. People treat kindness as a hypocritical flattery or even ill-intentioned bribery, and dismiss it.

George Vassar was also very helpless with his attitude. He had to be open-minded and tolerant. It would be strange if he changed his leadership and didn't fix Laval to his death!

Nowadays, the senior officer class of the Continental Army is facing the embarrassment of being indifferent.

Charles Gates was defeated in the first battle in Princeport and became a prisoner; Isaac Hooker surrendered to the enemy and treason; Nathaniel Green and Zion’s sister and brother hurried south to fight the fire, and the commander of the Continental Army Headquarters can be a single side... There is only one Magni Poitán left.

"Madman" Magni is undoubtedly a brave general, but this man has two weaknesses.

One is too brave.

Magni's style is just like his nickname, and the string in his head is not working at all times, which is very sad.

The second is that Magni’s background is not very good. From the Asa tribe in the Algonquin Valley, his soldiers are all aborigines, and their skin color, ethnicity, cultural traditions and even ideas are all similar to white military officers from colonies. There is a deep diaphragm.
