1971
Bloody nails, smashed fingers.
The Minister of War's expression was so gloomy that he could shed tears!
He thought about the beginning and the process, but he didn't think about the damn ending.
The first servant had passed out. The severe pain caused his brain to activate self-protection measures. It was as if the person had died and suddenly lost all the strength to struggle.
Man, that's weird.
The second servant began to resist violently. Everyone knew that if the nail was driven through his finger, half of his finger would be lost in the future.
Servants are all servants. If your hands are not flexible enough, it will be difficult to find a job, not only to continue to serve the Minister of War and his family, but whether you can survive will become a luxury.
He didn't want to sit in that chair, he resisted, he struggled, he tried to escape!
Several Blackstone field officers surrounded him and beat him so hard that he had to sit on the chair in obedience out of fear of further beatings.
After enduring more fear and pain, I still didn't escape in the end.
Why struggle in the first place?
Why did you struggle but didn't resist until the end?
As he kept saying "I don't know", nails were hammered into his fingers one by one. When they hit the first phalanx of the third finger, he fainted.
Next, there was no color on people's faces, they were saying the same words and suffering the same pain.
The Minister of War also had a terrifying expression on his face. He was ready to endure the torture. It was just a few fingers. If he endured it for a while, he could prove his innocence and maybe still have a chance to survive.
He convinced himself that all this was for a better life in the future.
Apart from him, only the housekeeper knows part of the architectural drawings of the palace. In other words, as long as he survives, those royal treasures will always be his personal possession!
With so much money, he can live a comfortable life without even using his hands for the rest of his life.
"You have to hold back and don't let go!"
He said to himself in his mind.
He didn't notice that the cook standing in front of him was trembling all over.
Compared with other rude servants, the chef's skills are obviously in his own hands!
Once his hands become useless, the cook may not be able to display even half of his cooking skills.
He was covered in sweat and even leaked a little urine.
The people in front were thrown aside after being tortured, and he was next.
He didn't dare to struggle because he also understood.
The person who resisted and struggled in front not only could not escape torture, but also suffered severe beatings. What he was thinking about now was how to escape through other means.
He was pressed on the chair, his hands were fixed on the iron execution table with cowhide ropes, and the officer in charge of the execution had already aimed a nail at the tip of his index finger!
He could even feel the tips of the nails stinging his skin!
"I don't want to repeat every sentence. You can say it, or you can not say it, or you can say like they do that you don't know anything."
As he spoke, he raised his hammer high. At this moment, the cook's darting eyes caught sight of the gardener standing behind him.
He suddenly shouted, "I made a discovery..."
There were smiles on everyone's faces. The officer put down his hammer and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket with a smile, "Do you want to smoke?"
The cook nodded repeatedly, "Pump!"
The officer lit one, lit it and stuffed it into his mouth, "Your news better have some value. If you try to deceive us, your end will be even worse!"
The cook shook his head repeatedly, "I don't dare, I definitely don't dare!"
"That gardener is not from our manor. He suddenly appeared when we came here this time. He said he was the gardener from Madam's side, but I don't believe it!"
"He must have been arranged by the master, or he must have some special identity or something!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the Minister of War for an instant. He was extremely frightened at this time!
No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure out that he would be here and something would go wrong!
The officer walked up to the Minister of War and looked at it carefully.
The makeup technology of this era is actually very limited. To put it bluntly, it is similar to oil painting, it is the accumulation of colors.
The officer quickly saw some clues and said, "Go get some water and wash his face."
The Minister of War struggled briefly, but was punched in the waist and gave up.
His face was washed clean in no time, and the cook standing aside, still smoking, didn't even notice that the butt of the cigarette had been burned out.
He shivered violently, vomited and spit out the cigarette butt in his mouth.
But even so, my lips were a little burnt.
The gardener in front of him is none other than the "master" he is most familiar with!
But the next second, he pointed at the Minister of War and shouted, "That's him, he is the Minister of War, he is..."
The Minister of War glanced at the cook indifferently, then straightened his chest and admitted his identity.
Within minutes, Lynch knew the result, dialed the number there and asked the Secretary of War to answer.
He met the Minister of War several times, during autumn hunting and attending various banquets in the palace.
At that time, the minister of war and other nobles had a very cold attitude towards Lynch. They even privately tried to obstruct the then emperor, not wanting him to confer Lynch an imperial noble title.
The reversal of identities in a few years gives people a very strange feeling.
"I thought it would be one or two more trips before you left the island."
Lynch's voice was calm, as if she was chatting with him.
The Minister of War now had a separate room and was attended to, and he changed into more respectable clothes, as at Gevra.
He looked at the scenery outside the window and the crowds of people at the port market, feeling quite emotional, "I'm afraid I won't be able to leave if I wait any longer."
What he means is that once the Federation establishes an advantage on the Pengeo battlefield, the Pengeo officers and soldiers on the island are likely to become aggressive.
They can still maintain order now because they still have some hope for the war in Pengeo's homeland.
After the war is won, they can leave and withdraw their troops calmly. Whether they return to their homeland or stay in Amelia is a good choice.
But if the war fails, they will be war criminals. They may be disarmed by the federals who come over and be tried on the spot!
You must know that during the period when they captured Gefra Island, these people were not good gentlemen.
They did a lot of things that seriously harmed the residents here, and they probably killed more people than Gaevra's soldiers died in the war!
Once they stand in the dock as war criminals, their only fate will be death!
Especially the middle and high-level people in the army, they will definitely not be able to escape.
So if you wait a little longer, once the situation takes a bad turn, the commander-in-chief who could still resist not taking action against the Minister of War will no longer abide by the rules!
If they really take action, the Minister of War will not survive, and neither will the rest of his family!
So after the first successful smuggling, he immediately participated in the second smuggling.
Unexpectedly, it still failed.
Lynch chuckled softly, with a hint of sarcasm, "You know, my daughter..."
"Maybe you don't know it yet, but Feilin has become my adopted daughter."
"She told me all the bad things you did to her while you were in Gefra."
"Honestly, you are very brave, but that was before all this happened. I can forgive you for your previous mistakes."
"But you should also understand what you have to pay."
The Minister of War was a little surprised, and for a moment he was a little angry!
Queen Feline's uncooperation has always hindered his plan. She would rather be someone else's daughter than his own wife...
Sometimes people always blame others for their failures and mistakes.
He took two deep breaths and said, "What do you want?"
Lynch's voice is greedy!
"all!"
The Secretary of War fell into silence, but Lynch's voice still sounded.
"Those treasures of the royal family, and other things that you have hidden, these things can help your family live safely."
"You don't have to threaten me with the idea that your things will disappear completely when you die. If you think this is useful to me, I will respect your choice."
"Let you, everyone in your family, and the wealth that may suddenly appear at any time go to hell!"
"You know, I don't like lying and I won't lie."
The Minister of War was very reluctant to part with him.
Like Lynch, like everyone else, he knew what a fortune that was!
After a long silence, the Minister of War seemed to have made a decision, but he did not agree immediately, but asked a question.
"What are you going to do with me and my family if you know where those things are?"
That's a good sign, and Lynch's voice is livelier.
"You will have a great life in Nagaril, trust me, I can guarantee that!"
"But you and your family can't leave my sight. As long as you don't do anything that violates the agreement between us, I guarantee that you and your family will at least be rich!"
Captivity may be the best option, and the Minister of War no longer hesitates in his mind.
As Lynch said, those things will not disappear with his death. In other words, they will eventually see the light of day again.
Maybe in an earthquake, maybe in the reconstruction process of a palace.
And he and his family only have one life. If they lose it, they will never come back again!
He happily told Lynch where he hid those things, and Lynch also said that he would verify it as soon as possible. He also said that he would arrive in Nagaril in a few days, and they could meet each other then. .
Lynch came to Nagaril for two purposes.
The first purpose, now that the thing has been found, the next step is to transport it out.
The second purpose was to meet Kaiser.
