Genshin Impact: Mr. Executive, please stop rolling

Chapter 69: Changes in the 9th Family, Arrival of the Scattered Soldiers

The young man who was scolded was called Kujo Masahito, the eldest son of the Kujo family and the commander-in-chief of this war.

Kujo Masahiro was humiliated like this, but there was no anger on his face. He gritted his teeth and knelt down on the ground:

"Father, I'm sorry. It's my incompetence that caused all this. I am willing to bear any punishment!"

"I will wait for the war to end before I commit suicide by disembowelment!"

Two lines of tears rolled down Kujo Masahiro's eyes, not because he was insulted, but because he felt guilty.

It was his wrong command that led to the shogunate army's successive defeats and the loss of large tracts of land and soldiers.

This is his pride as a warrior, failure means death!

As soon as these words came out, the onlookers couldn't hold their breath:

"Master, calm down. Zhengren has done his best. The Coral Palace Army is too cunning. He was just fooled!"

"Master, please calm down. Please don't sentence him to death. He is your eldest son! The hope for the future of the Kujo family!"

"Zhengren! What nonsense are you talking about? Apologize to the head of the family right now! You can try again if you fail, but if you lose your life, you will have nothing!"

"Master, Kujo Masahito failed on the front line and deserves death! Please sentence him to death immediately!"

"With twice the number of troops fighting like this, if I were you, I would have committed suicide on the battlefield! How dare you come back?"

For a moment, the silent hall suddenly became noisy.

The Jiujo family has complicated factions within it, and there are constant infighting. Now this situation has made it even more chaotic.

Kujo Takayuki was overwhelmed after listening to these suggestions.

It would be fine if they just quarreled normally, but now that the rebels are about to attack them, they are still thinking about internal fighting and power struggles!

"Snapped!"

Kujo Takayuki slammed his hands hard on the chair and cursed:

"Shut up, everyone!"

"..."

In an instant, the hall fell silent.

Kujo Takayuki suddenly felt that the whole world was at peace. He stood up, walked to Kujo Masahiro, stretched out his hand to lift him up, and said slowly:

"Zhengren, your father doesn't want to punish you, but I'm really disappointed with you! I really hope you can succeed!"

Kujo Masahiro choked with tears in his eyes and said:

"But, after all, it was my command that led to this outcome. If I don't die to atone for my sin, I will be sorry for those soldiers who sacrificed their lives!"

Kujo Takayuki shook his head, gently patted Kujo Masahiro on the shoulder, and comforted him:

"Zhengren, don't blame yourself, you are already very good. Failure is not all your fault. After all, your opponent is the genius military commander, Coral Palace Xinhai!"

"In terms of strategic planning, I'm afraid no one in the entire Inazuma can match him. I thought I could use the advantage of military strength to cut the Gordian knot and take over Kaigi Island directly."

"But I didn't expect that the Coral Palace Army was already prepared. As expected, the Coral Palace will not fight an unprepared battle. If we had known earlier, we should have torn our faces and ignored the negotiations and declared war directly."

"I'm afraid those negotiations were a smokescreen deliberately released by Coral Palace Xinhai in order to delay time and accumulate troops."

"We...were all fooled by her."

After these words were spoken, a thick shadow covered the entire hall.

The Coral Palace army with high morale, coupled with the unparalleled wisdom of the Coral Palace, seemed like an invincible army.

If this trend continues, the shogunate army will be defeated.

Kujo Takayuki glanced at everyone in the hall and said indignantly:

"Do you have any ideas for the current situation? If they are effective, there will be a huge reward!"

"Inazuma is now in a period of great turmoil. If you want to stand out, you must firmly grasp this only chance in your life. Whether you can leave your name in the history books depends on this time!"

The tone is passionate and very inspiring.

Everyone trembled when they heard the words. You looked at me, I looked at you, and everyone took a step back.

Silence fell.

The successive failures dealt a heavy blow to the self-confidence of the shogunate army. Kujo Masahiro was already the best commander among them, and he failed, so it was even more impossible for his group to win.

If you stand out now, you will not succeed, but will bring shame upon yourself!

Seeing this, Kujo Takayuki sighed helplessly:

"A bunch of trash..."

Just then, Kujo Masahito stepped forward.

Kujo Takayuki's eyes sparkled and he exclaimed:

"Oh? Zhengren, you want to take revenge? Don't worry, the Kujo family will be your solid backing!"

When everyone saw someone stepping forward, they all breathed a sigh of relief and praised:

"Zhengren has an invincible heart. Failure is the mother of success. We believe in you."

Strangely enough, the faction that had always opposed Kujo Masahito was now full of praise for him.

But Kujo Masahito's answer surprised everyone.

He knelt on his knees and said sincerely:

"Father, please revoke the family rule that puts Kujo Sara under house arrest!"

"Master, the situation is critical now. Please stop being stubborn. Her talent should not be wasted at home."

"Please release Kujo Sara!"

"Only she can lead the shogunate army to fight against the rebels!"

"There is no other way!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent, and one could even hear one's breathing!

……

During this month of war, another major event occurred.

Zhidong reached an agreement with Inazuma, and Zhidong sent envoys to Inazuma, but due to a thunderstorm, Zhidong's fleet was trapped outside Inazuma and could not enter.

It was not discovered until it had stayed on the sea for half a month.

As for how they found them across the thunderstorm, it is unknown.

Afterwards, the head of the Hiiragi family, who was in charge of the Kanjo Bugyo, came to the castle tower and met with the Raiden Shogun.

No one knows what the two talked about.

In the end, General Lei Dian decided to make an amnesty and let the Winter Fleet in.

Now, the Winter Fleet, led by scattered soldiers, is preparing to land on the outlying island and will be received by the Kanjo Bugyo.

On the shore, Soldier Scaramucci had a gloomy expression, gazing at the sea and gritting his teeth:

"Alechino, you actually tampered with my ship, delaying my voyage and blocking me from the thunderstorm for a full half month!"

"If I hadn't used my physical body to cross the ocean, I'm afraid the entire fleet would have had to return home!"

The experiences of Sniper Scaramucci during these days were also quite legendary.

In the winter, he was tortured half to death by the cold wind containing the power of the God of Ice.

In Inazuma, he was tortured half to death by a thunderstorm containing the power of the god of thunder.

He was now standing at the port off the island, looking at the Fatui fleet getting closer and closer, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.

"Alechino, isn't all this you did just for the twelfth seat, Jifan?"

"You want to stall for time and trap me outside Inazuma? You're really calculating!"

"What a pity! If it were any other executive officer, it might have taken quite some time."

As he spoke, a hint of slightly cruel excitement gradually emerged in Scaramucci's expression.

"Struggle, struggle. The more you care, the more I will destroy him."

"In winter, I dare not touch you, but in Inazuma... hehe..."

"The traveler tried to steal the heart of God, but was killed by the Thunder God with one blow... It seems like a good way to die."

"I'm really looking forward to it. What expression will you have when you see Ji Fan's body being chopped in half?"

“It must be very exciting!”
