I, Kiriko, the Cheater

Tongzi smiled and waved her hand.

"No, you are an assassination organization. How can there be any reason for a faction's funds to be provided by an assassination organization? Normally, shouldn't it be the Revolutionary Army that provides you with funds for your activities? And from another perspective, even if the Revolutionary Army's Finances are so tight that we need your support, you have killed so many wealthy businessmen and prostitutes, why don’t you steal their wealth by the way?”

"I'm not good at counting, but I also know that compared with the wealth of rich businessmen and grandparents, the entrustment money of ordinary people is less and more. Or do you people who raid at night don't even know this?"

Najie Xitan, who was usually sharp-tongued, was choked by Tongzi and was speechless.

"So, come join me. Najie Xitan, I am willing to believe your words, and I am also willing to believe that you are really for the good of this country. The rewards you collect from the common people in the imperial capital, in addition to the necessary activity funds , thinking about it, you must have handed over all of them to the revolutionary army..."

"But where did the money go, do you know? In my opinion, the revolutionary army in the south is not worthy of the name of revolution. The empire called them right. They are just a group of rebels who only care about their own interests." .”

After listening to Tongzi's words, Najie Xitan was silent, but Brand said angrily.

"Shut up! What do you think the empire is!"

Although Brand's head was covered with a face-covered helmet that completely blocked his face, Tongzi seemed to be able to feel his angry eyes piercing through the gap of the face-covered helmet, like a sharp Stabbed at himself like a sword.

"I used to be a soldier of the Southern Army of the Empire. My boss, General Liwa, was loyal to the empire. When he was attacking the foreign peoples in the south, General Liwa took the lead. The alien races in the south were defeated..."

"We gathered together for a celebration banquet and waited for the commendation order from the imperial capital, but do you know what we were waiting for in the end?"

Although Brand's words stopped here, Tongzi could roughly guess the follow-up development.

Brand pulled up the mask on the front of his helmet, showing a sad smile: "It is not a commendation order from the imperial capital, but an arrest warrant. General Liwa has fought for the country all his life and made great contributions. This time, he successfully defeated and invaded the southern region. There are foreign nationalities in the south of the territory, but the emperor wants to arrest General Liwa and return to the imperial capital to behead him in the name of treason."

"General Liwa saw it very clearly. He saw that it was not what the emperor meant, but the minister. Since then, General Liwa has never bribed the minister, and he has not even been to the minister's house to pay a visit to the pier, and it is because of this that General Liwa has to be arrested."

Brand pulled down the mask again.

"The various shortcomings of the revolutionary army you mentioned before, I admit that what you said is correct, but at least the revolutionary army did not frame Zhongliang. If General Liwa was a general of the revolutionary army instead of a general of the empire, how could he be killed? Arrested, escorted to the imperial capital for beheading? (Remark ①)”

"Do you know how shameful it is for a general to be beheaded in the name of treason instead of being killed in battle? Even if the revolutionary army is as rotten as you said, it is at least ten thousand times stronger than the rotten empire .”

"Although you have said a lot, but..." Tongzi spread her hands, "But I didn't ask you to help the empire, I want you to come to my side."

Najie Xitan stretched out her hand to stop the furious Brand.

At this time, she already knew that it was impossible to persuade the other party to submit to the revolutionary army.

Even she herself was at risk of being almost persuaded by the other party.

"There is no need to continue with the extra words. I just want to ask you one last thing, Miss Tong, are you really unwilling to come to the Revolutionary Army?"

"I just want to ask you one last thing, Najie Xitan, are you really unwilling to come to my side? I will not treat you badly, I will not need you to raise funds like the Revolutionary Army, and among you, Whoever has a personal grudge against the empire, I will help you out, and I will definitely not let Lin Chong take revenge like Song Jiang did."

……

……

……

Remark ①: In the original plot, after Liwa was arrested and escorted to the imperial capital, Brand didn’t know about it. He didn’t know that Liwa didn’t die but was rescued by Esthers. On the boat, Brand was so surprised when he saw Liwa.

Chapter 261 The Night Attack All Captured

==============================

Najie Xitan shook her head: "It's a pity, I thought we could be partners. Although your ideas are not consistent with ours, your ideas are also for the good of this country. The new country needs talents like you. It's a pity, it's too much. Pity……"

Najie Xitan sighed, turned around and was about to leave: "Next time we meet, we will be enemies."

Chitong, Brand, and Hill all stared at Tongzi warily, and slowly backed away.

Tongzi suddenly stopped them: "Wait."

Najie Xitan paused, feeling overjoyed.

Did the other party change his mind again?

It's not impossible to change your mind temporarily.

But when she looked at Tongzi full of expectations, Tongzi said something that disappointed her.

"Miss Najie Xitan, and everyone who attacked at night, since you don't want to join me, then I can't let you go." "I know your abilities. If I let you go, I don't worry about your revenge." , but if your targets are urban facilities or civilians, then even if I have three heads and six arms, I can't protect you everywhere."

Najie Xitan's expression changed: "What do you think of us? We won't attack civilians!"

"You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must have the heart to guard against others. I don't want to base the safety of urban facilities and civilians on the kindness and bottom line of others. These two are the most unreliable."

"You want to keep us? Just relying on you? It's too arrogant."

Najie Xitan looked at the twenty or thirty riders beside Tongzi, and couldn't help laughing.

Although she brought only half of the members of the night attack, it was not enough for twenty or thirty ordinary soldiers to deal with. Even if Chitong and Hill were not counted, Brand alone was enough.

Because when Brand was still in the Southern Army of the Empire, he had the title of beheading a hundred people, and he couldn't get close to just 30 or [-] people.

"Arrogant or not, you'll have to wait until you try it."

Tongzi pulled out the long black sword she carried behind her back. She jumped off the horse and landed on the ground, then waved her hand to signal the cavalry who wanted to follow up to protect her to retreat.

"Boss, you go first, leave this to me."

Chi Tong took a step forward, held a knife in both hands, and assumed a posture to attack.

"Don't go, Hill, you protect the boss, Chi Tong, we two go together, take her down here, she is the leader of the Great Rebel Army, as long as you take her down, the Great Rebel Army can surrender to the Revolutionary Army."

Brand is a soldier, not a warrior, so he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with two against one.
