Chapter 465 – Dedicated Secretaries

Hardy and Taike were confused in the beginning, but when they understood what Lin Xiao meant, they wanted to kill him!

Damn brat, since you couldn’t take care of Barrett yourself, you had to drag us down with you

Wage deductions for military expenditure and then getting Hardy to bring a bunch of people to their deaths… this had nothing to do with Hardy and Taike, if Barrett wanted to fight, then let him, but with Lin Xiao’s suggestion, he forcibly dragged the peace faction down as well.

“No, no, my abilities cant compare to Grand Marshall Barrett’s, if I go help, I’ll just be in the way, Lin Xiao… uh no, princess, why don’t you consider it a bit more”

Hardy quickly tried to push it off and Taike also started crying and complaining.

“Princess, we also have no more money! We already shrank our wages by more than half because of the plague and official expenses have been greatly decreasing, any more and we won’t even be able to eat!”

“Yes princess, we really have no more money!”

“We have nothing left!”

When they heard that their wallets were being touched, the people from the peace faction got anxious.

Lin Xiao already anticipated their anger and secretly smiled.

“Everyone… calm down, I don’t want anyone to starve, but I already agreed to Barrett’s plan, he’s the one asking you guys for money, not me!”

Lin Xiao shook his hands and made Barrett take the blame.

“I know how difficult it is for everyone, so please negotiate with Grand Marshall Barrett.”

He helplessly shrugged and looked to Barrett.

Barrett was clueless and was assaulted by a barrage of verbal abuse before he could even speak.

“Barrett, to tell you the truth… I don’t have any money, just my life! Take a look to see how much my head is worth and take it for military expenditure!”

“Barrett, you also have a family… it might be enjoyable for you to go to war, but your family has to eat dirt!”

“Anyways we have no money, if you force us, then we quit!”

“Right! Barrett, don’t forget we hold the logistic lines, if you’re deadset on starving us, then don’t even think about eating either!”

When Barrett heard them rebuking him like hooligans, he didn’t even know what to say.

He has always seen these officials as cowardly and incompetent like herbivores and didn’t think of them as anything.

But now to his surprise, these herbivores can jump and bite

Lin Xiao, nice touch! You knew that relying on Claire alone wasn’t enough, so you got additional help and purposely riled up the peace faction and transferred their anger to deal with me!

Barrett looked at Lin Xiao and saw him smiling, and when their eyes met he could only sigh and shake his head.

There’s no money or food, and if you force them too far, they’ll take you with them! Even if his plan was approved, it would be difficult to implement.

“Everyone… please stop, we’re all doing this for the country, it’s not like I want to see everything fall into chaos.”

Barrett shook his hands and exchanged a helpless look with his subordinates and they all sighed and finally accepted their defeat.

It couldn’t be helped, no matter how good he was, he couldn’t survive an attack from both sides.

He actually already did well and didn’t do anything wrong, there was only one reason he failed… he was facing Lin Xiao.

Just that.

“Okay then, since the princess and everyone else says there’s no more money, then I don’t want it anymore… but we can’t really counterattack without money, and we can’t just let the soldiers starve, so as for this plan… sigh, forget about it.”

As he said that, he waved his hands and the attendants came and reluctantly took the plan and the large box of information out of the meeting room.

The box leaving the meeting room meant that Barrett was defeated by Lin Xiao!

Like that, the peace and war factions were both defeated, and now was the time for Lin Xiao to reap the results of his victory!

Clap, clap.

Lin Xiao also clapped his hands like Barrett and then the two beauties that were listening walked over like Lin Xiao’s dedicated secretaries, each holding a plan, one for Barrett and one for Hardy.

Everyone stopped when they saw them walking over, but both sides felt different things.

“General Hardy, this is for you~”

ShenDai Ying was responisble for the peace faction.

She gracefully walked over and gently placed the plan on the table in front of Hardy.

On the other side, the war faction wasn’t feeling so good.

“Here!”

Elena had no respect for Barrett and simply threw the plan in front of Barrett without even looking at him and then left.

Was this arrogant girl actually a maid

Lin Xiao was so normal, but his secretaries were treasures! They really didn’t know where he found them…

“Cough, everyone, this is a plan I prepared.”

Lin Xiao coughed to bring everyone’s attention back to himself and then seriously ordered Barrett.

“Grand Marshall Barrett, we can counterattack! But we need time to prepare.

So for now you can follow my daily schedule for training and reconnaissance and prepare to counterattack at any time!”

“We can counterattack, we just need time, is it…”

Barrett understood just by flipping over a few pages and silently accepted his plans.

Now that its come to this, what else could he do but agree

After he nodded, Lin Xiao turned to the other side.

“General Hardy, Minister Taike, you can still try going for negotiations with the rebels, but at the same time, you have to think of ways to increase military funding! We can only fight, we can’t have peace! Peace talks are just a pretense to buy time!”

“To buy time Sigh, okay, we’ll listen to you…”

After looking through Lin Xiao’s plans, Taike also quickly understood.

It was obvious that time was their biggest enemy and Lin Xiao was buying time for both sides.

They couldn’t advance prematurely but also couldn’t retreat, so his plan was the most rational one.

After seeing both sides concede, Claire finally smiled!

Lin Xiao actually did it! He really helped everyone come to an agreement!

My god! Claire couldn’t believe it was real and still thought she was dreaming, so she secretly reached a hand under the table and held onto the helm of his shirt like she was afraid he would suddenly disappear.

Then she felt it wasn’t reliable and directly felt up his leg and pinched it!

“Stop messing around! If you want to thank me, wait until after the meeting!”

Lin Xiao was afraid Claire’s movements would be noticed so he could only endure the pain and whisper to her.

“Hehe, okay…”

Claire finally calmed down after getting a response and Lin Xiao cleared his throat to announce the results.

This noisy meeting was finally over with their victory!

“Since everyone is in agreement, then this meeting…”

“Wait!”

Just as Lin Xiao was about to announce the end, and everyone was already in agreement, Hardy who was silent suddenly interrupted him!

“General Hardy Do you still have something to say”

At this point, it was impossible for Hardy to overturn the decision, so Lin Xiao had no idea what he wanted.

“Princess, Lin Xiao… there’s something you must know!”

“What”

“Regarding Barrett.”

“The Grand Marshall … What about it”

“I suggest removing Barrett as the Grand Marshall!”

“… What did you say”
