Chapter 244 Death of the General
Chapter 244 The General's Death
General Danny raised his hands slightly and made a quiet gesture. The huge square immediately became silent, with more than 100,000 pairs of eyes looking at the angular face.
"You have also watched that holographic video. I have said that the Morton Dynasty has ended, Prince Morton has ended, and now, there are only five-star generals, General Danny Morton!"
"Five-star general, General Danny!"
"Five-star general, General Danny!"
"Five-star general, General Danny!"
People cheered loudly again. The fanatical voice made Liu Fei, who was standing behind General Danny, feel a sense of passion. He was cheered by more than 100,000 people. It was an unparalleled spectacular scene. Even if Liu Fei just stood behind Danny, he could feel that fanaticism.
"The Morton Empire has perished, and the Morton family is still there, because I am still alive. I have said that I will inherit the honor and dignity of the Morton family, and I will continue to safeguard the glory and dignity of the Morton family. No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, the Morton family will not lower their noble heads. Now, I am the only five-star general in the Morton Galaxy. I will lead the people of the Morton Galaxy to peace, justice, and fairness!"
"I have also said that justice and peace will not fall out of thin air and need to be baptized with blood. I think everyone should know that a few months ago, a disaster broke out in Morton Star. In the face of disaster, every member of the Morton family did not take a step back. Morton Star's Royal Star Fleet used their lives to forge the supreme honor of soldiers. They used their lives to safeguard the country and the people!"
Danny looked sad, and suddenly, the topic changed.
"But, just when our army was fighting bloody, some soldiers for their own self-interests have forgotten their responsibilities, for the honor and noble qualities that a soldier should have, and forgot that there are still our relatives and our compatriots on Morton Star... As a soldier, I am very sad. I feel a deep shame. They shame the Morton Galaxy, and the soldiers and people of Morton Galaxy. Today, they abandon our compatriots, and tomorrow, they will abandon us. Blood debts are paid back. Only blood and life can alert the world and make our descendants remember the duties of the soldiers!"
"Hang them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill those corrupt officials!"
"Hang them..."
The anger accumulated in people's hearts finally fermented at this moment, and the surging shouting formed a torrent, forming an unparalleled power.
"General Xu, are you guilty?" General Danny pressed his hands and the square fell into silence again.
"Knowing the crime." General Xu walked to the front. Although he was not wearing a lock, two soldiers followed closely behind him.
"Do you have something to say?"
"No."
"General..." General Danny was stunned. According to the original plan, General Xu should accuse Fran Keller. Only by shifting all the responsibility to Fran Keller can General Xu have a reason to be pardoned. In fact, the cause of the incident was indeed caused by Fran Keller.
"Dear General Danny, I am shamed by the officers and soldiers of Norman Star. Here, I beg the general to sentence me to hang me. I am willing to use the price of my life to wash away the shame brought to the army. Please fulfill it!"
"General, I know that's not your intention. I know you were planning to send troops..."
"Dear General Danny, this is my own choice. During this period, I woke up from nightmare every day. Every day I think of the soldiers who died on the battlefield, and the wreckage of the warship floating on the interstellar planet... Living has no meaning to me, please do it!"
General Xu strode to the edge of the gallows and put the rope into his neck.
"General, I believe you, under your leadership, the Morton Galaxy will move from new to glory, come on!"
"What are your requirements?" General Danny's voice was a little hoarse. He did not expect that things would develop to such a level. General Xu was extremely determined to die. Obviously, this was something he decided after careful consideration, and no one could change his ideas.
"Haha, a five-star general who shames the soldiers, what else do you have to ask for? General, order. For me, living is more painful than death. I should be the only five-star general in history to be hanged. I hope I am also the last one."
General Danny's face was fleeting, and then, instead of seriousness, with a light wave of his arm, a soldier activated the mechanism, and the flipped the board and made a "pop". General Xu's body fell down, and just moved a few times, and there was no movement.
After confirming that General Xu was dead, his body was immediately carried up. General Danny temporarily instructed people to remove the national flag from the square and cover General Xu's body.
General Danny took off his hat, and the square was extremely quiet. Many soldiers took off their helmets and placed them on their chests, and the atmosphere was sad.
After a silence of mourning, Danny bowed deeply to General Xu's body and walked to the front of the stage.
"General Xu is a soldier, and he is also a soldier worthy of respect. Although he did something wrong, he dared to admit his mistakes. He did not insult the sacred title of "soldier". He used his life to wash away the mistakes he made and proved that he was a real soldier. He will live in our hearts forever. History will remember him and he will be in history forever!"
"When we remember General Xu, we cannot forget the culprits of some things. We cannot let General Xu become a scapegoat, because we all know that the real culprit is him!"
General Danny's finger pointed to the audience, and everyone followed General Danny's fingers to a person with extremely obesity: Fran Keller.
"Your Highness, your Highness, your Highness..."
Fran Keller was almost dragged up by two soldiers, and a trace of wet along the way was so scared that he wet his pants.
"Dear Mr. Fran, the Morton Empire no longer exists, and I am not a prince anymore. According to the news just now, I found dragon robe and jade seals in your house. Haha, Danny really doesn't know that Mr. Fran likes to collect those antiques..."
"Ah... no... yes, it's collection, collection, general, collection of antiques!" Fran Keller squatted with a devastating face and incoherent defense.
"Is that true?" Danny smiled lightly, waved his hand, and the pictures in the square appeared in the dragon robe and jade seal. On the holographic image of the jade seal, people can clearly see that the four ancient characters "Keller Empire" are carved.
"General, please spare me... I am your father-in-law..."
"Hang him!"
"Hang him!"
No one heard Fran Keller's voice. The frantically shouts of the people drowned his faint voice like a tide. Anger gathered over the square, and the air seemed to be burning.
"Stop, General Xu died today. General Xu is a real soldier. He is a soldier who dares to take responsibility. He is not worthy of dying in the same place as the general. Soon, Norman Star will set up a temporary military court. The court will make an appropriate judgment, and will not condone one or be wronged one!"
Amid the crazi cheers of people, the grand gathering ended, and all the military and political leaders who attended the gathering were imprisoned and awaited the trial of the military court.
This gathering marked that Norman Star had completely fallen under General Danny's control and entered military control, and all functional departments suspended their work and waited for further arrangements.
Danny was not idle. First of all, he wanted to find the surviving officers and soldiers of the Emperor Star Fleet. Those soldiers loyal to the Morton family will gradually replace some people. This is an inevitable process of power alternation. Of course, there is a more important thing: to quell the rebellion!
