"You want me to pretend to be your general?"
Before the other party could put forward the conditions, Li Yi spoke out first.
Although he had never met General Chen Han, he could roughly guess it from the conversation and the words of the previous cavalry captain.
Otherwise, how could he, an outsider with no identity, be qualified to enter this important military area on the border?
And he could also hear the other party's intentions from the chief soldier's words.
It’s too obvious!
"Yes, since you have guessed it, you must have made your decision, right?"
"Yes, I agree, the condition is to find someone for me."
Speaking of this, Li Yi seemed to hesitate for a moment and then continued.
"Of course, that person might not be here."
What he didn't expect was that Guo Yunkai couldn't help but laugh when he heard what Li Yi said.
"Are you worried that you can't find him? Don't worry about that. As long as he is really there, he will be found!"
As he spoke, Guo Yunkai clapped his hands as if to enhance Li Yi's confidence.
After two bangs, there was a sound like moving tables and chairs from behind the door.
Then a figure appeared behind the door curtain.
However, after the "person" came in, Li Yi was stunned.
"This is......\"
"This is my magic. You can think of it as my ability."
Guo Yunkai smiled and observed the young man in front of him who looked very similar to his general.
To be honest, facing such a youthful version of General Chen Han, not to mention others, even him, the chief military officer who had spent time with the general, couldn't help but feel conflicted.
Of course, it doesn't mean that people who look alike will definitely feel this kind of oppression.
You must know that before this, he had found several people who looked similar to the general and wanted to act as substitutes.
Those people do look very similar. Although they may not be as good as the young man in front of me, there is absolutely no problem in using them to fool outsiders.
But this is not enough for Guo Yunkai!
If he only needed to be similar in appearance, then he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble, trying so hard to cover up the truth while thinking of various names to find similar people.
What he had to deal with was not what he had said before.
Just to cope with the coming war!
In other words, if there is no suitable candidate, then this battle may not have to be fought at all!
"Are you sure this is the only condition? Let me remind you in advance that what I want you to do is not that simple."
Li Yi shrugged indifferently.
"It doesn't matter, just treat me as a tourist."
His mentality was indeed very relaxed, mainly because he did not detect any hostility from the other party.
Although Li Yi failed in sensing hostility before.
But that is a god, or a god-level civilization!
He had no intention of becoming an enemy of this being at the top of the food chain in the universe.
Through this incident, he finally understood Milaud's character.
It is really like what Malok said, all he wants to save is peace and saving his own nation.
From this point alone, he still admired Milaud.
"Okay, come with me."
Seeing that the other party looked calm and composed, he seemed completely unaware of what he was about to face once he agreed.
Guo Yunkai hesitated a little.
However, the matter was urgent now, and he could not tolerate any further hesitation, so he immediately told the matter in detail.
"In a few days, the imperial patrol envoy will come to inspect the border. All you have to do is wait for the envoy to come and cooperate with you to act out a play. As long as the performance is good and the other party believes it, I will satisfy all your requirements, not only what you ask for." I told you to find someone."
Although Guo Yunkai did consider that the other party's conditions were too high at the beginning and bargained.
This is also the reason why he asked the other party in advance what conditions he had.
If it was related to money and the amount was too large, he really had no intention of agreeing.
Even though the other party was forcefully brought back by someone he sent.
You must know that the current environment of the Border Guard is not very good.
In fact, strictly speaking, the Border Guards have never been in a good situation.
If General Chen Han had not increased revenue and reduced expenditure, and developed several plans to make money, the situation of the border guard would not be said to be military expansion and preparation for war.
Even the cost of simply maintaining daily training and armaments is very tight.
Although borders are very important to the empire.
Especially after the arrival of the monster army, this importance has shown a straight-up trend.
"Since the arrival of Daman, the general has never had a day off. Since he took office...\"
Guo Yunkai was talking to himself. Just as he was about to sigh, he was interrupted by Li Yi.
"Wait a minute...what is Daman?"
Guo Yunkai glanced at the other person in surprise, seeming to infer from the other person's clothes that this was probably his first time at the border.
I don’t know what Daman is, but there are indeed many people in the empire’s vast territory.
After thinking about this, Guo Yunkai felt relieved.
he explained.
"Daman is a monster. Since its arrival thirty years ago, this kind of monster has become a serious problem on the border of the empire. And unlike the wild monsters on this planet, they swarm in groups every time they appear. , it is difficult to cause great harm...\"
Li Yi listened carefully. He had a feeling that this monster called Daman might have something else to say, because if it was just in groups, then many creatures would appear in groups, but if it reaches If it poses a threat to a huge empire, it is really not an easy thing to do.
Sure enough, Guo Yunkai said next.
"At first, the empire did not regard this as a threat, at most it only regarded it as a natural disaster. After all, similar natural disasters are not uncommon on this planet.
"Often this type of disaster does not cause much damage, but there are always exceptions."
"I don't know since when, the number of Daman gradually began to decrease, but strangely, when facing these monsters, the pressure on humans has become greater."
Speaking of this, Guo Yunkai glanced at Li Yi specifically and found that he looked thoughtful, and couldn't help but understand.
Nodding, Guo Yunkai continued.
"After intercepting Daman's threat, a whole team of imperial cavalry disappeared. It was only found out after investigation."
"It turns out that the whole team, including the men and horses, were all eaten by these Damans!"
"These Daman are actually cannibals!"
Having said this, Guo Yunkai looked at Li Yi again. He wanted to see surprise or panic in the other person's eyes.
Unfortunately, he didn't see it.
This made Guo Yunkai's heart move.
I didn't expect him to be quite determined. Generally, if someone who has never known Daman hears this, he will show some expression no matter what he says.
It seems that his psychological quality is quite good!
In fact, having said that, Guo Yunkai's "test" on Li Yi has achieved its purpose.
He was very satisfied with the result.
That is, the young man in front of him who looks very similar to Boss Chen does meet his requirements.
Everyone knows that General Chen was originally a brave and invincible general, the kind of strong man who would not be moved even if he faced imminent danger.
Wanting to be a substitute for such a person is definitely not an easy thing to do.
According to Guo Yunkai's investigation, the envoy who is about to come is not an easy person to get rid of.
This is the real reason why he took such pains to select a replacement.
If there is no way to hide this envoy, then the border guard's life may not be easy in the future.
But because of Li Yi's appearance, there was still enough time.
At least this young man who didn't even know Daman should be familiar with everything about the general.
There is one more thing that needs to be done immediately.
Guo Yunkai quickly called someone.
"Go, call all the cavalry captains, and take back all the portraits of generals on the street. Remember, all of them! No matter what the content is."
"As long as one is missing, you don't have to come back. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
