It wasn't just Cayrard who was stunned. Li Huailin's men didn't understand what was going on either. Wasn't this a trial? Why couldn't they understand it at all? They asked a few questions that they didn't understand, and then he announced that the other party was guilty of treason. What the hell was going on? Although they always knew that their lord was unreliable at times, this was a bit too much.
"No, Sir Duke, I really didn't participate in it!" On the other side, Kayrard immediately cried out that he was being wronged. Yes, he was being wronged. He really hadn't participated in this. What did this have to do with him? Could it be that he had answered some of the questions wrongly? But he felt that these questions had nothing to do with the trial of treason.
"Take him away." Li Huailin waved his hand. Of course, the guards here were now under Li Huailin's command. Although they didn't know what was going on, they still carried out the order. Both of them grabbed Cayrard and dragged him out.
"Sir Marshal, what … what is going on?" Drummo couldn't help but ask.
"I'm helping you choose people," Li Huailin said. "Look carefully. If you want someone, just raise your hand."
"Isn't this a trial?" Drummo asked.
"It's too troublesome. It's a waste of time to start the trial and then find helpers for you. Come at me together," Li Huailin said and shouted at the door, "Next."
The group of people were sweating profusely. They could come at me together too?
In any case, the second person also came in. This time, he looked like a strong man in his thirties. He looked very calm and had a bloody aura that only people who had been on the battlefield would have. At first glance, it was obvious that he was a good general. As soon as he came in, a few people noticed him.
"Sir Marshal." The strong man called Li Huailin's military rank in a more formal manner. He didn't scream or say that he was wronged. It seemed like he wasn't worried about his situation. Maybe it was because he didn't participate in this matter.
"Alright, introduce yourself. What's your name and unit?" Li Huailin asked again.
"Ge Ma, the vice-captain of the Second Light Cavalry Squad," the brawny man said simply.
"Mm …" Li Huailin nodded. "Do you … have any dreams?"
"Eh?" Sigma didn't expect Li Huailin to ask this question. He was slightly surprised, but he quickly replied, "Become a General!"
Although his dream was the same as Kairad's, it sounded much more credible and confident. At the very least, Dramo and the others didn't have the slightest intention of laughing.
"Hmm … Tell me about your battle record," Li Huailin asked again.
"Battle achievements?"

"Oh …" It seemed like Sigma was indeed a veteran on the battlefield. He could talk about his battle record for a long time. Li Huailin waited for him to finish, then nodded and asked, "Who wants it?"
"Me!" "Me!" "Me!" Three people raised their hands at the same time. They were Reggie, Dramo, and Legg. The others didn't seem to understand the situation yet.
"Okay." Li Huailin nodded, then turned to Sigma again. "Sigma, right? Now there are three mentors … No, three generals who have acknowledged you. You need to choose one of these three to join their team. You have half a minute to think about it. "
"Huh?" Sigma didn't quite understand. Wasn't this a trial? Why did they start to choose generals? Although he didn't know what was going on, he still understood that he had to obey his superior's orders. Since Li Huailin was now the acting marshal, Sigma naturally obeyed his orders. He looked at the three people who raised their hands, then pointed at Dramo and said, "I choose him. He's better."
"Understood. From now on, you will follow Dramo. You will still be in the Second Light Cavalry." Li Huailin waved his hand. "Alright, go back and rest. There's nothing for you to do here."
"Huh?" Sigma really wanted to ask what was going on. He passed the trial just like that? It seemed like he didn't even ask a single question. Although he didn't know what was going on, he didn't participate in it anyway. Since he passed, it was fine. After pondering for a moment, Genma left without saying anything.
"Huh?" The few of them looked at Li Huailin in confusion. What the hell was this trial about?
"What's going on? Why isn't it intense at all?" Li Huailin suddenly said, "Isn't this guy quite useful? All three of you have chosen him, and he still has half a minute to choose. Why don't you say something to attract him to your team? This is the time to snatch talents. If you have any questions, you can ask him. That's fine. Make the atmosphere a little more lively."
"It's not the marshal," Legg said. "Isn't this a trial? Why don't you ask them about their previous treason? "
"I …" Li Huailin held his forehead. "Why don't you understand? Whether they are guilty or not has nothing to do with me. I'm in charge of this matter. If I say they are guilty, then they are. If I say they are not, then they are not. The main point now is that the First Legion will be my army in the future, so I need to reshuffle the cards. Do you understand? Those who you think can help you control the army are useful. Keep them, and get rid of the rest. This is also related to your assessment. Choose your people well. Otherwise, don't ask me why I'll send you back later. "
"This …" The few of them were obviously a little worried. If there were really people guilty of treason, wouldn't it be troublesome to recruit them? Although they all nodded, they still became cautious.
"I saw that there are about a hundred people at the door. Each of you can choose eight, and I'll help Bruno choose. That makes 56 people. Kill the rest," Li Huailin said. "Okay, I don't want to waste too much time. Hurry up, next!"
They didn't know how Li Huailin decided on eight people per person, but this way, the few of them began to be a little more cautious. Just like that, the trial suddenly became a selection meeting, and it actually went on smoothly. The sergeants of the First Legion also entered the camp one by one, and then were asked three questions. Of course, they began to vote. At first, Dramo and the others were not in the mood, but after everyone got used to it, they began to fight for people. After all, this was related to their assessment, so everyone began to compete for talents.
Soon, the afternoon passed just like that, and the people of the 1st Legion were almost done. Li Huailin's subordinates had also almost finished their quota, especially Dramo, who was the first to finish his quota. There were a few people behind him who were obviously very good, but Li Huailin had no quota left, so he could only watch them pass by. On Li Huailin's side, he also helped Bruno choose a few people, who were basically the fierce type. Anyway, the heavy cavalry only needed to keep charging forward. This was the simplest.
When it was almost evening, Gina had also finished choosing the last person. As Gina was the only female knight, she was more picky about her subordinates, especially those who weren't good-looking as it would affect her mood. It took her a lot of effort to choose a few people, but because Li Huailin's side seemed to be a little impatient, Gina also sped up so that Li Huailin wouldn't have to wait any longer.
"Okay, okay, it's finally done." Li Huailin was really impatient. Even if he could only choose one person for two to three minutes, it would take a few hours for over 100 people to finish. Indeed, he had been busy from noon to evening. Of course, most of the questions were raised by his subordinates. Li Huailin was just watching, but he was also very tired after sitting for a few hours. "You can go and cultivate your relationship with your subordinates now …"
"Lord Marshal, there are still over 10 people outside." A member of the imperial guard looked outside and said, "What should we do?"
"No need to investigate, they are all traitors. Just arrest and behead them," Li Huailin said with a wave of his hand.
"…" Everyone was a little speechless. This was too tragic. Just because he was a little behind in the queue, he was framed as a traitor. He died a miserable death, because if he died with the identity of a traitor, his whole family would be implicated.
"Marshal, General Moganli and Captain Parolag are still outside. They are respected heroes in the camp, and they are definitely not traitors. If we just kill them like that …" a soldier said worriedly. "Marshal, there are still General Moganli and Captain Parolag outside.
"It's alright. If I don't behead a few guys like them, how can I control the army?" Li Huailin said. "Just behead them. I'm doing a great deed for the No. 1 Corps. I believe everyone will respect me very much in the future."
"…" A few of Li Huailin's people were a little speechless. Legg, of course, felt that something was wrong. He immediately went forward to stop Li Huailin's messy behavior. However, just as he was about to speak, Li Huailin's long-distance communication device suddenly rang.
"Alright, those who didn't pass the verification are all traitors. Behead them all. We can start the execution. You guys go watch over them. I have something to do here." Li Huailin directly waved his hand. He then looked at the long-distance communication device and realized that it was the Jade Emperor Summoning's long-distance communication device.
"Summoning? What's wrong?" Li Huailin asked.
"Uh … there's a slightly troublesome situation," the Jade Emperor Summoning said. The Summoning Jade Emperor said, "The NPC merchant who gave us the quest … he's gone."
"Huh?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. "What do you mean?"
"It's simple. He's gone," the Jade Emperor Summoning said.
