Chapter 454 "The Story of the 250 General (part 2) – The more extravagant the better"
Guptad and the others went back to raise money but to no avail. The soldiers were so angry that they felt like their lungs were about to explode. But after all, this was the General's wife so they didn't dare to do anything rash. They could only swallow their anger and go back.
But the most speechless thing was: After Guptad and the others were driven away, the woman immediately wrote a letter to Longbottom asking for a divorce!
Longbottom calmly signed the divorce papers in prison. He even went through the government and signed a document giving away all his assets to the woman for free.
Although Guptad and the others were unhappy, Longbottom was very calm.
Longbottom's first wife left him just like that … … Or rather, there was a tinge of "betrayal" in it. Because less than a month after the divorce, the woman was said to have gotten married. She took the assets given to her by Longbottom and married the youngest son of a local noble.
But the tragedy of Longbottom's marriage didn't end there … …
Not long after, something happened to his wife in the grasslands.
Since they believed that Longbottom had fallen from power. The family of Longbottom's concubine, the big tribe that saw Longbottom as an ally, felt that since the 250 General had lost his value, there was no need to give him face anymore.
Then, during a communication between the tribes, another tribe's chief took a fancy to Longbottom's concubine … … It must be said that his grassland wife was actually a beautiful grassland woman.
Moreover, the grassland people were called barbarians by the Roland Empire for a certain reason. The biggest reason was that they didn't have the concept of chastity!
In the Luo Lan Empire, there are also things like divorces or secret lovers and so on. But in the grasslands, where resources were scarce, women were always seen as resources!
Since Longbottom was finished, his wife would be redistributed like a resource!
Moreover, after Longbottom was removed from power, the army he led was taken over by the people sent by the Empire. His wife also returned to her family to live temporarily.
On one side, there was a large tribe's chief who was willing to formally marry his daughter as the sixth concubine in the grasslands. On the other side was General 250, who had already fallen from power and was still locked up in prison. At this time, Longbottom's father-in-law naturally made the right choice!!
What was even more shocking was that Longbottom's wife, a woman from the Roland Empire, didn't even fart when her husband was in danger. She took all of Longbottom's assets and remarried to someone else.
And this grassland wife, who was regarded as a "barbaric" by the Roland people, had shown a shocking courage at this moment.
It was said that this respectable woman vehemently opposed the marriage, but to no avail. The next day, before the wedding procession from the other tribe arrived, she committed suicide!
This grassland woman swallowed a small piece of gold. This was the gold pendant on a necklace that Longbottom had made for her when he married her! This necklace was made by a craftsman from the Roland Empire and had always been regarded as a treasure by the grassland woman.
When she was powerless to resist, she chose to commit suicide by swallowing the token of marriage that her husband had given her!
It wasn't until the wedding procession arrived that the maid ran into the tent and found her body.

Not many people in the Tulip Family knew about Longbottom's secret past. Only a few people in the core circle knew about it. Moreover, most of the things were said by that little idiot, Guetta.
Back when Du Wei first met this general in the prison of the Empire's Ministry of Supervision, he really felt that this guy was a bastard!
He actually summoned prostitutes to his cell to mess around.
But later on, Du Wei learned something from Guetta:
"In fact, the general never messed around! Everyone knows that the general would often take us out to crack down on counterfeits. He would also take us back to the Empire to occupy a brothel for our brothers to vent their frustrations. As soldiers, we are all boorish people. For the sake of snatching girls, they often fought with the other Northwest Army units several times! But you guys don't know, our general never messed around at that time! Every time we arrived at the brothel, everyone would bring the girl into the room while the general would sit alone in the hall and drink until dawn. Later on, we would all make fun of him. But guess what the general said? "
At this point, Guetta's face looked very dignified and his tone carried a trace of sadness.
"The general glared at us, then kicked me and scolded: You little bastard, what do you know! I am a man with a wife! "
Every time Guetta talked about Longbottom's past after getting drunk, Du Wei couldn't help but feel a little sad when he heard this last sentence.
Such a rough looking martial artist, such a rough looking general who could kill with a glare. Who would have thought that he would have such tenderness in his heart!
•
"I have a wife." When Longbottom said this to Du Wei and Philip under such circumstances, Du Wei already sighed in his heart. He already couldn't bear to force Longbottom to do this.
But Philip's eyes suddenly lit up! Not only did he not give up, he even revealed a trace of determination!
He quickly looked at Du Wei and exchanged a look with Du Wei.
Du Wei was a smart man, he saw through Philip's intentions.
Isn't this a good opportunity?
Let this old bachelor who lost his wife for many years have a second chance ….. Marrying a beautiful princess home can be considered as compensation for this general's life!
He worked for the empire's borders and was framed by the empire's bureaucrats ….. As a result, his career was ruined and even his marriage became a tragedy.
This way, getting a princess in the end can be considered a good ending, right?
Duwei and Philip quickly reached a consensus with their eyes.
Then, Longbottom looked at Philip with a blank face as he walked to the table. He quickly took out something from the drawer and threw it at Longbottom from afar.
"General Longbottom, receive the order!"
General 250 caught it and looked down. It was a golden tulip badge! This symbolized the highest order of the Tulip family.
"General Longbottom, I now order you to complete a special mission as the family's administrative manager!" Philip deliberately put on a straight face and said in a deep voice: "This order is a top secret of the family, so it is not a document, but a password! The content of the mission is as follows: One day later, you are in charge of leading 300 cavalrymen to escort Princess Louise and the future Princess Daisy back to the capital! Along the way, you must closely protect the two ladies from any harm ….. Especially Princess Louise! And ….. You must follow my instructions! No mistakes! Otherwise, you will be punished according to military law! "
What Philip said next stunned the 250-year-old general! He didn't think that Philip, who always looked serious, would actually come up with such a ridiculous plan!?
"I will secretly send people to disguise as bandits and intercept your group on the road! And you ….. General Longbottom, I want you to put on a good show for me! Along the way, you must do your best to show off your masculinity and charm in front of the princess! Do everything you can to win Her Highness' heart in the shortest time possible! Finally ….. You wait a moment, regarding this plan, we need to carefully plan it out ….. And in the end, we need to quietly bring the princess back to Loulan City! "
Longbottom's nose was almost crooked from anger.
"Show off your masculinity and beauty in front of the princess, do everything you can to win Her Highness' heart in the shortest time possible." From ancient times until now, was there such a ridiculous "military order"?
However, when Philip said such absurd words, he was able to make it sound like he was speaking with a strong sense of righteousness. Finally, Philip looked at Du Wei and said solemnly: "Duke, due to the family's regulations, the administrative officials are not allowed to deploy military personnel. So in this special mission, I need your authorization to deploy General Longbottom."
Du Wei smiled and nodded: "I give you full authority."
Longbottom was about to groan.
"Uh ….. Also, regarding who to send to disguise as bandits to intercept us on the road ….. This person needs to be carefully considered." Philip rubbed his chin and then analyzed the conditions one by one: "First, this person must be unfamiliar and rarely show himself. Most people won't recognize him! Second, this person must be a core member of our team and must be absolutely trustworthy! Because this kind of thing cannot be leaked! The most important thing is the third condition! This person must be highly skilled! "
"Why?" Du Wei couldn't help but ask.
Philip sighed. "In my mind, the 'hero rescuing the damsel in distress' part of the plan is naturally not lacking. I plan to have the person who will pretend to be the leader of the bandits fight with General Longbottom! Sir, you know what kind of person the princess is? She is a child of the royal family. When she was in the capital, she had seen many strong people. There are also many strong warriors in the palace. So, since we are going to put on a show, of course we have to do it beautifully! Not only do we have to fake the fight, we have to do it beautifully! It would be best if both of them use their high level dou qi and have a fierce fight. The more beautiful the scene, the better! Otherwise, if the fight is settled in a few moves, I'm afraid it won't be able to show off our General Longbottom's bravery! "
Du Wei was stunned.
The person must be unfamiliar, someone he can trust, and someone with strong martial arts skills?
These three conditions weren't high, but they weren't low either. Although he had many strong people under his command, there weren't many who fit all of these conditions.
Hmm …..
Du Wei thought for a long time and suddenly his eyes lit up!
"I have thought of an excellent candidate!" Du Wei rubbed his chin. At this moment, he and Philip's actions were exactly the same. They both had a sinister look: "What do you think of our Mr Paladin? Hussain! He has left the capital for many years and there aren't many people who remember his appearance. Moreover, he is now blind in one eye, his face is full of scars, and he even dyed his hair. With this appearance, there aren't many people who can recognize him! And according to what I know, the princess shouldn't have seen Hussain before! Moreover, Hussain is a close comrade that we can all trust. Moreover … … when it comes to strength, there is no problem with his strength! "
Philip immediately slapped his thigh and laughed: "Good! Not bad! I happen to think so too. Aside from Hussein, the one with the strongest martial arts in the family was Mr. Rodriguez. It's a pity that Rodriguez appeared in public during the coup. I'm afraid the princess was also in the square that day and must have seen Rodriguez. Then, Hussain is a good candidate! "
Du Wei laughed: "Moreover, Hussain's strength is valiant. The two of them will fake a fight and use high level dou qi. If their strength isn't enough and they accidentally hurt their own people, I'm afraid it won't be good. Hussain is a saint level powerhouse. Doing this kind of thing with his strength should be more than enough. "
After the two finished speaking, they looked at Longbottom at the same time. What surprised them was that before the two of them could speak, Longbottom actually took the initiative and said loudly: "Good! I agree! Hussain is indeed a good candidate! "
En?
Longbottom suddenly became so easy to talk to, which made Du Wei and Philip a little surprised.
Longbottom spread out his hands and laughed bitterly: "If I stick my head out, I'll still be stabbed. I think I'd better be a bachelor and accept my fate."
Du Wei immediately nodded and slapped the table: "Good! I'll go talk to Hussain personally! "
But what the two of them didn't notice was that when Longbottom turned around to leave, after turning his back, the fatty's face revealed a trace of undetectable strange smile … …
