Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1611 - 1615: The Joke Went Too Far

"Boss, this...won't work!"

Just as Qin Tian finished speaking, Xiao Zhuang stared at him in shock, saying, "Boss, you're even signing a military order? Isn't that courting death... Right now, our City Guard Army only has eleven thousand people. Even if you become the Governor of the City Guard Army, you only have these people... You're still signing a military order to prevent a single soldier of the Dragon Clan from entering East Capital City? That's impossible!"

Xiao Zhuang showed a bitter melon face: "This time, it's only a division of the Dragon Clan attacking us. The Dragon Clan's main force is at least two hundred thousand, just in numbers alone, they are twice our number. How can we resist the Dragon Clan? Even Nangong Minghua's forty thousand soldiers wouldn't dare to thump their chest and guarantee they can defend East Capital City... We... you're this..."

Seeing Xiao Zhuang's perplexed look, Qin Tian chuckled, not bothering to explain, and said, "Third bro, why are you so nervous? I'm just joking with Nangong Minghua. Do you think Nangong Minghua can secure this position for me? Clearly not, right? Nangong Minghua is associated with the Crown Prince; they don't know my stance, so it's impossible for them to give me the Governor position of the City Guard Army... Relax and just write what I said."

"Really?"

Xiao Zhuang was skeptical.

Qin Tian nodded: "What do you say? Do you think the positions of Governor of the City Guard Army and the military order are realistic?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Alright, then I'll go and write it now, help you tease this old bastard Nangong Minghua."

Xiao Zhuang chuckled.

...

"Haha, this kid actually replied to me. Wow, he's got quite the appetite, dares to negotiate terms with me. Everyone, take a look..."

In the City Lord Mansion of East Capital City, Nangong Minghua was amused after reading Qin Tian's letter.

In the meeting hall, various camp commanders and Nangong Minghua's trusted generals were all taken aback by his unusual smile.

Nangong Minghua chuckled: "Everyone, guess what conditions Qin Tian set for me?"

"More troops?"

"Exactly, he must be asking the City Lord for reinforcements, isn't he?"

"He only has eleven thousand men, if the Dragon Clan sends two hundred thousand, it probably won't be enough to fill Long Tianwu's teeth."

Listening to their speculations, Nangong Minghua waved his hand: "No, no, this kid, at this time, actually asked me for a position. He's just been promoted to the first Deputy Governor of the City Guard Army, yet now he's asking me for the Governor position, trying to stand on equal footing with me!"

Everyone was stunned.

"Sir, the position of the Governor of the City Guard Army requires the full authority decree in Imperial City; Qin Tian's too cheeky, asking you for this position?"

"This guy, rumored to be smart, what's going on? After Xiao Zhan's death, the City Guard Army fell like dominos, and Lei Shi was executed by Qin Tian in revenge for Xiao Zhan. Qin Tian now fully controls the City Guard Army's force, right? Whether or not he has the position of Governor, what's the difference?"

"There is a difference, if the Imperial City's promotion decree comes down, Qin Tian will secure his position as the Governor of the City Guard Army."

"Though that's the case, with the imminent war in East State, I'm curious, what is Qin Tian relying on to guarantee he can repel the Dragon Clan outside East Capital City?"

"Exactly, haha, this guy is too arrogant, even signing a military order? He didn't even ask you, City Lord, to lead the troops to help him. Judging by this, he intends to rely on his eleven thousand men to fend off Long Tianwu's army of twenty thousand. Haha... He's dreaming!"

The room erupted in laughter.

Nangong Minghua laughed too: "Therefore, I think this Qin Tian probably hasn't understood the current situation. He, since he's talking about signing a military order, stretching his neck like this to seek death, should I not kindly accept it? What say you?"

"Sir, can you secure the position for him?"

"Right, currently, Ice Emperor is already quite displeased with us. If you request the position now, Ice Emperor might not agree."

Two of the generals said.

Nangong Minghua said: "He will agree. I'll find a way to make Imperial City consent."

Nangong Minghua glanced again at the letter's contents, coldly sneering internally: "Qin Tian, this is your own doing; you can't blame me for being ruthless!"

In reality, after the East State war began, Ice Emperor was indeed very dissatisfied with the constant defeats of the East State Army.

Previously, Imperial City's anger was borne together by Xiao Zhan and him, and he could push responsibility onto Xiao Zhan.

But now, Xiao Zhan is dead.

Nangong Minghua was troubled, unable to find a scapegoat, unexpectedly, Qin Tian willingly stepped up.

"Someone, immediately reply to Qin Tian, saying that I will surely apply for the position of Governor of the City Guard Army for him, ask Qin Tian, as the Governor, to sign off the military order and send it to me. Tell him to uphold his own promises well, remind him that military law is merciless, having signed the military order, if he fails, it's not just about losing the position, but his life!"

To show his seriousness, Nangong Minghua sent a messenger to Hua City, handing over Qin Tian's letter, conveying Nangong Minghua's words.

Afterwards, this messenger remained, waiting to bring back Qin Tian's military order.

"Messenger, please go and rest, the military order I'll sign, but only after my appointment letter arrives. Let's see if City Lord Nangong can accomplish what he's supposed to."

Qin Tian sent away the messenger, turned his head, and at that moment in the discussion hall, his few brothers and trusted generals all looked solemn.

Originally, they were planning to produce True Qi Bombs, but upon learning the contents of Nangong Minghua's letter, they lost interest.

Especially Xiao Zhuang, his handsome face had worry etched on it like a bitter melon: "Boss, this is bad, it's over... You... Look at this..."

Xiao Zhuang spread his hands: "I knew it, I shouldn't have written back for you! Look at this, you were joking, but Nangong Minghua took it seriously! Damn, with Long Tianwu's army of twenty thousand, even Nangong Minghua's forty thousand men guarding the city are uneasy, with us having less than eleven thousand... this..."

Lin Yu sighed: "Oh, boss, this time your joke went too far..."

Ye Kun and Zhao Lanjin, also bowed their heads with uncertainty. After all, relying on this number of people and this kind of strength to resist Long Tianwu of the Dragon Clan was basically impossible!

"No one expected Nangong Minghua to take it seriously..."

Zhou Yang turned his head to Qin Tian, saying: "Boss, this time Nangong Minghua found his scapegoat. He'll definitely send your letter to Ice Emperor, and if Ice Emperor agrees to appoint you as Governor of the City Guard Army, then... if we don't repel the Dragon Clan's army, it'll be disastrous! Execution's very likely."

Qin Tian faintly smiled, stroked his chin, and said: "Since it has come to this, then let it be. I don't believe that having just been promoted to first Deputy Governor of the City Guard Army, in less than a month, I could rise further. Nangong Minghua wants me as his shield, but it won't be that easy."
