Chapter 983 Do I still have the qualifications?
Bonaparte was confused at this moment.
The entire Maple Leaf City has less than 20 defenders, and according to the latest news, the defenders have collapsed and 5000 of them have escaped.
And this number is still rising gradually, Bonaparte has become discouraged.
The Xifa Empire in the south couldn't defeat itself, and it even went so far as to turn Dayan into its enemy.
What the hell are you doing?
What to fight with?
Bonaparte looked at the palace in front of him, and all his words turned into a long sigh.
Sorrow!
Just as Bonaparte was sitting alone in the hall worrying, one of his men ran in in a panic.
Bonaparte no longer had his former violent temper, but instead looked calm.
"what's up?"
The soldier spoke in panic after hearing this.
"Something bad has happened. Lady Ellie has disappeared..."
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, Bonaparte jumped up, grabbed the soldier by the collar, and said in disbelief.
"How is this possible? This is impossible!"
The soldier then took out a letter and handed it to Bonaparte tremblingly.
Bonaparte took the letter, and when he read the contents carefully, his face was filled with shock.
"Dear Bonaparte, by the time you read this letter, I shall be gone.
You don't need to know where I went, but what I want to tell you is that I am actually a spy for the Xifa Empire.
I deceived you, I played you around, and I destroyed your country.
But it is undeniable that I found myself falling in love with you.
But as a spy, I cannot have love.
The emperor gave me one last order, which is to kill you.
But I chose to refuse, and perhaps only death will be waiting for me.
If there is a next life, I will never be a spy again. I wish you well.
Spy Ellie."
After reading the letter, Bonaparte was stunned.
He didn't expect that the person he trusted the most was actually sent by his opponent.
After a brief silence, Bonaparte began to swing his fists and feet like an angry lion, smashing things in the hall.
The messenger stood there motionless, even when the fragments splashed on him, he did not move.
After a round of smashing and looting, Bonaparte gradually calmed down, then looked at the messenger in front of him, a trace of confusion appeared on his face, and then he spoke.
"What? Aren't you leaving yet?
Everyone else ran, why didn't you run?"
After hearing this, the messenger knelt on one knee and said seriously.
“Because you are my leader! When you led the army, I saved my village and gave my whole family food to eat.
I will never forget your life-saving grace. I may not be well educated, but I know that I should serve my country with loyalty and die for my king!"
After the messenger finished speaking, he kowtowed to Bonaparte.
Bonaparte smiled self-deprecatingly when he heard this.
"To die for you? Sorry, I'm not worthy of you dying for me, please go away...
With these, return to your hometown and become a rich man.
Consider these rewards for your loyalty."
After saying this, Bonaparte picked up a purse from the ground and put it in the soldier's hand.
When the soldier saw this, he immediately knelt down.
"Sir...this..."
"Go away, the New West Empire is over. I don't know if my revolution is right, and I don't know if my revolution is successful.
If I could go back to the past, I would still choose revolution without hesitation..."
After saying this, Bonaparte left on his own. The messenger looked at the heavy bag of money in his hand and finally turned around and left.
At this moment in Maple Leaf City, although Bonaparte ordered the city to be strictly guarded.
But almost everyone is running away.
Those ministers who abused their power for personal gain even used their authority to find ways to transfer their property away.
In the past two years, they have used their power to plunder the people's wealth and even embezzled gold coins from the national treasury.
They are all extremely rich.
But when Bonaparte needed money the most, these ministers chose to remain silent.
The fact that the New Westfa Empire has become what it is today is inseparable from their greed.
Bonaparte was a qualified general but not a qualified leader.
Inside the palace.
Bonaparte walked through the empty palace.
Almost all the palace maids and eunuchs also ran away.
There were even some diehard supporters of Bonaparte who prepared ropes and hanged themselves on the day the city was captured.
Bonaparte walked all the way to the door of the treasury and opened it.
But he saw that there was not a single gold coin left in the treasury.
Not even a moldy copper coin could be seen.
The noise of opening the treasury also attracted two soldiers on guard.
The two soldiers were originally guarding nearby, but when they heard the movement from the treasury, they immediately rushed over.
Just as he was about to yell, he saw Bonaparte standing in the treasury.
Then he immediately put away his weapon and said respectfully.
"Monsieur Bonaparte!"
Bonaparte ignored the two soldiers and spoke in a self-deprecating manner.
"Is this the treasury filled with gold that my ministers talked about?
Hahaha! "
Bonaparte laughed immediately after he finished speaking.
The two soldiers lowered their heads after hearing this.
Bonaparte then buckled two pieces of gold on the pillars of the treasury.
Placed in the hands of two soldiers.
"It's fate that we meet. And judging from your attire, you are not soldiers guarding the treasury. You have proven your loyalty so far. Let's go, everyone!"
After saying this, Bonaparte turned around and returned to his own bedroom.
The commander of the imperial guards trotted over and knelt before Bonaparte.
"Sir! The Xifa Empire's vanguard is less than five kilometers away from here, and the assassins are ready! As long as you give the order, we can take you far away!"
Bonaparte secretly kept more than 400 assassins.
These assassins were originally intended to be used to assassinate hostile targets, but now, the commander of the Imperial Guards seems to intend to use these assassins to take Bonaparte away.
But at this moment, Bonaparte no longer had the vigor and vigor of the past, but instead looked dejected.
"Why leave? Is there any need to leave? Can my leaving change the outcome of the empire's fall?"
After saying this, Bonaparte changed his dejected expression and finally walked directly to the clothes hanger beside him, stroking the military uniform on the hanger with his hand.
This military uniform was originally sewn by Eleanor for her, and it was also the uniform she wore when she started her army.
After becoming the ruler of the new French Empire, Bonaparte never wore this uniform again...
Bonaparte wanted to put on this uniform again and fight again.
But when Bonaparte was about to put it on, he suddenly froze.
This military uniform was originally sewn by Eleanor for herself, so that she could overthrow the tyranny of West France and establish a new empire where everyone could live and work in peace and have enough food and clothing.
But what about now? The empire is no longer glorious, and I am no longer the same person I once was.
Am I still qualified to wear this military uniform?
