Chapter 1123

Zhao Tuo's voice rang out abruptly.

This left the generals present dumbfounded.

What is this situation?

Does no one want to be commander?

This scene made them feel it was incredible.

Why have they all abstained one by one?

Can they be a bit more serious?

What kind of act are they playing at?

That's not a small soldier; that's the position of commander!

Is the commander's position no longer desirable?

That is a commander who can command thousands of troops and horses!

Why did these few people abstain?

Zhao Tuo ignored everyone's confusion.

He bowed to Ying Ying Zi Ye and said: "Please, Your Highness, grant your permission."

He still had some self-awareness.

He had some prestige in Nanyue, but in front of the Empire's great army, he was just an ordinary general.

Don't forget, they were currently going to pursue Ren Xiao.

They were going to the Peacock Dynasty together with Ren Xiao and the others.

Ren Xiao was his former direct superior.

Under these circumstances, if he were to be the commander.

It might arouse suspicion from some people.

After all, his relationship with Ren Xiao was not ordinary; many people knew this.

Not long ago, Ren Xiao was still his superior, and now that he had defected, they were going to pursue him.

Under these circumstances, how could he be the commander?

The consequence of doing so would be an inability to command respect.

Even if His Highness were to name him as this commander, he would refuse without hesitation.

If such an awkward situation hadn't occurred, he would have been very happy to be this commander.

As it stands now, it's better to bring it up proactively; that's not shameful.

It's better than being brushed aside.

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at Zhao Tuo in surprise.

He hadn't expected Zhao Tuo to give up as well.

But after a moment's thought, he understood.

He was avoiding suspicion.

This Zhao Tuo is quite smart.

He doesn't want to bring trouble upon himself. ===== CHAPTER 1125 =====
