Such righteous words shocked her heart, and Angel couldn't tell whether they were words from the heart or words used to persuade the ministers.
When Wen Yan said that the city wall was the bottom line and there was no way to retreat, she glanced at the audience with a majestic gaze. The human officials lowered their heads and did not dare to touch this gaze, while the saints stood up and showed their determination to welcome the king. review.
"I know that you all regard human beings as food. I know that you view human beings just like humans view pigs. But now our tribe is a civilized country recognized by the human government. I hope you will understand honor and disgrace and stop being like beasts. They will only put survival and eating first.”
"I hope you remember that human flesh is the food of our people. And humans, humans within the empire, regardless of their status, are all subjects of the empire!"
"Since they are subjects of the empire, the empire must provide them with protection!"
The human officials exchanged looks in surprise, trying to find the answer in each other's eyes. They could hear that Wen Yan was very serious when he said it. This was not the kind of politician-like promise that could be thrown away after saying it, but an imperial edict that was true to its word.
"You." Wen Yan pointed to the saint kneeling in front of the temple, "You can go to the slums and kill a third-class citizen. You only need to pay a week's salary and will not be punished. This is your privilege as a high-ranking official of the empire. Do you know where this privilege comes from? Do you know why those third-class citizens know that their lives are as cheap as ants, but they never think of escaping from the empire?”
"Because, because..." The person being questioned hesitated and couldn't answer.
"Because they think the empire can protect them. Remember, your privileges come from the prestige of the empire! The moment we give up our territory and our people, the empire has died! Not from the demonic tide, but from me. Hand!" Wen Yan asked sternly, "Tai A, do you know the crime?"
"I am aware of my guilt." Tai'a fell to the ground in shame and did not dare to argue.
"If you make slanderous remarks and disturb the king's heart, you should be killed according to the law. I will keep your life for the time being. When I meet the demonic tide, I will take action myself."
"I obey the decree."
"Step back." Wen Yan waved his hand gently, as if throwing away a bag of garbage.
Tai'a retreated to the queue of the Yuanjiang faction, and then a representative of the other faction came out and knelt in front of the temple.
"Your Majesty is wise, even if we fight to the last soldier, our clan will never give up our territory and its people... I believe that we should send envoys to ask for help from China and the Russian Federation. By sticking to the borders of the empire, we are protecting our people. , is also sharing for them Pressure, just tell humans that after being equipped with modern military weapons, we can better fight against the demonic tide, share more pressure on them, and reduce their military casualties. I think China and the Russian Federation will not refuse this reasonable request. "
Compared with Tai'a's suggestion, this statement is not too stupid, but it has not gained the recognition of other members of the same race. It is such a shame for the saint race to ask for help from humans.
Angel also disagreed with this idea, but it had nothing to do with shame. Angel knew that China and the Russian Federation wanted to see all the saints who had eaten living people die in battle. In addition, the human government was wary of the saints. The empire wanted to take advantage of it. Coming to arms is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
"No need to ask for help."
Wen Yan was tired of this stupid court meeting, so he stood up and said.
"My subjects are protected by me."
………………
In the dry tent, Yang Xiaoqian was listening to a special military meeting.
The reason why this military meeting is special is that the military operations objectives will change depending on the situation.
The meeting was held by representatives of the Inner Mongolia Military Region of China, and military commanders of the Russian Federation's Siberian Forces were invited to discuss the combat plan against the Mongolian demonic tide.
To summarize the main content of the meeting: the army is pressing down on the border and supervising the battlefield. If the mutants abide by the agreement and let all war criminals die on the battlefield against the demon tide, then send troops to eliminate the remaining monsters, assist the Shengyuan Empire for a fee, and keep the mutants. Continuing bloodline. And if the mutants break the agreement, then the Holy Yuan Empire will be wiped out directly and the mutants will be exterminated.
Regarding the question raised by the Russian representative - the Russian representative could not understand why they should provide help when the mutants abide by the contract - the Chinese representative gave this explanation:
"Mutants have always wanted to prove to the people of the world that they are not monsters that only eat people, but an intelligent race with emotions like humans. Whether we believe it or not, we should uphold objective principles and give them a chance to prove themselves Opportunity. Now there are only two choices before the mutant war criminals: one, die with other members of the same race, and two, die for other members of the same race.”
"I believe that if mutants are intelligent races with emotions like us humans, then they will definitely choose the latter. If mutant war criminals choose the former, it proves that mutants are not as worthy of sympathy as they say, then we They should be exterminated without leaving any further trouble.”
"But if all mutant war criminals choose the latter, it proves that mutants are also civilized and intelligent races willing to make sacrifices for the survival of their own kind and the continuation of the ethnic group. Then, in the spirit of humanitarianism, we should provide assistance. Of course, it’s paid assistance.”
The representatives of the Russian Federation did not know that the real reason was that in the distant Shangjing, two beings who were playing tricks on the world had already reached an agreement.
And these nonsense explanations cannot convince the Russian representatives. The real reason why they solemnly shake hands with the Chinese representatives is the benefits provided by China.
In order for Bai to willingly give up his brain, Liu Yuanzhou was willing to pay a sufficient price. If Liu Yuanzhou was a madman who would do anything to achieve his goals, he might not even be willing to destroy the Russian Federation.
After the representatives of both parties reached a consensus, the agreement documents were quickly delivered to the conference table. After signing and exchanging documents, the military meeting came to an end. Everyone, including Yang Xiaoqian, turned their attention to the screen that transmitted the real-time surveillance footage. The results seen on the screen will determine the survival of a race.
In the outer city of the Shengyuan Empire, hundreds of mutants are gathering on the city wall. In three concentric circles with the imperial palace outward, all mutants and humans who believe in mutant religions gather under the city wall, seeming to have forgotten what is outside the city wall. Dozens of kilometers away is the overwhelming demonic tide.
On the high wall, to the left of the flag, stands a figure that attracts the attention of all people. He is majestic and yet elegant. He is the emperor who personally protects his subjects.
The obstructive imperial robe has been taken off, and the flimsy armor is unnecessary. Wen Yan only wears a thin and fitted robe with a stand-up collar and stretches out his arm to the right.
"Too!"
The cry is like the roar of a dragon.
Tai'a stood next to Wen Yan, with his arms folded across his chest, his skin and flesh peeled away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he transformed into a giant sword based on his spine and skeleton.
Wen Yan held Tai'a in his arms and flew away, leaving only a shout on the city wall. "Commanders, follow me to meet the enemy!"
