Chapter 195: Isn’t It Good to Be Alive?
Lux: "Actually, I... um... the Negan Empire's suggestion is not too bad.
Zeren: "But Prime Minister, our people cannot blindly work for foreign forces. This is an important creed left by the founding father to every Japanese."
Lux: "I know, so I didn't bring it up publicly at the conference table of the Congress. There is no need to discuss publicly some things that cannot be said. What's more, the Negan Empire is unlikely to take out its own treasures. With their ability, I personally doubt whether they will replace them with treasures from other countries. At that time, if we accept it, our country will definitely face more diplomatic problems."
Zeren: "Especially now that we are in a war?"
Lux: "Yes."
In the meeting room next to the Congress meeting room, the Prime Minister who specifically discussed relevant matters with Zelen, Lux did not hesitate to express his personal opinion.
Zeren: "Then on the other hand, the Negan Empire really turns a blind eye to the current situation of our country?"
Lux: "On this issue, the Prime Minister is discussing it in the meeting room next to it. But I can guarantee that the Negan Empire will not help in public. If our country wants to recover the lost territory, it can only rely on our soldiers and every citizen who fights for the country. "
Zeren: "No public help? Privately..."
Lux: "The officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are busy with this matter."
Sometimes diplomacy is not just about the open swords and guns on the table, but more about various transactions under the table.
For this reason, Zelen himself is also well aware.
Especially when the opponent, the Negan Empire essentially has the same national conditions as the Kruro Empire, and also has a strong selfish thought.
Zeren: "Well, I still say that everything is based on the interests of the Kruro Empire. "
Lux: "Understood."
Zeren: "Of course, if possible, I actually hope that the Holy Church can show more of its desire for cooperation. For example, they can help us with the research and development of beam weapons in our country. "
Lux: "They also have a similar beam weapon research plan, which seems to be called Dawn. But Your Majesty, you guessed that they also kept it secret from us. "
Zeren: "Can't you continue to inquire more? ”
Lux: “Your Majesty, we tried our best.”
Zeren: “Thank you for the hard work.”
Although no one said it clearly, both sides knew a fact.
Technology cannot be easily obtained through trading, and it cannot be taken for oneself by stealing.
The most reliable and useful way is to complete research and development through one's own efforts and diligence.
After all, taking the items of the sheep-headed people as an example, all of them have special safety locks. And the safety lock that can detonate the soul of the foreign user and completely tear his body into pieces is not only a traditional open lock, but also a hidden lock hidden inside the item.
In the past history, no one knows how many researchers died under the safety lock of the item because of momentary curiosity or thinking about how to imitate.
So that the Krurod Empire has now learned the lessons of other countries and must not inspect and analyze foreign items without any protective measures.
Lux: “Then about the Eastern Province…”
Zeren: “There is no need to say the rest. I care about this matter more than you do. But we are short of manpower, and we are almost using children under 10 years old to work in the factory. ”
Lux: “So I discussed with the Ministry of National Defense. It is definitely not okay to let the Sheep-Headed People establish an independent kingdom in the Eastern Province. For this reason, our initial opinion is to send special forces and volunteers to the Eastern Province to establish a bridgehead. ”
Zeren: “Not enough.”
Lux: “We have tried our best, and we still don’t know how many underground resistance organizations there are in the Eastern Province, as well as the soldiers and civilians hiding in the mountainous areas. At the same time, who they are loyal to now is also a big problem. ”
Who are they loyal to?
That’s right.
The newly born Krurod Empire is less than two years old, and the previous ten years were the era of the Pao Republic.
So Zelen couldn’t help but close his eyes and mourn in his heart.
He knew that as long as the armed forces in the Eastern Province had guns and food, they would definitely become an independent regime that would defend one side, so he didn’t want to fight against these Japanese exiles.
Unity.
Only unity is the way for the Japanese to survive.
The divided Japanese will definitely perish at the hands of foreigners.
Zeren: “Loyalty... try to contact them as much as possible, and can I... give them some appropriate benefits? "
Lux: "For example..."
Zeren: "Well... conferring a title is definitely not an option. At least in this era, conferring a title is just a title without much practical significance."
Lux: "Recognize their ownership of the land."
Zeren: "Feudal system?"
Lux: "Of course not, I mean that they can become wealthy people and aristocratic forces with the final say. After all, even if our country has aristocrats under the title system, our country still has a tradition of central unity, and they are unlikely to do anything too exaggerated. Moreover, no matter what they do, they can never guarantee their survival without the guarantee of the central government."
Zeren: "Or... do we have any long-range guided missiles that can be sent to the sheep-headed people? Some necessary warnings are always the best advertisements."
As Zelen said, in one of the administrative districts of the Eastern Province, Donghe on Jaya Island was quite terrified to survive the new day.
Because...
Bang!
"Ah!"
Accompanied by a rather shrill wail, a blood-red hole burst out in the chest of a sheep-headed man in front of Donghe.
The Japanese resistance on the island was not destroyed because of the previous occupation of the pig-headed people. On the contrary, the gunshots that sounded from time to time warned Donghe that they would have a hard time now and in the future.
And at this time, Donghe also reacted, activated the burning helmet he was wearing, and began to scout the surrounding targets that could threaten him.
As for the manual revolving rifle he was originally equipped with...
I'm sorry.
That rifle without bullets is equivalent to a piece of scrap metal. In addition, the new sheep-headed leader issued him the burning helmet that he is wearing now, which can burn any object within the sight range, even some souls that he does not understand at all and does not know what it is. Dong He now feels that he is much stronger than before.
Especially when he saw a figure hurriedly fleeing into the nearby bushes and set the clothes on fire after concentrating his mind.
Compared with the rifle that he had to carry before, which was heavy and long, and he had to waste time aiming the gun, and finally he could not withstand the recoil, the burning helmet does not require much training. The feature that the target can be burned by just staring at it makes him feel the taste of liberation.
So when he came to the body that he had set on fire and was completely burned to charcoal, he pulled out a machete to check it.
Although his results looked a bit disgusting and exuded a strong smell of burning fat; but it didn't matter, he became stronger than before.
So strong that he... swish!
It was not difficult to chop off the opponent's head with one knife.
You have to know that he used to shoot with a rifle with a good bayonet, but he couldn't hit the target in any way, and his shoulder was in pain. Not to mention close hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, which was what he feared the most.
Even if the opponent was holding the simplest kitchen knife, he was afraid.
There was no way.
He joined the army just to have enough food to eat, so as to get away from his hometown where there was no food at all. Even after becoming a soldier, he knew very well that he must kill more enemies to get better treatment. However, shooting and firing are simple (actually not simple at all, at most it can only be said to be relatively easy).
The problem is that he doesn't want to risk his life. Isn't it good to be alive? Why must he die? So now that he has equipment that allows him to fight more easily, he hopes that he can cast spells like the Sheep-Headed Commander...
