Chapter 2197

Li Yao has a feeling that he wants to scratch his head.

Why do you always have trouble wherever you go?

But this time, the situation of the human empire is more complicated than that of the flying star world, the blood demon world, the Federation and the ancient Saint world.

This is a huge whirlpool involving hundreds of worlds and thousands of warships.

With a frown, Li Yao felt that the "blood League event" was not simple.

However, he was more interested in the contents of the leaflets distributed by the blood League. After thinking about it, he asked, "by the way, this leaflet says that Dongfang Tuo intends to make peace with the Holy League, so he is a traitor of the Empire, a despicable capitulator. Is this true or false?"

"It's not clear whether Dongfang Tuo has made peace with the holy alliance, or even secretly contacted with the holy alliance people. But he is indeed a moderate. He has repeatedly proposed in the Senate that the war should be ended as soon as possible, and even blocked the delivery of logistics and military supplies to curb the mindless invasion of some fleets. Therefore, he has offended many front-line officers, The blood League will only regard him as the first in line target of assassination. "

Li Linghai said, "of course, dongfangtuo is only a representative of the overall interests of the four general election families. The current situation is that the four general election families want to end the war as soon as possible, while the small and medium nobles, world leaders and emerging warlords outside the Empire still want to continue to attack. The two sides are deadlocked and the contradictions are becoming increasingly intensified."

Li Yaowei was stunned: "why is this?"

"It's very simple that the four election emperors and Marquis want to carve up dozens of newly recovered worlds as soon as possible, and confirm and solidify each other's interests and even their spheres of influence. If they want to carve up the benefits, they naturally need a stable environment. If the front line is still fighting day and night, there is no way to distribute the interests."

Li Linghai explained, "but for those small and medium-sized nobles and emerging warlords in the outer world of the Empire, they do not have much confidence that they can take too much advantage when they divide up their interests. That is to say, they may be given several resource planets, which are too far away from their home. They do not have enough military projection and material transmission capacity to protect and operate these planets, Sooner or later, it will be taken away.

"In other words, more than half of the dozens of worlds that have been painstakingly recovered in the past decade are destined to fall into the belly of the four election emperors and Marquis families.

"But it's different to keep on attacking.

"If you recover a new planet, you can dig three feet, plunder all the resources on the planet, hide them in your own fleet, or send them back to your old nest through secret channels.

"Not to mention the accumulated achievements, they can also be used as bargaining chips, and they can falsely report war losses and get a lot of supplements from the rear.

"As for the follow-up construction and operation of this planet, it is none of these warlord fleets' business.

"Think about it. If you are a warlord in the outer world of the Empire, a warlord with an inferior fleet, are you willing to continue to plunder like this, or end the war and go back to your backwater to drink?

"Most of the time, the holy alliance may not even implement the" scorched earth strategy "on the planets they abandoned. Instead, the imperial army who recovered these planets carried out destructive looting, and then lied that this planet was already scorched earth - the base camp of the expeditionary army. What can we do with these greedy and rebellious guys?

"All the miscellaneous troops and local warlords have done this. Can they be swept away by the royal family of the fourth general election?"

Li yaozhuo pondered for a long time: "I understand that the four general election emperors and Marquis families hope to make use of the Zapai army and local warlords to rush to the front, to open up territory for the Empire, that is, to expand territory for them, and to weaken the strength of Zapai army and local warlords by the way; However, the local warlords and the local warlords are neither good nor stupid. They are the first to drain the use value of the newly recovered territory. Then they lie about how many warships they have lost, and they are in urgent need of supplies and even ordnance. Finally, they come back with a full load, but they call the families of the four general election emperors to bear the blame and wipe their buttocks. In a word, both sides are not good birds. "

"Yes, the language is crude, but you sum it up quite correctly."

The corners of Li Linghai's mouth can't help but evoke a sneer, saying, "the four emperors and Marquis have dominated the Empire for hundreds of years, but they regard others as monkeys and pigs, and they think they can play with people all over the world.

"Maybe at the beginning of the war, they really held the idea you just said, hoping that the miscellaneous troops and local warlords would" be the vanguard of the king "and fight against the holy alliance, and they would be able to reap profits.

"But they underestimated two points: the first was the insatiable and cunning of the local warlords and the second was the will of the holy alliance to resist.

"In the hundreds of years when the human Empire opened its territory, it encountered several powerful states and independent regimes, and finally defeated the enemy. By the standards of these former enemies, dozens of industrial worlds were captured, and the main fleet was defeated and defeated again and again. The so-called" will to resist "should be nothing, I'm going to surrender.

"But the holy alliance is obviously not any country that the Empire once conquered.

"Shengmeng people are crazy believers who absolutely believe in their true God, Pangu people; It can also be said that it is a kind of flesh and blood machine that has wiped out human nature, without the concept of fear and pain.

"No matter the crazy believers or the flesh and blood machines, how can they choose to surrender?

"Therefore, even if dozens of great worlds have been lost, and even if several main fleets have become scattered in the rout, there is still no sign of instability within the holy alliance. It seems that it doesn't matter if this millennium war continues for another millennium."

Li Yao said: "but the empire can't stand it?"

Li Linghai said with a bitter smile: "yes, no matter how many differences there are between the practitioners and the immortals, at least we are all people with seven emotions and six desires and free thoughts. We will suffer and resist. The Empire has shed too much blood in this war, and the national economy is on the verge of collapse. Therefore, we must end the war as soon as possible, otherwise, the war will be over, Not only can we not keep the front line now, but even the dozens of worlds that we have just acquired may be lost again, and even endanger the hinterland of the Empire!

"Although I appreciate the patriotic enthusiasm of the young officers on the front line, on the contrary, I hold the same position with Dongfang Tuo, that is, the family of the four general election emperors - I am not a fanatical warmonger. The war must end. If there is any possibility of making peace with the Holy alliance, I will try it."

Li Yaoqi said: "is it possible to make peace with shengmeng people?"

"Why not?"

Li Linghai said faintly, "the war between the Empire and the holy alliance has lasted for thousands of years. It's not every year. There is always a time for both sides to stop and breathe. Otherwise, both the Empire and the Holy Alliance would have been wiped out long ago."

Li Yao can accept Li Linghai's statement intellectually, but he still can't accept it emotionally: "I just think that the peace talks between the imperial people and the shengmeng people... Are a little strange."

"Then, isn't it strange that a true practitioner and an immortal are chatting on the flagship of an imperial rebel?"

Li Linghai glanced at Li Yao. "There are a lot of realists in my family and in the family of the four emperors and marquis. For a realist," idea "is never the first consideration, and" interest "is. As long as there are enough interests, not to mention the saints or practitioners, why can't they cooperate, or at least temporarily suspend the war, even if they are extraterritorial demons?"

Lee was speechless.

It seems that he should be glad that imperial queen Li Linghai is not a "fundamentalist" immortal.

If it's really the purest kind of immortal cultivator, I'm afraid to see his first face, so I should take out my sword and cut him down, right?

After a little combing, Li Yao nodded and said, "I see. What should we do now?"

Li Linghai's eyes were deep. After staring at Li Yao for a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind to put all his eggs in one basket and said, "can I absolutely trust you?"

"If what you do, as you said earlier, is very good for all ordinary people in the Empire, then you can absolutely trust me," he said

"Good!"

Li Linghai's eyes shrunk, as if he had turned into two long-standing swords, but when he came out of the scabbard, he was still a sword with broken hair. He said in a deep voice, "let's' innovators' come to power. It's definitely better for ordinary people than the powerful and powerful people who control the government now.

"But with the" blood League "incident, our career is in danger!

"I secretly left the imperial capital to kill Li Lingfeng. I left a specially trained stand in in the imperial capital. I can deal with it in ordinary occasions, but when I encounter this kind of trouble, I will show my flaws.

"We have been driven to a dead end. We have no choice but to show our cards in advance!

"Our strength has not yet been accumulated in place, so the risk of showdown ahead of time is great. It is very likely that the next bloody battle will be extremely dangerous. At this time of life and death, you who have the dual talent of fighting and refining weapons are undoubtedly our trump card, and have the power to reverse the universe!

"Vulture Lee Yao, in the name of the queen of the Empire, I can promise you that as long as you are willing to work together with our" innovators "to tide over the difficulties and seize the whole empire, you can get everything you want. Even if you have unexpected advantages, I will not be stingy!"

Li Yao blinked: "Er, for example?"

"Like..."

With a smile, Li Linghai said, "three days ago, an imperial elder just fell down. It is expected that in the next year and a half, hundreds of imperial elders will fall down one by one. Perhaps more than half of the 500 seats in the Imperial Senate will be vacant. It is urgent for new elders to fill in.

"Have you ever thought about becoming an imperial elder?"
