The number of people in the central square of the Devil Clan's main city also gradually increased. The newcomers were, of course, the civilians of the Demons' city. Their reason for coming here was simple. They weren't here to capture Bayzera, nor were they here to join the army. They just didn't know what to do, so they decided to follow the crowd and see what they could do.
That's right, 90% of the people here didn't know what to do. Previously, they were hiding in their homes. Anyway, it wasn't their business to fight here. Although they had a good impression of the former Emperor Bayzera, risking their lives for him … This was something they had to consider. Moreover, they had experienced the previous siege, so they knew how powerful the Undead army was. As for throwing their lives away … It was better not to worry about it.
Most of the people's decision was that after the battle, they would follow the winner. As for who won, it had nothing to do with them. Therefore, everyone shut their doors and windows and hid in their homes until the battle ended. It was a pity that they couldn't do so now because they received news that Li Huailin's new order forced them to make a choice.
Li Huailin said that they had to capture Bayzera before his army arrived. Otherwise, the entire city would be massacred. They couldn't wait any longer, so they only had two choices. Capture Bayzera and offer him up, or join Bayzera to fight against the Undead. If they didn't do anything, they would die if they waited. Of course, that wouldn't work. However, they still couldn't decide what to do. But they couldn't just stay here, so most people chose to come to the central square to take a look.
Bayzera was standing on the platform in the middle of the plaza. He was very obvious, and his subordinates were guarding him nervously. Seeing the increasing number of civilians, his subordinates were also a little nervous. Bayzera only had about a hundred guards by his side. They didn't have many people to begin with, and they still had to attack the inner city and guard the city gates. Therefore, after splitting up, they only had a few people left. Although they were armed, there were already thousands of civilians gathered around them. If they really wanted to harm Bayzera, they definitely wouldn't be able to stop them.
On the other hand, Bayzera wasn't that nervous. In fact, even though the commoners were looking at Bayzera, no one immediately rushed up to attack him. Everyone looked at the people around them in confusion, feeling that most of them were just waiting to see how things would turn out.
"You want to go? We don't know when the Undead army will return. If we capture him now, we can still live, "a few civilians whispered.
"Are you f * cking stupid? This is our Emperor. The current Emperor, Marwayne, is a puppet of the Undead. If we capture him, the Demons will become the Undead's vassals. "
"Then what should we do? Why don't we join him and fight against the undead together? "a hot-blooded youth asked weakly.
"Do you want to die?" "The undead army is so powerful. They'll be back soon. Won't our whole family die here?"
Everyone was discussing among themselves, but they were all confused and didn't know what to do. At this moment, Bayzera looked at the number of people present and knew that it was time. He cleared his throat and shouted to everyone, "My fellow Demons, please be quiet and listen to me!"
Bayzera's voice wasn't loud, but the crowd immediately quieted down. Everyone wanted to see Bayzera's attitude. In fact, the people were still on his side. The new Emperor was just a puppet. This was something that even a three-year-old child knew. If it weren't for the fact that the Undead were too powerful, they would definitely recognize Bayzera as their Emperor.
"Everyone, let me first talk about our current situation," Bayzera said calmly. Bayzera, on the other hand, had a calm look on his face as he slowly said, "Currently, my army still has 5,000 men (exaggerated). We have already taken control of the entire outer city and are currently attacking the inner city. I believe that we will soon be able to take control of the inner city and reclaim the palace. The situation seems good, but we are also facing a huge danger. Now, the undead army is charging towards us. They have 50,000 soldiers. Although this city is strong, we don't have enough soldiers to defend against such a huge army. Therefore, I really need everyone's help. "
"You should know the current situation of us Demons. Yes, in the previous war, we lost to the despicable humans and undead. Now, they have supported my foolish son as a puppet and are inhumanely exploiting us Demons. This exploitation isn't just material, but also spiritual. They are slowly dividing our demon race. Perhaps after a few decades, the people on the continent will no longer hear about the 'demon race'. They will only know about the 'slaves' of the human race and the undead race. Can you imagine how terrifying this is? "
"Of course, I also know that most of you are thinking things like 'it shouldn't be like this' or 'what does this have to do with me'. Anyway, you are thinking about how you can survive. But what I want to tell you is, don't be so naive! The humans and undead are our mortal enemies. They will never be polite to us Demons. Now, they are keeping you alive so that you can be their slaves and work for them. Even if you don't think about yourself, think about your children and grandchildren. Do you want them to become the slaves of the humans and undead? "
Bayzera's words resonated with the commoners. Yes, the humans and undead would never be polite to them. No one could refute Bayzera's words because it was the truth.
Looking at the reactions of the commoners, Beyzera nodded. Now that they had more or less stirred up their emotions, it was time to paint a pie in the sky and tell them what they should do so that they would be stirred up by him. Therefore, after giving the commoners some time to think, Bayzera raised his voice again and said, "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!"
"We shouldn't despair yet. We still have a chance, a chance to turn defeat into victory," Bayzera said excitedly. Bayzera said excitedly, "Everyone, listen up. The Undead army has already left, and there are only two groups of Undead soldiers left in the city. There are less than a thousand Undead soldiers left. Although there are still 50,000 Undead soldiers heading this way, as long as we rely on this big city, we will be able to defend against the enemy's attack. As long as we can stop this attack, we will have the hope of building a new kingdom. Of course, this can't be done by me and my troops alone. I need all of your help. "
"You should know that the undead have issued an order to capture me before the enemy arrives. Otherwise, they will slaughter the entire city. Now, no one can escape. But this time, the choice is up to you. Join me to fight against the undead. Fight for us demons, for our homeland, for our children, or succumb to the undead and turn your children into other people's slaves. The choice is now in the hands of all of you. "
"We don't have much time left. The undead army is about to arrive. Now, we have to start preparing for a defensive battle. Therefore, I can only give you 15 minutes to consider this matter. After 15 minutes, all those who are willing to join us, please go to the side and sign up. We will distribute weapons to you and instruct you to defend. Of course, if you want to capture me and offer me to the undead, I won't hide. I will stand here and you can come and capture me. Don't worry, no matter what choice you make, I don't think there will be any complaints because this is the future of us Demons. Everyone needs to make a decision together. That's all I have to say. The rest is up to you. "
Bayzera closed his eyes after saying that. It felt like everyone was in charge. However, everyone was moved by Bayzera's words. They didn't have their own opinions to begin with, and they didn't know if they should rebel or not. Now that there was a leader who had a lot of prestige, and everyone believed in this guy, the other party had drawn a big pie for them, and it sounded quite reasonable. Since they couldn't run away, they might as well do it.
The hot-blooded youths were the first to react. They were the easiest to mobilize. As soon as Bayzera finished speaking, many young Demons roared, "Bayzera! Bayzera! Bayzera! "
"We are willing to rebel!"
"Drive the undead out!"
The crowd immediately went into a frenzy. With this kind of atmosphere, some of the hesitant people were also motivated. Soon, most of the civilians were mobilized. Now, even if someone wanted to capture Bayzera, they wouldn't dare to do so.
Bayzera was overjoyed when he saw this situation. Of course, this was all part of his plan. When he heard the order from the undead, Bayzera knew that it would work. Originally, it was difficult to mobilize this group of people. But now that this order had dragged everyone who was watching the show into the water, Bayzera was confident that he could convince them. As expected, the actual effect was very good. Just looking at the current situation was enough to tell.
"Now that everyone is willing to stand up to defend our race and country, I will issue an order according to the order of the demon emperor. Hurry up and inform those who haven't arrived yet. Let as many people as possible participate in the defensive battle. In 15 minutes, everyone will gather here. General Mildred will tell you how to defend against the undead. Remember, we are fighting for our people! "Bayzera shouted.
