After all, this was the first time Li Huailin convened a meeting at the continent level after he became the emperor of the continent. Of course, there was no fixed procedure for the meeting, so these people felt that Li Huailin's question time was quite strange.
Of course, this kind of thing was definitely very normal in reality, but these people didn't know how to start, so they just looked at each other.
"If you have any questions, just raise your hand, and I will call you up to ask," Li Huailin explained.
This time, everyone understood. A few people discussed with the think tank behind them, and finally, someone raised his hand.
"Your Majesty, the Undead Empire will always be on your side." The one who spoke was the fake Emperor Wotcha, also known as Yaze. The first person that Li Huailin called up immediately stood on the side. The Undead's original intention was probably to put a little pressure on the others, but Li Huailin didn't do that. He just pressed his hand and gestured for the other party to sit down.
"Your Majesty, do you have a battle plan?" This time, Li Huailin called up the Great Chieftain of the Orcs, Penello. Something had happened to the Orcs recently, so Great Chieftain Dilba, whom Li Huailin was more familiar with, took the blame and stepped down (this blame was forcefully thrown onto him by Li Huailin). The new Great Chieftain was Penello, the leader of the Foxes. Li Huailin was also more familiar with this guy. After all, they had met many times. Penello belonged to the more intelligent and stable type, so the questions he asked were also more intelligent.
"Battle plan?" Li Huailin looked at him with a smile.
"Your Majesty, do you want the Ancient Race and the Protoss to fight each other, while we wait to reap the benefits?" Penello asked again.
"Penello, to be honest, now is not the time to talk about battle plans." Li Huailin spread his hands. "I said before that now is the time to pick a side. The people sitting here may not necessarily be on my side, so I will tell you my battle plan now. Someone can pass it on to the Protoss later … Am I stupid or what?"
"S-Sorry, Your Majesty …" Penello felt that his question was a little silly after hearing Li Huailin's words. Indeed, why would Li Huailin tell them the battle plan now? However, he asked this because he was a little anxious. Just like Li Huailin said, if this was an ordinary war, and Li Huailin asked them to pick a side, of course, everyone would want to stand on the winning side. Penello certainly wanted to know Li Huailin's battle plan, so he asked directly because he was anxious.
Penello was a little embarrassed and wanted to explain that he did not treat Li Huailin as a fool, but Li Huailin stopped him with one hand. "Okay, I understand what you mean. You don't have to explain too much. I know that you must be very confused now. After all, you may be fighting against an enemy that you may not have imagined. That's why I can tell you something now. To put it simply, I definitely have a battle plan. I believe those who are familiar with me should know that I've never lost before. I won't easily say anything that I'm not sure of. You just need to understand this. "
Li Huailin's words were so certain and confident that no one dared to question it. Yes, what Li Huailin said was indeed the truth. In terms of war, Li Huailin had indeed never really lost. Otherwise, how could he climb to the position of the continent's emperor? So if it was really a war, everyone felt that it was really right to follow Li Huailin. But the problem now seemed to be not as simple as fighting a war.
"Huailin." Anthony stood up and said to Li Huailin. "To be honest, Huailin, I personally support you. I don't have a very good impression of the Protoss, but you are my brother. So if you really want to go to war with the Protoss, I will definitely stand on your side."
As soon as Anthony finished speaking, several people from the think tank behind him could no longer sit still. One by one, they wanted to get up and say something to Anthony. However, Anthony held down a minister who was about to get up and used his gaze to make the minister swallow back his words. Yes, Anthony was very serious now. It could be said that his whole body exuded the domineering aura of an emperor. Just by looking at him, the minister did not dare to speak.
Anthony then turned to Li Huailin and said in a serious tone, "But brother, I don't just represent myself anymore. I am now the Emperor of the Nasser Empire. I bear the fate of the entire Human Empire, so I cannot use my personal preferences to decide the fate of the entire Empire. As far as I know, my people will find it very difficult to accept the fact that we are going to war with the Protoss ….. Therefore, I have decided that this time, I want all of my people to participate. If my people decide to go to war with the Protoss, then I will lead them to stand on your side. But if my people don't agree, then I ….. will resign from my position as Emperor and personally help you fight against the Protoss. "
"What?" The ministers behind Anthony exclaimed in surprise. The leaders of the other countries were also very surprised. Anthony's decision was really unexpected. However, it seemed that the rumors of Anthony and Li Huailin being close friends were true. Anthony was prepared to stand on Li Huailin's side regardless of whether he was representing the country or himself, which proved this point.
However, Li Huailin's reaction was a little strange. He thought that he would be moved by Anthony's display of friendship, but he didn't. Li Huailin just sighed, then said, "Anthony, I really don't know what to say about you."
"Eh?" Anthony was also surprised.
"First of all, a person who doesn't have any attachment to the throne can't be an Emperor." Li Huailin said faintly. "You're the one who is irresponsible to the people if you want to resign so easily. Right now, the Murat family is in power in the Human Empire. You and your sister are the only two people in the Empire. What do you want to do? Let your sister succeed as Queen," Li Huailin said.
"This …" Anthony scratched his head. It seemed like he hadn't really thought about it.
"Second, letting the people choose their own path is also bullshit. This is still a feudal society. What do you mean by suddenly playing democracy? Don't mess around, okay? The principle of a feudal society is that the country alone makes the decisions, okay? Even if the Emperor leads the people into a pit of sh * t, the people will still follow, okay? As an Emperor, if you don't know how to abuse your power, then what's the point of playing? "Li Huailin said.
"Huh?" Anthony was stunned.
"Third, how do you know that your people won't agree to us going against the Protoss? Isn't there a precedent for this? A few days ago, when you demolished the temple of the Goddess of Harvest, the whole country was decorated with lanterns and colored banners. There were even drums and gongs in celebration. Have you forgotten about that? "Li Huailin said.
Li Huailin was telling the truth about demolishing the temple. To be honest, Anthony still didn't know what was going on. The Goddess of Harvest was the protector of the Terran Empire for thousands of years. In theory, if you demolished her temple, the whole country should be going against you. But as Li Huailin said, everyone was celebrating with gongs and gongs. This made Anthony really confused.
"So, you don't have to think too much about it. Just directly issue an imperial edict to say that we are going against the Protoss. Then, you can see the reaction of the people below. I guarantee that they will still decorate the temple with lanterns and colored banners. So, you can rest assured and follow me. I don't even see you as an outsider," Li Huailin said.
"Ah … really?" Anthony was really a little uncertain. If it were someone else, Anthony would definitely think that it was bullshit. But when it came to Li Huailin, he really couldn't judge it according to common sense.
"Don't worry. You can go and issue the imperial edict now." Li Huailin waved his hand. "Anyway, I've already counted you in."
Anthony rubbed his head and sat down. The others looked at the two of them in confusion. What was going on?
"Does anyone else have any other questions?" Li Huailin looked at the people around him and asked. But at this time, no one raised their hand. In fact, it wasn't that everyone had no questions. It was that they suddenly realized that they couldn't raise any more questions. Yes, the most important thing now was that the Humans and the Undead had expressed their stance.
On the continent where the Hua Xia region was located, the Humans and the Undead were the most powerful countries. The Dwarves and the Demons were now considered as affiliated countries of the two countries. So, their words carried very little weight. On the other hand, the Beastmen had just suffered a disaster, so they couldn't even protect themselves at the moment. So, their words carried very little weight. The Elves were the only ones who still had a say. The other small countries were all following the six major countries. The Elves were the kind that came to make up the numbers.
And the reason why they didn't dare to speak up now was because the Humans and the Undead were now clearly following Li Huailin. So, if you say that you want to follow the Divine Race, aren't you courting death? Li Huailin can destroy you first before dealing with the Divine Race. Right now, the Divine Race is still dealing with the old races. Do they have time to save you?
So in fact, not everyone here wanted to stand with Li Huailin. But now, they didn't dare to say anything. Even if they wanted to say something, they should at least wait for the Divine Race to respond.
With the current situation, Li Huailin could directly force them to stand with him. However, Li Huailin didn't do this. Instead, he took the initiative to take a step back and said, "Since there are no problems, you should think about it carefully. I will now give you time. I will hold a second meeting here at noon tomorrow. Those who want to stand with me can come and participate. Those who don't want to come can also choose not to. At that time, I will also show the people who come that I have the confidence to fight against the Divine Race. "
