Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 425: Message to the Barbarian People
The atmosphere in the capital is very tense now.

Soldiers with swords in hand and solemn expressions could be seen rushing past on the streets at any time. Some rumors also spread, saying that if the Barbarian King did not surrender, Li Changfeng would bombard the royal capital.

The power of Daqian artillery has long been known to everyone.

But those who have truly seen its power are only soldiers who have been on the battlefield. Others are just hearsay. Many civilians regard Daqian's so-called air force as a legend.

Some people even question the existence of hot air balloons.

It's noon this day.

In a secret room, Hardang Muren summoned his direct generals who were absolutely loyal to him and criticized the Barbarian King.

"A friend who was originally serving in the palace sent a secret report. The Barbarian King is slowly collecting rare treasures, gold, silver and soft goods. He is obviously preparing to escape."

Hadang Muren stared at the generals with bright eyes.

The barbarian king threatened his family and asked him to be used as cannon fodder to join the army and escape on his own. How could he sit still and wait for death?

After thinking hard all night last night, he already had a plan in his mind.

The family members of these direct generals were also detained in the palace by the Barbarian King. They already had resentments in their hearts, but when they heard the news, they became even more furious and shouted harshly.

"This is simply unreasonable! How can such a mediocre person look like a king?"

"With the threat of our generals and their families, how can there be such narrow-minded people in the past and present? It is even more unbearable now. On the surface, they sound high-sounding, but in fact they are preparing to run away!"

"What qualifications does this barbarian king have for us to fight for?"

"..."

Hadang Muren was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. Whatever they said at this time, as long as it was spread out, it would be a serious crime to destroy the nine tribes, which showed how much the Barbarian King had lost people's hearts.

After everyone vented their anger for a while, Hadang Muren said again: "I don't want to be the barbarian king's cannon fodder. Now that the situation has come to an end, I have to come up with an idea to protect the whole family. Do you have any good ideas?"

For a while, the scene fell into silence.

But it was quickly broken. A commander with a beard on his face suddenly stood up, looked around at everyone and said loudly: "Anyway, I will not be cannon fodder for him. I only believe in waiting with you through life and death." Lord General!"

Having said this, the bearded commander paused and raised his hand to Hardang Muren.

"General, I only know how to fight and kill people. I can't think of such mental things. I will just follow you and do what you say. I will kill whoever you tell me to kill!"

After he took the initiative, other generals also expressed their opinions.

"That's right. General, tell me what to do. I'll listen to you!"

"General, I know you have noticed it, just tell me!"

"..."

This is relatively subtle, and some people simply say treasonous things without any scruples.

"Otherwise they enter the palace, snatch the family members back, and then leave the city and surrender!"

"The total number of our family members is too large, and the goal of entering the palace to rob people is too big. In my opinion, it is better to kill the Barbarian King without stopping. If the palace is in chaos, I can save my family members!"

"Don't kill the Barbarian King! We should capture the Barbarian King and hand him over to Li Changfeng. In this way, we can be considered meritorious, and only when we surrender to Li Changfeng in the future will we receive preferential treatment!"

"Yes, you can't kill the barbarian king. Capture him and then we support the general to become king, so that we can all live a good life!" "Yes, the general to become king is what everyone expects!"

"..."

Seeing that the topic was so biased, Hadang Muren couldn't sit still and scolded sternly: "Shut up!"

The generals were shocked and quickly shut up.

He stared at everyone coldly and said angrily: "I just want to save my family members so that my family's bloodline and the bloodline inheritance of all brothers will not be cut off. I have never had any intention of replacing the Barbarian King. This matter is over. Bring it up again!”

In fact, he also wanted to be king and make a fortune in everything, but he didn't dare.

As long as the Barbarians are not completely exterminated for a day, they will inevitably be controlled by the Man Temple. The Barbarian King must be recognized by the Man Temple to be able to sit firmly. And he plans to capture the Barbarian King and offer it to Li Changfeng. It would be good if the Man Temple does not liquidate him. , how could it be possible to support him?
Even if it is support, it must be that he has shown enough use value.

Moreover, at this time when he might lose his head, he must not show greed for the throne in order to gain the sincere support of his generals.

Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the generals looked at him with even more respect.

"I admire the general's righteousness!"

"In that case, let's discuss how to take down the Barbarian King!"

"Just lead the troops into the palace. Our soldiers all crawled out of the dead. Those so-called elites of the Barbarian King who have never seen much blood are simply a joke!"

"Don't lead troops to rush in, you need to plan carefully!"

"..."

The generals had just begun their discussion when a sudden explosion alarmed the entire royal capital. Hardang Muren stood up suddenly and said in surprise: "Did Li Changfeng break his promise and attack in advance?!"

With a cry of surprise, Hadang Muren hurriedly walked out of the secret room and ran quickly towards the military camp, shouting from a distance: "What happened? Is the Daqian army attacking?!"

Immediately, a soldier reported: "General, Daqian's army did not attack. They just lit an explosive outside the city. However, Daqian's air force has already taken off. I don't know what it wants to do!"

Hadang Muren quickly raised his head to look at the sky, and saw a mass of black hot air balloons slowly floating over the royal capital in the distance. A little cold sweat broke out on his forehead, for fear that the Daqian Air Force would launch an attack.

Regarding the Air Force, he had no choice but to stare nervously.

Soon the hot air balloon flew over their heads, and the people inside began to throw things downward.

Hadang Muren's face changed drastically, and he shouted: "Spread out! Spread out! Pay attention to the impact point of the Daqian Air Force bomb, and be sure to avoid it!"

The troops heard the sound and moved into chaos, turning into a pot of porridge.

But soon a soldier discovered something strange and said in surprise: "It's not a bomb, it seems... it's paper?!"

"Paper?"

Hardang Muren, who was looking for a place to hide, stopped and looked up at the sky. He saw papers falling from the sky, and one of them fell at his feet.

He bent to pick it up and examine it.

A message to the barbarian people:

[-]. The barbarian king lost his virtue and took the initiative to start a war regardless of the life and death of his soldiers and people. Why should he be a king?
Second, the barbarian king was unjust and used civil and military officials and their families to threaten him. Is this the way to be a king?
Third, the barbarian king broke his promise. He obviously wanted to fight to the death with me, Daqian, but secretly packed up the rare treasures, gold, silver, and soft goods and prepared to abandon the city. Is this what a gentleman would do?
I did not want to attack because I did not want to cause loss of life and accidentally kill innocent people. If the barbarian king does not surrender, when the time comes, our army will bombard the capital and burn everything to the ground. I would like to inform the soldiers and civilians of the capital!
If you want to save your lives, you can urge the barbarian king to rein in his horse and leave the city to surrender.
