Don’t panic if you get scammed, give him a Desert Eagle instead.

Several leaders were slightly surprised after hearing this. This was the first time that the head of the British Empire had spoken to them in this way.

"Let's start with Gaul. We were once close allies and fought side by side in two world wars," he said slowly.

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Someone urged.

"Atlantis is turning a blind eye to us now, but our industrial strength is not inferior, and our universities and core technologies are also quite strong. The only difference is that they hold the world economic hegemony," he analyzed.

"So what?" The leader of Gaul shook his head helplessly.

"We are currently short of supplies. Although Europa can be self-sufficient, our long-term dependence on Atlantis has not changed," he continued.

"The key lies in the Great Shang Kingdom. We should unite and establish good trade relations with it and stop following the pace of Atlantis, otherwise we will be doomed." He put forward his own views.

After hearing this, everyone fell silent. In fact, they all knew in their hearts that this might be the best option at the moment.

However, they are worried that although the Great Shang Kingdom's economy is currently ranked second in the world, once it becomes the world's largest, the consequences will be unpredictable.

"The Great Shang Kingdom is an ancient civilization. It has always been ahead of us in history. At that time, the world was peaceful, everyone was self-sufficient and willing to trade, and the results were quite good." He tried to evoke the glory of the past.

"But in this case, aren't we supporting their construction? By then they will become increasingly powerful, and Europe may return to the Middle Ages." The head of the Big Cat Country expressed his concerns.

"We are now the world's fourth largest economy, and our industrial manufacturing is the world leader, but their ability to learn is too strong. Take tunnel boring machines as an example. We once monopolized the world, but now they can get them at a low price, and their technology even surpasses ours," he lamented.

Everyone looked at each other, wondering what strength the Great Shang Kingdom had to compete with them.

"It's not that we don't want to help, but this matter needs to be handled in our way, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. Please understand our position," they said helplessly.

Ultimately, the meeting ended in a sour mood, and it was an overwhelming experience for everyone.

"So how should we respond now? This is the situation in Europe." The leader seemed a little unhappy.

"Europe can only become a strong economy if it is united, but as you can see, our alliance is not stable. We chose to withdraw because we felt that there was little point in staying here." He missed the former glory of the empire.

"Thinking back to the time after the technological revolution, our two countries were the first to rise, and we were at the forefront. No one dared to compete with us. Even the Great Shang Kingdom at that time was defeated by us." He recalled that glorious history.

However, it was unexpected that the Shang Kingdom would rise again after a hundred years.

"I hope everyone can seriously consider this matter. It is crucial to our century-long plan. If we continue to rely on Atlantis, once they encounter problems, we will suffer as well," he said earnestly.

The heads of state nodded one after another, but the meeting did not reach any results and ended in a bad mood.

Each country has its own plans, and they do not want to have a so-called "big brother" to form cliques and factions, otherwise if something goes wrong, the consequences will be unpredictable.

The new leader of Gaul has always advocated establishing friendly relations with the Shang Kingdom, and both sides feel quite good about it.

After returning home, he began to prepare for the next round of actions.

"I think we should hurry up and visit the Shang Kingdom, at least to understand their thoughts," he suggested.

Local think tanks also seem somewhat anxious. This may be the first country ready to turn its attention to the Great Shang Kingdom.

"When Atlantis imposed a blockade on them, we were one of the few countries that established diplomatic relations with them. We are free, so why should we be manipulated by others? Don't you think this is the truth?" At the high-level meeting, leader Dai Qiongsi finally spoke his mind.

"Do you mean that we need to have in-depth cooperation with the Great Shang Kingdom?" someone asked.

"Why not? Don't you find it strange? We now have gaps in resources and energy. If we continue to follow Atlantis' sanctions or do other things, the consequences will be unimaginable. Besides, we are doing this tentatively. If Atlantis imposes sanctions on us, maybe we can win the fight," he explained.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this; it was truly an astonishing turn of events.

"We will all listen to you. As long as this matter is reasonable and legal, there will be no problem. Atlantis is facing many domestic conflicts now, which is really a headache." They expressed their support.

However, while they were discussing, a major incident occurred in Atlantis.

A group of thugs rushed into a primary school, and many primary school students were injured. This is not an isolated incident. Similar things have happened in many places and are even getting worse.

The whole world was shocked.

"How is this possible? Is this never going to end?" Bais looked at his security assistant with helplessness on his face.

"Children are the future of our country. If we can't even guarantee their safety, how can we face everyone?" He was deeply worried.

In desperation, Bais chose to lower the flag again.

"In fact, I think we should do as the Great Shang Kingdom did and directly abolish the law on personal gun ownership, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous," he suggested.

"Absolutely impossible. We still have the Gun Association. Besides, many bosses will come to us if they hear about this." The think tank expressed its opposition.

"This doesn't work, and that doesn't work. What should I do?" Bais began to feel helpless.

However, the incident escalated again. These unscrupulous bandits not only attacked primary schools, but also broke into secondary schools and even began to kidnap students. Such cases are not uncommon.

Local parents are extremely anxious. They try their best to solve the problem through the security bureau, but there are not enough security officers because there are too many cases.

The incident continued to ferment and even began to cause dissatisfaction among the people.

At this time, the annual meeting of the Gun Association actually began. Putt once again performed a confusing dance at the meeting.

Obviously, the situation right now is incredible.

After seeing the changes in the national situation, Bais had no choice but to make another national televised speech.

"We strongly condemn this behavior of playing with children's lives. If you have any demands, please make them directly to the government," he appealed.

However, the public did not buy into the TV speeches. The extremely inefficient case handling model and the cowardly security guards were all fresh in the parents' minds.

It is said that some parents even tried to break through the security guards' cordon to save their children. However, what they saw were a group of injured children, terrified eyes, and bodies being carried out one after another.

Parents began to collapse, and they immediately formed a parent group, with parents from all over the country gathering together to launch the largest march ever.

They went directly to the small white building where Bais was and asked him to come out and give an explanation. Bais felt helpless and he didn't know how to deal with this situation.

"Leader, if we remain silent at this moment, the final result is self-evident. Those people in Congress will definitely make a big fuss about it."

Yajet was helpless at the moment. It was an indisputable fact that the national police system was generally inefficient.

Jiang Chuan stayed out of the incident and watched from the sidelines, secretly rejoicing that Dashang Country has now become the safest country in the world, which made him feel relieved. However, unexpectedly, just as the parents were marching and demonstrating, the gangsters launched another shooting incident.

The thugs, armed with submachine guns, rushed directly towards the procession of parents.

In desperation, the local army finally took action and temporarily suppressed the arrogance of the rioters.

"Leader, there are casualties already, why aren't we taking action?"

Ajet came to report again.

Faced with the situation out of control, Bais was so anxious that he unexpectedly fainted on the ground.

"lead!"

Everyone was horrified and quickly called a doctor.

"Hurry to the hospital for emergency treatment, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

The ambulance quickly drove into the Little White Building, followed closely by the leadership guards, and headed to the hospital in a mighty procession.

When the marching crowd saw this scene, they suddenly understood what was going on.

"Everyone follow me to the hospital and wait. The leader will definitely wake up and give us a clear answer."

At this time, the deputy leader stepped forward.

"Dear parents, we are ready to send troops to guard the gates of all primary schools as soon as possible and equip all teachers with guns free of charge."

However, parents are not buying it.

"Then do we parents have to be there all the time? Doesn't the country have laws? Minors are not allowed to have guns. How can we defend ourselves in such situations?"

One parent directly questioned the leader, and everyone nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, there are troops stationed all over the country, and we will try to get everyone to appear in small groups everywhere. No matter how rampant these thugs are, they are no match for our well-trained soldiers and well-prepared teachers."

The parents had no choice but to return and hurry up to prepare two guns for each family.

Then, a shocking phenomenon emerged: parents spontaneously formed a school guard and took turns on duty every day.

From now on, students will be picked up and dropped off by their parents.

However, the rioters did not give up. Since it was difficult to attack the school, they turned to the university, where there were more people and more forces.

And this time, the target is actually Ivy League schools.

There were frequent shootings at universities in Atlantis, and Jiang Chuan couldn't help but sneer.

"I wonder what else Atlantis can do!"

If it were in the past, they might still be worried, but now such incidents are happening frequently across the country, which is really a headache.

At this time, people who were waiting for news in the European region were in an awkward situation. Their leader was in the hospital, and they didn't know whether to retreat or continue waiting.

The main reason is that their life supplies are decreasing day by day. If this continues, the entire fleet may be forced to leave due to lack of food.

In contrast, Pros has abundant supplies and a sparse population despite its economic downturn.

They announced the abolition of the age limit for conscription and seemed ready to do something big.

This matter immediately affected the whole of Europe. They did not expect that the first country to fall into chaos would be Atlantis.

The Europa League quickly assembled and prepared to hold a meeting.

"I think everyone is aware of the severity of the current situation. If things continue like this, the consequences will be disastrous."

As the rotating country, Gallic country has a clear position.

"I think we should stop following Atlantis. They can't even control the domestic situation. If they collapse, Europe will be the first to suffer."

In the past, this proposal would have been met with widespread opposition, but this time no country in Europe came out to oppose it.

"I'm just worried that if we do this, won't we be enemies with Atlantis? If they learn that we have changed our ways, they will definitely tighten their control over us."

Many people in the alliance expressed concern, but more people were worried about retaliation from Atlantis.

"Are you willing to continue to be controlled by them and let the economy collapse? Prices are soaring, inflation is serious, and material shortages have reached a historical peak."

The President of Gallic Country is deeply worried. Even the economic crisis 90 years ago was not as severe as it is today.

The economic system led by Atlantis has been operating for half a century, but now emerging countries are constantly challenging its position.

In the 1980s, Japan emerged as a rising star, but ultimately failed due to its economic dependence on imports.

Today is the rise of the Great Shang Kingdom. The difference is that the Great Shang Kingdom has a strict industrial system, and any external influence can hardly shake its foundation.

They knew very well that if the Shang Kingdom chose to close its doors to the outside world at a critical moment, it would have a serious impact on the global economy.

"The Great Commercial Country is the second largest market in the world, but it is second to none in terms of purchasing power. Take the retail industry for example. They have a large population and amazing spending power. Even India cannot compare with them."

Today, not only Europe, but the entire Asia region is also changing.

Especially with the Argentine Empire, after signing the tripartite agreement with them, Moss immediately contacted the Great Shang Empire and prepared for a state visit.

Moreover, Moss specially invited Jiang Chuan to participate. When this news came out, Bais was very annoyed.

"What is the Asan Kingdom doing? On the one hand, they promised us to become Da Shang, but on the other hand, they are running to Da Shang. If you want to strike a balance, then there is no need to play with them anymore, and the arms they promised us before will not be given to us anymore."

However, before Bais fully went public with the story, Moss held a press conference.

"It has been a month since we signed the agreement with Atlantis. Even in terms of sea travel, we should have seen some transport routes. But until now, we have not seen a single fighter jet or a shipment of cargo. Therefore, we believe that Atlantis is deliberately delaying us in order to make us give up the idea completely."

Moss's words caused an uproar around the world. The reputation of Atlantis has fallen to the lowest point in the world. (End of this chapter)
