"Your Majesty! Please think again..."

Zheng Zheng suddenly realized that he quickly knelt down, and that Rosen circled around deliberately asking him to hand over the final decision to the emperor, and he was cheated.

"Well justice, let's follow His Majesty's will, and Lord Rosen can be trusted, even if there are any similarities and differences in political ideas, we just need to be more tolerant."

Seeing that his students were being teased from the beginning to the end, Joey couldn't bear to let him be a pawn to test the holy will. In fact, he had no objection to Rosen's appointment as a minister, but was worried that the emperor would be manipulated again.

"Okay... then the new minister, what is your ruling policy based on the current situation of the empire? The southern rebels occupy a large area of ​​the country, should they recruit or fight? Recruit or defeat the rebels, how should those local officials who surrendered be dealt with? ?The believers of Anning Road in the east are all over the empire, should they be appeased or cut off from the source? Should the Western coalition forces negotiate a peace or continue to fight endlessly? If they negotiate a peace, how should they negotiate? Will they back down or should we back down?"

Slightly calm down the overly excited emotions, knowing that the emperor's justice can't be defeated, and start to attack from the perspective of the ruler, hoping to test the opponent through the difficulties the empire is currently facing. The imperial minister couldn't even point out the most basic direction, and he desperately wanted to persuade His Majesty to withdraw his appointment.

"To be or not to be is nothing more than a question of whether to be this way or that way. Is it to repair the ship of the empire, compromise what should be compromised, invisible what should be invisible, continue to linger, or long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, Use civil strife to exterminate these gangrene."

"So what is Lord Rosen's suggestion?"

Hearing this, Joey narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his beard and asked.

"Hehe... My suggestion is to smash the whole broken ship and rebuild it, and continue the empire for a thousand years."

Chapter 253 Chapter.248 Make the Empire Great Again!

"I am here today to replace the ineffective and corrupt political establishment headed by Ernest and form a new government that truly represents the people of the Empire."

Teigu's "Earth Cry, Heavy Pressure" spread the sound to the entire imperial capital. This was Lawson's inaugural speech to take over the position of minister. The place was set up in the imperial capital plaza that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. At this time, the place was already crowded Crowds of people, thousands of people empty alleys.

"Perhaps what happened in the past ten years has made you lose your trust in the empire, and some people even have unrealistic ideas about the rebels in the south, but they are not as kind as they advertise."

Standing on the podium, Rosen looked down at the people with their heads up and their eyes filled with uneasiness. He crumpled up the manuscript that Joey had written for him and threw it away. An empty bureaucratic tone, but a real hope that can be seen.

"The rebels who are now attacking Sishuiguan are the culprits that will cause the empire to fall apart in the future. They united with the western countries, helped them trample and plunder our land and people, and drained the blood of the empire."

"They set off a religious rebellion, prevented the food from the east from being traded to all parts of the empire, and made the people suffer from hunger and cold, but they took it for themselves at a very low price, and even provided the food we worked so hard to grow to other races Support them in extending their front to invade the Empire."

"The rebels looted the treasury and plundered the people's property, and they pretended to accept the support of the people, but the fact is that everyone was shrouded in their white terror. They set up killer organizations to eliminate dissidents.

If you open the door with your family's life, you dare not refuse, it's definitely not as bloodless as in the propaganda. "

"This is a life-and-death struggle for our nation, and now all stand at the crossroads to decide whether we will be the people of a proud thousand-year-old empire, or be reduced to slaves in the colonies of the Western powers, under the scourge of rebels like overseers. Living without dignity, lingering."

Rosen's calm words caused ripples in the crowd after all. People discussed in low voices. They didn't have much information about the front lines, so they couldn't judge whether it was true or not. However, resisting foreign enemies However, food supply and protection of private property are matters that are related to everyone's interests.

"After today, the rebels will do everything they can to slander me, my colleagues, and the people I love, and make me the only dictator, executioner, and source of all disasters in history, and become the target of their so-called uprising and so-called revolution. All this the rebels are doing is not for you, but for themselves."

"They'll lie, keep lying, and then use even more despicable means next time. They can do anything if necessary, but even so, I will stand in the way of your arrows. It is my honor."

"The empire is yours and ours, but in the final analysis it is yours. The empire has reached the darkest moment before the dawn, and the only ones who are capable enough to save our country are ourselves."

"I didn't need to do this. Believe me, I can embezzle and bribe the people like the former minister, and then after the collapse of the empire, I will live in Western countries with money that I can't spend in more than a dozen lifetimes. Terrible attacks, overt or covert, slanders full of viciousness and lies."

"I stand here today because this country has given me so much, and I feel very strongly that it is time for me to give back to the country I love, for the sake of its people and for justice. I will serve You protect this country, and we... will make the Empire great again."

The second half of Rosen's speech was extremely provocative. When he finished his last word, the entire Empire Square and even the entire Imperial City erupted in applause like a tsunami. If anyone other than him said these words Neither can win the trust of the people.

Only the iron-handed suppression of the chaotic law and order of the empire for more than ten years, the eradication of the wild hounds, the execution of Minister Ernest and the corrupt forces that caused the empire's misfortune, and the killing of Yamata no Orochi can do it. He uses his every move It proves what it means to do what it says, and the so-called making the empire great again is definitely not empty talk.

"It's a great speech... woooo... It's a great speech, the vice-captain."

The straightforward Will held Rosen's hands almost with tears in his eyes after the speech. He almost smashed his palms just now.

"Rawson is now a minister, you have to call him Mr. Rosen."

Hei Tong squinted and couldn't help complaining, but even so, she just applauded along with it, after all, she was the one who could turn against her compatriot sister for the sake of the empire.

"There's no need to be so famous, just use the usual address, anyway, I won't be there for long."

Rosen waved casually and said that this material world is very valuable for development. Whether it is technology or dangerous materials, after he finishes solving Fran and Night Raid, he will hand over the follow-up to Shabu's "professional team" ruling.

He originally thought that Shab Nicholas's business would be selling sex, but later he learned that the other party started by developing the material world and upgrading its original civilization level. Through trading materials and technologies from different worlds and manufacturing high-end products, he finally obtained a huge sum in the Gods Forum the original quality.

However, most of the God's Chosen on the other side are not good at fighting. They are either scientific research talents like Fran, or various politicians and businessmen. They rely on the high charm value brought by the divine grace to thrive in the material world. Water rises, but the premise is that there is no personal threat, and an assassination organization like Night Raid will definitely not work.

"Vice-captain, urgent military situation."

Just when the three of them were chatting relaxedly and preparing to go to the palace to visit the minister's mansion, Lan, who looked nervous, suddenly walked up to him quickly.

"Take a breath, what happened?"

"A large number of refugees from the north of the empire went south, and now they have almost reached Slam at the foot of the city wall. According to those refugees, they were all driven down by the alien race in the north."

"How is it possible? Didn't all the alien races in the north be killed by the captain?"

Will couldn't help asking in confusion when he heard the words, the fact that General Esdess killed 40 aliens was known throughout the empire, how could someone say such outrageous information?

"That's right, so the other party said another thing about the deceased, Su Sheng."

Lan's face was very ugly, because when he received this news, a strange infectious disease that had never been seen before broke out in Slam, a slum living near the imperial capital. He had already quarantined the affected people urgently, and immediately Came over to report the situation.

Chapter 254 Chapter.249 The Coming Corpse Tide

"Kazi——kazi—"

A gray-black-skinned zombie is gnawing on the little boy caught by him with blood overflowing from its mouth. Its heart is like a furnace that is constantly pumping flames into its veins, and it looks particularly special in the gradually darkening night. conspicuous.

And the abnormal noise from the temporary tent also caused the girl who was in charge of distributing clean water in the camp outside.

Pay attention, so she opened the curtain subconsciously and wanted to ask the father and son who fled from the north if they needed help. It is said that they were forced to leave their hometown because of the resurrected northern demons. The rumors are true or false.

"Sister...help...help..."

Seeing that someone finally noticed this side, the little boy who was still breathing struggled to reach out for help. He didn't know why his father turned into a monster, just like his mother whose head was blown off. He only remembered the journey along the way. Many, many people died, and now it was finally my turn.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Devil! It's a devil!!!"

The girl let out a hysterical scream when she saw the horrific scene in front of her, and fled out of the camp in fright, but Kabane, who was attracted by the smell of the living, obviously did not intend to let her go. Immediately roaring and stretching out her arms, she flew over and pressed her to the ground, ignoring her cries and struggles and began to bite crazily.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

"Why run? Kill it!"

"Stop crowding! Don't crowd! Whose child got separated!?"

The nightmare-like roar and the iconic burning heart instantly detonated the extreme panic in the refugee camp. Some people fled desperately, and some tried to kill the zombies with weapons. The scene became extremely chaotic for a while. The temporary tents that had been put up with great difficulty were all pushed down to the ground, and the already dense crowd began to trample on people, and such scenes broke out in many places in Slam.

boom--

The bullet pierced through Kabane's steel heart, and a beam of dazzling electric light splashed out. The zombies that had lost their cores immediately stopped attacking humans and collapsed to the ground. At this moment, after hearing Lan's report, Rosen and the others also hurried over. It was the black Doberman in his hand that shot just now.

"Vice Captain...these are..."

Will looked at the distorted corpse on the ground in disbelief. He thought it was absurd when he heard Lan's narration, but when he actually saw it, he felt an unreasonable panic in his heart.

"Kabane, a monster whose heart is wrapped in a steel film."

Rosen's tone also became a little dignified. This is definitely a man-made disaster. Just when he first entered the material world, the administrator specially reminded God's Chosen to carry foreign objects in violation of the regulations. In fact, things like Kabane factor It is impossible to jump in, but a genius scientist like Banmu Fulan will always find a way to take advantage of the loopholes.

"Do you know each other?"

"I've heard it from my companions, and it's the first time I've seen it. You can understand it as some kind of virus that can parasitize and transform the human body. It reproduces extremely fast and can be transmitted through blood and saliva."

Facing Will's question and the black pupils who also cast doubtful eyes, Rosen recalled a little and explained that Karenina's third mission was to enter the material world that exists in Kabane. The achievement of "Shattered Horizon" is obtained by killing a hundred zombies with one hammer.

However, the follow-up task of developing the material world was left to Shabu’s professional team to complete. She and Naiyazi had a clear division of labor. Their divine grace was suitable for land reclamation and business operation. However, Kabane’s original world technology was low. And there are no special products, the only thing that can be studied is the Kabane factor, which was secretly turned into a biochemical weapon by Banmu Fulan.

"Contagion through blood and saliva...isn't that!?"

Will looked down at the girl who was bitten to death in some panic. The girl's body had already mutated at this time, and a red light flowing from the heart covered half of the body like a meridian. Then he opened his eyes suddenly and screamed. Pounce on the human closest to you.

boom--

"The weakness is the head and heart. It takes more than 100 seconds from infection to becoming a Kabane, but it may also be that the corpse mutates faster. If a living person is infected, it is said that there will be a maximum incubation period of three days."

Rosen mercilessly shot the girl in the head. With the sound of the gunshot, the zombie's fragile brain was splashed on the ground like a juicy watermelon. He had asked Lan to shut down the imperial capital in advance The city gate, and notified the Guards to come over to take over Slam's law and order. Even if Kabane was extremely powerful, he couldn't tear through the defense of the group of heavily armed soldiers who were armed to the teeth.

"The incubation period of three days... Is there no possibility of treatment?"

What Will could almost foresee was that this disaster might cause tens of millions of human deaths, so even though he knew it was unrealistic, he still asked with a trembling voice.

"No, the infection is dead, it's just that I don't know when it will break out."

Rosen shook his head. If he had to find a scientist who could develop a drug that inhibits Kabane factor, the only person would be Zemu Fulan himself, but this guy released the foreign matter. How could he take it back by himself, and the other party made it? He did not dare to use the medicine that came out.

"Then it's better to mutate directly. The three-day incubation period may speed up the spread of the virus."

Heitong, who was nibbling on a small biscuit, couldn't help complaining that Kabane who appeared in the camp was probably the one who was scratched by the zombies and concealed it, but this is what most people would do. After all, survival It is human nature to be lucky and to be lucky.

"That's right, so I'm afraid there will be a steady stream of refugees fleeing south in the future, until millions of Kabane soldiers come to the city, and there should be no living people in the north of the empire."

Rosen looked at the little girl who had experienced the initial chaos.

The refugees who carefully reorganized the camp, the mere zombies are not a threat to Karenina and him who are the chosen ones, but Zemu Fulan's goal has never been to deal with them, but to increase the maliciousness The collapse value of the material plane.

When the collapse value exceeds 60%, the administrator's pest removal mechanism will be triggered. At that time, a large number of god-chosen will be assigned to the world to force the removal of foreign objects, and Zemu Fulan can take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters to escape the hunt. There is a high probability that Orochimaru will enter the material world again, and he still has seven lives after obtaining Voldemort's black magic to make Horcruxes.

If Rosen still uses the passive skill Devour Hope to hold him back, then it may turn into an endless battle between the Chosen Ones.Of course, none of the above may be true if he can deal with Banmu Fulan before the collapse value reaches 60%, or block or even wipe out the Kabane army so that it cannot continue to spread south.

Chapter 255 Chapter.250 It Doesn't Matter, I Will Shot

"Minister, all the gates of the imperial capital have been closed, leaving only passages for supply and exit. The refugee camps outside the city have also been divided into areas, and the leaders of the refugees are entrusted to manage them. At the same time, soldiers from the guards are arranged to patrol respond to emergencies."

Lan, who had been busy all night, didn't even have time to take a nap, and hurried into the palace to report to Rosen in front of several important ministers. In just one night, a large number of refugee conflicts had occurred in Slam, Robbery and even murder and rape were serious cases, and Kabane didn't stop. There were hidden carrier mutations one after another, and attacks on refugees and stampedes caused hundreds of casualties.

"Good job, I have sent flying scouts to track the movement of the corpse tide at all times, and the refugees outside the city must be transferred before they hit the imperial capital."

Rosen nodded to confirm the other party's work, then looked at Joey and the others and told them what they needed to do next. The empire also had captive flying dangerous Teigu envoys, who were usually responsible for defending the sky above the palace, but this time he borrowed Most of the time I went to explore the north.

"But where else can people be transferred now? Although the imperial capital is a big city that can accommodate millions of people, it is already overcrowded due to various reasons, not to mention that the number of refugees may eventually reach millions. .”

The minister of affairs, Zheng Zheng, was a little bit embarrassed when he heard that this was true. This year’s empire was already full of disasters, yet such natural disasters and man-made disasters still occurred. If he was given such an impossible task, he would have to find a Bai Ling hanged herself on the beam.

"Food is also a big problem. Now the fertile fields in the south and east are out of the control of the empire, and the autumn harvest has not been handed over. The grain production in the Central Plains alone can't last long. I'm afraid the rebels will It is now waiting for us to give in and surrender to them."

Looking at the student with an embarrassing face, Joey also stroked his beard and mentioned other difficulties that need to be paid attention to in implementing this matter. The current empire is surrounded by four breads and no one can please it. Now it has to accept refugees from the north. It's just worse.

"And if we choose to ignore the life and death of the refugees, the rebel army will start to launch a propaganda machine. After all, many soldiers are from the northern part of the empire. Faced with this situation, it is very possible to initiate a mutiny and surrender to them."

Rosen jokingly added that the northern border is freezing cold at this time, and he does not believe that a few people from Banmu Fulan can dig through [-] cubic meters of frozen soil to unseal the corpses of those alien races in the north. Infected into Kabane, there must be people from the Revolutionary Army intervening here, but then again...he remembered that his hometown of Tazmi, where he had been tax-free before, seemed to be a small village on the northeast border?

"Then what should we do? Isn't this a dead end?"

Justice, who has always been on a hot tempered temper, couldn't bear the feeling of powerlessness that he had nowhere to exert himself. He could only stare at Rosen to see what solution his new minister had.

"Heh... it's still far away. First of all, refugees are definitely not allowed to enter the imperial capital. They can only be allowed to continue going south."

"Temporarily resettled in the Central Plains?"

Joey couldn't think of any good ideas either. It seemed that there wasn't much they could do except increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

"No, directly use the Grand Canal to send it below Sishuiguan, where the rebels' base camp is."

"How is this possible!?"

Rosen suddenly put forward an astonishing suggestion, not only the justice that responded fiercely, but even the mature and prudent Joey almost plucked off his beard, but Lan, who was listening, had already expressed his strange thoughts about his vice-captain. Wonderful thinking has become a habit.

"Why not? Anyway, isn't the rebel army under the banner of overthrowing the empire and everyone is equal? ​​Now it's time for them to prove themselves."

"But...but isn't this an enemy? What if they recruit troops from refugees to supplement the army?"

"So we have to screen first. Soldiers' families, young and strong labor force, married and childbearing women, and children all stay. These are estimated to account for less than one-third. The rest of the refugees over the age of 40, the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled all go to them. The rebels don’t dare to reject them, why would they like to pull up a majestic banner.”

Rosen directly arranged for the Revolutionary Army to be clear. Anyway, the empire's reputation is now notorious, so a little bit of personnel will be praised. previous actions.

but

The revolutionary army is different. They have always talked about lofty ideals, liberation of the people, equality for all, and extremely high moral standards, so even if they do something wrong, they will be observed with a magnifying glass and even criticized.

And [-]% of their soldiers are from the former imperial army. They gave up their families with enthusiasm and devoted themselves to the cause of overthrowing the decaying empire. Mutiny, if Rosen pushes the flames further and is willing to accept the return of the defecting soldiers or send them home without being held accountable, the Revolutionary Army will be gone on the spot.

"This is indeed a solution to the problem, but the food shortage still exists, and once refugees gather, friction and violence are prone to occur."

Joey was not so pedantic. Instead, he very much agreed with Rosen's unconstrained ideas. The rebels should really give them a hard time, lest they always suppress and discredit the empire in terms of propaganda.

"I have an agent at the top of Anning Dao. I ask them directly for food. The teaching of Anning Dao is to help each other. In this case, it is impossible to stand by and watch. A religious organization that does not even abide by its own teachings will soon fall apart. Besides, their leader still owes me a favor."

"As for the problem that the refugees are idle and have nothing to do to make trouble, it is nothing more than relief with work. The city wall demolished by Yamata no Orochi last time has not been repaired yet. In order to prevent Kabane, who slipped through the net, from going to harm other places, we We plan to build satellite cities around the imperial capital to stop the tide of corpses, and at the same time, we can accommodate these refugees. The workload is guaranteed to be full, and they will fall asleep during the break, so that they will not be in the mood to make trouble."

When Rosen was about to pull a giant banner on the construction site, it read:
