Chapter 637 (1/2)
The bramble Corps soon realized that something was wrong. They stopped attacking on both sides. The time of launching the attack was almost the same. It must be intentional. The two empires definitely wanted to drive them out of the mainland at one time.
Just when they were worried about this, an insect disaster suddenly broke out in the star forest from the East. A insect beast with strength of nearly ten thousand years rushed out of the jungle and turned into an insect disaster Legion that devoured everything.
Where they pass, there is no grass. Even the rock buildings on the raised ground can be turned into gravel by them.
”Has the soul beast Empire also shot?” Montoya, the head of the bramble army, frowned and mused. The whole continent gathered forces to attack them. Undoubtedly, the situation was very bad.
”Order to retreat!” Montoya looked at the battle damage report on the front line and spoke to the herald.
”My lord... This land is our root!” The adjutant quickly stopped.
”This land is not our root for a long time. We think we are the orthodox successors of tulips and occupy the land of tulips, but what have we done.
Eighteen years ago, I led the bramble Corps back to Douluo in order to get back what belongs to us. At that time, everyone was bitter ha ha. In order to completely enter the industrial age, I was willing to be a screw.
At that time, I can proudly claim that we are the orthodox tulip, we are the light of civilization, and even if we recover the territory of tulip, we will become the leader of civilization.
But what about reality? For 18 years, I'm almost 70 years old. I'm not the pioneer who followed the sage around the world. Time also makes me see our true face.
Go to the light of his civilization! We are just a civilized dog like moths! When millions of young people came across the sea, how many people set foot on the land of their hometown alive.
Over the years, tens of thousands of warm-blooded teenagers have crossed the ocean and scattered their blood on this land every year. The Empire told them that they came here to protect their country and shed their blood for the future of the Empire. But what is the truth?
We are just guarding a bridgehead for the rich people in China, so that the industrial raw materials of the empire can invade the continent unimpeded, and then sweep countless wealth back to the mainland.
If these wealth is used to build the country, I will recognize that it doesn't matter if you stick to it here until the end, but what is the truth?
The truth is that the gap between the rich and the poor in China has widened. The chaebols rule the whole empire and use the wealth we extract from our ancestral lands to squeeze the bottom and consolidate their rule.
Do you know what we received the most before sailing around the world with the sage? ”
The adjutant was distracted by this. He also felt that the domestic situation was not quite right. Subconsciously, he asked, ”what?”
”Sage, tell us that the Tao moves at any time. Anyone who wants to be a system of all ages is an enemy. Until a few years ago, I still firmly believed in the teachings of the sage, but when I was old, I began to doubt this. It's right that the Tao moves at any time, but in this world full of extraordinary power, everything seems to be developing towards a system of all ages.
Are we changing the times, or are we the rocks that hinder the river in the long river of history? I don't know, so I want to personally witness before I die whether the people still have a trace of resistance. ”
”But I'm afraid to withdraw the army and return to the Empire...” I'm afraid that Montoya will face more than the problem of dismissal. Although he has unparalleled prestige in the army, this will not affect the high-level ruling on him. The army can't live without supplies and the support of the industrial foundation. They just survive.
