C443 Liang Kun who had lost his mind (1/2)
”What did you say?” F * ck, you're looking to die today … ” Liang Kun practically bit off his teeth and spat out these words word by word. He had already forgotten the pain in his leg, he actually pulled Jin Changsen who was blocking the way and walked towards the water dog with large strides.
The command knife at his waist had already been pulled out by half. The furious general was prepared to slash this villain who sowed discord.
The rumors of Xiao Letian's death had already spread around the city, but with the civil and military officials denying it at the same time, the citizens knew that it was only a scheme by the enemies, a poison plan that messed up the morale of the troops.
The Prime Minister was still alive and Xiao Letian was still alive. The statesman who was leading the rise of the Ryukyu was currently fighting for greater benefits for everyone in Europa. This was a consensus that had been reached throughout the entire Ryukyu.
How could a little Ryukyu, an island nation that had been enlightened for more than a year, have the courage to wage war on an old brand of imperialist power, France? How could they have survived five days of French bombardment without succumbing?
Six years ago, even the strongest country in Asia, the Qing Dynasty, was no match for the French. Even the royal palace had been set on fire.
It was Xiao Letian who had single-handedly built the western style army, paid a lot of money to build a cannon emplacement that could threaten the existence of a French battleship, and even more, spent a lot of effort and resources on the construction of the Letian Firm. All of this was because the people of Ryukyu had the confidence to fight against the French Expeditionary Force.
And more importantly, under Xiao Letian's disdainful efforts, the Ryukyu had already become the vanguard of the East Asian public's morale. The citizens here already had the most rudimentary concepts of a nation and a nation.
It was because of this strong spiritual adhesion that when hundreds of thousands of people encountered the invasion of foreign enemies, they didn't choose to collapse or surrender. Instead, they could gather together and fight the enemy to the death.
Xiao Letian was the hero in the hearts of the citizens of Ryukyu, his hopes were there, if he died, so was his hope. No one in the Ryukyu dared to bring up the matter of Xiao Letian's death, even if they were afraid, they would bury it deep in their hearts.
Because they knew that if they believed this rumor, then it wouldn't even take half a day before there would be a huge disturbance within the Ryukyu.
How could Liang Kun allow the water dog to spout nonsense here? He slowly pulled out the command blade in his hand, and his ice-cold eyes swept over the water dog's body, as if he was looking for the best place to strike.
Jin Changsen was shoved to the side, and even if Lin Yuanmiao wanted to stop him, he was still knocked away. Even Shang Tai was pulling on his military uniform behind him, causing him to be unable to move.
”General, do not make a move, do not make a move, how can our Ryukyu have the reputation of killing envoys? ”You have to have peace of mind when it comes to big things. You can't let your anger rush to your head …”
Shang Tai, Jin Changsen and Lin Yuanmiao were persuading Liang Kun from behind. Even if they combined their powers, they were unable to pull the furious Liang Kun away, so it could be seen how infuriated the general was.
He kneeled on the ground, slanted his neck, and stared at Liang Kun. His arrogant eyes were staring straight at, as if saying If you dare, come and kill me.
The water dog was truly worthy of being from sea cuttlefish. Even though it looked to be laughing and cursing non-stop, it was still a ruthless person.
Cai Mao could not watch any longer, he blocked in front of Liang Kun, grabbed the blade in his right hand and used all his strength to put the command blade back in its sheath.
”General Liang, I understand your feelings, but we can't kill him …” There is no one in this world who would kill people just because they don't have a good temper! ”
After all, Liang Kun was injured, the strength in his body was not as strong as Cai Mao, and after struggling for two or three times, he still could not take out his command blade.
So, from the very beginning, you all had already believed in the rumors. From the very beginning, you all suspected that the Prime Minister was already dead, right?
”I finally understand your playfulness. Previously, you resisted simply because the French did not leave a way out for you. In order to survive, you had no choice but to put your lives on the line. Now that the negotiator has arrived, your hearts are on the line, right?”
”Let me guess one more time. You guys have other plans in mind, so if we were to fight a little harder, you guys can cheat more resources from the foreign banks. Otherwise, with your strength, do you think you can resist? ”Pah …”
”Not only that, you can forget about hiding anything from me while you're in the dirty water. You should use our new army's help to beat them up, but it's also to increase the stakes for future surrender negotiations. In the end, it's still you guys' own benefits!”
Liang Kun was so angry that he started laughing, ”Hahaha... Great, is this how you repay the Prime Minister's kindness? What is the final outcome for our new army? ”I'm afraid that I won't be able to escape the fate of being sold out …”
When Shang Tai, Cai Mao and the others heard this, their faces all turned green, the surrounding Forces nouvelles soldiers s all paled. No one expected that behind the illusion of harmony, there would actually be a crack like this hidden in the middle of the higher ups of Ryukyu.
