1891: Who is the other party? (1/2)
Everyone’s complexion remained relaxed. As they ate and drank, they actually weren’t the slightest bit surprised.
After all, they had lived this long. Other than the friendships between each other, this world didn’t really have anything that was worth them taking seriously.
“In other words, our 2.21 million soldiers must confront 2.5 billion troops!” Ye Hongchen’s voice was tranquil. “That means that each person must confront no fewer than 1200 people, give or take!”
Ye Hongchen faintly asked, “According to your judgement, brothers, what are our odds of success?”
The hall roared with the laughter of 25 people. “Our odds of success? A fart’s odds of success, it’s probably zero!”
“Hahahaha…”
Ye Hongchen laughed heartily. “Therefore…”
“Therefore this war must happen!” The tall and sturdy big guy said, “Actually, as everyone obviously knows, we don’t have an alternative to starting a war this time. We absolutely weren’t the ones to kill those people. However… the five skies turn a deaf ear to the actual facts, sticking to their own ideas. They’re maneuvering troops and having their soldiers pressure our borders. It’s clear that they’re using it as an excuse to bully us, how could we, how would we endure this!”
“Right! This matter is absolutely not favorable, we absolutely can’t endure this!”
Everyone’s emotions were stirred up.
“Since they determined that we were the ones who did it, then good, come! Come fight!” The tall and sturdy big guy said with an evil grin. “We might not be many, but we 2,000,000 people will exchange for a few hundred million casualties, we have this certainty!”
“And afterwards?” Big Mister Ye drank a mouthful of liquor and faintly asked.
“Afterwards, heh heh, those 2,000,000 people will be dead, won’t they still have us?” The tall and sturdy big guy’s laughter was like the clattering of iron. “With us right now, not including the boss, we still have 25 people here, and these 25 people are very good experts.”
“With our 25 experts, if we want to depart, could anyone block us?”
“Then precisely during the time we can freely move around, they’ll have to wait until all 25 of us die out… This Human Realm Upon Heavens…” The tall and sturdy big guy’s eyes looked almost strict. “I dare to assert! This world wouldn’t have anywhere left that wasn’t a tract of ruins!”
The tall and sturdy big guy’s face broke open.
“Why can only you take action, if I and Saint Dragon Bright Phoenix together also take action…” Ye Hongchen faintly smiled. “Do you think we would be able to send this Human Realm Upon Heavens back into ancient times with one blow?”
“Why not? In any case, Big Brother Ye will be the final victor! The remaining people won’t be enough to have an opinion!”
The tall and sturdy big guy’s eyes were full of confidence. “Big Brother has always been unrivalled. He was before, and he still is now!”
Ye Hongchen faintly smiled once more. Facing 25 pairs of fervent eyes, he hadn’t yet responded to this comment of being unrivalled.
“Brother Guan, has your investigation into who was behind that chaotic situation turned up anything?” Ye Hongchen looked at Guan Shanyao.
Guan Shanyao shook his head. “I investigated carefully several times. From beginning to end, there weren’t any clear-cut traces. However, several of our people unexpectedly had the same strange feeling… It’s just… concerning the person who took action to manufacture our current situation, they’re apparently our acquaintances. But it’s exactly because they feel familiar that leaves us so baffled.”
“Because, anyone who is capable of making us old fogies feel familiar should be long dead, precisely turned to dust… Moreover, that long dead is more than a few tens of thousands of years…”
Guan Shanyao said, “Summing up all of our current information, this little brother feels that perhaps this time’s chaotic misfortune is actually a huge conspiracy, one that absolutely can’t be taken lightly!”
While Guan Shanyao was saying this, everyone was calmly and respectfully listening.
No one said anything to interfere.
Because everyone knew, he would certainly state the matter clearly and distinctly for everyone to understand.
