Chapter 787: The Wicked and the Good
Yun Haoyu saw that the strange treasure was destroyed by her without hesitation, and sighed with some regret and said, "No matter how you say it, it is also a rare treasure!" Even if I can't use it, you can keep it for yourself, right? ”
"Is it interesting for me to live that long?" Fang Yuqing asked with a smile.
Or...... Do you want me to go to another man after you die? If you don't mind, then I can consider it! ”
"How can this be reasonable, it's really looking for a fight!" Yun Haoyu pretended to glare at her fiercely, if it weren't for the fact that her sister was also there, she would have been "rectified" on the spot!
……
After returning to the imperial palace, the two took a nap and continued to deal with government affairs in the afternoon.
According to Tian Xuanhao's recital, in recent times, the provocations of the Gnaslock Empire have become more and more direct and arrogant! Even some of the elite legions directly under His Majesty the Emperor have joined in the harassment of the Imperial defense line! For this reason, he asked Yun Haoyu to agree that if necessary, he could be given the right to fight back!
In this regard, Yun Haoyu naturally didn't say a word, and immediately approved "agree", and allowed him to use some secret weapons under suitable circumstances, and let those guys suffer a loss without a trace! Even if you can't win the game, it is always beneficial to your side to weaken the opponent as much as possible before the final battle begins!
"I've heard that a number of rebellions have broken out in the territory of the former Shalestinian Alliance, which has held back a lot of their forces, and Ulyonov IV has not had a good time lately! Is that so? Yun Haoyu looked at the information in front of him and asked Fang Yuqing beside him.
She nodded slightly: "That's right! As a fanatical, closed, and conservative religious power, even if the state government system completely collapses due to force majeure external factors, as long as the faith is still there and the backbone of the organizational system within the church is still there, such a country cannot be said to have been completely conquered! ”
Think of the example of the Earth Age, where all those religious countries are extremely difficult opponents to mess with! Even if you have enough force to take it down, it will be no more difficult to conquer it completely and make the country grow in the direction you want it to go than it is to let the sun come out of the west!
At that time, a superpower besieged a small religious country with all its national strength, and within a few months of the war, its apparent political structure was completely dismantled! But in the face of the mushrooming resistance groups, fanatical religious extremists, human flesh bombs, all kinds of terrorist activities, and huge war machines, they have fallen into a dilemma of being exhausted and exhausted!
The war has been fought for several years, facing higher and higher casualty figures, equipment losses, and military spending that is rolling upward! In the end, the superpower had to make a reluctant decision to withdraw its troops completely! And directly led to the full-scale outbreak of the domestic political and economic crisis!
Later, after mankind entered the interstellar age, many examples have fully demonstrated that becoming an opponent of a religious country with a unity of religion and religion is a situation that the heads of major countries are not happy to see!
And now, after the Shalestins coalition was occupied by the forces of Ulionov IV, the situation in the country could not be calmed down smoothly! Countless fanatical believers have called on the hundreds of millions of followers of the Alliance to unite and wage a "holy war" to drive the barbaric, arrogant, rude, and shameless infidels of the Gnaslok Empire out of their homeland!
In this regard, Ulyanov IV, who had completely inherited the brutal and barbaric ruling style of the imperial family, did not adopt a moderate policy of pacification, division, and infiltration according to the situation, but brazenly declared: All believers must unconditionally renounce their original beliefs within one month! From now on, there will be no more prayers, gatherings, pilgrimages, etc. All subjects must recognize themselves as citizens of the Gnasrock Empire, and the object of their faith must be a legitimate religion recognized by the imperial government!
As soon as this decree came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the territory of the original alliance! The volcano, which was already brewing, suddenly erupted with a thunderous momentum! Overnight, more than 10,000 new jihadist groups emerged across the alliance!
Needless to say, these extremist religious organizations, which have a broad local mass base, are not short of money, people, or even heavy main battle equipment! After all, the former alliance is also a superpower, and its industrial base is not inferior to that of other superpowers, and there are naturally many secret military-industrial bases!
They are well-organized, have a clear division of labor, are secretive, and ruthless and resolute, using every conceivable tactic to continuously attack the Imperial Legions, which have just been stationed and whose foundations are far from stable! In just a few months, millions of fleets have been killed and wounded in the Empire! There was an uproar at the top of the empire.
Ulionov IV could not hold his face, but instead of reflecting on the mistakes of his policy, he immediately ordered even more drastic measures against these guys who valued faith more than life!
"Since these stubborn gods won't go with us, let them go with you!"
The Emperor said this to a group of captive religious and spiritual leaders. In an instant, these high-ranking clergy who enjoyed high prestige in the territory of the alliance were all burned at the stake!
Such a move is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire! As a result, the resistance movement, which was already flourishing everywhere, developed more and more vigorously! Many fanatical believers have come forward to launch a series of attacks on the Imperial Legion's garrison! While paying an unimaginable price, it also caused huge casualties on the side of the Empire!
For this reason, Ulyanov IV had to mobilize more fleets and manpower and material resources to quell the rebellion in the territory of the Union, which seriously slowed down the process of the Empire's military expansion!
"In fact, there is only one way to effectively deal with such an extremist religious country!" Yun Haoyu said thoughtfully, "It's just that there will be a lot of people who will die, and the impact is too bad, it depends on whether His Majesty can make up his mind!" ”
Fang Yuqing thought about it sideways, and said, "According to other people's analysis, such a possibility completely exists, and it is not small!" Just look at the current comparison of the military strength of the two countries, and you can guess how the emperor will decide! He has never been a monarch who cares about human life! ”
This method is naturally to kill people! Through large-scale, inhumane killings, a general panic and psychological shock is created among the population! It will be possible to stabilize the situation in the shortest possible time and establish the effective rule of the empire over all parts of the alliance!
As for how many people will have to be killed to achieve such an effect, it is unknown! Maybe 10 billion, or 50 billion, 100 billion, or more! Of course, in the eyes of Ulionov IV, this is just a big number! It won't make him hesitate too much!
"That's right! Standing in the position of the Gnaslock Empire, in order to quickly calm down the situation and concentrate all resources to compete with the Starlight Empire for the dominance of the future Star Sea, this murderous edict must be issued! He didn't sacrifice himself to fulfill the consciousness of others! Yun Haoyu nodded, agreeing with her analysis:
"In fact, in any case, the more lively the fight in that part of the alliance, wouldn't it be more beneficial to us? Perhaps, we still have to consider whether to add another fire to them! ”
"What do you mean?" Fang Yuqing blinked her clear beautiful eyes and asked with some uncertainty:
"Funding and equipping those organizations in the Coalition or something? Although this method is good, it does not have much effect in the short term, and the decisive battle is imminent, it seems that the meaning of this is not as great as imagined! ”
Yun Haoyu smiled: "Yes! At least for now, those organizations are not short of anything! So we don't have to, but there are more effective ways to do it, and it doesn't cost the empire a credit! ”
"You...... No way? Fang Yuqing was so smart, she understood his thoughts in the blink of an eye, and couldn't help but say with some concern:
"Although Innocent VI's old god stick has been attached to the empire, he may not have other thoughts in his heart, but we are keeping an eye on it now, and he and the group of old and young people in the alliance dare not make any moves! If you plan to use his prestige and influence to indirectly control those extremist organizations in the alliance territory, I am afraid it will be self-defeating, and it will really make him a climate, and the fun will be great! ”
Yun Haoyu shook his head hurriedly: "That's not what I meant!" It's just that he secretly made a few statements against those extremist organizations, so that those outlaws can toss more happily! As for the rest, it has nothing to do with him! ”
"Oh! If that's the case, it's okay! The queen smiled slightly, "There is no free lunch in the world, since these gods enjoy the title and fortune of the empire, of course, they must also contribute to the empire!" to be worthy of who they are now, isn't it? ”
……
The matter was agreed, and the relevant edict was soon sent to the residence of Innocent VI.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, it's really not a fuel-efficient lamp!" In the living room, the former pope looked at the edict in front of him, and his old face was full of wry smiles.
"How can a person not bow his head under the eaves?" Tai Beisha, the former supreme consul of the republic, said melancholy, "It's just a pity for the hundreds of millions of believers of the Alliance!" I don't know how many lives will be sacrificed in this incident! ”
These two have been in power for a long time, and of course they understand His Majesty the Emperor's intentions! The situation in the Union has not been calmed down for a long time, and that brutal Ulyanov IV is already on the verge of breaking out! As long as there is a fire, a large-scale bloody massacre will become his inevitable choice!
Since this territory will be under the rule of the Starlight Empire sooner or later in the future, then take advantage of the fact that it is not yet unified, with the help of the hands of the Gnaslock Empire, this territory will be completely cleansed! Let those who dare to resist die! In the future, when the empire accepts this territory, it will not encounter much resistance, and it will also take the opportunity to implement some benevolent government in order to buy the hearts and minds of the people!
In a word, the empire is now going to force Ulyonov IV to be a villain! When the time comes, the Starlight Empire will receive the results and be a good person!
This is Yangmou! Both bigwigs understood the emperor's thoughts, but they couldn't do anything but carry out orders!
"Forget it, whatever Your Majesty commands, we will do it!" The former pope sighed deeply, "May our children forgive us!" ”
