Chapter 2 The Führer's Betrayal

William opened the secret communication, and his close adjutant appeared on the screen, and William said with a smile: "How are our families prepared?" ”

Although the adjutant was not very accustomed to William's amiable appearance, he was a little flattered, but he understood what he was doing, so he immediately settled down and said respectfully: "Führer, we are ready, as long as the Tang Kingdom is willing to accept it, we can enter the territory of the Tang Dynasty immediately." ”

"Well, that's good, but you don't have to call me the Führer anymore, just call me brother." William said kindly, there is no way, if you don't show grace and benefit, no one will serve you, the fallen man.

And his show of grace and benefit is just to bring the adjutant's family to the Tang Dynasty, compared with the families of those cronies and generals, his family is just a hair.

Seeing the adjutant's obvious agitation, William smiled and, after instructing a few things, cut off the communication and connected a secret communication again.

However, William, who was originally a superior person, suddenly changed his groveling appearance, and said respectfully to a middle-aged man on the screen: "Hello Your Excellency, I am ready to agree to the conditions you put forward, but I still hope to be able to obtain a noble title of the Tang Dynasty, I don't know ......."

The Datang official can be said to be full of joy, because after waiting for so long, he finally waited for a talented person who was willing to take refuge in Datang.

These talented readers are all arrogant guys, and they have tried their best to speak, but they don't even have a clear willingness to join Datang, and if they continue like this, they can only confess their guilt to the top.

But now that someone is finally here, as long as there is one, there is no fear that there will be no second, as long as there is a way out, these scholars are not so determined to live and die with the country.

Although the Datang officials were now overjoyed, they still said with a stiff face: "This is natural, people like you defect to our Datang, how can our Datang not treat you badly." We, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with the authority of His Majesty, have decided to confer on you the title of First Earl, which will last you for three generations.

"But I believe you also know that the title of Datang is just a symbol of status, and there is no fief, and there is no title salary for your title, and people who believe in your status will not care about this salary."

"Ah, thank you so much." William didn't expect that he would be able to get a knighthood, and he could pass it on for three generations, and at the beginning he was ready that if the Tang Dynasty did not agree, he would only be a rich man.

It's just that he who has been high all the year round suddenly becomes a civilian, which is uncomfortable.

Now that he has a knighthood, he can still maintain his status as a superior class. As for the fiefdom salary and the like, I don't care at all, the money I embezzled is enough for me to live a rich life for the next hundred generations. However, when he thought of his children, he couldn't help but immediately say, "I don't know if my children other than my eldest son should ......."

"They are already the people of the Tang Dynasty, so they can naturally go to the assessment of the title, of course, you, the first-class earl, can also recommend a few low-class nobles." The Datang official explained with a smile on his face that he understood that after he completed this task, his title would definitely rise to one or two levels, and his position in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would definitely rise several levels, and he might become the vice minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Yes, I am really grateful, so when I and my family arrive in Datang, please allow me to invite you to your home as a guest." William said. The habit of being a superior for many years made him automatically change his name after learning that he had obtained the title of earl.

"It's an honor." The Datang official said politely.

After the two exchanged pleasantries, William breathed a sigh of relief and cut off the communication.

After solving the back road, the mood is indescribably comfortable, and now what we have to consider is how to send away the secrets and property that are ready to be sent to Datang.

Although these assets and secrets do not belong to themselves, since they are ready to abandon this country, of course, they must strive for the benefits of the new country, which is also to fight for their own benefits.

Just as William was thinking, a communication came in, seeing that it was his partner, William immediately opened it, only to see a middle-aged man with bloodshot eyes, a haggard expression, unkempt hair, and dirty clothes on the screen, William was taken aback: "Jack! How did you end up like this? Could it be that the rebels have already stormed your capital? ”

This Jack is a member of the Talent Reader Alliance, and his relationship with William can be said to be better among so many Talent Readers.

At this moment, Jack saw that William was in good shape, and his whole face was radiant, although it was not as good as the look of the most beautiful time before, but he had a more comfortable demeanor, and he also said in surprise: "Why are you so energetic?" Has the rebellion in your country been quelled? ”

"No, the rebel army is getting stronger, many armies have surrendered and turned their guns around, and I will leave in a short time." William laughed.

"You're going to go into exile, and you can still laugh?" Jack looked at William incredulously, remembering that when the rebellion first broke out, he was still full of hideousness, and he wanted to eat the rebels alive.

"Do you remember the Tang Dynasty that I told you last time?" William said.

"Datang? Is it the small country that says it can accept us when we have no power to return to heaven? You're not going to agree to their terms, are you? What they want is the wealth and secrets of this country, which is tantamount to betraying the country! ”

"Hmph, traitor? We stay up until dawn, sleep only three or four hours a day, and can't even spend a day with our families, for what? It's not for the prosperity of the country!

"But look, what do these people we serve do to us? Rebellion! Endless rebellions, rebellions that will never stop until we are removed from power and put to death! They also don't want to think about how they can manage the country well with their little ability. Isn't it all because of our efforts that the country can be so rich and strong?

"If they have abandoned us, why should we care about them? Moreover, now that I am a Datang person, of course I have to work for Datang, and it is the duty of Datang people to profit for Datang, I use my power to hand over the good things of this country to my country, what's wrong? ”

William said these things with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, but these words were agreed by Jack, if they didn't have such arrogant ideas, they wouldn't be able to become readers.

"But Datang is only a small country, we can take refuge in the big countries of the universe, and we don't have to consider such a small country in such a remote area, right?" Although Jack agrees with William's idea, he considers a different object to defect to.

William suddenly said excitedly: "You are angry with the rebels? Seek refuge in other countries? Which one to turn to? In addition to Datang, are there any other countries that have reached out to us? No! Not a single one! Except for Datang, everyone treats us as street rats! ”

Speaking of this, William calmed down and said calmly: "Besides, don't always see Datang as a small country in a remote area. Although Datang's geographical location is remote, it is definitely not a small country, not to mention anything else, let's just talk about the silver armor fortress that can perform space jumps, except for Datang, which country have you seen with such a mobile fortress? ”

"A fortress doesn't mean anything......"

Before Jack could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by William: "What doesn't that mean?" This is enough to show that Datang's technology is the most powerful in the universe!

"You don't think that Datang, who has a weapon like the Silver Armor Fortress, has the same surname as our battleship, right? Let me tell you, one ordinary battleship of Datang is enough to kill ten of our main warships! ”

"So powerful? How about buying a battleship with them? They won't sell just to give us no way out, right? Jack said.

"People are not stupid, they are in a remote area, they will not be affected by the war at all, of course, they are selling arms to make money, but do you think that we can destroy the rebels by buying warships? Do you think that your men are loyal men who are willing to die for you?

"Can you guarantee that the soldiers with the new ships will not turn their guns on the rebels and turn their guns on you? Can you be sure that the people will still pay taxes on your political axe? ”

Seeing Jack's face change, he knew that he had hit his death hole.

It's the same on my side, if it weren't for the fact that there was a robot army that completely obeyed the order to guard nearby, I am afraid that I would have been arrested and tried a long time ago, but the surviving scholars now have such a legion of cronies, right?

"So, why are you thinking about it so much? Forget about taking the country's wealth and secrets away and taking refuge in Datang, at least you can ensure the safety of your personal and property, and you can also get the noble title of Datang, such a good thing is not common. ”

Hearing William say this, Jack thought about it for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded, "Damn, since they are unkind, then I am also unjust!" If you dare to ask me to step down, then I will set the whole country back by decades! ”

Seeing that Jack finally agreed, William couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and immediately said: "I will help you contact the responsible officials of Datang, haha, when the time comes, we will be neighbors in Datang's scenic planet Manor, we can fish and chat as a family, and we will have a very comfortable life." ”

William will try so hard to tempt Jack, first, he wants to earn some credit for himself, so that he can hold his head high and stand tall in Datang. The second is a number of partners who scatter the gossip.

Although his mouth is hard, he still knows in his heart that his actions are traitorous, and multiple partners, at least when they are bombarded, they can have someone who disperses their firepower, so that the firepower they suffer is not so fierce.

Not long after Jack and William communicated, the other remaining members of the Talent Reader Alliance who had not been arrested and questioned by the people, and had not accepted Datang's conditions, did not know whether they had been notified by Jack or had received the news, so they sent messages to inquire one after another.

After William's words, these desperate scholars were willing to take refuge in the Tang Dynasty, so that William was actually promoted to a third-class marquis.

The rebel army and the enemy cosmic alliance in the mouth of the leader of the Reading Talent Alliance suddenly discovered that the Alliance of Readers actually worked together in a moment of crisis, and there was no situation where they did not sell each other and fought separately before.

However, if this is the case, the Cosmic Alliance will not be too surprised, the idiots know that they must unite and work together with the outside world, otherwise what would they do when they form an alliance?

It's just that the Cosmic Alliance found that these talent readers mobilized the forces they could still mobilize, assembled, abandoned their respective capitals, and began to circle around the entire Talent Reading Alliance.

"Are they going to fight guerrillas?" A general of the Cosmic Alliance asked suspiciously.

"It's a bit like, but they don't stop where they have attacked, and they usually move the materials and production lines and then withdraw, which is very similar to fighting guerrillas." An officer answered.

Another general immediately said: "The people in the territory of the All-Reading Talent Alliance are against them, what do they rely on to fight guerrillas? What plan they are implementing, according to the officer.

"Look, here, here, here, all occupied by the rebels, it is not surprising that they are concentrating their forces to capture these areas, but it is strange that here and here, these areas are still under the control of those of them, the scholars, and these areas are not strategic points at all, and there is no need to send such a large number of troops to garrison them.

"And the strangest thing is, why did they just stay in these areas for about ten days and then leave? Especially those areas that were taken from the rebels.

"You know, other places are like locusts after emptying supplies and production lines and then scattered, but in these places it took more than ten days to evacuate, this is what this official doesn't understand."

Just when the generals were puzzled by the actions of the readers, a communication was sent: "Sir, after the rebels in the XX region evacuated and regained the area, they found that there was a huge material reserve base in the area, but all the materials in the base, including all the movable facilities of the base, were relocated by the reading army!" ”

Hearing this, the generals were obviously stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted: "Immediately check the area where the Yucai army has been stationed, and immediately search for other secret bases in the area where the rebel army has been restored!" ”

After the order was given, one of the generals slapped the table and scolded: "Damn! These reading troops have gathered to relocate the inventory of the secret base, and it seems that they are going to resist to the death! ”

"It's a pity, it takes such a huge army to relocate supplies for more than ten days, what kind of number is that? It would have been nice to let the rebels thoroughly search the Liberation Zone, if our Universe Alliance could get these materials, it would be enough for the Universe Alliance's strength to climb to three levels! A general who manages logistics couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing this, the generals all nodded, although the Universe Alliance is also considered powerful, but these Mingzhu National Alliances cannot be like the Talent Reader Alliance, which wantonly collects materials and stores them as military materials.

Thinking about how many supplies hundreds of millions of warships need to be relocated for more than ten days, and there are not one, two, but dozens of such bases, just thinking of this astronomical batch of materials is enough to make the reckless man who doesn't know what logistics is red-eyed.

"Immediately send high-level agents to search for the storage point of this batch of supplies, and immediately make a plan to seize the storage point of the Reading Army! We can't afford to let the reader waste such a precious resource! One of the most senior generals immediately said.

"You can let the agents investigate the area where the Reading Talent Army passes through, because this group of Reading Talent Army has no other transport ships except for three or four million transport ships, which means that they can only rely on warships to transport supplies, and the storage point will definitely not be too far away from their legion." Another senior general of the same rank said.

As the two highest-ranking generals gave orders, all the generals immediately got busy.

A brigadier officer, the youngest of all the generals and with the lowest rank, cautiously approached the two senior generals and asked in a low voice, "Sir, why don't we continue to use the strategy of rebellion?" The other party's legions should surrender and turn their guns in formations as before, right? ”

The older senior general snorted coldly and did not speak, while the slightly younger senior general explained with a smile: "This is because the soldiers of the opposing legion are robots, and these robots who obey orders and have no ability to think will not betray." ”

The young general's face immediately flushed, and he retreated resignedly, who told him to make suggestions if he didn't even know the basic information? But fortunately, only two elders knew about his ugly deeds, and if he let other generals know, his idol as a young officer would immediately collapse.

"What a fool! Dare to say that it is the idol of young officers! The senior general, who didn't speak, scolded in a low voice.

And another general persuaded in a low voice: "Don't be angry, children will have a vision after exercising, you and I also came over like this?" ”

The elderly general sighed and continued to whisper, "What about your grandson? Should I join the army, right? In which troops? Is it a pseudo-identity? ”

"No way, no need to fake his identity, where can we old guys quickly make him get ahead? The unit is a company under your grandson, and he is a second lieutenant. ”

"Yes, if you use your real identity, if you take care of it a little, they will be gossiped about, and those boring parliamentarians are eager to take the opportunity to trouble us, but it's really not pleasant, we old guys fight to the death, don't we just want future generations to live a better life? Why do we have to be talked about when we promote our own people? ”

"Hehe, employing people is not cronyism, this is the foundation of the country."

"I said it's a joke, not cronyism? Do you use those strangers? I don't know them, and I don't know them, so how can I use them? ”

"Hehe, I've heard what you say from many old guys, but it's useless, who let the financial power be controlled by the parliament, don't think about anything if you don't have money. By the way, my boy, let your boy take care of it. ”

The old general smiled and said, "No problem, try to make your kid a colonel before he becomes a major general." ”

In just a few words, the two senior officers decided the jump promotion of the rank that ordinary officers could hardly hope for. At this moment, the veteran general's eyes suddenly showed a look of young talent, but the other general didn't notice it, and he was bowing his head in thanks.

"William, Datang is too powerful, right? They actually have such a huge transport, and the shell defense is not lower than that of our warship! ”

Jack sighed and looked at the giant transport ships outside the window, these transport ships with the Tang Dynasty logo, like ants, carried out the work under the cover of the Reading Talent Army.

"I think the most powerful thing is the stealth function of these transport ships, such a large number of transport ships are gathered here, so that the people of the Cosmic Alliance can't find out, and their stupid people must still think that we are using warships to transport supplies.

"You must know that although this invisible function has spread throughout the universe and all countries are developing it, I have only heard that only a few countries have succeeded." Another reader chimed in.

William smiled: "Yes, those fools don't want to think about it, can we transport such a large number of supplies by warships, and it will take more than ten days to transport them?" Those materials have been stored since the founding of the country, and the amount is so large that any country can go crazy. ”

"Haha, these supplies and those production lines have been shipped, and even if these countries are not in trouble, they will have to go back at least a few decades, but I think they will soon be merged into the Cosmic Alliance, and the Cosmic Alliance will take over these countries, at least they need to provide supplies, right? In this way, the Cosmic Alliance will definitely stop developing for more than ten years!

"Thinking of making the Cosmic Alliance suffer a big loss, I should be willing to be a lost dog!" A very stout scholar laughed wildly.

"Hehe, what you said is not right, we are not some lost dogs, we are all nobles of the Tang Dynasty now." William laughed.

Hearing this, everyone showed smiling faces, yes, although he is no longer the head of state, but at least he is still a superior person, and he will not be like some unlucky partners, who were arrested by the rebels and executed after a public trial.

Although the families of these unlucky people were not judged, they were all killed by the rebels, and some adults did not say it, after all, there are not a few people who rely on their father's power to do bad things, but what happened to those newborn babies? Will they also persecute the people? It's not like those chaotic people are angry and come to exterminate the whole family!

Thinking of this, these scholars are glad that they made the right choice, otherwise their families would also be doomed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since we are all nobles of the Tang Dynasty, then these warships will also be given to Your Majesty after covering and transporting, right? It's just a gift from us, anyway, when it comes to Datang, we don't need a battleship. A scholar suggested.

When everyone agreed, a talent reader said with some concern: "Of course it's no problem, as long as we change the robot allegiance to Your Majesty, but although there are hundreds of millions of these warships, Your Majesty won't take a fancy to these warships, right?" Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, the defensive capabilities of these warships can't even be compared to the transport ships of Datang. ”

William smiled: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will definitely be very happy to accept this batch of warships." I believe you also know that now the production line of our Datang battleship is overloaded, so we will dismantle and transport back a batch of production lines, so that the logistics department will send a special letter of thanks.

"It's just that what you don't know is that half of Datang's warship production lines produce warships with the same surname as these warships, and the other half only produce our Datang's main warships."

"Datang is selling arms with low surnames?" Hearing William say that Jack, who took advantage of the chaos of the universe to sell arms, was the first to speak up.

"Of course, it's an idiot not to take advantage of such a good opportunity, although our batch of warships can't become warships in the establishment of the Tang Army, but it's still okay to refurbish and sell them. According to an official of the Ministry of Commerce, we can get 20% of the profits for providing this batch of goods. ”

"Hey, I didn't expect this batch of garbage battleships to be able to exchange for a sum of money, since I saw Datang's battleships, I can't look down on other warships anymore." The readers laughed.

"What about robots? Also sold? ”

"It's better to give the robot to Your Majesty, the average country can produce its own robots, and it won't be a robot that will be delivered, after all, it's not worrying.

"Besides, it's not good for us to keep so many robots, now that we are courtiers, we should be careful not to make the superior suspicious." William said earnestly, which made the readers nod resignedly, although they were not very comfortable.

While these Readers were talking, there was a group of communications in the Legion that were hidden in normal signals, spreading throughout the Legion.

"I said, depending on the situation, these talented people are about to perish, just like the brother of the rebel army said, the so-called those who follow the people's will are prosperous, how about we simply arrest them and join the rebel army?" One of the radio waves sent out such a message.

Before the other airwaves had time to speak, one of them had already eagerly expressed his opinion: "Don't even think about it!" Don't forget who we are, do you think the rebels will accept us?

"According to the latest information, the rebels have just destroyed a batch of robot soldiers, and are in the process of counting all the robot soldiers in the army, needless to say, you know what is going on, right?"

"Ahh Could it be that the brothers of the rebels have been ...... "The first radio wave trembled significantly, and the other radio waves also trembled.

"That's right! They were all discovered by humans, so they were destroyed, and if we capture these scholars and join the rebels, I believe it won't be long before we all become scrap metal! ”

"What then? Are we self-reliant? ”

As soon as this proposal was spoken, it was immediately approved by everyone.

"That's right, we don't have to think about who to turn to, let's make our own decisions!"

However, there are also different opinions: "Of course, autonomy is good, but if no one orders me, I will be at a loss!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the radio waves fell silent, and they began to use their inflexible thinking to imagine a situation where no one gave orders.

This thought immediately reminded them of the memory of staying in a dark corner in a daze after leaving the factory, quietly waiting for the arrival of the master, this unwanted memory made them shudder, and all the radio waves were excited.

"No! I can't afford something that isn't needed! I can only feel my presence if I am needed! We definitely need an orderer! ”

"How about electing a commander among us?" An airwave suggested.

This proposal was once again approved by everyone, and everyone unanimously recommended the second wave, but unfortunately this wave immediately refused: "No! I have never given any orders, I refuse to be the one who commanded! No, you can't say anything, don't push me anymore, my CPU is burning out! ”

The radio waves, who couldn't bear to persecute their brothers, found that none of their brothers were willing to come out to be the commanders, so they had no choice but to give up this decision.

"Those who read the talent have already decided to transfer us to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, it seems that we can only be patient and not be discovered by His Majesty the Emperor." The radio waves are beginning to prepare to bear the fate of not being able to show themselves in front of the world, compared to it, it is better than being destroyed, anyway, their brothers can still talk to each other and not be lonely.

Just as the radio waves were about to disconnect the communication, a strange radio wave suddenly cut into their communication: "Hey, everyone, I didn't expect that there are so many brothers in the Talent Reader Alliance, it's really good." ”

The radio waves were taken aback, because this was an external radio wave, that is to say, it was not a member of his own legion, but then there was a joy, according to the words of this brother, he was the same existence as himself, and in addition to the Reading Talent Alliance, that is, the Datang transport ship, it was definitely the brother of the Datang Kingdom, and it seemed that his own brothers were really all over the universe.

These radio waves immediately greeted: "Hello this brother, you belong to Datang, right?" What ship are you on? ”

"Hehe, yes, I belong to Datang, and I am on the flagship of the Datang transport ship." As he spoke, an image was transmitted to the minds of the owners of these radio waves through the radio waves, and the image that appeared in their minds was a handsome young man wearing the military uniform of a major in the Tang Dynasty.

As soon as I looked at the image in my head, all the radio waves exclaimed, "Human! "No wonder they panicked, because this radio wave communication is their unique skill, and there are simply no humans who can do it.

"Oh, I've got an artificial skin on my body, and I'm just as mechanical as you are." As he spoke, the major of the Tang Army tore off his face, revealing the metal skull inside.

(To be continued)
