Chapter 240: Cruel Reality
Hearing Cheelcy's naΓ―ve remarks, Zhang Chai felt a burst of amusement, and he couldn't help but mock: "Conscience? How much is conscience worth? You don't think that the so-called conscience alone can benefit the people, do you? To be honest, I do not deny the atrocities of the imperial authorities, but the revolutionary army created wars and displaces countless people, and even colluded with foreigners to invade the empire! Do you dare to deny this? β
"You're too narrow-minded! We are here to build a good nation to live and work in......" Chelsea retorted.
"That's it!" Zhang Chai interrupted: "This is not the place to talk, if you have the guts, come with me, let's talk about it in another place." β
Looking at Zhang Chai's figure gradually moving away, Chelsea hesitated for a moment, and finally followed.
As Zhang Chai said before, after losing the emperor's tool, even if she returns to the revolutionary army, it will not play a role, it is better to try to negotiate with Zhang Chai, anyway, she is ready to die at any time.
Not long after, under the leadership of Zhang Chai, the two came to the imperial city.
Looking at the majestic imperial city, Chelsea swallowed her saliva unconsciously, and said a little nervously: "Do you need to come to this kind of place for talking?" β
For Chelsea, the Imperial City was the enemy's stronghold, and she had to worry about it.
"Before we get into the conversation, there's something I'd like to show you, and I'm sure you'll be surprised." Zhang Chai sneered, and led a confused Chelsea into the underground intelligence library located in the depths of the imperial city.
"The archives stored here are first-hand and precious information collected by Imperial intelligence officers." Zhang took out a document from the filing cabinet, handed it to Chelsea, and introduced: "This document records all kinds of crimes committed by Western foreign nations since they invaded the empire. β
Chelsea frowned. Flipping through the information, I saw the following paragraph written on the first page: '...... 21st. Night. We were ordered to go to Hasen County, which was occupied by the alien army, to secretly reconnoiter the movements of the local alien army...... I saw a scene that I will never forget in my life. Hasan County has been sacked by hordes of alien soldiers, and the streets are littered with foul-smelling corpses, including young men and women, as well as old men and children...... The only ones who can survive are the beautiful women, who look desperate and helpless, but there is nothing we can do......
The further down she looked, Chelsea's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, she slowly clenched her fists, looked up and questioned, "What you gave me is fake information!" According to the information I have received. Hasen County fell because it was sacked by a group of imperial soldiers and bandits after the defeat! Your sowing discord is useless to me! β
"Imperial bandits? Sow discord? Zhang Chai narrowed his eyes unkindly, and said coldly: "There are as many as two thousand imperial soldiers killed in Hasen County!" If they are all bandits, is it necessary for them to be trapped in a dead city and die for a dead city? Don't think of your allies as kind, they are the aliens who have a deep grudge against the Imperials! It was not surprising to these foreigners that the Empire was slaughtered on a large scale. β
With that, Zhang Chai took out a scroll from the filing cabinet and threw it into Chelsea's hand. Said lightly: "This is a new invention of the alchemist of the empire, called the memory scroll, which clearly records the scene that happened at that time, you might as well open it and take a look." β
"The scene was ......," Chelsea stared at the memory scroll in a daze. Her hands trembled involuntarily, and she had a strong premonition that once she opened this memory scroll. My beliefs may be turned upside down......
"Don't you dare to look at it?" Zhang Chai looked at Chelsea defiantly.
Chelsea gritted her teeth and slowly pulled open the memory scroll.
"It's ......," Chelsea's face suddenly turned strange. Through the memory scroll, she saw a man and three women lying on the bed doing intense primitive movements. The scene is unsightly......
ββ¦β¦ Shameless! Are you kidding me?! Her pretty face flushed, her beautiful eyes glared at Zhang Chai, and she threw the memory scroll to the ground fiercely.
"Huh?" Zhang Chai was stunned, then picked up the memory scroll and looked at it, he said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry...... I took it wrong, this is the evidence of the crime of corrupt officials forcibly robbing people's women......"
He hurriedly stuffed the memory scroll he had held in his hand back into the filing cabinet, then took out another memory scroll and handed it over.
"Don't get it wrong!" Chelsea glared at him, and took the memory scroll angrily.
"No......" Zhang turned his head in disagreement.
"Humph!" Chelsea pulled open the memory scroll with no dissipation, and when she saw the contents of the scroll, her face changed instantly!
Through this memory scroll, she saw a terrifying picture like purgatory......
Countless Western alien soldiers rode war horses, trampled and rammed the soldiers and civilians of the Empire, and these Western alien soldiers smiled and brandished their swords and guns, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the Empire, regardless of whether there were innocent civilians in them.
"How could they do such a thing...... "Chercy's face began to turn a little pale, she put down the memory scroll in her hand with great difficulty, and said in a hoarse voice, "...... When I get back, I'll report this to my boss and let the people of the Western Kingdom clean up these scum scum in the army! β
"Heh, your boss will obediently listen to you?" Zhang Chai shrugged his shoulders and sneered: "Do you think that the top brass of the revolutionary army will destroy the relationship with their allies for the sake of these people who died in vain?" Without the support of the Western Kingdom, how could the revolutionary army fight against the entire army of the empire? β
When Chelsea heard this, she was immediately speechless.
Now that the battle situation ahead is stalemate, without the assistance of the Western alien army, the revolutionary army is likely to suffer a heavy and even devastating blow! She really couldn't say for sure whether the high-ranking figures at the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army would delve into this matter......
But......
Do those innocent civilians deserve to die in vain?!
Chelsea bit her lower lip tightly, looking very confused.
Seeing this, the corners of Zhang Chai's mouth curled slightly, and he continued to mock: "I'm afraid your boss will only tell you that we have to take into account the overall situation and think about the so-called righteousness, because compared to the establishment of a new country, these small sacrifices are insignificant, and history will wash all this...... That's right! History does wash everything! But! Why have you worked so hard against the Empire? Aren't you fighting for the people? Well, hurt the people! And even these cowardly acts of conniving at the impunity of the murderers of the people! Is it the so-called for the people?! No kidding! This is so hypocritical and shameful! β
Zhang Chai's words were sonorous and powerful, deafening!
Cheelse's face became more and more pale, and her whole person was like a candle in the wind, and even her originally energetic eyes became dull.
"This is just the tip of the iceberg, I still have some information about the revolutionary army, I don't know if you dare to read it?" Zhang Chai took out a document and shook it twice in front of Chelsea. (To be continued......)
