Chapter 493: A Tempting Offer
Shi Xiaoling thought that what Mao Weifang said was also reasonable, in fact, Li Kang had indeed revealed that he wanted to betray the reformists and make meritorious service to atone for their crimes; the reformists had attracted many talented people to join the reformists with the slogan of establishing a fair and just new society with a legal system and constitutional government, and the real high-level leaders like Li Kang who were so greedy for profit were only a part of them, and if everyone was arrested and killed by the Security Bureau because of this, the consequences would indeed be unimaginable.
Shi Xiaoling nodded and said, "It's because I didn't think it through, I knew that I should have used the soul dementor ** to control Li Kang's mind first, so that you don't have to kill him." ”
Mao Weifang was extremely interested in Shi Xiaoling's soul dementor **, and asked: "It seems that Yuan Huailiang, director of the Security Bureau, and that Wang Hengjun are obedient to you, are they going to obey you for the rest of their lives after falling into your soul dementor**?"
Shi Xiaoling smiled: "Probably, but I don't want to control other people's minds like this for the rest of my life." I've cast a spell to lift the ban on them, and in a year the two of them will be fully recovered. ”
Mao Weifang was surprised: "Why is this? Yuan Huailiang and Wang Hengjun are not good people, what's wrong with letting them completely obey your command?"
Shi Xiaoling smiled: "You don't understand, a person's spiritual will will will be very painful and confused after being locked. I had suffered from amnesia, and the pain of the helpless and confused attacks was worse than death. ”
"I think it's too cruel to use the soul dementor ** to cause other people's lifelong suffering, the ultimate goal of martial arts should be to break through the limit and surpass oneself, in order to better appreciate the beauty and wonder of life, if I have been using martial arts to control people's hearts, I think sooner or later I will also fall into the abyss of the demon road, so it is better to use less of this kind of thing. ”
Mao Weifang said with a sense of disappointment: "You are reluctant to use such a magical method, I originally expected you to control the Great Führer, in that case, maybe the people of the Star Continent will have hope." ”
Shi Xiaoling said with a smile: "The Great Leader is dead, and besides, I don't think that controlling the Great Leader will save the people of the entire Star Continent." ”
"What ?......"
Mao Weifang was taken aback, and asked repeatedly: "You said that the Great Führer is dead? Could it be that you have already killed the Grand Führer? Didn't you say that you did not agree to Li Kang's conditions?......
Shi Xiaoling said indifferently while driving: "The head of state was killed by Yuan Huailiang by mistake, although I was present at the time, I was also caught off guard, this is probably the arrangement of fate." ”
Mao Weifang hurriedly asked for details, and Shi Xiaoling briefly explained what happened in Yuan Huailiang's private castle. Mao Weifang was silent for a moment after hearing this.
Shi Xiaoling said: "Although no one is tracking us now, our car is too conspicuous, I am afraid that the personnel at various checkpoints in the city will recognize this as the special car of the Great Fuhrer." For the sake of your safety, I would like to contact Zhu Jiang and ask him to send a car to pick you up, and after you leave safely, I can also return to the Ganquan base as soon as possible. What do you think?"
Mao Weifang was pleasantly surprised: "Zhu Jiang is not dead? I thought he had been secretly executed by Li Kang's men." ”
Shi Xiaoling briefly talked about how he met Li Kang's firing squad in the southern suburbs and rescued Zhu Jiang, and then said: "You use my phone number to contact Zhu Jiang, it will always be safer to change cars early." ”
Mao Weifang shook his head and said, "Since the Great Führer is dead and Li Kang is also dead, the situation in the Star Continent will definitely be very different. The immediate priority now is not my safety, but to inform the reformists and the backbone members of the Yellow Shirts to take action as soon as possible. ”
"According to my estimate, once the news of the unexpected death of the great head of state is made public, it will inevitably cause a huge shock in the military and political circles, and no one can control the military and political power as the original Yuan Datou, and the Star Continent will inevitably soon enter a chaotic situation of fighting for power. ”
Shi Xiaoling said with some worry: "This is exactly what I am worried about, I have already instructed Yuan Huailiang and Wang Hengjun to do as much good as possible to benefit the country and the people, but according to what you said, it seems that the status of the two of them is not enough to control the overall situation." ”
Mao Weifang said affirmatively: "That's nature. Yuan Huailiang is a mediocre talent, and although Yuan Zhongtian's other sons are also in high positions in the military and political circles, they are not extraordinary, and it is estimated that it is also difficult to completely control the situation. Many high-ranking members of the reformists had long been preparing to seize power after the assassination of the Führer, and although Li Kang was dead, the high-ranking leaders of the reformists would continue to act in this direction. ”
"With the existing talents of the Yuan family, even if they reluctantly take over the position of the head of state, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public, and the two factions of the reformists and the Yuan family will inevitably wage a fierce struggle for power and profit, I think political turmoil is inevitable, unless it is ......"
"Unless ...... something"
Shi Xiaoling saw that Mao Weifang suddenly stopped talking, and asked a little strangely.
"Unless you can come forward, you may be able to control the two major forces of the Yuan family and the reformists on your own. In this way, the Star Continent will have the opportunity to promote institutional reform under a relatively stable framework. Mao Weifang said excitedly.
"I ?......"
Shi Xiaoling was taken aback, he glanced at Mao Weifang, and saw that Mao Weifang's face was sincere, it didn't seem like he was joking, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "I don't know anything about the military and political structure of the Star Continent, how can I control the two major forces of the Yuan family and the reform faction? let alone promote reform." What are you kidding?"
Mao Wei said squarely: "I didn't laugh. After the death of Yuan Datou, although the Yuan family could inherit and hold most of the power, it was bound to be strongly challenged by many ambitious bureaucrats. Judging from the existing talents of the Yuan family, I am afraid that it will be difficult to control the overall situation like Yuan Datou in the past. Although Li Kang died, the determination of the reformist top brass to overthrow the rule of the Yuan family will not weaken, but will be strengthened with the death of Yuan Datou. ”
Although the temporary power of the reformists is still a little weak, there are also many people in the military and political circles who support it, and the Yuan family is currently eager to take over the power left by Yuan Datou, but I am afraid that there is not much time and energy to deal with the reformists, and the reformists will inevitably take this opportunity to expand their power in a big way. It is conceivable that the political turmoil that follows will inevitably be quite intense. ”
Shi Xiaoling wondered: "So what? Although I don't want to see the political turmoil, since the head of state is dead, the situation you said is inevitable, but what does this have to do with me?"
Mao Weifang said: "At present, the person with the best chance to take over the throne of Yuan Datou must be Yuan Huailiang, director of the Security Bureau, who is the eldest son of Yuan Datou, who has controlled the Security Bureau for many years, and has close relations with many powerful factions in the government, and will definitely be elected to the top position." And you have already controlled his mind, by controlling Yuan Huailiang, you can easily control most of the Yuan family, even if there are people in the Yuan family who oppose it, with your superhuman means, it is really easy to deal with those who jump out against you. ”
"As for the reformists, although I have withdrawn, I still have a good understanding of the personnel structure in it, and I still have a certain influence on the Yellow Shirts. As long as you're willing to help, I think I'll soon be able to take back control of the Yellow Shirts, and then help you take the position of reformist leader by force. If someone is not convinced, Li Kang will be their end. ”
"Shi Xiaoling, you control Yuan Huailiang, the director of the Security Bureau, which is equivalent to controlling half of the Yuan family, as well as the entire Security Bureau and me, the leader of the Yellow Shirt Army, for your use, plus your own superhuman martial arts strength, it is not impossible to completely control the two major forces of the Yuan family and the reformers. When you actually take power, we can implement a new society with a real constitutional rule of law......"
With Mao Weifang's impassioned and gushing agitation, Shi Xiaoling quietly parked the car on the side of the road and quietly listened to Mao Weifang's opinion. After Mao Weifang finished speaking, Shi Xiaoling shook his head slightly and said, "Brother Mao, I understand what you mean, but I think you are thinking too simply." I am just an unknown small character in the military and political circles of the Star Continent, although I have some advantages as you said, but it is difficult to convince the public after all, and if I barely get ahead, I will inevitably encounter strong resistance from people from all walks of life. ”
Mao Weifang was about to speak, Shi Xiaoling waved his hand and said: "I understand what you mean, you think that I can control the two powerful forces of the Security Bureau and the Yellow Shirt Army through Yuan Huailiang and you, if someone is not convinced, I can use the power of the Security Bureau or the Yellow Shirt Army to get rid of them, right?"
Mao Weifang said excitedly: "Yes, with the Security Bureau and the Yellow Shirt Army in hand, even if there are people in the military and political circles who are not convinced, you can immediately eradicate them, so that your prestige can be established quickly." Besides, you have superhuman strength, and you can use your soul dementor ** if necessary, why is it difficult to control these high-ranking military and political officials who are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Shi Xiaoling shook his head and said: "The Star Continent is a modern society, unlike the ancient martial arts world where the strong are kings, it is not that you can do whatever you want by controlling a group of high-ranking military and political officials by force. Even in ancient societies, I thought it would be difficult to dominate the world by force alone. ”
"What's more, if I do what you want, I will inevitably use coercive means to eradicate a large number of people who oppose me, a nobody, coming to power, and how different is this from the previous methods of the Great Führer? ”
Mao Weifang hurriedly said: "No, I know who you are, you are not a person like Yuan Datou, you will not become another Yuan Datou." ”
Shi Xiaoling smiled and said, "Of course I won't become Yuan Datou, because I won't use the Security Bureau or the Yellow Shirt Army to eradicate dissidents as you said, I can't do that kind of thing, and I don't think that doing so will be beneficial to the transformation of the Star Continent." ”
