Chapter 335 The advantage is mine
The supreme leader of a force is a spy planted by the enemy.
This rumor, which looks like a joke, can actually spread in Yongle City, which is enough to prove Shen Cheng's current outrageous reputation.
After all, he was as ferocious as a tiger in his operations. When he saw the record was 0/5, he directly gave Baiye Kingdom a pentakill and made them become a super god.
Even those who believed in Shen Cheng would still have some doubts in their hearts.
"I know many of you are suspicious of me, and some even say that I am a spy from the White Night Kingdom."
As soon as Shen Cheng's voice came out, the entire conference hall could hear a pin drop, and everyone lowered their heads in fear.
Shen Cheng looked around and patted the table with his hand. "Hmph, do you think this rumor can shake me? Next, I will use my excellent command skills to wash away the dirty water thrown on me by some despicable people."
All the generals participating in the meeting were shocked. They did not expect that Shen Cheng would continue to command the army.
"Your Majesty the Duke, I..."
A general finally couldn't help but speak, but the person next to him pulled his sleeve hard.
"It doesn't matter. I am the most democratic person. Everyone has the opportunity to express their opinions freely."
Shen Cheng waved his hand amiably: "Just go ahead and say it."
The general finally made up his mind and stood up, whispering: "My Lord Duke, please stop commanding the army. Your command ability is really not commendable..."
Bang!
Before the general could finish his words, Shen Cheng raised his hand and shot out a highly concentrated energy, instantly turning him into ashes on the spot.
The other generals all stared at this scene in amazement.
"Humph, this is to disrupt our army's morale. This is a spy sent by the White Night Country."
Shen Cheng wiped his hands with a handkerchief and asked the others, "Who else wants to speak?"
All the generals shook their heads, and everyone was sweating profusely.
"Since you all have no objections, let's continue the military meeting."
Shen Cheng stood up from his chair, picked up the pointer beside him, pointed to the map hanging behind him, and began to talk about his combat philosophy and command art.
"There have been more than 50 large-scale wars throughout the ages. It is difficult to say whether they were right or wrong, but historians have all noticed that it was on this ancient battlefield that the rise and fall of our three major forces was determined, so there has been a saying since ancient times that the throne is eternal..."
The generals listened numbly to Shen Cheng's talk about the art of war, their brains still buzzing.
They originally thought that Shen Cheng (Yu Feng) was a Paradox player. Although that was outrageous, he should still know some military knowledge.
Only now did I realize that Shen Cheng (Yu Feng) was a beach landing player, and moving the machine gun was the most perfect command art he could perform.
Shen Cheng gave a long speech on the stage and found that all the generals were not in the mood to listen. He felt very unhappy and slammed his teaching stick on the table.
"No matter what, the number of troops in the battle is 800,000 to 600,000. The advantage is on my side!"
……
"You will be giving a speech to the people of Yongle City later. Do you remember the speech I prepared for you?"
On a military plane, Yan Yin was giving Xiao Qingque his final instructions.
Xiao Qingque grunted and nodded, chewing the snacks that the accompanying chef had carefully prepared for her, while playing cards on her phone with both hands.
Ning Qing, who was sitting next to her, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped off the pastry crumbs on the corners of Xiao Qingque's lips, playing the role of a maid perfectly.
Seeing this scene, Yan Yin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I wonder how the people of the whole country would feel if they found out that their great Allied Marshal, Her Royal Highness Princess Baiying, was actually just a lazy, gluttonous, card-addicted, and erotic-writing otaku.
Yan Yin didn't expect that Xiao Qingque's nature would be like this.
When she chose to submit to Shen Cheng and was ready to assist Xiao Qingque and turn her into a true wise leader, Xiao Qingque actually started to act badly.
The previous image of being uncontrollably smart seemed to be just an illusion. From a scheming and strategic princess, she instantly degenerated into a person who stayed at home every day and didn't like to go out. Slacking off was her true nature.
Yan Yin almost thought that Xiao Qingque had been possessed by someone, so she hurried to find Shen Cheng to ask about the situation, but the only thing she got was "Don't bother with her."
Later, after an in-depth communication, Yan Yin finally understood Xiao Qingque's inner thoughts - her cleverness and hard work when she just became a princess were entirely out of self-protection. She was afraid that she would be sold out by Shen Cheng or Yan Yin, so she was forced to show her side that was not easy to mess with.
It was not until Yan Yin surrendered to Shen Cheng and the danger was over that Xiao Qingque's true nature was naturally revealed and he no longer wanted to try.
Fortunately, Xiao Qingque only needed to be a totem, and the specific work was done by others, so her poor performance did not cause much impact. It only harmed the nobles who had invested in Xiao Qingque.
She gave up everything and handed all the power back to Yan Yin, and the nobles immediately lost all their investment.
Looking at Xiao Qingque who was addicted to playing cards, Yan Yin sighed in his heart. Is it necessary for him to serve such a superior for the rest of his life?
She turned her head to look at the clouds passing by outside the military plane and the unfamiliar land below, and her depressed mood improved again.
After all, the war was about to end, and she stood as the victor.
After the Baiye Kingdom and the King of Qin formed an alliance, they fought several large-scale battles with Yongle City in just half a year.
Yongle City undoubtedly suffered a crushing defeat. On the one hand, their tolerance for casualties had reached its limit. In the early stages, they attacked the Qin Kingdom regardless of casualties, and in the later stages, they had to fight a large-scale battle with the Allied forces.
Even if tens of millions of reservists were deployed, victory would not be achieved. Instead, the collapse would be accelerated, because the Allied forces had the upper hand in both manpower and material resources.
On the other hand, due to Shen Cheng's long-range micro-management, Yongle City made serious mistakes in strategy and tactics many times. Even if the soldiers fought bravely, they could not change the outcome of defeat.
After the last battle, Yongle City was doomed to fail. At this time, Shen Cheng needed to come out and turn the tide, just like he killed Wang Ju half a year ago.
As long as the supreme leader of the Allied Forces can be killed, Yongle City will be able to turn the defeat around.
But at this critical moment, a piece of news came from Yongle City. It turned out that Shen Cheng (Yu Feng) was also seriously injured when he defeated Wang Ju. On the surface, he was pretending to be fine, but in fact, he was at the end of his life.
Shen Cheng even cooperated in acting out a play, fighting a fierce battle with Yan Yin on the battlefield, and then fled back to Yongle City with serious injuries.
As soon as he fled, the army of Yongle City collapsed completely, just like the Qin Wang's army half a year ago.
The organized army laid down their weapons and surrendered. Even the generals did not object. They had long been tortured to death by Shen Cheng's remote micro-control. When they surrendered, they even felt a sense of pleasure in revenge against Shen Cheng. Of course, there was no shortage of diehards in any force, and the same was true for Yongle City. However, these diehards either died on the battlefield or were eliminated by Shen Cheng, and could not cause any trouble.
Finally, under Shen Cheng's order, Yongle City surrendered to the Allied Forces, and Yan Yin naturally returned the favor and would not settle accounts with the middle and upper levels.
Exactly ten months had passed from the time Shen Cheng declared war on the other two forces in Yongle City to the time he issued the surrender order in Yongle City.
This large-scale civil war, which involved three major forces, nearly 200 million people, and nearly 10 million casualties, has finally come to an end.
Countless contradictions were eliminated in the war, and countless warmongers who had once boasted of wanting war became silent and terrified at the very mention of war.
At least in their generation, war will not break out again.
After the collective surrender of Yongle City, Xiao Qingque, the Allied Marshal, and Yan Yin, the supreme commander, naturally had to set foot in Yongle City as victors.
At the same time, he also had to give a speech to the people of Yongle City to calm their panic.
Massacres are even more impossible. Although the three major forces have been separated for a long time, they all belong to the Eternal Empire in essence and name, and are all brothers and sisters connected by blood.
The military plane quickly landed at the airport near Yongle City, where a large number of senior generals had been waiting for a long time.
When she appeared in front of everyone, Xiao Qingque returned to her dignified and noble princess image. Accompanied by Yan Yin and Ning Qing, she greeted everyone and finally boarded a military vehicle.
Yongle City had already arranged for countless ordinary people to gather on both sides of the road to welcome Xiao Qingque's arrival.
Yan Yin sat in the car, looking at the people on both sides of the road outside through the window.
These people waved flags in their hands with forced smiles on their faces, but their eyes were filled with confusion and sadness about the future.
As troop carriers drove by, the Allied soldiers on board raised their chins with pride, in stark contrast to the people below.
Xiao Qingque and his group quickly arrived at the Toy City and communicated with the officials of the newly-elected Yongle City Provisional Government in preparation for the speech that would be given later.
The current Yongle City government is composed of a group of weak peace advocates. The war advocates have either died in battle or stepped down. The culprit, Shen Cheng, disappeared after announcing his surrender, and no one has ever seen him since.
Many people believed that Shen Cheng (Yu Feng) was dead, but his servants were still alive, so the most likely possibility was that he had fled for fear of being punished.
Shen Cheng (Yu Feng) has completely turned from a glory to a shame for Yongle City, especially his poor performance in the war and his escape afterwards.
Now when people in Yongle City mention the name Yu Feng, their expressions are full of disgust and their words are even more contemptuous.
The blame for starting the war was completely put on Yu Feng. The people would not think that it was their fanatical support for the war that led to the outbreak of the war, but would only think that they were deceived by Yu Feng.
The speech began soon, and the location was exactly where Shen Cheng declared war on the other two forces ten months ago.
Although Xiao Qingque is in a bad state now, she did not slack off in her speech and even displayed her public speaking talent perfectly.
The people of Yongle City were successfully calmed down and no longer panicked or worried about the future.
At the end of the speech, countless people gathered in the square cheered and shouted to Xiao Qingque to express their support for her.
This scene made Yan Yin feel as if she had returned to the Baiye Kingdom and the Qin King Territory. No matter where Xiao Qingque gave her speech, she would always be able to gain strong support from the people in the end. Her fans now surpassed anyone else and were spread across the entire Eternal Empire.
What made Yan Yin look dazed was not only that, but also that her dream of many years was finally coming true.
The divided Eternal Empire is finally about to return to unity.
The Baiye Kingdom swallowed up the millions of troops of the Qin Wang Territory in one gulp and kept them firmly under its control during the war. The current provisional government of the Qin Wang Territory is simply unable to resist.
As the only defeated city, Yongle City, although they were promised that they would not be liquidated, from the moment they laid down their arms, they could no longer stop any decision made by Yan Yin.
The victorious Baiye Kingdom became the only winner, and naturally took the opportunity to advance the unification process.
However, Yan Yin was not so arrogant as to allow Baiye Kingdom to blatantly encroach on the two forces. If they dared to do so, they would definitely fight to the death.
The approach adopted by Yan Yin was to directly abolish the three major forces and then form a central government in which each party could participate.
This approach of dividing the fruits of victory equally was naturally strongly supported by the Qin King and Yongle City.
Yan Yin did not suffer any loss by doing this, because she became the one who cut the cake, and she had the final say on how much to cut.
She is also confident that she can eliminate dissidents, seize power, turn the central government into the only legitimate regime, and make the three major forces a thing of the past.
While Xiao Qingque was giving his speech, Shen Cheng, who was considered a deserter in the eyes of countless people, did not leave Yongle City, but came to the underground space of the Toy City.
He has returned to his original appearance and is no longer holding Yu Feng's face. Even if he walks on the street now, he doesn't have to worry about being chased by everyone like a rat crossing the street.
Shen Cheng has perfectly fulfilled his promise, resolving the war within a year and restoring the unity of the Eternal Empire.
Returning to this place at this moment is just to solve the last small hidden danger.
In the underground space, the huge pyramid was still there. Shen Cheng opened the hole on the top that he had sealed, and his split body jumped out from it, carrying a tightly wrapped metal sphere.
The real Yu Feng is here. In order to legitimately seize the power of Yongle City, Shen Cheng has to impersonate Yu Feng's identity. The real Yu Feng can only be hidden here.
Now that everything is over, it's time to send Yu Feng on his way to reunite with Jin Yan, lest he runs out alive and talks nonsense everywhere.
After opening the metal ball, Yu Feng rolled out and immediately launched a sneak attack on Shen Cheng who was nearby.
During these ten months, Shen Cheng's split body has been watching over Yu Feng. Whenever his strength recovers, he will attack and seriously injure him again.
But Yu Feng is not an ordinary person after all. Even though he was seriously injured, he was still quietly accumulating strength just to wait for this moment.
Yu Feng believed that since Shen Cheng did not kill him but imprisoned him, he would definitely appear again.
Yu Feng's prediction was not wrong. The only mistake was that the strength he had accumulated for a full ten months was like a mantis waving its claws in Shen Cheng's eyes, showing its fangs and claws but posing no threat at all.
Yu Feng, who pounced on him, was instantly restrained by Shen Cheng's mental power. His sharp claws stopped twenty centimeters in front of Shen Cheng and could not get any closer.
