Chapter 251 Arrested
The current war with Huayue Kingdom relies solely on the military and economic power accumulated by this country over the past hundred years.
This seemingly powerful force will eventually run out of power.
Just like now, the Qingshan Battle in the Liuli Islands is constantly consuming the vitality of the Riyuan Kingdom.
This was actually a war controlled by Takeda Nagayoshi.
Takeda Nagayoshi's betrayal led to the recapture of the Bi Bo Sea, and also completely shattered the dream of the Sun Yuan Kingdom to quickly occupy the two sea areas and then digest and enhance its strength on the spot.
The ongoing battle of Liuli Islands is like a meat grinder.
The once very powerful army of the Riyuan Kingdom was like a sugarcane inserted into a juicer. It was crushed section by section and finally turned into useless waste.

On the other hand, the economic strength of Huayue Kingdom has been thoroughly stimulated.
When this economic advantage gradually transforms into military productivity.
Even the famous military figure of the Riyuan Kingdom, Sawadidi, was at a loss as to what to do.
He put in a lot of effort and relied on the "turtle retreat method" to barely achieve a draw with the Huayue Kingdom on Qingshan Island.
However, the price behind this is that the domestic economy of the Riyuan Kingdom is on the brink of collapse.
Today, almost all of Japan’s domestic productivity is serving the military manufacturing industry.
More than 80% of ordinary private enterprises were either taken over by the military or closed down.
If other countries in the Blood Alliance had not provided a large amount of military assistance to the Riyuan Kingdom, this stalemate battle would probably have been unable to continue.
At the same time, the surrounding situation is not optimistic.
News from the intelligence department shows that several small countries surrounding the Riyuan Kingdom have frequent military activities and heavily deployed troops on their borders.
As soon as the Riyuan Kingdom shows signs of fatigue, they will pounce on them like hungry wolves and tear off a piece of flesh.
Despite the dire situation, Macbeth, the emperor of the Japanese Empire, continued to wage war on his own, seemingly having been blinded by Takeda Nagayoshi's betrayal.
He seemed to have forgotten that the entire human society is at a delicate moment where conflict could break out at any time between national organizations headed by two superpowers.
If the Riyuan Kingdom and the Huayue Kingdom continue to fight, the fuse of the world war may really be ignited here.
Thinking of this, the second prince Dennis couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
He looked greedily at the flashing neon lights in the city outside the window, and gently stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to catch those colorful lights in his hands.
"Will we be the fuse?" Dennis murmured to himself, his heart filled with endless worry and confusion.

Just as the second prince Dennis was looking out the window with his thoughts in a state of confusion, a secret conversation between the emperor and his advisers was quietly unfolding in the old palace not far away.
"As long as I can defeat Abraham, the bastard who betrayed me, I will do it even if it means I become the fuse of a world war!"
Emperor Macbeth of the Sun Yuan Kingdom sat on the dragon throne, his tone revealing a hint of excitement and determination.
The counselor Mr. Minglang standing before him hunched his back slightly, listening respectfully to the emperor's heartfelt words.
"I am the ninth generation emperor of the Mike family. I will not allow our family's rule to be destroyed in my hands."
Macbeth's voice was cold and firm, but his face was flushed with an unnatural blush. He paused and continued:
"In the next stage, we will increase our efforts to request military assistance from other countries, even at the cost of sacrificing some domestic interests."
Mr. Minglang frowned when he heard this and asked hesitantly:
"Your Majesty, Sawadidi is from the Lanshu Empire after all, and this time they have also sent a very generous support plan."
"But I still have some doubts. If there are no sufficient benefits, why would they invest so much money?"
Emperor Macbeth snorted coldly, with a mocking arc at the corner of his mouth:
"Think about it first. How many things have you done for the eldest prince Steve, openly or secretly?"
"If you figure this out, you will understand. As the teacher of the second prince Dennis, how much will Sawadidi do for Dennis?"
"If Savadidi can help his disciple become the emperor of the Riyuan Kingdom, it will be of great benefit to both him and the Lanshu Empire to which he is loyal."
"What's more, all the countries in our entire Blood Alliance are on the same boat. If we can't hold on and Huayue Nation takes back the Liuli Islands, what will happen next?"
"You still want peace at this time? That's simply a huge joke!"

Having said this, Macbeth suddenly stood up from his seat and strode to the huge world map hanging on the wall.
He carefully examined every corner of the map and said slowly:
"Sawadidi is a smart man. He must have realized that the current war not only concerns whether his disciple Dennis can successfully become the heir to the throne, but also whether the start time of the war for the entire Blood Alliance can be controlled in his own hands."
"More profoundly, this is also about how much benefit they can get in the next phase of the world war."
“Therefore, in the next battle, Sawadidi will definitely go all out.”
"If he cannot gather troops for Dennis on Qingshan Island and buy enough time, then he will find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Lanshu Empire, which is full of famous generals."
At this point, Macbeth sneered softly a few times, and there was a hint of complacency and sarcasm in his laughter, as if he was very satisfied with his analysis of the current situation.
Mr. Minglang behind him lowered his head, thinking secretly in his heart.
He knew very well that the emperor was always good at using one bait after another to lure those smart-minded people to show off in front of him like a peacock spreading its feathers.
In fact, the emperor's favorite thing was to go behind the peacocks and look at their naked and ugly buttocks.
The reason why Mr. Minglang can stand here and become the emperor's close minister is because he knows very well that he cannot be clever.
The emperor in front of him would see through all the little tricks he used in many things.
He understood that serving the emperor was like serving a tiger, and only by remaining humble and cautious could he gain a foothold in this vortex of power.
In general, it can be summed up in three words - don't play with fire.

Come to think of it, Macbeth is really a master!
He simply offered up the position of heir to the throne, and so many people were drawn to it, showing off their feathers and vying for it.
His own disciple Steve, plus Sawadidi's disciple Dennis, even Alex and McTornado, and perhaps all the upper-class people of the Riyuan Kingdom.
Emperor Macbeth used this bloody bait and gently stirred it, creating a huge whirlpool in the fish pond.
And now, everyone is struggling in this vortex, following Macbeth's baton up and down, unable to extricate themselves.
"You should withdraw now. You must hurry up to meet with the Blood Alliance's special envoy. And you must hurry up to handle that matter as well. You must not let anyone else find out."
Macbeth's words interrupted Mr. Clear's thoughts.
Mr. Minglang bowed slightly to the emperor, then took two steps back, turned around and walked out of the emperor's study.
The automatic door slowly closed. Mr. Minglang stood at the door, took two deep breaths, and calmed himself down.
Then, he walked gently towards the long, wide yet slightly depressing corridor in front of him.
After thinking about it for a while, Mr. Minglang couldn't help but sigh:
"Macbeth, you seem to be certain that no one in this world can deceive you."
"But you were ultimately fooled by Abraham, also known as Takeda Nagayoshi."
"This has become a demon in your heart. In the final analysis, the Sun Kite Kingdom was dragged into a war of attrition with the Flower Moon Kingdom by Abraham."
"Is it more likely that the vortex you have stirred up now is because you are unwilling to give up? Or have you begun to stop trusting anyone?"
As the footsteps faded away, the sensor lights went out one by one, and the corridor became completely dark again.
It was as if the ray of light just now had never existed.
Mr. Minglang's figure gradually disappeared in the darkness, leaving only deep thoughts and endless mysteries echoing in this long corridor.

As expected, on this dark night, "Qin Xinghe" was arrested.
