Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

A month later.

Prun's side released a video and audio recording.

The footage and conversations depict a secret meeting between Glenn President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, Lancy President Christy Brandon, and Plen President Violet Algernon.

The video and audio recordings clearly show the scene of Glenn President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lancy President Christy Brandon lobbying Plen President Violet Algernon to participate in the "Four-Nation Project".

In the video released by Prun, Glenn President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lancy President Christy Brandon took turns speaking in a passionate and ambitious manner, elaborating on the "bright" future of the Western Roman Empire's four-nation structure.

The language used was so blunt that it completely disregarded those small Western Roman countries!

However, Váollet Algernon, the president of Prun, who is known as the "madman of Ciro," surprisingly showed his "righteous" side in the face of the "Four-Nation Plan."

Despite the lobbying efforts of Glenn President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lancy President Christy Brandon, who all offered incredibly generous post-war benefits to Prun, the situation remained unchanged.

However, Prun President Violet Algernon remained unmoved in the end.

They also questioned the "Quad Plan" proposed by Dickens Cecil and others—a plan that was clearly built on the premise of harming the alliance's allies.

This is a serious violation of the principles of the Western Alliance—how can you betray your allies!

Although at the end of the conversation, President Violet Algernon of Plen did not explicitly reject the "Four-Nation Plan" proposed by Dickens Cecil and others.

However, they did not agree.

Furthermore, after Prun President Vaolet Algernon stated that she would give a final reply after careful consideration, she repeatedly reminded the Georgian Union, Dunley, and Lansey to also carefully consider the feasibility of the "Four-Nation Plan".

The implication is quite clear.

In short, based on the leaked information, Glenn president Dickens Cecil, Dunley president Pete Andre, and Lansey president Christy Brandon are all complete villains.

Meanwhile, Plump president Violet Algernon became a representative of conscience who upheld "justice" and adhered to ethical principles.

This incident, once exposed, immediately caused a huge uproar throughout the entire Western Roman world.

The entire Western Luo Alliance was shaken!

Glenn, Dunley, and Lanxi immediately became the public enemy of the entire Western Roman Empire.

Glenn's president Dickens Cecil, Dunley's president Pete Andre, and Lancy's president Christy Brandon all became targets of public criticism in West Rome.

The people of Xiluo took to the streets to burn photos and mannequins bearing the names of Glenn President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lancy President Christy Brandon.

Meanwhile, the embassies of the Grenadiers, Dunli, and Lanxi in the Western Roman countries were also surrounded by angry crowds.

In many places, the people of Xiluo even stormed the embassy to vent their anger through concrete actions.

Meanwhile, within the Great Northern League, Dunley, and Lancy, inappropriate remarks by Great Northern League President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lancy President Christy Brandon have sparked a wave of opposition.

In an instant, calls grew louder and louder within the Great Northern Union, Dunley, and Lancy for the removal of Dickens Cecil, Pete Andre, and Christy Brandon from their positions as presidents and for them to be prosecuted for war crimes.

The presidential residences of the three companies—Gelian, Dunley, and Lanxi—were practically turned into stinking garbage dumps by the rotten eggs thrown at them.

For Glenn Union President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lancy President Christy Brandon, the public outcry has become irreversible.

However, Dickens Cecil and others were unwilling to relinquish power so easily.

Although they knew that the leak of this matter must have been a conspiracy by the Puren people.

They have clearly fallen into a trap set by Violet Algernon!

However, faced with the publicly available video evidence, Dickens Cecil and others understood that no matter how much they tried to deny or whitewash their actions, it would be futile.

Their explanations seem pale and powerless in the face of the released footage.

Just when Dickens Cecil and his two companions were in a complete mess.

The Pulun people, who had planned this all along, stepped forward once again.

President Violet Algernon of Prun publicly announced on behalf of Prun that, in order to maintain internal harmony and long-term peace on the continent of Xiluo, Prun is withdrawing from the Xiluo Alliance led by the Gelsen, Dunli, and Lanxi, effective immediately.

At the same time, it was announced that a punitive organization had been established.

Violet Algernon passionately and indignantly reiterated Prun's attitude and stance on the "Four-Nation Plan".

Violet Algernon made no secret of comparing the Grenfell, Dunley, and Lancy to black sheep that seriously jeopardized the peace of the Western Roman Empire.

He frankly stated that the existence of Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi would inevitably become a malignant tumor that could drag the entire Western Continent into the abyss at any time!

As a member of the Western Continent, Pulen would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.

This was also the original intention behind Prun's announcement of the establishment of the punitive organization.

President Violet Algernon of Prun immediately called on the Western Roman states that were unwilling to be oppressed and annexed to join the crusade.

This time, Pulun will stand firmly on the side of "justice" and do what they should do for the future of the entire Xiluo Continent!

On the very day the crusade was founded, thanks to the highly inflammatory and inspiring speech by President Violet Algernon, two-thirds of the Western Roman states officially declared their willingness to become members of the crusade and fight to defend justice.

The Western Luo Alliance became defunct with the establishment of the punitive organization.

Because after Prun announced his withdrawal from the Western Roma alliance, other Western Roma countries followed suit.

In just one day, the Western Roman Union was reduced to only three member states: Georgia, Dunley, and Lancy...

the other side.

The capital region—the highest command headquarters of the Great Qian Dynasty.

"Tell Pulun that they need not worry, that we in Daqian would never take advantage of someone in distress."

Looking at the summary of the situation in Xiluo in his hand, Shen Moshen instructed his assistant, "Our Great Qian has always placed the utmost importance on the spirit of contracts and the highest level of trustworthiness."

“Since we agreed when the ceasefire was reached that as long as the Western Luo side does not provoke a conflict, our Great Qian will absolutely not interfere in the internal affairs of the Western Luo.”

"Now, their conflicts with the Gelians, Dunli, and Lanxi are 'domestic affairs' in their Xiro world."

“We will naturally not interfere, much less take advantage of the internal strife in Xiluo to take military action.”

"Chief, it seems the Pulun people are up to something big this time!" Ge Daqiang said gleefully. "It's no surprise that the leaked video footage was the work of the Pulun people."

"Vaolete Algernon's move was really cunning!"

"At the same time, the Greenmen, the Dunlimen, and the Lanximen were all trapped."

"I think—Greece Union President Dickens Cecil, Dunley President Pete Andre, and Lansey President Christy Brandon are definitely doomed this time."

"Forget about keeping his CEO position, he'll probably end up in jail!"

"I really didn't expect Algernon to pull such a trick on the Grenadiers, Dunli, and Lanxi people."

"It seems our previous analysis was absolutely correct—among the presidents of the Western Luo Kingdoms, President Violet Algernon of Prun is definitely the most insidious one!"

"However, there is one question I don't quite understand—Algernon has already decided to take this opportunity to completely eliminate the Grenians, Dunli, and Lanxi people."

"Then why didn't Algernon agree to our secret 'East-West Plan' that we proposed to them first?"

"If the Prun people agree to our proposed 'East-West Plan,' they will at least be able to deal with the Gren, Dunli, and Lanxi with more peace of mind, right?"

"This is precisely where Algernon's shrewdness and prudence lie."

Shen Moshen smiled and said, "There are no secrets that stay hidden forever!"

"Algernon's goal is very clear now—to take this opportunity to eliminate the three biggest threats to their dominance of the Western Continent."

"Therefore, everything that Prun is doing now is to achieve this goal as smoothly as possible, so that the other Western Luo countries will follow them wholeheartedly to fight against the Gelian, Dunli and Lanxi people."

"Algernon did not agree to our plan because he was afraid that if this matter were to be leaked, the Western Luo countries that had joined the crusade would turn against them, thus thwarting their plans to deal with the Gelian, Dunli, and Lanxi people."

"Algernon didn't want to leave this hidden danger as an opportunity for their plans to become more unpredictable."

"It seems that President Violet Algernon of Prun is more difficult to deal with than we imagined."

"If Algernon's Plen truly becomes the absolute overlord of the Western Continent, or if they establish a unified Western Continent........."

"This situation is definitely not a good thing for our Great Qian Dynasty."

"The chief's idea is—we should sit back and watch the show."

"Let's first adopt an attitude of indifference, that the Great Qian will never interfere in Xiluo's 'family affairs,' and create public opinion!"

Following Shen Moshen's train of thought, Ge Daqiang continued, "It would be best to make the Western Luo countries believe that we will definitely abide by the rules of the game on this issue."

"However, when the situation in Xiluo develops to a certain point—we will seize the opportunity and act decisively when the time is right!"

“Perfect!” Shen Moshen smiled. “What we need to do now is to do everything we can to put the Pulun people at ease with us.”

"So that they can focus more on dealing with the Grenadiers, the Dunli, and the Lanxi."

"It's quite obvious—Algernon is still quite wary of our Daqian side."

Shen Moshen pointed to the map on the wall and said, "I heard that the Pulun people have increased their garrison in the area bordering the Shaluo Protectorate and Bola."

"At this critical moment when they are about to engage in a life-or-death struggle with the Gelug, Dunli, and Lanxi, the Prun people have also mobilized a large number of troops to the Bola region."

"This is clearly a precaution against our Great Qian Zhenguo Army..."

"Sigh..." Shen Moshen sighed, "Why is trust between people so easily tested?"

“We have repeatedly stated that we will never interfere in Xiluo’s ‘family affairs,’ but the Pulun people are still doing this. This shows that they have a prejudice against us!”

"Although the Prun army is formidable in combat, the Gren, Dunli, and Lanxi, as long-established military powers on the Western Luo Continent, are definitely not to be underestimated!"

"At such a crucial moment, the people of Pulun were actually distracted!"

Shen Moshen shook his head: "That won't do. It would be bad if the Prun people were distracted by their defenses against us and it affected their campaigns against the Gren, Dunli, and Lanxi."

"What the chief means is..." Ge Daqiang immediately understood: "To help the Pulun people? To let them focus?"

"However, President Violet Algernon of Prun is quite cautious in this regard."

"How about we reduce the number of troops stationed in the Sharo Protectorate bordering Bola, so that Algeron can see our sincerity in not interfering in the 'internal affairs' of the Western Luo?"

“Even if we withdraw all our troops from the border region, Algeron will not be able to completely put his mind at ease with us.”

Shen Moshen thought for a moment and said, "How about this?"

“Let’s make some arrangements—we’ll put on a show for Xiluo’s side.”

"put on a show?"

“Yes! It’s an act!” Shen Moshen nodded: “We’ll create the illusion that there are rebel forces in the Protectorate General’s office launching an armed rebellion.”

"Let the Xiluo side think that our Great Qian has not yet completely stabilized the unified situation of Qianzhou."

"Undercurrents are swirling; a major crisis has erupted in Qianzhou..."

"We just need to make them think that we in the Great Qian Dynasty are too busy to deal with our own domestic affairs and have no time to bother with the chaos in Xiluo."

"Only then can the Xiluo people focus on this battle with peace of mind, and the Pulun people can lower their guard against us and thus concentrate more troops and energy on the Faglian, Dunli, and Lanxi people."

"The infighting between the two sides in Xiluo is giving us a real headache!"

Shen Moshen smiled with obvious difficulty: "This is all we can do to help them..."
