Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

Shen Moshen's first press conference in the capital can be summed up in four words: domineering and awe-inspiring!

After the press conference, major newspapers rushed to publish the news.

That afternoon, the urgent editions of newspapers from major newspapers in the capital spread throughout the city.

Meanwhile, Imperial Broadcasting also relayed the grand occasion of the press conference.

Shen Moshen's nationwide electrification was also announced on the same day.

For a time, the entire Great Qian Empire was abuzz with discussion because of Shen Moshen's completely unconventional actions.

The people most affected were naturally the military governors of the various provinces.

Because Shen Moshen's actions were tantamount to issuing them a direct order to be laid off within a specified period!

Among the many warlords at the level of military governor, Zhuo Yongwang, who controlled five provinces, was the most affected.

At this moment, Zhuo Yongwang, who had just returned to Jizhou Province with his large army after a long journey, learned of Shen Moshen's announcement of the abolition of the military governorship. He immediately convened an emergency meeting with all the main generals of the five-province allied forces....................

However, the news that Shen Moshen had transferred 200 million Youzhou troops from Youzhou to take over the defense of various provinces was released.

Although the provincial governors wished they could curse Shen Moshen's ancestors a hundred and eighty times over in their hearts and mouths.

However, unlike when Xie Kangnian declared himself emperor, this time no one dared to formally comment on Shen Moshen's announcement of the abolition of the military governorship system through telegrams or other public means.

Back when Xie Kangnian declared himself emperor with the support of countries like Georgian.

The anti-rebel army was quickly formed.

Furthermore, the provincial governors in the anti-rebel army camp also openly and forcefully engaged in a series of public opinion battles with Xie Kangnian's faction!

But now, faced with Shen Moshen's threat to directly destroy the livelihoods of the entire warlord circle, not a single warlord dares to stand up and openly utter a single strong word...

However, you can't blame them for being cowardly.

After all, Shen Moshen had just announced a series of reform measures.

That afternoon, groups of B-29 aircraft from the Youzhou army appeared over many provinces.

They are still using the same intimidation and threat approach, which aims to kill without destroying the spirit.

In some provincial capitals, spectacular scenes unfolded with a deluge of leaflets raining down from the sky.................

To paraphrase Chen Maoxue, the military governor of Pingzhou, it was like this: "I was fishing in the pond in the backyard of the governor's mansion when a leaflet fell from the sky and hit me in the face!"

Thank goodness they were just throwing flyers...

If it had been a bomb, Chen Xuemao, the military governor of Pingzhou, would probably have been blown to smithereens along with the pond in his backyard.................

Now, more and more people are pondering one question—just how many planes does the Youzhou army have?

-------------------------------------

Kedah, the capital of Kedah Province.

"That guy surnamed Shen isn't going to leave us any way out at all!"

"According to their logic—even if we were to incorporate our troops, they might not even want them!"

Zhuo Yongwang looked furious, clearly infuriated by Shen Moshen's actions.

"I've already voluntarily given up the capital, admitted my mistake, and apologized, and he's still not satisfied!"

"That's incredibly arrogant! They want to take down all the provincial governors right off the bat!"

"He's weakening our power!"

"Bastard! This guy surnamed Shen really thinks he's the master of the Great Qian Dynasty!"

"Your words are even better than your singing..."

"Using the name of revitalizing the Great Qian Dynasty is actually paving the way for him to become emperor! By weakening the warlords in various regions, no one will be able to threaten him anymore."

"Pah! Hypocrite! Petty person!" Zhuo Yongwang spat on the ground to express his endless contempt for Shen Moshen.

"Shen Moshen is really cunning! I could hear the sound of his abacus all the way back in Jicheng!"

"They spout grand theories about national righteousness! But in the end, aren't they just after their own selfish interests?"

"That guy surnamed Shen is even more disgusting than Xie Kangnian with his high-profile singing!"

As he spoke, Zhuo Yongwang swept his gaze over everyone: "Tell me what you all think! They're clearly not giving us a way out, what are we going to do!"

"General, I think—since that man surnamed Shen is determined to drive us to a dead end, then we have no reason to hesitate!"

Wu Huaiyu, chief of staff of the five-province allied forces, spoke first: "If you ask me, let's go all the way and simply declare our secession from the Great Qian and change the flag among the five provinces!"

"Isn't Shen Moshen going to abolish the military governorship system in the Great Qian Dynasty?"

"Now that we've broken away from the Great Qian Dynasty, this matter has nothing to do with us anymore!"

"Anyway, we're quite far from the capital."

"Shen Moshen won't be able to get here anytime soon!"

"Besides—we have the Salo people and the Yi people behind us."

"Although the Salo people and the Yi people are now in quite a bit of trouble themselves."

"But our territory borders the Salo region!"

"Moreover, the Shaluo and Yi Kingdoms have always been very supportive of our decision to break away from the Great Qian Dynasty."

Wu Huaiyu paused for a moment, then continued, "We have been operating in the five provinces of Jizhou for so many years, and we can always ask for outside help."

"I refuse to believe that Shen Moshen's Youzhou army can sweep through us like they did when they attacked Jinzhou and Gaohe provinces!"

"The Youzhou army is quite formidable; we don't deny that."

"However, after breaking away from the Great Qian Dynasty, we can immediately form an offensive and defensive alliance with the Shaluo and Yi Kingdoms as an independent nation."

"In this way, even if the Youzhou army really attacks, Shaluo and Yi Kingdom can directly send troops to intervene."

Wu Huaiyu said in a deep voice, "I don't believe that Shen Moshen's Youzhou army can be stronger than the troops of the Salo people and the Yi people!"
