Chapter 103 Discussion
Lin Shan sat below, listening to Zhang Zhonghua slowly introduce the current situation.
"The Cat Clan was divided into two parts for unknown reasons, the Warring Faction and the Harmony Faction. A year ago, the Harmony Faction turned into a vassal faction. They hoped that the human race could become a vassal of the Cat Clan, and they took the initiative to offer clan weapons to the cats. If the tribe devours it, they will set aside a small area in the cat tribe’s territory for the humans to survive. We need to obey the cat tribe’s management and hand over half of the annual harvest as taxes.”
Lin Shan listened expressionlessly and did not interrupt, waiting for Zhang Zhonghua's next words.
After taking a breath, Zhang Zhonghua continued:
"Of course we can't agree to this, we can only drag it with them. We learned from the Cat Clan before, selected extraordinary human righteous men, and attacked the Cat Clan's territory. We wanted to use this to put pressure on the Cat Clan, negotiate with the Cat Clan, and sign a contract. A treaty not to harm civilians."
"But who would have thought that at this time, the vassal faction would stop us. They came to negotiate with us and said that if we continued to massacre their civilians, their faction would also end up."
"As a result, we can only be forced to stop the action. We can hardly stop the main war faction alone. If the vassal faction comes to an end again, we have almost no hope. Now they can only send Chao Chao to massacre human civilians, but we are Don’t dare to make the slightest move.”
Zhang Zhonghua clenched his fists loudly, but he was filled with anger but had no place to vent it.
After listening to Zhang Zhonghua's words, Lin Shan thought for a while and said calmly:
"Have you ever thought that there is no hope in the first place? Let's not talk about whether we can defeat the main war faction. If the main war faction is really about to lose, the vassal faction will definitely end. They are essentially a clan and cannot be because of internal fighting. As for us, the vassal faction is just watching the show. They know that the main battle faction will definitely win, but they will not win too easily. They are just using us to consume the strength of the main battle faction. "
After a pause, he continued:
"And these two factions are definitely not just as simple as the main war faction and the vassal one. They should represent the two political powers of the Cat Clan. The main war faction wants to take over the human race and use their contributions to unify the cat tribe. The vassal faction wants to wait for the main war faction to be weak and take the opportunity to seize power. , after this battle, no matter what the outcome is, the cat tribe will definitely be reunited."
The reason for this speculation is that the last time he met Sha Shali, Sha Shali mentioned the split of the cat tribe's political power to him. As for why she told him, an outsider... maybe it was just a back-up she left behind, in case the human race She can only use the backhand if she really wins. If the human race has no strength, naturally everything will be in vain.
"We all know what you are talking about. We have been fighting with the Cat Clan for so long, and there are secrets within the Cat Clan that we have sent to them, but sometimes it doesn't mean that we can find a solution if we know about it." Zhang Zhonghua said with a bitter smile.
Then he looked at Lin Shan and said seriously: "Since you are back, tell me your opinions. We are just discussing the next countermeasures to deal with the cat tribe. Because of the disagreement, the two groups have been in a stalemate for a month."
After a moment of silence, Lin Shan said, "I just came back. I don't have any opinions to give you. I might as well tell you your opinions."
This meeting may seem like an understatement, but it determines the future of the human race. The lives of millions of people are tied to them. This kind of pressure makes every decision they make full of difficulties. If they make a wrong step, the consequences will be huge. It will be devastating.
Everyone nodded and returned to their seats, while Lin Shan sat aside and listened quietly.
Zhao Xiaoan was the first to speak, "My opinion will not change. I will continue to send Chaofan to sneak into the cat clan city, put pressure on them, and force them to sign a treaty not to harm civilians!"
Zhang Zhonghua said solemnly, "What you do will only bring more casualties. Once the vassals are gone, the situation that was finally stabilized on the front line will quickly collapse."
Zhao Xiaoan suddenly stood up from his seat and shouted at Zhang Zhonghua, "You call stability obtained by sacrificing the lives of civilians in the city?"
Facing Zhao Xiaoan's anger, Zhang Zhonghua remained unmoved and just said calmly:
"If the frontline collapses quickly, do you think the safety of the civilians in the city can still be guaranteed? We have established an extraordinary team to protect civilians in the city. As long as the cats dare to come, they will never come back."
Zhao Xiaoan sat down again, slumped on the chair, looked at the top of the tent, his eyes were confused and murmured:
"This is exchanging the lives of the civilians in the city for the extraordinary lives of the cat people."
Zhang Zhonghua clasped his hands and said seriously:
"In a sense, this is worth it. Not only can it exchange for extraordinary lives, but it can also maintain the stability of the front line and buy time for the human race."
"We need time, and we need to deal with the two factions of the Cat Clan. We cannot easily break this balance. Because of the fear of the relationship between the vassal faction, the main war faction does not dare to attack us with all its strength. Once the vassal faction ends, it will be all over. The faction is using us, and we are using them."
Chen Liyun interjected:
"Then have you ever thought that there is actually no point in procrastinating. If we lose, we will lose. But if we win, the vassals will still end up, and we will still lose by then."
He is on Zhao Xiaoan's side. Instead of dragging it slowly, it is better to be more harsh. Even if he loses in the end, there is still a way to migrate and he will not really be exterminated. But if he keeps dragging it on, If a frog is boiled in warm water, there may not even be a way out.
"If we can defeat the main war faction, why can't we continue to defeat the vassal faction? It is better to defeat them one by one than to face two forces."
Xia Xuan said from the side that she supported Zhang Zhonghua's opinion.
"Where are the others?" Lin Shan asked, "Why are there only the four of you here?"
As the strongest fighting force of the human race, the pioneers should be on the front line at this time.
"They should be in their respective military tents. After the previous meetings, they chose to remain neutral. No matter what the result is, they will support it." Zhang Zhonghua said.
"Hmm..." Lin Shan was silent for a while, not knowing what to say. In fact, both sides were right, but from the perspective of the pioneers, for the sake of the human race, Zhang Zhonghua was actually more right, but it was too aggrieved.
"Does the cat tribe have Sequence 8?"
Skipping the heavy topic, Lin Shan asked again.
"No." Zhang Zhonghua said affirmatively, "So, your return has given the human race, which originally had no advantages, an advantage in peak combat power."
"Two fists cannot beat four hands, Sequence 8 is not truly invincible." Lin Shan said calmly. He was still clear about this. It was impossible for him to become a Sequence 8 and rush over to destroy the cat tribe alone. "However, it is still possible to cause some damage with surprising difficulty."
"Is there a big gap between the two extraordinary people?"
"There is not much difference in peak combat power. The pioneers are now all at the peak of Sequence 9. For some reason, there are not many Sequence 9 peak people in the cat tribe, but the number of ordinary extraordinary people in the cat tribe is at least five times that of us, and this is only in the army."
