Chapter 164 The Demon Emperor Begins War

Just as Leon was waiting for the demon army to explode.

Demon King Latiface couldn't sit still any longer.

He did not lose his composure when he learned that the northern army was repelled, nor did he get anxious when the demon army was besieged.

But now he was anxious.

After learning of Cillian's death, Latiface could no longer sit still.

Of course he knew what kind of person Iredes was.

However, under pressure from Queen Ivian and the nobles, he had to appoint Iredes as commander-in-chief.

At the same time, to prevent this idiot from giving blind orders.

Latiface appointed Cillian as deputy commander.

The meaning is to provide a backup for Iredes.

The previous Imperial Marshal explained this to Latiface before he died.

By making use of Hillian, the empire can be worry-free for twenty years.

But now Cillian is dead.

The army at the front has no hope at all relying on those idiots.

into the night.

Latiface paced back and forth beside the bed, his face full of anxiety.

"Your Majesty, it's time to go to bed."

Demon Queen Ivian was lying casually on the bed with her spring light revealed, and said seductively.

But Latiface seemed not to have heard it and continued to pace back and forth.

Finally, Ivian lost her patience.

"What are you talking about? Why don't you come over here quickly?"

Latiface said coldly.

"Isn't it because of your useless brother? Xilian was forced to death by him!"

"Cillian? A general is dead, so what? There's nothing to be sad about."

When Latiface heard this, his face darkened.

He reached out and grabbed Ivian's neck.

Ivian panicked instantly.

"Remember, if I have to choose between your brother and Xilian, I will definitely choose Xilian!"

Ivian's face flushed red, and she was about to suffocate.

Latiface let go.

Then he spoke to the attendant beside him.

"Go and inform a few ministers to come to the main hall to discuss this immediately!"

"Yes!"

Latiface looked back at Ivian on the bed, and Ivian immediately forced a smile when she saw him.

Seeing this scene, Latiface walked away without looking back.

In the main hall.

Latiface arrived at the hall early.

Looking at the position that originally belonged to Xilian.

For a moment, his face was filled with regret.

"I originally thought that I could protect you by distancing myself from you, but in the end I still failed to protect you. The Empire is sorry for you, and I am sorry for you too..."

Latiface muttered.

The entire empire had been hollowed out by the nobles when the previous emperor ascended the throne.

The previous emperor took advantage of the Holy Empire's westward expedition to cultivate a number of forces loyal to the royal family and the common people.

The three-party checks and balances are used to restrict the nobility.

But with the sudden death of the previous emperor.

Overnight, the forces cultivated by the previous emperor were cleared out.

So Latiface can only carefully build up his own power.

But now, everything is ruined!

Just as Latiface was thinking, the servant reminded him that the ministers had arrived.

Then Latiface's expression immediately changed, and he spoke angrily.

"Get in!"

Several ministers immediately trotted in.

Although he didn't know what exactly happened, Latiface had never spoken to them like this before.

So I decided to give in.

"Look at the person you chose. Iredes is a piece of mud, a hopeless person!

Xilian is dead! Are you satisfied?

Now that Xilian is dead, what should the Empire do? How can it fight other countries?

Take your huge fortune?"

Latiface growled.

None of the ministers dared to say a word.

Because they also know the importance of Xilian.

Now that Cillian is gone, defeat on the Empire's front is inevitable.

Now we are not thinking about how to win, but how to preserve our strength.

But the noble ministers still refused to give up and they tried to struggle.

"We can let Iredes launch the final attack! As long as we break through, we can gain more bargaining chips at the negotiation table!"

A noble minister said affirmatively.

Latiface picked up the teacup beside him and threw it over.

The minister was unable to dodge and was hit directly on the head. He looked at the Demon Emperor Latiface in horror, his eyes full of confusion.

"Still attacking? Attack with your head! Go to the front line and attack!

A bunch of parasites who only know how to talk nonsense here!

Do you know how many troops the empire has now? Less than 300 million!

It takes 200 million men to defend the Papal States, and now there are 50 trapped in the Elf Empire. There are 20 troops on the Western Elf Empire front, and there are 20 remnants on the northern border of the Elf Empire.

Now there are only 10 imperial guards left to guard the capital.

Tell me, what will the Empire use to continue fighting?"

Listening to the roar of Demon King Latiface, all the ministers fell silent.

Although Latiface's curse was harsh, it was the truth...

“Well, even if Iredes can summon the gods to lead the troops to break out, how many of them will be left?

What can they use to continue fighting against Da Yan and the elves?

The Eastern Elf Empire still has 150 million troops! They can fill the battle line of the Elf Empire even if they sacrifice their lives!"

Latiface roared with almost all his strength.

He has been feeling depressed for too long, and he doesn't want to feel depressed any longer.

"Your Majesty, do you mean surrender?"

The Minister of the Demon Empire's Military Department asked tentatively.

"if not?"

Latiface asked rhetorically.

"Then who will bear the responsibility for this defeat..."

The Minister of the Military rolled his eyes after he finished speaking, and then set his sights on Latiface.

"You want me to take this responsibility?"

Latiface was very angry and immediately looked at the other ministers.

Other ministers focused their attention elsewhere.

"Okay, okay, you guys started the war, and now you want me to take the blame. In that case, let's see what you parasites can do!"

Latiface said, his face no longer showing the compromise he had before.

The ministers all looked confused as to why the originally obedient Latiface suddenly turned hostile.

But they are not worried about what kind of trouble Latiface could cause.

Having ascended the throne for more than ten years, they all knew what Latiface did every day. Even the Demon Queen Ivian was pushed to the throne by them.

So Latiface is transparent to them.

But that's what they thought.

There is still a lot they don't know about Latiface...

Looking at the minister leaving.

There was a cold light in Latiface's eyes.

"Lapps!"

A man in black appeared in front of Latiface.

"Let's do it! Start with the Minister of the Military... The Empire needs to deal with the restless nobles, and the defeat needs a scapegoat..."

"Yes!"

The man in black disappeared in an instant.

Latiface spoke to the people around him.

"Don't think I don't know that you were sent by them. Since you have taken their money, you must be prepared to die!"

Amid their puzzled looks, he clapped his hands.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of men in black appeared and dealt with the servants and maids in an instant.

The entire palace was immediately flooded with blood...

(I want a cat girl, what the hell (T ^ T)

It's all green, it's cool, no need to turn on the air conditioner in summer (T ^ T) It's dropped by 2 again (T ^ T)

The cat is going to be raised to death (T ^ T))
