Seeing that the Imperial Guards were ignoring his orders, Li Yi's face grew increasingly grim. He never expected that the authority and rule he had carefully built would be challenged so severely at this moment.

He glared at the Imperial Guards below, his voice as cold as ice: "Are you openly defying my orders and heading towards destruction with the traitor Qian Peng?"

Li Yi was not worried that the entire Imperial Guard's rebellion would pose a substantial threat to his rule.

After all, the Imperial Guard was a relatively new organization, and its personnel and combat capabilities were no match for the veteran armed group, the Fire Seed Group. It was not even fully equipped with basic firearms and ammunition, and could not even be considered a ragtag army. In Li Yi's eyes, such a motley crew was nothing more than a flock of lambs to the slaughter.

However, what angered him was that these "Imperial Guards" dared to openly defy his orders, which was an unprecedented challenge for him.

Seeing that the newly established "Imperial Guard" was truly determined to follow Chen Yu to the bitter end, Li Yi no longer hesitated or held back.

Since these "Imperial Guards" are disobedient, then just wipe them out. A bunch of ants trying to shake the heavens?

He waved his hand, about to order the "Fire Seed Battle Group" to surround and kill the "Imperial Guards," including "Qian Peng."

Suddenly, a faint yet powerful shout came from the square below: "We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! Brothers, awaken! Uproot privilege, uproot oppression, dare to unite, one heart! We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! We are not..."

The shout spread like wildfire across the square, each word like a heavy hammer blow to everyone's heart.

The fund investors, who were still hesitant, seemed to be inspired by an invisible force. Their eyes began to shine with an unprecedented light, a yearning for freedom and a pursuit of equality.

“Yes! We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! We have the right to choose our own path, and the right to pursue happiness and freedom!” a fund investor shouted in agreement, his voice full of determination and strength.

Following this, more fund investors began to respond.

"We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! Brothers, wake up! Eliminate privilege, eliminate oppression, dare to unite, and be of one mind! We are not cattle or horses, we are human beings! We are not..." The crowd shouted along, and finally hummed along rhythmically.

The songs and shouts of hundreds of thousands of Christians mingled together, surging forward like an unstoppable torrent.

Their voices were filled with longing for freedom, desire for equality, and anger and resistance against tyranny.

Their voices converged into an unstoppable torrent, eroding the carefully constructed dam of authority and rule built by Li Yi.

"Arise, ye who refuse to be slaves! Let our flesh and blood form our nation..." A Christian suddenly began to sing the Great Xia national anthem loudly. His voice was passionate and powerful, instantly igniting the enthusiasm of everyone.

The others joined in, singing along to the rhythm. In the song, they seemed to see hope for their future, the dawn of freedom and equality.

Li Yi's face grew even uglier. He never expected that these lowly creatures, whom he considered as insignificant as ants, would dare to openly rebel against his rule, and with such great force that they seemed poised to overthrow him.

This is utterly rebellious and contrary to the natural order!

Chen Yu felt a pang of emotion at this moment, as if this scene had a sense of déjà vu.

Last time, at his Tianyu base, those provoked base members also made this deafening shout at the foot of his stone mountain.

At that time, after his persuasion failed, he directly carried out inhumane shootings on those Christians who intended to rebel.

And now, this scene is playing out again.

The difference is that this time it's at the Fire Seed Base, the number of people gathered is much larger, and he is the "instigator".

Of course, these two things may seem similar in nature, but they are actually fundamentally different.

First of all, their starting points are different.

The instigators at Tianyu Base are doing this to exploit the ignorant and misled base members to achieve their own interests.

And he, Chen Yu, is here to liberate these oppressed, grassroots people of the Fireseed Base;

Secondly, the treatment of the grassroots civilians in the two bases was incomparable.

Under his protection, the people of Tianyu Base lived a comfortable and carefree life, while the people of Huozhong Base suffered in misery, enduring oppression and exploitation.

Moreover, all the resources in Tianyu Base belong to Chen Yu personally. He has never exploited or squeezed a single penny from the grassroots base members. In essence, the entire Tianyu Base is supported by him.

The Fire Seed Base has been able to survive to this day entirely through the brutal exploitation and oppression of its lower-level inhabitants.

Li Yi and his ruling clique, like vampires, are exploiting the blood and sweat of the people to satisfy their own greed and desires.

In this respect, Chen Yu himself was a victim in his previous life;

In the end, the Tianyu Base rioters were being used as pawns. When he took action to suppress them, those people not only watched coldly but also secretly laughed behind the scenes.

Chen Yu came here with the purpose of helping the grassroots people of the Fireseed Base. From the beginning, he had prepared an absolute armed force to ensure that he could protect these people at critical moments.
