Everyone thought the most powerful scientist they had ever seen was a national treasure-level technologist, until they met Bai Zhi—the Light of Technology, a cosmic-level scientist.
Congrat...
Send bombers over to get the money...
Is this taking money?
This is a threat!!
Wang Shuai's curse was stuck in his throat. His face flushed, veins on his forehead throbbed, and his lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a word, as if he was about to bleed at any moment.
He had just recovered from his illness, but now he was so furious that he felt black in front of his eyes, which showed how angry he was.
"Dad, why should we give her money?" Wang Jiao came in, pushing aside the curtain. "Peacekeeping fee! I've never heard of that term, and I never knew there was such a fee!"
She had never heard of this term even when she was studying abroad, but Ye Baizhi could actually say it!
If they really wanted to borrow troops from her to maintain peace, then paying her would make sense, but was that what they were willing to do?!
They don't want peace, they just want to fight with the people of Southern Province.
She had to interfere, not only preventing them from winning the war and wasting military funds, but she even had the nerve to ask them for money?
Wang Jiao was also furious.
Wang Shuai's face darkened as he yelled at her, "This isn't your business. You're a girl, why don't you stay home? What are you doing here?"
"Dad, Ye Baizhi, a woman, can be a commander-in-chief, why can't I..." she muttered softly.
Wang Shuai was so angry that he laughed. He looked at her and said, "If you had her ability, I would give you the title of Marshal!"
No matter how irritating Ye Baizhi is, she can make him so angry that he jumps to his feet and can't do anything about her. That's her ability.
If Wang Jiao had this ability, Wang Shuai would feel that he would have someone to succeed him.
Unfortunately, that woman was not Wang Jiao, but an enemy.
Being told that she was not as good as another woman, especially a woman with whom she had a delicate relationship, Wang Jiao still felt uncomfortable even though she knew it in her heart.
She stamped her feet and ran out.
Wang Shuai sat down with a gloomy face.
It's incomprehensible that even a girl who knows nothing knows about this fee. How could he not know it himself?
How could his subordinates not know this?!
But why are they not speaking at this moment, and why do they all have obscure and complicated expressions in their eyes?
Because they were bombers, and they didn't want to die!
Outside, there was a constant rumbling sound, as if it was urging people to die.
Wang Shuai had a gloomy face.
"General Wang?" The subordinate's voice was tentative.
Whether you give it or not, you have to give an explanation. The plane is still overhead.
Give it to me, I’m not willing to give it up.
After all, they didn't ask her to go!
If I don’t give it to them, what if Ye Baizhi is really that cruel and just blows them up and takes over Yang Province from now on?
They also spent 60,000 taels to redeem the three people from Yang Province who were previously detained by Ye Baizhi.
That is already a huge expense.
Now, a so-called peace maintenance fee actually requires them to pay more money!
Wang Shuai took a deep breath and said slowly, "Go and discuss it with him. Tell him that we need time to gather the money. When we have enough, we will personally send it to her in Northern Province!"
"Yes!" the subordinate responded and hurried out.
After a while, the men came back again——
"Wang Shuai, they said the interest rate is 80%. Every day you delay, you have to pay more!"
Wang Shuai clenched his hands instantly, his face darkened, and he gritted his teeth: "Okay!"
He agreed!
But it is not certain whether Ye Baizhi will still be alive to collect the money from him!
You know, Japan has joined forces with Country Y and Country F to gather people from other countries to encircle and suppress Ye Baizhi. By that time, it will be hard to say whether she can survive.
When the time comes, I will die and see how she collects the money!
Wang Shuai sneered.
at the same time.
"Jiang Shuai, think of a solution quickly!"
"Yes, the situation is critical now. The plane is flying right above our heads. If the bomb is dropped, we will be finished!"
"Damn it, this is too much! I'm going to beat him down!"
"How are you going to fight? How are you going to take it down? We can't get to the sky!"
"Jiang Shuai, think of a solution quickly!"
…
Jiang Cheng's face looked very ugly. He sat at the top and remained silent, his slightly lowered eyes concealing his anger and helplessness.
The deputy general was the person who had been with Jiang Cheng the longest. He had followed him all the way and was his companion in usurping the throne.
After thinking for a moment, he said tentatively, "Jiang Shuai, Ye Baizhi is you after all... ahem, why don't you go meet her in person? Whether it's peace maintenance fees or the people she's holding there, it's a considerable expense!"
Of course, if you can avoid giving this money, then don't give it.
The deputy general said this because he had seen Ye Baizhi many times before. At that time, she was still a pretty young lady from a wealthy family. She only had Jiang Cheng in her eyes, and her heart and eyes were full of Jiang Cheng.
That's why he suggested Jiang Cheng to meet Ye Baizhi in person.
After all, they have been husband and wife for so many years, so there must be some affection between them.
As soon as this suggestion was made, the discussions of others stopped and they all looked at Jiang Cheng.
yes!
Why didn't they think of this idea?!
"Jiang Shuai, yes, you can go see Ye Baizhi in person!"
"A day of marriage brings a hundred days of grace. You have been together since childhood, so she must have feelings for you."
"Yes, Jiang Shuai, if you go there in person, you will definitely be able to bring Wu Jianjun and the others back. And Ye Jun has such a powerful weapon, you can also ask Ye Baizhi about it!"
…
Of course, some people disagree.
"Marshal Jiang and Ye Baizhi have been friends for many years, but everyone should not forget that the former Marshal was Ye Baizhi's father!"
And Jiang Cheng killed Marshal Ye with his own hands.
They have become enemies now.
Isn’t the fact that the sky lanterns floated all night long enough to explain the problem?
Don’t go to Jiangcheng and get into big trouble.
I always feel that Ye Baizhi is a difficult woman to deal with.
"Women are all soft-hearted. Our Jiang Shuai is so young and handsome. As long as we talk to Ye Baizhi properly, we will definitely be able to reconcile."
"That's not necessarily true. Don't make things worse."
"Marshal Jiang killed Marshal Ye. Marshal Ye was also responsible for the death of Jiang Shuai's father. It's a draw."
"Talk to Ye Baizhi about this."
"I still think Jiang Shuai should go. Women, after all, just coax them. She must still be thinking about Jiang Shuai!"
"That's revenge for my father's murder. What if Jiang Shuai goes there and gets himself into danger?"
…
They started arguing.
Some people agreed to go see Ye Baizhi, while others disagreed.
Jiang Cheng was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke:
"Prepare the car, I'm going to Beidu."
He also wanted to meet Ye Baizhi.
She had changed so much since Ye Chengjun's death. The sky lanterns, the killing of Japanese pirates, the tough attitude, the ransom, the airplanes, the peace maintenance fees... one thing after another, it was hard for him to connect her with the woman in his memory.
He thought it was time to meet Ye Baizhi in person.
The Northern Province is not peaceful.
When the Emperor of Japan saw that Ye Baizhi was actually demanding a huge amount of compensation from Country Y and Country F, he was immediately ecstatic.
He immediately contacted the two countries, and after receiving a positive response from both countries, he sent a document back to Ye Baizhi, which was also widely reported in their country of Japan.
"Ye Baizhi's actions in Northern Province of the Republic of China have severely damaged the interests of our country. We protest her demand for exorbitant compensation from us. This is disrespectful to Japan and a serious violation of humanitarianism and the spirit of contract. We will form a joint force with countries F and Y to rescue our 6,000 soldiers.
We hope that Ms. Ye Baizhi will take the initiative to return the 6,000 soldiers and sign a peace agreement with us, and then abide by the agreement in the future. Otherwise, we will use force to negotiate with Ms. Ye Baizhi!"
Every word and sentence is full of threats and intimidation.
Not only did Bai Zhi have to personally send back the six thousand soldiers, but she also had to sign peace terms. As for the content of the terms...
Haha, that might be what they decided.
If Ye Baizhi does not agree, their coalition forces will take action and use force to forcibly send the 6,000 soldiers back.
This forced...
But for the entire Republic of China, for the entire land.
His words were very confident at this time.
At least the people of Japan will not have any bad opinions about him, nor will they think that he does not value the 6,000 soldiers.
After all, other countries united together to attack Ye Baizhi. In such a difficult situation, they didn't think she would do anything to the 6,000 soldiers.
Of course, if she really killed 6,000 soldiers, the emperor might not even frown.
He would even be happier that Ye Baizhi aroused Japan's anger and diverted the blame and resentment for the defeat.
As for the ransom, let alone the money, the person is dead.
When the news reached the country, all major newspapers reported it. The people in the northern province were outraged, and some patriotic patriots even wrote articles to curse Japan for being shameless!
Why didn't they think of humanitarianism and mercy when they were massacring people during the Republic of China?
"Bah, so shameless!"
"I'm going to kill those six thousand people! Not a single one will be left alive! Damn it!"
"It's the coalition forces at every turn. Come on, we're not afraid!"
"If you come one, I'll kill one. If you come two, I'll kill a pair!"
"Fuck it, let's go and kill those pirates!"
…
In the meeting room of Marshal Ye's residence, Zhou De and others were furious, their voices filled with resentment.
Bai Zhi sat at the top, still wiping her glasses with her eyes slightly lowered.
Seeing this, she opened her eyelids, looked at them, and said disapprovingly: "Don't be so cruel. Killing at every turn is not peaceful. Don't forget our purpose - everything is for peace."
Everyone: “???”
Bai Zhi put on her glasses and stood up: "Get ready. In two days, the two warships will set off together for Japan."
She paused, her eyes moved slightly under her gold-rimmed glasses, and the corners of her lips curled up: "Let's go to collect the debt."
Everyone: “…”
Then, excited and loud voices rang out together——
"yes!!!"
When Jiang Cheng arrived in Bei Province, the infrastructure in Bei Province was already quite established.
In this chaotic world, the only person who is still willing to spend money on infrastructure is probably Ye Baizhi from Northern Province.
The roads in this city are exceptionally smooth, and there are relatively more cars. People come and go, and everyone has a smile on their face. Even when they entered the city, those people just slightly avoided the cars with indifferent expressions, and they were not as frightened as people from other cities were when they saw them.
At the beginning, Beijing was the most chaotic of all cities.
But now, the northern capital is even more prosperous and lively than their southern province.
The sound of vendors shouting and hawking various things filled the air. Young female students walked boldly on the street, children ran and jumped, and the patrolmen with guns didn't seem too serious.
This scene made them feel as if they were in another world.
In this war-torn era, the Northern Capital was prosperous and peaceful to a shocking degree.
"Beidu... is it like this now? This is unbelievable!" the subordinates said in shock.
Jiang Cheng responded and lowered his eyes slightly to hide the horror in his eyes.
"The coalition forces from Japan, Country Y and Country F may arrive at any time. Why aren't they afraid at all? Why is Beidu still so peaceful?" someone asked in confusion.
"I don't know. No wonder everyone else wants to run to Beidu. If there were no war, this place would be really nice." Another subordinate sighed.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was bumped into by someone.
So the subordinate quickly shut up and looked at Jiang Cheng guiltily.
Jiang Cheng didn't bother to argue with him. He looked at the city in surprise, and then his gaze moved in one direction.
There, a newsboy called out—
"Newspapers for sale, newspapers for sale! We have newspapers from all the major warlords, including Liao Province, Zhong Province, Yang Province, and Nan Province. We also have the freshly published Bei Province Daily and Beidu Miscellaneous Newspaper!"
Jiang Cheng and his men walked over slowly.
"Sir, would you like a newspaper? There is only one copy of Beidu Miscellaneous Newspaper left!" said the newsboy with a smile.
Jiang Cheng: "One for each."
"Oh! Okay!" The newsboy took the money and handed it to him happily.
Jiang Cheng took it, and the three of them found a stall to sit down and read the newspaper.
"These newspapers from other provinces are only one day late and are exactly the same. It turns out that all kinds of newspapers are included." The deputy general said with surprise in his eyes.
Jiang Cheng frowned slightly, with surprise in his eyes.
This is a period of warlord infighting. Normally, the newspapers of each warlord will not report good things about other warlords. The reports are all scandals and condemnations.
Therefore, newspapers were generally not circulated among the warlords.
At least the Southern Province does not allow the sale of newspapers from other provinces.
It's okay to sell or buy secretly, but it's very rare to sell relatively up-to-date newspapers so openly.
Isn’t Ye Baizhi afraid that other warlords will slander her?
"The Northern Province Daily is today's. It reports a lot of information, just like what we saw. It also reports on the Japanese army's road construction, and also reports..." The subordinate paused slightly.
"What else was reported?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"It also reported that we hadn't redeemed anyone, and that Yang Province hadn't paid the peacekeeping fee."
Jiang Cheng clenched his hands into fists.
Next to him, the subordinate holding the Beidu Magazine turned pale. He looked at the newspaper, then secretly glanced at Jiang Cheng, then lowered his head to look at the newspaper again, as if he wanted to hide.
Jiang Cheng spoke slowly: "What did you say...just say it."
The man's voice trembled: "It's said on the front page, it's said that Jiang Shuai from Southern Province is... is..."
Jiang Cheng reached out and took it to look at it himself.
The front page read in large letters: Jiang Cheng, the Jiang Shuai of Southern Province, is a poor guy.
The content then analyzes his financial situation and the fact that he did not redeem the people and owed peace maintenance fees. The words he used were quite contemptuous and disdainful.
It seems that the whole article is filled with questions like – Why are you so poor? Why are you so poor?
Jiang Cheng's forehead was bulging with veins.
Next to them, other sections were analyzing newspapers published by other warlords, and most of them said the same thing:
"They are talking nonsense. The truth is..."
He sold out all the other person's secrets in an instant, and I don't know where Bei Province found out about it.
Of course, this also includes Southern Province!
Jiang Cheng crumpled the newspaper into a ball, his face turned ugly black and his fingertips turned white.
"General Jiang..." the deputy general said cautiously.
They never imagined that the Northern Province would be like this!
So unexpected!
Jiang Cheng took a deep breath, loosened his grip, threw away the newspaper, stood up and walked in one direction, leaving behind a sentence: "Go to Marshal Ye's residence."
Others hurried to pay and follow.
"We are here to see Marshal Ye. Please inform him." Jiang Cheng's men said.
The man frowned and said, "Marshal Ye has been very busy lately and hasn't seen anyone. You guys should go now."
Jiang Cheng's men said in disbelief: "Do you know who our leader is?"
"I don't care who you are!" the man said bluntly.
Jiang Cheng stepped forward, his handsome face calm, his eyes slightly lowered, hiding all his emotions. He said, "Tell Ye Baizhi that Jiang Cheng from Southern Province is here."
The man was stunned and immediately looked Jiang Cheng up and down. His eyes were not friendly at all.
——Yes, given the current atmosphere in Northern Province, everyone probably knows about his and Ye Baizhi’s past.
Of course, I won't say anything good about him.
Jiang Cheng's men couldn't bear it anymore and were ready to draw their guns.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from inside the door, and a group of people rushed out.
Jiang Cheng and his group took out their guns in a defensive manner, their eyes alert.
However, those people didn't even look at them, and stood in two rows beside them, forming a passage.
Faintly, I could hear a sound——
"Marshal Ye is here!"
Jiang Cheng looked up suddenly.
Behind him, the deputy general lowered his voice and said, "Commander Jiang, Ye Baizhi still cares about you very much. She even came out in person."
Jiang Cheng didn't say anything and looked towards the door.
The first to come out were Zhou De and Liu Li. They hadn't changed much from before, except that their aura was stronger than before. It was obvious that both of them had been doing quite well during their time away.
After they came out, they stood respectfully at the door and smiled towards the inside.
It was a very sincere, adoring smile.
Then, a woman appeared in front of Jiang Cheng.
At that moment, Jiang Cheng was stunned.
She was wearing a black Ye army uniform. The belt was not tied tightly, but rather loosely. Her trouser legs were tucked into her leather boots, making her slender and long legs look even straighter.
The top button of the clothes was not fastened, and one button was loose, giving it a sense of unruliness.
Her hair was simply tied up at the back of her head, and she wore gold-rimmed glasses. Her facial features were delicate yet sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath, with a hint of murderous intent emerging from her.
What shocked Jiang Cheng the most was that pair of eyes, which were casual, unruly, cold and sharp. The combination of these eyes made people feel cold all over.
This is... Ye Baizhi? !
The appearance is still the same, but it gives people a completely different feeling.
Behind her followed Ye Tian, who was wearing a scaled-down military uniform.
He was like another Ye Baizhi, learning everything from her, except that his chubby face couldn't acquire that sharpness.
He didn't need anyone to lead the way, he just walked with his short legs, "puff puff" following Bai Zhi.
They thought she was coming to see him.
However, she raised her chin slightly, showing them only a delicate and pretty profile, and then passed by without even glancing at them, as if she hadn't seen them.
There were three cars parked at the door. Zhou De and others hurried forward and carefully opened the door of the middle car.
Bai Zhi had already walked to the front of the car.
"Marshal Ye!" Jiang Cheng's adjutant shouted.
Bai Zhi paused and looked back at them.
The others also looked at them.
Zhou De's eyes widened instantly and he said fiercely: "Jiangcheng?! How dare you come to Bei Province?!"
His hand had already touched the gun.
Jiang Cheng didn't say anything, he just kept looking at Bai Zhi.
The adjutant said anxiously, "Zhou De, we are old acquaintances. Don't be impulsive. We are here only to see Marshal Ye. Marshal Ye, Marshal Jiang is here to see you in person!"
"You shameless person—" Zhou De was about to start cursing.
Bai Zhi raised her hand slightly.
Zhou De immediately stopped talking, and everyone became extremely quiet in an instant, just because of Bai Zhi's action.
But the guns were all pointed at them, and their eyes were wary.
——Her authority in the Northern Province is shocking.
——The aura of the soldiers from the Northern Province is also very different.
"Pay the ransom? Just give it to Chen Jianye." After saying that, she stepped into the car.
The last look she gave Jiang Cheng was full of indifference, as if she was a god and he was just an ordinary, fragile person, and she didn't take him seriously at all.
Ye Tian looked at Jiang Cheng with a complicated look, then got into the car.
The doors closed and the three cars drove away.
"Marshal Ye!" the deputy general shouted loudly.
However, no one paid any attention to them and the car drove away.
——She didn't come out to see them, and she didn't even bother to look at them.
"Marshal Ye...is different from before..." the subordinate murmured.
The people Jiang Cheng brought with him this time were all old acquaintances, some of whom he had even known Ye Baizhi before.
But even if they knew each other, they would subconsciously call him "Marshal Ye" instead of "Ye Baizhi", "Miss Ye" or "Mrs. Jiang".
They already believed from the bottom of their hearts that she was Marshal Ye.
Jiang Cheng looked at the direction the car left, silent for a long time, with a complicated look in his eyes.
He had thought of every reaction she could have, except this one.
Jiang Cheng stood there for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Find out where she went..."
"yes!"
It’s easy to find out where Ye Baizhi went.
Because two hours later, the news spread throughout Beidu—
"Marshal Ye took two warships and went to ask the Japanese for ransom!!"
The warship has set off. On the newly built warship, there is a big "叶" character that is extremely obvious.
The two warships, led by Ye Baizhi herself, disappeared on the sea.
The adjutant stood up in disbelief. "The Northern Province has warships?! And she's going straight to attack Japan?!"
"Fuck! Is this true?!" The other men were also stunned.
"This is fucking too arrogant! They're actually attacking Japan!!"
"That's a warship! They actually built it themselves?!"
"And she actually dared to head straight for Japan! How many people does she have? Two warships wouldn't be enough."
"Ye Baizhi, Ye Baizhi... This woman is really something I don't know what to say..."
…
The men's faces were filled with shock, as if they had seen a ghost.
Even Jiang Cheng couldn't hide the shock and surprise on his face.
"Is she looking for death?" One of the subordinates who was very disgusted with the Northern Province couldn't help but say.
Some people also said: "But I have to say... Marshal Ye was really courageous. She was probably the first person in the Republic of China to fight abroad, right?"
Ever since the country's borders were opened, it has always been others who beat them out. She is currently the first and only person to be beaten out!
Be sure to have the guts.
The surroundings were already boiling with discussions everywhere.
"Sure enough, I said Marshal Ye would never allow them to accuse him!"
"Marshal Ye is so handsome. Coming to Beijing is the best thing I have ever done!"
"I have an inspiration. I can't wait to write a poem for Marshal Ye."
"Where are you going, sis?"
"I'm going home to pray and pray for Marshal Ye's triumphant return."
"Don't worry, Ye Shuai will definitely win. She is Ye Shuai."
…
The people in Beidu only expressed their trust in Ye Baizhi.
——That’s Marshal Ye.
Just these five words represent boundless trust and love.
Are there other warlords who can do this?
The subordinates murmured, "Are they so sure that Ye Baizhi will win? Isn't she going to die? Even if they have two warships, how many people can they have? Japan has several warships, and there are also countries Y and F..."
The deputy general looked at Jiang Cheng: "Marshal Jiang, Marshal Ye has gone to Japan, so what should we do next?"
Jiang Cheng stared at the table in a daze. Upon hearing this, he slowly spoke:
"wait."
Wait and see if she wins or loses.
Wait and see if she is so arrogant that she doesn't care about life or death, or if she is full of confidence.
Just wait.
The Emperor of Japan is talking with representatives from other countries.
This time, all their forces will be mobilized to encircle and suppress Ye Baizhi in Northern Province.
The Japanese army that failed at sea has not yet been redeemed, so they don’t know how Ye Baizhi did it.
But they don't think they will lose this time.
Last time, it was only the Japanese forces. This time, the Japanese army will send more warships with more powerful weapons.
At the same time, Country F and Country Y will also send troops and warships to form a coalition to fight against the Republic of China.
"Ye Baizhi is so presumptuous. Our Country F is busy with the war and has no time to deal with that vulnerable sick man country. Yet she is so rampant that she even dares to ask us for money?" Le Goff, the representative of Country F, said with a cold face.
His military rank is not low, which shows that Country F is angry this time.
Walter, the representative of Country Y, smiled and said, "Oh, there's no need to be too angry. She might have a problem with her head. After all, she was the first person to ask us for 100 million taels of silver in compensation. I'm already thinking about how much compensation we'll ask the Republic of China for and how much land we'll divide."
Le Goff raised an eyebrow. "What do you want with such a large piece of land? You should give us more this time."
"Dear Le Goff, your country probably doesn't have the time to colonize more land now, right? Just give us more of the Republic of China's land." Walter refused to give in.
Before the battle even started, they already knew they would win.
Discussions have even begun on the division of land.
The domestic warlords might not have thought that this time they really assembled a large army, and naturally they also wanted to occupy the entire land of the Republic of China!
Leaf Angelica?
It's just the character they have to deal with first.
Country F and Country Y are big countries, and other small countries can only listen and dare not interrupt.
But they eat meat, so these small countries can always drink soup, right?
So, they all had smiles on their faces.
The Japanese Emperor forced a smile and said politely, "Everyone, let's discuss the distribution of benefits after the war. Now, I want to show you something."
Representatives from all countries looked at the Japanese Emperor.
——After all, he is the organizer of this coalition and has the highest status.
The Emperor handed out some photos, which were circulated among the major countries.
Le Goff and Walter were both stunned.
"Bomber?" Le Goff asked in surprise.
The Emperor nodded. "Yes, it's a bomber. It was sent by the warlords of the Republic of China. It's also the secret of Ye Baizhi that they photographed. She probably used this to defeat our Japanese army."
Walter frowned slightly: "How can they produce a bomber?"
He obviously didn't believe that this was produced by the people of the Republic of China themselves, but the reality was that this bomber did not belong to any other known country.
So, this is probably the reason behind Ye Baizhi's arrogance, right?
"I think we should be more cautious. Her bombers are more powerful than all we have now, otherwise she would not have been able to defeat our Japanese army so quickly." The emperor said in a calm voice.
Other small countries also changed their attitude.
At this time, Walter suddenly laughed: "Don't worry too much. No matter how powerful the bomber is, if it flies too high, it won't hit us. If it flies too low, we will shoot it down... You know, the cannons we brought this time are the latest weapons with great lethality."
Le Goff was not to be outdone: "The cannons we brought are also the latest domestic models. Their accuracy and range have doubled compared to the previous ones, and their attack power has increased several times!"
Hearing this, the Emperor also let out a long sigh: "During this period, our Japanese weapons and artillery have also been improved, which is just right for use in this battle. With your help, this time, we will definitely not lose!"
"certainly."
The Emperor smiled and said, "I have another request. I hope that after the war, Ye Baizhi can be handed over to our country of Japan. I need to give an explanation to our people, and I also want her blood to commemorate the fallen Japanese soldiers!"
Walter and Le Goff looked at each other and saw the understanding in each other's eyes.
"Okay, but the gun has no eyes. What if she dies?" Walter asked.
The Japanese Emperor didn't care much: "Then I want the body."
Several people laughed, and representatives from other small countries also laughed, as if they were sure of victory.
At this moment, someone suddenly looked around at the door in panic.
Immediately, the person serving the emperor hurried over. After hearing something, he was slightly shocked. He immediately brought his people in and knelt on the ground.
The Japanese Emperor frowned: "What happened?"
"Emperor! Ye Baizhi from the Republic of China is driving a warship towards our country!" the man shouted, crawling on the ground. "She said she is here to collect the ransom!"
The Japanese Emperor stood up suddenly and asked, "How many warships did she bring?"
"I don't know how many people there are, and two warships."
The emperor was stunned.
Walter and Le Goff suddenly laughed—
"Hahaha, only two warships?! Is she here to apologize?"
"Emperor, you probably don't have to wait until after the war to capture Ye Baizhi alive."
Representatives from other small countries also laughed. They couldn't believe that someone would come here with two warships. Was he here to collect the ransom, or to seek death?
Didn't she know that besides Japan, warships and armies from other countries were also gathered here?!
The emperor's expression also relaxed.
But even if there were only two warships, and even if Ye Baizhi was obviously seeking death, he could not let the warships get close to Japan, otherwise it would be easy to hit the Japanese ports and hurt the Japanese people.
He raised his hand and said majestically—
"First, send four warships to intercept them at sea. It would be best if we could capture Ye Baizhi alive to comfort our Japanese heroes!"
