Due to various troubles, no other train conductor paid attention to where Chen An went.

A heated debate is going on in the Star Domain Network.

"The Sun Worship Galaxy has assembled 500 million soldiers, and more will follow."

"We tested the strength of the Imperial military through two wars, but they also saw our weaknesses."

"Super weapons, impenetrable defenses, and a massive fleet. If you want to go, go by yourselves. I'm not going anyway."

When the loss is likely to outweigh the gain, no normal person will choose to continue.

Chen An didn't say anything, because he was the same and it was impossible for him to lead the train into a mine.

The biggest attraction for him at the moment is the extraordinary technology, not any other resources.

But compared with the safety of the train, the extraordinary technology is not worth mentioning.

"Chen An, what do you think?" Sengge asked.

Chen An replied: "I don't want to go either. It's of no value to me. What do you think?"

Sengge said, "As long as I have the energy crystals and technology, what's the harm in taking down Sun Worship Star? Since the Empire has gathered all its troops, it means that other places are empty. If we don't take this opportunity to plunder, when will we?"

This is the normal way of thinking, Chen An agreed.

He then communicated with other bigwigs and basically finalized the plan.

They posted their ideas on the star network, and other train conductors generally agreed.

"Hurry up and develop, grab resources everywhere, and leave the turtle shells of the Sun Worship Galaxy for them to play with."

"The energy crystals are basically concentrated on the administrative planet. We should each find our own targets. It's best not to concentrate together."

"What if the Empire attacks?"

"What are they using to chase the train? Just ignore them."

After their thoughts became clear, the train conductors relaxed and were no longer troubled by the meaningless war that was about to follow.

About an hour later, the execution of the Orescu family was made public.

The train conductors were fully aware of the Empire's intentions.

"We tried to inspire the nation's fighting spirit in this way, but it was useless. We gave in."

"Olesgu is no ordinary general, the most prestigious general in the empire. Once we withdraw, the fighting spirit that has been aroused will quickly decline, and then it will backfire on the emperor himself."

"I just like watching this kind of drama. It should be very interesting."

"Is Olesgu still alive? In whose car is he?"

This reminded Chen An, and he immediately asked Fuyao to broadcast the live broadcast to Olesgu so that he could see the family's situation clearly.

When Orescu learned that his family was going to be publicly executed, no matter how hard-hearted he was, he was still panicked.

"Conductor... Your Excellency, I request to speak to His Majesty."

Chen An replied coldly: "Are you sure your emperor will listen to you?"

Olesgu's face was distorted, his eight arms were tensed, tightly grasping the wall, and were covered in blood.

He was speechless and stared at the screen. Thousands of his people were being escorted out and were about to be beheaded.

Among them are his immediate family members, parents, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

There are also collateral relatives, a nephew whose business was affected, and a great-niece whom I love very much.

However, these relatives were beheaded in panic, their heads rolled all over the ground, and blood spurted out, dyeing the scene red.

"Your Majesty...you are so cruel." These words were squeezed out of Olesgu's throat, and then fell down like a puddle of mud.

Chen An: "Is he okay?"

[Fainted after a fit of rage, nothing happened]

"If he can still go back to serve the emperor, I'll write his name upside down. See what the internet says."

The Empire Internet was filled with almost unanimous condemnation.

Olescu seemed to have become an eternal sinner, with countless charges placed on his head and the most vicious curses poured upon him.

So the citizens of the empire enthusiastically joined the army to defend their country.

The execution scenes and online reactions further strengthened the train captains' desire to withdraw. There was really no need to confront the Empire head-on when it was at its strongest.

"Brother An, where are you going?"

Chen An: "I'm not sure for now. You can stay with Roy and the others. Keep me updated on your coordinates. I'll come find you when I'm done with my work."

Yang Dingtian: "Okay, call me anytime if you need anything."

There is an energy crystal storage point in every star field, and Chen An plans to fill the train up first.

…

Inside the Sun Worship Star Palace, Contel's face was twisted with anger, and his sharp teeth were chattering.

At his feet lay the body of a maid, and no one dared to clean it up.

"Not coming? You just won't come?"

The Minister of Intelligence and the Minister of Defense were trembling with fear, hunching their bodies and not daring to look up.

After Contel had vented his anger for a while, he shouted, "Are you sure the train isn't moving forward, but retreating? Could it be a trick of theirs?"

The Minister of Intelligence replied, "Some trains have appeared in other star regions and have captured several administrative stars. Do you want to provide support?"

Almost all the main forces in the country are here, and other administrative stars can only be slaughtered.

The Minister of Defense then said: “While the trains are dispersed, I suggest taking the initiative.

Contel said angrily, "The train is too fast. How can we attack? We only have the defense and counterattack. Everything else is useless. Besides, what if Bairixing withdraws its defenses and the train comes back?"

Defense Minister: "But Your Majesty, the defense of Sun Worship Star consumes a huge amount of resources every day. I'm afraid we can't hold out."

Contel shouted harshly, "Can't the whole nation afford this? Levy taxes! Increase all taxes by 50 percent. Those who don't pay will be charged with treason."

"But Your Majesty, we just executed the Orescu family yesterday. If we suddenly increase taxes, it will offset the patriotic enthusiasm that the citizens have worked so hard to arouse."

"There's no point in sending more troops now, so we'll just offset the damage. It doesn't matter. But before we do that, we still need to try to attract the trains. Spread the word that Sun Worship has 50 million third-grade energy crystals and a full set of extraordinary technology, which the trains want most. Furthermore, all networks and technological data outside of the Sun Worship system must be destroyed, including any energy crystals that cannot be taken away."

The Minister of Intelligence and the Minister of Defense looked at each other and knew that their Majesty had gone mad.

"Your Majesty, this cannot be done. Don't forget that there are still resistance forces."

"Energy crystals can be taken away or destroyed, but the internet and scientific data cannot. No one can live without the internet; it's permeated every aspect of life. Scientific data is essentially controlled by the empire's elite, so it can't be destroyed either."

Contel said calmly, "Destroying the base stations in various locations will shut down the network. As for the technological data, we can have the local military forcibly destroy it. Who can resist? Don't worry, the network can be restored, and the technological data will not be truly lost. The palace has all the backups."

"Your Majesty, we still can't do that. We can't deal with our enemies by destroying the empire. There has never been such a thing."

This is not a simple matter of killing 800 enemies and losing 1,000 of your own, but killing 800 enemies and losing 100 million of your own. A normal person would definitely not dare to make this decision.

Seeing that the two ministers refused to give in, Contel nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Go down!"

The two ministers breathed a sigh of relief, but just as they turned around and took two steps, they were shot by guns from the side.

"There are plenty of ministers who want to work for me. At worst, I can just replace them with new ones."

"Since it has come to this, what's the harm in destroying the empire? It will be destroyed in the end anyway."
