Although Wang Zheng had made some guesses before, now that they have all brought it up themselves, it can be considered a confirmation.
Come to think of it, how could a traitor who dares to operate on the border of China and provoke Chinese soldiers not speak Chinese?
Wang Zheng nodded in satisfaction.
"Great, now it's time for the Q&A session. I will randomly select one lucky person to answer, and the remaining three can add their answers after that person finishes."
First of all, if any of you can point out that your companion is lying, I can not only spare his life, but also help him regain his limbs.
You can check your wounds to see if there are any signs of healing. I'm the most skilled healer in all of China; I can restore your wounds.
Since bragging doesn't cost anything, Wang Zheng took advantage of these bumpkins' lack of understanding of the situation in China.
Then Wang Zheng's expression changed, and he pointed to the mummified corpse in the distance, coldly saying:
"Of course, lying is bad behavior, and I don't encourage you to do it. If anyone lies, hehe..."
Then their only fate would be to become food for bloodsucking flies.
We welcome everyone to answer questions and point out any errors!
So, the first question is, why target Chinese soldiers? Whose orders are you receiving? And how many people like you are there?
Wang Zheng casually pointed to the middle-aged man who had first spoken to him and had his throat pierced by a long knife.
"You must be their captain, you go first."
The reason for choosing this person was twofold: firstly, Wang Zheng saw him as someone in charge, and secondly, his mouth was injured. If he couldn't speak, he could just cut him twice and feed him to the mosquitoes, which would also serve as a deterrent.
The main reason is that Wang Zheng dislikes him. He was the one who started the trouble in the first place. If it weren't for him, he might have known more information than his soldiers. He was the one who just went to feed the bloodsucking flies.
The middle-aged man initially wanted to argue that he had never targeted any Chinese soldiers and that he had only intended to test the waters.
However, after seeing Wang Zheng's cold expression and the expectant looks in his subordinates' eyes, he finally deflated like a punctured balloon and surrendered immediately.
Human nature is the most vulnerable to test, especially since the person in front of me is clearly fearless, and I'm currently on his turf, so dying would be pointless.
What was their motive for siding with the Demon King?
It's all for the sake of saving my life and getting ahead in life.
Hongsawaddy is now in complete chaos. The central government has long since fallen apart, warlords are everywhere, and the borders have been seized by a demon king. What's the point of being tough in this situation?
The thought of the blatant accusations he'd received from his underlings, who were clearly trying to report him for lying, sent a shiver down his spine.
Then, using his tongue, which had recovered somewhat under the Holy Light spell, he endured the pain and said:
"We are not targeting only Chinese soldiers. We will take action against any Chinese people who appear on the border, whenever we have the opportunity."
This is an order from the Lion King. Almost all the Hunsawaddy warriors operating on the border have already pledged allegiance to the Lion King; we have all received this order.
Wang Zheng looked thoughtfully at the three eager-to-report individuals around him. Seeing that they didn't rush to report him, he didn't give them a chance for the time being, fearing that they might collude to give the same testimony.
Moreover, right here, he didn't need to conduct separate interrogations, and he didn't understand these things anyway.
So Wang Zheng pointed to the guy with the curved knife who looked the most terrified among them.
"Come on, tell me, who is the Lion King? How big is his territory? Why is he so hostile to China?"
The man who had been holding the knife didn't expect to be called out this time, and hurriedly and hastily tried to speak.
"No one knows the origin of the Lion King. All that is known is that he is very strong. A few years ago, he suddenly appeared on the border as if he had just appeared out of nowhere."
After eliminating several minor warlord factions, he declared: Since the lion is the national animal of Hunsawaddy, then we should establish a nation that reveres beasts.
The Lion King now controls almost the entire border, and he has several demon kings under his command.
Wang Zheng then asked, "Where did you hear that you were attacking China under the leadership of the Lion King and the Peacock King? Would the Lion King reveal such a secret to you?"
The middle-aged man in the lead spoke up:
"Although there are many warlords in the country of Hongsawaddy and they fight fiercely, they formed an alliance after the Lion King destroyed two of them."
They knew how powerful the Lion King was, and that if they acted independently, they would only be defeated one by one. So now, whenever the Lion King made a move, they would join forces and launch a fierce attack.
The Lion King's strength was insufficient to contend with all the forces, and seeing that he could no longer develop within the country, he had no choice but to turn east.
However, the eastern border of China was the territory of the Peacock King.
The two factions initially fought over territory, but later somehow reconciled.
The Peacock King was stronger, and it was no secret that he had always wanted to conquer territories within China. Therefore, the two sides joined forces, intending to share in the spoils. This was part of the Lion King's long-standing nation-building plan, and hardly a secret.
Upon hearing about the alliance between the two demon king forces, Wang Zheng raised an eyebrow slightly.
He had heard Chu Tianxing say before that the reason why the country had not taken action against the Peacock King was because they wanted to rely on him to resist foreign forces.
But if the Peacock Demon King were to form an alliance with foreign beast forces, wouldn't that be shooting himself in the foot?
