Upon hearing this, the ministers' eyes immediately hardened.
This guy not only killed his own father, but then sent his son to Great Liang and abandoned Nishu, who had worked so hard to resist Great Liang. Now he's about to abandon hundreds of thousands of soldiers outside.
Such a person's character is simply outrageous.
Expecting him to treat them well is simply impossible; it's better to hope that the Great Liang will treat prisoners well.
If we continue to follow this guy, we might become his next victims, just like his son did.
This kid has a super special move!
Ashley strode out and angrily rebuked, "You tyrant! You have ravaged my Frostwest for far too long. Rather than let you continue to lead us into the abyss, we'd rather send you on your way!"
Ashley!!!
Upon witnessing this scene, Ashina Tiandu's forehead veins bulged, and he glared fiercely at the second-in-command of Frostwest, his eyes filled with hatred.
When he rebelled, this guy just watched from behind. Now he actually took the initiative to become a dog of Great Liang. This made Ashina Tiandu.
He roared, " Ashley, do you know that once the Great Liang completely controls Frostwest, there will be no more Frostwest in the All Under Heaven, and even its traces will probably be erased?"
Your family's glory, the honor of your ancestors, all of it is gone...
Boom!
Just then, a deafening roar came from the city gate, and then the city gate collapsed completely. Great Liang had actually blown up the city gate.
In that case, the enemy will be able to get in!
Ashley's eyes showed a hint of anxiety, and he interrupted him directly, angrily saying, "Don't talk nonsense, you tyrant. What glory or not, aren't we still being your slaves?"
Since I'm already being treated like a beast of burden, it doesn't matter who I serve. Why do I have to be a dog for the Ashina Clan and then be discarded like trash?
If that were the case, wouldn't I be incredibly pathetic!
To put it bluntly, he was just working for the Ashina Clan, and his boss didn't treat him well, so why should he risk his life for such a boss?
Instead of desperately helping someone who doesn't value you, you might as well find a new boss.
"Rational!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement; though the words were crude, the truth was sound.
You, Ashina Tiandu sacrificing this person today and that person tomorrow. It's really too unsafe to follow you. It's much safer and more reliable to follow Great Liang.
puff!
Ashina Tiandu enraged by these words that he spat out a mouthful of blood. He roared, "I abandoned the Nishu back then for the greater good, for the sake of All Under Heaven living beings."
Are you suggesting that I, for the sake of Nishu, plunge all my subjects into crisis?
He didn't think he was wrong. If he hadn't given up voluntarily, he and his group would have been surrounded by Great Liang, and even more people would have died.
I'm sacrificing my own interests for the greater good; I'm doing this for the people of Frostwest.
"Pfft!"
Upon hearing this, one of the people in the crowd couldn't help but laugh out loud, saying sarcastically, "Your Majesty is right. We are now sacrificing our personal interests for the sake of All Under Heaven."
If Nishu can be sacrificed, why can't it be you?
As long as you, a remnant of the Ashina clan, commit suicide, we can easily surrender to the Great Liang, and the people will not suffer any harm. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?
Your Majesty, do it yourself!
Holy crap!
Upon hearing this, everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost, but it actually made perfect sense.
You, as emperor, always prioritize the greater good. Why don't you prioritize the greater good this time too? Just die yourself. That's perfectly reasonable.
Upon seeing that the speaker was Hu'er, Nishu's younger brother, it immediately felt perfectly natural.
After all, you sacrificed your own interests for the greater good of your brother, so now it's your turn. It makes perfect sense!
Kubo's eyes lit up, and he immediately said seriously, "Your Majesty, sacrificing your own interests for the greater good, the people of Frostwest will surely thank you!"
"Your Majesty, your death will benefit the greater good, and the world will remember you." Many ministers stood up and agreed with this view.
People are selfish, and naturally they don't want to die. Now that the Great Liang is powerful, it's clear that Frostwest can't be saved. They can't just die with the Great Liang.
We can't always be the ones making sacrifices while you reap all the benefits.
It's your turn now!
puff!
Ashina Tiandu, his anger practically spitting fire. He roared, "You bunch of traitors, how dare you plot against me! As the emperor, how can I be like you?"
Zela, come and kill him...!
Bang!
Before he could finish speaking, the Xiaoniu next to him had already knocked him unconscious with a hammer.
"Stop dawdling! To put it bluntly, everyone else can sacrifice themselves, but you can't? Get the hell out of here!" he cursed.
The enemy is already about to break in; there's no time for him to whine.
If we don't surrender now, we'll have absolutely no chance.
Zela's lips twitched, but he made no move. He knew that the situation was now settled, and His Majesty was destined to perish.
Ashley glanced at Zela and said in a deep voice, " Zela, I advise you to lay down your weapons and surrender. Since you are in charge of intelligence, you should know how terrible the Great Liang is now."
The Great West Empire may still exist, but I have received the latest news that more than 500,000 troops from the Great Liang have crossed the sea and have now entered the territory of the Great West Empire.
In this situation, you should understand the outcome!
The reason he suddenly took action against Ashina Tiandu was because he received this news, which made him lose all hope.
This was supposed to be a three-way alliance, but the Moses Empire only had about 100,000 people, so it was practically useless.
Now that the Great West Empire has been invaded by the Great Liang, it will likely be powerless to continue its advance soon. Therefore, the only chance for Frostwest is to defend its capital in this battle.
But now that the last glimmer of hope is gone, then it's all over.
Beep!
Zela sighed, dropped his weapon, and chose to give up the fight.
Seeing this, Ashley breathed a sigh of relief and then ordered the Frostwest army to give up resistance and surrender.
After giving the order, Ashley solemnly stepped aside and asked one of the people in the crowd, "Lord Wang, we have the situation under control. Please inform Ma Chao and Bai Zizai outside to show mercy!"
Hiss!
This scene caused Kubo and the others present to shrink in surprise; it turned out that Ashley had already sided with Great Liang.
Good heavens!
This fellow is really good at hiding his true intentions. Could it be that he had already betrayed us when he was placed in Xue Rengui's hands?
But there's no time to worry about that now. After all, Great Liang has already stormed in, and any further resistance would only be suicide.
Wang Xuance slowly walked out from the crowd.
