Chapter 836: Northern Side

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

In Vietnam’s territory to the north, Great Qin’s biggest obstacle was not the system main city faction, as there were only about 380 system main cities. Great Qin could destroy them all in one fell swoop, but the countless players would be quite troublesome.

They could unlimitedly revive, and even though Great Qin had Reality-Harming Talismans, if they forced the players into a corner, they would still retaliate. Great Qin wanted to devour a third of Vietnam’s territory in one go, and this would result in retaliation from all Vietnamese players.

Zhao Fu and his Generals summarized their plan into two major steps. The first was to get rid of the players. Because they were quite spread out throughout the various regions, Great Qin could not get rid of them quickly. If Great Qin could not get rid of them, it would not be able to devour so many regions and would definitely be obstructed.

Comparatively speaking, even though the many system main cities were much more powerful, they were all gathered together and would be easy to get rid of quickly.

The first step was to get rid of players while the second step was to get rid of system factions.

Of course, Great Qin could not personally act in getting rid of the players or else all of Vietnam would vigorously retaliate. This would be a foreign invasion and would invoke the fury of all Vietnamese players.

However, Great Qin did not have to act at all – it could rely on its chess piece in Vietnam, the ‘Vietnamese Guard.’ Great Qin had set up this piece from the very beginning and had invested a lot of resources into it; they couldn’t just have it sit there.

Zhao Fu had invested quite a lot of money into the Vietnamese Guard, and it was now the number one faction in Vietnam, surpassing even the governmental faction. With how kind and just it looked, it was loved by countless Vietnamese people.

From invasions from other countries to the system main city factions slaughtering players, it had stood up for Vietnamese players. It was a flag of light for Vietnam, and all Vietnamese people took delight in it.

Ly Qinqian, as the leader of the Vietnamese Guard, was loved by countless people. With her looks, she was publicly acknowledged to be the number one beauty in Vietnam. No one could compare to her looks, and many men from noble families pursued her.

However, she had refused every person, saying that with Vietnam’s matters at hand, she had put aside her own feelings and decided to give her life to Vietnam.

Such patriotism earned her the respect of countless people, and she was now the most popular woman in Vietnam.

However, no one could imagine that Ly Qinqian would be looking at a man seated above with such a flirtatious gaze. She was completely different from the righteous and selfless Ly Qinqian that the Vietnamese people knew.

After three years, she was no longer that innocent and na?ve woman. In terms of her temperament and abilities, she was completely different.

“Your task is to clear out all Vietnamese players; I will give you a large amount of money to mobilize the Vietnamese players,” Zhao Fu said to Ly Qinqian.

Ly Qinqian charmingly smiled and said in a soft voice, “Your Majesty, I will definitely accomplish this. However, Your Majesty, can’t you spoil me just this once? I’ve been preparing my body for Your Majesty this entire time.”

Everything that Ly Qinqian had was given to her by Zhao Fu; she clearly understood how much authority Zhao Fu wielded. Moreover, whether it was Zhao Fu’s looks or his power, they were all incredibly alluring. However, Ly Qinqian, of course, did not feel any deep love for Zhao Fu.

In this world, how many people could truly love with all of their heart? Even though humans loved to believe in this sort of love, it was not very common in reality.

To Ly Qinqian, Zhao Fu was someone who was worthy of making sacrifices for, worthy of loving, and worthy of accompanying. She quite liked Zhao Fu, but that did not have much to do with love.

Most of the women by Zhao Fu’s side were like this – they did not truly love Zhao Fu, as that was not very realistic. Apart from in novels, which man could make every woman truly love him? It was just that to them, Zhao Fu was the most suitable person.

Zhao Fu naturally understood this, so he did not let himself be affected too much.

Hearing Ly Qinqian’s words, Zhao Fu lightly laughed and nodded.

Ly Qinqian felt quite satisfied and smiled as she bowed before leaving, preparing to carry out what Zhao Fu had ordered.

Soon, a public notice sent Vietnam into a frenzy: ‘Vietnam is currently chaotic and without order, filled with crimes and immorality. The Vietnamese Guard will restore order for the future of Vietnam, punishing all evildoers and creating a bright future.’

The Vietnamese Guard was the largest faction in Vietnam, and with Great Qin’s support, it had surpassed the governmental faction. It now had ten million people, about one-eighth of the total population.

Now that it had made this public announcement, it naturally created large waves. This was largely supported, as everyone wanted for the light to cleanse the darkness.

For the ordinary people, they just wanted to live safely and peacefully; none of them enjoyed the chaotic situation of the world.

The Vietnamese Guard first cleared out the regions closest to Great Qin. There were still many Vietnamese players and indigenous residents there.

People from the Vietnamese Guard went to those regions and made announcements, saying, “All Vietnamese players must leave this place. The Vietnamese Guard will provide teleportation channels and some compensation. We need to construct defenses to defend against Great Qin here.”

Using defenses against Great Qin, many people were in support of this plan. Right now, Great Qin was their greatest threat, making all of Vietnam quite unsettled.

Even the governmental faction did not dare to openly go against Great Qin, yet the Vietnamese Guard had dared to do this. They were immediately praised, and their reputation surpassed that of the governmental faction.

Some people had been unwilling to leave, but after hearing that the Vietnamese Guard would be providing teleportation channels and compensation, most people were willing to cooperate and leave to other regions.

Just like that, the 15 regions near Great Qin were all mostly vacated, with just a small portion of people who would not pose much of a threat left.

Just like that, Great Qin was able to easily obtain 15 regions without using a single soldier, just some money. Now, there were still 105 regions to go.

The Vietnamese Guard put up an act of setting up some defenses, such as ghost formations and demon formations. All of them were to scare people, and they made countless people believe the Vietnamese Guard’s words.

The Vietnamese Guard not only had to convince the Vietnamese players, but it also had to convince the Vietnamese Guard’s members. Even though the Vietnamese Guard was controlled by Great Qin, it had only gathered so many Vietnamese players because of its rally of patriotism. Those Vietnamese players were loyal to Vietnam, not the Vietnamese Guard and Great Qin.

Over the next few days, the Vietnamese Guard made a big fuss in those 15 regions and did some rough checking. There was nothing unexpected, and they started to clear more regions.
