Chapter 406 Promoting World Peace
The leader of the Glorious Knights was extremely embarrassed, but he still had to say what he had to say. After all, there are no eternal enemies between countries, only interests.
"Hey! Lord Rabbit, there's no need to talk about the past." The Glorious Knights said, "Over the years, our Magic Kingdom has not launched another expedition to the East. We have always lived in peace. Isn't that good?"
The lying rabbit grinned: "It's hard to say. One day, your crusaders may come again, shouting something like 'For the blue and quiet Middle-earth. Humans are supreme, and subhumans are inferior races. Rabbits must be exterminated.'"
This is exactly the slogan shouted by the Crusades...
A few years ago, the Crusades went very smoothly at the beginning and they were almost invincible. The Holy See of Light became a little arrogant and started to attack everything they saw, always thinking they were invincible.
When the Lanlou Kingdom saw a small group of reinforcements sent by the Eastern Rabbit Tang Dynasty, they shouted, "The rabbit must be wiped out."
As a result, this slogan disturbed the rabbit's nest. The emperor of the Eastern Rabbit Tang Dynasty waved his hand and sent out 100,000 rabbit soldiers. They covered the mountains and plains, and all of them had long ears wagging.
That scene scared the Crusaders to death.
The leader of the Glorious Knights was so frightened that he fled in a panic, but was caught up by the Prostrate Rabbit, who cut his thigh with a move of the [Usagi Broken Sword].
It’s so embarrassing to look back on the past.
The leader of the Glorious Knights quickly explained, "This is a different time. The organization that launched the Crusades was called the Holy See of Light. They have now been destroyed, and even the Pope is dead. There will be no more Crusades in the future. We promise."
Lying Rabbit: "Oh? Can you really guarantee that?"
The leader of the Glorious Knights: "Of course! If you don't believe me, just send someone to check it out and you'll know. The Cathedral of Light has been bombed into ruins."
Lying Rabbit: "Oh! I will believe you for now. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Anyway, if the Crusaders dare to come again, we can defeat them. So, what is the matter that you contacted me today?"
The head of the group said, "Today I want to discuss a business with you... Recently, there is an impostor in our country, pretending to be the king, raising an army to cause chaos and committing crimes. Our country wants to borrow 50,000 elite soldiers from the Tang Dynasty..."
Lying Rabbit: "Ah? Borrowing troops?"
Head of the delegation: "Afterwards, our country will withdraw from the competition in Central Asia. We will withdraw our troops from all the small countries and neutral areas there, and give the entire Silk Road to your country. How do you think?"
The lying rabbit showed an excited expression: "Oh, this sounds like a good deal."
The captain was delighted, and Ugumantai and the Blackhearted Wizard, who were listening beside the crystal ball, could not help but be delighted as well. Was it so easy to borrow 50,000 elite soldiers?
The leader of the Glorious Knights turned his head and said in a low voice: "The Rabbit Country has a million troops. Lending 50,000 is nothing to them, so it will be easy to accomplish."
Ugumantai: "Rabbits are really fertile."
At this moment... the rabbit lying on the ground opposite the crystal ball was suddenly attracted by something outside the screen. He turned his head and looked to the side: "Ah? Someone wants to see me?"
Another bunny man's voice came from outside the screen: "Protector of the Western Regions, there is a man who claims to be the 'Captain of the Eastern Knights' who wants to see you. He said that he used to be from Lanlou Country, but was later captured by the Magic Kingdom and made a slave. Now he has finally escaped from slavery and become the captain of the Eastern Knights. He wants to talk to you."
Lying Rabbit: "Oh, you are from Lanlou Country? That's great! Call them over so I can take a look."
Soon, a middle-aged man walked into the picture.
The Captain of the Glorious Knights recognized this man at a glance. It was his own slave soldier captain... The captain also saw the Captain of the Glorious Knights through the crystal ball. The two of them glared at each other through the crystal ball, and both of them had unpleasant expressions.
The leader of the Eastern Knights held a crystal ball in both hands and handed it to the Rabbit. "My Lord Protector of the Western Regions, the legitimate heir to the Magic Kingdom, Queen Elizabeth X, would like to have a few words with you in person. This is a special communication crystal ball."
The rabbit took the crystal ball and deliberately placed it in front of the crystal ball used to communicate with the Glorious Knights. The two crystal balls were placed side by side, and they ate fruits. This time, it actually turned into a three-party meeting.
The screen lit up, and Elizabeth appeared in the crystal ball, with a noble appearance and a confident smile: "Hello, friend from Dongtu Datang."
Crouching Rabbit: "Hi! Hello. Oh, you look like a good guy, but the Glorious Knights don't look like good guys."
The leader of the Glorious Knights: “…”
Ugumantai: "..."
Elizabeth: “…”
Several people were speechless at the same time.
Zhang Jingyi suddenly interrupted and said with a smile: "Master Rabbit, you can't judge a person by his appearance, and you can't measure the depth of the sea."
He actually said this in the language of the Rabbit Country, and it was a proverb of the Rabbit Country. This time, Ugumantai didn't even understand: "What is he saying?"
The leader of the Glorious Knights understood what he heard, and said in a sweat, "He seems to be saying a proverb from the Eastern Rabbit Tang Dynasty, which seems to say that you can't judge a person by appearance... My God, what's wrong with Zhang Jingyi?"
The lying rabbit suddenly perked up: "Huh? It's not strange that you can speak our language, but it's a bit outrageous that you can use proverbs. Who are you?"
Zhang Jingyi: "I can not only say proverbs, but also recite poems. I left home when I was young and returned when I was old. I knocked on the wooden door but it didn't open. Outside the city of Gusu, my shirt was wet, and a red apricot branch was growing outside the wall."
Ugumantai: “What does this poem mean?”
The leader of the Glorious Knights looked confused: "I don't understand this time either."
Lying Rabbit: "You two uneducated savages, you don't understand this. Let me tell you, this poem is about a man who left home when he was young and came back when he was very old. He knocked on the door for a long time but no one opened it. It turned out that his wife had cheated on him and was eating the forbidden fruit with her lover. Even her clothes were soaked with sweat..."
"puff!"
Ugumantai couldn't help it and sprayed.
The lying rabbit grinned at Zhang Jingyi: "Oh, I like you. What I like most are foreigners who like our culture."
Zhang Jingyi: "I am not a foreigner. Although I wear Western clothes, my heart is still Chinese."
"Okay, okay!" Lying Rabbit: "You guys came to see me too, what do you want to say?"
Zhang Jingyi: "What I want to say is actually very simple. The Magic Kingdom is in a civil war. The guys in the crystal ball over there are all conspirators who want to usurp power. I hope that the East Rabbit Tang Dynasty will not help them, otherwise it will become the unjust party, which is not in line with the fine traditions and glorious image of the East Rabbit Tang Dynasty. I suggest that the East Rabbit Tang Dynasty sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. After we successfully rectify the chaos and suppress the rebellion, we will establish diplomatic relations with the East Rabbit Tang Dynasty! Become a friendly country, increase trade exchanges, and promote world peace."
