People in Terra, poor and weak but invincible

Chapter 234 A Hopeless Country

Qi Yan silently watched Ernesto, who was gradually becoming agitated, and his expression remained calm the whole time.

After Ernesto paused for a breath, he raised his eyebrows and said:

"Finished?"

Seeing Ernesto nod gloomily, Qi Yan continued:

“So your father, Pancho, who calls himself the true Bolivarian, decided to start a riot during the busiest time of the year in Dos Solès.

He wants to overthrow Candela's rule in this city, take it for himself, and then go to war, right?"

Ernesto nodded again.

"Where does Pancho's capital come from? Where does Pancho's military strength come from? Where does Pancho's confidence come from?"

Qi Yan asked three questions at once, and then waited silently for Ernesto's answer.

But Ernesto just remained silent.

He knew these problems, but he couldn't express them.

Especially after what he had just said, the answers to these questions made him feel ashamed.

Qi Yan smiled slightly and began to ask and answer his own questions:

“Pancho has the support of Letania, he has received funding, and even the rebel team he organized this time may contain a large number of Letania’s troops.

In fact, Pancho never had confidence. He didn't think he could win, or if he won, he could withstand the pressure from the two giants, Letania and Colombia.

Pancho wanted to occupy Dos Solás, not because he really saw the hope of Bolivar's independence, but because he pretended to be working hard for an illusory goal.

You should know that in this situation, even if Pancho wins this fight, what will happen to Dosorez."

Silence, long silence.

Ernesto and his men didn't know how to refute Qi Yan's words.

Qi Yan was not in a hurry and waited silently there.

He hoped that the answer would come from Ernesto himself.

Qi Yan's patience turned into a heavy pressure in Ernesto's heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

“Dosorez will exist in name only, becoming like other suffering city-states in Bolivar, occupied and enslaved by the two great powers.”

Ernesto's voice was dry and he said with difficulty: "My father will eventually die, killed by foreign enemies or even in civil strife, and then his position will be replaced by the next person. That person will choose a big country to rely on and become the other party's lackey to maintain his own ruling position.

Bolivar, there is no hope. "

"elder brother?"

For the first time, La Fiela took the initiative to speak.

Ernesto shook his head at her, signaling her not to speak, and continued to look at Qi Yan.

At this moment, the look he gave Qi Yan no longer contained any hostility, only inquiry.

Qi Yan grinned, revealing a brilliant smile, and asked again:

"Then why did you choose to follow Pancho?"

“Because I’m unwilling to accept it.”

Ernesto took a deep breath and said dryly: "I love Bolivar, this is my country, I don't want to see it go to destruction step by step with endless despair.

I don't know if this is right or wrong, but I want to try.

If my father succeeds, I will be by his side and try to extend this path further.

If my father had failed, I would have accepted it all and become a Candela supporter.

If I die... then I die, haha."

At the end, Ernesto also imitated Qi Yan, grinning and letting out a few stiff laughs.

Qi Yan curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Your smile is so ugly, you should continue to look sad."

Ernesto: “…”

He restrained his smile and asked proactively:

"I have answered so many questions, please answer my questions seriously. Why did you find me? What is your purpose?"

"I'm not kidding you, my target is you... Don't retreat, and don't cover your butt, or I'll beat you to death!"

Qi Yan threatened Ernesto sternly, and when he saw that the latter had successfully stopped his actions, he continued:

“I admire your character. You are very suitable to join Rhodes Island. You are confused now. You don’t know where Bolivar’s future lies and what you should do.

But once you find your goal, you will become the most determined idealist, moving towards the highest ideals in your heart. This land needs people like you.

There are many people in Rhodes Island who are confused like you, and there are also many people who have found their goals and are working hard for them. I hope you can become our companion. "

Ernesto had an odd expression on his face.

He didn't know how to describe his feelings now.

"So you're going to expose my plan, make me fail utterly, and then have to flee and accept your invitation?"

Ernesto wanted to be angry, but he didn't dare to really offend Qi Yan, otherwise he, his men, and La Fiela would probably not be able to get out of this alley.

"I'll say it again. I'm a straight-talker and I hate riddlers the most, with the exception of the old lynx."

Qi Yan said seriously: "My style of doing things is indeed taboo-free, I can say anything, and I have no interest in playing tricks.

Your plan will not be interrupted because of this. Candela will not stop you. She will wait until you have arranged everything, and then slowly appreciate your resistance and struggle. "

"You seem to know her well."

Ernesto frowned and said, "And I can guarantee that my plan is very secretive, but in front of you, it's like I'm defenseless and you know everything about it. Who are you?"

Qi Yan shrugged and said regretfully:

"I'm sorry I can't answer your question. Actually, I don't mind telling you the truth, but because of a poor guy, I have to use my poor acting skills to finish this scene."

Ernesto's frown deepened.

He discovered that, although the guy in front of him spoke very straightforwardly, there were more and more mysteries surrounding him.

Under Ernesto's gaze, Qi Yan scratched his ears and said helplessly:

"Aren't you tired of standing and talking like this all the time?

Maybe we can find a bar, sit down and have a drink, and talk slowly. Don't worry about Candela causing trouble for you, she will just pretend nothing happened."

"I still don't understand why she didn't stop us in advance," Ernesto asked.

"Because she doesn't care."

……

……

"Doctor, stop being so silly while holding on to that trophy of yours."

Mastema called out, but found that the doctor seemed not to have heard her and was still happily playing with the trophy in his arms.

She sighed helplessly and turned to look at the Patriot:

"Grandpa, Fiameta, Ya'er and I are going out shopping. Let's go buy whatever you want for dinner."

"No need to bother." The Patriot shook his head and said, "We are also going to go out and set up a stall."

Mostima nodded and left the hotel with her sisters.

The Patriot withdrew his gaze, and seeing that Jie was already impatient, he took the initiative to walk over and wake the doctor up from his own little world.

After explaining the situation, he was about to turn around and count the ingredients to be prepared today, but was stopped by the doctor.

"Grandpa, Brother Jie, we won't set up a stall today."

Jie's eyes widened immediately, and he asked in surprise, "Why? This city's income in one night is equal to what I earn in Longmen in two to three days!"

The doctor carefully placed the trophy on the table, then turned around and said in a serious tone:

"Aren't you curious about the white-haired dog's abnormal behavior today?"

Jie didn't say anything, but the patriot asked in confusion:

"This is not his normal operation. In the beginning, the Integration Movement was ruined by him. It was terrible."

"really."

The doctor laughed, then shook his head and said, "But this guy is not just looking for fun, just like he infiltrated the Integration Movement to save people and teach Amiya some truths.

So this time he suddenly joined Ernesto's rebellion team, there must be a certain purpose, I plan to find out. "

"What do you want to do?" asked the Patriot.

"Go take a closer look at this city."
