Huo Wenton knew very well what his words meant. He also understood what he had agreed to. The so-called "I can't help it." At this moment, the governor's heart was extremely complicated. There was frustration, helplessness, heartache, and unwillingness, but there was also a trace of pleasure that made him feel extremely twisted.
Don't make a deal with the devil.
Huo Wenton had listened to this sentence countless times since he was young. Looking at the calm and gentle Emperor on the screen, Huo Wenton felt that he had encountered the most ferocious demon.
Even worse, and even more damn, he was making some shameful deals with him.
And he didn't even have room to resist.
The situation of the war is in his grasp.
His two daughters also went to the Divine Continent Empire.
His own political future was also closely linked to his own.
How to resist?
How?
Do you really want to risk everything?
Just how much courage would it take?
Whenever he thought of the consequences of rebelling against the emperor, or even betraying him, Huo Wenton would tremble. That was something he could not afford, and would never be able to bear.
From the start of his deal with the Emperor, he had taken his Horvington Group to the highest level in history in an almost explosive manner. However, as he grew stronger step by step, Horvington discovered that he would never leave the royal family again in his life.
Even if he becomes president of the United States.
Betraying the royal family?
What was certain was that as long as he did this, he would become the next Dabinett, even more miserable than Dabinett.
No matter how desolate Dabinett's fate was, the two giants under him, Secretary Hisith and Governor Yalatu, had only abandoned him when they were helpless.
But what about him?
At the thought of this, Huo Wenton could only smile bitterly.
The governor of Lonemoon, Teglas, who was now in the ancient city, Marine Corps Commander Scana was a complete pair of wolves in sheep's clothing. The most important thing was that for half a month in the ancient city, the two of them had replaced the real Teglas and Scana without revealing any flaws. On the contrary, the two of them were now completely integrated into the higher-ups of the United States, making it impossible for anyone to distinguish between them.
Even Huo Wenton, who knew that they were fakes, felt this way.
Most of the time, when the three of them were chatting together, Hawenton felt as if he was really chatting with Teglas and Scana.
The way of thinking, habitual movements, emphasis on words, eating habits, and so on that the two of them displayed were exactly the same as the real Teglas and Scana. Their performance caused Huo Wenton, who had originally planned to separate himself from the royal family at the right time, to feel utter despair.
This completely meant that the royal family's intelligence system was terrifying to the point where they knew everything about the higher-ups of the United States. In such a situation, as long as he dared to resist, then Scana or Teglas would immediately kill him and then send a fake Howington over. How terrifying was this?
Not to mention the impersonation of Teglas and Scana, for so long, the two of them had even publicly interviewed the real lovers of Teglas and Scana, but after that, their lovers did not notice anything unusual.
This was enough to show how much the imperial family's intelligence system had penetrated. Similarly, it meant that if the imperial family really took out a fake Huo Wenton, even his wife, the famous beauty in American politics, would not be able to tell the truth.
Whenever he thought of this, Huo Wenton's heart turned cold.
Right now, he was in a high position of power and above ten thousand people, but when facing the imperial clan, he had already lost all the qualifications to resist.
We can only cooperate.
Only cooperation.
No matter what the content of the cooperation was, he could only agree to it.
For example, since the Emperor had said that the formation of the super legion that specialized in dealing with the affairs of Lonely Continent was in the name of discussion, Huo Wenton knew very well that this was something that could not be rejected at all.
If the emperor wanted him to do it, he had to do it, and he had to do it with all his might.
Ask Reid to be the first deputy commander of this super legion, Looks good, Of course, it's actually pretty good, Because the emperor said, Whoever holds the position of commander of this super legion, He wouldn't live long. At that time, for the sake of the stability of the new legion and the strength of the Howington Group, he would be able to push Admiral Reid to the position of Commander. As a result, he would naturally enter the War Command. It was just that he was a little late. At that time, Howington's voice in the War Command would be completely stable.
How good?
Standing on Huo Wenton's own side, it was really good.
However, from the standpoint of the United States, such an outcome was terrible.
This was because what the emperor needed was a stage victory, even a decisive victory.
The death of the commander of the new legion was part of the victory, but not all of it.
With the death of the new corps commander, this new corps, which had an army of about 300,000 meters, was likely to be damaged, beaten to pieces, and suffered heavy losses.
Only in this way could it be considered a decisive victory.
The Emperor's words were already very clear. At that time, he would need the cooperation of Admiral Reid.
With his cooperation, the entire new legion would have no secrets to speak of. Under such circumstances, how much advantage would the Lonemoon Imperial Army, which already had an advantage in numbers and had sufficient combat strength, have?
Once the new legion was crippled, the royal family's stability in Lonemoon Continent would increase countless times unless the United States was willing to give up the war with the Divine Continent Empire and clash with the royal family over nearly 700,000 square kilometers of Lonemoon Continent.
However, if this was the case, without the threat of war happening in front of their homes, the Divine Continent Empire's army would continue to enter Lonely Continent. In this way, it would be equivalent to the United States being knocked on by the Divine Continent Empire.
Once such a thing happened, the situation in the United States would be unprecedentedly difficult.
In other words, for the sake of a spot in the war headquarters, Huo Wenton would personally bury 100,000, or even 200,000, or even more elite rice troops.
Looks like we're getting what we need.
But is that really fucking true?
"What are you worried about?"
On the screen, the Emperor looked at Huo Wendon's uncertain expression and asked with interest.
"I'm worried..."
Huo Wenton paused and said bitterly, "In the end, what kind of country will you give me?"
"Anyway, it will be what you want."
The Emperor smiled. "You're hesitating, Mr. Governor."
"I can't help but hesitate, because if I do this, I will push the entire United States into the abyss. I, Hawington, the only candidate for the next presidency, will personally push my country into the abyss. Do you understand this feeling?"
Huo Wenton said excitedly.
"I don't understand."
The Emperor said mercilessly, "But you must understand one thing. If it weren't for me and the royal family, all of your life would have been trampled on by Yurisses and Dabinett. This should be a hundred times worse than what you are worried about now."
"Mr. Governor, I must remind you one thing. If you want to make a big contribution to this war, I advise you to give up as soon as possible. It's impossible for you to cooperate with the royal family. The United States still has a future. You also have a future. If you reject the royal family..."
The Emperor smiled, his laughter a little cold.
"I know, I understand."
"I don't have a choice right now, do I?" Huo Wendon smiled bitterly and spread out his hand.
"There it goes."
The emperor nodded, "Your only choice is to cooperate with me. Only in this way can the United States not be truly doomed. Otherwise, who can guarantee what will happen to the United States?"
Huo Wenton remained silent.
"If I were you, I wouldn't be worried about the current situation in the United States. I would only consider the future development of the United States and how to convince Admiral Reid."
The Emperor continued.
Huo Wenton's expression changed, and then he relaxed. He persuaded Admiral Reid that it was difficult to say it was difficult, but it was also simple. Although he wanted to communicate with Admiral Reid about something suspected of treason, this kind of thing was not difficult for Huo Wenton.
"I see."
After a moment of silence, Huo Wenton nodded heavily.
"Then let's do it."
The Emperor casually waved his hand and turned off the video.
Huo Wenton stood in front of the screen, his body stiff and dull, he didn't know what he was thinking.
A sudden knock on the door interrupted Huo Wenton's thoughts.
He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Come in!"
The door to the study was pushed open.
"Mr. Governor, President Yurisses has just called. Twenty minutes later, there will be a high-level meeting in his office. It's an emergency meeting. You should prepare in advance," Huo Wenton's secretary said hurriedly.
Emergency high-level meeting?
Huo Wenton was slightly stunned for a moment, then nodded silently.
Evidently, this meeting was most likely the opportunity the Emperor had warned to form a new legion.
