Daedalus asked quickly, and the guard lowered his head and said:
"There is no news from General Sisk, and the enemy's portal is still running. I'm afraid General Sisk's team is in danger!"
"Really, call the other generals over, we need to discuss the next thing!"
Daedalus lay down on the bed frustrated, and then said to the guard. The guard nodded and walked out of the tent to call the other generals.
Soon, Yasha and several other generals opened the door of the tent and walked in. Then at Daedalus's signal, they sat on the stool beside the bed.
"This attack failed. The enemy's strength has become stronger. Xisk and the others have also failed. I'm afraid we have missed the best opportunity to eliminate them. As one goes and the other goes, we will become more and more weak. What do you do?
look?"
Daedalus asked weakly. Although he did not suffer any internal injuries due to his strong body, his head was still dizzy.
"Retreat to the main city! We should stick to the main city and then ask for help from other countries. Their invasion is by no means just targeting our country. This is something that the entire continent will face. They cannot stay aloof!"
Yasha said, but his words were quickly refuted by another general.
"But the Seljuks have never needed help from others since the founding of their country, and we can destroy them!"
"Don't be too blindly confident. Your arrogance will destroy our country! We just experienced a defeat!"
Yasha immediately spoke up. It was obvious that the two of them were not very good at dealing with each other. Seeing that there was a tendency to quarrel, another general quickly came out to smooth things over and said:
"It's useless for us to discuss here. Your Majesty is still injured. Why don't we go back to the city first and then convene the parliament to discuss and decide!"
"Okay, just do as you say! Let's go back to the city first, and then convene the members to convene the National Assembly. The moment of life and death for Seljuk has arrived!"
Daedalus was a little tired looking at the blind and arrogant general, so he said, in fact, this is a common problem shared by most Seljuks. They have been strong for too long. In Slovakia, the Seljuks are not afraid of anything.
The opponent, even Pandro, a barbaric country that advocates nature, is not willing to touch the Seljuks' brows. If they had not lived in the deep forest, the Seljuks would have invaded this powerful neighbor long ago.
It is precisely because of such long-term victory that the Seljuks have developed blind self-confidence. Although this kind of self-confidence makes the Seljuks invincible, it will also gradually destroy the Seljuks. It is precisely because of this kind of
As the number of people increases, some reckless men like the one who quarreled with Yasha just now will be elected as generals.
Daedalus has always wanted to correct this trend. This invasion of the demon world is a very good opportunity. The Seljuks have just experienced a defeat that has not happened in decades, but Daedalus is very worried. He is afraid of this.
One trial will be the end of the Seljuks. After all, the enemy is getting stronger and stronger, and they have no way to win in a frontal battle.
The next day, Daedalus arrived at the conference square with the support of his son Icarus. The open-air square was surrounded by stairs-like seats. At this time, it was already half full, and people continued to enter.
The first row of the meeting square is composed of Daedalus and Seljuk generals, who are the highest-ranking Seljuk people. Then the next few rows are Seljuk MPs, elected by the masses.
The decision was made among the citizens, both men and women. The last ones were the various representatives of the Seljuqs, mostly representatives of some villages and edge cities.
"People of Seljuk, the moment of life and death for Seljuk has arrived, but we still cannot decide on an effective response method, so we need your help to make a decision today!"
Daedalus said after seeing that the venue was almost full and the time was up. Then he looked at the reactions of everyone in the venue and continued:
"Now, facing a powerful enemy, our generals have two opinions: one is to rely on our own strength to fight the enemy to the end, and the other is to stick to the city and ask for help from other countries. After all, this is not our own business, but a matter of concern.
The entire continent, I believe that everyone who is doing this has already received the iron pieces representing the two opinions. The two numbers one and two are respectively engraved on them, corresponding to the two opinions I just mentioned.
One hour to discuss and make a decision, and after an hour you put your tickets into a jar in the center of the venue, and then we will count the votes on the spot!”
After saying that, Daedalus leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest, and noisy discussions immediately broke out in the venue.
"We should ask for help. The enemy is very strong and we cannot bet with the future of our country!"
"You coward, is that new female slave you acquired so powerful that it makes your bones weak? We are Seljuks, we are invincible, and your actions really insult the spirit passed down by our ancestors.
The Seljuks are not afraid of struggle!"
The voices of those who choose to ask for help are obviously weaker than those who rely on themselves. The arrogance of the Seljuk people has been engraved in their bones, making it difficult for them to think calmly when it comes to racial honor.
An hour later, people at the venue lined up in an orderly manner and put their votes into the jar. Then two vote counters came out, smashed the jar and began to count the votes inside.
"There were 271 votes in total, of which 53 voted for one, 210 voted for two, and eight people threw stones and abstained!"
The teller spent half an hour carefully counting the votes and shouted loudly. Daedalus and Asa couldn't help but sigh softly. Even if he is a king, he cannot act arbitrarily and must be controlled by the kingdom.
The voice of the generals and the people of the second right. After all, the Seljuk king system was actually established after the parliament.
The general who quarreled with Yasha looked at Yasha contemptuously with the eyes of a victor, as if he looked down on Yasha, and showed a victor's smile after Yasha sighed. Daedalus quickly adjusted his state.
With the help of Icarus, he stood up and said:
"Now that the people have made their choice, I declare that the Seljuks have officially entered a state of full combat readiness. Let us kick their butts, stuff them back into their mothers' wombs, and let them know that provoking the Seljuks is dangerous.
What a stupid act!"
"Ho! Long live Seljuk!!! Seljuk will win!!!"
In the venue, everyone was mobilized and roared loudly, but Daedalus knew that this battle was in danger, and he was already planning a follow-up response in his mind.
