Lin Shanhe waved his hand, killing all the officials from the Federal Government, and then said to Ye Fan, the director of the Martial Arts Bureau.
"Director Ye, it seems that Deputy Prime Minister Sun, who represents the Federal Government, is the protector behind the Ten Thousand Races Church and the greatest traitor to humanity."
"Shanhe is right. Director Ye, we must act quickly. We should show no mercy to the traitors of the Ten Thousand Races Church and kill them all." Ouyang Chengshan stated his decision to Ye Fan.
Deputy Prime Minister Sun's family and his associates were destined to become sacrifices in the power struggle between the military, the Martial Arts Bureau, and the Federal Government, and would serve as an example for the military and martial arts to correct the atmosphere.
"Marshal Ouyang, rest assured. I will lead the team myself. May I ask who will accompany me?" Ye Fan assured Ouyang Chengshan.
"Zhang Zhen, you will cooperate with Shanhe and Director Ye to apprehend the traitors of the Ten Thousand Races Church. I will go to the Federal Prime Minister's Office. I will wait for your triumphant return there." Ouyang Chengshan ordered Zhang Zhen and Lin Shanhe to assist Ye Fan in eliminating the targets, while he himself went to the Prime Minister's Office to pressure the Federal Prime Minister. After all, by the time everyone was eliminated, the Federal Government would be too late to react.
Executing first and then judging would certainly leave no unjust cases. Regardless of whether you were the Deputy Prime Minister or a high-ranking government official, if the military and the Martial Arts Bureau both declared you guilty, then you were guilty. If they declared you a traitor, then you were a traitor.
It just so happened that people like Zhang San and Li Si were still being held at the military headquarters and hadn't been killed yet. They could be put to use this time.
With witnesses and evidence present, it didn't matter if it proved your guilt or not; the goal was to eliminate you, especially since you made a move yourself.
After all, in these special times, those who wielded pens could not compete with those who wielded guns. When it came to ruthlessness and cunning, the old veterans who had experienced countless battles were the masters.
Splitting into two groups, Ouyang Chengshan led the Independent Regiment to the Prime Minister's Office: "Set up defenses, protect the Prime Minister's Office, and prevent the Ten Thousand Races Church from launching a desperate attack on the Prime Minister."
The security personnel at the Prime Minister's Office were bewildered. Was this old man out of his mind from fighting? Why was he deploying troops here?
Ouyang Chengshan presented his identification and, with his two sons, went directly to the Prime Minister's Office.
The Federal Prime Minister was the highest administrative official in charge of human internal affairs. Below him were four deputy prime ministers responsible for people's livelihood, resource allocation, healthcare, education, and scientific research.
The Military and the Martial Arts Bureau were two independent departments separate from the government. The Military was primarily responsible for combat operations on the front lines against the Ten Thousand Races, as there were no wars of aggression between nations in this era of unified humanity.
The Martial Arts Bureau was responsible for internal security within the human race, preventing criminal martial artists, the Ten Thousand Races Church, fierce beasts, and invaders from the Ten Thousand Races from causing destruction, and maintaining internal safety and stability for humanity.
Of course, the supreme commanders were the two supreme kings of humanity. Below the kings were two major organizations: the Inspectors and the Guardians, responsible for patrolling the human hinterland and guarding the spatial rifts.
Although these two organizations were not large in number, their members were at least Platinum-level martial artists.
This was the structure of human society today.
"Marshal Ouyang, what is this...?" Federal Prime Minister Hua Zhengguo asked with confusion.
Ouyang Zhongyong presented documents and reported to the Prime Minister: "Prime Minister, Lord Zhang Zhen and the guardian divine beast of the First Martial Arts Intermediate Academy, the Golden Flood Dragon, of Lord level, worked together with my father to kill the leader of the Ten Thousand Races Church, Jiang Tu, and two werewolf lords who passed through the spatial rift. Afterwards, through the interrogation of the remnants of the Ten Thousand Races Church, it was revealed that within the human race, besides the leader of the Ten Thousand Races Church, there was a high-ranking official hidden within the Federal Government system who intended to attack the Prime Minister's Office and assassinate the Prime Minister."
Prime Minister Hua Zhengguo quickly asked, "Who is this person? How could they be so insane?"
"There is complete evidence proving that this person is Deputy Prime Minister Sun. Director Ye Fan of the Martial Arts General Bureau, Marshal Zhang Zhen, and Lieutenant General Lin Shanhe of the Five-Star Army have already led teams to apprehend the individuals involved in this case and the remnants of the Ten Thousand Races Church."
Throughout the entire process, Ouyang Chengshan did not utter a single word. It was Ouyang Zhongyong who reported to Prime Minister Hua Zhengguo.
Hua Zhengguo sat silently in his chair. He knew that since Ouyang Chengshan mentioned Lin Shanhe, it indicated extreme dissatisfaction with the previous arrangements of the Federal Government. However, he never imagined that Lin Shanhe could recover and even advance to the Lord level.
Lord-level martial artists could no longer be called martial artists; they had transcended the human realm. Hua Zhengguo knew that with the mention of Lin Shanhe by Ouyang Zhongyong, the Lin family's staunch supporters, coupled with Lin Shanhe, now there were four Lords. And Ye Fan, who leaned towards the military.
This was an irresistible force when the Human Kings were not present. As for Deputy Prime Minister Sun's matter, he dared not gamble on whether it was true or false. In recent years, the Sun family's actions had indeed been excessive. Other things could be overlooked, but embezzling compensation for fallen soldiers and targeting military supplies and logistics was truly courting death.
Hua Zhengguo slowly said, "Thank you for your hard work, Marshal Ouyang. This time, it is thanks to Marshal Ouyang's keen observation and the military's efforts to avert disaster. Otherwise, our human race would have faced great trouble."
"After the soldiers on the front lines are shedding blood, such scum appears in the rear. It seems we must seriously rectify our internal affairs and not let our soldiers shed tears after shedding blood. We must ensure that the parents of the fallen have care and their children are provided for."
"Furthermore, we must guarantee the ample supply of materials for the front lines, so that soldiers do not sacrifice their lives in vain due to lack of supplies. After all, you are the first and last line of defense for humanity."
Ouyang Chengshan heard Hua Zhengguo's words and knew in his heart that the plan was successful. It seemed that not everyone in the Federal Government was corrupt.
"Prime Minister Hua is enlightened. I, on behalf of the soldiers on the front lines, thank you. However, I still hope that Your Excellency can conduct a thorough investigation within the government, so that a few 'roaches' do not ruin the unity of all humanity." Ouyang Chengshan spoke for the first time since entering the room.
It was not because Hua Zhengguo's conciliatory words made Ouyang Chengshan believe him. Before this plan, Ouyang Chengshan had received intelligence from the Military Intelligence Department stating that Hua Zhengguo had not participated in embezzlement or illegal appropriation of resources.
"Knock, knock, knock." A knock sounded at the door. Ye Fan, Zhang Zhen, and Lin Shanhe entered.
Ye Fan spoke first to Hua Zhengguo, reporting: "Prime Minister, according to intelligence from the Martial Arts Bureau and the Military, Deputy Prime Minister Sun Li is one of the main high-ranking figures behind the Ten Thousand Races Church. His accomplices include 256 government officials, 312 social elites and wealthy entrepreneurs, totaling 568 individuals. All have been exposed, and 450 who resisted have been executed on the spot." He then handed the report in his hand to Hua Zhengguo.
"Thank you for your hard work. And congratulations to General Lin on your recovery and your breakthrough to the Lord level," Hua Zhengguo said to Lin Shanhe.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. My injuries have finally healed after 15 years of suffering," Lin Shanhe said coldly. After all, if the Federal Government had been able to provide the cost to exchange for a Congenital True Spirit to treat him back then, he would not have had to wait 15 years. In the end, he only recovered thanks to his son's fortune.
