Chapter 350 Disposal
With the Primarch and his legions blocking the way on all sides, the opposition forces who tried to escape were naturally captured without any resistance.

At the same time, Odin, who had been thrown into the crowd by Roland before, also moved, and cleanly killed all the opponents in the crowd who tried to take hostages.

The suppressed opposition looked at the nine primarchs who remained calm and Odin who chose to backstab them without hesitation, and they all regretted it.

They were too greedy. Roland's fishing method was obviously very primitive and old-fashioned, but when faced with the bait Roland laid out, they couldn't help but open their mouths and take a bite.

Despicable, they actually use fishing enforcement as a trap, so abominable!

Some of the opponents glared at Roland and shouted loudly.

"Chairman, this is unjust. We heard that you were imprisoned and came to rescue you."

Although they were very angry about Roland's sting operation, they were not fools. The current situation was that they had all been arrested. If they continued to be stubborn, they would really be sent to prison.

Although Roland was very gentle to everyone in the War Committee, even if some problems arose during the war preparation plan in the past few years, Roland would not kill them all, but would patiently educate and guide them.

However, Roland's gentleness and patience are only reserved for his own people.

The opposition had not forgotten Roland's bloody and brutal methods during the civil war and the Great Purge. No matter what their background, status, strength or military exploits were, they would stand in Roland's way.

If he said he would kill their whole family, then he really meant to kill their whole family.

During the civil war and the Great Purge, the entire war committee had no idea how many noble families with a long history had been exterminated by Roland.

Moreover, even during the war council's war preparation period, although Roland was gentle, he still did not show mercy. Those who violated the Golden Rule and should be killed according to the law were all executed without mercy.

According to the Golden Rule, if they were found guilty of rebellion, they would be sentenced to death.

If Roland really goes into hibernation, then they can just rebel. As long as they successfully control the dormant Roland, then they will have the right to interpret the Golden Law, and they will have the final say on who is rebelling.

Unfortunately, Roland did not fall into hibernation. On the contrary, the information they received was most likely that Roland had sent him out to fish.

Although it is not clear why Roland is fishing? Is it just to catch them? No, right?
But if they really choose to fish for the purpose of catching them, then they will be in trouble.

In short, they could only beg for mercy.

Although they believed that they had more people and more power, and had made military achievements, and had just ended the war against the greenskins, Roland couldn't really attack them right after the war, right?
As the saying goes, the law does not punish the masses, and besides, they haven't really rebelled yet, right? At most, they can only be considered to have trespassed into the palace.

If they were really killed, even Roland wouldn't be able to convince the rest of the committee, right?
So, Roland could only punish them, or at most erase their military achievements? He wouldn't really kill them, right?
Probably not.

perhaps.

The opponents who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy had all sorts of thoughts in their heads. They cried to Roland with excuses they had prepared in advance, trying to portray themselves as loyal subjects who came to save Roland.

Although the opposition felt that Roland would not attack them, they were still somewhat afraid when they thought of Roland's cold-bloodedness during the civil war and the Great Purge. Roland might still kill them all, and they did not want to die.

Listening to the opposition's complaints, Roland glanced at them calmly and spoke slowly.

"Alright, you mobilized troops without orders and trespassed into the central government. No matter what your reasons are, behave yourself and be prepared to be investigated. If there is no problem, I will let you go back."

Hearing Roland's words, the opposition was overjoyed.

Based on Donnar's previous coup experiences, if a coup failed, the perpetrators would generally be killed on the spot, so there would be no detention or interrogation process.

I would rather kill someone by mistake than let anyone go.

And if they were not killed at the beginning, it generally meant that the monarch did not intend to care about it.

That's good, because it means Roland has no intention of killing.

I guess fishing is just an attempt to weaken their power.

Although the cost of weakening power is not low, it is better to be alive than to die.

Therefore, the opponents who thought they understood Roland's hint did not choose to fight to the death, but were obediently taken away and imprisoned by the Primarch and his legions.

As they walked obediently with their heads down, they were also calculating what price they would have to pay to escape from the failed coup.

However, what they didn't see was that Roland looked at them with eyes full of indifference.

After they were all taken away by the Primarch's soldiers, Odin dusted himself off, walked to Roland's side, and asked in a low voice.

"Chairman, how do we deal with these people?"

"Where's the list?"

Roland did not answer Odin's question, but chose to answer the question with a question.

After hearing Roland's words, Odin also took out a list from his arms.

Since the main planners of the coup were Odin and Tula, the opposition members who participated in the coup were basically under their control.

Although the opposition was very careful in disguising themselves, it must be understood that Apocalypse was the capital of the War Council.

As a city that developed from the Old Apocalypse period, no local forces have emerged within it. All aspects are firmly controlled by the central government, and the movement of population cannot be concealed from the administrative department.

Moreover, as the capital, Apocalypse was not only equipped with a large number of magic arrays by Roland, but also with the latest strange devices. The opposition's tricks could not be hidden from them at all.

In addition, there are many loyalists within the opposition. In recent days, the Executive Committee and the Administrative Department have often received reports that the military may join forces with the opposition to launch a coup.

Even people in the military noticed that something was wrong, and some impatient superhumans even went straight to attack Tula and Odin.

If it weren't for the evidence Roland provided them, the loyalists within the military would have dealt a heavy blow to Odin and Tula and executed them as traitors to the country.

Among the troops brought by the opposition this time, most of the ordinary soldiers were loyalists. When Roland showed up, none of them put up any resistance. Some even glared at the opposition after they realized they were being used.

If it weren't for the Primarch's soldiers protecting them, these opponents would have been killed by the soldiers.

In addition, many of the close associates of the opposition who knew about the rebellion had stabbed them in the back and reported them secretly.

Although some of the confidants felt that rebellion had no future, they chose to report it after all, so Roland would not make things difficult for them.

It can only be said that in this rebellion, the top leaders were Roland's people. Although the bottom leaders were not clear about the situation, they were all loyalists. Among the backbone forces, more than half were loyalists, with only a dozen opponents and some of their confidants who remained loyal.

In this situation, Roland didn't know how he lost.

Roland took the list from Odin and simply flipped through it.

Although the list records all those who have rebellious ideas, it is divided into three types based on their final choices.

The first type: having the intention of rebellion, but ultimately choosing to give up and not participating in the rebellion.

The second type: those who knew about the rebellion, hesitated and finally decided to report it, and also participated in the rebellion. The third type: the opposition who are stupid and bad and really want to rebel.

Roland looked at the list and said calmly.

"These stupid and evil opposition members should all be examined, and if there is no problem, they should all be killed."

"As for those who reported it, we will also examine them all. If there are any idiots who think they are smart and are trying to have their cake and eat it too, we will kill them too."

"As for those who have given up, send someone to investigate. If there are any problems, they should be fined or killed. Even if there are no problems, they should be included in the supervision list."

Listening to Roland's words, Odin pursed his lips and said.

"They are not ordinary people, they are all meritorious warriors. Do we really have to kill them all?"

"Ah."

Roland nodded and said calmly.

"Just because they have made contributions is not a reason for them to act willfully. I know that this is the result of my fishing. I may kill innocent people. I will bear all the consequences."

Odin pursed his lips and spoke hesitantly.

"Chairman, killing the hero right after the end is not good news for your reputation. The United Army may have objections to this."

"Them? So what if they have an opinion?"

Roland said calmly.

Odin looked up at Roland and said hesitantly.

"Chairman, the nobles of the United Army have been contacting us recently and are willing to help us complete the unification."

"so what?"

Roland looked at Odin and spoke calmly.

"If word gets out about this, they might hesitate."

"If you hesitate, then hesitate."

"Chairman, don't you intend to peacefully integrate the United Army?"

Hearing Odin's words, Roland shook his head and spoke calmly.

"What's the point of winning over a bunch of useless insects?"

"Peaceful integration? Ha, they won't hand over the power they have. Peaceful integration has conditions."

Odin was silent for a moment and nodded silently.

Roland sneered and said.

"The conditions for peaceful reunification are not simple. They probably think that we are practicing aristocratic politics like the previous Donar countries. I don't care about that. If you want autonomy, there is no way."

"Kan'aozu is dead, the Green Tide is no longer a threat, and the committee does not need more committee provinces to compromise. They can either go away or die."

Odin looked at Roland, the knight who showed no mercy to the green-skinned orcs, and a hint of hesitation appeared on his face. She spoke in a low voice.

"Chairman, Donnar is now in a state of disarray. If there is another civil war, then..."

"Odin, you are a smart man. Do you think the current rule of the committee is better or the previous rule of the nobles is better?"

Roland looked up at the sky and said calmly.

"I don't deny that among the nobles of Donnar, there are indeed some good nobles who have preserved the tradition of chivalry, but most of the nobles are just a bunch of rubbish."

"When I came to the resistance, the resistance was in ruins and filled with countless refugees. Whether it was your border faction or the local faction's rule, it was all garbage. They only knew how to exploit people endlessly."

“People can’t even afford to eat.”

Listening to Roland's words, Odin lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

"The situation was quite difficult at that time. Now, they will still govern the area well."

"Hard to say."

Roland said calmly.

"If they really want to do this for the good of the people they rule, then they should hand over their land and power. Officials who can be restricted and bound are much better than nobles. At least, they don't have the authority to slaughter the people they rule at will."

"Commoners will not be slaughtered at will because of the nobles' games, they will not be captured as slaves while staying at home, they will not be punished to the point of their families being torn apart for chopping a piece of wood, they will not be shot to death for mistakenly entering a pasture, and they will not be beheaded for stepping on the shadow of a noble."

"I believe in the ability of the nobles, but I don't believe in their character. Most of them have low morals. They are not bound by laws and rule as they please, but no one can control them."

"Even if there are one or two good nobles occasionally, so what? As for your family, can you guarantee that all your family members are like you? If your family members are all like you, then why would they leave the rebels and abandon you to go south to the safer United Army?"

"I trust loyal officials more than unrestrained nobles. At least I can still manage them."

"Good nobles like you will hand over your land and power, but the remaining insects don't care about the people in their hearts. They only think about profit and power."

"Even if he is occasionally nice to civilians, it's mostly for his own selfish desires."

Listening to Roland's words, Odin also lowered his head silently.

She really couldn't refute Roland's words, because what Roland said was true.

Before Roland came to Donnar, Donnar was ruled by traditional aristocrats. As Odin was the heir to the royal family, someone would naturally tell him about the true face of the aristocrats in private.

What Roland said was actually quite restrained. Odin had heard of even more brutal things.

In fact, Odin also did something similar to a beast. Once when he was hunting in a hunting ground, Odin casually shot and killed an ordinary hunter who broke into the hunting ground.

Even though it was later discovered that the hunter just wanted to kill a rabbit for his pregnant wife, and that the pregnant wife calmly chose to commit suicide after learning that the hunter was shot dead by Odin.

At the time, Odin didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

Looking back now, Odin also felt that he might have been a bit too brutal at the time.
