My Scheming Little Devil

The surrounding areas? Yiyi’s face changed drastically.

The seaside town where the Du Le couple lived was within that surrounding area, wouldn’t that be very dangerous?

Yiyi looked anxious and hurriedly asked the ambassador about the situation in the seaside town.

The ambassador shook his head with difficulty: "Actually, we also received the news not long ago. A lot of intelligence is very chaotic now, and we are not very clear about the entire surrounding battle situation."

"So what are your countermeasures now? Will you provide support?"

The ambassador’s expression grew more complex: "This has to be ordered by the high-level authorities in the country. After all, it’s a matter of the sovereignty of Yalan Country, we foreign troops shouldn’t meddle. Moreover, the most important thing is whether the Yalan government will ask us for help; otherwise, even if we want to deploy troops, it’s impossible."

Yiyi thought the same, as for a sovereign country, no one wants other countries to interfere in their internal affairs, especially the help of powerful countries, which involves too many national interests.

After all, those powerful countries are not saints and won’t spend so much energy and resources to deploy troops to help you quell internal chaos for free; there’s certainly an exchange of interests. And now Yalan Country is oppressed and can’t offer any terms of exchange except for those rare mineral resources that these powerful countries covet.

But if they really exchange these precious resources for help, then what would Yalan Country rely on for development in the future? They would just be stripped of the only valuable things they have.

Therefore, Yalan Country will definitely hold on for as long as they can and won’t ask for help from powerful countries like the Aus Empire or Eagle Country unless it’s a critical moment. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Yiyi’s guess was right. By evening, the Yalan government had still not sent out a call for help.

They only dispatched their own troops to suppress the opposition forces, and various battle reports were also gradually coming in, finally clarifying this sudden internal unrest.

It turns out that after Yalan Country was sanctioned ten years ago, the economy regressed, the government was incompetent, and there was political chaos, leading to increasingly higher opposition voices demanding the government step down. The opposition party of the current cabinet took the opportunity to rise up, leveraging the wave of public dissent to organize a strong opposition camp.

They secretly formed anti-government troops and have been active. Actually, there were several incidents in the past, but they were suppressed.

But as the domestic environment in Yalan Country worsened, the power of the opposition strengthened. In recent years, they have been quietly gathering strength.

Launching a coup, this civil war broke out so suddenly, and the opposition forces seized territories so quickly that the government was caught off guard. They suffered significant losses in today’s battles and lost a lot of territories.

Yiyi couldn’t help but recall going to a scenic mountain area in the north yesterday and being prohibited from entering, told there was a chemical spill. Thinking about it now, she was shocked.

It seems likely that those people were already gathering inside preparing for the uprising. It looks like the chaos in Yalan Country this time will cause a huge stir. If things go bad, the government might really fall.

Yiyi’s feelings for Yalan Country aren’t deep, after all, it’s not her homeland, but the Du Le couple’s kindness to her is considerable. She has to make sure they are safe before she can leave here.

However, no matter how she tries to call, she can’t get through, because communication in the war-stricken area has been blocked, and she is worried sick.

The TV continuously broadcasts news that the opposition forces are making formidable progress, advancing like a hot knife through butter, and constantly seizing new territories. One-third of the regions surrounding Lily City, within a few hundred kilometers, have already fallen.
