Chapter 1273 New Star Project (Part 2)
Such questioning made the radicals speechless, because any normal-thinking person, as long as he is not blind, can see the deep resentment permeating the society. How many people want this country to come to an end, how many people want the Alexander family to be destroyed If we continue to use force to suppress the weeds and roots, one day that invisible explosive barrel will explode and blow up everyone on it.
Who dares to say that the reform committee's statement is wrong? Who dares to say that this approach is completely undesirable, unless he is willing to bear the crime of beheading with the intention of subverting the empire.
Even if the members of the reform committee have selfish intentions, it is undeniable that the above statement is to safeguard the interests of the Alexander family, and it sounds dignified and righteous.
Many times, this is the means that politicians use to attack each other, even if they know how ugly, disgusting, and dirty things are hidden under the clear water, but in the sun, no one dares to hide the things below. Turn it upside down, so the real evil and hypocritical justice turn them into two-faced people. When the evil side is related to their own interests, and the apparent justice must be maintained, they will inevitably be hit hard.
Sfinkel Alexander wondered, who taught the reform committee to run on his people in this way, how could those stupid, shallow, shameless pariahs be so smart.
Just as the two sides were playing fierce games and continuing to push up the level of social turmoil, a nasty incident suddenly broke out.
The people who went to Prince Sfinkel’s territory to arrest Lord Delong’s Reform Commission and the Imperial Sword Guards for money laundering investigations were rejected by the Prince’s family. Soon after returning to the ship, a terrorist attack occurred, including the special commissioners and the Imperial Sword Guards. Including the commander, everyone was killed, and no one survived.
Terrorist attack... that's what the government of Prince Sfinkel's territory called casualties. But... will people believe it?
Of course people don't believe it! Virginia? Alexander himself did not believe it!
His Majesty the Holy Emperor made a more radical speech, at the very beginning he characterized the matter as a declaration of war by the ambitious group --- not only a declaration of war against him, but also a declaration of war against the cause of reform, and a declaration of war against all citizens of the Phoenix Empire.
Yes, he used the word "citizen" instead of "his people".
Then, he changed the subject and said in front of the media cameras, "Although Prince Sfinkel is my brother, compared with the future of the country, the latter is more important." Such words.
Then he threw out another statement --- what the Emperor Sword Guards did these days proved the loyalty and bravery of Morris slave. The army and the government should liberate the shackles, give them more space to serve the country, and a fairer promotion channel, so that Morrison can perfectly integrate into the big social family.
Marlo Smith was the first to stand up again, stating that he would give Morris slave more convenience, more advanced weapons, and greater trust.
After saying these words in front of the camera, he immediately set up an escort fleet composed of Morris slaves in the Durham star system as his cronies.
This is not just a statement, but a role model. The role played by Marlo Smith is similar to that of a bureaucrat's secretary, accurately grasping the true intention of the person in charge's cryptic speech, and then conveying it.
Some local officials of the conservative faction followed suit one after another, giving Morris slave more room to play.
You must know that Morris slave can have today thanks to the enlightened policy of His Majesty the Holy Emperor. No matter which lord belongs to the armed forces, Virginia Alexander is recognized by Morris slave as a great benefactor, a great savior, and a great sun.
On the other hand, conservatives can use this as an opportunity to expand their armaments and further develop their naval power.
Can Radicals? Of course, they can also use this as an opportunity to expand their armaments, but can they safely delegate the operation of the fleet to Morrison? Once the balance on the surface of the Phoenix Empire is broken, and the military forces controlled by radicals and conservatives face each other, which side will these fleets controlled by Morris slaves stand?
Even a fool knows the answer to this question!
In civil society, ordinary people pay more attention to the word "citizen". This is not a new vocabulary, but in the social environment of the Phoenix Empire, it is definitely a new atmosphere. It is not shouted from the mouths of the aggrieved people, nor is it an advanced thing quoted by the imperial literati when they sing the double reed, but a public speech from His Majesty the Holy Emperor, which is completely different from the past.
Yes, there is only one word difference between "citizen" and "people". But in politics, two words that are synonyms of each other can create different situations or trends, let alone such a sensitive word.
Few people would think that the word "citizen" was a slip of the tongue by His Majesty the Holy Emperor. It is impossible for that man to make a mistake on this kind of issue... absolutely impossible!
This event is more inspiring than Virginia Alexander's reform speech, because the so-called "reform" is likely to be a means of attacking dissidents and concentrating power. And "citizen", a word with value orientation and political meaning, itself represents a kind of power.
This is the power of words! It is also the responsibility of the text!
From another perspective, people like His Majesty the Holy Emperor naturally know more about the charm and energy of words.
Virginia Alexander did not make a more positive response to the discussion and discussion of civil society, but Hegel Alexander has strengthened the supervision and control of public opinion within the sphere of influence. Many scholars and writers who have made enlightened speeches , The professor was arrested and taken into the classroom, which naturally aroused even greater waves among the people.
According to those radicals, these enlightened people have a heart of disobedience, have secret ties with the Star Alliance, the Silver Eagle Group, and the Charles Federation. He went astray and became a villain who tried to subvert the country and harm his compatriots.
At this juncture, Virginia? Alexander did not stand up to say anything, the person who stood up to express his inner thoughts was Marlo Smith.
Earl Marlowe finally stepped onto the stage, taunting the eldest son of the emperor, Hegel, in a shocking gesture, and angering the radicals.
"Since His Royal Highness the eldest son said that what the Star Alliance and the Charles Federation preached was hypocritical, untrue, and did not conform to the national conditions of the Phoenix Empire, why did he have so little confidence in what he said was true, correct, and in line with the national conditions of the Phoenix Empire? How about , let me ask His Majesty the Holy Emperor to release the media control and connect the empire network to the Star Alliance, the Silver Eagles, the Charles Federation, the Dolanx Republic... Oh, and now there is also the United Kingdom of Turanx, these five countries The barrier-free network built allows the citizens to find out the truth by themselves, draw conclusions, and understand how rubbish the other party's propaganda is. This will save a lot of effort and energy, and it will also better unite people's hearts. Empire saves money."
Marlo Smith... an earl, dare to mock the successor appointed by His Majesty the Holy Emperor, this is really unacceptable. Although he didn't bluntly accuse Hegel? Alexander and others of farting, he mocked the radicals for deceiving their ears and stealing their bells. He was staging an interstellar version of "The Emperor's New Clothes".
Once such words were broadcast, they caused even greater waves in civil society. No one could fail to hear Marlo Smith's sarcasm and sarcasm to the eldest son of the emperor. He was the first person who dared to do so.
People focused their attention on the old man behind him, but Virginia Alexander never appeared in the public media to express his opinions. This is obviously a kind of acquiescence, or encouragement. Go a little deeper --- His Majesty the Holy Emperor regards Marlo Smith as an agent.
From various signs, it can be seen that Earl Marlowe's behavior in reforming is more active and radical than that of His Majesty the Holy Emperor himself. This can also be seen from his career——before the Star Alliance and the Phoenix Empire turned hostile, he had been the governor of the Alcasian planet, and he was deeply influenced by enlightened thinking.
This kind of discovery made more and more people feel good about him, unknowingly regarded him as a reform leader.
The radicals never thought that Marlowe Smith would do this kind of behavior, deliberately intensifying the conflict between the two sides, and was at a loss for a while.
When the official circles of the Phoenix Empire were in panic all day long, and the people at the bottom were expressing their opinions on Earl Marlowe's "Pushing the Wall Plan", the territory of the Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire was very peaceful.
After the news of Tang Fang's enmity with the Dragon Whisperer came out, the high-level leaders of Mengya and Sulu were very happy. Whether it was the official media that controlled the propaganda mouth, or the fake private media, there were waves of waves in the country. The wave of hatred continues to smear Tang Fang, smear Morning Star Foundry, and at the same time organize a large number of young people to take to the streets to hold parades and demonstrations, further planting Tang Fang in the hearts of the people as a shameless villain, cruel executioner, traitor, rape, etc. image.
However, this wave receded quickly, and everything returned to the previous situation.
Only those who really understand the movement of the army know that the superficial calm is only to accumulate strength for future turmoil. The navy of the Monya Empire and the Navy of the Sulu Empire have reduced their provocations against the Star Alliance, only because Mackintosh and Abaddon Abdul tightened his strings, waiting patiently for the Dragon Whisperer fleet to appear in the Dilar star system to defeat the Morningstar Forge, and then the naval fleets of the two countries would turn into sharp arrows and drive straight into the hinterland of the Star Alliance, disintegrating the Adam government in one fell swoop. rule.
Mackintosh and Abaddon are like two cheetahs hiding in the shadow of a tree, waiting quietly, dormant quietly, waiting for the prey to expose its weaknesses and holes, and then launch a thunderous blow.
At this point in time, a rumor suddenly spread within the Monya Empire.
A few months ago, Garcia's rebel army Payne Quattro was caught in a trick planned by Rockefeller and carried out by the Celtic Guards, and almost the entire army was wiped out. Penn Quattro himself fell into the hands of the Monya Navy and became a prisoner of Kirkcraft I.
To the surprise of many people, Kerclough I did not immediately execute Penn Quattro, but imprisoned him in the Salas star system not far from the Celtic star system.
It is said that Miki Hinata and Bill Carter, who have a close relationship with Penn Quattro, proposed to Marion Duncan to use the three-headed dog-class pirate capital ship that Tang Fang sent not long ago to launch a surprise attack on the Salas star system and rescue the trapped Penn Quattro behind bars.
The proposal ultimately failed, and Marion refused to send troops to the Salas star system.
This decision made Miki Hyuga and Bill Carter very unhappy, thinking that Marion Duncan became more and more arrogant and arrogant after climbing the high branch of Captain Tang, self-willed, forgetting the camaraderie, deviating from the original intention of Garcia's uprising, and indulging in Power and that little nitty gritty.
Marion Duncan explained that it wasn't that he didn't want to go, but that he couldn't. Kirclough I did not immediately kill the chickens and monkeys, but cut off Penn Quattro's head, just to use him as bait to lure the Garcia rebels to attack the Salas star system, take the opportunity to annihilate them, and solve the big hidden danger in the country in one fell swoop .
Hyuga Miki and Bill Carter insisted that this was an excuse made by Marion. Could it be that the Garcia rebels were still unable to compete with the Monya navy after receiving Tang's weapon support? Now even a three-year-old child knows that Captain Tang, who was born in the Mongya Empire, has flourished in the Star Alliance, and is so powerful that even a force like the Dragon Whisperer dares to provoke him.
Marion Duncan still refused, saying that he would not easily take the weapons and equipment supported by Tang Fang to take risks, and he would not take risks with the lives of his companions. Is it worth it to save the lives of many García rebel fighters in order to save Penn Quattro?
Anyway... Hinata Miki and Bill Carter did not convince Marion Duncan to act. Marion? Duncan did not get the understanding of the two.
I don’t know how this matter was leaked out, and it was widely circulated on the Internet of the Monya Empire.
Compared with the turbulent international situation in the Hillenbel region, the differences of opinion within the Garcia Rebels are just a small episode, an insignificant white wave.
But in another place, in another room, there is enough disagreement here to determine the future of the Hillenbel region.
The dim light cast from the ceiling spreads slowly on the surface of the octagonal table, like the quiet moonlight kissing the lonely cliff, a bit cold and not much vitality can be seen.
Around the octagonal table are eight pillars, and the light flows on the surface of the emblem, making those patterns that are either mighty and majestic, gentle and soft, or cold and arrogant, or domineering, or elegant like the wind, or quiet and natural. .
The emblems around the octagonal table represent none other than the eight factions of the Dragon Whisperers.
Same as last time, the oriental long dragon emblem engraved on the fourth pillar and the seven Yanlong emblem engraved on the fifth pillar are dim and silent.
The evil dragon Goshawk engraved on the eighth column projected a pulsating brilliance to the view, and an old voice sounded: "Now... what else do you have to say? Behemoth... Vasuji."
