Chapter 473: Bad News From the Monya Empire
His tone was low and his expression was calm, which was in stark contrast to Dillon Cook's impassioned.
But his words were even more lethal, revealing his disappointment with this government, his dislike of the big capitalists, and... his guilt towards Captain Tang.
Of course, testimony alone is not enough, it is obviously not convincing, the figure of old Corey disappeared in a flash, replaced by a piece of video material.
But before it could play, the monitor went blue screen and showed a "no signal" state.
O'Neill stood in front of the north wall, the blue light shone on his twisted and twitching face, like a hysterical purgatory monster.
Hirohiko Iga's body stood up straight like a dry poplar branch, and he said, "Traitor, this despicable traitor!"
"Joseph!" O'Neill looked to the corner of the room.
"Sir, it was the national telecommunications department that cut off the TV signal from Phoenix Empire."
"Is it useful, is this useful..."
Such a big thing, can it be stopped by simply cutting off the TV signal? The people of the Star Alliance are not fools, and the media is not all the mouthpiece of the government. Such international incidents cannot be covered up. What can be done now is to find ways to minimize the negative impact as much as possible.
But the evidence of the other party is all there, and Tang Fang's little bastard has climbed into the high branch of the Phoenix Empire again. Damn it, it's really too hateful.
The "Jakartapur" incident was suppressed by the high-level government because of concerns about face and influence. Now, it has directly become an international dispute. figure.
What time is it now? It is the most difficult time for the government and the least problematic time, because the government needs the support of the people to launch a national war.
But tm is at this juncture. That kid dug a hole in the middle of the road, and the Star Alliance truck full of pride fell down with a bang, and the people who fell were thrown off their feet. Nose and face are swollen.
This is only an external injury, the internal injury is more serious!
Think of the heavy pressure that the Star Alliance government will face next. O'Neill felt his head explode.
What about D? Why such a dramatic change.
O'Neill didn't even change his clothes,
Push open the glass door and rush out of the room.
The single-person boat broke through the water and sailed away on the wind and waves. A voice suppressed with infinite anger and annoyance floated from afar: "Joseph, prepare the car and go to the Congress."
Hamlet looked at the further and further away water splash and the spreading wave, his face became a little strange, with expectation and emotion. Picking up the coffee cup that didn't even have a trace of heat, she lightly touched her lips, and said, "A big accident is about to happen..."
Hirohiko Iga and Swinburne knew the meaning of his words very well, but they didn't know what to say to break the dull and rigid atmosphere at the scene.
No wonder Adam Oliver left the scene so many people left without hesitation, without any scruples about the impact of doing so. Such a big national scandal involves two major areas of politics and economy. Maybe he will become the first in the history of the Star Alliance. A president who was ousted by the people.
Swinburne hesitated for a moment, then said: "Those mines..."
Hirohiko Iga's face like a platter of pickles twitched a few times, but he didn't speak. What is it called? Both people and wealth are lost! A proper loss of people and wealth! The minerals hoarded for the sniper "Morning Star Casting" are now all the property of the Phoenix Empire. Given the current environment, who would dare to ask for it? Who dares to stand out?
"I gotta go."
as a Japanese descendant. His performance was a little rude, and he left the glass room without saying goodbye.
Swinburne didn't take the matter to heart, as he made the same choice seconds later.
The Star Alliance is going to change, the huge amount of minerals is in vain, and Captain Tang is not only unscathed, but even flirts with the Phoenix Empire... All these make the already turbulent situation in Tianchao even more turbulent.
The people in the glass house left the tea to cool down, and only Hamlet was left half lying and half lying in the corner, as if he was fast asleep.
The sky is full of stars. Insects were singing on the ground, and water splashed occasionally on the lake. It's the saltwater crocodile tearing at its prey.
"Tang Fang... Interesting, Hillenbel's situation is getting more and more interesting."
Regardless of the Covenant. Whether it's the Tiannest star area or the Hillenbel region, Hamlet is just a passer-by, a spectator, he is not for money or power, he just wants to watch a big show.
…………
Today's "Babylon" is like water that is about to boil. Steam gushes out from the pot lid, soaking people's skin and scalding it painfully.
"Babylon" District Chief Pierre Passy rushed back to "Yagoda" after he came out of the Starlight Building, because the "Alcassie" naval fleet had already broken through the airspace of the Phoenix Empire and was approaching the "Sky Garden". Come.
The "Sky Garden" and "Arcassie" are separated by the "Toratiel" under the jurisdiction of the Silver Eagles. If the Phoenix Imperial Navy wants to invade the territory of the Star Alliance, it must pass the Silver Eagles' defense zone.
In the past, if the "Arkesi" navy dared to do this, it would definitely provoke the "Toratier" naval fleet. However, at this moment, the Silver Eagle regiment's garrison fleet is like a blind and lame disabled person, until the Phoenix Empire fleet They were about to leave the "Toratier" orbit, and just slowly sent a small fleet to hang behind their buttocks for a while, gave a few symbolic reprimands, and left behind three or five scenes before going back.
The Star Alliance has had a big oolong this time, playing three times and two games to play shit, and now Phoenix is holding the witness and evidence in his hand, standing on the moral high ground, who dares to participate blindly? The Silver Eagle Group has a close relationship with the Star Alliance, but it has not reached the level of an alliance. It makes no sense to serve as a shield for the Star Alliance when the Phoenix Empire is in full swing.
They don't mind helping the Star Alliance, but they will never act now, otherwise, they will burn themselves and ask for trouble.
On the other hand, after Peter Passy returned to the "Yagoda" space station, he planned to seek advice from "Heisenberg" on how to deal with the aftermath, but he didn't know that Mr. President was having a meeting with cabinet members to discuss countermeasures. There was no time to talk nonsense with him, and he was sent away with the sentence "act with caution".
At this moment, the navy sent a message, informing him of the fact that the "Arkesi" navy had come under threat, which immediately made Peter, who was already restless and at a loss what to do, furious, and a smile appeared on his lips. circle blisters.
Bad luck is a very annoying thing, especially when the house leaks and it rains all night. The flight was delayed and hit a thunderstorm.
As soon as the order to "treat with caution" was issued to the navy, a video file sent by the "sky garden" poured a layer of hot oil on the blazing heart of the district chief.
Kenan Rupert is dead! Not only was he dead, but all 24 Seafalcon commandos were also killed. The death is unclear.
They were ambushed in front of the "Venice" hotel and their vehicle was blown up. The corpses of the commandos were lying on the ground in all directions, and Kenan Rupert, whose head was blown apart like a balloon, fell down on the white marble steps in front of the hotel with a plop. land.
From the beginning to the end of the ambush, the whole process took only a dozen seconds, and the accident caused no additional casualties. The only dead were Kenan Rupert and 24 Sea Falcon commandos.
No one knew who the murderer was, and no one knew where the shooting came from. The killing came and went quickly, like a gust of wind, leaving only blood and death, and the screams on the street.
If you put it in the past, daring to kill people in the "sky garden" is no less than seeking your own death.
But now, Peter Passy felt his hands and feet were cold. Like falling into a cold pool.
He knew exactly what Kenan Rupert was going to do, but he didn't expect to be murdered before entering the hotel, and he didn't even leave a whole body behind.
Even weirder. Claire, Tang Yun and others in the backyard villa of the hotel stayed in the room obediently and did not go out. They did not know about this at all.
If it was said that this matter had nothing to do with Captain Tang, Beard would not believe it, but there was no evidence to prove that it was related to the people on the "Morning Star", and he couldn't even catch the shadow of the murderer.
The Star Alliance thinks the whole strategy is perfect, but what? Because of one person, just because of one person, a seemingly shallow foundation. A rootless existence like duckweed, a majestic government. To be forced to such a point.
Peter's mouth was full of bitterness, as if he had crushed a yellow lotus. He is the supreme officer of the "Babylon" special zone. The status is not low, and the authority is not low, but in the face of the coming crisis, I feel so powerless and helpless.
…………
O'Neill is right. The government's restrictions on the media did not curb the spread of the scandal. Instead, it added fuel to the fire and aroused public anger, accusing the current government of ignoring the Constitution and depriving the public of their right to know.
Some parties, organizations, and media that had conflicts with the current cabinet also took advantage of the situation to launch demonstrations and rallies, calling for the resignation of this hypocritical and treacherous government.
Even the opposition party exposed the life scandal of Adam Oliver and his main subordinates, which added a lot of color to the ugly face of the President.
This is not over yet, they accused the current government of arbitrariness, ignoring the peace calls of the people, determined to be enemies with Monya and Sulu, and dragged the Star Alliance into the quagmire of war.
With the social system of the Star Alliance, once it enters wartime politics, the power of the president will be greatly enhanced. If such a despicable person, a guy who uses conspiracy to persecute foreign businessmen, gains such power, what will be the end for the people of the Star Alliance?
The people of the Star Alliance are far more patriotic than the imperial countries like Monya and Sulu, but no one wants their relatives, friends and children to become political victims of Adam Oliver's "great achievements"
The storm is not only fermented on the political level, economically, due to the distrust of the Star Alliance government by businessmen from various countries, the transaction volume of the "Babylon" electronic trading platform is shrinking day by day, and the stock market has suffered serious setbacks, causing varying degrees of negative impact on various industries in the Star Alliance. Influence.
In terms of military affairs, through Adam Oliver's lobbying and government propaganda, the navy's fighting will is getting stronger and stronger, but because of the impact of this scandal, the fighting spirit of the army has been severely frustrated, and the soldiers have even dissatisfied with the current government. The psychology of trust and conflict leads to the loss of morale in the army, and the prosperity of the past is no longer there.
The above is only the domestic impact of this scandal, and the international accusations are even worse. The hostile forces headed by the Phoenix Empire and supplemented by Sulu and Monya took the opportunity to put pressure on and reprimand the Star Alliance government.
Because there is solid evidence in hand, this time it is not like the terrorist attack on the "Ankalim" space station. The naval fleet of "Al-Kathy" drove directly to the door of the "Sky Garden", but Beard didn't even give a shit. They dare not let it go, so they can only ask grandpa to sue grandma, and invite Jones George, the ambassador of the Silver Eagle Group, to be a peacemaker, calling on both parties to exercise restraint as much as possible.
The Federation of Charles and the Republic of Dolanx flirted with the Star Alliance back then. You think I'm sexy, but I think you're chic. It's bad, but today, both of them have become dumb. He didn't even dare to breathe.
The political systems of these two countries are similar to those of the Star Alliance. At the moment when serious political scandals broke out in the Star Alliance government. Who dares to put his face on it? Not only did they dare not put their faces on it, but they also had to put on a look of indignation and slap a few handfuls of salt on Adam Oliver's wound.
It may be inappropriate to do so, but it must be shown, because they have always advertised themselves as moral models and criticized the ugly side of other countries, and this time is no exception, otherwise. Wouldn't it just happen that Sulu and Mengya took advantage of it and ridiculed them for their hypocrisy and sanctimonious appearance, but in fact they uphold double standards, which is disgusting.
The Sauron Empire, the United Kingdom of Turanx, and the Republic of Date are not so fuel-efficient lamps. From the perspective of their own interests, they may at least stand on the sidelines, and at worst, fan the flames, stirring up the not-so-clear water in the Heavenly Nest star area. more muddy.
Of course, Monya and Sulu are the happiest. They know what Adam Oliver is doing recently and what the attitude of the Star Alliance Council is.
The war snowball in the Gampna theater is getting bigger and bigger. If the Star Alliance stabs them in the back again and falls into a situation where the enemy faces both sides, it is conceivable that the two countries will face multiple pressures.
Right now, the Star Alliance government shot itself in the foot and started a war? Adam? Oliver keep the presidency below the ass first.
A small businessman, an insignificant existence in front of the state machine, forcibly used his seemingly weak arms to stir up the general situation of the entire Tianchao star region, making the president sleepless at night. I couldn't eat, and my hair turned white.
The name of "Tang Fang" spread like wildfire. Print media, electronic media, internet media... people of different status and origins are all talking about this "legendary" character at the banquet of the nobles and at the dinner table of the common people.
Despite disclosure from events. Since the influence continued to ferment, he has not appeared in the media even once, but it does not prevent him from becoming the center of the topic, being talked about by people, and remembered in the heart.
In "Jakartapur" exposed the ugly face of Clement and Junichi Fukui, and was awarded the "Brave" medal by the government;
Held an auction in the Starlight Building in the "Sky Garden" and harvested a huge asset of 800 billion;
Successfully smashed the conspiracy of the "Rover Technology Consortium" in "Archesy" and established friendship with the Phoenix Empire;
What major events did Captain Tang do along the way, were gradually compiled into various short stories and circulated on the Star Alliance network.
Of course, being famous is not a good thing for some people, especially Tang Fang, because he also has a big enemy --- His Majesty Kirklavf I, Emperor of the Mongya Empire.
Because of the continuous fermentation of the "kidnapping incident", some things finally could not be concealed. The name "Tang Fang" was passed to the "Celtic" in the hinterland of Monya without any accident, and entered the majestic "Klimt" palace. In the ears of His Majesty the Emperor.
…………
Three days later, the office of the governor of "Al-Kaisi".
Tang Fang was sitting on the sofa, holding a toothpick between his thumb and forefinger, looking at Marlo Smith, who had an ugly face opposite him, picking his teeth carelessly.
He felt that he could not be blamed for this, because the Earl was so annoying that he was invited here by Abano just after lunch.
Is there anything we can't wait to talk about? People have three urgencies, no, picking teeth is very urgent... The feeling of shredded meat stuffed between the teeth is really not very pleasant.
"Looks like lunch to your liking."
"It's alright...the borscht soup would be perfect if it was cooked a little deeper, and there are fried pork chops, the bread crumbs are a little uneven, so it's easy to burn, which affects the taste. I suggest you change a batch of cooks, they...compared to Zhou Ailai is really a little bit out of control."
Marlow held back his anger, raised his eyebrows a few times, and said, "You've had a good time these few days, you know what's going on outside because of you?"
Tang Fang nodded, and said with a smile: "I know, I am also a hot celebrity in the Tianchao star area now, I am happy...Of course I am more and more nourished."
It may be because the noon sun is very poisonous, the floor-to-ceiling windows opposite are tightly covered by curtains, only a ray of sunlight sprinkles along the gap, and a line of golden yellow is drawn on the desk, which is particularly eye-catching.
There is a faint fragrance in the air, the floor-to-ceiling fish tank in the corner of the room is full of bubbles, and several colorful tropical fish swim in and out of the green algae, which is very pleasant.
The whole scene is peaceful, peaceful, and lazy...
However, in stark contrast to the atmosphere at the scene, Tang Fang was so careless, taking the governor's office as his living room, picking a toothpick, and his legs crossed underneath, treating etiquette as nothing.
Marlowe Smith seems to be a big woman whose aunt is on duty and who was interrupted during her lunch break. Her complexion is as green as a pig's liver, but she is not prone to seizures. She can only hold back, hold back, and then push a pda in front of him, saying : "Look at this."
"what?"
Tang Fang took the pda and looked at it. His originally indifferent gaze suddenly became as bright as stars, and his pupils shrank and became smaller.
"What do you mean by the imperial side?"
The Earl was very satisfied with his performance, because he threw the toothpick into the wastebasket, and Erlang put his legs down as well, feeling quite a sense of accomplishment.
"His Majesty the Holy Emperor asked me to test you."
He is very honest, because there is no need to lie when talking to Captain Tang, that would only be self-defeating and not good for anyone.
Tang Fang moved back a bit, lying on his back on the sofa, and said with a smile, "How does the Earl want me to behave?" (To be continued)
