Chapter 566 Game of Thrones (Part 2)

The Sulu Empire couldn't do anything about it, so they could only choose to lie dormant and wait for the opportunity quietly. As for Butterfly, as a loser, he gradually became unknown and was ignored and neglected by the people of Monya and the princes. This situation also happened to the ruling class of the Sulu Empire.

Later, as the political situation in Mongolia stabilized, the negative effects brought about by the political chaos at the beginning subsided. With the deliberate curry favor of Kirklaf I and the cooperation of Zaire Abdul, the two countries of Sulu and Mongolia The hostility gradually eased.

The Republic of Date is allied with the Sauron Empire, the Federation of Charles is allied with the Republic of Dolanx, and the Star Alliance and the Silver Eagle are eyeing each other.

Against such a background, only the Mongya Empire, the Sulu Empire, and the United Kingdom of Turanx act independently.

Although Kirklaf I's queen came from the core power family of the Republic of Date, as time went by, the relationship between the two did not go any further.

However, the internal struggles in the United Kingdom of Turanx were escalating day by day. Henrietta and the other princes were engaged in a very slow and ambiguous political game with the young King.

The Sulu Empire has always been close to the Monya Empire, only because Zaire Abdul was optimistic about Butterfield, but this kid is a dou who cannot be supported. Even with the support of the former emperor, he has never fought against his younger brother. Kerclough, so that Sulu and Monya turned against each other.

In recent years, Kerclough I has been in power for a long time. Because of the high-pressure policy and successful brainwashing education formulated back then, the people have become numb and rebellious, and their resistance awareness has become weaker. Living under the whipping of nobles like livestock, contributing their own value to vested interest groups, forming a situation where the country is rich and the people are poor.

Kerclough I spent most of the money on military expenditures, so that Monya's armament expansion speed even surpassed that of its old neighbor, the Sulu Empire.

As a person who relied on his own strength to rise to the top in the intricate political struggle, Kirkcraft I had his own pride and pride. over time. With the strengthening of the country's military power, this pride gradually turned into complacency and arrogance.

He believed that the invasion of the Charles Federation and the Dolanx Republic in the "Gampna" area was the greatest insult in this life, and it was a stain on the monument of his emperor. How could its existence be tolerated.

He's going to fight back, fight back with a big punch, and shut up the human rights of those who keep their mouths shut all day long. The talkative democrats kicked out "Gampona" and took back the land that belonged to Monya.

People are like this, if you listen to "Long Live" a thousand times, you really think you are different from others, and listen to "Wise and Powerful" 10,000 times. Just think of yourself as comparable to Yao and Shun,

Especially an old man like Kerclough I who ruled the country with an iron fist.

As a result, Monya began to use troops in the occupied areas of the Charles Federation and the Dolanx Republic in the "Gampona" area.

Of course, he will not fight alone, he needs an ally.

The United Kingdom of Turanx is too busy to take care of itself and has no intention of foreign affairs;

The "Gampna" theater is located at the junction of the Charles Federation, the Dolanx Republic and the Munya Empire, beyond the reach of the Date Republic and the Sauron Empire. They will not do things that are not beneficial, and it is even more impossible to provoke an all-out war with the Charles Federation and the Republic of Dolanx, even if it is 3vs2. Because the more authoritarian countries like them are. The more afraid of fighting such a large-scale war that uses the power of the whole country, maybe when those oppressed and enslaved people who can only bury their dissatisfaction and anger in their hearts will raise the blood-stained red flag and call out their evil spirits. The people were driven out of the magnificent palaces and buildings to accept justice and justice.

Kerclough I could only put his thoughts on Zaire Abdul, because the two countries were at the beginning of their founding. There was a territorial dispute over the "Gampuna" area, and later the Ten Kingdoms Rebellion broke out in the Sulu Empire. The 10 Dukes and some vassal forces united against the royal family, almost forcing Emperor Sulu into a desperate situation. In desperation, they had no choice but to seek military support from the Monya Empire. As for the price, it was the ownership of the "Gampna" area.

Back then, the ancestors of Zaire Abdul exchanged the "Gampna" area for military support. Today, Kirklaf I has the same idea --- he used the proposal of "joint development" to hook Zaire? Abdul's interest.

The "Gampna" area is similar to the "Sokanada" line of defense at the junction of the Star Alliance, the Phoenix Empire, and the Silver Eagle. The three star systems "Dart" and "Namisir" have been disputed areas between the Charles Federation and the Monya Empire for many years.

When the Mongya Empire was strong, it drove the Charles Confederate army of "Gantriso" out of the area, thus completely occupying "Gampner" until the political struggle broke out between Kerclough and Butterfly, and finally showed it to the Charles Confederation Opportunity, the United Dolanx Republic sent troops together to take back "Gantril" and "Pridat" at the same time.

Because the "Gampuna" area is extremely rich in zero element resources, it is a pity that it has not been developed in a large area due to the war for a long time.

In today's environment where zero element resources are increasingly tense, Kirkcraft I tempted "joint development", and Zaire Abdul himself also hoped to find an ally who could Watching and helping each other, they agreed, and a covenant established a strategic cooperative relationship with the Monya Empire. As for Butterfly, as for the original promise, he has long been ruthlessly abandoned like a pair of worn out smelly socks.

After the two sides announced their alliance, Butterfield was sent to "Celtic" as a gift from the Sulu Empire.

The former heir to the throne, stomping his feet, the character who shocked Mengya, was first defeated in the political struggle, and then he was cut off by the Sulu Empire and became a loner, and then he was a puppet and hostage for so many years, and now he is given as an alliance gift His good brother Kirkclough I.

Butterfly is really poor, really sad, and deplorable.

However, just when people were talking about him, and once again the name of "Butterfly" lingered in the reception and dinner, an unexpected situation happened.

The escort fleet of the Sulu Empire was attacked and wiped out at the border of Mongolia and Asia. Butter Ferry also disappeared. I don't know if he died under the gunfire with no bones left, or there was another chance.

Some conspiracy theorists believe that Zaire Abdul directed, wrote, and acted in a play. Anyway, Butter Ferry is a political weapon that threatens Kirkcraft I. It is useless now, but it does not mean it will not be used in the future. useless. How could an old fox like Zaire not be prepared?

Of course, there are also some negative views. They think that in the current honeymoon season of Sulu and Monya, it is impossible for Zaire to risk being suspected by Kirkcraft to do such a thing, which is not good for both parties. Since you have formed an alliance, you must show your sincerity. Otherwise, what is the point of having allies who have their own ghosts? While guarding against the enemy, you must also guard against the stabbing of your allies in the back. It is better not to form an alliance. How could characters like Kerclough and Zaire make such low-level mistakes.

Some people also wondered whether it was Kirkcraft I who sent someone to secretly execute Butterfly, but it was quickly overruled. With Kirkcraft I's brutal and ruthless personality, how could he take into account the public's opinion of him? Brainwashing and fear are the fundamentals of his rule over Monya. Butterfly and him have the same father, but not the same mother. There is no brotherhood at all. As long as he puts a big hat on him, he can "kill relatives with righteousness" and rule with an iron fist. Sacrifice the flag to awe the princes, princes and people of all parties. Instead of making people think that Barter Ferry is still alive like now, the defeated Prince still has a certain strength and has a chance to make a comeback.

Anyway, regardless of the debate in the international community. Guess what, Butterfly has indeed disappeared, and most people think he is not dead, because no one will run to the border of Monya to fight against the escort fleet of the Sulu Empire. If it is something valuable, how much is a small fleet composed of dozens of warships worth? The truly valuable goods are naturally Butterfly there.

Until 2 years ago. The Star Alliance government declassified a confidential document to the outside world, confirming that Butter Ferry is not dead. Instead, he was hiding in a hidden area in the Tianchao star area, and beside him was an officer who belonged to the escort fleet. This can't help but make people wonder whether Zaire ordered the incident back then, or whether the commander of the escort fleet was bribed by the troubled prince and chose to betray the Sulu Empire and seek refuge with the new owner, or other secrets?

No matter how people guessed or debated, the whole matter was full of mystery and confusion, which made people unpredictable.

After browsing the relevant information, Tang Fang pondered for a moment, and said, "This question is a bit difficult. You also know that I am an outsider in the eyes of the politicians of the Star Alliance. The foundation of 'Morning Star Forging' is still shallow. It is impossible to determine the whereabouts of Butterfly, let alone me?"

Kyrenia did not show any excitement because of his long silence. After listening to the above words and thinking for a while, she suddenly raised her head and looked into his eyes, and said: "I have been waiting for 16 years, is it still a few days away? year?"

Tang Fang frowned: "What do you mean?"

She said, "Remember what you said on SNS TV?"

"Of course I remember, but what does it have to do with you?"

Kyrenia sighed: "You really don't know?"

"Don't know what?" Tang Fang was a little confused, not sure what she was talking about.

Kelenia patiently explained: "The Sulu Empire has a close relationship with the Monya Empire. Harrington Harris, as an important minister of the empire and leader of the frontier army, has close ties with the national intelligence department. As his secretary, I know the confidential information There are many of them, including the impact of your remarks in the SNS TV interview and the subsequent reaction of the Star Alliance in the Mongya Empire."

"With the military strength of the Charles Federation and the Dolanx Republic, on the one hand, we must beware of the Sauron Empire and the Republic of Date making trouble behind the scenes and making small moves; Zhou Xuan, it is very difficult to take a step forward and overthrow the tyranny of Kirklaf I."

"However, the Star Alliance is a big change. After the 'Somare' auction house incident, the relationship between the Star Alliance, Sulu, and Monya fell to a freezing point, and there is a great possibility of war. Until you are on SNS TV That speech completely ignited the anger of the people towards the authoritarian countries such as Monya and Sulu for many years. The government followed suit and started a vigorous war mobilization. Wage war with Sulu."

"Because there is the Silver Eagle Group to contain the Phoenix Empire, and the United Kingdom of Turanx has been accustomed to adhering to neutrality in international disputes in recent years. It is conceivable that the Star Alliance can launch a human rights defense war without any scruples and gather the strength of the three countries. Know the pressure faced by the Sulu Empire and the Mongya Empire."

"Don't forget that in addition to these external forces, the internal environment of the two empires is also not peaceful. The high-handed rule of Kirkcraft I caused complaints among the people, and a few princes with conscience dared not speak out. In addition, the Garcia rebels, With a rebel army like the Freedom Fighters, it is obvious that this is a great opportunity to overthrow the tyranny of Kirkcraft I."

"How did this situation come about? It's all because of you, without you. There would be no today, no hope for the future of the people of Monya and Sulu... You know those who suffered in the Monya Empire and were oppressed by Stewart's tyranny What do people who can't lift their heads or straighten their backs call you?"

"The Messiah of the East!"

"You know the 12 leaders of the Garcia Rebel Army, and you know that they are having a hard time recently. But you must not know that the old man who was originally regarded as a threat by the Charles Federation, and a traitor by Miki Hinata and Krissugard Marion has returned to the core of power, and has leapt to become the supreme leader of the Garcia Resistance Army, and formed a revolutionary united front with the 'Celtic' underground party 'Freedom Fighters' and 'Syncentric Society'."

Kyrenia looked into his face with piercing eyes.

This was the first time after Harrington's death that she showed such an emotion that symbolized the splendor and beauty of life.

"All of this is because of you."

"Just 2 days ago, the Garcia Rebel Army announced a message to the outside world. Or Marion's last words. If he dies in the future struggle, you will lead the Garcia Rebel Army to overthrow Stewart as the new spiritual leader The tyranny of the family. Let the people of Monya be liberated and gain the dignity of being a 'human'."

Tang Fang was dumbfounded, and Zhou Ai and Claire were the same. They never expected that things would develop to such a point. If Kelenia didn't tell them, they would have no way of knowing the domestic environment of Mengya.

Her words are very long. There is also a lot of information revealed. After a while, Tang Fang still felt dizzy. When he was doing the talk show on SNS TV, he never thought that he would become a friend in the eyes of the Star Alliance people. Good guy, hero and revolutionary.

It wasn't until later that he felt the respect and love of the people of the Star Alliance that he understood the importance of understanding and empathy, because what he said on SNS TV was what the people of Monya wanted to say for a long time but dared not say. The words are an accusation against the injustice and evil in the world as a person but unable to be an upright person.

What the people of the Star Alliance see is a real, flesh-and-blood person, just like themselves, not the old foxes in the parliament, and the official and clichés spoken by the politicians in the Reinhardt Palace that make people feel disgusted from the bottom of their hearts.

He didn't even expect that the speech on SNS TV station would bring such a change to the domestic situation in Monya.

Seeing the astonishment on the faces of the three, Kyrenia said, "You are too ignorant of the power of role models..."

Claire asked: "Why do we not know about such a situation? It stands to reason that the Star Alliance should make a big report."

"Because it's not yet time." It was Tang Fang who spoke.

The series of incidents in which the Star Alliance government used the Evil Night Legion to beat him and dispatched the 44th Fleet to occupy "Dilal" now seems not only to force him to surrender, but also has another purpose in it, "Morning Star Casting" or something question.

Obviously, people like Terry Ferdinand want "Morning Star Foundry" to be named "Xing" instead of "Cha", because the backer of the Garcia Rebel Army is the Charles Federation, and "Morning Star Foundry" is a company registered in the Star Alliance. He must Make a choice between the two, and the threat of force is the simplest and most effective way.

Kelenia added: "During this period of time, Monya and Sulu have raised the control of internal public opinion to an unprecedented level. In many places, even the Internet services for the public have been cancelled. Any foreign organization or individual It is closely monitored and controlled, and the border is even more turbulent. The censorship of the identity and belongings of the transit personnel has been raised to the highest level. The information exchange between domestic and foreign countries is close to zero. Even if the Star Alliance wants to report this matter, it may not be enough. Material."

Tang Fang asked curiously: "Thank you for telling us this, but how does this relate to our initial conversation?"

Kelenia said: "Butter Ferry is my enemy, and Kirkcraft is even more so. I failed back then. Now I don't want to fail again, and you may be my only chance."

"You're thinking……"

"Yes, I can wait... until you are strong enough, until you pull that old bastard Kirkcraft off his emperor's throne. Let the flames and explosions fill the 'Klimt' palace, let the 'Celtic' 'The holy sword is broken in the middle, and I will be very relieved in that way."

"When you become the most charismatic person in the entire 'Skynest Star Region' and the hero of the people of Monya, Butterfly will no longer be mysterious. No longer ethereal."

Kyrenia said solemnly: "I am very confident about this."

She held him high, as high as the stars in the sky. She disparages Kirkcraft I, calling him a "bastard" because he was a bastard. Born by the previous emperor of the Mongya Empire and an intersex person.

He knew that Kyrenia was flattering him, but he didn't have the same sense of disobedience as Bai Hao.

Women, especially beautiful women, are generally not repelled and wary, and have natural advantages in communication.

However, this does not mean that he does not know what the woman in front of him is thinking.

"You are very shrewd..." Tang Fang looked at her thin and blurred face and thin body in the darkness, as if a gust of wind could take her away like a dandelion. Flooded to the black land where the gunpowder smoke has not dispersed and is full of scars in the distance.

Claire was curious about what he meant by this sentence. "shrewd"? Why not "smart"?

Tang Fang didn't explain it, he believed that Kyrenia could understand it, or he knew it well.

Those are actually not two conditions, but three conditions. The third condition is to take her to "Celtic" to seek revenge on Kirkcraft I. Lend my own hand to help her avenge her blood.

Kylenia thought for a while quietly. Said, "I'm sorry, I was being selfish. Because I had no choice."

She really had no choice, because he was her only hope.

The annihilation of the Evil Night Legion broke her carefully woven dream, and she fell from the moon called "Susan" to the world and became Kyrenia, who was burdened with blood and deep hatred. Similarly, his arrival is also a bright light, illuminating the blurred future. On the way, let her see the indistinct fireworks on the beach.

From the age of 16, her life and future were dead, replaced by revenge.

For revenge, she is willing to give her everything, body, life, and even soul.

Perhaps it was God's favor, and in the years since she came to "Mubarak", she felt the beauty and precious happiness in this world through "Susan", and she has no regrets in this life.

Now, it is the goddess of fate who rings the morning bell to wake her up from her dream and welcome the life that should belong to her, and Tang Fang is the bright light in the sky, guiding her to complete her mission.

When she was young, she didn't believe in fate, she felt that man would conquer nature, and that as long as she worked hard and made sacrifices, there was nothing impossible or impossible goal in the world. But...until today, she figured it out, this is her fate.

She chose to accept and no longer resist.

The so-called destiny is that you wake up one day, and look back at dusk, everything you have experienced in the past is like the pointer of the wall clock in the corner, turning round and round, the days go by year after year, This is destiny, invisible and intangible, flowing quietly like time, aging slowly like youth.

She looked at Claire.

The world without the moon is so dark, only the flames in the distance cast a gleam on the girl's face, very soft and smooth, like a graceful spring under the moon.

She suddenly felt that the girl was a little familiar, like... just like herself, but... there was something different.

Finally, she raised her head, looked at the man who was 7 or 8 years younger than her, and said faintly, "I'm sorry."

This is her second apology, the voice is softer than the first, but the meaning is as heavy as gold and stone.

Tang Fang looked at the fire falling from the sky from time to time, and asked, "What do you want to do after taking revenge?"

Kyrenia said without the slightest hesitation, "Kyrenia is dead, Susan is alive."

Claire and Zhou Ai listened quietly to the Zen-like conversation between the two. They felt puzzled and at a loss, but they didn't ask any more questions, because at some point there were more fireflies in the sky, dotted with stars, looking very sad.

On Midsummer Night, there will always be an indescribable sense of sadness, even though there will be insects and frogs, which seem to be noisy.

Kyrenia dead, Susan alive? Susan will not live, Susan will also die, but as Susan, she will always "live", returning to this place that has been baptized by war, and resting on the north shore of Lake Aquias.

This is her commitment to Harrington, but also to herself.

Tang Fang felt a dull pain in his chest, even though it had nothing to do with him, it was someone else's fate. He's just a witness, a...leader.

"I promise you!"

A meteor pierced the night sky, setting off a long river of flames, rushing like wind, surging like waves, and finally fell to the other side of the horizon, raising a cloud of dust dyed red by fire.

The earth whimpered like a wounded beast.

Kylenia walked up to Claire, smiled and said, "I really envy you..." Then she turned and walked away. Even though the ground was trembling, her footsteps were still light, like an elemental spirit that would melt away at any time.

"Her smile is really pretty, why don't you smile more?"

Claire looked at Zhou Ai: "What do you mean?"

Zhou Ai stretched out her hands, held her cool hands in her palms, rubbed them gently, and asked, "Is it warmer?"

Claire wanted to say that it was Midsummer Night, how could it be cold. But she swallowed the words back into her stomach, because she found that it was not her own hands that were cold, but Zhou Ai's hands,

At this moment, a bigger hand wrapped the two of them from the outside, as warm as the fire in the fireplace.

"Let's go, there are still some aftermath matters to deal with."
