Chapter 626: Opening the Bow without Looking Back (Part 1)
Popular recommendations: , , , , , , ,
The boy in the second year of middle school is for those things that are beyond his reach, he is for himself, and to be more precise, it should be revenge.
Only veterans really consider Tang Fang.
Roy was ashamed, and so was he.
Izsha hugged her thin body and said nothing from the beginning to the end.
The special operations transport ship quickly left the atmosphere of "Adia" and entered space orbit, re-entering the abdominal cavity of Behemoth.
The Flying Dragons and Corruptors evacuated from Kandal Island did not return to the formation immediately, but rushed to the location of the "Aitiya" Northern Border Military Region under Emma's remote control, and joined the Obsidian Fleet Small Ship Fleet and Star Army Carry out the final clean-up work on the stubborn forces that are stubbornly resisting.
At the same time, Tang Fang completed the recovery work of the Phoenix fighter and the scout fighter, and did not return to the Golding military port immediately to have talks with Stumble, Creston and others, but rushed to the "Seraphim" first. Pick up Freya, and take the opportunity to check the damage.
According to the report of the combat assistance system, one of the six "Apostle" drones was damaged in a dispute with the hybrid battleship. Although it was not too serious, the shipboard maintenance robot can carry out repair work, but it will take a certain amount of time. In addition, the stealth system of the warship is more or less slightly damaged. At the same time, the efficiency of energy transmission has been reduced. Modules such as avionics equipment and sensor systems need to be shut down for maintenance. These projects together will take about seven days.
This was damage to the battleship. Freya was quite frightened at the end of the battle. When he returned to the "Seraphim", the little girl threw herself into his arms and kept shaking, muttering "Tang Fang , I'm afraid...I'm afraid...I'm afraid I'll never see you again."
Recalling the battle situation at that time again, he himself felt a little frightened, let alone Freya who was facing the mixed battleship. She is a child at all, and her mental capacity is very weak. Let her drive the "Seraphim" to bully the standard warships of sovereign countries, but it is indeed difficult for her to face mixed warships. Because the former is tantamount to a game of cat and mouse, while the latter is more like a big challenge that puts one's life on the line.
He could only try his best to comfort the little girl. When she was in a better mood, she was transferred to the "Morning Star" and handed over to Kyrenia and the others to take good care of her, then drove the "Seraphim" to a place far away from Goldin's military port, and ordered the combat assistant to start the maintenance process. Carry out a complete overhaul of the battleship.
After everything was settled, they took the Protoss transport plane and entered Golding Naval Port to discuss with Stanbel and Creston.
When he was escorted by a major general staff officer to the command center,
The entire military port was in chaos, with soldiers coming and going like the wind everywhere. Make every effort to carry out the aftermath work.
The war came too suddenly, and it ended in the defeat of Surbagio.
The stubborn forces in the Knall family were not wiped out by Congreve, but were killed by Captain Tang from the Star Alliance, and the Supreme Security Council and the Armed Forces of God were also implicated, making the already complicated situation even more chaotic.
There are still sporadic firefights at the edge of the warp speed interception network, and it is urgent to send troops to clear them. The airspace where the Protoss fighter jets fought with Scott Horner's fleet needed follow-up cleanup work, and the battleship dock side, the fire has not been completely extinguished, and it is facing a huge repair work.
In addition, it is necessary to settle down the morale of the army and deal with Surbajo's cronies. Rescue the wounded and count the casualties of each fleet.
Stanbell and Creston were so busy that they felt more tired than directing a big battle.
It wasn't until Tang Fang arrived that the two of them showed what could barely be called a smile, handed over the less important work to a trustworthy subordinate, and entered the small meeting room in the command hall with him to discuss the most important issue in the aftermath , How to keep the results of this battle under the current environment.
Not long after the old duke died, Sulbacho died with him...or died in this way, who will be in power in the Duchy of Kenar next? How to characterize this battle?
After the 3 people sat down, they didn't exchange too many greetings. Even the tea was not served, choosing to go straight to the point.
Creston didn't know the situation on Kandal Island, so he tentatively asked, "Then...how do these people deal with it?"
He believed that Tang Fang could understand, because of Congreve's death. All the dignitaries of the Knall family came to "Aradelle" to attend the funeral, and at the same time, they also meant to cheer for Surbacho.
Tang Fang looked at him strangely, until the Deputy Commander of the Garrison Navy Fleet was getting a little hairy, and then said: "It has been dealt with."
At the same time as the three of them sat down, the special operations transport ship carrying Izsha, Aros and others was leaving the atmosphere of "Aitia", and she and Aros left. The matter that marked Kandal Island has been dealt with.
He didn't instruct Izisha on how to deal with Amanda and those people. He knew that she would not be relentless, because she was born as a Morris slave, and because she was Izixia.
Again, using violence to control violence may not be the best solution to punish the wicked, but in many cases it is the simplest and most effective way.
The group of biological battleships passed through the warp speed interception network on the border of the United Kingdom of Turanx safely, appeared in the Aladale star system, and killed the new head of the Duke of Knall, Sulbacho.
This kind of thing will definitely attract the attention of all countries and shock the high level of the government. Everyone in the big nobles of the exclusive countries like the Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire is in danger, and then regards him as a powerful threat, and wants to get rid of him quickly.
The example set by Mubarak is not enough. His methods are strong enough, but not ruthless enough.
As Sulbajo said, his attack on the Aladale star system is bound to irritate Hymn Will and the rest of the great nobles of the United Kingdom of Turanx, and may trigger a national war. The Star Alliance already has two Enemy, there is no need and no obligation to fight this matter for him.
He must let those guys holding the golden scepter know that he is not only powerful, but also a ruthless person. Whoever dares to easily provoke "Morning Star Foundry", the fate of the Kenar family will be their future.
People like Surbaccio hang the butcher's knife over the heads of civilians and use violence and fear to maintain their rule. Shouldn't they also be given a taste of this?
He would love to be that kind of person.
Nobles don't need to work hard, exploit hundreds of millions of people through power and force, enjoy the fat and blood of the people.
Just like what he thought when he killed Surbajo, he wanted justice, and he also wanted justice for others.
If there is a contribution, there should be a return, and if there is a request, there should be a price.
He is willing to be the sword of punishment. And that's what it's been doing all along.
This is a bit secondary, a bit taken for granted, and a bit funny.
But in one's life, one must always do something meaningful within one's ability...at least one thinks it is meaningful. Is not it? What's more, doing so can better protect "Morning Star Casting" and the people around you, so why not do it?
"It's over...it's over..."
Creston whispered twice, gradually understanding the deep meaning of his words, and stood up from the conference table at once. With a trembling voice, he said: "You mean..."
To be honest, Tang Fang has already made mental preparations in advance for how Tang Fang will deal with Amanda Krivat and others. However, hearing such news with my own mouth, I still couldn't control my emotions.
Those people in Dengle Palace make up the sky of the entire duchy.
Today, the sky is falling.
In front of him, the Skybreaker gently tore off the barbs on both sides of his fingernails, frowning slightly from time to time, looking a little hurt.
Steinbel sighed, with a complicated expression on his face. There are many emotions and many emotions.
"Have you ever thought about who will control the Duchy of Kenar after Sulbagio's death?"
Compared with Clayton, his questions are more practical, and it can be said that they are realistic.
The corner of Tang Fang's mouth twitched and hissed. It felt like a needle pricking him, but he finally solved the problem that had troubled him for a long time. He looked up into Stabel's eyes and said, "I want to hear your opinion."
After all, he is an outsider and doesn't have a deep understanding of the duchy's situation. It would be better to listen to the opinions of the two old people before making a decision.
Stanbel said: "The old duke has more or less supporters within the Knar family, but these people are either incapable or out of selfishness. If the duchy is handed over to them, it may not be a good thing. In addition, it is not All the clansmen who opposed the reform came to 'Aladale', and those far away in 'Josena' will not just sit idly by. Although Edward's fleet is no longer a concern, they can still borrow troops from other princes, or ask for hymns Will is out on a crusade."
Out of selfishness?
Tang Fang understood after a little thought. A member of a big noble family like the Knall family. The good and the bad will also be mixed, and it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps and mutual hostility.
Some people gain power while others lose power. Those who gain power are rampant, and those who lose power naturally hold grudges and try to get revenge. They even deliberately instigate conflicts between Congreve and the opponents of reform for fear that the world will not be chaotic.
Or how can it be said that it is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework, and many small family matters are the epitome of society's big portrayal.
Of course, Tang Fang was not in the mood to care about the messy relationship among members of the Kenar family. He asked Stumble and Creston something unexpected: "The old duke...doesn't he have an illegitimate child?"
Creston sat back, his mouth open almost enough to fit a pear.
The corner of Steinbel's mouth twitched slightly, and he realized that the kid opposite was a disaster, pure natural pollution-free, no preservatives, no pesticide residues, a pure disaster that couldn't be more pure, just with his mouth... Oh, no, it's obvious With a city in his heart, his honest and straightforward style really makes people laugh and cry.
"Do I have flowers on my face?" He said seriously, "Yes or not?"
Creston looked at him with a complicated expression, and said in a very weird tone: "Yes."
Tang Fang said, "I'll just say it."
Clayston added: "But... it's a girl, she's only 15 years old this year."
"Huh?" This time it was Captain Tang's turn to be stunned, and said for a long time, "He... well, he's in really good health."
Congreve is almost 80, and the illegitimate child is only 15 years old... Of course he is in good health.
Is that the point that Stembell and Creston are going crazy? Is that the point? Is that the point?
Say important words three times!
"I'm curious, how do you know that he has an illegitimate child... No, it's an illegitimate child."
Creston was about to collapse, winked and said, "You...you usually gossip like this?"
"Heh...hehehehehehe." He laughed a few times, and said awkwardly: "Sorry, I was curious for a while."
Stanbel couldn't laugh or cry, shook his head and said: "The old duke has two daughters, the eldest daughter is named Grantis, and she married the Sauron Empire. The younger daughter... cough cough, that is, the illegitimate daughter you mentioned, named Irene Na Passy is currently studying in the Charles Federation."
"Elena? Patsy?" Tang Fang thought she should be following maternal instinct.
Stampel said: "You also know that in recent years, the conflict between the old Duke and the forces in the family has intensified. No matter how much you love her, for the sake of the overall situation, you have to act cautiously, and even send her out of the country cruelly."
Tang Fang laughed and said, "I suddenly remembered the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs."
Stanbel's face was completely black.
Creston patted his forehead. With a heartbroken look, he thought how could a good battle meeting become a gossip meeting? The script shouldn't be like this.
"Mr. Tang, Ms. Elena has nothing to do with the subject of this meeting."
He wanted to call Tang Xiaozi, and felt that it was a little too close. Captain Tang? And out of season. Chairman Tang? The painting style is wrong, call him by his first name? It was a bit impolite, after much deliberation, I finally used a relatively neutral word like "Mr. Tang".
"Who said it doesn't matter, of course it does." He put away his smile and said seriously: "Could it be that Miss Elena can't be the heir to the duchy?"
Creston's chin almost hit the edge of the table, thinking, this kid really is a scourge.
There has been no shortage of female lords throughout history, and even now the United Kingdom of Turanx has several female dukes. But their situation is completely different from Elena's.
First of all, those duchesses are all relatively old, the youngest Duke Edwina is also 48 years old, while Elena is only 15 years old, technically speaking she is not yet an adult. Secondly, they have the support of family power, does Elina have supporters? No... she only has seven bodyguards. In the end, those duchesses in front were born noble, and it was justifiable to inherit the throne of the lord, but Eileen was different. She is an illegitimate daughter, and her name is not justified. Even if her brothers are all dead, the old people of the Kenar family will not agree to her succession to the title.
"It's hard," Stembel said.
"It's more than difficult," Creston said. "It's impossible."
Such a thing more than the opposition reformists would not agree to. Even clansmen who ignored the reform would not agree, including some vassal clans. Praise Will would not approve of such an approach.
Tang Fang said: "The most important thing you should consult is not those people's ideas, but Elena's own wishes."
Steinbell fell silent.
Creston continued: "This matter involves a lot, and it is simply an impossible task. The stubborn forces in the country will not agree."
"Do you need their consent? Externally, this is the internal affairs of the Kenar family. Internally, it is a factional dispute. Whoever controls the army is most likely to win. Who is in the hands of the army now?"
Creston and Stembell looked at each other: "That would cause a political shock, and even a political storm, and even a civil war."
The Edward Fleet was defeated in the "Adia" space war. The Josena Star System also has a garrison naval fleet, which is firmly in the hands of the diehards. Similarly, some small vassal families also secretly reserve small-scale armed fleets , such as the Krivat family where Amanda belongs.
They will definitely not ignore the changes that happened to "Aradelle", and it is even more impossible for them to approve of a humble illegitimate daughter inheriting the duchy.
If Irene is allowed to inherit the title according to his wishes, it will be tantamount to driving them to a dead end, which will inevitably lead to war.
Tang Fang said coldly: "What is happening now, isn't it just a civil war?"
Creston opened his mouth to defend himself, but found his excuses so clumsy and weak.
He and Stanbel thought it was a coup, but the death of Sulbajo, Amanda and others, and the destruction of Edward's fleet all fully demonstrated one thing. a war.
To be honest, when he and Stanbel did what they did, the starting point was very complicated. There was some indignation, some impulsiveness, some gambler's mentality, and some idealism. There is no time and energy to think about how to finish this matter after it is completed, and what beneficial or adverse effects it will cause.
Hearing Captain Tang's question at this moment, he came to his senses.
If the guy across the way broke the sky in the Duchy of Kenal, those two, along with Carter Buonarrotti, were the ones down the escalator.
"When you shoot a bow, there is no arrow back."
When he said this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, exuding a cold edge like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, which was in stark contrast to the previous gossip.
"General reforms often come to a standstill at the last moment, or even collapse. Like the darkness before dawn, it is the coldest and quietest moment. Either die silently, or witness the brilliance of the sun jumping out of the horizon."
"When a spiritual leader like the old Duke dies, what you need to do now, or what you can do, is not reform, but revolution, and kill all those who dare to stand in the way of reform."
"This is not only to save the lives of the 'reformers', but also the lives of the 'reformers'."
"You have no retreat, no choice."
When he said the last sentence, his slightly squinted eyes opened instantly, like the morning light sweeping across the haze, emitting a light that was more brilliant than the chandelier.
The meeting room became very silent, as if the sound of dust could be heard.
Stembell and Creston sat there without saying a word.
Tang Fang was right. After Congreve's death, those who supported reform had no way out. Revolution was their only choice. However, this is the most difficult step to take. It is true that they are the right-hand men of the old duke. It does not mean that they have enough political influence, and it is difficult for many reform forces to be twisted together. If a revolution is forced, it will inevitably cause social turmoil. Even chaos ensues. (To be continued.)
