The true identity of this "grandma next door" who was suddenly given away for free seems to be ready to be revealed.
When Yang Ming came to the Luofeng Empire, he asked Lu to conduct a detailed investigation, and Lu reported on several major forces that existed in the Luofeng Empire.
The royal reform faction, represented by the second prince Edwang, gathered a large number of ministers.
The royal conservatives are the stubborn feudal forces with the old emperor as the core. The eldest prince can barely be considered this type.
The New Industrial Confederation, which is dominated by external capital, now exists in name only, and its main members are almost gone. - Kolev, relying on his old ladies group, can now exert considerable influence on this organization.
Not to mention the military, the generals have become a group of businessmen.
Until now, Yang Ming has found no specific traces of the leader of the Fifth Administrative Star rebels who had been suppressed many times by the royal family and constantly tried to launch revolutions to subvert the imperial power. He was backed by the New Federation...
Liberal Revolutionary Party.
Is this old professor of economics a member of the Liberal Revolutionary Party?
From the perspective of ideological liberation, it is quite possible.
Yang Ming's eyes were a little sharper.
He deliberately made a mistake:
"Let me guess... living in seclusion in the underground city, a former professor at Yin Landuo University, with extremely high academic prestige... You are a royal reformer, right?"
"I am against the existence of the royal family."
The old professor said calmly, as if he had already secured victory:
"The organization I established more than 20 years ago was later named the liberal revolution."
Windsor was obviously frightened and said in a trembling voice: "You, you are a rebel?"
The old man's expression was full of loneliness, and he smiled apologetically at Windsor.
The old man said: "The friendship between us is real, Windsor, I really like chatting and playing with you."
"Oh, this..."
Miss Windsor was having trouble breathing.
Yang Ming glanced at Lu, who had already activated all-round shielding.
Yang Ming asked warmly: "You founded the Liberal Revolutionary Party?"
"I and nine other teachers from Yin Landuo University," the old professor sighed softly, "we are passionate and want to work hard to change this country, and we are ready to make all sacrifices."
Windsor's pretty face turned a little pale and she couldn't help but move closer to Yang Ming.
Yang Ming patted the back of her hand and told her not to worry.
The old professor sighed:
"We originally wanted to set off a revolutionary wave on Yin Landuo planet, but we ran into obstacles one after another due to insufficient preparation. Then we went to the administrative planet with a relatively small number of people. At first we only had a few dozen people, and then hundreds and thousands of people."
"Is the royal family suppressing you?"
"The royal family didn't care about us," the old professor said with a wry smile. "They just issued some notices warning us that doing so was illegal. Our initial actions were basically online protests, sending leaflets, and posting slogans."
Yang Ming was a little speechless.
Is this fucking called a revolution?
Windsor whispered: "As far as I know, the royal family did not care about the Liberal Revolutionary Party at first. There are actually many similar organizations. The royal family is afraid of bearing the international infamy of brutal rule, so they usually turn a blind eye, sometimes even
It will also give some benefits.”
"After we were active for a few years, things changed," the old professor sighed softly. "We thought it was the arrival of hope, the dawn of dawn, but unexpectedly it was the beginning of a nightmare..."
026 asked: "Is it the New Federation? I read on the news that the New Federation has been engaged in a spy war."
"Yes, they funded us twenty years ago, gave us weapons and equipment, and helped us train combatants, but they took away our command and spread their ideas of freedom within the organization without considering Luo Feng
actual situation."
The old professor sighed repeatedly:
"Things gradually became different.
"They plotted to launch an armed uprising on the fifth administrative star, which is the poorest and most populous.
"We old guys have become overwhelmed. This is not a situation we want to see. Many people will die, and without the fleet to support us, this cannot be successful.
"They promised that a powerful fleet will come to support. As long as we occupy the fifth administrative star, this country will have hope.
"We were silent because we felt they were right and bloodshed was inevitable.
"What's ridiculous is that after the first uprising broke out, those who were in contact with us from the New Federation suddenly left. There was no fleet in the sky as they promised, but only Luofeng military attack boats... thousands of people
We were massacred and we lost most of our friends.
"And the New Federation gave us new assistance immediately - they diplomatically condemned the Luofeng Empire for its tyranny of free people, and since then they have characterized the Luofeng Empire as an empire that rules brutally.
"After that, countless capital and businessmen flowed from Sherman Fallwind's camp to the New Federation and its allies."
The old professor smiled bitterly:
"The fifth administrative planet has become poorer and weaker, and the lives of all people have been affected."
Yang Ming said calmly: "The New Federation is using its small power to make a big difference. With the activities of a few agents and a small amount of funds, it has destroyed the economic growth momentum of the Luofeng Empire and taken away some of the transnational capital."
"good."
The old professor sighed:
"After the failure of the first uprising, we old guys were at a loss, but agents of the New Federation appeared again, and there was a traitor among us.
"Soon there was a second and third time... A few of us chose to leave the Liberal Revolutionary Party that I founded twelve years ago, and it has completely turned into a tool of the New Federation.
"Our ideals were shattered, not by royal suppression, but by the new federal CIA."
There was a long silence in the room.
"With all due respect, even if your ideals are not shattered, they will only end in failure."
Yang Ming said slowly:
"In a sense, you are not a qualified leader.
"Revolution is bound to bleed. It is impossible to rely on sit-in protests and international support to achieve real success, otherwise it will leave all kinds of problems.
"Revolution must be thorough, decisive, uprooting the old order, and a comprehensive revolution brought about by the awakening of national consciousness, in order to reshape the soul of a country. Leaders must have the courage to fight with blood against powerful regimes at home and abroad.
"Due to the continuous development of technological production technology and the widespread use of mechanical soldiers, the cost of revolution is increasing. Now it is useless to launch an armed uprising and kill all the people on the planet."
After Yang Ming finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh softly.
The old professor had some appreciation in his eyes: "It's really surprising that you can understand this at such a young age."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "You suddenly confided this to me now, do you want to contact the second prince through me?"
"Yes...yes," the old professor frowned and looked at Yang Ming.
"Let me think about it."
Yang Ming tapped his fingers on the table and continued:
"For you to take the initiative to go to Edwan, you must want to get some support from Edwan, or to pardon your previous crimes - sorry, I mean the crimes in the eyes of the royal family - right?
"In exchange, you should give out an important piece of information, but this information cannot be the list of the Liberal Revolutionary Party."
There was a subtle change in the old professor's expression, and he was a little afraid to look directly into Yang Ming's eyes.
026 had a bit of anxiety in his big eyes.
She felt Yang Ming's overwhelming momentum at this moment.
"You are too smart," the old professor asked with interest, "Can you guess what the information is?"
Yang Mingran said: "A full-scale rebellion is about to break out on the fifth administrative star. The New Federation has instigated a rebellion against the Luofeng Sixth Fleet outside that administrative star. The third prince will also be involved."
The old professor frowned slightly.
She knew that if she didn't
Opening her mouth, Yang Ming can deduce all the information through the slight changes in her expression.
The old professor whispered:
"I want to talk about two things.
"First of all, I want to meet His Highness Adwan. I can go anywhere, including prison.
"Then, I want to remind you that the New Federation will set off a full-scale rebellion on the fifth administrative planet. Most of my old friends who had the same goals have been bribed by them, or in other words, they were originally members of the New Federation. But I
There are also some close friends who are willing to provide me with information.
"The New Liberal Revolutionary Party is no longer fighting for the freedom and well-being of the people. According to the intelligence I have, today's top leaders just want to divide the country, establish their own regime, and exploit the wealth of the people."
The old man's voice paused for a few seconds and continued:
"In the past few months, I have seen everything the second prince has done.
"The feudal royal family that we have always opposed is desperately trying to save this country; the liberal democracy that we have always insisted on is desperately trying to dismember this country. - Although this is an accident and an exception, it is ironic enough.
“Isn’t it because we want to launch institutional reforms because of our love for this country?
"We don't want to see it sinking under the exploitation of the royal family, and now, our dream has been completely shattered.
"I have always believed that system reform can solve most of the problems in this society. Oh... young man, what are you doing?"
"Wait a minute, I'll make a call."
Yang Ming took the watch and went to the outside room. He quickly ran back and continued to pick up the knife and fork, preparing to have a big meal.
"Adwan will come over secretly in half an hour. You can continue to talk about these topics... I am not interested in these."
"This, this is too hasty," the old professor's expression changed.
Yang Ming smiled and raised the juice:
"I am only good at military affairs, not economics. Edwan will be happy to see you. The prison beds will be reserved for traitors and lackeys, not for patriots like you."
"Um, wait!"
The old professor looked slightly embarrassed:
"I put some sleeping pills in your juice, so that... I can leave in time, you can understand that, right?"
Yang Ming calmly put down the juice.
These old foxes are indeed not as innocent and kind as they say.
…
Unexpectedly, this old economics professor is really amazing.
The full-scale rebellion of the Fifth Administrative Star occurred eight galactic days later. The current leader of the New Liberal Revolution Party will declare the independence of the Fifth Administrative Star. The outer Luofeng Sixth Fleet has been corrupted by the New Federation from top to bottom. They will become the new
The main force of the government.
The Luofeng Royal Family...
The Luofeng Royal Family apparently does not have a full fleet that can be directly mobilized.
On the way back to the star cruiser, Yang Ming and Lu kept discussing how to fight the next battle.
Yang Ming did not want Gudunmaha's Fourth Fleet to lose too many ships, which would be equivalent to a loss of his strength.
"Boss," Lu said softly, "I actually can't tell the difference."
Yang Ming wondered: "What can't you tell?"
Lu gently clicked his tongue: "From the perspective of the people of the Luofeng Empire, is it better to let this rebellion win completely or let the emperor continue to rule?"
Yang Ming smiled and said: "I have said it before, if Luofeng's revolution is based on the anger of the people, it is naturally just. If it is controlled by foreign forces, it is just bloodshed and meaningless."
"Okay," Lu said softly, "I'm not against imperial dictatorship.
"Edwan is a big reformer at heart. Put him on the throne and he will be able to abolish the imperial dictatorship step by step."
Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and smiled:
"Now I want to know even more what the third prince is doing when he goes to the fifth administrative planet. Does he, a prince, want to become the leader of the New Liberal Revolutionary Party? Also, if we further verify this information, we cannot believe what they say.
"
Ritsu: "Boss, I'm going to spy on the captains of the Sixth Fleet."
"Remember to leave more computing power for Bosha," Yang Ming warned uneasily, "that is the real life-threatening crisis."
Soon, Lv brought back a recording.
This is an encrypted call between two captains of the battleships of the Sixth Fleet.
…
"Oh my god, the Third Prince is actually here."
"Is he a fool?"
"He must have been deceived by the agents of the New Federation and asked him to come over to collect military exploits and please the old emperor."
"The third prince has no idea what will happen here next. The New Federation has truly taken complete control of this country. When the third prince makes a televised speech and declares that he recognizes the independence of this planet, then the Luofeng royal family will be finished!"
"That's it. This proves that we made the right choice. This country is already very sick."
"Oh, let's leave after making this money. It will be enough for us to enjoy the rest of our lives."
"Oh, I don't know how many people will die."
…
Yang Ming turned off the recording.
Fine.
The eldest prince is a royal conservative;
The second prince is a reformist in the royal family;
The third prince is a fool of the royal family.
"Let me think about how to achieve the greatest victory with the least sacrifice."
Yang Ming looked at the star cruiser getting closer and closer and kept rubbing his temples:
"It would be perfect if Gudun Mahar took over the Sixth Fleet. This guy has prestige in the military and has a team of confidants.
"We need to keep a closer eye on Gudun Maha from now on, and we can't let him have any problems with his thinking."
Lu reminded: "Boss, the Sixth Fleet is a relatively powerful fleet in the Luofeng Empire. Because they have always been dispatched to suppress rebellions, their equipment is the best, with seven star cruisers, two light battleships, and
The Luofeng Empire’s only thousand-meter-class heavy battleship.——This ship is also a retired warship of the Sherman Empire, and its firepower is very domineering.”
"How much rice?"
"Kilometers, General Wagelu."
Yang Ming's eyes burst out with blazing light: "From now on, it's called the Valkyrie."
