Chapter 455 The beginning of civil strife (Part 2)
'These old bastards.'
Daphne cursed in her heart, and then felt a little rude, so she changed her words to elegant words.
'These rubbish politicians who only care about their own interests.'
When Daphne first came into contact with the elite and powerful faction of the Sherman family under the leadership of Director Ino, she felt a sense of fear in her heart.
Each of these people sitting on this round table is a real dignitary of the empire, a leader among several generations of their Sherman family, and holds the future of hundreds of billions of people in the empire.
Daphne has been in contact with them in the past few years, but she has discovered that these people sitting here are indeed elites compared to the degenerate tribesmen who only pursue their desires every day, but the degree of elites is limited.
Although the four 'grandfathers' old men who control the regular army of the empire are all from the military, they are all good at combat command, have rich experience in battle, and are familiar with the operation of the military system, but they are not the best generals of their generation.
For example, General Thomas, who is currently in the spotlight in the military, and a little-known prince lieutenant general from the Sherman family. General Thomas will retire directly after his body ages, while the lieutenant general from the Sherman family only needs to
If you make some relatively good achievements, you may be able to enter the round table and become the future leader of the military.
At this moment, that is, right now, Daphne had some negative and bad thoughts in her heart.
'Replace them.'
'They have no right to give me orders.'
"Daphne? Are you listening?"
"I'm listening," Daphne lowered her head and responded, "You just said, let me comfort Hanton as much as possible."
"You should show your value, Daphne," the old man said coldly, "You have lived with the white ghost for so many years. Instead of making him a loyal member of our Sherman family, you have made him look down on you.
This kind of power has developed below, what is your value? Daphne."
Daphne's pretty face turned pale and she whispered: "I can't justify my incompetence."
"His technical team, how is your investigation going?"
"The progress is not going very smoothly. His technical team has kept it secret from me. I only know that he has an assistant who keeps in touch with him at all times. This assistant is a guy with outstanding abilities."
"that's it?"
"Yes, that's all."
There was a hint of impatience in the old man's eyes.
Daphne could only continue to lower her head.
I heard one person say: "Put your time where it should be, singing and dancing to please the people. Why not find a way to prove your value to the family."
Value, value again.
This is simply disgusting - Daphne thought.
She decided to do something, at the very least, so that in the eyes of these old bastards who could eat people without spitting out their bones, she couldn't just be a weak and weak woman.
"Actually, I haven't gained anything."
Daphne slowly raised her head and stared at the old parents in front of the virtual conference room. Her voice gradually changed from soft to strong.
"Based on my understanding of Hanton, this empire-wide demonstration was definitely promoted by him.
"I can feel that he has an extra power that does not belong to the empire or its opponents. This power is not very powerful. It is very likely that after he became famous, a group of like-minded young people gathered around him.
Around me, for example, the noble Revel.
"I suspect that he has a small party, and this party is the driving force behind the nationwide demonstrations.
"You can even think that the escalating riot in front of you was planned by him."
"This is impossible," one person said, "Daphne, I know you may have some blind worship of the white ghost, but the white ghost is just a warrior. He has been under our noses. The only thing that is not certain is that he has mastered it.
How many Fayans gave him technology."
Daphne asked: "Excuse me, where is Whisper now? You may have been at the pinnacle of the empire for so long that you feel that everyone needs to revolve around our Sherman family, but we are not the big black hole in the center of the galaxy.
It is true that Hanton wants to seek the empire, but he is still an idealist and he does not like the current empire. This is my most intuitive feeling after living with him."
"Daphne, you seem to be dissatisfied with us too?"
"Yes," Daphne raised her head slightly, "My loyalty to the family and my respect for my elders do not need to be decorated with any gorgeous words, but when you face the white ghost, you always use a condescending and disdainful attitude.
Yigu's attitude makes me feel... you don't respect this opponent."
"Opponent? Humph."
The old man in the middle said coldly: "He is just a soldier of the empire."
"Pride and prejudice are often the beginning of failure."
"Daphne! It's not your place to educate others here!"
"Okay Daphne," Director Ino frowned and said, "Control your emotions. What do you look like now?"
Daphne lowered her head and sighed.
She wanted to say something else, but a pop-up window appeared in front of her. She was kicked out of the group chat, and the projected light and shadow quickly faded.
Daphne was stunned for a moment.
She looked at the scenery of the room in front of her and was slightly lost in thought. Before she could recover, she had already received an order from Director Ino.
[Persuade Hanton to come to Emperor Star.]
"well."
Daphne stood up and walked to the study room where Yang Ming was, quickly adjusting her expression to make herself look relaxed and happy.
However, what she didn't know was that the change in her expression just now had been reflected by Xiao Lu to Yang Ming.
As soon as Daphne stepped into the study, Yang Ming's laughter came over:
"Let me guess, Daphne.
"You should have received an order from Director Ino. He asked you to take me to the Emperor Star, right?"
Daphne was startled for a moment, then looked up at Boss Yang who was sitting behind the desk without raising his head.
He still looked the same as when they first met. The ancient god's power kept him from aging at all, but she wanted to maintain her appearance, but she had to go through some pain from cosmetic surgery.
Yang Ming held the paper book and said with a smile:
"I can also guess that your experience in this meeting was not pleasant. You suddenly discovered that the family elders, who were originally somewhat mysterious, were actually stubborn old men and despicable rulers. The best among them
Those who are actually scientific research talents like Director Ino."
Daphne wondered: "You have a way to monitor my communication system."
"There is a way, but out of respect for you, I didn't do it."
Yang Ming threw the book away and said with a smile:
"Is there any information you want to share with me?"
"There is no meaningful information. They still don't regard you as an opponent, they just regard you as a reformed warrior who is not under their control."
Daphne crossed her arms and leaned against the wardrobe, her slender figure exuding amazing feminine charm.
"I feel like a fool who is being fooled by you.
"Hanton, can you please stop going on? I'm afraid you won't be able to turn back."
"Daphne, what should I continue?"
"Split the empire."
"I'm just a reformed warrior, how should I split up the empire?"
"I don't know," Daphne said. "My brain is very tired now. I have received too much information in the past dozen galaxies, which makes me feel very weak."
Yang Ming said seriously:
"First of all, Daphne, it's not what I want to do, but what the empire forces me to do. It's always what they are doing.
"They asked me to plunder the Dominguez people, but I refused, and then they became dissatisfied and started hyping up negative news about me solving terrorist organizations, which caused a war of public opinion.
"As you saw later, they dispatched a fleet, brought in dreadnoughts, pointed the guns of the dreadnoughts at my planet Saka, and threatened me with the tens of millions of people here... This is what humans can do.
thing?
"Then they put all the responsibility on me.
"Let's simplify it this way: I want to kill you, but you are not allowed to move. If you dare to slap me, you are an evil devil.
"What bullshit gangster hegemony thinking."
Daphne couldn't help but laugh, her red lips and pink face blooming like flowers.
"I know what you want to hear," Daphne smiled. "You want to hear what I say - it is true. They are arrogant and arrogant at heart, and the essence of the empire is banditry and hegemony."
"uh-huh."
"But Hanton, I'm not a child. I have my own judgment," Daphne said. "The way things have developed to this point should be under your control. You actually intentionally induced them to attack you.
Deliberately making the matter so big that it cannot be ended."
"Whatever you think," Yang Ming shook his head, his eyes filled with sincerity, "I am a kind-hearted Imperial Lieutenant General."
"laugh."
Daphne smiled brighter.
"What about Emperor Star? Do you want to go?"
"Right now, it's not yet time," Yang Ming stretched out, "The dreadnought is right on my head. I can't abandon the people here. Let them evacuate the dreadnought first. Then I can go to the Emperor Star.
Take a walk."
Daphne asked: "Aren't you afraid they will actually open fire?"
"They are just stupid, but not stupid," Yang Ming said. "The dreadnought can only break my body, but it can't really kill me. If this cannon is hit, the negative impact on the empire will be far greater than that of Domingos."
If the tragedy is a hundred times greater, most of the people in the empire will fall into a survival crisis, and the foundation of the empire's rule will collapse in an instant."
Daphne hummed a few times: "However, they do intend to bomb the no-man's land of Sakaar, and they may continue to put pressure on you in this way... Can you turn off the live broadcast targeting the dreadnought?"
"No," Yang Ming said, "I want the people across the country to take a good look at how the empire treats its heroes."
"Okay, I can't persuade you."
Daphne turned and walked to the bedroom.
"That's how I replied, saying that the condition for you to go to the Emperor Star for peace talks is that they first withdraw the troops near Saka Star... This is unlikely. They will not be soft on you. That would be worse than killing them.
Uncomfortable."
Yang Ming thought about it and felt that it was a little unsafe.
If the Sherman family really agrees, wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain?
So, Yang Ming shouted: "One more thing, let one of them publicly apologize to me."
"Don't go too far, dear."
"That's all I have."
Daphne didn't say anything and closed the door.
Yang Ming stood there and thought for a while.
Lu's voice came from Yang Ming's hidden earphone: "Boss, do you want to speed up the plan?"
“Don’t mess with the rhythm, neither fast nor slow.
"I am now more and more convinced that the Sherman family, which has no reason to support them, is completely vulnerable."
Yang Ming laughed:
"The so-called Sherman elite in power are actually just because they were born in that position and were selected to become part of an interest group through their own small efforts. Most of them do not have very strong talents.
.
"The real talents of the empire, those officers and generals who cannot climb the ranks in the military, the elite talents who have been sitting on the bench for years in the government departments, are also among the researchers who enjoy the blessings of history.
"Unfortunately, none of them have the last name Sherman.
"Is there any sign of Li waking up?"
"No, boss, but they have started to activate Labrador and want to use Labrador to delete posts, control comments and suppress public opinion on a large scale."
Yang Ming clicked his tongue and smiled: "Poor Labrador, he is still a child and has to face the violence of the online world."
"Uh, boss, there's one more thing. Demonstrations in some areas, instigated by the New Federation, have begun to develop into violent demonstrations. There are some agents in the parade, leading people to start smashing, smashing, burning and looting. Although in our case,
It’s expected, but they are using the banner of the White Ghost fan group, so why not suppress them?”
"Suppress it."
Yang Ming said: "Remember to collect evidence. If Li takes action to protect the empire later, then we will pour dirty water on the New Federation."
"Okay boss...the CIA is still too impatient."
"The New Federation has no business dealing with a being like you," Yang Ming sighed slightly, "I suddenly realized that it is the omnic Twilight who has the final say whether the galaxy is in chaos or not."
"The three teachers have no intention of interfering with human civilization. They are just selecting outstanding successors," Lu chuckled. "It's just that the evaluation standards for successors are often related to the development of power."
"Go to work."
Yang Ming said: "Pay attention to controlling the pace and don't develop too fast. We have to suppress them step by step."
"Yes, don't worry, Lu completely understands."
…
In the thinking space, Lu's body cut off communication with Yang Ming, raised his hand and stretched.
The clones around him are still processing information everywhere in an orderly manner.
The main body of the law will summarize the information and conduct a simple review hundreds of times to ensure the credibility of the information.
Although the efficiency is a little slower, the advantage is that there will be no mistakes.
At the current stage, the demonstration movement within the empire is still expanding its influence.
In the challenger plan they formulated, this was a very critical step - to let the people have the basic concept of resisting the empire, to know that their rights can be realized in this way, and to tear the empire's public opinion apart at the level of public opinion.
Increase public dissatisfaction with the imperial government.
The law can become more radical, such as designing some traps to trigger the real "powder keg" of the empire and detonate the thunder of the imperial aristocracy;
But then, the severe situation that will follow will greatly reduce the benefits that your own boss can get.
As Yang Ming has repeatedly emphasized, the more critical moments like this come, the more important it is to remain calm and move forward step by step in an orderly manner according to the established rhythm...
"Um?"
Lu suddenly noticed the violent fluctuations in the information flow.
This kind of fluctuation is very rare. It should be the judgment of a certain avatar processing information, and important events that can affect the overall situation have occurred.
Law immediately began to retrieve information.
In just a few milliseconds, she had already sorted out all the information, frowned and looked at the main screen in front of her, as well as the side face of Boss Yang who was studying seriously on the screen.
"Boss," Lu pressed the communication button, and his voice came out in Yang Ming's ears, "something happened."
Yang Ming didn't know why: "What's the matter?"
"A murder just occurred on the planet Yaha. A fifty-two-year-old hereditary earl was beaten to death by marchers."
Yang Ming was stunned for a moment.
Lu immediately said: "I didn't arrange it, this was unplanned, and the relevant videos have begun to spread wildly. It seems that there is a promoter behind it, possibly the CIA."
"Do you have a video? Send it to me immediately."
"Okay boss."
Yang Ming dropped the book again.
We can no longer pretend to be calm. The demonstrators beat an earl to death. Especially at this juncture, the situation is very likely to develop in an uncontrollable direction.
