Chapter 1019 Hidden dangers and essence

Michel Kent was startled for a moment, and then showed a wry smile: "Suddenly, it hurts so much to be slapped in the face by you... However, you do understand better than me. This may be because of being a rentier and a

That’s the limit of being a carnivore.”

"This is not a limitation, but a problem of imagination. We all come from the rentier class. We have no real contact with the people at the bottom and cannot imagine what they think. But this guy Hachiman is different after all.

, after all, he is also a military and political general who has presided over the entire construction of New Yumen." Wayne sneered.

"You said you don't need to be so obviously arrogant when you say that you are a versatile military and political person. However, I am indeed very proud." Akinayama Hachiman wiped his glasses clean and put them back on.

Horatio Wayne ignored it and said to Kent: "You have to have confidence in yourself. Although Yu Lian said that you are a cautious person, you are also the best thinker among us."

"What, what's the matter? The more you talk about it, the more it goes too far! And why does it become slang when it comes to me?"

You only listen to the first half of the sentence when you co-authored it?

In short, if Horatio Wayne had not shown an expression of impatience, everyone might have discussed these theoretical issues about the nature of society some more. However, there is indeed a point in discussing such issues in public.

It’s better to get back to the point now about the suspicion of key government uniforms.

In short, in the "War of Conviction", both the empire and the community dropped more than 100,000 marine troops on that huge planet in the shortest possible time. At first glance, it was just to grab the land... ah no, in order to restore the planet as soon as possible

law and order.

But no matter what, the troops that landed on the empire side still had an advantage in quantity and combat effectiveness. After twelve hours of stronghold attack and surface battles, the two armies of the empire occupied twelve settlements and military fortresses.

Nine, and the Earth side finally managed to win three.

However, the hidden danger is that one of the settlements occupied by the Earthlings is located exactly in the middle of an isthmus, and is also located exactly in the center of the spheres of influence of the two empires. If both sides colonize this planet in the future, there will definitely be geopolitical conflicts.

Conflict on...

Well, because of the problem of fleets stationed in orbit, the geopolitical conflicts on the surface are not as important as imagined, but we can't stand the thought of someone looking for trouble in this direction.

Of course, now that everyone is still cooperating sincerely, although most of the main force of the Marauders has been wiped out, it is estimated that various security wars will still be fought for a while. Anyway, although some people in the Empire say strange things, at least the official has not done anything to protect the earth.

to challenge the actions of other parties in occupying these important places.

However, upon hearing this, Hachiman didn't think it was a good thing and couldn't help but said, "Didn't Teacher Yang object?"

"I objected, but I couldn't find a very convincing reason. Moreover, the landing operation on the Holy Land planet was personally planned by Ms. Tivington, Chief of Staff." Kent said.

"...That accountant lady is really troublesome." Hachiman couldn't help but press his temple.

The so-called "Ms. Accountant" is, of course, the nickname of Lieutenant General Tivington, Chief of Staff of the Expeditionary Force. It means that the guy's temperament is more like that of a white-collar business elite. In the military, he works as a housekeeper and accountant.

His job is just not like a chief of staff.

But no matter what, he is also a genuine chief of staff after all. In the previous strategy for Devil's Throat Fortress, your deputy, Yang Xiyi, already stole the show. Is there no room for the commander to show off his performance?

Therefore, with the support of Admiral Connor Reese, Chief of Staff Tivington formulated a planet landing plan.

Under such circumstances, no matter how polite Lieutenant General Seyo and others are to this "academic" chief of staff who is not worthy of the name, they cannot disobey orders. What's more, considering the facts, this battle has a track.

The battle for air supremacy and absolute superiority of troops could not be said to be a great one, but at least there were no visible flaws. The community's marine forces indeed successfully completed the set tactical objectives.

Under such circumstances, even with Yang Xiyi's current prestige, he still couldn't persuade the army to give up the spoils because of some "ominous premonition".

However, since it is a Holy Land Star Region that is larger than Yaochi, how can the Empire be willing to share it with the community? How can this be considered a trophy? It is obviously bait smeared with poison, right?

Thinking of this, Hachiman suddenly understood: "I understand what Teacher Yang means. Once the handover with Yaochi is completed, I will rush back to Xinyumen as soon as possible."

Kent nodded and added: "Teacher Yang said that he also hoped that he was overthinking everything, but since the times have given us responsibilities, we must prepare for a rainy day."

Wayne sneered: "How can such a good thing happen? Something will happen here in the New World."

"...King Solane and Admiral Connors just held a press conference together last week, saying that they had reached a preliminary consensus. They said that such a chosen and promised land should not belong to one country, but

It belongs to all intelligent races in the universe. It is hoped that it can be hosted in the name of the Galactic Civilization Council, shelving the sovereignty dispute, and jointly developed. It is also hoped that this star field can be changed into the Dawn Star Field, and it is hoped that it can become the domain of all countries and races in the universe.

Let's join hands to start the dawn of a prosperous and peaceful future." Kent said. But at the end of the sentence, his own tone gradually weakened, and it was obvious that he didn't quite believe it.

"It's because of this press conference that I feel that something will happen. The more something is lacking, the more something will be promoted. This has been true since ancient times." Horatio Wayne said: "And, haven't we already had a conflict?

?”

It's not about fighting for spoils and territory. After all, the Dawn Star Territory is too big to occupy, and everyone's main energy is also chasing down the remaining enemies. The empire now doesn't even pay much attention to its own younger brothers secretly demarcating territory, let alone

You will be able to meet people on Earth.

However, on that holy planet, the two parties still clashed, and they were only one step away from a conflict.

This was what happened before the press conference that "announced the arrival of dawn" began. The troops of the Hell Parachute Division, which had just occupied a settlement, were on a normal patrol with the men of the 141st Imperial Stormtrooper Division in a helpless battle.

They met in the wilderness. The other party had about a company of fierce Wulfling soldiers, escorting thousands of prisoners of war.

Of course, among these prisoners of war were soldiers from the raiders, but there were also slave workers from other races, and even a considerable number of old, weak, women and children.

"Are you going?" The officer leading the team is Captain Parkin, who has become the company commander. He currently leads a reinforced company of more than 180 people plus all vehicles. On the one hand, he patrols, and on the other hand, he

On the one hand, it was exploration, on the other hand, it was training. In terms of military strength alone, he had an absolute advantage, and his attitude became much more ambiguous.

Captain Wofflin, who was leading the team on the opposite side, probably thought of this and behaved quite politely: "Clean the ground?"

"Clean, clean..."

"Yes, this planet is so sacred, and it should not be left with such filth. However, if you shoot it directly, it can only be used as fertilizer at most, but if you rush to the wilderness over there, it is possible to kill a feather

Bring out the king beast."

"Yu, Yuwangmon?"

"Yes, yesterday a reconnaissance drone indeed discovered the existence of a planet lord-level phantom beast, which is very similar to the Feather King Beast. The gentlemen of the Knights ordered me to collect as many traces of him as possible. I estimate that the Feather King Beast

The beast is a phantom beast that likes to attack large groups of prey. Since it looks so similar, I can't believe that I can draw him out."

To be fair, Captain Parkin is just an ordinary officer, not so full of class emotions, but as an ordinary person, his simple sense of justice and compassion still exist. Even if he encounters trolls, long-bearded monsters and Erro warriors, he will also

Kill without hesitation and use the most effective means to eliminate the opponent. However, this does not mean that you will attack women and children who are powerless. What's more, there are many slave workers present.

The soldiers of the Hell Parachute Division have been stationed in Yaochi for a little over a month. They have had many interactions with the slave workers in the settlement and know very well what state they are in.

Most of them are just a group of poor people who live by instinct.

"Let them go!" Captain Parkin raised his gun and aimed at the Wulfling company commander: "I said, let them go!"

Then, after a brief period of confusion, the Earthlings and the Wulflings under the empire also hurriedly raised their weapons and began a long confrontation. On the contrary, the prisoners who were about to be sent to the hunting ground each and every one of them

At a loss.

Fortunately, the overall situation now is still a moment of sincere cooperation between the allied forces of the Galaxy. Although everyone used fists, no weapons were used, and no deaths occurred. After more senior officers arrived, the conflict was finally resolved.

.

Captain Parkin was placed in solitary confinement, but after negotiation with Yang Xiyi, Lieutenant General Sayo and others, no further punishment was given. On the contrary, he was a blessing in disguise. His name really spread to the ears of the generals, ordinary soldiers and officers.

In the middle, it can also be said that "this old man Parkin is a man and can handle it".

However, while Brother Parkin was in confinement, Lieutenant Colonel Winters' troops were already on the other side of the planet and saw with their own eyes that the Imperial Army burned an already large-scale newly built city to the ground. The Imperial Stormtroopers took

Machine guns blocked all intersections and tore into pieces all movable targets trying to escape the sea of ​​fire.

"Suddenly I feel that we have become the evil invaders." Lieutenant Colonel Winter lamented in a depressed mood.

However, he just sighed now.

The cosmic war between various nations and races has been like this for more than a thousand years before the beginning of the common calendar, and it is estimated that it will be like this in the next thousand years.

It is unavoidable that both sides on the battlefield are furious and commit atrocities against prisoners of war and even the people in the occupied areas. People who have experienced a massacre of corpses and seas of blood, but can still maintain a normal sense and conscience, may be

Yes, but there are no violent groups like the army.

This is human nature that is both inevitable and difficult to overcome!

What's more, those who were harmed were only predators. To put it bluntly, they were enhanced versions of pirates, and they never had human rights. The officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army had so many things to do, they had no time to distinguish between soldiers and slave labor.

Moreover, it was the stormtroopers who took action after all, not even the Panzergrenadiers, let alone the always spotless and honorable Astral Knights.

By the time His Highness Brunhilt, King of Sulyuka, took over the law enforcement and supervision of the entire army, it was said that more than one million prisoners of war and slave labor had died at the hands of the empire.

...Of course, the community's army has actually done similar things. However, after Lieutenant General Seyo personally killed a brigade commander and three regiment commanders, military discipline suddenly improved a lot.

"Miss Melia in "Cold Hill" hoped that the colonel would be her savior, so she paid a lot of price, but was fooled by fate! But rather than being fooled by fate, it is better to say that she was taken advantage of by the bad guys with pus from the soles of their feet.

Yes. I have already played a bad guy once, but labor and management are not bad guys in the real world!"

Lieutenant General Seyo said this before he personally shot the brigade commander to death.

It is difficult for everyone to imagine what the brigade commander who was shot was thinking before he died. However, his head was indeed very useful in improving military discipline.

In short, this is the source of the "small frictions" between the community and the empire. When there are small frictions, there will naturally be insurmountable conflicts, which of course requires preparation for a rainy day. This is Yang Xiyi's plan.

"Speaking of which, Yu Lian started the layout in Xinyumen so early. Did he also expect this?" Kent said.

Akinayama Hachiman pushed up his glasses and fell into deep thought.

But Horatio Wayne laughed: "You guys think too highly of you. I believe there are far-sighted strategists in this world, and he may be one of them, but strategy is not witchcraft after all, he is just

I’m just addicted to farming.”

Both of them immediately felt that what the red-haired man said made sense.

However, when it comes to farming, the friends of the Lion Heart Society naturally become more dissatisfied with the empire's atrocities.

"Even from an extreme realism perspective, those Tirello orangutans are quite a waste! There are planets everywhere in the Dawn Star Territory that can be developed, and manpower is needed everywhere." Wayne said.

"Don't you know what the empire does? Their conquests have lasted for more than two thousand years since the Age of Discovery. All races that are willing to obey the royal family of the dawn can be included in the embrace of the empire. Up to now, the empire has directly

The number of intelligent races under our control is now in three digits, right? But now, the total human population is still over 50%, and it controls almost all of the most prosperous and easily accessible galaxies," Kent said.

"Development can be a little slower, but the country must not be in chaos," Akina said.

"In this regard, the Alliance does a better job than the Empire. The non-stop wars always create refugees all the time. The Kingdom of Cirke, the Principality of Hyrule, the Feimo Nebula, and the New World, but as long as the national affairs are not kidnapped by the populists,

, Refugees can actually create value. As long as the refugees want to find a way to live and work in peace and contentment, they can use cheap illegal labor to replace formal workers. Such good consumables can just stay." Kent sighed:

"Of course, the universe is so big, and now there is a new continent. There is always a place to act as a pressure relief valve for people who have lost their jobs, and they don't have to worry about getting lost. Moreover, for carnivores, the pioneers who have lost everything are comparable to those who have lost everything.

It is much easier for middle-class immigrants with stable jobs and property. Unfortunately, the community is also learning from the alliance, but it is afraid that if you learn four things, you will not reap the consequences."

Seeing his two friends looking at him, Mihir Kent laughed: "This is not my own opinion, but what was said in a letter from an old man named Tan Jize. Although I have not added it, you all

Have you heard of his name? He will definitely be a soldier in the same trench in the future, so I have been communicating with him. This is a real genius, and he has already understood the essence of society."
