As for Ms. Leia on the TV, I have to admit that she is really a very elegant beauty, but the front and the back are actually two images. Mr. Qi couldn't help but touch his neck with a wry smile, and closed the door.
With the electronic record book for work, I leaned on the sofa behind me, picked up the coffee, and prepared to take a rest.
Mr. Qi is the recently retired Ambassador of the Community to the Empire, and is also a member of the conference delegation temporarily invited by the Earth Government. Of course, he knows that this lady’s name is Leia Morn, she is fifty years old, and she is the Alliance’s Permanent Representative to the Galactic Civilization Parliament.
The chief representative is from the famous Moen family, one of the seventeen families in the alliance.
In addition, she was also the culprit who dug a big hole for the empire (and the community by the way) during the emergency meeting.
Of course, the Alliance is the beacon of the republican democratic system of the entire galaxy. Of course, there is no clique that rules everything. Please don't associate it with it for no reason.
The ancestors of the Moen family have indeed produced many celebrities and dignitaries, but this family can be traced back to the era of the Alliance's home planet, so having celebrities is just a matter of probability.
Although this lady is fifty years old, she takes good care of herself and can still be regarded as a dazzling beauty. In addition, her conversation is elegant and knowledgeable, so her media image is naturally very good. Of course,
She is also very good at and keen on managing media images.
No, the second emergency meeting was going to be held the next day, but she actually still had the heart to participate in a political talk show. Facing the sharp questions of the famous news host opposite, she still smiled sweetly at the camera.
, said seriously, "I understand your concerns about the people of the New World and the safety of shipping. But the problem now is that we are facing problems that we have never faced in the nearly half century since the Star Gate was opened. If we don't take it out in advance
A prudent plan will leave hidden dangers far greater than those caused by predators."
"You mean, it's more harmful than predators?" The host's face showed strong interest: "Can you be more specific?"
"Yeah, I'm very interested too. You know, the predators got rid of the defense line of the galactic center, threatening not only the tens of millions of people in the Empire's Glory Governor's Region and the Community's New World Sector. In fact, it also includes the mainland of the galaxy.
Inside, each of us is in danger!" said another guest.
Guest A is an Angmang man, and is said to be a well-known media and political commentator. Anyway, Mr. Qi doesn’t know him. In other words, most humans have a hard time distinguishing the looks of different races, and Mr. Qi is one of them.
.
However, what he said is also very reasonable. Although the main fleet of predators has penetrated into the deep space of the New World and has disappeared (temporarily). But no one can say whether they really dug out more details from where.
Star map. Except for the Community Colonies and the Empire's Glory Governor-General, the physical distance between these predators and the nearest galactic colony is tens of thousands of light years, and high-speed battleships and cruise ships need to travel for several months. But no one can guarantee that,
In a year and a half, will they suddenly appear outside any colony and give everyone a big surprise?
In the same way, since they can break through the Gate of Glory, they can certainly break through any star gate and enter the galaxy, threatening the homeland of any country.
Predators are so-called space nomads. Isn't the most troublesome thing about nomads this kind of uncertainty?
However, Leia Morn pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, I still insist on my point of view. The Galactic Civilization Parliament must formulate a new New Continent Convention, and at least propose a revised plan recognized by the majority of member states. This is far more than plundering
The existence of the predators is much more important! If we rashly send a heavy troop group to the New World without solving these problems, regardless of whether we can find the main force of the predators, even if we really eliminate them, we may usher in a disaster.
Another galactic war."
This host, who has hosted a senior political commentary program for many years, has heard all kinds of violent comments in the program, but even so, he had a brief silence and managed not to lose his composure.
"Galaxy War? You are making big claims...Aren't you too pessimistic?" Another guest B had a gloomy face, and he could not stand it at all. Of course, this gentleman's job is actually a sociologist.
He is neither a senior media person nor a politician, so his expression management skills are certainly not very professional.
"Professor, this is not pessimism, but a summary of past history! Since we have launched four wars because of the control of a waterway, the suzerainty of a star field, and even the ownership of a galaxy. Then, when the entire galaxy
When the armies of various countries march into the New World in a mighty manner and search the mountains and seas to find the main force of the predators, what should we do with the waterways and galaxies discovered along the way? Will it happen before we find the predators?
Is the fight starting?"
Ms. Moen still maintained her elegant smile, and continued to output content that made the viewers in front of the TV restless with her warm and magnetic voice.
"Well, Professor, if you say it is pessimistic, it can be considered a kind of pessimism. Perhaps I am pessimistic about human nature, and even more pessimistic about the national will formed by the integration of human nature."
The boss and the old customers looked at each other in silence. They were just ordinary citizens, and they really didn't understand much, but they were still deeply shocked.
One host and four guests were speechless. It was not that they thought there was anything wrong with what Ms. Moen said, at least they didn't find it immediately, but they were shocked that the other party would say it so explicitly.
However, as a media official who is good at debating, Ms. Leia Morn will not let go of such an opportunity. She turns to the camera as if she is speaking to the public in front of the TV:
"I believe that the most politically intelligent forefathers thirty years ago were also such pragmatic pessimists. There are too many complicated historical issues in various disputes in the Milky Way, and they are so complicated that they are already very confusing.
It is difficult to come up with a public opinion that everyone accepts. However, in the new continent, which is as clean as a blank sheet of paper, we can at least start from scratch and establish a more civilized way. Perhaps it can also become a model for the local galaxy."
These are the New World Arms Treaty, the New World Public Waterways Treaty, the New World Aboriginal Civilization Protection Treaty, and the most important New World Development Treaty.
Let's not mention the previous ones, let's just talk about the last one, the "New World Development Treaty". The treaty stipulates that in the New World, only habitable planets in the country, or galaxies with space stations with a population of more than 300,000, and the surrounding four-jump range
Only the galaxies in the galaxy will be recognized as the territory, and the other galaxies are the so-called "high seas".
Similarly, it is not possible to turn a habitable planet into a country by planting a flag on it. It must require a considerable degree of development to ensure that there are more than 100,000 settled people.
The existence of this treaty objectively guarantees that all countries and civilizations have the right to explore the New World. To be more clear, as long as the Alliance is willing to pay tolls, their scientific research ships can also pass through the Empire's Gate of Glory.
, explore around the Governor's District of Glory.
With it, the era of burying an unmanned space station in all the shipping lanes and galaxies in the mainland and staking the claim will be gone forever.
Regardless of whether there are hidden dangers in this treaty, at least since its establishment, it has been regarded as the most constructive work done by the Galactic Civilization Council since its establishment.
Of course, Mr. Qi in front of the TV knew that this treaty was actually largely due to the Seventh Galactic War. Both the Empire and the Alliance were greatly traumatized. Both overlords had great control over their vassal states.
It has been weakened to a certain extent. In addition, the community, a human country that instantly expanded into the "third largest military power" after independence, is connected up and down in it. Objectively speaking, it is true that the countries have a short-term unity, forcing the two hegemons to make concessions.
.
...Well, no wonder the two major countries want to make trouble for the people on earth. They are obviously human countries.
During the subsequent program time, Ms. Moen also gave her own answers to other questions.
Of course she has her own reasons, but who can be on this kind of program without her own opinions? As a result, the other guests also left the show, and the scene suddenly became a bit like a quarrel with other scholars.
Of course, this is also the best time to watch this kind of program.
No, although the guests in the cafe were all watching a show, they still felt pretty good.
Probably this kind of serious political commentary program gives people a high-class atmosphere. It doesn’t mean whoever has a louder voice, who can bully someone and who is shameless can win. The guests who go there are all respectable, and they really can’t afford to embarrass this person.
However, when it comes to talking around logic, who can beat the diplomats? Although everyone joined in, they were still losing ground in front of Ms. Leia Morn, who was obviously proficient in debating.
Mr. Qi, who was in front of the TV, understood it clearly. Of course, he could tell that the lady was suspected of changing concepts and playing on the slippery slope fallacy, but the truth was actually quite clear.
To sum it up, if the army marches into the New World, the newly discovered planets and waterways will not belong to the explorers but to the military. Whose family does it belong to? How to ensure that the arrogant soldiers will abide by the treaty? The army sets off, in order to
A series of facilities must be built to maintain logistics. Does a fortress with 200,000 logistics and reserve personnel count as residents? Does putting 500,000 troops on a habitable planet count as residents?
If the treaty is not abided by, how will the fleets of various countries fight to seize new shipping lanes and planets? Once a fight starts, how will they end?
The New World is not the mainland of the Milky Way, and there is no source of energy wave communication. The only serious thing is that the fate of the foreign king will not be accepted.
At the end, guest C, whose name was not important, couldn't help but patted the table in a gaffe, and said loudly: "But in this way, doesn't it mean that the heaviest burden will be handed over to the people of the colonies and a small number of security forces?
"
Guest D also said: "Isn't there a better way? Is it necessary to delay time?"
"Unfortunately, we are not great enlighteners. Our civilization is not long. The time we have entered the universe is less than three thousand years, and the short time is eight hundred years. In this vast universe, we are just toddlers.
We are far from perfect, which is why we have had the past seven galactic wars. But it is precisely in order to learn these lessons that we have these interstellar conventions. The Galactic Civilization Council was established for 834 years.
, and in the past thirty years or so, we have formulated more interstellar conventions than in the previous eight hundred years, but it has also been the most peaceful years since nations set foot in the universe."
At this point, Ms. Moen sighed and showed a sad look: "It is precisely because we are not perfect that we need treaties to limit our evil thoughts. It is precisely in order to avoid more cruel disputes and killings that we must
We must carefully formulate a more perfect treaty. But before that... However, I believe that the soldiers and civilians of the New World, as well as all the natives of the New World who are bathed in the glory of galactic civilization, will never succumb to the atrocities of the predators!
They can definitely hold on until our rescue arrives, and we will definitely arrive too!"
She is really good at stirring up emotions and speaking skills. Several guests were persuaded at the scene, not to mention the audience.
No, the guests in the cafe in front of the TV all said that what the lady said was quite reasonable.
Anyway, they live in Huaxu, where the Galactic Civilization Council and the Void Spirit Temple are located. Even if the New World is smashed, it has nothing to do with them. It is even said that even if the galactic mainland fights, they will not be able to reach them.
The past three galactic wars are enough to prove this point.
Of course, there are those who are convinced, and there are those who will never be convinced. For example, the boss couldn't help but slap the table and yelled: "It's easy to put it. Where are the crew members who run ships in the New World? They live there.
Where is the person? Anyway, the person who was thrown into the protein compressor by the predator couldn't be a big shot like her, nor could it be her family! What a fucking bitch, she only knows how to say nice things."
At this time, he forgot that he had said "she is so charming" half an hour ago.
Regular customers hurried over to comfort him, and finally the boss didn't destroy his shop.
At this time, she heard her say again: "My daughter is now in the New Yumen Colony of the New World Community. I am perhaps the most impatient of all the national representatives in Huaxu, hoping to immediately send out the army to rescue. However,
Since I am here, I must represent the voice of the alliance and give everyone a voice of reason."
When the words reached this level, no one, whether inside or outside the TV set, could judge him morally.
Mr. Qi looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face on the screen in silence. After a few seconds, he raised the corners of his mouth and sneered. He drank the cold coffee in front of him in one gulp and opened his electronic notes.
Just as he was about to start writing, the door of the cafe was opened, and a figure came to his table. He paused, sat down, and then lowered his voice and said: "Sir, it has been confirmed that the Republic of Minlan and Ledo
The Kingdom of La will support the alliance's proposal and request to postpone the amendment of the "New Continental Arms Treaty". And the second meeting held tomorrow, the main topic is still the discussion of the "Development Treaty". On the other side of the Earth, it is a bit difficult.
I can’t stand the pressure anymore…”
"It's expected." Mr. Qi sighed: "Xiao Tan, tell me, what kind of power can make a noble, pampered, innocent and kind-hearted young lady become such a monster? She
He has an elegant conversation, a generous temperament, and a charming smile, but he can put tens of millions of people on the altar without changing his expression, including his own daughter."
Tan Jize looked at the TV screen and immediately understood what the other party meant.
"Miss Tyna Morn, the daughter of Ms. Leia Morn, is indeed in the New Jade Gate. I have obtained her entry record at the Gate of Glory three months ago."
Mr. Qi nodded: "So, I am now convinced again, Xiao Tan, as our friends said, what we are fighting against is not the empire or the alliance itself, but the power that turns a girl into a monster.
Therefore, we need weapons."
He touched his notes and showed a smug smile again: "I feel like a swordsmith now. I have been writing for fifty years, but I have never had such a fulfilling experience!"
