A total of ten, a month after Japan's return to the world, the text of the message to the world, is also the hottest in the world at present, no

, even if it is the only topic, it is not an exaggeration.

Everyone was shocked by this "new ten", not because of how extreme its requirements were, but on the contrary, the new day

Ben's mildness surpasses the most positive speculation of almost all optimists.

Judging from what ZERO has done since his debut, he is undoubtedly the highest-level general, and he is only afraid of war in the world

There are no opponents, smart people of the first class.

But if you talk about his words and deeds, he speaks with thorns and no mercy, wherever you hurt him, he pokes him, and wherever you don't see people, he will do it

Wherever it is lifted, there is no negotiation, and the problem is always solved in the most extreme way, such as a tooth for a tooth and blood for a blood.

And his concept of "never killing or injuring civilians" and "brothers from all over the world" put on a pure one for him

The aura of an idealist.

Based on this, analysts, strategists, and psychologists in various countries have all come to the same conclusion -- the year of ZERO

Ji will not be big, he is a stunned young man. He caught the empire off guard with a desperate force, but...

・・The miracle ends here.

The country is not something that bandits and others can play with.

It is this brief national policy that subverts everyone's impressions. There is no ZERO between the lines, and there is no Black Knights

figure. It seems that the new Japan has nothing to do with this terrorist organization, and there is no other party in the composition of the country

- although everyone knows that this is impossible.

Hiding behind the scenes, manipulating the country in the dark?

Emperors in the shadows? That's what ZERO wants?

Or is this guy really so noble? Retired after success, disarmed and returned to the field? But in his capacity, say to give up arming

It's basically the same as putting a noose around your neck.

"Of course not."

The blonde youth smiled and put down the report in his hand, crossed his fingers on the table, and answered the adjutant who had just entered the door

Issue.

"The Imperial Brother wants to take this opportunity to say, 'The Black Knights have never belonged to Japan, and they have never belonged to any country.' Expand your sphere of influence even further. On the surface, it seems that Japan has been abandoned, but in fact it has come to the world

World. ”

Kano said yes, but there was still a little blankness in his eyes.

This move... No matter how you think about it, you attack the other's strengths with your own shortcomings.

In terms of armed forces, the Black Knights are negligible compared to the three poles, and the armed revolution is a no-brainer

Can three. Under the current high-pressure fire prevention policy of the Empire, in other colonies not to mention organizing uprisings, exceeded

Ten people walking side by side on the road had to be pressed to the ground and fed peanuts, and the scale of the terrorist organization was definitely not large.

The only bargaining chip the other party had was the bomb, and now he gave it up・・・・・・

"The emperor's brother has really grown too much, and in seven years, his whole person has been polished and mellowed." Schunezel light

He sighed lightly, with a hint of relief in his tone. "Sixteen or seventeen years old, fight when you should fight, and collect when you should receive

Collect, hide needles in the cotton. At his age, I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be his opponent. ”

"Yes."

"Do you have any thoughts after reading these ten?"

The adjutant groaned for a moment.

"Sakuraishi, it's not good for the empire. Originally, the empire could monopolize more than sixty percent, but now it has been cut in half. very

It is clear that the empire is being weakened in the name of fairness. ”

"Yes, it's a measure to rebalance the world, and what else?"

Kano was silent.

Schunezel shook his head regretfully.

"You still have a long way to go, Kano-kun."

"Yes."

"Here." Schunezel nodded the first one in front of him. "What does 'permanent neutrality' mean?"

"There is no such thing as a 'neutral country' in this world. Japan eight years ago also claimed neutrality,

But in reality, it colluded with the Federation to impose sanctions on the Empire, and now it is just the same trick. ”

"The same trick?" Schunezel smiled playfully. "Then we can use the same means

Against Japan? ”

“・・・・・・”

Of course it can't be, the current United States of Japan is the only one in the world that has the world's extinction-level force. Never

No one with a little brain in the nonsense of the Apocalypse will believe it, and if the empire really buys his account, he will do it all the way

When you get to Tokyo, you will see if ZERO dares to press that button.

"But, in that case, why mention the establishment of that so-called regulatory organization?"

"This is the art of politics." Schunezel looked at the telegram, his fingers lightly tapping to the mahogany table

Face. "Mt. Fuji is in Japan, so you can't run away. It's like holding a diamond in your hand and showing it to everyone

'Look, this is what we all have,' but in fact no one can touch it. He can do as long as he wants

Put it back in your pocket.

But this is another mention that no one can refuse---everyone's lives are in his hands, Shen

It's better to talk than nothing, but if you don't participate, you'll have nothing. At least he gave everyone a place to speak

Isn't it?

As people gradually join this organization, a... 'United Nations' for the time being, let's put it this way

The political entity was gradually born. And Japan, as a neutral country that is beyond secular strife, has the apocalypse in its hands

This magic hammer will become the uncrowned king of this stage.

It is not uncommon for no one to come up with the idea of a third-party organization, an international tribunal

Resolving international disputes and minimizing wars has led to the death of these ideas. The reason is simple-

-- The empire does not want mediation at all, let alone the so-called international order. It's like a flock of sheep meeting to ask for a wolf

Don't eat them as ridiculous. Therefore, as long as the empire does not participate, no international law is a dead letter.

Now it's different, this sword empire must be suffered, otherwise, not to mention far away, Sakurashi doesn't know who to go with. ”

"Japan wants to become the fourth largest power?"

"No, not the fourth, but the creator of the new order, the ultimate enforcer above the three poles."

It's a very clever skill, but...

"Why don't you just force the Empire to hand over all the numbered districts, otherwise everyone will be doomed?"

Isn't that more convenient?

"It should be known to the emperor's brother that asking the empire to hand over all its colonies is tantamount to letting the empire die. It's easy to make a skinny person grow ten pounds

, but it is impossible to survive if you cut ten pounds of flesh. He knew that the empire would never die in silence.

Moreover, once this demand is spoken, no matter how the Empire reacts, the Black Knights will become the public enemy of the world,

It is very likely that the numbered area itself will not buy his account, and if he does not promise to live, it is possible that everyone will die

Is it. ”

I see.

Under the premise that "the book of Revelation cannot be used", the soft power of the "Book of Revelation" is brought into full play. It seems to be warm

And, in fact, there is a needle in the cotton.

It's like **, but the enemy has to eat it.

This is the opponent of the Empire.

Eastland King Britannia.

A man who plays with the world in the palm of his hand.

"Your Highness, I guess you're very pleased, right?"

Kano finally understood the meaning behind Schunezel's smile.

"Is it seen?" The prince plays with the feathers on his chest. "I hate war, Kano-kun, than anyone

Both disgusted, I knew I had the power to put an end to this qiē. But ・・・・・・"

There are no secrets, no challenges in this world for him, all a qiē is in the sun. Plan, implement, complete

Gong, three points and one line, and one qiē are all matters of time.

In this life, I have never played a game of chess in adversity.

From beginning to end, the opponent places the pieces in the grid he wants like a puppet, and in the end, the direction is inevitable

of failures.

How boring is it・・・・・・

"Don't talk about that." Schunezel smiled and waved his hand, motioning for the lieutenant to turn his attention back to the article. "Now

Anything new? Remember, the less the other person says, it doesn't mean less meaning, on the contrary, it means playing empty

The larger the room. ”

Kano knew that this was the prince teaching himself, and his brow furrowed slightly, trying to get something out of the text.

Not component army?

That's right, the army means nothing to Japan, it's better to cut it directly.

The Black Knights are neither an army nor a policeman, so they are naturally not subject to this rule. Then do not send to foreign countries

The armed forces also make sense, the Black Knights do not have a zài affiliation with Japan, and Japan does not need to be ZERO

As responsible.

In this way・・・・・・ Japan can secretly transfuse blood to the Black Knights, and ZERO can rely on Japan to do what it wants

Desire.

Accept refugees, there's nothing to say about it. This may save days in the process of returning talents after the restoration of the country

Ben is very annoying.

Next, accepting the government-in-exile is not just to contain some lost dogs as ZERO's swordsmen,

It's okay to scold the empire, right?

I always feel that there is a lot to do, but I can't figure it out for a while.

Kano looked up for Shonezel.

"Know another name for 'government-in-exile'?" puppet government'. Since it is borrowed in another country, since

Then it depends on the eyes of the master. ZERO has the name of 'righteousness', but if you want to meddle with other numbers

area, this is not enough. You can't just shout about justice and freedom and go to war on someone else's territory. He also lacks 'legitimacy', he needs 'reason'. ”

"He's... needs someone to ask him for help in his repatriation."

"That's right." Schunezel smiled and nodded, continuing to guide. "Then if there are areas he wants to get into, but again

And no one asks him? ”

"In this way, then・・・・・・ he can create a 'government in exile' out of thin air. at all costs

He can get his 'legitimacy' and be famous. ”

Schunezel clapped his hands lightly, his eyes full of approval.

"What's hidden in Article 7 next?"

Continued residency and even naturalization of Britannian citizens.

This was the one that Kano didn't understand the most, and he even thought it was just a polite word for show

The other party's so-called concept of national harmony is just that.

Why stay?

The power of the empire no longer exists, who will protect them? Who gives them work? Who does it work for? Who will serve

They? Who will protect them? The barrier between the concession and the settlement has been broken, and those who remain will have to go

Faced with a district 11 that they didn't know anything about.

A country devastated by war.

A ruin.

What kind of Britannian will keep in Japan if the brain is short-circuited?

"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Kano finally gave up.

"It's normal, but I don't really understand it. Some news is blocked in the country, just on the last star

The Commissioner of the Tokyo Police Department announced that the former police department will continue to serve Japan. Although the government department did not express its position, but the root

It is reported that the same team is still operating. ”

"Are they persecuted?"

"If that's the case, there will always be some waves, there will always be some sounds. But so far there is no such side

According to the news, the new Japanese government is running very smoothly, or it is very experienced. Japan's political power has been broken

It's been eight years, and it would never have been possible without the help of the Britannians. Now the situation has not stabilized

, not too irritating Japan. It won't be long before the secret services try to hook up with those people, and we'll find out when the time comes

Whether they were coerced or not. ”

"In other words, this article is a pretense for detaining the talents of the empire?"

"Hmm."

Schunezel looked at this, his brow furrowed slightly.

"The least technical one. Compared to the subtle traps set by other terms, it is simple and crude,

Uncalculated, unaesthetically unaesthetically untouched, it's hard to imagine that this is his approach.

But I'm afraid it's the only way.

Running a country is not the same as starting a revolution, it is a needlework, and no one can do it on their own

I can't take care of a country's society, even if I can't.

He needs these talents.

Throughout the ages, the vast majority of revolutions in the world have struggled to complete the transition to power, and revolutionaries have struggled to adapt to this

kind of transformation. It's easy to kill, but it's hard to embroider.

Social security alone involves astronomical surveys, statistics, operational planning, promulgation, trial implementation, and revision

, try it out again, and so on. Wu Xing can't do this.

Eventually, after the enthusiasm of the revolution had passed, the people looked around their homeland and found that nothing had changed

It's still broken, and life is still hard. They realized that this qiē was just an illusion, and the only thing that changed was that

The oppressor on the throne has just changed someone. Soon, the high-spirited revolutionary would be condemned to him

The group of people who were put on the throne were overthrown and crushed into the dust of history.

HE KNEW THAT IF ELEVEN'S LIFE DIDN'T IMPROVE, HE WOULD SOON BE IN THE FOOTSTEPS.

He's going to fight a long game.

He's going to use his new rules to weaken the power of the empire step by step, and he's going to slowly manage his power in the world, and then

, one day, at the moment when the balance of power of all parties reaches a critical point, the flames of war are detonated.

It's a process of boiling a frog in warm water, and it takes time. ”

But in this way, isn't the other party invincible? This seemingly neutral but actually rogue country.

・・・・・”

No matter how miserable the loss is, no matter how painful the fall is, the Black Knights have a solid rear for them to heal

No matter how long it takes, you can make a comeback.

"If you look at it this way, your opponent has already lost half of it." Schunezel shook his finger. "Learn to appreciate your opponent, yes

Look at things from the enemy's point of view. Why are they making these decisions? Some of the seemingly subtle layouts are actual

It is the product of last resort after compromise. There are loopholes in any plan, and it's only been a month, and it's only been a month

The joy of masking all the unstable factors in Japan will gradually reveal themselves in a few months.

The next era is the era of grand strategy after the reshuffle. Every step, every humble move,

It is possible to become a failure, or a zào victory. Now it's the other side who takes the lead, and now they have a chance to make mistakes. endure

Heart, waiting, preemptive. The most important thing is to enjoy the process. ”

"・・・・・・ yes."

Kano is very glad to have such a master, the second prince is more like a teacher to him, and he can get from him every day

Learn a lot.

"Okay, what does the emperor say?" Honezel finally got down to business.

"The herald says your accountability will end at 12 p.m. tonight, when the lockdown will be lifted. Ad hoc hearings

The association has been disbanded, but it may take another half a year for the prime minister to be returned to you. "Kano had some difficulty

Said clearly.

"It's not my problem." Schunezel smiled and shook his head. "My two letters, one for the second princess

intercede and ask the emperor to return her military power. He was asked to consider a contingency strategy for the new Japan. How he responded

Target? ”

"I'm very sorry Your Highness, my subordinates still haven't been able to meet the emperor this time."

Kano said and got down on one knee.

He knew that the prince could not blame him, and he followed him all the year round, and he had never even seen the prince punish anyone's crimes.

But out of habit, and even more out of respect, he still made a gesture of pleading.

"The Emperor still hasn't returned to the palace, and seems to have met His Excellency Bismarck somewhere.

Is it playing missing again?

It's been getting more and more frequent lately, except for seeing him when I went back to China to ask for guilt a month ago, and the two of them have been connected these days

Not a word has been spoken.

If it is normal for a father not to communicate with his children, an emperor will not even see his own prime minister, and he will still be hairing

In the event of such a big event, the sky has fallen... As the king of a country...

The country・・・・・・

Schunezel closed his eyes and pressed his thumb to the center of his eyebrows, looking tired for the first time.

Lips lightly opened.

"Faint."

The voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the adjutant's ears.

Kano swallowed, his head hanging even lower.
