It's the end of the year, and all kinds of pit dads are busy..... You know....

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff!"

.

Defeat can also be promoted, such a thing is unheard of even in the Chinese Federation. It's just that the person in front of him is a living example, everyone knows that he was defeated in Afghanistan, his boss was killed, and the troops suffered heavy losses, but he ran back intact.

Not only was he not punished in any way, but he was even promoted to the second staff of the General Staff Department, so Fang Xiulian defected to the eunuch to obtain his current status, such rumors are already known to everyone.

"From today onwards, the third battalion of the Imperial City Guards is under my direct command. From immediate onwards, the entire battalion was put on first-class alert. ”

"But..."

Without waiting for the lieutenant colonel to answer, Fang Xiulian brought an imperial seal in front of him.

"Lieutenant Colonel, this is a confidential mission, and from now on I won't allow you to ask why, just carry out every order I give seriously. It's a matter of national survival, and I want you to understand the situation you're facing. ”

"Yes...."

Although he felt very unwilling to obey Fang Xiulian's orders, in the face of the orders issued by the Son of Heaven, the Praetorian Guard officers could only obey.

"Whew.... Finally got a battalion of people. When he walked out of the garrison with the troops, Fang Xiulian took off his military hat and let out a long breath.

"Although the number of people is a little smaller, as long as you grasp the key point..."

And on the outskirts of the Imperial City.........

"Your Majesty the Son of Heaven, I will definitely rescue you."

Li Xingjie stood outside the gate with a gloomy face, and behind him were heavily armed soldiers of the Chinese Federation.

This church, which stands in the forbidden city, is the goal of his trip.

As funny as it sounds, erecting a church in the middle of this palace complex is a complete destruction of beauty. In fact, there was no church in the forbidden city, but in order to conform to the customs of Bunitania without losing its style, the eunuchs rebuilt a side hall near the main hall into a church style.

"Lord Xingke, the troops are already in place." Zhou Xianglin reported to Li Xingke.

"According to the plan, let Honggu's troops occupy the key departments in Luoyang first. Xiangrin, you are responsible for command and scheduling, and I am directly responsible for the Son of Heaven. ”

A coup d'état with a small number of troops to occupy the center of the country is not impossible from a military point of view. It's just that there are obviously many fewer successful examples than failed examples in history, so Zhou Xianglin's task is extremely important.

"Lord Xingke, please be sure to rescue His Majesty the Son of Heaven."

Although Zhou Xianglin is completely loyal to the Son of Heaven and the country, from another point of view, she is not considering her own interests. If they fail to seize the Son of Heaven, even if they defeat the eunuchs and control the whole of Luoyang, they will lose the ability to continue to control the entire country through righteousness.

"Of course."

Li Xingke slammed open the door.

The loud sound of the door opening immediately alarmed everyone in the church, and the priest who presided over the marriage looked blankly at the armed man at the door, because he had just asked "Who else has objections to this marriage?" This routine question.

"I question, the voice of the sky, the roar of the earth, the heart of man! What evidence is there to regard this marriage as the will of the Chinese Federation!? Li Xingke drew his sword and shouted.

"Are you crazy!? Star Carving! One of the obese eunuchs reprimanded angrily.

"Shut up, Zhao Hao! On behalf of all the people, I dispute this marriage! After speaking, Li Xingke rushed straight to the god platform.

"Take him down!"

The guards rushed towards Li Xingke, and the nobles retreated in panic, and the entire venue became chaotic for a while.

The live broadcast of this marriage of the century was suddenly interrupted, and the screen displayed the words "Allocation adjustment, please wait".

"Ahhh~Ahla~"

Kamiyu let out a faint laugh of unknown meaning.

The signal was cut off, and even he couldn't get the manually operated machinery that had stopped running back to work. Spy satellites can only be relied on thermal imaging to distinguish between human figures in buildings, let alone collect sounds.

[Sure enough, it is a pity that such an important moment cannot be on the scene!] 】

Thinking of this, Kamiyu shook her head boredly, and then turned to Layla.

"Layla, there's a task for you."

"Are you going to the Chinese Federation?" Kamiyu coveted the Chinese Federation, and Layla had known about it for a long time, and he couldn't just watch from the sidelines at this important moment.

"No, there is someone else in charge of the actions of the Chinese Federation." With that, Kamiyu pulled out a document from a drawer.

"I believe that I don't need to introduce the situation of the EU revolutionary government, you have to know about it yourself, right?"

"Yes."

Layla has always been concerned about the situation in Western Europe, which is where she grew up anyway.

The situation of the revolutionary government had deteriorated, and the rebellion between Britain and Turret was quickly quelled because of the lack of external support for the rebel side and the lack of professionalism of the army and command. But a regime ruled entirely by the military has since shown its limitations.

Planned economy? It's not something a soldier's mind thinks.

The centralization of resources and the implementation of a total rationing system only made ordinary soldiers complacent about the privileges they enjoyed, while senior military officers found that a casual deduction of resources was a great deal of wealth, and no one would hold them accountable. Cancer cells called decay have begun to spread, a process that is difficult to reverse. At least Esmeras, a general who rose to power by virtue of his connections, would have a hard time controlling.

"The Western European side is very uneasy for the alliance, but at this time the country's power is concentrated in Asia." Kamiyu explained.

In contrast to corruption, which is a popular element in other countries, what is really troubling is that the revolutionary government has invested the vast majority of its resources in the military industry. If a country makes such a move, I am afraid that no matter who makes it, it will be uneasy, right? In particular, its one-roots neighbor, the Confederacy of the Emerging Free Republics.

The so-called is born from the same root, so why not be too anxious to fry each other. But more often than not, it is precisely because they have the same root and the same origin that the struggle between them will be more intense.

"The alliance does not want the situation in Western Europe to continue to deteriorate, and at the same time, in order to eliminate the threat, two armies have been arranged to be deployed on the border."

"Only two armies?"

The revolutionary government's military strength, Leila, still has a deep understanding, in any case, the strength of the two armies is too small.

"The government in Western Europe today is not a piece of iron."

"So, what do you need me to do?" Layla reacted immediately, I'm afraid that there have already been traitors who have already made contact with the alliance, and there should be a lot of them, and their status will not be low.

"For decapitation operations deep behind enemy lines, the Alliance needs an experienced commander. You are an expert in this area, so I recommend you. Of course, this quest can be quite cruel to you, and you can decline. ”

"You should know my answer."

“......”

"This is just an offer, not a mandatory order, you can refuse, and it does not violate the agreement between us."

Kamiyu stared at Layla as she spoke, and it took a few moments before she finally spoke.

"I accept this task." There was no firm tone, no fluctuating emotions, the girl just replied flatly.

"Okay!" It can be seen that the girl wants a clear conclusion.

"Here's the information, and the evidence for your reporting." Kamiyu shoved the bag of documents in front of Layla.

"If you need any equipment, just let me know."

"Do you need to leave now?" Layla, who took the information, asked as she opened it to read.

"The sooner the better, but it's not so urgent.... All right. Noticing Layla's expression, Camillo also knew that he wouldn't listen to what he said now.

As Layla left, she walked in.

Raising his hand and twisting the placket of Kamiyu's clothes, he was still wearing the costume of the heavenly realm.

"Are you leaving?"

He asked.

"There has been significant progress on the Emperor's side and the Order, I think it will not be more than 3 months at the latest....."

。

"Come with me then?"

.................

Luoyang, Zhu Forbidden City.

"As expected...."Fang Xiulian, who had successfully ambushed a wave of coup troops, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just hold on a little longer, and it's over."

Before he could finish talking to himself, a fierce gunshot rang out, and the sound of bullets hitting the stones was in my ears.

"Can't you make it easy for me to complete the task?" Fang Xiulian buried his head and complained.

As a brain, his performance on the battlefield is also a waste wood.

"Chief of Staff Fang Xiulian!?"

Suddenly, the gunfire was interrupted, and a woman's shout could be heard in the distance.

"Master Li Xingke has a high opinion of you and thinks that you are a person with lofty ideals! Why do you want to help the abuse!? ”

"It's really an honor, I didn't expect it to be the first assistant under Lord Li Xingke, Lord Zhou Xianglin." Fang Xiulian, who was not going to respond, thought that fighting with words was the best way to delay time, so he opened his mouth to reply.

"There is no need to be polite, the great eunuch betrayed the country for glory and sold His Majesty the Son of Heaven and the entire country to Bunitania! We are righteous people who are here to protect the Son of Heaven, and if you still have the slightest loyalty to the country and His Majesty, don't stop us. ”

The troops who broke into the imperial city were tasked with taking important hostages and supporting Li Xingke, and if this link was interrupted, Li Xingke would fall into the hands of the eunuchs instead, and all plans would be in vain. It's just that Fang Xiulian's sudden intervention annihilated the third commando team and caught Li Xingke off guard, so Zhou Xianglin, who didn't have time to hesitate, decided to take someone to rush into the imperial city in person.

"If it had been a day ago, I would have pretended to be unaware of your actions, even if I didn't approve of it." Fang Xiulian replied with self-deprecation.

"So, why did you change your mind? Or can't you resist the temptation of the eunuch!? ”

"Nope! At present, all regions of the Chinese Federation have serious tendencies, and the militarization of various military regions is increasingly revealed, and the reason why this huge empire has not been divided is because it is maintained by the authority of the eunuchs. If the coup d'état is successful, do you think Li Xingke has the strength to continue to maintain the unity of the country!? ”

"......." Zhou Xianglin fell silent.

It's not that they don't see this, no one has the strength to replace the eunuch at present, and Li Xingke is naturally not qualified. The division of the country is inevitable, but they all believe that as long as they are led by Li Xingke, they will definitely help the Son of Heaven to establish a new Chinese Federation.

"The EU has already been divided, and the Bunitania expedition is time-consuming and laborious, so you naturally have time to rebuild a country. But just yesterday, everything was different again! ”

That nascent EU.... The Alliance of Free Republics urgently needs to expand its power against Bunitania, and they naturally cannot let go of the split of the Chinese Federation. The most important thing is that the country is right next to the Chinese Federation.

"Then you can continue to watch people suffer and starve? Then you can continue to watch the eunuchs betray the country for glory!? How can such a strong country protect its people? ”

"But at least he's still a full empire!" Fang Xiu even shouted these words and then fell silent.

Unlike his military talents, he was a very conservative man in political terms. As long as the Chinese Federation is still a country with a vast territory and a large population, it can at least bluff the newborn calf of the Free Republic Alliance.

"What a sad result. Without the courage to break the status quo, how can we strive for the future? ”

The abrupt answer stunned both sides of the confrontation.

One by one, Knightmare broke through the palace wall and rushed in the direction of Fang Xiulian's Praetorian Guard.

"Why are the Afghan troops here!?"

Both sides who saw the logo of this unit were stunned.
