Chapter 215: Politics Has No Private Life
Meanness is the pass of the despicable, nobility is the epitaph of the noble, there is never room for pure and noble thoughts to survive in political activities, and it is impossible for good people to survive in the competition of cannibalism. The ancients in China said: Since ancient times, heroes have no good class, and if you taste this carefully, the truth has been explained very thoroughly.
There are rules in the game, just as many people know that there are countless people who have suffered from the great convulsions of that decade, whether true or false, but how many people know that in the Cooking Lighthouse country during the era of McCarthyism, a three-year-old girl took a window advertisement, and her mother had to sign a pledge of loyalty for her daughter? Your democracy? What about your freedom? What about your human rights? Why is it that when the crow falls on the pig, the bald eagle can emerge with an inexplicable sense of moral superiority, criticize others in a matter-of-fact manner, and never mention its own ugly affairs? This reason couldn't be simpler, the discourse power of the International News Group is in the hands of Western conglomerates, and the evaluation of one's own mistakes is all due to the fact that there is no real evidence, and criticizing others will inevitably add fuel and vinegar for fear that the world will not be chaotic.
Reading too much of this kind of material will inevitably make people have great doubts about the ugly dark side of human nature and whether there is a sense of justice in the world order.
Luo Zhengdao is a semi-professional who undoubtedly belongs to the unlucky child who has been ruined by the three views, knowing that it is beneficial for him to send someone to negotiate this time, and if he does not take the opportunity to hack the other party, he feels that the evil fire in his heart cannot be vented. Why do you hold Lao Tzu high in the sky when you need it, and you can step on the ground with one foot when you don't need it? Who do you think you are?
The royal clerk of the Yaling, Hatan Debor, is not famous, but his actual status is not low, similar to the role of the chief of staff of the Old World, with a low status but no small power.
The clerk's main job on a day-to-day basis was to balance human relations, and a little sarcasm was no different from a breeze in the face of the seasoned politicians, and the royal clerk smiled and replied as if he were nothing:
"Her Majesty the Queen has always been concerned about the well-being of the Lord's 6 intelligent races, and Her Majesty has expressed her dissatisfaction and grave concern for the persecution of mankind by the Second Goblin Empire, and out of noble compassion and mercy, Her Majesty the Queen and all her colleagues in the cabinet have unanimously decided that the Empire will provide the necessary financial assistance and weapons assistance to Her Excellency the Count and other people seeking freedom."
How high-sounding this passage is, the words are full of the great light and righteousness of the seven o'clock file, and the lingering universal values and the more admirable the taste of the soulmate of the compassionate soul, it is worthy of coming from the mouth of the professional fool!
Rhetoric aside, in fact, this passage is nothing more than a statement that the Yaling Empire believes that it is more cost-effective to sponsor the pirates behind the scenes to block the matter than to go to war shirtless, so they are willing to provide the pirates with a large amount of money and weapons to fight for themselves.
As soon as the cannon sounded, there were ten thousand taels of gold. No matter when and where, war is a money-throwing game that costs money like water, and the amount of wealth consumed is unimaginable, and small countries with slightly inferior national strength cannot afford to play all-out war. For example, Yaling's first-class battleship can shoot up to three tons of stone bullets with each broadside salvo, and the cost of stone pine powder consumed is calculated separately, and the army is a bottomless pit that can never be filled, no matter how many resources you smash down, it may not be able to summon it. In contrast, the use of military and financial aid against the enemy is a relatively cheap and effective means of intervention, which is not only easy to control the depth and scale of intervention, but also saves oneself from many troubles.
For the same reason, the Big Five of the Old World are happy to play proxy warfare mode, direct armed confrontation between great powers is extremely dangerous, and the Cuban Missile Crisis almost caused the Earth Lord to open a new copy of the Fallout Wasteland.
Although the two sides of the Cold War pulled the world back from the brink of nuclear war, people who have a little sense in hindsight will inevitably sweat when they think about that critical situation, which is too dangerous. Since it is generally not a good idea for the big hooligans to go into battle shirtless, the superiority of the proxy model is highlighted. Having tasted the sweetness, Bald Eagles have turned to the war in hot spots such as Iraq and Afghanistan and have turned to the use of private defense contractors such as Blackwater, which are commonly known as mercenary companies, and these private armed men go to the front line in place of American soldiers to spill their blood, kick open doors and shoot at resistants, or are hung on the streets to show the public, it is better to scare the hearts of domestic audiences by staging the scene of the Black Hawk falling.
There are many motives for Bald Eagle's extensive use of proxies, and one of the most important considerations is to save military spending.
After showing off his moral superiority, His Excellency the Royal Clerk added with a smile on his face:
"Pleasant cooperation, Lord Count. Her Majesty has entrusted me with conveying her greetings to you, and I beg you to consider the question of the heir in the near future. ”
"Heir?"
Even if Luo Zhengdao's brain has always turned fast, it took him a while to figure out the cause and effect, I'm afraid this is not an heir problem, it should be that the Yaling Empire feels that his potential is being transformed into strength, and the marriage matter that was not discussed in depth between the two sides at the beginning has been brought up again!
With a few thoughts spinning around in his head, Luo Zhengdao maintained a polite bright smile and said:
"Thank you for your concern, I can handle a little personal matter properly, goodbye!"
After sending Hatan de Boer away, touching the newly popping stubble on his chin, Luo Zhengdao suddenly remembered that he was not the young boy who had just traveled to the New World to take Sherwill Needham. This body is still in college in the old world at the age of 20, although the current students are allowed to get married, but not many people will really rush to get married, just the contradictions and differences caused by the purchase of a house have made too many couples Lao Yan fly apart, and the breakup after graduation has become a footnote to the love in college. The situation is very different in the New World, where the average life expectancy of humans is not as good as in the Old World, and the sooner you get married and have children, the better.
failed to inherit the memory of Will Needham, according to Luo Zhengdao's side understanding, the cheap father Old Count Früe had engaged his son, and the woman was the daughter of a marquis's family. In the war-torn era, no plan can be trusted, the rise of the Second Goblin Empire has disrupted all arrangements, and it is impossible for Luo Zhengdao to know where the fiancée who is like a stranger has gone, this is the troubled times!
"Descendants! Should the child born be Will Needham's, or should it be mine? ”
Such a topic rich in philosophical and ethical research value made Luo Zhengdao feel a pain and a little entangled, asking himself if he was not a literary young man, he quickly gave up thinking, you don't even know where the child is, and now start thinking about such philosophical questions, how can it be described as boring?
Slowly walked to the small courtyard to enjoy the afternoon time, ordered someone to prepare afternoon tea, Luo Zhengdao said to the half-elf beauty who came to rub the snack by example:
"Vina, what kind of wife do you think I should find?"
Hearing this, he suddenly coughed as if choking, and Vina Dubov looked at him with a flushed face, and said:
“…… Why did you suddenly talk about it? ”
"Yaling's idea of marriage seems to be a marriage, and the royal clerk who just left hinted at the idea of the Yaling Empire, I pretended to be stupid, and it was difficult to refuse when they officially proposed it."
Tilting her head to look at Luo Zhengdao, Vina Dubov said tentatively with a very complicated look
"Will, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao, who laughed, looked a little innocent with a face, and said:
"Well, marry a woman I can approve, and casually stuff in the delicate and elegant noble lady, no matter how beautiful such a woman is, I can't bear it!"
The edge of the sword sharpens itself! The oppressive reality of the old world and the bloody despair of the new world have given Luo Zhengdao a strong spirit that is enough to face a cruel test, but unfortunately this does not include how to properly handle family life.
According to the aesthetics of human beings, the appearance and temperament of Yaling women are all Miss World level stunning beauties, except that the eyes that can't see the pupils are more alternative, but compared with the colorful contact lenses, they are not so weird. On the whole, Yaling women are much stronger than human women, not to mention in terms of cultural cultivation.
In the history of the New World, Yaling, who belonged to the primeval elf branch, was a precocious and intelligent race, and to put it mildly, when Yaling began to build cities and chant poems in praise of love, the ancestors of mankind were still in the forest with their lower bodies around the leaves to pick fruits! From Yaling's point of view, the human race in the New World is so lackluster that it can hardly find anything to be desired. To use an inappropriate analogy, it is probably similar to the perception of the people of the old world countries about the scrawny hungry people of African tribes in the news, and the Yaling women who are willing to marry human beings are not rare, but they are also extremely rare exceptions.
Luo Zhengdao, who has a low eye, lacks the professional consciousness of thinking that he is a real politician, and he does not hesitate to sacrifice dignity and morality in order to consolidate power, and when he thinks that the beauty lying next to his pillow is actually an undercover agent in Cao Ying's heart in Han, he inevitably feels a chill hit, and immediately loses any interest, and he really can't live this day!
I can't say what it's like in my heart, the half-elf beauty didn't forget the role she played, and said with a smile:
"Ahh Will, you can rest assured, Queen Yaling will not find an ignorant noble lady to marry. ”
Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao looked at Vina Dubov's face, and suddenly said with a smile:
"Hehehehe, it's hard to say, it's not good to say!"
Immediately afterwards, Luo Zhengdao's words changed sharply and said:
"Vina, you don't look good, did you rest too late yesterday?"
"Hehe, it's a little thing, you don't have to worry about it."
Hearing the displeasure and resentment as he wished, Luo Zhengdao was a little happy, and the indifferent attitude may include many meanings, because he cares, so there will be dissatisfaction. At this time, he figured out the thoughts of the half-elf beauty and said:
"Uh, aren't you supposed to be ......"
"Don't think about it, it's not like that."
