Chapter 669: No Whistleblowers
There are actually many people in the empire who know the organization of Scarlet Dawn, and more than twenty years have not been able to wash away the time when people were immersed in hell and looked up to the light, and in the last period of time when the afterglow of the empire was about to fall, there were many familiar characters active.
There were robbers who specialized in plundering the rich and giving to the poor, who plundered the nobles' precious gold and silver vessels, melted them down and gave them to the poor.
There were kidnappers who kidnapped nobles and wealthy merchants, snatching untold amounts of wealth from nobles and wealthy merchants and giving them to the poor who had no money to see a doctor or survive.
There is also a well-known female roadfighter who always shows her red body after robbing passing nobles, telling them that they have been robbed by a weak woman in order to humiliate them.
But of all the rumors, none is the Scarlet Dawn, which at that time was more likely to be called "Crimson Dawn". A philosopher once said that when the crimson flame that dominates the sky ignites the first rays of light in the sky, the night will be a thing of the past, and the dawn will be ahead. Later, it is said that the philosopher was accused by the nobles of having an affair with the bloody dawn and was hanged in a city square, which many people may still remember because the guy was still smiling when he died.
The audience, who were originally numb, seemed to wake up from a dream suddenly at that moment, they did not mourn, there was no pain, they sang loudly while shedding tears, singing the song of freedom. Because they suddenly understood a truth, it was not a victory for the nobles, because the nobles were afraid.
Since then, the Empire has made it mandatory to wear hoods for hanging, and these damned death row inmates are not allowed to reveal anything before they die. Perhaps this story tells us that when a person with a "D" in his name is decided, it is not only necessary to put a hood on him, but also to gag him.
The reason why the Dawn of Blood is firmly remembered is because in the entire history of the empire, they were the only ones who dared to kill nobles on a large scale. Every nobleman who has been blackcarded, whether he is a newly promoted baron or a duke who has been passed down for more than ten generations or more, will not be spared because of the difference in status, power, or wealth.
There are no survivors, this is the source of the nobles' fear of the bloody dawn, and they will never let any of the nobles they regard as their target continue to live in this world.
When Durin said these words, many of the people in the room jumped for a moment. Many people know that Memnon has a relationship with the Blood Tide, but not many people know that Memnon has a relationship with the Scarlet Dawn, and that is a secret, a secret that is almost equivalent to the open at the top of the Imperial Tower. As soon as they thought of this, many people's originally firm attitudes immediately shook violently, and the intensity of this news was too exaggerated, making them a little confused.
Although the empire has entered a new era under the leadership of Magus and the New Party, this new era is filled with a large number of old aristocrats, both in Mags and in the upper echelons of the New Party. And in the north, where the aristocratic power is most well preserved, it seems that it and the south are completely two worlds, and there are nobles everywhere as before the advent of the new era.
These people have a grudge against Memnon, because the history of the nobility itself is an inexplicable hodgepodge, perhaps a baron's sister married another duke, and the duke's children are married to members of the royal family, and almost all of the royal family except for the definite heir are married or married to the children of the nobles. In the great fusion of blood from generation to generation, perhaps all the nobles are actually distant relatives of each other, which is no joke.
So why did he let Memnon make such a big achievement in the west, knowing that he was the man of the bloody dawn?
The people here are all businessmen, and they are obviously exposed to things that are a little more advanced than those of ordinary people, whatever they are, including conspiracies. In an instant, a thought stretched out in their minds, whether the old and new parties of the empire were doing this in order to make Memnon a bait and fish out the people of the bloody dawn behind him. So will they be suspected of being the ones of the Scarlet Dawn if they have formed a cooperative relationship with Memnon?
The seemingly amiable leader of Maggs stood on the steps level with the throne with a cold face, let the emperor read out the constitutional reform, and also read out the establishment of the cabinet, and finally handed over all the power in his hands! That is a politician who eats people and does not spit out bones...... No, politicians. In this world, there may not be such an idiom as settling accounts after autumn, but there are similar sentences full of wisdom - the day of the harvest in autumn is the best day to settle accounts.
Once the Memnon is liquidated, their inputs may all be cut off, and they will suffer unparalleled losses, and they will enter a dark life path from now on.
Carlos swallowed, "Are you sure what you say is true?"
Durin spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, "Why should I lie? And Memnon has just made the worst decision of his life, he has expressed his yearning for a new life and a new era to the Empire, completely severing ties with the past. The importance of a lure is that it attracts the angler to those precious fish, but when the lure says it will never attract fish again, that's when the angler changes the bait. ”
"He has lost his value, and if he can't obey the will of the executive cabinet in a short time, he will only have one end!", Durin raised a finger and looked around at everyone present, his eyes lingered on them one by one, and finally said in a very affirmative tone: "That is to be liquidated!"
This sentence was like a hammer hitting everyone's chest, making them feel stuffy in their chests, their heart rate was out of order, and they were uncomfortably unspeakable.
Yes, once that happens, the whole west will immediately become a mess, even more chaotic than now, Memnon has penetrated his tentacles into all aspects of the west over the years, he is liquidated, and many of the current policies and laws in the west, including everyone's investment, will become a thing of the past. Everything they paid for would be slammed to the ground, broken into pieces that could no longer be put together, and this is no longer a word for risk, this is a thunderstorm!
The thought of Maggs's attitude towards the power of capital is enough for almost everyone to tremble.
"So, Mr. Doolin, is there any way you can salvage this troubling situation, and have you already figured out how to solve it?" said the speaker, the Sith, one of the largest construction machinery manufacturers in the Empire, who had already begun to get involved in the military industry, and was already showing signs of competition with the Bondika Military Industrial Group. And this is also thanks to the military-industrial complex led by Bondika, which completely eliminated the AT-1 weapon carrying platform.
Lagnos Construction Machinery Group was involved in the project of adding a civilian interface to the AT-1 weapon carrying platform, and also designed some engineering arms for this purpose. It can be said that their design is very successful and has taken a big step forward in their field. It was precisely because they participated in this project that they found that there was not much gap between the weapon carrying platform and their construction machinery, and even lagged behind the overall design of their civilian construction machinery in some technologies.
This gave the chairman of the group company and the largest shareholder, Mr. Ragnos, a huge inspiration, why don't they add more accessories to their construction machinery, which can only sell tens of thousands of yuan, as a military platform to sell hundreds of thousands of dollars?
Therefore, in the face of more shortages of various metals, Lagnath Construction Machinery Group has arranged a western agent to provide more resources for the group company as much as possible to reduce the additional costs incurred by imports.
So it makes sense to say that Mr. Sith would never have sat with Carlos without Doolin, they don't have any common language at all, and all business enemies are mortal enemies.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Durin's body, and Duhrin nodded his head lightly, "I ask questions, there will definitely be a solution, I'm not a mathematician, let alone a scientist, I always make some problems that people can't even understand and throw them out and ask everyone how to solve them, I'm not so stupid!"
"This is actually a very simple question, the problem itself is on Mr. Memnon, if Mr. Memnon loses his power because of something and is put in prison, or even ......", Durin said here and paused, everyone craned their necks to hear what else he had to say, he smiled faintly, "Even if Mr. Memnon accidentally had an accident and sacrificed his life for the country, then I believe that the cabinet will not launch a purge of the west." ”
"When a tree falls, all the birds fly into the sky, and the value of the tree is gone, whether it is good or bad, then no one cares about what the tree can do for the forest, what it can do for the animals. ”
"If Mr. Memnon is unable to continue his current work due to his own health, I will speak to Mr. Maggs to ensure stability in the west. ”
This sentence told everyone very much that it was almost time for Memnon to withdraw from the stage of the Empire, but the bloody words did not make anyone have a look on their faces that should not have appeared, and some people even nodded secretly, thinking that what Durin said was feasible. Memnon is dead, and those little bosses have no room to live, they are like a group of birds perched on the big tree of Memnon, they have all flown away, who will care about this dead tree, this forest?
Moreover, it is better for Memnon to die by accident, because he has too many hidden people in secret dealings with those here, and there are many truths that have not been extinguished since ancient times, and one of them is called "The dead do not tell the truth"!
