“…… There are naturally scum in any category of people. Of course, I know a lot about the kind of people you are talking about, and I have dealt with a lot of things related to them...... But this is not eradiradiable. Kane paused for a few seconds before he said slowly, "You can't ...... by using individual cases."

"This is not an isolated case, but an inevitable trend." Heliga shook his head, "You don't really think that aristocracy lasts, do you?" I can understand that those who are superficially flattering, but in fact are not without real talent, are better able to take advantage of you in a particular situation. However, you can't deny the increasing number of moths and wine bags and rice bags that have appeared under the aristocracy. Perhaps you yourself are wise and diligent enough to deal with such problems in Lamar State...... But this is not the case with all aristocrats. It is entirely possible that your counts and marquises, like the former dukes of Helmut, have made some unreasonable mistakesAccording to the traditional aristocratic thinking, responsibilities and obligations are quite equal, how many lives do you think he has to fulfill all this completely and thoroughly? ”

"......" Kane Gong didn't know what to say for a while. How could he have thought that Heliga would talk to him so seriously about these things? So I was completely out of idea for a while. I had to say dizzily: "That...... What do you think? ”

"What do I think? Actually, the answer is very simple. To put it bluntly, the so-called power trick is nothing more than a tightrope game, and the participants need to grasp the balance of all aspects and try their best to maintain it; At the same time, leave yourself a backhand and cushioning room. From this point of view, the class oppression structure of the empire under the aristocracy will seriously restrict the development of the country's potential, I think, even if you hate His Excellency Osborne to the root of your teeth, you have to admit that he has a group of capable people under him, and it is your subordinates, or the leaders of the other four famous families have to admit that they are very envious, right? ”

"This ...... That's true. "When he thought about his defeat to Prime Minister Osborne in the previous political struggle, although he gritted his teeth, he had to admit that organizations such as the Imperial Capital Military Commission, the Imperial Capital Political Department, the Railway Gendarmerie and the Intelligence Bureau, as well as some of the core members of them, were indeed very powerful. Aside from their positions, Kane might have praised them as well.

"So that's the obvious question. If you stick to the traditions of the Empire, it means that these people will never get a chance to turn the tables around. Although there have been a few cases in the history of the empire where people of civilian origin have become the top of the state, it is not a stable output after all. The aristocracy was formed because the overall production capacity was limited at that time, and the entire country had only individual resources, so it had to be cultivated intensively to ensure the operation of the overall efficiency...... However, with the advent of the guiding force revolution, the productive capacity of society as a whole has been improved, and in this case, it is naturally unrealistic to let excess resources be used to train a small number of people. If you insist on maintaining the old system, even if you defeat Prime Minister Osborne and win the civil war now, you will have the next reformist leader to represent those who see the big pie in society and want to get a piece of it. You may be confident that you will control the Empire while you are alive, but no one knows for sure what the future holds. ”

"......," Kane had to admit that Hailiga had a point. But the problem is that even if he understands these things, it doesn't mean that he will give up what he was supposed to do, but he seems to have figured it out, and even then, Heiliga does not support reformers who seem to be doing the right thing. He voiced this question, to which the latter only sighed: "As I said earlier, the aristocracy has brought a lot of decadence and backwardness to the empire, and the reformers are not ice-clear, jade-free existence. Prime Minister Osborne's expansionist policies had caused the empire's international image to plummet, and the image of the once honor-oriented, enthusiastic and peace-loving Erebonians had been trampled on; The Empire's former allies have turned their guns on the lookout for a possible invasion of the Empire in all its forms; Because of this, the empire has maintained a strong military force for a long time, which has led to a tight treasury, so that Prime Minister Osborne has to sacrifice one after another to fill the same policy, you say, how can a patient who has lost too much blood ensure that he does not die because of excessive blood loss? ”

"That's ...... Through an external blood transfusion. Kane replied without thinking.

"yes...... The problem, however, is that the Empire is scarred solely because the reformers themselves have always manipulated the empire's vast body to launch various forms of aggression against the surrounding countries and autonomous states that he sees as prey. Therefore, no one will mercifully give the Reich a blood transfusion to replenish the Reich's losses in active aggression. "Therefore, the only way for him to do so is to invade more countries and maintain this balance by sucking blood and flesh on these new prey." To put it bluntly, it is to feed the war with war. If it continues, I don't know what the result will be. ”

"But now he's dead. The Empire will no longer go on as he imagined. Kane said.

"Look, this is the narrow-mindedness of your aristocracy, and I say this, don't be upset. In fact, not many people in power of the aristocracy were able to understand this...... For it seems to you and them that the power of the aristocracy is inherent with the traditional institutions of the empire, but it is impossible for the new classes, who have gained a great deal of interest in the leading revolution, to accept such a situation. They were the real reason why Prime Minister Osborne was able to assemble a political force called the reformists. Large conglomerates like RF, and capital conglomerates like the Kleist Chamber of Commerce, will want to dominate the empire of the future, which is what they ultimately pursue. It is inevitable that the end goals are in conflict with each other and the core interests are in conflict with each other. Therefore, even if Prime Minister Osborne has been killed by your design, it still does not change the facts. ”

"So...... In your opinion, is it true that the aristocracy cannot be sustained? Duke Kane frowned. Before talking to Heliga, he had already gotten some information from someone he had dug up with his own hands. Since he succeeded in instigating the war and the control of the imperial capital was in his hands, he had the members of the Imperial Liberation Front rescued by the Railway Gendarmerie who were secretly imprisoned and interrogated by the Railway Gendarmerie. Of course, this is not because in order to thank them for their dedication to themselves, both parties know that they are just a short-term overlap of interests with each other, just simple business partners, not any friendship, just because Kane Gong still needs Chloe, the leader of the former organization, as the core thug under his command to fight in the east and west, so in order to prevent Chloe from being leisurely and paddled at will when he achieves his goal and gets revenge, he must find a way to curry favor with Chloe. Although Prime Minister Osborne hated it very much, under his auspices, the city of Julai, the hometown of Chloe, a small country forcibly conquered by Prime Minister Osborne by diplomatic and political means, after becoming a special economic zone directly under the imperial government, developed quite well, which made the Duke of Kane quite greedy. Therefore, while defeating his biggest opponent, Kane also intends to steal the fruits of his opponent by the way, and take the Julaith District into his own possession, so as to better control the situation of the empire.

Therefore, Julai's ownership is considered his core interest as a noble leader, and naturally cannot be relinquished. But at least sell a face to Chloe for a short time, and the lives of these terrorist leaders are enough. They and Chloe have also cultivated some revolutionary feelings, and using their relationship with Chloe, they can temporarily make Chloe work more actively for him for a while. At least according to his plan, there should be no problem in surviving until the middle and late stages of the civil war.

However, if this is just Kane's own idea, then later, one of the cadres succeeded in winning Kane's love by virtue of his outstanding political qualities, which was a surprise. After a few chance conversations, Kane had a very deep impression of the former terrorist leader named Kidion. The professor of political science, who had been dismissed for making unfavorable remarks against the reformers while teaching at the Imperial Capital Academy, was a good follow-up to his qualities as a political activist, and when he was placed by the aristocratic coalition in Ordis, the capital of Lamar state, the stronghold of the aristocratic coalition, he once made General Kane suspiciously implement several ideas and plans he put forward with a few words. Subsequently, Duke Kane obviously saw that some stubborn diseases in his territory had improved, so he suddenly had a lot of good feelings and trust in Kidion. Moreover, unlike a pure thug like Chloe, Kidion's political wisdom, if under his command and trustworthy, can play a very long-term role, and Crow's final value is only used to shape the hero of the civil war, and then gradually refine the existence when dividing the cake. The so-called cunning rabbit dies, lackeys cook, that's about the case, and Kidion, a political star who is loved by Duke Kane, has specially warned the other party that although the father of the young man is an aristocrat, he is quite accomplished in academics, and even with Heliga, his understanding of the modern political model is far beyond that of ordinary people, and even some nobles, so Duke Kane must be cautious about trying to fool him through political concepts, which is basically impossible. Kane was still skeptical of this, but now that he finally understood Kidion's words, he couldn't even find a way to refute him when talking about these issues.

Therefore, Kane decisively let go of his original arrogance and followed Kidion's opinion, according to Kidion's analysis, Helriga obviously did not agree with the aristocratic faction and did not agree with the ideas of the reformers, but he was not a completely idealistic person like Olibat, and he would be willing to cooperate with others for the sake of short-term interests, rather than stay away from them all. This means that he and Olibart are not complete follow-ups, in other words, even if they share the same purpose, in order to achieve that purpose, in the process, they will use paths that may not be the same. Olibart was definitely not going to form a brief alliance with either the aristocracy or the reformers, but Heliga would not necessarily reject such an offer if Kane publicly offered enough bargains.

So, what would be a strong attraction to someone like Heliga? Duke Kane had been prepared for this. He thinks that in this world, no man can resist the temptation of power and beauty, if there is, it must be that the power is not big enough, and the woman is not beautiful enough. Therefore, he was driven by this thought to make a decision that made Heliga secretly smile bitterly.

Of course, Helliga wasn't laughing at Kane's ideas. In fact, that is indeed the pursuit and purpose of many people, but that is only for ordinary people. For Heliga, why did he change his original insistence for the sake of what was not lacking around him? What's more, he is not a person who can be determined by common sense at all, and even Prime Minister Osborne, who is so eloquent, has not yet seen the position and meaning that Helliga can really represent, so he just chose to wait and see instead of snatching people from Oliebat's side, and Kane Gong has already misunderstood Kidion's advice to him.

When Kane finally expressed his thoughts euphemistically, Heliga first felt strange, and then snickered inwardly that he didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly. Of course, he didn't really intend to accept this kindness from Duke Kane; Lufas also seems to have a bad heart, and is not very loyal to Kane. He was indifferent to the backyard fire caused by his father's death, which shows that he naturally has greater interests, so what can be greater than the assets of the four famous families? Heliga didn't know, but he thought that Kane would definitely not be able to give it, and it must be Lufas's own little calculation. Then, if Kane Gong uses this set of things for himself, he won't easily believe it.

Of course, despite this, for the sake of the plan itself, Heiliga still made a refusal, and he pretended to think about it for a long time with some hesitation, and finally opened his mouth and said in the eyes of Duke Kane mixed with expectation and pride: "Since this is the case...... Your Excellency the Duke, let me observe for the time being how the Noble Alliance is? Within three days, I will give you an answer. ”
