Chapter 158: Mistaken by Cleverness

For Dita Cullois, there is nothing that makes him happier than this.

It's been five yearsβ€”it's been five years since the whole Crossbell went from trembling and worrying at the beginning, to being numb and indifferent, and turning a blind eye. Ever since the two guided train cannons were built, it has been a sword of Damocles hovering over the head of the entire Crossbell, as if it could fall at any moment, dealing a heavy blow to the fantasy city. It is precisely because of the oppression of the entire imperial army represented by it that it has led to further plundering and oppression of Crossbell in the empire - both politically and economically.

These things have been seen a lot by Dita, who used to be the CEO of "IBC". As a native of Crossbell, as a man who loves his homeland deeply, how can he be indifferent to such a move in the face of the Empire? Not to mention that he himself is a very rare person who still maintains the enthusiasm and sincerity of ordinary people in a high position, so it is not surprising that he has such an expression of emotion. If it weren't for the fact that he was still in a meeting, he would have wanted to find a private airship and broadcast the news over the entire city.

Speaker McDowell next to Dita also inevitably showed a happy expression, but as a qualified politician, he did not have such exaggerated emotional expressions as Dita. How could he not be happy that the pressure from the Garelian Fortress, which he had felt several times when he was mayor, might have eased and that the deadliest part of it might no longer exist?

Compared to the two hosts on Cross Bell's side, there was almost an overflowing ecstasy, and the rest of the participants had different expressions. Rocksmith whispered something to the lieutenants around him - the destruction of the train cannon means that maybe the republic can go further on the issue of the autonomous state, which is also one of Rocksmith's pursuits. As for the same Archduke Albert and Princess Colotia, they were at a loss - the train cannon was destroyed? What the hell is going on?

On the Empire's side, Prime Minister Osborne kept a straight face and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something. Olibat, on the other hand, was much more relaxed, he was originally one of the opponents of the train cannon. At this moment, I don't know whether it was some schadenfreude, or simply for the sake of the empire's face in this meeting, he lightly touched the prime minister who seemed to be still in a "daze": "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, say something." ”

"......" everyone turned their eyes to Osborne. As the person who ordered the development of the train cannon, as the initiator and planner of the entire plan, his attitude was naturally the focus of everyone.

"I would like to express my sincere apologies for the threat and shock caused to you by this incident." Osborne spoke, regardless of what he really thought in his heart, at least on the surface he spoke in a calm tone, "If Mayor Dita's information is not wrong...... The loss of the train cannon would be a great loss to our national defense forces, but none of this can be compared with the safety of His Highness Oliebat's life and your safety. The disposition of the Garelian fortress was somewhat surprising, but it was not inappropriate - the broken wrist of a strong man and the destruction of train guns in order to avoid a terrorist attack can only be accurately described by this word. Erebonia's tradition is to advocate peace, whether it is with the surrounding countries or with the cultural differences and customs of the country, but in order to protect this stability, we do not hesitate to use force - this time the uncompromising and resolute rejection of terrorist organizations is a manifestation of our determination. ”

"The Empire's peace-loving determination, I have indeed received." Princess Colotia said solemnly, whether she was ironic or not, it is unknown.

"The determination to be shown at the cost of a military invasion and self-destruction of train artillery is admirable." Rock Smith is really mocking here.

"Although your country does not have heavy weapons such as train guns, it is said that gangsters and ethnic radicals are also rampant in your country...... If you're not careful, maybe the same thing will happen, right? "Quarreling with Locksmith, Osborne naturally will not show mercy.

"That's because our country is all about true freedom β€” inclusiveness."

"Inclusive? How can those extremist ethnic elements explain it just now? ”

"Integration is always accompanied by the obstruction of the stubborn old forces, and the pains in the process - why, is this truth, the Prime Minister, who is vigorously promoting reform in the country, still need me to tell you?"

"......" Oliebat rolled his eyes, these two men were actually talking back and forth from beginning to end. He gave Princess Kolotia a look, and the latter understood: "You two, can you communicate privately later on the issues of the republic and the imperial system and people's livelihood?" ”

"Of course." Osborne bowed slightly, and borrowed the slope to get off the donkey.

"So, let's move on to the previous proposal." A hint of cunning flashed in Rocksmith's eyes, "Regarding the abolition of the Crossbell garrison, and the proposal for garrisons at Tangulam Gate and Belgad Gateβ€”I think we can already see from what happened just now that Crossbell is very difficult to solve even an emergency of this magnitude on his own. ”

"That's right. Not only did the terrorists swagger close to the venue, but they also escaped - thanks to the arrangements of His Royal Highness the Prince and His Excellency the President, they were apprehended. Osborne quietly threw the credit to Olibat, "Isn't that a very convincing example for the proposal just now?" ”

"But the guerrilla associations and the police department have also been formally commissioned." Speaker McDowell argues with reason.

"This commission is also His Royal Highness's search for the Wind Sword Saint and the most elite department, isn't it?" Osborne smiled slightly, "Does this also mean that His Royal Highness the Prince's diplomatic methods that bypassed the right track and directly found someone he thought were trustworthy, which is actually a kind of distrust of Crossbell's official garrison?" ”

"This ...... I didn't mean that. Olibat was stunned, he didn't expect that this could also be used by Osborne.

"Your lives were really threatened...... In any case, that proposal should also be seriously considered. Locksmith nodded.

"You ......," Speaker McDowell shivered with anger.

"Is it for this......" "What a sinister ......," said Archduke Albert and Princess Colotia, but due to their respective positions, they could not do much more than express their dissatisfaction verbally.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... Although the opinions of His Excellency the Prime Minister and His Excellency the President are worth considering. "For some reason, the most calm person now is the flamboyant and outgoing Mayor Dita. I saw him faintly interrupt everyone's quarrel, and said unhurriedly in everyone's surprised eyes: "But before that, please allow me to publish the proposal that was interrupted before." ”

"Dita?" Speaker McDowell looked at his promising successor, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.
