895 War is a continuation of politics and the face of Richie

Li Qi's voice was like the wind calling for his hometown, affectionate and sincere, making everyone quiet and waiting for the next article.

After holding it for a long time, Li Qi repeated: "Comrades, you can't fight......"

Some people coughed and some people squirted tea, and Aurora pretended to drop her pen and touched the ground sideways, and said in a private chat: "Forgot the words? ”

Catherine also sent a private chat: "Don't, sad, night, shell." ”

It's still Catherine who is considerate, and Richie's heart is warm, but your sister will be even more sad if this kind of thing is avoided.

It's not that he forgot his words, he didn't do his homework at all.

The information revealed by Medi combines the anomalies of Tudor the Great, the plans of the Night Lady and the changes of Kem, and the core is Dawn and the unknown power that Dawn holds.

This is a situation of struggle beyond the level of mortals and even gods, the highest level of the Finn world. For the Fei Gong, it is too early to intervene at this level, and this matter is indeed not suitable for ordinary people.

Looking at the war between Romross and the Dawning Empire only at the mortal level, Li Qi also had some ideas, but it was very fragmentary and had not been systematically organized, so he was stuck.

With his brain spinning, Richie decided to defend and counterattack.

His tone changed: "Why do you think you can score Valentine now?"

Stan has always been in charge of civil affairs, is very sensitive to political trends, and confidently said: "Because of the serious instability within the ruling class of the Dawning Empire, it is not far from collapse." ”

Everyone echoed one after another, the round hook explained on the spot, and various video materials were projected on the table.

Stan's opinion is not unreasonable, the Propaganda Department of the Dawning Empire tried its best to block the news, preaching that Theresia's unity of man and god has not changed, but the mortal Theresia has not yet appeared. The general subjects of the empire were panicked about this, and the higher-ups knew the truth more or less because of the divine power sense, and they had their own thoughts.

The Dawning Empire did show signs of instability, first of all, the Prime Minister was placed under house arrest, and the Prime Minister's daughter, Theresia's cousin Ariel returned to Hadron to continue to be the regent princess, but she became the Saint of Order. Judging from the intelligence, Ariel's temperament has changed drastically, and she must have been manipulated by the goddess of order, which made the Theresia lineage from Hadron both the imperial military and political two terms both uneasy and dissatisfied.

The second is that magicians have been vigorously suppressed, and the empire has used unprecedented efforts to rectify the joint communication network on the grounds of leaking information, and has so far taken over hundreds of magic towers, arrested thousands of magicians and accused them of collaborating with the enemy.

The magicians had a strong reaction to this, and many magicians in the Red Union had received secret summons asking about defection, and Artur even received greetings from his mentor for the first time, and the eternal twenty-five-year-old female legend revealed in a roundabout way that she wanted to renew her relationship with Richie.

Even more obvious is the movement in the Viceroyalty of Norton, where the magicians have begun to form a secret society, and they have established an underground organization called the "Santarin Society". At present, there is only an alliance of suspects who communicate with each other and protect each other, and it is very likely that in the future, following the revolutionary spirit of the people of Tonton, they will once again stand up and raise the flag.

"The relationship between the Empire and the Temple of Commerce is also strained......"

Through the underground trade channels, Ni has gained another level of understanding of the internal movements of the Dawning Empire.

"The Imperial Propaganda Department has obtained the right to supervise the trade wind network, and is also vigorously searching for people who publish 'harmful information' through the trade wind network. Some of the priests of the goddess of commerce have also been arrested, which has led to growing voices in the temple of commerce against the Dawning Empire. ”

"There is news that yesterday the Holy Maiden Ginny of the Temple of Commerce went to Valentine to ask to see the Empress, of course she couldn't see it, Ginny was very angry, and announced that the loan cooperation between the Temple of Commerce and the Dawning Empire was temporarily suspended, and it was not continued until the mortal Theresia appeared as the Empress of the Empire, and the reconfirmation continued. ”

Nicole said this, and the Circle Hook projected another set of materials, which were images of Silver Dragon Mirror Stone and Silver Bell being arrested at the Redstone Military Base and Valentine, respectively.

Round Hook said: "In order to cover up the defeat in the Battle of the Weeping Sand Sea, the Dawning Empire not only put the blame on the magician who leaked the whereabouts of the main fleet, but also found a scapegoat. The silver dragon has been branded as a traitor to our Red Federation, and it is said that the goddess of order has agreed to the request of the god of the red dragon to hand over the entire silver dragon clan to the red dragon to dispose of, and the silver dragon will definitely rebel!"

The atmosphere in the conference room was suddenly much more cheerful, and judging from these signs, the Dawning Empire was indeed showing signs of collapse.

The goddess of order lost the mortal Theresia, and thus lost the political means to continue to integrate the various forces of the mortals. He offended the mortal Theresia lineage, the Magician, the Temple of Commerce, and the Silver Dragon, all of which were the foundation of the Dawning Empire.

Stan's epilogue is generous and passionate: "The Goddess of Order also established the Holy See of Order, which is a reappearance of the Loyal Divine See, which has left countless people who followed the mortal Theresia in battle against the Loyal Divine See, extremely disappointed, and even angry. ”

"The old nobles lost a lot of power under the religious revolution of the mortal Theresia, but they were still able to live and grow in the empire. Now that the Goddess of Order has restored her theocracy, their situation is even more difficult. ”

"The old nobles who had rebelled against Theresia for establishing an empire and centralizing power now raised the banner of the mortal Theresia, declaring that the fruits of Theresia's revolution had been usurped by the goddess of order, and that they wanted to reclaim the fruits of mortal victory. ”

The Inquisition established by the God of Law under the Holy See made these nobles a priority for purge, and the Holy Warriors of Order began to clash with the old nobles. ”

"The Goddess of Order has offended the foundations of the Dawning Empire, and the Empire will not be at peace for a day if she does not let the mortal Theresia appear. But we all know that the mortal Theresia is no longer there, and he can't take out the real mortal Theresia. ”

"As long as we join forces with Romulus and enter the Dawning Empire, any of these forces will cooperate with us, and the edifice of the empire will collapse!"

Stan's speech was met with warm applause, and even Catherine cast an expectant glance at Rich.

It's not that the Witch of Destruction doesn't understand, but she still has a personal vendetta with the Goddess of Order.

"If the archcardinal releases the image of Operation Exoca, it should further undermine the prestige of the Goddess of Order, and unite the magicians, the Temple of Commerce, the nobles, and the forces loyal to the mortal Theresia against him. ”

Li Qi pondered for a long time, and only after sorting out his thoughts did he speak.

"I think there's something wrong with your understanding......"

"We are not fighting against the Dawning Empire, but against the traditional order in which the gods rule over mortals. Yes, the current situation is a mixture of the mortal revolution and the god revolution, and the Dawning Empire is only a secondary issue. It is not the central focus of the whole situation of struggle, and it does not carry all the contradictions and conflicts. ”

"In the eyes of the Goddess of Order, the Dawning Empire is just an intensive new type of faith paddy that can be thrown away if needed. The collapse and disintegration of the Dawning Empire was not a big failure for him. Now he wants to maintain the unity of the people and gods of Theresia, just to gather the power of faith more quickly and efficiently to repair his throne. ”

"With a goal like this alone, the Goddess of Order has a lot of leverage to work with. I don't see any strong core and a stand to fight to the end against those forces against Him. ”

"The power of the old aristocracy is not worth mentioning......"

"Magician...... After the loss of the homeland of the Storm Isles, the unity of the mages as a special race has been lost. The newly created Mage Federation was only mixed with a little sand by the Empire before becoming a fraternity. The Magic Patent Council became a vassal of the Imperial Ministry of Magic, as magicians had to rely on the administrative and legal powers of the Empire to keep the business of magic patents afloat. ”

"Magicians are inherently weak, as evidenced by their hiding in the Storm Islands in the First Age, and now their main body has basically degenerated into a petty bourgeoisie, and it is impossible to fight resolutely against the Dawning Empire and the Goddess of Order, at least I have not seen the power to make them persevere to the end. ”

"It's also important to note that from the United Communications Network, the Mirage, the Flying Boat, to the Floating Ship, some magicians have transformed into magical industrial capitalists. When it comes to maintaining the Dawning Empire, their interests are aligned with those of the Goddess of Order. ”

Then Richie spoke of the Temple of Commerce......

"The Goddess of Commerce does have her own big plans, and in terms of beliefs and interests, there is a fundamental conflict between him and the Goddess of Order, but at this stage, they must fight a decisive battle?"

"I don't think so, the tide of history driven by the mortal Theresia is not over yet, and they are each taking what they need from this trend. Compared with the goddess of order, the goddess of business should be more patient. Moreover, the goddess of commerce also lacks strong allies, that is, it represents goodness and justice, and is more advanced than the feudal order. Without such faith, business beliefs can never be independent and can only be attached to the power order. ”

"And like the magicians, when did the Temple of Commerce stand up against whom?, and the first thing they thought of when they had a problem was how many gold bushels they could get, or how much gold bushel they could make to settle the trouble. That commercial saint Ginny, don't look at her posture as if she is very tough, but she is just taking advantage of the fire to rob. ”

In the end, Li Qi concluded: "In the whole struggle, we must not only look at the overall situation, but also look at it from the perspective of development. ”

"You only see what the Goddess of Order is losing after the loss of mortal Theresia. But have you ever thought about what the goddess of order will gain without the mortal Theresia?"

"When the mortal Theresia was here, there were many things that she was unwilling to do because of her position and various scruples. If he is the goddess of order, what scruples will he have?"

"You only see that other forces are opposing the Goddess of Order, and you do not see that the Holy See of Order is gathering the power of mortal faith. Although such a power is prioritized for mending the Divine Throne, the Goddess of Order can also be used to destroy hostile forces when needed. ”

"Don't forget that the Goddess of Order is the pure divinity of Theresia, who possesses all of Theresia's memories and wisdom. He knew how to avoid repeating the mistakes of the Loyal Court, and if he was playing with the Holy Maiden, and if he was working with the Divine Emblem of Order that could communicate directly with him, it meant that he would inherit the achievements of the mortal Theresia and avoid his own will being distorted. ”

"The reason why we are reluctant to release the images of Operation Rexiang is because, while those images will make the forces that oppose Him more against Him, the forces that support Him will also support Him more. We will only help Him proclaim that He is a powerful deity who is pure, no longer weak, undistorted by the Church, and represents the camp of the good order of the world of Fein. ”

These words made people look awe-inspiring, and even people were wiping their sweat.

Aurora's eyes fluttered again, and she sent him a kissing emoji on the private chat channel.

But his mouth was sour: "Yes, this is also the credit of our cardinal." ”

This made everyone look different, although they didn't understand that Aurora was actually talking about the spirit world, but the relationship between Li Qi and Theresia was enough to explain everything.

Li Qi rubbed his forehead, Aurora, you are really elegant in this fine scene.

The "political faction" was persuaded by Li Qi's far-sighted and unscrupulous exposition, but this does not mean that the "military faction" has died down.

Gambit states the current dynamics of the war and the comparison of military power......

On paper, the Dawning Empire is already an empty shelf.

The main floating fleet is finished, and now there are only three armies that can take the table.

One is Donn's Imperial Southern Army Group, although it can't even defeat the Second Front Army of the Red Alliance, it can still be of maximum use against Romroth. Unfortunately, this army cannot be withdrawn on a large scale, and Donn must also sit in Hadron to ensure that at least someone in the Dawning Empire is responsible for monitoring the Red Federation in this direction.

The other is the Western Frontier Army Group under the command of Rhemak, which is incomparable to the Red Alliance Legion, but in the eyes of Konstantin, the former head of the Advisory Group for Aiding Luo, this army is still better than the Holy Will Empire.

The third is the Northern Army Group that is carrying out the mission of "Eradicating Heresy" in Bled, and this force is also an old acquaintance of the Red Alliance, which is the Northern Alliance that Li Qi defeated on the plains outside the Lion King City.

"Don't have much to say over there......"

Wilson analyzed the three armies one by one: "Many of the officers and soldiers under the command of Rimacko are veterans who followed the mortal Theresia very early, and the death of the mortal Theresia hit them hard, and now the morale is very low. As soon as the Dawning Empire began to make a replacement, it was held back by Romros's attack. ”

"Not to mention the northern army group, those northerners were taught a hard lesson by us in the Lion King City, even if they worked hard, but their efforts to catch up with the modern war were doomed to failure, because the pattern of war has changed again. ”

"The biggest problem with the Dawning Empire's army is the loss of the floating fleet, they can no longer rule the skies. On the Romross side, there is not only the production line of propeller fighters that we assisted, but also the improvement of dragons and flying monsters, they have absolute superiority in the air!"

Konstantin, who had returned from the advisory group and was currently in charge of the staff under the Red Union Army Committee, was well aware of the situation on Romrose's side and spoke of an important development.

"Romrose sent Kettins instead of Callaghan to take charge of the attack in the direction of Koster, and this guy could see what Romrose was planning. Kettins is a very steady general, which shows that Romrose's main direction of attack is not Koster. ”

"My guess is that Romross will attack from the direction of Bled, led by the brave Earl Callaghan. He also realized that it would be difficult to fight against Rimako, so he chose the weakest northern army group to attack. ”

"We all know that the Bled are in the throes of being brutally ravaged by the Empire, and Romeros can gain the support of the locals with the gesture of a liberator. And we've already helped Brad out of this route when he picked up his immigrants. ”

"Once Romeros has established himself in Bled, he can go straight east to Valentine or north to take Darmante, St Canos and Shivinhall. ”

"Although these three countries were liberated by the Dawning Empire from the orc invasion, Sylvie's methods at that time were very cruel, making them sacrifice too many people, and their resentment was so great that they might be able to gain the allegiance of these three countries just by waving their flags. ”

"I think that even if Romrose's attack doesn't have the desired effect, the Dawning Empire will have to use all its strength to deal with it, and this is our great opportunity. ”

The opinions of these three military bigwigs have brought the situation back again, and everyone thinks that the opportunity is so good, how can they be worthy of their conscience if they don't take advantage of the fire to rob? How can they explain themselves to the people of the Red Union?

"The cardinal has nothing to say, and it's hard to say", Kane Art said to Kane in a gloomy voice: "The situation is so clear, and there is a reason why he still insists on not doing it." ”

Kane wanted to speak in agreement, but when he heard this, he closed his mouth and asked Art, "Do you know?"

Art sent an expression of hugging his arms in his vision: "Of course I don't know ......"

Kane was about to reprimand him, but Art said, "But I know that compared to the big picture of Finn's world, the Dawning Empire is indeed only a small level. War is a continuation of politics, and this basic understanding must be present at any time. ”

"Let's just say that our efforts in the Hell Plane involve a level beyond the Dawning Empire. And...... I've been thinking, my master...... Ahem, Lord of Lies, why hasn't he shown up yet? Maybe he has already appeared, but he is only acting in a familiar face and identity, so what is His purpose, and where is He standing?"

As soon as he talked about the Lord of Lies, Kane felt that the seemingly clear situation of the Dawning Empire at the moment was indeed just a wave in the tide.

At this time, Li Qi also spoke: "I don't go deep into the military level, maybe I don't have enough qualifications to judge." But I think that the most important task for Romerus now should be to clear the surrounding stones that prevent him from unifying West Fein, rather than thinking that the Dawning Empire has an opportunity to take advantage of it and take a step to fight for the dominance of the whole of Finn, which will be a mess. ”

"yes, I think he's a little dizzy......"

"War is a continuation of politics, and the outcome of a war is determined more by factors outside the battlefield. ”

"We can't just look at the comparison on paper, in the Dark Ages, many countries used to think that the victory or defeat of a war was only a matter of looking at the comparison on paper, or even just looking at the comparison of military forces on paper. ”

As a result, they did have a brilliant early victory. But they were quickly held back by other factors. ”

"On the contrary, some of them reunited enemy countries that were on the verge of division, and then exerted their powerful productive forces, piling up armies far more powerful than they were at war. ”

"Others, after the enemy country abandoned the altars and jars and retreated in a big way, took advantage of the power of the cold winter storm to plunge their troops into the ice and snow swamps, and as a result, they lost their vital strength and reversed the offensive and defensive momentum. ”

"The changes in the enemy countries are different, but the changes in these countries themselves are the same, that is, if they are indecisive, and in the case of serious losses, they also have internal divisions, which seriously weaken their strength, and this again forms a vicious circle, and defeat is inevitable. ”

Seeing that although everyone was listening carefully, some people still showed puzzled expressions of "whether this is alarmist", Li Qi said: "I'm not saying that Romross is doomed to failure, but I think this kind of speculation and blind action is too risky." ”

There was silence in the conference room for a while, and Finn, the commander of the Second Front, couldn't help but speak: "There should be no problem in liberating Hadrang, right? ”

Tarence was finally on Richie's side at this time: "Ten million people...... We're just starting to absorb the three or four million people in Kxter, and that's going to affect our growth. ”

"Our founding philosophy is to allow everyone to realize their ideals, and although this is just an idea, the actual situation cannot be worse than now. ”

Li Qi hurriedly struck while the iron was hot...... No, stamped: "Yes, it's already August, and the half-year plan we had previously determined has come to naught." Combining the half-year plan with the one-year plan for 1229 is still possible. ”

"When the goal of the one-year plan is achieved, we can only take a small step in exerting productivity, and we are still too far from the goal. At a time when the initial stage of cosmopolitanism has not yet achieved initial success, we should not go to conquer cities. ”

Hearing this Nicole mutter, "Then what is considered a preliminary success?"

Speaking of this, Li Qi has a lot in mind: "First of all, the Planning and Development Commission on your side can come up with a clear concept, that is, what principles should be followed by the market, commerce and even the economy under Datongism, and what it will look like roughly. ”

"The second is that our supernatural power education should be comprehensively spread out and stable, so that we can combine the academic education of mortals with the cultivation of supernatural power, so as to achieve the goal that mortals can obtain extraordinary power when they become adults. ”

"In terms of people's livelihood assurance and science and technology, we should also ensure that we have a crushing advantage over other forces that surpasses one or even two eras. ”

"Of course, the most important thing is to make our crimson belief system more perfect, and our understanding and mastery of supernatural powers are more in touch with the essence of the world. ”

These points were listed, and everyone lamented.

Indeed, construction is the most important thing, and these goals make everyone's hearts burn. But I saw a big lump of fat right in front of me...... No, in front of the mouth, but not being able to open the mouth, is really uncomfortable.

Tarence agreed: "Think about it, if we make a move, even just take Hadlang. Not only does it mean that we have to fight to the death against the working people who have been bewitched by the goddess of order, but we also have to play the role of a reactionary in the rule and fight against the faith of order in Hadlang. ”

"If we can't bring a better life and a better faith to these working people, then we are doing them a disservice. 10 million people...... Our foundations have to retreat to the line of magic bread and shacks, and we can't control how much darkness and evil we have to breed. ”

"The bad signs that have appeared in Gamma City are proof that we can only set up transitional zones in the first place, to separate the working people from those city people. ”

Everyone was actually convinced, but Catherine was not convinced.

"What, signs, specifics?"

She understood Li Qi's words as ten or eight years, or even half a lifetime, before she could take revenge.

"Logo ......"

Richie sighed, "I'll be specific, Nicole, what percentage of our productivity is the production of magic oil right now?"

Nicole opened her mouth and came: "Counting all links in the entire production chain, the population spent on the production of magic oil is nineteen percent, and the resources are sixteen percent, especially the magic crystal, the mineral deposits of the Divine Fall Plateau and Kist are no longer enough, and they must be imported." ”

"The power station in the hell plane cannot supply energy to the main plane, and the main plane has to rely on magic power to improve the people's living standards. The more safeguards and power applications there are, the more magic oil will be consumed. ”

In addition, the development of military, transportation and production technology has also caused the consumption of magic oil to increase rapidly. Male sharks consume six times more magic oil than sardines, let alone floatboats like horned whales. ”

Seeing Nicole projecting a large stack of tables to make a report, Li Qi hurriedly waved his hand: "Okay, just have a rough one." ”

He smiled wryly and spread his hands to everyone: "See? If the stall is spread out, we will not be able to carry it just by producing energy." ”

"What is the fundamental problem? We have not dug enough in the development of the productive forces, and we can only rely on the old era in terms of energy. Magic oil is just a breakthrough in the way we use energy, not a revolutionary breakthrough. ”

And this requires us to have a deeper understanding of the truth of the world, of the nature of supernatural powers, and we need to touch a deeper layer, which takes time. ”

Li Qi said heavily: "I think that when Leia is three or four years old, we will have a major breakthrough in this area." ”

The words were too heavy, and the room fell silent again.

"Okay, let's vote ......"

Feeling that the time was right, Li Qi proposed.

At this time, a projection of a certain witch appeared in an empty place on the wall, it was Vicky, she was supposed to come to the meeting, but she was busy and didn't bother her.

"Aha——!"

Vicky let out a maniacal laugh and shouted, "Richie, everyone! I have discovered another layer of truth in the world! I have unearthed the deeper essence of supernatural power!"

The laughter echoed in the conference room, like a heat wave rolling and a cold wind howling, making everyone suddenly in a state of confusion.

Li Qi's heart is also a double heaven of ice and fire......

It's great that Vicky has a breakthrough!

This girl is deliberately slapping her face, she really wants to pull it over and beat her to death on the spot!
