Chapter 120: Temptation (5)

After moving to the surface, the global human alliance has been corrupted at an astonishing rate, and in just two re-elections, the 18 seats representing the highest power have become the toys of political families and chaebols, who have formed alliances of interests, tied up votes on the islands through the power of leadership in their hands, monopolized the resources of the alliance, ignored public opinion, and became obsessed with money. In order to protect themselves, party groups centered on region, race, or even a certain person have been established, and these party groups are the predecessors of the Green Island forces.

Night shrouds Shangri-La.

Getting off the special car, Ling Tong looked back at the direction of the hope light, and the orange colored lights lit up the main building of the parliament, which looked like a burning fire.

This fire will burn through the entire human world. A smile appeared on the corner of Ling Tong's mouth, turned around to straighten his military uniform, and walked into the gate of An Muluo's mansion.

The dinner time was 18 o'clock, but he came half an hour early. If he had expected it to be true, his two "comrades" would certainly have been waiting for him there.

"Major General Ling, Colonel and Lieutenant Colonel Douglas are waiting for you in the study." As soon as he entered the gate, Amura's lieutenant immediately greeted him, and it was not bad, was it?

Led up to the third floor, the adjutant opened the door of the study, waited until Ling Tong entered, saluted, and the door closed.

This is a very elegant study, office area, rest area, reading area, decent, like its owner. Amulo stood at his desk, while Toren sat cross-legged on the couch drinking.

"Yo, the future commander-in-chief of the Alliance, you're here early enough." With his back to the door and not looking back, Toren drank the amber liquor from his hand in one gulp, and said in a strange manner.

"The alliance is far away, although I haven't informed you of the news, but the two of you will not be unaware of the progress of the lobbying." Ling Tong walked over to pour himself a glass of wine and casually tossed the bottle to Tolun.

"If you want me to say that you don't need to lobby at all, you are the commander-in-chief chosen by Boss Fanor, and he will pave the way for you." Toren poured himself full, and the smile on his face seemed to be laughing at Ling Tong's previous indiscretion.

"The preliminary work must be done, otherwise even if there is good news, with the efficiency of the alliance, it will not be possible to complete the pre-war preparations on the date set by Fanol." Ling Tong's eyes were fixed on An Muluo's left hand, which was pressed against the desk, and a piece of paper was pressed underneath, "I think the good news has arrived in your hands." ”

"A letter from your Excellency through Qingwei." An Muluo didn't sell Guan Zi either, picked up the paper and handed it to Ling Tong, "Prodi. Ethel will not intervene in the war, and the Lord wants you to send troops by September, and the Ark will join the battle according to the progress of the war. ”

"The Ark doesn't directly join the fight?" Ling Tong was stunned for a moment, looking at the words on the paper, his brows furrowed deeply, "Without the Ark, it would be impossible for those directors to agree to send troops." ”

"It's your business." Amulo's face was expressionless, "If you don't do it well, you can leave the decision-making power to Toren." ”

"Pick one or two directors and burn them to death." Tolun raised his head and looked at Ling Tong with a smile on his face, he was not a person who was willing to live under the people, after Ling Tong was defeated in Loulanhai, he didn't even take this third-order whose ambition was greater than his strength in his eyes, "Those politicians understand the truth of Shunchang's rebellion best." ”

"Reckless." Ling Tong handed the paper back to An Muluo, "As you said, this is my business. Now that the table is over, let's go and greet the big guys. ”

……

Roy. For the first time, Speaker Myr saw the three powerhouses of Thor's hammer attend an event together, Ling Tong was in the center, and Toren and Amulo were separated, looking intimate.

Thor's hammer is not at odds at the top, this is not a secret in Shangri-La, since five years ago, these high-level abilities have been completely split after the veterans of the alliance have been squeezed out together, competing for the highest military power of the alliance, in terms of strength, Ling Tong may have the advantage, but the army is more identified with the combination of passionate Toren and meticulous Anmulo. But this time it was different, An Mu Luo held a dinner, but Ling Tong was the guest of honor, this was a posture of a complete subordinate, originally Speaker Maier thought that An Mu Luo fell to Ling Tong, but judging from the current situation, it was the three capable people who reached an agreement to some extent. Recalling Ling Tong's activity in the previous 2 months, Speaker Meier faintly realized, could it be that Ling Tong's motion had received the full support of the army?

"Thank you very much for coming, Speaker Mayer." Ling Tong greeted him warmly, Roy Maier was the Speaker of the Global Human Alliance, nominally the leader of all mankind, although that status was meaningless now.

"Major General Ling, I must say that meeting you at Colonel Amulo's dinner party is the most unexpected thing I have ever had these days." Roy. Maier smiled and shook hands with Ling Tong.

"Thor's hammer is united, this dinner is just a statement by the warriors to you." Ling Tong is quiet, politicians are good at high-sounding nonsense, Ling Tong has experienced too much in the past 2 months, he must take the initiative in the conversation.

"You've got a problem for me." Speaker Mel shook his head with a wry smile, "I admit that you are a famous powerhouse in this world, and the warriors of Thor's hammer can also fight well, but your goal is Greenwich, and 20 years ago, we gathered the strength of all mankind and only fought a tie with those barbaric earthlings. Speaker Meyer pondered the words, "Twenty years have passed, Greenwich is stronger than ever, and we ......"

"No, no, no, my Lord, you're wrong." Ling Tong smiled and patted Speaker Mayer's hand, "Greenwich is at its weakest period, and we...... With all due respect, the alliance was lost by war, and it can only be rebuilt by war. ”

"Greenwich...... Weak? Speaker Maier was puzzled, but Ling Tong didn't mean to answer, he pretended to smile mysteriously and strode through the door.

"Speaker, the guests have arrived, let's start the banquet first, the more the wine is deeper, the more fragrant it is, the good news, it's the same."

……

The banquet was very successful, and there was no shortage of wine and wealth, but the minds of the speaker and the directors were not at all at the banquet, they had heard Ling Tong's proposal, and their staff had also reviewed Ling Tong's plan, but the results were not optimistic.

But the keen sense of smell honed in the political arena for many years made them feel that today's Ling Tong was different from before, he was more confident, so confident that people felt that something had changed the feasibility of this bill and changed dramatically.

It was nearly midnight, the banquet dispersed, and the guests were full of wine and food, leaving only the big men with their own hearts to sit in Anmulo's study, a cup of tea, and the smoke curling.

Ling Tong was the only one of the eight people standing, and he looked around at everyone, and a sense of mission that stood at the turning point of history spontaneously arose.

An Muluo is the best subordinate, this sentence seems to be said by Fanor, who has worked together for many years, Ling Tong only really understands the meaning of this sentence today. Needless to say, Speaker Mayer said that the remaining four councillors were also leaders of their own small circles, and it seems that he only invited 5 of the 20 votes, but in fact, as long as these 5 people agree, it represents the attribution of at least 12 votes, which is enough to ensure the passage of a bill, and it is far more efficient than a family visit like he used to have.

"I am sure that you all know the intention of entrusting Colonel Amura to invite you today." Ling Tong clapped his hands, and sure enough, An Muluo had already prepared his proposals and handed them over to those present one by one, "Everyone, are you satisfied with the current situation of the alliance?" ”

Is this a problem? Speaker Meyer and the other four councillors looked at each other and couldn't hide a wry smile.

"To put it bluntly, after the Remnants War, the Global Human Alliance has been abandoned by the global human race, and you have been abandoned by the global human race." Ling Tong said lightly, but the content was like a knife, "Now there is an opportunity in front of you, a war, as long as we defeat Greenwich and recover the victory that should have belonged to us 20 years ago, glory, dignity, and trust, everything will come back to us!" ”

"Nicely said, why should we defeat Greenwich, it's up to you? Or with an armed force of less than 100,000 men with Thor's hammer? "It was Director Denor, a representative of the traditional military forces, whose family members were all over the Allied Army, and his cousin was the only general of Thor's Hammer five years ago, and was excluded from the army by Ling Tong, if there was anyone here who was the least likely to support this bill, it was him.

"We have 3 capable people, 100,000 well-trained soldiers, and the support of the Ark." Ling Tong threw out the first bomb of the night, Fanor's telegram had already agreed to his willingness to open the Ark's fighting, although it was not certain that Fanor's time to send troops was enough, but it was enough for Ling Tong to pull up a big enough tiger skin, "When the Ark publicly announced its obedience to the Alliance's command, even if the war did not happen, the Alliance would have a huge gain in international prestige. ”

"But Greenwich has its origins, and Prodi. Ethel! "The second retort is that Director Petty, the representative of the chaebol forces, the businessman is far more afraid of the special operations of the capable than others, imagine Prodi bypassing the battlefield and infiltrating the Green Island under the jurisdiction of the Alliance, destroying three or five at will, this loss is enough for him and his allies to completely die.

"Prodi. Ethel will not intervene in this war. Ling Tong slashed the last slash, "Because of Her Majesty's untimely verdict, Origin has defected from Greenwich, and our intelligence agents have just made some small gains, and Prodi will also leave that Queen's Majesty." ”

"How is that possible!" Speaker Meier's hand shook, and the teacup fell.

"Nothing is impossible, anyone can be bought, and Prodi is also human." Ling Tong shrugged, "If you are still not at ease, I can write a confession in advance and give it to you for safekeeping, and if Ethel participated in the war, you can use that confession to put all the blame on me." He smiled freely, "If you lose, you will lose me, but if you win, the alliance will return to the top." ”

"Alone with you?" Speaker Meier stared at Ling Tong with burning eyes, "This responsibility, do you think a military commander can carry it?" ”

"My Lord, if the war is won, you will truly become the co-master of mankind, and as the one who has the greatest benefit, are you not willing to take even this little risk?" Ling Tong sat down and looked at Speaker Maier with a mocking expression.

The Speaker's face was cloudy, and after a long time, he sat down and asked the last sentence weakly: "Can you guarantee that Ethel will not participate in the war?" ”

"I will be the commander of this war, do you think you are more afraid of the invincible lord to enter the war, or me?"

Listening to the buzzing discussion in his ears, Speaker Maier knew that there was no way to change the decision, and the bait thrown by Ling Tong was too sweet, whether he wanted to keep his current position or gain more power, he had to support this proposal.

"There's going to be a council meeting in five days, and this bill will be there." After speaking, Speaker Mel got up and left, Ling Tong did not send it, he knew that from now on, he no longer had to worry about these incompetent politicians.

The world is no longer the same.
