After a few days of discussion on the Japanese Internet, the atmosphere of the New Year has disappeared to the point of Danying, ※ For the people of the Fijian League, the New Year has no festive atmosphere. Despite the customary New Year's message, the heads of government of the Filipino League swore that the government and the army would do everything to win the war. However, the grim situation in the major theaters has not changed in any way because of the president's red and swollen chest. More and more names on the bulletin boards of the dead, more and more unemployed people statistically, less and less food, and more and more ridiculously expensive necessities of life, make this New Year, even more bleak than usual. The starry sky has lost the splendor of the peaceful era. War, this monster fed by human blood, is raging across the entire interstellar map of humanity. From the Filipino League and the West about a dozen. After the major member states declared war on each other, nearly 100 countries declared war on each other in just two years.

Countless steel giants have broken into space jumps with their armor and cannons, and overwhelming warplanes have rushed into the planet's atmosphere. Beautiful planets have become devastated and bustling cities have been reduced to ruins. People in war zones watched their homes fall into ruins and their loved ones die under overwhelming shelling. The pain is numb to the extreme, and in the face of the camera lens, their eyes are empty, and there is not even despair. People who are not in the war zone are watching all this in front of the television, silent, a heart, so heavy that it seems that it cannot beat. They don't know when their homeland will fall, and they don't know if the picture they see now will be a scene in their lives in the future.

The dark clouds of war are so black and oppressively approaching. No one cares about the New Year. January 1 is the beginning of a new year. In times of peace, this day is a reason for all to rejoice. And now, this day that should have been full of laughter has been saddened by the fall of cities one by one because of the death notices. In the face of the aggressive Western Covenant, in the face of the invaders who invaded their homeland, the people of the Filipino League need only one thing. Victory! A real victory! This victory is not the kind of victory in a small battle in a certain place announced by the news host with a forced smile, still less is it the so-called "victory" in which the "main force" of a certain group army of less than 1,000 people defeated a certain platoon and a certain company of the enemy and smoothly advanced at a time when the troops were losing and retreating. A victory that made their suppressed mood soar and raise their eyebrows and cheer loudly! That's their holiday! The desire for victory is too urgent for the people of the Filipino League today. How hateful and angry I am for those mongrels who started the war in West. The desire for victory is as strong as it gets!

They prayed every day, that their warriors would become stronger, that their troops would counterattack the lands of the great empires of the Western Covenant, destroy the enemy's cities, occupy the enemy's palaces, and inflict a hundredfold and a thousand times the pain on the enemy. This wish, like an undercurrent, swells in the crowd. The governments of all Filipino countries can clearly feel the tremendous power of this undercurrent. They knew that in the hearts of those people who were starving, suppressing their grief, and desperately working overtime to build mecha warships, there was a volcano that was about to be launched. If the situation worsens, this volcano will erupt sooner or later. At that time, the anger of the people, far more terrible than the fiery magma, can destroy everything. The one who can best prove this power is this mysterious Li Buddha. Now he is a hero in the eyes of the people, the first successor of the military god Hastings, and the idol in the hearts of all hot-blooded young people. And all this came from the victory of the Catalan galaxy. Although a long time has passed, the impact of that victory has been so great that its shockwaves have not subsided until now.

In the current combat sequence of the Feiyang Army, all the troops under the command of Li Fu have priority in supply, and they are all absolute super-level main forces. Their officers are given priority in training and promotion. Soldiers are better treated, and troops are equipped with more advanced mechs and have stronger support. Any restriction on these forces, any opposition to Liverfer, would be fiercely attacked by public opinion and parliamentarians. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as giving and taking. There are even many people who hope that Li Fer can replace the inactive Hastings and become the de facto leader of the Filipino Allied forces, leading the Filipino Allied forces to launch a frenzied counterattack. A victory can make Li Fo rise to such a height, and the power of the people can be imagined. Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, and the higher the prestige of Li Fo. For the heads of military and political affairs. The more stressful it is. In the face of such a dire situation, in the face of the rolling undercurrents among the people, they dream of a victory to calm the emotions of the people. Lift your spirits. However, victory is not something that can be said to be there after all.

This is known to the high-level who have the intelligence, and the ordinary people below also know it. At present, the countries of the Fijian Alliance are still paying off their debts that were poorly prepared before the war. Their army was not as good as that of the Western Covenant. The equipment of the troops, the number of ships, is also not comparable to that of the Western Covenant. If it weren't for the iron triangle of the Filipino League, such as the Republic of Fiyan, the Republic of Lane and the Republic of Chakna, I am afraid that the democratic countries attached to the Fijian League would have fallen apart long ago. And these three countries are the three most critical theaters of war in this war. The war between the Finjan and Binarte empires was one of the most important of these. The ownership of the Carlston Galaxy directly determines the outcome of this war.

At present, the Filan Army has lost most of the strategic points of the Carlston Galaxy, and the main fleet has retreated near the border. Not to mention a big victory, it would be thankful to be able to last for a few months and not let the aggressive Binalt Empire burn the flames of war to their homeland. Secondly, there is the Lane Republic Theater of Operations. Contrary to the disappointing situation of the Carlston Galaxy, this war zone is the hope of all the people of the Filipino League. Worshippers believed that one day, Levo would lead his army to capture the Naga Federation and attack the Binarte Empire from the other direction. Hastings' Phayan army could not hold the Culston Galaxy, so he relied on him to turn the tide. Finally, it is the southwestern star field where the Republic of Chakna and the major empires of the West are strangled. ，

The Ten Thousand Wars broke out from this star field and quickly spread to the entire interstellar territory of mankind. In order to get the central passage of Leray, Rio spared no effort. From the very beginning of the Gachalin Empire, to the later Desik Empire, the Jeppen Empire and the small Lelei Federation of Susti, they were able to defeat Gachalin with the strength of one country, beat Desik in disgrace, and severely damaged the two countries of Seuss and Jepon, which was beyond the expectations of most people. It's a pity that the central passage of Leray was finally opened by the West. With the change in the position of the Salgar Federation and the entry of the Binalt Imperial fleet into the southwestern war through the central passage of Lere, the situation in the Republic of Chakna is really not optimistic.

Now, the Western Army, under the command of Jeppen's famous general Yuto Mikami, is storming the Resque system. Once the Resque system is lost, the portals of Chakner's major systems will be completely open. Xiyo, which has gained a firm foothold in the southwest star field, can quickly sweep the entire Chakner, and at the same time turn the entire southeast star field into their back garden, it will also form a front and back attack on the Republic of Feiyang and the Republic of Lane with the Carlston Star River. Therefore, in a strategic sense, the southeast star field at this stage is more important than Carlston and the Lane theater. During this period of time, the battle situation in the Southeast Star Domain has been turbulent, and the two warring sides have come up with strange tricks, and the competition is unprecedentedly fierce. As a result, all the countries of the Filipino League, from the president to the ordinary people, have paid strong attention to this war zone.

Chakner, who has just changed his war strategy and is fully engaged, with his current military strength, can he resist the full attack of several major empires? What does Hastings want to do when he is in Chuckner? Will his wisdom suddenly shine at some point and give a great surprise to all those who still have expectations and trust in him? And what kind of army was the bandit army that arrived in Chakna, and why did they shine in Canglang Star with ten mecha gods of war on the one hand, but on the other hand, they fought against their allies in Hanjing, causing a miasma? All these are the topics that the people of the Filipino League countries talk about on the streets and alleys every day. Some are worried, some are full of expectations, and still others are gloating and watching from the sidelines. "I ask the Council to immediately put pressure on the Supreme Command of the Coalition Forces to remove Hastings from his position as the First Commander of the Coalition Forces!" In the huge oval conference hall, a parliamentarian from the Republic of Fiyan made an impassioned speech, pointing the finger at Hastings.

"Since the outbreak of the war, the physical condition of Field Marshal Hastings, as well as the current grim situation of the coalition forces, have shown that he is no longer fit to assume the post of military commander of the coalition forces. If we continue to take measures, the Western Army will directly attack the mainland of the Fiyan Republic! I think you should understand what this means for the whole of Fiji. The councillor's final note dragged on for a long time, and he sat down after looking around the room. There was silence in the conference hall. Democratic parliamentarians from all over the world looked at each other, and suddenly there was a commotion. The whispering sound is like a spaceship that starts a reaction engine, and it is like a swarm of alarmed bees, gradually amplified. Some lawmakers watched with surprise on their faces. They found that there was a strange atmosphere in this conference hall. Shooting directly at Hastings was something that had never been done in the Coalition for nearly three decades. In a sense, Hastings is the nemesis of the United Parliament.

Over the past 30 years, the Union Parliament has changed from one term to another, but no one has ever dared to challenge him head-on. It is his presence that has prevented the United Parliament from fully controlling the military system of the Filipino League. And at the beginning of the war, Hastings's strength. and the mistakes made by the joint parliament itself, which made the members present shut their mouths and did not dare to express any opinion on the military budgets and troop build-up of the countries that they could influence. In this war era, it is a cruel thing for these parliamentarians to not be able to control the army, and then lose the power to influence the army. In the two years since the war began, the United Parliament of the Filipino Alliance has become more of a symbolic organization. Issues such as trade quotas, currency issuance, and environmental protection are simply a game for a group of idle children in the midst of a raging war. The tide against Hastings has been brewing for a long time. Over time, these parliamentarians have naturally forgotten how they were opposed to war readiness in the first place.

At that time, they rightly and sternly opposed the arms procurement budget proposed by the Filipino alliance countries, opposed the expansion of troops, opposed the coalition forces to accelerate the process of military integration, and all measures to prepare for war, and attacked them as a waste of money and labor. They sat in their seats and voted against them with a lot of laughter until the West's invasion. This serious mistake made them taste the bitter fruit and lose their rights. That's temporary, though. For these legislators, who consciously represent the will of the people, putting everything under democratic supervision is the most basic principle of a democratic country, and it is also the magic weapon on which they rely for survival. Among them, not many of them have a sufficiently sophisticated military vision, and not many of them can understand the current battle situation, but this does not affect them in their own field. They don't go to the front line to direct operations, they have enough self-knowledge. Going to the front, or commanding an army, will only cost them precious lives or ruin their reputations. That's what military generals do, and the only thing they need is power. It's for those disobedient generals to fight for the military resources of the alliance,

The right to be careful to pay for the smile on your face! And to get that right, you have to kick Hastings. Although he had always planned to do so, no one dared to challenge the old man in a wheelchair head-on. Until now! The councillors carefully observed their companions beside them, some of them were angry, but only a very small number of them. Many more sat in their seats with blank faces. Their expressionless expressions are like a letter without words, but they actually express a lot of meaning. The Congressman who spoke was one of the spokesmen of Liverford and a large interest group. Apparently, it was a premeditated operation. Some lawmakers remembered the words of a political magnate at a banquet earlier. , Wang Fabibei "Fiji League is an unsinkable giant ship".

The big guy pestled the abduction, and the face full of age spots carried a hint of mockery and contempt, "It doesn't matter who is at the helm." Immediately, he made a very vivid analogy: "Have you ever seen a python?" No matter how big a python is, it can't swallow an elephant. Even if you have to swallow it, it will take a long time. I don't think I can see West Row swallowing us anymore. The words of the big guys, who are afraid that they don't live so long, drew a burst of laughter from the personable parliamentarians with wine glasses in their hands. "We can't dismantle our democracy just because of a war." The big guy waved his hand. "This is the foundation of Fiji Alliance and a principle that each and every one of us must uphold. Even if I believe in the character of Lord Hastings, the nobility of a man is not a reason for us to put democracy in such a dangerous position as a military in control. The big man sat down on the sofa with the help of a councilor, and his beautiful lady, who was forty years younger than him, affectionately brought him a glass of water.

"It's old, the doctor has already issued a ban on alcohol." The big guy sighed and said: "All of them are the elites of the Feimeng, and this world has always been dominated by a small number of elites. We represent the will of the people and the most fundamental democratic system of the Filipino League, and we should not abandon our responsibilities in peacetime or wartime. He looked around with a somewhat smug expression: "Your Excellency Hastings is in poor health, the situation continues to deteriorate, and the opinions of the people are very strong. Now Fiji. Change is needed. A strong military leadership appears to be needed to lead this war. "Being able to fight a war is not the most important quality of a military leader," the big man said meaningfully, "The most important thing is that he has a democratic heart and can represent the will of the majority of the people!" These words are perhaps the most straightforward words ever uttered from the mouth of a politician in recent times. Everyone can understand the meaning of this big man who has retired, but can still influence many people. This is too straightforward to understand. Isn't this the public opinion of the majority of the people what these consortia, these arms dealers, and these parliamentarians behind Li Fo mean!

These people represent the will of the people! At that time, someone else pinched a cold sweat for this big guy. But now, everyone understands. Poor dagger, that's just a trumpet! Hastings' inaction has made people want to move, and the rise of Lever has accelerated this process. And when the twelfth-generation mecha jointly developed by the Fiji Alliance fell into the hands of a militia, and several major arms dealers were disgraced at the mecha test meeting, the two sides were already in a life-and-death situation! However, as Hastings's most hardcore supporter, will the current President of Fiyan, Francis, succumb to the joint parliament?

You know, this is wartime! The power of the president is far beyond peacetime! Even though the approval rating of Feiyang's most recent presidential candidate has skyrocketed, Feiyang's presidential election. It's still a year later. Francis's prestige and his control over the political arena of Fiyan over the years are not something that the candidate can shake! Francis, Hastings, these two people, like two mountains, are unattainable. Although most of the MPs present wanted Hastings to step aside and cast a vote for the interest group they represented, the joint parliament, after all, still has a lower house composed of representatives of the major member states.

In the middle of the bunch. But many were loyal supporters of Francis and Hastings. Without the certainty of victory, it is not wise to anger the president of the alliance leader and the god of war, Hastings. Some of the MPs looked at each other and suddenly felt a chill. Boom, the door to the round conference room was pushed open, and a member of the entourage of the Republic of Bega hurried up to his boss, bowed his head and whispered a few words. Immediately afterward, footsteps followed, and one after another entourage of parliamentarians from different countries rushed into the conference hall. Such a situation is rare in the meetings of the upper house of the United Parliament of the Filipino League. Except for urgent matters of great importance, these strictly trained retinues will never break in. With the whispers of one entourage after another in the ears of the councilors, an invisible shock wave suddenly spread. Councillor Feiyan, who had spoken, sat quietly in his seat. From the faces of those lawmakers who had already learned the news, what he saw was extremely shocked.

Many parliamentarians even stood up in a gaffe. Councillor Feiyan bowed his head. Hands clenched together. Although his retinue has not yet come in. However, he roughly guessed what was going on. Only he knew about the plan that Barbara had personally developed and led the execution. It should have been that appalling plan that succeeded, and the time was a little earlier, but it was also normal. This kind of shady thing will never be as precise as a clock. The important thing is, that person will do it! He leaned back in his chair quietly, his heart beating wildly involuntarily. The back was already soaked with a layer of sweat. He waited, for some informed lawmakers to be the first to pass his proposal. Knowing that news, parliamentarians should understand that no one can stand in the way of this group.

No one! However, for a long time, no one pressed the yes button. Just as the congressman noticed that something was wrong, his belated entourage finally burst into the conference room sweating profusely and ran to his side. , Wanbi "Your Excellency" entourage panted and said: "I just received the news that the Chackner military announced. The bandit fleet annihilated the Djepon dragoon fleet. Kill the famous general Obuun. "What?!" The councillor was shocked and jerked to his feet. At this critical moment, he understood better than anyone else what this news from the Southeast Star Domain meant to everything they had worked so hard to scrape! Isn't the bandit army the militia that Hastings supports?!

How could they possibly defeat Obuun?! One can imagine what kind of reaction the people will make when this news spreads throughout the Filipino League! The fall of a generation of famous generals, the one-eyed python Obuun, is far more crazy than the annihilation of several fleets in the West. Not only the people, but also the soldiers of various countries! Their hatred for Obuun has reached the point where they can worship the man who killed Obuun! Moreover, the third increase of the Allies in the Resque system is imminent, and the forward fleet may have entered the Reske. If the coalition gets another big victory, the entire Filipino League. will be boiling for it! At that time, Hastings was sitting in the southeast star field. And the name of the bandit army that came out of nowhere, will shine in the Feimeng! The councillor stood there in despair. Beside him, there are faces with complex expressions. There was a dead silence in the entire oval conference hall. Faintly, they seemed to have heard the cheers that swept over the city.
