Chapter 108: Hatchlings (7)

Perhaps it is due to the arrogant national character of the Breesian nation, or perhaps it is simply because of the smooth national fortunes since the reform of the national system that these power holders in Brees, in the face of any setbacks, began to become restless and excited. Hawkins www.biquge.info a solemn speech in parliament could not calm the boiling thoughts of many people. The excitement of the audience affected the Prime Minister's speech, and he began to become incoherent, and his incoherence led people to think that he had no confidence in his so-called ideas. The emotions of the people were aroused again, and people sighed afterwards what it was that made these gentlemanly people suddenly look like thugs. Hawkins, who looked down to see the whole thing in his costume that was not messed up at all, was hit the head, and when there was a bang, a sturdy-looking cane landed on the marble floor. With this unexpected attack, the audience issued a voice demanding that Hawkins take the initiative to resign. Hawkins' face began to grow embarrassed, and he forced himself to face it with a smile on his face. The chairman of the council owes a debt and shrugs his shoulders with his hands spread out to express his helplessness. Hawkins had no choice but to return to his place unhappily. The President stood up to make a statement in which he proposed to initiate a process of no confidence in the Cabinet of the current Government. Hawkins knows what that means, and if there is a vote of no confidence in the vote, Hawkins should be ready to move out of the Tenth. Looking at the present, the possibility of such a situation is very high. Hawkins beckoned the secretary, and the two made their way through the crowd and out of the council hall. Hawkins thought that no matter what the outcome, the power in his hands was still there, and of course the duty of service was still there, and he needed to do his job.

The carriage was just about to move when a calm voice came from outside the carriage, it was Father Wells. Hawkins beckoned the priest to get on the bus, and the secretary took the initiative to exit the car and go back alone. Only the priest and the prime minister were left in the car, and the two were silent for a while, and the priest beckoned the coachman and headed towards his residence. The two did not talk to each other after the car walked, but the priest took the prime minister to his house and the two began to talk. While asking the Prime Minister about the war, Wells told the Prime Minister many things that the Prime Minister did not know. The priest said that Bules, under the control of the secret group, gradually showed the ability to dominate the world from hundreds of years ago, and was not seriously challenged, in which God gave the secret group a lot of help. With the development of these seemingly normal technologies and military technologies, Britis has established its hegemony in the Western Hemisphere, and gradually expanded to the entire earth, controlling more and more overseas territories, and establishing a world empire centered on Bris. Saying this, Wells was also emotional, and his emotions were obviously very excited, as if this was a great achievement of the past. When Wells, who was talking as he walked, walked up to the painting, his eyes fixed on the island in the painting, and almost word by word he highlighted one sentence: God is gone, and he has failed the appointment with us, and he has never appeared again. I am the only priest in the group for thousands of years who has not seen God during his tenure. Hawkins noticed that the priest's body began to tremble, and he kept pounding his body, and his body began to change, and slowly his body grew so tall that it almost blocked the painting on the wall. Because he had his back to Hawkins, Hawkins guessed that he would probably have tears, and the Prime Minister could not interrupt the priest's excitement with a loud voice, so the room was filled with only the priest's excited expressions and sobs.

Without any defense, Hawkins suddenly turned around and changed his appearance, his elongated chin so thin that it was very uncomfortable. The priest slowly approached step by step, and Hawkins suddenly became alert to what the priest was going to do. The priest instead came to Hawkins, leaning on his tall body, and looked at the prime minister from head to toe several times. Hawkins didn't know what the priest was going to do, and with this silence, Hawkins didn't dare to move, he didn't even dare to retreat. The priest said that the Syndicate is now facing a great crisis, which is the inevitable result of God no longer being able to help us, but the Syndicate cannot sit idly by! Now that we have had tremendous power and financial power in our hands for a long time, we need to figure out what we can do to alleviate the crisis and maintain control of our world. We don't care what kind of powerful group is on the other side of Americ's territory. In short, the relative maintenance of the group's control is the most important. Hawkins couldn't say what he had to say about the priest's views, but he could hear exactly what the priest said next. The priest looked at him sharply and lowered his voice and said, "My dear Prime Minister, the time has come for the group to need you to sacrifice yourself. The priest grabbed the prime minister and reiterated that the group needed Hawkins to make a sacrifice.

The result of the parliamentary no-confidence vote on the government was quickly announced, but Prime Minister Hawkins no longer knew and did not need to know. The Queen, who was in the deep palace that night to rest after her daily reading, heard the particularly unexpected news that Hawkins, the youngest and most promising prime minister in the history of the empire, was found hanging himself in her large study by his secretary shortly after leaving Parliament. When the queen heard this, the book in her hand fell to the ground at once, and she got up and told the servant to prepare the clothes for the outing, but then he seemed to think of something, changed his mind, picked up the book from the stall, and told the servant to pour a glass of wine, and drank it slowly. If she weren't the queen, she would definitely visit Hawkins, who had been summoned by God, tonight. But her status meant she couldn't go. The queen remembered an incident when she was a child, and she leaned her neck and asked her father why the royal family could not control the power of the kingdom by itself, but needed a prime minister. There is nothing good or bad about the rules, only whether they are applicable or not. The Queen seemed to understand something, and it was the meeting that she had decided to attend tomorrow in Parliament.

The marshal did not commit suicide, it was not that the soldiers of the empire asked him to take care of everyone's safety. He looked out to sea as his representative of Kuris again asked for surrender, as if he could convey some message to his good friend in the navy, and then slowly rose from behind the fort and raised his hands. There is nothing appealing about the negotiation process, and it is impossible for the defeated side to get what it wants from the negotiating table. The marshal insisted that he could only surrender on behalf of the troops after the landing, and that it was not up to the marshal to decide that Emmeric would oppose him and establish diplomatic relations with Breez on an equal footing. Curris did not oppose the marshal's insistence, and in the end it was only an armistice. The one-sided war ended in two battles, and the Breech withdrew from the battlefield with the corpses of many soldiers to gain nothing, and when the weary Brethren soldiers reached the seashore, the navy soldiers had not even had time to send the transport boats, perhaps they did not dare to come to the near sea at all. Along with the return of the Breesian soldiers, there were also plenipotentiaries of the Continental Army who were ready to go to Breech to continue negotiations, and the presence of these representatives made every Breesan soldier on the transport boat feel a thorn in his body.

When Warman returned to Emmeric, he saw with his own eyes the Brethic fleet anchored far away in the open sea, far from the high-spirited state of the first time he arrived in Emmeric. When Frans's fleet rushed over like a reckless man, the Breeth fleet consciously got out of the way, and the Frans sent Warman back to the headquarters of the Continental Army, bringing with them a letter of intent from Frans. Frans had already begun to see Emmeric as an independent nation, and they discussed their thoughts in detail in the letter of will, which Curris had placed on the table before he had finished reading it. He didn't bother to greet Warman, who had just returned, so he sent his subordinate and friend to the fleet of Breth, and authorized Warman to negotiate with the former suzerainty of Breth, as the plenipotentiary ambassador of the Emerik realm. Somewhat regretful, Warman did not participate in the most important battle, and did not have the opportunity and time to tell Curis what happened to him at the submarine base, he accepted Curris's dispatch and hurried to the fleet that was about to return to Breth.

Hong Shiba's various anecdotes made Mei Yi want to see the true face of this giant bandit more and more. Especially the rumors about Hong Shiba's ability to transform in people's mouths, Mei Yi is very interested. It seems that this Hong 18 may have a continued relationship with the Xiyi Group, Mei Yi thought of a very good idea, and was just about to act, when he suddenly heard that the Qianzong who had just left came to report in a hurry, Hong 18 was attacking, and thousands of bandits had already arrived outside Hezhou City! Looking at Mr. Qian's appearance, I have never been so frightened in the past. is also an official of the Liupin Imperial Court, so cowardly, what kind of system has he become? Mei Yi glared at Mr. Qian, and Mr. Qian immediately felt his gaffe in front of Xin Shangfeng, and immediately suppressed the panic and recounted the enemy situation in detail. Mei Yi called Mr. Qian to come over and ask him to send him out again.

Outside the city, Hong Eighteen's men and horses are all over the mountains, the forward is ready to rush the car with a ladder, and the rear is waving the flag and shouting to strengthen the momentum, which is indeed a bit chilling and trembling. Looking closely, the thousands of bandits are not uniformly dressed, and these people are clearly just peddlers, pawns, and village men, except for the red turbans wrapped around their heads to tie their hair, it is difficult to distinguish whether they are people or bandits. Probably when the bandits were ready to stop, a certain vermilion sedan chair came from the winding forest road, and looking at the posture, it should be the bandit leader Hong 18 who had arrived. Mei Yi asked Mr. Qian, who was pretending to be him, to act according to the plan, and he himself changed his position, ready to take a good look at the appearance of this Hong Eighteen, and see how this down-and-out scholar who has repeatedly failed in the imperial examination has become the leader of the bandits. Ding Yong beside him had already set up arrows in his bows, and his arms were forced, aiming at the bandits who were standing at the front, and when the bandits launched an attack on the city, they would fire ten thousand arrows to destroy these bandits. Of course, if Shangfeng didn't have an order, they would have been like this all the time, and they would have been in battle. Mei Yi didn't tell them to release the arrows, and the other party didn't attack, because the sedan chair only came to the open space outside the city, but no one came out. Look at the shoulders of those who carry the sedan chair, because they have traveled from afar, their bodies are tired, and the sedan chair cannot be empty, so why is there no movement for a long time? Mei Yi frowned, and motioned to Mr. Qian to continue to maintain his majesty and not move, quietly watching every move on the other side. The bandits under the city began to change their formations, slowly forming a pattern of stars holding the moon, surrounding the sedan chair that was still left in the last one in the middle, Mei Yi felt that the opposite side was about to act.

Mei Yi thought that he could meet Hong Shibai this time, and he knew that the curtain of the sedan chair was opened, and what appeared inside was actually a life-size statue. The face of the statue wrapped in a red scarf and a gray robe on the same head that makes people feel daunted is pale and grinning, is this what Hong Eighteen looks like? Mei Yi's conjecture was confirmed by Ding Yong, a subordinate of President Qian, who told him that this was the case after Hong Eighteen's transformation, but he didn't have a piece of cloth on his body. Dare is just a statue of Hong Eighteen, Mei Yi has a feeling of being humiliated, is this pretending to be a ghost? But no, the bandits on the opposite side surrounded the mud tire that was still in the sedan chair, bowed three times and bowed nine times, and at the same time muttered something in their mouths, and the incense candles lit around the sedan chair emitted real smoke, revealing a trace of weirdness. Qian always told Mei Yi that often as soon as this ceremony is over, the bandits will desperately use all kinds of guys to start attacking the city gate, according to the captured bandits, this ceremony is on behalf of the god's leader Hong 18 is praying for blessings and armor to a group of brothers, as long as they go through this process, they will be invulnerable. Mei Yi thought it was a lie, but Mr. Qian insisted that they had seen the so-called armor on the captives. Mr. Qian said that the armor of the bandit is located on the chest, whether it is large or small, it varies from person to person. It feels like a pimple, but it is indeed effective, the bow and arrow of the official Ding Yong, if there is no bow that cannot be pulled away without the arm strength of one hundred and fifty stones, as soon as the arrow leaves the string, the ordinary armor a hundred steps away cannot resist at all, but the so-called armor given by Hong Eighteen can not penetrate the arrow. Mei Yi became interested, and he asked Mr. Qian to estimate how far the sedan chair bearers were from the city wall.

It is true that I didn't see this clay statue with my own eyes that could give people clothes and armor, but Mei Yi shot the arrow with a whoosh after drawing the bow, but no one fell, and a sedan chair man showed off as if he had to pull out the arrow and throw it on the ground. After the ceremony, the bandits poured into the city gate like a tide, and the sound of knocking and knocking came. A large number of elite Ding Yong behind the city gate are preparing, once the city gate is lost, they will start to take the initiative to attack Hong Shibai's people to repel the enemy's attack. With a bang, the bandits swarmed in, and the smashed gates tumbled to the ground and trampled on. Ding Yong of the government fired arrows in a chaotic manner, and many bandits suddenly lay crooked on the street. The officers and soldiers of Hezhou pushed the newly developed cannon onto the city wall, and fired in three or five formations, and the red turban bandits outside the city, who had not yet had time to enter the urn city of Hezhou, fell in pieces on the road leading to the city gate of Hezhou. Qian always felt that this Hong Eighteen Armor was nothing more than that, and it was not that he couldn't resist the divine power of the imperial court, and he was just about to give himself credit to the new governor, but found that the governor was not in the city. Mr. Qian turned around and looked towards the side of the urn city, where was there still the shadow of the superintendent among the people who were fighting bloodily below. Until the bandits' strength was exhausted and all retreated, Mr. Qian could not find where the new governor was. This made him break out in a cold sweat, where did the governor go?

The prime minister's hanging, which is a major event in the history of the British Empire, is also an out-and-out bleakness. The people in parliament who were still condemning Prime Minister Hawkins yesterday began to sigh that the prime minister in the prime of life should not take all the responsibility for the failure of the empire by hanging himself, and even the prince who threw his cane at the prime minister's head shed muddy old tears. The Queen officially announced the Prime Minister's suicide in Parliament, and the entire Parliament observed a moment of silence for the Prime Minister. The parliament unanimously passed a resolution not to implement the no-confidence motion, and in recognition of Hawkins' service to the country, the parliament made a decision to erect a tall statue of Hawkins in the center of the capital. The Queen breathed a sigh of relief at the Parliament's decision, and she turned her head to nod lightly to the new royal advisor behind her, Father Wells, who responded positively. The group has made such a huge sacrifice this time, and in fact, since the last agreed meeting of the gods and gods was not held as scheduled, the group has been facing tremendous pressure both internally and externally. The group cannot retain a member at the risk of losing or even being deprived of its control, and even if he is a prime minister, he is only a member of the group, and the group has the right to demand the sacrifice of its members. Of course, the news that the Queen received from the priest this morning was somewhat unusual, the Prime Minister did not very much agree to the advice given by the priest yesterday, he said that he would consider it, so the priest obtained the consent of the core members of the group to help the prime minister make the appropriate sacrifice for the group on time. For the priest, the work was somewhat tricky, but it was completed in time. Now it is time to arrange the next move, and for the group, a politician who succeeds Hawkins at the center of the empire is the most needed wealth at hand.
