Chapter Forty-Eight: Can You Bear His Anger?

As soon as the news broke, the federal parliamentarians and the cabinet held a joint meeting to discuss the response.

It was a very strange meeting, the mobilization and convening of the people was very comprehensive, but the topic was only around one person, and even elevated this person to the national level, to carry out strategic analysis and response.

However, none of the people present at the meeting thought that this was wrong, and the reason was very simple, that is, all kinds of news about Sun Dao had already been transmitted to the New World through various channels in the past three months, and all forces had already understood, had already had all kinds of thoughts, and understood what kind of person this was.

"George is really not worry-free, the riot of the cultists of the old gods before, his killing behavior, brought a lot of trouble to the Federation, and now he has become a colonel from a brigadier general, and he has provoked a terrible person."

"Nord. Did Firth really come to the New World? ”

"The one who killed the monster werewolf? Didn't our delegation already send over an assessment of his combat strength, and the results were out? ”

"The Council has made a judgment that the combat power of the Origin Knight is classified as strategic, and it has the strength to deter a country, by the way, the Origin Knight is Nord. The knight title of Firth, according to the tradition of the Blackwater Knight, is not a close person, and it is impolite to call him by name and surname directly, so I advise you that it is better to get used to calling him the Knight of Origin to avoid unnecessary trouble. ”

"You say he's staying well in Anglo-Salan, and what is he doing in our New World? Don't you think we're messy enough on our side? In terms of science and technology, industry, power, and enjoyment, the gap between the Federation and the Kingdom of Anglo-Saland is not a little bit, and who would cross the ocean to a normal person? ”

"I heard that it is related to the Firth industry, and it seems that they want to invest in the banking industry here in our New World, which is also strange to say. In the past two years, trade in the New World has developed rapidly, and the financial industry and banks have continued to expand, and now we have a shortage of gold and silver for monetary security, and this time we have sent a delegation to the Old World. Shouldering the responsibility of this aspect, they wanted to find a way to carry out a new round of borrowing, probably because their actions attracted the attention of the bankers in Shadow City, and then attracted the attention of the Faith Bank, and brought this one. ”

"Speaking of this, I am a little dissatisfied, how the selection of the delegation this time, how was selected. They were in Shadowland, and they must have gotten the Nord before we did...... Origin knight's news, why do you still have conflicts with the other party because of a trivial matter? There was even a conflict, and I doubt that the Origin Knights crossed the ocean this time to have something to do with this conflict, this kind of thing should not have happened, they used to borrow money. Learn to be humble and face the old powers. Show due respect, but end up causing trouble! ”

"I'm not easy on Senator Wade's words, diplomats don't grovel to be respected, but I admit that it's unwise for them to have a conflict with the Knights of Origin."

"Oh. Mr. James, your words are interesting, are you exculpating them? ”

"Ladies and gentlemen," the Speaker struck his hammer. Putting an end to the chaotic bickering, "Isn't this the time to blame each other or hold accountable, shouldn't we first come up with a response?" This Knight of Origin is a strategic-level figure, compared to the God of the Old Day, I'm afraid it's not much worse, the appearance of the God of the Old Day has made us fall into passivity, the situation is a mess, the cannibal is spreading throughout the country, it is a major challenge, if you provoke the Knight of Origin again, oh my God, I can't think about the consequences. ”

"Honorable Speaker, after you said this, I suddenly realized that this may not be a bad thing," the man known as Mr. James, a man with short hair, currently serving in the Cabinet, in charge of the National Guard, is rumored to be a strong candidate for the next Secretary of Defense, "I mean, the arrival of the Knight of Origin cannot be said to be a bad thing, maybe we can use his power to solve the problems in the country." ”

"Whimsical, I don't think his arrival is a good thing." Senator Wade mercilessly sarcastic.

"Silence! Quiet! The Speaker maintained order again, "James, make your thoughts clear, you want to use the power of the Knights of Origin to fight against the gods of the old days?" ”

"Yes, but that's not all." James nodded, "In addition to the religious problems of the old gods, as well as practical problems, I think that the financial difficulties of the Federation can also allow him to help, of course, I don't mean by his fist, but by his Firth Bank, about this bank, I have done some research, these are the results of research, you can circulate it." He took out a stack of letters from the table in front of him, "This is a bank with high-quality assets and a deep background, and it does not exist in isolation, there are many industrial and mining endorsements, plus the special status of the Origin Knights in the kingdom, it is fully capable of solving the current predicament of the Federation." ”

"What does this mean? Surrender the interests of our federation to outsiders? Senator Wade immediately seized the opportunity and retorted, "Don't you understand what your proposal represents, the foundation of the establishment of the Union lies in the growth of trade and population, which makes the demand for money grow, and if you put in an institution with a complete system like the Flu Bank, it is equivalent to putting the tiger into the flock, and the final result is self-evident!" ”

"Yes, I think I know a lot more about this than you do," James faced the challenge, pulled a piece of paper from his desk, and read, "Ladies and gentlemen, these are some of the things that I have summarized, since the Federation became independent, the trade volume between the Federation and the Old World on the other side of the strait has risen dramatically through the stormy sea, especially the birth of giant airships and steel giants, and the dangerous moat of the stormy ocean has turned into a smooth road, so that a young port city like New Port Dorrens was born. ”

He raised his head and looked around at everyone: "Port New Dorence is a city with typical New World characteristics, this city is not those ancient colonial continents, it is a new city because of the sea and sky trade, exporting flour, cotton, and wheat from the west and south of the Federation to the Old World, and at the same time accepting industrial products there, and slowly developing, so financial services such as finance and discounting came into being, and the future prospects are limitless, and at the same time, it is different from the old cities in the north, and there is no traditional Old World family network of intertwined relationships, a truly free and young city. ”

Everyone was a little surprised by what he said, but they did not expect that he, an official in charge of public security, would know the process of the rise of a port city well, and obviously had studied it in depth.

"If you know, why do you want to bring in outside forces?" Wade was also surprised, but he seemed to grasp the loophole in the other party's words, and immediately started questioning, revealing the relationship between the two political enemies, "You are knowingly committing a crime." ”

"You're wrong, Wade." James did not shy away from it, "It is precisely because this is a young city that in order to ensure his growth, it is necessary to bring in a strong enough force, and you think I am bringing in outsiders?" This is wrong again, isn't the history of the establishment of the Federation still not making you understand that as long as there are enough interests as a bondage, then outsiders can become their own people? Think about what would happen when the Firth family's interests and size in the New World surpassed those in the Old World? ”

His words were like a slap in the face, and they woke everyone up at once.

"Of course, this is the ideal state, shouldn't we strive for this possibility? This is a combination of good and good," James shrugged his shoulders when he saw that everyone was moved, "In the current situation, can he still be forcibly deported?" On the contrary, once the Firth family is allowed to board the chariot of the Federation by relying on the binding of interests, then we will also have strategic power, and the relationship with Angesaland can be quickly improved, but I heard that the queen has a good relationship with the Origin Knight. ”

"But bringing in outsiders ......" Wade still didn't give up.

"Shut up!" This time, it was the Speaker who suddenly scolded, "Mr. Wade, I think your thoughts are very dangerous, do you really have the idea of expelling the Origin Knights?" My God, did you know that knight is a war machine, and if he gets angry, our whole country will be in danger! You are trying to provoke, what are you trying to do! ”

It seems that this speaker has been putting up with it for a long time, and when he heard this, he finally broke out.

Wade was immediately honest, but he was very depressed.

"It's a shame that I should have been born as a nobleman in the Old Continent, but now I have to succumb to the fist of a knight, but what can I do, the strength of that gentleman has exceeded the rules, and I can only act within the rules of the game."

"Don't keep holding on to outsiders, aren't our ancestors also outsiders to this land?" James looked serious, "On the other hand, there is no mature banking system in the federation, and sooner or later it will be eroded by external forces, rather than passively accepting, it is better to take the initiative to participate, establish enough voice in the process, and prepare for the recovery of rights in the future, if you don't do anything, it is tantamount to burying your head in the soil, and in the end there is no countermeasure, what do you say?" ”

"I reserve my opinion!" Noticing everyone's expressions, Wade knew that the general trend had gone and no longer insisted.

"In that case, James, you'd better draft a document and vote on it," the Senate Speaker suggested after seeing everyone's appearance, "until then, it can only be carried out by executive order by the Cabinet, and we cannot interfere in this work, I believe that the President will arrange it." ”

"Yes." James stood up and bowed contentedly, realizing that he had really grasped his opportunity and might be able to soar into the sky.

Boom!

Just when everyone thought that this emergency meeting finally had a more desirable result, the door of the conference room was suddenly slammed open, and then a communications officer stumbled in, his face was red from the rapid running, he was out of breath and gasping violently, but he didn't intend to rest at all, so he shouted directly-

"The Church of the Old God, entrenched in the south, has suddenly gathered a large number of men and started to move north, and they have a lot of weapons! Two cities have already fallen to the south, and wars have broken out! (To be continued.) )
