Chapter 477: Empire (10)

Tianhua Star Field. On the star of Rock Li.

This planet has beautiful scenery and abundant products, and it is the private property of the Zhou family.

At this moment, the head of the family, Zhou Mengde, was sitting opposite his brother Zhou Junyi, drinking tea and discussing.

Today, the situation in the Star Sea is changing, and the empire is also unstable, so the principals of these two families have not been easy recently!

"Big brother! It's been a long time since we've been like this, so sit back and relax! Zhou Junyi put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a little emotion.

"Yes! There have been so many troubles lately, and none of them are worry-free! Zhou Mengde lowered his eyelids and silently looked at the verdant tea leaves in the cup, which slowly changed color in the soaking of the tea, and the mist steamed up, reflecting his handsome face, which was still young.

"Do you think that plan proposed by the Yun family can really have a good result?" He asked slowly.

Zhou Junyi said with some hesitation: "From the current point of view, it should be beneficial!" But in the long run, it's hard to say! The empire of Nuoda is divided into six, and each of the six major families controls a piece, and the political pattern formed by this is really ......"

He shook his head and didn't continue.

This plan was originally proposed by Yun Hongchang, and it was reluctantly decided after countless quarrels among several family heads. Everyone knew that this was not a clever idea, but the strength of the six major families was close, and no one was willing to make concessions, so they came up with such a ridiculous plan!

In the past, this would have worked! There are many countries in the Star Sea World whose political structures are similar models! Although doing so will undoubtedly weaken the Empire!

However, now is different from before, at this time of chaos in the world, it is very likely that the future Star Sea World will merge into a few overlord regimes, or even unify them! In fact, the empire that is already in a state of division will definitely only be eliminated!

At that time, where should the Zhou family, which has been inherited for thousands of years, go?

"According to the previous agreement, it is less than a month before we launch!" After being silent for a while, Zhou Mengde said again:

"After the matter is completed, at the next joint meeting of the heads of the family, everyone will start drawing lots to decide the ownership of the new emperor of the empire! And ......"

"And what?" Zhou Junyi asked.

"At the joint meeting that ended yesterday, Yun Hongchang suddenly proposed to re-enter Yun Haoyu into the Yun family tree and restore his status as a descendant of the family!" Zhou Meng said sarcastically in German.

Zhou Junyi couldn't help but be stunned, and after a little thought, he reacted, and sneered: "This guy is really shrewd!" He was willing to do this, because he was eyeing the vast territory of the more than three hundred star fields of the Starlight Kingdom, right? ”

"Or what do you think?" Zhou Mengde sneered:

He probably thought that under Xue Chunfeng's attack, the Starlight Kingdom was already destined to be more vicious and less auspicious! As long as that child dies, there will be no owner of the country at that time, and as the head of the Yun family, he is fully qualified to take back the inheritance of the kingdom! ”

Zhou Junyi snorted: "He is so sure that he thinks that the Starlight Kingdom will definitely fall?" Don't shoot yourself in the foot! ”

At the mention of this, Zhou Mengde's expression became a little solemn: "Xue Chunfeng's strength is not fake, what about more than two million fleets!" They are all the elites of the empire, and I'm afraid that kid will be a little difficult this time! Although I have always been optimistic about him! ”

"But what if he really wins and pockets all the twelve provinces of southern Xinjiang?" Zhou Junyi asked.

"This ...... Probably unlikely! The head of the house was a little skeptical and said:

"Of course, it's not good to say! That kid has always been lucky, and every time something big happens, there is always something unexpected! Maybe he'll still be unbelievable! ”

"But if that happens! The impact on the empire is too great! We'll have to think about it! ”

Zhou Junyi leaned over slightly, stared at his brother and said, "I think...... No, I'm sure! The southern frontier will fall completely into the hands of that kid, and it won't be long before he will go to war against the Shuofeng Empire! ”

Ignoring his brother's surprised look, he continued to smile and said, "By this day next year, we will all be the people of the Starlight Empire!" ”

Zhou Mengde frowned slightly, and then smiled again: "You are too partial to that child, right?" Just because he's your grandson-in-law? ”

"Alright! Brother, I won't say anything else, as long as he can successfully take the southern Xinjiang, I will step down from this position, and I will replace you to deal with him in the future! For your granddaughter's sake, and for the sake of us helping him in the past, I don't think he will embarrass you too much! ”

"That's what you said! When the time comes, don't regret it, big brother! Zhou Junyi laughed.

A close maid hurriedly walked in from outside the courtyard and handed a sealed letter to the head of the family: "Your Royal Highness, this is an urgent report from the family's secret intelligence network in southern Xinjiang!" ”

The head of the family was startled, and hurriedly took it, and after opening it and looking at it, his face changed instantly.

"Big brother?" Zhou Junyi asked tentatively, "But the war in southern Xinjiang has become clear?" ”

Zhou Mengde was silent for a long time before he slowly exhaled: "Okay! Brother, from now on, you are the head of the Zhou family! ”

“……”——

On October 25, 7,937 in the interstellar calendar, the battle of Southern Xinjiang, which lasted less than ten days, finally came to an end!

Because at the critical moment of the Great War, the former staff marshal of the Empire, the first person in the military, Gurlons, came forward to persuade him to surrender, causing the vast majority of the Imperial fleet to defect! Xue Chunfeng, who had just been self-reliant for less than half a month, was defeated and lost, losing all his family funds, and even becoming a prisoner himself!

At the same time, there was also good news from Cameron, who was deep in the lone army: taking advantage of the fact that most of the remaining troops in southern Xinjiang were transferred to the border with the Shuofeng Empire to garrison, the 200,000 task force fleet took the Zhiyuan Star Domain without much effort! Captured hundreds of military and political officials, including the queen!

Yun Haoyu immediately ordered him to send the news of Xue Chunfeng's capture to all the remaining legions in southern Xinjiang and ordered them to surrender!

A few hours later, all the generals who learned the truth chose to obey the orders of the kingdom!

Not long after, Zhu Yin, who had already received several mobile interstellar fortresses and was about to turn around and fight again, finally agreed to surrender after receiving the persuasion of Gurungs, after some weighing!

So far, Xue Chunfeng's 2.3 million imperial fleet has lost nearly 800,000 in the war; Of the seventy Legions of Abilities, there are still more than forty! Now it's all in the Starlight Kingdom!

With the addition of this group of former imperial elites, the kingdom's strength has increased significantly, and it has begun to truly have the capital to compete with the superpowers!

After the victory, the kingdom's fleet marched non-stop, entering the southern frontier as fast as possible, and bringing the entire Shangyu system under effective control! And strengthened the defense of the border area bordering the Shuofeng Empire!

By November, the Shangyu Galaxy and the original Starlight Kingdom had been completely connected! The boundaries controlled by the Yun Haoyu Group have exceeded seven hundred star fields! That's the entire territory of a superpower!

For a while, a considerable part of the attention of the major forces in the Star Sea, which was constantly fighting, was attracted here!

With such a complete galaxy with a prosperous economy and a sound industrial system, and with more than a million elite imperial fleets and a large number of high-quality middle- and lower-level officers, the strength of this regime has really risen to a new level! It has reached the level of a first-class power!

The name of the Starlight Kingdom began to be known by almost all the big forces and began to really pay attention!

At the end of November, with the approval of Yun Haoyu, the capital of the kingdom was officially relocated from the Tengyuan Star Domain to the Zhiyuan Star Domain, which is economically developed and has convenient transportation!

"Sister! Have you lost all the land and property you have? In the royal fleet, Luo Qiyue asked Zhong Qianying with a smile.

"Hmmm! Long before the war, I had the people below dispatch and sell them all out in batches! Zhong Qianying said with a smile:

"Anyway, I had the experience of moving the capital once, but this time I am much more proficient! Those who took over were still secretly happy in their hearts at the beginning, but now they are afraid that they won't even be able to cry! ”

Luo Qiyue also smiled: "When I go over there this time, I will buy more land and hoard it!" After the price rises to a sky-high price, we will throw it out, and we will not lack pocket money in this life! ”

"Of course!" Zhong Chanying said proudly.

As the capital of a country, it is natural that it will be valued by the top of the regime, and all kinds of preferential treatment in terms of policies and countless investments are due! Therefore, many business families are willing to come to the royal capital to do business, and the land and various industries in the capital star field are probably the most expensive in the entire country!

As early as when the capital Yanlong Star Domain was first established, Zhong Xuanying saw the opportunity and preemptively acquired a large amount of land to hoard! Sure enough, in the space of the next year, the price of land on the capital planet increased by hundreds of times! Even the land prices of several neighboring planets have risen wildly!

Later, the kingdom moved its capital, and as Yun Haoyu's pillow people, they were the first to learn the news, and they transferred all the industries at hand early, and replaced them with Yuanjing, and then made a big purchase in the Tengyuan Star Domain!

Needless to say, the rising land prices have made their assets swell to an astonishing number again!

Although Yun Haoyu later entrusted all the royal property to Feng Lanxi to take care of, he warned them not to go too far. But for their behavior of taking out the private money in hand and making a small profit! He's still turning a blind eye!

Besides, this is also human nature, and it can't be avoided at all! Including those important ministers of the kingdom, which of them did not purchase some property? This is a common phenomenon in the Star Sea World, and there is nothing incomprehensible!

This time I went over there, and the two girls were already full of energy, and they wanted to make him a lot of money again!

On December 1st, the ministers persuaded Yun Haoyu to be the emperor and take the right name!

The next day, the Starlight Kingdom was officially renamed the Empire, and Yun Haoyu was the first emperor, and the capital was to the Yuan Star Domain! At the same time, the vassals are great!
