The first to be destroyed was the robot with a crack in the chest of the number two, and after taking out an enemy, the federal artillery was focused on the robot number one.

Faced with twice as powerful firepower as before, the remaining robot didn't exist for long, and it turned into a pile of scrap metal on the ground.

After dealing with the two robots, the Federation began to concentrate on clearing out the remaining enemies.

With the help of the red mecha warriors assigned to the various clearance units, the clearance troops searched for the enemy with great ease. As long as the enemy is discovered by the Federation Army, these enemies will inevitably turn into scrap metal.

If the two sides were to face each other, this group of enemies, numbering in the millions, would definitely not take much time for the Federation Army, which had the advantage in numbers, to take out. However, because they were scattered and hidden, it took a lot of time for the Federation to find them.

Therefore, it took three days for the Federation Army to completely wipe out all the enemies in this area.

When the last enemy mecha warrior was killed, the cheers of the people and soldiers immediately resounded throughout the capital star.

In contrast to the people's relief and fear of fear and the joy of the army's victory, all the civil servants in the federal government, from the president to the mayor, were sad.

The reason is very simple, this battle has completely destroyed the economic center of the capital star. The economy of the entire capital city has regressed for more than ten years, and the economy of the entire capital area has regressed for more than 15 years because of this chain reaction.

There is no way, the economy of the capital area is mainly concentrated in the capital star, and if the capital star is unlucky, the other planets will be even more unlucky.

"How long can we use our economic reserves?" Chen Yu, who was so irritable that he walked back and forth in the office, asked the economists who had been summoned.

One of the oldest economists among all the economists took out a document and looked at it and said, "Your Excellency, according to our calculations and speculations, our economic reserves will only last for three months if we do not immediately rebuild the economy." ”

Chen Yu couldn't help but stop abruptly, and asked with an incredible expression, "Only three months?" Can't we delay the civil unrest with so many material reserves? ”

The economist swallowed his saliva and said: "Although our material reserves are abundant, most of them are daily necessities and military supplies, which can only ensure that the people do not go hungry, and other ordinary necessities and various consumer goods have to be purchased from outside." If it weren't for these things, the people, who were already pampered, would have ousted this political axe. ”

When Chen Yu heard this, he immediately surged up in his heart: "Damn the past federal political axe, why do you treat the people of the capital area so kindly?

"Even if the people of the capital area at that time were all relatives and friends who were related to you, it was not possible to set a law that would provide them with free food, all kinds of daily necessities, and even luxury goods once a month.

"Those bastard people, who have been accustomed to living without money for so many years, can live without these things, and now if they don't have these supplies, then they won't rebel immediately!"

Chen Yu knew that this would definitely happen, because even when the parliament ruled the capital area, they were not exempt from this supply system.

If we are unable to maintain this supply system, we can be sure that the people of the entire metropolitan area will step down as soon as possible.

This is not as simple as letting Tang Long step down like last time, last time those people just marched and demonstrated because they didn't like Tang Long.

At that time, although Tang Long transferred two-thirds of the materials without authorization, and the people also had opinions, because their material rations were still similar to before, and they had not really harmed their interests, so after Tang Long threatened them, they immediately retreated.

But this time, except for food rations, other material rations cannot be satisfied, and the people will definitely resist desperately. And he didn't know that Tang Longken would not help him suppress these people.

If Tang Long stood by and let the people oust him, and then take control of the parliament and directly serve as the president, then he, with all the power and military power, would turn the Wanluo Federation into his personal product!

Thinking of this, Chen Yu's heart trembled, and he hurriedly threw away such a thought, he didn't dare to think about it, because the more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became, Chen Yu regretted a little, how could he look for Tang Long as a partner.

After changing his mind, he asked economists: "Why are we only able to maintain the supply of the metropolitan area for three months when our economic reserves are so huge?" According to my estimate, even if it lasts for a few years, it won't be a problem. ”

The economist said helplessly: "It's not because other forces are unlucky that we are deliberately raising prices." ”

"! These bastards who take advantage of the fire! How could they do that! Chen Yu scolded regardless of his demeanor.

Hearing this, the economists all lowered their heads and muttered in their hearts: "Please, whoever told you to shout for the reunification of the federation as soon as you came to power is tantamount to treating all forces as enemies."

"Since you are an enemy, when you see that you are in trouble, if you don't make a move, do you still want to help you tide over the difficulties?"

Chen Yu suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do we have to buy supplies from these forces?" We can't ......."

When Chen Yu said this, he suddenly stopped, because he remembered that the capital area was surrounded by other forces of the Federation, and if he bought supplies from foreign countries, he would definitely be intercepted and seized by these forces as soon as they were transported into the country.

An economist obviously didn't realize that Chen Yu had discovered his mistake, so he kindly reminded him. Not surprisingly, he was rewarded with a white eye.

Chen Yu gritted his teeth for a while and asked, "Can you rebuild our economic powerhouse within three months?" ”

When the economists heard this, they all shook their heads like rattles. Trimester? Don't laugh, there is no time for two or three years to restore the destroyed economic zone, and there is no desire to restore it to its original appearance.

Chen Yu sat down on the chair dejectedly, and when he saw this, the old economist reminded him a little cautiously: "Your Excellency, you can ask for assistance from those big families of our Wanluo Federation, maybe they can ......."

His words stopped at this point, as Chen Yu waved his hand at them and told them to stand back.

After everyone left, Chen Yu lit his cigar and took a hard breath, looking at the ethereal smoke, Chen Yu sighed deeply.

He knew that the economist proposed that it was a very good way to ask for help from the major families, but if he could get the support of those big families, did he still need to hurt his brain and ask these economists for a solution?

Thinking of these families' requests for their visits, they all found various excuses to refuse, thinking of the Lin family, who had already set a date, and suddenly said that Lin Zhendong was not available recently, so let him make an appointment next time, Chen Yu couldn't help but bite the cigar and squeak, and scolded in a low voice: "It's very tactful, isn't it clear that you don't want to support me?" Damn it! ”

Chen Yu knows very well that why these families are unwilling to support him must be related to Lin Nan, that guy has long been eager to step down.

Thinking of this, Chen Yu spat out his cigarette and thought: "But Lin Nan, do you think that if I step down, you must be sitting in the position of president?" You must know that those big families support more than just a force in the capital area. Maybe they made an agreement to cede the capital area to other powers?

"Besides, even if these big families don't want the power of the capital area to disappear and continue to support you as president. However, don't you forget who is in the hands of the military power in the capital area now, and that guy is so easy to get along with? Maybe he wants to be president himself! ”

Thinking of Tang Long's existence, Chen Yu suddenly remembered the information he had received not long ago and that his cronies had sent to enter the Great Tang Kingdom of the Chaos Galaxy.

Thinking that he hadn't had time to watch it because he was busy dealing with financial issues, he couldn't help but immediately press a few buttons on the table and call up a piece of data to watch.

Deng Tao, who was sitting on a cargo ship, didn't know why the boss, who was the president of the Wanluo Federation, wanted him to come to this chaotic galaxy to investigate the overall situation of a force called Datang. In his mind, the chaotic galaxy is a place of chaos, backwardness and poverty, and there is nothing to investigate in this place.

Since there was no flight to the chaotic galaxy, Deng Tao finally found an acquaintance who was selling arms everywhere after spending a lot of work, and got on the spaceship that entered the chaotic galaxy.

Deng Tao felt that he was really lucky, and the acquaintance he found happened to go to Datang in the chaos galaxy to do business. If this is not the case, even if he finds a spaceship to enter the chaos-free galaxy, he doesn't know where the Datang forces are in the chaos-free galaxy.

Thinking that the acquaintances beside him were very likely to know about the situation in Datang, Deng Tao immediately began to collect intelligence: "Brother Zhang, what kind of place is this Datang?" ”

Brother Zhang, who was humming a song, smiled when he heard this: "It is a beautiful and rich place full of money. ”

"Beautiful and rich? Is this a force that says the Chaos Free Galaxy? Deng Tao couldn't help but think suspiciously, but he didn't ask this, but said with a light in his eyes: "Where is money everywhere?" Brother Zhang, tell me about it. ”

Deng Tao behaved like this because he had been giving Brother Zhang the impression of a young man who was crazy and eager to get rich for so long.

"Hehe, you also know, this is just an exaggeration, but let me tell you, it is indeed easy to make money in Datang, and all kinds of opportunities to make money can be found almost everywhere, not to mention that businessmen from several nearby countries will run to Datang, even businessmen from some distant countries will come." Brother Zhang said.

Deng Tao didn't believe what Brother Zhang said, and there were opportunities to make money everywhere? That's not how deceiving people is, is it?

Although he didn't think so, Deng Tao still pretended to swallow his saliva and asked anxiously: "Brother Zhang, what is the opportunity to make money?" Tell me about it. ”

"Hehe, you can't say this, it's up to you to find it yourself, it's a rule." Brother Zhang blinked and smiled.

Of course, Deng Tao knows that this is a rule between businessmen, but why do you, an arms dealer, also engage in this rule? Deng Tao scolded angrily in his heart, but on the surface, he pleaded pitifully.

Of course, in a situation where one doesn't care, one doesn't want to say, the topic of making money ends quickly.

"Brother Zhang, what kind of goods are you transporting to Datang this time? It was actually loaded with a boatload. Deng Tao changed the topic and said. He will not directly ask about the topic of Datang to gather intelligence, this method of gathering intelligence is the most stupid, and it will make people doubt his identity at any time.

"Oh, a batch of old antiques, powder guns and gunpowder shells." Brother Zhang replied casually.

"Powder guns and powder bullets? The kind of ancient weapon that preceded the widespread use of laser weapons? How much are these antiques worth? ”

Deng Tao's face was full of surprise, he didn't expect that Brother Zhang would actually transport these old antiques to Datang to sell.

Could it be that Datang is so rich that someone actually buys these old antique collections? Didn't you say that the people of the chaotic galaxy ate the last meal and didn't finish the meal?

Moreover, judging from the chaos of the chaotic galaxy, even if the rich want to buy weapons, they also buy new weapons to equip their own guards, how can it be possible to buy antiques?

"Oh, when I said the old antiques just now, I mean that the style of this batch of goods is ancient, not that these goods are antiques, and this batch of goods has just been produced." Brother Zhang saw that Deng Tao had misunderstood, and couldn't help explaining.

Deng Tao, who was already very surprised that Brother Zhang was transporting antique firearms to Datang to sell, couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard that this batch of goods was actually fresh goods that had just been produced, and asked after a while: "Brother Zhang, can you sell this goods for money?" You won't even be able to earn back your gas bills, right? ”

Brother Zhang looked at Deng Tao's expression of whether there was anything wrong with him, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Am I such an idiot?" Tell you, this batch of goods can be sold for three million Wulai coins! Listen clearly, it's three million Wulai coins, not three million Luo coins! ”

"Three million Wulai coins? 300 million loins? Impossible, right? Deng Tao looked incredulous.

Due to the division of the warlords of the Wanluo Federation, the warlords in various places printed currency privately, and the original Wanluo coins could hardly flow out of the capital area, so the Universe Bank raised the exchange rate of Wanluo coins to Wulai coins to 100 to 1.

"Hmph, I won't say much, when the money arrives, you will believe it." Brother Zhang said with an unhappy face.

"Uh, Brother Zhang, it's not that I don't believe it, it's just that this is too surprising, how could anyone buy this kind of gunpowder gun that has been obsolete for I don't know how many years." Deng Tao said with a smile.

Brother Zhang thought for a while, put on a smile and said: "Hehe, don't blame you, I couldn't believe it when I saw the news, and when I came to the door, I found out that the other party really wanted it, because after signing the contract with them, they immediately gave half of the money." ”

"Signing? Brother Zhang, in this chaotic galaxy, can the contract still be valid? Deng Tao asked. Not to mention the chaotic galaxy, even in the current Wanluo Federation, there are not necessarily many contracts to be followed. Now everyone has it, and the legal effect of the contract has expired 10,000 years earlier.

Brother Zhang said: "I don't know about other places, but Datang's contract is valid, if someone like me swallows the deposit and doesn't act according to the contract, not only will it be impossible for me and my organization to appear in Datang again, but I will also be hunted down by countless mercenaries."

"Not to mention being chased and killed by mercenaries, just not being able to enter Datang to do business can make me lose money, because the people in Datang abide by the contract. You know, my organization was deceived several times when I was in the Wanluo Federation, and I used all my connections, but I couldn't find anyone, and in the end, I paid for the deficit out of my own pocket.

"Now my organization doesn't do much business with other people, and specializes in Datang's business, which is not only more profitable than before, but also safer. It seems that everyone has to abide by the contract in order to make money. Speaking of which, Brother Zhang couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, it seems that Datang pays great attention to contracts, which means that Datang attaches great importance to economic development, and it seems that what Brother Zhang said earlier is very likely to be true." Deng Tao, who had collected a little information, kept this in his mind and continued to ask: "Brother Zhang, who is willing to spend so much money to buy this batch of goods?" Even if you buy it to play, you don't need so many goods, right? ”

"Oh, it's from a shooting range." Brother Zhang said.

"Shooting range? Could it be that the people of Datang can actually carry out these leisurely activities? Deng Tao was surprised again.

"Haha, I said that you regard Datang as the same as other forces in the Chaos Galaxy, I won't say much, just tell you that Datang is definitely more than the Wanluo Federation before the warlords were divided."

Brother Zhang couldn't help but smile when he saw Deng Tao stunned because of his words, and then continued: "Although in Datang, this kind of shooting range is not open by anyone, but the competition is very fierce, so this shooting range specially asked me to get some more powerful powder guns, and because of this, this batch of goods can be sold at this price." ”

"Isn't it common for shooting ranges to use weapons like laser guns? Why does this shooting range in Datang use this kind of powder gun? You must know that the armor that can reflect the laser beam in the shooting range cannot stop the bullets of the powder gun, how can such a dangerous weapon be imported into the shooting range, and you are not afraid of casualties for guests? Deng Tao asked puzzled.

"Hehe, it's not one shooting range that uses this kind of powder gun, but all the shooting ranges in Datang use this kind of weapon. As I said just now, these shooting ranges are not open by ordinary people, and the shooting ranges of Datang stipulate that people who do not have titles and military ranks cannot enter.

"In Datang, the people who can enter the shooting range and use this weapon have status and status, do you want the shooting range to take security measures for guests, can you still do enough?" Brother Zhang smiled.

"Huh? The shooting range turned into an aristocratic club? How can this be? "Deng Tao is a Mingzhu, so when he heard this very obvious hierarchical organization, he couldn't help but immediately become dissatisfied.

Brother Zhang smiled again: "Hehe, the Tang Dynasty is a country ruled by scholars, of course it can be like this." It's not that I'm talking about you, you don't have to be so excited when you hear about Reading Cai, in this year, the battle between Ming Cook and Reading Cai is not the main problem for a long time, maybe one day there will be an emperor who can unify the whole universe. ”

Seeing Deng Tao's disbelieving expression, Brother Zhang smiled, changed the topic and said: "The most fundamental reason why this kind of gunpowder gun shooting activity can be welcomed by the aristocratic class of Datang is that the master of Datang likes this kind of activity, and the top bosses all play this thing, and the people below will of course follow suit." ”

Deng Tao quickly calmed down, and after he heard this, he couldn't help asking: "Since the owner of Datang likes this activity, and since the shooting range needs this kind of powder gun, why doesn't Datang produce it itself, but buy it from outside?" Don't say that Datang doesn't have this kind of production capacity, everyone knows that the production of this weapon is very simple, and any metal factory can produce it. ”

Brother Zhang nodded and said: "Of course Datang will not have this kind of production capacity, you know, Datang can make its own warships, for Datang's factory, this little gadget is not worth mentioning at all."

"Because of this, it is impossible for the Ministry of Commerce of Datang to vacate a factory to produce this weapon, and Datang does not allow private manufacturing of weapons, so the shooting range has to buy it from the outside."

It was between these hala that the two of them came to the vicinity of a blue planet.

Knowing that this planet was the capital of Datang, Deng Tao couldn't help but be stunned, and then he remembered that he had not been intercepted and interrogated at all along the way.

Could it be that the power of the Tang Dynasty is so strong that there is no pirate in this vicinity? Is this calm place still a chaotic galaxy? And along the way, I didn't see a Datang alert force at all, could it be that Datang's vigilance system was so lax?

Deng Tao told Brother Zhang this question and got a "There are no pirates near Datang, and the alert troops are all at the border." Reply.

Although Deng Tao was not very satisfied with this answer, because when he entered the Datang border, he did not see the alert troops at all, but because the spacecraft had already entered the port for inspection, Deng Tao did not ask any more questions.

Brother Zhang accompanied the personnel of the spaceport to inspect the cargo and wait for the spacecraft cargo to be disinfected, while Deng Tao carefully looked at the spaceport.

Looking at these advanced and brand-new facilities, Deng Tao couldn't help but sigh that this spaceport was more beautiful and advanced than the spaceport in the capital of the Wanluo Federation.

He was a little skeptical about Brother Zhang's statement that there were thousands of such space ports on the Datang Capital Star.

However, when he saw that there were thousands of ships in this spaceport, stopping and leaving, and almost none of them could be empty for five minutes, he believed it.

At the same time, I also believe in what Brother Zhang said: The throughput of the Star Spaceport in the capital of the Tang Dynasty is at least more than 50,000 ships a day.

Deng Tao was deeply shocked by this, the throughput of 50,000 spaceships a day, before the warlords of the Wanluo Federation, the throughput of the capital Star Spaceport did not reach this number.

This huge throughput brings not only prosperity, but also huge economic benefits.

According to what Brother Zhang said, this Datang is not only the richest force in the chaotic galaxy, but also very likely the richest force in a large galaxy in the vicinity.

Deng Tao, who walked out of the spaceport, although he already thought that he had a certain understanding of Datang's wealth, when he saw the situation outside the spaceport, he still found that he did not understand Datang's wealth.

Spacious and clean streets, beautiful and bright flowers and trees; There are countless buildings on the side of the road, although they are not tall, but they are very beautiful and beautiful; Although the number is large, the traffic flow is orderly and quietly stops; Sven's polite, but hurried, energetic crowd.

All this made Deng Tao feel that the capital star of the Wanluo Federation was not comparable to the capital star of the Tang Dynasty at all.

When Deng Tao sighed, he suddenly found that there was a strange phenomenon in the crowd coming and going, when the crowd met some specific people, they would suddenly stop, nod and salute these specific people with a respectful face, and automatically get out of the way, and let these specific people who are also polite and polite pass.

Deng Tao could see that these people greeted and gave way to those specific people from the bottom of their hearts, because there was no trace of reluctance on their faces at all, some were just respectful envy, and a little bit of jealousy, and there was absolutely no look of disgust.

Deng Tao found that these specific people, just from their appearance, could not see any difference between them and ordinary people.

However, under his careful observation, Deng Tao found that these specific people had a small badge on their chests.

The patterns of this badge are not the same, Deng Tao found that there are bows and arrows, spears, axes, shields and other patterns. These patterns should be used to distinguish the high and low status between them, but Deng Tao doesn't know which pattern represents a higher status and which pattern represents a lower status.

Brother Zhang found out what Deng Tao was paying attention to, and couldn't help grinning: "Those are knighthood badges, referred to as titles, all officials in the Tang Dynasty have this kind of knighthood badges, and this title is the same as the rank of the military rank."

"The titles of the Tang Dynasty are very finely divided, there are seven orders and twenty-one levels, and those who do not have titles and military ranks must salute those who have titles and military ranks, and those with low ranks must salute and greet those with high ranks, which is written into the laws of Datang."

"Hmph, feudalism." Deng Tao couldn't help but snort.

Brother Zhang, who heard Deng Tao's words, said with a smile: "It's not a feudal system, just like the Wanluo Federal Civil Servant, as long as you become a civil servant, you can have a title, and except for the highest number of titles that can be retained for life, other titles will be canceled after retirement, and the title of Datang cannot be hereditary." Hehe, isn't it very similar to the position system of the Wanluo Federation?

"Also, Datang has specially prepared a kind of honorary title for people who don't want to be officials and foreigners. This title is awarded according to the degree of contribution to the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the fact that there is no salary and power, other treatments are the same as regular titles, you Brother Zhang and I are a little bit behind, you can get the honorary title. Speaking of this, Brother Zhang couldn't help but be triumphant.

Deng Tao didn't pay attention to what Brother Zhang was proud of, he had been pondering the title system of the Tang Dynasty for a long time.

After thinking about it, Deng Tao found that the title of the Tang Dynasty, in addition to being respected, was no different from the position system of Ming Cook politics, and he couldn't help asking: "If it can't be hereditary, won't those nobles of the Tang Dynasty oppose it?" I know that the predecessor of Datang was a family system. ”

Brother Zhang said with a smile: "Hehe, after the title reaches a certain level, you can nominate a person to be an official, this kind of person who is promoted can directly obtain a title one or two levels lower than the person who is promoted, and I don't know how much hardship I don't know if I am a person who climbs up step by step from below."

"And people with knighthoods and military ranks have discounts in many ways, and their salaries are very high, so high that you can't believe it. Besides, how dare those nobles have any opinions, you must know that Tang Long alone has the final say, and those who dare to resist will not be able to see the sun the next day!

"Thinking of this, I can't understand why Tang Long, a good and decent emperor, didn't do it, and went to the Wanluo Federation to be a marshal." When Brother Zhang said this, he couldn't help but look puzzled.

"It turns out that Tang Long is the owner of Datang, and I finally understand why the boss asked me to come to Datang to collect intelligence." Only then did he know who the master of the Tang Dynasty was, Deng Tao, nodded suddenly and stopped talking.

Looking at the image taken by Deng Tao on the screen, Chen Yu didn't wake up until the cigar burned his fingers, he looked at his office blankly, and then sighed deeply.

He came from an intelligence background, and he was able to see the information hidden in it from a simple thing.

Chen Yu didn't look at the military intelligence in the back, not to say that he didn't care about this, even if he cared, he could know that the military intelligence in the back was of little value.

According to Datang's strict spy system, if Deng Tao really found out any useful military information, this information would definitely not be sent back.

Chen Yu has already got the information he wants from the images just now, which can be summarized simply: Datang is rich, Datang attaches importance to business, Datang is strictly hierarchical, Datang has a strict system, and Datang is full of vitality.

Chen Yu stroked the finger that was burned by the cigar just now, sighed and said: "Alas, if you seek skin with the tiger, you can seek skin with the tiger, anyway, in this year, anything can happen." ”

Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Chen Yu's eyes, and he whispered to himself: "However, it is not impossible for salted fish to become live fish. ”

After Chen Yu finished speaking, he got up and pressed a button on the table and said, "Prepare the car, I want to go to the military headquarters." As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu was obviously stunned for a moment, because this scene and this sentence were very familiar to him.

After thinking about it, Chen Yu shook his head and sighed, turned around and left the office.

(To be continued)
