Chapter 88 (I)
As Darrens and Kester clinked glasses to dispel the tension of having just learned a great secret, a hurried phone call began to stir.
Kester pouted and muttered and pressed the answer button, and as soon as it was connected, the voice of the central computer of the Empire, which he had long been tired of hearing, rang out: "Lieutenant General Kester, Lieutenant General Darrens, according to Article 3 of the Emergency Regulations, you have become the supreme military commander of the Silver Eagle Empire, congratulations." ”
Kester and Darrens were stupid on the spot when they heard this, of course they knew what Article 3 of the Emergency Ordinance was, which was used on the battlefield, and when the commander* died, the officer with the highest rank below would automatically become the commander. But his current military position is not the commander of a certain fleet, but the highest military commander of the Silver Eagle Empire. According to this interpretation, it means that all the officers above the rank of imperial general were killed. How could this happen? What is it that will make all the officers above the rank of general die en masse? Could it be that the palace where the body of Arteste was placed was blown up when the officials were mourning, so there was a death of all the high-ranking generals?
Kester hurriedly asked the central computer what was going on, and the reply given by the computer was the same as Kester's thoughts, it was really the officials who were mourning, and the palace was bombed, including the Duke and Earl, all the officials were gasified. When the computer said that the supreme military governor of Yanjing was a lieutenant colonel, and the supreme administrator of Yanjing was the deputy director of the post office, and also reminded the two to arrive in Yanjing as soon as possible to restore order, their hearts jumped suddenly.
Both of them thought that as long as they returned to Yanjing now, the entire Yanjing would be controlled by themselves, and when they went back all the way, they could also use the name of the highest military governor of the empire to collect the troops stationed in each galaxy. When the time comes, with Yanjing in hand and heavy troops in hand, as long as the yellow robe is draped, a new dynasty will immediately appear in this universe!
Darrens's heart began to beat violently when he heard the computer say that he and Kester were the same as the Empire's top military commander. Because he thought that if Kester didn't exist, he would be the only supreme military commander of the empire, and if he had a heavy army, the entire empire would become his own, as long as he was ...... now
Darrens was taken aback by this terrible idea that popped up at his heart, and immediately began to deny it, but as if the devil was calling, the more he denied it, the more he wanted to implement it, because the whole empire was beckoning to him! The light in Darrens' eyes slowly lit up, and Darrens pretended to move behind Kester's back inadvertently, and his right hand slowly touched the pistol on his waist.
Kester felt chills all over his body, and the chill emanating from his heart was already all over his body, all because he saw from the reflection of his wine glass that Darrens's hand was already pressed on the handle of his gun behind him. Kester wanted to look back to see if he was wrong, but the hope of survival kept him from moving, because he was afraid that he would see the pitch-black muzzle of the gun as soon as he turned around.
Kester knew that his friend was ambitious, and he was also ambitious, but he was not so ambitious as to shoot his good friend who stood in his way when he heard that he had the opportunity to get a country. "Is our friendship so shallow that it can't stand the slightest test?" Kester thought sadly in his heart.
Darrens, who had already held the handle of the gun in his right hand, was also swaying, otherwise he would have drawn his gun and fired. He wasn't sure if he really wanted to do it, but he felt the whole empire beckoning to him again, and he bit down, finally sure what he needed, so he controlled his right hand and drew his gun slowly but forcefully.
Kester, who had seen all this from the reflection of the wine glass, closed his eyes in pain, and at this moment Kester no longer had illusions about friendship.
When Darrens was about to pull out all his guns, the voice of the central computer of the empire suddenly sounded and said: "Lieutenant General Kester, Lieutenant General Darrens, the identities of the three princes have been confirmed, according to Article 12 of the imperial law, in an emergency, the princes will automatically become the supreme administrator of the emperor's affairs, and now cancel the appointment of the two just now, sorry." ”
Darrens took a breath and quickly retracted the gun, then turned around and said without daring to look at Kester: "I'm a little tired, I'll go back first." And he left the room. Just now, he had already known from Kester's stiff back that Kester had discovered his intentions, and he left in such a hurry not to dare to face Kester, and also to prevent Kester from killing him in turn.
Kester didn't say anything, just nodded, and of course his movements, Darrens didn't see because he had already left. Kester stood there in a standing position until a message came in: "Sir, Vice Admiral Darrens is leading the 3rd Fleet to move towards Military Star 3. ”
Kester said in a hoarse voice, "I see." When the communication was turned off, Kester poured himself a glass of wine, sat down on the sofa, and smiled bitterly with his glass: "From the moment you left, I knew that we had become enemies, goodbye my friends." As he spoke, he raised his head and drank it all.
Within a few days, the palace of the Silver Eagle Empire was blown to ashes, and all the middle and high-ranking officials of the entire empire died, a large Yanjing only relied on a lieutenant colonel to maintain law and order, and the huge political system was maintained by only a deputy post director, and the news that the three princes had opened their positions and began to seize the throne reached the Wanluo Federation. Chen Yu, who heard the news, jumped on the conference table and cheered regardless of his image, while the officers who were worried on the front line threw their military hats because they could finally go home.
However, the officers were happy for a moment when they received an order for them to scold their mothers, and this order was to let the Federation Army deal a heavy blow to the Emperor [***] entrenched in the Bone Cloud Dragon Galaxy, so that they could retreat to the Empire.
After learning the news of the Empire's civil unrest, the members of the Political Axe's gang who had not been through the war immediately proposed in the council that this was a good time to take the opportunity to recover the Bone Cloud Dragon Galaxy, because the Empire was already in civil strife. As long as the Emperor [***] stationed in the Bone Cloud Dragon System is attacked, he will immediately retreat to the Empire and will no longer be entrenched in the territory of the Federation.
Although Chen Yu and the military generals repeatedly emphasized the interests of the emperor [***] and the exhaustion of the federal army after a long war, the bill was again passed under the opposition of Chen Yu and the military generals. Looking at these parliamentarians who cheered for his victory, Chen Yu secretly hated in his heart, why was he not a talent reader, otherwise he would not have sent soldiers to die in a battle that knew that there was no chance of victory.
Because there is chaos in various places now, those pirates have hindered the communication between various places and the capital, making Chen Yuru, who relies too much on the intelligence system, blind. So at this moment, Chen Yu hadn't noticed that Zhang Husoul used the speech that the parliament was the force that pushed the federation forward, and successfully controlled the entire parliament. At the same time, Chen Yu did not realize that the power of the parliament had slowly infiltrated the military headquarters.
After receiving this order, Weir and Levi were ready to refuse to carry out the order, but Wei Fei dissuaded them, Wei Fei told them: "If you refuse to carry out the order, the military department will remove you from your post and replace you with someone who is willing to carry out the order." More than anyone else, I believe that you will not let the soldiers be wasted. ”
Because of Wei Fei's words, Will and Levy carried out the order, and only 400,000 and scarred warships headed towards the Bone Cloud Dragon Galaxy amid the voices of the soldiers cursing the ancestors of the high-ranking officers of the military department.
Although Kester and Darrens have a rift, the total strength of the Imperial fleet of 140,000 warships, and 40,000 of them are high-level warships, for this kind of enemy who does not know whether to live or die, it is still very easy to teach the enemy a lesson, if it is not for the Federation army to run away as soon as the situation is wrong, and if the two commanders of the emperor [***] are wary of each other, the last bit of the Federation army's belongings will be buried here.
The Union Army, which had suffered minor losses, had just returned, and the order from the military headquarters to demote Wei Fei to lieutenant general and Weir and Levy to major generals arrived. The federal soldiers, who were already very unhappy because of the last order, were immediately in an uproar! The battleship under the command of Mujet was very simple, and after saying a word to the idiot military department, he ran back to the Jiemu Galaxy.
All of a sudden, the Federation lost more than 30,000 of its most elite warships. The officers of the military department who were originally silent because they were afraid of Wei Fei and let the council blindly command them quit, and after Chen Yu knew the news that Mujit's warship ran back to his hometown, he even jumped to his feet in the council and scolded his mother, knowing that it was borrowed with great difficulty, and he actually put it back like this.
The councillors were silent because they didn't dare to do anything to Mujit, and the councillors from the Cleaneye system said that it would be better for the children of their hometown to stay out of danger. The councillors of the other galaxies were so angry that they only glared, but they still didn't dare to do anything, because the unity of the people of the Clean-Eyed Galaxy was notoriously united. Don't look at the fact that dealing with a few councilors of the Clean-Eyed Galaxy is nothing, but behind them are countless Clean-Eyed Galaxymen. I thought I didn't seem to have such a big appeal, so I put up with it.
However, this demotion incident is not over, several major generals who are very prestigious in their hometowns and in the army, under the pretext of going home to fight pirates, with thousands of warships, ran back to their hometowns to occupy the king. The remaining officers and soldiers, although still in the Combined Fleet, went home to rest under various pretexts, and in a matter of moments, the Combined Fleet was seriously understaffed and could not even move all the warships.
The parliamentarians realized that the matter was getting bigger, but in order to save face, they still did not change their demotion order. Instead, he ordered the military headquarters to fight piracy, and at the same time issued a conscription order to the metropolitan area, which was still under federal control. It is ordered that all citizens of the Federation who have reached the age of 18 must join the army, and those who resist to serve in the army will be arrested and transported to military bases for the crime of endangering national security as orderlies!
As soon as this order was given, Chen Yu, who couldn't bear it, and at the same time, in order not to let the people think that this order was given by himself, he immediately threw off his robe and went home to engage in a conspiracy. The parliament wished that Chen Yu would not do it, and they would not recall, because once he was recalled, a new president would be elected, and how could the presidential power be so comfortable to use by himself now, so they only used the excuse that the president was on sick leave, and completely took the presidential power into the hands of the parliament.
When the parliament really grasped the power of the president, it realized how bad the federation was now, and the dignified Wanluo Federation could not get out of the capital area by executive orders, and only a few hundred administrative planets in the capital area could be controlled. Of the 11 galaxies, one was occupied by the Empire, three became the Reis Federation, and two were controlled by Zhang Junlong and Mujette, so what happened to the remaining five galaxies?
Realizing that they still had 5 more galaxies to control, the councillors immediately became excited and began to prepare to deploy troops to eliminate the pirates entrenched in these systems. However, after intelligence investigation, they were alarmed to find that the Shenrai system was occupied by a mysterious force and established a Shenrai Empire. The Wenmin galaxy has been a chaotic and impoverished galaxy since ancient times, and now that the Federation has lost control, it has become a gathering place for pirates. And what about the Four Jupiters and Zola? It's full of all kinds of local forces, all kinds of corporate forces, and even the power of the federal army. Here, each faction occupies several administrative stars, and has already divided the two systems of Simu and Zola into countless large and small spheres of influence. The Federation here refers to the soldiers who, like they did not so long ago, led people to fight pirates, but ran home to become kings.
Looking at it, the councilors finally reluctantly found that they only had the Ute system left to make a certain map, and their excitement had weakened, but they were still able to learn from the staff officers to carry out strategic planning with great interest, but not long after their planning began, a piece of news made them completely lose interest in planning.
This news is that Cammouchi appeared in the Ute system, with 40,000 high-level warships as a strategy, and with the commander of all the Ute systems, he announced the establishment of the Ute Republic. Zhang Junlong, who learned the news, scolded Cam Muqi for being shameless and vicious enough, and stealing all the high-level warships of the Federation. Of course, after Zhang Junlong finished scolding, he no longer paid attention to the new neighbor Cammochi, but concentrated on implementing his plan, because he was already behind the two former colleagues of Moon Reth and Cammuchi.
Moon Reth paid no attention to the outside situation and concentrated on his own domestic production and construction. Dontress had already jumped to the rank of major general and pestered his father all day long to ask when he would ascend the throne, and Moon Tres explained that it had not worked a few times before the time had come, so he couldn't help but send Donterres to patrol the border to prevent pirates from crossing the border and robbing. Dontres, who had tasted the quick promotion in the army, immediately went to work as a border patrol officer with joy.
