Chapter 381: The Empress Asks Politics
Just as the Principality of Starlight was recuperating and digesting and cleaning up its interior, the melee between the countries of the Star Sea was further heating up!
Under the full siege of millions of troops of the Gnaslok Empire, the Tiens Republic lasted less than two months before the capital was captured, the president fled abroad, and a large number of high-ranking officials, including the vice president, were captured alive by the imperial ** regiment, and all of them were secretly hanged!
The first battle was won, and hundreds of star fields were included in the empire's territory! The mighty Imperial Fleet has set its sights on the nearby East Cambodian Federation, which is also a medium-sized power with nearly 100 star fields.
President Werther is an out-and-out hawk who has never had illusions about the Empire! As early as when the Tiens Republic was not yet a dead country, he insisted on forming an alliance with it and sent troops to attack the rear camp of the imperial army. And attracted a lot of small countries to help!
It's a pity that the military power of the first power is not blown out! With Ulionov IV personally on the battlefield to supervise the battle, the military alliance led by two medium-sized countries was not as solid as imagined!
In addition, the intelligence department of the empire is not idle, coercing and luring, sowing discord, infiltrating and dividing! After several rounds of brutal and bloody battles in the underworld, a considerable number of small countries have turned their backs on the alliance and sided with the Empire!
This is also doomed to the tragic ending of many small and medium-sized countries in this starry sky! If there is no powerful third-party force to intervene, it is only a matter of time before the more than 100 countries and organizations in this starry sky are included in the territory of the empire!
At the same time, the high-level leaders of the Rockefeller Empire, which are far away, finally couldn't hold back after many days of weighing and began to send a large army to sweep the surrounding area, paving the way for a full-scale attack on the Black Republic! Nearly sixty percent of the entire empire's forces have been concentrated on the front line of the confrontation between the two sides!
Of course, the top of the republic is not stupid, and immediately made-for-tat measures! Send a large number of fleets to obstruct the actions of the Emperor's ** Regiment! After a series of bloody clashes, the war finally broke out in full force a week ago!
In just one week, more than 400 million officers and soldiers on both sides were killed! The loss of material wealth is innumerable! Both countries have already fought a real fire, and there is no room for relaxation, and the final result can only end in the complete fall of one of them!
The war between the Shalestinian Alliance and the Republic of Surya has long been waged on a large scale! The Alliance Holy War Legion, which was progressing smoothly at the beginning, was ambushed by an unknown powerful force four days ago, the Supreme Commander was assassinated, and dozens of high-ranking clergy were killed, and the losses were extremely heavy! Had to slow down the offensive!
Afterwards, when the alliance's intelligence agencies investigated the cause of the failure, they found traces of the involvement of the Cullinan Organization, and even the Yanyue Organization intervened! This led to the defeat of the Holy War Legion!
The top brass of the Alliance was furious, and the supreme leader of the Alliance, Pope Innocent VI, vowed to let the wrath of the gods consume all the infidels who dared to harm the people of God!
At this time, although the Shuofeng Empire did not have a major military operation, the newly established Twelve Provinces of Southern Xinjiang were also surging at this time, and the momentum of several rebel armies was getting bigger and bigger, echoing each other from afar, and there was a faint trend of joint flow! If it is not dealt with severely, this territory will become a wound on the body of the empire that will not heal! Let the empire continue to bleed!
Twelve provinces, nine of which were obtained from the Xuanluo Federation, and three of which were merged after destroying many of the smaller states in the vicinity! Together, there are close to three hundred star fields, accounting for one-third of the original territory of the empire!
Earning such a large piece of land at once, according to the original intention of the top management of the empire, is to digest it for a year first, and then decide the goal of the next large-scale use of troops depending on the situation around the empire!
coincided with the death of the emperor at this time, Fang Yuqing ascended the throne, and the new round of expansion plan undoubtedly had to be pushed back!
Because Fang Xu had carried out a large-scale purge of the court before his death, and the new empress's own ability was also extremely outstanding! There haven't been too many twists and turns in the country! Since ascending the throne for a year, Fang Yuqing's status and authority have gradually stabilized!
In this way, some forces with dissenting intentions in the dark will not be able to sit still! For example, the six great families, as well as the conservative forces in the royal family! Some organizations that are inextricably linked to the big foreign powers, and so on!
Since it is difficult to start in other aspects, these guys have hit the idea of the newly acquired land of the empire, the twelve provinces of southern Xinjiang! Since this starry sky has only recently been incorporated into the empire's territory, the control of the royal family and the empire is far less tight than that of other lands! It also gives them the opportunity to stir up the wind and rain!
Tianhuaxing, the imperial palace Juntian Palace.
The tall throne was on a high platform in the middle of the main hall, and the young empress turned out from behind the bright yellow jade dragon screen, and slowly approached her seat, her black and white beautiful eyes casually glanced at the bottom of the jade steps, thousands of imperial courtiers had been waiting for a long time!
The Empress sat down calmly, with the confidence and pride of controlling everything on her beautiful face! Despite her youth, no one dared to have any disrespectful thoughts about her! Those who have this heart have paid the price!
Over the year since her accession to the throne, the young woman has repeatedly proved with her own wrists that anyone who tries to influence her established opinions, covets the highest power! No matter who it is, how big a backer there is, there is no possibility of retreating!
"My crown is also dyed red with blood! Under my throne, there are also hundreds of millions of corpses and a sea of blood! When announcing the execution of a group of children of the family who secretly plotted against him, she once said.
After several costly temptations, the forces hidden in the shadows finally understood that the young empress could slash her sword at anyone who dared to provoke her if necessary! to defend your position and power!
After the simple and solemn etiquette of the court, the procedure of the proceedings began.
Minister of War Gurlons reported on the changes and development of the situation in southern Xinjiang during this period of time, as well as the progress of the imperial ** regiment to encircle and suppress the rebels, and finally said: "Your Majesty, the minister still adheres to the previous point of view, the rebellion in the twelve provinces of southern Xinjiang is caused by the secret support of someone behind it!" ”
Prime Minister Chen Yinjie said dissatisfiedly: "Your Excellency Marshal! Your words seem a little alarmist! Now that the Xuanluo Federation is too busy to take care of itself, how can it still have the strength to support the rebels in the Twelve Elements Province? Apart from this big country, there are no decent forces around the southern frontier of the empire! And who will have the strength to support them? ”
"The minister still thinks that the rebellion in southern Xinjiang is caused by the resentment of the aborigines there and their disobedience to the imperial education! A large army should be dispatched to suppress it severely! ”
Gurlons said coldly: "The prime minister means to kill all the aborigines there?" What good can the empire get? A starry sky that looks like a dead field, is this the result you want? ”
"Your Excellency! In the face of the rebellious people who do not submit to the rule of the empire, of course, the only way to suppress them is to use thunderous actions! Do you want to condone them to continue to live and rebel? You've fought all your life, and you won't fail to understand the truth of not being in charge of the army, right? Chen Yinjie smiled and said.
"Rioters? What do you think? Gurlons glanced at him disdainfully, "If I'm not mistaken, in the nearly half a year since taking this starry sky, these aborigines have not had much hostility towards the Emperor ** Regiment!" ”
"At that time, all the newly occupied territories were under the responsibility of the Imperial ** Regiment to maintain daily order and implement military management! It was not until half a year ago that the new administrative area planning was completed, and the Imperial Regiment thus fully transferred the management power to the governors of the provinces appointed by the cabinet! ”
"The dissatisfaction of the aborigines with the empire has been growing since then! How long has it been? Several rebel armies have popped up at once, and they have a huge fleet to rely on! ”
"Your Excellency the Prime Minister, can you tell me why?"
Chen Yinjie's wide and fat fat face twitched slightly, and said disapprehantly: "Why? Of course, it was the dissatisfaction of those people with the Empire! What else could be the reason? ”
Fang Yuqing, who was perched on the throne, said lightly: "What is the reason, now is not the time to pursue this!" I agree with Chen Qing's opinion, for those forces with bad intentions, whether it is rebels or others, they must be killed by thunderous means! ”
Chen Yinjie immediately said: "Yes!" Your Majesty is wise! ”
Gurlons frowned at him, then at the Empress, shook his head and stopped talking.
Fang Yuqing's eyes drifted to Yu Gang, the minister of the Imperial Supervision Yuan, and asked, "Yu Qing, didn't you say last time that there was something important to play?" Now that all the ministers are here, you can talk about it together! ”
The fat prime minister's eyelids jumped, and an ominous premonition rose sharply in his heart!
"Yes! Your Majesty! Yu Gang owed, glanced at the prime minister with eagle-like sharp eyes, and said slowly:
"After the investigation of the ministers and many colleagues in the Supervision Yuan, it has been found that the newly appointed provincial governors Yuan Jinggao, Tu Jun, Ivanovsky, Lei Meng and other four important ministers of the empire have wantonly looted people's property and oppressed and mutilated the local residents after they took office! Related dossier, everyone has a thick big book! ”
"Especially the newly appointed Governor Yuan Jinggao, in just a few months, the wealth accumulated by various means has reached as much as 600 billion yuan crystals! There are also exclusive development rights for dozens of first-class resource planets! In his jurisdiction, almost all eco-planets have more than one luxury villa! Each villa has several unidentified beauties! ”
"That's just the information we have so far! The other governors have more or less some problems! The number of various report letters received by the Supervision Yuan is as high as tens of thousands! Chen is verifying them one by one, and I believe that it won't take long to collect enough evidence! ”
The hall was quiet, and the courtiers present were stunned!
No one would have thought that the governor of the province, who had only been in office for less than half a year, would commit such an astonishing number of major crimes! What's worse is that all the twelve governors have a share, and none of them are clean behind their butts!
The empress's cold voice sounded in the main hall: "If I remember correctly, these twelve governors were all nominated and recommended by Chen Qing, and out of trust in you, I am also approved!" But now ......"
"Can you tell me what's going on?"
Chen Yinjie's face turned pale, and he finally became a little flustered.
