Home System, Federation Star, Endeavour spaceport.

It's a small spaceport, but it has a unique status, as it was the first spaceport built by the Human Federation. More than 4,000 years ago, the spaceport was built shortly after the Human Federation moved into its home system to allow communication with other civilizations. While the Human Federation continued to grow and build other spaceports, Endeavour was retained and became the official spaceport of the Federation.

A small ship slowly approached, it was an armed ship from the colonial system, mottled in appearance and damaged in many places, and it looked like it had just been through a vicious battle. The ship was slow and inflexible, and finally docked to the docks of the spaceport with the help of barges.

This is a ship from the Champagne system, and on board this ship is a representative of the Champagne system resistance.

The Champagne Galaxy is located south of the North 4th Zone, near the Centre. Because there is only one planet suitable for human habitation, and the natural environment is very unique, which is very suitable for growing grapes, for thousands of years, the Champagne system has been the largest grape producing area in the human federal territory, and almost the entire planet is covered by grape plantations and tens of thousands of wineries, and almost all local residents live from it.

Because of its distance from the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, the Champagne Galaxy has not been severely damaged in the last five Greenwich Wars. Even during the Fifth Greenwich War, the Champagne Galaxy was only occupied by the Silicon Charm army. Because they have never conquered the home galaxy and cannot march into the hinterland of the southern alpha galaxy, the Silicon Charm army has not transformed the Champagne galaxy, and it has not caused serious damage.

It's just that in this war, the Champagne galaxy is no longer favored by the god of luck.

A few months ago. That is, after the home system was besieged by the Silicon Charm army, the Champagne galaxy was captured by the enemy and was severely damaged.

The main thing is that the Silicon Charm army that occupied the Champagne system tried to use it as a springboard to enter the central region, and also transformed the environment of the only planet in the Champagne system, the aging star. Although only for a few months. The renovation has not yet been completed, but the aging star has been severely damaged. If it continues for a while, I am afraid that the planet will no longer be suitable for human habitation, let alone return to its original appearance.

Thankfully, the Resistance has recaptured the Champagne system and annihilated the invading enemy. Although the environment has been severely damaged and grapes may no longer be able to be grown, the aging star is still in human hands and is still habitable with proper modifications.

Of course. That's not the point.

It was the Resistance that recaptured the Aged Star and Champagne system, not the army sent by the military headquarters.

In fact, the Champagne system was the first colonial system to be recovered by the Resistance.

What's more, before that, the military department had already sent troops to the Champagne system, to be precise, the Second Legion had already sent a legion to the Champagne system. However, before the legions of the Second Theater arrived, the resistance of the Champagne system annihilated the invading enemy. Subsequently. The Resistance declared an autonomous government, in accordance with the all-out war order issued by the Ministry of War. The self-government of the Champagne system has almost all autonomy. What's worse is that after the arrival of the legions of the Second Theater of Operations, the Champagne Autonomous Government seized these legions on the grounds that they had already gained autonomy, and demanded that the officers and men of these officers obey the orders of the autonomous government unconditionally.

Obviously, the problem is serious.

In fact. This is also self-defeating.

According to the "All-Out War of Resistance Order", local resistance groups can not only form autonomous powers, but also conscript all personnel in their jurisdictions to serve in the army, according to the actual situation, without reporting to the federal authorities. It is clear that the Champagne Autonomous Government used this as an excuse to recruit the legions of the Second Theater of Operations. The question is. These regiments originally belonged to the second theater of operations, not civilians, and it is not clear whether they were within the scope of the call-up or not.

Of course, none of this matters.

If it was just an autonomous government in a colonial galaxy, it would certainly not have the guts to recruit legions in the second theater. To put it bluntly, no matter how powerful the self-government is, it does not have the capital to act against the federal authorities, let alone provoke the second war zone. The point is that there is the Jade family behind the Champagne Galaxy's autonomous government, and the Champagne Galaxy's resistance group was able to annihilate the invading Silicon Charm army because of the support and assistance of the Weaver Legion.

Although the Champagne System Autonomous Authority did not publicly admit it, everyone knew that without the full support of the Jade Family and the Weaver Legion not arriving in time, it would be impossible for the resistance of the Champagne Galaxy alone to defeat the powerful Silicon Charm army, let alone recover the entire Champagne System.

In other words, it is not the Champagne Autonomous Government that is fighting against the federal authorities, but the Jade Family and the Weavers.

In fact, this is also the key to the Champagne Galaxy's autonomous government daring to recruit the legions of the Second War Zone and work against the federal authorities and the military department.

Again, this is the crux of the matter.

Before the ship came to the home system, the military department received the news and took action, but there was no agreement within the military department on how to deal with the incident. Although the nine theater commanders are very clear that they must not condone the seizure of power by the autonomous government of the colonial galaxy, especially against the military department and the federal authorities, if this matter is not handled well, other colonial systems will inevitably follow suit, and the situation will get out of control, but in how to deal with it, especially whether to go out and suppress it, the nine theater commanders are divided into three completely different camps. Obviously, no matter how powerful the military is, it does not have the ability and confidence to be enemies of the Jade family and the Weaver Clan.

It was for this reason that after the Champagne System Autonomous Government declared its autonomy and conscripted the Legions that had already arrived in the Second Theater of Operations in the Champagne System in accordance with the rights granted by the "Total War of Resistance", and then sent troops to blockade the Legion garrison, the War Department did not take immediate action. After the consultation of the nine theater commanders, the military department sent a negotiation signal to the Champagne Autonomous Government through the federal authorities, and asked the Champagne Autonomous Government to send representatives to the home system to negotiate autonomy with the federal authorities. As for how to deal with what has happened, especially the contradictions between the Second Theater of Operations and the autonomous government of the Champagne Galaxy, the military department has not yet made a decision, and it depends on the results of the negotiations.

The question is, will the negotiations be fruitful?

You know, the ten legions sent to the Champagne system by the Second War Zone were all detained, the officers were all held in solitary confinement, and the soldiers were kept in the barracks. Although the Champagne Autonomous Government did not embarrass these officers and soldiers, this situation will not last long, and the situation may deteriorate at any time.

Don't forget, according to the "All-Out War of Resistance Order", the Champagne Autonomous Government is able to deal with those soldiers who are unwilling to listen to its command on the grounds of "refusal to resist the war".

If it really comes to this point, the consequences are unpredictable.

Only now, apart from negotiations, is there any other way?

In the eyes of others, this is just a contradiction between the Champagne Galaxy's autonomous government and the federal authorities, but Zhan Ruilin and the other nine theater commanders know that the real problem is not the autonomous government, but the Jade family, as well as the reinforcements of the Weaver Clan that have arrived, as well as the powerful force that is rising.

Of course, Zhan Ruilin and others also know that the root cause of the problem lies in the military department, and these are all troubles caused by the military department itself.

If the "All-Out War of Resistance Order" had not been issued, there would have been no such thing. Similarly, if you take action earlier, you won't let the Jade family and the Weaver Clan take advantage of it.

The thing is, it's already happening.

What's next?

It is not only the nine bigwigs of the military department who are concerned about this matter, but also the tens of thousands of members of the federal parliament, especially those from the colonial system.

In their opinion, the incident in the Champagne galaxy was just a fuse.

More importantly, in the eyes of these councilors, no matter how this matter ends, the colonial galaxy is the biggest beneficiary, and the situation of the Human Federation will definitely be reshuffled. When this is all over, it would be nice if the Human Federation could remain united and not be torn apart.

It's just that no one complains about anything, at least no one complains that the approach of the autonomous authorities of the Champagne system is too extreme.

Quite simply, before that, the military department missed a lot of opportunities. More importantly, the current situation is the result of the inaction of the military department. If the military department had been more proactive, even when the Silicon Charm army began to withdraw, the current situation would not have arisen.

In addition, no one expects more from the military department.

To put it bluntly, the situation of the nine theaters of confrontation is the key to the huge losses suffered by the Human Federation in this war. If it weren't for the timely arrival of reinforcements from the Weaver Clan, I'm afraid the Human Federation would have been destroyed by the Silicon Charm army. Such a heavy loss did not make the military authorities realize the importance of unity, and after the withdrawal of the enemy, they continued to fight with each other, and none of them took the interests of the whole federation seriously. Not to mention the members of the Federal Assembly from the colonial system, even within the military, there are many officers and soldiers who are dissatisfied with this. If this situation continues, the Human Federation will not want to be the winner of this war, if not if it will not perish.

Clearly, it's time for a change.

If the military department is unable to improve itself and the nine theaters of operations cannot unite, then they can only pin their hopes on some emerging power.

What happened in the Champagne galaxy played a leading role and detonated everyone's dissatisfaction with the military department.

As for the negotiations between the autonomous government of the Champagne galaxy and the federal authorities, no one cares at all, or rather, no one cares about the outcome at all. With the support of the Jade Family and the Weavers, the Champagne Autonomous Government will certainly not easily compromise with the federal authorities. In order to maintain the unity and integrity of the Federation, the federal authorities will inevitably make concessions, and no matter what the nature of the concessions, the autonomy of the Champagne system will become a reality, and other colonial systems will inevitably follow suit. Eventually, most of the colonized systems will gain autonomy. When most of the colonial systems are no longer at the disposal of federal authorities, federal authorities are irrelevant.

Of course, autonomy is one thing, but how to connect the many colonial galaxies is another. (To be continued.) )
