Although in principle, all members of the House of Representatives are eligible to run for Speaker and be elected after obtaining the support of a majority, for thousands of years, the Speaker has been held by members of the top civilizations, and the members of the Thunder Ring, Hidden Spirits, and Weavers are the mainstay. The current speaker is called Alora and is from the Weaver Clan, and was an elder of the Weaver Clan before serving as a councilor, and is a member of the Weaver royal family, and is highly respected in the Weaver Clan.

Of course, she is also a powerful presence.

Because everyone in the venue was suppressed by the energy barrier and could not use their own Origin Energy Converter, Yang Yi was unable to judge Aarora's true strength. It's just that according to Zhuang Shaowei, Aurora originally had the opportunity to become the empress of the Weaver Clan, and she came to the Alliance Star after withdrawing from the throne competition and served as the Weaver Clan's ambassador to the Alliance Star. In terms of seniority, she is also the current empress of the Weaver Star Clan, that is, the aunt of the Empress of the Star Soul. As for her strength, no one dares to doubt it, it can be said that it is unfathomable, and I am afraid that even the Star Soul Empress is slightly inferior. Of course, no one would challenge Aurora to figure out her strength. In the last millennium, not a single challenger has ended well.

In fact, this is the 555th time that Aurora has sat on the Speaker's seat.

According to the rules, the term of office of the Speaker is limited to one year and cannot be renewed. Although the seven top civilizations have long controlled the Alliance Council, this rule has never been broken. Under normal circumstances, it is the members of the Lei Ling Clan, the Hidden Spirit Clan, and the Weaver Clan who take turns to serve as the Speaker. It has been almost 2,000 years since Aurora came to the Alliance, and only during the fourth and fifth Greenwich Wars did she run for Speaker.

Of course, there is no one on the Alliance Star who does not know Alora.

She is known as the "Three Elders" along with Xiu Yi of the Lei Ling Clan and Karen of the Hidden Spirit Clan, and the three of them are also popular candidates for the Speaker of the Alliance Council.

However, this does not mean that there are three people in a nest of snakes and rats.

In fact. Alora, Huey and Cullen have been at odds for a long time, not only do they have no friendship, but they often make trouble over trivial things.

According to Zhuang Shaowei, no one can predict the emotional changes of the three of them.

"Anyway, it's better not to provoke her." Zhuang Shaowei is obviously very unimpressed with this speaker. "Of the three elders, she has the most eccentric temper. Often angry for no reason. Whoever wants to provoke her at this time will definitely not end well. Just last month, the councillor of the Guda tribe visited her, hoping to get the support of the Weavers in opening up a colonized planet, but she blasted her out and almost lost her life. ”

Yang Yi was slightly stunned, and looked at Zhuang Shaowei incomprehensibly.

"The Guda have always been attached to the Weavers, clashing with other civilizations over the development rights of a colonial planet, and the matter has reached the Alliance Council. In fact. It's not a big deal at all. As long as Alora stepped forward and passed a resolution in favor of the Guda, it would be resolved. Zhuang Shaowei pursed his lips and said, "I don't know which tendon is wrong with her, not only did she not support the interests of the Guda people, but also abolished all the bills related to the incident." I heard that it was the Star Soul Empress who came forward in person to quell the Guda Clan's dissatisfaction with the Star Weaver Clan. As for that planet, I heard that it had been destroyed by the Star Soul Empress. There is no planet. There are no conflicts of interest. ”

"Obviously, that's the solution to the problem." Shen Chengwen said.

Zhuang Shaowei smiled bitterly and shook his head. said: "The Guda clan did not continue to pursue this matter, not to say that they were convinced by the way the Star Soul Empress was handled, but that they had no choice. The Guda clan is just an ordinary civilization, and if it loses the support of the Weaver Clan, I am afraid that it will not even be able to keep the native galaxy. ”

"So serious?" Lin Feng was very surprised.

"You think the Galactic Alliance is a mess of harmony?"

Lin Feng frowned and did not answer. Instead, let Zhuang Shaowei continue.

Zhuang Shaowei sighed secretly, feeling that he was starting to talk too much. It's just that the topic has already been opened, and it can't stop there.

For thousands of years, the Galactic Alliance has been a loose civilization, not a monolithic organization.

Of course. During the war, the internal contradictions of the Galactic Alliance were replaced by a powerful external threat, from the seven top civilizations to the lower ones, all united to survive and develop against enemies from the North Alpha system. It's just that in peacetime, that is, when there is no external threat, even the seven top civilizations joining forces cannot fundamentally eliminate internal contradictions.

The reason is simple, the internal contradictions of the Galactic Alliance are essentially the same as the external contradictions.

That is, survival and development.

Whether it is the carbon-based civilization of the Galactic Alliance or the silicon-based civilization of the Silicon Alliance, the top priority is survival and the development carried out in order to survive. Even the seven top civilizations, if they can't get the resources necessary for survival, if they can't develop quickly, they will quickly disappear.

Clearly, survival and development require resources.

In fact, the demand for resources is the fundamental contradiction between the Galactic Alliance and the Silicon Alliance. As for the so-called "essential difference in life" is just a slogan used for propaganda, it is nothing at all. It is precisely because of this that there are such contradictions even within the Galactic Alliance.

That is, in order to survive and develop, the various civilizations of the Galactic Alliance often fight over resources.

Of course, the Human Coming Year Gang is no exception.

Before the Fifth Greenwich War, the Human Federation had fought many wars with neighboring civilizations to colonize the planet, and was almost defeated several times. It wasn't until after the Fifth Greenwich War, after becoming the only remaining civilization in the North Fourth District, that the Human Federation never went to war with other civilizations. Although the resources of the North Fourth Region are not abundant and cannot meet the development needs of the Human Federation permanently, it can be maintained for a long time, and it will take at least thousands of years for the Human Federation to complete the development of all the colonized planets. Obviously, after all the colonized planets in the North Fourth Region are developed, the Human Federation will definitely continue to expand outward.

Something similar is happening elsewhere in the Southern Alpha system.

In fact, when any civilization reaches the limit of its development and has a resource crisis, the only way out is to expand externally.

It is in this way that the Galactic Alliance Council has become an arbiter of the clash of civilizations.

In peacetime, the main task of the Union Council is to resolve the contradictions between civilizations, eliminate conflicts, and allow civilizations to live in peace.

Of course, it is not the persuasion of the parliamentarians that is relied on, but the great strength of the seven top civilizations.

As a result, the more than 100,000 civilizations of the alliance have to rely on a top-level civilization in order to survive and develop.

Without the support of a top-level civilization, even a high-level civilization may not be able to take advantage of a conflict.

In fact, everyone ignores a key factor, that is, the internal contradictions of the Galactic Alliance, which are largely created by the seven top civilizations. To put it more bluntly, the contradiction of competing for resources allows the seven top civilizations to control other civilizations more effectively, so as to control the Galactic Alliance. In addition, the seven top civilizations have the most resources, which is also one of the reasons for the contradictions.

After thousands of years of peaceful development, the internal contradictions of the Galactic Alliance have become more serious.

You know, over the past thousand years, it's not just the Federation of Humans that has developed. Because there is no external invasion, no war, almost all civilizations are developing rapidly. The resulting increase in demand for resources and space has not expanded as a result.

In fact, the internal contradictions of the Galactic Alliance are so serious that they cannot be ignored.

According to Zhuang Shaowei, in the past few years, hundreds of small-scale wars have broken out. Although these wars caused by the lower civilizations were brought under control after the intervention of the seven top civilizations and did not lead to serious disasters, no one can ignore the danger signals sent by these wars. If the situation does not improve, it will not be long before the Galactic Alliance falls apart in the smoke of civil war.

"That's not a bad thing."

Zhuang Shaowei was slightly stunned and looked at Yang Yi.

"Obviously, it's not just us that need resources and space to survive, it's all civilizations. The Southern Alpha System is such a big place, unless a full-scale civil war breaks out, otherwise if you want to get more resources and space, you have to expand outward, and the only direction of expansion is the Northern Alpha System. Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Perhaps, this is the main reason for convening a comprehensive meeting to vote on the war proposal." ”

"The problem is ......"

"Of course, our war with the Silicon Charm Alliance is just a fuse." Yang Yi glanced at Zhuang Shaowei and said, "And we don't have the right to decide, whether to mobilize for war, whether to start a war against the Silicon Charm Alliance, it depends on whether the seven top civilizations are willing to get involved in the war at this time." ”

Zhuang Shaowei nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Yang Yi meant.

"It's just that even the most powerful Lei Ling clan must bow to reality."

"What do you mean?" Lin Feng asked beside him.

"The Sixth Greenwich War has broken out, and the Silicon Charm army has crossed the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and the Green Star of the Dumen has been completely destroyed. Obviously, regardless of whether the Galactic Alliance is monolithic or not, the Silicon Charm Alliance will not withdraw its troops, and will use this opportunity to accelerate the speed. If a civil war breaks out in the Galactic Alliance at this time, even a clash of civilizations between a few civilizations will lead to serious consequences, even total defeat. Yang Yi paused slightly, and then said, "Obviously, the question now is not whether we can defeat the Silicon Charm Alliance, but to prevent the outbreak of civil war." The most effective and easiest way is to deflect the contradictions and let the external threat replace the internal contradictions. ”

Lin Feng nodded thoughtfully, Yang Yi was right.

It was at this time that the ambassador walked over to this side.

The seat is a floating platform capable of accommodating hundreds of people, and although it is not separated by walls, it is divided into more than a dozen areas, large and small. Yang Yi was only an envoy sent by the Human Federation, not a permanent member of the consulate, so he had to stay in the guest area until it was his turn to speak. (To be continued......)
