Chapter 347: Those who dance are all chess pieces
The Universe Network News Agency, abbreviated as UNN, has always been the largest media group in the human society in the Koplu Star District, whether it is the federal era or the imperial era, they are NO•1, and there is no one.
Like many evergreen families, UNN also pays attention to betting on both ends, of course, they are not betting on the official and villain armies in the war, nor on the ruling party and the opposition party, but on gimmicks and truth, gossip and documentary, popcorn works and noble literature.
In the insect raid incident that occurred on Josara, UNN was more realistic. In the words of Kenneth, the leader of the ace production team, "The advantages are huge, and the preparation is sufficient, let's make a shocking show that is enough to go down in history." ”
Kenneth intervened in the war with the idea of making an epic war film, and they followed the Ares Corps to New Wellington.
That's right, instead of Marsala using all Australian place names, Josara uses New Zealand place names from the Earth Age.
At the beginning, the Tyranid Federation was quite nostalgic, and even the flag was strikingly similar to the flag of the Confederate Army during the American Civil War, with a blue background, an oblique cross, and a five-pointed star.
The Ares Corps is not part of the Federal Mobile Fleet named after Greek numerals. It's an old federal Freedom Regiment.
To put it bluntly, it is a private army raised by the founding family. At one time, it was limited in size, with only three battalions of 1,000 men under its command. However, these three battalions are all training battalions composed of backbone cadres, and they can be expanded soon if necessary.
This time, Leon Fawkes, the leader of the young generation of the Fox family and known as a genius military strategist, Sean's second son, Leon Fawkes, was promoted to the rank of major battalion commander at a young age because of his military exploits, and served in the first battalion of the Ares regiment.
After Sean made a deal with Kane this time, the three battalions recruited and trained at the same time, and more than three months later, an independent brigade with the officers and soldiers of the original first battalion as the backbone appeared.
Then, in the name of training troops, exterminating border pirates, and assisting in the capture of the son of Keha, he came to the Sara system.
In fact, people of insight know that the Son of Keha is not active in this area, and if he wants to kill the Son of Khan, go to the Keha system and find trouble with the Keha IV star, in order to cut off the roots of the Son of Keha.
However, there are 6.3 billion people there, and the number of direct deaths exceeded 4 million due to the Federation's irrational use of thousands of Apocalypse-level strategic nuclear bombs (the official Liberty expedition is said to be 35 million, and Keha IV was completely burned glass, which is a more typical place to eat books, otherwise it is impossible to explain the reason why Keha became the capital star and had a large population after Mengsk became emperor, and there is no way to explain that there are still so many humans who died 7% of the total population after the battle of the brood, I'm going to be wiped out and still stay here, for a few?). This act seriously hurt the feelings of the people of Kehaxing and even the other Federation colonies.
Kehaxing is now an ultra-luxury version of Afghanistan, which looks like it is in the hands of the Federation, but in fact, outside the Green Zone, even the dead cannot be found in the capital.
It is no longer possible for the Federation to solve the problem by dropping nuclear bombs, so how can it strengthen its rule in the context of self-directed and self-acting salvation drama, or rather, no alien worms to use as enemies and transfer contradictions and hatred?
In addition to economic control, force is also indispensable. The Alpha Squadron, led by Colonel Edmonddo Duke, is tasked with flexing the muscles of the governments of the frontier colonies, reminding them of the power and authority of the Federation.
In fact, the main existential value of all the mobile fleets of the Federation is this-deterrence, including colonial star governments and space pirates or something.
Leon Fox's Independent Brigade belongs to the Interstellar Marine Corps, and the name is strong in the Continental Army.
The Interstellar Marine Corps is divided into the defense force and the dispatch army, the defense force is stationed in the five main star systems of the Federation, which is the basic disk of the Federation, and the other eight are guarded by the dispatch army.
The Sara system is the most distant of them all.
In the past, being sent here was equivalent to distribution, but this time it has become a sweet and sweet pastry.
Leon was still on the road, and he showed his wisdom and prowess a few times, first commanding Ruoding, and defeating a space pirate army he encountered.
After that, the pirates surrendered to the independent brigade with sensual flattery such as 'encounter with the god of war, cry out in vain'.
Some people from the founding family scoffed: "Sean is really willing to pay for this son." That pirate team is one that they are secretly raising. ”
In any case, Leon Fox's warm-up show is very eye-catching, UNN has done three follow-up reports, plus spending money on publicity, the overall response is good, and it is familiar in front of the general public.
The insect did not live up to Leon's expectations, and he was almost set up when the insect tide occurred. There are not so many perfections in the world, almost a little, Leon is still very confident in himself and his subordinates.
Leon, who was eager to fight a few beautiful victories, did his best at the beginning, and it was indeed majestic.
But the media that created the momentum was not strong, and someone actually played live broadcast to steal his limelight. There are even many viewers who complain that the independent brigade of New Wellington is rotating bugs, and the bugs are turning around people in cities other than New Wellington, which is really playing their own games.
The Fox family secretly put pressure on the remote broadcasting company, and at the same time secretly scolded the people for being difficult to raise, usually watching popcorn movies super hard, but now they don't watch such magnificent and shocking big battles and big productions, but go to watch the survival of Bei Ye at the level of small movies! It's really annoying and hateful.
Max of the Far Broadcasting Company also has a backstage, but he decided to compromise with the Fox family for the time being, and at the same time whet the audience's appetite.
In addition, Oliver's side has entered a relatively flat stage, so it is better to take the opportunity to edit it to make it more enjoyable, you must know that few viewers can watch the whole process, and there is nothing wrong with it.
As a result, Oliver's survival video was temporarily suspended.
Since then, quite a few have turned their attention back to the Independent Brigade in New Wellington.
To be fair, the independent brigade is still fighting well, and the viewing is also better. As for killing chickens with knives, it can also be understood as 'the lion fights the rabbit with all his might', which shows that he did not treat major state affairs with a playful mentality, and at the same time cherished the lives of officers and soldiers.
However, most people already have a preconceived dislike for the Union and the Union Army, and in the face of this situation, the psychology of helping people and sympathizing with the weak makes people choose to criticize the independent brigade for not saving them in the face of death, rather than praising them for their commendable performance on the battlefield.
I have to say that Oliver is not only more down-to-earth in his role, but also because of his danger, wits and courage, and his ability to analyze insects, characteristics, etc., he better captured the hearts of the audience.
Things like setting up ambushes, tricking firepower, and depleting opponents are all things that Oliver pioneered.
On the side of the independent brigade, it was a large group against a large group, with raging artillery fire, fighter bombing, infantry coordination, and even orbital strikes.
Combined, these are indeed much more sophisticated than the old-fashioned tactics of plane combat, but they are also more serious than the slightly more critical audiences think that this is the case.
"It's what it looks like, no points are lost. ”
Compared with each other, the performance of the Independent Brigade is not very pleasing to the audience.
People want to continue to watch Oliver's live broadcast very loudly, and there are more than 100 million text messages urging updates, if it is really Oliver, I am afraid that I will be overwhelmed and flattered by this.
Max, on the other hand, hopes to get more first-hand information. He knew that since this Mr. K had laid the groundwork for the live broadcast early on, he must not have more than Oliver in his hands.
When Kane saw Max take the bait, he said, "I have good news here, and I can sell it to you, but I can complete the previous deal first." ”
Max said: "Don't worry, you are satisfied!"
Saying that, he also gave the sub-shot, Kane took a look, it was the refined gold, a box of 0.5 cubic meters, and the value had exceeded the price negotiated between the two parties.
"How's that? It's hard currency, so you don't have to worry about depreciation. ”
Kane said that it was not bad, but in his heart, he thought that the mining of Dark Gold on Redstone Star and the mining of morphed hydrogen could be put on the preparation agenda. They are all strategic resources, don't be like Renault, when the demand is imminent, you want to find it now.
In fact, neither of them is very needed by his system, because these are the specialties of this universe, just like the strange combat class of the Epbelon World's special psionics, which must first have a material basis, and then have a creature that adapts to the environment and uses the evolutionary embodiment of matter.
In line with the principle that if the enemy is uncomfortable, we will do it, and these two substances can be collected as much as possible. Although the technology of the Aemon series is essentially to use the energy of the void. But there are also problems such as channels, media, and flow, which are stuck in the neck of energy, and he wants to see how Narud and Emon still explode the hybrid body.
Kane not only traded Max, but also Edmundo Duke.
Duke has been quite depressed lately.
Although he had been aboard the NORD II, the basic network of information was still in operation. As a member of the founding family, and is active in the military and political arena, he is not too big, and there are still some people who are optimistic about his future and are willing to invest or run for him, in order to obtain benefits in the future.
This is a very normal phenomenon of human society. After reaching a certain position, he is no longer a person, whether it is a star, a politician, or an officer, there is a team behind him, this team is not a part-time job, but a higher expectation, to put it mildly, without the emperor's order, you can also be a minister from the dragon.
And that's where Duke's irritability comes in. He is 53 years old, but he is still a colonel.
For quite some time, he thought that his failure to climb to a higher position was due to the uproar of the year. Although it has been pressed to the bottom of the box in all directions, the potential impact has always been there, especially in the hearts of those members of the Senate.
In many cases, whether something can succeed or not depends on how many people don't want to see it happen, not how many people are working it. After all, it's always easier to do bad things, like gravitational help.
This time, Duke didn't think so, he had a feeling of being abandoned and wouldn't take him with him anymore.
It's been almost half a year, and no matter how much he is a member of the founding family, the changes have affected all aspects of the Federation, let alone in the circle.
It was as if he had been forgotten, and he had not received any important instructions. His cousin, on the other hand, has been very active in recent months, and he knows that it is the family behind him that is making a big difference.
He didn't know how many damn sentences he cursed to himself, but it didn't work, he was anxious, he was lost, he finally found out that he was not the only choice for the family, and before he knew it, he had been caught up by the rising star of the family.
And when he found out that the original family's resource supply in all aspects was not so taken for granted, he realized that his ability to interpersonal relationships was really mediocre.
In other words, he and the people in the family and the people in the circle are not very good, originally looking at his face as a leader and daring to fight, a general is acquiescing, if he is smart enough, he has a little luck, and he can climb higher.
But since that bad thing happened, everything has changed, and many people think that his ending is nothing more than the arrival of the general and the dignity of the elderly, and he has been given up in advance.
This is actually the reason why Duke betrayed the founding family, including his own, and assisted Arcturus in placing 12 ghost energy launchers in Tasanis, causing the blood of the insects to wash Tasanis.
There is no love and hate for no reason, and the commander who dares to take the lead is not so shameless that he will sacrifice his knees to see anyone. Duke felt that he had been betrayed first, and then he took revenge.
Just like Actulus. 'You burned the glass of Keha with a thousand Apocalypse, and I ate the whole of Tasanis alive with the help of worms!' The only time Arcturus showed his heart was when he succeeded in saying in the immediate moment - either I will rule or see him destroyed.
Just when Duke didn't know how to take a hitchhike due to the lack of intelligence and other surrounding forces, Kane appeared......
