354 Diwei is unresponsive!
After leaving the palace hall, Prince Gehari became a little confused.
Of course, Gehari understood what his father meant.
- Since he caused the matter, then he is responsible for calming it down.
Whether it was the bombardment concert or the targeting of Daphne, it was actually his instruction to the nobles below, and his choice not to admit it in front of his father was also deliberate.
After all, this is an attempted murder.
No matter who he faced, it was impossible for him to admit such a great guilt in person; Leaving this kind of handle will do you more harm than good.
Moreover, Prince Gehari believed that his men had already taken care of the matter, so there was no rush at all now.
In fact, Gehari didn't quite understand why everyone cared so much about the opinions of those civilians.
The army is in the hands of the Imperial Power, they have an invincible fleet, and they also have an empire-wide defense system that can control all the resources of the empire.
The education he received since he was a child is how to be a prince smoothly and comfortably, and the position of emperor that may be touched in the future; Respecting and recognizing the contribution of each nobleman is the most basic "Tips for Being an Emperor".
The process of realizing imperial power did not involve the plebeian class;
The commoners and slaves were ruled by the imperial power and the nobility.
"They've put the cart before the horse," Gerharry muttered quietly.
So, after Prince Gehari bathed and changed his clothes, he patiently selected more than a dozen handsome guards, and simply brought more than 20 sets of dresses that he needed to wear to attend different occasions, as well as some emergency supplies.
With the speed of the Empire's most advanced ships, continuous jumps and straight sailing, the one-way trip to Saka takes only five hours.
However, before Prince Gehari left his palace, the escort sent by the military was already waiting near the palace module in a speedboat, and the supreme commander of the military headquarters stationed in the Imperial Star personally came to the door and begged Gehari to speed up.
Prince Gehari was almost carried directly into the airship by the guards.
The old general was by his side, so that the prince did not get angry.
"What's the hurry?"
Gehari frowned and looked at the old general in front of him, and said slowly:
"My father always taught us to be strategic and methodical, so that we don't make mistakes in our busyness."
The old general smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, the current situation has reached a very urgent moment, and the new federal CIA and the intelligence organizations of various galactic powers are desperately trying to smear us and stir up the emotions of the people in the empire. ”
"That's just a mess outside the country, and we have to be calm."
The old general said in a fixed voice: "They are tearing apart the empire, and now that the wound has appeared, the sooner we stop them, the smaller the wound, the smaller the follow-up impact, and the less pain it will generate!" ”
"Is it necessary to make such a fuss?"
Prince Gehari shook his head and said indifferently: "Our army is invincible. ”
But our soldiers are also civilians.
Of course, the old general didn't dare to say this, but just whispered:
"Three-quarters of the governments in the galaxy today are democratic elections in some form, and we must have a sense of crisis, and popular dissatisfaction with imperial power can easily be visualized in concrete cases.
"With all due respect, are you ready to deal with the White Ghost's troubles?"
"Troubled?" Prince Gehari laughed, "Does he dare to attack me directly?" ”
The old general's throat trembled and looked at Gerharry with a pursed lips.
"Does he dare?" Geharry's smile stiffened a little, "He's not going to do that, is he?" I am the second in line to the throne, the second in line to the throne of the Sherman Empire, and my mother is the current noble family of the Empire. ”
The old general smiled wryly.
Gehari raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows: "Please answer me head-on, he won't attack and hurt me, right?" ”
"Well, please rest assured," the old general said, "I have arranged for Lieutenant General Thomas to wait for you at the front, and when you and Lieutenant General Thomas meet later, please follow Lieutenant General's arrangement regarding security work." Lieutenant General Thomas is an old friend of the White Ghost, they have a good personal relationship, and the military department will do everything in their power to keep your life safe. ”
"Does he really dare to attack me? I am the prince of the empire, the prince who lives in the palace, could he have offended the great Sherman royal family because of an action that was intercepted? ”
The old general turned his head to look out the window, and he had no interest in continuing to chat with the prince.
He suddenly understood.
I understood why such a stupid thing happened as a shelling incident, and why the smiles of those Grand Dukes were so bitter when they found themselves.
……
When Prince Gehari had just left the Imperial Star and arrived on Saka Star five hours away, the news of this desperate blockade had already fallen into the hands of the new Federal CIA.
Mint City, the underground base of the presidential palace, the conference room of the temporary headquarters of the CIA.
Sixteen serving and retired deputy commissioners, along with dozens of hired experts on imperial relations, came together via projection meetings.
Allison also participated in the meeting, representing several of the political bigwigs behind him.
He listened intently to the slightly excited reports of these intelligence officers, but he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
What does a white ghost mean?
Although the CIA is fueling the storm of public opinion and the crisis of trust in the imperial power, the root cause is the white ghost's insistence on pursuing the concert shelling.
From an outsider's point of view, the White Ghost seems to want this to make a big deal out of it.
Of course, Allison is not an expert in conspiracy, and after careful analysis, he came to a more reliable and logical conclusion - the white ghost has been dissatisfied with the great nobility of the empire for a long time since the emperor left the star, and now he is looking for a sense of existence.
This is a common problem for almost every young person.
Allison doesn't, he knows exactly what he wants, he knows the responsibility on his shoulders.
The discussions among these intelligence experts were very efficient.
After all, it was rare for them to have achieved such a huge advantage in the face of the Empire, and this advantage was fleeting.
"The emperor sent his prince, which shows that the emperor has given up the political influence of this prince, according to our understanding of the imperial power system, unless this prince can come up with a perfect way to skillfully resolve this contradiction, he will no longer have any political value."
"The question now is how the White Ghost will respond to this incident."
"There is a high probability that the white ghost will compromise, no matter whether this prince will be forced to move out of the palace afterwards, now he is the second in line to inherit the empire, and he represents the imperial power."
"However, the white ghost scolded the old emperor for being stupid......"
"It was an act under special conditions, and the mastermind of that plan was clearly successful, and he separated the imperial heroes who enjoyed great prestige among the people and the representatives of the imperial power."
"What are we supposed to do?"
"Has Gerharry's personality been analyzed?"
According to reliable intelligence sources, as well as an analysis of the prince's upbringing and daily behavior...... He is proud, elegant, low-eyed, irritable, and moody when the menstrual period comes.
"Based on this, we can conclude that he is a puppet prince, in line with the choice of the Sherman family's elite, and it is easy to be abandoned by the Sherman family, after all, they catch such a fool."
"The White Ghost Will Compromise...... They will meet in about five galactic hours, and if the White Ghost departs from Saka, the time it will take them to meet will probably be shortened to three galactic hours, and we will only have three galactic hours to deal with. ”
"Guys, you have to make a decision."
A group of people fell silent and thought carefully.
A few seconds later, several deputy directors spoke one after another.
Allison listened quietly, not having much of a chance to speak, nor was he prepared to make a point on such an occasion.
In the field of bringing down a powerful empire, these people in front of them are definitely the most professional existences in the galaxy.
And Allison had heard that the CIA was not dead, and it seemed that it was still preparing another plan against the Empire, which was still related to the Space Zerg.
But what does all this have to do with him?
The voices of several old men kept circling in Allison's heart.
'Councillor Allison, do you know why we're giving you so many opportunities? Because you are the forerunner, it is the population replenishment mechanism that the high-dimensional civilization has given to the galactic powers. ’
We will respect your home planet, and we will give you fair, democratic, and free treatment from your home planet, and we have done similar work before. ’
And now, you have to play your prophetic attributes and fight for a higher salary for your home planet, and now it's all in the story of the game called "The Abyss" that you participated in, right? ’
Allison did not hesitate and gave an affirmative answer.
'Will the empire weaken?' ’
'Yes, in the not-too-distant future,' Allison said, 'the white ghost is the key.' ’
He lied.
In the plot of "Abyss" that he experienced, it was the new Federation's insect burial plan that brought down the empire's national power, and a large number of marginal planets of the empire suffered from insect plagues within a few years, and after the insect plague, the selfish and cruel side of the imperial nobles was revealed, and large-scale uprisings broke out in various places, and players in the imperial camp were busy with daily military tasks every day.
And now...... The plan to bury insects has been punctured by the white ghost, and the empire has even completed the expedition, and the equilibrium of the galaxy has not happened.
Allison could only take a gamble.
He cannot afford to lose his value to the power nucleus of the new federation.
As for whether the White Ghost will really bring down the Empire...... He can only pray now.
"The resolution is passed, and the sixth plan will be adopted immediately! Please cheer up, such an opportunity, the Empire's entire territory defense system will not give us a second time! ”
Allison immediately came back to his senses and nodded along with the group.
That sounds like a good plan.
……
In the corner of a hotel near a factory that supplies semi-automatic mechanical guards to the military, a heavy industry base in the empire is urgently repairing the network.
Several shielding lights lit up at the same time, and four women, three men, and seven superalterers sat facing each other.
"This is a good opportunity, Catherine, we can't hesitate any longer, it's a bit vile to say that, but we have to take advantage of the mood of the people."
"But we're not ready, we don't have enough ships and soldiers, our secret base hasn't been fully opened, and it will take some time for the planetary transformation system to be ...... According to our plan, we must have a sufficiently secret hiding place. ”
"There can be no rush," Catherine whispered, "everything should proceed according to our plan, and if we make one wrong step, we will lose everything, and this flame and hope will be meaningless." ”
"At present, if the contradiction is completely ignited, then there will be a more relaxed environment for us."
"The people of the empire have been dissatisfied with the nobility for a long time, you have seen the situation outside the Emperor Star Circle, it is a problem to want to live decently, once the empire's economy is in obvious decline, the Emperor Star Circle will inevitably suck blood from the surrounding planets, the noble class of the empire is not only those nobles with titles, but also these regional resource gathering oppression.
"On these marginal planets, the people who can't afford to leave will be completely reduced to low-level civilians who are no different from slaves.
"Everyone has this sense of crisis, which is why a wave of public opinion of this scale will be formed."
"Didn't you tell us to study the history of the Empire, sir? We have found that whenever there is a great contradiction within the empire, there are generally two situations. ”
Catherine asked, "Which two?" ”
"One is a foreign war, a large-scale and continuous war, the plundering of resources."
"The other situation is the mechanism of the empire's self-innovation, which will kill a group of nobles, release the resources of the nobles, forcibly complete the redistribution of domestic assets, and then wage wars abroad to absorb new vassal states."
Several people fell silent at the same time.
"And we noticed that according to the confidential information we have access to within the Overaltered Organization, these two situations must be carried out smoothly under the auspices of the Empire's entire territorial defense system, otherwise the Empire will not have the ability to mobilize global resources, and the star field across the Empire is too vast." ”
"The Empire's Territorial Defense System," Catherine whispered, "In this case, doesn't the Empire activate this system?" ”
"It's not clear......"
"In short, let's wait and see, and don't take any drastic action," said Catherine, "keep an eye on this factory, this is the core of our future troubles." ”
"Super cyborg people are going to do the Mind Crisis," one laughed, "It's just too exciting." ”
They each chuckled, and Catherine shook her head slightly, but didn't say much.
"Captain, there's a new piece of news that's spreading widely, and according to our intelligence team, it's the CIA's push...... Prince Gehari is about to go to Saka Star, kneel down to the white ghost and admit his mistake, and ask the white ghost to come forward to calm public opinion. ”
"Well, the prince will kneel down to the earl?"
"Really?"
"It is said that it is already on the way, and now the news is everywhere, and everyone is speculating that the mastermind behind the bombardment concert is Prince Geharry, who is worried that Daphne will emerge and become his new competitor, so he also gave the order to kill Daphne in the attack order."
"It doesn't matter if it's true or not," one laughed, "he didn't do it, why did he go to Saka Star?" This basin of dirty water was splashed, whether he wronged this prince or not, he had already been identified. ”
"Public opinion never respects objective facts, only its own emotions."
"The second heir to the imperial power, this target is enough to make people's hearts move."
"Captain, can you influence Mr. White Ghost and make him tougher on this prince, so that this contradiction can tear the imperial class deeper."
Catherine frowned slightly: "Don't bring my personal feelings into our business. ”
"But captain, we have to dedicate everything to this cause, including your feelings."
Several people looked at it at the same time, Catherine pursed her lips slightly, and said in a low voice:
"I'm sorry, I broke up with him before, I thought about what we would do later, it wasn't a good thing for him, and besides, he has helped us a lot, from the last time he rescued us, to the current technical support...... Ladies and gentlemen, we must be principled, and our Organization must be built on fairness and justice. ”
"Yes, Captain, we're too aggressive."
"Don't pay too much attention to what's going on, just keep your eyes on the neighborhood and don't make any mistakes."
"Yes!"
……
After Prince Gehari set off, the third galactic time.
The convoy composed of dozens of warships has escorted the heavy battleship where the prince is located to the star field where Saka Star is located.
Wearing a light blue dress, Gehari was sitting elegantly by the porthole at the moment, frowning at the projection screen in front of him.
Lieutenant General Thomas also had a headache at the moment.
Because he had a good personal relationship with the White Ghost, he was sent to do this apparently thankless job;
Because of the incompetence of the military intelligence bureau of our own side, domestic public opinion is now boiling, but the defense system of the whole territory of the empire has been delayed for a long time.
Thomas clearly felt that he was ...... now It's right next to the crater!
Even, His Royal Highness the Emperor did not realize the seriousness of the matter, and was still dreaming that he could handle this incident perfectly and be appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor.
If you can go back with dignity, that's the biggest victory.
Will Hanton get used to this prince?
Apparently not.
'I have to talk to this prince well, even if I offend this prince, there is nothing I can do. ’
He has several major military exploits, and it will not be so easy for the prince to target him.
Lieutenant General Thomas exhaled slightly: "Your Highness, our highest priority now is to solve the current problem......"
Suddenly, a young school officer rushed over.
"Lieutenant General!"
"Speak."
"White Ghost Live Trailer! He will have an open consultation with the prince who came to Saka about the shelling of the nobles! The Military Intelligence Agency has made an attempt to block the White Ghost live broadcast room, but because it is unable to activate the whole territory defense system, more than 20 cyber attacks from different star fields have appeared abroad, and the Military Intelligence Agency system has been temporarily paralyzed! ”
Lieutenant General Thomas closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Two hours," he whispered, "Hanton gave us two hours, and he used consultation instead of asking for guilt, and he was asking the royal family for an attitude. ”
Geharry sneered, "Ridiculous. ”
Thomas almost turned around and walked away.
