Demonstrations, clashes, confrontations.

Most of the people of the empire did not expect that this kind of scenery, which often appeared in parts of the new federation, would one day be staged in the empire.

The cause of the incident has become very complex, not only the continuous influence of public opinion, the intensification of public sentiment, but also the promotion of relevant organizations behind it......

When a dreadnought, representing the pinnacle of the galaxy's human standing armed forces, arrived at Saka, the territory of the White Ghost, and aimed its main gun at the White Ghost, the emotions of the people of the empire were completely detonated.

The vast empire, with nearly one-fifth of the administrative stars, has seen varying degrees of turmoil in just three galactic hours.

Yahaxing was the first to erupt in solidarity with the White Ghost demonstration.

Three galactic hours have passed, and millions of people have gathered in more than a dozen major cities on Yaha, chanting 'Ghost Innocence' and holding up signs that 'White Ghosts are Messengers of Justice' as they move from one landmark to another.

Among them, the smallest number of 10,000 people have started various forms of live broadcasting.

The demonstrations here were relatively restrained, and people did not smash and loot, but just walked the streets, occupied some public transportation positions, and called for more people to join the queue in solidarity with the white ghost.

Most of the areas where the demonstrations broke out in the empire were relatively peaceful scenes.

The Sherman Empire does not have a tradition of popular demonstrations, but this time, people took to the streets, pushed and guided by some force, to speak out for the white ghosts with their spontaneous actions.

What's even more interesting is the 'self-learning and evolution' of these processions.

I don't know who came up with the idea, but a group of demonstrators entered the spaceport of the planet where they were located, and blocked the various passages of the spaceport with human walls, which successfully made the local government feel the huge pressure.

This way of blocking space traffic can affect the local order, and also make local governments have to stand up and express their appeasement.

Seeing that this worked, more and more parades began to follow suit, and the crowds converged on the planet's spaceport, paralyzing the Empire's passenger routes by five percent, and this number continued to increase as time went on.

This kind of news, no matter who it is or what means it uses, is extremely difficult to suppress.

What's more, at this stage, the empire is building a unified network world by itself, and it can't get the initiative at all.

The sixth galactic time after the start of the Yaha-Star Parade.

The demonstrations in the empire have spread to one-half of the administrative stars in the empire, which should be the most stable imperial circle in the empire, but at the moment it is the 'hardest hit area' with the largest number of marchers.

Some of the fringe planets on the borders of the empire were supposed to be the most conflicted areas, but in reality, a considerable number of planets with a population of more than 300 million people were not able to pull out a parade of more than 100,000 people.

After getting the relevant data, Boss Yang didn't understand it at first, but he quickly figured out the key issues.

- The prosperous planet in the Imperial Star Circle, where the shear pressure within the class is the most obvious, there are many nobles and capitalists, and the youth and student groups gathered from various regions of the empire maintain a high level of mental vitality.

In response to the riots that arose within the empire, the New Federation, the United States of the Liberies, the Güell Alliance, and the little brothers behind the trollists were naturally rejoicing.

A news report began to go viral inside and outside the empire.

This is an article written by a new Federation interstellar correspondent, and the title of the article is very eye-catching.

"The Empire is on the brink of civil war".

The subtitle is more pragmatic:

"The essence of the White Ghost's struggle against the empire is the struggle of the imperial people against the imperial power".

The article sharply points out that the core power group of the empire wants to assimilate the white ghost, and is annoyed and angry after being rejected by the white ghost, so there is a ridiculous scene of the dreadnought gun pointing at Saka.

The article also gives a series of illustrations of how the imperial aristocracy asserted their privileges and the necessity and urgency of their assimilation of the White Ghost.

Incidentally, the article also clearly explains the causes and consequences of the Dominguez tragedy, as well as the miserable slavery life of the Dominguez people in the Empire today, and lists more than a dozen similar tragedies committed by the Empire in the last millennium.

If one reads this article alone, one can probably conclude that the empire is about to break out with a revolution from the bottom up.

Foreign media have already started to celebrate in advance.

And hundreds of billions of people in the empire......

Most people just pay attention to it, and their lives are not affected too much.

According to the law, the empire is generally stable at this stage, and there are no conditions for large-scale uprisings.

The most direct way to meet the most basic conditions for an uprising is to inject a large number of unemployed young people into society.

Just like now, people will be indignant at what happened to the white ghost, complain on the Internet, and scold a few words around their friends about the imperial aristocracy not to die well; But it would be whimsical to get the majority of people to stand up against the Empire and face starships and ion cannons with flesh and blood.

Boss Yang is not in a hurry.

This is just the beginning.

……

One of the meeting rooms in the Stronghold of the Wrath.

Grace sat in front of a projection screen with a sad face, holding a communicator and shouting:

"We must make it clear to the members of the support associations everywhere that demonstrations must not turn into violent conflicts, and we must put an end to smashing, burning, and looting! There must be no crime! That's smearing the white ghost! ”

"Uprising? Righteousness of a fart! Do you think this is a primitive civilization? It's the interstellar age, do you have a fleet? Even though the empire has gone too far this time, everyone's life is not impossible, we just need to support the white ghost, do you understand? ”

"Hey, I'll go, how did I take this task."

Captain Grace wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, turned his head to look at his teammates, and yelled angrily:

"Hurry up! Now you're all official staff of the White Ghost Fan Support Club! Make sure that these messages reach the ears of most white ghost fans! Let the fans of the White Ghost maintain order and not become radicals! ”

"Captain, is this really a mission from the White Ghost?"

"Ah, his assistant commanded," Captain Gris grinned, "don't worry, this is a political game, the two sides are manipulating each other, how can the White Ghost really make the empire really in civil strife?" ”

A group of transformation warriors nodded as if they didn't understand.

"Get to work! Our work now is very meaningful, we must control the extent of the riots! ”

"Captain, are we doing private work?"

"Nope! I received two orders, one from the head of the support club, who is the assistant to the White Ghost, and one from the military department, and both orders were the same content, which was to avoid bloodshed as much as possible. ”

Grace sighed and sighed:

"That's right, let's make a fuss and vent our emotions."

"But captain, there have been casualties on some planets, and some people have begun to besiege the nobles' estates."

"Captain, there has just been news of some minor nobles being attacked by civilians here."

Grace frowned tightly.

The demonstrations in support of the White Ghost were more of a public expression of their support for the White Ghost.

But if the demonstrations gradually turn into violent clashes against the aristocracy, and there are really vicious incidents of the nobles being beaten to death by the people, then the problem is big.

Grace scolded: "What the hell does the Imperial War Department think? Why did you suddenly start forcing the white ghost? Made! If these bastards really cause big trouble, it won't be us unlucky people who will be unlucky in the end! ”

"Captain! There's something new on the live screen of the White Ghost's official website! ”

"What?"

"Well, the Empire has sent another fleet, about two hundred capital ships, to guard the vicinity of the dreadnought, and the dreadnought's main guns have been fully charged."

"The Imperial Military Department is about to hold a press conference in fifteen minutes!"

Grace: ......

"These old things are kicking their brains with bugs?"

A few foul words burst out of Grace's mouth, and none of these young transformation fighters in the conference room dared to answer.

……

Saka Star, outside the Lord's House.

A large number of people arrived here a few galactic hours ago, and they did not make any noise, did not raise any flags, but stood quietly on the street outside the Lord's Mansion, with their backs to the Lord's Mansion, holding hands to form several human walls.

When Saka faced the extinction crisis, the White Ghost never gave up on them.

When the dreadnought aimed at the White Ghost, they were also reluctant to abandon the White Ghost.

Behind the window of the bedroom of the lord's mansion, Yang Wei looked at this scene, and his heart was filled with infinite emotion.

Although these were his plans to challenge the hegemony of the Empire, he was indeed inspired and felt that he was on the right path.

Ritsu's debriefing rang in my ears from time to time.

Most of what Yang Wei heard was some good news.

So far, the best news is that the Sherman family's attempt to activate the Empire's defenses system has been denied access', and the researchers responsible for maintaining the core black box are already sweating profusely at the moment.

Yang Wei looked up at the next room.

Daphne was there, using a set of dedicated encrypted communications equipment, to attend the Sherman family's roundtable.

Yang Wei now wants to know what other tricks these people can come up with.

As long as the Shermans did not go crazy en masse, they would not dare to bombard the Saka Star directly, otherwise the division of the empire would be irreversible;

The Sherman family may feel that tens of millions of people in Saka will be dragged down by his white ghost, but in fact, on the contrary, it actually provides 'political protection' for Yang Wei.

The next room.

Devany was sitting in a gray projection space, her facial expression tense and her fists clenched every now and then.

Apparently, she had heard something that seemed ridiculous to her.

At this meeting, there were indeed many old people from the Sherman family, who were a little emotional.

“…… Trying to crush us with demonstrations? ”

"This is the Empire, not the New Federation!"

"These despicable pariahs have no idea why they are able to survive in the galaxy!"

"Is there any practical point in saying these angry words now? At this moment, we must be vigilant against the possibility of peaceful evolution against us by foreign forces! Especially the two camps of freedom and democracy, they will definitely take advantage of these problems in the current empire to further divide us! ”

"What then? The dreadnought can't scare the white ghost, so we just give in? ”

"Of course not, we don't need to give in, and the disastrous consequences of giving in are far greater than the threat of foreign forces."

"The Imperial Family cannot afford to fail."

The virtual meeting room fell silent.

Director Ino said indifferently: "Are you all six gods without a master?" ”

"Ino, the dreadnought was transferred, what are you going to do next?"

"I'll admit that I did underestimate Hanton's preparation in advance," Director Eno looked at him with a little light in his eyes, "He must have anticipated what kind of methods we would use, and prepared a strategy in advance, which is why we are very passive now." ”

"Give me a solution," Director Ino's grandfather whispered.

Director Ino nodded: "The solution is very simple, directly summon the white ghost and take him away from Saka under the pretext of letting go of the imperial traitor." ”

Immediately objections were raised; "Isn't this a real thing about the empire's persecution of the white ghost?"

Director Ino asked rhetorically, "Is there any practical point in caring about this kind of name and reputation now?" Isn't the attempt of the top brass of the Imperial Military Department to persecute the White Ghost a fact that has been accepted and recognized by the population? ”

A few people were thoughtful.

Director Ino is the color of the road:

"We must not make any concessions, now we and Hanton have reached a critical stage of the game, the people scold and let them scold, their living environment is in our hands, there will be no big chaos.

"The real threat now is Hanton itself.

"He can resurrect indefinitely, which means that he can use this characteristic of his to launch a thousand attacks against us, and if he succeeds once or twice, we will face disaster.

"He himself is a hundred times more harmful than the Valkyrie.

"Don't be intimidated by the march of the people, who have no ships in their hands, no cannons, and who can't even leave the planet they were born on without our permission...... What are you anxious about here? The Sherman family has been in control of this empire for tens of thousands of years, can't they even cope with this little turmoil?

"I suggest that the meeting be adjourned for the time being, instead of discussing how to do it so early, let's finish a set of combination punches first."

An old man asked, "Ino, what's behind your combination boxing?" ”

"The dreadnought lock is the first step, and secretly hyping up the White Ghost has a plan to mind-control His Majesty the Great Emperor, this is the second step...... Next, send a signal of goodwill and ask the Ghost Grand Duke to go to the Emperor Star to explain to His Majesty the reason for letting Catherine go, and see how he responds.

"He's on Saka, we can't open fire, unless you want the empire to fall into a wave of panic among hundreds of millions of people, but as soon as he gets into a ship, we have the initiative.

"Then, we have to come up with two conditions, the first is his home planet, and the second is the video of us defeating a real old god to put pressure on him.

"There is no way to plan the future, we have to formulate a strategy based on his reaction, our purpose is to get him out of the people of the empire, from the popular base, and the rest is a later story."

The group of old men each nodded slowly.

It was from this moment that Director Eno got more family voice.

Ino looked into the corner, "Daphne, what is Handon doing now?" ”

"Read a book, an interstellar adventure."

Devany whispered.
