Chapter 996: Twenty-Seven Days!!
"As for your North Tower group, I will try my best to persuade the United Council to give you more support, and I hope that you can seize the opportunity, at least in a short time, to step into the top ten groups of the Apennine Commonwealth. Kenneth sat at his desk, his hands squared on the table, his expression serious.
"Don't worry, Mr. President, I know what you mean, and I'll do my best with them. Bai Liwen said with a stern expression.
As long as he has some identity in the Apennine Consortium, it is not difficult to find that the top ten large groups in the Apennine Consortium have the Apennine Union Bank as the core, the angel enterprises are the leader, and all their bosses are Lordaeron.
Among the top 100 groups, companies with Lordaeron as the boss occupy 60% of the seats, not counting the behind-the-scenes bosses who are not very willing to show their heads.
In addition, in the army, General Lordaeron accounted for 30% of the number.
It's horrible.
It can be said that the people of the Apennine Commonwealth enjoy the freest living environment in the Tiger universe, but it is not 100% free, to be precise, 99% to be exact, and the remaining 1% are imprisoned by the Lordaeron elite, in the Apennines you can point at the president's nose and scold, the president will at most accuse you of personal insult, take it to court, and wait for the verdict.
However, you must not scold the Lordaeron race as a devil, otherwise you will wait for the boss of Lordaeron to be fired and sprayed to death by major information platforms.
This is the current situation of the Apennine Commonwealth, and Kenneth is actively fighting for this one percent of freedom after taking office, at least so that the Apennine Commonwealth can completely free itself from the shackles of the Lordaerons.
This is also the reason for him to meet with the bosses of Bai Liwen and other Apennine enterprises, in an attempt to be able to confront the Lordaerons economically.
Bang!
Just as Kenneth was actively discussing with Bridley. The door to the president's office was rudely pushed open, and two menacing personal bodyguards entered, and then they didn't care about Kenneth at all. Place your hands on your abdomen and stand straight on either side of the doorway.
At the same time, looking outside the door, Green, with a cold face, had already walked into the president's office with the support of Eugene, and none of the president's bodyguards dared to stop him.
"Mr. Green, what are you doing here? This is the president's office, please ......."
"You. Get out!"
Before Bai Liwen finished the following words, Eugene had already pointed a finger at Bai Liwen, and said in a gloomy tone, and in an instant, the entire room was filled with a coercive momentum, which made people breathless.
Seeing Eugene's cold, gloomy gaze, Bai Liwen wanted to speak and stopped. He naturally knew that Eugene's strength in the Apennines, the largest supplier of magic pattern materials in the Apennine Consortium. It is also predetermined, Green's future successor.
Therefore, in the face of Eugene's presumptuous words, Bai Liwen wanted to say something, but he didn't dare, he knew very well what it meant to talk back.
I had no choice but to glance at President Kenneth slightly, and then got up and left in a gloomy manner.
The moment Brivan stepped out of the presidential office, Green's bodyguards closed the room in the presidential office.
"I don't know, since when. When I see you, I need to queue up in advance to make an appointment. Green came to Kenneth's desk and said in a soft tone, but behind this softness, there was a smell of questioning.
"Uh... Old Mr. Green was angry, it was our assistant who was mistaken. Kenneth was unconvinced. But he still put on a respectful appearance.
As the president, he naturally knows how powerful Green is, although he has no military power, and he has no power in the government, but he has extremely strong economic power, as well as the appeal of the Lordaeron race in the Apennines. ...,
"I hope so, but I also know that you have a free heart in your heart, trying to break free from the bondage of the Lordaerons, but until then, I hope that you will fully realize that it is who is the one who has created the current Apennine Commonwealth of glory, and that you must have a conscience and do not kill donkeys. Green suppressed his tone as much as he could, word by word.
When Kenneth heard this, his face changed again and again, and he had the heart to reply, but he still suppressed it, compared to Green, he was not even a grandchild.
And he didn't know what was wrong with this Green, unusually, the whole person looked aggressive.
"I just received the news that Lordaeron's Holy Land Skyrim Province is now on the verge of danger, I hope you can find out the reason and persuade the United Council to send troops to reinforce Skyrim Province, remember, the faster you can do this, the better it will be for you, otherwise, don't blame me for turning his face and not recognizing people. Green was on crutches in one hand, and he tried to suppress his speech as fast as he could, so that every word of his voice reached Kenneth's ears.
"What? Skyrim is in danger? How could I not know?" Kenneth said with a nervous look.
"Now you know. After Green finished speaking, he didn't talk too much nonsense, turned around and walked out directly, and at the same time, the two bodyguards also carefully closed the president's room at this time.
In the same way, the momentum full of coercion is like the sea at low tide, and everything is calm.
But in Kenneth's heart, it still can't be calmed down for a long time, this is the Apennines, and the power of the president has been weakened to the extreme.
If the entire Apennine Consortium is compared to a large company, then the Coalition Parliament is equivalent to the Board of Directors, and the President is at best the General Manager.
The president has power in his hands, but even greater than him is the Apennine constitution.
Who would dare to offend Green? unless you want the economic system of the Apennine Commonwealth to completely collapse in one day, and the Apennines will return to the semi-primitive state before its rise overnight.
In desperation, Kenneth can only go to the United Council to try to convince the Council to give reinforcements to Skyrim, or to interfere with the outside world.
The Apennines United Parliament, each of which is elected by the people, has a total of 387 members, elected entirely by the vote of each constituency, each representing the interests of the voters of the respective constituency.
It was only when Kenneth learned of Kenneth's reinforcement plan for Skyrim that the entire council was locked into a heated discussion.
It can be said that the Apennine Commonwealth is a federation that fully advocates civil rights, and such a system was single-handedly supported by the Lordaeronians, which is conducive to the development of the Lordaeronian Commonwealth in the Apennines, but at this moment, it has become a stumbling block.
The reason is very simple, the more difficult it is for a coalition with more civil rights to launch a large-scale war, because once a large-scale war is launched, it means that voters in this constituency will send their children to the meat grinder of life on the battlefield.
If the people of the constituency do not want to, then the House of Representatives can vote against it.
And right now, it is precisely like this, the House of Representatives is shrewd like monkeys, they understand the current situation, reinforcing the Skyrim Province, it is necessary to cross the New Beba Consortium, or let the fleet go on an ultra-long-distance voyage, enter and bypass the New Beba Consortium, not to mention whether the New Beba Consortium will block it in the middle, once it interferes with the Skyrim Province, it will inevitably have a bad relationship and friction with the Shangbang Zhenyi State, and then make a big move, and the New Beba Consortium may sit idly by and ignore it at that time?
At that time, the eight achievements were to use Skyrim Province as the fuse, and they fell into an interstellar war, and they were out of control.
A large-scale battle, according to the style of the Coalition Parliament, will not easily pass until it is a real threat to the territory of the Commonwealth of the Apennines. ...,
Because war means death, it means attrition, and the lives of the people of the Apennines are completely shattered, which is the last thing the people of the Apennines want to see.
For a time, the entire United Parliament completely exploded, especially the parliamentarians of Lordaeron, as well as the councillors of the constituencies who relied on the Lordaerons to maintain production, supported the Apennine Commonwealth to send troops to aid Skyrim Province, at all costs.
Another group of parliamentarians, such as the main military theater and MPs who don't need Lordaerons too much, objected, in addition to a group of vacillating councillors.
In this way, the argument became more and more intense, and the arguments gave the impression that it was like the members of the Funeral Order arguing in the Hall of King David.
It took six hours for the council to give a credible solution, that is, to use the humane charter of the Tiger universe to restrain the Chiyi Commonwealth, and in addition, the president launched foreign affairs negotiations with the New Bayba Commonwealth to save Skyrim from disaster.
At the same time, the head of foreign affairs of the Apennine Consortium and the military immediately demanded that the Chiyi Consortium open up information on the Tianji Province.
It can be said that this is also the most in line with the interests of the Apennine Commonwealth at the moment, but by doing so, it also shows that the Apennine Commonwealth Commonwealth official's help to Skyrim Province is not selfless and all-out, but to consider itself first.
At this moment, located in Tianji Province, Xiao Hong is standing on the seashore of the Lysjia Inland Sea, alone, quietly looking up, looking at the blue sky, with white hair, extremely scattered, and the beard at the corner of his mouth is almost half a centimeter.
Nearly a month has passed since Xiao Hong sent out a long-distance missile, but there is no news at all.
Did they not receive it, or did they encounter some problems? Xiao Hong muttered to himself in his heart, now Xiao Hong really really wants to see a large number of demonic warships of the Gadu Empire appear in the sky, and the Apennines are fine, in short, not the Shangbang Zhenyi Kingdom.
It's just that in the sky, it's still calm, which can't help but make Xiao Hong's throat feel a little bitter, Xiao Hong really feels very tired now, very tired.
At this moment, Lei Jie had already walked out of the naval base, stood quietly beside Xiao Hong, and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Boss, it has been twenty-seven days since the long-distance missile was launched. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
