Chapter 425, The Great Spread of the Seven Horse Entente

Those words were indeed said by Gu Hang.

In fact, no matter whether the Fog Horse Star Region, or even the Purple Horse Star Region, the Bian Horse Star Region, and the Iron Horse Star Region will join the Seven Horse Agreement or not, Gu Hang will always have to fight this war.

After all, he can ignore the lives of others, but he can't care about his own lives and deaths.

If you don't guard Steel Wings and Emerald Springs I, the greenskins will swarm from the two northern star sectors. The Alliance will have to abide by the Falceth system and the Flying Wing system.

Then it's better to keep the first two.

What's more, Steel Wing Star was originally a fortress world, and Cuiquan I was also a mining world, so it didn't hurt to break it at all. If he fights in the Flying Wing Star and blows up a cruiser dock, Gu Hang will have no place to cry.

Never let the flames of war reach your own soil.

And since they are going to defend Steel Wing Star and Cuiquan I, not to mention the Hippogriff and Fog Horse themselves, even the four star regions of Purple Horse, Side Horse, Iron Horse, and Ken Horse behind will all benefit from the alliance's military operations and avoid the invasion of Greenskin.

They actually got the benefit, and then they didn't join the Seven Horse Entente, which was tantamount to prostituting the military protection of the alliance for nothing.

Can Gu Hang let people take advantage of this?

The Alliance is not trying to annex you.

In fact, even if they wanted to join the alliance, Gu Hang might not necessarily agree. There are already several worlds in the Hippogriff Star Zone, and they are secretly negotiating with the Alliance, not only signing the Seven Horse Entente, but even wanting to go further and join the Alliance directly.

But he was rejected by Gu Hang.

Didn't say death, but at least the time was not ripe.

On the one hand, it is political and diplomatic influence, and it is easy to swallow it, but when the Seven Horse Concord spreads to other star regions in the future, it will not be easy to do. Originally, those governors and leaders had doubts about this, and if there was another such thing, the difficulty of negotiations would be greatly increased.

In addition, from within the Alliance, joining the Alliance means a major change in the form of government, which means that the Alliance needs to treat its inhabitants as if they were natives. Political reform, economic reform, welfare reform, all these things must be implemented.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be in vain?

Of course, if such a whole set of things continues, the world will be digested by the alliance and become a part of itself. However, digestion takes time, and the upfront one also requires a large investment cost.

The alliance itself has now sounded the three-level mobilization order, and it is already very good for the people's consumption to remain so-so, and a large amount of production has been tilted from civilian materials to military and heavy industry, and the improvement of the people's quality of life has largely stagnated. The production capacity that has been rising step by step is basically in all war-related industries, and the production of civilian vehicles and civilian electrical appliances has decreased a lot.

In this case, it would be a short-term failure for the Alliance to afford to rebuild a world that had been ravaged by war.

Don't do it.

At least until the war is over.

According to the model of the Seven Horse Pact, it is already quite good.

It was an entente that emphasized the concept of a military alliance, which did not interfere in the political and economic development of the signatory planets, but only demanded unity of military command.

In other words, the Alliance will not care about the life of civilians on the planet, how the government is structured, or how the economy develops. The Alliance only had to use the Empire's tax revenues against the Greenskins; Regardless of the fact that the number and quality of the local defense forces reach a certain level, and they are subject to the unified deployment and command of the General Command of the Alliance; Just add a special war tax when necessary.

It's all about fighting.

Fighting the Greenskins is the duty of all governors and leaders, and it makes no sense to rely on the alliance to support it.

Honestly sign me the Seven Horse Agreement.

If you don't sign it, okay, the green skin is blocked by me and can't beat you, the alliance can beat you.

In the past, Gu Hang wanted to deal with a planetary governor or even a star leader outside the star sector, but that would not work. Before engaging in Jedi Saturn, there was still a name for capturing pirates, and he did catch the evidence of the collusion between the Jedi Governor and the pirates, which was disposed of by Gu Hang. But for the sake of this matter, the Kenma Star District has come to negotiate and complain to the Star Domain government.

It doesn't hurt much, but it's still annoying.

But now, it's a different story.

The Star Domain Government Gu Hang was stunned, what else were you afraid of?

In fact, after Yelicia's fleet swept through the thirteen systems of the Fog Horse Sector to ensure that this sector was added to the framework of the Seven Horse Entente, her fleet would continue westward and enter the East Garden III, which was the territory of the Purple Horse Zone.

The Purple Horse has not yet been invaded by the Greenskins, and this star sector has a population of 38 billion, which is the second largest in the Seven Horse Lands after the Pegasus.

The Purple Horse Leader's consistent shirking of the Seven Horse Pact means that the Purple Horse Star Region has been suffering from a serious rebellion. The rebels have even grown to the point of robbing the starports and small shipyards of the Ancient Silver Star.

The rebels' army forces have made them miserable, and the pampering of pirates has also endangered the safety of the Purple Horse Star Zone, so there is really no way to join the Seven Horse Pact and deploy all the forces of the Star Zone to fight the green-skinned orcs.

Yes, Gu Hang accepted their statement.

The combined fleet led by Yelicia, as well as nearly 20 million alliance land, entered the Purple Horse Star Region to help the leader of the Purple Horse put down the rebellion.

Otherwise, after the rebellion of the Purple Horse was put down, the entire Purple Horse Star District signed the Seven Horse Entente.

Otherwise, you are lying and deceiving the Alliance, regardless of the overall situation against the iron-toothed greenskinned star field, the Alliance will come to punish the crime, and then the new leaders and governors should understand the Alliance's good intentions and finally join the framework of the Seven Horse Entente.

Anyway, the Purple Horse Star Zone has the right to choose freely.

They can choose how to join the Seven Horse Entente.

Gu Hang was waiting for good news from the Purple Horse Star Region.

If it really comes to a worse situation, Gu Hang does not want to and will not set off a civil war in the case of unsettled external troubles.

He'd already given Elicia some extra help, and she could learn from some of the methods the Empire would take when it encountered some disobedient, unusable, and non-tax-paying planetary governors.

There is the method of the Imperial Ministry of Justice, and there is the method of the Imperial Inquisition.

These two imperial organizations have full experience in dealing with planetary governors, and Gu Hang feels that they can learn from them.

If the empire encounters a world that does not pay taxes and is dissatisfied with paying taxes, and sends a large army to suppress it, the empire will definitely not be busy.

Too much.

Trials, bribes, assassinations, subversion, coups...... These tactics, combined with small-scale repression, have fostered new spokespersons and interest groups......

It's all a good idea.

And after these things were handed over to Yelicia and the accompanying multi-department alliance officials, Gu Hang himself was busy with another matter.

The bounty points of the Battle of Steel Wing Star were settled for him.

I saw someone asking where the star map came from.

I drew it myself with a PS!

I also thought about using the stars, but I didn't use it, so I just followed the style of the stars and drew it myself.
