The planning of every war requires a large amount of money as support, and the economic source to support the war is the strong strength of the Empire's First Chamber of Commerce in the commercial field.

"So, the political, economic and military power of the empire are actually in the hands of the Queen alone?" Shi Jin raised his eyebrows slightly.

In ancient feudal societies on earth, there were still some things that restricted imperial power. Who would have thought that this interstellar empire had no checks and balances at all. The queen covered the sky with one hand, and was almost the belief of the entire empire, holding all power.

Jiang Yan said: "This is the case now. The real controller behind the economic lifeline is the Queen. Politically, some people who have opposed some of the Queen's practices in the past are now retired and missing. Since the Queen's accession to the throne, the empire has developed the most. Important things are constantly concentrating on the Queen."

"What about military power?" Shi Jin's eyes flashed: "You have only mentioned economics and politics so far."

The blond boy said: "Do you still remember the rules of the academy? The best graduate among the academy's graduates every year will be personally received by the Queen and given a position in the military to fight on her behalf."

Of course Shi Jin knew that, and the person with the most competitive advantage this year was Xie Yinci.

"Wait, you mean - the military power is replaced by outstanding graduates every year? One person for one year?! Isn't this child's play??" Shi Jin found it incredible that he was commanding the most important army of the empire. Play it like a ball pass!

And it changes every year, does it mean that the expedition battle has to be fought every year? ?
Jiang Yan chuckled, shook his head slightly, and explained: "It's not a change every year, it's just a temporary transfer, but in a sense it is indeed child's play."

"The real military power is in the hands of the commander-in-chief of the empire. The commander-in-chief's official position is below the queen, but in terms of the power he controls, it is on par with the queen, or even enough to surpass the queen. But the queen is very smart. Even before she succeeded to the throne, she had been trying to win over the commander-in-chief, and she introduced a series of policies to facilitate expeditions, which were actually in line with the commander-in-chief's philosophy of using war to promote development. Later, the queen became more important in politics and economy. The power became stronger and stronger, and after the establishment of Victoria College, this regulation was promulgated to fight for her in all directions."

"With the witness of the people of the entire empire, the commander-in-chief was ordered to temporarily transfer military power to the future star of the empire. This provision made all the people of the empire praise the queen's wisdom and praise her greatness. The queen gained a good reputation, which later weakened the commander-in-chief's power over the military. It has absolute control, and it will not directly cause strong dissatisfaction and backlash among the commander-in-chief because of excessive cuts. After all, the time for each temporary transfer will never exceed three months."

"..." Shi Jin said: "So the real purpose of this regulation is to decentralize military power and allow the military to have its own internal checks and balances?"

"Yes."

"It still sounds ridiculous. The commander-in-chief actually agrees?"

Jiang Yan said: "Because he needs policy support and financial support, and the Queen already has these two in her hands, so he has no reason to disagree with the Queen's small move to provide peace of mind. Besides, There will be no big threat to his power."

That said, it seems to make sense at first glance.

"What about those outstanding graduates who fought for her in the past?" Shi Jin asked.

Jiang Yan said: "Some performed really well in the expedition, so they became small commanders in the military headquarters, and then slowly climbed up and gained a place. Some died on the battlefield and were posthumously awarded meritorious services."
