Chapter 236 Domino Effect

In the Puer sector, Edel, the capital of the Sunflame Empire, is in chaos.

Even the administrative center of the empire could not avoid the domino effect caused by the great defeat of the empire. The soldiers and civilians of Edel, who had already had enough of Lin Bin's iron-blooded rule, took to the streets spontaneously, held demonstrations and sat in, etc. , strongly demanded that Emperor Lin Bin abdicate and change the Riyan Empire back to the original republican constitutional system.

At first, the protests of the people were very restrained. After all, as native Edel people, they did not want their homes to be broken up. However, some people with ulterior motives secretly fueled the flames. The taste changed, and the conflict between the people and the imperial police became more and more intense. Immediately afterwards, "riots" inevitably occurred, and the situation evolved to the end. All kinds of riots and even uprisings occurred in Eder Many towns erupted one after another.

Facing their own fathers and fellow villagers, quite a number of officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army chose to remain silent, and even many officers and soldiers, seeing their relatives and friends involved in the riots, unexpectedly followed them to rise up in a rage.

All of a sudden, this planet, the administrative center of the Riyan Empire, was full of wars, and everything became chaotic.

In the city of Desa, the administrative building of the former fifth war zone has long been converted into an administrative center of the empire. Ten meters deep underground in this administrative center, there is an early Auston left when he ruled the fifth war zone. The base is a secret base, where all the necessary facilities are complete, and the space is large enough to directly station a fully reinforced armored regiment.

Although the chaos around the planet has not spread to Desa for the time being, at this moment, in this secret base, there is a lot of turmoil, and there are three-step, one-post, five-step, and one-post guard marines everywhere. The main roads are guarded nervously, and a large number of chariots and mechas are even deployed at the checkpoints. With such a dense defense, it is estimated that even a fly will not be able to easily fly into the base.

"How is Your Majesty?" In a certain area deep in the base, Zhou Xiang hurriedly came to the door of a separate room with a tired face, and asked a staff adjutant who was guarding the door in a deep voice.

"Back to the general, His Majesty still refuses to let anyone in..." The adjutant took a step forward and reported respectfully with a low sigh. [

"Open the door." Zhou Xiang frowned slightly, and said lightly.

The adjutant hesitated for a moment, turned around and waved to the guard at the door, and the thickened automatic door opened in response. Although His Majesty the Emperor ordered no one to enter, after all, apart from the emperor, the entire empire now probably has only Zhou Xiang. He has the greatest power, and Lin Bin's current state is a bit bad, so this adjutant still violated the emperor's order.

Behind the automatic door is a spacious bedroom. Although it looks quite luxurious, but for some reason, there is only a dim wall lamp lit in the room, making the whole bedroom look abnormally dark, and even slightly eerie.

Stepping up into it, Zhou Xing glanced at the wide dragon bed, but found no trace of Lin Bin except for the messy bed, and his heart skipped a beat. At this moment, a faint burst of water The sound suddenly penetrated into Zhou Xiang's ears, following the sound, Zhou Xiang suddenly saw a bright light shining through the closed door of the restroom in the dormitory.

"Your Majesty." Zhou Xiang hurriedly walked over, and when he opened the door, he saw Lin Bin wearing a nightgown, slumped on the floor by the bathtub, staring at the ceiling.

Hearing the sound, Lin Bin, whose beard and hair were swollen but pale, just turned his head to look at Zhou Xiang blankly, and then stared at the ceiling again to continue his trance. He looked like a patient who was unconscious after being stimulated by the sky.

"Your Majesty, are you... are you alright?" Zhou Xiang couldn't help but sighed slightly, walked carefully beside Lin Bin, squatted down, and asked in a low voice.

"Outside..." Lin Bin still had empty eyes, shook his head numbly, and spit out two unclear words through his dry and cracked lips.

"Outside... Go back to Your Majesty, the situation outside has been brought under control. The imperial army has quelled most of the rebellion and is encircling and suppressing the last handful of rebels." Zhou Xiang originally wanted to report the truth, but on second thought , and couldn't bear to provoke Lin Bin again, so he prevaricated casually.

"Thanks for your hard work." Lin Bin still didn't take a look at Zhou Xiang, and after a few words, he continued to stare blankly at the ceiling.

"Your Majesty, do you want an imperial physician..."

"Go out." Zhou Xiang wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Lin Bin's faint words.

"Zhou Qing, you don't need to come to comfort me anymore." Zhou Xiangnai sighed softly, and when she got up and was about to go out, Lin Bin's strange voice came from behind her again.

"I obey, Your Majesty." Zhou Xiang trembled slightly, only then realized that this young man who built a great empire with his own hands was not as ignorant as he appeared on the surface, and hurriedly turned around to say a respectful word.

"Keep watch carefully. If your majesty makes any mistakes, I will only ask you, the general." He walked out of the room quickly, took a deep breath, said something coldly to the adjutant at the door with a straight face, and then strode forward. walked away aggressively. [

Although in the planetary fortress, Lin Bin was almost beaten to death by Hao Yi, but probably his life was undeserved. A few days later, Lin Bin returned to Edel in a serious physical condition. However, it is unknown whether it was due to overstimulation or other reasons. After waking up, Lin Bin has been in a dazed state.

Due to the death of a group of high-ranking generals of the empire and their defection, there are only a handful of generals on the imperial temple. As the most prominent minister around the emperor, Zhou Xiang naturally took control of the entire imperial political power. At this moment, the Riyan Empire has become a crumbling building full of holes in the shocking wind and rain. If it is not careful, it is very likely that it will be destroyed immediately.

Therefore, at this moment, Zhou Xiang doesn't have any joy in reaching the pinnacle of power, on the contrary, some of them are worried about their own future.

After Lin Bin fell, the iron-blooded army that originally controlled the entire political situation of the empire fell apart. Most of the high-ranking generals in charge of the military, as long as they escaped from the battlefield by chance, they all chose to support their own self-respect, or directly Put up the banner and claim the king.

In the past, the Sun Flame Empire, which looked more glorious on the surface, became completely devastated in just a few days, like a big tree that was rotted and fell down.

Right now, the power that Zhou Xiang can control is the Imperial Guard directly under Lin Bin's orders, and 80.00% of the garrison on the planet Edel. Apart from that, other planets in the empire have already been formed and separated. The control of the central "government" of the empire, as well as the garrisons in various regions.

By the way, the Rangers under Hua Wu's command had already disbanded on their own.

Walking out of the administrative center building, the once bustling and busy streets of the imperial capital outside are now deserted and desolate. A gust of cold wind mixed with a few pieces of shredded paper and garbage blows in, which makes Zhou Xiang subconsciously shiver.

"Go, the first group army headquarters outside the city." He bent down and got into his special car, explained carefully to the adjutant in the front seat, and then leaned on the soft, comfortable and spacious back seat and closed his eyes to rest.

The First Army Group of the Imperial Guard is the only armed force stationed in the empire. At such a delicate juncture, Zhou Xiang must always maintain his control over this armed force. Even if the final outcome is unpredictable, he can only To repay Lin Bin's kindness to him at the beginning is to do his best to fulfill his destiny.

The convoy rolled out of the empty block, went straight out of the imperial capital, and drove onto the high-speed locomotive leading to the military camp outside the city, speeding forward through one ridge after another.

Everything seemed a little too quiet, even Zhou Wei who kept his eyes closed all the time, unconsciously flashed a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

"boom."

When the convoy climbed over a mountain ridge and almost entered a valley, something happened.

The two Hellfire assault vehicles that cleared the way before, seemed to have been run over by a landmine suddenly, were thrown into the air with a loud noise, and smashed heavily into the open space on both sides of the driveway, but the smoke and dust In the midst of the diffuse, there was not a single bit of conventional bombing flames, only two dark figures, and even the "blow-up" assault vehicle did not explode because of this.

"Enemy attack." The convoy stopped in a hurry, and a group of marines rushed out of the armored personnel carrier in a panic. Those two strange black shadows that looked like thick tree trunks slammed into the two armed off-road motorcycles behind them, and there was a sound of metal shattering, and the two motorcycles were actually "caught" by those two thick black shadows Get up, and then throw it hard into the air.

"Spine reptile, I'm fuckin', open fire." The captain of the guard, who recognized the two hideous and terrifying shadows at a glance, was immediately frightened, his face turned pale, he scrambled and hid beside an armored personnel carrier, losing his voice. shouted.

"Da da da, whoosh..." God knows why these two spine reptiles, which usually only appear in the swarm base, suddenly appeared in this valley. The whole valley.

"Shoot..."

"Ow..."

The next moment, pits suddenly exploded on the seemingly calm loess ground on both sides of the locomotive lane, springing insects, cockroaches and hydralisks rushed out like a tide, and the entire convoy was surrounded in an instant. Surrounded by...

After a while, the valley returned to calm again. On the locomotive track less than [-] meters long, there were armored locomotives emitting green smoke everywhere, and there were mutilated corpses of marines everywhere. Of course, many of them were killed The corpse of the Zerg that was smashed to pieces and dripping with colorful and stinky liquid.

With blood on his face, Zhou Xiang sat on the ground and leaned against the smoky car with the overturned hood behind him, holding an empty pistol in his hand, panting heavily and staring coldly not far away, Zergs who stared at him.

On his left leg was a hideous gash with gurgling blood that had been left behind by a springtail, but the hapless springtail didn't fare well either, and ate it in its mouth. Seven or eight high-explosive pistols were blown up all over the place by brain tricks.

Zhou Xiang never dreamed that he would encounter such an army of Zerg here. According to the intelligence of the Imperial Army, the Zerg swarm on the planet Edel had been completely wiped out two years ago, which made him even bigger. What puzzled me was that after killing his guards, the Zergs didn't continue to kill him who was seriously injured. Instead, as if they had received a strange order, they quickly fell to a place tens of meters away. Watching him coldly.

"Your Majesty, it seems that I can no longer be loyal to you." Looking at the Zergs grinning at her in the distance, Zhou Xiang smiled miserably, and took out a piece of glory that had been hidden for many years from the pocket of her military uniform. Calmly tucked into the bin.

However, just when Zhou Xiang was trying to end his own life, a gust of dark wind suddenly came from the open space not far away, and a black shadow in the shape of a human slowly emerged...
