Him and their stars

They resisted for the sake of resistance and revolted for the sake of uprising. However, they soon failed under the powerful suppression of the enemy without any flaws. Isn't this a kind of putschism? Yu Lian couldn't help but think of Teacher Li's evaluation of Comrade Che.

He felt that if he were on the scene in Ice Valley City, he would at least lead a group of capable insurgents and break out as soon as possible. There was no way, with the reaction speed and combat effectiveness of the alliance military, there was only a glimmer of hope if the blockade was not completely completed at the beginning.

To the west of Ice Valley City is the Ariel Plateau, but if you go east and pass through more than 30 kilometers of hilly areas, you can escape into the vast Nivi Forest. It is a subarctic forest with a total area of ​​more than 8 million square kilometers, and it is also the second largest forest in Nefi.

Of course, with the alliance's control over Nephi, a mere thirty kilometers of hilly terrain will turn into a road of death. Even if they manage to escape the encirclement with a narrow escape, they will not be able to survive for long by hiding in the forest and fighting guerrillas, and it is absolutely impossible to encircle the city from the countryside. But no matter what, at least I can live a little longer, and maybe I can leave some seeds of revolution?

Just when he thought of this, he heard Colonel Singer say again: "The Alliance has determined that a group of rebels have left the city and are hiding in the Nivi Forest in the east. If the suspicious element in Boulder is not dead, there will be great dangers. He may be hiding among this rebel army. Once the alliance can wipe out the rebels and capture that person, our suspicion will be cleared."

Oh? Did anyone really escape? Yu Lian couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at those rebels with admiration.

He was almost certain that there must be someone behind the scenes instigating the plot during this period. From a consequentialist perspective, a non-violent strike march that was originally intended for peaceful protest turned into an armed riot. Of course, the person who suffered the most damage was not the coalition government, let alone the capitalists who lost a little bit of factory buildings. On the contrary, it was the iceberg Workers in Gucheng and even the entire Northern Continent Industrial Zone.

There have been too many examples of this in my previous life. For example, before 412, gangsters from the Youth Gang infiltrated among the workers and engaged in various kinds of vandalism, looting, and zero-yuan shopping.

Yu Lian could even guess that when the strike eventually turned into an armed riot out of control, the labor leaders might be even more confused than the government and military police.

But even at this time, there were still people with clear minds and decisive responses who made the most correct choice on the spot. Based on this alone, the future of this rebel army may be worth looking forward to.

...However, even if it is a future that can be expected, it is definitely not a future with bright prospects, right? Yu Lian really couldn't think of any possibility of victory for them.

In comparison, the success rate of the national liberation organizations within the empire may be higher.

At this time, Chief of Staff Mkawa had already said seriously: "What does cleansing mean? This is a frame-up by the alliance. Why do we need to cleanse?"

"Your Majesty is right! The Alliance security department are all shameless bastards! Abnormal children who were fed by Aunt Susan's rotten apple pie! Not only are they bastards and trash, they are simply incombustible! Cows that can't even be washed clean by the water of the Ganges River. You bastard!" Colonel Singer also cursed a few words, but then showed a wry smile: "But it also depends on how the embassy responds, uh, and what the earth says. Your Excellency, this has nothing to do with us. .”

"And we can't control it." Yu Lian added calmly.

Chief of Staff Mkawa sighed heavily, but then said: "Yes, Your Excellency. But it is precisely because we can't control it that we can curse unscrupulously! In the final analysis, we are soldiers, and our duty is only to obey the National Defense Commission and the Military Order Headquarters The order. This kind of diplomatic dispute is nothing more than a matter of conversation after dinner."

Yu Lian glanced at the old chief of staff with interest. For the first time, he discovered that this old-fashioned, rigorous and even micromanaging chief of staff was not as boring as he imagined.

Chief of Staff Mkawa finally sighed and said: "Your Excellency, we should all return to our respective places. There is nothing we can do now except waiting for the next instructions from the Earth."

He paused and then said: "Of course, if the people on Earth were sober enough, they would definitely not give any instructions."

Colonel Singer smiled even brighter: "Your Excellency, I think that the Lords of Earth may not regard this matter as a serious issue for discussion."

He thought for a while and then said: "Of course, it is also possible that he will use the topic to attack political opponents? Hahaha, anyway, I understand the earth's masters, and this is a basic operation."

You yourself are the supervisor sent by the masters of the earth. Is this really okay?

In fact, on Earth, at a routine high-level cabinet meeting, Nephi's issues were indeed brought to the table.

Yes, it is indeed just a regular meeting and not an emergency meeting. Until this time, they didn't think there was anything urgent about this matter.

Request our embassy to accept inquiries? Hahaha, it’s not like the alliance was so overbearing on the first day. Compared with the empire's operation of inspecting foreign embassies due to "fire accidents", the alliance's approach is already very particular.

Therefore, if the Alliance wants an explanation from the embassy, ​​let Ambassador Wilbat explain it well. After all, the Ambassador is an independent woman who married into a wealthy family in the Alliance, and she can be considered a member of the Alliance's upper class. Isn't the reason why I asked her to be the ambassador just because she has a familiar face?

"Okay, everyone, don't go off topic! Don't go off topic! Where did we just talk?" His Excellency President Nikita tapped the pen holder with a ballpoint pen, trying to restore the buzzing and noisy environment in the conference room.

"I was just talking about the Empire's Extreme Berry Pie." Vice President Yellen said quietly next to her.

"Yes. I hate berry pie!" Mr. President quickly turned the page and covered the nut pie he drew in his notebook.

"Before, I was talking about the coir raincoat and rattan bamboo hat, a specialty of the indigenous people of the Jiyuan Star Region. It can protect against cold wind and snow." Edward Shawner, Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, said.

"Yes, Madam, as a folklorist, has collected coir raincoat and rattan bamboo hats from each era." The president neatly stuffed the bamboo hats he folded out of paper into his notebook.

"Before, we were talking about the rebels in the Empire's Jiyuan Sector. They just attacked a tax station yesterday. They killed three tax collectors and six policemen." Chairman Xiaona added.

"...Well, wasn't the inquiry application sent by the alliance what we were discussing at the beginning? Why did it change to this?" the president wondered.

"We were discussing this matter at first, and then we started talking about the security issues in Nephi, and then we mentioned the terrorist attacks in the Imperial Sky," Xiaona said.

"Yes, yes, that's it!" Mr. President slapped the table with a sad and indignant expression on his face: "Everyone, it's only been three years, only three years! The security of the Galaxy has already become like this? Imperial Heaven On the new year when the domain is preparing to host the God of War Festival, there have been so many vicious terrorist attacks. Now that there are rebels in the empire, it cannot but be said that there is no influence in this regard. "

In fact, it has not reached the point where "rebels are rising". Most of the various national liberation organizations can only make some noise in the border star areas, and cannot even threaten large-scale human settlements, let alone penetrate into the core star areas.

"Look at the Alliance. Even the dignified Commander Tatos is missing? Can you imagine?" The president shook his head, showing a sad expression.

"You want to say that the scenery here is the best, right?" Labor Minister Bai Yantang said expressionlessly.

"Yes, yes, that's it... No, Senior Bai is really witty! I mean, because of the development of the New World, the demise of the Snake Organization, and the development opportunities of peace and prosperity are placed in front of all civilizations. But this is the case, saying The uncertainty will bring about a certain period of turmoil. Peace on earth is hard-won now. Everyone must fulfill their duties and safeguard the rights and interests of the people." Mr. President said seriously, and then said sadly: "In short, we must not let the earth appear. Things like Tianyu and Nephi!”

Are you sad as hell? You were gloating all the time, and the smile on your lips never stopped. Don't you have a sense of superiority just because there were vicious incidents in the capitals of the Empire and the Alliance?

Mr. Bai stared at the President very impolitely, without saving any face for him.

Fortunately, everyone present, including the president, was very familiar with Mr. Bai's style and was used to it.

As for President Nishita himself, he certainly cannot stand Mr. Bai's behavior of not saving face for himself. However, he had to admit that without this fierce old man, the efficiency of the cabinet meeting would have been greatly reduced.

No, just look at this fierce old man slamming the table hard and saying loudly: "This is a diplomatic bullying incident! Do you know about diplomatic bullying?"

Facts have proved that a veteran teaching director is still very effective in deterring naughty children. Only then did everyone focus on the original issues to be discussed.

"Yes, we must respond appropriately and must not lose the national character of the Blue Star Community!" President Nishita nodded.

"Yes, we must let the Alliance understand that maintaining the balance of the Dawn Star Territory is the main force of our expedition fleet stationed 2 million light years away. In order to maintain their operations in the New World, 30% of the fiscal year last year and this year was spent Out." Prime Minister Konoe said with a grimace: "Without the loan provided by the alliance, I would not even be able to pay the salary of civil servants. With the attitude of the alliance, does it mean that it will not be prepared to provide loans next year? I can never accept this. kind of thing."

This old politician, who had been the steward of the Community government since the days of the former president, took out his handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and from time to time looked at the Chairman of the National Defense Committee, Maxell, with resentment.

Are you blaming me? However, maintaining a large-scale main fleet in the Dawn Star Territory was approved by a vote of all members. Maxell smiled helplessly and began to think about how to take out the bill hidden in his personal terminal.

Yes, the Military Command Headquarters and the General Staff Headquarters actually formulated a troop withdrawal plan as early as a month ago. However, formulating plans is the business of the military, and it is not the business of politicians to adopt them.

Chairman Maxell said that he really understands these guys very well. At least a month ago, this proposal would have been impossible to pass.

"Yes, we must tell the alliance that the community is their most important ally. They cannot hurt the feelings of their allies so unscrupulously!" Edward Shauna said loudly: "They must understand that if they lose us, the power of the two poles will There will be an imbalance. Even if they lose the Dawn Star Territory, at most a hundred years later, the alliance will lose all its future in the New Continent. We need to make it clear to them that they don’t want to lose all their future in the New Continent, right?”

...Well, actually, there’s no need to say it so intensely. President Nishita thought to himself. Doesn’t this in turn threaten the alliance? This is not good. The alliance cannot withstand the stimulation recently. There was a riot in their capital, their leader was missing after all, and their mental structure was unstable.

Thinking of this, he felt a little ashamed for his gloating just now.

As the new head of the community, Mr. Nihita still had several phone conversations with Commander Tatos across the street. The latter is knowledgeable and elegant in conversation, and he also very warmly invited Nishita to visit the alliance. At first glance, he seems to be a decent gentleman who can get along with him.

However, the life or death of this respectable gentleman was uncertain... Nishita wiped away the non-existent tears and felt that after the meeting, she would have to ask the secretaries to prepare a decent obituary for herself.

Well, let that kid Ming Zhao take charge of the writing. Oops, you must have never seen a perfect secretary who can help you handle official business, act as a bodyguard, speak well, and write well, right? You must not understand such a perfect experience, right?

At this time, Vice President Yellen interjected: "The alliance's request is indeed rude. But no matter what, after all, such a vicious incident happened in Nephi, and we have to make some gestures."

"Posture, what posture? Let the embassy fully cooperate?" Xiaona asked.

"Yes, the posture must be high-profile and our national character must be demonstrated in front of public opinion. However, the actions must be coordinated with their investigations. I believe the gentlemen of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can master this degree." Yellen said.

Shauna sneered inwardly. If you didn't know that you are the nephew of Mao Yuanzuo, the old traitor and loyalist of the empire, but based on these words, I would think that you are more pro-alliance than the president and I.

"Also, what's the name of that one...that's the international student who was said to be an important suspect in the Ice Valley City incident? What's the name of that one?" the vice president asked again.

"Bold?" Shauna said coldly.

"Yes, yes, that's it... No, no, no, I'm not talking about this, but the Lumina man named Babalu."

Don’t you remember it very clearly? the president thought, but still put on a humble face and waited for the words of this very annoying, but must get along with his deputy.

"A Lumina wild...a Lumina worker actually got admitted to Ocean University and became the leader of an international student group. What an inspiring story!"

"What exactly do you want to say? Your Excellency, Vice President. The alliance security department did not include Babaru in the list of suspects, but just asked him to accept some routine questioning." Jessica Edward, sitting at the end of the long table in the conference room The minister asked with a frown.

"The reason why we encountered such an embarrassing diplomatic problem is also related to the student union organization led by this young man from Lumina. Moreover, according to my understanding, before studying abroad, he was a worker at the Red Maple Factory. He is a very restless little guy. So, what role did he play in the riots in Ice Valley City?"

The Vice President tapped the table with his fingers, and before Ms. Jessica opened her mouth to retort, he spoke faster and said: "I personally think that the alliance did not mention it because it was already looking at the face of the allies. Since we want to occupy moral rights To reach a high point, you need to do things beforehand. I suggest that a thorough investigation should be conducted into his background and past..."

He paused, smiled and raised his hand: "Of course, this is an immature suggestion."
