The road to national restoration that began at the end of the century

In short, when the sun still rises on a new day, Zelen, who helps assemble the general-purpose machine gun in the production workshop, has quite a headache.

Because the Blue Wave general-purpose machine gun he needs to assemble in front of him is a machine gun that uses a 100-round ammunition belt. It has a total length of 1066 mm, a barrel length of 558 mm, a theoretical rate of fire of 650 rounds per minute, an empty weight of 10.2 kg, and 800 The effective range is 3,000 meters, and the maximum range is 3,000 meters.

Although it sounds okay, but... the blue wave universal machine gun in front of him is not one of the latest weapons and equipment of the Crurod Empire, but a replica of the same historical model that Paula read in a book before. .

Therefore, Zelen realized the importance of the Golden Moon Party.

At the very least, with the help of former diplomatic experts and excellent profiteers like the Golden Moon Party, does he need to imitate historical relics from a hundred and fifty years ago to prop up the scene?

You must know that twenty years ago, the army of the Krurod Empire was fully equipped with assault rifles and special light machine guns. For this reason, Zelen immediately understood the importance of money and reconsidered the Golden Moon Party's requirements.

So another day passed, and sure enough, the Golden Moon Party still asked Zelen to go to Semeru Island in person. What's more, to the frustration of congressional officials, the leader of the Golden Moon Party made it clear that he was willing to send ships to pick up people.

Envilla: "These guys...can't...haha...it's already this time, what else do they want to do?"

Senagou: "The leader of the Golden Moon Party probably wants His Majesty to go there in person, kneel down in public, and apologize and make amends for the mistakes made by His Majesty the Nether in the past. After all, the Golden Moon Party was defeated by Nether in those days. His Majesty forced us to collect taxes from people all over the country."

Envilla: "So...can't I go down on your Majesty's behalf and kneel down to apologize for my crime?"

Senagu: "Enwela, about this...I..."

Obviously, when faced with the embarrassed expressions of the two congressional officials, Zelen held a stern radio telegram handwritten by the leader of the Golden Moon Party, White Mack, and he knew that his grandfather was really a Offending someone is too harsh.

Zelen: "Tell me, what kind of person is this Mr. Bai? What did he do during my grandfather's time?"

Senagou: "He is a businessman. He used to make a fortune by selling sugar. Later, because of his ability to make money, your Majesty's grandfather, His Majesty Nether, named him and promoted him to become the Minister of Finance at that time. He was specifically responsible for how to increase the tax rate of the empire at that time, thereby increasing the national revenue and providing enough funds for Emperor Nese's offensive plan at that time. As a result, the act of asking for exorbitant taxes from the people made Mike suffer from both sides, so that he later became the first one. He was reviled by the people, and then forced by the assassins sent by His Majesty Neser, and finally participated in my activities at that time. He was also the first minister of the Pa-O Republic to choose to resign in the face of unfavorable war conditions. Officials who take all responsibility and voluntarily go into exile to suffer.”

When Zelen heard this, he couldn't help but cover his face.

Wasn't his grandfather too good at offending ministers? No wonder this Mr. Bai directly became a traitor.

But it has to be said that self-exile... not many officials these days have such feelings to talk about it, or even bear such responsibilities.

no way.

Go ahead.

Since they were willing to send ships over, he naturally didn't have many choices.

Therefore, as an armored transport ship flying the golden moon flag arrived in Sugui City, Zelena had to take Paula and the four of them, as well as a group of officials and entourage, on board the ship to officially go to Semeru Island. .

"Dad, are you really okay with this?"

"Although it has been seventeen years since the incident, or was it eighteen years ago? In short, I still have anger. Even back then, I had shot that old faint gentleman through the abdomen."

"this……"

"I definitely didn't ask him to come here to apologize. I was the one who dragged the corpse of the old fool through the streets. But Clara, as for me... I just want to see that little hero who beat a dozen black-haired kobolds by himself. What does it look like? After all, Sena Gu, who is not afraid of death and is not afraid of how big the trouble is, is so humble. I guess he really has no chance of survival and is forced to find Emperor Zelen's grandson. "

At the same time, on Semeru Island, the leader of the Golden Moon Party, whose full name is Bai Tina Mike, is now a white-haired old man. He has long been a dying old man. Mike no longer has so much hatred for the old fool who died under his own gun, that is, Zelen's grandfather, His Majesty the Emperor of the Crurod Empire before the Paou Republic came to power in the coup, Dai Helena Nether. meaning.

But compared to the past history, Mike looked at Clara who was currently by his side.

This is his last child.

His wife, as well as other children, either died in the coup that year, or died successively in the subsequent response to the invasion of kobolds, pig-headed men, and poisonous lice.

Although these deceased children also left behind some grandchildren, these seventeen years made him feel a certain regret.

What would happen if he just shot and killed the foolish king of Neser, did not listen to Senagu and the others, cleared out the members of the royal family, and then supported a puppet emperor?

Obviously, history did not give him a second chance to choose, let alone a chance to resurrect his children who unfortunately fell on the battlefield. Even if he is willing to take out all the money in his pocket, things have already happened. As a republican general, regicide has brought him a very high reputation, and it has also made him choose to self-exile to an island. As a result, seeds were planted that took root and sprouted.

Although many people tried to persuade him to stay after he left, he did not stay. So now he naturally brought many people to Semeru Island to enjoy the sea breeze, and resisted the invasion of man-eating monsters like poisonous blast lice until the end of his life.

So Mike, an old widower, sat back in his office seat and got a document from his last child, Clara, who was now officially middle-aged.

Mike: "The trade with those point-eared profiteers in the East cannot continue. No matter how rich we are, we cannot continue to let them cheat us."

Clara: "But in this case, we will lose the supply of neutralizing agents to counter genetic mutation bombs. Moreover, we do not have any relatively powerful biological experts to develop this."

Mike: "Ha... It's still our fault that we had a stalemate with the traditional elements of the Green Snake Party and drove them out. If I guessed correctly, His Highness the Emperor's Grandson named Zelen must have someone from the Green Snake Party around him. Member. Moreover, the Green Snake Party must be the first to propose that he can become His Majesty the Emperor.”

Clara: "So do we really want Emperor Zelen's grandson to kneel down?"

Mike: "If it were anyone else, I would have made him kneel down immediately. But this Emperor Zelen's grandson was an innocent victim who suffered long before we took action to launch that coup. What's more, the avalanche incident that year was It's our fault. We thought too much and shouldn't have harmed their mother and son, especially since his father was the crown prince earlier than me and led his own two regicides. Even if it was... Catch them and wait to be used as puppets in the future... Alas! We were too radical at that time and made one wrong step after another. "

As Mike said such words with a dark face, Clara understood what kind of crimes her father had committed as the first official to actively seek help from the black-haired kobold and the mastermind behind the coup. Blunder.

Fundamentally, foreign forces should not interfere in the domestic affairs of the Japanese and Mai people. It is much better to engage in internal fighting behind closed doors than to invite wolves into the house.

Outsiders should not interfere in our own affairs, no matter what conditions they offer that we will not refuse.

At least Clara's brothers and even her children would not die so much, and her colleagues in her own faction would not pay so many lives for this.

Not to mention that the people who followed him to Semeru Island also suffered from the suffering of the end of the century...
