The three giants of the empire, including Duke Gregg, sent a group of private armies under their command back to the country to set an example and respond to the call of the empire's New Deal. This made the military reform and political reform in the empire unprecedentedly intense. Under the efficient operation of Robin and the artificial intelligences 'Zeus' and 'Gaia', a series of decrees were quickly implemented. Since then, the cancer of the knightly aristocracy that was parasitic on the big tree of the empire has been completely removed. Under the new system, the empire once again showed a kind of vitality that it had never had before.
At the same time, in the Hercules Arm of the Milky Way, Duke Gregg was openly responding to the call for the New Deal. In the dark, the private army still under his control was like a torrent with an almost predatory attitude. His gesture swept across the member states of the United States of Savoyard, forcibly demolishing all heavy industrial facilities and military equipment, and ensnaring a large number of homeless people from various countries, and began his grand relocation plan. []
During this period, many hard-liners among the knightly nobles who were unwilling to give up their power also gathered under his command, and formed a fleet with a small number of private troops under their command who were willing to be loyal, and jointly participated in this During the brutal plunder.
"Compared to Baron Jais who once presided over this matter, Viscount Reginald, who has recently taken over the affairs related to the relocation, is undoubtedly much more radical. Unlike Baron Jais, who was born as a commoner and was well aware of the sufferings of the people, Viscount Reginald, a distant relative of Duke Greg, had a noble background, which made him, like most nobles, have a natural arrogance. He would not put himself in the shoes of Baron Jais and consider the difficulties faced by civilians during the migration process. In his eyes, the tens of billions of civilians in the United States of Savoy were nothing more than a group of insignificant ants. Therefore, after his overly violent forced migration aroused people's riots, he directly and unabashedly sent troops to carry out bloody suppression. And after completely tearing off his hypocritical disguise, the brutal Reggie Jiu Astronomy captured the image of The civilians who were running around were captured like prey, and they were forcibly imprisoned, put into huge containers, and sent to the transport ship that was about to leave for the extragalactic system.
From a certain perspective, Viscount Reginald's fierce military actions completely destroyed the positive image that Duke Gregg had built over several years, allowing Duke Gregg to completely evolve from a philanthropist with a huge appeal into a philanthropist. Blood demon. But at this point, even Duke Greg himself doesn¡¯t care much.
In his opinion, since he is ready to establish a country in the extragalactic galaxy, he must let these civilians who have been spoiled by democratic politics recognize the reality. So even if he doesn't do this now, in the future, he will definitely tear off his hypocritical mask and force these civilians who are accustomed to democratic politics to accept the tyrannical system of the authoritarian empire. Because of this, there is no need for him to try his best to maintain his positive image. As for the public support he lost during the forced migration, Duke Gregg will definitely have a desire to survive in the harsh environment of the extragalactic galaxy. Can make these ants surrender and surrender under their feet again.
Therefore, with Duke Greg¡¯s acquiescence, Viscount Reginald¡¯s plunder became even more unscrupulous. In just one month the once prosperous United States of Savoy fell into ruins. As the war swept across, a large number of fleeing refugees took advantage of various space shuttles to flee like an overwhelming swarm of locusts. However, only a few wealthy people with deep pockets and large starships were able to escape to other parts of the galaxy. In addition, the vast majority of civilians were captured by the pursuit fleet that came immediately after the fuel of their space shuttles ran out, or died directly in their own space shuttles due to a lack of supplies, becoming nameless people in the universe. dust¡¡
May 2085 Magellanic Cloud Roy Galaxy.
This single star system in the Large Magellanic Cloud was Duke Greg's main stronghold in the extragalactic system of the Large Magellanic Cloud. It was also one of the most important frontier towns in the empire.
but now
Because the aristocratic private armies returned to the empire to reorganize in response to the call of the New Deal, this former military town has begun to show signs of desolation. And with the departure of the last remaining troops belonging to Duke Greg, the door to the Roy system has been completely opened, waiting for the arrival of the new master.
At this moment, in a fortress on the main planet of the Roy galaxy, Wiki Planet, Baron Jaais, who was appointed to perform the handover task, sat alone in the main control room of the fortress, staring blankly at the bright stars in the sky.
As one of Duke Greg's main aides, Baron Jais was transferred away from the center of power due to his political disagreement with Duke Greg, but everything related to what happened in the spiral arm of the Milky Way Galaxy was unknown. It was not hidden from his eyes and ears.
In the past month, Viscount Reginald¡¯s atrocities in the Spiral Arm of Hercules have made him think thatAll the efforts put in were wasted. It is true that Duke Greg's current situation does not allow him to slowly transfer the national power of the United States of Savoy over several years as originally planned. But the losses caused by such fierce military measures will be inestimable. Baron Jais can be sure that the atrocities committed by Viscount Reginald will make all citizens regard Duke Greg as an enemy.
At present, the private army controlled by Duke Greg may still allow him to maintain military deterrence, but these private armies composed of clones will one day return to the empire, and by that time, Greg All that the Duke can really control is a miscellaneous force that was reluctantly assembled by part of the Duke's Guards and the major nobles.
With this weak military force, how can it control billions of people who were forcibly escorted?
Baron Jais believes that with Duke Greg¡¯s intelligence, it¡¯s not that he can¡¯t see the hidden worries in it. However, his obsession with power has led Duke Greg to place all his bets on Dante's mutant bandits. As long as he controls Dante and the blood-eating virus in Dante's body, Duke Gregg believes that he can once again create an army that is only loyal to him. During this period, even if there is a rebellion, , Duke Greg also believed that he could control it.
But after Baron Jais secretly read the transcript of the conversation between Duke Gregg and Huggins, Gregg, he thought that the truth might not be so optimistic.
In the process of reading these conversation records, Baron Jais carefully noticed the information that Huggins Gregg mentioned that there are some p-butterflies in the blood-eating virus.
At that time, Duke Greg did not pay attention to this key message due to his excitement or distrust of his eldest son Huggins and Greg. But Baron Jaice noticed it, which made him start to imagine that if what Huggins Greg said was true, if the popularity of the blood-eating virus really existed, and if Duke Greg couldn't suppress the mutation, Dante, the King of Men, if he cannot build an army loyal to him in the future, then
If all these assumptions come true, then this will definitely be an irreparable disaster.
Without the butcher's knife hanging above their heads, these people who were brought here will be completely out of Duke Greg's control. By that time, Duke Greg will be completely isolated, and if Dante, the king of mutants, makes any changes, the consequences will be unimaginable.
From a poor orphan to a mature imperial baron, Jaice also has an almost fanatical obsession with power. He couldn't bear to lose everything he had gained, nor could he bear to go back to the days when he had lost his authority and had nothing. Because of this, he chose Duke Greg as his camp after Robin issued the new policy as the crown prince, hoping that he could rely on Duke Greg to continue to retain his power. But now, when he was keenly aware of Duke Greg's possible failure and the miserable end he would face after the failure, a trace of regret began to grow in his heart.
¡®Beep! ~.
At this moment, the fortress radar suddenly sounded an alarm, and a soldier responsible for staying behind hurriedly broke into the control room, saluted and reported: "Sir, we have discovered that an unknown fleet has entered the Roy system and is heading towards us. "
Hearing this, Baron Jais immediately stood up from his chair and hurriedly ordered: "Cut the screen over."
"yes¡±
After a while, the picture sent back by the detection satellite was displayed on the three-dimensional screen in the control room.
In the picture, Baron Jaice saw a shabby fleet composed of various starships heading towards the planet Wiki.
After confirming that the other party was not an Insat who had taken advantage of the situation, Baron Jais couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ordered: "Send a message to the other party and ask them to send someone to land to negotiate with me in person."
"Yes." The soldier saluted and turned to leave.
"Wait." But before he could go far, Baron Jais stopped him with twinkling eyes: "Tell the other party that only one space shuttle is allowed to land. Its fleet is not allowed to enter Wikipedia without permission. The atmosphere of the planet. Also, let Dante come and discuss the handover with me in person."
"Okay, sir."
After signaling the soldiers to leave, Baron Jais took a closer look at the tattered fleet, and murmured to himself with a cold face: "Perhaps working with Dante would be a better choice.
