Chapter 176 Calm Madness

When Anatoly woke up, he vaguely saw someone sitting beside his bed with black hair, and blurted out: "Flower among flowers?"

Shao Jun lowered his head to see his situation: "I'm Du Yin, do you want to see Feng Shao?"

Anatoly smiled awkwardly: "It's okay, thank you for coming to rescue me this time."

Shao Jun said: "You're welcome, we were late. It took Hua Jianfeng a lot of trouble to find out the exact place where you are being held. Are you in good health?"

Anatoly sat up reluctantly, trying to make himself less embarrassing and weak, but was held down by Shao Jun: "Lie down, you will be in the Principality of Hawke in a while, and you will be safe by then, the Alliance Marshal should know by now You were rescued, so you have to figure out what to do next."

Anatoly showed a ferocious smile: "I will thank the marshal for his 'hospitality' during this time."

Shao Jun was silent for a while and asked, "Your Excellency, I would like to get your opinion on something."

Anatoly was startled: "Please tell me." He felt that the question asked by this always silent but reliable person was serious, so he also became serious.

Shao Jun asked: "Based on Xia Ke's current situation, if I want to promote him to the position of Marshal of the Alliance as soon as possible, what kind of conditions do I need, that is, what do I need to do to achieve it?

Anatoly's face became serious: "It's difficult, his qualifications in the army are actually insufficient. Although his military achievements are dazzling, the Alliance Marshal involves too many interest groups after all."

Shao Jun said: "Even if the current marshal of the alliance has been overthrown by scandal and by countless people?"

Anatoly said: "The various interest groups will choose another more suitable spokesperson. Of course, I can choose Xia as the spokesperson, but the chances of winning are not high. You need to know how many countries there are in the alliance! The alliance is too big! I can't manipulate the parliamentary elections There are too many, and the regimes of all parties are very complicated. General Okata is actually more suitable than him. His foundation is too shallow, and he is still a black family. The regimes of all parties cannot trust him. He is indeed first-class in war, but his aura is also His burden, a person with a perfect and noble personality, will it be difficult to cooperate and win, will it be too inflexible? A politician who is mellow, able to give up principles for the sake of interests, and can balance the interests of all parties , is what people need.”

Shao Jun continued to ask: "Even with the support of you and the Huajian family, with new energy in hand, and huge political donations?"

Anatoly said: "Political donations are of little significance to military positions, and reputation among the people is not a decisive factor. Military achievements are not useful in peacetime, not to mention that the Zerg has been controlled now. New energy, you Just look at my lessons this time. As long as you are labeled as a monopoly on energy, all human beings will kidnap you morally. I can only say that this time it is me - rich, military, noble personality, and selfless character. None of them are necessary political qualities for an alliance marshal, do you understand me when I say that?"

Shao Jun nodded: "Even if he has high prestige and influence in the coalition army, most army commanders are willing to obey his command?"

Anatoly raised his eyebrows: "It's hard to do, the alliance is too big. First of all, the human coalition against the Zerg is not an alliance. You will rush to jump out, and then you will find that in the most difficult time of the war, the generals who have no sense of existence suddenly come out to stand in front of you. This is disgusting politics, even I I can't guarantee that I can push him to the top. You know, it's not easy to accomplish a thing, but it's much easier to break a thing. You only need to constantly slander, slander, destroy, or even just need to be neutral. You can't get elected."

Shao Jun was thoughtful: "That is to say, according to the normal way, it is difficult for him to be the marshal of the alliance?"

Anatoly said: "Yes, the alliance is a relatively tight political system. This is an alliance of many countries. It cannot be said that there is no hope. If the war continues for another ten years, when everyone is exhausted, the alliance marshal will be scandalized again. When Tang Shang had to take the blame and resign, his qualifications and accumulation should be enough."

Shao Jun nodded: "I see."

Anatole inexplicably felt an ominous premonition: "What do you want to do?"

Shao Jun, however, changed the topic: "Recently, we have developed a Skynet access cabin that reduces the requirement for mental power access. When the access module is put into the market, AG will usher in a large amount of profit, I suggest that you invest in a few good Skynet games now, and you should get rich returns by then."

Anatoly shook his head: "Don't change the subject, Duin, tell me, you won't drag humans back into the quagmire with the Zerg for Xia, will you? This is different, tell me you won't." He He looked up and saw that Hua Jianfeng had pushed the dining car into the room at some time, and his face was obviously a little dignified.

Shao Jun was startled: "Why do you think that I will do and have the ability to do such a thing?"

Anatoly shook his head and sighed: "Of course I have always trusted your character, but I think you can break the principle for Xia. You treat him differently. Have you not realized it yet? I understand your feelings, you I hope that he will stand at the pinnacle of power and stop being so aggrieved. He is obviously talented, but he is always suppressed and murdered by villains. I also hope that the alliance marshal will be brought down as soon as possible, but you have to understand that there is this decadent alliance system first. There are all kinds of interest groups first, and then an unscrupulous person like the Marshal of the Alliance is born, and it is even very likely that when Xia steps into that position one day, he will gradually become such a person."

He was a little incoherent, and he didn't even organize the language completely. He seemed to be standing on a high-speed train. If he was not careful, the train would go on a track that was too terrifying for human beings, and no one could stop it.He has been with this taciturn and unobtrusive black-haired and black-eyed person for many years, but he still can't communicate with him, but he knows how terrifying the ability is in this person, and he may not even realize it To his ability to influence the world like this.

His amber eyes fixed on Shao Jun: "So can you tell me, would you do this? For Xia?"

Shao Jun raised his eyes and looked at him for a while: "No."

Anatoly and Huajianfeng both heaved a sigh of relief, Huajianfeng didn't say a word, but just opened the dining car, and there was a rich and nutritious breakfast on it.

Anatole didn't eat, but stretched out his hand to hold Shao Jun's hand, and said earnestly: "Du Yin, I hope you have any plans and what you plan to do next, and you can tell me frankly, I will do everything I can To support you and Xia's."

Shao Jun looked up at him, hesitated to speak, Anatole said sincerely: "You saved me just now, can you still not trust me?"

Shao Jun shook his head: "No, it's just that I haven't thought it through yet. Let me just say that if there is anything wrong, please correct me."

Anatoly and Hua Jianfeng looked at each other and said, "Please tell me."

Shao Jun said: "I have heard a saying before, it is called, the general trend of the world, if it is united for a long time, it will be divided, and if it is divided for a long time, it will be united."

He raised his eyes and looked at Anatoly, who didn't quite understand what he meant: "So I don't understand. We have clearly mastered wealth, a powerful army, talents, advanced military technology, and energy. Why can't we still be the ones who make the rules, but obey other people's so-called rules?"

"You also said that the alliance is too big and too corrupt. According to the normal promotion, an outstanding military general like Shake, obviously has outstanding military achievements. He has made a lot of contributions to mankind in the war against the Zerg. , selfless, and capable, but cannot be the marshal of the alliance, because we need to obey their rules and satisfy their interests in order to be the person they choose. Interests, the spokesperson and puppet who balance the interests of all parties, and finally degenerated into the same person as the Marshal of the Alliance today."

"But, was the alliance like this from the beginning? Didn't the alliance exist all the time? Was the alliance so strong from the beginning? Was the alliance also sticking to the rules at the beginning, and then became the hard-won, corrupt and solidified today? I Believe that those strong men who formed the alliance at the beginning, at least have the good wish to fight against the empire, build and protect a free, democratic, and equal world? Is the current alliance the same as the previous alliance? The commander of the alliance hatched insect eggs for personal benefit and dragged mankind into war, while countless interest groups acquiesced, condoned and even encouraged this behavior for their own benefit. Is this the alliance that the people of the alliance want to see today? ?"

Anatoly's breathing was slightly rapid: "You mean..."

Shao Jun was straightforward: "The Principality of Hawke broke away from the Western Continental Union Republic, became independent and established a new political system, and it can be changed to any other name. Hawke Federation, Hawke Economic Community, since we are not allowed to participate in the dinner table, why not open it?" Another table?"

Anatoly's eyes widened: "Separate from the Union Community! This means that we will become enemies of the Union! All Union countries will impose economic and military sanctions on us! Are you crazy? Only the Empire can compete with the Union, If we break away from the Alliance, all the nations of the Alliance will stand by while the Empire attacks us!"

Shao Jun said indifferently: "Will the empire really attack you? Or will it fuel the fire first and try to make the remaining alliance continue to split? When the entire alliance is fragmented, the empire will have an advantage on Blue Star."

"Now is the best time. You have been detained innocently by the Alliance Marshal. At present, all countries in the Alliance sympathize with you. When we throw out Master Gerry and announce the crime of the Alliance Marshal taming the Zerg to the world, we will take the name of righteousness." , It is justifiable to leave the alliance. It is only for self-interest, taming the Zerg, and artificially prolonging the war. As long as the alliance is controlled by these corrupt people who only fight for power and profit, it will always be like this. The original intention of democracy, freedom, and peace. The establishment of the new alliance can free mankind from the current quagmire and restore peace as soon as possible."

Hua Jianfeng finally spoke: "What if the empire takes this opportunity to annex Hawke? Also, the only political system that resists the empire is fragmented, the empire grows, and in the future it will invade the alliance in turn, and the democracy of the entire human world will regress. Will we become human beings? sinner?"

Shao Jun said indifferently: "The empire can't take care of itself. After fighting for so long, the empire is also facing the crisis of civil war and uprisings. The three princes are fighting for power. They don't have time to take the lead in attacking. We have the two strongest legions! We also have energy , really fight us, can they win? If they fail to win, the power they have already obtained will change hands. No matter which side of the empire wins power, it will definitely maintain a good relationship with us first! And we still have With new energy sources, don’t forget that the empire has been able to maintain the imperial system for many years, relying on the monopoly of gold and tin energy. Now that this monopoly is about to be broken, can the empire continue to maintain the imperial system? Can they remain as a monolith after years of war? They will inevitably be chaotic, and Ke Ji is getting old."

Anatoly and Hua Jianfeng looked at each other, breaking away from the alliance that had existed for hundreds of years!This crazy idea was absolutely impossible in the past, why is it not completely impossible after the young man with black hair and black eyes said it lightly?

Shao Jun stood up: "This is just some immature thoughts of mine, but, two of you, one of you hopes to turn the family from darkness to light, and the other hopes to carry forward the prosperity of the family. Now, become the rule-maker, become the new alliance The founding forces of China have unprecedented justifications, what a good card you hold in your hands, do you really want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that history presents to you?"

He nodded slightly and left the room.

The room was dead silent.

After a long time, Anatole murmured: "He is crazy, I said he would dare to do anything for Xia. Sure enough, rebuilding the alliance is more crazy than continuing to stretch the front with the Zerg. The political situation of the entire Blue Star will There will be turmoil and division that has not been seen in hundreds of years."

Hua Jianfeng said lightly: "Every inflection point in history is often created by some ordinary little people. I suddenly felt that I could also try to be one of the pushing hands. What's more fascinating is that after a long time People in the dark can actually hold high the banner of justice, drive the chariot of public opinion, destroy the decaying buildings, and stand frankly in the light from now on, telling the younger generations that your fathers, once in the magnificent historical process In it, it is painted with a thick stroke of ink and color."

"Compared to the current rotten alliance, the new alliance will not be worse than it is now. Why can't we give it a try?"

Anatoly turned his head to look at Feng Huajian, his black eyes were full of ambition, the window was already brightly lit, and the bright sunlight shone through the porthole of the spaceship, shining on the beautiful facial pattern of the black-haired youth, like a burning totem.

Unconsciously, he whispered: "Being a rule-maker—this is really, really attractive for people like us who have been immersed in Vanity Fair for many years."
