Food King [Interstellar]

Chapter 118 Rescue

This time it was no longer as simple as a strike and parade. The angry people rushed directly to the local government agencies, shopping malls, customs and other places, and began to smash and loot, robbing all food. Was the foolish Edward VI buried with him?

Within a day, similar situations appeared on almost all planets, and the entire empire fell into chaos and panic.At the beginning, the local police and the armed forces made weak obstructions, but they soon collapsed. It’s not that they were powerless to stop them. They were also victims of this. Like all citizens, they also face the threat of starvation.

This time, Edward VI's reaction was fairly quick. That night, Edward VI delivered a speech. First, he severely reprimanded Jiang Tang for spreading false information, bewitching the public, and sowing discord between the people and the government. He then said that the imperial government had not intercepted any Agricultural products are just routine inspections of agricultural products. Once the inspection is passed, agricultural products can enter the major planets immediately.In order to strengthen the management of agricultural planets, the government nationalized all agricultural stars.Edward VI strongly appealed to people everywhere not to gather crowds to make trouble, and those who disobeyed would be arrested as anti-government crimes.

Edward VI's remedy was a compromise to the people.However, the people are not fools. If Jiang Tang hadn't revealed this fact, wouldn't they be starved to death?Edward VI's statement also caused dissatisfaction among several major food families. They had operated a foundation for hundreds of years, but the emperor took it back with a few words. Edward's royal family, isn't that what it belongs to?

The common people were not so easy to deceive. Without seeing the food, they could not believe that what the emperor said was true. The next day, anti-government activities continued everywhere.The government sent armed forces to suppress it, which aroused people's anger even more. There were news everywhere that government buildings were burned and government public facilities were smashed.

The Peret Palace was surrounded from top to bottom by angry people. People, speeding cars and spaceships were everywhere. Not even a fly could fly out of the palace. Everyone was strongly calling for Edward VI to step down.

Edward VI summoned the troops stationed in Peret to disperse the people, and issued an ultimatum to the besieged people for the last time, asking everyone to evacuate immediately, and anyone who violated it will be killed without mercy!

However, before Peret's garrison bloodbathed the local people, heavy news came from the Sarn planet. Punk Baker declared the independence of the Sarn star from the rule of the Galactic Empire. After declaring independence, in just one day, four planets became independent from the Galactic Empire.

Edward VI did not expect that, before the war officially started, his empire began to fall apart.What made him feel even more panicked than ever was that not only did the people in front of the palace not disperse, but they gathered more and more. He pointed to the crowd of people and cars on the holographic video like bees and ants, and said to Sterling, the commander of Peret's garrison. Said: "Sterling, tell me, what is going on, where are your people? What about the army? Hurry up and blow them all away! Kill them all!"

Admiral Sterling has a handsome face, dressed in a dark blue military uniform, tall and straight, with a straight waist, and looks heroic. He put his legs together and gave a military salute: "Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate to drive violently at this time." , the anger of the people is lava, they can melt everything."

Edward VI's eyeballs popped out, and the white eyeballs were bloodshot: "What do you mean? You don't drive them away, do you want to wait for them to come in and kill me? Sterling, do you want to rebel?"

Admiral Sterling said: "Your Majesty, you should recognize the current situation. Four planets have declared independence today, and you don't know how many more will be tomorrow. You have to leave yourself a way out."

Edward VI slammed his fist on the table: "Isn't it just four planets, I still have 28 planets left. I will immediately order Hoffman to destroy the rebels!"

Admiral Sterling said blankly: "Your Majesty, to be precise, there are only nineteen."

"How could there be only nineteen—even if there were only nineteen, I would still have an advantage over them. Get me Hoffman!" Edward VI yelled at the secretary.

The secretary connected to Admiral Hoffman's communication with trepidation, and Edward VI said: "Hoffman, listen to me, go and recover the Sarn star now, if there is any resistance, it will be razed to the ground!"

It took a while for Admiral Hoffman to speak: "Your Majesty Edward VI, I am about to tell you that I have decided to follow His Majesty Prince Andre, and I cannot do so."

Edward VI was so angry that he smashed the communicator in his hand: "You traitors, well, you wait for me, as long as I don't die, none of you will live!"

Admiral Sterling looked at His Majesty the Emperor with sympathy: "Your Majesty, I think it is imperative that you surrender, or surrender the throne to His Majesty Prince Andrew, so that you can still have a way out."

Edward VI seemed to shoot poisonous arrows from his eyes. He rushed forward and grabbed Sterling by the collar, staring into the other's eyes: "Sterling, you want to betray me too?"

Admiral Sterling said: "Your Majesty, Prince Andrew has led an army of 300 million to Peret, and a large part of our reinforcements have gone to support Elton and Stan, and it is too late to return to defense." Dun and Stan are the last two agricultural stars not captured.

Edward VI couldn't help shaking his hands, and his eyes were so wide that their eye sockets were about to burst: "It's only 300 million. Isn't Peret's garrison more than 200 million? It must be able to support the reinforcements."

Sterling shook his head: "The Short family's army is all elite, and their weapons are especially advanced. We have no chance of winning at all."

The flesh on Edward VI's cheek couldn't help trembling: "Short, yes, we still have the card of Barry Short, bring Barry Short to me, and ask him to call back the Short family's army, otherwise I'll kill this old man! Go, hurry up!" He pointed at his secretary, who was scared by his murderous eyes, and his calves trembled, and he went out like shit.

Sterling sighed almost inaudibly and did not speak.

Not long after, the secretary came back and shrank his neck: "Your Majesty, they said, that the Duke of Short has disappeared."

Edward VI instantly exploded like a ignited bomb: "Disappeared? Where did he go?"

The secretary didn't speak, but trembled.Edward VI slapped him fiercely, and roared, "Are you dead or dumb? What are you doing here, hurry up and find me!"

The secretary was dizzy from being slapped, and ran away when he heard the order.Edward VI lifted his foot and kicked his chair, his nose fluttered, and his nostrils were so wide that an egg could be stuffed in: "Fucking Barry Short has wings, can he still fly? Who let him go?"

Sterling said: "Your Majesty, you have no way out, so surrender now."

Edward VI grabbed Sterling's lapel: "Why should I surrender, you must fight to the last man for me! Now, go and kill the mob outside!"

Sterling shook his head: "I will not bear the infamy of slaughtering unarmed people. If Your Majesty, you feel ashamed to surrender, you can pass the throne to His Highness Henry and let him negotiate with Prince Andrew." Henry is Edward The eldest son of VI.

Edward VI sat down dejectedly, but he forgot that the chair was kicked over by himself, and he sat down on the ground. Sterling didn't reach out to pull him, but just looked coldly at the man who had lost all majesty. His Majesty the Emperor.Edward VI hated Sterling so much that he gritted his teeth, but he could not do anything to him. Sterling was his last straw, and his personal safety depended entirely on him: "Call Henry and William."

When Andre and Adam arrived at Peret, just as the people in Peret were rioting, Adam sent someone to take advantage of the chaos to rescue his father.Barry Short arrived on the Orange Lightning, looked at his son, raised his hand and slapped him: "You bastard, how dare you rebel."

Adam smiled instead of anger: "Dad, if I don't rebel, can you come out safely? How did Edward VI abuse you? Why are you so skinny, Bill, hurry up and ask Richard to cook for my dad Delicious to nourish the body."

Barry Short didn't speak, but closed his eyes tiredly: "Nat hasn't declared independence yet, right?"

Adam said, "No."

"That's good, send me back." Barry Short said.

Adam laughed: "We didn't declare independence because it wasn't necessary."

Barry Short glared at his son.Adam said: "Corruption is like this. It's all decided by one person. Don't you think it's unreasonable?"

"That shouldn't be us!" Barry Short roared.

Adam said: "It wasn't me at all. I'm not interested in politics. My purpose is to rescue you."

Barry Short heaved a sigh of relief: "That's fine, now that I'm out, let's go back to Nat."

Adam sighed and said, "I'm afraid it won't work. There is no turning back when I start a bow. Although I am not interested in politics, I must do what I promised my friends. What's more, without their help, I can't save you. Your old friend Ender Lie is also here, do you want to see him?"

Barry Short closed his eyes: "I'm tired, and I don't want to see anyone for now."

Adam said: "Dad, it's impossible to be alone at this time. We and Edward VI will either die or we will die. I don't want to be buried with such a fool, so he must die!"
