Boundary Shattered [Interstellar]

Tang Yu didn't speak. .

He knew that the other party gave Tang Wanli this excuse to lure him to meet him this time, not just for Tang Tao.

What is he going to do?

"Do you think this is too much?" Tang Jing asked suddenly.

Tang Yu was taken aback.

The other party thought to himself: "This kind of cleansing is too thorough, involving too many innocent people, and maybe it will chill the hearts of many people, but it doesn't matter, I will never dare to be dissatisfied again."

Tang Yu said: "If the head of the family finally feels a little guilty and wants me to enlighten, then I can't do it."

"Guilty? No way." Tang Jing turned around slowly.

His face was against the light, so he couldn't see clearly, every strand of his hair was neatly arranged, and the shape of his robe was meticulous.

Tang Jing walked towards Tang Tian step by step, and said at the same time:

"Such liberty can no longer be indulged, not even a superficial one. All must be made aware of whom they are governed and ruled by. Since a semblance of democracy gives people the impression that they can act freely, even If you want to resist the illusion of ruling, then simply take it back. Centralize power even more, and no one dares to offend."

Tang Yu remained unmoved, her expression and movements remained unchanged.He asked back, "So?"

Tang Jing said: "Military Department——"

Tang Yu said, "No."

Tang Jing was suddenly interrupted, and frowned unhappily.

Tang Yu continued: "The reason why the military department is not under the jurisdiction of the government department, what is the reason, does the owner know? Because the military department has never been and cannot be the ruling class, not the upper echelon of the resolution, not the royal family, not the nobles, It's an entire empire."

"The Tang family has been in charge of the military since their ancestors, until after my father, you, the head of the family, became the prime minister of the cabinet."

"But I don't think you will even forget this family rule. Since you, the head of the family, chose the path of politics, and now that I am the minister of the military department, I will never break this balance. The military department will not just It is used by nobles and royal families, not to mention that the purpose is to wipe out the people of the empire."

After saying these words, Tang Yu turned around without hesitating, and left directly.Leaving Tang Jing staring at the place where he left with dark eyes, he suddenly picked up the glass decoration next to him and threw it to the ground hard.

The unfinished business continued. On the way back to the military headquarters on foot, Tang Yu encountered many robots patrolling the road, as well as family aircrafts that were trembling and cautiously driving on the suspension track.

The aircraft glides slowly at low altitude, almost at the same speed as Tang Ting.Speed ​​monitoring devices are installed on both sides of the suspension track, and the red light on it flickers from time to time, which seems to be very eerie and utterly frightening. .

The military building and the government building are on both sides of Fengxing Avenue, and along the wide and empty Fengxing Avenue, the imperial palace is at the end.

Like the Lord of the gods who are high above, he only uses his face to look down and influence everyone.

During the days when the imperial capital started to be purged, the royal family never showed up, and the eldest prince, who was supposed to be in the military department, was nowhere to be seen. It was as if everyone was huddled in the palace.

Tang Yu exhaled lightly.

The military... the military is not controlled by the political department, and likewise does not understand the government.

There are mostly civilians in the military, but the royal family needs to be balanced, so that the starting point and promotion of the nobles are much easier than the civilians.Therefore, seven out of ten of those who really hold power in the military are nobles.

Even though the royal family has no right to directly order the military to dispatch troops to do things for it, some generals are loyal supporters of the royal family.

But why loyalty?

Tang Yu touched her occipital bone with her fingers.

The royal family, the power that truly owns the entire empire, is really...too cowardly.Because of their fear of the military department, the entire empire can only have one marshal at a time, and several marshals are unbalanced and each sits in one area.They even want to detain the only marshal of the empire in the capital star, just because Yuan Yue is a commoner.

And... what can he do?

The footsteps that had just entered the military building stopped, and then turned to go out.

He summoned his hover car and headed towards the location of the Tang family.And that is also farther away, the outskirts of where the Tang family is located.

——It is the old head of the Tang family, Tang Rong's current residence.

Black Cloud City was already overcrowded, but in the past few days, the number of people has decreased visibly.The people placed everywhere on the street disappeared inexplicably, and only a series of luggage remained on the ground at will, which was taken away by the cleaning robot the next day; later, those who could not report their identities and affiliations to the central government in time, or could not report their identities at all, sojourned to other people The people who live there don't know when they will go out and they won't be able to come back.

How many houses there are in the entire Black Cloud City, and how many people are left behind, seems to have been calculated extremely precisely.

It seems that there is an invisible eye watching everyone over the city all the time, controlling everything, regulating everything, and every move of everyone can be regarded as a reason for them to disappear in the next moment.

Not doing anything wrong, but out of perfect order.

There are only so many people in this city, so that every house can be filled with just one person, not even one more.

Nor will they tell everyone that what they want is not rule, but order, and they will be cleaned up automatically before they move out of the city.

However, no one reported anything to the majestic area in the center.

"Anti-peace"? "Anti-imperial rule" thinking?

Report to these outsiders?

The life in Heiyun City was lifeless, without any sound.The number of people has also been controlled, and it is safe for the time being.

Lian Ting and Tang Tao have been hiding in every corner of the city wearing the military's invisible combat clothing for the past few days.The invisibility cloak can only ignore the scanning and detection of signals and rays, and has no real invisibility effect. Therefore, the two of them spent almost a few tense days in this city without stopping for a moment. They rested in a corner for a while, and then had to move to The next place, in case of being discovered, was arrested.

Even if Tang Tao has experienced it, he was in a military school in the Imperial Capital, and he was not pampered, but he is a nobleman after all, and he didn't have much to work on before.This time he was in the most embarrassing time, because he had to hide, the muscles of his legs throbbed with pain from excessive exercise, and then he adapted to the pain in the next hiding.Repeating this over and over again made him a little numb.

The two of them temporarily stopped in a narrow passage between two houses, Lian Ting looked down at Tang Tao who was panting on his knees, and handed over a piece of sand ant tentacles.

The city was covered by a shield connected to the central network, and they couldn't easily go out and kill the sand ant beasts to get water. Now the two only had three days of water left.

Residents who have reported their identities and affiliations to the jurisdiction will have water distributed by robots from house to house.But how much can outside officials know about the actual situation here, and it is impossible to distribute the tentacles of sand ants, so in the end, a few drops of the water source that is finally distributed can resist evaporation and fall into people's mouths every day, who knows? can know.

Tang Tao took a piece of tentacles and swallowed it down.

There was a wind and sand in Heiyun City, and the sand rose from the ground finely.From the outside, you can see the boundless yellow sandy land at a glance, where there is a whirl, getting bigger and bigger, whistling, agitated for a while, and then fell into silence.

Tang Tao withdrew his gaze and looked at Lian Ting, hesitating to speak.

Lian Ting asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Tao said: "How are we going to get out? If we continue to stay here, there will always be times when we don't notice and get caught by them."

Surveillance instruments are frequently flying in the sky to detect the situation below and detect where there are people outside the control. His camera will analyze everyone who appears on the road, and the data is related to the people who have entered the data in the central. Compare.Those who have not appeared in it before will be captured and taken away by the aircraft that is rushing over.

Can they hide for three days and five days, three months and five months?Or even... three to five years?

These officials who came to "clean" the planet were sent by the imperial capital and noble ministers.He is aware of the behavior style of those people, and the purge will continue. On such a remote planet with little control before, continuous monitoring for three to five years is not impossible.

They couldn't keep running like this.

Lian Ting shook his head, "We can't go, at least, we can't go first."

Tang Tao frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

Lian Ting asked back, "Then why are you here?"

Tang Tao was taken aback.

What is he here for?

He is obviously a nobleman, and it is impossible for him to be killed casually as long as he shows his identity to the officials.His terminal information is connected to the Tang family of the imperial capital, and to Tang Jing, the patriarch of the Tang family. The officials appointed by the imperial capital dare not let anything happen to him.

Then why did he...haven't thought about going back to the Imperial Capital directly through those officials?

Tang Tao looked up at Lian Ting.Lian Ting's eyes were very clear, as if he knew what he was thinking.Tang Tao couldn't help but look away.

He still didn't want to run away directly.

The word "escape"...was too insulting for him.His father let himself compete with Tang Chu. He was already in such a panic on planet B-11 that he had to rely on Tang Chu to save him. Even though he led a hundred elite soldiers, he still ended up like this.Now here, how can he retreat.

Even if he didn't want to compete with Tang Chu for the military headquarters, his self-esteem would not allow himself to back down.

Tang Tao pursed his lips, thought for a while, and asked:

"Then what are you planning to do, Lieutenant General?"

Lian Ting looked outside vigilantly, paying attention to whether any monitoring equipment would fly in.

"I am a soldier, whether it belongs to the planetary garrison or the expeditionary army. I used to be the planetary garrison of the imperial capital, and I still have to lead the troops to the front line, because the military department, the soldiers, have never existed for the government or the ruling class. It's just that the royal family and nobles want to limit their military power to the imperial capital where they live, so the most powerful legion has always been the garrison of the imperial capital, possessing the most advanced military weapons of the empire."

"So in fact, the Legion of Glory has almost disintegrated, and there are only more than 100 people left. The Marshal's departure from the Legion of Glory is an opportunity for our Legion of Glory."
