Chapter 107

While Donovan was resting on Ulan, the political hall of Oude, next to Ulan, was not as dark as it used to be, but was brightly lit and buzzing.

It should be explained that the Caesar family, the Tang family, the Ulan religion, the European Empire, and the Republic of Winter are in the star domain, because they share the sunshine of a star, so their schedule is the same.

In the Hall of political Affairs, wearing a red cloak, sitting on a chair with a very high back, wearing a crown, holding a staff, and having two mustaches, the 40-to 50-year-old Emperor of Ode, Kaisen Ode, rapped the white jade floor with his staff and whispered to the civil and military ministers who were talking to each other in the hall: "all right, be quiet."

When the emperor spoke out, the ministers immediately shut up and respectfully stood back. Seeing that his minister was so obedient, Emperor Kessenoude nodded with satisfaction and looked proudly at a man standing under his left hand.

It was that Donawu who saw the emperor's eyes and immediately glanced at the emperor with a look of reverence, and then bowed his head slightly.

Emperor Kaisenoude, who was very satisfied that his authority had been accepted by outsiders, glanced at the ministers with complacency and asked, "well, have the ministers come up with any decisions?"

A minister with a goatee on the emperor's right hand stepped out and said, "your Majesty, the minister has finished the discussion."

"Oh, what's the result?" The emperor asked with great interest.

"in order to keep the orthodox blood of the Tang family from being tarnished by outsiders, and to reflect the friendship between the Oder Empire and the Tang family, ministers and others agreed that troops should be deployed to eliminate the rebellious thief-Tang long!" The minister said in an impassioned tone.

"get rid of the thief! Destroy the rebellious thief! " Somehow, the minister clenched his fist and raised his hand and shouted slogans, and what was even more surprising was that other ministers in the hall followed suit. In an instant, the slogan of killing the traitor resounded through the hall.

Seeing this, Donnawu shouted helplessly with his fist raised. Although he had been in charge of the diplomatic work of the empire at the time of the Tang family, for so many years, he still could not understand why the empire shouted slogans when something happened.

Emperor Oude, who stood up and calmed down the ministers and announced that he was preparing for the war, glanced at Donawu and said with a sneer in his heart, "Hey, hey, although you just promised to retake the Zhongzhou Star and let you Donawu take power," and you promise to declare the Tang family a vassal of the European empire. But would I be stupid enough to follow a verbal contract? This time I finally got an excuse to annex Zhongzhou Star. As long as I ate it, do you still want me to spit it out? "

According to the practice that there is no chaos in the galaxy, under normal circumstances, the forces of different systems will not be attacked. It is all the family forces that attack the family forces and the religious forces that attack the religious forces. Of course, it is very normal for the enemies of monarchy and democracy to attack each other as long as their spheres of influence are connected. However, when attacking the forces of different systems, we must find excuses, even very false excuses, as long as they make sense.

What are the consequences of attacking forces of different institutions without making excuses? It seems that no one has ever tried except that a family force attacking religious forces was jointly wiped out by other religious forces more than a decade ago. Moreover, up to now, with the exception of the one mentioned just now, there are no other examples of wars waged by different institutional forces without any reason for the existence of chaos-free galaxies. In other words, this practice is just a non-binding practice, there are no consequences at all. Just do not know who will tell you, let everyone understand the truth of this troubled times is: as long as the fist is big, you can walk sideways! There is no possibility at all.

Inside the temple of the Ulan Star, a group of priests with at least seven orchids on a snow-white silk robe surrounded an old man who looked old and had a huge orchid pattern on the silk robe, squinting and listening to something.

Soon after the discussion stopped, Lanlong said respectfully to the old man, "your Holiness, we all agree that we should help Lord Donovan to retake the Middle State Star. How do you decide about this?"

The Pope opened his eyes slightly, looked at Lanlong and asked, "after Donovan gets the Zhongzhou Star, can you guarantee that he will let the people of the Zhongzhou Star regard the Wulan Holy Religion as everything to them?"

Lan long was stupefied for a moment, but soon said with cold eyes: "as long as our paramedics are stationed in Zhongzhou Star, it is not his turn to disagree with the people's belief in our saints!" As soon as these words came out, the young priests embroidered with seven or eight orchids applauded one after another, while several old priests with nine orchids shook their heads with a slight sigh.

Seeing all this, the pope sighed helplessly in his heart. He is well aware that now Ulan Religion is a little away from the original doctrine of not fighting bravely, and is beginning to move towards this dangerous stage of using force to expand its influence. Although they want to be locked up so as not to cause the danger of destruction for the holy religion, in any case, they are descended from these old men of their own. And it is not only these young priests who have this idea, but almost all the parishioners of Ulan have this idea. Alas, forget it. After all, their aim is to carry forward Ulan religion and to use force to expand its influence. Other religions have also used it a lot, so let nature take its course.

Thinking of this, the pope closed his eyes and nodded and said, "since you are sure, from now on, all the holy guards will be under your command." I am old, too, and I will pass on the pope to you in a while, so that I can concentrate on my teachings. "

"your Holiness!" Hearing this, Lanlong immediately threw himself in front of the pope, knelt down, took the pope's hand and kissed it. I don't know if she was moved by the Pope's sentimental tone or by the fact that the Pope was about to pass the throne to her soon.

Seeing the faces of the young priests beaming, the pope who caressed mo Lanlong's head sighed in his heart again.

Tang long, who had been wandering around in Zhongzhou Star all day, ran to Ling Li's office when night fell. When he crept into the office, he found Ling Li alone in the office while eating fast food and looking at the documents. Can not help secretly smile, crept up behind Ling Li, ready to startle her. But when Tang long, who had been hungry for a day, saw Ling Li holding the meat slices she was about to send to her mouth with chopsticks, and smelled the attractive smell of meat coming from there, regardless of whether it was polite or sanitary, the probe opened his mouth and snatched the meat directly.

Sure enough, Ling Li jumped up and put on a fighting posture when she was suddenly glued to her body. When she saw that the person who scared her was Tang long, she was stupefied for a moment, and then quickly reacted and knelt down and saluted to Tang long and said, "see my lord."

When Ling Li had just knelt down, Tang long had already picked her up and chewed the sliced meat and said, "Why do you kneel and salute?" It's not like you don't know that I hate this kind of etiquette. Just salute like you used to. Well, the meat is delicious. "

After getting up, Ling Li looked at Tang long, then nodded and said, "I don't know what my lord is doing here."

"I came to eat with you when I was hungry. By the way, there is no outsider here. Don't call me by the princess. Call me by name." As Tang long said, he pinched a piece of meat from Ling Li's fast food with his finger and put it into his mouth again.

Ling Li was surprised to hear this, but after seeing Tang long sucking the gravy on her fingers, she smiled and said, "shall I get you a fast food?"

"well, it should be as delicious as your fast food, and a little more meat." Tang long said with a fierce nod of his head.

Ling Li nodded and smiled and said, "OK." And walked out of the office.

After a while, when Ling Li came back with fast food, she found Tang long whistling with his hands behind his back. When she was about to call Tang long, she found that all the meat on the table was gone. Ling Li smiled and said to Tang long, "all right, let's eat."

Tang long looked back and found that Ling Li looked at herself with a smile, touched her nose and smiled sheepishly: "I'm sorry, the meat smells so good, and I'm so hungry, so …" Hee hee. "

"it doesn't matter. I don't like meat anyway. Here, it's yours." Ling Li said and handed over the fast food.

"Thank you. Well, it smells good." Tang Longfei quickly took over the fast food and began to eat, but Ling Li didn't say much. After seeing Tang long, she continued to read the documents while eating.

Tang long, with his mouth full of rice, stopped working hard, looked up and said to Ling Li, "Ling Li, I say your security system here is so bad that no one even found me coming in!" In any case, you are also the intelligence department here, and you need to strengthen the security. "

Ling Li was shocked when she heard the speech. She nodded heavily and said, "Yes, I will step up my vigilance." She looked so heavy because at first she thought Tang long could come directly in and the guards let her go, but unexpectedly it was the guards who didn't find Tang long at all! If he had been the enemy, he would have been killed and the information would have been leaked!

"by the way, what has become of the whole universe now?" Tang long asked while eating.

After thinking about it, Ling Li also said while eating: "the big countries have no sign of entering the chaos of war for the time being, but small countries have fought each other, and wars take place almost every day, just like our chaos-free galaxies."

"has there been no fighting among the great powers?" Tang long asked curiously that he did not believe that the big countries with advantages in zhan would not take advantage of these troubled times to expand.

Ling Li shook her head and said, "there are no battles between big countries and big countries, but there are frequent wars between big countries and small countries." Now the whole universe feels the same as at the beginning of the first Cosmic War, when small countries perish and big countries grow, and when small countries do not exist, the real cosmic war will break out. "

"I mean, those big countries will certainly not be so calm. By the way, what happened to the first Wulai United States and the second Night Empire? " Because Chen Kang used the heads of state of these two countries to describe the impossibility of unifying the universe, Tang long paid special attention to them.

"the United States of Wulai is stable and prosperous, and its territory has not expanded. The Night Empire sent more troops to expand its armaments, and they have wiped out the two small neighboring countries. " Ling Li said after eating a mouthful of food.

"is that impossible? The United States of Wulai did not expand its territory? Didn't you say they were very ambitious? " Tang long asked in disbelief.

"Wulai has not expanded its territory, but they control almost all the small countries around them." Ling Li continued to eat without looking up.

"Wulai controls a small country nearby? What's going on? " Tang long asked in surprise.

Ling Li, who had finished eating, said while packing up the fast food box: "it turned out that when every country had black hole bullets, Wulai did not do anything rashly, but focused on developing the economy." After the black hole bomb lost its effect, Wulai immediately sent troops to attack the small countries nearby. Of course, he had to find some excuses for the leaders of a certain country to take bribes and pervert the law, suck the people's fat and ointment, persecute the people, dictatorship, brutality, and so on. After Wulai eliminated the leadership of the small country, it was not to occupy the country, but to support the friendly Wulai country, and the obedient statesmen of the small country came to power, and then left a group of troops stationed and then withdrew the army to the country. "

"Yeah? What good are they doing like this? That small country still exists, so it would be better to incorporate them into the territory. " Tang long, who also finished the meal, asked inexplicably.

After handing Tang long the toothpick paper towels, Ling Li said while packing up Tang long's fast food box: "there are many advantages for them to do so, for example, they do not have to manage the government affairs of that small country, nor do they have to bear the expenses of the garrison, because the garrison expenses are borne by the small countries. At the same time, there is no need to worry that the occupation of these small countries will be retaliated by the Zionists, which can ensure the stability of Wulai and reduce the casualties of Wulai soldiers. In addition, Wulai can directly order small countries to act according to their own wishes, such as dumping products and plundering resources against small countries. Anyway, these small countries dare not be disobedient. After all, those garrison troops are not put there to look good. And even if someone attacks Wulai, we must first attack those small countries, so as to win the precious early warning time for Wulai. Since there are so many advantages, why do you think Wulai should incorporate small countries into its own territory? You know, the Night Empire used tens of millions of ground troops to pacify the nationalists of those two small countries, and it was said that they had suffered heavy losses. "

Tang long, who was dumbfounded for a while, woke up. He shook his head and said, "although this is a great trick, these small countries will revolt one day, and Wulaiguo is not much smarter than the Night Empire."

Ling Li, who had already made tea for Tang long, turned around and asked in surprise, "Why do you say that?"

Tang long said triumphantly: "this is not easy. Although the Night Empire will encounter revenge from the revengers for a period of time, these people are in the minority, and the vast majority of the people think that they can live a stable life. I wouldn't take part in such a boring thing at all. If there are no special circumstances, in the end, the nationalists must be wiped out, and these small annexed countries are fully integrated into the Night Empire and become an integral part of the empire. "

Speaking of this, Tang long suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, if the Dark Night Empire is poisonous enough, we should first promote that all the people of the annexed countries enjoy the same treatment as the people of their own empires." Then organize a group of fake Zionists to publicize the concept of Zionism among the public and collect intelligence from other Zionist organizations at the same time. At that time, as long as the people refused to join, they immediately killed all the families of those who refused to join, and trumpeted that this was the end of unpatriotism. But also to wreak havoc on public measures and kill innocent civilians, no matter what they do, they have to equate Zionists with terrorists. When the people realize that the Zionists are terrorists, as long as the Empire strengthens its efforts to crack down on the Zionists, it tries its best to buy the hearts of the people at the same time. Within a few years, the people of these annexed countries will recognize themselves as members of the empire from the bottom of their hearts. At that time, these small countries will cease to exist, and all the power of small countries will be used by the empire. "

Ling Li looked at Tang long dumbfounded. She wondered how a straight person could come up with such a vicious way. However, this method can only be used by dictatorships, and if democracies use this method, the government could be ousted at any time. Ling Li, who stayed for a long time, didn't wake up until her hand was scalded by boiling water.

Ling Li calmed her face for a moment, brought tea to Tang long and then continued to ask, "I know that if the Night Empire does this, it can quickly integrate those annexed small countries into the Empire, but how does this mean that the Night Empire is stronger than Wulai?"

Tang long, who blew his breath to the tea, smiled and said, "hee hee, don't you understand?" Even if there are many countries controlled by Wulai, it can not be compared with the Night Empire, Wulai will definitely be destroyed by the Night Empire when fighting a war. Because the Night Empire, the more it annexed other countries, the stronger it became. Even if there are Zionists in the country, as long as there are no large-scale riots, then he can maintain the situation of a unified country. On the other hand, Wulai can only be regarded as an alliance with many countries when it is controlled by a large number of countries. As soon as the war breaks out, who knows whether these controlled countries will turn against the water? "

After listening to this, Ling Li nodded thoughtfully, saying that a unified country could definitely kill an alliance in which its allies were hostile to the leader.

"by the way, how is the Union of Violet now?" Tang long, who had taken a sip of tea, asked Ling Li.

"alas, it has been divided, with the disappearance or death of the marshal, the resignation of the president, the control of the capital circle by parliament, the control of a piece of land by each of the four generals, and the emergence of many inexplicable separatist forces. Anyway, it's one word chaos! " Speaking of the situation of the Union of Wanluo, Ling Li still sighed involuntarily.

Hearing this, Tang long thought to himself, "fortunately, my parents have gone to Wulai. I believe they will not come back when they see that the Union of Wanluo is in such a mess." Thinking of this, Tang long asked, "what about the Silver Eagle Empire?"

Ling Li thought for a moment and said, "the whole empire is divided into three pieces, and the three princes each attack each other with their own followers, all trying to unify the whole empire." However, I heard that many nobles and people of the empire began a large-scale parade in order to oppose the civil war, which caused countless casualties and consumed countless money and materials, and hoped that the princes could solve the problem of the throne through negotiations. The princes are under pressure or mainly because they have no war capital, so they are ready to negotiate a cease-fire. "

Tang long was not very interested in this, but nodded and asked again, "how is the intelligence gathering in this chaos-free galaxy?"

Ling Li said with a bitter face, "the collection is not comprehensive, because all forces are very strict in managing their territories." Although some intelligence has been collected using neutral caravans that travel through various forces, it does not matter. Because many forces do not allow ships of foreign forces to pass through, although some religious forces are allowed to pass, they refuse to allow people to land on the planet. Most of the intelligence is collected by listening to what other businessmen say. "

Tang long thought for a moment and said, "well, don't we have a lot of spy satellites?" When someone is sent out with the caravan, place these satellites near the planet where intelligence needs to be collected. In this way, even if specific information cannot be obtained, the number of warships can still be calculated. "

Ling Li hesitated and asked, "will they find out?"

Tang long said with a smile: "the spy satellite is not called a spy satellite even if it is found so easily, and even if it is found, they do not know who put it. There is no sign on the satellite at all. I believe that the satellite must have the function of hiding signals, right?"

Ling Li thought for a moment and smiled and said, "OK, I'll follow your instructions."

Tang long nodded and said, "well, this should be done as soon as possible. First of all, several planets near us need to put such spy satellites."

Ling Li was surprised and asked, "Hey, are you going to kill them?" We just occupied Zhongzhou Star! "

Tang long said with a smile: "not so fast, as you said, after all, we have just occupied Zhongzhou Star, all departments have not yet entered the orbit, now is not the time for war." However, it is necessary to collect intelligence as soon as possible. on the one hand, it can lay the foundation for us to march in the future, and on the other hand, we can prevent them from plotting against us. "

"well, I understand." Ling Li nodded.

"also, let's see if we can buy their galaxy map from the caravan. The galaxy map in the central computer of Zhongzhou Star and Red Lion Star is so exasperating that it only records the spatial location of the five administrative stars nearby, not to mention the spatial orientation of other planets. Said that Tang long has no choice but to sigh, there is no space location dare not jump, because no one knows whether a random input of data will allow himself to jump into a black hole or star.

Ling Li also sighed with a sigh. It seemed that she was going to buy a galaxy map from the caravan. She did not know what the Tang family's intelligence officers did, but they did not collect intelligence from other planets except the five administrative stars that could be reached within a day of normal navigation.

When Tang long wanted to say anything else, the office door was opened, and Una, Sally and Liwu came in. As soon as she saw Tang long Una, she smiled and said, "my lord, there you are. Let's find it for a while."

"Oh, you're here, too. I'm talking to Ling Li about the information. have a seat." Tang long said while waving to Una and others to find a chair to sit down.

Sally pulled up a chair and smiled and said, "Lord, you didn't go back to your office. You didn't know that the women of those retainers came to the door, but they filled the whole corridor."

Li Wu, who sat beside Una, said with a smile, "if I hadn't sent guards to keep them out of the office, I'm afraid the master's office would have been destroyed."

"Hmm? The wife of the retainer? What do they want with me? " Tang long asked strangely.

"looking for you to attend their ball, they all come to deliver invitations in person, so it seems that they are intoxicated." Una joked.

"the ball? Not interested. " Tang long frowned and muttered that he didn't care about Euna's drunken words. Tang long, who quickly put these things aside, said to Sally, "you are just in time. How is the reorganization of the army?"

"I sent all the Tang soldiers on the 21 X warships to the barracks and replaced them with the soldiers and ape men we had trained, who still had to wait for them to stabilize their mood before they were allowed to enter the army." Sally nodded.

"well, tell me about the current situation in the army." Tang long then listened attentively.

"Yes, there are 44 X warships, 50 advanced warships, 20 beehive warships and 440 transport ships, but 28 of them are so damaged that they need a week of maintenance to recover. The total number of soldiers is 5.7 million, of which there are 1 million ape-men. " Speaking of which Sally suddenly remembered something and said, "by the way, my lord, when I tested the 21 X warships, I found that Caesar's family had a new kind of warship." There are only five warships in number, but these five warships have destroyed dozens of Tang warships. It can be said that the failure of the Tang family in the Red Lion Star is largely due to these five warships. "

"Why? Caesar's family has a new battleship? What shape is it? How can you be so good? It's not copied from the "war" game again, is it? " Tang long asked in surprise.

Hearing Sally's words, Ling Li, who stayed by, also began to be interested. Because she is in charge of intelligence, this about the new battleship is also part of the intelligence.

"this is an image copied from the computer. Take a look." Sally took out a card, pressed the button in the corner of the card, and a strange warship appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing the battleship shaped like a Mitsubishi file, Tang long moaned: "Oh, my God!" File battleship! Assault battleships in the "War" game! "

Hearing that we are all dumb, this kind of battleship is a virtual warship in the game of "War" again. Ling Li, who had pulled out the record book, said anxiously to Tang long, "tell me about the data of this battleship."

Tang long shook his head and said, "I don't remember clearly. I'm looking for an opportunity for you to play the 'war' game. There are all kinds of data on it." Hearing this, Ling Li secretly decided that she must copy all the battleship data in the "War" game, because there may be new warships coming out in the future.

"you must know the general situation, don't you? Tell us about it. " Una saw that Ling Li was so anxious that she couldn't help saying that she wanted to go to the "war" game immediately.

Tang long nodded, thought for a moment and said: "this kind of file warship does not rely on artillery or missiles to destroy enemy ships, this kind of warships rely on thick-skinned, hard-mouthed to destroy enemy ships." The shields of this battleship are only 500 degrees, but they are not used against laser beams, but against objects such as meteors. "

"then how could this kind of battleship have been attacked by artillery rain? I saw them attacked by tens of thousands of laser beams on my computer, but nothing happened! " Sally asked eagerly that she didn't want to encounter a warship that was not afraid of laser beams.

"what makes this kind of battleship special is its astonishingly thick hull. Do you know how many people are piloted by such a big warship?" Without waiting for everyone to shake their heads, Tang long said, "there are only 10 people!" A captain, a radar man, a correspondent, two pilots, two gunners, three power furnace maintainers, they stayed in a room a little bigger than ours. Except for a huge engine and energy pool, the whole battleship is full of metal hulls! "

"such a thick hull?! No wonder you are not afraid of laser beams! " Sally looked at the file battleship on the hologram and said with a smack, because it can be seen that the diameter of this battleship is at least more than 200 meters, minus the space in the cockpit, engine warehouse and energy storehouse, the thickness of each side of the warship, the most conservative estimate is 50 or 60 meters! Although a laser beam can penetrate metal, it is impossible to penetrate such a thick metal, and it has a shield.
