Chapter four hundred and fourteen bad news came
Chapter 414: Bad news comes
Zhao Li was not surprised that Kang Hongyuan said such words. Ban Yunchan had long told Zhao Li that as long as Zhao Li develops step by step, he will never be missing from the position of the command headquarters.
"Old Kang, I haven't heard of these benefits for you!" Zhao Li knew very well what kind of person Kang Hongyuan was. He said it was complicated and complicated, but he said it was simple but also very simple. He couldn't say that everything was based on interests. However, it was always good to ask for the interests first when encountering things.
"Is this more necessary?" Kang Hongyuan replied with a smile: "If you have benefits, will I be empty-handed?"
Now Zhao Li and Kang Hongyuan are already in the relationship between prospering and losing, and these needless to be clear. Without a strong backer, one cannot gain a foothold in the political arena by relying on political skills alone. This backer is Zhao Li, a powerful military group, and Ban Yunchan’s stronger economic group. Relatively speaking, Kang Hongyuan has the thinnest foundation, but in terms of political reputation, Kang Hongyuan is the strongest. The three of them complement each other, but they are the key iron triangle that can guarantee the interests of this small collective.
According to Kang Hongyuan's analysis, Zhao Li had no abnormal movements. He had no other actions except for posting a first-level war mobilization to his military region. He was either in the command center or the old warden every day.
"Boy, if you don't go to your military affairs, why are you swaying in front of me all day long?" The old warden likes Ban Yunchan's filial wine. His daily life is very comfortable. He doesn't care about Zhao Li, but he has another person to accompany him to enjoy. However, this time is not a good time!
"I have done everything I need to do, what special military affairs are there?" Zhao Li shook his head, took a sip with the old warden, and also like the old commander, raised his legs high on the table, which was very comfortable.
"Now that the ups and downs are in a state of turmoil, don't you have any other ideas?" The old warden glanced at Zhao Li and asked casually.
"Everyone has their own plans, and no one is willing to jump out on his own initiative. What else can I have?" Zhao Li said his original intention, his face was not blushing, and his heart was not beating.
"With your current resources, even if you declare independence, no one dares to face you directly with the White Niao Military Region?" the old warden laughed and asked. He was telling the truth. Zhao Li's current resources and two masters can pretend to be powerful. As the old warden said, even if he is independent, no one will choose him as his opponent as the first time.
"That's right, but it's not interesting." Zhao Li also admitted that he had such strength, but the old warden asked this question, which was definitely not aimless. When answering, Zhao Li did not hide it, and he said whatever he thought.
"I don't know how many people broke their heads and wanted to make a name for themselves, but you actually said it was boring!" The old warden didn't know whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied with Zhao Li's seemingly undesirable performance, or if he was the principal, he would have appreciated him very much!
"It's really boring!" Zhao Li has not become very interested in these things since Ban Yunchan helped him analyze his psychology last time. Anyway, as long as he has experienced, he can get everything that those people want, so why should he take huge risks to speculate? People with qualifications than him can't stand him, and those who can stand him do not have his qualifications, which is that simple.
"Don't care about the thoughts of us old guys." The old warden might have misunderstood Zhao Li's meaning, but instead revealed his secret to him first: "I have no obligation to the Federation, nor does that old guy. Do whatever you want to do."
This sentence is a very reassuring expression of Zhao Li, and it also indirectly illustrates the old warden's current attitude towards the current situation. He completely wants to retire.
Although the old warden had clearly stated his attitude, Zhao Li still had the same moral character as he was not impatient. The current situation cannot be solved by just climbing high and calling. He just needs to obey the above orders.
The normal situation of the White Niao Military Region made the commander very relieved. With Commander Wang Yao and Commander Li Liqing in charge, at least the remaining federal military regions are very stable and are preparing for war in an orderly manner.
The head of the federal government and the current ruling leader ultimately did not have the courage to declare war on more than a dozen planets at the same time. Not to mention the families of the warriors on more than a dozen planets are distributed throughout the Federation. How big a public opinion will arouse a counterattack if the war is needed. The resources that the war alone needs to use will be enough to bring the federal government a huge deficit.
Whether to go to war with an independent planet is all right to the parliament to vote. War is a matter related to all the people, and decisions cannot be made easily just because of the will of the head of government. This is a responsible attitude towards the people, at least as the propaganda says.
The performance of the ruling party is very unbearable in the eyes of many opposition parties. They see hope and begin to jump up and down in the parliament, form alliances and destroy the situation, and do everything they can.
The media from all sides felt very disappointed with the response of the federal government. Many people demanded a quick decision to order war and capture all the war criminals who undermined federal unity. However, another group of people with family members in the army did not think so, and asked the Federation and those independent planets to sit at the negotiating table and settle the dispute peacefully.
The latter's request was supported by the group of people who suffered in the last War of Independence. The opinions of both sides were evenly matched and no one could convince anyone.
The people's will is like this, and in the parliament, there is also a dispute between the people who represent the interests of major consortiums. There has never been a united person in this world.
Time was spent in such endless disputes. The military waited for the government's reaction but missed the best opportunity to attack. Soon, more than a dozen planets began to communicate with each other, find directions for cooperation, and form several different alliances. Of course, they also had hostile relationships.
Fortunately, the soldiers' emotions were comforted well. The soldiers, especially those who were already independent, were extremely excited when they heard that the planet where their homes were declared independent. Fortunately, the army's life was very orderly and restrained many out-of-control people.
Within the Federation, a major reshuffle of power began, the ruling party was incompetent, and the opposition parties were active everywhere. Within the army, a group of powerful groups of forces were further consolidated. For example, the group of commanders of Li Liqing, who belonged to Zhao Li, had become the backbone of the largest unbreakable federal army.
Another group of people, senior officers who were implicated independently of some planets but did not make mistakes, had a different situation. The Command did not seem to be completely at ease with these people, but it did not dampen their enthusiasm. It was just that according to wartime practice, the logistics of the Command was taken over by the Command. Several military commanders were still the commanders of the Military Region, but several people exchanged places for each other and served in other military regions.
In this way, these people whose foundations have been disrupted have no independent capital and can only rely on several largest groups to ensure their own interests.
Although such an arrangement hurts the authority of some people, it can ensure the stability of the remaining army of the entire Federation in a short period of time.
Although the Federation has not yet declared a state of war, those independent planets are not stupid enough to take the initiative to attack the Federation and act as the first birds, and everyone has developed their own heads. To be honest, just building a complete financial system after independence is enough for these people to have a headache.
Fortunately, everyone got enough breathing time. When they finished the hidden dangers caused by hasty independence, they realized that if they really want to develop, just one planet is far from enough to meet the resource needs of the entire planet.
The edge planets became popular again, and the black market trade was in full swing. With the example of the independent army in the previous article, these planets could not wait to bring a large number of planetary specialties to exchange what they needed on the black market of the edge planet. In just a few months, the benefits that the edge planets could see had already surprised those who were accustomed to the high profits of arms and drug trading.
Similarly, it seems that even Kang Hongyuan and Ban Yunchan did not expect that the Fringe Planet would make such a huge profit in this case. Although they had been fully prepared before, they still felt a little unbelievable when facing the numbers that even they couldn't help but be surprised.
"So much?" Zhao Li's reaction was exactly the same as Ban Yunchan and Kang Hongyuan. But after all, he was not an economic maker, and he was just surprised and soon returned to normal: "If I had known it, the White Bird Planet would have become a black market trade!"
This joke made Kang Hongyuan and Ban Yuchan laugh and cry. However, making money is always a good thing. Anyway, even within the federal government, the finances of each planet are independent. You can spend the money you earn by yourself, as long as you pay enough taxes from the federal government. But even so, the marginal planets are still firmly in the throne of the planet with the highest income in the near future.
It seems that Zhao Li and Kang Hongyuan are making a fortune, but there is a huge undercurrent hidden. They either get enough military supplies, or expand their territory, or private grudges, and a small friction begins between alliances formed by independent planets.
Do you dare to challenge the planet that is weaker than yourself without challenging the Federation? The small friction quickly escalated into local conflicts, and local conflicts then turned into large-scale declarations of war. Except for the initial Chen Yong's independent army, all other independent planets were involved in the war. Chen Yong's power was too great, and even if those people were alliances, they would not dare to touch Chen Yong's bad luck. They were troublesome people who were headaches for the entire Federation.
It may be very normal on the planet, but the firefighting in outer space is already a bit crazy. When the independent planet suddenly became in chaos, the ruling party of the federal government began to jump out again.
After a long-term argument, it seemed that they had already expected that independent guys would soon kill each other, so they had not involved the Federation in the war for a long time.
Although this statement seems a bit shameless, their previous actions have indeed achieved such an effect. The so-called "constant response to changes" is not only applicable to Zhao Li, but also to the federal government.
Originally, these independent guys had their own thoughts, and it was very normal to cause such a result. However, no one expected that they would be involved in the dark clouds of war. On the contrary, the Federation, which should have launched the war, was standing by and watching. The development of the world was a bit unpredictable.
Although such development may be unintentional, it is indeed the most beneficial situation for the Federation. No one can say now whether the Federal Head of the Federation really foresaw such a situation or accidentally. However, in Zhao Li's opinion, it may be both. Zhao Li is not clear about the ability of the Federal Head of the Federation, but the two commanders Wang Yao and Li Liqing should not be that confused, right? Without the consent of both of them, it seems that it is impossible to make the army so stable.
Zhao Li had no intention of commenting on the government's performance. He now only wanted to know how those planets that started war will develop afterwards. Because at present, war is still limited to space, but who knows what the next step will be?
When everyone was worried, the commander-in-chief made an amazing decision that the Supreme Commander would conduct inspections of major military regions in the near future.
This is an initiative to stabilize the morale of the army and the people, but it is just right at this time. It happened that the Supreme Commander's inspection will definitely boost the morale of the army and the people.
The commander specially informed not to have special receptions, and then embarked on the inspection itinerary. According to the plan, the commander will arrive at the Bainiao Military Region in ten days for inspection. Although it is not the first one, it is the planet that has stayed the longest, which also gives Zhao Li a face.
Zhao Li arranged the task of receiving the inspection of the commander, and still stayed with the old warden to enjoy life. When his martial arts reached their level, he no longer needed to practice hard and live a quiet life, cultivate his mind and cultivate his nature. Maybe one day he would be able to break through again.
"General!" The figure of Christine suddenly appeared on the communicator on the table. She seemed very panicked as she was in charge of the command center.
"What happened?" Zhao Li was very surprised. Christine seemed to have never been so panicked.
"The fleet inspected by the commander was ambushed and attacked on the way, and the entire army was wiped out, including the escort fleet!" Christine quickly reported the bad news he had just received to Zhao Li.
Tag, the wine glass in Zhao Li's hand suddenly fell to the ground, shattering.
