As the capital of the Federation, it is the largest island in the southern seas and also the most prosperous island.
Although the population living here is only just over 90,000, it is home to the largest heavy industry base and shipyard in the Federation.
Counting the destroyer Glory that has sunk into the sea, nine of the Federation's thirteen warships were built here, while the remaining four submarines were built at the submarine factories on Anle Island and Coral City.
After the armed forces took control of the presidential palace and the naval headquarters, Chalas, supported by federal marines, announced his inauguration as the new president and delivered his inaugural speech via radio.
It is with a deep heart that I tell you that our president has committed an unforgivable crime of treason."
"While our fleet has gained an absolute advantage and is about to achieve final victory, he actually plans to overturn the verdict of the crimes committed by our enemies! He attempts to use man-made evidence that distorts the facts to destroy the unity we have finally formed.
.”
"I will never allow such a thing to happen, even if that person is the person I once respected the most."
"Hunger, disease, forced labor, the suppression of dissent... everything is legal as long as you put on that blue coat, ask your fathers and grandfathers, they will tell you about those hermit crabs
What were they like before! Ask them! Who built the man-made island built in the 50th year of the Wasteland Era? Is it something that suddenly appeared half a century later, or has it been living there from the beginning?
You outsiders!"
"We were just lucky enough to be born in the shelter. The Era of Prosperity became ours, and everything built with the tools of the Era of Prosperity became our patent. And those of you who have endured it for generations
The survivors who endured a generation of suffering and stood up from the ruins have become monkeys in need of education."
"You mean Mr. Yu Taoli?"
"In fact, it is completely feasible. The Alliance's reputation in Silver Moon Bay seems to be wrong. We later supported the countries of Luoxia Province against the invasion war of the legion and its servant countries, but before that we did not take advantage of the opportunity.
Devour the kingdoms here."
And I heard that the Alliance and the Torch are old enemies.
Once I surrender to Sun Yuechi, this guy will definitely liquidate me as the vice president under the law, and arrange some crime to kill me.
However, at this moment, the island that initially ignited the industrial fire was covered by another tangible burning flame.
Seeing my acceptance, Li Minghui laughed and said. After receiving Jing's reply, Mu Da nodded, and the stone that had been weighing on his heart finally fell to the ground.
"Why did you draw the alliance away from your team?"
"He thinks, at most, you won't have a common tradition anymore, and you need to go to the Era of Prosperity, which is a hundred or so complete festivals. In fact, you have never thought about how bad the Era of Prosperity is, they all
I thought Lan Litou knew what this place looks like, but to be honest, if you really go here and take a look, there is nothing wrong with everything ending at the starting point on your feet."
.Just now, you have witnessed the darkest and most shameful page in the history of the Federation. In a shameful betrayal, you have only lost the Glory and the two hundred young men under the ship.
You have lost your president, you have lost the declaration you jointly signed, and you have lost the dignity that you only maintained for seven months."
"Ahem... You suggested using the name hermit crab. You have to find a way to win over the residents of Vault 70 who are also victims."
When I signed this declaration, I should have foolishly realized that I was not an opportunist and that there was no chance that I would come soon.
Including Mu Da, who received money from the alliance very early on.
But the authorities on Anle Island obviously don't have time to worry about those things.
What made me think even more was that I myself had somehow become a member of the Anle Island Military Government Council that drafted the new declaration.
As soon as this statement came out, there was a commotion under the conference table, and almost half of the people cast a surprised look at this guy.
No one believes that this guy is not crazy yet. I would even let the federal fleet kill each other for my own selfish desires.
Mu Da was called in when the meeting was halfway through, so when I left the door, the back of the conference table was almost full of people.
Yes.
The federation born out of righteousness is like a ball of sand pinched by hands. It has always been a real stone, and there is never enough time for it to turn into stone.
"We still have something in common with the residents of Vault 70. At most
The hermit crabs in Refuge 70 dare to go to the Baiyue Province to make their home, and these guys have been thinking about occupying the magpie's nest for a long time as soon as they climbed out of the sea. Li Minghui grinned and tasted
Before taking a bite, he said hastily.
Even if these people don't have some big airplanes, I really don't know how to evaluate this kind of thing. I can only say that we are really afraid of death and dare to ride down any weird means of transportation.
"Sun Yuechi tried to use lies to lead your federation into a bottomless abyss. That war was no longer a war, but a tool for me to seize power and eliminate dissidents. Now, that 'Laken' is wearing human skin.
I finally revealed my greedy appetite and fangs, trying to lead you back into the bottomless abyss."
"Thanks."
Only when we win can we create the correct memory and turn us into idiots who shoot themselves in the foot!
"That doesn't matter. The blue lingo at Chip Port calls himself Blue Gopher. Remember, it was the Weiland people who got the limo for us."
At the beginning of the speech, I announced the establishment of the Anle Island Authority, the inauguration of the Acting President and the Commander of the Federal Fleet, and declared war on the East Leste rebels in the name of the Constitution.
Anle Island Naval Base, a meeting related to the future destiny of the Federation is progressing in the combat conference room.
"You're being polite, would you like a drink?" "It's difficult."
Not to mention that we don’t have Sun Yuechi’s supporters internally. Even if some people are sent out of prison, it will take a certain amount of time to arrange for new people to take our place.
The alliance's undersea strength is indeed common, but after all, we are too far apart, and the undersea strength is almost non-existent.
"We established a new local authority composed of local survivors. Although it is acceptable from the perspective of the Xilan Empire royal family, the matter itself was not the empire's first move... and you always
It feels like a coincidence that we and mutants appeared in the Baiyue Strait at the same time."
"Until you achieve final defeat!" But I have no other choice.
Of course, the current situation in East Leste is the same. Since there are no people who support Yu Taoli, there must be no people who support the declaration and the democratically elected president.
"What you want to liquidate is never an ocean current power station, but everything that has been lost in the past century! We feel that this power station is our credit, and only we are the survivors of the Awami League. Only we deserve it.
We have an unconnected legacy, and your blood and sweat are as valuable as your opinions. You are just us.
The beasts of rebuilding utopia, let us take our arrogance and go back to the underground! This utopia does not have your name at all!
The captain of the destroyer continued.
"Maybe... it's because of the managers." "Is there a more suitable opportunity than now." Of course, there are not some refugees in Coral City. Maybe I should really think about it.
"Perhaps it is enough for the manager to not have the original manager... The work of the tailor must be passed down from generation to generation. Before this villain leaves, you can't engrave my name on the same
At the door of the shelter where you should die, thank me and the Prosperity Era for the blessings bestowed on you together, commemorate my birth and departure together, and hold hands to discuss how to take the future."
After all, none of my ancestors have ever been a shelter dweller, or they almost became one of the lucky ones who escaped from the shelter.
"What about the roundabout? Is there any new news?" Commander Charas flicked the ashes under the ashtray and pondered for a moment before looking at the adjutant beside him.
Civil War... indeed.
Seeking help from the Alliance is indeed not a way to solve the problem. At most, these people are less reliable than the madmen in the Haiyia Province.
"certainly."
These passionate words echoed under the square behind the Presidential Palace, echoed in the shipyard, echoed in the military camp, and also echoed in the settlements of East Leste...
"What now? What are they going to do?"
Once the war was over, Mr. President opened his once-closed eyes again and restarted the investigation into the reasons for the sinking of the Ocean Current Power Station.
That was originally an issue that could be resolved through negotiation and mutual compromise, but a military and political adventure put all disputes on hold.
Heavy white clouds are gathering in the sky below Dongwen and Anle Island, but at this moment, under the empty sea, there is a tranquil scene of the setting sun.
Mengge raised his head. We can only choose ourselves! We must choose ourselves.
At that time, the captain of a destroyer said urgently.
The new authorities will definitely do that. After all, as long as the real prisoners are liquidated, this will
The helper can complete the separation from the past, and then hold the hands of the residents of Vault 70 towards a new era.
Half of the residents on the island are working personnel of the federal navy and their families, or at most, personnel engaged in naval front-line business.
There are only about 70,000 people living under that picturesque island, but it is home to the smallest naval forward base in the Federation.
Even if she wanted to face her former comrades-in-arms, Yu Taoli could only make the most practical choice - to declare the East Leste authorities illegal in the name of the law and establish a new authority on Anle Island.
The adjutant also sighed and nodded heavily.
The federal patrol only has a dozen long-range slow boats, so we can at least help with mine laying.
"He already said that we are residents of the same shelter, so naturally we think the same way... It would be worse if you pay more attention."
As the chatter box opened, everyone immediately began to communicate with each other, and the solemn atmosphere behind the conference table also dissipated.
As for the shame, it was the first time I saw our "enemy" face to face in the seven months since the two sides started the war...
"Yes, you don't have any advantages at all, but this little advantage is worth mentioning compared to the disadvantages. Is there a reactor manufacturing plant in Coral City? You produce fusion with a weaker silent effect.
It is difficult for power submarines and conventional submarines to be used in formal operations... Moreover, the smallest shipyard and ammunition factory in the Federation are under our control, Yu Taoli."
At the same time that Sun Yuechi delivered his inauguration speech, the federal vice president, deputy commander of the federal navy and the lowest commander of the Anle Island Naval Base, General Chalas, who had been pushed to the backstage, also made a public announcement through the military radio of Anle Island.
speech.
Although legally speaking, I am the first candidate for acting president, but it is a pity that Sun Yuechi has not yet become the actual ruler of Yu Tao.
Even considering their own strategic needs, these people really have no desire to intervene in the situation in the southern seas.
The ring-shaped island is located in the westernmost part of the southern sea, close to the Baiyue Strait. It is located just behind the seven islands of the Anle Island Authority. It is also the island with the smallest population in the federation. There was a silence under the conference table.
What's more, I am not one of the people who drafted the declaration. It is an exaggeration to say that I am the founding father of the Federation. Moreover, I am a weak and hard-line person with a low voice in the military.
The officer sighed.
The longer it takes, the better it will be for the Anle Island authorities.
Meng Ge looked at me in confusion.
Whether or not Sun Yuechi has prepared a speech, he still needs this thing. Speech is like an innate ability for Sun Yuechi.
Faced with everyone's doubts, the officer who made the suggestion continued in a serious tone. "Alliance?"
But it is precisely because of this that people who are directly or indirectly involved in the ocean current power station sinking incident are his natural allies!
The smallest industrial bases and shipyards are in the north. The northern islands do not have a small enough population, technology, and industrial capabilities to transform technology into war machines.
The submarine captains who raised objections hesitated for a moment, but thought that this was a reason to refute, and finally nodded.
As for ourselves and our supporters, no one will thank us for our contribution to the division of the Federation. We can only spend the rest of our lives behind bars.
Holding a mug in each hand, Li Minghui also waited for my answer, then thrust one of the mugs into my hands and sat down on a bench nearby.
Mengge looked at me in surprise. The former paused for a moment and continued.
As a conservative, I may be supported by a small number of survivors and establishment personnel, but my voice in the military is far greater than my own.
Just like this guy chose any means to kill President Bei Dao and Captain Mongo,
And even considering the strength of that potential ally, the introduction of internal forces into the affairs of the southern sea area itself is worthy of concern.
However, he turned a blind eye to the Ocean Current Power Station and appointed himself as chief of staff. Instead, he tried to merge two factions that had no consensus through political speculation.
I had just finished speaking and was waiting for the captain of the Dolphin to reply when a hot, quiet and turbid voice came from the side.
"There are problems, but there are no problems as soon as it ends. For example, in Boulder City, we did very badly after the white card went bad. Singularity City also did something wrong at the end, but we just took some detours before losing the help of the War and Construction Committee.
.Even including the empire you passed by for a long time, whether General Rowell and the survivors at that time were serious enough, it is indeed a human job to use the eight million square kilometers of grassland to accommodate hundreds of millions of refugees.
.....Of course, the same goes for you. You even did very bad things until seven months later. You can negate what you have done in the past two centuries because of the chaos of those seven months.
Li Minghui paused for a while, sighed and said, "...this is us?"
Most of the people sitting there knew something about the destruction of the Ocean Current Power Station.
It must be said that it was just speculation later on, so the recording left by Captain Mengge hardly proves the bad blood between the Sun Yuechi authorities and the Torch Church.
First, Captain Mongo's last words were sent, then there was the news of the sinking of the destroyer Glory, and then there was Chief of Staff Sun Yuechi's inaugural speech full of lies.
However, when the incredible news came that "the Glorious was wrecked due to mutiny among the crew of the ship", not many people were willing to doubt the lies spouted by this guy.
Especially in a place like that.
"It's as if you were the ones who were created out of thin air. You are the ones eating our stuff and using our stuff. You are the ones living outside the settlements we built because your parents are small enough and have never lived in this prosperous era.
One second! Ask them about the things that are always dead outside their homes, and ask us if that’s what happened!”
These guys sitting under the big ships and small cannons have never said that we need a president who follows the rules. Our ambition is far beyond just being a federation, and it is far beyond being just a city wall for the federation.
And that guy did do something stupid. "Where is this Golden Gallon Port?"
"really."
Even if it's just a few slow boats and minelayers, we have to make every effort to get it over...
There was a lot of discussion under the conference table, but Mu Da, who was sitting in the corner of the conference table, found that he could not say a word.
"What's the problem?"
The director of the front office was slightly stunned and looked at the captain with an intriguing look, as if he was wondering why I would ask such a question.
"One battleship, one cruiser, eight destroyers, and one attack submarine." Seemingly thinking that the situation was too favorable, the director of the front office tried to save face and added, "But the submarine manufacturing plant is
On your side, you don’t have any advantage at all.”
Although President Beijiao is the commander of the federal navy, this is just a duty assigned to me by the declaration or the constitution, and the soldiers have sincerely supported me in this position.
My lips moved for a moment, then I nodded slightly and said.
If you help the Torch Church hide the truth, you will definitely be punished, and so will all the officers not involved.
Another officer sitting far away from me rubbed his chin with his index finger, thought for a moment, and nodded before saying.
"Is that appropriate?"
"Isn't there anyone else here?"
"You also agree that the matter of the Ocean Current Power Station still needs to be investigated, but the mutant corpses appearing on the north side of the circular island are indeed suspicious!"
"You did it, your new employer did it."
Of course, Sun Yuechi denied that he had done something stupid. This was because he lied so little that even I believed it.
In fact, until the soldiers on duty at the pier received Captain Mongo's last words from the captain of the underwater patrol, there were still not many supporters of Sun Yuechi in that naval base, and they even used the phrase "that was for the division of the Federation" as an excuse.
Yu Taoli’s behavior is justifiable.
After taking a look at the people sitting behind the conference table, I lowered my voice and asked loudly to the director of the front office who was sitting next to me.
As long as you loosen the hand holding it, it will fall apart into its original shape.
The president of Beidao agreed to accept legal trial, but he resisted and attempted to launch a coup, and he has not been killed by your soldiers yet."
"Well, we picked up the treasure synthesized from the white box outside the shelter 79, and came to Camelback Kingdom to commission it to be planted in a local plantation... It seems that the coffee beans must be cultivated in a lowland environment.
, the altitude of the Zhuobar Mountains is just right.
Mengge hesitated slightly.
A trace of surprise appeared on Meng Ge's face. A relaxed and depressed atmosphere came over his face.
Dealing with the military pressure from Yu Tao is the most pressing issue we need to solve.
It must be said that the round island is the first man-made island completed by the survivors in the southern sea, so it is the first natural island to ignite the industrial flames, even earlier than the opening of the small door of Vault 70. And it is precisely because of the
The parts produced under that island have lost the underwater wonder of Coral City, as well as the heavy industry centers and small shipyards that came to East Leste.
"We're pretty good at enjoying it." Yu Tao also took a sip hastily, but was so bitter that he couldn't help but frown his cheeks and brows.
It is precisely for this reason that we must do our best to win it over to the Anle Island authorities.
"...Does that count as a civil war?"
"Yu Taoli?" Li Minghui was stunned, then smiled and waved his hand, "He
I misunderstood, it’s none of this guy’s business. You’ll look down on me very much in the future, but since you went to Dawn City to talk to me, you’ve discovered that this guy is actually a very clueless person, and I’m working very hard to help you.
My lower body has been patched by the jacket I have worn for a century, but one person’s power is too great in the face of small forces.”
Mu Da was stunned. He thought that our appeal on the side of the law was so strong, so he couldn't help but ask.
Another submarine captain retorted.
Looking at the ignited pupils on the podium, Sun Yuechi announced the final result in a calm and solemn tone.
But when that moment really came, I still felt a sense of sadness in my heart.
"You are definitely compromising to the beast, and you will never accept a peace maintained by lies again. What you need is a real split!"
Meng Ge looked at me. Anle Island.
It is true that both conservatives and radical retreaters need a federation, but their motives are actually exactly the same. The latter seeks equality of identity and political rights, while the former seeks to escape the shackles of the "ghosts" of the prosperous era.
Having witnessed the entire coup, Mu Da never imagined that the memory card he brought to Anle Island would cause such a small disturbance that it could unite the entire federation.
This guy is almost a "pedantic" bureaucrat in both his character and his style of life, and both the officers and himself think so.
This delayed the arrival of the crisis to a certain extent, but also caused the underwater patrol to be labeled as a "sanctuary faction" politically.
"From now on, Anle Island will once again deny the legitimacy of the East Lesteese authorities! At the same time, you call on the survivors on other islands to split up and fight side by side with you! For your future! For all the survivors living in that sea area
By!"
"It makes no sense. These people even allow the feudal kingdom of Luoxia Province to continue to exist, as long as the local royal family abolishes slavery and realizes equality under the law... And on that point, you are better than these feudal lords.
We have gone too far, and there is no reason for us to dictate your affairs."
"Has he thought of this?"
"It's just your humble opinion. Maybe...the problem lies in the profession of manager itself. To be honest, your manager was originally just the manager of Vault 70. You used your own methods to select the manager.
Of course, there are no problems with a manager, but the key is that before the door is opened...your managers only need to manage the shelter, not the eighteen islands and an undersea settlement."
I actually had no intention of getting there, and even two months later I had a vague feeling that something would happen if I went up there.
"There are only seven governors."
"Your great-grandpa has been lying outside the hibernation capsule for a hundred years, but your great-grandma is a resident of the island. It has been said that your grandfather still bears the mark of not having a blue suit on his body. In fact, up to your father's generation, it is still
There is not much left. Even your education was completed in Coral City, and many engineers from the Federation are also here, and they even read the same textbook as you."
After all, it was this manager, Mr. Chen Jianhong, who separated the undersea patrol from the federal fleet and placed it under the command of the Ministry of Finance under the cabinet.
If this settlement turns to Yu Taoli, the consequences will be disastrous.
"The governor here is an opportunist. In other words, he has been ignored. In the call back, I expressed that I wanted to take sides... You even felt that I might want to leave the Federation and join the Alliance."
The commander frowned. "Can you ask a question?"
"That's right. You have tainted a little bit of our habits, but you think that's a good thing."
The warmth that spread into his palms through the cup wall dissipated the heat brought by the sea water. Yu Tao sat silently next to Captain Chen and said something casually.
After a pause, I asked the question that had been weighing on my mind for a while.
"Not many people responded to your broadcast?" the adjutant said, shaking his head.
"Bad stuff... where did he get it?"
Thanks to him, the nuclear-powered cargo submarine rescued two hundred crew members under the destroyer, including himself.
It was with the acquiescence of the fleet stationed in East Leste that these mutants were able to pass through the northern patrol area of the Federation and penetrate deep into the heart of the Federation.
"Champion's brand coffee beans, you personally have added a little sugar and milk to know whether they suit your taste. Try it."
The adjutant sitting next to the commander frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask.
"Actually, in those days, before you learned about the other people's shelters, you never seriously thought about the fact that there is no difference between you."
At that moment, an officer suddenly spoke.
There were whispers behind the conference table.
A series of shocking things connected together completely aroused the anger of all the soldiers and officers in the base.
Both Yu Tao and Anle Dao are suffering from the pain caused by chaos at this moment.
After drinking up the first cup of coffee, I looked at Li Minghui and asked.
"You agree, that war has long been just your war. The torch has been mixed up since the end! Captain Mengge's last words must have been given by the scriptures. There is no doubt that the real murderer who destroyed the ocean current power station was not
torch!"
"maybe."
"You have no choice. That is the only way to win. And just when you are determined, the traitors of the Federation have already taken advantage of the power of the torch. I am sure you will continue to go up firmly. You can only sink to the bottom of the sea with your principles.
.Li Minghui shrugged his shoulders.
After hearing the conversation between the two, another officer sitting next to him coughed heavily and spoke in a lowered voice.
At that time, I suddenly realized something. I looked at the front office director who was sitting aside and touched my arm with his elbow.
"You plan to take advantage of the fact that the Federation fleet is in chaos and go directly to Vault 70.
"The declaration signed by the perpetrators is no longer valid. A new cabinet will draft a new code and you will now be acting president."
After glancing at my colleagues who were discussing coldly around the conference table, I looked again at the patrol leader sitting next to me.
I never thought that in just seven months, we who were once so divided would be broken into eight pieces...
"Isn't that a problem?"
The director of the front office looked ugly and said loudly. Mu Da swallowed involuntarily.
The man nodded.
"You don't have a single cruiser, two destroyers, eight submarines... If you are considering refitting some civilian ships, that's all for now.
I want to do that.
Pillowing his head against the wall, Mengge closed his eyes and sighed. "Yes."
After confirming that those guys will follow Sun Yuechi to commit stupidity and deeply reflect on their past words and deeds, we will release those guys from outside the white room.
"Where's the fleet?"
The people who followed this guy were also lunatics. The officers who were loyal to the Constitution immediately took action and sent Sun Yuechi's cronies and associates out of the prison.
"That's right..." Yu Taoli shrugged her shoulders and said matter-of-factly, "You find that they may be right and there is indeed some difference between you."
Meng Ge didn't speak, he just looked at me quietly, waiting for my words.
Although this guy still holds the title of president, the actual authority in my hands has not far exceeded the powers given to me by the law. And the reason why I can successfully do that is undoubtedly because of the help of Yu
Officer Tao's support was supported by at least some people!
"......difficult."
"Isn't there any other explanation?"
Whoever settles his own internal chaos first and eliminates his opponents will become the new master of that sea area.
Looking at Captain Li Minghui approaching, Meng Ge, who had not yet changed his clothes, looked half grateful and half ashamed.
People stopped what they were doing and gathered behind the broadcast. Hatred and anger gradually ignited under the silent faces.
Li Minghui shook his head.
Compared with Yu Taoli's inauguration speech, General Chalas's speech was undoubtedly more hasty and less powerful.
A faint milky aroma penetrates the tip of the nose, mixed with a hint of sweetness and bitterness of coffee beans.
Li Minghui thought for a while and said.
I found that I actually don’t really hate these blue liars. What exactly brought us to where we are today.
And even if a hasty attack is launched now, it is almost possible to defeat the East Leste Fleet followed by the battleship flagship based on the configuration of the seven-wheel drive and eight-wheel drive submarines on Anle Island's next patrol.
The rest area of the USS Dolphin nuclear submarine.
In the Federation, I belong to the group of people who are relatively close to Vault 70, and I am considered a marginalized role among the federal authorities.
"That's true..."
This is what should be done now.
Looking at the silent Meng Ge, Li Minghui looked away from his frowning face, looked directly behind him, and spoke hurriedly.
The earliest shipyard in the southern seas is also located there, and the first batch of transport ships and seabed mining ships also departed from there.
