In mid-April, the new Korhal 4 Governor-General declared a state of war and global martial law, and implemented a wartime economic system. The new government also announced that metallurgy, transportation, spacecraft manufacturing, etc. would be used to fully support the war during wartime.
The industry was taken over by the Dominion Government.
Even so, the revolutionary enthusiasm has not faded. On August Square in the center of Stillling City, the golden wolf red flag of the Mengsk family and the five-pointed star flag of the Korhal Dominion were flying. The people of Stillling responded to Ange
The call for people's participation in politics took to the squares and streets to vote for the newly elected parliament of the Korkha Autonomous Territory.
Since the great revolutionary leader Angus Mengsk served as the new Senate President and concurrently served as the Governor of the Korhal system, taking charge of the government, constitutional amendments and legislative powers, the traces of the federal government's rule in Korhal have been swept away like dust after the rain.
.
In this square named after Augustus's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather, in a geometric right-angled building with Roman vault columns and burgundy glass windows, a new department was established - Augustus
National Security Council.
This is an intelligence agency that only recruits members of the Pan-Terran Revolutionary Party and is directly responsible to the Korhal Governor's Palace, bypassing the parliament. It has jurisdiction over the Korhal Dominion's First and Second Intelligence Bureaus, the Police Department and the newly established Psychic and Alien Investigations.
Bureau and other agencies.
On April 17, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, General Augustus, transferred Conor Ward, the former Chief of Staff of the Kerhal Revolutionary Army and a member of the Demons of Heaven, to serve as chairman of the committee and presided over the first plenary meeting.
This unnamed building was originally planned to replace the Palatine Hall as the New Council Hall. Construction of the new Council Hall began sixteen years ago, but was not completed until last year, nearly ten years later than the original deadline.
The funds spent during this period exceeded 6 billion federal credit coins, one hundred times the original budget.
The new chamber is the product of Senator Korhal's pursuit of power and luxury and his corrupt rule. Its construction was entirely funded by Korhal's taxes and corporate donations. Its interior decoration is extremely luxurious, decorated with countless beautiful rubies, and the floors are expensive
For the Josala Sun Wood, some of the building materials come from a galaxy a thousand light-years away.
However, when it came to the issue of abandoning the Palatine Chamber and using the new Chamber, more than a decade later the majority of traditionalist members of Parliament decided that they must continue to hold meetings in the original Chamber in order to follow the centuries-old tradition. Therefore, this gorgeous
The palace-like building was abandoned after it was built, and became more and more dilapidated because no one paid the high maintenance costs.
After the establishment of the new government, the New Council Hall finally played its due role. Today, it is the headquarters of Korhal 4's largest intelligence agency.
"The purpose of the establishment of the August National Security Council is to eliminate our internal enemies, the spies of the Terran Federation and the counterrevolutionaries who deliberately undermine the peace of Korhal. At the same time, the committee is also responsible for the supervision and review of government officials."
In the vaulted hall with the huge stained glass of the new council chamber, Augustus spoke to more than a dozen principals, deputy directors and committee members from various departments who attended the meeting and were personally appointed by Angus and vetted by ghost agent Sarah Kerrigan.
Give a speech.
"Foreignally, we need to send commissioners to infiltrate places such as Tarsonis and Antiga Prime. While collecting intelligence and stealing military technology and cutting-edge technology, we also need to appoint people who can control or influence the leaders of the Creation Family and members of the Federal Parliament.
The ultimate goal.”
"The Umoyan agents working in Tarsonis will assist us in this regard—"
"General Mengsk, I am worried that the internal review will evolve into cruel oppression of the people. The people will live in tension and suspicion all day long. The reports and revelations between each other will eventually turn into a disaster that tortures humanity. This is true.
It’s a lesson from history,” said a middle-aged man in formal attire.
"You don't have to worry about this issue. We have our own way of judging whether it has truly betrayed the revolution. Moreover, at present, our internal supervision is only limited to government officials and the military." Augustus then began to tell those sitting in the audience.
Attendees introduce the ghost agent behind them, Sarah Kerrigan.
"Natural psykers are a valuable asset to mankind, and the leaders of the Federation obviously only regard this as a threat." Augustus' voice was soft but powerful: "And I believe that psykers should never be treated like this.
Treat. In addition to killing, their telepathic ability - that is, mind reading can effectively help us eliminate corrupt people in the government and traitors in the revolutionary party and the army."
"In the Earth Age, psykers were regarded as heretics, and the Earth government, which pursued pure human supremacy, began to purge psykers, and part of our ancestors came from those arrested psykers." He said.
"If we believe that psykers are monsters and aliens, it is a denial of the ancestral lineage. In the years to come, in the course of civilization based on geological timescales, there will only be more and more psykers in the human race. I support it.
Human evolution, this is my position in the field of psychic research."
"Please believe that psychics are still one of us and work peacefully with them. On the public side, we must also create a good image of psychics and do positive and beneficial publicity."
"We have also been examined?" After Augustus finished speaking, the director of the First Intelligence Bureau was surprised: "But we didn't know about it."
"This is natural. There must be no traitors in the intelligence bureau." The director of the Second Intelligence Bureau immediately said: "The fact that we can sit here shows that we are absolutely loyal to Korhal."
"Psychics?" Connor Ward, chairman of Korhal's National Security Council and former Rocketeer of the Demon of Heaven, looked at Augustus: "I only recently learned about these superpowers living among us."
"I'll tell you the truth, if psykers are used to scrutinize ordinary people, then who should scrutinize and supervise the psykers themselves?"
"The answer is a more powerful psyker." Augustus pointed to the girl with long fiery red hair next to him: "This is Sarah Kerrigan, the director of the Psychic and Alien Investigation Bureau."
I don't know since when, this ghost agent who was once a federal assassin and intended to assassinate Augustus's father, Chancellor Angus, has been following him unswervingly, acting as an adjutant.
Kerrigan's daily image is a dark gray military uniform and a boat-shaped hat with a Revolutionary cap badge. She always has a sharp dagger and a shotgun on her hip.
Connor Ward stood up with a serious face and walked to the lecture table, as if to confirm that Kerrigan was a psyker. Then, Ward walked to Augustus and spoke with a small
the voice said.
"She's the reason why you transferred Lisa to be the director of the newly established national hospital? That's what they asked me to ask - I'm not curious at all."
This made Kerrigan look confused.
"What does this have to do with this meeting?" Augustus glared at Ward: "And you know that Lisa wants to go."
"Be serious." He emphasized: "You are the person I trust the most, Connor. I am very relieved to entrust this organization to you."
"I only formed this organization according to my father's ideas. As for making it operate as we originally expected and making the enemy frightened, that is your task."
"Treat your enemies without mercy." Augustus said solemnly.
