A huge, oval mahogany round table is surrounded by more than a dozen former Senators of Keha. They are basically all elders over fifty years old. People in their thirties can stand between them.
Counted as young people.
Most of the congressmen were very simple. They neither wore crimson robes with gold rims nor carried canes that symbolized nobility, but they still used words like nobility. Some people wore round glasses, but they passed by
Vision in both eyes remains good with laser correction.
Where Korhal's Senate was established, the members there were the colonial squires and the leaders of the colonial ships. For more than a hundred years, the Senate had never been a place where civilians could speak loudly.
Angus didn't like these people, but no matter what the purpose was, these people had supported him in the parliament. Facts also proved that these people really thought about Korhal 4.
Although in the few years they served as senators, the wealth and power of these people expanded exponentially.
The election of new MPs is still in the counting stage, so Angus can only discuss with these MPs the establishment of a constitution and the appointment of a new government.
Fortunately, the advantage of a small number of people is that new laws and proposals are passed much faster, and Angus will not spend a lot of time listening to those well-fed and idle MPs arguing about whether a change in a law violates the Tyranids.
They argued about the Federal Constitution for four or five days.
But for Angus, who has been in politics for many years, this does not give him the sense of accomplishment of fighting with others. When only a dozen or so people are watching him, Angus will be anxious because of the lack of attention.
disturbed.
It was as if Angus couldn't sleep once he was far away from the center of politics. He simply couldn't imagine
In just one morning, the new Senate passed thirteen bills related to increasing government intervention in the economy, as well as the Global Industrial Recovery Act. At the same time, new heavy factories, capital and technology are being built everywhere in Korhal.
All came from several Tarsonis creation families and Umoyan people who secretly cooperated with the Mengsk family. More than two million Korhals who were unemployed due to the war entered the factory to work.
Because it is located on the main star world that is the core area of the Tyranid Federation and has a prosperous economy, Korhal is operating at full speed under the leadership of a unified and efficient government.
But the disadvantages of Korhal 4 are also obvious. Compared with other edge worlds where uprisings are breaking out, they are too close to Tarsonis and too conspicuous.
"We will eliminate all slums before 2499, so that there will no longer be hungry people in this world!" At this time, Angus impassionedly threw out another of his heavy promises, and there were people next to him.
Use non-technological means to record his words on paper using shorthand.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the front hall of the Palatine Chamber was opened. Angus and the MPs all looked at Augustus, who was wearing a dark gray general's uniform and a wide-brimmed military cap with gold tassels.
The congressmen were already very familiar with the Korhal Eagle, which made his father extremely proud. Compared to this, they were much more interested in the former ghost agent Sarah Kerrigan who followed him closely behind him.
"Augustus, what's going on? You look a little anxious." Angus cleared his throat and said to his son.
"Do you still have time to play the meeting game with them? Now we don't need a parliament, we can just announce decrees." Augustus said: "This is a time of war, and Korhal only needs someone who can tell the truth."
"The people of Korhal need their masters, and the Council needs its shackles."
"Don't write this down, and don't say this to anyone." Angus looked serious, and his cold gray eyes scanned everyone present, like an old wolf with a fierce flash of light.
Augustus never admitted that he was a revolutionary soldier fighting for the people. In Angus' view, the only reason why he was willing to lead the Korhal Revolutionary Army was just to protect his mother Catherine and sister Dorothy.
There was no councilor present who spoke rudely for Augustus. They survived this change of power while still maintaining their past status, not because they were more capable, but because they were on the right team.
In the days after the Korhal War of Independence, all corrupt officials in Korhal were tried one by one by Augustus's revolutionary army. They sat in prison cars and cried loudly until they were imprisoned by the Stillling River.
Shooting.
For three days, the red river flowed down the river like a river of blood.
The parliamentarians knew what role they should play, because Augustus was the real wolf of the Mengsk family. He lacked the most basic respect for the nobles and officials, and slaughtered them like cattle and sheep.
"You just chaired a meeting of August's National Security Council and you hope that spy agency will be effective," Angus said.
"You are very impatient." He said: "Did you also get the news that the uprising on Antiga Prime failed?"
"I just learned about it just now." Augustus said: "No one thought that there is a federal fleet in a galaxy 4 light-years away from the Antiga galaxy. The news sent back to us by the uprising organizers shows that that
It's Gamma Squadron of the Federation Fleet."
"Gamma Squadron leveled Fort Ansu with nuclear bombs, turning 200,000 people into ashes, and more people were severely burned. Radiation permanently damaged the local environment, and mutated creatures appeared one after another like evil ghosts." He continued.
explain.
"An unknown plague broke out in the Pride of Ayanami, and the resistance there suffered heavy losses due to excessive non-combat attrition."
"What a misfortune. This is the third failed uprising of the people of Antiga." Angus frowned: "But what happened to Lingshui Pride?"
"There is no direct evidence that it was a type of viral weapon, but the timing of the outbreak was too coincidental." Augustus said: "All the news media suppressed the matter, and the lack of authenticity reports were misleading.
People from other planets in the Federation."
"Compared with them, Korhal, who is closer to the core world, is luckier. Most of the Federation fleet still stays in the edge world, increasing bargaining chips for the federal government and the Kaimorian Federation."
"But they've been talking for three months." Angus asked as if talking to himself.
"The Kaimorian Consortium has been stalling for time to transfer their assets, but how long can the Consortium hold on?"
"We have to prepare for the worst." Augustus sighed: "The newly established agency is training spies, but at present we mainly rely on Umo Yang's spies. These people will use various means to
In exchange for the support from senior federal officials and the Founding Family."
"At the same time, our fleet has begun to take shape. At my request, Umo Yang used a lot of resources to repair the Hyperion. It is expected that I will be able to see a 'brand new' warship in half a month.
Line cruiser."
"During this period, in addition to building Korhal's defenses and preparing the army and people for a protracted war, I also plan to immediately lead a fleet to raid a federal base called Victor 5. The captured ghost agent told me
, there are twenty ghost agents stationed there.”
"Intelligence shows that there may be design drawings of new weapons in the computers there."
"Okay." Angus said, "You have a much better say than me in leading troops to fight."
"..."
"I have another question." After a long silence, Angus suddenly looked at Sarah Kerrigan behind Augustus.
"Son, you must let this federal assassin who killed my double be your personal bodyguard?"
"I think she is quite outstanding." Augustus thought seriously and said, "And I don't have any psychological burden because she wanted to assassinate you."
"No, I'm just worried about your safety." The old wolf of the Mengsk family was a little sad, but he was used to it.
