Chapter 597 Like before the dawn 6000-word chapter!
The moment the "Phoenix" was cut off from the ground, it was already like a stimulated hedgehog. The first-level combat alarm was sounded for the entire ship, the engines sprayed out blue flames and began to maneuver into the void, and the main guns started to fire.
After charging, all the secondary muzzles were opened. The eyes of all the soldiers who had entered the fighting position in advance were filled with anger, and their hands were already pressing the fire button.
The senior leaders of the independent fleet, including Hao Dai'er, were shocked and angry. What was originally just a routine war preparation actually turned into a crisis, and the crisis actually came from within the federation. Tang Lang and Mingyue Shang lost contact soon after they landed on the planet's surface.
It is almost impossible with the existing powerful communication technology, especially for the Phoenix, which has experienced the baptism of magnetic storms.
There is only one possibility. Electromagnetic shielding technology is used on the ground, so naturally I want to do something.
The other two frigates also received the notification that the Phoenix would launch an attack on the Liangxing. When they called Mingyue Shang and received no response, the two frigates from the central galaxy were not pedantic and quickly made the same move.
s Choice.
The armed patrol ships and rail guns located in the space of Daliang Star were obviously well prepared and showed signs of attack. Hao Daier's eyes flashed sharply, her hand moved towards the command seat, and she was ready to speak the word "attack" without hesitation.
There were Tang Lang, Mingyue Shang and brothers from a mecha battalion on the ground. They might be under attack. She only had so much time to think about it, and the attitude of those armed patrol ships had already said everything. Daliang Xing
,problem occurs.
At this moment, Tang Lang's image suddenly appeared. Tang Lang, who had already stepped out of the mecha, said with a calm expression: "Release the attack state, you need to retreat 1 million kilometers first."
"Commander!" Hao Daier was slightly anxious, and then Tang Lang continued: "This is an ordinary investigation. The misunderstanding will be eliminated soon. Follow my order. According to the confidentiality regulations, the entire army is not allowed to report this matter to the outside world without authorization.
, wait for one day before making a decision.”
"Yes!" Looking coldly at the armed guards behind Tang Lang, Hao Daier had no choice but to order: "The entire ship retreats, and the "Yu Qian" and "Li Dingguo" are also notified."
Seeing the three starships with arrogant arrows leaving the orbital circle and fleeing into the void under Tang Lang's order, Zhou Dunhou showed a smile again on his face, and once again invited Tang Lang and the fat man who asked to come with him.
They got into a well-protected armored vehicle, while Mingyue Shang got into a luxurious army aviation vehicle.
The mecha battalion commanded by Anji was dragged into the mecha camp next to the airport by a mecha regiment. Although the mecha battalion did not need to disarm in order not to intensify the conflict, there was a mecha regiment built around the camp.
Fortifications such as various alloy walls and alloy thorns to prevent mechas from charging have been installed, and self-propelled energy cannons have even been deployed further away. If there is any change in the mecha battalion in the camp, what will greet them will be even more terrifying than before.
blow.
According to common sense, they have basically lost their ability to resist.
The starship was forced to leave, Tang Lang and Mingyue Shang were taken away respectively, and the mecha guards were imprisoned. For officials of all sizes in Daliang Star, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, it was an armed investigation of a federal major general. Behind him might be the federal head of state and the chief of military affairs, but this was led by Vice Speaker Zhou. Even the senior officials of Liangxing did not dare to investigate this deeply rooted person.
A political figure who has been in Daliangxing politics for more than 20 years has some objections.
Although he is not the king of Daliangxing, in the past few decades, he has promoted as many Daliangxing officials as crucian carp across the river, from star commander to deputy star commander to police chief to guard commander.
They are all his disciples. It can be said that this is his private kingdom. His words are more effective than federal laws.
It’s not that no one dared to challenge his authority over the years, but in the end they all disappeared, either because of illness or a sudden disaster. The cause of death of everyone was extremely normal, but they just died. And over the years, maybe
He has ascended to the high position of deputy speaker of the parliament, and he also made an exception to allow forces with different opinions to exist in the government. It is just that opposition is opposition, but he is not strong enough to make any big waves, and the voice of opposition is only heard in the main beam.
As of now, very few appear in the Federation.
The Daliang Star Government Affairs Center is the highest-level government agency on the planet. Even if the star leader wants to implement a certain policy on the planet, he must conduct a government review here and get it passed.
This afternoon, a political proposal proposed by Tu Xingzhi, the head of Daliang Xingzhi, aroused the outcry of opponents.
The consolation delegation from the Heads of State's Office arrived in Daliangxing. The Daliangxing government was supposed to hold a welcoming ceremony to welcome them in the evening. However, because Lieutenant Ming Yueshang, an important member of the consolation group, was involved in Major General Tang Lang, who was under investigation by the FBI, the matter was postponed.
Lieutenant Mingyue Shang is temporarily resting in the most upscale ten-star Burj Al Arab Hotel in Liangxing, waiting for everything to come to light before holding a welcome ceremony. Due to the need for confidentiality, Liangxing and the FBI will not disclose the information to the federal supreme leader until one day
The agency will notify.
The most intense opponents are Mr. Sun, the current third-level member of the People's Assembly of Daliangxing, and Sun Jian, who serves as the mayor of a remote city in Daliangxing. The Sun family is a native of Daliangxing and is not considered an aristocratic family, but there have always been members of the family in Daliangxing.
He served in the government, and the most amazing person he has ever produced was once the deputy star commander of Daliang Star.
Mr. Sun also served as the mayor twenty years ago. After his retirement, he was still keen on the affairs of the Star. He was elected as an unpaid third-level people's councilor. He was a stubborn old man who caused headaches to all previous mayors. Fortunately,
The development of Daliangxing is booming. As long as it is not too outrageous, Mr. Sun, who is well versed in the officialdom of "there will be no fish in the clearest", will not embarrass the politicians.
Although his youngest son, whom he loved the most and was considered to be able to inherit his legacy, was demoted to Ganyuan City, the city with the worst environment on the planet, to be the mayor because of him, he did not provoke many big shots in the planet because of this.
It can be said that this is an 80-year-old man who is conservative and stubborn but can accept the dirt of officialdom and is very suitable for officialdom.
But today, he unexpectedly and resolutely raised objections, and even called "This is a conspiracy, not a political infighting, but involves federal security!"
He even pointed the finger at Zhou Dunhou, who was sitting in the middle of the rostrum.
And he is no longer a member of the Liangxing government. According to federal rules, he can only sit in the auditorium and is not qualified to sit in the collegial table, let alone the rostrum.
This also shows how great Zhou Dunhou's influence was on the political scene of Liangxing. He was so unruly and yet no one raised any objections, even though he had sat in that position for ten years.
At this time, Mr. Sun stretched out a finger and pointed forward: "Detaining a federal major general without authorization is a decision of the federal parliament. I can't refute it, but it is a disguised form of house arrest for important figures in the consolation group of the Heads of State, especially when the other party is our federation."
Daughter of the head of state, this kind of thing is no longer the so-called political strife, but a provocation. Especially when the Federation has entered wartime, it can even be called a rebellion. I hope that our Liangxing government can make the right decision.
Don't drag the whole country into the abyss because of one person. We are the people's pillars, not the pillars of one person."
"Shut up! Congressman Sun, please pay attention to your identity. You can question a certain resolution of the government, but you will be held legally responsible for making baseless and insinuation accusations." The star leader of Daliang Star spoke angrily.
"I suggest that Sun Changwei, who made rude remarks, be kicked out of the venue!" someone agreed.
"Who dares to touch my father, I will expose the ugliness in today's meeting to the public!" Although Sun Jian, the youngest son of Mr. Sun, is also in his 40s, he refused to give in to defend his father. He stood up on the spot and spoke with
His father stood together.
The atmosphere in the venue fell into silence for a while.
"Haha, Senator Sun, if I understand correctly, the person you just mentioned refers to me, Zhou Dunhou!" Zhou Dunhou, who was sitting on the rostrum, suddenly smiled and said. "First of all, let me point out to you
The first mistake. That is not called unauthorized seizure. It was a very cautious decision made by the Federal Bureau of Secrecy after study and study by the People's Assembly. After all, it was the first time in thousands of years that the Federation had detained a Victory Medal recipient.
The author initiated an investigation. With this authorization, the Daliangxing government and the garrison headquarters have verified that the key is correct. They are not working for me, Zhou Dunhou, but for Daliangxing and the entire Southwest Federation.
Then he stretched out two fingers and said, "Secondly, your so-called political strife does not exist. Ming Donglai's head of state and Changsun Hong are dispatching troops day and night to fight against the Jipeng Empire. We, the congressmen, can only help them.
Logistics work, the entire federation is serving the Patriotic War, the so-called "how can a general be attached if there is no skin left?", political strife at this time is just a statement made by some idiots who do not understand politics."
Then, his eyes became fierce, and he stretched out a third finger towards the two people standing opposite: "Thirdly, what you said, Representative Sun, is so righteous and awe-inspiring, making it seem like you are a federal hero, so let's take a look.
, what kind of business is your Sun family doing!"
Following Zhou Dunhou's voice, a video was played on the big screen in the venue: a group of soldiers broke into an office building like wolves and tigers.
The huge words "Hongtu Company" reminded everyone here that it was the property of the Sun family. The soldiers entered the office building and after searching in the warehouse, several large bags of white powder were found in an extremely secret place. The picture
At the end, a middle-aged man who was desperately trying to defend himself was hit hard on the head with a rifle butt, and then dragged out by one leg by a soldier.
"You are setting up a frame-up!" Mr. Sun, who is in his 80s, his beard twitching, pointed angrily at the smiling Zhou Dunhou.
Sun Jian was already clenching his fists, looking at his brother who was knocked to the ground on the screen with red eyes and wet eyes, watching the property belonging to the Sun family being used by a group of military police in such a low-level and shocking way.
Ridiculously shameful way to get banned.
Sun Jian felt a chill as he looked at this federal figure who was famous for his honesty and rigor. This was obviously not a spur-of-the-moment idea, but a premeditated plan. Everyone who dared to oppose him on Daliang Star may be on this list. The reason
It couldn't be easier, just shut them up.
And what was he trying to cover up with such deliberate efforts? Even if he came up with it, except for the house arrest of Mingyue Shang, which was not in compliance with the rules, the rest were all normal federal procedures.
It’s scary to think about it!
"Haha, do you know what that white powder is? Is it a frame-up? Can I suspect that you, Sun Changwei, also know something?" Zhou Dunhou smiled gently. "Now, since the two of you are directly related to each other,
You have committed a crime, and you are no longer qualified to participate in government affairs meetings. I sincerely hope that the two of you are not involved, otherwise, we may meet in court next time."
"Conspiracy always exists in the darkness, and darkness will be driven away by the sunshine sooner or later. You people will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history for becoming the accomplices of certain people." The old man turned around angrily and met his youngest son.
, and three other congressmen who were unwilling to agree, left the Government Affairs Center.
Stepping out of the gate of the majestic Government Affairs Center, the huge building behind him was glowing in the sunset. The old man, who was already over 80 years old, raised his head and looked at the sky. The wind was blowing, and the scenery in front of him was brilliant, but he only felt darkness and silence.
.
For an old man who has experienced countless things in the world, this is the greatest darkness he has ever experienced in his life, or in other words, the greatest darkness in the entire Daliang Star. A fear so intense that it is terrifying attacks him. Perhaps,
The person who did these things not only wanted to drag Daliangxing into darkness!
"Father..." Sun Jian originally wanted to say something to comfort the old man, but then he felt a little horrified.
There was no military police guard at the door of the Government Affairs Center, which was supposed to be heavily guarded. On the opposite side, there were three groups of about ten people walking towards this direction from three directions. Their eyes were fixed on the five people standing at the door.
.
Their hands have reached their arms.
No, Sun Jian subconsciously touched his waist, where he had his self-defense pistol.
Sun Changwei stopped his son from drawing his gun in vain, but his face showed a sense of pride, "Son, are you afraid of death?"
The teeth of the other three people beside him were already chattering.
Sun Jian had tears in his eyes, "Father, I will accompany you!"
"Okay, good son! Next, let us wait quietly! My Chinese ancestors once said: I recommend Xuanyuan with my blood. Perhaps our death can wake up the already numb Daliang Xing. We
The Sun family has never produced any big names, but today, haha, there are two of them."
"Puff puff!"
The chilling and dazzling energy beam weaved crazily in front of the Government Affairs Center, which represents the dignity of the federal government, and blood spattered into blood mist alternately.
The sober figures in the Daliangxing political arena who questioned the all-powerful Zhou Dunhou were purged in front of them! In the numb darkness, the people who still stubbornly wanted to light up the light were shamefully buried in a group of people who had become numb.
Before his eyes, he turned into several lifeless corpses, falling into darkness forever.
Mr. Sun was lying on his back, with a hole in his forehead that was as big as a thumb and burned by the scorching light. Lying on his body was his youngest son, Sun Jian, who had been shot several times and was already dead. The old man's eyes, all white in hair and beard, were open, reflecting the sky, and finally
A look in his eyes, engraved with a smile and sadness dedicated to his righteousness.
This scene was eventually engraved on the monument opposite the Daliangxing Government Affairs Center, reminding the newly appointed big shots sitting here: You can choose to be dark, but there will always be people who are stubbornly looking for the light, and the light will come sooner or later.
come.
And those who had witnessed it and were glad that they were on the right team, after the truth came out, their fate had been fixed and could not be changed. Just as he finally wished, the old man became the most famous big shot in the Sun family.
That said, they will eventually be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
After the victory of the war, the first decree of the new federal head of state was that the direct descendants of Daliangxing officials, large and small, who once sat in this center within five generations, were not allowed to serve in the military, politics, business, or education. The punishment was so severe that it created a new era.
The first of its kind in the history of federal crime and punishment in the democratic era.
.......
Fatty and Tang Lang entered the armored vehicle and then transferred to the rotorcraft. An hour later, they were sent to the most notorious and darkest "air pirate" prison in Daliang Star!
The people detained here are all armed smugglers and air pirates who rob small caravans in the starry sky. They are serious criminals who kill without blinking an eye, so the security level has always been extremely high. In addition to armed guards, there are also mecha troops. Obviously,
That was prepared for Tang Lang.
As soon as they got off the car, the two were escorted back and forth by eight armed guards toward the deepest part of the prison.
In the surrounding cubicles closed by steel gratings, some heard "dong dong!" heavy blows against the steel walls, and some gratings were shaken vigorously to make a "kuang kuang" sound, mixed with "little bitch".
Son!", "Tender skin and tender meat!" and the like, while some people did nothing. They just stood in the room and looked at them quietly, with stern eyes and hanging lips.
smile.
This place is like the bottom of hell. No matter how strong a soldier is, he may not be at the top of the food chain when he gets here, because there are no rules here.
Walking into a cell at the end, there were only two empty prison chairs. The two people sat in the alloy prison chairs with guns pointed at them. The leader wearing a tactical helmet crossed his arms and stood.
In front of the two people.
"Do you know what you are doing?" Fatty asked coldly after looking around. "We can accept being investigated, but this shouldn't be a place we came to before we were convicted."
The leader, who had not spoken a word and even his face was hidden behind a tactical helmet, suddenly opened his mask, revealing a thin face that looked familiar to Tang Lang: "Major General Tang Lang, do you still remember me?"
Tang Lang glanced at the hapless-looking thin man seriously, recalled it carefully, and answered him seriously: "I'm sorry, I don't think we have met much."
"Haha! Major General Tang Lang is such a noble man and forgets things! It's only been a few months!" The thin man laughed melancholy, and then his face turned gloomy. "Of course, after I haven't seen you for a few months, you are now a federal major general.
Well, how can you take me, who was demoted to captain because of you, to your heart?"
"However, this time is the same as the other. This time, you have neither your comrades to cheer you up nor General Tang to save you! Even if the old man knew, I am afraid there is no fleet available at this time.
"The thin man looked at Tang Lang with an almost ferocious expression. "Stop looking at me like that. You used to have a backstage to show off, but now..."
Then he leaned in front of Tang Lang and grabbed a handful of his fluffy hair, "I heard that you are very powerful? You once single-handedly fought against a high-level mecha master like Miyamoto Tsuyoshi! Tsk, no wonder you won the Victory Medal!"
"But!" Pointing to the shooting hole on the wall, the thin man responded to Tang Lang with the words Qin Chong threatened him back then: "Just use the words that person threatened me to answer you. Even if you are the God of War, they can easily beat you to death.
It's a puddle of meat, and I don't need to step on it with my feet."
"Why, are you still erect?" The thin man saw the same disdain flashing in Tang Lang's eyes as before, and he became angry. He clenched his fist and threw it down fiercely.
"Peng!" Tang Lang's black hair flew wildly on his forehead and his head tilted to one side.
Tang Lang turned around, and there was blood on his forehead, covering his clear brows, but his face did not change at all, and he stared coldly and quietly at the thin man who was obviously a little angry.
"Although I don't know when I caused you so much harm, to be honest, it's rare that you can be hurt like this!" Facing the thin man with an even ferocious expression, Tang Lang finally
When he opened his mouth, he actually laughed and said, "Bless yourself."
"I should tell you this!" The thin man stood up, feeling that he had established enough authority, and smiled sullenly, "Now is just the beginning. When I use some tricks, you will even tell me about the time you peed your pants when you were three years old.
Come out, Mr. Tang Lang from the Great Eagle Empire, believe me, you will have the most unforgettable time in your life!"
The prison chairs that imprisoned the two people were pushed into the two cells respectively, and the heavy bars fell down.
For a moment, it seemed to be temporarily quiet.
Tang Lang just sat on the cold chair, seeming to regard this place as a resting place.
Over there, the fat man was even more outrageous. Not long after, a rumble of snoring could be heard.
No matter where you are, you must maintain your physical strength and take adequate rest to cope with changes, rather than adding hopeless panic and stress. Now that they have gone deep into the tiger's den, Tang Lang and Fatty understand this truth better.
But now, they just have to wait, waiting for the prey of those who think they are hunters to arrive.
The bait is already so sweet and delicious, there's no reason why they shouldn't come, right?
In the void, two medium-sized transport ships with the words "Dialianxing Specialty Transport Ship" spray-painted on them, accompanied by three frigates, were heading towards Daliangxing at high speed.
Their authorization code had been verified at several checkpoints and everything appeared to be normal.
Perhaps, only if they did not enter the regular airport where the goods should be inspected but went straight into a small private airport on the other side of the planet would it be worthy of a few inspectors with a sense of justice to raise doubts.
But what's the use? On the Liang Star, it's no surprise that companies under the care of those powerful figures who occasionally use merchant ships to smuggle federal contraband are no longer uncommon.
Rights must be placed in the cage of the system, but they have been lost during this period. This is the most terrifying phenomenon in the political arena since the rise of Daliangxing led by Zhou Dunhou, but the improvement of the quality of life of ordinary residents has covered up the ugliness of all this.
The originally effective supervision mechanism of the federation has become empty talk with the crazy growth of personal power.
Just as someone in later generations described this event that happened in Daliang Star: This was the darkest moment in Daliang Star, just like before dawn.
