A large river divides the city in half, rushing southward.
This is probably one of the common features of human settlements. No matter whether the technology is developed or not, you will always feel at ease if you choose a place closer to the water source. The reason why Daliangxing’s agricultural products are more distinctive may also have something to do with the geographical environment here.
Relatedly, all major rivers flow southward into the ocean.
Sunshine and rain are abundant!
On both sides of the river that runs through the city center, there are towering buildings, but one of them has the most unique shape. It is composed of seven buildings stacked on top of each other, like a giant sail, and the height has reached a terrifying 800 meters, making "
The top of the "giant sail" reaches straight into the sky.
This is the ten-star hotel built in Daliangxing 30 years ago. It is also the only hotel where federal dignitaries must stay when they come here. Even the price of staying here for one night costs an ordinary person a year's salary.
Although the building is very high, it is actually only 60 stories high. Each floor is as high as a hundred meters. Here, each floor is an independent space, similar to a botanical garden, a revolving garden, and even a beach and a lake.
There are tropical plants and three-story buildings all over the field of view. Of course, the figures in black standing vaguely among the trees and the glass dome above remind us that this is an isolated space, and it is built on a giant building hundreds of meters high.
Space.
Luxury and grandeur are the deepest impression this ten-star hotel leaves on people.
In the garden on the top floor of the small building in the forest, where there were parasols, tables and chairs, the hot tea in Mingyue Shang's hand was steaming. She clenched it gently with one hand and looked up. She stayed here for a full hour.
Later in the afternoon, Zhou Dunhou, the deputy speaker of the Southwest Federal People's Assembly, appeared with a pot of tea to pour water for her.
This person is one of the top ten figures in the federal political arena. Although he is not powerful in the world, as long as he does not make mistakes, he can be regarded as a giant that no one can underestimate in the federation. No one dares to underestimate him, even those who have inherited the family for thousands of years.
his current influence.
Prince General Xiang Ning has such a talent! The Federation, which strives to achieve short-term democracy, has actually handed over more and more rights to the people themselves. Otherwise, how could someone like Zhou Dunhou, who has no background and no foundation, become the highest official in the Federation?
political arena.
But Mingyue Shang sighed slightly in her heart when she looked at the initiator with a pair of deep-set eyes narrowly spread out from the sides of his nose and gray hair on the temples that did not cover up the sparkle of original ambition in his eyes.
Rising from humble beginnings sounds very inspiring, but I am afraid that some people become greedier the more they gain. The ambition once they gain power is like a wildfire, and no one can control it, including himself.
"Zhou was busy with business just now. He made Miss Mingyue wait for half a day. I hope Miss Mingyue will forgive me." After pouring the tea, Zhou Dunhou picked up a cup and leaned on the sun chair. The light of the sunrise penetrated the earth and filtered through the dome.
Ultraviolet rays spill into this castle in the air.
"If Vice Speaker Zhou is busy clearing away all kinds of discordant voices and making Daliangxing your one-spoken voice, it is not unforgivable." Mingyue Shang said calmly without changing her expression.
"Haha, yes! There are always some people who are ignorant, but it makes Miss Mingyue laugh."
"Deputy Speaker Zhou is not afraid that this move will cause anger and resentment. Imagine how people will record what happened today? Haha, Vice Speaker Zhou must not use the excuse that the People's Assembly authorized the Security and Secrecy Bureau. You and I both know this.
It will soon become ineffective. Of course, I also know that maybe the entire federation knows about the changes in Star Liang, but for you who have already controlled Star Star Liang, there is no need to worry. All information exports and imports should be controlled by you.
It's controlled by your confidants, and you don't need much time.
Mingyue is just curious, and with Vice Chairman Zhou's wisdom, he shouldn't believe that history is written by the victors. In the scale of time, even if it can be deceived for a while, future generations will always put all the events at that time under a microscope.
, all dirty conspiracies and despicable betrayals are revealed in detail." There was a sheen of light and shadow on Ming Yueshang's lips.
"If we pull back from the brink, all the previous causes will not be investigated. It will only be defined by the parliament as the turmoil and subversion caused by the arrival of mercenaries in Da Liang." Ming Yueshang thought of those who may have died at the hands of this despicable traitor because of their opposition.
Those people felt pain in her heart, but at this time, she suddenly understood her father's helplessness many times, and justice was forced to make way for some overall situation. "Those big shots, I understand them, and I can also make a promise for my father here.
.”
"I believe in the political influence behind Miss Mingyue, and I also believe that the promises you made must be effective and must be effective!" Zhou Dunhou did not make any excuse for himself. Obviously, both of them are smart people.
Acting in front of others is putting yourself on a lower level and is ridiculous.
Looking into the distance, this figure who suddenly gave up his prominent position to disrupt the Federation made it difficult to guess what he was thinking, "As you said, the People's Assembly will recognize your promise. I believe that because now
In the Federation, all focus is on the front line. If there are internal problems, it may affect the tens of millions of troops on the front line. It is a battle for the fate of the country, so no matter how high the price, they can afford it and must pay it. I believe they are now
We have received news, but no information about the sudden change in Daliang Star has reached the public. To be honest, your father is the most powerful politician I have ever seen. If I were to change my position, I would not be willing to go against him."
Mingyue Shang was suddenly shocked and looked at the old man in disbelief.
Change his position? He has almost rebelled now. What kind of position can the worst result be?
If it was really what she thought, maybe it would be even worse.
Zhou Dunhou did not explain his current position in detail, but continued: "Miss Mingyue, how long do you think the war between the Southwest Federation and the Jipeng people will last? Jipeng's ambitious emperor, Prince Jipeng, Gong Bendao,
The newly rising Miyamoto Tsuyoshi has been conquering various parts of the Star Territory over the years. They and their group of soldiers have accumulated experience in iron and fire. This group of troops turned around to fight against the Southwest Federation, which had only experienced small wars in the past century. The Southwest Federation
Although you never relax, the reality is that when you stop moving forward, your opponent keeps sharpening his blade with war.
Even if there is an iron-blooded general like Chang Sun Hong, it is too late. I don’t believe that a country can turn the tide by just one person. Of course, this is not the most critical thing. The people of Jie Peng understand the people of the Southwest Federation, and the people of the Southwest Federation also understand Jie Peng.
Peng people, if two countries just rely on fighting, there will be no winner in three to five years.
The most important thing is that the Great Eagle Empire intervened in the war. What you see now is just a mercenary army. Perhaps the regular fleet of the Great Eagle Empire is behind it. Just to deal with the Jiepen people, the Southwest Federation has tried its best. In fact,
Miss Mingyue, you have also seen that the Southwest Federation cannot even deal with a mercenary army that accidentally breaks into the federal territory. It even has to let you, the noble daughter of the federal head of state, wander in the starry sky as a bait.
Tell me, when the Great Eagle Empire's army comes, what will the Southwest Federation do to resist it? Will they still use human wave tactics like they did thousands of years ago? Will they rely on people to carry explosive bags to blow up the opponent's starships and mechas?
It’s really a pity! Modern war is about national strength and technology, not just bravery!”
Mingyue Shang's black pupils trembled violently as she stared at the old man in front of her who was conclusively analyzing the situation in the starry sky.
"Miss Mingyue, I think everyone must look forward. It will be a matter of time for the Jiepen people to win this war. When the time comes, the Star Alliance will intervene, and at most they will mediate. The Jiepen people will not impose tyranny. Generally speaking,
, will it still be business as usual? In fact, who said that the rule of the Jiepen people will be inferior to the current world?
As for the reinforcements from the Kyushu Federation that you are looking forward to, they must be in a state of distress now! There are too many voices in the country, and they have already turned into a pot of porridge. One thing about the Chinese is that they are very powerful. When disaster strikes, they will stick together to fight against the enemy, but
What if the matter has nothing to do with you? Although your Southwest Federation and Kyushu Federation are both descendants of the Guhua clan, they have been separated for thousands of years, so asking them to risk their lives for you and the Great Eagle Empire may not be possible for everyone.
Everyone is willing, and by the time their dispute comes to an end, you may have all accepted the reality of defeat."
"The peace of being conquered and given away by others is not happiness. A home that has been invaded, destroyed and fallen will never return to the warmth of family reunion." Mingyue Shang picked up the tea cup, and the rising water vapor blocked her eyes.
Zhou Dunhou took a sip of tea and said, "Every era of change requires labor pains. This may be the labor pains that people have to bear."
"I would like to ask Mr. Zhou, you came from the Great Eagle Empire, and you must have been living on tenterhooks for the past few decades, and it must have been very painful!" Mingyue Shang suddenly asked.
Zhou Dunhou paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "Miss Mingyue is indeed very smart. Now that she has said everything, I have nothing to admit. But Miss Mingyue made a mistake. I am not
I come from the Great Eagle Empire, but my great-grandfather. I was born and raised here, and I am a true Southwest Federation person. Therefore, I sincerely hope that the people of the Southwest Federation will not suffer any military disasters and can come to China at a smaller cost.
Accepting and admitting your own failure actually does nothing bad for this country."
"I understand, a foreign spy was sent out with great intentions a hundred years ago or even further, and what about his descendants? They just refused to be ordinary and signed a contract with the devil, so they are prospering with the help of some potential forces.
He sat in his current high position. However, when the order comes, this person has no choice." Mingyue Shang was not shocked, only shook her head and sighed.
"Everyone can't come to this world in vain!" Zhou Dunhou chuckled and shook his head. "It can't be said that you have no choice. It's the path you choose."
"But, Mr. Zhou, the Great Eagle Empire can give you a high official and a generous salary, but can it transform your genes into blond hair and blue eyes like them?" Mingyue Shang suddenly smiled. "Perhaps, you are there, smiling.
You can’t be so casual!”
Zhou Dunhou's face suddenly stiffened.
Although Ming Yueshang didn't point his nose at him and call him a traitor, Mingyue Shang's statement was even more heart-wrenching.
No matter how he rebels, his genes can never be changed. Even in the Great Eagle Empire, even if he can obtain the title of nobility as promised by the Great Eagle Empire royal family, the people of the Great Eagle Empire will not let him and his
His descendants are regarded as one of his own, nothing more than a mutinous dog from the other camp.
This is the tragedy of a traitor.
"Haha! Miss Mingyue, do you want to know Tang Lang's fate?" Zhou Dunhou, who was a little angry, suddenly changed the subject.
