Chapter 1495 1497 Total War MobilizationWhen Chris walked into the Conference Hall, it was already full of Alanhill Imperial Powers The pinnacle of existence.
On the side of the military generals, Vagron sat at the top of the military generals, dressed in the uniform of a marshal, with the highest level of other medals hanging on his chest.
I haven't returned to the surface of the planet for a long time. Marshal Lawens, who has been drifting in outer space, didn't even have time to take care of the beard on his face.
Looking further down, sitting next to Marshal Laurence is Rokai, the young chief of staff of the Alanhill Empire.
These three people haven't been sitting in the same room for a long time. They each have their own things to do, and all meetings are video conferences.
But this time, they were all ordered to come, sit here, and wait for the emperor Your Majesty, whom they fear, to enter this Conference Hall.
On the other side, Prime Minister Dez has blond hair, and the clothes on his body are simple and solid. Just from the fabric, you can probably guess that the price of this clothes is absolutely exaggerated to the sky.
Dez is sitting next to Deans, and Deans is sitting beside Stryd. These ministers who have followed Chris since the time of Serris, each of which is a powerful empire in the world.
Of course, there are some fresh faces behind the ministers that Chris is familiar with. These ministers are all new cadres who have been promoted with the continuous expansion of the empire.
Everyone was still chatting non-stop before Chris opened the door, discussing the possible content of today's meeting, as well as the Higgs 5 battle that has been making the high-level Alanhill Empire nervous lately.
The moment Chris walked through the door, everyone stood up like an electric shock and raised their chins at Chris: "Long live my emperor..."
Chris waved casually. He waved his hand to signal everyone not to be so restrained, he walked to his seat, and Luther took the lead to help him pull out the seat with a somewhat huge back.
As the emperor, after Chris sat in the first place, he stretched out his hands and pressed down, and everyone took their seats.
straight to the point, Chris doesn't have the habit of wasting time, managing a huge empire composed of thousands of planets, if he wastes time on boring things like talking around the corner, Chris I'm afraid I don't even have time to sleep.
Therefore, when everyone looked towards him, he calmly spoke and announced the topic of this time meeting: "There is actually no other discussion content in this time meeting, the only topic is that I am going to In the next two days, declare that the empire has entered a state of full-scale war, mobilize all forces that can be mobilized, and prepare for a full-scale war!"
Hearing this news, several ministers and generals in the front row returned If you can keep your composure, the courtiers in the back can no longer care about the demeanor in front of the king, and they start talking at once.
The middle-aged minister in a corner turned pale, looked towards another colleague beside him, lowered his voice and said, "Why is there a sudden war mobilization? Higgs 5 side Isn't the situation over?"
"How do I know? Maybe there is a new situation? Or there is a problem with our loss report, and we actually lost? The enemy is still at Higgs. In the region?" The minister beside him didn't look very good, and said nervously.
Those who can sit here for meetings are naturally the great characters who control the power center of the empire. Who of these characters has no huge consortium or family support behind them? And how many businesses of these groups or families are operating in the empire?
War means that everyone's business is starting to become difficult, and all materials must be unconditionally tilted towards the field of war. The matter of making money has to be put aside, and the so-called interests can only be redistributed after the war is over.
Who dares to say that he can easily understand such a big thing? If the water is muddy, who can tell which fish will eat more fat and which will be eaten again?
Therefore, when they heard that the Emperor Your Majesty wanted to put the entire empire into a state of war and enter a wartime system, most of the people's reactions were not very natural.
"Your Majesty! This kind of thing... shouldn't you do a good calculation and make a better decision?" Finally, one of the ministers dared to speak to Chris.
It wasn't because he wanted to say that, but because he had seen the big guy who promoted him and gave him an order.
There is no other way. Since everyone is an interest group with a tangled and complicated relationship behind it, we must have the consciousness of being a cannon fodder at this time.
Although under the strong control of the emperor, the power center of the Alanhill Empire has not yet appeared in the real sense of party struggle, but small-scale cliques are unavoidable.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are people, there are groups. It's not always a good thing to be all alone. Chris still understands the truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish.
"Yeah, Your Majesty! We don't know what the enemy army is. Under such circumstances, rashly declaring a state of full-scale war will make people's hearts unstable." The first minister spoke. , and other ministers immediately followed.
The first bird in the early stage has already stepped forward, and the pressure is instantly relieved tenfold and a hundredfold. After the lifeless things are done with help, the rest is a game of decent people.
Therefore, among the ministers who spoke, the official rank was obviously higher, and such an opinion was more convincing.
Chris said nothing, waiting for the ministers to continue. His fingers did not habitually tap on the edge of the table or the armrest of the chair, which showed that he did not actually consider the suggestions of these ministers.
Before he walked into this Conference Hall, he had already made up his mind. He didn't want to pin his life, his beloved woman's life, and the future of his entire empire on the foolish idea that "the enemy might not attack".
However, none of the ministers in front of me had such an idea. They spoke one by one and one by one, scrambling to hope that the emperor would dispel such thoughts.
"We're not even sure whether those enemies will come again. Is it a bit hasty to start expanding the cosmos fleet like this?" a minister called the head and said.
In his opinion, the enemy may not come again. Expanding the space fleet is a complete waste of time and hinders economic development.
"I think we can increase the production speed of battleship first, put the Violent-class cruiser in the first production order, and draw up a one-year fleet development plan first, take a look at it and then make it more reasonable. ' said another minister.
His words seemed to be a compromise, and it seemed to give Emperor Your Majesty a giant step. But according to his meaning, the matter of national mobilization is simply not within the scope of consideration, as long as it is enough to strengthen the production speed of some battleships.
Dez frowned slightly, glanced at Chris, and didn't say anything. On the one hand, he is the prime minister. If he opens his mouth, it means that almost the entire civil service group does not agree with Your Majesty's decision.
But even if he thinks it makes a fuss about nothing, he doesn't mean to dissuade Chris. He could voice his opinion privately, but he wouldn't go against Chris in a meeting like this.
In fact, he still has some blind admiration for Chris - in his opinion, Chris's decision has not been wrong, so he thinks that Chris made such a decision, there must be a reason.
He, who had never spoken, suddenly found that Chris's fingers, which had been beating on the edge of the table for a long time, were not rhythmically lifting and placing them.
He realizes that Chris doesn't seem to be weighing the advice of the ministers in front of him—the Emperor Your Majesty has made up his mind, no doubt about that.
Seeing this little detail, he immediately adjusted his mentality. He remained calm and composed while handling pressing affairs, leaned back on the chair, lowered his eyes, and said nothing, as if an old monk was in a state of concentration.
Deans didn't speak, and watched Dez adjust his sitting position curiously. He also picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip of the bitter tea made with the magic bee honey inside, letting the sweetness go. A bitter taste lingers on the tongue.
Behind him, another minister who was not of high rank said in agreement at this time: "Yes! Your Majesty! I agree with this point of view, I think, now we have a lot to do, develop the planet , adjust the production capacity..."
Not far away, another minister followed, and raised the threat of the Heavenly Sword God Sect: "Should the troubles of the Heavenly Sword God Sect be resolved first? We can avoid fighting on two fronts, and we won’t encounter the situation of being attacked by the enemy.”
In fact, even a fool could hear that what he said on the surface was about the Sword God Sect, but he actually wanted to. To remind the emperor: Hope that during the battle of Planet 2, we faced the full-scale attack of the Sword God Sect and did not conduct a large-scale war mobilization.
Anyway, although Chris didn't have time to talk to these ministers, these ministers had to be more tactful about their advice to Chris.
You can't say to the Emperor Your Majesty: Your decision went wrong, obediently and honestly watch us perform, sit there and don't talk, just be a Clay Bodhisattva.
Everyone talking at once, another minister looked like I was a loyal minister and I risked my death to persuade him, and said persuaded: "Don't talk about it, I still think that such a rash start of a state of full-scale war will Putting the whole country in danger. Please Your Majesty think twice!"
"Perhaps the other party has begun to negotiate with us after seeing our strength, but we are preparing for a war !" An official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs followed at this time, expressing his opinion.
As a result, Marvin, the foreign minister, turned pale with a swipe. He knew who this person was speaking. After he decided to go back, he would arrange for this bastard to be sent to the farthest Star. Go Domain and do a lifetime of grassroots work there!
Anyway smart people keep their mouths shut now, leaving a bunch of people who have to speak up, where they discuss spiritedly chatter.
These ministers rely on the capital behind them when they rise to power, and rely on the power groups behind them when they gain political achievements. At this time, they need to protect the interests of the groups behind them. If they don't speak again , there may be no chance to speak again in the future.
As for the military, this time is very quiet. They know that now is not their time to speak and that all the Emperor Your Majesty needs is their actions.
To put it bluntly, the Emperor Your Majesty does not need their position or support at all. To deal with those Civilian Court Officials, even if they are counted together, they are not the Emperor Your Majesty. opponent.
As long as the Emperor Your Majesty raises his arm, everyone present will only support one option. This is Alanhill, and this is the perfect interpretation of the word "emperor".
The Alanhill Empire was never a democratic empire, and even structurally, it was not an advanced feudal system in which the emperor and the scholar-officials ruled the world together.
From the very day it was born, the Empire was literally the word of the Emperor Your Majesty. It's just that with the expansion of the empire, the region gradually expands, and the number of officials increases little by little. Some people always forget this fact.
Smart people generally have good memories, so Vagron Lawns didn't speak, and Roque had been working on the pen he'd been using for three years, Wilkes Modler and the others even mean sleepy.
Similarly, Stryd and Alderlake sat quietly, not even looking at the clowns behind them.
The last group of people who tried to prove that they could influence the Emperor Your Majesty's decision-making were all three feet tall, right? Deputy Prime Minister Alves didn't listen to the noise of those people at all, and thought with a sneer in his heart.
"Your Majesty! We can mobilize first in the Higgs area where there is a problem. I don't think there is any enemy that can make the current Alanhill Empire fully mobilized." From a distance, Jin advised The ministers continue to continue, and they have never felt so powerful as they do today.
Now, there are more than a dozen people who have spoken to persuade the emperor to take back his life, representing different interest groups, representing dozens of planets, and representing huge capitals in the tens of billions of dollars.
In their opinion, even the emperor Your Majesty should consider changing his decision. No matter how strong the emperor is, it is impossible to ignore the opinions of so many people at the same time, right?
"It's totally unnecessary, Your Majesty, you know how terrifying the production capacity of the Alanhill Empire is... Once this mobilization order is issued, we will produce countless war supplies every day." One The old minister spoke, representing the opinions of many nearby ministers.
This old man is supported by huge interest groups. These groups are huge monsters, spanning all walks of life.
Of course, at this time, there are also several Civilian Court Officials who snort disdainfully to such persuasion, because behind them, stands the arms group...
The old minister is standing From the perspective of imperial economy, it has been recognized by many colleagues: "Your Majesty! If there is a war to consume these materials, of course it doesn't matter. But we are not sure that the war will break out, so once the war does not break out as scheduled, we will produce it. These useless war materials will only become a pile of useless garbage."
He talked eloquently, and the more he said it, the more it made sense: "From an economic point of view, doing this It's no different from suicide! What we're doing is more terrifying than using military force!"
If it wasn't for his manners, some ministers would even applaud him to strengthen his voice.
Even so, it can be easily seen that these ministers all agree with the old minister's analysis.
In their opinion, making money is the first major event. You can earn less and earn more slowly, but if you want to take 90% of everyone's earnings, you will kill your parents. .
In a sense, this is also a war, an internal war about the distribution of benefits!
The more the old minister talked, the more spirited he became, as if he was moved by himself. As he spoke, he spread his arms, and every word attracted many people to echo the nodded: "War is to bring benefits to the country! If there is only input but no output, such a war will soon collapse the country! ”
Chris looked at the minister with great interest, and seemed to realize that there was such a person in his subordinates who spoke nicely and would inspire others.
The old minister also saw the gaze cast by the Emperor Your Majesty, and his courage was disappeared all of a sudden.
However, because he had to speak for the family and group he represented, he could only continue to brace oneself and ended his performance with one sentence: "The problem is, we haven't fought a war yet! We are preparing for a war that may not break out!"
"Let me say something?" Seeing that the old minister shut his mouth, Chris looked at the minister who was talking at once, and a The generals, who were silent, asked softly.
The instant he asked this question, the entire Conference Hall became extremely silent. No one spoke again, all looked at their Emperor Your Majesty, waiting for the Emperor Your Majesty to speak again.
"I know you all want to make money. If you make less money, you will naturally be sad, depressed, or even in pain." Chris said coldly, his eyes swept over the just now The ministers who advised him not to mobilize for war.
"Higgs 5 investigation revealed that invading enemies...will destroy everything we make! Houses, gold coins, bullets, golems! Even our flesh! Destroy our lives! ' There was sternness in his tone.
"If we fail! Even with a probability of one in ten thousand, we fail! Then, everything that proves our existence will be erased! What will not remain!" said At this point, he stood up and looked down at the pair of shocked eyes: "Victory, we can live, failure... We will all be obliterated! This is the meaning of this war, this is the purpose of this war!"
"So, I'm not here for your opinion!" Chris said: "War mobilization! Start now! You guys... go and execute it!"
"oh la la! On the left of Chris, the military generals who had been silent all the time, all stood up, stood at attention and saluted in response to Chris's order: "My emperor... Long live!"
On the other side, Dez slowly Standing up, following him were the ministers sitting in the front row. They held their chins high, and also sang loudly: "Long live my emperor!"
While those who just kept persuading, chattering, and chattering normally seemed to be a powerful newcomer Ministers, at this moment, they are sad to find that they can't stand up.
My legs became soft for some reason, and I was disobedient...
"Sir...sir...what's the matter with you, sire?" Minister Nian's anxious voice attracted the attention of many people.
I only saw that the old man rolled his eyes and leaned back on the chair, obviously unconscious.
"Although the position is not very important, what's the matter with the chief officer's physical condition? Is it too much work?" Dez glanced at him and asked an officer next to him.
The minister behind him didn't speak, just bowed his head slightly, and looked towards the emperor not far from the corner of his eye.
The man who was still shining ten thousand zhang stood there, not even interested in taking a look at the situation on the other side.
In this brief moment, the Alanhill Empire, which spans a vast territory and has countless planets, has entered a state of total war because of the decision of the Emperor Your Majesty Chris alone.
——
It's a little bit late, but the 5500-word chapter is here.
After walking around with the computer for a day, I determined that it was a power supply problem. Fortunately, it is not expensive to replace the power supply.
I originally planned to buy a new one with ten thousand zhang, but when I inquired about the price of the graphics card, I couldn't afford it...
Is this crazy, a 3060 graphics card needs to be 5600 yuan? Back then 1060 was less than 2000! 2060 was less than 2000 back then!
Forget it, my 1060 can fight for another 3 years! Hmm... 2 years? Well, at least one more year to fight!
