Chapter 7 Chapter 7 The Great Split
At 18:00 on April 15th, the two dukes, Alex Albert and Chu Shilang, met again. Although this result was a personal matter, it also had historical significance. Everyone believed that the Titania family was facing a "severe division" "At this time of conflict, the fact that the two giants who oppose the vassal king Yashuman chose to meet at this time does have far-reaching implications.
"Once those two men meet in Baghee, God knows what they'll be plotting!"
Idris yelled.Regardless of what he thought in his heart, he did expect a fact.Albert and Chu Shilang did not meet specifically to discuss matters this time, but since they met, it is impossible to stop at drinking tea and chatting.
Chu Shilang left Princess Lydia and Francia on the flagship, and accompanied by Falmy alone, went directly from the central space port to the hospital where Alex Albert was.As soon as he arrived at the hospital, Chu Shilang asked Falmi to stand by in the corridor, and then walked into the ward alone. The doctor said that the meeting should not exceed an hour at most, and then retreated to the next room, so the two dukes were able to relax.One sat up from the bed, and the other found a chair without arms and sat down.
"I heard that your injury recovered quickly, so I can rest assured. How is the situation here with Baghew?"
"At present, peace is maintained temporarily on the surface, and Fang Xiuli's group has not moved at all, as if taking a nap in the afternoon."
"Once they are awakened from the dream of peace, they must be at a loss for a while. If they have prepared a solid tactical strategy, they must be even more flustered."
Titania, who ruled the entire universe, and Fang Xiuli and other weak forces that opposed it, the formula drawn by everyone only lasted for a few tens of days before disintegrating. Fang Xiuli's victory in the sea has been buried in the unknown. Among the known accumulations of history, hundreds of billions of sensory nerves are now concentrated in the every move of the two dukes.
From the standpoint of Albert Albert, the failure of the crusade against Fang Xiuli's party is a fait accompli, so he must find a way to take responsibility; however, he was seriously injured and it would take three months to heal. The health condition is not enough to monopolize the military power in Baghee; and Idris has repeatedly pursued his own responsibility. Since he cannot return to the "Sky City" to explain the matter one by one, Alex Albert can only resign to show his ambition.
What happened next was completely beyond Alex Albert's imagination. However, it can only be said that the development of the matter was very illogical, not that Alex Albert's ability to predict was too poor.Everything progressed too fast, and it may be that the prince Yashuman was also under pressure, forcing him to make a conclusion in a short time—assuming that the prince Yashuman was the real mastermind.
"A defeat is a defeat. There is no other excuse. It was my own carelessness. I was too eager to restore my reputation and forgot to take care of the overall situation."
Ali Albert analyzed the reasons for his failure in this way.
"Even if I continue to serve as the commander-in-chief, I may still lose to Fang Xiuli again in the future, so I really hope to find an opportunity to escape, so that I can objectively overlook the whole ins and outs..."
Alex Albert sent his eyes to the pillow, a vase of carnations in three colors: blue, white and red. The background of the vase was the sky outside the window. The color of the scene deepened with time, and the light of the stars gradually faded. Instead, points of light from other constellations appeared one after another, increasing in brightness.
"Titania is an invisible rope, not only our bodies, but even our hearts are bound, and I have been looking for opportunities to break free."
The shackles of Titania are very heavy for the dukes who have always been respected and privileged by others. They grow and thrive in the values that have always been inherited in the history of Titania. When they see themselves in the eyes of others But I felt a burst of astonishment. Once doubts arise in my heart, even if there is only one question mark, people cannot be content with noble ignorance.
The result of Alex Albert's resolute resignation is equivalent to being ahead of the prince's punishment, but for Alex Albert, being strong does not necessarily benefit him. Chu Shilang does not think that the prince who was preempted will be happy Accept the situation.
"It's a good thing that Sir Albert was injured this time, so there is a reason why he doesn't have to be recalled to Tiancheng."
"However, Chu Shilang, you have been involved in this troubled water because of this. You must have suffered a lot from your brain."
Alex Albert made an incomprehensible joke. In fact, not only Falmy, but generally speaking, the nobles of Titania don't have much sense of humor.
"Qing Chu Shilang, I want to ask you clearly, what happened during this period?"
Faced with this reasonable question, Chu Shilang sat up straight and began to describe all the situations that "Sky City" has experienced since Albert resigned.
A small-scale rebellion that can be suppressed within a few days will help to strengthen the ruling system. This is an existing principle of the policy of the ancient metropolitan state. There are still many cases in which the rulers use the reason of the rebellion to eradicate powerful people. This time The incident in the past can be regarded as one of them. After thinking about it, Chu Shilang declared his position to Alex Albert.
"As I said earlier, the attempted assassination of His Royal Highness has nothing to do with me, and I even doubt whether this incident really existed. I only saw the public announcement held by Sir Idris from the beginning to the end, didn't I?"
Even if he did not explicitly point out that what Idris said was unacceptable, Chu Shilang's meaning was quite clear, and Alex Albert summarized the whole ins and outs to a conclusion.
"To put it bluntly, was it Sir Idris who framed Sir Chu Shilang?"
"No, we can't make such an assertion for the time being. We must first find out whether Sir Idris designed to frame me? Or is he not an accomplice, but just obeying orders?"
"In my opinion, he is mostly obedient to orders. If Sir Idris heard what I said, he might express his dissatisfaction, but I think that with his own ability, even if he intends to play tricks, His Royal Highness Pu Giving in so easily."
Although this evaluation is merciless, there should not be many people who raise objections.With an expression of agreement, Alex Albert took down a note paper placed next to the pillow and repeated in a low voice.
"His Royal Highness Yashuman, the landless prince of Titania, was injured by a sniper. Fortunately, his life was not in danger. The murderer was killed on the spot. It is speculated that Chu Shilang may be behind the scenes."
Alex Albert smiled.
"It must have been a coincidence that this happened. His Royal Highness is really going to die unexpectedly. No matter who is right or wrong, everyone will definitely cast aside Idris. In my opinion, the one who needs His Royal Highness the most in the universe is Idris." Dries."
Chu Shilang noticed that when Ali Albert mentioned Idris's name, he no longer called him "Qing", but he didn't say it clearly, but just shifted the topic to the process when he left "City of Heaven" this time , when he was talking about the female captain of the "Goddess of Dawn", Alex Albert suddenly interrupted.
"Edna is an excellent captain."
When he noticed that Chu Shilang's eyes were different, Alex Albert realized that he accidentally called out the name of Colonel Edna Fredericks, so he also looked at Chu Shilang, expressing his acquiescence indifferently.It turns out that Alex Albert and Edna once dated. This is the first example that Chu Shilang learned about Alex Albert's love life. Alex Albert is not the number of women who would date themselves A person who is decorated and boasted like a medal.
"Mr. Albert, you don't associate with her because she is an excellent captain, do you?"
"She wasn't a captain when I met her, and that was ten years ago."
Judging from this conversation, it is enough to determine that Alex Albert is a man with even less sense of humor than Falmy.
"Are you breaking up now?"
"We didn't make it clear that we broke up. She is busy with military affairs and her own life now. Our fate just faded unknowingly."
Albert shook his head and smiled, a faint haze passed over his handsome face, seeing that Chu Shilang remained silent, Albert added another sentence.
"Actually, Titania's authority has no effect on her at all, so I don't want to use my position to restrain her, that's how it is."
Chu Shilang nodded, and then changed the subject. He remembered the personnel order that Edna Fredericks was appointed as the flagship captain; with Edna's personality, she would never obey orders that were unclear. , and therefore what kind of order made Edna resolutely agree to be the person in charge of Chu Shilang's flagship at the beginning?Chu Shilang has always been brooding over this matter. Was all this planned by someone in advance?It's all because the opponent this time is the vassal king Yashuman, so he has to be careful not to let go of even the fleeting faint shadows. However, to get rid of these doubts, Chu Shilang thinks that he should explain one thing to Albert fact.
"Although it is unavoidable, I have now become a major suspect in the attempted assassination of the feudal lord. I can't accept such a crime. In order to defend my life, reputation and rights, I will not hesitate to fight, no matter who the target is. Same."
Chu Shilang announced calmly, ending his explanation with these words.
"Are you going to confront His Royal Highness...?"
There was a shuddering tone in Albert Albert's words, not because he was cowardly, no one in Titania had ever dared to slander him for being cowardly, but in turn, the vassal king Arsman was the only one in the universe who could make him cowardly. Albert shuddered, but Chu Shilang said with a light wave of his hand.
"I said verbally that I would not hesitate to fight, but I would not show my courage for a while. I am not a fully realized saint, so when faced with life-threatening moments, I had to struggle desperately. At that time, I refused to hand over my wealth and life to Sir Idris. It means I have no choice but to struggle until I die."
"You can try to explain first, whether to accept or not is the other party's problem. In fact, I am willing to act as a middleman, but I can't help if I want to help now."
At this time, the doctor said that the patient needed medical treatment and rest, so Chu Shilang left the ward temporarily, and faced each other again after the two of them had dinner, and it was completely dark.
"Why did the vassal choose Idris as his successor? I really don't understand that."
Albert raised his beautifully lined brows, and half-talked to himself while feeding.
"If Chu Shilang is the successor, I don't have any objections. If Idris is replaced, there is no other way. It's just that even if I obey on the surface, I still can't understand the reason in my heart."
"I agree."
Chu Shilang and Albert had the same idea. Idris was younger than the two of them, and he was inferior to them in terms of performance and popularity. The feudal lord should be clear about it; or It is said that it is precisely because the feudal lord understands this that he will help Idris to balance the power of the three dukes.
"It's also possible that we may not be able to figure it out after decades of guessing."
Chu Shilang tried to speculate on the reason, but avoided going too deep.
"In my opinion, it's better not to think too much now. Entering the inner world of His Royal Highness is tantamount to challenging a maze, but in the future, when facing the actions taken by the vassal, I will stand in the position of protecting my life. correspond to it from a standpoint of dignity."
Turning around, Chu Shilang raised another very important question.
"Mr. Albert, do all your subordinates swear allegiance to you?"
"If the target of the battle is Idris, I think they should all follow me. However, once the opponent is replaced by a feudal lord, I'm not sure if I can reach half of them."
"...that's the problem."
Chu Shilang whispered, while Alex Albert rolled up the sleeves of his nightgown without saying a word. It is absolutely impossible for Idris to become the final victor in the battle for hegemony on his own. With the backing of his authority, he was able to fight against Albert and Chu Shilang.Suddenly, Chu Shilang realized that the whole thing revolved around his own thoughts.
"Sir Albert, no matter what, I have decided to fight against the vassal and Idris, but I can't hurt you because of it, but I don't want to be bound obediently, so I will leave Baghee immediately within a few days."
"What are you doing to me?"
Albert laughed, and his hearty laughter showed that his injury was gradually on the way to recovery.
"Chu Shilang, it is true that I maintained a neutral position, but that has passed, and I will fight side by side with you, no..."
Albert raised his hand to stop Chu Shilang from speaking.
"This is not all about your personal problem, Sir Chu Shilang. I have also had conflicts with Idris myself, and now there is no way out."
Just one week before Chu Shilang arrived in Baghee, Alex Albert received an order from "Sky City" that he must immediately detain Chu Shilang when Chu Shilang arrived. "Report to His Royal Highness Pu Wang!" Facing the communication screen that was specially transported to the ward, Alex Albert raised the volume. "This matter has been full of doubts from the very beginning. I believe that Chu Shilangqing is absolutely impossible to harm His Royal Highness. Please give him a chance to make a public statement before then." However, it was not the feudal lord but Idris that appeared on the coarse-grained screen of the communication screen. Alex Albert asked to talk directly to the feudal lord, but Idris snorted coldly. "I also want to know how it is possible for His Royal Highness to see you. His Highness was unfortunately attacked by vicious thugs and is now lying on the bed wounded. Of course, Chu Shilang, who instigated the thugs behind the scenes, is guilty." "Since this is the case, show the evidence, and belittle Chu Shilang, one of the four dukes, as the mastermind of the assassination without any evidence, and even arrest him. This is an act of contempt for dignity and human rights!" "If Chu Shilang really has any grievances, he should go directly to the vassal king and say it. If he thinks he has a clear conscience, who told him to give up the opportunity to defend himself and flee in fear of crime, wouldn't it mean that he acquiesced in his crime? Aya Sir Li Albert, if Chu Shilang arrives in Baghee soon and you let him go, then I will attack you, the accomplice who sheltered the criminals, and I hope you will be mentally prepared." "If you want to talk big, it depends on the target. Do you want to compete with me, Alex Albert, in the ability to use soldiers?" "That's really interesting. I think you're the one talking big. If you lost to Fang Xiuli twice in a row, what right do you have to talk about how to use your troops?" Idris mocked, and the verbal exchange between the two dukes was interrupted. By the time Alex Albert spoke again, the speed of light had advanced thirty million kilometers during this period. "...I can't lose to you, Idris." Alex Albert lowered his voice, but the sharp tone pierced through Idris. "If you have a great talent and strategy that surpasses Fang Xiuli, prove it to me! Just lead an unprecedented army to attack me, and I will order a golden coffin that suits you best, and send you back to Tiancheng!" This was probably the most impulsive speech in Albert's life.And a large amount of blood was flowing in the blood vessels of Idris's face, and the cartilage in his throat slid up and down. After finally adjusting his breathing, Idris squeezed out a sound that was close to a growl from the corner of his mouth. "I should be able to interpret your words as a formal declaration of war, Mr. Albert." "Otherwise, how else can I explain it! Stop being hypocritical, you idiot!" The last sentence was full of explicit and provocative tone. Aleksandr Albert, who was always considered the most impersonal, looked angry at this moment, and his expression was very vivid; Idris was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, and his capillaries were forced to rupture. "Just wait and see! I'll kill you!" With this blunt offensive statement as the final ending, the communication was cut off, and the screen of the interstellar communication screen was completely white...
"...That's the reason. Even if the feudal lord lets me go, Sir Idris will never let it go. He will definitely come to kill me, which means I have no choice." Chu Shilang stared at his cousin of the same age in surprise. "I never knew Sir Alex Albert had such a childish side. In the past, I always thought you were mild-tempered and steady in doing things." "I thought so too, but in the end, even I was deceived, probably because I have always longed to be such a person but have not been able to do so." The memories of Albert went back to the past, which was a memory shared by the two of them, and Chu Shilang remained silent because he didn't know how to respond. "Qing Chu Shilang, do you hate my mother?" This was an expected question, but Chu Shilang had to struggle to give a negative answer, and Albert seemed to understand his reaction, and did not continue to ask: "Really?" "I can understand your hatred, but when I was young, my mother told me that you must never hate others, but hate yourself if you want to hate." Alex Albert turned his gaze to a corner of the ceiling. "My mother has always been a woman with a strong wrist. As a son, I can't deny it, but maybe it's just a kind of acting. Anyway, all this is over. Now that it has evolved into such a broken situation, we should seriously think about what to do in the future. That's what matters." Chu Shilang nodded silently in agreement, he knew very well that when Idris cut off the interstellar communication, Alex Albert also cut off a part of the spiritual wiring connected to the past. Chu Shilang found a medium-sized hotel, which was only a three-minute walk from the hospital where Albert was recuperating, and set it as an office and dormitory.This hotel named "Abiwan" is a ten-story building, with office functions from the first floor to the sixth floor, the seventh floor is the guard's duty room, the eighth floor is the main cadre's dormitory, the ninth floor and the tenth floor The building is Chu Shilang's residence.Falmy's room is on the ninth floor, Princess Lydia and Francia's room is on the tenth floor, Chu Shilang's private office is on the sixth floor, the living room is on the ninth floor, and the bedroom is on the tenth floor. All the specific arrangements were handed over by Chu Shilang to Falmy for execution. He became Chu Shilang's senior adjutant again, and he seemed to be Chu Shilang's confidant in the eyes of the outside world, and at the same time he continued to show others with related actions.There is another person who also regards Falmy as a confidant, and he must be loyal to this person, and this person is Princess Lydia of the Ebinger Kingdom.Seeing the princess looking idle, Falmy stepped forward to talk to her. "Are you missing your grandfather, princess." Princess Lydia did not continue to answer. She stared at the ground scenery that had been away for more than a year. She looked down at the mediocre atrium with a fountain and replied. "I don't dare to go back without any gifts. As the royal family, I must try to fight for the country... that's called... fighting for interests, but I can't do it yet, so I can't go back now." People are always homesick...!The way Falmy contemplates the princess' mood also shows that his imagination has improved.Princess Lydia turned to Falmy to express another worry in her heart. "Fare, do you think the Titanian Army will attack the Kingdom of Ebinger?" "No, you can rest assured about this." Falmy categorically stated that although he feels a little sorry for Princess Lydia, in fact, Titania does not take the Kingdom of Ebinger seriously at all, regardless of whether the Kingdom of Ebinger wants to remain neutral from the outside or join the vassal faction Or anti-vassal faction of any kind, as innocuous as a debilitating mosquito on the surface of clothing. But suddenly, Falmi noticed a possibility. This situation does not belong to the category of strategy but political strategy. What will happen to the countries that vote for the anti-vassal lord faction?At that time, "Sky City" may attack the Kingdom of Ebinger and destroy this poor and weak star country to make an example of others.If it is Mr. Idris, it is very possible that Farmi's determination is not based on a fair evaluation, it should be said that it is a preconceived bad impression, and this preconceived notion is affecting Farmi's decision on the future direction .Once Chu Shilang leaves "Tiancheng", Idris will become the agent of the vassal king to control the overall situation, and Falmi will never recover. If he chooses to stay under Chu Shilang's command, at least he will have the opportunity to create his own future, and Coming here made him feel that he had a place to play, and the sense of alienation and isolation he had felt during the period when he was stationed on Tilun Huo was also swept away. After much consideration, it was indeed a correct choice. "I swear that I will return to Tiancheng as a victor next time!" He made a decision like this in his heart, but his footsteps were still far away from complete confidence. He only discovered a shocking fact now, that is, if he continued to deduce the current situation, he was bound to fight against the vassal king Yashuman.The vassal king is a symbol of Titania's power and an object of awe. Can the combination of Alex Albert and Chu Shilang really defeat him? But now, he locked away his inner anxiety for the time being, and had to show his courage as a knight in front of the princess. "Princess, let's go to the tea room. I heard that there are more than forty kinds of fruit pies in this restaurant. You can eat them for a long time." Falmy was already an expert on sweets. On the other hand, although Chu Shilang has been dismissed as the commander-in-chief, he has not yet officially resigned. Once he is dismissed, who will command the Titanian troops stationed in Baghee?Reinstated by Alex Albert?However, Alex Albert ignored the notice of "Sky City" and welcomed Chu Shilang into Baghee without authorization. Alex Albert and Chu Shilang refused to obey the order of "Sky City", and the Titania Center will regard them as traitors thieves and punish them.
Titania vs. Titania's civil strife. Now it has entered a situation that is enough for people in the whole universe to be stunned. Before that, human society was only divided into two races, "Titania and Non-Titania". The formula of "Dania VS Anti-Titania" is repeated.When a brand-new illustration beyond imagination is going on in front of them, most people cannot judge or decide what attitude they should take to face it. The planet Baghuo is still under the occupation of the Titanian Army. Perhaps it should be renamed "It has been transferred to the rule of the Anti-Titanian Army". Just trying to express the situation correctly will bring people into unprecedented confused. "If Sir Albert also breaks away from the vassal's command, then there is no legal basis for continuing to station in Baghee, and Titania should be asked to retreat." Some people put forward the above opinions, but because they are too unrealistic, they cannot win the approval of the majority. "The situation is getting weird now, which side is our government going to support? Or remain neutral?" "In any case, if Baghsiah continues to be used as a base by the rebels, we will definitely be fully attacked by the Titanian army." "It's too bad, how did things turn out like this?" The councilors and bureaucrats of Baghsu discussed and exchanged opinions with each other, and the voice that was originally whispering quickly turned into a high-spirited talk due to the excitement of the crowd. "Just take the opportunity to join the AJ Alliance and defeat the undefeated Titania's ruling system in one go. What do you think?" The "AJ" of the "AJ Alliance" comes from the first characters of the names of Alex Albert and Chu Shilang respectively. In addition, there are also less elegant names such as "Two Dukes Agreement" and "Anti-vassal King Faction". These days, the outside world has called the two of them to work together.In fact, "anti-Idris faction" may be more appropriate, and it is strange that no one has brought it up. "But the vassal king Yashuman is still alive. Even if the AJ alliance openly rebelled, there is not much chance of winning. It would be better to join forces with the vassal king to eliminate the AJ alliance and return to the ruling system of Titania to coexist with it, wouldn't it be better?" "How can there be such a good thing in the world. Once the AJ alliance is eliminated, the power of the feudal lord will become stronger. At that time, the attitude towards us Baghsiu will definitely be a further high-handed order." "Yeah, why do we have to assist the vassal? No matter which side wins between the vassal faction of Titania and the AJ alliance, maintaining a neutral position is the best policy." "You can't just stand by and watch, you should find a way to subtly intervene, and design to make them both lose. This is a great opportunity to destroy Titania's ruling system." "Stop making trouble, it's not playing electric toys, please avoid getting involved in this dispute, don't forget that the Titania family has always been very united, if we make a move casually, if we self-defeating and let them fight with the enemy, we will be in bad luck , Bad luck!" All the Baghees have almost become commentators on Titania's political battle, and their emotions are in a strange excitement.The regime of the Titania family was originally as strong and stable as a star in its prime, without any wavering at all, but now it has undergone drastic changes, and a slight mistake may collapse. This turning point in history is more exciting than anesthetics. "Mr. Albert and Mr. Chu Shilang have a large fleet of 20,000 ships, which can be called the most powerful armed corps in the universe. Think about who else in Tiancheng can compete with them?" "But that is Titania's army, not Sir Albert's private army. Once the vassal king publicly declares them to be the public enemies of Titania, the 20,000 fleet will really obey the orders of Albert How much will you have?" "Does it mean that the disobedient fleet will turn back and attack Sir Albert? However, Sir Albert has always been loved by the generals." "Now everyone's awe of the vassal king has increased again." "The feudal lord? He is an out-and-out monster." "He's the most incomprehensible." Having said that, everyone shut their mouths. On the one hand, they were tired from chatting; on the other hand, they felt an indescribable sense of oppression spontaneously when the statue-like appearance of Arshuman appeared in their minds. On April 1st, Alex Albert and Chu Shilang were still discussing future countermeasures in the hospital. One of the topics was to come up with a righteous name that could justify their armed resistance against the vassal king Yashuman At this time, Chu Shilang had a secret case. "Fight against the courtiers on the king's side!" Upon hearing Chu Shilang's words, Albert patted his hands. "I see, is the target Idris? In this way, the righteous name can be established, because the vassal king himself did not make any official comments on the matter of Chu Shilang, maybe it was Idris who casually Let go." "It's possible that Idris can't be forced." With the goal of eradicating Idris, the AJ League announced its rebellion, and Idris will become a political target in an instant.Assuming that the AJ Alliance wins the military victory, the feudal lord is likely to sacrifice Idris in exchange for a peace agreement when he is desperate. Chu Shilang will withdraw from the stage of life, and Idris's triumphant song will also be played. "Idris, who was regarded as a target, is pitiful, but we who are forced by the situation and have to rebel also need sympathy. Whether it is hostility or subordination, we now have to dance on the giant palm of the lord." "You mean, even if the three dukes join forces, they can't beat the feudal king alone?" "That's right, that's why he can surpass his elder brother and become the vassal king." Arshuman's brother, Falmy's father Estella, died unexpectedly just before he planned to challenge his brother's authority, and his son is now serving in Chu Shilang's camp. It seems that the father and son Neither of them could stay safely under Arjuman's feet. It is necessary to take the trouble to confirm one point here. Both Albert and Chu Shilang are Tiedabaya people. They understand that it is a delusion to seek a peaceful solution with bare hands. Protect yourself by force, but this is not in the spirit of humanity, and the way Titania rules the universe is the worst reality.Alex Albert suggested: "Do you think this method is good? We sent secret envoys to meet His Majesty Harusha VI of the Vldana Empire, and asked him to issue a secret edict ordering us to attack the vassals. At least through the legal effect of the Vldana Empire, we have Absolutely legitimate reasons to lead troops to revolt." "Of course Harusha VI must be overjoyed, but the matter probably can only end here. His Majesty the Emperor always only likes to punish Titania in his dreams." If you intend to use the emperor's secret edict as a political bargaining chip, you must publish it publicly. At that time, the vassal king will coerce the VI to declare that the secret edict is invalid, and may even take this opportunity to force Harusha VI to abdicate; , it would be more appropriate to publicly state that it will respect the court of Verdana in the future as in the past, and there is no need for any substantive commitment at all, then Alex Albert and Chu Shilang will leave a good impression on Harusha VI's mind Impression, and the evaluation of "Sky City" that continues to oppress Harusha VI will drop sharply. "By the way, let Earl Elman return to Tiancheng, and let him convey to His Royal Highness the fact that the two of us have no two hearts." This was not Chu Shilang's original intention. He did not think that Earl Elman would truthfully defend Albert and Chu Shilang after returning to "Sky City". The farther away from him, the better, because in his opinion, the character Elman is only harmful but not beneficial. To put it bluntly, he is useless. He is currently fighting against an unprecedentedly powerful enemy. It is wise to protect yourself by allowing someone to drag you back, and keeping a respectful distance. Fortunately, there is another suitable person who can send Elman back to "Tiancheng", that is, Chu Shilang's captive, Brigadier General Nostiz. Brigadier General Nostitz had been depressed all day long after his arrest, and it was only natural that he would have such a reaction in such a situation.He is not a person who is so weak that he can't see whether the other party lied about surrendering or not, but because the other party is a member of the four Dukes of Titania, he personally boarded the enemy ship to show respect. Keeping his duty has had the opposite effect, no wonder he is not happy, and now he has been released by Chu Shilang and entrusted to escort Earl Elman Titania back to "Sky City".Chu Shilang solemnly apologized to Brigadier General Nostitz for his previous faux pas, and shook hands with him, expressing the hope that he would see him active again on the battlefield in the near future. The political performance shown.Sure enough, Nostics was deeply moved, and promised on the spot that he would definitely send Earl Elman back to "Sky City" unscathed, and then backed away from Chu Shilang. At the same time, before Earl Elman set off, Chu Shilang also There is no restriction on his actions in a planned way. At least compared to Brigadier Nostitz, Chu Shilang's behavior is indeed much worse. The military guidance and deployment are entrusted to Alex Albert. Chu Shilang is mainly engaged in political and diplomatic instigation. The first step is to start from within Titania, because Chu Shilang heard a strange rumor that the protagonist is Farah who came from "City of Heaven".After collecting this information, Falmi stated that Farah had been summoned by the vassal and had revealed an important secret to him in private. "Should Farah be summoned for interrogation, Your Excellency?" "It's useless, Sir Fala, what the vassal said to Farah may not be the truth. His Royal Highness is best at intimidating others with duplicity lies. No matter what he said to Farah, I think he just They just want to cause confusion for us." However, sooner or later, Farah's matter must be resolved, of course not to be killed, but since Chu Shilang and Alex Albert have raised the flag of rebellion against "Sky City", it is necessary to follow the example of Teifania's predecessors and make it clear that they The slogan of the operation.Ideals alone cannot win in reality, but they are a powerful tool for guiding principles and policies. Since you cannot add a friend, you must at least find a way to eliminate an enemy. "What countermeasures should we take against Xiuli?" When Albert asked this question, Chu Shilang tilted his head slightly and thought for a while. "No, let's put Fang Xiuli aside for now, one day he will take the initiative to contact us, as long as we don't shut ourselves up and keep a posture of being ready to entertain guests at any time." "Can you predict when he will contact us?" Albert continued to ask questions, while Chu Shilang fell into deep thought again. "I can't come up with the right numbers, but I can answer the question in another way." "What time is it?" "The time is before and after Sir Idris came into contact with them." In response to Chu Shilang's reply, Albert nodded and responded with a shallow smile.Purely in terms of military talent, Idris does not have any human qualities that can hold a sense of superiority over Alex Albert. I really don't understand how much the feudal king Arjoman has for Idris' talents. expect? “如果以藩王的做法，他可能会提出优提待遇的保证，利诱方修利一行人成为他旗下的佣兵，就算他将实战部队的总指挥权交给方修利，我也不会吃惊。” 听完褚士朗的意见后，亚历亚伯特的嘴角勾勒出会心的笑容。 “那真是太好了，即使改换阵营，方修利仍然免不了要跟我一战，希望在二败之后能来个一胜。” 个性上令人感受到其精神力所兼具之强韧与柔软的异母表兄弟泛起笑意，褚士朗看着他的笑容，脑海里不禁描绘出一个略嫌异样的光景，方修利一行人会做出如何的选择呢？ 这一年的四月二十日，以铁达尼亚无地藩王亚术曼的名义正式诏告，褫夺亚历亚伯特与褚士朗包括公爵名号在内一切的公职与相关权利。一年前齐聚在“天城”的四公爵当中，一人业已亡故，两人遭到放逐，在位者目前只剩伊德里斯一人。
Just one week before Chu Shilang arrived in Baghee, Alex Albert received an order from "Sky City" that he must immediately detain Chu Shilang when Chu Shilang arrived. "Report to His Royal Highness Pu Wang!" Facing the communication screen that was specially transported to the ward, Alex Albert raised the volume. "This matter has been full of doubts from the very beginning. I believe that Chu Shilangqing is absolutely impossible to harm His Royal Highness. Please give him a chance to make a public statement before then." However, it was not the feudal lord but Idris that appeared on the coarse-grained screen of the communication screen. Alex Albert asked to talk directly to the feudal lord, but Idris snorted coldly. "I also want to know how it is possible for His Royal Highness to see you. His Highness was unfortunately attacked by vicious thugs and is now lying on the bed wounded. Of course, Chu Shilang, who instigated the thugs behind the scenes, is guilty." "Since this is the case, show the evidence, and belittle Chu Shilang, one of the four dukes, as the mastermind of the assassination without any evidence, and even arrest him. This is an act of contempt for dignity and human rights!" "If Chu Shilang really has any grievances, he should go directly to the vassal king and say it. If he thinks he has a clear conscience, who told him to give up the opportunity to defend himself and flee in fear of crime, wouldn't it mean that he acquiesced in his crime? Aya Sir Li Albert, if Chu Shilang arrives in Baghee soon and you let him go, then I will attack you, the accomplice who sheltered the criminals, and I hope you will be mentally prepared." "If you want to talk big, it depends on the target. Do you want to compete with me, Alex Albert, in the ability to use soldiers?" "That's really interesting. I think you're the one talking big. If you lost to Fang Xiuli twice in a row, what right do you have to talk about how to use your troops?" Idris mocked, and the verbal exchange between the two dukes was interrupted. By the time Alex Albert spoke again, the speed of light had advanced thirty million kilometers during this period. "...I can't lose to you, Idris." Alex Albert lowered his voice, but the sharp tone pierced through Idris. "If you have a great talent and strategy that surpasses Fang Xiuli, prove it to me! Just lead an unprecedented army to attack me, and I will order a golden coffin that suits you best, and send you back to Tiancheng!" This was probably the most impulsive speech in Albert's life.And a large amount of blood was flowing in the blood vessels of Idris's face, and the cartilage in his throat slid up and down. After finally adjusting his breathing, Idris squeezed out a sound that was close to a growl from the corner of his mouth. "I should be able to interpret your words as a formal declaration of war, Mr. Albert." "Otherwise, how else can I explain it! Stop being hypocritical, you idiot!" The last sentence was full of explicit and provocative tone. Aleksandr Albert, who was always considered the most impersonal, looked angry at this moment, and his expression was very vivid; Idris was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, and his capillaries were forced to rupture. "Just wait and see! I'll kill you!" With this blunt offensive statement as the final ending, the communication was cut off, and the screen of the interstellar communication screen was completely white...
"...That's the reason. Even if the feudal lord lets me go, Sir Idris will never let it go. He will definitely come to kill me, which means I have no choice." Chu Shilang stared at his cousin of the same age in surprise. "I never knew Sir Alex Albert had such a childish side. In the past, I always thought you were mild-tempered and steady in doing things." "I thought so too, but in the end, even I was deceived, probably because I have always longed to be such a person but have not been able to do so." The memories of Albert went back to the past, which was a memory shared by the two of them, and Chu Shilang remained silent because he didn't know how to respond. "Qing Chu Shilang, do you hate my mother?" This was an expected question, but Chu Shilang had to struggle to give a negative answer, and Albert seemed to understand his reaction, and did not continue to ask: "Really?" "I can understand your hatred, but when I was young, my mother told me that you must never hate others, but hate yourself if you want to hate." Alex Albert turned his gaze to a corner of the ceiling. "My mother has always been a woman with a strong wrist. As a son, I can't deny it, but maybe it's just a kind of acting. Anyway, all this is over. Now that it has evolved into such a broken situation, we should seriously think about what to do in the future. That's what matters." Chu Shilang nodded silently in agreement, he knew very well that when Idris cut off the interstellar communication, Alex Albert also cut off a part of the spiritual wiring connected to the past. Chu Shilang found a medium-sized hotel, which was only a three-minute walk from the hospital where Albert was recuperating, and set it as an office and dormitory.This hotel named "Abiwan" is a ten-story building, with office functions from the first floor to the sixth floor, the seventh floor is the guard's duty room, the eighth floor is the main cadre's dormitory, the ninth floor and the tenth floor The building is Chu Shilang's residence.Falmy's room is on the ninth floor, Princess Lydia and Francia's room is on the tenth floor, Chu Shilang's private office is on the sixth floor, the living room is on the ninth floor, and the bedroom is on the tenth floor. All the specific arrangements were handed over by Chu Shilang to Falmy for execution. He became Chu Shilang's senior adjutant again, and he seemed to be Chu Shilang's confidant in the eyes of the outside world, and at the same time he continued to show others with related actions.There is another person who also regards Falmy as a confidant, and he must be loyal to this person, and this person is Princess Lydia of the Ebinger Kingdom.Seeing the princess looking idle, Falmy stepped forward to talk to her. "Are you missing your grandfather, princess." Princess Lydia did not continue to answer. She stared at the ground scenery that had been away for more than a year. She looked down at the mediocre atrium with a fountain and replied. "I don't dare to go back without any gifts. As the royal family, I must try to fight for the country... that's called... fighting for interests, but I can't do it yet, so I can't go back now." People are always homesick...!The way Falmy contemplates the princess' mood also shows that his imagination has improved.Princess Lydia turned to Falmy to express another worry in her heart. "Fare, do you think the Titanian Army will attack the Kingdom of Ebinger?" "No, you can rest assured about this." Falmy categorically stated that although he feels a little sorry for Princess Lydia, in fact, Titania does not take the Kingdom of Ebinger seriously at all, regardless of whether the Kingdom of Ebinger wants to remain neutral from the outside or join the vassal faction Or anti-vassal faction of any kind, as innocuous as a debilitating mosquito on the surface of clothing. But suddenly, Falmi noticed a possibility. This situation does not belong to the category of strategy but political strategy. What will happen to the countries that vote for the anti-vassal lord faction?At that time, "Sky City" may attack the Kingdom of Ebinger and destroy this poor and weak star country to make an example of others.If it is Mr. Idris, it is very possible that Farmi's determination is not based on a fair evaluation, it should be said that it is a preconceived bad impression, and this preconceived notion is affecting Farmi's decision on the future direction .Once Chu Shilang leaves "Tiancheng", Idris will become the agent of the vassal king to control the overall situation, and Falmi will never recover. If he chooses to stay under Chu Shilang's command, at least he will have the opportunity to create his own future, and Coming here made him feel that he had a place to play, and the sense of alienation and isolation he had felt during the period when he was stationed on Tilun Huo was also swept away. After much consideration, it was indeed a correct choice. "I swear that I will return to Tiancheng as a victor next time!" He made a decision like this in his heart, but his footsteps were still far away from complete confidence. He only discovered a shocking fact now, that is, if he continued to deduce the current situation, he was bound to fight against the vassal king Yashuman.The vassal king is a symbol of Titania's power and an object of awe. Can the combination of Alex Albert and Chu Shilang really defeat him? But now, he locked away his inner anxiety for the time being, and had to show his courage as a knight in front of the princess. "Princess, let's go to the tea room. I heard that there are more than forty kinds of fruit pies in this restaurant. You can eat them for a long time." Falmy was already an expert on sweets. On the other hand, although Chu Shilang has been dismissed as the commander-in-chief, he has not yet officially resigned. Once he is dismissed, who will command the Titanian troops stationed in Baghee?Reinstated by Alex Albert?However, Alex Albert ignored the notice of "Sky City" and welcomed Chu Shilang into Baghee without authorization. Alex Albert and Chu Shilang refused to obey the order of "Sky City", and the Titania Center will regard them as traitors thieves and punish them.
Titania vs. Titania's civil strife. Now it has entered a situation that is enough for people in the whole universe to be stunned. Before that, human society was only divided into two races, "Titania and Non-Titania". The formula of "Dania VS Anti-Titania" is repeated.When a brand-new illustration beyond imagination is going on in front of them, most people cannot judge or decide what attitude they should take to face it. The planet Baghuo is still under the occupation of the Titanian Army. Perhaps it should be renamed "It has been transferred to the rule of the Anti-Titanian Army". Just trying to express the situation correctly will bring people into unprecedented confused. "If Sir Albert also breaks away from the vassal's command, then there is no legal basis for continuing to station in Baghee, and Titania should be asked to retreat." Some people put forward the above opinions, but because they are too unrealistic, they cannot win the approval of the majority. "The situation is getting weird now, which side is our government going to support? Or remain neutral?" "In any case, if Baghsiah continues to be used as a base by the rebels, we will definitely be fully attacked by the Titanian army." "It's too bad, how did things turn out like this?" The councilors and bureaucrats of Baghsu discussed and exchanged opinions with each other, and the voice that was originally whispering quickly turned into a high-spirited talk due to the excitement of the crowd. "Just take the opportunity to join the AJ Alliance and defeat the undefeated Titania's ruling system in one go. What do you think?" The "AJ" of the "AJ Alliance" comes from the first characters of the names of Alex Albert and Chu Shilang respectively. In addition, there are also less elegant names such as "Two Dukes Agreement" and "Anti-vassal King Faction". These days, the outside world has called the two of them to work together.In fact, "anti-Idris faction" may be more appropriate, and it is strange that no one has brought it up. "But the vassal king Yashuman is still alive. Even if the AJ alliance openly rebelled, there is not much chance of winning. It would be better to join forces with the vassal king to eliminate the AJ alliance and return to the ruling system of Titania to coexist with it, wouldn't it be better?" "How can there be such a good thing in the world. Once the AJ alliance is eliminated, the power of the feudal lord will become stronger. At that time, the attitude towards us Baghsiu will definitely be a further high-handed order." "Yeah, why do we have to assist the vassal? No matter which side wins between the vassal faction of Titania and the AJ alliance, maintaining a neutral position is the best policy." "You can't just stand by and watch, you should find a way to subtly intervene, and design to make them both lose. This is a great opportunity to destroy Titania's ruling system." "Stop making trouble, it's not playing electric toys, please avoid getting involved in this dispute, don't forget that the Titania family has always been very united, if we make a move casually, if we self-defeating and let them fight with the enemy, we will be in bad luck , Bad luck!" All the Baghees have almost become commentators on Titania's political battle, and their emotions are in a strange excitement.The regime of the Titania family was originally as strong and stable as a star in its prime, without any wavering at all, but now it has undergone drastic changes, and a slight mistake may collapse. This turning point in history is more exciting than anesthetics. "Mr. Albert and Mr. Chu Shilang have a large fleet of 20,000 ships, which can be called the most powerful armed corps in the universe. Think about who else in Tiancheng can compete with them?" "But that is Titania's army, not Sir Albert's private army. Once the vassal king publicly declares them to be the public enemies of Titania, the 20,000 fleet will really obey the orders of Albert How much will you have?" "Does it mean that the disobedient fleet will turn back and attack Sir Albert? However, Sir Albert has always been loved by the generals." "Now everyone's awe of the vassal king has increased again." "The feudal lord? He is an out-and-out monster." "He's the most incomprehensible." Having said that, everyone shut their mouths. On the one hand, they were tired from chatting; on the other hand, they felt an indescribable sense of oppression spontaneously when the statue-like appearance of Arshuman appeared in their minds. On April 1st, Alex Albert and Chu Shilang were still discussing future countermeasures in the hospital. One of the topics was to come up with a righteous name that could justify their armed resistance against the vassal king Yashuman At this time, Chu Shilang had a secret case. "Fight against the courtiers on the king's side!" Upon hearing Chu Shilang's words, Albert patted his hands. "I see, is the target Idris? In this way, the righteous name can be established, because the vassal king himself did not make any official comments on the matter of Chu Shilang, maybe it was Idris who casually Let go." "It's possible that Idris can't be forced." With the goal of eradicating Idris, the AJ League announced its rebellion, and Idris will become a political target in an instant.Assuming that the AJ Alliance wins the military victory, the feudal lord is likely to sacrifice Idris in exchange for a peace agreement when he is desperate. Chu Shilang will withdraw from the stage of life, and Idris's triumphant song will also be played. "Idris, who was regarded as a target, is pitiful, but we who are forced by the situation and have to rebel also need sympathy. Whether it is hostility or subordination, we now have to dance on the giant palm of the lord." "You mean, even if the three dukes join forces, they can't beat the feudal king alone?" "That's right, that's why he can surpass his elder brother and become the vassal king." Arshuman's brother, Falmy's father Estella, died unexpectedly just before he planned to challenge his brother's authority, and his son is now serving in Chu Shilang's camp. It seems that the father and son Neither of them could stay safely under Arjuman's feet. It is necessary to take the trouble to confirm one point here. Both Albert and Chu Shilang are Tiedabaya people. They understand that it is a delusion to seek a peaceful solution with bare hands. Protect yourself by force, but this is not in the spirit of humanity, and the way Titania rules the universe is the worst reality.Alex Albert suggested: "Do you think this method is good? We sent secret envoys to meet His Majesty Harusha VI of the Vldana Empire, and asked him to issue a secret edict ordering us to attack the vassals. At least through the legal effect of the Vldana Empire, we have Absolutely legitimate reasons to lead troops to revolt." "Of course Harusha VI must be overjoyed, but the matter probably can only end here. His Majesty the Emperor always only likes to punish Titania in his dreams." If you intend to use the emperor's secret edict as a political bargaining chip, you must publish it publicly. At that time, the vassal king will coerce the VI to declare that the secret edict is invalid, and may even take this opportunity to force Harusha VI to abdicate; , it would be more appropriate to publicly state that it will respect the court of Verdana in the future as in the past, and there is no need for any substantive commitment at all, then Alex Albert and Chu Shilang will leave a good impression on Harusha VI's mind Impression, and the evaluation of "Sky City" that continues to oppress Harusha VI will drop sharply. "By the way, let Earl Elman return to Tiancheng, and let him convey to His Royal Highness the fact that the two of us have no two hearts." This was not Chu Shilang's original intention. He did not think that Earl Elman would truthfully defend Albert and Chu Shilang after returning to "Sky City". The farther away from him, the better, because in his opinion, the character Elman is only harmful but not beneficial. To put it bluntly, he is useless. He is currently fighting against an unprecedentedly powerful enemy. It is wise to protect yourself by allowing someone to drag you back, and keeping a respectful distance. Fortunately, there is another suitable person who can send Elman back to "Tiancheng", that is, Chu Shilang's captive, Brigadier General Nostiz. Brigadier General Nostitz had been depressed all day long after his arrest, and it was only natural that he would have such a reaction in such a situation.He is not a person who is so weak that he can't see whether the other party lied about surrendering or not, but because the other party is a member of the four Dukes of Titania, he personally boarded the enemy ship to show respect. Keeping his duty has had the opposite effect, no wonder he is not happy, and now he has been released by Chu Shilang and entrusted to escort Earl Elman Titania back to "Sky City".Chu Shilang solemnly apologized to Brigadier General Nostitz for his previous faux pas, and shook hands with him, expressing the hope that he would see him active again on the battlefield in the near future. The political performance shown.Sure enough, Nostics was deeply moved, and promised on the spot that he would definitely send Earl Elman back to "Sky City" unscathed, and then backed away from Chu Shilang. At the same time, before Earl Elman set off, Chu Shilang also There is no restriction on his actions in a planned way. At least compared to Brigadier Nostitz, Chu Shilang's behavior is indeed much worse. The military guidance and deployment are entrusted to Alex Albert. Chu Shilang is mainly engaged in political and diplomatic instigation. The first step is to start from within Titania, because Chu Shilang heard a strange rumor that the protagonist is Farah who came from "City of Heaven".After collecting this information, Falmi stated that Farah had been summoned by the vassal and had revealed an important secret to him in private. "Should Farah be summoned for interrogation, Your Excellency?" "It's useless, Sir Fala, what the vassal said to Farah may not be the truth. His Royal Highness is best at intimidating others with duplicity lies. No matter what he said to Farah, I think he just They just want to cause confusion for us." However, sooner or later, Farah's matter must be resolved, of course not to be killed, but since Chu Shilang and Alex Albert have raised the flag of rebellion against "Sky City", it is necessary to follow the example of Teifania's predecessors and make it clear that they The slogan of the operation.Ideals alone cannot win in reality, but they are a powerful tool for guiding principles and policies. Since you cannot add a friend, you must at least find a way to eliminate an enemy. "What countermeasures should we take against Xiuli?" When Albert asked this question, Chu Shilang tilted his head slightly and thought for a while. "No, let's put Fang Xiuli aside for now, one day he will take the initiative to contact us, as long as we don't shut ourselves up and keep a posture of being ready to entertain guests at any time." "Can you predict when he will contact us?" Albert continued to ask questions, while Chu Shilang fell into deep thought again. "I can't come up with the right numbers, but I can answer the question in another way." "What time is it?" "The time is before and after Sir Idris came into contact with them." In response to Chu Shilang's reply, Albert nodded and responded with a shallow smile.Purely in terms of military talent, Idris does not have any human qualities that can hold a sense of superiority over Alex Albert. I really don't understand how much the feudal king Arjoman has for Idris' talents. expect? “如果以藩王的做法，他可能会提出优提待遇的保证，利诱方修利一行人成为他旗下的佣兵，就算他将实战部队的总指挥权交给方修利，我也不会吃惊。” 听完褚士朗的意见后，亚历亚伯特的嘴角勾勒出会心的笑容。 “那真是太好了，即使改换阵营，方修利仍然免不了要跟我一战，希望在二败之后能来个一胜。” 个性上令人感受到其精神力所兼具之强韧与柔软的异母表兄弟泛起笑意，褚士朗看着他的笑容，脑海里不禁描绘出一个略嫌异样的光景，方修利一行人会做出如何的选择呢？ 这一年的四月二十日，以铁达尼亚无地藩王亚术曼的名义正式诏告，褫夺亚历亚伯特与褚士朗包括公爵名号在内一切的公职与相关权利。一年前齐聚在“天城”的四公爵当中，一人业已亡故，两人遭到放逐，在位者目前只剩伊德里斯一人。
