Chapter 704, what do you want to do?
“What on earth do you want to do?”
There was deep doubt in Gallardo’s words.
To be honest, he didn’t believe that Gu Hang would fight against the empire.
He had thought this way before, but the Iron Armor War, to a great extent, cleared up many doubts about Gu Hang.
Because, in the early days of the Iron Armor War, Humphrey Paul ignored the past and sent an invitation to the alliance. If the Alliance was willing, it would be a perfect opportunity to join the rebellion with the Iron Armor Chapter.
Just look at the subsequent developments.
Just a piece of iron armor and a swarm of insects behind it would have already led to consecutive defeats on the northern and western fronts. It was up to the alliance's performance on the southern front to turn the tide.
If there had been no alliance, the Alfonzo sect would not have been destroyed in the first place. This was another powerful military force; the defeat of the northern and western fronts was still foreseeable, and in addition, it had already proven its ability to fight The very powerful Southern Front Alliance defected. The Empire not only had to re-establish the battlefield on the northern and western fronts to deal with the threat of Iron Armor, but also had to build a powerful army to fight against the Alliance.
When the time comes, can we still maintain the offensive?
I'm afraid it won't work.
The cooperation between Iron Armor and the Alliance may not only affect the Spider Web Universe and the three adjacent Universes, but may also turn the entire Eastern Territory into a mess for more than a dozen Universes. Even if the empire can mobilize forces from all parties to deal with it, the form of war is likely to result in a stalemate.
When dealing with Tie Kai, no matter how the tactics failed or how many divisions were lost, the overall strategy of the empire was still strategic offensive, and the goal was to eliminate Tie Kai, the rebel regime.
And if it really comes to the point of cooperation between the Iron Armor and the Alliance, let’s not talk about whether they will eventually be able to destroy the empire. At least, for a long time, the various forces formed by the empire will It should only be in the stage of strategic confrontation or even strategic defense. Only after long-term consumption can other considerations be made.
At that time, although Gu Hang used various arguments to delay his participation in the war, which caused some murmurings from Holy Terra, in the end he not only did not agree to stand with Tie Kai, but also after participating in the war, He immediately performed very well and quickly became the biggest contributor to the victory of this fifteen-year war in the later stages.
Now you say that Gu Hang is a traitor and has a rebellious heart?
That’s really unjustifiable.
He didn’t rebel at that time, why would he rebel now?
Have you achieved great success?
Although the empire is called the ‘Empire’ Kingdom, the Emperor has long been sitting on top of the Kingdom of God. The people in charge of the central affairs of the Empire are the high lords of the Supreme Council. Gu Hang wants to rise to power?
That’s totally fine!
This is even what Gallardo expected.
This is what he said during the phone call with Gu Hang.
After first asking the question 'What do you want to do? Ability, you have many options! Come on, I can find a way for you and your wife to become a higher-level Astra Militarum Grand Marshal and Admiral."
"The next step is to go. Competing for the position of Supreme Marshal of the Astra Militarum. Seriously speaking, the alliance's current army can also serve as a top-level Astra Militarum legion. With their support, you can definitely compete, no matter who is the current one. Xue Yongsheng, the supreme marshal, is no other candidate for general marshal. There is no way he can compete with you in terms of merit. When the time comes, I will fully support you.”
"After you obtain the position of Supreme Marshal of the Astra Militarum, you can step into the Supreme Council of the Empire and naturally become one of the rulers of the Empire."
"Even if you think you are the commander of the Astra Militarum, This path is a bit difficult, after all, you haven't really come out of the Astra Militarum system, but taking a step back, you still have the option of spiritual training. The Chief Grand Master of the Order can also run for a seat on the Supreme Council. With the psychic power you have shown, is there any psyker more powerful than you in the entire empire?"
"Although, The Spiritual Order has not obtained this seat for many years, but as long as you are qualified, we can operate. What's more, because it has not been able to obtain the seat all year round, the Spiritual Order has not been able to obtain this seat for many years. The top and bottom of the Nun Order have long been looking forward to it. They urgently need a strong leader who can lead them back to the highest political stage of the empire. "In short, you have a choice, and you have a chance to become the highest political level in the empire." The one on the stage. Even..."
At this point, Gallardo lowered his voice. Said: "Even when we are stronger in the future, I will have a seat and you will have a seat, and then we will find a way to get a few more, and unite a few... We may even have a chance to remove that old guy Qi Bodu from the position of prime minister. It’s overthrown! When the time comes, it’s not impossible for you to be the Sun Lord and me to be your deputy to regain the glory of the past!”
Hearing this, Gu Hang almost laughed out loud.
This guy Gallardo is really just a kid.
When following the Sun Lord, there was little chance to reveal it, but once the Sun Lord died, he was the smartest and fastest runner; after entering Holy Terra, he kept the thigh of the former Prime Minister of the Ministry of Justice Ou Kyren. But after he got Qi Bodu's thicker thigh, he sold Ou Curen without hesitation. Now, although he showed great respect for Qi Bodu in all aspects, he actually harbored the idea of overthrowing him in the future...
However, after this, Gu Hang once again confirmed one thing Thing: Gallardo still trusted him as a close friend. Otherwise, according to his character, he would never tell anyone such words as "I will deal with Qi Bodu in the future."
A fatal thing.
It is precisely because of this that Gu Hang also decided to reveal a little bit of his thoughts to Gallardo.
“You ask me what I want?”
“It’s actually very simple: the highest position in the alliance has never changed, it’s called Governor, and it represents certain of my true thoughts.”
“I just want to be a governor.”
“Like a planetary governor, I will pay my due taxes to the empire safely; I will promise to the empire to solve the problem The empire can supervise me and evaluate me, but don’t tell me what to do.”
"It's that simple."
After listening, Gallardo became even more confused: "But... why? I understand what you said, but... to be an oversized planetary governor? With the Supreme Council The position ratio of thirteen people?”
In his concept, the two are not equivalent at all.
He understood what Gu Hang meant, but he was even more confused.
Gu Hang smiled: "It would be better if you could enter the Thirteen-person Council. But I only accept one way to enter: as the chairman of the universe, send representatives to enter."
Gallardo was silent.
