Chapter 728: Respect to the Emperor
727: Respect to the Emperor
"Fighting? So you came home on vacation because of the fight?" Francis asked in return.
“Well, at yesterday’s parliamentary meeting, the member of the Surust people wanted to beat Shu Mai, the chairman of the commercial guild, and then a melee broke out. In short, more than 30 members participated After the fight, I took a break and went home," Claire Underwood said.
“For what?”
"The 18th Army of the Republic is sieging the planet Sulust. The Commercial Guild is unwilling to send additional troops for reinforcements on the grounds that they have already lost too many fleets to the 18th Army."
" It sounds like this is our chance."
"Why, someone beat you up as the Prime Minister, and you are still worried about the country's affairs?"
Francis Underwood touched. He touched the bruises on his neck, with a complicated expression on his face, "Tang Xiao."
"He actually strangled you? Frank, what kind of fight did you get into? I can imagine you fighting together. "Claire Underwood is a little weird.
"Thirteen years ago, when he asked me to help him, he was just a young boy. He told me a lot and promised me a lot..." Francis took the wine glass from Claire's hand and said After taking a sip, "I can feel that he is very jealous of me, even a little afraid. Of course, he has to be afraid, because what he is about to ask me to go to is a stage that is much larger than the Dawn Planet - the Parliament Building of the Galactic Republic." "
He put down his wine glass and breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as I have any other ideas and say something in the Republic Council, maybe the Dawn Planet will fall into a place of eternal destruction. His childish performances at that time, It seems that he is still vivid in his mind."
"He is different now, at least, he dares to hit you." Claire smiled.
"Hit me? You are rarely on Dawn Planet now, and you no longer know him. Now he..." Francis' eyes became deep, "I just signed a decree, Koshe Our planet is involved in a leak on the planet Cronte, so we will use necessary means to find out the real culprit in a short time, and we are allowed to bear any necessary losses on the premise of ensuring that the real culprit is killed."< br>
Claire took a brief taste and his expression suddenly became fierce, "This is simply a massacre order!! Why should Tang Xiao let you sign it! He gave this kind of order, so he should be allowed to bear the infamy. ! Is this why you fought with him? If I were here, I swear I would put a bottle of wine on his head!"
"That's why, Claire, he is no longer what he used to be. Now, every one of us, yes, everyone in the fourth civilization, must continue to move forward with him, toward the place full of fog, blood, and... The road ahead of fire and steel. "Francis said: "I signed this order voluntarily. By the way, he did not fight with me. He was on the planet Nashada at the time, but just sent me a communication. That's all."
"This...is he a Jedi?" Claire was shocked.
A smile appeared on the corner of Francis Underwood's mouth, "The promise he made to me was to be the Prime Minister of the Empire. This step is still far away. I am waiting for the day when he fulfills his promise. . No, it should be said that I believe more than ever that he can fulfill this promise."
He raised his glass and saluted out of the window, "To the Emperor."
After that. , he drank most of the glass of wine in one gulp.
......
The outer ring of the Milky Way, the planet Kosher.
This planet once held more than 10,000 prisoners and more than 10,000 staff on it. Later, the prisoners rebelled, killed all the guards, gained autonomy, and then became the home of smugglers. Up to now, there are more than 40,000 people living on this planet, most of whom are engaged in smuggling, bounty hunting or mercenary work.
The hyperspace channels here are so complicated that many people even call them hell. Being able to drive a spaceship smoothly across the Kosher Passage can be said to be the highest honor for a spaceship pilot.
This is just like the old Sichuan-Tibet Highway. Drivers who can complete this route will be able to drive on all roads around the world.
However, such a channel is not worth mentioning to those with strong Force sensitivity.
With a flash of white light, a black Hammerhead-class cruiser and four Gray Horse-class escort aircraft carriers left hyperspace and appeared outside of the planet Keshel!
Without any greeting, the hangar platform of the Gray Horse-class escort aircraft carrier unfolded, and hundreds of half-moon-shaped Hiigaran stealth fighters poured out, flying directly to every spacecraft sailing around the planet, and then Without warning, open fire and shoot!
The Hiigaran stealth fighters have entered a state of invisibility, and those spaceships modified from cargo ships and civilian ships cannot even see their enemies!
This is a one-sided massacre!
Then hundreds of ghost fighter jets took off, rushed directly into the planet's atmosphere, and launched a brutal and inhumane bombing of the residential areas on the planet's surface!
The pilots did not care whether the objects appearing on the fire control radar were residential buildings or military camps. They received only one instruction -
Towards every movable target, and any possible Hide your target somewhere, open fire and shoot!
Whoosh~~~~Whoosh~~~~~A formation of ghost fighter jets passed by at ultra-low altitude and high speed. In the invisible state, everyone could only see a distortion of the air and the sound of strong winds being stirred up around them. .
Immediately afterwards, dense pulse lasers fell from the sky, hitting the ground and setting off a series of small explosions, and then cluster rockets were launched!
Boom! boom! boom! boom! ! A simple house built later burned in the explosion and then collapsed. Countless screams and calls for help came from the ruins.
There were adults and children, men and women, old people, and the wounded...
But then the distortion of the air flew over again, and dense pulse lasers were fired at these screams. There was another burst of shooting!
Soon, the scene fell into silence, except for the sound of burning flames, there was no sound.
Then, every resident with a communicator in his hand received a public frequency communication at the same time.
[...Someone among you leaked the information on the planets Erin and Kronte to the Galactic Republic. If you hand them over, you can live. 】
A large number of transport planes flew out and began to land directly at several major settlements on the planet.
【...Maybe you want to ask why you have to suffer this unreasonable disaster. And my answer is that some of you have done things you shouldn't have done and provoked people you shouldn't have provoked. 】
A large number of heavily armed Kali people wearing Titan security combat uniforms filed out of the transport plane.
[...I am the angel of death, the angel of death...the one who brings death. Welcome your death...】
