Chapter 53, Second Generation Governor


Chapter 53, Second Generation Governor

Gu Hang smiled.

He walked forward and gave Lambert a big hug: "I want to believe you, welcome to join, young comrade."

Lambert's statement was sincere, but Gu Hang didn't completely believe it.

However, this guy has brought a group of people, and he will disarm when he is asked to do so, and he will do what he is asked to do, so what else is there to worry about?

Gu Hang doesn't expect anything from them, and he doesn't know how to use them to do important work. He just cleans the battlefield and works as a porter. Who can do this? Just use it and that's it.

As for trust, it is not expressed through words.

As time goes by and he experiences more things, he will always show his true self.

Moreover, this guy brought an even bigger surprise to Gu Hang.

Following him, in addition to the five hundred armed soldiers, there were more than two thousand refugees.

According to Lambert, they were recruited from outside the city when he set out.

The reason why he did this was that he heard about a businessman named Denison Henry who had recruited refugees for the governor. Thinking about it, the governor's manpower gap was quite large, so he also did this once before setting off.

Not only that, he also arranged for people to carry out long-term migration propaganda outside Fuxing City. Promote that the Governor will have good jobs, good treatment, and will be able to eat, clothe, and not starve to death here.

Yo ho, the young man is very smart.

Gu Hang felt very happy.

For this reason, he was too embarrassed to complain even when he called the old Hodgson.

But there's really nothing to complain about.

The attack should indeed have nothing to do with them, at least there is no evidence to prove this so far. The one who did it was a cultist, and the powerful storm magic made this clear.

Moreover, it was Hodgson who gave him advance warning before the attack.

At that moment, Old Hodgson also said that they had made further progress in their investigation of the cult. They captured two middle-level missionaries from the original Angry Owl sect and learned that the cult was indeed secretly increasing its operations in Fuxing City, and that there might be a plan underway. If you continue following this line, you should gain more.

In addition to the cult issues that Gu Hang used to manipulate the alliance government, Hodgson's performance in other aspects also satisfied Gu Hang.

Sending a grandson here, whether it is to serve him or to be a hostage, is in itself a manifestation of attitude. As for the actual situation, he also made his attitude very clear. Five hundred soldiers and two thousand refugees may not be anything; Hodgson has implicitly promised that in Fuxing City, he will act in accordance with the instructions of the governor and cooperate with the governor.

But Hodgson also said that he needed the Governor to understand his difficulties. He is the Speaker of Parliament, but not a speaker. Directly providing resources, promoting a certain decree, replacing a certain MP, large-scale mobilization of the military... these ultimately require discussion by the entire parliament and the formation of a resolution.

Gu Hang didn't put any pressure on this matter.

It's no use forcing.

At present, Hodgson can probably be regarded as being on his side, at least judging from his attitude. It doesn't make much sense to force him. On the contrary, Gu Hang still needs Hodgson to help him force those congressmen.

This time, Gu Hang chatted with Hodgson for a long time.

From what he needs Hodgson to do, what support he can provide, how to push forward Gu Hang's will step by step, what kind of situation the Fuxing City will reach, and whether Gu Hang will consider re-entering the city; it even touches a little bit about his entry into the league. After truly taking over the authority of the Governor, what kind of policies and reforms will be implemented, and how will the entire planet be able to pay taxes in two years while ensuring that the planet continues to develop...

The conversation was not in-depth, and most of the places were just a taste. After all, Gu Hang didn't fully trust the parliament speaker who had stated that he wanted to stand by his side. But being able to talk about these topics in such a wide range of topics, Gu Hang accepted the parliament speaker to a certain extent.

As for the present, Gu Hang has no plans to visit Fuxing City in the near future.

The problem of the cult has not yet been resolved, and his safety is not guaranteed when he goes to Fuxing City; power is not completely centralized, and it is difficult to use his hands and feet there; he has not accumulated enough strength, and he cannot keep his word when he arrives in Fuxing City... …

But that time isn't too far away.

... Fuxing City, inner city, a private club somewhere.

Three big figures who are well-known throughout the league are gathering here.

These three are all members of the Alliance, and each has a large property in Fuxing City.

However, their faces were all very gloomy.

Bradford said: "Everyone has finished listening to the recording. Don't be silent, let's talk about your thoughts."

He is a business tycoon in Fuxing City. He does not own many industries, but he has strong business channels in the southeast and northwest. Many things produced by Fuxing City can only be sold through his channels; things that Fuxing City does not produce need to be bought through his channels.

In Fuxing City, a place with a commercial hub as its core, one can imagine his status.

After Bradford finished speaking, the old man sitting next to him shook his head and said: "I still can't figure out why old Hodgson did this? Isn't he afraid of repeating the situation of the second-generation governor?"< br>


This man's name is Norris, and his family is an industrial tycoon in Fuxing City. Its enterprises cover important categories such as food factories, chemical factories, and textile factories, and are also involved in the medical industry. He and Wohan were important allies. The collapse of Wohan's industry after Wohan's death had a huge impact on him.

When he mentioned the 'situation of the second generation governor', the expressions of the other two became gloomier.

They all recalled that terrible era.

Twelve years ago, the second-generation governor came to the Raging Star on a frigate. At that time, the alliance was still very powerful. Although the structure was slightly loose, it was in line with the reality of the Raging Owl Star. The major forces would not only bow to orders, but at least respond to the requirements of the alliance government.

This is a solid foundation laid by a generation of governors.

However, this foundation almost collapsed in just six years.

After the governor came to power and took control of the governor's power, he did not take the path of recuperation and development as the previous governor did. He believed that the previous generation of governors had insufficient tax revenue due to their kindness and weakness. The natives of the Raging Owl Star are all disloyal people, and they need to be whipped to pay taxes with the most severe attitude.

He sat in this position for six years. The first two times he paid enough imperial taxes through looting and coercion. But his tyranny also triggered turmoil that swept the entire world.

Rebellions are rising everywhere. Some forces break away from the alliance, some rebel against the alliance, some resist violently, and some are destroyed... The entire planet has suffered huge population losses in six years. This kind of loss includes not only a large number of manpower being turned over as imperial taxes, but also a large number of people dying due to unrest, starving and freezing due to lack of materials...

The first governor's seventeen years of rest and recuperation on the Raging Star were almost ruined. The second-generation governor was naturally unable to support the third taxation and died at the hands of the Imperial Taxation Department.

Those six years are something that no Wrathful Star person wants to live again.

No matter poor or rich.

The last of the three stood up.

He has a burly figure and still wears a camouflage military uniform when gathering with friends.

He was Mondoc, a Union general. In Fuxing City, the 10,000 soldiers, more than 20 aircraft, and 70 tanks on standby are all theoretically his subordinates.

"Everything must get back on track, and old Hodgson's mistakes must be corrected."

"Is Parliament impeaching? I remember that the next parliament will start in four days, but we may not be able to succeed. Old Hodgson has been in business for so many years and has many supporters. It will take a lot of time for us to connect..."

"No." Mondoc rejected the idea, "That's too slow. We need a faster way."

The other two people were stunned.

They saw Mondoc's slightly ferocious expression.
