Chapter 857: 8. Foot Sound of Military Boots (1)

ps. With today's update, by the way, we can vote for the starting point 515 fan festival. Everyone has 8 votes. The voting also gives starting point coins.
Mountain Cliff Castle Command Center. Elves in various uniforms shuttle through the hall-like space of the Opera House. Army Green, Navy White, Air Force Blue, Civil Officer Yellow, Standing Collar, Open Collar, and a dozen or so suits And work clothes.
This is by no means routine. In order to prevent confusion and overlapping of functions, inter-departmental negotiations must go through institutionalized official documents and related channels. This is one of the reasons why consortiums, defense forces, and Alfheim can cooperate smoothly, and there is no factional dumping and bureaucracy like Charlemagne.
Now the non-routine involves another reason.
As the base of the headquarters of the headquarters, in addition to handling all kinds of military affairs, the government affairs that must be ordered by the highest executive officer are also sent here, so government officials can also set foot in this military banned area.
Some people in the country have made some rhetoric about this. In their view, the military and political power is a dictatorship, but what is the parliament doing? Simply dissolve to save public money and spend money on more important places. Grandpa and grandma go back to their respective homes and go home to embrace their grandchildren and enjoy the joy of the world. Wouldn’t it be beautiful?
It is this part of the liberals and the conservatives in the parliament that are saying this kind of weirdness. The radicals and part of the military are the fuel. The latter group said that this idea is very good and powerful, and it must be implemented immediately. Whoever dares to stop is the one who should immediately shut them up in a very yellow and violent way. The liberals immediately launched a counterattack, stating that this was a violation of the Constitution, a subversion of the state, and a parity with Charlemagne... The two sides fought happily, and they all fell apart.
—It’s really superficial guys.
Once again, this feeling emerged from Brun Hill.
The existence of competition within the organization is not only a negative effect, the clever superiors will always try to avoid the emergence of a dominant situation. Emperor mind surgery is one reason, and another reason is that a single faction within an organization often means speed and low efficiency. In order to ensure the vitality of the organization, it is necessary to maintain a certain degree of competition. But the war is coming. But shouldn't be passionate about this kind of thing. As wise men and leaders above civilians, they have an obligation to look further and be comfortable with all kinds of events. In this sense... The council and other factions are still a little boyish, so you're welcome. Is embarrassing.
They are only crooked now, and as long as they get results, noisy crows can only shut their mouths.
Overlooking the busy scene from the rear of the executive seat protruding from the platform on the second floor of the Opera House, Brun Hill held back the excitement and tried to maintain the poker face.
The long wait is coming to an end. After more than a thousand years, even the word dormant will become empty, and finally from the forgotten dark corner into the stage under the sun, countless ancestors gave everything including life, regret and Do not pass away in silence, pass on the long-cherished wish to future generations, and pin hope in the distant future. Now, the longing is finally paid, and Brenhill can feel that through the of blood, those great souls are connected with her. Watch this long-awaited moment that changes the world.
It would be nice if the picture of "that" could be broadcast together, but the international situation has not yet had the leeway to withstand that kind of impact. The reappearance of the elf as a force on the international stage will make many people unable to sleep. Feel it. Now just because of the threat of Charlemagne, there is a possibility of compromise. After all, no one is so stupid that when he is strangled by his neck, he will refuse the help of another person simply because he cares about that person's origin, beliefs, character, etc. On the other hand, you have to consciously control yourself here. There is no need to lose what you deserve for a while.
(Besides, even if there are no other audiences, as the fireworks for celebration and the smoke for declaring war, "that" is fully qualified.)
Brenhill's gaze moved downward. The terminal in front of the podium is playing every move in another room.
In a control center of No. 1 smaller than Shanya Castle, more than 30 men and women are busy with the terminal in front of them, and the large broadcast interface above them projects their busy achievements, managing the radar and optics of the object. Observe the image. Various data and correction information. Blocking the hustle and bustle here, you can also hear the tense tone unique to young men and women when they first enter the actual combat.
"System, start moving."
"Attitude control is turned on, height correction is performed, and the gyroscope confirms stability."
"The front sight guidance control is activated and connected with the navigation signal to confirm."
Since last night. A base located in the extreme north removed the disguise of "meteorological observation" and began to activate the "system". The "system" has a massive body that is second to none in the defense equipment sequence. The internal structure is also unprecedentedly complicated. With the immense power, the use and maintenance process is also cumbersome, and each step must be cautious, such as walking on thin ice. Even if the wrong step is taken, the entire system is considered to be scrapped lightly, and in severe cases, it may even cause environmental disasters of varying levels.
Cumbersome, complicated, expensive, and dangerous.
As a matter of fact, let's say that things with the above characteristics go down the production line, and the conception stage should be killed. But for the moment that changed the world, the "system" was still created, and now is the time to prove its value.
When the bell rang, the staff and officers put aside their work and looked up at the ceiling.
Loudspeakers throughout the inside and outside of the Cliff Castle deliver a crisp and sweet female voice.
"It is still 15 minutes before the official release. All the personnel will enter the post and perform the final inspection before the release. Repeat, repeat the distance..."
The broadcast continued, and the base was filled with screams, yelling, shoving, arguing, and every elf — officer, soldier, official, employee was covered with tension and restlessness — but no one was terrified.
Admittedly, the entire elf camp is about to face the unknown future of chaos, and there is no way out in one step. Either all will be victorious to win, or there will be nowhere to go. At this critical juncture, it is normal to be anxious and hesitant.
But what about?
The distinguished adult will surely create a miracle again, the elven camp will usher in a brilliant future, and victory and glory will be with Gilmania.
They have no doubt about it.
############
While the elves were busy, the citizens of Rudes were not idle, and were even more busy. It was just too busy to touch the ground, but the moods on both sides were completely different.
On the 6th, Ludes was clear, and the darkened streets were filled with the gloom unique to the fire scene. The disgusting burnt smell lingered in the air for a long time. Citizens who casually found a cloth covered their mouths and noses frowned to clean up the broken walls. Whenever they found survivors or remains, they immediately summoned nearby companions to help.
The progress of clearing the site by manpower alone is naturally slow, but at first it lacked large civil engineering machinery and enough magicians; secondly, there were survivors buried under the rubble. Rough work will cut off their survival.
Dirty, stench, fatigue, and unreasonable bad bureaucracy, everyone is pushed to the limit, and conflicts and fighting will occur from time to time. The riots did not expand only because of the army's presence.
The following people are full of complaints. The big men above had a serious meeting... tearing.
That's right, it is torn the assembly. Minerva thought that the current situation was so tense, and summoning his ministers to the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles would be to discuss the king's illness, disaster relief, and respond to the elven camp and other important issues. But when I saw it on the spot, the style was obviously wrong.
"--No knighthood, no official position, nor how can someone who inherits the blood of the nobility command the army?"
The issue that has been set as the highest priority and the most urgent issue is the treatment of "people who misrepresented the saint girl presumptuously command the army".
"It's just a little clever country girl. It's a crime of great disrespect to command the army over the nobility and military generals. It actually shocked the Prince's place. Such a big rebellion is not tortured to slap the flames. In particular, His Royal Highness is still showing mercy. Rewards? Do people who make such requests have the consciousness of being a noble?"
The new Army Secretary Loire twisted his nervous face. The spitting star published a long speech.
Selling the old man, Loew, who hugged the crown of the crown prince, is not what most people would think, he will only fight his father to eat the old government. The left-wing literary Francois-Marie Arue commented that he was "cold, ruthless, and arrogant". Soon after entering the army, Loire proved with fact that he was far better than his father. It can be said that the Wang family army can quickly transform from the old army, and most of it is due to Loire’s unparalleled organizational ability and hard work. During the army reform, Loire sent a large number of war commissioners and warlords to patrol the garrisons around the country and oversee the process of military reform. The army often misrepresents the number of people who are empty, looking for civilians to cope with inspections, reselling weapons, organizing smuggling and other violations of law and discipline. Once the monitoring system is informed and verified, the officials and soldiers will be quickly dismissed. Then the magical "world evaporation". This violent military and political management system received the full support of the Crown Prince, and any accusations and accusations about Loire were firmly blocked. With the support of Prince Wang and the corpse that was wiped out, Loire successfully pushed forward the military reform.
With the efforts of Loire. The Charlemagne Army has become the top standing army in the world. Well-equipped, large in number, well-trained, and loyal to the Crown Prince. In addition, a large number of reserve officers are also reserved in the Imperial Guard, and only a single command can form a batch of new and powerful combat troops. Finally, Loire used the increasingly large military and political institutions to build the future "killer"-the establishment of a national defense mobilization army with the provincial militia as the main body.
This is an unprecedented feat in the military history of the human country, and at the same time it is the capital that Prince Louis took the risk of, and it is also the political basis for Loire to settle down. Relying on this wealth, Loire Tellier won the title of Marquis, the Minister of the Army and the Minister of War.
Now, the steaming upstart is brazenly indignant and slobbering at the first cabinet meeting after the long sword night.
Originally, this is not surprising. The new official took three fires, and with his background and position, Luwa must seize every opportunity to show his loyalty and ability to the crown prince. As the profound philosophy expressed by Albian slang, "You can beat a hunting dog after training a lion", no valuable tool will inevitably lead to a tragic ending, and Loire's father is a good specimen. Using Cabinet meetings to invite meritorious service is exactly what Loire must do.
So far, it is still within the scope of understanding. The crimes that Kluwa accused... it seems a bit wrong. Commanding beyond authority, succumbing to the enemy, brainless pigs-is this not the typical army? Shouldn't the Army's behavior be a good example and encouragement? How can it be changed to military court? Even if the village girl is not yours, you must suppress it. But other things that need to be dealt with are left unattended. Taking back and forth with "civilians" and "women" to talk about things.
"... Zhujun! It's an emergency now."
As the ministers wandered around, Lowa raised his octave and brought everyone's attention back to his eyes.
"The despicable and shameless ears and heretics are frightened and defeated by the invincible king army under the crown prince. This is a sign of the enemy's exhaustion. It can be asserted here that the elves have no soldiers available! Let's be clear, we are facing It’s a crowd!"
Ying Jing's laughter and applause sounded. In addition to Prince Wang's line, many people who had previously held a neutral position also joined the wave of echoes.
"However, we should not underestimate the rats. The maggots in these ditches have been parasitic in our country for a long time, and God knows how far they have penetrated. How much preparation has been done in the background, how many tricks have been made under the table. Like this tragedy, it is because of this tragedy. The lack of unified command and strong leadership gave the rats a chance."
Has it finally started?
In the thoughtful expression and the wave of echoes, Minerva frowned, who had been silent for a while.
Cite every powerist. The highest priority is to try to grab more power. The only difference between these people is vision and means. Unfortunately, Prince Wang obviously has nothing to do with "long-term vision" and "sophisticated means", and lacks self-knowledge and patience.
That's why I can't wait to play the card of "state of emergency". With no one to stop him, with the army as the backing, holding up the banner of "the first heir to the throne" and starting with the "civilian commanding the army", Exclude the Minerva lineage and put Charlemagne on the track of a military dictatorship.
Put it in the past. Minerva can only accept the status quo, as a royal member and assets waiting for the new family head to decide her and Shire's destiny. Now that she is no longer a passive powerless girl, after seeing the elder brother use strategic magic to kill his father's cold blood without even frowning, Minerva is unwilling to give her fate to the man.
But now is not the time for head-on conflict. The Crown Prince's faction is in the limelight, and the rash opposition will definitely be siege, and the final position may also be lost. Everything will accompany the madman into the abyss of destruction.
Fortunately, she still has the legacy of Richelieu.
"What the Secretary of the Army said."
An open voice echoed in the Hall of Mirrors, and people couldn't help looking sideways at the middle-aged man alongside Loire.
He has a good slender figure, and his perennial career at sea gives him a strong and strong body. The meticulously divided mid-central wavy scrolls and the slightly warped splayed characters reveal an unhurried temperament, and the iconic aquiline nose shows its close blood relationship with the late Prime Minister Richelieu.
Jean Armand de Mailer Blazer. Charlemagne's Secretary of State for the Navy, one of the best commanders of the Royal Navy.
Just listen to the Secretary of the Navy continue to say in a magnetic voice:
"It's just, being a human being. It's a misconception that the commandership belongs... doesn't seem appropriate?"
"Buzzing" whispers rummaged in the mirror hall, and Roy took out his handkerchief, wiping off the cold sweat that did not exist on his forehead.
The subordinates are taboo where they discuss the upper-level changes. No matter which side wins in the end, they will not look at the cheeky cheeks. If they fail to do so, they will die. Not to mention the "commandership" issue that is least likely to be touched. If the offense of "offending commandership" is true, the end will be very promising.
what happened?
First look for this "Charlemagne Code" to see what article 11 says.
That was a short sentence-"King commander Lu Haijun".
Note that it is not "the king is the commander of the army and navy", but "the king is the commander of the army and navy."
The army does not obey the cabinet, and the commander-in-chief is directly controlled by the king himself. This is normal in feudal society. Army-No matter what kind of service, whether it is a standing army or a private lord’s private soldier, it is nominally "His Majesty's Army", and it is reasonable and reasonable for the king to directly command the army. In order to strengthen the central government's control of the army, the kings spared no effort to strengthen the command. When the army reformed, Loire produced two manuals on command of command: Commander of Command and Commander Reference. The first one is the top secret, and only a handful of senior military officers can read it; the latter one is an army textbook, and every soldier must recite it together with "Swordsman". It is very clear: "The essence of command power is power, and its role is beyond the law." "The exercise of command power and its results are not responsible to the cabinet. The cabinet has no right to question and demand the command of the military command and its results. Explanation and criticism."
To put it bluntly, the army can be lawless and above the government! With this "independence of the commandership", the army can run arrogantly or walk alone. As long as the king does not talk, no one can control them.
Luwa's original intention was to strengthen the army's authority, and at the same time lay the groundwork for the crown prince to take over the military and political power after the king became king. As long as there is "independence of the commander-in-chief" as a guarantee, kicking off Richelieu is a very simple matter. But the initiator did not think that he would be kicked by the navy into the pit he dug.
The Navy has lost its greatest reliance and potential allies, and the momentum may not be as good as before. However, with the support of Minerva and the orthodox name of supporting the old king, there is no problem to trip the army. What's more, Loire spit out a "strong leader" and "wise commander" to bring you on the line and pursue a charge of "curse the king" and "great disrespect". That is a catch. The old king is still alive, and it's not yet time for the army's horse dung to come and go. Let's talk about how the city of Condor flew to Versailles before. What happened?
Louis, who had always maintained a detached attitude, was a bit unable to sit still. On the surface, he was still the detached and silent Prince, but the subtext of the Secretary of State for the Navy also stabbed him. He was instructed to write the two books by Loire, and it was him who ordered the City of Condors to start, and it was him who was going to bombard Versailles. After doing so many irresponsible things, the duck cooked at the last minute flew away, and only he knew the taste.
Charles IV suffered a stroke due to severe stimulation. He was lying in bed all day long just breathing more than the dead, but after all, he was not a dead person, his brain could still move, and his fingers could still move. When someone asks him questions, he can also answer "yes" or "no" by ringing the bell. According to the royal doctor, there is no hope of healing, but as long as the meditation is done, the old king may fight in bed for another ten years.
What a joke? ! What the is another ten years of war! It took so much thought and so much dedication, not to see this stupid ending!
As Louis clenched his fists and prepared to forcibly reverse the situation. The steady expression has cracked.
"...?"
Everyone in the mirror hall showed a suspicious expression.
Versailles, Rudes, Verdun, La Rochelle, Metz, Lugdunum, Bradiga, Vichy, Toulon... People in every city under Charlemagne put their hands down Work, looking puzzled upward.
In front of their eyes or on their heads, the air gradually twisted, eventually forming a strange picture of a square and snowflakes.
then……
Dangdang--
The well-known composer Mr. Meng Weidong started to stolen the music for 16 seconds. This song, destined to be used for decades, echoed over Charlemagne for the first time.
There is also a very characteristic opening.
"Good morning, everyone! Today is the 6th of Monday, welcome to watch this show."
A man and a woman in suits and leather shoes appear on the screen, and there are thousands of dumbfounded men and women.
Not only is it because of the picture that appears out of thin air, but also because of that distinctive opening statement. More importantly, the men and women in the picture have slender ears like leaves.
Elves.
A race that has been declared extinct.
Before people could recover from the shock, a new wave of brainstorm swept over.
In the cheerful "Radeczky March", the red flag hunts and flutters, the large ocean liner slowly launches, the tractor harvests in the golden wheat waves, the blond boys and girls wearing brown scarves, the steelworkers make a furnace of molten steel, and red face The young girl is picking apples... The screen of the Qingfeng harvest is rolling and then the camera turns, and the huge and suffocating council center is displayed in front of people. The sweet voice of the female anchor sounded.
"...Due to the continued turmoil in the country~EbookFREE.me~The local governments expressed regret over the royal dispute and expressed reservations. In order to guarantee Kingdom Antai and territorial integrity, the local governments in the northern part of the Kingdom decided to form the Zion Dominion from now on. Maintain a neutral position with the dispute. After the bill was passed, the representatives of the Dominion of the Zion had friendly talks with the representatives of the Crown of Ostolia and Saint-Esteban. The crown of Saint-Esteban bowed into a customs union to eliminate trade barriers and benefit the people..."
News that is enough to shake the world cannot be refused and tampered into the life of the Charlemagne. Everyone is shocked or frightened. Only Roland and Minerva flipped through a cover booklet nominating the "Diplomatic Dialect Encyclopedia" without a word. What is marked.
"There is only one mile left from the war."
Roland, who was in Rudes, closed the booklet, covering the face above the tip of his nose, his mouth overflowing with haggard feelings.
[It is about 515 soon, I hope to continue to impact the 515 red envelope list. By May 15th, the red envelope rain will give back to readers and publicity works. One piece is also love, definitely better! 】(To be continued.)
