Vol 2 Chapter 1247: Analysis (Part 1)

Neither Heliga nor Olibate are the kind of people who love unnecessary excitement. Obviously, Liber can be considered to have served what he likes-everything from the simplicity of the welcome ceremony after the "Red Wing" arrived at Gransell Airport to the extravagance of the banquet in the Royal City reflects this. At least for Olibat; enjoying food and wine is undoubtedly more relaxing and enjoyable in his eyes than the need to deal with reporters and media and talk in public ceremonies. Had it not been for him to be reminded gently and implicitly by the Queen on the eve of the banquet, knowing that there are still important matters to discuss after the banquet, otherwise he really wanted to let himself go and get drunk.
But... Heliga imagined the scene for a moment. Even if Libel’s media was merciful at the Queen’s request, in case "His Royal Highness Olibate was drunk in diplomatic activities with Libel" was accidentally revealed to the media in the empire... …I’m afraid Mulla will still take action to prevent this from happening.
In short, Olibate’s performance at the banquet was considered modest. He only drank a bottle of Gran Charina red wine brewed in 1082 on the seven-day calendar, even if he was worthy of his sense of responsibility. Anyway, in the conversation after the guests enjoyed themselves, he remained quite sober and sensible.
The battle meeting room of the Guards in the Royal City is spacious enough to accommodate these ten people. Although it can be regarded as a certain friendship, but now lieutenant Colonel Yulia Schwartz, who is also performing official duties, behaved meticulously and did not intend to retell the past. But no one cares about these now; everyone knows that the content of this conversation can be considered quite confidential.
Yulia and Mulla acted as security guards and stood guard at the door after leaving the meeting room. Sitting on the main seat where Yulia usually sits is the elderly Queen Alicia II. After her 60th birthday three years ago, the old captain seems to be aging faster ; At least from Heliga's point of view, she now seems to be a lot weaker, and she is more dependent on Mrs. Hildan who is also not young.
Representatives from the Erebonian Empire, including Heliga and Olibat, were sitting on the left and right hands of the Queen, which was considered a face-saving treatment. In addition to the Queen, Liber’s representatives include Crown Prince Kolotia; the new and old ace in the army, Lieutenant General Cassius Bright and Colonel Maximilian Sid. The actual supreme rulers in Liber are also the most influential leaders in the various local forces. They are all present except for the mayor of Loriente Klaus. For Heliga and Olibate, they are all present. Is a familiar face. In addition, it also includes Dr. Erica Russell who hurried over after hearing the news-she seems to be here instead of her father, and probably wants to know some first-hand news about the "riding god". Dan Russell, her married husband, was also with her.
After a simple greeting, the two sides quickly entered the topic. Everyone is well aware that afterwards, there will be time to reminisce about the old, but doing so after talking about the main thing will reduce a lot of psychological burden. Cassius was the first to speak on behalf of everyone and asked everyone the highest priority. After sweeping away the domestic aristocracy, it was the first time that Gillies Osborne had a real chance to completely control the situation. The prime minister, what are your plans for the strategy after the empire?
"..." Olibate gave Heliga a look, and the latter was a heart-to-heart. In the discussion between the previous two, they made it clear to the fact that since Levi got a lot of dark empire history and inside information from the emperor. The news is tied to things like "curse," so the core of all of Osborne's plans is obviously there. As for the obvious hint of the "Black History Book" mentioned by the emperor, the two had already figured it out.
"If this answer is said, I am afraid you will find it a little unacceptable." Olibate considered his own words, and some uneasy eyes swept back and forth between Cassius and the queen. "According to the post-Civil War, From some of the classified information we have obtained... Prime Minister Osborne’s final plan, his ultimate ambition, is likely to be... launching a "world war." "
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar. Everyone was either surprised, vigilant, or whispered thoughtfully inwardly, assessing the reliability of this conclusion and the possible consequences. Among them, Queen Alicia had the fastest reaction. She took a sip of tea and asked slowly: "His Royal Highness, you are talking about "launching a world war," not "competing for the supremacy of the mainland," right? "
"Yes... As expected of you, I immediately grasped the point. I'm still worried about how to explain it." Olibat was relieved after hearing this-this one who has been in politics for fifty years. Political animals are much more sensitive and alert than others. She has guessed how many similar ambiguous hints and riddles. "That's right. The prime minister values ​​"war" rather than "results." And the reason for this upside-down situation is because...some existence hidden behind the empire's history is at work. "
"Like the "Ring of Radiance" to Libel? "Cassius also gradually slowed down, "It's "The Great Treasure"... Or is it a product of "The Great Treasure", in some way affecting the Prime Minister's decision? "
"Yes." Heliga nodded, "There is a lot of information that can point to this. The specific details can be from here." Heliga put an extremely concise document on the table, "You can understand from here. However, we just Guessed his intentions, as for how he is going to implement the specific plan, he needs to know more about it."
"Wait a minute, two." Lieutenant Colonel Sid, who was listening by the side, interrupted, "If I did not understand what you meant by mistake...it means that if Prime Minister Osborne has the ambition to dominate, it would be more With a safe and secure approach, he will also choose a more radical, dangerous, and uncertain approach...because this process is the result he wants?"
"It sounds hard to understand... War is a continuation of politics, but he rejected all options and went straight to war?" Mayor Maybel, as a person with traditional political science education, was quite puzzled by this statement, "Although I Knowing that the empire has always been warlike and good at war, but it is not a brash man who does not pay attention to strategy... What is he doing this way?"
"Since this kind of thinking violates basic political common sense, does it mean that the goal he wants to pursue is not explained by the political and economic interests that ordinary people understand?" Principal Collins stroking He stroked his long beard and said.
