July 4, 106, Holy Gu Calendar.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Golden Beetle Empire finally passed away suddenly. He left this world with his former secret, but he did not agree to the temptation proposed by an existence and walked very freely.

In the last breath, a decree was thrown to the successor who was kneeling in front of him like throwing toilet paper.

After he left, the fuse was lit and the spark moved quickly towards the explosive barrel.

The new king, the eldest son of the former emperor, succeeded Zheng Xin. However, his succession was not solid.

The old emperor's rule was not only because of the strong military power directly under the old emperor. Under the feudal rule system, the old emperor suppressed all parties and allowed all parties to stabilize their positions.

However, Zhengxin inherited the imperial rule and could not effectively suppress all factions.

First of all, he could not suppress his faction. After he came to power, the faction that originally supported him lost the suppression of the old emperor and wanted to fight against the outside world. Even if his faction did not do so, other factions were already preparing. (Similar, Cao's ministers forced Emperor Xian of Han to give way, and after Cao Pi ascended the throne, he had to grant a large amount of land to the people below.)

This new emperor must make great determination to integrate himself inside and outside in order to re-stabilize the imperial order.

But some people don't give them time.

First of all, after congratulating his elder brother on becoming emperor, he requested a title. - It means that I support you as emperor, and you need to support my political power to have a special status in the empire.

This former second prince had a fief in the south. He had dozens of weapons and Gu nests, and was an absolute powerful vassal.

The old emperor, who had already passed away, granted military power to his sons in this regard. The idea was probably that his sons occupied the world and no one else was qualified to rob them. However, this left a huge pit for the next heir.

Facing his younger brother's congratulations, how could Zhengxin not understand? He did not agree.

Because the second brother is obedient on the surface, but in fact he is a naked slander. Once the second brother's needs are met, the authority of the central imperial power will plummet. Anyone can say: "I obey you, but you have to give me a certain right to autonomy. If you don't agree, I will not support you."

Imperial power can be majestic by intimidating the princes. Once the imperial power needs to be supported by the princes to be stable, then it will be not far from being arbitrarily deposed by the princes.

In his reply, Zheng Xin first praised his younger brother's support for his elder brother, and then emphasized that the new imperial court needed to maintain justice and quietly rejected his unjust request.

The new emperor handled it in an unconventional manner and did not intensify conflicts.

However, the second brother seemed to have been in business for many years. When he saw his elder brother being ignorant, he directly put away his smile and closed his territory. At the same time, he kicked out the sheriffs under the imperial system one by one. He openly inserted his confidants into the local management position, with the intention of splitting the ground and competing with each other.

In the eyes of outsiders, the second prince was stubborn, so he was the first to jump out.

In fact, the second prince also wants to be free, but he also has his own difficulties.

The battle for the throne is a winner. After the new king ascended the throne, he was the most powerful faction except his elder brother. Now everything is in vain and seems to have become the biggest loser.

He must give an explanation to the people below. Prove that he still has great power in his territory when he is in the new king. If he does not prove this ability at this time, the hearts of the people in his forces will be turbulent, and there will be many things that sell the old owner to seek honor towards the new king. Then decades of business will disappear.

Just like, the top leader of the unit stepped down, the second leader was originally preparing to replace the bench, and a large number of people in the unit came to show off. At this time, a new leader was parachuted on it. If the originally popular second leader did not show his 'irreplaceable work ability', he would immediately become a cold and lonely person.

However, it was the second prince's urgent and stable action that caused reprimands from all over the world. This "people in the world" are actually nobles in the world, and they seem to be reprimanded, but in fact, they amplify the problem to His Majesty the Emperor.

The nobles said in their hearts: Your Majesty, you have to acquiesce, so we will do the same in the future.

With this kind of fuel, the conflict between the second prince and the new king reached an irreconcilable level.

The new emperor, who was firmly in the imperial capital, was furious when he received this news and immediately declared his brothers in the south to rebel and ordered the conquest.

The flames of war between the central imperial power and the local princes and kings finally ignited. Behind this is a series of gunpowder barrels.

On the plain hundreds of kilometers outside the imperial capital, in dozens of fortified concrete large buildings, huge chimneys began to thunder from here. This is the underground Gu nest at high speed, and the underground water cools out the thick fog on the surface.

After a few hours, dozens of tons of steel gates at the underground entrances of these fortresses were slowly pushed open, and the heat waves rushed towards them, making the Imperial Knights who opened the door retreat.

As the harsh metal gate opened, metal clanging sounds came from the tunnel. A large number of metal insects with a diameter of one or two meters rushed out of the cave and lined up in the square, forming rows of large squares with twinkling metallic luster, moving towards the direction of the imperial capital.

And the imperial capital is the melodious sound of the whistle of the train.

Outside the train station, as the flag-shaking shouts of the people of the imperial capital, the mighty and thick beetle-armored beasts stepped onto the train steel plate. The eight-ton body made it make the sound of heavy metal rubbing when it stepped onto the train.

In addition to these biological weapons, heavy artillery and batches of ammunition were also transported south along with the train, announcing the determination of the new emperor to the eyeliner of various forces in the imperial capital.

...

In addition to the letter of strife that announced the world, the central royal family made private letter contacts to aristocrats of all sizes. Of course, the strategy was relatively flexible.

The center is trying to win over and appease the powerful nobles - because the new king knows that he ordered them to send troops, and if they don’t want to send troops, they will find various excuses.

For the little nobles, they are directly coercive and tempted: if you go, you will be rewarded. If you don’t go, you will settle the accounts after the autumn.

And the Zhouyou belongs to the latter.

The Holy Gu Calendar November 5, 106.

The sheriff from Jujiaodu issued the official document to Zhouyou and ordered Zhouyou to lead his troops to go south quickly and follow the emperor to attack. His attitude was extremely arrogant.

This is a simple order. Zhouyou can accept it, but it can not accept it. Receiving the order is equivalent to standing on the side of the new emperor. If he does not accept his fate, once the emperor wins the war - in the emperor's opinion, if he cannot beat the Fiery Locust family, can't he beat you?

Put aside the emotional interference brought by the imperial capital, calmly analyze the impact and opportunities of this war on the Lanhun Group. Lanhun is in an island city, and when the war begins, the procurement of raw materials in various regions will be affected. Now the war has just begun, and this war is likely to affect the entire continent in the future. If there is no stable raw material control area and no prestige to stabilize the route, the island economy will inevitably be in trouble.

So now for Zhouyou, there are two options.

First, stand on the emperor's side and join the war to prove that you are not a weak person and expand your voice.

Second, he will not respond to the conscript, but in the future, he will have to deal with the harassment and plunder of other princes of the emperor's faction, and he must fight a battle to prove that he has neutral strength.

Two lines must be torn one more time.

...

On the northeast side of Xinfeng City, a 15,000-ton aircraft carrier slowly departed.

The ship's speed is 23 knots and can take off a drone with a weight of two tons. The drone's flight system is a worm, and the equipment it carries is a 12mm caliber machine gun.

The aircraft is so light, so this aircraft carrier is positioned as a reconnaissance aircraft carrier.

In fact, in the Mediterranean waters with a total area of ​​5.84 million square kilometers, this air maid is enough. It is not the Pacific Ocean, but it often searches for the location of the enemy fleet for thousands of kilometers.

In the Mediterranean region of the Earth, no country has ever seen to hold back the aircraft carriers. Even when World War II aircraft carriers were at its most glorious, the Mediterranean was also a battleship bombardment.

The most important reason for the elimination of battleships is not that they are not fighting far enough, but that they cannot maintain the right to control information on the sea. The Japanese pillar island battleships were in the dark in the Pacific Ocean. They were bombed by planes and did not know where the enemy was.

All the insects in this world are in low-speed state. A two-ton fighter can rely on the rotor engine to rush out of subsonic speed, which means there is no problem in the air speed. As for signal locking, there is no shore-based radar network in this world.

In the concept of sea control in the universe.

After the aircraft carrier obtains information, it will let another type of "fireship" launch a black and white imaging guided rocket - in short, this guidance concept is to pick up a big ship and explode it. Anyway, in this era, the big ship that does not belong to its own in the strike zone, and it will be a loss to bomb it.

Of course, so far, this aircraft carrier is also the most expensive equipment for the fuel wheel.

The axles and diesel-electric generators are specially produced by Zoom. There is even a specially modified Linlong mother nest inside, which greatly weakens other functions and strengthens the signal transmission function. This is right in the ship tower, which is used to guide the remote cruise of semi-biological drones.

Sitting on this ten thousand tons battleship, in the command room.

Zhouyou looked at clusters of white mist in the distance, like the hot energy tower of a small volcano on the sea. He let out a breath and slowly threw a coin upwards.

Two seconds later, Zhou You rubbed the front of the silver coins and said quietly: "Okay, then choose to join the emperor."

After making such a decision, Zhouyou returned to the city and began to arrange it.

First, I came to my high school, summoned a hundred disciples in the school to me, and took out the prepared electromagnetic secret keys. These secret keys correspond to the control of the core of each Gu nest.

However, as long as the secret key in your hand does not fall into the hands of outsiders, the control of the mother nest platform cannot be compromised.

Of course, the Zhouyou is not needed, and the matrix is ​​directly connected to the inside of the Gu Nest. This secret key is to allow people other than themselves to control their own system.

Zhou You distributed the secret keys of the Gu nests of each power station, the Gu nests of metal resources, and the secret keys of the Gu nests of war beasts to these students, and finally handed the secret keys of the Gu nest to Yu Qian. The lady of the Lie Locust family paused, then put the crystal with her hands and nodded violently to Zhou You. Her expression seemed to have received a proposal from a prince charming.

Well--

Zhou You handed over the chief secret key to this Yuqian, which means to ensure stability in the rear when he was fighting outside and let the feather-winged locust family not have other ideas. Of course, after Yuqian got this secret key, she would probably completely feel at ease to regard this place as a basic plate for her. At the same time, she should also deviate from the family's old thinking and stand on the basic plate of her own interests and think independently of her own.

Then Zhou You turned his gaze to the other side.

He took out another tray and said to Xinzhu and other students: "Next, you, this time, follow me to expedition. I want to teach you how my faction will fight."

Zhou You opened the cloth in the tray and distributed the crystals to them. Then he took a piece of red crystal himself and said, "This is the secret key of the war in this Gu Nest. You will participate in the war in depth."

...

After 10 hours.

Zhengxin woke up from sleep, put on armor, and covered the worm-like sections on his body. His Majesty the Emperor has never had a good sleep since he ascended the throne, and of course, his second brother is the same.

The knight next to him brought the document. The emperor asked casually, but in fact, without expectation: "The manifesto has been spread, what are the responses of each family?"

The Knight paused and said, "Your Majesty, most of you are waiting and watching now."

The emperor sent a call to various factions.

No local factions refused, and many even promised to respond to the call, but they all said that "it took some time."

It is obvious that this 'some time' statement is a delaying strategy.

The emperor took the letters and responded one by one, and opened them one by one, throwing them away. He became less and less interested in reading them. He was perfunctory and prepared to read the military reports on the front line.

The knight on the side said, "Your Majesty, one person said that he would arrive on the west coastline by the eighth next month and launch a landing attack on the rebels' rear."

His Majesty stopped and looked up and asked, "Who? Where?"

The knight took the documents from the emperor and found Zhou You's report. At the same time, the waiter on the side opened the map of the '博' coastline.

The emperor carefully looked at Zhouyou’s war report and the corresponding map coordinates.

In the report of the Zhouyou, it was accurately stated that the total number of troops sent at this stage and the time limit for the arrival of troops, and the Northern Fleet of the Empire was required to maintain the safety of the waterway and provide side assistance. This way, the burning wheel can increase the scale of troops dispatch and accelerate the arrival.

The emperor paused, thought of something, and pulled out the letter from the floating family to him from the pile of old papers. When he saw his traditional subordinates still "preparing for troops" in QQ, he couldn't help but laugh and said with a sneer: "Okay, very good."
To be continued...
