Chapter 2194

"Elder!"

As soon as he saw Dongfang Tuo coming, qinglanxing, who was chatting and laughing on the parade platform, immediately stood at attention, clenched his right hand and bowed slightly to salute him.

The 500 elders of the Empire have a very high status. Even if they don't hold positions in the army or the government, they still have the dignity and power above all people, just because they are the Empire!

Dongfang Tuo's face was as deep as water. He nodded to the crowd and waved casually, indicating that everyone didn't have to be so nervous.

Qinglanxing is the logistics transit base of the imperial expeditionary army.

"Quartermaster logistics" is a key and oily field, which is naturally controlled by nobles and gatekeepers.

Therefore, all the military and political dignitaries who are qualified to stand on the parade platform today to welcome the victory of the army are from the families of the four general election emperors and their vassal forces, and they are "their own people".

Since we are "our own people", we can speak freely on many topics.

Different from the "long live the Empire" roared by the fanatical people in the surrounding streets, there was not much joy in the whispers of these military and political figures.

"It's another 'brilliant victory'. It's a new resource planet. Ha ha, it's a pity to hear that the holy alliance has implemented the strategy of 'Strengthening the wall and clearing the wild, scorching the earth to resist'. Before retreating, all the mines have been destroyed, and even the underground veins have been contaminated by very insidious methods. It's estimated that the pollution control work alone will take several years, and I don't know how much money will be spent, Where is this resource planet? It's a bottomless hole

"Yes, and the people left by the holy alliance are all brainwashed. They are very resistant to the Empire. Without a long period of enlightenment, they are afraid that they will not be able to become a good labor force of the Empire, but they will have to spend a lot of food to support them. Can't they all be killed? Kill all the people of the world just recovered? Who dares to make such a decision? It's really... Distressing! "

"The support of the people in the rear area has reached its limit. No matter how much" encouragement "is given, it can not stimulate greater potential. On the contrary, the accident rate is rising, and small-scale riots are also rising one after another. Most of the power of the empire is concentrated on the front line, and there is no way to suppress the riots in the rear area. As a result, the day before yesterday, in the military and British circles of the scorpion cluster, There was a terrible event that the practitioners destroyed the whole star battle castle. They even intruded into the spirit net and broadcast the whole process live. Shame, it's a great shame for the Empire. They were killed by a little practitioner... "

"A little monk can't make a big storm, but the inflation pressure we are facing now is too great, and has reached the critical point of collapse. If the war continues, the vicious devaluation of the imperial crystal currency will be inevitable. We have made a detailed deduction. If the war is going on at the current intensity for another year, it will still be the current supply of resources, By February next year at the latest, the imperial crystal currency will be devalued by at least 300%. By the end of next year, it is very likely to be devalued by ten times. The disastrous consequences will be more serious than the appearance of 10000 practitioners! "

"Therefore, the most important issue now is how to end this war with dignity!"

Dongfang Tuo's eyes narrowed slightly and his face was expressionless. He seemed indifferent to the comments around him, but he heard every word clearly.

He also knew that the comments and complaints of these blue star military and political dignitaries were to a large extent deliberately told to him, hoping that he would put forward a motion in the Senate as an imperial elder and end the war as soon as possible.

It's just

Dongfang Tuo sneers in his heart. Do these military and political dignitaries think that the Senate does not want to end the war with dignity as soon as possible? But how can the holy alliance, which has just been torn off by blood, easily give the Empire dignity?

"Those Qiuba on the front don't sympathize with the hard work of operating materials in the rear. They have only one muscle in their head and know how to fight, fight, fight! If we continue to act recklessly like this, our logistics system will completely collapse! "

"Yes, it's said that those who are stationed in the" sky, moon and star regions "are all connived by those world leaders. Those world leaders in the remote world of the Empire are all ambitious, selfish, shortsighted, insatiable, and never think about the overall situation!"

Dongfang Tuo sighed again.

As the president of the Empire Development Bank and the logistics leader of the expeditionary army who runs astronomical military funds, he is very clear about what people are talking about.

After swallowing dozens of worlds in one breath, the Empire has reached the limit of phased expansion. If it continues to expand blindly, it will become an infinitely expanding beast, and eventually be crushed by its own weight - like a whale stranded on the beach, exploding from the inside out.

Therefore, from the perspective of the overall interests of the Empire, whether "decent" or "unseemly", we must quickly end the imperial counterattack that has lasted for more than ten years.

However, the officers at the forefront who are eager to make contributions, especially the young and middle-aged grass-roots officers who are ambitious and enthusiastic and seriously brainwashed by the slogans of "invincible Empire" and "long live human civilization", do not think so.

They are eager to make contributions, to open up new territories, to remain famous in history, and to become brilliant heroes in the rise of human civilization!

In a space war that spans tens of thousands of worlds and lasts for tens of thousands of light years, it is extremely difficult for the rear to effectively control the deep space fleet that floats in the boundless sea of stars at the forefront.

Each deep space fleet has a super star ship with a length of more than 10 kilometers. It has a self circulating air and water purification system, and often stores synthetic food that can be supplied for more than 10 to 20 years. Although it smells bad, it can meet the basic energy needs.

With these things, each deep space fleet is a small self-sufficient entity. Even if it has no supplies, it can continue to fight for several years. The word "deep space" means to go deep into the starry sky and explore, fight and conquer independently.

Most of the time, what the deep space fleet has done on the front line can not be observed all the time in the rear. Even if it has, it can not be stopped.

More importantly, the deep space fleet is not directly controlled by the four royal families.

The empire is too huge. The vast sea of stars makes it extremely difficult to centralize power. Your majesty can not completely control the whole empire, nor can the four election families.

At the moment, only half of the hundreds of fleets stationed on the front line are directly under the four royal families, while the rest are from the relatively independent outside world of the Empire.

Although the "expeditionary base" has been set up to unify and coordinate all the fleets, the actual controllers of these fleets are the world masters of the peripheral world, and they are rebellious and insatiable warlords.

These warlords are always happy with the radical performance of their young and middle-aged officers.

After all, the warlords themselves can accumulate a little more achievements if they can lay down a more resource planet.

Moreover, before others arrive, they can plunder the newly recovered planet first - even if the Holy Alliance really implements the "scorched earth strategy", as long as they are willing to dig three feet, they can at least get some scrap metal.

For the warlord troops whose home is 18000 light-years away, they didn't even want to take control of these frontline resource planets for a long time at the beginning, but they are more unscrupulous and a gang of robbers with the idea of "fishing and leaving".

As for how to deal with these planets, which were first scorched by the holy alliance, and then raided by the Imperial Army, how to defend the constantly extended front, and how to increase the pressure of logistics supply... All these messy problems should be handed over to the "expeditionary army headquarters" and even the "imperial Senate", Anyway, they patted their ass and came back with a lot of war achievements and medals!

Thinking of this, Dongfang Tuo agrees with the comments of the military and political officials around him on those Qiuba at the front line - a group of bastards!

At this time, the impassioned March sounded, and the air and the earth were shaking more and more fiercely. The crowd in all directions, like a volcanic eruption, roared heartbroken: "long live the Empire! Long live the Empire! Long live your majesty! Long live human civilization! hooray! Long live

A triumphant army has emerged.

In the sky, there are strong attack ships floating on the ground like hundreds of cast-in-place clouds. On the ground, there are all crystal armor battle groups with top helmets whipping armor, marching towards the main road and parade platform with majestic drums.

"Conquer! Immortal cultivator! Conquer all evil spirits, evil spirits and evil spirits

"Rule! Real human! Rule this dark sea of stars, cold universe

"Warships skimming the rolling waves! The glory of the Empire will shine forever

"Glory, Empire! Glory, Imperial Army

The war songs of the real Empire, accompanied by the cheers of the people, resounded in all directions.
