Thousands of sparks

Chapter 89 Sacrifice
As the saying goes, beating the young attracts the old.When confronting an organization or even a country with a very long history, one must always pay attention to whether the opponent still has back-ups.

But the current situation seems to be... different from the saying.Why did you hit a small one, and a smaller one came out to help?

Dusande and Aika's other staff members' knowledge of the Star Sea Federation is infinitely close to zero.He didn't even know the star pirates and smugglers of the Star Sea Federation like Dushan did.And the Heraldry Management Office has no interest in this force that has no contact with the empire.

Their attention and resources are focused on internal counter-espionage and usurpers, and external alliance infiltration.As a "country" that has no official contacts with the empire, and even private contacts rely on smuggling businessmen who don't know when they will come, the empire is not very interested now.

Aolin is the mother star of human beings, and every human being in the star sea comes from Aolin.A new human regime that appeared in the universe is nothing more than rebellious or rebellious descendants to the empire.

In his heart, Dusand raised his evaluation of this information from "not believing it at all" to "9 false and 1 true".

"Then, this information has proven value." Dusand pointed to the final timetable of the intelligence and said, "According to the information on this intelligence, the allies will mobilize three main fleets to attack Bomir in a week. This is an excellent opportunity to verify whether it is true or not—I will hand in this information." Du Sander paused and continued, "However, I need to get the original information, not the translation."

The Marquis of Lafayette thought for a moment, then nodded, "This is more secure, I will send someone to send the original copy tomorrow." He leaned forward and asked, "If the empire needs to establish a direct connection with the Star Sea Federation, we will Will be happy to give up the identity of the introducer."

After talking about intelligence, the Marquis of Lafayette began to talk about government affairs.

"The environmental protection measures for surface mineral mining must keep up." The Marquis of Lafayette seemed to relax a lot, and his posture when he spoke to Androni became more natural, "Tomorrow is the second reading of the bill. Unsurprisingly, MPs funded by the Mining Consortium will do whatever it takes to oppose the passage of the bill."

"We have an absolute advantage in the number of votes in favor. From a procedural point of view, this bill must be passed." Androni's statement is more cautious, "What I am worried about now is that the other party may use procedural loopholes to delay the agenda. "

"This bill is very important and must be passed with an overwhelming advantage." The Marquis of Lafayette resolutely said, "Our land cannot be allowed to continue to be destroyed!"

Du Sande couldn't help hearing this, he raised his hand and asked, "Dear Mr. Marquis, I have a question."

"Excuse me, my lord." Lafayette didn't take Dusand's question seriously, and he said happily, "I am very happy to see that young people like you are willing to participate in politics-you are willing to think positively. , this is the only way to guarantee the future of the empire."

"My question is very simple." Dusand said with a frown. "Do you or the Imperial Forestry Department have specific means and strategies to completely eliminate or dismember the mining complex in the near future?"

The mild atmosphere at the scene just now cooled down in an instant.

Lafayette asked in disbelief, "What did you just say?"

When the aristocrats were shocked or dissatisfied, they would deliberately change "you" to "you" to show that the two parties were not close.Lafayette's change of name was obviously due to the former reaction.

"I'm asking you a question." Dusand's expression also turned cold, "Within a year, the House of Commons of Newsale passed bills restricting United Mining's ability to mine satellites, requiring them to pay more than the original labor costs. The bill to increase the treatment of miners at six times the cost, and now the environmental protection bill has to be passed to further increase the mining cost of United Mining in Newsale." Dusand's question tone was a bit aggressive, "Three consecutive attacks on the mining industry within a year Commonwealth bills, and they were all introduced by the House of Commons of Newsale first, followed by other Houses of Commons of the Colonies."

The atmosphere in the flower hall is no longer as simple as "cold". Dusande can clearly feel that Mr. Marquis is angry, and his mother's mood is also slipping to anger.

But Dusand really can't care about these now, he must remind the people present to be aware of the danger.

"Three bills in a row, each of which is digging flesh out of the mining complex. The wounds run deep, and of course they're going to find ways to prevent themselves from being hurt more and to heal the wounds. That's the nature of every large organization. Move." Dusand emphasized the pronunciation of the word "natural", "As a behemoth with a history of hundreds of years, the mining complex is huge, which means that its counterattack will be very fierce."

"Mr. Marquis, we are constantly slashing a mighty behemoth that employs more than a million people and has its own ministers before His Majesty the Emperor. It has an armed force of more than seventy large warships The total number of the mine guard fleet and armed mine inspectors exceeds 100, and all its profits belong directly to His Majesty's internal treasury."

Speaking of this, Dusande was sweating all over his body. Although these data and intelligence were all public data, Dusande felt its weight more intuitively only after saying it himself.

"The Mining Federation is a colossus, and I even suspect that it has a stronger armed force than that of the Star Sea Federation." Dusand said, "The bill you and my mother made is enlarging this huge power, force and The monster made of mixed capital has been cut with deep and visible bone wounds. Now I want to get an affirmative answer from you - you and the Imperial Forestry Department that supports you have formulated a set of practical measures plans to completely dismember or destroy the mining complex in the near future.”

"We are constantly persecuting and hurting a monster. If you don't have the plan and means to kill it, it is obviously very unwise to act like this." Dusand leaned forward with his hands on the table and said, "If there is no You shouldn't provoke such a powerful enemy before you have the means to kill them with one blow."

Androni said something to him, but she suddenly fell silent.

Duchamp looked at his son with some dissatisfaction, he seemed to be too rude in front of Mr. Marquis.But Androni didn't speak, so Duchamp didn't bother to teach him a lesson.

At the same time, he was also a little worried about Androni's safety.

As Dusand said, the mining complex is a formidable behemoth.It is very dangerous to repeatedly provoke such an enemy without killing it.

As a soldier, Duchamp would not hesitate to fire on the alliance capital ship.But if he's on an unarmed civilian ship, and there's no guard fleet around to back it up... then he's not going to send the "fuck you" light signal to the alliance capital ship anyway.

This is not bravery, this is courting death.

The Marquis of Lafayette was silent for a while, and then he took a long breath and suddenly smiled, "I didn't expect that it would be you, Mr. Lord, who asked me this question first."

He turned to look at Androni and asked, "You arranged this?"

"No." Androni shook her head, "I have full confidence in you, Mr. Marquis, but I'm still very curious about this—what is your backer?"

"After the bill is proposed, all the forces of the Forestry Bureau in the entire empire will be mobilized." Lafayette Hou said, "Yes, my lord, the baron and the baroness, the final battle against the mining complex will officially start. Open the curtain."

"The mining complex is a huge maggot attached to the empire. We have already obtained the exact evidence-the funds handed over to His Majesty the emperor by the mining complex every year are far lower than the profits they actually get!" Lafayette Hou He said excitedly, "The profits they grab every year are as high as more than half of the total profits. Once His Majesty the Emperor knows about this situation, he will definitely stand on the same front with us - at least he will be biased towards us. "

"In order to turn the bias further into wariness and even anger towards the mining association, we must also make His Majesty the emperor realize that the mining association has become a huge threat, and there is even the possibility of threatening His Majesty himself." Rafa Marquis Yate said seriously, "This is why we need to continue to persecute the mining association. They must show enough aggressiveness to make His Majesty realize that this organization is too big and too difficult to control."

Hearing this, Dusand became anxious.

"You have entrusted everything to His Majesty the Emperor, and we need to risk the retaliation of the mining association." Dusande said eagerly, "Mr. Marquis, what means do you and the Ministry of Forestry have to prevent us from becoming your Majesty? What about the 'price'?"

"No." Hou Lafayette said very frankly, "but I can guarantee that if the mining association plans to attack Mrs. Androni and you, then I will die before you."

Androni nodded, and then said very calmly, "It is our duty to show loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor."

Looking at his mother with a calm expression, the Marquis with a holy expression of a martyr, and his father with a deadpan expression, Dusande suddenly felt a chill emanating from the depths of his soul.

For the first time, he deeply realized that this place...is really a different world completely different from the earth.

A world where His Majesty the Emperor is fanatically worshiped and respected, and some nobles can indeed sacrifice themselves for the benefit of His Majesty the Emperor.
