The discussion in the conference room gradually subsided. The head of state asked a very serious question. Everyone knew that Bashan's strength had no chance of winning against the Hope Alliance. The gap between the two sides was really too big.
One is a huge alliance that can control the entire planet, and the other is a base that has to carefully manage even basic supplies. There is no comparison between the two.
I think what we need to consider now is not how to deal with the Alliance of Hope, but the issue of the Bashan Second Government. The Ascended Association has passed. According to the style of that god, the Ascended Association will definitely be copied into the Bashan Second Government. We But it is not the only management organization in Bashan. The head of state reminded solemnly.
The people in the conference room looked at each other. Every question the head of state spoke about was on key points. The Ascender Association has long had the ambition to establish its own strength group, but it has never been able to realize it without the foundation of people's livelihood. Now there are How could they let go of such a ready-made strength system?
As an ascender, how could a person at the top of the human race be willing to succumb to an ordinary person? What does loyalty mean in the face of great temptation?
Besides, the establishment of the second government is not about betraying Bashan. After the establishment of the second government, it will still be Bashan's highest governing body, and the people it serves will still be the people of Bashan. There is no question of whether it is betrayal or not.
Moreover, the influence of the second government supported by the strength of the Hope Alliance will soon overwhelm our own side. The fall of the airport has laid the foundation for the rapid development of the second government. They don't need the inherent land in Bashan at all. What's the point of asking for land that they don't have even with the wilderness behind them? Moreover, the reason why the Hope Alliance wants Bashan to join the alliance is not to smoothly develop the resources of Bashan Continent? I believe that not long after, vigorous development will begin in the border towns. By then, there will be a huge gap in living standards, and what will be done to retain those people when the mainland government is seriously short of supplies? The Great Migration is bound to happen, and the mainland government will soon be sidelined.
So it really doesn't make much sense to consider resistance now, because the general trend has been completely lost. But what can be done? Even if you agree to join now, they no longer need it.
What did our persistence gain in the end? The head of state asked again. No one knew what his purpose was at this time. Ridicule? Or mocking? Are you mocking everyone for committing suicide? Has even the most basic power dissipated in the end?
However, no one in this huge conference room could offer a rebuttal. Now the situation is getting worse, not to mention whether it has the ability to compete with the Hope Alliance. Even if I force the army to go to the border town to fight, it is already a question whether the military will obey the order.
In the developed era, the reason why the government was able to control the army was because the government controlled the materials and soldiers of the army. What about now? The people with the greatest authority in the mainland government are not people like myself, but the generals who command Bashan's army.
However, from the general's point of view, what he wants to protect is the people of Bashan, not a group of people in high positions, because these people can no longer provide any help to the army. If the second government is established, then the allegiance of the army will be to the people of Bashan. Will the general lead the army to die regardless of the people's livelihood at this time?
The result is very certain, the general will never do that, he will never act as a fuse that triggers a war. Out of overall interests and people's livelihood considerations, he is very likely to choose to follow the second government, because it is in line with the interests of many parties and can quickly return the people to a stable and happy life.
In other words, everyone gathered here for the meeting may already be a polished commander in name only. The people are complaining and the powerful forces are constantly defecting. How much control do they still have now? Who can you control?
Everyone, the current situation is obvious. We have reached the end. We can't control anyone. Even the people have lost trust in us. Shouldn't you consider other plans? The head of state stood up and asked, probably to match the atmosphere, his expression seemed very lonely.
What other options are there? Let us be subjects of the Island of Hope? Even if I am disarmed and return to the field, I will not go. One official immediately objected.
The head of state glanced at everyone helplessly and said quietly: Is the so-called dignity more important than reality? Can't we face reality now that the incident has developed to this point? Is our persistence still meaningful? Our supreme executive government will soon turn into a nursing home. In the future, the new government should give us a welfare policy that will allow us to spend our old age peacefully.
I agree to join. A man suddenly stood up.
you? Wang Lianyi? Don’t you even have this bit of perseverance? Someone immediately condemned.
The head of state looked at this man, with a hint of bitterness on his face and said slowly: There is no need for you to keep him lying in the water. In fact, his son has reached an agreement with the Hope Alliance, and the Hope Alliance has promised to provide him with supplies.
What? Wang Lianyi? You villain? Fortunately, we have always regarded you as a comrade, but you actually betrayed us and betrayed our beliefs. Several people immediately stood up and loudly condemned.
Wang Lianyi stood up helplessly and faced everyone. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've always wanted to stick it out with you all, but now it's come to this point. My son Wang Chong has secretly reached an agreement with the Alliance of Hope, and he also reached an agreement directly with the god-man, and there is no possibility of going back on it. You also know that we have no right to object to the choice of the next generation. As the saying goes, when there is talent available in the country, a new generation replaces the old. It’s not that I want to give up my faith, but I no longer have the capital. No one in my power system supports me anymore. If I stay here, I will just join you in shouting slogans.
My decision was forced. I cannot break away from my family. All my relatives have decided to join the Alliance of Hope. Even at my age, I cannot break away from my family. Since retirement is inevitable sooner or later, and since this place will become a nursing home sooner or later, my best choice is to let my son become the director of my nursing home.
You also understand that our governing philosophy is different from that of the next generation. What we insist on is independent development and becoming the supreme leader of mankind. Not to mention that this has become a dream now. Let’s talk about my current situation. In fact, I am already in a state of being ignored by everyone, but I am more serious than you. At least your family power system is still there, but I have lost everything. My faith and persistence can no longer be fulfilled. Being an idler is my only choice. I can’t say that after working hard all my life, I will lose even my family in the end. Already?
All I can say here is that my son is better than me. At least he can quietly ignore me. Regardless of whether I agree with what he did, one thing I must admit is that he is capable. We lost together on national issues, and I also lost in the family. Since we have completely lost, let's admit it.
It’s not necessarily wrong to think about the next generation’s ideas. I’m sorry, I can’t and don’t have the capital to be with you. From now on, I’m just an ordinary old man with nothing to do. I really hope you can achieve a good result, but I'm no longer qualified.
Goodbye, everyone, Führer. After Wang Lianyi finished speaking, he staggered towards the outside of the venue. The back looks very rickety.
