"Mi Lei, go handle these pieces of news."
Lloyd came over with a stack of documents, raised his feet and took out a small half of the documents, handing them to his fiancée.
Looking at the densely packed documents on her desk, Mi Lei felt her scalp numb.
But that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that now the Brittanian Empire seems to be going to war with the Federation.
"I think we need to talk!"
Mireille asked Lloyd to put the document in his hand on the chair, and then pulled him to an unoccupied corner.
"Is it really okay for us to continue here?"
she asked.庺
"What's not allowed?"
Lloyd was a little strange.
"There is going to be a war between the Brittanian Empire and the Federation, and as Brittanians, won't we be regarded as enemy agents?"
Mi Lei expressed her worries.
It wouldn't matter if they were ordinary people, but one of them is a pure heir to the Britannian nobility, and the other is even a nobleman with the rank of special commissioner and earl.
Although it cannot be said that it is the top class of the empire, it is definitely no problem for the middle and upper class. The current situation is a bit tense. Maybe one day they will be shot as enemy agents, but it is also possible. .
"You are a bit unfounded. How can any enemy agent honestly reveal his identity?"
Lloyd scratched his head.
"So, you're hiding your identity?"
Mi Lei asked.
"No, after I learned that the situation was tense, I immediately reported my true identity to the superiors."
Lloyd answered.
"What?"
Mi Lei looked at her fiancé with confusion.庺
"Well, don't be so nervous. In the propaganda work these days, I think you should also know that the forces we are working for now are not too strict. They are very reasonable, so , rather than being suspected later if there is a problem with my identity, it would be better for me to report my original identity myself to avoid being regarded as a spy."
Lloyd said somewhat indifferently.
"..."
Mi Lei wanted to say something, but found that she had nothing to say.
The propaganda department where she now works has always promoted Guang Weizheng's ideas.
She had only been working for nearly two months and didn't know if there was any ulterior motives behind her, but at least not during the time she saw and heard.
What she was worried about might be regarded as an enemy agent. The main concern was that she might be implicated after Lloyd's identity was exposed.庺
But now that Lloyd has revealed his identity, it's okay. She is just the heir of a declining Breton noble family. What can she worry about?
"No, even if we are not identified as enemy agents, aren't you worried that if the Federation loses the battle, we might be regarded as surrendering to the enemy?"
Mi Lei raised another point of concern. Her family has been contacting her recently, but they want her to go home, fearing that she will be affected by a possible war.
"Being regarded as a traitor to the enemy? It's not impossible."
Lloyd touched his chin, thought about the style of some pure-blood agents in the Brittanian Empire, and nodded in agreement with his fiancée's words.
"However, this must be based on the premise that the Empire and EU can defeat the Federation!"
He laughed again and added.庺
"Now that the army is surrounding the country, is it possible that the Federation can still fight one against two?"
Mi Lei was puzzled by her fiancé's relaxed appearance.
"I don't know what it means to fight one against two. I only know that if the giant mecha standing in the square in front of the Forbidden City is activated, all the existing methods in the world will be unable to do anything about it."
Regarding the oversized mecha named Moral Heavenly Lord, Lloyd did not doubt its authenticity the first time he saw it.
"You know, after consent, I conducted a series of experiments on it, including physical impact experiments and strong ion cannon bombardment experiments, but the results all proved that the mecha's defensive power Extraordinary..."
Lloyd talked about the research information these days with some excitement. There were a lot of professional terms about mechas that she didn't understand, but it didn't matter. One thing Mireille understood was that Lloyd didn't think Brittania With the EU, it is possible to defeat the Federation that owns that super large mecha (Moral God).
"Are you sure the EU and the Empire can't win?"
"You can't win 100% of the time. After all, you don't even have the means to break your defenses. Why are you fighting with your head?"
Seeing Lloyd's confident expression, Mi Lei also felt relieved.
[Hey, wait! 】
"But we are Brittanians. Is it okay to think that our country is doomed?"
Mi Lei asked.
"Well……"
Lloyd was a little confused by the question. He had been working in the Federation for a long time and his position was a little skewed. However, there was nothing that could be done about it. Who allowed the Federation to have such a fascinating thing - the Moral God.庺
"Hey, Mi Lei, you said it would be great if there were no wars in this world. In that case, I can concentrate on studying mechas!"
Lloyd sighed sincerely.
"If there had been no war, mechas as war weapons would probably not have appeared."
Mi Lei complained.
"I feel like I'm really going to be a spy."
Lloyd said.
"Eh?!"
Mi Lei looked at him in shock.
"Science knows no borders, but scientists do. If the Federation wins the war, but still plans to push back against the Brittanian Empire, I must pass on the research data on that super-large mecha. It's best We also need to work out a way to break the defense, Mi Lei, can you help me?"
Lloyd asked.
"Um."
The sense of national honor suddenly came over, and Mireille nodded subconsciously. Although Brittania was currently being aggressive, the two people within the Federation were already badmouthing their own country, and were thinking about it after the situation was reversed. How to pass on the information about Moral Heavenly Lord's super-large mecha.
However, thinking about it, the Propaganda Department still had to do its work, but this time it was not propaganda within the Federation, but distributed propaganda within the Brittanian Empire and the EU United Nations.
. . . .庺
Two days later, inside the EU United Nations.
"In the current situation, what do you think the countermeasures bureau should do?"
The co-speaker and several other major powers members looked at the man in military uniform in front of them.
They thought that the person who died from the headshot was asked to be released by the federal government in the name of justice.
And now the federal government not only fails to deny that they did not do this, but also agrees to admit that they did a large number of headshot cases.
But it is a clear statement that those who were killed by headshots are those who deserved their crimes. Now they are publicizing this matter in the EU, the United Nations and other large countries, truly inciting the people in the name of justice. Their emotions suddenly made their EU, which had been actively cooperating with the Brittanian Empire to launch an attack, very passive.
"Sorry, our Countermeasure Bureau did not expect that the Federation would admit it so decisively and approach it from this angle, intending to confuse the domestic situation."
But when we discovered it, we had already begun to counterattack. However, the major news media that promoted these news, regardless of small companies, big companies all have backend protection umbrellas. "
As the man in military uniform spoke, he looked helplessly at the speaker and some of the MPs present.
Obviously, these people themselves or the forces behind them have the backend and protective umbrella of those media companies.
"Our country is democratic and we cannot stop the people from speaking freely!
"
Senator Bothe coughed. His family runs the largest daily news company in the EU and the United Nations.
There is a saying that goes well, when the profit of capital reaches 300%, the capitalist can sell the rope to strangle himself.
The situation in EU is almost like this, although people are killed every day by being shot in the head by mysterious forces because of their poor personal ethics.庺
However, the remaining people think that their personal ethics are okay, and they may not die anyway. They first follow the hyped topic of justice or not, and make money by publicizing news and public opinion that the public likes to hear, so that they become what they are today. The federation drags on handing over the headshot murderer, but it's not a big deal.
[Running on horseback, a group of short-sighted pig teammates! 】
If it weren't for the fact that there were some news forces behind the Speaker, they would have to curse directly.
"I think Senator Bothe is right, freedom of speech is something we cannot oppose, and it is not the EU that should be anxious now, but Brittany.
After all, it is Britannia who is eager to ask the Federation for the headshot of the murderer, and they are the one who leads the way. The most we EU can do is cheer.
Why don't we let this matter go for a while and see what the reaction is from Britannia. What do you think, MPs? "
"Speaker Gross is right. The one who wants to find the headshot murderer the most is Britannia. If they want to move, they will move first. And if they don't move, we can't be the ones who take the lead. .庺
Although the matter of killing people by headshot regardless of distance, I think the authenticity is open to question, but what if it is true, are your heads harder than those of people who have died by headshot? "
Then a congressman made a speech that made everyone nod. The EU is a group united by many countries, and people here have selfish motives.
Although they agreed to synchronize the alliance with the Brittanian Empire on the headshot incident, and also sent the United Nations army to press on the border of the Federation to put pressure on the Federation, but do you want them to do their best?
Don't be ridiculous, that's not realistic at all.
Not only did the EU choose to mess up, but even the Brittanian Empire had some people who made overt and treacherous choices.
The people who want the federation to hand over the headshot murderer are VV and his father, but now his father doesn't know where he is hiding, and VV seems to be immortal...
Good guy, an immortal who is hiding somewhere doesn’t dare to stand up and speak out, but you want a mortal prince to come out and challenge you?庺
Schneizel thought to himself that he was not an idiot. Of course, it was impossible to take the risk of having his head shot off when the war started. However, he directly refused VV’s entrustment of the marshal of his own group army. appointment.
And someone who had similar thoughts to him was Princess Cornelia, the deputy governor of District 11. While several other numbered districts were suppressing public opinion on whether the person whose head was shot should deserve it and whether the person whose head was shot was fair, she was secretly Ditohat was secretly given the opportunity to allow this kind of publicity to be carried out.
Obviously, Cornelia also has an extremely pessimistic attitude towards this upcoming war. Failure may not be possible, but victory?
Sorry, she can't see this possibility. The federation's decapitation ability is too strong. Even if the group army can win, but their top leaders have been killed, what else is there to say?
The final result is nothing more than a lose-lose situation for both sides. The Federation will lose middle- and lower-class forces, while the Brittanian Empire may lose a large number of middle- and upper-class forces.
And after the two princes and princesses who were able to hold important positions made excuses to shirk the highest command authority of the group army, the relatively mediocre eldest prince and the eldest princess with a bad personality were pushed to the front desk, not because they wanted to let them do anything. What, the main thing is to give away people’s heads.
Wasn't the Federation secretly publicizing the justice of the headshot incident? So now they are pushing two influential people to come forward and aggressively ask the Federation about the handling of ***.庺
"If the Federation can't help it and blows the heads of the eldest brother and sister, then the Brittanian Empire can justifiably launch a massive attack."
"That's like
What if you can hold it back? "
"If you hold back, they are unreasonable in dealing with the power. Even if everyone thinks that those whose heads were shot deserve to die, they have to admit that we have the highest authority to deal with criminals. , there is no doubt about this.”
"Wait a minute, Second Emperor Brother, you don't want to shoot someone's head artificially, do you?"
Arriving in District 11, the princes and princesses, both of the second generation, met. After some discussion, Cornelia looked at her second prince brother with some suspicion.
"How is it possible? Am I like this kind of person?"
Schneizel argued loudly, but Cornelia remained silent and nodded, so he could only sigh.庺
"Okay, if it was an ordinary situation, I would design it like this, but now is not an ordinary situation. If I design the headshots of the eldest brother and eldest emperor like this, I may be defined as the criminal target who needs to be headshot. I don’t want to trade with the eldest emperor brother and eldest emperor sister for two..."
"So, I will only serve as a counselor secretly to help the Imperial Brother and Imperial Sister to gain a complete victory in public opinion, so that the Federation must give an answer."
"What are you going to do?"
"Let Brother Huang and the others agree that the person whose head was shot is guilty, and then start from the perspective of dealing with the rights of the criminal.
First, force out the murderer who has the ability to shoot headshots regardless of distance, or let the federation take a refusal attitude and intensify the conflict.
At that time, the issue will be pushed to the top, and our father or the current ruler VV will make some decisions and judgments about it.
What we need to consider is whether, after the top people are beheaded, we can stabilize the army and prevent them from killing the middle and lower classes of the federation, so that the war ends with the death of the top people.庺
Schneizel put down the chess piece in his hand. On the chess board in front of him, his white flag had already won a great victory.
"At that time, in the name of preventing the war from happening, I will ascend to the highest and most sacred position in the Brittanian Empire."
There are 25 boys everywhere, but Schneizel is still the first person in Britannia to directly investigate his father's whereabouts before his disappearance and secretly send information on where the father may be hiding to the Federation.
