Him and their stars.

Chapter 1790: The Conspiracy of Progressivism

After this operation, the former Blue Star citizens who moved from New Atlantis to New Baghdad were shocked to find that the price of a pancake, which had originally risen from 5 yuan, had suddenly dropped to 5 cents.

The rectification of the economic order of the imperial army was not limited to the Blue Star Fruit Company. The water, electricity, gas and common transportation systems that were necessary for modern people's lives were also completely taken over by the imperial army. These elite imperial officers were certainly not experts in people's livelihood. They would just hand over the specific matters to professionals and just keep an eye on the price list.

Once the price exceeds the maximum set by His Highness, the executor will be dragged out and shot. Anyway, their cruel Dragon King's subordinates have many ways to deal with those who don't cooperate, from beheading to cannon execution to feeding to dragons.

After all, the Tirreros are a cruel warring race, and they have no time for humanitarianism. They insist on using a painless and dignified execution method on the death row prisoners.

In fact, the more brutal the means they used, the more people cheered. At that time, the soldiers of the Imperial Army even felt that they were not conquerors, but liberators of justice, and they all had a high sense of mission.

Their enthusiasm also infected the grassroots staff. The small officials and clerks in the common service departments found that they did not even have the choice to give up, so they could only perform their duties with tears in their eyes and trembling with fear. However, their work efficiency was visibly improved.

Well, as conquerors, the Empire didn't seem to worry at all that someone would not be able to bear the pressure and resign and run away.

Here we have to bring out the classic old saying. As the saying goes, "If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who are willing to do it." This is really a wise saying that will never be outdated in any era of the multiverse!
After this operation, the cost of living of the citizens of the community dropped at a visible speed. It dropped to a level lower than before the arrival of the Imperial Army. No, it was even cheaper than before the war.

You know, before the imperial army came, the price of goods changed every day; but after the imperial army came, the price became cheaper. From this point of view, the imperial master's visit was not in vain!
What's even more shocking is that even in the Empire's occupied areas, the Community Blue Star Coins can still circulate normally. There are even Imperial officers who take gold dragons to the bank to exchange for Blue Star banknotes. Can you believe it?

In this way, all the merchants from Xinya to New Baghdad began to look kind-hearted. They secretly put away the price increase signs that changed every hour, pinched their noses and smiled as they let the reviews return to the world, as if they were born to serve the people.

The same thing happened in New Baghdad and even in those settlements in the Olympus sector where the Imperial Army had not yet arrived.

In this way, many people belatedly realized that they were also human beings, and the conqueror was also human. Then, even if they returned to the period of imperial rule, it didn't seem particularly difficult to accept.

Up to this point, it had been less than a month since the young King Suliuka led his army into the community.

"Look, I said I'm here to end the war. Wars are started with swords, but they can't be ended with swords alone," she told her staff.

"So, you are going to apply your experience in governance during that period to this era?" Ostana said, "From what we can see now, the effect is good. All you have done is to stabilize the prices. However, it won't be long before they always ask for more."

"Haha, I'm not so simple-minded. The reason why such an effect occurs is simply because the community government did not adopt a wartime system. I forced the Earthlings' Olympus star zone to enter this stage, and they are thanking me instead." Brunhilde said. Although she was complacent, her mind was still clear.

Jia Feier sighed in disbelief: "In the face of a total war with us, they did not even activate the mobilization mechanism and wartime economy. I really don't know whether they are arrogant or slow."

"Both of these, and also a self-righteous stupidity that goes beyond the sky. Oh, how can we fight a good battle with such insects? This is really hard work." Brunhilde sneered, not hiding her blatant contempt.
So, who is working hard? Jia Feier glanced at the other person with a smile, and nodded solemnly. The upright and dignified knight lady has been the "Governor of the Kingdom of Circe" for almost two months. In addition to unlocking the commander's skill list, her biggest improvement is that her expression management is also evolving towards the direction of a sanctimonious big shot.

However, the smile on the chief of staff's face already had a hint of obvious mischief.

Brunhild pretended not to see it and said to her bestie, "Gilly, you can do the same thing in the occupied area of ​​​​Cherke. Circe is a monarchy, and there is a huge gap between the nobles and the common people. But because of this, the effect may be more obvious than in the community."

Have you forgotten that you are the elector of an imperial country? Giafiel looked very strange, but still answered: "I can only guarantee that the same policy will be implemented in the star regions around Katun."

"Don't force it. I'm not planning to run the alligator snapping turtle's territory as my homeland. As long as our supply lines are safe and stable, that's all." Brunhilde's smile was sweet, but the content of her words seemed particularly cruel: "I just want to see more samples in sociology."

Jiafeil shook his head slightly: "This is just your idea, Your Highness, but since we have decided to adopt a new governance model, I will try my best to be responsible for the people. Even if they are not even citizens of the empire."

The Upright Knights do not conduct social experiments, they only make real reforms.

Brunhild smiled: "Yes, that's what I want you to be like. Do what you want to do."

In fact, the supply line was already safe after Giafir Ramut defeated the "United National Salvation Army" of various Circassian warlords in the battle.

However, the Empire was not planning to occupy the entire territory of Circe, and the Privy Council had no such long-term plan. In the eyes of the Empire's leaders, the most advantageous situation would be to divide Circe into several countries that were hostile to each other or even attacked each other, so that the Alliance would not be able to find anyone to help.

Sowing the seeds of change in the Circassian Kingdom, which had been under monarchy for many years and was even more conservative than the Empire, was one of the necessary means to bring about this situation.

This is an open conspiracy, but who dares to say that this is not progress? The Circassians should thank everyone.

"So, should we just leave the star region occupied by Marshal Urodi alone?" Ostana said: "Marshal Urodi confiscated the royal property in the territory and took in all the primary elements and research groups in the kingdom. As well as a considerable number of progressive intellectuals."

"Progressive intellectual?" Brunhild glanced at the chief of staff.

"I think this title is very suitable for them and does not contain any ironic meaning." Ostana said: "As for Marshal Urodi's specific actions..."

"I guessed what he was going to do." Brunhild interrupted her chief of staff. After a moment's hesitation, she actually smiled with interest, even with a bit of bad taste: "Oh, interesting. As long as Marshal Urodi's fleet doesn't come to provoke us, let them do it. Okay, Gilly."

"I am not a warmonger." said Jiafeil, who won seven battles in ten days and defeated eighteen Circassian princes.

Again, the Empire does not want to operate Circe as a local territory. The more powerful factions that can be granted territories, the better. Of course, there is no shortage of a Circe Republic guided by the original. In other words, whether from the perspective of social experiment, realistic strategy or progressivism, Brunhild is eager for such a country to appear quickly. However, the attitude of the Galactic Empire towards the territory of the community occupied by itself is completely different. They really want to complete the second conquest and establish a long-term social governance. And this task naturally fell on Brunhild's hands.

She is more than just a military commander. As a contender for the throne, this is her mission.

After all, killing more than 200 illegal high-ranking officials and chaebol heads is only the first step.

Later, at Brunhild's instruction, Ostana Barr sent invitations to the leaders of the "Brotherhood of Steel" who had been hiding in the suburbs of New Atlantis, hoping that they could return to Lonely Night to discuss the operation of state affairs.

In order to show sincerity, the Imperial Military Control Commission of course lifted the wanted warrants for all members of the Brotherhood of Steel.

This organization was the remnant of the workers who had revolted in Lonely Night City. They had been active in New Atlantis for a year and were growing stronger, but they were still active only in the suburbs.

Members of parliament on Earth have always said that this organization is made up of evil terrorists, and that they must have an inseparable PY relationship with the Pioneer Party. Their words are almost like saying that the Pioneer Party is also a terrorist organization.

Of course, after all, this is in the Earth’s Congress, and attacks of this magnitude can only be considered foreplay, and they happen almost every day.

As for the "Brotherhood of Steel" itself, it was actually of no concern to the bigwigs on Earth. After the war began, this "terrorist organization" fell silent.

Now, King Suliuka has come, and the blue sky has been restored. King Suliuka has come, and New Atlantis is peaceful. King Suliuka has come, and the terrorists wanted by the original star district government have suddenly become legal.

Unfortunately, not everything unfolds as she wishes.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Ostana told her lord that her good intentions had been betrayed.

"The Brotherhood of Steel is unwilling to accept your invitation. Their leader, the young gentleman named Marius, spoke rudely and said that from today on, they will do their best to fight against us evil invaders." said the chief of staff.

"Did you skip some of the swear words?" King Suliuka laughed.

The chief of staff smiled and said, "That's not the case. He is a very educated and spirited young man, smart and elegant but also very determined, capable of both literature and martial arts, and very handsome. If he is really willing to serve in the Military Control Commission, I will definitely make use of him."

Brunhildt simply said "Oh" and then asked, "Do all the people in the Brotherhood of Steel think so?"

Ostana's smile remained unchanged: "The subordinates of the Black Tree Agency are handling it."

"Very good. After the necessary cleaning is done, Viscount Melindorff, who is coming from China, will take over as the military governor of Olympus. I will wait in New Baghdad for a while, and I think it will be long enough for you to come and help me."

To be honest, Brunhilde really felt that her life was not satisfactory without a young lady chief of staff to compete with.

From being the head of the Military Control Commission, who held both military and political power, to being a senior staff member again, according to normal political logic, this was a clear sign that the master was suspicious of his subordinates. However, Ostana had no such idea at all. This was a tacit understanding between the Holy Tree Palace girlfriends.

The chief of staff naturally accepted the order, but after the meeting ended, she still said: "However, I still have to remind you that your current policy will definitely shock those people on Earth... Hehe, those people with a certain influence. Even the bigwigs of the Communist Prosperity Party will have doubts about your behavior now."

"I know, but it doesn't matter. The opinions of those so-called influential people you mentioned are not important at any time. They are suspicious because I stayed in New Baghdad for two weeks. If I start to move towards Earth, they will immediately show their loyalty and dedication, and even kneel on the bones of their 'relatives' and kowtow to the dragon flag. Ostana, I know who is important, and it's not them."

Because I have truly ruled over all nations, no one knows what ruling is better than me. Although she did not say this, she decided all this with an unquestionable attitude.

Is it always the people who are important? The Chief of Staff thought of her master's words and nodded in understanding.

Brunhilde leered at the other party: "But, Ostana, is this your doubt or the Privy Council's?"

"The Privy Council does have some complaints about the policies you are implementing. In addition, your decision to stay in New Baghdad without doing anything will indeed confuse some adults who are not familiar with the front line. Of course, the difference between us and the Community is that the noise in the rear cannot affect the decision-making of the front line most of the time. However, whether this is the advantage of the system or the advantage of identity, Your Highness, this is worth discussing."

After leaving these words, which were not sure whether they could be regarded as advice, Ostana waved her hand and logged off.

Although the leaders of the uprising workers in Lonely Night City were unwilling to kneel before the dragon flag of the Empire, and although there were some small noises in the direction of the Sky Realm, overall, the Empire's strategic situation on Earth was indeed very bright. It was not just a little good, but a very good situation.

Just as Miss Ostana Barr arrived in New Baghdad, the Angel of Dawn received the good news that Gibraltar had been captured and the main force of the Outer Fleet had fled.

The Blue Star Community, which had two colonies and thirteen star regions, was thus divided by the Imperial Army into parts that were completely unable to support each other. All their mobile forces could no longer provide any effective protection for the four major star regions on the mainland, which accounted for the majority of the population, wealth and resources.

"The Outer Fleet did not come towards us, but retreated towards the open sea. This is a smart choice." Brunhildt said with a smile.

As for Marshal Farrell's fleet, it certainly did not pursue them relentlessly. In addition to the Vulcan Airan and a few relatively bulky large warships stationed at the South Heaven Gate, his fleet began to split up and attack important transportation nodes in the outer ring star region.

Brunhild certainly would have no objection to this.

"There are no free trade starports or dominions around the Grand Seas that can provide supplies for a fleet of this size. Therefore, they can only have one place to go." She slid her finger across the star map and finally landed on the territory of the Turank Coordinating Ministerate in the Grand Seas region.
