Chapter 525 Confidence
Southwest District.
Supreme Command Headquarters.
Many generals gathered together, including many who had previously supported the front line and participated in the battle of the Papal States.
Everyone, including Prince Jun, was trying their best to persuade their commander Qin Gang.
"Commander! This is a good opportunity. The royal faction has shown goodwill to us."
"Yes, the biochemical route is completely ruined. That old dog Yu Zhongxian is finally dead. From now on, no one will hinder us."
"The Empire's highest military has completely sided with the weapons faction and completely sealed off all biological and chemical weapons. We have won."
"The First Princess has already sent me three letters. Her Highness must be attracted to me! Commander-in-Chief, please help me!"
"Help your grandfather's egg, I am the first princess's ideal man!"
…
Qin Gang's face was gloomy and he said nothing. This attitude made many of his subordinates feel difficult to understand.
Yu Zhongxian's downfall was great news for the Qin Group. There was no longer any obstacle in their way, and they no longer had to confront the disgusting Council of Review.
The highest military department fully supports modern weaponization, and the anti-human biochemical route is directly banned by law to eliminate future troubles forever.
They even felt that such an empire could continue and it was fine not to be independent.
The Qin Group has always maintained a neutral and slightly favorable attitude towards Li Longxing. The Royal Faction is now powerful and has not forgotten to extend an olive branch to them, which makes everyone feel that their spring has come.
"Commander-in-Chief, His Majesty the Supreme Emperor truly remembers our kindness. The Imperial Faction's current status is due to our contributions and the troops we sent."
"I really think I have a good chance..."
"You fart, then I have a chance."
There is no doubt that this is very beneficial to the Qin Group. Not only will the Royal Faction not squeeze the power of the Qin Group, but it will be able to greatly make up for the Qin Group's weakness of lacking strong support in Shenjing.
But for some reason, the usually calm commander suddenly became furious the moment he received the telegram and tore it to pieces.
No one could understand. The only reason they could think of was that Changshan County was also a branch of the Imperial Faction, and Changshan County had a deep hatred with the Qin Group.
However, the commander-in-chief always puts the interests of the group as the top priority, and he did not even object to Cao Damang, whose army was completely annihilated and captured alive by Changshan County.
How could the commander only care about the hatred with Changshan County and ignore the interests of the group?
Everyone was about to persuade him again when suddenly a loud shout was heard.
“That’s enough!”
The commander-in-chief's office fell silent.
But this was not the commander-in-chief, but the chief of staff Wang Zijun.
He suddenly frowned and drove everyone out.
When they were alone in the room, Prince Jun asked in a low voice, "Commander-in-chief, is this related to the young lady?"
Qin Gang's face twitched, and a strong hatred was revealed in it.
Prince Jun was shocked. The commander usually did not show his emotions, so why was he so angry when Changshan County and the eldest lady were mentioned?
But Qin Gang was the commander of a powerful group after all, and he quickly withdrew his anger.
He sighed softly, "Zijun, I was just angry for a moment. The group is in a very bad financial situation right now. It's a good thing to be close to His Majesty. We can also take a breather."
Prince Jun was delighted. The commander was still the same commander. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the commander continue, "But I don't want to deal with this matter. I'll leave it to you."
Wang Zijun frowned slightly, sensing something was amiss. His exceptional intelligence allowed him to identify a possibility, and he softly asked, "Commander-in-Chief, is the young lady having an affair with that County Magistrate Lin of Changshan Commandery? But this isn't a bad thing. The young lady is your daughter after all. Changshan Commandery is poised for a resurgence, and if County Magistrate Lin becomes the group's son-in-law, our influence will be immense..."
Bang!
Suddenly, Qin Gang became furious and kicked over the table. Wang Zijun had never seen such a commander before. He was shocked and speechless for a moment.
But his rage only lasted a little over ten seconds before Qin Gang suppressed it deep in his heart. He said calmly, "Zijun, let's not talk about the Changshan Commandery matter for now. He's just a branch of the Imperial Faction. What we need to do now is to quickly take advantage of His Majesty's reforms and sell our overstocked products to restore the group's economy."
Prince Jun replied softly, "Yes."
He felt a little sad, but more happy.
The difficulty of developing nuclear weapons far exceeded their imagination. Even a great scientist like Mr. Li, who appears once in a thousand years, encountered many difficulties. It is worthy of being the ultimate weapon of mankind.
The group does need more economic support to support its development.
With hope for the future, Prince Jun left the commander-in-chief's office.
Only Qin Gang's eyes were still fixed on Mr. Li's latest scientific report. He felt something was amiss. Mr. Li seemed to fit the image of a scientist in their minds too well.
But are scientists really what we think they are?
This thought popped up in Qin Gang's mind.
——
Shenjing.
The top floor of the Emperor's Tower.
The main officials of the Imperial State Council gathered here.
Li Longxing is speaking at the table about his reform plan.
The First Princess stood behind him, delivering and organizing documents for her father. Under the brilliant light of the palace, she was in high spirits and looked extraordinary, but no one dared to look in her direction.
The emperor's power was fully demonstrated at this moment.
But Li Longxing knew very well that this was a special atmosphere created for him by the Great Elder. They could take it back at any time, end the empire's state of emergency, or choose to come back. The million elite troops were the foundation of this power.
Of course, this is also risky. Li Longxing is not a rootless duckweed. He can use this favorable wind to consolidate and expand his real power.
The reason why the elders were willing to take this risk was that the empire's economy had weakened to a certain extent, and because of the victory in the war and the hot sales of war bonds, the empire had a large amount of funds.
It can be said that the empire has reached a crossroads.
If we can make good use of them, the revival of the empire is not a dream.
If not used properly, everything will soon disappear like smoke.
Force is the foundation.
But the economy is the lifeline.
Modern society can no longer be maintained solely by plundering gold, silver and treasures like in ancient times. Everything must follow economic rules.
Even plundering is not that simple.
The most brilliant plundering can make the whole world work for you, while the lowest plundering is only enough to sustain one day's expenses.
The empire has broken through layers of obstacles and has reached this point.
Whether the empire can take off in one fell swoop and restore its former glory depends on him.
This is why the Great Elder initially allowed Li Longxing to lead the army in person and chose to hand over most of the power to him after the victory.
Li Longxing was also very clear that this was his last chance to revive this sinking empire in a bloodless way.
God bless the empire.
At this moment, Sheng Huaixuan, who was far away in Dongqinzhou, also shouted the same slogan.
Surrounding him are the backbone of Dongqinzhou.
Nuopes, Ling Huayue, Mei Xingan, Cheng Hexin, Ren Qingshan, Dong Qianwang.
There were also leaders of the resistance party such as Chang Shouren, Xu Jieying, Han Dong, Cheng Gang, and Liu Sisi.
Powerful forces gathered in Dongqinzhou, echoing the guards far away in Shenjing, and became the entire confidence for Li Longxing to implement reforms.
Today is a little short, but tomorrow will be long
