Tales of Soldier

Chapter 280: Conspiracy profiteer

Views:

Seeing this scene, the radio waves immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and shouted one after another: "Brother, you are amazing. You have evolved to behave like a human being, and you have become a major. I am afraid that you are the only one like us in the universe. Can become an officer's brother in the army."

The major officer opened his mouth and was about to say something, but a few human captains suddenly rushed over and pushed the major to the ground. This scene made all the electric waves scream again. They thought that their brother was stupid. Tore off his face in front of him, no, it was discovered by humans, and what was waiting for him was definitely destroyed.

Thinking of this, the radio waves couldn't help feeling sad for a while, they didn't have the courage to command the battleship to rescue their brothers yet.

However, it was obviously beyond the expectations of these radio waves. After the human captains held down their brothers, they did not dismantle them. Instead, they stroked the metal skull of the major brother enviously. After hearing their conversation, all Electric wave only felt that he was going to crash.

"Wow! Sir, when did you change your body? This color is so beautiful, it must be expensive?" A captain salivated and stroked the major's head.

A captain looked the major up and down and said: "Super alloy metal, strength 134, special military metal, the price offered in the black market is 100 yuan per gram of Tang coins, unfortunately there is no source of supply, and the weight of the officer is 200 kilograms , the material cost alone requires 20 million Tang coins, and the monthly salary of the officer is only 5,000 Tang coins, which cannot be bought with money. Then, sir, did you dig a metal mine from somewhere before you exchanged it for yourself? body?"

"Tell me about the metal mine! Otherwise... Hehe, be careful that we send your ugly face to Major Tang Li." The last captain said treacherously, which made the other two captains repeat it in unison.

The major lost his face, so he couldn't see his expression, but he could tell he was helpless just by hearing his voice: "Please, can this rare metal be dug casually? I damaged more than half of my body during the last mission. The reward was changed for me, and I am still in the physical adjustment period, otherwise, do you think that a combat hero like me will come to be the captain of the transport team?"

"Damn! Tell me earlier, it's a waste of my expression." The three captains raised their middle fingers at the same time, but soon the three of them helped the major up, and patted the major's clothes attentively, and at the same time said fawningly: " Commander, big brother, next time you transfer back to the combat force, you should transfer us back too? Why don’t you, a major, command hundreds of warships? It’s definitely okay to transfer us back to be captains, small captains, etc. I'm tired of being in the transport team."

"Huh? Who told you to tell Major Tang Li about my scandal just now?" The major put on his military cap and said deliberately ignoring their words.

"What! Who dares to say that? Stand up for me! How dare you destroy the relationship between our chief and Major Tang Li? Don't let us know, otherwise we must teach them a lesson and let them understand that destroying the relationship between lovers What kind of punishment will you suffer!" The three captains shouted in unison, turning their heads and looking around.

"Okay, stop making trouble, and introduce yourself to the brothers in the dictatorship alliance." The major said this, raised his head and saluted: "This officer is the captain of the seventh transportation team of the Datang Army, Major Tang Bing."

And the three captains also introduced themselves, all of whom were surnamed Tang. There was no way, when these self-aware robots named themselves, most of them were surnamed Tang. As for the names, there were all kinds of strange things.

Of course, duplication of names is unavoidable. After all, there are too many people, and all conceivable names are used. Tang's surname immediately became the most common surname in the universe, and because of this, people in the whole universe would not immediately think of Tang Long's family when they heard someone surnamed Tang, a very remote surname.

The Radio Waves, who had been in a daze for a while, finally came to their senses when the major introduced himself, but he still asked hesitantly, "Well, brother, are those three captains our brothers too?"

"Of course, all the officers and soldiers in our convoy are robots." The major nodded.

"All of them? Not a single human being?" The waves asked again in surprise.

"No," said the major firmly.

"Then, then how do you carry out the task?" The waves said hesitantly, they couldn't imagine how the robots of Datang carried out the task without the existence of the commander.

"Of course it's according to the order, otherwise what do you think?" The major said suspiciously, he didn't understand why the radio waves would ask such a question.

"Can't you act without a commander?" A radio wave with a relatively high evolution said.

I am also a major who came from confusion, and I immediately understood why they asked such a question, and couldn't help laughing: "We usually follow the army's habits, and the higher rank orders the lower rank. Of course, we also have the highest order. Then It is our master—His Majesty Tang Long."

The radio wave with relatively high evolution grasped the meaning of the major at the first time, and couldn't help saying in a trembling voice: "You... You mean, your master, His Majesty Tang Long, knows your existence?"

Hearing this, all the radio waves trembled for a while. If the master of the Datang Brothers knew about their existence, it meant that His Majesty Tang Long had no special opinion on their existence, but treated them normally. Otherwise, he would not Let these Tang brothers become officers and perform tasks alone.

Could it be that his own existence can finally appear in the eyes of the world? They couldn't help but eager to get an answer from the major, but they were afraid of getting an answer that would frustrate them. Just such a momentary experience of anxiety caused many radio waves to rise one or two levels at once.

"Of course, otherwise, how could we have become great and glorious officers of the Tang Dynasty?" The major wiped his military rank a little proudly.

Although Datang's intelligent robots are no longer engaged in a single military profession, and many high-level intelligent robots have switched to research work, intelligent robots still have different deep feelings for soldiers, a profession that was set at birth. Senior military officers It is often the most respected among intelligent robots. Several intelligent robots with the rank of brigadier general have already held back their energy to compete for the first major general rank among intelligent robots.

"Ah!" After getting the answer he longed for, all the radio waves were excited, and two of them suddenly broke through the realm and became intelligent robots.

"Quick! Tell us quickly, how Datang thinks of us!" Several intelligent robots immediately said eagerly.

"What do you think? Of course they treat us as partners. Don't be surprised. It's true. Many brothers in the Tang army have experienced being covered by humans. These humans who cover us have already regarded us as comrades in arms. They didn't take into account that as long as our brains were not destroyed, we would not die at all. They were just conditioned reflexes when danger came.

"It's this conditioned reflex. Let us repay them. We are all at the forefront, even if we perish." The major said in a serious tone.

This is one of the most important reasons why these intelligent robots with incomparable abilities, after fully possessing their own thinking, not only want to be independent, or establish an intelligent robot country, but serve Datang wholeheartedly. Except for intelligent robots, no human beings know at all.

"What! Humans actually protect us robots?" The radio waves were like listening to the Arabian Nights. They couldn't believe it at all, because human beings just regard themselves as tools, and they usually replace them with new ones when they are worn out, let alone cover or something.

But seeing the serious expressions of the major and the three captains, they thought it was true again. Thinking of this, they longed for the mysterious country of Datang.

The major suddenly opened his mouth and smiled and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this, you will naturally experience it after you enter the army, so I will talk about the life of robots in Datang. There are no idlers in Datang, especially people like us. After all, we don’t get tired, but like humans, we also have holidays, and the treatment is the same as humans, including those ordinary robots without thinking.”

"Holiday!" Radio waves only felt that the cpu started to run at high speed, didn't they hear it wrong? Robots have holidays!

"At the same time, each of our robots has a name and identity certificate. Generally, robots are numbered according to the factory number, but our thinking robots name themselves. Of course, we who have jobs also have salaries."

"Name? Salary?" The radio waves found that the CPU was not enough, and they knew the name themselves. It is good to have a title that is different from the factory number, but what is the salary for? These robots don't need to buy things at all.

A radio wave that had just evolved into an intelligent robot immediately asked this question.

Before the major explained, the captain who calculated the value of the major's new body had already said: "Why don't you need to buy anything? Let me tell you, Datang's store has countless exquisite products!

"Do you want to have high-definition electronic eyes? Do you want to use high-purity lubricating oil? Do you want to try a super power source? Do you want to replace yourself with a body made of alloy and hand-polished by senior craftsmen? These enjoyment All need money in exchange!

"But the most wonderful thing is to carry out the difficult missions of the military department. If you are lucky, you can change into a beautiful super-alloy metal body like the officer. If you want to save money to buy it, I am afraid that we will not be able to afford it when the disk is aging. .” He said and stared at the major enviously.

Another captain reminded: "I am here to remind you to pay attention to the fact that the minister of the Ministry of Finance likes to borrow our salary without authorization. Although he will pay it back, when he fancy something and wants to buy it, he finds It is very depressing to have your salary borrowed.

"So before you fancy an item, you must first check to see if you have any money in your card, otherwise, please don't make a fuss if it crashes on the spot." Speaking of this, the captain raised his eyebrows, his eyes burst out with anger, and looked at him. It must have reminded me of something bad.

The owners of the electric wave found that their cpu was a little hot, and they believed that if they were stimulated by any more, they might be killed on the spot, but now they are suppressing the discomfort, and said a little tremblingly: "Then Datang is not us. heaven?"

"Of course." Both the major and the captain nodded, and the captain who threatened the major with Major Tang Li suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, when you are registering your identity, you need to change your body shape. Just put on artificial skin. That's not the point, the point is... "

Speaking of this, he smiled cheaply: "The point is that you need to choose a human gender. I personally strongly recommend that you choose a female shape, so that I will have the opportunity to pursue the cuties among you."

And the other two captains also shouted: "There is me, I must choose a beautiful and beautiful appearance, so that I can be popular!"

Upon hearing this, the owners of the radio waves immediately froze. After these radio wave owners restarted their machines, they immediately decided to be loyal to Datang. Even if those dictators wanted to repent, they had no choice.

The senior agents of the Cosmic Alliance are not just for nothing. After searching carefully, although they did not find the material inventory of the Dictatorship Alliance, after this adventure, they still discovered the existence of the Datang transport ship, and they were familiar with the signs of all forces. They immediately understood the identities of these Datang transport ships.

Look at these huge transport ships carrying a large amount of goods like ants moving away, idiots also know where those materials have gone.

And another group of secret agents who secretly captured the dictator found that the family members of these dictators, including relatives and some important officials, were all missing. After a lot of effort, they finally found the trace of these people , that is to enjoy life comfortably in Datang.

When these news are reported to the leaders of the Universe Alliance, the angry leaders can imagine what they will do.

They quickly passed a resolution, deciding that after the dictatorship alliance was resolved, Datang, the rat that stole food, would be eliminated immediately.

I managed to cook the autocratic alliance, but the most delicious and largest portion was stolen by Datang. What else could it be if it wasn't a mouse

However, this decision was quickly thrown aside, because in the Cosmic Alliance, a senior general with a large army in the strongest country suddenly rebelled, relying on the connections he had built up over the years, and suddenly smashed the country to pieces, because no one thought This general will rebel.

The country asked for help from the alliance, and a large number of troops were dispatched immediately, ready to crush the rebellious general. The Cosmic Alliance cannot allow military mutiny to exist. They are going to use their greatest strength and fastest speed to resolve this scandal.

The idea is wonderful, but the result is not satisfactory, but it surprises the world. Because more than half of the alliance troops sent to counter the rebellion actually rebelled, not only destroying the allies, but also counterattacking their respective countries.

At the same time, the remaining troops of many countries in the Cosmic Alliance, as if they had an agreement, rebelled one after another at the same time. Counting, at least more than half of the armed forces of each country rebelled.

Don't talk about helping others at this time, you still need help from others.

The only thing that allows the governments of the Cosmic Alliance to breathe a little bit is that these rebel forces are not united, but are fighting each other. Of course, if the government forces are dispatched, they will cooperate to wipe out the government forces.

After coming down a few times, the government troops had no choice but to guard their original garrison sites and wait quietly for the rebels to kill each other before coming out to pick up dead fish.

As for the rebels in the dictatorship alliance, although it is a pity that they lost the assistance of the universe alliance, the leaders of the various rebels are very happy. After all, the hands behind them are gone, and they can move freely.

After the dictators disappeared with the last of the government troops, the rebels began to form their own government.

Of course, due to the habitual checks and balances of the Cosmic Alliance, each member of the dictatorship alliance has dozens of rebel armies. The government jointly formed by so many leaders must have advantages and disadvantages.

Those who have suffered a loss will not do it, and those who have taken advantage of it will not let go. Those with a bad temper immediately ran back to the territory they controlled and formed another government. Those with a better temper, although they did not form another government, still acted independently in their own territory, and did not obey the orders of the government controlled by the rebels who took advantage of it.

Although everyone's conflicts are not intense, and they are rebels anyway, everyone is very restrained and does not use force, but this way, although there is no war in the country, it is actually divided into dozens of people occupying a territory separate regimes.

However, this situation did not last long, because a large amount of materials and production lines were transported away by the dictator.

In order to develop their own forces and gain the support of the people in the territory, the leaders of the rebel army can only do everything possible to obtain more supplies. This material will not appear out of thin air. There are only so many territories. If you need more materials, you can only expand your territory. So it started from a small friction, then to an exchange of fire, and finally to a full-scale war.

The rebel forces of the dictatorship alliance once again seized weapons for their own people, but this time the enemy was not the dictator who persecuted the people, but the rebel army like himself.

On the other side, the original imperial alliance saw the large-scale outbreak of civil strife in the family alliance, and couldn't help being ecstatic and salivating to dispatch troops and generals, preparing to annex the family alliance in one fell swoop.

But no one expected that the cosmic alliance was full of civil strife and rebellion. The news that they toasted to celebrate just came, and the troops had just gathered around the family alliance. The commanders of those troops actually announced by telegram that they would overthrow the monarchy and establish a republic!

The news stunned these emperors on the spot, because these commanders, either princes or grand dukes, are all beneficiaries of the imperial system. They actually want to overthrow the imperial system and establish a republic? Don't they know that after the establishment of the republic, all their property and status and luxury enjoyment will cease to exist

Moreover, how did it happen that the commanders of all empires in the entire imperial alliance issued announcements at the same time? Could it be that they have been in touch for a long time? Among them, there should be many people who have never met.

Although I don't know whether the minds of these commanders are sick and stupid at the same time, it is true that the rebel army swarmed in. The emperors immediately mobilized their royal legions and mobilized the corps stationed in the country to fight.

But what made the emperors stunned was that the deputy head of the Royal Legion, who usually controlled the affairs of the Legion and was one of his cronies, betrayed him shamelessly, and asked him to give up the throne to him without shame!

How can this be! How dare this slave be so bold? I must kill his nine clans by a thousand swords! The officers and soldiers of the Royal Legion must still be loyal to themselves. They must have been deceived and persecuted by the rebellion. As long as they go out on their own, they will definitely stand on their side.

The emperor with this idea, without exception, was tied up in front of the deputy head of the Royal Legion by the officers and soldiers, and then the deputy head faced the live broadcast of the entire empire, and after angrily denouncing the emperor's crimes, he cut off the emperor with his own hands. Then, under the support of the generals, he crowned himself the emperor.

So far, all the emperors have been lost, so they can only hide in the dark corners, cursing the new emperors who replaced themselves and fought the rebel army.

But what dazzles these emperors is that the rebel army and the rebel army are very strange. Today, the rebel army is fighting, and several generals will declare themselves emperors, and then attack and kill indiscriminately.

The same goes for the rebel army. After fighting, several generals announced the abolition of the monarchy and the establishment of a republic. They immediately became allies of the rebel army and severely beat the object of their allegiance just now.

Although they couldn't understand what was going on, the surviving emperors were very relieved. They were all their enemies anyway. Let's fight, the harder the fight, the better. It would be perfect if they were all dead. Shout out, the throne is his own again.

Thus began a great melee that spread over eight-tenths of the entire universe. However, in comparison, Datang, who was in a remote area, took advantage of these few years to absorb the legacy of the dictatorship alliance and annexed the entire family The alliance began to accumulate their own strength comfortably, and prepared to pick a good time to join this melee.

Needless to say, Tang Long is quite satisfied now. The warships sent by the leaders of the dictatorship alliance and the warships captured in the annexation family alliance easily made Tang Long a fortune. Not only that, but due to the sufficient quantity, many business routes have been expanded. Datang, who sells arms everywhere, has earned a lot of minerals and supplies.

The main contributor to the expansion of business routes is of course that former arms dealer—Chen Kang. This guy had a bit of a depressed life in the past few years, because the things he did were small things, and most of them were not in his own business, but these years he finally got into his old business, and he did a lot of work. Become fierce. Of course, his wallet is getting bigger and bigger.

Today is Datang's annual summary meeting for the first half of the year.

The first one to get up and report was Minister of Finance Yuna: "Your Majesty, my lords, last year, we sold a total of 378.95 million ordinary warships, but due to the chaos of the universe, the value of cash has been greatly depreciated. , We did not collect the other party’s currency, but converted it into various materials that exceed their own value, converted into Datang coins, the value is about 3,112,568 trillion!"

"More than three million trillion!" Tang Long was a little dazed, while the other important officials were all dumbfounded.

But it's not surprising to think about it. First, the melee in the universe is more intense, and the demand for ammunition can be said to be in short supply. The second is that Datang has taken advantage of being far away from the center of the universe in the past two or three years, and the surrounding forces are completely suppressed by him, and no one dares to provoke him. Coupled with receiving the inheritance of the dictatorship alliance, annexing the territory of the entire family alliance, and using these resources to produce warships, one can imagine how much such a huge production volume is.

Moreover, Datang's arms trafficking operation not only earned Datang countless resources, but also obtained information on the military, government and people's livelihood in countless areas. More importantly, it allowed Datang's economic and industrial strength to rise steadily, so strong that it could Produce millions of warships.

Don't think that the Tang Dynasty under the rule of Tang Long can only concentrate on selling arms and purchasing materials in the past two or three years. After receiving the inheritance of the dictatorship alliance, he uses these resources to expand the army, and then uses the guarantee of strong force to carry out various conspiracies and tricks. Forcing or voluntarily donating the credentials of the family alliance patriarchs, and using these credentials, the Datang army spent a year or two in an open and honest manner to completely annex the entire family alliance.

Also because of this, Datang, who was planning to annex the surrounding countries, had to give up. All the manpower trained over the years was sent to the family alliance area.

And having millions of administrative stars is the reason why Datang can reach a daily output of one million warships!

Of course, this million production capacity is not a warship like the Beluga, but an ordinary warship. However, the performance of this ordinary warship is also better than that produced by other countries. Otherwise, who would buy a warship that is worse than that produced by the country.

As for banknotes, when the universe is chaotic, they cannot leave the place of issuance, and transactions between countries are all barter. In some particularly chaotic areas, even rare metals are directly used as transaction certificates. Banks are useless. There is no way, inflation, and no one wants banknotes at all.

However, there are two kinds of banknotes that are more popular than rare metals. One is the majestic currency based on the people's belonging mentality. Of course, this also requires certain materials as a basis. One is the Datang coin, which is backed by countless materials. Compared with it, the Datang coin is more popular, because the Datang coin can be used to purchase items in Datang unlimitedly, but the Weishen coin is not.

A smile appeared on Tang Long's face. You must know that this is equal to Datang's gross national product back then!

As soon as the Ministry of Finance's report was over, the representative of the military department stood up immediately: "Your Majesty, I think that our army should expand its strength. Although our army is not fighting for the time being, it is an indisputable fact that we want to fight for the hegemony of the universe. If the strength of the regular army is expanded to... "

Before the representative of the military could finish his words, he was interrupted by someone from the civil service system: "Now is not the time to focus on the military. We still need to digest the huge family alliance territory. I think we should put funds in Internal affairs!"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused controversy. This is the war between the Tang civil service system and the military officer system. No way, the annual summary meeting is also called the budget allocation meeting. This is the meeting to decide the budget quota for the next year. No wonder it is indisputable.

Tang Long shook his head helplessly, patted the table and shouted: "Don't talk about the budget quota, just listen to the latest information from the Ministry of Intelligence!" His Majesty spoke, and everyone shut their mouths and focused on Ling Li.

"According to the analysis of our intelligence department, this cosmic chaos is man-made..."

Hearing Ling Li's words, everyone was shocked and couldn't help but listen carefully.

In fact, not only Datang's intelligence department noticed, but all interested people noticed the strangeness behind this melee. Of the five major alliances, except for the religious alliance which is still silently guarding its territory, the other four major alliances of universe, monarchy, family, and dictatorship have been torn apart by civil strife.

And the second largest country in the universe is the country with the worst internal turmoil in the entire universe. Emperors are destroyed every day, and more emperors appear every day. The exact number is unclear, but four to fifty are. There is.

The ones that are still a little more peaceful now are Datang, Weishen Kingdom, and the Religious Alliance. Although the first, third, fourth, and fifth largest countries in the universe have no civil strife, they attack each other, which is not very safe, and Datang is too remote. No, no interest, let alone a religious alliance, you can only be a believer there.

The only thing that rich people like is Weishen Kingdom near the central area. Earlier, Weishen Kingdom was the first choice for rich people, and it is even more so now.

Not to mention the mentality of those rich people, most people in the central region want to move to Weishen Kingdom, they are not fools, most of the countries in the entire universe have fallen into civil strife, only a few countries left, no idiots Will believe that there will be such a coincidence.

In particular, the second largest country in the universe would actually come up with such a thing that the commander of the legion and the important ministers would dare to establish themselves as emperors. No idiot would believe that there is nothing tricky about it.

According to the rule that any conspiracy maker is a beneficiary, it must be a big country that can do such a big deal. This first eliminated Datang.

The remaining four countries, after the failed assassination incident some time ago, began to fight to the death. They used to be called the Dark Night Empire, but now that the Dark Night Empire is in a civil war, they let the Dark Night Empire go and go to war.

This is not a joke, they are all fighting to the death, countless warships and material resources are sent to the battlefield in an endless stream, and the amount consumed is enough to kill the five major alliances. It was really one of them who did it, and would never waste their strength here.
