Chapter 1486: Moon War (II)
"Crazy! It's really crazy!"
Gideon Malik's hands and feet were cold and could not stop trembling. This was not entirely out of fear, but some inexplicable excitement. He knew that the emperor had ambition that ordinary people could not achieve, but he did not expect that this ambition would be so great, just like a great king from ancient times who drove the army, and even went to the front line to fight in person just to expand the territory. The current international community is no longer the era of being able to expand through war means. The implicit expansion from the international trade system and capitalism is more worthy of favor. Humanitarian laws such as international law also listed military expansion as the most despicable means. Therefore, the expansion of military power is the most expensive, and even bears various governance costs.
This is the simplest calculation that even idiots can calculate. There is no need to conduct military operations, it only needs to occupy the market and establish "good" political and business relationships. Then there is no difference between the company and the government, and it does not even need to bear the governance costs, and there is no need to worry about the people's ideas. The people are just votes, the welfare system and employment rate are the foundation of votes, and the media is the mouthpiece of votes, so there is no need to invest more costs.
"Will He choose to attack Istanbul on May 29?"
"A very interesting joke, dad."
"It's no joke, Stephanie. I thought Hydra could use His power to expand implicitly and occupy the market, but now it seems that He is a complete war madman. A warlord." Gideon Malik drank a sip of cold wine and tried to calm his emotions. Even though he knew that this ideal was unrealistic and the future path was difficult, he still couldn't help expressing his admiration in his heart. As an ordinary person, it's hard not to admire such a person with a firm will, even if he is a tyrant. People are addicted to this kind of person and can't help but praise, provided that they don't live under the rule of this tyrant. "Rome, Byzantine Empire. Fuck it, it's crazy."
"dad!"
"Sorry." Gideon Malik shrugged and threw a bill into the glass jar on the living room table. Now the jar has more than half of the bills, most of which were put in by him, and 80% were placed after the conservative Hydra decided to surrender to the emperor in full. "One hundred dollars, buy two chances of swearing."
"You know, even if He is heading to the moon now, he can walk into this door at any time." Stephanie Malik was not surprised by the news, from beginning to end. In her mind, it was very normal for the emperor to have such ambition, and she also knew that Diana Lister was able to send the news to her entirely because of the acquiesce of Regent Victor von Doom and the Emperor himself. Even so, Diana Lister had many things that did not say that the young and strong forces in the conservative Hydra had different ideas from those old guys, and these ideas were not suitable for deep participation in the Puritans of Anglo-Saxon Oil Company and the interests of the Judaism.
Hydra betrayal is common. Under her leadership, the "Emperor's Secret Dagger" assassinated at least 60 people to make the conservative Hydra barely unify her thoughts, and many surviving old guys also expressed appreciation for her methods. Conspiracy is not ashamed. The real shame is that evidence is found and cannot be erased after finding the evidence. That is the real shame.
"I have never known what happened on the moon." Gideon Malik's face turned gloomy. "I have reported so much information from the diplomatic association and the CIA to Him. I am not qualified to know what happened so big?"
"You know, Dad, His secretive tendency is very serious." Stephanie Malik was still calm. "I think I should go to work at the White House today, right? The new president is about to come to power, and I have to ask the chief of staff to recommend that the new president take back the military power in the Middle East and at least withdraw most of it. This requires your help, Dad."
Gideon Malik stared at the golden wine in the cup and remained silent. The lights broke into shining lights in the cup. Stephanie Malik didn't speak, and she knew that her father was making a decision. As his name, the emperor arranged for him as the same name in the Bible, eavesdropping on the enemy's intelligence and giving feedback. She also knew that no matter how cute she acted, her father's decision would not change unless he could see the interests.
"Are you sure this is in our favor?"
"I've never made a wrong decision, dad." Stephanie Malik tilted his head, shaking his short dark brown hair. "I believe this has allowed us to take all the help of oil from the Rockefeller family. They are too stingy with fellow Germans, aren't they?"
"I'll find someone else to talk about it." Gideon Malik still lowered his head. "It's not easy. Some people have been fed money to become piglets, not wild horses on the plains. The piglets are easy to control, and the wild horses refuse to tame."
Stephanie Malik smiled as if nothing had happened. "I've killed the wild horses," she said. "Pigs can definitely be killed."
"The Prince Chapter 9," said Gideon Malik, "Machiavelli won't agree with your thoughts."
"If He could re-occupy the Byzantine Empire while suppressing NATO, then the world would make him a holy king rather than a warlord. I believe He has the power to do it, and those weak politicians are not worthy of carrying shoes to Him." Stephanie Malik said with a smile, "You have never seen the pope's humility towards Him, even if He said he would destroy all religions."
"It's different, it's completely different. Even if He captured Constantinople, He would not expel the Turks, and "You Will Return Like Lightning" would not ring." Gideon Malik closed his eyes in despair. He carefully studied the emperor's book "Unified Truth" and read it word by word. He knew very well that the philosophical relationship between the ongoing reforms of the Yugoslav Federation and the "Unified Truth". The emperor's methods were sometimes more violent than Stalin, but they could stop at the right time. Chapter 9 of the Prince explains the underlying logic of this behavior, which is conceivable.
The people will respect Him more and more over time until everyone will go into the sea of fire for Him. This is Him, to be precise, the charm of His thoughts. It is said that some people have found the figure of the emperor in the countryside, at construction sites, and in hospitals, and many even claim that they have chatted with the emperor and had dinner. Folk legends say that the emperor has supernatural powers that can make no one distinguish his identity. The emperor explained to ordinary people that this is a natural force, a super-dimensional energy entered by the super-light navigation engine, which is a phenomenon that can be explained by science.
But for ordinary people, too advanced technology and magic are no different.
He could not imagine anyone who could prevent the emperor from establishing a country based on "Unified Truth". At that time, Hydra could only lower his head. Whether to cut off Hydra was entirely based on the emperor's will and kindness. Capitalism would only become the clay in His hands. Apart from digging for the whole country, merchants could no longer control the country. Gideon Malik did not think that was the end of Hydra, especially the conservative Hydra. "Learn more about Him, Stephanie, you should know Him more." Gideon Malik opened his eyes again, and his solemn attitude made Stephanie straighten his back, as if he had returned to his adolescence. "He is even more terrible than you think. This terrible is not in action, but in thought. We have no way out. Stephanie, at all, He has forced us to get onto the chariot."
