Chapter 233 Kunlun(2/2)
The honor given to those soldiers who can no longer return is the only comfort the Federation can give to the hearts of those who are still alive.
"Yes! Over the past hundred years, for the sake of the tranquility of our Southwest Federation, how many brave soldiers have buried their bones on the border. I cannot praise them enough. Treating them so slowly will chill the hearts of tens of millions of our Federation troops!" Ming Dong
Lai's eyes flashed with admiration and he sighed.
Then, a cold light flashed under the drooped eyelids, and his tone was a bit sharp: "However, there are always some people who, at times like this, keep looking at their own one-third of an acre of land. It's ridiculous.
What kind of temptation and exchange of benefits are carried out?
Although there are many things that can be exchanged in this world, from money to power, and even friendship and love, what about the glory that is exchanged for life? That is impossible and cannot be tainted by the word exchange."
"Yes, head of state, because of historical reasons, we may be able to accept certain behaviors done by some people while lying in the glory of their ancestors, but we should never allow some moth-like behaviors." Another minister-level boss
There was some indignation on his face: "Some people don't just want greater mobility, maybe... they are more greedy than we imagined. They are like a group of squirrels.
Quietly hollowing out the foundation of this thousands-year-old home of the Federation."
The other three people, including Wei Zhijian, did not speak. The one who spoke was Xiong Chusheng, the Minister of Agriculture, who was born as a commoner. He hated the so-called aristocratic family. Naturally, he expressed his views again through the words of the head of state today.
However, after thousands of years of development, the framework of the superstructure has long been fixed. Regardless of whether he is willing or not, it still exists and is extremely difficult to change. Not to mention a small country like the Southwest Federation, even in the much larger Kyushu Federation
,also the same.
Without the Li family, there is still the Zhao family or the Liu family. Power is the most deadly poison in the world. Once contaminated, it is like a tarsal maggot. No one can throw it away. And this is still in a republican federal country.
The desire for personal power has been constrained by a framework that has tried its best to restrain it. In those monarchy countries, the monarch and his gang of nobles are extremely greedy and lie down on the people to suck blood, even if they are "fat" to the point of dying.
Explosion, but greed, is a desire that is hard to satisfy.
Ming Donglai just stretched out his hand gently, suppressing his words of indignation, just like the absolute majestic light, and said in a deep voice: "I have said countless times that there is never absolute light or darkness in this world.
Maybe light will turn into darkness one day. Maybe one day our descendants will solve this philosophical proposition, and what we have to do now is not to let those who have contributed to the Federation let them down."
"And this, at least, the news you brought me today is pretty good." Ming Donglai continued, his eyes turned to the distance again, seemingly asking questions intentionally or unintentionally: "Oh! By the way, remember because of him
And the little guy who caused a confrontation between nearly a hundred officers and soldiers at Shuguang Military Base and intelligence officers from the Security Bureau?"
The four of them looked at each other. Perhaps for these big shots, watching the report from dozens of light years away was just to understand the whole process of the incident. For some of the little people, it was just a symbolic code. It was not necessary at all.
Come into their sight and even be remembered.
On the contrary, Wei Zhijian, who had the most authority among the people at the scene except Ming Donglai, hesitated and said after careful consideration, "The head of state, are you talking about...Tang Lang?"
When Wei Zhijian woke up, several big shots had impressions: "Is he the young man who fought head-on with Miyamoto on Lafite Planet and survived in the end?"
"Oh! The Security Bureau is holding on to the little guy who has an unknown origin!"
"Hey, the reason why the identity is unknown can be explained by the rumored unclear relationship with Commander Tang of the Southwest Military Region. Although Commander Tang's style of conduct is a bit unbelievable, the official letter from the Southwest Military Region
The explanation is, it’s terrifying to think about it carefully!”
...
In the capital planet, when the female relatives of the upper class gather together, they will mostly comment on current affairs, or discuss the work of a poor but talented poet who recently won a literary award, or a good song, or the work of a small official.
Anecdotes, or comments about an outstanding young man from a certain family.
Some hot social news may have become the topic of drunken chat among these upper class people. Not to mention that these people can talk about astronomy, geography, philosophy, economics, and decision-making with a cup of tea and wine, and they are invisibly in charge of federal politics.
In the economic context, big figures possess an amount of information that ordinary people cannot imagine.
They are not so happy that they can only discuss current affairs and art. That is a bit too boring. Some things can also be used as conversation topics after lunch. For example, the gossip of a certain admiral.
.
As for Tang, it was because of this gossip that his actions on Lafite Planet were spread to the ears of the big shots, and he became a very important presence in the entire incident.
In other words, regardless of whether Tang Lang is willing or not, he, an outsider who accidentally strayed into the starry sky, did not do it because of the bloody fight on Lafite Planet, nor did he interact with the admiral's daughter, but because he happened to meet the admiral's commander.
The unfounded and almost absurd rumor that officials have the same surname has entered the eyes of the big shots in the capital planet, and has become a discussion among the top twenty people in the entire federal power center.
Is it ironic? No, it's very true.
Of course, for a federal leader to suddenly mention his name, it is naturally not because he wants to hear his gossip. There is no doubt about this, including several big shots who are trying to understand the intentions of their boss.
