Chapter 348, I am the Governor of Koroga

Chapter 348, I am the Governor of Koroga
  "You are too impulsive."

  After the meeting, Wang Qi was criticizing Gu Hang.

  But Gu Hang was still smiling: "I got the Koroga 3 that I dreamed of. No matter how cesspit this place is, no matter how bad the situation is, if [-] billion people get it, that's everything. Everyone else is thinking about Governor Koroga How important is our position, and for me, these [-] billion people are the real opportunity to reach the sky in one step, and they are the harvest I want most."

  Of course Wang Qi knows the value of Koroga, but so what?
  She stressed: "This is a sinkhole! Even Fachus can't fill it!"

  "You are right. There are huge problems here. If one is not dealt with, everything will collapse. But on the other hand, if this is not the case, where would our chance come from? What's more...

  "Ok?"

  Faced with his mother's doubts, Gu Hang continued: "If you treat Koluojia like a hole, of course it won't be enough. But..."

  "Perhaps Koroga doesn't need to fill the hole itself?"

  "Koroja 3 is a world with huge potential. It contains the most precious resource in my eyes: population. People are actually more important than anything else. Only when there are people first can we have everything. Koroja has such huge potential and abundant resources. Jia, in fact, it doesn’t need anyone’s help. No matter how big the difficulty is, it can handle it. The premise is that no one holds it back.”

  "But unfortunately, for a long time, there have been too many things that have been holding Koroga back. The imperial tax is demanding the remaining wealth of Koroga. Even the wealth cannot satisfy the appetite of the empire. It needs to be handed over to the population. ; Koroga’s own bloated, incompetent and corrupt bureaucracy cannot fulfill its potential at all, and is instead a major reason for Koroga’s disaster.”

  "As long as these are changed, Koruga will be able to change the situation with his own strength."

  "And I'm here to change this."

  Wang Qi sighed: "I don't even tell you whether you can do it or not. You won't be able to pass the first hurdle in front of you."

  "This is the biggest difficulty." Gu Hang knew that his mother was referring to the problem in Fino City, "but I already have an idea to solve it."

  "Your plan for the decisive battle in Yancheng?"

  Gu Hang smiled: "Yes, and no. As it is right now, the chance of winning in such a decisive battle is too small. But I have some other ideas. As long as it succeeds, then the so-called decisive battle will be just an exhibition match. .”

  "how do you want to do it?"

  "Even if it's you, I can't say it."

  Wang Qi looked deeply at her son's face and said helplessly: "Okay, what can I say now? If you need any help, just tell me, Gu... Gu can only fully support herself. The head of the family."

  "Well, I do have a lot of things that require the help of Gu's Trading Company's fleet. From the Black Arrow Star to the Angry Owl Star, there are a large number of materials and personnel that need to be transported by the fleet. However, don't worry, it won't be in vain. Live. Now, I am the commander of the war zone. I recruit the Imperial Chamber of Commerce fleet and perform military operations. The Ministry of Military Affairs will pay the bill."

  Wang Qi nodded slightly.

  She wasn't worried about that.

  No matter how the war ends, Gu's Trading Company can make a lot of money from military orders.

  ……

  After finishing the conversation with his mother, Gu Hang boarded the landing spaceship headed for the surface and headed for Mingyan City.

  He needed this gesture to show his determination.

  It can't be like Ivan Farches.

  A dignified governor, after learning about the Creeping Hive City, took advantage of the meeting and immediately boarded the spaceship and boarded the starship. He hid in the orbit of the planet and did not dare to go down...

  Gu Hang really looked down on this guy who was good for nothing except his family background.

  Gu Hang, who was on the spaceship, stared at Koruga 3, which was getting bigger and bigger in front of him, until it finally filled the entire field of vision, and he was thinking a lot.

  At the meeting, he was impassioned in front of everyone;
  In front of his mother, he seemed confident and sure of victory.

  But in fact, he knew that everything would not be that easy.

  Lois' last words about his appointment actually contained a lot of meaning.

  First, his status was confirmed: Governor of Koroga, and Commander of the Koroga Theater.

  The latter is essentially more important than the former - at least for this war.

  Transformation into a war zone, first of all, means that Koroga does not have to pay taxes.

  Gu Hang's role as commander also means that after the Koroga war zone is transformed, he can clearly deploy all the forces deployed by the empire in the Koroga war zone. From military strength to all human and material resources, he has the final say.

  This power is quite large. Gu Hang has become the commander of the army, navy and planetary defense force, plus he has control over the administration and finance.

  In order to cope with this disaster, the star region government and the star region government must continue to transport various materials according to the needs of the war zone. Gu Hang could even further request to deploy more Astra Militarum forces.

  Of course, this last item is only Gu Hang's right to request, and may not be agreed to.

  After all, the empire had no surplus food.

  However, Gu Hang was able to completely dominate at least the things that existed in the Koroja war zone.

  Of course, everything has a prerequisite.

  Gu Hang and Lois were acquaintances at best, and they were hardly friends, let alone their own friends. Four years ago, she had her own purpose in inviting Gu Hang to replace Ivan Farches, and it is the same now. In the end, she supported Gu Hang's rise to power just to solve the problem. The core goal was to restore imperial taxes to Koroga as soon as possible.

  At the same time, there are still doubts about whether Gu Hang can do all this.

  Therefore, the staged goal is inevitable.

  The famous Yancheng must not be lost, this is the most preliminary. Now, no one can solve this problem. Gu Hang is a dead horse and a live doctor. The mess is thrown to him to see if he can save it. To lose the name of Yancheng to the Creeping Hive City would be a failure, and I'm afraid Gu Hang would be dismissed soon.

  In fact, although Lois did not say it explicitly, Gu Hang could imagine that the relevant reports had probably been sent to a higher level. The Star Territory Government, and even the Space Territory Government at a higher level, are probably already making two preparations.

  Once Gu Hang fails to solve the problem, the star domain government will extinguish any luck that it can defeat Koroja by relying on its existing power. In the follow-up, even if they give up the frontline battle, or ask for help from the space government, in order to prepare for an apocalypse-level battle, they will mobilize hundreds of millions of Astra Militarum, more fleets, even the Inquisition troops, the Ecclesiastical Fleet, and even Special forces such as the Space Marine Chapter will also come to solve Koroja's problem.

  But at that time, it had nothing to do with Gu Hang.

  Losers, get out of here.

  He hopes that the empire will help when the time comes, and then he can take the rest... Gu Hang feels that he doesn't have the political background to handle it.

  And if the situation is worse, for example, if the governments at the two levels of space and star are unable to allocate enough force to suppress the rebellion, there is a small chance that an extermination order will be issued directly. It would be much better for Koroga to be destroyed than to become a big demon cave and continuously export influence to the outside world.

  For Gu Hang, his time window is only a few months.

  Staring at the surface of Koroga 3, he kept recalling various information about this planet in his mind, and at the same time, he constantly switched to spiritual vision to check the subspace situation.

  His brain is always running, constantly improving the plan he originally came up with.

  Before that, he had already made contact with the alliance government on the angry owl star through the astrology tower on the starship. Afterwards, three key figures will lead their teams to Koroga as quickly as possible.

  These three people are Alliance Justice Lambert Hodgson, who will come with a group of demon hunters and a group of ICAC officials. Yancheng, a city with a population of [-] billion, and Koluojia, a city with a population of [-] billion. If Gu Hang wants to realize the potential of this world, it is impossible to avoid dealing with the original local administrative system. He can't replace all the Korokians with alliance officials. Firstly, the alliance did not have that many officials available, and secondly, the airborne administrative staff were not familiar with the situation in Koroga, and it would be difficult for them to be effective immediately.

  However, Gu Hang had great distrust of Koruga's original administrative system, both in terms of their abilities and attitudes.

  That calls for Lambert and his integrity unit.

  It would be impossible to immediately reverse the trend in Koroga and create an efficient and clean administrative system. But at least, first make sure that these people can accurately carry out Gu Hang's will.

  The chief of the alliance's military and political department, Lieutenant General Thaddeus, will bring a large number of military and political commissars. At that time, the Astra Militarum will not need to be taken care of by him, but Koroga's large number of local defense forces will need to be reorganized in order to effectively improve their combat effectiveness.

  The leader of the Phoenix Chapter, Martins, will bring over the entire Phoenix Chapter, which now has just over a hundred members. This number of Space Marines is already equivalent to a company of an ordinary battle group.

  Many battle groups will not gather all their strength together unless they encounter a high-intensity battle. Someone will be stationed at the headquarters, and the entire regiment will obey the empire's instructions, or respond to certain requests for support according to its own wishes, and send some troops to attack depending on the situation.

  This 'partial force' is generally based on a company.

  The hundred-man company level is already the sole unit of many Space Marines during operations.

  The Phoenix has recovered to this extent, which is actually enough.

  It's just that some of the 'underlyings' are a bit off. For example, there is a lack of things like Dreadnought mechas and certain heavy vehicles exclusive to Space Marines. But this thing can be filled by the alliance's army.

  These are the 'key people' Gu Hang needs next.

  Of course, it's not just them.

  In the future, the alliance will send a large number of administrative personnel, transport a large amount of materials, and even troops to directly participate in the war. However, due to the huge demand for transportation, we have to wait until the alliance has all these things and personnel ready, and Gu's Trading Company's fleet is also ready.

  At the latest, no later than three months, everything that should be in place must be in place. This is Gu Hang's request to the alliance government.

  The coalition government headed by Prime Minister Oceana has begun to operate at full capacity.

  ……

  After landing, Gu Hang moved into the Governor's Mansion in Koroga, which also welcomed its third owner in the past few years.

  Gu Hang's Governor's Mansion also exists on the Raging Owl Star and the Black Arrow Star.

  Not to mention the Governor's Mansion in Raging Owl, the top floor of the old Alliance Parliament Building was renovated into two floors. The government offices are still below, which are small and dilapidated. They have only recently had the time to renovate them.

  As for the Governor's Mansion of the Black Arrow Star, the alliance government originally offered to convert the palace of a certain country to the Governor-General, but Gu Hang rejected it.

  Those palaces were either used as historical buildings or government units. As for his governor's palace, a simple white house was built on the outskirts of Pinser City. Next to it is the Alliance's central government in Black Arrow. The place is big enough, spacious enough, and the transportation is convenient, so that's enough.

  This is because Gu Hang himself advocates the concepts of frugality, practicality, and efficiency, and the ethos of the entire alliance is generally the same - let's not talk about what happens in private, at least in public offices.

  But in Koruga, the situation is completely different.

  The Governor's Mansion, located in the upper area of ​​Mingyan City, is extremely luxurious.

  A large proportion of gold is the main color, combined with red and purple colors, which looks gorgeous and grand. Countless exquisite, hand-made reliefs are filled inside and outside the building, which are quite exquisite.

  Sculptures and ornaments covered with precious patent leather, coupled with the artist's exquisite paintings, serve as decorations and enrich the entire building.

  Indoor fountains and pools can also be found everywhere.

  The constant temperature and humidity here are not as harsh as some technology research laboratories, but they are enough to maintain the entire environment at the most suitable level for human life.

  This Governor's Mansion covers a very large area, even larger than the palace of the largest kingdom on the Black Arrow Star. And this is not the seat of the planetary government of Koroga, but just the residence of the governor.

  There are tens of thousands of ‘staff’ in this residence.

  They are slaves, attendants, and various types of ‘literary and artistic workers’.

  Among them, there are many art troupes of various sizes, large and small.

  Symphony orchestras, opera troupes, song and dance troupes, burlesque troupes, drama troupes... almost all of these artistic workers serve the governor. In conjunction with these art troupes, there are a large number of supporting staff and people who serve them.

  Even in this most critical moment, these people still 'stick' to their posts.

  Gu Hang had never done this before, so he didn't know for a moment how much resources it would cost to maintain such a palace and so many attendants in it.

  Gu Hang never denies the value of art, but he denies the value of the art he sees now.

  Gu Hang shook his head, but didn't do anything immediately.

  If all these art troupes were to be disbanded immediately, there would be no way to get back the resources that had been spent.

  Since the money has been spent and cannot be refunded, they must try their best to play their role.

  At Gu Hang's request, these art troupes began to choreograph some 'drama'.

  Powerful military songs, theater troupes reflecting the people's struggle against cults, plays praising frontline soldiers...

  Gu Hang has already put forward the request, and the specific work will be left to these artists. In the follow-up, how to fully publicize and disseminate these works and performances to all walks of life in the entire Mingyan City will be left to the officials of the Alliance Propaganda Department who will return to Dakoluojia soon.

  Next, Gu Hang sat in the Governor's Mansion and sent out invitations to important people from all walks of life in Yancheng.
