Chapter 74, Dilemma
"Why didn't anyone stop them?"
Mundoc, who was in the outer city, guarding the gate and sitting in the army, had just been woken up, and when he heard the news, he was already terrified.
After the governor's army arrived yesterday, although the nephew sent out failed to come back, the governor's army actually stopped outside, obediently, without moving.This made him quite satisfied. His tough attitude has achieved results. The next thing to do is to consider how to talk to the governor.
But who would have thought that early this morning, he heard the shocking news!
Under the escort of seven space warriors and eleven battle nuns, the governor swaggered through his army and was walking on the main road towards the inner city.
And during the whole process, the relationship between his army and the governor's guard seemed very 'peaceful'.
It is said that an officer who stood in the way died, having his head crushed with a blow.
But otherwise, not a single shot was fired, not a single shot was fired.
His soldiers, leaving the 'enemy' just like that, came over.
Why is that?
Have all my troops rebelled?
This was the source of Mundoc's trepidation.
Because it is not impossible.
He is a general and a commander, but nominally he is a subordinate of the governor, who is the supreme commander.Ordinary soldiers don't know that much about the twists and turns above, and they won't easily position the governor as an enemy.
To some extent, if the soldiers really wanted to 'rebel', what could he do?
Mundoc didn't even hold back, looking around, afraid that before the governor's men arrived, his own soldiers would tie him up the next moment, yelling something like 'borrow the general's head for use' and so on.
But luckily, that didn't happen.His personal guard battalion is still loyally guarding outside.
The adjutant who came to report the letter answered his previous question: "It is true that there is no one blocking it. I inquired and said that you may have allowed the governor's team to pass, so the soldiers did not dare to block or open fire..."
Not to mention others, even he himself thought so.
"Fart!" Mondock was furious!
"Uh... You never gave such an order?"
Faced with this question, Mondock calmed down instead.
He calmed down and quickly analyzed the current situation in his mind.
The situation should not be as bad as he imagined just now.
The soldiers are just confused, confused, and at a loss, but they don't mean to rebel.
The prestige that Mundoc established among the troops still exists, and the soldiers will still regard him as the supreme commander of the troops.
And more importantly, the propaganda they have done for a long time among the troops of the alliance authorities, and even in the entire city, is still effective.
Only six years have passed since the brutal reign of the second governor, and people still remember it vividly, and no one wants to go back to that time.And it is precisely with the help of this public opinion that in the past six years, on the one hand, they have puppetized the governor, preventing his decree from leaving the office, let alone affecting the wider land outside Fuxing City; , They also secretly blamed the governor for many of the bad things they did.
In Star Fury and Times City, after the baptism of the past 12 years, although there are still people who remember the revival of a generation of governors, people nowadays don't have much favor for the governor sent by the empire.
Hatred is not counted, after all, he is a newcomer, and he hasn't had time to do bad things yet.But the remaining fears and resentments are not lacking at all.
After Gu Hang arrived, he actually jumped out of Fuxing City and ran outside to mess around. This was unexpected by the high-level executives of the alliance, but they were happy to see it.
If you want to play any construction games, go for it yourself.No one believes that within two years, he can survive the imperial tax two years later just by building from scratch outside.Two years later, the governor was executed, and the top management of the alliance launched some scapegoats, saying that they were members of the governor's government, and they were finished together, and then just waited for the next governor to come, and survived another two years.
It is precisely because of this that they have recently relaxed their smear campaign against the new governor.
Not to mention, among them, there was such a traitor as old Hodgson!
Consciously or unintentionally, the news that the new governor is doing well outside has spread among the poor outside Fuxing City.
Until recently, they realized that the problem was serious. Not only did they kill Hodgson, but they also made it clear to the Governor that they would fight.Under such circumstances, they restarted a round of urgent propaganda work, trying to make Gu Hang a new 'second-generation governor', saying that he will come back to seize power and arrest half of the people in Fuxing City to become the empire Pay the tax, how miserable it would be to be paid as an adult tax...
But in fact, if the poor are really taxed as people... it might not be a good thing.It might be better to be a slave laborer on a starship than a pauper on Raging Owl.
Of course, there is also the possibility of being sent to the Star Militia Army as slave labor, cannon fodder, or a front-line logistics transport team... That may be a little bit bad, although the same food is full, but the average life expectancy is a bit low, measured in hours.
But when they advertise, they don't talk about eating enough, honor, or honor, they only advertise how long they will live.
Their propaganda still has some effect.
Previously, Gu Hang was very impressive in construction outside, and he also attracted a lot of refugees. Henry and Hodgson also did a lot of publicity, which made his reputation very good.
And now, if they try to speak ill of Gu Hang, the effect will be relatively limited.But at least it has diluted a lot of the previous good reputation, reminding people of the fear of being ruled by the governor, and the already tendentious attitude has become hesitant again.
Thinking back to this point, Mundoc had to rejoice that it was a good move.Otherwise, he might really face the situation where the governor raised his arms and the soldiers turned against him.
After analyzing these situations clearly, Mundoc knew roughly what he should do.
He needs to come forward in person, with his own prestige, to strengthen the will of the soldiers, so that they can clearly distinguish the situation, who is the 'enemy' and who is the commander.
Even, at the critical moment, he needs to further insist on his tough stance, so that under his encouragement, the Guards Battalion will clearly stop Gu Hang from moving forward, so as to drive the entire army.
But thinking of this, he hesitated again.
Intellectually, this is no problem; but is it really necessary to show up in person, to face the Space Marines?
If the governor really ignored it and ordered an assault, just the hundreds of people in his personal guard battalion, would he be able to stop it?
I'm afraid that his head will be taken off before the army has time to react and the heavy artillery has not had time to mobilize.
Mondoc was caught in a dilemma.
