Chapter 168, Gu Hang's past
Compared with those two ladies, Gu Hang can get relatively few things.
But he is content.
The target of this plundering fleet of the Iron Tooth Clan is Fury Owl Star.Pulling the strength of the caravan and the navy is tantamount to solving a huge problem for him that cannot be solved by his own ability.
This is the biggest gain.
And thousands of gift points, on the contrary, seem to be incidental and should be meant.
However, Gu Hang will still try to fight for more additional rights for himself.
Eliminate the pioneers on the surface, provide important information, participate in the star wars and eliminate the orc warlords... The planetary defense forces of the angry owl have contributed so much to this war and suffered a lot of losses. The Ministry of Military Affairs should not consider sending me some Advanced equipment to deal with wars that may occur in the future?
Even, Gu Hang is still thinking about one thing:
Now, there is already definite information that a giant like the Iron Tooth Clan may be involved in a large-scale attack on the Tianma Star Region.They have also de facto dispatched a vanguard fleet.
So, the empire needs to strengthen its defenses on Fury Owl Star, no problem, right?
In addition to stationing a starship, it is also reasonable to equip a certain amount of army power and station a real star realm army, right?
Oh, and the Astra Militarum is stretched?Can't get enough power temporarily?
That's all right!I, Gu Hang, the planetary governor of the empire, the most loyal courtier of the emperor, must share the worries of the empire.
This matter is covered by Nu Xiaoxing.
As the planetary governor, Gu Hang will fully support the construction of the Star Militia Army.
With only 1000 million tax coins, an army of tens of thousands of people equipped with various heavy weapons can be established on Fury Star.
People and equipment all come from the planet.
And Governor Gu Hang, because of his excellent performance in the last war, can be the head of this star realm army.
But this is very difficult to work with.There are not many examples, but very few, of planetary governors concurrently serving as regiment commanders of the Astral Army.
If he can't figure it out, Gu Hang can also settle for the next best thing and accept Thaddeus being pushed to this position.
And since a new regiment is to be built, the empire must of course allocate funds.
1000 million tax coins, isn't that just right?
Angry Owl Star was going to pay an imperial tax in a year and a half.
The imperial tax quota of Fury Owl Star is the lowest.This planet is in the Imperial Taxation Department, with a rated population of 5000 million, who need to pay 500 million tax coins per year for the imperial tax, once every two years, and once every 1000 million.
He only needs to pay a quarter of his first tax payment, which is a preferential treatment given by the star area government.Of course, the Imperial Taxation doesn't recognize this matter. Essentially, the extra 750 million yuan is handed over to the Imperial Taxation by the Star District Government instead of the Furious Owl Star.
The 750 million tax coins from the star district government will not be taxed to the empire, but will have to be transferred to me, which can be given to me directly, plus the 250 million tax coins that Nu Xiaoxing himself has to pay, adding up to 1000 million.It is very reasonable to establish an army group with a scale of more than 50 and equipped with various heavy weapons on Fu Xiaoxing.
When the time comes, Gu Hang will put all the troops under his command into it.
Anyway, army building is something to be done, and it is still the biggest support. It is offset by imperial taxation, and everyone is happy.The soldiers of the army belong to me, the officers belong to me, the supreme commander belongs to me, and the troops are also guarding the planet, so why not let me have the final say?
Just change the name.
Of course, it's not all bad.
The Astra Militarum is, after all, different from the Planetary Defense Force.The latter is completely under the orders of the Governor, and is only responsible for the internal affairs of the planet.The former needs to obey the dispatch of the Ministry of Military Affairs.Today, the order of the army is to garrison Nu Xiaoxing, so Gu Hang can still use his influence to completely control the entire team.But tomorrow, maybe a paper transfer order will come, and it is impossible to pull the troops to some unbearable battlefield to fill in the line.
Could it be possible not to accept the order?
But this kind of thing is false.
Not to mention that the probability of occurrence is not particularly high, even if it is not transformed into the Astral Army, when it is necessary, the Ministry of Military Affairs invokes a special emergency law to recruit the Planetary Defense Force and enter the Astral Army, that is also common Even Gu Hang couldn't stop things.
Instead of this, it's better to turn into an astral army and pull it down.If you really want to be dragged away, then let's pull it away, anyway... It doesn't matter whether it's the money or the people to form the army, it can be regarded as the empire allocated taxes to buy their lives.
Just treat it as a normal tax payment, so does Gu Hang lose anything?
It's better than the Planetary Defense Force being confiscated without a dime of compensation.
Of course, all of the above are just Gu Hang's assumptions.
There is still a long way to go before turning it into reality.
He said to the two women: "This is essentially to transform the reality of military victory into tangible political victory, and then into corresponding economic benefits. Since everyone agrees with the statement I made, the rest, It's just to solve some trivial problems."
Yelicia also nodded, and she further added: "There is no problem with the general facts, but there are two more important small links in it. One is what the intelligence I intercepted said; the other is Yelicia In the name of the Imperial Navy, the recruitment of a caravan of beautiful girls to participate in the battle requires proof."
Wang Jiarong said: "The latter problem is relatively easy to solve. Sister Yelicia, you sign a call-up order, which is paper-based, and it is said to be signed later; at the same time, you need to create a communication record. After accepting the call of the Imperial Navy, the actions after leaving the transition point are all aimed at bringing the Greenskin Fleet to the intended combat location."
Gu Hang also said: "I will do a good job in the ruins on the surface for information interception."
They began to talk carefully about how to patch in the middle, making sure that the details could stand up to scrutiny.
In fact, this is mostly useless work.In the absence of any problems with the general facts, there is a high probability that the Ministry of Military Affairs will not study these details in detail.If they had to send a special inspection team to carefully verify the specific details of each war, the countless wars that took place between these stars all the time would not be able to be checked by the exhausted Military Affairs Department.
Sometimes, the Ministry of Military Affairs even knows that there may be some problems in some places, so they don't bother to take care of them.
It's roughly the same, if you don't lie about your military achievements, or make up facts about major events, then that's fine.
As for what happened after the reward, the three of them had a tacit understanding and didn't talk much about it.
It is up to her and the Gu family behind her how to make up for losses and even make a fortune through operations.
It is also up to Yelicia and the Fofana family behind her to package her as a general of the Imperial Navy through operations.
Including Gu Hang himself, how to turn the things he imagined into reality, he has to find his own way.
These things do not need to communicate with each other.Under the circumstances that the general merits are certain, how to get the political interests in one's hands depends on one's ability.
...
Gu Hang had an in-depth exchange with the two ladies for a long time.
It is said that there are only a few details that need to be added, but even these details must be perfect.
There is only a very small probability that the Imperial Military Affairs Department will investigate, and even if it is, there is a high probability that the investigation will not be too serious. It is confirmed that a group of greenskins have been slaughtered on the surface, and twelve greenskins have indeed been blown up here at the transition point. The ship, the severed head did belong to an orc warlord, and that's the end of it.
But just for the tiny probability, things should be done as beautifully as possible to avoid even a little bit of accident.
After the agreement is completed, the rest is to go back and execute it.
After Yelicia left first, only the brother and sister Gu Hang and Wang Jiarong were left in the small living room.
The two were relatively silent for a while.
In fact, Wang Jiarong was not too angry about the loss at this time.
Although the caravan is under her name, in essence, it is the property of Gu's firm.She is the commander, the participant, and the leader.This heavy loss was not her fault, it was being targeted by invincible pirates, her crime would not be particularly serious.
Her status in the firm will drop, and her investment will lose a lot, which is what she should have done, but it won't really let her die.
Moreover, according to the new statement given by her cousin, if she can turn losses into profits, and even make a fortune, then everything will come back.
The matter itself cannot be entirely blamed on the cousin.
With the combination of several factors, she really couldn't get angry with her cousin who had grown up with her since she was a child.
But she's also not good at being too intimate.
This is mainly because of another thing.
She sighed and said, "Cousin, actually... Aunt still misses you very much."
"Oh." Gu Hang replied.
He doesn't mean anything else.From the memory of his previous life, he could see the figure of a beautiful woman.However, in his perception, the predecessor's deep feelings for his mother were very contradictory.
Love, that's love of course, but also some resentment.
To be honest, he didn't really want to deal with the parent's short-sightedness in his predecessor.In his perception, the things he retrieved from his memory are always separated by a layer of gauze and a layer of cloth.It's clearly there, but the feeling is not deep.It's like watching a movie, the story is clearly here, and there are psychological impressions, but I don't feel that it happened to me.
Of course, he couldn't give up these.
These things are in my mind, in my memory, and I can't throw them away.In addition, his ability to come out to be the governor of this planet depends entirely on his family background, and he will not lose this identity in the future.
The alienated but inseparable contradictions are summed up in his performance, which is just an "oh" indifferently.
On the opposite side, Wang Jiarong misunderstood.
She sighed again: "Cousin, you can't blame your aunt, she... well, anyway, you did something wrong this time. Leader Peides appointed you to be the governor of Star Fury, you shouldn't agree, it will make you You, Mrs. Gu, have fallen into a particularly passive position."
Gu Hang's heart skipped a beat.
There are secrets?
In his memory, he is one of the core children of this generation of the Gu family. His grandfather was the head of the previous generation of the family. His father should have been in this position too, but he died shortly after he was born died.The current Gu family does not have a real leader.
But his mother, Ms. Wang Qi is quite capable - this is Gu Hang's evaluation of the beautiful woman in his memory.
A woman who married in and died as soon as she gave birth to a child. In the subsequent internal struggles of the family, she kept a lot of interests belonging to her small family, and became a pivotal branch of the current Gu's firm.
It's not easy.
However, when he devoted himself to his career, he inevitably neglected his son.
In the memory of his previous life, the relationship with his mother was relatively indifferent, and he had little contact time. In addition, strict control, various gossips in the family during the growth process, and the faint isolation of his predecessor by the same clan, all achievements and performances were mediocre. , Not being recognized... The combination of many things is the source of resentment in the former body and mind.
Then, a few months ago, he met the head of the sector, Mr. Loon Peders, at an upper-class gathering.
The gap between the two is huge.One is the head of the star area, and the other is just a rich second generation.But Pei Desi chatted carefully with Gu Hang for a while during a toast exchange.
According to the memories and feelings of his predecessor, he felt respected.Leader Peders praised him in a cordial and gentle manner, saw his undisclosed potential, and looked forward to his future.Immediately afterwards, they talked about Nu Xiaoxing, saying that they hoped that a Gu family member could serve as the governor of Nu Xiaoxing, and solve such a difficult problem for the star district.
The predecessor was not completely stupid, he could see that the head of the star region was a little suspicious of fooling himself.
But he still accepted without hesitation.
From his point of view: Star Fury is the origin of the Tianma Star District. After returning to the empire, it has not been able to pay the imperial tax, and the star district government has been required to pay the price to make up the difference.And the decision to rebuild the Star of Fury was made by the head of Pei Desi, expanding the ninth world out of the eight worlds in the Tianma Star District.
Recovering the territory was the main achievement that Peders reported to the higher-level regional government. At that time, he had just become the head of the star region.
The nature of the head of the star area is not the same as that of the earth emperor like the planetary governor.The latter is more like a lord, once the military and government finances are seized, it will be no problem to ensure the tax revenue of the loyal empire, and it is difficult to move them; the former is more like a bureaucrat, a politician, who needs political achievements, needs to tell stories to decorate the facade, and needs the support of the planetary governor with real power In order to secure the position of the boss of the star area.
However, when I first came to power, I told the story of regaining the homeland. I didn't expect that the latter matter would be rotten. After decades of work, it turned out to be a burden on my back.
This is not only the reason for Star Fury's own conditions and poor environment, but also because the political enemies in the star area are constantly holding back, and the reconstruction work has been delayed.
Peders has had enough of this situation and must resolve this issue.
He wanted to unite with the Fofana family and the Gu family to solve this problem in one go.
The Peders brothers, the Fofana family, and the Gu family, these three families form an iron triangle in the Tianma star area.
Fofana represents the Imperial Navy, and the Gu family represents abundant financial resources.Coupled with the political influence of the Peders brothers as the governor of the Flying Wing Star and the head of the star region, they are fully capable of completely building the Nuoxiao Star.
Gu Hang's predecessor thought that he was the most capable person in the Gu family that Mr. Pei Desi had found.
He was even worried that there would be accidents in this matter, such as whether there would be other children in the family who would steal his governorship. He didn't say anything to anyone until the appointment letter came out.
Then, he slapped his mother hard.
