Chapter 310, Governor's Speech
"To all the inhabitants of Owl Star:"
"I am your governor, Gu Hang."
"Two and a half years ago, I came into this world and promised the entire planet that I would save this world."
"I once promised that I would establish a unified government, unite the people of the entire planet, and bring security to the entire world; I once promised that I would save everyone from hunger and panic. I will let everyone enjoy a normal life."
"So, the new alliance government replaced the old alliance and established the alliance army. The army formed by the Raging Stars themselves conquered the south and the north and unified the entire planet. All the Raging Stars finally united without any separation. Let us work together to achieve a common goal and no longer differentiate ourselves based on power, nationality or ethnic group interests."
"Most of you have never heard that declaration. But it doesn't matter. I, and the alliance I established, have been making these 'promises' step by step for two and a half years. Bring it into reality, bring it into everyone's eyes."
...
Listening to the words coming from the radio, a tavern in Silver Sand City, the capital of Peninsula Province, was filled with cheers.
These men were Union soldiers.
After the fighting on the Western Front ended, the large forces retreated to the east, but not everyone stayed in the west.
The war had just ended, and local governance had been handed over to the newly established local government, and military control had ended. However, brothers in the army were still needed to stay and suppress the local area.
However, the situation in the three western provinces is better than when the three eastern provinces were first recovered. There is no complex and intertwined local power in the three eastern provinces. After the completion of Blackbird Heavy Industry, there is a blank here.
After the Alliance liberated a large area of land and cleared away the Blackbird Heavy Industry on it, it was not difficult to rebuild order.
As a result, the alliance soldiers stationed in the west have a relatively stable mentality and have basically encountered no serious incidents. The army can even allow the soldiers to leave the station to go outside or go to the city for vacation.
The city also welcomed the arrival of Union soldiers.
The discipline of Union soldiers is very strict. They pay when they go out to buy things, drink, and eat.The allowances in the hands of the soldiers are real alliance coins, which are quite strong.Although the residents of Silver Sand City who have just become citizens of the Alliance have been assigned a certain rank, most of them are at the E5 level, and the subsidies given are not much. It would definitely be good to earn more.
The troops have been informed for a long time that there will be a speech by the Governor today.People on duty naturally listen to the radio at the military station.And those of them who go to the city to have fun on vacation can only find a place to listen.
No one wants to miss it.
They found a tavern, and when they gathered their friends, most of the tavern was filled with Union soldiers on leave, sixty or seventy in total. At their request, the owner of the tavern switched the channel playing music to a news channel. .
To be honest, the boss was not very happy.
When the governor began to speak and boasted about "I have brought my promise into reality," he just glanced at the soldiers who were cheering crazily. He did not dare to speak loudly, but muttered:
"Those high-ranking masters are bragging. You are a group of cannon fodder soldiers who have been brainwashed into fools. What are you cheering for?"
Although he spoke softly, he was still heard by a soldier who was very close.
The man turned his head and stared at him fiercely: "What did the old man say?"
The boss was startled and murmured but did not dare to speak any more.
It didn't matter if he got beaten, he was most afraid that the store would be smashed by these soldiers.
Seeing that he didn't dare to speak, the soldier became even more angry: "We followed the leadership of the Governor and rescued you from those iron monsters. You guy, you just say such things behind your back? Huh?"
He stood up, smelling of alcohol, and approached the boss.
The boss shrank back in fear. He felt that he was finished and this beating was inevitable.At this moment, another tall figure blocked the soldier.
He was a bald man with several scars on his face, but his expression was unexpectedly peaceful.
He first advised his comrade-in-arms Baoze, "Don't be angry, don't be angry...".
"This guy is so mouthy! Dimitrao, your old company was completely wiped out, and as a result, you are said like this. Don't you want to teach him a lesson? Don't you dare me to come! I will take care of the disciplinary issues myself!"
"It's not a disciplinary issue, it's just not a matter of discrediting the Governor," Dimitrao said.
"Humph!" The man was obviously still very angry, but after saying this, he miraculously held back his temper.
After Dimitrao finished persuading people, he turned around, faced the bar owner, and said seriously: "Mr. Boss, I hope you apologize for what you just said."
The boss was about to apologize very quickly.
But before he could say anything, he was stopped by Dimitraau.
"No need for now. I don't want your apology to be due to fear or fear. Listen first. After listening to the Governor's speech, you can then decide whether to apologize or not. I will never force you."
The boss could only stand aside anxiously, listening hard to the information on the radio.
He couldn't care less about regretting his bad mouth now. He had to listen carefully and see if he could find a way to avoid being beaten when he apologized later.
The words on the radio continued:
"...We resisted the resurgence of the cult, we nipped the green-skinned alien disaster at its source, and our soldiers went into space and thwarted an attack by an green-skinned space fleet."
"In the Qinggu area, we set aside a large safe area in the north and basically eliminated the threat of aberrations in the northern Qinggu area; we eliminated the cult in the Qinggu area, and the alliance's army drove the demons back to their hometown."
"In the three eastern provinces, we have wiped out the stubborn old forces."
"In the north, we completely eliminated the original Angry Owl sect that endangered the world, and allowed the Polar Industrial Group to join the alliance."
"In the West, we have just completely eliminated Blackbird Heavy Industry. We have ended the fear that 300 million people in the west of the mainland have to face all the time. They no longer have to worry all the time that they or their family members or relatives and friends will be named and sent away. Entered Blackbird City and was never heard from again."
...
Just hearing this, the owner of the tavern in Silver Sand City was a little shaken.
In the past, Blackbird Heavy Industries dominated this land, especially in the later stages.They continue to forcibly relocate people to Blackbird City, promoting a better life.
At first everyone believed it, but as time went by, even though people outside didn't know what was going on inside, no news came out to the relatives and friends who went in.
Gradually people began to question the matter, but all those who dared to question it publicly were often quickly named and taken away;
This is how the bar owner's son and daughter were taken away.In the past, he had never believed in conspiracy theories—perhaps he just couldn't believe it and still had a glimmer of hope.
But the arrival of the alliance completely exposed his illusions.
He didn't want these fantasies to be exposed. He would rather believe that his son and daughter were still alive; he would rather believe that this was just a dog-eat-dog war between those in power.

There will be another chapter later, so try to read it tomorrow before three o'clock, don't stay up late!
