The premium box of the Cigar Club on the first floor of the Gaston Building.

There are only two people, Lu Ming and Chief Babasha.

Before Lu Ming was going to the royal capital to answer parliamentary questions, he passed by Gir City because Babasha had contacted Danilova several times and wanted to meet with the Commander, saying it was urgent.

"A large number of black sheep corpses..." After listening to Babasha's words, Lu Ming stopped shaking the wine glass, thinking deeply.

"Yes..." Babasha sighed, "But let alone appeal to the Imperial Council or ask for help from the United Kingdom, even our Chiefs Assembly and the great chiefs in the north will not submit our request at all. They found out that we were serious and thought we were alarmists because they were just species that had not been found in the tropical rain forest before and washed down from the upper reaches of the Devil River..."

Lu Ming was silent.

Further south in the Gade area, there are three other states where Westerners gather.

The southernmost Western state among them is called Amrent State. In free translation, it is the desert state of the indigenous people.

And by default it is Indian state.

This state is extremely vast and has harsh conditions. Cowboy culture is popular and militia organizations are prevalent.

It is the farthest place that Westerners conquered southward, and they once massacred the local indigenous people.

Looking at the skin color and race of these indigenous people, they are indeed similar to the Indians in my previous life.

Today, Indians mainly live in the deserts, prairies and swamps in the southern part of the state.

Extending further south from the Indian gathering area is the chief tribe of Southern Xinjiang.

The chief tribes in the north are more influenced by the West.

Including the most powerful Emirate of Rahim, which is located in the northern center of the emirate. Rahim City also has the southernmost railway station of the empire.

The tribe that Babasha belongs to is the emirate in the southern part of the emirate group. It is scattered in the tropical primitive jungle. Some chief tribes are actually no different from primitive people.

What Babasha said was that many corpses of black goat beasts were found in the Devil's River across the rain forest. They were densely packed and terrifying.

The Devil's River is a giant river that meanders for thousands of kilometers in the tropical rainforest. Various streams in the eastern rainforest that have not been explored by primitive tribes converge to form a river in the west, and finally flow southward into the sea.

The widest part of the river is dozens of kilometers long.

New World?

Lu Ming frowned slightly.

I have withdrawn from the New World a long time ago, because I feel that both sides can be regarded as two races in terms of thinking and social model.

It’s okay to regard the other party as an alien, but both parties originate from the same ancestor.

It is best to live without contact until death.

A large number of corpses of black goat beasts appear in the Devil's River, which may indicate that there is a passage connecting to the New World in the primitive jungle.

However, this passage is not as secretive as the northern passage. The dramatic changes in climate over the years have gradually revealed this passage.

These black goat beasts are animals from severe cold areas and are not adapted to the tropical rain forest climate. They may have contracted some kind of rain forest disease after entering the rain forest, and this is why they died in large numbers.

"Okay, I understand, our first control will investigate." Lu Ming patted Babasha on the shoulder.

"Your Excellency, Commander, thank you, thank you!" Babasha's face was filled with gratitude.

……

Lu Ming did not pass the parliamentary hearing and his defense was rejected by the parliament.

Subsequently, Lu Ming filed a complaint with the Court of Queen's Bench, the highest court in the United Kingdom.

Then he returned to the Gede area and continued his lecture tour at his own pace.

After going back and forth like this, on August 2, Lu Ming came to the royal capital again and appeared in court to testify under direct questioning by the nine justices of the Supreme Court.

At this time, there is less than a month left before the election for Prime Minister of the Gede District on August 30.

Polls show that His Excellency the Commander has an overwhelming advantage over the second-ranked candidate, with a support rate of more than 70% in the Gede region. The second-ranked candidate is the former governor of the Rose Party. Göring's approval rating was only a dozen percentage points.

……

Having submitted his resignation, Chief Augustus is more energetic than before. Even though he is over seventy years old, he still sits upright.

Lu Ming admired this very much. Augustus really wanted to have a stable retirement life, unlike many powerful people who often become more greedy for power as they get older.

In a small country-style restaurant, Augustus invited Lu Ming to eat hot dogs and drink beer, and said with a smile: "My teeth feel better and better. For a while, I didn't dare to chew the hard ham. ."

Lu Ming smiled and said nothing.

The small restaurant was very lively. Many people knew Augustus' identity and came over to say hello to him.

"Have you seen Peter!" Augustus asked.

Peter is Dönitz's name. If there are no accidents, Dönitz will become the new head of the First Control.

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

"You handled things very well. Is your capable guard still in the Western Regions?" Augustus asked.

Lu Ming nodded. Augustus was talking about Kunpeng. To outsiders, it seemed that he had asked him to hide to avoid conflicts with those mysterious organizations. In fact, he was coordinating matters in the Western Regions on his behalf. Representative of the Western Regions.

"You are much stronger than I was when I was young. You will tolerate what you need to tolerate, and when you are about to explode, you will make them overwhelmed!" Augustus smiled. The old man's eyes were very kind, and he probably really appreciated it. The young man in front of me.

The young man in front of him, as a new commander who grew up in the first control system, Augustus believed that he had finally left his own legacy for the United Kingdom.

"Candice sent a message from the southern barbarians, confirming that your information is correct. There is probably a new continent in the east." Augustus let out a long breath, "So, yesterday I After meeting with the Prime Minister, he will still think carefully about my words."

Lu Ming nodded slightly. Although the old man seemed to be a royalist, in fact, after the war, he repeatedly backed down on the constitutionalists' efforts to suppress the split of the first control.

He was able to develop the First Control into a super behemoth during the war, and controlled the army down to the smallest detail. It was the decisive move for the United Kingdom to defeat the Kingdom of Grifenni. How could he be such a simple figure.

It can only be said that in his mind, the expansion of royal power is not a good thing. He believes that after the war, it is time to restrain the royal power.

Therefore, Henry II and Prime Minister Dumas are now at odds with each other. Prime Minister Dumas sneered at Henry II's solution to the problem, but when Chief Augustus went to talk, the effect was completely different.

"I think you can go back to Gil and just wait for the good news!" Augustus smiled, "Of course, the Prime Minister will probably talk to you directly. As long as you don't act stupid, he will probably tolerate it and face it for the time being. Your existence."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Thank you, Commander!" He picked up the beer and clinked the glasses with Augustus gently.

……

On the fifty-eighth floor of the Gaston Building, in the extremely luxurious living room.

The principal of Medellin is worried.

Although Bridget seemed to be talking softly to Scarlett beside her, in fact, when she looked at Lu Ming, there was a hint of sarcasm in her blue eyes.

The Court of Queen's Bench has issued a ruling, rejecting the Lord Commander's complaint and ruling that Parliament's disqualification of the Lord Commander's candidacy was not unconstitutional.

Principal Medellin is the first deputy of Lu Ming’s campaign team. He is the principal of the most prestigious Royal Gill Business School in Gill.

The school was originally called Gade Business School. It was renamed after the Kingdom of Sonia conquered the area and became one of the royal schools where members of the Sonia Royal Family are sent as directors.

Medellin has profound insights into the relationship between the political system and economic development, and Lu Ming admires him very much.

Now, there is no doubt that the commander's campaign team has reached the moment of choosing a successor.

Principal Medellin is not very confident that his successor will be able to defeat Goering after such a change.

Because of the ruthless ruling of the Supreme Court, all the commander's campaign efforts have become illegal. If the Rose Party members make good use of this, they are afraid that the commander's campaign will not only become useless, but also become a Negative equity.

The commander originally intended that although the Supreme Court had a high chance of overturning his appeal, it would not directly define the behavior of the parliament. Instead, it would not overturn the case on the grounds that the Supreme Court had no power to intervene in the review of candidate qualifications. Judgment by parliamentary resolution.

But I didn’t expect that the worst result would come.

Danilova bowed slightly, listened to Lu Ming say a few words, and then turned on the TV.

On the screen, Göring was being interviewed by Kunlun TV, one of the three major TV stations in the empire, talking about how the commander's campaign had endangered the legal basis of the United Kingdom.

What he said makes sense.

After all, there is a ruling by the Supreme Court as a basis.

Bridget looked at the TV screen quietly, with a complicated look in her blue eyes. She didn't know if she felt regretful.

Lu Ming smiled: "Mike, come and pick up my baton."

Principal Medellin looked up in a daze.

Bridget stood up suddenly and said in disbelief: "No way, General, I am probably the only one who has a chance to win now!" This was the first time she had lost her composure in front of Lu Ming.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "After Principal Medellin wins the election, you will be appointed as the deputy prime minister and my special representative."

Bridget's pretty face turned green and white. She hesitated for a moment, and finally said coldly: "You don't mean what you say. Besides, you don't really think Medellin can win, do you? I hope you won't be too You are so self-willed!”

Lu Ming looked at her and smiled without saying a word.

Danilova frowned and said: "Pay attention to the attitude of your words, you are just the master's concubine!"

"What concubine? What master?!" Bridget's anger during this period seemed to have finally exploded, "You Oonians are used to being slaves, do you think everyone is the same as you? It's just the same What a lunatic!" He looked at Lu Ming and said, "You are surrounded by mental patients, and you. I heard that several senior generals of the army have written a joint letter to sue you! If your Ecumenical Party loses this election, you There is a high probability that you will not be able to keep your military position. Then, you ask this weakling to be your successor?"

She pointed at Medellin, her pretty face was livid, her chest was rising and falling, she looked furious, but she looked very charming and sexy.

Lu Ming was helpless: "It's a little early for you to flip the table. The joint letter incident was not only exaggerated, but also solved long ago. I deliberately leaked it to the outside world to gain people's sympathy and let them know because I wanted to help They are seeking benefits, but in fact I am under great pressure.”

Bridget sneered: "But, looking at it now, it has the opposite effect, right? Besides, now you can say whatever you want!"

At this moment, the TV screen suddenly changed, and a piece of extremely important news was inserted.

The background of the Kunlun Channel female reporter who is very elegant and elegant on the screen is in front of the Parliament Building of the United Kingdom. "According to the news our station has just received, His Majesty the King's Privy Council submitted a secret proposal not long ago. The proposal recommended, The representative of His Majesty the King is stationed in the Gede District, the Governor of the Military and Political Affairs of the Gede District, and according to reliable sources, the proposal has been supported by the Prime Minister Dumas and is now submitted to the Parliament. In a few minutes, the Royal Parliament will discuss it. The proposal is put to a vote."

"So, can this proposal that has been kept secret for a long time be passed? Let's wait and see!"

Bridget was stunned and looked at the TV screen in astonishment.

The Kunlun TV reporter on the screen was telling the history of the governor-general stationed there since the birth of the empire.

Generally speaking, as the representative of His Majesty the King, the governor's local military and political affairs mostly occur in remote colonies.

Such as the five Jiangnan provinces in the past.

In the Kingdom itself, there has never been an autonomous state where His Majesty the King has appointed a governor.

So, today's emergencies are probably due to the fact that the geographical location of the Gede area has become particularly important due to some special reasons. In particular, military and political orders need to be unified and not conflict with each other.

Lu Ming smiled, and he still recognized the news people of Kunlun Station. Naturally, they did not get the inside information from him, but the conclusions drawn from the behavior analysis of the highest level.

Indeed, Ogudus also persuaded Prime Minister Dumas from the perspective of national security to agree to the King's Privy Council's proposal to station a governor in the Gede area.

Because the southern Xinjiang area is likely to have a passage with the New World, and without knowing whether there is intelligent life in the New World and its level of scientific and technological development, the Ged Garrison is the closest garrison to southern Xinjiang and established the first The line of defense is very important.

Furthermore, Commander Bit received more than 70 percent support in the polls.

This matter must come to an honorable end, otherwise His Majesty the King and the royalists are likely to use this public opinion as a weapon to do more radical things in the Gede area.

The Supreme Court ruled that the parliament’s resolution to disqualify oneself as a candidate is completely legal, and this is also a compromise.

If not, Mulu deprives himself of his candidacy without persuasion, and votes to become the governor of the Gede District. The authority of the cabinet and parliament will be seriously damaged, and the constitutionalists will definitely not agree.

Of course, His Majesty the King can directly appoint the Governor of Gede District through the Privy Council.

But this will also cause a constitutional crisis, lead to fierce confrontations between constitutionalists and royalists, and even trigger a civil war.

This is an outcome that neither party wants to see.

In fact, Henry II originally wanted to do this, and it was the result of his own blow.

However, the events in southern Xinjiang temporarily calmed down the fierce competition between the two sides for the Gede area.

It also caused some of my plans to be delayed.

On the TV screen, a female reporter from Kunlun Station analyzed the upcoming political developments in the Gedeh Special Administrative Region.

Because the proposal is supported by Prime Minister Dumas, if both conservatives and liberals agree, there is a high probability that it will be approved by Congress.

The appointment of His Majesty the King’s representative, the Governor, will not affect the general election in the Gede District.

The SAR will still elect a prime minister.

The relationship between the Prime Minister, the SAR Council and the Governor-General.

It will be similar to the relationship between His Majesty the King, the Prime Minister and the Royal Parliament, with the three parties checking and balancing each other.

The Governor is the nominal supreme leader of the SAR, and the Prime Minister exercises executive power.

The female reporter believes that this is also a good thing.

"Bridget, what do you think the outcome of the vote in the United Kingdom Parliament will be?" Lu Ming asked Bridget with a smile.

Bridget's pretty face was green and white, but even her brother had no information. Obviously, this was the result of secret communication and meetings between those at the top of power.

Lu Ming looked at Medellin again and said with a smile: "Mike, are you confident as my successor now?"

Medellin smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, I have a new understanding of you now."

……

On August 5, the Royal Parliament approved the special proposal of the Privy Council.

On the 6th, Lu Ming went to the imperial capital to accept the appointment from His Majesty the King.

At the same time, a grand conferring ceremony was held, and Lu Ming was conferred the title of Air Force General by Henry II.

Served as Deputy Commander of the United Kingdom Air Force and Commander of the Gaede Garrison.

According to the first-level military ranks in the United Kingdom, they are general, three-star general and five-star general.

Marshal of the Empire is similar to the honorary military rank and is only awarded during times of war.

There is no doubt that Lu Ming has now become one of the most important senior generals in the United Kingdom's military.

The ranking in the army should be within the top ten, roughly the position of the top ten goalkeepers.

In the air force in the southwest of the kingdom, the new deputy commander of the air force has been authorized by His Majesty the King and the Prime Minister to conduct some secret military operations at his discretion.

Of course, this is top-secret information that only generals at the division level or above of the Southwest Defense Force know.

They were also notified of the possible existence of the New World.
