Chapter 352 Alex is frightened and secludes himself in isolation!
Chapter 352 Alex is frightened and secludes himself in isolation!
At this moment, in the distant country of Alex, the whole country is in panic.
What on earth is a mighty military power panicking about?
Alex's capital city, Tiak.
Various rude voices rose and fell in the parliament chamber. The formerly aloof, gentle and well-paid officials were now shouting like barbarians in the city, wanting to make the walls and ceiling collapse.
The people in the conference hall were roughly divided into three groups. Among the three groups, the most radical group shouted the loudest.
"How could the mere Kingdom of Flowers wipe out Alex's army of [-] people!" A strong man with a broken beard said angrily, "And Barbatos and Lawrence both died there, we have to avenge this! "
"We must avenge the two lieutenant generals! Send the most elite national defense army and siege equipment to destroy the Kingdom of Flowers!"
The boss of the radical group had spoken, and the subordinates behind him also kept up with the rhythm and shouted loudly.
"Two lieutenant generals, you radicals are really selfish. We, Mr. Albos, were kind enough to give advice to those two barbarians, but they didn't stop. I think they deserved their death!"
The neutral faction had actually already shaken their resolve due to the news of Wingo's death, but unfortunately they had already dispatched their backbone, Lord Aibos.
However, after the news of the war's disgrace came back, the neutrals no longer held a neutral attitude and all supported the conservatives.
As for the news about Barbatos' heroic sacrifice sent back by Aipos - it appeared to be a heroic sacrifice, but in reality, they didn't know what the situation was.
The radicals now want to wonder if it was that bastard Albos who betrayed Lord Barbatos and acted underhandedly, which led to the failure of the war.
But this reason is simply untenable.
The [-]-strong army was basically the army of the radicals, and two senior officials of the radicals died tragically on the battlefield.
According to the letter, Lawrence was killed by enemy machine gun fire, while Barbatos died fighting to protect the evacuation of the fleet.
The radical group knew very well what kind of person Barbatos was.
It was impossible for him to make such a decision. Even if the entire fleet sank, Barbatos would not necessarily die - maybe one day he would see Barbatos on a pirate ship and become a pirate again.
Honor and country are nothing worth mentioning in the eyes of Barbatos!
But this time they were really panicked. Barbatos was really dead - along with the [-] troops.
It can be said that the current radicals have truly lost their wives and lost their troops.
"I thought your Fearless Army was already Alex's most powerful army, what? Now you finally admit that the Protectorate Army is the best and most powerful general?" There is a man with a blue turtleneck on the conservative side. The tall and lanky man said calmly, "Still, you fearless troops are just a bunch of rabble!"
"Oh!"
The big man with a broken beard from the radical faction smashed the table in front of him, then stood up and glared at the tall and thin man.
"Ostrom, who do you think is the rabble!"
Ostom stood up slowly, and then looked at the man with a broken beard.
"I'm sorry, Lord Kaiku, have my words hurt your self-esteem? Then I sincerely apologize to you!" Ostom bowed slightly, but his eyes were full of mockery.
"Boy..." Kaiku stepped forward, ready to do something else.
"enough!"
A majestic roar stopped the two guys who were at war with each other.
The speaker is on a high platform, His Majesty the King, who is not on the same stage as any member of Parliament - although he is just a symbol of the country, the king's strength is not simple, and the king's family is also quite prestigious in Alex.
Being able to become the king is just because this family is relatively lucky. Because of this, not many people present are really loyal to His Majesty the King.
But in this kind of public place, the king's face must still be given.
"Hmph!" Kaiku snorted coldly, glared at Ostom, then glanced slightly at the king, or rather the king's position, and then left directly with all the members of the radical faction.
"This? This is the National Assembly Chamber. Are you just going to let that guy Kaiku leave? How unbecoming!"
A fat but well-dressed man next to the king watched the sturdy men walking out of the door one after another, and quickly admonished the king.
"Okay! Okay! Mutt, don't worry about those old guys from the radical faction, just let them go. They have suffered heavy losses and are getting angry."
The king does not look old, at least he is much younger than many old guys present, but in his prime, his hair is gray and white.
"Yes, sir." Mutt was the fat guy. When the king said this, he sighed and stepped back and stopped talking.
The king looked sad.
Although he is a king, he cannot make final decisions on national affairs - sometimes he even promulgates national policies, but the Congress directly denies them if they don't agree, and he is asked to announce the decisions discussed by the Congress.
As for whether he can deny it?
Haha, because there are more of them, the king alone cannot influence the thoughts of those ministers with different thoughts.
"The Kingdom of Flowers has more advanced weapons that can wipe out one hundred thousand of our country's elites in an instant!" The king said in a heavy tone. When he got the news, he almost fainted without standing still.
"My dear friends..."
The king looked at the remaining people, all of whom were conservatives and centrists - but now the centrists rarely have such a clear stance, that is, they stand on the same front as the conservatives.
He supported the radicals before, but then immediately switched sides.
As a king, what I hate the most is this kind of idiot who has a vague position and can change his position at any time; as for the conservatives, they are also pedantic old men.
It's not as good as the radicals, who can also get the support of weapons from the Don Quixote family - that is the real reason that promotes Alex's development.
In other words, the king had previously supported the radicals.
But now, the radicals have lost, and so has he.
A tug-of-war that lasted for 20 years. The king has been replaced, but he still failed!Still a complete failure!
"Ugh--"
What else could a king do but sigh?
"Who can guarantee whether those lunatics from the Flower Kingdom will send troops to attack Alex's capital?" Ostom said directly upon seeing this, "And this time the Flower Kingdom suddenly rises, there may not be Babao Shui. The army is behind it."
"Then what do you think we should do?" the king asked.
"Seclude the country!"
Ostom made it clear what he meant.
"We must recuperate our efforts, close the country's borders, strengthen national defense and defense forces, and beware of any possible external attacks!"
"Then just close the country..."
