Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 311

311. Chapter 310, The Governor’s Speech

“To all residents of Angry Owl Star:”

“I am your governor, Gu Hang.”

“Two and a half years ago, I came to this world and promised the entire planet that I would save the 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, and let everyone enjoy a normal life.”

“So, the new alliance government replaced the old alliance and established an alliance army. The army formed by the Angry Owl Star people themselves conquered the south and the north and unified the entire planet. All the Angry Owl Star people have finally united together again without any gaps, fighting for a common goal, and no longer distinguishing each other because of power, nationality, or ethnic interests.”

“Most of you have never heard of that declaration. But it doesn’t matter. I and the alliance I established have been bringing these ‘promises’ into reality and into everyone’s eyes step by step over the past two and a half years.”

…

Listening to the words coming from the radio, a tavern in Silver Sand City, the capital of the Peninsula Province, was filled with cheers.

These people are all soldiers of the Alliance.

After the war on the Western Front ended, the main force withdrew to the East, but it was not that no one stayed in the West.

As soon as the war stopped, the local governance had been handed over to the newly established local government, ending military control, but the brothers of the army still needed to stay and suppress the local area.

However, the situation in the three western provinces was better than when the three eastern provinces were just recovered. There were no complex and intertwined local forces in the three eastern provinces. After the Blackbird Heavy Industry was finished, there was a blank here.

When the Alliance liberated a large area of land and cleared the Blackbird Heavy Industry on it, it was not difficult to rebuild order.

In this way, the Alliance soldiers stationed in the West were relatively stable in their mentality, and basically did not encounter any vicious incidents. Even the troops could allow the soldiers to leave the garrison and go outside and go to the city for vacation.

The city also welcomed the arrival of the Alliance soldiers.

The discipline of the Alliance soldiers is very strict. They go out to buy things, drink, and eat, and they pay when they should. The allowances in the hands of the soldiers are real Alliance coins, which are quite strong. Although the residents of Yinsha City who have just become Alliance citizens have also been assigned ranks, most of them are at the E5 level, and the allowances issued are not much. It is definitely good to earn more.

The army has already notified that there will be a speech by the Governor today. Those who are on duty will naturally listen to the radio at the army station. And those who are on vacation and have fun in the city can only find a place to listen.

No one wants to miss it.

They found a tavern, and after calling friends, most of the tavern was full of Alliance soldiers on vacation, at least sixty or seventy; at their request, the tavern owner switched the channel playing music to the news channel.

To be honest, the owner was not very happy.

When the governor began to speak and boasted about “I have brought the promise into reality”, he just glanced at the soldiers who were cheering crazily. He didn’t dare to speak loudly, but muttered:

“Those high-ranking masters are bragging, and you, a bunch of hard-working cannon fodder soldiers, have been brainwashed into fools, why are you cheering along?”

Although he spoke very quietly, a soldier who was very close still heard it.

The man turned his head and stared at him fiercely: “What did you say, old man?”

The boss was shocked and stammered but didn’t dare to say anything.

It was okay to be beaten, but 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 obeyed the leadership of the governor and saved you from those iron monsters. You guys 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 would be beaten.

At this moment, another tall figure blocked the soldier.

He was a bald strong man with several scars on his face, but his expression was surprisingly calm.

He first persuaded his comrades, saying, “Don’t get angry, don’t get angry…”

“This guy is so annoying! Dimitrao, your old company was wiped out, and someone said this. Don’t you want to teach him a lesson? If you don’t dare, I’ll do it! I’ll take care of the discipline issues myself!”

“It’s not a discipline issue, it’s that you can’t discredit the governor.” Dimitrao said.

“Humph!” The man was obviously still very angry, but after saying this, he miraculously held back his temper.

After persuading him, Dimitrao turned around and faced the bar owner, saying seriously, “Mr. Boss, I hope you apologize for what you said just now.”

The owner was about to apologize, and he was scared very quickly.

But before he could say anything, he was stopped by Dimitrao.

“Not yet. I don’t want you to apologize out of fear. Listen first. After listening to the Governor’s speech, you can decide whether to apologize or not. I won’t force you.”

The boss could only stand by anxiously, trying to listen to the information on the radio.

He couldn’t care less about regretting his bad mouth now. He had to listen carefully to see if he could find a posture from it that would save him from being beaten when he apologized later.

The words on the radio continued:

“…We resisted the resurgence of the cult, we killed the green-skinned alien disaster at its source, our soldiers went into space and thwarted the attack of a green-skinned space fleet.”

“In the Qinggu area, we have demarcated a large safe area in the north, and basically eliminated the threat of the 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 eliminated the stubborn old forces.”

“In the north, we completely exterminated the original wrathful owl sect that endangered the world, and let the Polar Industrial Group join the alliance.”

“In the west, we have just completely eliminated Blackbird Heavy Industries. We have ended the fear that 13 million people in the west of the continent have to face all the time. They no longer have to worry about themselves or their families or relatives and friends being named and sent to Blackbird City, and no news from them.”

…

Just hearing this, the owner of the tavern in Yinsha City was a little shocked.

In the past, Blackbird Heavy Industries completely dominated this land, especially in the later period. They kept forcibly relocating people to Blackbird City, promoting the idea that they would live a good life there.

At first everyone believed it, but as time went on, although people outside didn’t know what was going on inside, the friends and relatives who had gone in couldn’t get any news out.

People gradually began to question this matter, but all those who dared to openly question it would often be quickly named and taken away;

the bar owner’s two children were taken away in this way. In the past, he never believed in conspiracy theories—perhaps because he didn’t dare to believe it and still held a glimmer of hope.

But the arrival of the alliance completely shattered his fantasy.

He didn’t want these fantasies to be shattered, he would rather still 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.
