Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 348

348. Chapter 347, we will not fail in our mission!

Gu Hang patted his mother’s hand, motioning her to rest assured, and then turned his gaze to the other people in the meeting.

No one spoke.

After people came out of the initial shock of his declaration, they instinctively began to think about the pros and cons of this matter.

What does this kid from the Gu family want to do?

No one could figure out what he was thinking.

Ivan Fachs kept his mouth tightly shut.

He didn’t dare to speak. When he

said he would let Governor Koroja go before, it was seven parts of sincerity and three parts of anger. He knew that the parliamentary faction would not let him get away anyway, and this big pot was clearly meant for him to bear, so it didn’t matter what he said.

He really wanted to let go and didn’t want to bear this big black pot. The Fachs family, with the support of three worlds, could no longer bear it, and the big pit of Koroja could not be filled at all.

If Koroja was finished in his hands, the entire Fachs family would be in trouble.

I used to think that Koroja was a big fat piece of meat, and it finally fell into my hands; now I know that I jumped into a big dung pit and couldn’t climb out.

However, when someone really showed up to take over this plate, he hesitated again.

He instinctively thought of a point: Could it be that this kid from the Gu family has a way to solve the Koroja problem?

At this time, he suddenly heard the head of Martinelli speak: “Governor Gu, don’t make a mistake. Fachers’ responsibility must be borne by Fachers himself! Do you understand what you are doing?!”

The head of the star region seemed to have some misunderstandings. He might think that Gu Hang had received some benefits from the Fachers family, so he came out to take the blame.

But Ivan Fachers himself knew that this was not the case.

He was even more confused.

“Governor Gu, do you have a solution?” He said cautiously, “Why don’t you tell me in detail?”

Gu Hang ignored this question, just smiled and looked at the person who could really make the decision.

Special Envoy Neil Laois looked hesitant.

She responded to Gu Hang’s gaze with a hint of inquiry.

She also wanted to know if Gu Hang had any solution.

But Gu Hang stopped talking about this matter.

He regained the rhythm of the talks:

“Since the disaster of Koroja appeared, we have seen too many ugly performances. The incompetence of the former Governor Akuna has led to the continuous chaos in Koroja, causing the 40 billion imperial subjects to live in hardship. The incompetent planetary government can not only bear the heavy responsibility of planetary development and imperial taxes, but also lead to the breeding and spread of plague cults.”

“The continuous struggle between the current Governor and the star district government has long disgusted countless people. You never want to solve the real problem, but regard the disaster of the imperial people as a tool to attack opponents and seek personal gain. The past four years were originally the golden time to solve the problem, but they were completely wasted by your dirty deeds, so that the situation has deteriorated to the current point.”

“You are unworthy of the trust of the empire and the trust of 40 billion people. You all should apologize!”

Gu Hang’s words directly opened the map cannon, scolding Fachs and the parliamentary faction.

The two parties looked ugly, and no one would be happy to be scolded.

But more people showed relieved expressions.

The diehards of the two parties are a minority after all. The neutral faction has long been disgusted with all this, and even quite a few people who have to choose sides between the two parties because of conflicts of interest have similar attitudes.

Seeing that the situation is not good, some people from the two parties in the struggle want to interrupt Gu Hang and spit back,

but they were stopped by Lao Yisi.

“Let Governor Gu continue.”

These words said by Gu Hang touched Lao Yisi’s heart. In the eyes of the star domain government, isn’t the matter of the Tianma star region exactly the same as what Gu Hang said?

However, Lao Yisi did not make it so clear in the previous quarrel. After all, in her opinion, no matter how disgusting these two parties are, the problem of Korojia still depends on them to solve.

Swearing and spitting will not solve the problem. No matter how annoyed and disgusted she is

, she has to coax the two parties. But this does not prevent her from listening to someone spitting and firing map cannons here.

At this moment, Lao Yisi looked at Gu Hang with expectation.

Come on, spray a few more words!

At least give those two parties a hard blow!

But Gu Hang changed his words and fired more fiercely:

“So, I propose here that since Ivan Fachers wants to resign, please approve it, Madam Special Envoy.”

The words sounded not as hard as when he sprayed people just now, but it was a real action to make Fachers resign.

If it was before, Lao Yisi would not agree.

After Fachers was replaced, there was no other candidate.

But now the situation is slightly different.

Gu Hang said before that he was willing to be the governor.

This solved Lao Yisi’s worries.

Anyway, if he insisted on letting Ivan Fachers continue to work, he would not be able to solve the problem, and it would be okay to withdraw.

More importantly, Gu Hang had already set the atmosphere here.

Lao Yisi looked at Ivan Fachers.

The latter wanted to struggle a little, but in the end, he was still scared. It

‘s better to throw away this hot potato as soon as possible. This was originally the predetermined strategy of the Fachers family.

He agreed to resign, and then said sourly and secretly: “I want to see what good ideas Governor Gu has!”

Gu Hang smiled: “What good ideas do I have? Of course I have one.”

“Korojia should be completely transformed into a war zone. Governor Korojia should naturally become the commander of the war zone and establish a united front and command centered on Korojia. The Imperial Navy and the Imperial Astra Militarum should temporarily fight together under a unified command to eliminate the cult disaster in Korojia.”

“In the next three months, I will mobilize my army, do my best to arm Mingyan City, unite the Star Army and the Imperial Navy, summon the Phoenix Regiment that has signed a loyalty cooperation agreement with the Alliance, and do my best to fight a battle to defend Mingyan City.”

“I will win, and the Emperor will bless me!”

“After the victory, Korojia will continue to maintain the war zone for six years, that is, three tax quarters. Part of the Pegasus Fleet, the 3rd Army Group of the Dragon Eagle Legion should continue to fight around Korojia and follow the command of the war zone commander. The star district government and the star region government should provide necessary material support.”

“And I will establish a complete and efficient administrative system, eliminate the inefficiency and corruption that the Korojia government has continued for countless years in the past, better mobilize the potential of the entire planet, and completely solve the plague cult problem within six years. At that time, the star district government and the star region government will see a complete, brand-new Korojia with sufficient development potential.”

Gu Hang’s words were quite passionate.

Moreover, it is not necessarily all empty words or lies.

He set an example on the Angry Owl and the Black Arrow. In fact, many people in the star region have become quite interested in the new “Alliance” and have begun to study the system of the Alliance.

Of course, even if they study it, it may not work.

The highly centralized and planned economy of the Alliance is nothing new. However, other planets basically have no way to copy it.

The Alliance can do this because it almost completely smashed the original system on two planets and then rebuilt it in ruins and blanks. Where else can such conditions be found?

Not to mention that the people in power on other planets are the biggest beneficiaries of the existing system.

Revolution of oneself?

Impossible.

However, if Koroja is handed over to the Alliance, then in such a chaotic war environment and the situation of rebuilding after the war, this Gu Hang may really be able to make some careers.

Although that is difficult.

However, all this is also based on the premise of solving the big crisis of “Fino City”.

If we can’t solve this thing, it will move at a speed of 30 kilometers a day. It will swallow Mingyan City in more than three months, and then the next target will be… The whole planet can’t stand it swallowing like this.

And what is the solution mentioned in Gu Hang’s words?

It is to fight a decisive battle outside Mingyan City.

What is the means of victory?

It is the support of the Space Marines, the power of the planet, and the promise of the Alliance to send troops directly to help…

In fact, many people don’t take the latter two statements seriously. If people think that the power of this planet itself is enough to solve the crisis, then everyone will not be so pessimistic and desperate about this matter. As for the Alliance’s army, the performance of the Angry Bear Legion does prove that the Alliance’s troops are quite capable, but they are only at the level of the Star Army – at best a little better. But the key is that this so-called alliance is only two planets with a total population of 500 million. How much can it get together? This is a matter of size!

But only the first point mentioned by Gu Hang, that is, the matter of the Space Marines, caused some commotion.

When the Phoenix first landed on the Angry Owl Star, it had already attracted the attention of some people.

But at that time, people’s attention was basically still on the political impact brought by this war group. Their identities are quite special. They were once convicted and sentenced as traitors in the Bauhinia Rebellion. However, in the end, this chapter did not resist at all, gave up its arms and surrendered. After reviewing their past experiences and communications, the Empire believed that they were deceived and coerced, so they gave them one last chance – the Expedition of Atonement. The

Phoenix also accepted it with pleasure.

That was a hundred years ago, and no one thought that the Phoenix would come back.

But they really came back and came to the Pegasus Sector.

This made the great rebellion that was just a distant melon in the eyes of the Pegasus Sector a hundred years ago shine into reality.

A hundred years, many things can change, but this is not the case for Space Marines. In the large-scale civil war involving more than a dozen Space Marine chapters in the Bauhinia Rebellion, the Phoenix Chapter was the only “traitor” that survived in the end. Moreover, in the civil war, many of the six loyal chapters suffered heavy losses under the attack of the Phoenix, and I am afraid that some hatred will be left behind.

What’s worse is that the Inquisition insisted on executing all the Phoenixes at the beginning, and traitors should not be forgiven. However, the Phoenix’s mother group, the Phoenix Regiment, played a big role, united many Phoenix-related sub-groups, and pleaded for mercy. In addition, the Phoenixes were indeed bewitched, and they gave up their arms and surrendered themselves, which resulted in such a result.

But the Inquisition still hated them, and those regiments that had made enemies in the civil war also hated them.

The people in the Pegasus Star Region were most worried about the arrival of the Phoenixes, that is, they were afraid that this troubled regiment would bring trouble to Pegasus.

As for the combat power of the Phoenixes themselves?

Only seven veterans were alive, what was that?

But no one expected that only eight years later, the Phoenixes would have a momentum of recovery.

Although people don’t know to what extent the Phoenixes have recovered now, their combat performance on the Black Arrow Star has formed intelligence, which has landed in front of many people’s desks and has been repeatedly read.

Although I don’t know how this young man from the Gu family made a group of Space Marines obey his orders and fight for him, I don’t know how the size of the Wrathful Owl and the Black Arrow can support the revival of a Space Marine regiment. But as of now, if the Phoenix is in good condition after the revival, then letting Gu Hang take over is really the most likely solution to the problem.

At this point, except for a few people who are obsessed with political struggles, the rest of the people have to regard solving the Korojia problem as the first priority in the face of reality.

“I support Governor Gu to serve as the Governor of Korojia.”

“I support Korojia being under the jurisdiction of the Alliance.”

“I appeal.”

…

Listening to these voices, Chief Ivan Martinelli was silent.

Envoy Laois stood up.

“I understand. As the special envoy sent by the star domain government to the Pegasus star region and fully responsible for the Koroga campaign, I have approved the resignation of Ivan Fachs, the governor of Koroga 3, and appointed Gu Hang as the acting planetary governor of Koroga 3.”

“I authorize the establishment of the Koroga war zone and appoint Gu Hang as the commander of the war zone to coordinate and manage the war in the Koroga galaxy. The remaining part of the Pegasus fleet and the 3rd Army Group of the Dragon Eagle Legion should fully obey the unified command of the war zone commander.”

“The Koroga war zone will last for six years, and the star domain government will do its best to provide supplies and manpower assistance. The first batch of military aid will arrive in two months.”

At this point, Neil Laois looked deeply at Gu Hang:

“The first strategic goal of the Koroja war zone is to ensure that Mingyan City will not be lost; the second goal is to destroy the creeping hive city of Fino; the third goal is to solve the problem of the plague cult on Koroja 3 and restore the payment of imperial taxes within six years.”

“Governor Gu, I hope you won’t let me down. The 40 billion people on Koroja, the Pegasus District Government, and the Dragon Eagle Star Region Government are all watching your performance.”

Gu Hang solemnly performed a Sky Eagle Salute: “I swear to the Emperor that I will not fail my mission!”

I struggled a bit to write this, I will try my best to make up for the chapter I owed yesterday.
