Chapter 1571 A Discordant Episode

In short, if the affairs of Qingchun City are regarded as a preliminary battle in the diplomatic battlefield, then it is naturally a great victory. Everyone thinks that if the preliminary battle is won, will the glorious victory of the main battle be far away?

Of course, there has never been a lack of examples in history where the preliminary battle was won but the main battle was defeated, but at this time, there should be no low EQ people to remind everyone of this.

Facing the congratulations of the reporters, President Nishita said: "Thanks to the glorious victory of Yuan'an! Hahaha, Titan, before the battle with you, I never dreamed that we could capture such trophies. If it weren't for my brother Yu Lian who gave me the greatest support on the front line, how could there be today's diplomatic achievements? In fact, we are mutually achieving the victory of the community and the glory of the people of the community! However, you must remember that it was Yu Lian who led the front-line soldiers to break through the thorns. He is the real hero of protecting the country!"

In front of various media from all over the universe, the president was quite humble, as if he was grateful for the military exploits of his "good brother" General Yu Lian. Of course, he did not forget to highlight his presence. It was as if his military exploits on the "diplomatic front" could really be ranked with those of Yuan'an.

... Well, this seems a bit sarcastic. The president has indeed done everything he can.

Mr. Nishita then asked about the mobilization of Vice President Yero. He learned that he had been in the headquarters of the Serde Fortress. Although he had not experienced any danger, he was still on the front line. He nodded and praised: "This is what a true leader does! In ancient times, the vice president was also a wise king who ruled the country with ease. I am far inferior to him."

Just from the content of the words, this is the real yin and yang. However, the same content, when some people say it, is a bit sarcastic and sarcastic, but when President Nishita says it, it seems very sincere and natural, and even has a little more humor.

So, the reporters laughed one after another, and the scene was suddenly filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Of course, Vice President Yero was quietly accused of being a cowardly person by President Nishita, but the former also made some achievements in the battlefield on the far shore, so he shouldn't care. Probably...

But privately, the president told his secretaries: "Brother Yero should also be allowed to return to Earth. He does a good job, but he is also a civilian after all. If he stays in the fortress, won't it disturb the normal work of the frontline soldiers?"

Yang Mingzhao knew that the boss was actually worried that Vice President Yero got along too well with the frontline generals and bought military power. After all, he was Mao Yuanzuo's nephew, so he should have some means to win people's hearts, and he did not lack resources to buy the frontline generals. However, I don't know if he would think so because he had too little confidence in the frontline soldiers who fought bloody battles against the imperial army, or because he had too little confidence in himself, a righteous president.

Although Yang Mingzhao thought so in his heart, he replied: "I have been communicating with the vice president's office these two days. They have also finished the condolence activities on the front line and are scheduled to leave the Sai De Fortress today. They will also inspect the logistics and armament base of Xinshuntian and return to Earth."

"Oh, can they return in January next year?"

"That's the original plan."

"Please ask them to return to Earth in January. The president and vice president of the country cannot be away from the capital for a long time." The president ordered.

Yang Mingzhao half-jokingly said: "I understand. We have developed a complete set of methods to persuade the vice president to consider the overall situation."

"Mingzhao, Mingzhao, what would I do without you!" The president still looked very moved.

"Speaking of which, after today's activities, we are going to Weixianglou, right?"

Weixianglou is a high-end restaurant opened by an Earth astronaut in Qingchun City. It has been passed down for eight generations and is the most famous restaurant in the Great Public Sea Star Region.

The reason why it is called "Weixiang" is not because the fragrance is weak, but because the fragrance is immersed in the microparticles.

"Has the lady left?"

"Yes, you and the lady are scheduled to meet at Weixianglou at 6:30. The banquet hall has been arranged in advance."

In today's activities, President Nishita and his wife acted separately, and the latter also performed her duties perfectly. In another peaceful rally in Qingchun City to protest against the invasion of the empire, Mrs. Nishita's passionate speech caused cheers from the audience, and the spectators donated generously.

It must be admitted that Qingchun City is worthy of being the most important trade node in the Grand High Seas Star Region. Whether it is citizens or passing merchants, they are still wealthy and are also happy to donate a little in some political rallies. Perhaps, this makes them have an illusion that they are also the masters of the universe.

To be honest, these citizens living in the autonomous space city are indeed the most "democratic" group of people in the entire galaxy.

In short, the three-hour rally raised a total of 100 million stars in charity. Although it is not enough for the main god-class dreadnought to fire two rounds of main guns, isn't the president's wife's intention and efforts touching?

Then, it was the last event of the day. President Nishita and his wife would host a banquet for the representatives of the ten countries they were meeting with at the most famous restaurant in the Grand High Seas. After all, the "Atomic Feast" of Weixianglou was also a cosmic specialty and it was a must-try. Everyone could also talk about the situation of the war and the future of the galaxy while eating.

Of course, this was not done for the sake of eating. It was actually a trick played by President Nishita. Qingchun City is an autonomous trading city, but its sovereignty belongs to the Alliance. In the Alliance's territory, hosting a banquet for representatives of various countries, in addition to giving the Alliance an eye drop, should also be a representative for the international community, indicating that the Community is the leader of the Allied Forces against the Empire.

These methods may be a bit petty, and whether they can work or not is also based on strength. However, no matter how trivial the tricks are, it is better to do them than not to do them.

Moreover, when your Alliance shrinks its head, our Community is triumphant against the Empire, and even the emperor can take turns to be the leader. Does that mean that our Community cannot be the leader of the Alliance?

In this way, President Nishita walked with the wind when he left the door of the venue after holding a press conference.

He waved to the crowd cheering for him outside the cordon, and when he wanted to say a few words to everyone, he was pulled away by Yang Mingzhao next to him, and then he heard the sound of gunfire.

The President's brain was completely blank and at a loss. Then, the security personnel around rushed forward, surrounded the president and escorted him to the vehicle 10 meters away.

After the rectification and cleaning by Chairman Xiaona, the community's security clerks were still professional. They did not treat the president as a battering ram, but successfully sent him into the solid bulletproof car body.

At the same time, Killian also stepped forward, and the short knife slipped out of his sleeve. He did not block or chop the bullet away, but danced with the sword to stick the bullet down.

"That man!" Killian pointed in a direction, and the police officers and the president's bodyguards rushed forward and held down a man in his thirties on the spot.

The man struggled hard, but the wrist bones of both his hands were broken immediately. The pistol in his right hand and a dangerous-looking mechanism in his left hand were snatched away.

"I want bread, not..." The man roared with courage, but was immediately hit on the neck by the police's stun stick, and his eyes rolled up and he fainted on the spot.

Then, the security personnel searched him for two earth bombs.

It was not until this time that the onlookers realized what had just happened, and naturally there was an uproar. Fortunately, the police in Qingchun City were all elites transferred from the Alliance Police Department, and they quickly restored the law and order at the scene, and finally there was no tragic stampede.

Of course, they did not find the attacker's accomplices, and it was basically certain that it was a lone wolf incident.

Killian heard the last words of the attacker and was really hard to understand: "This, this is for bread? To assassinate Mr. President for bread, this is too..."

Yang Mingzhao calculated: "Maybe, it's a peace faction extremist."

How are the two words peace and extremism related? Killian said that he was even more difficult to understand.

When the two returned, the convoy started. President Nishita in the car finally reacted that he was shot. He was shot in the largest space city in the Grand Sea Star Region?

"What's wrong with the alliance's security? How can the thugs come so close? This is unscientific. Is it intentional?" President Nishita was still in shock, but his thoughts were still clear.

"We can't think that someone deliberately let it go. These autonomous trading cities have been very lax in the management of firearms and floating population. But what we really need to be vigilant about is the public opinion of the alliance at present." Yang Mingzhao said: "There are not a few people who hope that the alliance will stay out of it."

"I also hope that they will stay out of it. Just provide us with weapons and various strategic materials. This is our war, and we will lead this resistance war to defeat the invaders!"

Yang Mingzhao felt that Mr. Nishita was a little bit floating, as if he really regarded himself as the leader of a broad anti-imperial alliance. But the problem is that seeing that he is so shocked now, and obviously frightened by the shooting just now, this situation is a little abstract.

What does the duality of courage and cowardice belong to?

"What about the Alliance? What did the Alliance say?"

"Of course, they apologized and said that this kind of thing will never happen again. The Alliance High Seas Fleet is dispatching a capable high-speed ship to escort the Azure Princess."

"Hmph, we have an escort fleet." The president snorted.

However, he did not object. After all, the larger the escort fleet, the more impressive he is as the president.

"So, should the banquet continue?" Yang Mingzhao asked.

At this moment, Nishita seemed to be in a huge ideological struggle.

"My wife has gone, everyone has gone, if I don't go, wouldn't it be too timid?"

"I believe that all your judgments and actions are carefully considered." The marshal smiled and said, "However, if you don't attend, it will indeed cause some misunderstandings from the outside world."

"Security measures after that..."

"We are communicating with the Qingchun City officials, and they will send more security personnel. In addition, the security personnel from the fleet will also be in place." Yang Mingzhao said.

"Then go ahead... Mingzhao, during the event later."

"I will definitely protect you." Yang Mingzhao said solemnly: "If you want to hurt you, you have to step over my dead body."

"It's not that exaggerated. Ming Zhao, I think you will definitely become a good president. I look forward to the day when, as a retired old man, I can watch you take the oath of office as president while fishing in the countryside." The president forced a smile, and seemed to be full of energy again.

Mr. Nishita is a man with obvious advantages, at least he is very good at resurrecting with full health and full status.

Then, in the following hour, more than 2,000 soldiers with live ammunition poured into the four blocks near Weixianglou, blocking all traffic arteries, making it seem like they were not eating, but fighting terrorism.

The citizens of Qingchun City, whose normal travel was affected, were very dissatisfied. Before, they welcomed President Nishita as a war hero, but now they think that this earthling is a troublemaker, and hope that this guy will leave quickly.

It was under such circumstances that the president had a dinner with representatives from various countries, took photos, sang and danced, and vowed to fight to restore peace in the galaxy.

In short, although there were some minor discordant situations, the diplomatic activities of Qingchun City were finally completed smoothly. Considering that several agreements were signed in black and white, it was indeed a victorious meeting, a great meeting, and a meeting that witnessed the future.

When the Blue Star Princess officially ended its foreign affairs mission and left Qingchun City, time came silently to December 13, 833.

President Nishita, who had been busy for two weeks and was shot once, still showed no signs of fatigue.

He was refreshed and full of emotions because of full work.

He now felt that he had been shot, and rounding it off, it could be considered as going to the battlefield to risk his life, right? He had paid so much for the country's anti-aggression war, and of course his heart was full of pride and satisfaction as a war hero.

This is of course understandable. As a national leader in wartime, you must firmly believe that you are also a hero in order to show convincing leadership and charm. After all, this is an idealistic world.

Of course, there is another reason. After the shooting, the president felt extremely insecure, always feeling that there were terrorists everywhere in Qingchun City. Even the banquets afterwards had several gaffes, but fortunately, his wife and Yang Mingzhao made up for it.

However, after returning to the Azure Princess and the fleet set sail, this subtle confusion and uneasiness disappeared, and the president also changed from a panic-stricken potential mental patient to a vigorous and confident person.

It is understandable that the Azure Princess is his own territory after all, and returning to the ship is like going home, and a sense of security arises naturally.
