Hailiya went against the Human United Declaration and sent the God-Killers out. Although Hailiya denied this at the United Nations, the evidence provided by the Federation was solid. They couldn't deny it. The United Nations wasn't stupid. They knew who was right and who was wrong. Of course, they couldn't deny the fact that the Federation was strong enough to punish Hailiya successfully.
Of course, many countries in the United Nations were unhappy with the fact that the Federation used god-class mechas. However, the Human United Declaration didn't specify the restrictions on god-class mechas so they couldn't punish Hailiya for this. They were unwilling to accept the fact that the Federation used god-class mechas. They quickly drafted new regulations to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
Of course, the citizens of the Federation didn't care about this anymore. The entire Federation was in a frenzy because they wanted to go to war with Hailiya. What infuriated the people of the Federation and made them want to take revenge was the fact that the military headquarters kept sending them the death and injuries of the soldiers stationed on Planet Haijiao.
Ling Lan controlled the god-class mecha to protect Base 013 and the only base the Federation had on Planet Haijiao. She didn't let the reinforcements of the Federation fall into Hailiya's trap. However, the 200 million soldiers on Planet Haijiao weren't so lucky. Other than a few powerful people who managed to escape, the rest of the soldiers were destroyed along with their bases.
As Qi Yaoyang took back the territories that belonged to the Federation, the death statistics got higher and higher.
One month later, Qi Yaoyang, who had reinforcements, finally took back all the territories that belonged to the Federation. At this moment, the death statistics of the 200 million soldiers on Planet Haijiao were released. The number was shocking. Everyone in the Federation knew that many people were sacrificed but the death statistics of 160 million still shocked the entire Federation.
This was the first time in the history of the Federation that such a large number of people were sacrificed. They weren't sacrificed on the battlefield. They were sacrificed because Hailiya went against the Human United Declaration and sent the terrifying imperial operators from the God-Killers. If a few million soldiers were sacrificed, the citizens of the Federation might still be able to maintain their composure. However, 160 million soldiers made the citizens of the Federation furious. They went crazy.
Revenge! A life for a life! The Federation's people couldn't die for nothing. On countless planets of the Federation, a large number of protests were held. They requested the military headquarters to attack Hailiya and avenge the soldiers and soldiers of Hailiya.
In the Second Marshal's mansion, the Second Marshal looked at the latest intelligence report. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. "That old fox got away with it again." He kidnapped the public opinion of the entire Federation onto his war chariot and forced him and the Third Marshal to vote for him.
"What should we do now? Is there really no other way? " A few of his confidants said unhappily when they saw that the First Marshal's faction was once again in control of the country.
"Of course there's no other way. Right now, whoever doesn't agree to the war is going against the will of the people. We can't stop this trend." The reason why the Second Marshal was able to sit firmly in his position was because he was good at analyzing the situation. Right now, the First Marshal had all the advantages. The Second Marshal could only go with the flow. If they insisted on going against the flow, they would probably be overthrown.
These confidants knew that the Second Marshal was right. It wasn't easy for them to control the power and situation in the past. Now, they might lose everything because of this incident. Thinking about this made their hearts ache. However, there was nothing they could do. In the end, they could only smoke silently.
"Don't be so dejected. We still have a long way to go. The First Marshal might be proud now but who knows what will happen in the future." The Second Marshal sneered. That old fox was probably regretting his decision. Even if he didn't regret it, he would still be frustrated. Ling Xiao, who he supported in the past, was now a threat to his position.
"Marshal, are you talking about Ling Xiao?" One of his confidants was a smart person. He immediately understood what the Second Marshal was trying to say.
"The First Marshal's faction will probably enter a power struggle between the old king and the new king. Let's just wait and see." Although Ling Xiao was a threat to him and the Third Marshal's position, the biggest threat was still the First Marshal. He just didn't know if the people in the First Marshal's faction wanted to change their king. Haha, a good show was about to start. The Second Marshal was gloating. The First Marshal had suppressed him and the Third Marshal for almost 30 years. They had been holding back their anger for a long time. They were happy to see the First Marshal being humiliated.
Similar words appeared in the Third Marshal's mansion. The Third Marshal was a peace-loving person. He could only watch as the Federation entered a war and countless soldiers were sacrificed in a foreign country. He was frustrated. Unfortunately, he had been at a disadvantage in every aspect of his 30 years of fighting against the First Marshal. This time, he fell into the First Marshal's trap and was defeated once again.
"I hope this war can end on Planet Haijiao," the Third Marshal said worriedly. He knew very well that the Federation was like a tightly wound clockwork after years of war with many countries. Once the clockwork could no longer withstand the pressure, the clockwork would snap. At that time, the entire Federation would collapse. Not only would the economy deteriorate, but there might even be internal strife.
He could see the danger. The Second Marshal could see it too. The First Marshal could see it too. They all wanted to find a solution. As a peace-loving person, he wanted to gradually stop the war and let the Federation regain its rationality. However, the First Marshal wanted to shift the attention of the citizens to their enemy nation. He wanted everyone to become the war machine of their nation so that they wouldn't have time to think about anything else. The Second Marshal wanted to find a way to get the best of both worlds. However, in the eyes of the Third Marshal, this was just wishful thinking.
Everyone had their own plans and didn't agree with anyone else's way of thinking. This was also the reason why the three Marshals' factions would fight openly and covertly. They all wanted to control the military and hoped that the Federation would operate according to their ideas. No one was willing to give in. Thus, the battle would continue until one of them was defeated. They might even keep each other in check until the last moment.
"Ling Xiao … The key is Ling Xiao."
After the battle on Planet Haijiao, the First Marshal took the opportunity to suppress the Third Marshal and the Second Marshal's forces. The military was now under the control of the First Marshal's faction. However, the First Marshal's faction was still worried. The Third Marshal had the same thoughts as the Second Marshal. It all depended on the First Marshal's tolerance.
