Thousand Lakes Republic, Tututat City.

This port city with a total area of ​​more than 300 square kilometers is a territory directly under the sea tide territories.

The so-called "directly under" means that every plant on this land belongs to Renault.

From taxation to laws, everything is implemented in accordance with the standards of Haichaoling. The Thousand Lakes Republic has no right to speak, and even without permission, the people of the Thousand Lakes Republic are not allowed to step into Tututat City.

To obtain this land, Renault only spent a small price of 10,000 Kinnars.

To some extent, this is quite splitting the Thousand Lakes Republic.

However, Renault, as the highest speaker of the Parliament of the Republic and the true controller of this vast land, was tacitly ignored by the nobles above and below the parliament for his bad behavior.

The factions that support Lord Speaker naturally have no opinion.

In fact, this group of people has long been accustomed to the monarchy. In their eyes, the title of "Senior Speaker" is no different from "Your Majesty the King".

A noble majesty is willing to pay 10,000 kinnals to the treasury to purchase a "small" piece of land where birds do not **** as a family hereditary territory. This act of generosity is shocking.

The factions opposed to Renault only dared to curse a few words in private.

The speaker is overwhelmingly powerful, and there are countless lackeys under his command, and only idiots will openly criticize the subordinates.

Over the past two years, dozens of nobles have been cruelly deprived of the title by the Lord Speaker with various excuses, and exiled to the distant sea tide land, and since then they said goodbye to their homeland.

In addition, in the name of the parliamentary council, the Lord Speaker forcibly purchased the territory of criminal nobles at a very low price, ruining the accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years in these families.

Regarding this heinous atrocities, the nobles of the opposition dared not speak out.

Under such circumstances, who does not worry about being persecuted by the Speaker and becoming the next miserable victim?

Therefore, everyone unanimously opened one eye to the lawlessness of someone under the crown, and Quandang did not see it.

...

The predecessor of Tututat City was a remote and extremely backward small fishing village.

After Hai Chao Ling obtained control of this place, he immediately began to construct construction projects.

The Haichao Chamber of Commerce has built a large-scale port, high-tech magic factories, and residential buildings made of reinforced concrete here, making them a jewel in the south of the Republic.

This city has one of the biggest characteristics-there are no walls.

Renault believes that the city wall is a costly, but nothing useful thing, but will limit the development of the city.

In another world, this is unthinkable.

Because a town without a city wall is like a little girl without any strands of her body, who can only be mermaid, robbers can come to looting at any time, wild beasts will swagger in, and fools will settle here.

But Tututat City is different.

There are countless people who are willing to settle here with the strongest force under the crown of the God of War, and the sea tide leaders who are powerful in the human world, like crucian carp crossing the river.

In just two years, this dilapidated little fishing village has been transformed into a large city with a total population of 350,000.

If it weren't for the local political affairs office, deliberately restricting the influx of population to ensure that the scale of the industry matches the number of people, I am afraid that the population has already swelled to 400,000 or even 500,000.

Tututat City and Chaka Town in the north, no, it should be called Chaka City now, becoming the two sharp steel nails that Renault nailed into the Republic.

These two cities, north and south, are like two giant hands, firmly controlling the economy and military of the Republic.

For example, in the industrial zone of Tututat city, the huge quantities of goods produced by many factories, plus the large quantities of goods transported here from the sea tide, account for almost half of the market share in the southern part of the Republic, which also makes this place change. It has become a very attractive city of wealth.

Let me give you another chestnut. From the military airport on the outskirts of the city, a formation of magical fighter planes can fly to any town in the south within 3 hours and burn the town to white ground with incendiary bombs.

In addition, the Southern Army of the famous Republic is stationed outside Tututat.

This magical mechanical corps with more than 5,000 soldiers can reach any southern town within 3 days, and completely destroy or control the town with irresistible force.

Similarly, the Southern Fleet, based in Tututat Naval Port, closely monitors the coastline of the Republic. If the navy is willing, even a small sampan should not even go to sea.

It is this powerful force that integrates military and economic forces that firmly suppressed all opposition parties in the Republic and forced them to be honest, no one had the courage to use their brains.

The most amazing thing is that the Parliament of the Republic also needs to pay a sum of "protection fees" of up to several million Kinnars to Haichao every year as a national defense expenditure.

This expenditure is not fixed and will fluctuate depending on the actual situation.

It roughly includes the following parts.

The first is a basic expenditure of up to 2.5 million Kinnars.

This is the wages, bonuses and various welfare expenditures of the Haichao army, as well as the depreciation expenses of weapons, equipment and military installations.

This expenditure is fixed and will be discussed collectively by the Parliament every three years, and the specific amount will be re-determined according to changes in the price level.

Of course, according to Master Lei's rules, basic expenditures are only allowed to increase, not to decrease.

The second is floating expenditure.

It includes, but is not limited to, wars, military exercises in the spring and autumn seasons, and daily training costs. The amount is roughly between 1.5 million and 5 million Kinnars.

If the scale of the war is extremely long and the duration is extremely long, it is not impossible to soar to 10 million Kinnars.

In other words, all the expenses of the Haichao army will be paid by the Thousand Lakes Republic, and Renault does not need to pay for a copper nar.

As for the army of the original Thousand Lakes Kingdom, it was abolished on a large scale, from nearly 200,000 people to less than 10,000 people, completely turning into a display.

I have to admit that this kind of thing is very funny.

It is like that the villagers in a certain village not only have to endure the daily squeeze of the village tyrant, but also have to pay the bully a small amount of compensation, thanks to his conscientious squeeze the villagers.

Last year, in the headquarters of the parliamentary council in The Hague, when the Lord Speaker delivered a "mid-year speech", he said something that impressed all the noble parliamentarians:

"The truth is within the range of the magic air cannon!"

The current situation of the Thousand Lakes Republic is simply the most intuitive and appropriate explanation of this sentence.

...

Tututat military port.

"Oh my god, how did the military port become like this?"

Gonzalez, the extraordinary water system, leaned against the ship's side of the Twin Towers, looking at the pier full of seaweed, seaweed, and garbage, and said in amazement.

"Your Excellency, although you are a navy, you don't seem to care about the news on the battleship." Lieutenant Andras said with a smile, "When I was chatting with a communicator yesterday, I heard him mention,'Seaweed' It attacked the southern coast of the Thousand Lakes Republic two days ago."

"It looks like it hasn't missed Tututat City... Well, look over there, many shrubs have been uprooted... Tsk tsk, this storm is really not small, it is estimated that the loss is quite large..."

Gonzalez's focus is obviously different, he asked curiously:

"Lieutenant, does'Seaweed' mean the name of the storm? Why do you name the storm?"

"This is an order from the Lord Lord in the harvest month of this year." Lieutenant Andras replied, "Lord Lord thinks that giving each storm a code name is easier to distinguish and more convenient for daily communication."

"You can imagine that when talking about storms, it is more convenient to use descriptions such as ‘this storm’ and ‘that storm’, or is it better to use names such as ‘seaweed’ and ‘biscuits’..."

"It makes sense, it is really necessary to name the storm." Gonzaleston suddenly felt.

Igos didn't speak, he just silently looked at the getting closer and closer to the pier, his eyes became extremely complicated.

After two years, he finally returned to the Thousand Lakes Kingdom again, no, the Thousand Lakes Republic.

Although it wasn't too long to leave, Igos felt like a lifetime.

When living in the city of Copernicus, he lived an embarrassing life, but in Haichao, he suddenly lived an extremely rich life, and with the passage of time, his life became more and more prosperous.

He also saw a lot of unimaginable things, and witnessed this island city with his own eyes, step by step transformed into a legendary paradise.

Today, the hometown is more like a symbol of affection in the eyes of Igos. If he is allowed to return to the city of Copernicus, he is determined not to.

Nostalgia, it is better not to see.

Beside the three of them, a large number of sailors gathered on the deck, pointing at the distant city, talking in excitement.

After wandering in the ocean for so long, they can't wait to set foot on land and have a good rest.

Yes, it's just a simple rest.

Go to the tavern to have fun. No one dares to think about things like sleeping in the flowers and sleeping willows, and no one dares to do it.

Hai Chao leads the army very strictly. If the active servicemen dare to mess around, wait to be expelled from the army and go to the hard labor camp to do heavy work every day. You are lucky if you survive, and you deserve it if you die.

However, at this time, the battleship suddenly shook slightly, and its speed was greatly reduced.

Then, the horns on the ship floor suddenly sounded:

"Everyone, this is Captain Lutherford. I just received an order from the commander of the Southern Fleet, Colonel Camacho."

"Due to the storm seaweed, all parts of the southern coast of the Republic were severely affected, and some places even experienced seawater intrusion."

"According to Colonel Camacho's request, the Twin Towers must now go to'Hilton Town' urgently to rescue the local victims...Hilton Town is located about 80 kilometers south of Tututat Port..."

After hearing these words, the sailors couldn't help but lament.

"I order all personnel to return to their posts immediately... repeat, please return to their posts immediately..." The sound from the horn continued.

Despite slight dissatisfaction, the well-trained sailors faithfully carried out the order. A group of people ran fast on the deck, and the officers kept urging loudly.

"Guys, speed up..."

"hurry up……"

Igos and Lieutenant Andras looked at each other and hurried to the cabin.

In this rescue operation, it is estimated that the two will not be able to escape.
