The scene was silent, and everyone was immersed in a deep shock, and the independent leaders on the stage were the same.

Is there a so-called "Anti-Secession Law for Co-Governing Areas" in co-governing areas like Fuxiaocheng? Yes, and it is a clear regulation.

But the problem is that in the past two years, the federal government itself has gradually ignored the anti-secession laws and secretly colluded with civil separatist forces. Not to mention anything else, the independent leader himself was secretly supported by the Grand Duke Mansion of Yingweide and constantly guided separatism among the people. Last week, he also received more than 10 million yuan from the Grand Duke Mansion.

The federal government secretly dominated the division of the co-governance region was very simple. First, politics smeared the Red Blood Empire, promoted it as a closed and backward dictatorship, and glorified the three-year-old war of aggression, and gave it the name of the Battle of Freedom and Liberation.

Secondly, it gives local residents great material benefits, erects a wall of life to isolate the wilderness, and builds restaurants, taverns, gladiators and other livelihood facilities to provide a comfortable living environment and improve their living threshold.

Immediately afterwards, brainwashing propaganda was carried out to tell them the gap in life between belonging to the Federation and belonging to the Empire.

Finally, when the people's independence sentiment became increasingly growing and gradually matured, they went beyond the anti-secession law to conduct independence referendums, separated the city from the imperial jurisdiction and formally incorporated into the federal occupation.

This is a very simple principle, which is classified into one sentence: it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Will people who have enjoyed bread, honey, wall of life, blood and sand in the arena stimulated by blood and sand will be willing to return to an empire with a significantly lower level of life? Maybe some people with strong hearts will, but not the majority.

In Dawn City, the first three steps of independence and division have been completed, political smear, material preferential treatment, and brainwashing propaganda have been completed. More than 90% of the people have agreed with the saying "There is the honor of the Federation and the empire is ashamed of it." Only the final exaggeration can be made.

However, no one expected that in this critical last step, it was not the imperial forces that stopped the division, but the Grand Duke Yingweide who once supported all this?!

The independent leader was completely stunned. Before he could come back to his senses, he could only say with a forced smile: "No, everyone, federal masters, we are..."

"According to the Dagong's law, I will surrender, otherwise I have the right to shoot you on the spot!" The Dagong Guard Captain was not a joke at all. He directly pulled the bolt of the gun and pointed the pitch-black muzzle at the independent leader's head. The war horses under him also cooperated and neighed with murderous aura.

The independent leader realized that something was wrong and did not dare to speak anymore. He knelt on the ground with his head in his hands.

The captain of the guard winked at his companion. The two soldiers dismounted, pushed away the crowd with suspicion, and tied the independent leader's hands in a familiar way, dragged them to the horse's back.

The captain of the guard glanced at the unpredictable masses, opened a parchment with the logo of the Yingweide family, and said sternly: "The statement of the Anti-Secession Law of the Grand Duke of Yingweide is now announced. From now on, crackdowns will be carried out in Dawn City. No independent slogans are allowed in all public places! Any remarks that show independence are illegal! Any gathering of more than 20 people without declaration is illegal! Any provocation against the Anti-Secession Law is illegal! Neighbors can supervise and report each other. Violators are arrested by the Grand Duke Guard, and those who resist will be shot on the spot!"

A brave young man was a little dissatisfied. Under the brainwashing propaganda, he was passionate and shouted loudly: "Why do you do this? We have the right to pursue freedom! We want to meet the Grand Duke and let him give an explanation!"

All the soldiers of the Grand Duke Guard looked dark after hearing this, and their eyes were erratic.

Grand Duke...

...

Grand Duke Yingweid was in a bad condition. His illness was getting worse and worse. At first it was just a minor illness, at most it was a cough. However, it didn't take long to start to have a fever and was weak all over.

The medical officer was originally diagnosed with typhoid fever, but prescription of various antibiotics was useless. For this reason, several medical officers were executed by gunfire. Later, the cube medical supplies transported from a special plane to relieve the condition of the Grand Duke. But strangely, the Grand Duke's condition had improved not long after it improved, and it was constantly recurring.

After trying various methods and treatment failed, the medical officers realized that perhaps this is not a simple disease, but an age-based aging that everyone will face.

The Grand Duke is almost 80 this year. Those drugs that work incisively on young soldiers are only less than 5% effective in the elderly. They can continue to extend the Grand Duke's lifespan with expensive cube drugs, which may allow him to live for another 5 to 10 years, but ageing is incurable. If an individual becomes old and dies.

This was nothing at all. At the age of Grand Duke Yingwei, he had long regarded aging indifferently and could face it calmly. However, he was very sick and all kinds of urgent business matters broke out at this joint point. Adam was still lobbying at the headquarters of the Battle of the Sea. He had no one to rely on and had to work overtime with his seriously ill body.

"Cough cough cough..." Grand Duke Yingwei covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughing and panting, so that the signature on the document was wrong.

Zisu, who was taking care of the Grand Duke, took the handkerchief. When he saw the scarlet marks on it, Zisu felt panic and realized that the Grand Duke's health was very bad. However, in order not to make the Grand Duke worry, she still put the handkerchief in a basin quietly, washed off the coughed blood, prepared a new handkerchief for the Grand Duke, and at the same time, she softly advised: "Duke, you haven't closed your eyes all night, so you should rest for a while."

The grand duke shook his head, continued to review the documents, and muttered: "I can't rest. Luoyou will be coming tomorrow. I must 'tidy up' Fuxiao City. Some things are not good for him to see."

Zi Su mistakenly thought that Grand Duke Yingweide was talking about issues such as hygiene, so she advised: "Da Duke, Luo You won't care about these."

Grand Duke Yingweid read countless people and immediately knew that Zi Su did not understand what he meant. He did not continue the topic. He just said silently: "Zi Su, I have been pretty good to you in the past two years, right?"

To be fair, after Duke Yingweid replaced Marquis Charles as the ruler of Dawn City, Zisu was never bullied again. So no matter whether it was Duke Yingweid's plan to win people's hearts or anything else, at least at this point, Zisu was very grateful to Dadu. As soon as she bowed, she said sincerely: "Duke has been very good to me in the past two years, Zisu must remember it in his heart."

The older a person, the more he is, the more he likes to talk to others, and no one wants to bring his own scheming to the grave.

Grand Duke Yingwei shook his head with a wry smile and sighed, "If you are smart enough, you should have guessed that I treat you well because you and Luo You are close. I want to bring your relationship closer to him by giving you."

After hearing this, Zi Su's heart accelerated. Unexpectedly, his mind was seen through, so he could only lower his head and wait for his hair to fall.

"But one thing, I want to tell you that when I said I wanted to accept you as my adopted daughter, in addition to wanting to have a nepotism with Luo You, I also have my true intentions." After reviewing a document, I supported the chair with both hands and let myself sit down. I looked at Zi Su and smiled deeply, "Maybe because of the influence of the commander-in-chief, I always wanted a daughter, and I hope she can be as good as Brigadier General Novena. Later I heard that in the 7th year of the Dawn defense battle, you killed the Federal nobles in order to protect your sister. As the Federal Duke, I was not angry at all about this, but appreciated that you are a good girl and very brave."

Halfway through the words, Grand Duke Yingweid's smile slowly disappeared. He shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself: "Hey, but what's the use of saying it now? I'm not far from death... Cough! Cough cough cough..."

Seeing that Grand Duke Yingweide began to cough again and coughed up a lot of blood, Zi Su felt nervous and hurried forward and patted Grand Duke on the back, and shouted anxiously: "Come here! Come here!"

The door was opened soon, but it was not the medical officer who came in, but Patch. When he saw that Grand Duke Yingweid vomited blood, his expression suddenly stopped and he rushed over with a cry and shouted: "Father!!!"
