419 Forced Conscription

In the leisure club of Tai Ping, Commander Xiao Yu of the Universe Army, comfortably clad in oversized shorts, was sitting in a sauna room. A holographic screen was on in the sauna, broadcasting news. Sitting next to Xiao Yu were two of his comrades, Lai Zhicun and Ji You.

As Ji You watched the news, he held a glass of wine in one hand and a cigarette in the other, and pointed meaningfully at the TV, saying, "The civilizations of the Bi Star Cluster have been easily manipulated by our Chancellor during the applause. First, he drew their attention with the boundary division tactic, then threw out the trade permit, and finally coaxed the twelve civilizations to stand with us against the three major slaveholders."

Lai Zhicun commented indifferently from the side, "There's no trick to it, it's simply a matter of power."
