“It’s been a while since you came here.”
Nikolai muttered.
“Why is my brother trembling since morning?”
“Don’t play around.”
“Hey, be honest, what did you do yesterday?”
“Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! What a mess!”
“Hey, is this the reaction you get when you get stabbed by something?”
“I didn’t!”
“Uh-huh, yes, you didn’t even go that far, did you?”
“okay!”
“Then where did you go? kiss?”
“Do you really want to get a butt kick? Shall I send you to Antarctica to fight the remnants of the Nazis?”
“Did Lef go there?”
“…….. really?”
“Do you believe that? sick.”
Shortly after, Princess Maria Rose had to watch the fist fight between the two archdukes of Russia in the morning.
“I’m not even tired… Brothers?”
It’s true that they’re relatives anyway, and unless it’s in a public place, the title “brother” was chosen according to the saying that we should call them comfortably while we see each other often.
“No, this guy makes you look bad in the morning.”
“Well, yesterday, the two of us went into the tower and the atmosphere looked good, so I just asked where we went. Was it something to react so sensitively?”
“Nothing happened…. Wait, did you see that?”
“Oh… you mean something?”
“It’s all we talked about!”
“Anyway, it’s too late, so even with the condition that Victor doesn’t reveal his identity and doesn’t spend money, he could make a woman he met for the first time do everything else if he gave him only two hours to talk seriously.”
“What, and can you?”
“I am the spectator and narrator of this one comedy, Hamlet’s Horatio, Romeo and Juliet’s Brother Lawrence, and Ariel of the Tempest.”
“Girl is a bountiful year.”
“So, what did Romeo talk about with Juliet?”
“It’s just… it doesn’t matter!”
“A story about the past? Or talking about the future? Isn’t he or both?”
He shut his mouth as if he would never answer, and closed his eyes as if he would not even read his eyes.
Then I remembered what happened last night.
In fact, when I was told not to think of elephants, the first thing that came to my mind was humans, and the more I tried to ignore my younger brother who was scratching next to me, I couldn’t help but think of it.
I just saw the stars.
I saw a distant universe.
Scotland’s clear skies left no trace of the fire that once covered it.
A shooting star passed through the clear night sky.
He has seen the sky since childhood.
what is there
Is there an end to that high and high sky?
The theory has been learned. I also learned what the world looked like…
But it was almost instinct to want to see the sky above.
So I learned to fly an airplane. But it was difficult to be satisfied with that.
Beyond the sky used as a battlefield for human beings, I wanted to step into that infinite space.
told the story
The sky is so high that humans cannot breathe. Hundreds of kilometers from Earth, where there is no sound, no air pressure, no oxygen, there is an extreme daily temperature difference.
But that’s why it stimulates his adventurous spirit.
‘A long time ago, my father and I went to a science fair. There were also rockets.’
‘Your Majesty’s orders are more. Carrying a man, bringing him all the oxygen and water and food to drink, flying high in space, so far away, to a place where gravity doesn’t work, and flying farther to land on the moon, on Mars, and one day humanity will cradle. so you can leave.’
Stories I had never heard of anywhere, but my father told me.
The moon has a layer of ice, and so does Mars.
Increase the pressure on Mars, create water, increase the temperature, plant plants, and then build colonies.

My father said it was absolutely impossible while he was alive, and he wondered if it would be possible to make the first shovel in our generation, but why wouldn’t my heart be racing?
Each story he picked up as a child made the boy’s heart race like crazy.
And I still haven’t given up on that dream.
because he was still young
I wanted to go out into space for the first time and leave my name and immortal footprints in the world… It wasn’t until then.
Time… Weapons will rust, plants will cover debris, the pyramids will one day fall, leave footprints on the moon, and one day a meteoroid will erase them. After a longer period of time, the oil fields will be full again, and the continent will not be in its former position.
However, I just wanted to go. I wanted to see clearly with my own two eyes.
just talked about it I swear I didn’t go any further than that.
“So you want to tell me?”
“Turn it off.”
But I have no obligation to explain that to that disgusting half-brother.
That rotten bastard… He smells and tries to bite him, saying he looks like a crow that saw a corpse.
‘Not a shark that smells blood.’
In the end, Nikolai, annoyed, rolled up the newspaper next to him and slapped it on his brother’s forehead.
Of course, the little brother who rolled from the electric wire didn’t get crushed just by hitting him with the newspaper.
“uh? take it?”
“If you don’t read it, give it to me.”
“Hey, you can’t read because you’re bothering me.”
“I had no intention of reading from the beginning, did you usually read newspapers or listen to radio broadcasts?”
“What did you say.”
Nikolai opened the newspaper again.
“It’s a war criminal trial.”
“what do you think about it?”
“It is necessary. But will it work right now?”
“why?”
Nikita pricked the newspaper with the tip of her finger.
“They said an American base had been attacked.”
“It has nothing to do with us, isn’t it their business?”
“No, the US military was attacked in South China, and the US government withdrew its troops from each country and demobilized them on the premise of a short-term decisive battle.
“therefore?”
“Is that the sole cause of those who have a grudge against the US military, or did the warlords of North China move because of the US that supports other warlords and continues to attack North China? I think the latter.”
“You mean the warlords will keep pushing in their forces?”
“I’m not going to do it openly, because my father knows that there are limits to protecting him, so he will only bring in tails that are ready to be cut.
“under.”
“Guerillas cross the border at will, but the US can’t pursue them? Of course, bombs will be dropped hard, but this fight won’t end in 10 or 20 years. The best way to fight guerrilla is to be like your father.”
All those who resist are killed, the loyal ones are used as hounds, the loyal ones remain vigilant, and the civilians most likely to be guerrilla-friendly are thrown into the easy-to-monitor camps.
As a result, the guerrillas are easily annihilated as they have to fight an enemy who is equally familiar with the terrain in an environment without civilians as a shield to hide them. If necessary, tear gas and even poison gas are lavished on them.
In the long run, civilians who will die fighting guerrillas also die far less. The casualties are greatly reduced on both sides at the cost of civilians’ slight inconvenience.
It was roughly that kind of logic, and it worked in Chechnya.
A wild army of Chechen loyalists, and a tactic of sweeping away hiding places or ambush places with all kinds of massive firepower, separating civilians from guerrillas, and collecting weapons.
As they united, those who resisted in Chechnya were literally crushed in an instant.
But can the US do the same in China?
“Maybe even if we build a camp, people will not be able to go crazy?”
“Are you thinking of using such a strategy in the first place?”
It can’t be. On the contrary, it is a strategy that is difficult to adopt in a democratic country and the more hungry the people are.
“The masses are the people who hate the fact that their own army executed a guerrilla caught on the spot while not paying attention to the fact that a great famine, in which a thousand people die of hunger every day, is coming abroad, just because they are not wearing military uniforms. The media are bastards. A country that does not cut off all the hands and tongues of journalists will never win a war. That doesn’t mean we win 100%, though.”
In the original history, during World War II, the Allied Powers also controlled press. In the Vietnam War, the Lunar New Year Offensive was tactically a great defeat for the Vietcong, who had completely castrated their strategic capabilities, but they won the war by having only one picture published in an American newspaper.
Flimsy human rights, flimsy compassion, and flimsy freedom destroy entire communities. Freedom and indulgence must be distinguished, and the government must have the ability to silence and even bury the indulgence of the media.
Journalists who work hard just to increase the number of copies sold and one more view are the pests and trash of society.
You don’t have to lie to the people, but you don’t need to tell too much either.
“It’s always the poorly known things, the assholes who think they’re smart, are going to cause problems. If we go back to the war criminal trial earlier, the Emperor is almost certain to be sentenced to death, though Lev told us.”
“why?”
“There are so many evidences of crimes against humanity, and even if the emperor was excluded from carrying out the war, as long as he committed a terrible crime in the unit under his direct control, it would be impossible to fix it, and his neck would hang. .”
“…if my uncle was still alive, would he have been there?”
“It may not be. Maybe not.”
Edward VIII was lucky.
“The King of England has more powers than I thought, unlike us.”
Interestingly, the Russian Empire, which appears to be a tyrannical monarchy, has a constitutional monarchy as well, and the monarch has less power than expected.
On the other hand, in the case of England, there is no separation of powers at all and the power of the king is enormous. As it is a parliamentary system, the executive and legislative branches are one, but there is no Supreme Court and the nobility, that is, the Senate, also serves as the Supreme Court. Even in the Russian Empire, at least, there is a separate court. It was only in the 21st century that a separate Supreme Court was created in England, although it is ridiculous.
The current Empress Olga’s legal powers are the supreme commander of the military, the legislative power to propose laws to Parliament, the veto power to veto laws, and the inviolability of the body.
And Duma interprets the law, interpreting that her husband, Mikhail, has temporarily assigned these rights, or at least can exercise them jointly.
In addition, the right to tax, that is, the right to collect taxes, which should normally be the Duma, that is, the exclusive authority of the parliament, has been effectively taken away, and inspections are carried out through Ohrana.
This made him an absolute power, but knowing that this concentration of power was never a good thing, he decided he had to disperse it before he died.
And to be honest, even the princes who were nominated for the successor agreed in their hearts.
It is said that with great power comes great responsibility, but with great power comes hard work.
The sons who saw their father being abused to a level where it was questionable how many hours a day he slept, of course, wanted to live by my name. Father, they are not ordinary humans, but they are human, and there are many things that they want to do. It goes without saying that no matter how greedy for power, he did not want to die after living as a part of the government for the rest of his life.
The father is a human being who uses himself as a tool with everyone else, but they don’t want to. I couldn’t.
