The method of annexation is also quite simple.
Heavenly State and Earth State go without saying. Qiu Tu is originally the garrison commander of these two states, occupying the moral high ground, so he can arrange and adjust personnel as he pleases.
Except for positions at the Speaker level and above, which, from a legal standpoint, he cannot decide on his own.
For all other positions, including city executives, state parliament members, and vice speakers, he can almost make decisions with a single word.
In Dongye State and New State, although he doesn't have such sweeping legal authority,
the eight vice speakers of New State and Dongye State are: Tang Feifei, Rain Butterfly, Liu Xiongyuan, Dai Yukang, Yan Chen, Guo Huai, Ye Mingfeng, and Li Tingdong.
Out of the eight, Qiu Tu has four staunch supporters. Now, Yan Chen and Guo Huai are also leaning towards Qiu Tu.
So of the eight, Qiu Tu now has six votes.
