Chapter 2867 Great God Civilization
Equip the Earth with wings that can reach the speed of light, allowing them to go deep into the universe. The curvature engine is a new thing that humans have never played with. In this universe, only civilizations that reach the speed of light have a chance to survive.
As powerful as the dinosaurs are, as long as they do not reach the speed of light, they can only be strong in low-end civilizations.
As the military strategists say, only when you are invincible can you seek victory. First of all, you must ensure your own survival. If you cannot even ensure your own survival, you can only roll around in the low-end civilization circle forever.
The dinosaurs are not stupid. They have also tried to develop the speed of light, but the speed of light cannot be developed just because you want to develop it. Therefore, their way to be invincible is to hold the thigh of the great god civilization. As long as the great god civilization is willing to be their umbrella, then they are also invincible. However, facts have proved that once the dinosaurs encounter a crisis, the great god civilization may not provide help.
Therefore, strengthening oneself and developing the speed of light is the only way for civilization to move towards the high end.
The opportunity for low-end civilization to survive in the low-end is to have a low-cost distribution relationship and a culture that maintains the distribution relationship. As long as this set of things is available, even the weakest civilization can exist for a long time, even if this civilization looks very ignorant, it will not disappear.
In the universe, the speed of light is invincible, because if you can't win, you can still escape. As long as you can escape, there is always a chance to endure hardships. As long as you enter the speed of light, it will be difficult for the great civilization to catch up. In this way, civilization can find a way to revive.
Only civilizations that survive are qualified to talk about the future. Low-cost distribution methods and the speed of light are the bottom line for survival in harsh environments.
The research on the curvature engine is going smoothly. The problem is how to reasonably push the earth. If only a part is pushed, the earth will be shattered. It cannot be laid out like a planetary engine, and must be re-studied.
At the same time, the living environment of humans should also be improved this time. Look at the dinosaur ring belt, a completely artificial city, but it can also have a comfortable living environment, which is worth learning from humans.
"We can also install a ring belt around the earth, and then fix it on the earth's equator with a strong interaction pile, install the engine on the ring belt, and let the ring belt drive the earth to accelerate." Zhenli Dingyi proposed a method, not to install the engine on the earth, but to install a "belt" on the earth, and press the engine on the belt.
With strong interaction materials, even a cable as thick as a little finger can pull the earth. So there is no need to worry about the material problem at all.
Everyone thinks it makes sense. It is indeed not safe to press the engine on the earth. It is better to make a ring belt.
So we continued to improve this plan, and finally decided to do a small experiment first, find a meteorite to make a small ring belt, and see the effect. If it is feasible, finally give the earth a large ring belt.
A very rigorous scientific spirit, not just relying on the brain, but relying on practice. Accumulate data through experiments.
The plan is set, just wait for the superhuman to seize the control room. For the stubborn dinosaurs, humans have made a comprehensive strategic deployment and must take them down.
A dinosaur who asked for help finally sent a distress signal to the Great God Civilization, but did not receive any response. Although they often pay tribute to the Great God Civilization, the Great God Civilization is not the savior of the dinosaurs. The Great God Civilization accepts the tribute of the dinosaurs, which means it agrees to trade with the dinosaurs, and has no other purpose.
It is the same as the Tang Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, and Qing Dynasty accepting tribute. It is a kind of trade activity. Paying tribute means recognizing trade and being able to trade. Unless there is another Great God Civilization bullying the dinosaurs, there is no reason to intervene in the disputes of the dinosaurs.
The reason is also very simple. It is normal to fight in the universe. It is difficult to judge right and wrong. What the Great God Civilization has to do is to maintain its own system, not to protect the civilization within the system. The dinosaurs will die, and there will be civilizations such as lizards and dragons to supplement them in the future. As long as the system does not collapse, there will definitely be people willing to join.
If the two systems of two Great God Civilizations collide, then they have to take action. For example, the war between the Qing Dynasty and the powers must be fought, because if Cixi does not declare war, the tribute system of the Qing Dynasty will completely collapse. At that time, all the surrounding countries will turn to the powers, and the Qing Dynasty will be surrounded and isolated, and the situation will be very bad.
Unfortunately, the Qing Dynasty did not win in the end, so the situation became worse and worse. It can only be said that weakness is the original sin, and the correct strategy can also fail. The end result is that the countries around the Central Plains will all turn to the great powers in the next hundred years.
The so-called tribute trade is also very simple. The Central Plains regards the surrounding small countries as barbarians, and the small countries regard the Central Plains as the source of legitimate ruling rights. At the same time, they regard the Central Plains as a fat sheep and exchange their own local specialties for various trade goods. Of course, this is a tribute from the nobles, and it must be a thin return. The so-called gift of a thousand miles of goose feathers is light, but the sentiment is heavy. This is about tribute. The barbarians sent goose feathers, and the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty also had to return generous gifts. The reason is also very simple. The nobles opened up the trade routes, and there would be merchants from the people coming to trade. At that time, the private trade would not send goose feathers from a thousand miles away, and you would have to pay more.
At the same time, in order to get gifts, the barbarians would also accept a set of systems in the Central Plains.
But the methods of the great powers are different. They are all industrial civilizations. In Europe, "others store grain while I store guns. Everywhere is my granary." One industrial country after another has military industry, because without military industry, they cannot protect themselves. However, military industry is not for food and drink, so it must be expanded. Therefore, the trade system of the great powers does not play the game of "sending goose feathers a thousand miles away". It is completely "I only understand the language of cannons." Whoever's cannon is not powerful enough has no right to speak.
In the eyes of the Central Plains, it is completely reasonable for the barbarians to fight each other and do some barbaric things, but the great powers will directly say that this is a symbol of barbarism and backwardness, and they want to bring civilization, so there is an excuse for war, and the cannons will beat the barbarians down.
The actions of the great powers are more barbaric than the barbarians. It is not said that killing people with cannons is more civilized than stabbing people with knives.
In short, the Qing Dynasty and the great powers must have a war, just to maintain their respective systems, whether it is a tribute system or an armed expansion system. In the end, the Qing Dynasty was defeated, and the tribute system collapsed. However, the defeat of the Qing Dynasty does not mean that the tribute system is not good. In fact, the tribute system was slowly evolved because the armed expansion of the Central Plains had reached its limit.
The Qing Dynasty was defeated because it no longer had a large-scale armed demand. To fight a small country, the existing armed forces were enough, and there was no need for strong ships and powerful guns.
In the West, it was just like raising a poisonous insect. Several industrial countries were crowded together, just like the countries in the Warring States Period who were reforming and strengthening themselves. They all tried their best to develop industry and make weapons. At first, they expanded outward, but when the expansion reached its extreme, they entered World War I, followed by World War II, which meant that the armed expansion of the great powers had reached a critical point. In the end, the great powers did not choose the tribute system, but upgraded to financial expansion.
The early stage of financial expansion was a bit like the tribute system, which was to invest money in small countries to develop industrial industries, which was a loss-making investment. Later, it was different. After the small countries made extra money, they had to harvest through finance. The means were also very simple, passing the parcel, the funds of the big countries were injected into the stock market and real estate market of the small countries, attracting the funds of the small countries to enter and buy, and when the funds of the small countries entered the crazy growing real estate and stock markets, the big countries threw away the things in their hands, and the people of the small countries took over, and the big countries' finances ran away with the people's money. Small countries without money could not continue to upgrade their industries, and could only continue to be cheap labor, but the problem was that the housing prices and stock markets were so high, and the cost of living was so high that low-end industries were not profitable and had to be transferred, and the small countries were in a half-dead state. The financial powers will continue to look for the next target of financial expansion.
In short, the Great God Civilization will not stand up for the dinosaurs. In their view, it is normal for a weak civilization to suffer from its own misfortunes. As long as the dinosaurs do not encounter other Great God Civilizations, they don't need to care. After all, the dinosaurs are barbarians. The attitude of this Great God Civilization is similar to the tribute system.
