Chapter 393 Chapter 9.83 A Man Without a King

Six months later, Dong Shenzhou still maintained an optimistic attitude.

Lizhou has now reached a new peace agreement with Nanyang, and local specialties such as kangaroo meat have been transported to Shenzhou by sea (in this time and space, the Wan Yao Jing records that kangaroo meat has the effect of protecting the fetus).

The wars in other continents of the world have also gradually begun to subside.

Since this world war, the economic and food crises in the world have been resolved.

Before the 85th year of the Qin Tongli calendar, big news such as: "The Amazon has no rainfall for six consecutive months, and the forest fire cannot be extinguished" and "Colombian drug dealers broke into the presidential palace and shot dozens of people" are no longer in any newspaper headlines.

It's not that these problems have been solved, but that these areas that are not adapted to the modern industrial age and are still in the remnant of tribes have become chess pieces that can be manipulated at will.

War is a test of mobilization. Even the worst modern rulers are more efficient in conscripting able-bodied men than feudal labor.

In the post-industrial era, a large number of regions that lack governance capacity but pretend to be countries have been wiped out along with ethnic groups and countries in the era of hot wars between powers.

And, the public scholars who used to make a fuss in these non-industrialized regions, along with the ordinary people they used to despise, lost their motherland to be loyal to as the pattern of the world war stabilized, and eventually became an existence that was not even as good as the third-class citizens.

In this era, the second-class citizens are the local families that control the business power in the defeated countries. The third-class citizens are the sellers and conquerors, and the completely mechanically transformed auxiliary army.

Western Shenzhou is the biggest anomaly in this world war, taking the resources and people that were originally controlled by the global monopoly business groups away from the old system.

Such changes have reduced the resources and population that the business groups in the East and the West can compete for in this world war.

When the powers controlled by the business groups are extremely hungry, they will not allow vassals like pets to occupy the resources they need.

Latin America, Africa, these underdeveloped regions, have now become "free lands" where post-war merchants and private individuals can buy everything, including the lives and dignity of the weak.

As for Western Shenzhou, its strategy is too stable and its foundation is too deep. In the post-war competition, it will dominate both military and economic. If the current global East-West merchants and private individuals cannot survive, it is very likely that one will collapse first in a few decades.

In this way, capitalism has returned to the pioneering spirit of the Age of Exploration, and it is necessary to use modern technology to redefine the "undeveloped" new areas.

Of course, the cruelty of the Age of Exploration has also been picked up!

In the morality of the Great Navigation three hundred years ago, it was possible to treat the crew as consumables, and kick them into the sea to feed the sharks when they were sick.

In this new technological era, the mode of cyber machinery sealing living people as puppets has quietly prevailed in all non-Shenzhou areas. Not to mention the European Union, Shengyang, and Edenia, including the Dashi, they are also secretly building the "Assassin" mechanical fusion force.

Eastern Shenzhou is currently competing with Western Shenzhou, competing fiercely in terms of orthodoxy and morality. They cannot learn the frenzy of the barbarians, but they cannot accept the current simplicity of Western Shenzhou. They hope that their own set of methods can still be useful at the moment, which is quite similar to the situation of Duke Xiang of Song who lost his country due to his benevolence and righteousness.

The Arctic Circle Campaign is the only way for the eastern coast of Shenzhou to prove "self-restraint and restoration of rituals".

Compared with the optimism of the people, the court is concentrating on the battlefield in the Arctic Ocean.

In Jianye, Fu Youji is teasing koi in a standard oriental garden, tearing the pale pink poppy petals into pieces and sending them into the pond.

Note: Yingsu has existed in Shenzhou since ancient times, but the addictive drug strain is the selection and breeding route of the ancient Tianzhu region. Shenzhou has been cultivating ornamental flowers since the Tang Dynasty, and the toxicity has been decreasing over thousands of years.

The local ornamental species were notorious for the toxic strains during the century of humiliation in the main world, and were eliminated as the world corrected the chaos.

But in this time and space, these flower-growing ladies and those poisonous relatives are completely separated. Therefore, contemporary Shenzhou botanists also have an allusion: beautiful women are in China, poisonous plants are in the barbarians. It is equivalent to the upgraded version of "growing in the south of the Huai River is orange, growing in the north of the Huai River is bitter orange".

~

Contemporary Taoists in East Shenzhou are on the defensive against the current "Hua Yi debate" in West Shenzhou. Many rationalists have put forward the theory of Shenzhou's specialness: the private business practices of Western Shenzhou that are unrighteous are alarmist.

These rationalists believe that Shenzhou civilization is different from the barbarians. The evil of the barbarians' resources lies in the fact that they have never been taught by saints. Shenzhou's merchants and Confucian culture will merge into a model with Shenzhou characteristics, and the pursuit is to connect the world.

As an old man in his seventies or eighties, Fu Youji fully agrees with this "beautiful women are in China, poisonous plants are in the barbarians" argument emotionally.

But he knows that when he cannot deny the other party's strength, he has to find some highlights for the tradition he represents.

This is why the doctrine of the mean can tenaciously defend against external shocks, and of course it is also the reason why "unless you reach the end of your rope, you can't eradicate the evils."

~

Of course, as a reformer of local civilization, Wei Keng is very familiar with this kind of sophistry.

It is useless to choose the correct answer directly without trying all the mistakes. Shenzhou's civilization is too long, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The advantage is that no matter how low it is, it can find experience from history. The disadvantage is that when change is needed, those knowledgeable scholars can always find various scriptures and books to hypothesize questions and ask questions, delaying the time of change. (Similar to the parliament of Edenia, in order to delay the advancement of bills, they began to speak on the stage for dozens of hours to increase the difficulty. All intellectuals in the world are the same.)

So in Shenzhou, under the circumstances that these scholars who want to be conservative keep making trouble and constantly looking for loopholes in laws and governance, Shenzhou civilization always suspects that the route that has not been tried may be correct, so it follows the philosophy of moderation and moves towards those routes.

So even though Wei Keng had overturned the imperial power of Shenzhou a long time ago, he was still waiting for an opportunity to completely eradicate the roots.

The perspective returns to Fu Youji. The nano field in the garden opened, and a young officer walked in.

Hu Dongfei is an officer in the Northern Corps, under the command of Bai Huanling. He is an eyeliner and a qualified person sent by the Shenzhou court to Bai Huanling. He was born in northern Hunan and belongs to the southeastern faction. Of course, he was not arranged in the core area of ​​Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and now he is sent to the bitter and cold Arctic battlefield to endure.

Fu Youji has a favor for Hu Dongfei, so this line is still stable for him.

Fu Youji read Hu Dongfei's information, his eyes were locked, and the situation of the Arctic battle took a sharp turn for the worse this month. Eden suddenly invested ten times the number of armored forces. Although Bai Huanling's troops firmly grasped the initiative of the battle in key areas, it is now very difficult.

Fu Youji raised his head and asked Hu Dongfei: "Have you arranged everything for your family?"

Hu Dongfei was stunned: "It has been arranged. My wife and children have moved out of my hometown, and my brothers and sisters have also said hello. Let them go to Nanyang to do business."

Fu Youji paused and said: "Don't go to Nanyang, go to Qinchuan."

Hu Dongfei didn't know what this old boss wanted to say.

Fu Youji: "Nanyang is still a barbarian land after all, without civilization, and although the western part of Shenzhou shouts today: no king or father is needed. But in their actions, they value the country and the people, which is the foundation of all Chinese."

Hu Dongfei: "Sir, is Shenzhou really going to follow the path of the "co-governance of the people" in the west?"

Fu Youji said helplessly: "In modern times, the Guan family is indeed unable to produce a sage king. In fact, we have long been kingless. We form cliques for personal gain, but are unwilling to bear the bad reputation of being a traitor. We pretend to be loyal, but are jealous of talents. Alas~ You go back to the north and remind Bai Huanling appropriately to bring back tens of thousands of soldiers from Shenzhou."

After Hu Dongfei left.

Fu Youji opened another electronic document, which showed that Western Shenzhou had frequently conducted ballistic missile exercises between the Tianzhu Ocean and North Asia in the past six months. Although he was not clear about the specific content of these exercises, there was no doubt that they were to cover the situation in the Beibing Ocean of Shenzhou.

Fu Youji looked at the photo, where more than a dozen magnificent super-giant rockets were being transported along the railway line.

From such a large project, he felt the powerful force.

Fu Youji: "The king's aura is still in the inner land of Shenzhou."
