Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and looked at the silent middle-aged man. Finally, he restrained his complex emotions.
Man is such a strange creature. Even if the planned thing happens, it is still very difficult to really accept it. People always expect things to develop in a better direction, but where can life be so easy and satisfactory?
After the end of this meeting, the new humanity diplomatic mission rushed out and enthusiastically condemned the "reshimia" civilization and asked it to withdraw from the Embassy of the new human civilization at the Dyson ball joint meeting. The final result was a failure.
The vast majority of civilizations support it verbally, but they don't take action at all. They just look on coldly.
10 days later, the leading diplomat Yang Fan stepped off the ship. He touched his head and suddenly felt that it was hard to talk and shoot.
On the stage, he complained to a bunch of aliens that his territory was occupied. At the beginning, he first stated his inherent power, and then shouted abuse, which was funny and oppressive
What's all this!
"Failed, Lao Yang!"
When Zhang Yuan saw him, he asked with a bitter smile.
"... it's strange not to fail! Scold a few words on your mouth, how can you grab back your territory! You think these interstellar civilizations are philanthropists? Do interstellar charity? " Lao Yang shook his head. "Don't count on diplomats for what generals can't get on the battlefield."
As soon as these diplomats returned to China, all senior officials gathered again in the large conference room of the departure.
"Let me talk about the current form..." Lao Yang cleared his throat and recovered his composure. "In fact, we are not the only civilization that has been bullied."
He briefly introduced the political struggle among the three major forces. Six medium-sized forces began to form a new alliance, and some small forces are becoming the grass on the wall
In this state, a set of complex interstellar rules are formed.
"Therefore, each civilization is sending its own chess pieces to constantly test and provoke. If a certain two forces can't help provoking and a war breaks out, other civilizations can benefit."
"And this is the situation we are facing..."
"Three months ago, a large transport force of a fourth civilization was attacked by an antimatter missile while transporting goods to Dyson ball! Then, a class IV civilization called Comoros was attacked by several parties... "
"Whether this attack is true or false is difficult for us to identify. Maybe it's just a fabricated excuse..."
"Two months ago, senior generals of two civilizations were assassinated when they met. One side was alive, but the other side was dead..."
"So there was a huge contradiction between the two civilizations, one after another accusing the other of launching the assassination."
"So far, we can only hear some gossip. What's the truth? Our eyes are black..."
It's not that diplomats are incompetent, but - there is no channel to investigate this information. Launch spy satellites? Or put a password in the alien system? You're kidding!
People can only go to joint meetings to get a general idea of what happened to these civilizations.
"Fortunately, we do not have many intersections with the outside world and are not involved in various disputes."
Zhang Yuan was sweating. The situation in this damn place is really complicated... Every step is like walking on thin ice!
The trouble encountered by mankind is just a small trouble!
After understanding the basic situation, we started the second stage of the agenda.
Captain Feng cleared his throat and took the lead in saying: "... First of all, a simple judgment is that the occupation of part of our territory by the rahimian civilization is actually a test of mankind by the forces behind it."
"Unfortunately, we don't even know who is provoking us."
"This temptation will be more and more serious. Until we completely occupy our land. "
"The other side believes that if we want to touch this Dyson ball, we probably won't give up our interests in this regard. If there are other hidden forces behind us, we may jump out at this moment... "
"Therefore, the previous judgment is basically correct."
Li Zhendong suddenly said, "why don't we just declare and give up this Dyson ball territory directly! Let the civilization that wants to touch this territory bite the dog together? "
Zhang Yuan shook his head: "the success rate is very low! At this time, it is obviously impossible for us to give up this land. Aliens are not fools. They are aimed at us, not other civilizations. "
"Taking the lead in swallowing these small fish is a consensus among big chess players."
"... and an extra piece of Dyson's land is of little use to them. Our land is isolated, and there are no special buildings around it. It's useless to take it. The probability of dog biting is very low. "
"On the other hand, we issued this statement. Maybe the rahimian civilization will occupy all its territory immediately."
"At that time, we don't even have a reason to condemn each other... We gave up ourselves. How can we condemn? Now it's good to scold! "
What Zhang Yuan said is indeed reasonable. There are no functional buildings in the territory of new mankind, and the strategic value is limited.
Diplomat Lao Yang sighed and said, "however, in the short contact, some civilizations are trying to win over us. For example, the Rambler alliance next door also negotiated with us for a while. They hope to win over us. "
Captain Feng asked, "what do you say?"
"Start with scientific and technological exchanges, increase mutual trust, and then expand exchanges... The basic process is like this."
"As long as we are willing to pay a little price, some amoeba points or technologies they don't have. They will help us speak out and take back these territories. "
"Rambler" is a very powerful political force that can not be ignored. The captain's lady frowned and was judging whether there was a bigger trap behind the conditions of the "Walker".
Lao Yang stood up and said, "according to our current situation, do we need to rely on this rambler alliance to make false promises for a period of time?"
"If we don't take any action, within two months, the territory above Dyson ball will be surrounded by other civilizations. In a year or two, the starry sky may become chaotic. First, some neutral little chess players will be excluded... "
"Or the outbreak of proxy war, these are possible."
Zhang Yuan looked at the information at hand, not to look at the starry sky. In fact, according to the current situation, the proxy war has begun.
Big forces do not fight directly. On the contrary, small chess pieces have fierce disputes and various contradictions and conflicts.
"What's the current situation..."
First of all, he still doesn't think it's a good thing to expand exchanges with the ramblers around him.
From the most malicious point of view, people do not know whether the rahimian civilization occupying human land is a pawn of the "wanderer"!
If the other party sent the rahimian civilization to occupy it, and mankind foolishly jumped into the trap, it would be asking for trouble, being sold and counting the money for the other party!
"Cough... It's not impossible."
Secondly, the so-called scientific and technological exchange is actually nothing to communicate, because the "Walker" is a very old and powerful level 4 interstellar civilization, and has begun to explore the science and technology of level 5 civilization.
In addition to human perception of magnetic field, what else is worth coveting?
Yes, the other side is stronger than the new human civilization in all aspects, including military, science and technology, population and so on.
Will the other party give human technology for nothing and let people take advantage of it? Of course not!
Why do they form gangs here and seize Dyson ball? On the one hand, Dyson ball produces a lot of antimatter energy. On the other hand, it is likely to be the practice of "cosmic governance"!
