Chapter 451: Crushing Strength

For things like ideas, the key lies in the power of interpretation. For example, the phrase "repaying grievances with virtue" is usually understood as the principle of life: Confucius taught us that if someone bullies you, you should influence him with love and tolerate with your heart He, we must convince others with virtue!

But in fact, Confucius was opposed to "repaying grievances with virtue". Confucius said: "Repay grievances with straightness, and repay virtue with virtue." It means that when others treat you with virtue, you need to repay others with virtue. To treat you, then you have to repay your grievances directly, that is, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

The reason why Confucius’ words were misinterpreted was the root cause of the needs of the feudal rulers. They hoped that the people would become obedient citizens who “repay grievances with virtue.” Only people who “repay grievances with virtue” would obediently obey their rule. The emperor was cruel and wanted to "repay grievances with virtue", the landlords exploited and "repayed grievances with virtues", and the Eight-Power Allied Forces attacked Beijing, but they still had to "repay grievances with virtues". of joy".

Now, the earth civilization has entered the interstellar era, and the ideas and concepts should also be changed. How to change? Of course, it is in line with the needs of the rulers, that is, according to the needs of Zhang Wei and others, to reinterpret traditional ideas and propose some new ideas for most people to accept.

Is the process difficult? Not difficult. Because the strength of the discourse is determined by the status of the discourser. For example, China’s reform and opening up has lifted more than 600 million people out of poverty over the past 30 years, which will be considered to have nothing to do with the progress of human rights. Tens of thousands of civilians were killed and millions displaced, and this massive violation of human rights in the 21st century is seen as a defense of human rights. For another example, Europe interpreted the greed and plunder of colonialism and imperialism as the spread of modern civilization. Why is this happening? The reason is simple. Western countries have been in a strong position for nearly two or three hundred years, and their discourse has naturally dominated.

At Zhang Wei's request, the Eternal Kingdom launched a new wave of thought, with a simple purpose: to "brainwash" the general public.

In the Radiant Star Field, the Pan-Radiance Alliance and the robots are fighting, while the Radiance Socialist Republic and the Radiance Federal Republic are recuperating.

Before I knew it, another ten years had passed.

In the past ten years, the situation in the Radiant Star Field has become worse and worse. Although the Pan-Radiance Alliance has an advantage in the war against robots, it has not been able to completely eliminate the robots, and as long as there is a robot lurking on a certain planet , It won't be long before another large army will be pulled out, which makes the Pan-Glory Alliance feel a headache. Correspondingly, the Glorious Socialist Republic and the Glorious Federal Republic have become a paradise, with no wars, no rebellious robots, and a prosperous life. Such a good life has attracted a large number of people from the Pan-Glory Alliance to immigrate here, and this place has entered a stage of explosive development, and its strength is slowly approaching that of the Pan-Glory Alliance.

As for the eternal kingdom, it is still developing rapidly at a speed that makes all vassal civilizations envious and jealous,

Whether it is territory, population or technology, there are major changes every year.

Especially the development of science and technology surprised Zhang Wei.

Thanks to the welfare of the population, the number of scientists in the Eternal Kingdom has exceeded the tens of billions mark. Although they are not as talented as Einstein and other great scientists, they are better than Einstein and other great scientists in many aspects by virtue of the biological computer implanted in the brain. Einstein is excellent. With so many great scientists, the development of science is of course rapid.

The most eye-catching is the breakthrough of space technology and gravity technology.

For a civilization, space technology is a watershed. Mastering basic space technology, such as warp drive, can become the overlord in the universe and occupy a huge territory. Able to ignore the vast cosmic space and expand its territory infinitely.

Earth civilization is a special case, because Zhang Wei has mastered the two technologies of warp drive and wormhole by relying on the great inventor system to open the plug-in, and the foundation is not solid. There is a price to be paid for shortcuts. However, this price is worthwhile, because space is one of the greatest mysteries in the universe, and it is also one of the most difficult technologies to develop. Many civilizations are trapped in this level and cannot break through. Because space is always around us, but we can't see it, and we can't measure it. In this case, we can hardly study it, unless there is an epoch-making genius.

Under normal circumstances, earth civilization may also be trapped by this problem, and cannot make any progress for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Scientists personally saw the space, measured the space, and obtained the parameters of the space. This allowed the space technology of the earth civilization to have a very high starting point at the beginning, and it developed rapidly. After laying a solid foundation, it entered the harvest period. A large number of theories and conjectures have been put forward, and some theories have entered the application stage, such as the space folding theory.

Wormhole technology applies the theory of space folding. However, wormhole technology has been proposed for decades, and this theory has no new applications. Until now, only a fledgling genius named Xu Ning combined space folding theory with curved Combined with the space distortion theory used by the high-speed engine, the space shield was designed.

Spaceships of earth civilization now use energy shields, which are composed of high-energy dense particles, which can defend against energy weapons such as laser cannons, as well as kinetic energy weapons such as rail guns, and the effect is not bad.

However, it also has a fatal flaw, that is, it has an upper limit of defense, and once it is set on fire or faced with a super powerful attack, it will be broken.

The space shield designed by Xu Ning is fundamentally different from the energy shield. It combines the theory of space folding and space distortion, and applies it in reverse. The purpose of space folding and space distortion is to shorten the distance and allow the spacecraft to Sailing faster than the speed of light, and the space shield designed by Xu Ning is to extend the distance.

According to Xu Ning's design, this space shield that wraps the spaceship is composed of 10 to 20 layers of twisted folding spaces, and each layer of folding spaces has a distance of 1 astronomical unit. When the enemy's attack lands When the space shield is on, it needs to travel through a distance of 10 to 20 astronomical units to attack the target. Even if it is a light-speed weapon, it takes 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel through 1 astronomical unit. It takes more than an hour, such a long time, the spacecraft has already left its original position!

Not only that, if the enemy has no research on space technology, even the position of the spaceship cannot be locked, because the space shield is essentially a twisted and folded space, it is equivalent to water, and the spaceship is equivalent to the fish in the water , and as we all know, the fish in the water that people see on the shore is not the same as the actual fish! In the same way, the position of the spacecraft observed by the enemy is also different from the actual position of the spacecraft!

It can be seen from this that the space shield is simply bombarding the sky.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the space shield passes the test, the strength of the Eternal Kingdom will be raised to a higher level, and it will have crushing strength against civilizations below the fifth level that have not mastered space technology.
