Chapter 325: Genetic Shackles
"Despite the efforts of the Imperial Fleet to save the fleet, only about 80 million people were saved in the four or five galaxies around the Salee system about 10 light-years, out of a total of 19.2 billion people.
The main reason is that the Cele people are too defensive of us and don't trust us at all, and perhaps the government of the Kingdom of Cele on the local planet also plays a role in obstruction.
Due to the short period of time, we have not been able to carry out our propaganda work in depth, which is also a big reason. ”
Zhuang Yun faced the senators and reported on the implementation of the plan to save the Celers.
Due to the widespread discussion and attention of the Celerian Rescue Plan in the Aeolian Empire, Liu Mingchuan felt that the Senate needed to control the rescue plan to avoid affecting the harmony within the Empire.
It was proposed to convene a meeting of the senators' group to listen to Zhuang Yun's face-to-face report.
"It seems that the Thales did what I expected, and they would not easily believe us. If you look at the data, there is even a planet where all the Cele people see us as enemies, and they always attack the Empire's salvation army, and in the end none of them escape. Wu Yumeng said with a long sigh.
"The situation that Madame had worried about before has appeared, and in the war, it is really difficult to be a good person. What happens to the rescue of the six major galaxies that we have occupied and some of the secondary galaxies that have not been occupied? Zhuang Yun said.
Zhang Wenhao shook his head and said, "Lao Zhuang, I still don't think there is any need to do rescue in the future." The two civilizations are at war with each other, and no one can believe that you are here to help.
Moreover, in the six major galaxies, we have liquidated many Celerians, and all Celerians who have memories and know about the live experiments of intelligent beings have been sentenced to death. Anyone who has participated in the persecution of his fellow earthmen will also be sentenced to death.
At least no one in these galaxies will believe us and evacuate with us, as for those secondary galaxies that have not yet been occupied, maybe they have already received some information, and they regard the empire as a vendetta, how can they listen to us to save them? ”
Sun Jing'an agreed: "Anyway, now that a group of people have been saved, and their conscience is okay, we don't have to force other Cele people anymore." ”
Phoenix suddenly said: "Our rescue fleet can go to the second-level planets that we have never been to, mainly to collect the corresponding biotechnology equipment and data centers.
In addition, the life expectancy of the Elle people is as long as 3,000 years, and we will rescue some Celers who left voluntarily, preferably more than 1,500 years old, so that we can obtain the corresponding blood samples, so as to make another breakthrough in the study of the life limit. ”
Liu Mingchuan nodded in agreement: "Well, I think the follow-up rescue operation is still based on obtaining the scientific and technological equipment and materials of the local Cele people."
We don't engage in genocide, but we must not repay grievances with virtue, so save people and let it be. ”
Zhang Wenhao said: "Well, this kind of rescue operation can still be done, originally we had to collect their scientific and technological equipment and technical information, this is our trophy."
In addition, since the Celes no longer have a capital system, the six first-level systems have also been captured by us. As a result, the secondary and even tertiary galaxies have become independent, and some galaxies may have passed information to each other through superspace-time communicators before they were destroyed by the expansion of the local universe.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Celers, they will think that it was our empire that used a weapon of destruction to deal a devastating blow to the star field on which they depended.
Their hatred for our empire will undoubtedly be deep, so I think the rest of the Cele would be better off letting them disappear in this catastrophe. ”
Zhuang Yun stopped talking and sighed slightly.
Sun Jingan frowned and said, "Wen Hao's consideration is also reasonable, although it sounds a little inhumane. However, the number of people we captured and rescued in Sale, which is now 150 million people, is hateful to us, and what should we do? ”
Liu Mingchuan also said solemnly: "Don't underestimate these 150 million people, they are all citizens of the fifth-level civilization, and they have a complete knowledge system in their minds, and they can still develop it over time."
Although we have done things to save now, we must learn lessons and keep up with the trend of interstellar civilization in the universe ideologically.
In many cases, two civilizations of similar rank are more likely to commit genocide. For example, the battle of the Shenmu Empire against the Xiantang civilization, such as the genocide of the Cele civilization against the Westminster civilization.
When the level difference is far away, there will be a matter of the weak attaching themselves to the strong, and the strong are not worried that the weak will surpass. ”
Zhuang Yun listened to Liu Mingchuan's words, and finally understood why he avoided answering about the genocide when he interrogated Solphis, and was a little stunned for a while, so he said: "What the prime minister said is very reasonable.
The Cele people carried out the genocide of the Westminster people because they feared that they would recover quickly, and if it were not for the corresponding live experiments, they might not even have retained the corresponding Westminster population.
It seems that the idea of a community with a shared future in the earth era is indeed inappropriate and even ridiculous in this universe.
In the universe, a failed civilization is eliminated and destroyed. Only those who are lucky and have fewer people can become a subordinate civilization of the strong and survive. ”
Wu Yumeng said: "If you want to stand tall for a long time in the universe, you must continue to develop science and technology and strive for the continuous improvement of the level of civilization, which is also the reason why the head of state has formulated an imperial system with science and technology as the core."
Let's discuss how to deal with and manage this part of the Celerians under control, shall we?
Currently on the Empire's frontier galaxy S113 in the direction of the Cele field, a total of 150 million Cele people have been placed there.
The original 10 million citizens of the empire have already migrated, and for the sake of security, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Police basically let a small number of clones and intelligent robots form the Planetary Affairs Administration to manage them.
It's just that in the future, how do we define them, whether they are captives or something else? ”
Liu Mingchuan thought silently, the internal planetary population management of the empire is all in charge of specific affairs, and the senators are in charge of major policies.
The Führer had no interest in this kind of internal affairs at all, and over the past 50 years there had been very few meetings of the elders in this internal affairs, but they had met regularly with scientists in various fields.
This is also the fact that the empire has completely digested and absorbed the relevant technologies of the Buzhibar civilization and the Yate civilization in 50 years, and has jumped from a fourth-level civilization to a fifth-level civilization.
In fact, many people have not yet adapted to this change, and many of their thoughts and practices are stuck in the fourth-level civilization stage, and even the idea of the Earth Age still exists in their bones.
Liu Mingchuan often worries about these things, because he understands that whether it is a civilization or a country, the increasingly disconnected thinking of the people from the times in which they live will have a huge counter-force on the development of civilization and the country.
At this meeting of the veteran group, since Li Chunfeng is currently leading scientists to study this terrible local cosmic expansion, he naturally cannot spare time to participate in the whole meeting.
However, although the conclusions are now reached, there are still remaining problems.
Thinking of this, Liu Mingchuan pressed a button on the table, called Li Chunfeng through the No. 1 intelligence, and said to everyone: "Minister Wu's question involves the disposal of the Sailers, let's listen to the Führer's opinion." ”
Not long after, a figure appeared in the conference room through a 3D projection.
"Hello Führer!" Seeing Li Chunfeng's projection, everyone got up and said hello.
Liu Mingchuan quickly explained the situation of the meeting and raised the problems encountered.
"Chunfeng, the veteran group believes that the next 'rescue plan' will be based on obtaining scientific and technological equipment and materials from the local planet, and saving people is just a matter of fate.
However, now that this part of the Cele people who have been captured or rescued, the number has reached about 150 million, and it may increase a little, because they have the knowledge system of the fifth-level civilization, so we are all worried about the situation of raising tigers. ”
Li Chunfeng couldn't help but smile and said, "It's my inconsiderate thinking that makes you worried." But your discussion is going well.
Since the establishment of the Aeolus Empire, it has only been 62 years, and it has not been long since it really entered the interstellar world, and many aspects of people's thoughts are still stuck in the age of the earth, including me, of course.
In the era of the earth, countries pay attention to humanitarianism between countries, and even rise to the height of a community with a shared future on the earth. However, in the interstellar era, the universe is vast and boundless, and life forms are diverse, so it is difficult for different life forms to reach a so-called community of destiny.
For example, we and the Brown Algae Life, the Gold Swallowing Beast, the Kunpeng Battleship, the Yate Civilization, and so on. Even the same carbon-based life, because of various differences, leads to either you die or I die.
But back to the issue of these Celes, don't be choked up, we actually have a way to limit the intelligence of carbon-based intelligent beings. ”
Zhang Wenhao couldn't help asking: "Restrictions on the intelligence of intelligent beings?" Führer, what do you mean by that? ”
Li Chunfeng said: "Intelligent organisms are genetically determined, so we can control them at the genetic level.
This aspect has been one of the focuses of Phoenix's research, and there have been some advances in the past. Phoenix, this is your specialty, you can briefly talk about it. ”
Phoenix nodded and replied: "In fact, it is to carry out some kind of modification at the genetic level of this group of Cele people under our control, which can not only limit their population growth, but even increase the gene lock, directly lock the wisdom genes of their race, thereby limiting their technological development."
In this way, their race will only become a dumping ground for the Empire's technological products, and if technology cannot develop, the population will grow slowly, and they will naturally gradually lose their threat to the Empire. ”
Phoenix's words made everyone's eyes light up, and Liu Mingchuan asked anxiously: "Phoenix, can you really increase the gene lock and lock their wisdom genes?" ”
"Of course, this is studied from the genes of our human beings on Earth, and it definitely works." Phoenix said.
Zhuang Yun was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help asking: "You mean, we earth humans have also been locked in wisdom genes?" ”
The phoenix looked at Li Chunfeng, and then nodded: "Yes, human beings have also been locked in wisdom genes!" ”
Zhuang Yun looked at the phoenix and asked again: "Since the humans on Earth can unlock this genetic lock, will the Cele people be able to unlock it one day?" ”
Phoenix shook his head and said, "If there is no external force, they should still be unable to unravel." In fact, the reason why earthlings have been able to develop science and technology is because the Heaven Organization once received an oracle, which unlocked the first layer of genetic locks for some people.
However, I joined late and don't know what this so-called oracle is all about. ”
Hearing Phoenix's words, everyone didn't ask any more questions, but their hearts were very shocked, after all, the genes of the earth's humans were locked, wouldn't that mean that the earth's humans had been restricted and cultivated by a certain advanced civilization.
So if that higher civilization reappears, what kind of treatment will be given to the humans of the earth?
It is no wonder that the Führer has always attached great importance to the research group in charge of the Phoenix Patriarch, and has continuously studied the genes of the earth.
Previously, everyone thought it was for human cloning, but now it seems that it has another important task.
Liu Mingchuan knew Li Chunfeng's secret, originally he thought that Li Chunfeng was studying genes for his own rebirth, but now it seems that he is thinking one-sidedly.
Li Chunfeng looked at everyone's expressions and said, "Today's gene lock matter is the top secret of the empire, and I hope that everyone here will pay attention to it."
Don't worry too much, as our technology advances, we will be able to find out who is behind the genetic locking of us.
Today, the decision of your veteran group is very good, Zhuang Yun must know the priority and control it well when he implements the 'rescue plan' in the future. ”
