594 The era of no electricity
Li Sanxiang looked at the steam train steaming from the field in front of him. , looked at the yellowed wall calendar on his wall, and asked in amazement at the communication of the three teammates in the light curtain: "Luan, are you on Earth?" ”
Bai Lu: "We are in the zenith. Xin Pingsi: "I am a swarm. Lu Yuan: "I'm on another planet"
Li Sanxiang was silent for a second and said: "I am on Earth, and the time here is 2018 AD, the sixth year of the world's power loss."
Li Sanxiang's words shocked three teammates. The four of them inquired about the Yuan Yi light curtain and determined that the four of them were all in this plane, but the earth actually appeared in this era, and the time and location described by Li Sanxiang seemed to be in a terrible situation.
###
December 21, 2012. It's not the end of the world for Earth, but it's the beginning. On this night, all the humans of the entire planet suddenly fell unconscious, cars collided in the streets, and planes fell from the sky. The giant ship drifted on the surface of the sea for a week.
When humans woke up and found that all electrical appliances were unusable, what happened at that moment is unknown to scientists all over the world. However, according to the research and development of phenomena, in this era, any conductor with more than a certain amount of current will be subjected to an inexplicably extremely high resistance and turn into heat in the conductor.
This resistance jump is like that of superconductors, some of which lose their superconducting properties once they are subjected to an excess of current.
Of course, scientists from all over the world have found that this maximum allowable current has been slowly increased in the past few years, but the speed of improvement is very slow. Maybe the speed of improvement was fast at the beginning. However, there are no instruments to record the initial circumstances of this event. Because most of the high precision of human beings is electronic.
The only evidence is that all humans were unconscious at the beginning of the time and began to wake up after a night, which means that the electrical currents of early human neurons disappeared in an instant. Fortunately, the current in the human body is very weak and is quickly allowed to travel in the nerve bundles, and if it lasts for a few seconds, the human heart computer is completely cut off, and it will be death. For all of humanity, it's those few seconds of feigned death.
The world is open to the electricity required for human physiological activity, but it is merciless for the current required by machinery, in the first few months. Button batteries powered by LCD electronic watches are not functional.
The world is in great crisis. The astronaut was unable to return home in space and died of carbon dioxide poisoning in the icy capsule. There were riots in the city.
As for the worst, a certain supercarrier is in a cruising state, after everyone fell into a coma all night, the aircraft carrier floated lonely directly in the ocean current. Lost contact with the rest of the fleet.
Thanks to the all-electric propulsion structure, the 100,000-ton aircraft carrier turned into a dead fish. Exposed to the wind and sun at sea. All the crew was trapped on the aircraft carrier, and the aircraft carrier did not sink all at once like a submarine, but drifted directly with the ocean current. After drifting for several months, they could not get close to land, and the crews of different colors and religions fought in the process. Eventually, all of them died from radiation sickness caused by the nuclear reactor leak.
Human civilization suffered a great famine, gold and currency were greatly devalued, supermarket owners hurriedly closed their doors, but were looted by smashers and looters, and in the first three days, the great cities of the Americas fell into chaos. Someone guards the building, and someone dares to set fire to the building underneath.
Even military bases have been attacked, and without electronic systems, military bases are stronger walls. Under the ejection of the gas canister, it was blown up. The soldiers fled in converted diesel vehicles with ammunition. The world's most powerful country was plunged into chaos overnight. (Note: It did not disintegrate.) In the years that followed, North America was plunged into a deep civil war as populism rose sharply and the Tri Ks came to power.
And in the East the situation is slightly better. But there was also a certain amount of confusion in the beginning
In various small towns, there have been robberies of small supermarkets, and the urban ruffians have tried to build their own businesses in this troubled time of anarchy. But they are too young, and the government just doesn't have time to clean up.
Local governments contacted local garrisons, and the army moved into big cities, prioritized the blockade of a series of warehouses such as supermarkets, confiscated bulk supplies, and then went door-to-door to publicize. The train station is being converted into trains, and everyone is packing up the essentials and preparing to leave the city in batches.
The government spent 20 days evacuating the people, promoting party members and cadres at the grassroots level, organizing the grassroots to ensure the fair distribution of daily necessities without looting, and implementing the rationing system. It took another 60 days to crack down on some of the township lawbreakers. Integration of existing industries. Production then returned to the steam industry overnight. But that's what the central government can do. Because the situation is different from place to place. In order to alleviate the contradictions, various localities have taken some measures on their own.
For example, many provinces in the south took the lead in waging wars in order to alleviate social contradictions.
One after another, the so-called "Yellow Water Battleships" began mass production at the Southern Shipyard. The mass production here is a hundred ships launched in a month, and fishermen are directly recruited to expand the navy. As for the dreadnought, it can also be built, but it is too slow, like the Red Alert player starts with a hammer instead of the Apocalypse. Interstellar players start by building machine gunners instead of strategic cruisers.
These sea ships were organized, formerly formed by fishermen, and these maritime militias were incorporated into the army. And when they landed in Southeast Asia, they did not talk about cooperation with the locals, because the local cities did not have many organizations, and what the southern provinces needed was farmland, food, and the contradiction of the surplus population in the country. It's a matter of survival. The problem of the dead friend not the dead and the poor.
The local people were directly driven out, and the surplus population was transported from the country. Everyone is armed with a gun. Establishment of farmsteads. Idealistically, if the local peasants obeyed the organization of the southern identity, handed in the grain at a reasonable price, and at the same time accepted agricultural tools and pesticides and fertilizers, and actively produced. is allowed to exist.
But in the end times, there is no time for countries to organize their people. If your own people can organize, then try to keep your people alive. Many of the southern provinces acquiesced, and the North began to liquidate its rivals in Asia.
The military bases of these free nations stationed here are also in great crisis. In the absence of ammunition and supplies, the American GIs were very acquainted and hugged the thighs of the local government, willing to serve as mercenaries of the local government. Helped the Japanese government suppress the rebellion of the Heisei dolphin people in various cities. Militarism has seen a rapid resurgence.
The parliament of this country on the Northeast Asian archipelago is still busy organizing the country with militarism to implement the great vision of Northeast Asia first, and then Asia. At the Huludao military base, 10,000-ton coast guard ships have been installed with righteous two-hundred-millimeter turrets, loaded with diesel engines, and have begun to enforce the law on the waters of Northeast Asia. All the ships flying the sun flag were detained. Then, the Northeast Asian archipelago was blockaded by sea. The northern capital threatened, "If you do not deeply reflect on the history of the war, you will not be allowed to go to sea in the Northeast Asian archipelago." "As for what criteria to reflect. Specific standards may be established in peacetime, but in this period, no standards will be developed. Because it's just an excuse.
Why not use the slogan of sealing the Japanese archipelago to eliminate the presence of rivals and seize the South Seas of Southeast Asia by itself, and at the same time use this slogan to maintain domestic stability? As for the campaign to land on the Japanese archipelago. Well, it's too expensive to get it.
The direction of expansion in the north is focused on the Heilongjiang region. In an era without electricity, the North lost its nuclear deterrent, and the borders of Asia were like the ice on the river at the beginning of spring. A large number of people were transported north of the Heilongjiang River. The Russians in the Far East, in their confusion, were overwhelmed by the black-haired and black-eyed Chinese. It was only half a year later that Moscow learned about it through the Trans-Siberian Railway.
Of course, Moscow learned of this news and could not do anything, because the Russians are also trying to bridge the internal contradictions, for them only the Great Polish Plain to the east, the Ukrainian granary, is meaningful. Millions of Slavs with guns are advancing eastward. At this time, there were no five pairs of wheels of steel torrents. Cannons carried on steam trains and aircraft converted with diesel engines were the mainstream on the battlefield. As for the Asian region. For the first three years, the players in the world didn't bother until the fourth year.
The 40,000-ton battleships of the East and the battleships of the German-French-Italian alliance met in the Red Sea straits. Only then did the parties realize that the opening phase had passed. Now there will be a scramble for Africa.
The above is the world in which Li Sanxiang lives. In the face of the detailed inquiries of his teammates, Li Sanxiang took a deep breath and said: "Under the leadership of our party, my country is moving towards the direction of only one China in the world. ”
Lu Yuan, Bai Lu, Xin Pingsi, after listening to Li Sanxiang's introduction, fell into thought. The era of no electricity, and this universe. What the hell is going on.
Lu Yuan said: "Uncle Li, pay attention to the starlight in the sky, the spread of information in the universe is the light cone effect. Now you get to the starlight that was emitted in the past, the light that has been floating in the universe for a while. The sudden change in the position of the stars in the sky is almost a precursor to the fact that the earth is about to emerge from the era of electricity. ”
Li Sanxiang: "You mean, we are in the same mission?" Lu Yuan said: "We don't know anything about the various methods of this high-tech era, but the earth suddenly crossed six million years to reach this era, this kind of thing, we should believe it." ”
Li Sanxiang grinned and said, "Earth crossing? This! ”
Lu Yuan thought back to the task of the electronic ghost, and quietly glanced at Bai Lu in the rehearsal. In a somewhat emotional tone, he said: "There are always some people who have a reverence for the ancient existence and try to summon it. Isn't it common to summon gods who have disappeared in the past? ”
