Chapter 237: The Continent of Europe
At the end of the course, a secret project belonging to the East Galaxy Company's jump spacecraft was officially established, and according to the guidance provided by Mr. Consultant, it took 1 year to get the original tower-shaped Higgs particle generator, and then it took 1 year to put it together and find a way to install it on the spacecraft.
The jump spacecraft is getting closer and closer to reality, through experiments again and again, the results of the data show more and more gratifying, with the observation and mastery of more dark energy tides, their future time from the solar system to the Centaur Alpha from the initial 40 years, slowly compressed to 35 years, 30 years, 25 years, and finally stuck on the number of 20 years, a number that makes people feel extremely excited.
This is still a short 4 light years, if they find a more distant ocean of dark energy filled with stormy waves, does it mean that even if it is tens of light years, hundreds of light years, they can spend a few decades at most?
The above ideas are widely circulated in the research department, and the company is the world's first in science and technology, so it is natural to be optimistic about the future.
Originally, Cao Chuan planned to wait patiently for the advent of the jump spacecraft, but unfortunately, as of 2064, he had just seen the birth of several small moon-by-month prototype ships, and from the experimental data, it had not reached the level of perfection, and he could not equip the Queen Nana for the time being.
After learning about what happened on the land of Europe, he finally broke his oath and resolutely left, leaving the last step of the jump ship to the researchers on the distant planet Eris, thinking that even if the progress was slow, it would definitely be used in a few years.
If the time is compressed to about 20 years. It's definitely a lot better than the advance team, and I hope that when the time comes, I will have the opportunity to inspect the Centaur Alpha and see a different scene.
At this time, Cao Chuan's gaze turned to his home planet, Earth, which was 380,000 kilometers away from him.
The European continent is facing an unprecedented storm. The source point is the Gallic Kingdom, the younger brother of the East Galaxy Company, so even if the East Galaxy is at most observant and does not intervene, Cao Chuan, as the big black man behind the scenes, must pay close attention.
In simple terms, the state of Gaul started the war.
Cao Chuan was very curious about how the people of Europa, who had experienced the brutal World War II and were full of anti-war sentiments, were infected by the idea of war, and it was not only Gaul that took the initiative to undermine the unity within the 13-nation alliance of Europa. choose to use force and provoke war; Even Victoria, the Iron Cross, and Italy have rolled up their sleeves and gone into battle in person?
Let's start with the current world situation.
In the 30s of the 21st century, during the Xiaoice period enveloping the earth, Gaul and the East Galaxy Company launched a series of in-depth cooperation, as the first country to take the initiative to move closer to the East Galaxy, Cao Chuan naturally gave Gaul considerable support.
This can be seen from the economic development of Gaul in recent years. GDP grew to the 50 trillion level, especially in terms of power generation. It accounts for half of the whole of Europe, and the large-scale import of various products of the East Galaxy Company, such as family spaceships, second-generation city modules, and the overall transformation of the East Galaxy, has turned this country into a country of the future.
If you compare the Iron Cross at the same time. The economies of several countries in Victoria, Italy, will find that they have made great strides in the wave of planetary development, but the annual ranking of national power is gradually lagging behind Gaul, so that this year. Gaul is already ranked 5th in terms of overall national power.
In addition, the top four are, the first place is the Night Rabbit Country, the second place Freedom Lighthouse Country, the third place Polar Bear Country, the fourth place Rising Sun Country, and the East Galaxy Company are not included in the statistical range.
As a result, the growth of national strength, the abundance of life, the fulfillment of material life, etc., made the national self-confidence within Gaul rapidly swell, and they were brave enough to face various challenges from the diplomatic side, and even to take radical measures to solve problems.
The second reason comes from the harsh environment of planet development, according to the statistics of scholars, over the past few decades, more than 5 million people have died in the past few decades, accounting for 10% of the total number of participants in planet development.
The immigrants in the alien planet must fight against the harsh nature and the murderous star thieves, and it will be absolutely difficult for the Virgin to survive, and will only become a forgotten tombstone, and in the end, all the immigrants who have the opportunity to achieve fame and fame are immigrants with fighting spirit and full of combat effectiveness.
When immigrants with these traits took control of Gaul's politics, public opinion, and wealth pyramid, they reversed the national mood and developed in a more proactive, aggressive, and even aggressive direction.
Finally, the newly appointed President Karan after the 60s, who was born as an astronaut and is accustomed to thinking about how to deal with the international situation with the thinking of immigrants, and the countermeasures he makes will naturally be radical and violent.
No one cares about the cause of the war, only that it happened like this, and it swept across the continent with a bang, and the Gaul countries launched the war not only for the sake of the verbal claims, but after such great development, they could no longer satisfy the embarrassing position within the 13-nation alliance of Europa, and the goal was to become the first leader of the alliance.
Their opponent is Victoria, an old rival across the Strait, who was no surprise to anyone more than 500 years ago, during the Hundred Years' War, when the two countries had a thrilling love-and-kill incident.
However, if you still look at these two countries from the perspective of the beginning of the 21st century, you will definitely lose sight, and if you have the opportunity to travel back to 50 years ago, you will definitely be qualified to directly wrestle with the Beacon of Freedom.
Victoria has also made great progress in recent years, with the size of the unmanned corps alone growing to an order of magnitude of 100,000, and even leading the construction of a missile defense system covering the whole of Europe after the Washington incident to prevent a repeat of the tragedy.
However, they are always a little far from Gaul.
Therefore, it did not take long for the war to show a clear distinction between strength and weakness, and Victoria suffered heavy losses, not only that, but during the war, no matter how restrained, it was inevitable that it would be injured and affected by mistake.
As a result, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg were all exchanged fire by various spaceships, and unmanned units fell and made forever peaceful, and there were no well-known people among their citizens who were born to develop any planets, and there was no way to ensure the security of the country.
The war spread to half of Europe, and even Cao Chuan didn't expect that the Gallic State in these years could be so fought, could it be said that Napoleon resurrected and possessed President Karan? Or did Joan of Arc come back to life, oh, he forgot, Joan of Arc was by his side.
Before the use of strategic weapons, modern warfare could no longer be like World War II, where tens of thousands of people die every day, but looking at the grand scene of the fall of hundreds of unmanned units at night every night is enough to prove that the two sides really fought a fire.
Unfortunately, after a bitter war that lasted for half a year, the Gaul State still failed in the end, because there were contradictions within the Gaul State, and a group of Belt and Road parties quietly contacted Victoria and even other countries within the Alliance, and put forward the idea of establishing a "peaceful Gaul state" and a "free Gaul state", instead of a "strong but dangerous Gaul state", lobbying everywhere, doing dangerous but tempting political speculation.
For the emergence of the Belt and Road Party, Victoria was naturally overjoyed, feeling as if it had won the lottery, so by planning a carefully prepared battle to liberate Paris, it invested 50% of its own unmanned units and more than 100,000 regiments in one go.
In this way, the war seems to be over, yes, only on the European continent, and in fact, the real effects of this war have just spread to the world, only not necessarily in the way of war. (To be continued.) )
PS: It looks like Rise of the Tomb Raider will be unlocked in 1 hour, and I'm really looking forward to it.
