410 TAM (1)
Many people think that the society of the Tul people is a cruel class society, but this is not true.
Yes, the Taran class has the right to dominate the other classes, but not the other races. The Taran Clan needs to live and die on the battlefield, and because there are battles in the galaxy almost every day, big and small, every Taran is at risk of death at any time. Technicians, civil servants, and the like don't need to take this risk of birth and death, so these oppressed classes have a higher average life expectancy than the taran class, and of course they are engaged in careers that also require a longer life span to gain experience, so it is just right.
Oppression certainly exists, but the Thules firmly believe that their social structure is only a manifestation of a social division of labor, and they resolutely push back against accusations of oppression and slavery.
In the last millennium, however, this has gradually changed.
"Tam," the old Turk in front of Lin Youde said to him, "remember, no matter how the people around you change, you must become a qualified Taran. โ
Lin Youde understood that he had returned to the memories of Tamtaran's childhood.
Unlike the eldest sister's marquee at that time, this time he directly became Tamtaran.
The last time I watched it, the combat ability was strengthened, and this time I watched Tamtaran's life and didn't know what to get, Lin Youde was a little excited when he thought about it.
Even if you don't give special skills, it's not bad to upgrade to a level of psionic ability.
With such impure motives, Lin Youde began to "appreciate" the memory of Tamtaran.
He is now in the home planet of the Tur people, but it was the home planet of Tur seventy years ago.
These long-lived races are terrifying, and one thinks that they will go back to generations ago as humans.
As part of the Taran family. Tamtaran's childhood was spent in constant fighting, where children of the same age had to fight. Children of different ages have to fight, in short, everyone fights anytime and anywhere. Tamu is the better of his peers. So he quickly gained a status commensurate with his combat effectiveness.
Tam's family was very happy with this.
In contrast, Tam's sister was not so satisfying to the family, according to Tam's memory, his sister was a well-known beauty - but in Lin Youde's opinion, his sister was simply ugly, and she could only be seen if she ignored the color on her breasts.
But his sister didn't like to fight.
It's not that I'm not good at it, it's that I don't like fighting.
"We have achieved victory after victory through the work of technicians and scientists, and we have relied on the hard work of civilian personnel to keep the modern war machine running, but we take it for granted. In fact, unless you can reach the level of psionic energy above level twelve. Otherwise, individual prowess is of limited use in the face of the war machine. "Tam's sister always says things like that to Tam about.
"But when I was younger, I couldn't understand my sister's thoughts." Tam's voice suddenly sounded in Lin Youde's mind, as if it were a narrator.
"But my father not only understood my sister's idea, but also actively wanted to spread it."
With the narration, the screen cuts to Tamu's father at the dinner table explaining his thoughts to his wife and children: "Pride has never been a virtue of the Taran class, but now we are turning it into a virtue, which is extremely wrong!" Arrogance makes us unable to see the current situation! Our society is now a dangerous building, the relationship between supply and demand has been completely unbalanced, and hidden dangers are hidden everywhere. We were able to maintain stability without a large-scale crisis because we were constantly at war, and every day ships were destroyed, so the factory was running at full capacity. The economy can continue to function.
"If one day suddenly we have no more battleships to lose, the factories will shut down and the economy will completely collapse! When the time comes, we will have to reorganize the economic order. This process will cause many people's wealth to disappear in an instant, so these people will go all out to refuse to put order in order. Our society will fall apart too! In order to sustain this deformed society, we must constantly cause war. โ
"We didn't start a war." Tam said to his father. "We're just maintaining the stability of the galaxy."
"By the means of war!" The father retorted sharply.
Tamm shrugged.
"We claim that this is a pursuit of glory, but in fact, the current situation makes us constantly consume the warships produced from excess capacity, and this is the truth."
Tamu shook his head: "If that's the case, then it's been around for a long time, and since that's the case, it makes sense Dad." โ
The narrator sounded as "Father" frowned: "Whenever I say this, my father sighs and tells me to think more with my head than to act on instinct." However, by this time, my psionic abilities had grown by leaps and bounds, and my growing self-confidence made it impossible for me to listen to my father's words. โ
The pace of reminiscence picked up suddenly, and Tamm grew up day by day - though it took forty years to say so, and finally Tamm became a real Taran, with a ship of his own and a full crew of technicians and attendants.
The first task he gets is to chase down his sister who eloped with a technician.
"The pursuit went very well." The narrator reappears, "But now that I think about it, my sister is deliberately waiting for me, and my sister believes that I, as an older brother, will let them go - as long as I claim to have completely destroyed their ship, they will not have to worry about being pursued by the Judge Advocate General's Council for a while." But at that time, I always thought about my father's words, 'No matter how the people around you change, you must become a qualified Taran.' I think my sister has changed, and all I have to do now is to be a qualified Taran. โ
In the footage, Tamm fights his sister and eventually overpowers her and escorts her home.
The technician was immediately executed, and the entire execution was made public.
"A long time ago, it was possible for the Taran class to intermarry with other classes, but in the last millennium, everything has changed." The narrator narrates in a calm voice. "On the day of the execution, my sister stared at me with the eyes of her enemy. I know that our kinship, our bond of blood, is completely over. That was the first time I knew what it was like to lose a loved one. โ
Lin Youde's heart is very complicated. He also thought that the stupid caste system was a unique wonder in human history, and now it seems that the caste system can exist for so many years in human history.
Facts have proven that the progress of science and technology does not necessarily bring about social progress, and the development and prosperity of the productive forces do not necessarily bring about civilization and civilization.
The screen switches, and Tamu, who has earned enough merits, enters the academy that trains high-ranking commanders, where he still fights every day. But this time, it's all on a simulated machine, using a virtual fleet to fight with colleagues.
And Tamu's psionic ability is still excellent, so in addition to studying and training in strategy, he also has to find time to exercise psionic energy and personal combat effectiveness. Everyone thought that Tamm would have a bright future.
Tamu's family is also entering glory, although Tamu's father always expressed opinions that were considered heretical, but because of his ability to govern other classes, he has the support of many non-Talam classes, and his own military strategy and early military exploits also provided a strong impetus for his promotion.
No matter how you look at it. Tam and his family would be the most important presence among the Turians for the next hundred years, and might even control the Judge Advocate General's Conference.
"Everything seemed so bright, and I began to swell, ambition, arrogance, contempt for all arrogance. Everything started to focus on me. But that's what our society is, powerful people have everything, I mean. The mighty Taran has it all. This strength encompasses the definition of all aspects, family background, and personal strength. And so on and so forth.
"And then the end of the swellโ"
The screen cuts to Tamu standing in the middle of a majestic hall. Faced with the condescending members of the Judge Advocate General's Court, there was no father among them.
"Tam? Taran, your father has violated Catch-11 and refused to be heard by the Parliament. We suspect that he is planning to lead the rest of the class in rebellion. The person sitting in the middle seat said in a high-minded tone that Lin Youde particularly disliked, "You are our rising star, you must not want your future to be ruined by your astray father like this, right?" The council also believes that you can't just lose a rising star, so it's up to you to give it a chance. Tam ? Taran, prove that you are a qualified Taran by your actions. โ
Lin Youde couldn't see Tamm's expression right now - because he was using Tamu's point of view.
And his involvement was obviously not deep, so he couldn't directly feel Tamu's mood swings.
The narrator also fails to appear at this time.
What Tamtaran thought of at this time, Lin Youde had no way of knowing.
Everything that happens next happens in a fast-forward and montage fashion, with Tam storming his father's secret stronghold, killing his followers by himself, and then confronting his father sitting alone in his office.
"Pick up your psionic sword, Daddy." The turber language floated out of Lin Youde's mouth, which felt not ordinary strange.
However, the plot did not pay attention to Lin Youde's feelings, but continued to move forward.
"I'm not going to fight my son." The old Thur - it would be better to call him the Thur Reformer now, "I only hope you will think through what the real Taran is." We were once a group of intelligent, humble warriors, and we fought desperately to protect the producers, and we were part of the division of labor in the whole Thule society. Glory is an incentive to fight for something worth defending. Glory is not a springboard to personal ambitions, my child. โ
The narration also appears at this time.
"It was the first time I experienced a shaken feeling, and my father almost shook the hard foolishness in my heart. However, a little bit is always a little bit of a story, and things from the past can never be changed. โ
At the end of the narration, Lin Youde "said": "You have been charged with violating 11 military regulations and plotting rebellion, and I will escort you back to the parliament for a hearing and trial!" โ
The old Turle reformer sighed, although Lin Youde couldn't see Tam's expression, but he could clearly recognize the expression of this old Turk - it was clear that Lin Youde was a human being, and he could do this easily, probably because through this deep spiritual link, something belonging to Tam was passed on to Lin Youde.
"Well, well, that's your choice, Tam, and I'll do it for you. It's the last thing Daddy can do for you. (To be continued.) )
