Chapter 863: Spread of Rules
In the context of the growing Meteorite Star Sea Alliance, the pattern of war in the entire Meteorite Star Sea has undergone tremendous changes.
Outside the Alliance, the original rules of war continue to dominate the war behavior of many interstellar civilizations that have immigrated over, and the civilizations are in a primitive state of survival of the fittest.
This is originally a very normal thing, for many years interstellar civilizations have been in a similar pattern of getting along, except for those civilizations that are within the direct jurisdiction of cosmic-level civilizations, all interstellar civilizations are such a way of life, civilizations can continue to continue, except for relying on their own strong war strength, their own survival wisdom, there is nothing else to really rely on.
For these interstellar civilizations, the friendship and friendship with other civilizations are unreliable, and the relationship between interstellar civilizations is completely maintained by interests and strength, once their own strength declines, or encounters a powerful enemy, even the allies who have tried everything possible to win over in the past are often unreliable, and all interstellar civilizations must rack their brains for their own survival.
In this interstellar era, if there are no super powerful forces as backers, and if there are no star fields that are orderly and have strong forces to maintain the rules between civilizations, each civilization must do its best for its own survival.
In order to get more survival resources and more room for development, you must compete with other civilizations as much as possible, have enough ferocious and strong enough war forces, and encounter civilizations that can take advantage of some advantages, and it is best to take advantage of them, so as to be able to strengthen your own civilization to the greatest extent.
But at the same time, all interstellar civilizations must restrain their edge to a certain extent, and avoid becoming the target of public criticism as much as possible.
Although the allies of interstellar civilizations are completely unreliable, which of these interstellar civilizations was not killed in a sea of corpses and blood? Can survive for a long time, these interstellar civilizations may be short-sighted or greedy, but each of them is extremely sensitive to danger.
If a certain civilization is too arrogant and domineering, too insatiable, and exceeds the psychological bottom line of other interstellar civilizations, other interstellar civilizations will often tacitly join forces to counteract and even destroy this dangerous civilization.
It is necessary to be greedy and restrained, and if you want to survive in this environment, it can be said that it is a great test of the skill and wisdom of an interstellar civilization.
This is the case with many interstellar civilizations that have migrated into the meteorite star sea, and for tens of thousands of years, various interstellar civilizations that have migrated have been stumbling and growing savagely under the law of the jungle in complete disorder.
In such an environment, under such a way of getting along with civilizations, even if each interstellar civilization is not looking for trouble, often all kinds of troubles will find their heads at any time.
All kinds of frictions between civilizations, large and small, and even small-scale wars between civilizations, serious conflicts of interest, etc., will cause interstellar civilizations to be under tremendous external pressure all the time.
Frequent battles and frequent conflicts have led to the fact that the faster-than-light fleet of every interstellar civilization is a huge drain.
The real war consumption has forced the resources of many interstellar civilizations to invest in the bottomless pit of faster-than-light spaceships, and a considerable part of the dividends of many civilizations in their development have been completely consumed on the investment in these weapons.
This was originally something that many civilizations in the Meteorite Star Sea had become accustomed to and commonplace, and even thought that it might continue forever, until a civilization that was too powerful to resist established a new order in this large galaxy, and this old rule would be abolished.
Of course, in the eyes of many interstellar civilizations, the forces that are qualified to establish and maintain this order must at least be a super interstellar civilization with completely independent faster-than-light spaceship production capacity, and more qualified is naturally an incomparably powerful cosmic-level civilization.
If it weren't for these two powerful civilizational forces, then even if other forces tried to establish a similar order, they would end up working in vain.
Ordinary interstellar forces are simply not qualified to customize their own order and rules in this cosmic era, even with such ambitions, these civilizations do not have the corresponding strength to maintain their order, and there are many interstellar civilizations that have seen many such things.
Therefore, for the meteorite star-sea alliance to rashly implement new rules of war within the alliance, most of the other interstellar civilizations are watching with the idea of watching jokes.
Without a stable and powerful core civilization, it is simply unrealistic to want many civilizations with evil intentions to unite and jointly form a powerful and viable interstellar civilization alliance, and how many civilizations have tried to do similar things in the past, and most of their final results can only be called lessons, and they are also sad lessons.
Although the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance showed quite strong potential at the beginning of its rise and had good scientific and technological strength, in the eyes of many civilizations, this alliance was not enough.
Because this alliance does not have a stable and strong core civilization, it has too many members, and each civilization has its own interests, and under the internal struggle for power, it is too easy to lead to the collapse of the alliance.
It is rare for a similar civilization to form an alliance and go through several large galaxies around it, and finally be able to sustain it for a long time.
If a powerful alliance of civilizations can be established, if a set of effective alliance order, especially the war order, can be maintained, as long as it can be successful, then the core civilization in this alliance will benefit a lot, can mobilize at least dozens of times the strength of its civilization itself, the security environment of the entire civilization can be significantly improved, and not many civilizations dare to provoke such a ruthless character.
Not only can the core civilizations of the alliance benefit a lot, but even the marginal civilizations of the alliance can be stained with a lot of light and the situation is much better.
The alliance is a powerful force multiplier when used well, who doesn't know this, the problem is that there is no strong strength, there is no solid foundation, and if you want to build a strong, long-lived civilization alliance, this is almost an impossible thing.
Therefore, for the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance, most civilizations are not optimistic.
But contrary to the expectations of all interstellar civilizations, this alliance unexpectedly went very steadily!
Although there are a lot of founding civilizations within this alliance, there is a well-coordinated core force, and this core force is not a single interstellar civilization, but as many as dozens of them, each with a powerful interstellar civilization.
Originally, according to common sense, mutual trust between interstellar civilizations is very problematic, and it is already a difficult thing for more than three civilizations to form a unified position in unison, but these dozens of interstellar civilizations have actually achieved the same position, and have become a real core force within the alliance, leading almost all the core affairs of the alliance, allowing the alliance to develop steadily, and there is no uncontrollable fork in the slightest because more and more joining civilizations continue to join.
It was in this unbelievable and almost impossible situation that the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance continued to expand and develop under the unbelievable gaze of other civilizations.
In particular, the emergence of the rules of war within the alliance has given this alliance a powerful advantage that other interstellar civilizations cannot match.
The Meteorite Star Sea Alliance itself is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more civilizations joining, the greater the benefits this will bring to each civilization, and the more protection it will receive, which is already a great benefit.
And with the emergence of new rules of war within the alliance, this has reduced the internal friction of the alliance to almost a minimum.
After all, even if a person's teeth still bite their tongue, it is impossible for the various civilizations within the alliance to have no contradictions because they belong to the same alliance.
Under normal circumstances, if this kind of contradiction is not properly channeled and resolved, the contradictions within the alliance will only become bigger and bigger, and eventually lead to the collapse of the entire alliance.
However, if the members of the alliance are allowed to fight each other and release contradictions, it is also very likely to lead to the lack of external expansion strength under the internal friction of the alliance.
After all, the number of spaceships of each civilization is limited, and if a certain number of warships are lost in the war within the alliance, then the external expansion will naturally be weak and weak, which will lead to the alliance expanding to a certain extent, and it will no longer be able to expand externally.
However, the emergence of new rules of war completely solved the problem of internal friction within the alliance.
Although under the new rules of war, there is still internal friction between the members of the alliance, and it may even be because of the life-and-death killing between the members of the two sides, the hatred between the two warring civilizations has penetrated deep into the people and become a hatred that is difficult to dissolve.
But this minor flaw is nothing compared to the benefits of the new rules of war.
Even with internal friction, each member of the alliance does not consume faster-than-light ships in the war, and this benefit alone ensures that the alliance's strength will not be truly weakened.
What's more, although the killing and hatred between those people at the bottom exist, after all, this only exists at the bottom of the civilization, and does not affect the decision-making of the top of the civilization.
Moreover, conflicts between alliance members are also very frequent, and some alliance civilizations will frequently clash with other civilizations, which also leads to hatred that does not focus on a certain civilization, and does not really lead to hatred among members of the alliance.
The new rules of war can not only alleviate the contradictions within the alliance, reduce the cost of internal friction, and even maintain the cohesion within the alliance!
Those members of the alliance who have engaged in the civilization war, in the war, they have figured out some details of each other, so they can understand each other more, and they can know more about how much weight they have, which is obviously of great benefit to the order and stability of the alliance, so that some civilizations will not see their position clearly, resulting in some confusion within the alliance.
Under this kind of benefit, it is equivalent to that every member of the alliance has obtained the benefits of joining the alliance as much as possible, but it has not been affected by the internal friction of the alliance.
On the one hand, the members outside the alliance are afraid to provoke the members of the alliance because of the power of the alliance, and on the other hand, they are constantly having friction and disputes with other civilizations, constantly consuming their own war strength.
This further led to the Alliance's suppression of the strength of ordinary interstellar civilizations, and further enhanced the influence of the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance.
And with the implementation of the new rules of war within the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance, many interstellar civilizations have also quickly seen the great changes that this new rule of war has brought to the alliance.
The Meteorite Star Sea Alliance itself can be regarded as a super powerful force with no natural enemies and no opponents in the Meteorite Star Sea.
And with the implementation of the new rules of war, the internal friction of the alliance immediately dropped to a rather alarming level, which made the expansion of the power of the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance an unprecedentedly rapid process.
All forces, no matter how big or small, are not willing to die out on their own, and the external expansion of the alliance is ruthless, either taking the initiative to join the alliance and becoming the bottom joining civilization of the alliance, or being surpassed, isolated, or even annexed in the competition with the alliance.
Either of these two paths would be in any way unattractive to powerful non-allied civilizations.
In order to struggle for survival, those weak star civilizations may take the initiative to join the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance, but this does not exist at all for a powerful interstellar civilization, and no powerful interstellar civilization is willing to take this path.
Now is not the time when the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance was first established, if the alliance was just formed, as a founding civilization, it would be possible to hold a certain amount of authority when joining the alliance, even if it failed to enter the core layer, it would not be a loss.
However, these powerful interstellar civilizations were not optimistic about the prospects of the alliance at the beginning, and they naturally did not join it in the first place.
Now they see the prospect of the Alliance, but by this time the window of opportunity for the founding civilization has long passed, and the new civilization can only slowly climb up from the bottom, which is completely unsuitable for those powerful civilizations.
But under the pressure of the alliance, these civilizations are even more reluctant to be annexed!
Therefore, in desperation, these powerful interstellar civilizations have also joined forces to form forces, and learned the rules of the alliance within the forces, and introduced new war clauses.
