"Social foundation? This is where we are strongest." Tang Xiao said coldly, "The slogan "I am a natural disaster" resounded in the sky! All people fought bravely, and every soldier took the lead! Production, life, fighting, the Principality of Dawn
In what way is the appearance of its people inferior to that of the Galactic Empire?"
"But they don't identify with the Principality of Dawn." Ling Liang said, "Maybe except for the people who woke up from the mothership and the 5 billion frozen embryos, how much do other people identify with the Principality of Dawn? What I said
To put it bluntly, those people are just here to eat."
Hari Seldon said: "According to current statistics, we have directly awakened a total of 550,000 people. Counting these people's direct descendants, the current population is 4.7 million. And the frozen embryos have grown into a total of 4 billion people. The current direct descendants plus the total population
It is 19.3 billion. The current total population of the entire Principality of Dawn is 830 billion. In other words, there are more than 800 billion people living and growing up in the environment of the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire. These people will not
How much identification do you have with the Principality of Dawn?"
He continued: "The Galactic Republic has existed for more than 25,000 years. Even if it is now replaced by the Galactic Empire, in the perception of the majority of the people, this is just a continuation of the Galactic Republic. Twenty-five thousand years of rule means
What? It means that almost everyone will take the existence of the Galactic Republic for granted. It should be there, with Coruscant as its capital, radiating its dominance to the entire galaxy."
"But in contrast, people are very unfamiliar with the existence of the Principality of Dawn. They do not think that the Principality of Dawn is qualified to rule this galaxy. Since it is not qualified, it will be defeated by the Galactic Republic or the Galactic Empire sooner or later." Hari Seldon continued.
Said, "So you can actually see the Milky Way's attitude towards us now. Unless they are slapped in the face by a direct threat, they will not consider us."
He clicked randomly on the decorative star map next to him and said: "Including the remnants of the Confederation of Independent Systems... They just use us as a tool. What tool? A tool that allows them to live under the rule of the Galactic Empire
Better tools.”
Tang Xiao's expression finally turned serious from the anger and madness just now, and he said slowly: "But for those who are already in the Principality of Dawn, no matter how much they identify with the Principality of Dawn, but here with us, they have
Enough food, a safe place to live, and a job. They should defend their own interests."
"That's the problem - what if there's no external enemy?" Hari Seldon said.
"Where is the Galactic Empire, and now you are telling me that there are no foreign enemies?" Tang Xiao asked back.
"Currently, our navy, even under the most basic circumstances, still has the ability to consider defensive operations and fight in the two major fortress systems - the Eriadu system and the Yago-Dur system and the main fleet of the Galactic Empire.
It is very likely to block the progress of the Galactic Empire. After completing the first phase of the defensive operation plan, the next step is to continue to reinforce and expand production..." Hari Seldon said.
"We already have a material decompressor, and soon the Dyson ring will be closed. As it gradually develops, our production capacity will not lose to the Galactic Empire. Next, as long as we rely on the quality advantage of our warships and continue to achieve a higher battle loss ratio, we will
The Galactic Empire's military advantage is gradually being eliminated...then, this is our victory." Tang Xiao interrupted him directly, "I have seen the results of this deduction countless times, and we are now moving forward based on this goal.
"
"So, I would like to ask a resident of the planet Havin, where are the foreign enemies?" Hari Seldon asked calmly.
Tang Xiao was stunned.
"The Galactic Empire? No. They are blocked by us in the fortress galaxy on the border. Where are the foreign enemies? No. There are no missiles falling from the sky, and there are no white armors patrolling the streets. No, no foreign enemies." Hari Seldon said seriously,
"But some of it is that the labor is getting more complicated every day, the material supply is getting tighter every day, and in order to prevent the infiltration of imperial agents, I don't even dare to speak loudly. There are even agents coming to search every day.
Tax officials will come to check taxes, and quartermasters will come to arrange more work for you. But the little income you have is all consumed by the compulsory purchase of national debt... So in the end, the enemy did not see it, but life has changed.
It’s a complete mess.”
Hari Seldon paused and asked: "And what does the victory news broadcast in the news every day have to do with such a person? In his heart, this is a confrontation with the Galactic Empire and the man who rules the galaxy.
Twenty-five thousand years of confrontation between regimes. And what he got, besides the good news in the news, was that his life was about to collapse. What do you think... he would do?"
Tang Xiao raised his head slightly, his eyes filled with murderous intent. Although he did not speak, this was his answer - those who resist will be killed without mercy!
"If such people live in the Galactic Empire, their tolerance will be much greater. And even if they are forced to rebel, they will not think about our Dawn Principality. What they will always think about is-repair.
" Hari Seldon said.
"Repair?" Tang Xiao frowned.
"Yes, they just think that the Galactic Republic is sick and broken and needs to be repaired. Fix it and let it continue to rule the galaxy." Hari Seldon said, "And whoever breaks the Galactic Republic will have to pay the price.
Palpatine? The perfect candidate. He is the one who turned the Galactic Republic into the Galactic Empire... So, to remove Palpatine from power and reorganize the Galactic Republic, this is the only answer for this galaxy."
"What about us?" Tang Xiao asked coldly.
"The Principality of Dawn? It's also just a broken part of the Galactic Republic. No one would consider siding with a broken part, even if the broken part has become a brand new machine. People will always just put it on the side of a broken part.
We treat it as a broken component of the Galactic Republic," Hari Seldon said.
"According to what you said, the Dawn Kingdom is bound to fail?" Tang Xiao's tone was cold.
"Not necessarily. If we can maintain the status quo and continue to develop in a relatively peaceful environment for twenty years or more, as the number of people born and raised in the Principality of Dawn increases, people will naturally recognize the existence of the Principality of Dawn. But there is a problem.
The reason is..." Hari Seldon said, "This war cannot wait for such a long time."
