In 3469, the war has been going on for 10 years on the Blue Saint Planet. It seems that the decline of luck has led to the rise of evil. The attitude of the Eastern camp towards this war has become more and more impetuous. And the impetuous people have become more and more impetuous.

The generals who cannot tolerate mediocrity and incompetence waste fuel and steel on the front line. And the money invested in the war has affected the basic livelihood of the cyber city.

When the game arcade in Cyber ​​City was unable to operate due to a power outage, the bento restaurant was closed due to insufficient supply of ingredients, and was replaced by an "automatic supermarket" that supplied black food cubes. Oh, the city managers also seemed to know that this would cause dissatisfaction, so

The shopping machines of those "automatic supermarkets" are guarded by machine puppets with real guns and nuclear bombs.

As a result, order was only threatened by the barrel of a gun, and outside the wall of the guard area of ​​​​the machine puppet, there was a roaring and smashing on the street.

[The "author" corresponding to the Fertile Soil Zone, a working citizen looked at the increasingly chaotic foreign situation on TV and lamented: "When the first-mover bonus of developed countries disappears, from top to bottom, everyone is looking at the situation from luxury to income."

A simple and difficult look.”]

The Eastern Holy Kingdom's foreign wars were not in favor of the country, and there were "robbery and bandits rampant" in the history books.

The frontline command power was gradually controlled by Wang Jing, headed by the four elites of Qingtian. Because Dongsheng now has no outstanding talents. The wealthy families within Dongsheng still hold important positions in the control of the "Martial Arts King Kong" mecha. In the cyber city,

In high-end situations, there are all coaches born from these "old martial lords". However, these brave warriors have never been involved in foreign wars. They are like the fireworks of the Song Dynasty.

And the Qi refiners in the court, in these troubled times, are even more indifferent to this trend.

…

There is no concept of low-grade golden elixirs and high-grade golden elixirs on the entire Blue Saint Star. There is only the concept of those who are expected to advance to Yuanying and those who are hopeless.

From the perspective of energy scale, there is not much difference between low-grade golden elixir monks and high-grade golden elixir monks.

For example, the scale energy of Li Xu's elixir is about eight times that of Tongji (low-grade golden elixir). The real "gap" lies in the resolution of the "spiritual spectrum". In this regard, Li Xu's resolution of aura is mid-grade.

Six thousand times more golden elixir. If you use "color" to describe the difference between different auras, this is the difference between human vision and invertebrate vision.

Notes on Wei Keng’s Immortal Cultivation Technique: Whether it is “alchemy” or “weapon refining”, the operation of “purifying spiritual energy” is required, that is, stripping out those interfering spectrum segments from the original mixed “spiritual spectrum segments”.

This process of "xinxing elixir formation" is achieved by the monks with their own perseverance and wisdom during the process of elixir formation.

This is similar to traditional industrial countries in the 21st century, which have completed industrialization and accumulation through their own routes. The patience behind this to resolve various contradictions is extremely difficult to quantify in terms of numbers, and it only applies to their own national conditions.

As for those "middle-grade" golden elixirs that use heavenly materials and earthly treasures to condense elixirs, or those elixir-forming monks who directly implant "outer elixirs" (in the past, they were refined by demon beast golden elixirs, but now they are mass-produced by weapon spirits).

It is similar to those pseudo-industrial countries that cannot do it themselves and look forward to the transfer of developed countries.

In various worlds, there are countless opportunistic methods of forming elixirs, such as low-grade and medium-grade ones. Only the method of forming elixirs of the mind is recognized as the "high-grade" route. In the great world of clouds and sky (Galaxy) where Wei Keng lives, those interstellar

The top-grade elixirs of the major forces among them all operate extremely high-end industries, such as the elevator facilities between their own planet and the moon.

The technological level of the planet where Li Chu is now is completely unworthy of the "Golden Pill of Heart" to shine. At present, Li Chu has also restrained his military creativity, and at most he only changed individual weapons and passenger transport.

The spaceship did not show any difference from fellow monks. Of course, Li Xu's mind was used in other places.

The golden elixir of mind can move up to the sky, even if the "turbulent times" cause fluctuations in the journey.

As for whether middle-grade alchemy monks can make progress, it depends on whether "timing" and "luck" allow it.

At this time, for the qi-training monks of the Eastern Holy Kingdom, the current "timing time" is conducive to the "spiritual way" and not conducive to the "immortal path", so they have to compete for the only remaining "qi luck".

What is "luck"? This is a state in which a group is in the "upward development stage".

This group is not necessarily more advanced than the old group, but if it is in the "upward stage", then it will have good luck.

For example, the "guardians" of the Central Plains Dynasty were brutally beaten by the northern junior feudal barbarian forces in some periods of history. That is, the outside of the pass was in a state of development (luck), while the inside of the pass was in a solidified state and lost its luck. When the forces outside the pass

After taking over, the old aristocrats consolidated the remnants of the feudalization process and quickly lost their "luck".

A team with "luck" and a team without "luck" are different in spirit.

Wei Kengrui commented: For example, if a scientific research team is unable to achieve results (with luck), the entire team's perspectives will be diverse and they will try their best to look in all directions. But without luck, the scientific research department listed during the process will not be able to achieve results.

If the team is keen on building interpersonal relationships, then a group of valuables will be gathered.

The experience of Chinese materialism: In a team with "luck", even if you have shortcomings, with the help of the team's brainstorming, you can be pushed by the team to maintain self-discipline and maintain vigor. On the other hand, a team without luck will be affected by the team

, has a narrow perspective and takes disaster without knowing it.

However, "development" is relative. The development of the Westernization Movement in the Qing Dynasty encountered the rapid advancement of the European powers at that time, and it became "backward". Therefore, in this comparison between all parties, "luck" is limited! Therefore, it must be won.

As a "reader" who already knows the plot, Zhongren: In the current era of cybernetic cultivation, those who want to advance to Yuanying with a mid-level golden elixir cannot do it without luck.

There are many real people in Dongsheng Kingdom who are helping their families seek political power. Their personnel management is just like the bosses of family businesses. They will set up a ceiling to isolate capable people. How high this ceiling is depends on them.

The abilities of their children, any talent that exceeds their children's ability to control, will be suppressed.

As the leader of the Four Heroes, Wang Jing has gathered many capable people with himself as the center during the ten years of war. Fate has quietly gathered on him. Compared with other family disciples, Wang Jing's specific performance is:

He will execute some cycles up to ten or twenty years to plan.

Wei Keng, who was among them, could clearly feel the difference in "luck". He could discuss some strategic cooperation with Wang Jing and the others, but with other Jindan families, he could only negotiate based on short-term interests.

...In a long-term confrontation, the huge Dongsheng will be difficult to hit from the outside, even if it is not conducive to the weather, but it will become an elbow and armpit...

The war has lasted eleven years, and with the unmanned troops of the Western cultivators, the situation is increasingly under control.

In an era when the "spiritual mind" trend keeps pace with the times, the previous version of Dongsheng did not update the "martial arts and mecha" military system, and was completely in a state of being beaten.

Some of the personnel and generals who have achieved low-grade golden elixirs in the Eastern Holy Kingdom did not want to admit this in the past and wanted to turn the tide. However, after losing many troops and generals, they have stopped speaking out recently. But not speaking out does not mean bowing down and admitting defeat.

Like all conservatives at the end of the dynasty, they are now determined that the "new model" system will squeeze them out. They cannot integrate into the new model, so they simply stand aside and resist coldly. (Military Aircraft Department in the late Qing Dynasty)

Dongsheng's military and state affairs system showed signs of sluggishness and paralysis, and Wang Jing was left to take care of the frontier war arrangements.

In this kind of hard work, Wang Jing began to weave his own network of relationships in important positions. As one of the Four Heroes of Qingtian, Li Xu was naturally included in the network.

For example, in a private meeting, Wang Jing inadvertently discussed the family's bloodline and the issue of recognizing ancestors with Li Xu, but Li Xu cleverly changed the topic and skipped the focus of the conversation to the current strategy.

Regarding the battle of the Eastern Holy Kingdom at this time, Li Zhu had his own opinions.

Li Zhu drew strokes on the map with his finger: In the current situation, we must trade small losses for time, and continuously strengthen the wall and clear the field by shrinking the strategy to lengthen the opponent's front line. We cannot prevent the opponent from advancing, but we must prevent the opponent from taking away too many results.

The strategy mentioned by Li Xu is the strategy used by Wei State to deal with Shu State during the Three Kingdoms period.

There are two strategic articles in the Three Kingdoms that can be described as tit-for-tat, one is "Longzhong Dui", and the second is "Stop the War".

Compared with the sharp-edged Longzhong Dui, Zhizhanshu seemed very timid. Moreover, because the authors of the two articles were Zhuge, the prime minister through the ages, and Hua Xin, who helped the Cao family usurp the Han Dynasty, Zhizhanshu was not widely known.

pass.

The key point of stopping the war is to realize that the "strong period" and "defensive period" of the two countries alternate in cycles with the changes of both sides from generation to generation. During the strong period, we must take advantage of the good people's hearts and do not give in.

Actions with high losses and low returns hurt morale. However, during the weak period, you must be patient and maintain your strength.

Li Xu is now trying to persuade Wang Jing, the leader of his own party, to be forbearing in accordance with the idea of ​​​​ending war.

The Western Alliance is in the right position this time. This generation of talents is shining brightly. It provides the side effect of suppressing the "elimination of the old party" under the absolute authority of the Holy See. At this time, if the East and the West confront each other, it will be like Cao Cao in Hanzhong

Bet against Liu Bei's wealth,

With the blessing of heaven and earth, Liu Bei, a guy with mediocre military abilities, has a shining general under his command. If Cao Cao had just gathered the northern troops to fight, he would have become Wang Mang to a large extent, and the Han Dynasty would still have another two hundred years, but Cao Cao retreated.

Ji Han had to face multiple roads, and then the "Jingzhou" side couldn't hold on. Guan Yu's road collapsed due to the rebellion of the incompetent people inside. In fact, whether it was Xiangfan or the street pavilion behind, Shu Han was at a critical node.

There’s no point in targeting people. Behind this is a lack of talent that can’t handle a business that’s too big.

Wei Keng: If you don’t have great courage and determination, and when the weather is not in your favor, you can only be stable by shrinking. You must say that I am a middle-aged person, well, I often get used to it.

As an individual compared to society, if you want to achieve results now, you must look at the "timing"

Just like in the 1920s, all the elite physicists of mankind were in Europe, including Marie Curie, Planck, Lorentz, Einstein, Pauli, Born, Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Einstein.

Gathered together in one photo, this is the "climate" of Europe that is full of openness and tolerance. But at that time, Europeans could not have imagined that a hundred years later their own culture would become "animal protection", "environmental protection" and "gender freedom".

Garbage dump.

When the weather is strong, nothing can stop it. The strength of the weather also lays the hidden danger of decline...

This is because leadership will rely on a certain advantage of "the right time" to get rich and use unlimited overdrafts. However, once the "right time" passes, such an "overdraft" policy will continue to be implemented with inertia because it has accumulated huge interest groups.

became the source of decline.

At the moment, Li Chi is watching Xiting, making full use of the talent dividend generated by the great development of "cultivating gods". The next reversal of heaven's way will be sixty years later.

As for Wang Jing, Li Xu is waiting for his choice. It will take decades for the strategy of ending the war to be effective.

Other Jindan Daoist people will not have the patience and mind to wait for such a long time. Only those who hope to achieve Nascent Soul can wait like this.

…

Therefore, after 69 years, the war entered a situation of attrition.

In the Western Wilderness area, Dongsheng relied on a defense line of 300 kilometers in depth, one hundred kilometers apart in the front, middle and rear, to engage in conflict with the Western Cross Alliance.

The first front line is a temporary defense line composed of various sandbags, anti-mecha stakes, and sensor bombs. Those from the Eastern Holy Kingdom who originally lagged behind the version of "Buddhist Driving Mecha" and "Qi Refiner Operated High Melt Nuclear Cannon" were deployed

in these favorable terrains.

The second line of defense is the cluster of bunkers connected by the road network, and the third line of defense is the railway hub and air force base relying on the natural dangers of the natural mountains.

Once the mechanized troops of the Crusaders break through the first line of defense, the supply line will be greatly lengthened. At that time, the theory of "transporting food thousands of miles is not the advantage of using troops; crossing dangers and going deep, there is no single victory."

blow.

Wei Keng has a mathematical formula for this. When there is an additional bomb on a fifty-kilometer road transportation line, the traffic jam effect caused by the damage to the road will reduce the transportation efficiency in the area by one-tenth, and this efficiency is

Can be superimposed.

Therefore, the front should be lengthened and the enemy's logistics costs should be increased.
