On the surface, Latvinia's external expansion has stopped. The ethnic conflicts, religious conflicts and wealth gap between Yugoslavia in the Balkan Peninsula are enough to keep the newly established Latvian government busy for a long time. After the Wakandans left,
In half a month, Latovinia, which has escaped the financial difficulties of the Eternal City, will focus on the capital and radiate infrastructure construction projects outwards. The city will expand together with the railway network until the province of Latovinia is completed.
A giant city with a space elevator.
The land of Latvinia will not be limited to the land part. Wakanda and Mars foundries have taken orders to build new space stations. In the future, Wakandans and Latvinians can use the space elevator and ride it docked at the dock.
The void passenger plane in the spacecraft will go to high orbit, where there will be a giant space station that can be called a moving plate.
The space station will be divided into a dock area for docked starships, a military area and a living area. Convenient transportation and sufficient supplies will make it a permanent place to live. It is conceivable that Latovinia in the future will
Attracting many immigrants, the emperor plans to use these people to complete his work and alleviate the plight of underpopulation in the Balkans - now he cannot buy Syrian refugees from Turkey to serve as labor force, and humans who have not yet seen the cruelty of the universe just regard refugees as
As a tool for profit and self-satisfaction, Latvinia, which requires refugees to abandon their religious beliefs and work and study scientifically and rationally, will inevitably suffer more criticism.
"Why?" Stephanie Malik asked fiercely. Compared to the silent secretary Diana List, who stood aside, her reaction was much more intense. She was the first to learn that part of the plan was temporarily suspended.
For a senior official who coordinates the planning of all infrastructure construction projects, the biggest headache for her now is Latvinia's population problem. The Balkan Peninsula's population of just over 100 million is difficult to meet such a large-scale infrastructure.
The labor force required for the construction project. "In any case, when the refugees arrive in the Balkans, it is us who have the final say, and they can do whatever they want. We were often criticized when we solved the ethnic conflicts in Yugoslavia. Why are you here now?
Stopped?"
Stephanie Malick pulled up a chair and sat at her desk, face to face with the emperor.
Her personal relationship with the emperor allowed her to speak freely and even raise objections instead of blindly following administrative orders. After all, the starting point of the emperor's career was closely related to the Malik family. What's more, the emperor himself also encouraged his subordinates to think independently.
People who are too authoritative but unable to speak are always worried about the problem of bureaucracy, but that problem currently does not exist due to the emperor's efficient management and organizational level.
"You don't have to worry about international public opinion. Instead of calling them slaves, we can use some nice names, such as the Return to Civilization Project. As long as we have a nice name and some living allowances, we can avoid international public opinion criticism. If we take over
If they have refugees, then the EU will have to pay us a sum of money because we have helped them solve serious social problems." Without leaving the emperor time to answer, Stephanie Malik began to find out on her own the reasons why the emperor adjusted his plan.
, "Is it to say that the oil hoarding project is going smoothly? Those pariahs in Saudi Arabia, as long as the aliens have enough brains to conduct strategic analysis when the end comes, those princes and nobles will be the first to die on the earth... Could it be
Isn’t it?”
Stephanie Malik was also surprised when the emperor shook his head.
"Or is it a matter of the dominant nation or cultural invasion? We have discussed the reasons for the rise of the United States during the two world wars. Our industrial base needs the support of foreign populations just like the United States in the last century. Latovinia is destined to become
A multi-ethnic nation. Before the alien fleet arrives, we need to seize the opportunity to obtain more organized population migration as a labor force, my lord!"
"It's not for such a simple reason, Stephanie. Before the end of the first phase of the project, the engineering equipment is enough to solve most manpower problems. The alien fleet will arrive before the second phase of the project is launched, and subsequent projects will be carried out under fire.
"The emperor said calmly, his eyes illuminated by the warm light of the desk lamp, "Stephanie, you are still looking at the problems encountered by Latvinia from the perspective of an earth country, instead of moving towards the human empire of the galaxy and setting your sights.
Look further and you will get the answer."
"Then this is not a problem, my lord." Stephanie said, "At that time, the life of a refugee will be less than a piece of bread. Now Europeans are not willing to work for refugees, and they will not be willing to share food in the future. Then
At this time, just asking refugees to give up their religion is already a very kind act, let alone providing them with jobs and education. By then, they will believe in you instead of the gods in books."
The words of the Minister of the Interior were very sincere. From a practical point of view, the emperor should indeed follow her advice.
After the arrival of the alien fleet, international public opinion accusations about human rights have no meaning. At that time, human life was not as valuable as food, weapons and fuel. Death would be the most common thing in the world, so the emperor would not consider it at all.
Something that will expire immediately.
The plan to hoard oil will indeed be partially affected, but the disturbance value is still within the acceptable range. When the emperor and the regent first made the plan while drinking, they reserved a considerable numerical margin for correcting errors in subsequent calculations.
This reserve margin is a more appropriate range obtained after repeated calculations by the emperor's astonishing brain. As long as Stephanie Malik and Regent Victor von Doom continue as planned, then the oil hoarding
There will be no problems with the plan, and even if it fails, there will still be an alternative plan to execute.
All of Stephanie Malick's speculations came to nothing because she thought this was a sign of the emperor's softness.
When war comes, humankind's bestiality will be infinitely magnified, and any atrocities unimaginable by ordinary people will spread on the earth, but that is not the most terrifying thing. The emperor knows very well that when Thanos's fleet comes to the solar system, some
The ruling group will reveal its outrageous bottom line, and may even defect to the aliens in order to obtain more technology, turn its guns on its own human compatriots, and strive to become the king of mankind under the rule of aliens.
The battle between humans, the battle between humans and aliens, and the battle between humans and monsters created by humans will be carried out on the surface of this planet at the same time. Although in the eyes of many countries, the battle for the alien fleet has begun.
Latovinia, which is preparing for a large-scale invasion, is quite crazy, because many experiences have proven that aliens only carried out small-scale attacks - but when that time comes, Latovinia, which adheres to large humanism and "Unified Truth", will
Become a prophet, and all decisions made for the survival of the human race will appear to be very correct and reasonable. Although this kind of justice cannot solve practical problems, it can provide long-term stability and legitimacy, so both the emperor and the regent agreed to temporarily suspend
Continue to expand, operate with peace of mind, and accumulate strength for the future.
The Emperor hopes that the coming invasion will make the human race realize that the price of survival is a series of trolley problems, and that humans must make the right choices to repel the aliens throughout the solar system. The premise of this strategy is
Thanos must be made to realize that he cannot complete his mission in space and completely prevent the alien fleet from achieving a quick victory through orbital bombing. This sounds a bit incredible, because the gap in technological generation and orbital control cannot be compensated.
But judging from the intelligence obtained in exchange for Asgard and the Emperor's time as an interstellar pirate, Thanos is extremely proud and arrogant. Latovinia can make a strategic layout based on this characteristic and use the only way to completely
Deal with the alien armada spread across the solar system.
This war is not only a tribulation for the human race, but also an opportunity for all-round transformation from technology to thinking, even if it means that humans outside Latovinia and outside the emperor's protection will be massacred by alien armies. The emperor does not want to
Maybe she was soft-hearted, Stephanie Malik understood this when she saw the emperor's eyes on her. She understood that the emperor's ambition required more than just labor, but more things that had to be exchanged for blood.
