Chapter 53 Strength Comparison

It should be noted that what is finally arrived at here is a solution that everyone can accept, not the best solution. This is the biggest benefit of this compromise system, and also its biggest disadvantage. Its good side is that it is restrictive

The stronger party cannot forcibly deprive the weaker party of its rights. In this way, although the process may be relatively complicated and the efficiency will inevitably be low, there will not be a situation where some people are particularly happy and others are particularly angry.

, so this approach is very conducive to the stability and steady development of the country.

However, everything has two sides. This kind of system is very suitable to be implemented in a period of peaceful development, but if it is placed in a period of turmoil or war, it will be too inefficient, because the final result it produces is a compromise plan, and

It is not the best plan, so it is relatively low in response and efficiency. It is likely to affect the country's response speed in the war and lose the best opportunity.

Another prominent issue of this system is transparency. Political transparency is very high. This issue can be viewed from two aspects. On the one hand, higher political transparency can prevent corruption to the greatest extent. But for a country and government,

In other words, many of its policies and data cannot be hidden. Just like the situation mentioned above, it doesn't matter in peacetime. But if it is in wartime and you are not a powerful country, then it will be difficult for you.

Hide yourself in a corner to hide your own strength.

Democracy and dictatorship are two completely different political systems. Relatively speaking, the democratic system is more comprehensive. It will not make big mistakes because of the decisions of a certain person or certain people, but it will not make big profits either.

It is more moderate; while the system of dictatorship completely depends on the ability of a certain person or certain people, it is more moderate than

At the extreme end, if the person who implements this system has very high abilities and very accurate judgment, then the results it will produce will be very good, and the efficiency will far exceed that of a moderate democratic system. But if the person who implements this system makes a mistake, then it will be harmful.

Sex is also huge. And it is irreparable because it has no ability to heal itself.

Specific to the South China Sea Federation itself, Liu Fu will not fully roll out this democratic system for the time being, because the Federation is still in a state of conquering the country, and the Federation has Liu Fu, a great figure who has been known for 500 years. In the country,

It has a great advantage in decision-making and direction. This is the reason why the South China Sea Federation can rise rapidly under the scrutiny of the great powers.

But Liu Fu did not intend to keep the country in a dictatorial state forever, because he could not survive forever. The reason why he did not want offspring was because he was afraid that when he was old, out of a father's paternal love and selfishness, he would

He can't help but regard this country as his inheritance and pass it on to his son or daughter. In this way, the South China Sea Federation, a country he has worked so hard to establish, will go down the same old path again, passed down from one generation to another, and eventually decline in a certain generation.

Hands, because no one can guarantee that his descendants will be heroes among men.

Therefore, Liu Fu has now begun to plan the future development direction of the federation, that is, how to develop healthily and sustainably without his own intervention. According to Liu Fu's own plan, the federal government will slowly move toward a compromise system.

In terms of transformation, the pace cannot be too fast, but must be done bit by bit. Liu Fu will disperse various powers bit by bit. Only when all departments gradually become familiar with and master this system, will he

Eventually, he handed over control of the military and powerful institutions, and finally faded out of the federal decision-making level.

The timetable Liu Fu set for himself is 15 years, because the Federation currently has two major problems that need to be solved. One is to use the opportunity of World War II to fully occupy Australia, and the other is how to make the Federation undefeated in World War II.

land and ultimately obtain more war dividends. Regarding these two issues, Liu Fu does not believe that there is any person or organization in the South China Sea Federation who can understand this war better than himself, even if all the talented people in the world put together

, Liu Fu also felt that he was better than them.

In addition to starting to gradually decentralize power and guide the federal government to transform into a compromise system, Liu Fu currently has two important tasks that need attention, scientific research and intelligence. As the economic crisis intensifies, all the major powers in the world are busy saving themselves and are temporarily suspended.

country to country, region to region

Various trials and confrontations between regions. Although now due to economic pressure, the federal government cannot allocate too much funds for external expansion, but Liu Fu does not intend to waste this precious time and cannot directly take action, but

Not only must intelligence collection work not stop, it must also be strengthened.

Originally, two departments were responsible for this work, the Federal Ministry of the Interior and the Federal Ministry of Defense Military Intelligence Service. These two independent intelligence agencies, which have no jurisdiction over each other, have almost become flies laying eggs everywhere in these years, and their traces can be found all over the world.

, Asia, Europe and North America are the traditional focus of intelligence work. Each country in these three continents has branches of these two departments. However, the Military Intelligence Bureau does not scan all intelligence like the Foreign Affairs Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It only monitors

Interested in defense, military and technological intelligence.

The Foreign Affairs Department of the Federal Ministry of the Interior is even more gossipy. Its intelligence personnel are very complex. They include agents with federal professional training, temporarily recruited people from various countries, and government officials from the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Commerce, and foreign agencies.

, as well as illegal organizations and gang members in many parts of the world. Anyway, they inquire about everything, including regime change in the country where they are located, palace secrets, and even the streets.

rumors, and then these messages will be fed back step by step to the Ministry of Internal Affairs building in the federal capital. The entire three underground floors of this building are the intelligence analysis center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and various fragmentary news are being transmitted back here.

After that, there will be intelligence personnel who are responsible for a certain country or a certain city to carefully analyze it, and then the useful information will be classified and archived, and the useless garbage will be eliminated.

Don't underestimate this kind of intelligence aggregation work like garbage collection. More than half of the important information is extracted and analyzed from these inconspicuous messages, gossip, gossip, and ordinary reports. Within the Intelligence Analysis Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs

The staff are all very professional intelligence analysis experts. Ordinary people may look at a newspaper report and find it important information.

However, the annual budget of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is also very large. The Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Finance have repeatedly suggested that Liu Fu appropriately reduce the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but Liu Fu pushed back. Judging from the amount of annual government appropriations

, this department not only has not been abolished, but has also become larger and larger.

In fact, it is not that Liu Fu has a special preference for the secret police, but that in the current situation, Liu Fu has a high demand for the breadth and accuracy of intelligence sources. Because the South China Sea Federation has few allies, if he

If we don't work hard in this area, the federal government will become short-sighted and unable to see clearly what countries around the world are doing. In addition, because Liu Fu's historical knowledge is really poor, he only remembers most historical events.

He cannot remember the incident itself, but cannot remember the occurrence and end time of the incident. This is a very distressing thing for a president who must always grasp the direction of the country. He has to use intelligence collection and analysis to help him determine many historical facts.

The details of the incident, in a sense, the intelligence analysis center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a part of Liu Fu's own brain. It is mainly used to make up for the forgotten part of Liu Fu's brain.

After entering 30 years, the focus of the Ministry of the Interior slowly began to shift from Asia and Europe to North America. This change only started after Liu Fu's instructions. For the world war that will happen in the future, the Federal Defense Department

Bu and Liu Fu had already done this

The decision is to support Germany and Italy and let them fight against Britain, France, the Soviet Union and other countries in Europe, while the Federation itself will hold back the United States in the Pacific. In this way, the United States will become the biggest imaginary enemy of the South China Sea Federation in the future and will not pay attention to it.

Who else can we pay attention to?

In terms of comprehensive national strength comparison, Liu Fu believes that the South China Sea Federation does not have much advantage. In 30 years, the United States had a land area of ​​more than 9 million square kilometers, while the South China Sea Federation only had 3.85 million square kilometers (including the former Philippine Islands).

, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, eastern Thailand, southern Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Java, New Guinea, the Moluccas and the Lesser Sunda Islands), the United States is almost

The South China Sea Federation is three times larger.

The huge difference in land area partly determines the huge difference in resources. The United States covers almost all resources, and Canada to the north is rich in products, so it lacks nothing and can rely on nothing in the war.

Imports. Compared with the United States, the South China Sea Federation is much worse. Although the federation has everything, the reserves are not very large, especially in terms of iron ore reserves. The federation still has a big gap, so from the strategic reserve

In general, the United States completely defeated the South China Sea Federation.

By 30 years, the total population of the United States had reached 123 million, while the South China Sea Federation had less than 50 million. From this point of view, the population of the United States was two and a half times that of the Federation. Therefore, once a war comes, the United States will

The military resources of the United States will be much richer than that of the Federation, so in terms of military reserves, the United States will also completely defeat the South China Sea Federation.

In addition, from the perspective of the country's surrounding situation, the United States is located in the North American continent and is separated from Asia and Europe by thousands of miles of sea. It does not have to worry about enemies attacking it from land, so it can save a large part of its annual military expenses.

.Looking at its neighboring countries, one is Canada and the other is Mexico. These two countries are basically no different from the two provinces of the United States. They will never become hostile to the United States during the war. On the contrary, they will immediately

Become an ally of the United States. (To be continued...)
