Chapter two hundred and sixty-six: Knowing that I sin against me
Many times, the fate of small countries is not in their own hands, but in the hands of neighboring large countries or other large countries.
This is not only true for small countries, but also for all weak countries. To this day, Xiong Yan can still remember when he was very young and lived in his grandma's house. At that time, there were a lot of newspapers on the walls of his grandma's house.
He remembered that the newspaper facing him was filled with dense news, but most of the words were relatively small and were on the top of the wall, so they couldn't be read clearly.
Only the five big characters on the title can be seen clearly - Weak countries have no diplomacy!
When he was young, Xiong Yan didn't understand what this sentence meant. It wasn't until later, when he went to junior high school and studied history, that he suddenly discovered that the newspaper he saw when he was a child was about the past events of the Republic of China.
And weak countries without diplomacy may be one of the most condensed representations of those past years.
At that time, Daxia was still a period of Qing Dynasty, when foreigners were carrying out colonial rule. They followed the policy of never stopping to please foreigners until the last slave died, and squeezed the Han people to death.
At that time, a certain Qing Dynasty was submissive externally and aggressive internally. It seemed that foreigners were the real masters.
For a certain ruler of the Qing Dynasty at that time, it was not important to cede land and pay compensation, nor was it important to pay hundreds of millions of taels of silver. Anyway, it was just the common people getting one tael of silver each. What did it matter?
Anyway, the foreigners only want their money, not their lives. But once the Han take power and the slaves stand free, it will be life-threatening.
Therefore, this is why a certain Qing Dynasty at that time did not care about ceding territory and paying compensation, but was always very concerned about suppressing the Han people.
But now times have changed, Daxia is the real power!
An island country in the East cannot be said to be weak. No matter from any aspect, the country is not weak. This is also true.
In terms of economy, with the revival of spiritual energy, the country can rank among the top ten countries.
They even combined the supernatural with biochemistry and developed many strange-looking gadgets with special functions.
In terms of transcendence, the country has now developed to the county-level virtual realm. Internationally, it is second only to the research institute and management department, and belongs to the second echelon.
The other four of the five great benevolent people in the world are now at the level of the virtual world at the county level. Their extraordinary progress has caught up with the five great benevolent people, and they cannot be said to be weak in any way.
But who allowed it to be born in the East Asian Monster Room?
The remnants of the Huns who were defeated by the Han Dynasty went to other places, and then Attila, the whip of God, appeared, which made the Western countries miserable.
Later, the Western Liao established by Yelu Dashi, the remnants of the Liao Kingdom, defeated the then-famous Seljuq Empire in the First World War.
Even in modern society, among the East Asian monsters, there are five of the top ten countries in the world in terms of military strength (three if you include those across Asia and other continents).
Many netizens may subconsciously think that Kimchi Country’s military strength is mediocre and they don’t like it at all. However, in fact, Kimchi Country’s military strength may even rank third or fourth among the European countries.
.
This is the East Asian Monster Room!
Here, there lurks a super monster that has occupied the world's number one throne for a long time. When you are a neighbor of such a monster, you can either lie down and expose your soft belly and stop resisting, or you can only be wary, cautious, and do whatever you want.
Beware of Him with all your strength.
After signing more than 20 contracts, Yagyu Mokazu's mood was actually very complicated. On the one hand, he felt that times had changed, and on the other hand, he only felt that only the five good people in the world could control his own destiny.
As for the other countries besides the five good people, they are just resource countries, they are just blood packs, and they are just wipes that the good people can use when they need them.
In this world, all good people are just ants!
A country under the guidance of a virtuous person has no chance to control its own destiny.
If you think you can, that's just a good person who wants to make you think you can, that's all!
Genkazu Yagyu still remembers that he had hinted many times at that time that there were some conditions that a certain country in the East could not decide on its own.
The original idea was to rely on foreign countries to show self-respect, but who knew that Xiong Yan at that time waved his hand indifferently: "Don't worry, I will communicate these issues with the president of the Illuminati, and I believe he will agree."
After all, Xiong Yan has too many cards in his hand that he can play.
As for the technological blockade imposed by Beautiful Country on Daxia, it actually no longer exists.
Ever since Jiang Ju and others were recruited to the research institute by Xiong Yan, and to this day, the new technologies they have researched are already many years ahead of the times.
Of course, the Beautiful Country was, after all, the former global hegemon. It had a profound foundation and many geniuses. Among the geniuses of average interest, they were ahead of Daxia today.
After all, in the past, almost all parts of the world were the talent bases of beautiful countries, and it was difficult for talents from most countries to refuse the recruitment of beautiful countries.
At that time, the beautiful country often only needed to take out a green card and some freshly printed green paper to easily win the heart of a senior intellectual.
This is not an exaggeration, this is not an exaggeration at all.
At that time, most talents from all over the world would be heartbroken when faced with the combination of green paper and green card from the beautiful country, and then happily fall into the arms of the beautiful country.
After the spiritual energy is revived, these average geniuses will not have the chance to return to the country. What's more, it is hard to say whether they are willing to return to the country.
To take a step back, even if they are really patriotic and firmly want to return to their country, it still depends on whether the beautiful country is willing to do so. Otherwise, there will be unforeseen circumstances and misfortunes for everyone.
Therefore, although Daxia has top talents such as Jiang Ju who are constantly developing through cheating, there are also top talents on the opposite side, and there are more mid-level talents on the opposite side. Therefore, although Daxia has a short-term first-mover advantage, in terms of technology, nowadays,
It is only slightly ahead of beautiful countries.
For example, artificial intelligence was invented long ago by Guan Ming, while the other side was developed after fully conquering a certain county-level virtual world.
It is said that a strong artificial intelligence was created at that time, and then, based on the strong artificial intelligence, the super genius on the opposite side absorbed the experience and lessons gained in the virtual world, and then created an artificial retarded person.
Although it is not as smart as Xiao Guanming, it can still be considered to be on the edge of intelligent life. This is the so-called gap, but it is not so big that there is no edge.
After Yanagi Yuanhe signed more than 20 documents, Xiong Yan looked at him who was worried and patted his shoulder gently.
"Yuan Hejun, you are a smart man. Churchill once said that only the victors can write history. The history books of the Great Xia Dynasty have always emphasized a concept, that is, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy."
"You must have enough confidence in the research institute and the management department. In the face of this catastrophic disaster, it will be us and only us who will win in the end. So, at that time, you will be the one writing history books."
"When the world is one, when all countries share a common ancestor (Yan Emperor, Huang Emperor, Fu Xi, Nu Wa), we are one family."
"So, when future generations read history books, they won't say that so and so did what kind of thing, and they are suspected of being traitors."
"At that time, they would only say that our ancestor Yagyu Shengyuanhe once fought against the odds and advocated joining the big Xia family..."
"By then, you will be the most important person and the most dazzling person among the county officials in this region."
"As the saying goes, it's only the Spring and Autumn period that makes you aware of yourself and sins against me!"
You scumbags, how do you have the qualifications to evaluate me, Yagyu Motowa?
Only the Spring and Autumn Period, only history books, and only time can evaluate me, Mr. Liu!
And when Yagyu Shengyuan walked back to the lounge step by step and explained the contents of the contract to the people in the consortium and relevant departments, Xiong Yan came to the other side of the sea with a phone call.
At that time, it was said that the Illuminati president, who was still in the manor holding an ax to prune the cherry trees, was directly called over.
In the Illuminati, Xiong Yan's phone call is more important than many people, so even though there was no reservation for this call, it was still a call sent to the president himself.
Then there was Chu Xuan and the president's secret agent. They talked for about a night, and then what Liu Shengyuan and Liu Shengyuan were worried about were no longer a problem.
This is a small country!
In this world, only five good people can decide whether the world will be in peace or war, and only five good people can decide the future destiny of the world!
Underneath the great virtuous people, all are ants!
And when the Illuminati president hung up the phone, he started the meeting again.
This president is already the third president of the Illuminati.
The first was a priest, the second a knight, and the third, whom everyone called George.
Some people also call it St. George!
This George has an ax at his waist. This ax looks very simple. It is just a black axe, with a gap visible to the naked eye on the ax blade.
Even if you give such an ax to others, no one will want it.
However, when you look closely at this axe, you can vaguely see the spirit of pioneering that unites the whole country and unites as one, regardless of hardships and hardships.
If Lin Er were here, after observing it with his mental power, he would definitely say that this is a humane ax with a wisp of humane belief gathered on it.
On this ax is entrusted with the idea of opening up humanity. No matter how difficult it is, no matter what kind of enemy it is, and no matter whether it is tangible or invisible difficulties and obstacles, it will be split by this ax of opening up.
!
It is said that the second president of the Illuminati, Mr. Knight, after seeing George, bowed his head directly and called him master.
Unexpectedly, George waved his hand, but he didn't bow down at all, and then he was helped up by George.
From then on, the president voluntarily resigned from his position as president and called himself George's guardian knight. Not long after, representatives of the major financial groups in the beautiful country gathered in Washington to meet this Saint George.
Soon after, George became the third president of the Illuminati.
Since taking office, he has been wise and courageous and carried out drastic reforms. He has united various groups internally and strengthened investment in the Extraordinary Alliance externally.
Today, the phone call between Xiong Yan and Chu Xuan made George very unhappy. With his bad temper, he wanted to just take an ax and slap Xiong Yan on the head.
It's a pity that he can't do it!
But after learning from the experience, George felt that he could not continue like this, so he had to hold a meeting and announce a more radical decree.
"Although I hate Daxia very much, I must admit that in terms of transcendence, we are indeed a step behind compared to the opposite research institute and management department."
"It's not because of you, it's because we were too stupid to understand the secret code you taught us. Otherwise, we wouldn't still be lagging behind." Guardian Knight John said.
George waved his hand: "No, my skills are only suitable for me, not for you. Moreover, my skills are a product of the previous era after all. If they are effective now, it is already very good. As for being completely effective, that is not
Possible."
"Although everyone has worked very hard, the gap between us and the research institute and the management department is indeed getting wider and wider. What do you think we should do?"
After a moment, George smiled slightly: "When we first founded the country, although we were determined to compete with the Gentleman Country, we were indeed no match. The capital at that time was completely destroyed by the enemy."
"The capital is gone. No matter how you look at it, it looks like the country is about to fall. At that time, people inside were panicked, and the power of the gentleman country outside was getting stronger and stronger. You know how I led everyone to successfully resist and win.
Of?"
"It was because you were wise, decisive and good at fighting that you finally drove away the Japanese from a certain country!" This is John Knight.
"It was because you were good at observation and gained the support of the local capital at that time. Therefore, although the Gentry Country is stronger, as long as they do not defeat you from the beginning, their power will only become weaker and weaker. And you have the advantage of local capital.
Support will only get stronger and stronger!" This is the representative of the capitalists.
"It's because our productivity is already quite strong, especially the industrial production capacity. Not only has it not weakened with the war, but it has become stronger..." This is a representative of the scientist.
After listening to a circle of opinions, George smiled slightly: "No, these are not the main reason. St. Louis's help!"
In order to show respect, George also added the word "sacred" in front of Louis' name. Everyone present couldn't help laughing.
If St. Louis hadn't sold himself to aid the beautiful country and started wars with the gentle country all over the world, St. George would not have been able to succeed even if he was ten times more powerful.
"So, this time we can't surpass each other on our own, but it doesn't matter. I've looked up modern history. Since modern times, the most outstanding scientists in the world have been in the West."
"So, next I order that we will do everything we can to unite the countries and turn the sages from reality into reality!"
