If you don't want to be betrayed, you must investigate the truth, but the young man's ability is limited, so he can only go to Du Lan, this history teacher who talks a lot about truth.
"Young men, you can create miracles." Dulan was naturally very happy to see that two more young men had awakened and had the courage to explore the truth.
But Suzuhara Touji, a guy in sportswear, said: "Teacher, can Kensuke and I not participate in the special jeep training? We don't drive EVA."
When Shinji Ikari heard that his good friend had sold him, he immediately said unhappily: "Didn't we agree that we should share the same responsibility if there is any difficulty?"
"We will support you mentally, but you are the pilot of Unit 1, and we are not." Suzuhara Touji said, and the bespectacled military guru beside him also nodded repeatedly.
"You have your own training." Duran said: "Anyway, I am very happy that the three of you can come here. Next, we are going to see how big this world is."
Dulan will take the three of them to see the situation in the world, see orphans, see terminally ill patients, see the disabled and other vulnerable groups.
Let Shinji Ikari see that there are many people who are worse off than him. His mother died and he was separated from his father. However, some people did not have parents at the beginning because the second impact fifteen years ago caused the population to be halved, so many
The children's parents were all gone immediately.
Shinji Ikari's parents were still alive at least before he was five years old, and he also felt the warmth of his mother's arms, otherwise he would not remember the taste of his mother. So he is not actually the worst. If he leaves the third New Tokyo City and the island country, he will see
Many people are suffering, especially in backward areas.
The island country also has a Third New Tokyo City under construction. After being hit, the world's resources can still be tilted towards this country. In Seele's plan, the Third New Tokyo City will serve as the main battlefield for the Apostle's operations and will be equipped with five EVAs.
, Unit 0, Unit 1, Unit 2, Unit 3, and Unit 6. Therefore, a large amount of military resources are required. A large number of weapons cannot be transported alone. Factories must be built in the island country, so the economy of the island country relies on Seele's large
The investment has recovered very well after fifteen years.
And some countries with no strategic value, backward areas, without any resource tilt, can only rely on themselves to restore the economy, which is truly miserable.
Maybe Shinji Ikari has seen it on TV before, or maybe he hasn't cared about it. Now Dulan will take them to see what the world will really look like fifteen years from now.
The second impact fifteen years ago not only led to the extinction of marine life, a sharp decline in population, but also the fixation of the earth's axis. For example, it is always summer in island countries, and there are no longer changes in the four seasons. The climate changes are very huge.
The climate in many places has become uninhabitable.
Coupled with the decline in population, the human economy has been in a slump for fifteen years. For example, in coastal areas, fishermen have completely become history. Because it is difficult to fish out a fish from the sea, and there are no fish in the blood-red sea water.
The red seawater is more like amniotic fluid, where new life is brewing, but this process may take hundreds of millions of years.
The areas that have failed to recover economically are truly miserable. There are orphans everywhere and the public security is in a mess. Here, a pack of biscuits can be exchanged for a slave of about the same age as a teenager.
"I never thought there was such a place on earth." Shinji Ikari said in shock.
"This is because the island country is the decisive battleground, and the world's resources are tilted towards the Third New Tokyo City. Building material factories, military factories, and many heavy industry factories have all been built in a short period of time. In addition, the island country's population is not
Therefore, when some people complain about the apostles coming to the island country, they should also imagine that if the apostles had not landed on the island country, would the island country have been able to recover its economy on its own?"
Obviously it is not possible. If the island country could develop on its own, there would be no need to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty or leave Asia and join Europe. The island country is restricted by geography, and the upper limit of its development is visible to the naked eye. Therefore, some artistic works turn the island country into a stage in a reasonable way.
, we have to let monsters attack. After all, monsters are also a resource. Of course, some works directly say that the island country has a rare energy or has developed a black technology, so the island country has become the world's stage. Of course, there are also island countries
They are strategic partners of some big countries and play a role in geopolitics, so island countries have become the stage.
Monsters, rare energy, black technology, and geographical effects are the main reasons why island countries become the stage in fantasy works.
These are all beside the point. We still have to talk about economic issues. Although the second impact fifteen years ago was publicized as a meteorite impact, the damage was real. Many local economies were in ruins, and the marine fishery was completely destroyed.
In addition, the population has been reduced by half, and the labor force has been reduced unprecedentedly. Not to mention that Seele informed that the apostles are coming, causing everyone to restore heavy industry first and build neuron facilities first, and then light industry.
Therefore, many areas have returned to the era of planned economy. After all, there are a lot less resources and a lot less labor force. Although consumption has also been reduced, in the face of the problem of the apostles coming, the development of heavy industry first and then light industry is still the same, so
Everyone must tighten their belts.
Of course, a country that tightens its belt is an organized country, and a country without organization is naturally in chaos. This is where Duran and three teenagers saw a place where a pack of biscuits can be exchanged for a slave.
"Okay, the three of you will live here for the next three days." Duran said suddenly.
The three teenagers were so confused. It was scary just to look at it. How could they live here? How could they live? The three of them with thin arms and legs would be swallowed up by this chaotic area.
"What do you think is combat effectiveness? Survival is combat effectiveness. When fighting, neither offensive nor defensive warfare can reflect combat effectiveness, because both sides have fixed territories, fixed supplies and logistics. Only mobile warfare in the wild can truly experience combat effectiveness.
Yes, because there are not only battles, but also logistical pressures. Sometimes you have to solve the logistics yourself and find ways to survive. So you must learn to exercise and remember that survival means losing something in exchange for the food and water needed for survival. Remember
You have to learn to exchange and compromise." Dulan said that to improve combat effectiveness, only muscles are not enough, but also strategic thinking. Strategic thinking actually means knowing what you have and what others have, and then turning other people's advantages into your own.
, this requires practice.
Duran kicked the three teenagers off the invisible plane and picked them up three days later.
Looking at the plane disappearing at supersonic speed, the three teenagers were at a loss.
"This place is so chaotic, how can there be any exchange merchants?" Suzuhara Touji was desperate, they must have been hungry for three days.
Of course, you can starve for three days, but this is just the beginning. In the future, Duran will gradually increase the time span of survival. First three days, then five days, then seven days, and finally maybe one month. They cannot stay hungry forever, they must learn
trade.
"There is order in chaos." Kensuke Aida said: "When there is order, there must be exchange. As long as we are careful, we will definitely be able to exchange for food."
"Don't they know how to rob?" "There are only three of us. Even if we can trade, they can refuse. Wouldn't it be more convenient to just rob us?" Suzuhara Touji said fearfully.
"It's possible, but it's also possible to agree to a trade. After all, we only need a little bit of food. If we rob it, we will fight back and it may hurt both sides. I think there is no need to risk our lives for things that can be obtained through trade." "So.
The point is that we must consider fighting first, and the teacher did not say that unity through struggle will lead to survival. As long as they realize that the losses from robbing us are greater than trading, then they will definitely choose to trade."
It has to be said that in this strange environment, Juntaku's stability was reflected, and he immediately became the backbone of the other two people. Shinji Ikari is a child, Suzuhara Touji is an ordinary boy, and Juntaku is a reliable wise general.
