Chapter 554: Chu Siyuan's Preliminary Research
Li Chuan issued the order to withdraw the team, and all members put away the equipment and returned to the shuttle. The hatch door slowly closed, and the engine started, and the aircraft slowly took off with the roar.
The shuttle climbed all the way, whistling and roaring over the southwest of the supercontinent.
There is a huge freshwater lake here, about three-quarters of the earth's Lake Baikal area. The lake shore is built with a large number of unnatural buildings with wooden structures, like a huge water village.
The calm water surface splashed from time to time, and some "snake-like" amphibious creatures surfaced, winding along wooden stakes like snakes and climbing up their built "houses". Several young "snake-like people" lined up to dive and play.
They have rich facial expressions to express emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and fear. This "snake-like" community, which regards this lake as its home, lives a life without war, knows how to breed and hunt, and the ethnic group is constantly expanding, driving this community to expand its food sources and knows how to allocate reasonably.
But this is far from enough. We must further expand the hunting scope and expand production capacity in order to meet the increasing population and expand the survival of the population.
This is the fuse that creates inevitable conflict, because there is also a community 745 kilometers away, and it is only a matter of time before the two meet.
At this moment, a continuous roar came from the sky, and a shuttle passed by the lake, and it was Li Chuan and his friends.
This scene prompted the "snake-like people" below the lake, the water village, and the shore to look up one after another. The "snake-like people" were communicating with each other, discussing the huge flying objects that suddenly appeared in the sky just now. Humans could not hear their communication because the communication they emitted was high-frequency ultrasound, similar to dolphins. Humans must use corresponding electronic devices to obtain their communication information.
There are birds on this planet, but this is the first time they have seen such a huge "bird".
Soon, the leader of this community ordered a team of more than 20 "snake-like men" to head towards the direction where the shuttle was whistling. Because the arrival of Li Chuan and others prompted the two communities that were unknown to each other to speed up the encounter. If the shuttle did not come, the two communities might have met later.
...
Sixteen minutes and fourteen seconds after takeoff, the shuttle entered the outer sky, and the quantum encrypted beacon released by the "Wentian" spacecraft in high-altitude orbit guided the shuttle forward.
The aircraft was very quiet and the atmosphere was quite deserted. Everyone looked solemn. Even a talkative Cock was much more honest at this time. All this stemmed from Li Chuan's words "The army will deal with it", which means that humans will launch a war of extermination against the indigenous civilizations on this planet.
Li Chuan glanced at the silent Sarasig. Everyone was speechless. Then he murmured to himself and opened his mouth: "Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is."
The voice echoed, and everyone couldn't help but stop thinking in their hearts, either paying attention, or turning to look at Li Chuan who was talking to himself.
His words come from a novel called Three-Body Problem, and one from a science fiction work by Chinese people. The powerful Three-Body Problem civilization that invades the earth is from the star A of Centaurus. However, the star A of Centaurus in the novel Three-Body Problem is a three-Body Problem, and three stars of the same mass form the three-Body Problem problem that humans have not yet fully explained.
But in reality, Centaurus A is a binary star system. The mass of Proxima Centauri is too small, which is not enough to affect the binary star system and cause complex three-body problems.
"What impressed me the most in the story of the Three Body" Li Chuan said leisurely: "We were all weak and ignorant, and we all had arrogance. Looking back on history, it is because of our arrogance that we claim to be rich in resources in the Celestial Empire and do not need to trade with foreign barbarians. The closeness of the country caused us to miss the era of great navigation, and endless bleeding and humiliation followed. This is the price of arrogance and painful."
After taking a long and deep breath, Li Chuan continued: "In a midsummer night, there are a few flies at home, hiding in the corner. As long as it doesn't come out and buzzing, you will be too lazy to pay attention to them; but if you fall asleep, they suddenly circulate in your ears, and even stop at the tip of your nose and shake your wings, you will definitely slap them. If you don't slap it, you may get up in anger and find insecticides to destroy them. For flies, humans are like gods. We eliminate flies, not because they are ignorant and weak, but because of their arrogance and provocation. Elimination is cruel and ruthless, but it could have hidden in the corner and been at peace with each other."
"They were hidden here, we found them, and now we have to take the initiative to eliminate them..." Sarasig couldn't help but say.
"Thank you, we discovered it early, it's okay if a fly doesn't appear in your field of vision. If it appears, you will slap it to death. Because if you don't slap it to death, it will hatch more flies, lay eggs in your meals, and bring viruses." Li Chuan said.
In the high altitude orbit of the planet, the "Ask the Sky" spacecraft.
Twenty-six minutes later, the shuttle was recovered by the spacecraft. After Li Chuan and others entered the spacecraft, they first went to the isolation cabin to complete disinfection to ensure that they were sterile and toxic.
Ten minutes later, Li Chuan, wearing short-sleeved clothes, came to the living area for dinner. The time on the spacecraft was in sync with the earth. It was lunch time. Chu Siyuan and him sat at the same table. Li Chuan drank a sip of drinking water and said, "Focus on the local indigenous communities in the northern continent, especially their technological level."
The intelligent creatures on this planet have great potential, but the potential is ultimately virtual. The reality is that the current technological level of human beings will definitely crush the local indigenous civilizations, and it will not be difficult to solve this potential hidden danger.
Although humans have an absolute advantage, Li Chuan did not despise it because of this. Arrogance often brings destruction. The painful lessons of history have kept him awake at all times. Li Chuan always maintains absolute rationality in the issue of race and civilization survival, and the continuation of civilization is higher than all interests. Therefore, Proxima Centar civilization must kill it and in the cradle, without any room for bargaining.
How can you allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
Chu Siyuan said while eating: "Based on the existing information, we have come up with some relatively good results."
Li Chuan lowered his head and ate the meal in his work meal, and said, "Let's hear it."
Chu Siyuan took a sip of water and said, "We found that compared with the northern communities, snakelike people on the southern hemisphere's supercontinent, are like South American Indians in the Age of Discovery and Europeans in the European continent. Snakelike people on the supercontinent are still in the tribal era. Some groups have developed texts and cultures, but northern communities have developed more advanced technological civilizations."
Li Chuan looked at him with great interest and listened while eating. Chu Siyuan continued: "As for such a big difference, I personally believe that it is a geographical factor. The northern continental groups are all harsh in the environment, frequent earthquake zones, active volcanic concentration zones, high-latitude areas, barren land, few suitable places to survive, etc. The harsh living environment forces northern communities to accelerate evolution to adapt to the environment to continue. In addition to external environmental factors, there are also disputes between internal ethnic groups. This is mutually causal and related to the harsh living environment. The scarce and high-quality living environment has become the object of competition among communities, and more fierce conflicts are inevitable. In a sense, war is a catalyst for the promotion of civilization, at least we humans are like this."
"But the supercontinent in the south is completely different. Although the largest desert of this planet is here, the overall area of the continent is large enough, more than twice the total of other continents. The continent's kelp is a natural and excellent habitat, especially the northern part of the supercontinent is located in the equatorial area, and the largest tropical rainforest on this planet is also on the supercontinent."
"Relatively speaking, the snake-like community living on the supercontinent is because nature loves them too much, which leads to them being behind. The snake-like people here will not feel hungry and cold in the northern community. They completely do not understand what hunger and cold is. They rarely feel hungry and can easily find food at will. Simply put, the products are too rich, and there is no cold. They basically have no cold feeling.
"If the communities in the northern continent do not have fire, they will have to lie dormant in winter because they are amphibious cold-blooded animals. They dare not lie dormant because they are worried that foreign enemies will take advantage of the situation. Fortunately, they are smart creatures, and the use of fire is changing their dormant characteristics. The southern supercontinent does not have the concept of winter. The community conditions that live on the supercontinent are too good, and they are relatively large and sparsely populated. However, after they are too good, there will be problems of development lag or even stop moving forward. What follows is dissipation and poor organizational ability, and there is not much anxiety and pressure. The progress of civilization is basically measured by organizational ability. The stronger the organizational ability, the greater the division of labor, the higher the degree of development."
"Because of survival pressure and anxiety in northern communities drives them to form greater strength, defeat their opponents, and win the right to survive. Naturally, individuals are strong and large in number. If there are more, social organizational capabilities are required. From the perspective of social science, this will inevitably promote the improvement of the level of civilization development. Therefore, both sides of the war in northern communities are often at the level of millions, and they are all militants. There are occasional conflicts of clans on the southern supercontinent, but there are basically very few of them with levels of over 100,000."
Li Chuan nodded slowly when he heard this and said, "It makes sense. This is a bit like Brazil on Earth. The land area of more than 8.5 million square kilometers is not a little desert. Compared with our natural environment, Brazil is too enviable. The products are too rich. When you look up, you may be a fruit tree. You have a comfortable life. There is no concept of hunger and cold. It also creates poor local ethnic groups' ability to move, resulting in Brazil basically no sense of existence internationally. People's perception of Brazil seems to be basically football and Amazon rainforest. A big country with a size of more than 8 million square kilometers is no longer among the strong countries."
Chu Siyuan smiled and said, "Boss, you really hit the nail on the head. My research and analysis of Proxima Centar civilization is indeed a reference to the laws of human social science."
On the other hand, Li Chuan himself on Earth has begun to act, and a plan to eliminate Proxima Centauri's indigenous civilization has been put on the Secret of the Space Military Commission.
