The Resistance Army is not as good as the Soviet Union back then. The Soviet Union's economic level can still be maintained at a certain level. Even if it plummets, there will be a period of time. But the Resistance Army is different. It seems that they have a large rear area and logistics, but in fact
All these things are used to maintain the military, which is exactly the same as North Korea back then. Without correctly judging the overall strength, it blindly increased the size of its military, eventually leading to economic collapse.
The military is a basic way to maintain national defense and contain war, but it must also be balanced with national life. Otherwise, once there is a big deviation in the balance, it will fundamentally affect economic development.
In history, after the start of global industry, energy has almost become the lifeblood of the economy. Whoever controls energy controls everything. Without energy, no matter how powerful your country is, it will be paralyzed in an instant and become a decoration.
"So, the focus now is on new energy. On the one hand, Shang Du is looking for new energy, and at the same time, he is also looking for other relics about ancient humans, so as to dig out the accurate use of the Four Sacred Relics. As long as they find it, they can
They swallowed up the resistance army without any scruples, and now, they need the resistance army to maintain the war situation." Gu Yan explained in detail. Tang Shuxing looked at Gu Yan and asked: "What does maintaining the war situation mean?"
"Shangdu unified the world. If there were no natural disasters in the world, they might have killed the resistance army long ago. However, due to the frequent occurrence of natural disasters, they kept giving up the places they previously occupied. At the same time, Shangdu's domestic economic situation also deteriorated.
It’s not good, because a single country can’t talk about foreign trade, and the situation continues to get worse, and the country’s internal
There will be endless conflicts. As long as the resistance army exists, they can transfer this conflict to the past." Gu Yan shook his head and said, "Just like how many brothers in the family are fighting for the property, and they are fighting over it, and outsiders appear. They also have to fight for this.
At that time, the brothers can only work together to deal with outsiders, and they will also give a period of time to resolve the conflict, or temporarily cover it up."
Tang Shuxing thought for a while and said: "What you said makes sense, but I am very confused. What do you Chichen want to do?"
"Before we find a complete solution, we have to maintain the balance." Gu Yan looked at Tang Shuxing, "Are you surprised? We are not on the side of the Resistance Army, nor are we on Shangdu's side.
.”
Tang Shuxing was not surprised. He just sat directly on the cold chair. He looked at Gu Yan and said: "This is in line with Zhan Tianya's usual principles of doing things, but I still don't understand what you are trying to do. You are using me as a knife."
, you have to explain why you become a spear user, right? At least I’m not your enemy, right?” “You’ll know when the time comes.” Gu Yan still answered, “Because I have to rely on you for this matter.”
"Rely on me? You don't want to make it clear. We'll talk about it later. It depends on my mood." Tang Shuxing also deliberately pretended to be careless.
The broken ship drove swaying in the sea for more than an hour. It finally arrived at the Dragon Island that Gu Yan mentioned.
This island used to be an unknown island. Later, after coal was discovered, the Russians and Americans mined here and mined for many years. Not only did the coal be dug out, dinosaur fossils were also dug out, and scientific research organizations and businesses followed.
People started a years-long quarrel over whether the island was used for research or mining. The matter even caused the United Nations at the time to come forward to resolve it - because the Russians and Americans who were doing business began to join forces.
Use force to expel those researchers.
In the end, the matter was mediated by the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, and Norway, which belongs to the archipelago. The two parties reached an agreement that miners must notify the scientific research organization as soon as possible when discovering fossils. The scientific research organization, after discussing with the other company,
Only by excavating certain places and paying a certain amount of fees, after all, the ownership of the development of the island is in the hands of the other party.
"Did you know? A fairly complete dinosaur fossil was excavated on this island, and the body of this velociraptor is still very complete." Gu Yan put on his own equipment on the boat and checked the weapons.
Tang Shuxing had finished dressing up a long time ago and yawned: "Is there such a thing? Did you say it or not? What are you doing here? You said you came to Long Island to look for fossils. I think you just meant it for that person.
The Tu Emperor listened, and then you told me that you were looking for new fuel, but I still didn’t believe it.”
After Gu Yan zipped it up, he put on his multifunctional backpack and said, "Okay, to be honest, I brought you here to go diving."
"Diving?" Tang Shuxing's mind was in a mess, and he had no choice but to follow Gu Yan towards the center of the island. At this time, the snow wind had already started to blow. In another two hours, the snow wind would increase several times.
Even if two people are very close to each other, they will become separated if they are not careful, and then they will soon be covered in heavy snow and become a frozen corpse.
The two of them were completely unable to speak. The only thing that connected them was a rope. As Gu Yan walked, he looked at the small instrument in his hand and walked forward. After walking for a long time, they could already see abandoned machinery everywhere. Most of the machinery
The exterior was wrapped in a layer of ice, and many houses collapsed because of the heavy snow cover. Only some large containers could support it.
Gu Yan pointed to the location of the container and motioned for them to go there to hide from the snow and wind. Then he walked over with Tang Shuxing. The two of them worked together to open the door of the container, then went in and closed the door.
After closing the door, Gu Yan pulled out the burning rod, looked at the instruments that had been frozen in the container, and then smiled: "Do you think a mining company would use these high-precision instruments here?
?”
Tang Shuxing looked closely. Although he didn't understand, he also knew that miners would definitely not need these things, just like medical equipment. He just didn't understand why they were left here?
"There are many secrets on this island. In addition to coal and fossils, there are other things." Gu Yan stood there and smiled, "Before the war broke out, this was an absolute secret between the United States and Russia. It was managed by separate intelligence departments.
Responsible, even the president and the people in the White House don't know. Just to keep it secret, the people doing research here have not left for more than ten years. I heard from the boss that anyone who dares to leave without permission will be shot directly. Then they will be said to be missing.
In the snowy wind."
Tang Shuxing looked around, then suddenly turned around and said, "You want to say that this is the ruins of ancient humans?"
Gu Yan smiled: "You finally figured it out. How can you understand such a simple question now?"
Tang Shuxing shook his head: "Where? Under the mine?"
"No. No, the entire island is a ruins, because the coal dug out has never been transported out, and everything leaving the island will undergo strict scrutiny." Gu Yan looked around, "This secret is even kept secret by the Tu Emperor.
Even he didn’t know that before the war broke out, all the people here died and were silenced. The group of completely brainwashed agents who participated in the annihilation operation also committed suicide later. They thought that no one would know the secret anymore. But there was one person
Survived."
Tang Shuxing looked at Gu Yan: "One of you survived? How did you escape?"
"It's a woman named Vivian, a biological scientist. At that time, she got a strange disease. She was worried about being infected, so she was quarantined. In fact, everyone just gave up on her because it was impossible to find any special medical treatment.
The team came to treat her, which would leak the secret, so Vivian ran away in advance. This woman's life
Big, it was summer. She swam to another island and survived in a warehouse, but she got severe pneumonia." Gu Yan looked closely at a compression box next to him, "Then...she found something on that island.
After a long time, I finally found a hiding place. That place is called 'Doomsday Bank'."…
"What?" Tang Shuxing leaned to one side, took out a piece of chocolate and was about to put it into his mouth.
"Doomsday Bank!" Gu Yan rubbed his hands. "Also called the Global Seed Vault, this multi-million dollar project was built in a cave on that island because it is not easily affected by the outside temperature. Even if there is no
Electricity and seeds can also be continuously stored in low-temperature environments. The outside world knows that the warehouse was built in 2007, and it was claimed that the construction was completed in 2008. In fact,
It was actually built until 2015. It stores the seeds of 4.5 million crops on the earth. We are worried that environmental changes or devastating disasters will lead to the extinction of crop species. In fact, there is also a biological gene bank hidden there, containing all the energy on the earth.
The DNA of the found creatures is stored in that place, and the latter discovery was seen by the woman named Vivian."
Tang Shuxing became interested: "Tell me carefully, how did you know?"
"Vivian got severe pneumonia in that place, and it was never cured. She knew she was dead, so she used the most unexpected method. She recorded everything she knew on the computer and copied the text
Put the data into a memory card, then put the memory card into a compression can and wear a life jacket
She jumped into the sea with the compression tank and committed suicide. She froze to death, but her body did not rot." Gu Yan also ate chocolate. "Her body was later picked up by the Eurasian troops in Siberia and was finally delivered to the boss.
, no one was interested in this at the time, but the boss saved the text data."
"There are several purposes? One is to find out the ruins, and the other is to find out about the Doomsday Bank, right?" Tang Shuxing asked, "These are all chips, chips for the Doomsday Gambling Game."
"Yes, our purpose is to find out what is in this ruins. Secondly, we also need to find out what is in the Doomsday Bank. Since it cost tens of millions of dollars to build, I think there must be more than just that woman in this Doomsday Bank.
As advertised in the news, only these items are stored, there must be others." Gu Yan ate the chocolate, "So everything is unknown, and we also hope that if we can find out how to use the sacred objects from the ruins, then
Let’s take one step first.”
"Understood, as long as you understand how to convert it into energy, you have found out how to destroy holy objects, right?" Tang Shuxing nodded, "My mission is still the same as seven years ago, with those holy objects.
It matters."
"Almost, let's rest for an hour. After an hour, no matter how big the wind and snow are, we have to move on." After Gu Yan finished speaking, he shrank to the side, closed his eyes and began to rest.
Tang Shuxing leaned to one side and looked at him, feeling that things were not as simple as Gu Yan said. Zhan Tianya always likes to take his time, tempting you step by step to move in the direction he set, and eventually deviating from you.
The direction he wants to take to achieve his goal.
