New Year's Eve passed quickly, but in the year 2289 of the Qin Dynasty, the flames of war did not go out, but gradually began to spread around the world.
Because, in today's world, industrialized countries are extremely hungry. In this world, no matter how submissive a weak country is, it cannot avoid being beaten, because a strong country just wants to eat meat.
To the northeast of China, a hot war broke out between the four provinces of Izumo and Edenia in a series of islands in the North Pacific region derived from Alaska. Underwater submarines hunted each other in the vast North Pacific, and the surface ships and air forces of both sides were also separated. Interactive deployment near the Command Strait (Bering Strait).
The entire military force in the Lingbei region of Shenzhou cannot be mobilized elsewhere.

Lizhou (Australia) in the south also suffered an invasion from the Shengyang Naval Faction.
The huge China was like a trend in the late Tang Dynasty. The huge territory created in the early years could no longer be defended and was invaded and encroached by foreign forces such as Tubo.
It can also be said to be the ending of the British Empire in the main world.
When it is strong, it is very glorious that the sun and the moon never set on the global territory, but when its national power is weak, even Argentina jumps out to provoke.

Shengyang, the new foreign enemy that China was forced to define after the industrial age, really lives up to historical expectations and has considerable resilience, with the potential to entangle China for hundreds of years.
Looking back at history, it was the same with the Xiongnu and Turks back then. One or two battles in the Han and Tang Dynasties could only severely damage them. To really wipe them out in the long river of history, it often had to wait until one or two dynasty changes.
In the Chilean region of South America, heavy steel buildings cover the entire city along the coastline.
Pieces of large metal materials were sent to the construction factory along the industrial railway track code-named "Shinkansen". Under the operation of precise and large-scale welding robots, they turned into magnificent sea monsters.
The "Shogunate Type 8" battleship and the empire's ace Hachiko "Floating Fortress" are being built in this row of several hundred meters of docks.
Sunrise construction workers riding automatic walking machines are as small as ants on an elephant in this steel frame construction factory.
~
The commanders, who were equally small, boarded the bridge of the battleship under construction. The generals, all dressed in uniforms from decades ago, held sabers and looked at the industrial behemoths under their command, with flashes in their eyes. excited.
In the last world war, Dalang's authority declined after successive defeats, and he had to purge his father Fanglang and the king's old ministers, well, or in other words, the old military group. Then the power of Shengyang was completely concentrated in On the emerging military group that he promoted.
Dalang's final madness led to the complete split of Shengyang. The suppressed Shengyang old school group later stayed in the Shengyang Islands, turned to China, and became followers of the Jiedushi rule of the four provinces of Izumo.
~
The new faction of Shengyang was defeated and retreated to South America! This retreat was a major technological retreat by Shengyang.
Shengyang has lost many early large-scale weapon technologies. For example, the Shogun Executioner, the big-head-shaped floating fortress, and the Shogun Battleship.
South America's Rising Sun has cherished its "ancient technology" for a long time. However, twenty years ago, they re-accumulated their technology. They restored the large battleships and super-large aerial weapons from the ancient drawings, and because of the design, they were more Reasonable, energy core, intelligent control is more advanced, and it is better than in the past.
~
However, history is reincarnated. As the South American Sun has completed its technology, the back wavers who were overthrown by Dalang have now become the new elders and powerful men, repeating the old problems of the Sun Empire.
On the Chilean port dock, workers were staring at the electric sparks between the huge steel, and suddenly felt the sky darken.
They looked up and saw a five-hundred-meter-long floating warship in the sky, blocking the sunlight. There was a clear golden chrysanthemum emblem on the bow of the ship.
The generals at the port had already boarded mechas that were much more advanced than the Tengu mechas and entered the large battleship at high altitude.
Hokusai Ming, the great-grandson of Shengyang's contemporary Shengyang King Dalang.
Compared to his great-grandfather hundreds of years ago, who was always wearing armor and holding a sword in hand, this Shengyang King today is the effeminate style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
~
In the central hall of the battleship, Hokusai Ming sat on the throne, looking at the generals kneeling respectfully below, his expression neither sad nor happy. But in his heart, he could only pretend to be a clay sculpture.
When China and North America were at war with each other near the Arctic Circle in Northeast Asia, the European continent was plunged into war again.
Various military and political factions in the rising sun in South America felt that opportunities had come..."Enter Africa eastward", "Enter Australia westward", "Go northward to the Caribbean"...
Note that each faction feels that the strategic direction it has set has great "opportunities", but they cannot convince each other. Every meeting ends up being rude and disrespectful.
Not only were the conflicts on land and sea unresolved back then, but as South America became larger and broader, more regional differences arose, leading to more factions now.
As the nominal leader of Shengyang, Hokusai Ming is not unaware of the current problems, but Shengyang is unable to solve them.
In the past, Shengyang was a vassal state of China for hundreds of years and a cultural dependency for thousands of years. The royal family of Shengyang has not given up its study of China's culture.
The more the Shengyang royal family delved into the history of China, the more terrifying they felt.
After Shengyang obtained a new continent, the situation at this time can only be said to be equivalent to that of the land of China more than two thousand years ago. As the majesty of Emperor Zhou gradually lost its power, the vassal states in the region began to fight, and then treated Emperor Zhou as a toy. driven by.
Hokusai Ming understands that this is his current position.
As the nominally most powerful person in Shengyang, he cannot use his majesty to mediate in the conflicts between the various factions, but can only consume the various factions in the conflicts.
In other words: in this world war, "preserve the vitality of Shengyang to contain the princes" or "preserve the authority of the Shengyang royal family", this is a "choice between two" for Hokusai Ming. Of course, in fact, he You can only choose the latter.
In the past two years, this warship, which represents the majesty of the Sun Royal Family, has traveled between various factions.

Now, Hokusai Ming was sitting on the high seat in the middle of the Japanese-style hall. After listening to the discussion of the South American west coast faction factions on the right and the assurances of the samurai generals on the left, the rising sun king gave "meet faction factions in other areas." the same attitude.
Hokusai Ming tacitly supports the actions of this faction. But he will not express his position clearly and take responsibility for this faction.
The generals bowed and bid farewell to the King of the Rising Sun. The heavy curtains of the honor guard as they left were reflected on the metal floor of the battleship hall. The generals with their heads on the ground received the imperial permission and cut the ropes tied around their necks. Well, the next step is to be bold.
If the adventure fails, then you have to commit seppuku. If it succeeds, then you can form a cabinet in front of the emperor.
To say that Hokusai Ming is the mastermind of the war may be an exaggeration, but he is a complete connivoker!
[In the modern times of the main world, when people in the East looked at their neighbor with only a strip of water, they always heard their own official claim that "a small group of xx elements are trying to revive the dream of the empire", and they couldn't help but wonder what the attitude of most of the people on the island was? The answer is: Most people are indulgents.]
The connivers will acquiesce to the mastermind's plan and contribute silently to the mastermind's plan. If the mastermind succeeds, they will share the benefits of success. But if the mastermind fails, the connivers will claim that they were coerced after decades of silence. of.
