The Last Planet Nemesis

  After hearing this, Ye Kaifu shook his head and felt slightly worried about the situation on the front line.

  "Oh, I can't help much. I can only work overtime and complete this project as soon as possible!"

  Zhang Yuan asked again: "By the way, how are you using the newly invented chip?"

  "It's pretty good! At least everyone's work efficiency has improved a lot, and their mood has improved. In fact, everyone knows that this improvement in mood is caused by the chip, but they still use it..."

  Zhang Yuan shook his head, "Well, these things will have to be canceled after the war is over. Long-term use may still cause dependence... Special treatment in special times."

  After parting with these engineers, he checked the psychological impact of these new brain chips on the soldiers and engineers. After finding that there were no major problems, he boarded a transport spacecraft and returned to his mothership.

  These chips actually contain a lot of high technology, and scientists in the Unreal Laboratory have also obtained a lot of effective data. I believe they can make further progress in the future.

  He is thinking about the next feasible plan.

  Judging from the several battles with the opponent, the New Humanity's fleet actually did not fall behind, and some performance parameters of the opponent's spacecraft were also analyzed. Everyone is at odds, whoever attacks will have the upper hand.

  Of course, these are just parameter comparisons between small fleets, and it is still unknown how large fleets will fare.

  "All in all, based on the current situation analysis, it is a 50-50 split between one-on-one small spaceships."

  The main reason why we can compete with these veteran fourth-level civilizations at a 50-50 draw is that humans have acquired some electromagnetic technology from the Toss civilization.

  The technology of the Toss people is indeed quite good, a level higher than other civilizations. These electromagnetic technologies make up for the performance of the spacecraft to a certain extent.

  Zhang Yuan is thinking, is it possible for the two parties to communicate and negotiate?

  If the new humans step back a little and give up a small portion of the benefits, then the other party can get out quickly... Of course, this is a more ideal situation, because they are afraid that the other party will be greedy and think that if humans take a step back, they will be cowardly.

  In fact, there are not many people who hold this idea, and the enemy can also negotiate. Is it true that because both sides refuse to give in to each other, they have to fight to the last resort? The combat effectiveness of the Apollo civilization is about twice that of the new human civilization. Is 2 times enough? Of course not enough.

  This is so childish!

  But the premise of this idea is that the new humans must understand each other well enough.

  Now people don't know the ideology of Apollo civilization, the social structure of the opponent, or what the opponent is thinking, whether it is a smart opponent or a stupid opponent.

  As for the current series of deterrence activities, they are all based on the most basic interest relationships.

  If both parties have political norms similar to humans, then there is the possibility of communication. If the Apollo civilization is the kind that will not give up until it achieves its goal, there will be no need for communication...

  After arriving at the mothership, Zhang Yuan went to the captain's room without stopping to attend an internal meeting.

  After finding my seat and sitting down, it was just time for the meeting.

  "They really don't want to negotiate?" a general asked slightly angrily.

  Diplomat Mr. Yang said: "In the past few years, we have negotiated remotely with the Apollo civilization, but the final result was not good. The other party's appetite was too great, and we had to give up a lot of benefits. There is really no sincerity at all in withdrawing troops... and then more time is spent in mutual condemnation..."

  Negotiation can only be carried out after both parties reach a certain tacit understanding. If humans keep asking for negotiations unilaterally, it is easy to show their cowardice and show their guilty conscience, so they dare not always initiate negotiation requests.

  "Do they really want to wait until the end to launch an attack?!" the general asked again.

  "I don't know." Lao Yang spread his hands and whispered: "We have no idea what these damn squids think, they are greedy guys!"

  Zhang Yuan coughed: "So let's introduce the ideology of Apollo civilization in detail. Only by figuring out their ideology can we deal with them better. Haven't we made deals with them?"

  A staff member came to the stage and played the video material at that time, "We had communicated with the Apollo civilization for a period of time and sold the paper on additional color perception. This is the video, please see it for yourself."

  This whole set of video materials is very long. Human negotiators are blushing and negotiating prices with these giant squids. You come and go, and it is very lively.

  No one thought that it was precisely because of the sale of this paper that it became the current trigger.

  Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and carefully considered the words and deeds of these giant squids to judge their logical thinking.

  In this way, a group of people fast forwarded the video for several hours.

  "Based on the negotiation experience at that time, I believe that this civilization should be able to communicate, and the social division of labor model is likely to be similar to ours..."

  "Any fourth-level civilization with a long history should have a set of logical and smooth social operation methods, otherwise it would have collapsed long ago. Even the subsidiary civilizations supported by other civilizations should be species with high racial values. If they are not smart enough , who will spend all their efforts to support it?"

  There is some truth to this.

  If humans want to take in a younger brother, they must take in someone who is smart and naturally easier to control. What is inherently easier to control? That is to say, it does not have its own cultural backbone. For example, among the various countries in the earth's civilization, India is relatively easy to control and can easily become a talent transportation base, while Xia Kingdom is difficult to control.

  In this way, the other party's civilization must have compromised and been compromised politically, and it cannot be that kind of very rigid species.

  Captain Feng nodded: "Yes, as long as the other party is really as we expected, there is the possibility of negotiation... In addition, the enemy and we have been testing for so long without really fighting, which means that the other party also cherishes his life and does not want to fight." It must be a matter of cherishing one's life, but there are certain concerns."

  "...I have no objection to negotiating with the other party."

  Another general said: "But now the opponent still has illusions, we still have to be ready for battle. No one can be sure how big the opponent's appetite is!"

  "Equal exchanges are based on sufficient military capabilities. Now our military strength is far weaker than that of the other party, and the other party has a battle star!"

  Another expert also shook his head and was not optimistic about this matter: "Yes, there is no substantial large-scale war yet. If peace talks suddenly occur, our posture will be very low..."

  "Our previous attempts have failed again, so it's hard to talk about it."

  "What price are we willing to pay?"

  In short, keeping this battle star is the bottom line for mankind, and we cannot retreat.

  As for the price, the new human civilization only has 400 amoeba points on hand. If it doesn't have any more, it doesn't want to give out other technologies.

  Zhang Yuan didn't even want to give away the 400 amoeba points directly...

  40 is about the same!

  Suddenly, a voice sounded in the venue.

  "Everyone...peace negotiations without fighting are bound to be difficult and may even be repeated. Therefore, I suggest that instead of waiting for the other party to attack, it is better to attack first! The attacking party has a better advantage. "

  "Even...project the last planet nemesis! But don't kill too many of the opponent's population."

  "Then, get back to the negotiating table!"

  As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their heads and looked at a young senator who was expressing his opinion.

  Zhang Yuan was shocked, and then immediately began to calculate the gains and losses...

  This plan was so bold that it could easily trigger an all-out war between the two sides regardless of cost. Even some of the more radical military figures were unsure about paying attention to it for a while.
