Chapter 227 Interstellar Diplomatic Negotiations
Just after various discussions, whether the other party wants to paralyze humans or really wants to surrender - especially after careful discussion by various military experts, everyone came to the final conclusion...
If the other party wants peaceful negotiations, then peaceful negotiations!
"Yes, even if the other party wants to find an excuse to fight for time, don't humans need to fight for time?"
"At present, we do not have the ability to attack the opponent strongly, and we can only be passively beaten. Therefore, it seems good to just go down with the sarcasm like this... Anyway, it is absolutely impossible for the various weapons currently planned to stop production."
Soon, the entire team drafted a "Non-aggression Treaty", including "Mutual Respect, Non-aggression, Non-interference in Internal Affairs, Equality and Mutual Benefit, Peaceful Coexistence", and sent the past through electromagnetic waves.
Everyone knows clearly that without third-party witnesses, this agreement cannot have any effect and can be torn down at any time. The most effective relationship between civilization and civilization is interests, not morality, commitment, personal qualities and other miscellaneous things.
The nervous and anxious wait began. On the third day, the communications department received a reply from the other party again, generally agreeing to people's non-aggression clauses, but made suggestions on some details, such as "Leave this satellite and move to a more distant planet" and so on.
What kind of interstellar jokes are made, of course it is impossible for humans to agree to these requirements!
Change a planet and a base, and after a while, the entire industrial development time will be extended by several years! Maybe in the past few years, the other party will be able to create a lot of interstellar weapons!
What people lack the most is time. How can we agree to this clause?
Zhang Yuan was really not interested in arguing about this clause that was without any nutrition and could be torn at any time. He turned back to major laboratories all day long to urge the progress of space weapons.
What makes people feel safe is that after overtime emergency production, the first small electromagnetic gun was finally produced!
Although it has the word "small", the electromagnetic gun itself has at least 6 tons of mass, and the long spiral accelerator is like a snail shell.
After testing, it can accelerate the soybean-sized bullet to a speed of 50 kilometers per second in 3 seconds!
This speed is 000 times that of traditional gunpowder bullets, and it can intercept super missiles in space for a certain probability. Of course, because the material technology is not up to standard, it takes a long time to cool a bullet, but this electromagnetic gun still brings a little sense of security.
On the contrary, Captain Zhao and others were excited to rack their brains for various terms, and the negotiations were very exciting.
In their words, even if these terms have no binding benefits, they can test the other party's thinking patterns, ideology, logical methods, etc. during the negotiation process...
After all, the other party is an alien civilization, not a hostile country on earth. If you really fight a war, it will be a life-and-death battle. No matter how cautious you are, it will not be an exaggeration.
On the tenth day, the entire "Non-aggression Friendship Treaty" actually reached an agreement, including that the other party allowed humans to temporarily live above this satellite; as the cost of exchange, humans needed to evacuate spy satellites above the atmosphere; the two parties needed to maintain communication, and personnel exchanges needed to inform each other, etc.
"It's the same as it really..."
Zhang Yuan looked at these terms, snorted coldly, and sneered at it.
Humans' retraction of their own satellites can be said to be a necessary concession. No matter how good a civilization has a good temper, it is impossible for other civilizations to fly around above the atmosphere of their planet.
At the same time, after reaching an agreement, the other party sent another invitation letter, inviting senior humans to go to their planet to discuss deeper cooperation, such as some transactions in technology and culture, etc.
"Dear friends of human civilization, our civilization has been exposed to two powerful interstellar civilizations in the long years of the past 200,000 years."
"We deeply know that the benefits of communication between civilizations are far greater than confrontation between each other..."
"According to our observations, the scientific and technical level of your civilization is not too huge with us. So, why not sit down calmly and talk about how to cooperate more deeply... More exchanges will promote friendship between the two sides, rather than the current state of trembling."
"It is difficult to develop to the true peak by relying solely on its own development. Every civilization has its own thinking limitations and cannot fully understand the profound and complex nature."
The most worrying thing is this invitation letter. Captain Zhao and others are quite puzzled. After such a long period of vain and condemnation, the other party seems to have a meaning of cooperation...
"Captain, I think it is very necessary to send a diplomatic team to conduct an interstellar investigation..." A member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said excitedly: "The two countries will fight each other and do not kill them. After these days of negotiations, I think the other party's logical thinking is not much different from ours, and we should also understand this principle."
Zhang Yuan also frowned and said, "That's right. As long as our rear is strong enough, the diplomats in the front are the safest. Killing diplomats can be said to be the stupidest behavior. It has no other benefits except to trigger endless hatred..."
"If the other party really wants peace, there is no need for us to fight to death."
After two hours of discussion, everyone got a consensus.
There is no reason to have a high-level face-to-face negotiation from the beginning? First, maintain remote communication and enhance mutual understanding. There are many things that can be solved through remote dialogue, and then consider face-to-face negotiation.
Then... humans don't have to go down first, they can let the other party come up first!
Zhang Yuan's mood became a little easier, and it would be good to get some time for the time being. Anyway, before any party tear off the agreement or the peace talks are really successful, this kind of falsehood and conspiracy must continue.
As soon as he returned to his office, he hurriedly called a satellite phone, "Old Ye, how is the repairing site of your shuttle machine? You may really use it in the future. These days have really opened my eyes and I really may not be able to fight."
"Ah? It's almost done... I really have to send diplomats?" Ye Kaifu, as the main engineer of the surface heavy industry base, has to be busy with this and that these days, and is almost exhausted and paralyzed.
But there is no way, who will be responsible if he doesn't come and take responsibility?
Zhang Yuandao: "The results of the negotiation have come out, and it is still necessary to maintain peace on the surface. We will recycle the artificial satellites above the atmosphere and reduce surveillance on them."
"Of course, just pretending, there will be no shortage of necessary remote monitoring."
"I understand." Ye Kaifu nodded solemnly, "But it is a bit difficult to completely recycle satellites. With our recycling capabilities, some of them may be damaged..."
"It's okay." Zhang Yuan waved his hand, "It's better to damage a part than not to take it back, right? As long as you are ready, we will take back the satellite first."
