Chapter 313 The Millennium War
Chapter 313: The Millennium War
Among scholars who study the universe of human civilization, many put scientific and technological progress first.
It is undeniable that technological progress is the foundation for human civilization to survive and grow under the cruel laws of universe competition. However, it must also be admitted that scientific and technological progress alone is not enough to safely survive the jungle-like cosmic period, and it is even more impossible to grow and grow.
In the universe, countless civilizations have emerged, and most of them have not been able to evolve to a higher level. Among the extinct civilizations, there are many people whose technology is advanced than human civilization, and there are also those whose evolution speed is faster than human civilization. However, human civilization can become one of the few civilizations that break through the cosmic stage. In addition to technological progress, the real foundation also has an extremely important factor.
This is politics!
Of course, this is not politics in the ignorant period. In the universe, the main meaning of politics is how to systematically organize and realize the full potential of civilization.
To put it simply, politics is the inner driving force of civilization.
In a sense, human civilization can survive, grow and grow, and eventually break through the cosmic stage, and politics plays much greater role than technology.
In fact, many civilizations perished in the cosmic stage, and the main reason is that politics cannot match.
Similar problems have been exposed in the late stage of the universe of human civilization. For example, several major disasters that almost destroyed human civilization were caused by insufficient internal organizational strength and their own division. Fortunately, human civilization solved all the problems encountered in the evolution process.
Of course, the connotation of politics in the universe is to unite everyone and condense a civilization composed of countless intelligent individuals into a complete and powerful whole.
At this point, human civilization can be said to have been brought to its extreme.
Of course, for this kind of integration, we must grasp the degree and strength, and we must seize the opportunity, because the painful lessons of the demise of countless civilizations have proved a problem. A highly integrated civilization has a serious lack of creativity and will sooner or later perish due to slow technological progress. When severely divided civilizations encounter disasters, especially when other civilizations invade, it will seriously lack self-restoration ability, and the ending will also be destructive.
All civilizations that have succeeded in the cosmic stage have one political commonality: duality.
To put it simply, in the period of peaceful development, civilization highly worships the creativity of individual wisdom, and individual creation is the main driving force for the progress of civilization. In the period of war, civilization is highly integrated under a common ideal, and individual sacrifice becomes insignificant.
Of course, technological progress itself has laid the foundation for this binary politics.
However, for human civilization, the formation of a stable binary political system was formed after the first cosmic war, which was called the "Balance M War", which almost completely destroyed human civilization, and since then it became the fundamental political system of human civilization.
For human civilization, this war came more suddenly.
It was only thirty years from the realization that war was about to come to war.
For civilizations in the cosmic stage, thirty years are almost a moment. You should know that after human civilization entered the cosmic stage, some more developed civilizations have existed for hundreds of millions of years, or even billions of years, and thirty years are just an extremely short moment.
At that time, the first one to be destroyed were the stars of the "Pisces A" colony.
The attackers used almost the same method as human scientists expected, or the methods human civilization prepared to destroy stars. A neutron star-rated space shuttle hit the stars in the "Pisces A" colony and converted them into space energy inside the star, causing the stars to expand at the speed of light, and in just a few days, it swallowed up all the stars in the galaxy, including thousands of residents in the colony.
This is definitely a devastating blow to any civilization that has not yet flown out of this galaxy.
It is this devastating blow that has bought time for mankind.
For mankind, what is most needed in this war is time.
When attacking the colonial galaxy of "Pisces A", alien civilization must have used intelligent microscopic particles or other means to monitor the "Pisces A" galaxy. Because there was no escape behavior, alien civilization is likely to believe that it has destroyed human civilization in one fell swoop. In other words, in the eyes of alien civilizations, the "Pisces A" galaxy is the birthplace of human civilization, and human civilization has become collectively extinct with the galaxy.
The result is that alien civilizations have lost extremely precious time.
Fifty years later, the revenge of human civilization began.
In the next twenty years, human civilization indiscriminately destroyed more than 30 galaxies that have been discovered to exist in Earth-like planets.
Obviously, this is a more efficient means of war.
The second attack of alien civilizations came about 180 years after the destruction of the Pisces A galaxy. The "Tianma B" galaxy was destroyed, and about 6,000 colonized people died.
But the war is not over.
Without knowing the origin of alien civilizations, humans can only destroy all galaxies that exist within 150 to 200 light years of the solar system without any means, and each means directly destroy the stars and do not detect them before attacking.
Obviously, alien civilizations have adopted completely different tactics.
At the beginning, the war methods of alien civilizations were relatively "civilized", using the fixed-point clearance method, that is, after exploring signs of human civilization activity in the star system, it will attack, rather than attacking all galaxies that can survive and reproduce.
There is no doubt that alien civilizations made a serious mistake and a fatal mistake.
In a sense, this is a mistake caused by self-confidence.
Through later archaeological surveys, the alien civilization that was fighting against humans at that time was a "Star Enemy", and its evolution level did exceed that of humans. It had entered the cosmic era for about a thousand years, and its activity radius in the universe reached 500 light years. However, humans only entered the cosmic era for less than 500 years, and its activity radius was only 150 light years. Therefore, if the "Star Enemy" civilization adopted tactics similar to human civilization from the beginning, then human civilization would have no chance to win at all and would be killed soon.
Unfortunately, the "Star Enemy" civilization is too confident.
The result is that after discovering that human civilization adopts the "match tactic", it is no longer time to reverse the situation of this cosmic war.
You should know that human civilization treats destroying galaxies within a radius of one thousand light years as a magic weapon to win at the beginning.
In other words, it only takes about 850 years for human civilization to achieve this goal and completely destroy the alien civilizations that exist in this area.
How far is the "Star Enemy" civilization from the solar system?
Less than six hundred light years.
At that time, the Aquarius M galaxy discovered by Princess Anne Revenge was within the realm of the "Star Enemy" civilization and had been completely developed by the "Star Enemy" civilization.
Basically, it is certain that the development model of the "Star Enemy" civilization is not much the same as that of human civilization.
Human civilization adopts the development method of colonial expansion, while the "Star Enemy" civilization is likely to adopt the development method of resource plunder, that is, it rarely colonizes alien galaxies, but directly plunders the resources of alien galaxies to ensure that the development of the originating galaxies is not restricted by resource.
Fundamentally speaking, this resource-predatory development model is related to politics.
To put it bluntly, the "Star Enemy" civilization did not form a binary politics, so it must have encountered a lot of trouble when dealing with the relationship between the originating galaxy and the colony. The result is that colonies will no longer be established, and political contradictions will be avoided by plundering alien galaxy resources.
Obviously, this is the practice of cutting feet to fit your shoes.
By the 850th year of the war, human civilization had lost fourteen colonies, and the only remaining solar system had not been destroyed, and the "Star Enemy" civilization became extinct.
To be precise, it is basically extinct.
Subsequent surveys found that the origin of the "Star Enemy" civilization was an extremely large double star system, with both stars being yellow dwarfs comparable to the sun. More importantly, the distance between the two stars is exactly twice the maximum radius of the life belt, so all the planets in the galaxy may be in the life belt for a certain period of time. More importantly, this double star system has about 120 earth-like planets, of which forty earth-like planets orbiting two stars can provide a suitable natural environment for carbon-based life bodies in the life belt. Eight of them are basically "Mercury" composed of water, and the other 32 have land.
It can be said that this is an extremely unique natural environment and is definitely a gift from the God of the universe.
It is also true that the "Star Enemy" civilization can develop and grow in the originating galaxy without relying heavily on the living space of the alien galaxy.
It is roughly estimated that when it was destroyed, the number of intelligent individuals of the "Star Enemy" civilization was comparable to that of human civilization, and even a little more.
You should know that there are only fourteen colonies of human civilization, and only more than twenty planets can be inhabited by humans.
Unfortunately, flowers and plants that grow in greenhouses are often not as tough as those weeds that grow on barren soil when they are hit by storms.
The result is that the "Star Enemy" civilization may not have understood the moment it was destroyed.
Of course, this war lasted for nearly two thousand years, and the last group of escaped "star enemy" civilization was killed by human civilization.
In this war, more than 10 million star systems were completely destroyed!
At that time, human civilization even used the ultimate destruction method, that is, let two neutron star-level space shuttles collide and aggregate inside the stars, and swallow the entire star with artificial black holes.
For human civilization, the war that lasted for two thousand years is definitely a brand new record.
However, in cosmic civilizations, a war of two thousand years is nothing. You should know that wars between some advanced cosmic civilizations can even last for hundreds of millions of years!
