Chapter 254 - 254 Using History as a Reference



Kang De followed the route of the Google map and looked out the window at the dark and dreary ground.

“The path here can’t even compare to the Empire and Goethe…”

The Autobot was complaining.

To the Transformers, the terrible road conditions were equivalent to people being continuously bumped when walking. “Why don’t the rulers here think of a way to repair and maintain it?”

Kang De could think of the reason, “They definitely don’t have money. Although they can find investments if they don’t have money, the flames of war in northern Myanmar are endless. The buildings, bridges, and roads that he worked hard to build for a few years might be smashed to pieces by the shells in a few seconds. Under such circumstances, who is willing to invest here?”

The Autobot was stunned for a moment, then whispered, “Why is Earth also at war?”

Kang De said indifferently, “Isn’t this very normal?”

His iron son still maintained his curiosity. He still had many things to learn, “Why is war normal? I’ve seen the place where Father lives in the white fog world. The resources are far more abundant than in the other world. Knowledge, culture, and technology are far superior. The people are well-fed. Why is there a reason to fight?”

Kang De was stunned for a moment, then sneered.

“Because Westerners are very lousy. This world is still paying for their wealth hundreds of years ago.”

A mocking smile appeared on his lips, “For example, many conflicts and flames of war on Earth that have lasted until now have come from the gifts of three super-powerful overlords of two generations.”

“You don’t believe me? Take Myanmar as an example. Many local factions that are powerful and resist the central government are armed. Back then, they were supported by the British to cause this area to fall into internal strife and make it convenient to rule. They’ve played too many tricks to create conflict and opposition in the colony.”

“After the end of World War II, the United States and the Soviet Union tacitly cooperated to collapse the colonial system and completely ended the overlord status of Britain. Compared to colonial plunder, the two superpowers have a better choice. That is to rely on ideological transmission to integrate the target country into its economic system. This is the fundamental reason why they ‘liberated’ the colonies because they wanted to end the previous overlord and old order and establish their own hegemony…”

“Therefore, after the war, the colonies established their own countries one after another. However, the problem is that the conflict and confrontation created by the colonists still exist. The United States and the Soviet Union did not give a way to resolve the problem and only restricted it forcefully. When they don’t have the time to restrict it, or can’t, or don’t want to, something will happen. For example, the conflict and confrontation in Myanmar that have lasted for decades, the India-Pakistan conflict, and the Rwanda massacre.”

“However, how many wars have we fought, and how many people have died? How can the world’s hegemon care?”

“In terms of higher essence, this world is still no different from the primitive era.”

This was his gain from reading these few days.

This was because the opponent was the Twilight Dynasty, the world hegemon above the various countries, an unprecedentedly powerful enemy.

Fortunately, Earth could use history as a reference. Although the elves were not Anglo-Saxon barbarians, they were similar. They were both world hegemons and maritime powers. They were also extremely aggressive and conquered and established colonies everywhere. They were also hypocritical and shameful. The mistakes made by the British might also be made by the elves.

The most beautiful thing was that

the British hegemony was over.

The cause, process, and outcome of the disaster, as well as the internal reason, the external push, all the details, the cause, and even the hidden strategy, had been studied by countless scholars in the past few decades. There were all kinds of views, secrets, and explanations.

It was simply like a very detailed strategy book.

This was the greatest information advantage.

It was not only the advancement of ideas and scientific advancement, but a mirror called history.

As the humanities of society improved, the academic field developed deeply. The secrets and history that were once difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with were studied and explored by generations of historians and scholars. They were displayed in a library that everyone could come into contact with and became the knowledge, reading, entertainment, and lessons of the later generations.

This was an overwhelming civilization advantage.

It was not only reflected in the advantage of technology and system.

There was also culture, foundation, and humanities.

Even in the era of cold weapons that was not developed in technology, the confrontation between advanced and backward civilizations could only be recorded in history. To the backward civilization, the chance of winning an important battle depended on the flash of inspiration of a peerless general that was difficult to find in a hundred years. It depended on the extreme unity of the time, place, and people.

To the advanced civilization, they only needed a mediocre general, a mediocre army, and a passage in a history book that the general had read when he was young.

This was because the flash of inspiration of the peerless general that was difficult to find in a hundred years had been completed by his ancestors hundreds of years ago and recorded in the history books. As the river of civilization flowed until now, together with hundreds and thousands of success and failure cases, it became a huge despairing advantage for future generations against backward civilization.

Kang De muttered, “I can even do more…”

The Autobot asked in confusion, “What?”

Kang De focused for a moment before looking up, “Model! I can establish a national model! The history, military, culture, society, and class of the Twilight Dynasty… Through detailed information, it can build a huge national model and hand it to the various universities in the world on Earth to do research!”

“How can we defeat or even disintegrate this country in military, industrial, cultural, and financial aspects?!”

D*mn.

—I can’t think of a way to defeat you alone, but can’t the entire Earth think of it?

As soon as this thought appeared, it spread like wildfire.

He vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped some thoughts.

What Earth could provide him might not only be the physical mirror image of the white fog world.

Apart from buying a house, he could also do many things on Earth.

“It’s probably impossible to earn money and expand your influence to order the wise people of the top universities and even think tanks in the world to serve such an illusory topic.”

He muttered, “The intelligence information of the elves can be provided by Goethe’s intelligence department or even more organizations and factions, but on Earth, I can only do it myself.”

For a moment, a thousand thoughts floated in Kang De’s mind.

The Autobot said calmly, “Congratulations, Father.”

Kang De was stunned. “What?”

“After the battle of Valentine, I could sense the change in Father’s emotions. I was temporarily relieved, but my anxiety was still there,” the Autobot said. “Now, you don’t seem to be confused anymore. This is very good.”

Kang De was silent, then slowly smiled.

That was indeed the case.

Mass projection attacks could only be used three times. Nuclear power was too decisive and cruel. He did not want to consider this step easily. Moreover, he felt that even nuclear weapons would not resolve all problems once and for all.

The hegemony and martial strength of the elves still gave him pressure.

Moreover, Valentine’s experience made him understand something.

The victory Goethe needed might not be a nuclear missile falling from the sky to raze the Twilight Dynasty to the ground. Without the elves, there was still the Empire and the powerful countries that had appeared out of nowhere.

With this in mind, Kang De mocked himself, “D*mn, am I Goethe’s nanny?”

“On this question, Father, my opinion is that there might be love and kindness for no reason in this world, but there shouldn’t be continuous one-sided contributions. You’ve already gone past the limit by helping Goethe and even defeating an elf army at this time. It’s time for Goethe to show an appropriate response.”

“It’s time for them to speak up… What we can do from here will depend on what they’ve done for you.”

The Autobot’s voice was steady and deep.

Ever since he was born, he had followed his father into the Goethe battlefield and personally experienced the Great War of Valentine. Apart from experiencing the smoke and flames of war, he had also seen countless deaths, conflicts, choices, and humanity.

These experiences and Kang De’s teachings shaped the temperament and personality of a steel body.

“You’re right.” Kang De smiled. “In any case, that’s not something that can be done immediately.”

At this moment, his iron son suddenly said, “Someone’s coming.”

A few trucks drove out of the fork in front of him. The carriage was covered in a green cloth and drove forward with a muffled bang. He could even see the two rows of people sitting in the carriage.

Kang De said calmly, “Slow down.”

The Hummer slowed. The headlights had long been turned off and it drove towards the side of the road. Kang De looked straight ahead, brewing various ways to deal with an accident, but these trucks did not seem to have discovered them.

He said, “It’s not the army, because there’s no checkpoint, no sign, or parking check.”

The Autobot had another opinion. “But the people in the car indeed look like soldiers. From their sitting posture and uniform clothes, they have a certain amount of discipline and rules.”

Kang De opened the electronic map and searched for the nearest city. There was an airport nearby. He was deep in thought. “He looks like a soldier, but he doesn’t look like a soldier… a mercenary?”

He looked at the disappearing convoy. “Have they received a job? Where to?”

However, this thought only spun for a moment before being extinguished.

This had nothing to do with him. His goal today was only to collect the goods.

The Autobot said, “Father, could it be that the news has been leaked and they’re here to snatch our weapons?”

Kang De replied, “It’s fine. Then I’ll snatch it from them again.”

His iron son chuckled and said, “I like this idea.”

The teachings of a father were also affecting his son’s personality.

However, this small episode made Kang De raise his guard. After all, this was a foreign country with a language barrier. Moreover, it was the military government in a certain sense. After all, it was still very troublesome to be stopped and checked by the Burmese soldiers. Therefore, the Hummer changed direction and darted into the deep mountains and old forest.

In any case, the father and son had trekked all the way from the Empire to Goethe and were used to walking this road. With the self-repair and recovery ability of the Transformers, they did not have to worry that the car would break down.

“This is it.”

Kang De confirmed the location.

According to the previous photo and description, it was in this desolate valley in front of him.

“I’ll check the living beings. You check the electronic equipment.”

He put on the helmet he had taken from the white fog world. The car slowly approached. Kang De tore open the life detection scroll. The headlights of the Hummer emitted waves that humans could not sense.

“I discovered it.”

“I discovered that too.”

“Father, what should we do?”

“What else can we do? Crush the electronic devices, knock them out, and throw them to the cemetery
