Chapter 2030 The Madman is Coming (Please give me a monthly ticket!!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!!!)

Just when Kai and Aphrodite were still struggling with these trivial matters, Gir finally arrived on Earth.

Honestly…it’s hard.

Gel wandered in the universe for a long time before he found the exact news about the Earth... After all, this place is too secretive. Ordinary people or forces have no idea of ​​the existence of the Earth, and the forces that know of the existence of the Earth are very secretive about it.

It took Gel a lot of effort to obtain the star map of the Earth from the Kree Empire.

Of course, Ger's methods were not gentle. On the contrary, the Kree Empire was stunned. They had no idea who was attacking them. This caused the situation in the universe that had just calmed down to stir up waves again.

Previously, the Kree Empire's Judge Ronan and Thanos launched an attack on Xandar, the core planet of the Xandar Empire, which led to a very tense situation between the two empires. Strictly speaking, the Xandar Empire is not as powerful as the Kree Empire.

Xandar's territory in the universe is very small compared to that of the Kree.

But Xandar has the Nova Corps. The Nova Corps is the foundation for Xandar's rise. This corps is very special. It is selected from the people of Xandar. The Nova Corps is composed of many Novas, who fight mainly through the "Nova Energy" generated by the super life computer Worldmind.

It can be said to be an artificial superman.

Each Nova possesses superhuman strength, speed, and endurance, and can absorb energy, emit gravity pulses, and radio waves at will through any part of the body - even through the whole body. They wear the standard Xandar Star Corps uniform. This uniform has a built-in life support system that allows him to survive in all environments, including outer space, and has a high degree of resistance. The helmet of the suit has functions such as radio transmission, monitoring transmission, telescopic viewpoint, night vision sensing, thermal imaging sensing, and energy tracking. The Nova's helmet can remain hardened while being worn, and once taken off, it can become a soft material like cloth, which is convenient to carry while wearing civilian clothing. The suit has super ductility and can eject electromagnetic currents to allow Richard to enter hyperspace and fly at superluminal speeds.

The individual abilities of these guys are very strong, the only drawback is that their numbers are limited.

Initially, the Nova Corps was composed of space militia and exploration agencies from Xandar. Later, the Corps developed into a 500-man force ranging from sergeants to centurions, including the leader of the centurions, the Nova Centurion Director.

Because of this, the territory of Xandar was restricted... After all, there were so few people and they could only patrol such a small area.

Fortunately, the Xandar people are more peace-loving and trade-oriented, and their desire for territory is not as strong as that of the Kree.

After all, the Cree are militarists. The essence of militarism is expansion. Militarism, also known as militarism, refers to the ideology and political system that regards militarism and aggression and expansion as the foundation of a country, puts the country completely under military control, and makes all aspects of politics, economy, culture and education serve the expansion of the army and foreign wars. Militarism is full of cruelty and reactionary nature, and has brought great disasters to mankind. Its basic theory includes the denial of peace, insisting that war is inevitable, and even believing that war itself is beautiful and desirable. Militarism is manifested in the militarization of all aspects of a country's political, economic and social life, as well as the policy of aggression and expansion. In militarist countries, war becomes the main purpose of the country. The survival and development of a country mainly depends on external plunder and expansion. In modern times, it is mainly manifested in Germany and Japan during World War II.

The Cree are the epitome of militarism.

All their resources need to rely on plunder.

Then they formed path dependence, began to expand and devour continuously, and then continued to devour.

The Cree are a bit like Earth's ancient Assyrian Empire.

Militarism is full of cruelty and reactionary nature, and has brought great disasters to mankind. When mentioning militarism in China, people will first think of Japan. In fact, there are many militaristic countries in history. Assyrian Empire, Sparta, Ottoman Turkey, Russian Empire, Prussia, Nazi Empire, Japanese Fascist Empire, etc.

Among them, Prussia was the most famous. Mirabeau said: "In Prussia, the army owns a country, not the country owns an army."

There is nothing new under the sun, and history always repeats itself in disguise. All the militaristic countries in history have done little new compared to their ancestor, the Assyrian Empire.

The originator of militarism - the Assyrian Empire.

After the ancestors of Homo sapiens came out of the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, they first chose to settle in the Fertile Crescent in the Middle East and established the first civilization in human history with written records - the 7-year-old Sumerian civilization. Human civilization originated in the Middle East, which is determined by the Middle East's geographical location. The Middle East connects the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa. It is a place of "one bay, two oceans, three continents and five seas", connecting the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean. It has been a transportation hub between the East and the West since ancient times. Sun Tzu's Art of War states that "if you want to fight in a land of exchange, you must not defend it." The Crescent is the core of the Middle East. If you want to unify the Middle East, you must first occupy the Fertile Crescent.

For thousands of years, different nations have gathered, communicated, and fought over the Crescent.

The rise and fall of empires are very frequent. The birth of the first militaristic empire in human history has historical rationality. For more than two thousand years, Assyria was sometimes strong, sometimes declining or becoming a vassal of other countries, but Assyria, as an independent country and relatively independent region, has always existed. From the end of the 10th century BC, Assyria suddenly rose, and after two centuries of continuous conquests, it finally established an empire spanning West Asia and North Africa, and brought the southern Mesopotamian region and the two major civilizations of Egypt under its rule.

The Assyrian Empire's wars of conquest were known for their brutality. They implemented the "Three Alls Policy" wherever they went, burning and destroying cities, plundering wealth, and slaughtering residents or abducting them as slaves. The inscription on the stele of Assyrian King Ashurasippar II, a famous tyrant in history, talked about his looting of Mesopotamia and Syria: "I filled the valleys with the corpses of my enemies to the top of the mountain; I cut off their heads and decorated the city walls with them. I burned their houses, I peeled off their skins and wrapped them around the city gates and the walls; I built people into the walls alive, I nailed people to the walls with stakes and beheaded them."

The Crees are the Assyrian Empire in the universe.

They expanded at an abnormal rate, devouring everything around them.

But they couldn't stop, because once they stopped, the internal conflicts among the Kree would destroy them!

Originally, after Ronan attacked Xandar, the Nova Corps launched a revenge and completely defeated the star field ruled by Ronan. (The Kree Empire's ruling system is a combination of militarism and warlord politics. Although everything in the empire is controlled by their super biological computer "Supreme Intelligence", the Kree's territory is too large, which means they have to rely on a more cost-effective way of ruling. So they have a very unique system - the Accusation Corps system, an institution that controls the military power of the empire and maintains the law. Each member of the Accusation Corps will govern the territory under his jurisdiction. He has supreme authority in his territory. They have their own fleets and armies, as well as a series of bureaucratic institutions, and can even be inherited. The reason why Ronan hates the Xandar so much is because his father died in the war with Xandar... There is no way. The universe is too big, and the planets ruled by the Kree are too far away from each other. If the local and central governments rely solely on fleets to communicate, it is too inefficient, so this strange system was born)

The Kree Empire has been waging wars all the time... not just against Xandar, they have been waging wars against other enemies all year round. There are so many enemies, so for the sake of the stability of other fronts, they can only compromise... This is not surprising, they are not going to have an easy life, they will die if they lose once or twice.

The Cree people still have a very deep heritage.

Therefore, it is no big deal to compromise. Just wait for a while and wait until the other battles have calmed down a bit before dealing with the Xandar Empire.

But unexpectedly, at this moment, Gel suddenly rushed out.

Indiscriminately destroyed two outpost planets of the Kree Empire and directly destroyed a fleet.

This kind of single-player combat capability made the Kree immediately think of their old rival - Captain Marvel.

But the method is not similar. Although Captain Marvel will go to war with the Kree, most of the time, he will not kill them all. This guy is stupid and has to show kindness to his enemies. But this time, not a single one survived.

So the Kree suspected that it was the Xandar Empire that was behind this.

After all, it is not far from the Xandar Empire.

Of course, if the Kree really wanted to investigate, they should be able to find out that this has nothing to do with the Xandar Empire.

But do the Cree need to care about this?

You must know that another characteristic of militarism is that the upper class can easily be coerced by the lower class.

Because the Cree people live in a society with extremely rigid social classes, they place the greatest emphasis on the concept of hierarchy, and even to the point of being perverted by seniority.

This thing is a bit like the daily life of the lower class overthrowing the superior class.

An ancient Chinese saying can explain this: "When a general is away from the army, he may not obey orders." This means that the subordinates are dissatisfied with the superiors and even ignore the orders issued by their superiors. In theory, it is the duty of soldiers to obey military orders, but the subordinates' rebellion against their superiors comes from the Japanese Bushido spirit. While the samurai emphasize loyalty to their superiors, they also hope that their superiors can respect the interests of their subordinates. If the subordinates think that their superiors have violated this agreement, they can oppose their superiors.

This question involves something deeper in Japan, so I can only briefly talk about it here. As we all know, Japan is a country with scarce natural resources and a small area. Many contradictions are unavoidable and can only be faced directly. The bottom of society is the most severely exploited in Japan, and there is basically no possibility of further exploitation. This social environment has caused Japan to be probably the earliest country in the world to concentrate power and solidify classes. Limited resources must be distributed in a centralized manner. Once the class that controls the power of distribution is slightly biased, the bottom that is squeezed to the bottom line can only rebel. There was no clear scientific guidance in ancient times, but in Japanese society, a samurai class that protects the right to distribute resources and a chaebol class that can use their brains to distribute resources more reasonably and profit from it are naturally formed. However, the top level wants these two classes to help them distribute resources, but they are unable to support these two classes and recover all the power of distribution. What should they do? - Give policies!

Under the premise of ensuring the benefits of the top level, give them the right to exploit! As long as they can suppress the bottom level, then how to profit from receiving and handing over is their power. In fact, there are many cases in Japanese history where the bottom level was forced to rebel, but Japan is small in territory and has little room for maneuver. The strong side has never had any military shortages or problems of lack of concentration, so it is very convenient to suppress them. They have always been fighting as soon as they show up. The weak side has never had room for development. Like the Central Empire, the situation below has become a prairie fire, and the situation that the top level has not received intelligence is simply impossible. However, the strong side of Japan also has an advantage, that is, it knows not to kill the chicken to get the eggs, and to keep the sheep when you want to fleece the wool. Each of these bottom people has clear benefits, and if they are killed, they will be gone. Therefore, after suppressing the situation by force, they will ask the middleman to come out for negotiation, give how much rice and grain, and then everyone will stop making trouble and go home to live a good life. Therefore, Japanese history does not mention any peasant uprisings, and such incidents are all so-called "disturbances."

During the most tense period of World War II, the famous "rice riots" occurred in major cities in Japan. The "lower class overthrows the upper class" means that the middle class in Japan has over-exploited the lower class, and the lower class begins to "riot". Or the upper class tries to get their hands on the power that the middle class has exploited, and the middle class begins to fight back. The lower class overthrows the upper class, which is a natural means for Japanese society to maintain class balance and class solidification.

In modern times, with the introduction of modern Western scientific knowledge, this kind of "downward rebellion" soon added scientific guidance, becoming somewhat specious. For example, the 226 Incident, in which Ishihara Kanji created the Kwantung Army myth, is considered by many to be a typical case of "downward rebellion" in the Japanese army. Let's think so. But if you are interested in this and are willing to delve deeper, you will find that this is not "downward rebellion", but in the power struggle among the Japanese high-level officials, one party took advantage of the middle and lower levels. In the process, after the Meiji Restoration, social changes, some people who were able to jump from the lower level to the middle level were the so-called young and strong faction in the Japanese army. They saw that they could go further and jump into the upper level. This kind of "downward rebellion" became more and more serious and out of control. To be honest, I feel that if Japan had not perished at the hands of the Allies and there had been no major war in Europe, Japan would have been allowed to dominate East Asia and be smooth sailing. I am afraid that it would have perished in this kind of loss of control. This can be seen from the fact that Ishihara Kanji himself was pushed out of the power center by his radical young and strong faction.

The Kree are similar. The upper-class Kree may consider gains and losses, or the overall situation. But the lower-class Kree warriors who hope to improve their social status by making meritorious contributions do not have such a big picture. They only know that if they don't go to war, they can't be promoted. So even if the central government of the empire hopes to stabilize other fronts and then turn around to deal with the Xandar Empire, the people below don't think so.

This trend of thought, when combined with remarks such as patriotism and national dignity, will immediately form a wave of public opinion.

A militaristic society like the Cree is particularly susceptible to influence.

For the upper class, if they forcibly suppress this kind of public opinion, it will be harmful to themselves.

So, the war began.

Just like that, the Kree and Xandar, who had nothing to do with Ger, started fighting again.

But Gul didn't care at all. After getting the data of the Earth from the central computer on the Kree fleet, he rushed directly to the Earth!

The madman is coming!
