Chapter 1939: The whip is beyond reach! (1/2)
Di Feiwen smiled slightly and said: ”It is better to say that the empire is a mess of sand, but that the sea of stars is too vast. With the existing technology of mankind, it is far beyond the limit of a unified government that can effectively rule.
”My king, you should know that the reason why human civilization can be distributed in three thousand worlds is not entirely dependent on our own conquests, but also the'spreading' of Pangu and Nuwa civilizations. In other words, we did not'naturally' expand to Three Thousand Worlds, but with their help, was'dropped' out in a very short time.
”Then, after the collapse of Pangu and Nüwa civilizations and the destruction of all the communications and transportation they left behind,'a pile of scattered sand, isolated and helpless' should be the norm. Any unified government or dynasty is an exception.
”In fact, with the current technological and social development level of human civilization, it is the limit for a central government to effectively rule more than ten or twenty large worlds. Speaker Ding must have a deep understanding of this.”
”Yes.”
Ding Lingdang seemed to think of something terribly headache, and frowned, ”As far as our federation is concerned, even if we have advanced Xinghai jumping technology and ultra-long-distance communication capabilities, regardless of jumping or communication, it consumes a lot of resources. The spar with astronomical numbers was sent to various starports and ultra-long-distance communication base stations, and was wasted among the fluctuations of psychic energy.
”Even so, the Federation is still beyond the reach of the resource planets in remote star regions, and it is extremely difficult to implement effective rule. In many cases, it has to rely on local sects to maintain basic order-such a sect management system is now working well, but in time, when these sects , Who knows what will happen after having tangled relationships and deep-rooted interests in the local area?
”One more thing, the vast expanse of the universe and the power of human beings have caused the ever-changing environment of the habitable planet, and even the subspecies of human beings vary greatly, such as the primitive world like the Shuhai Realm and the heavily polluted Nether Realm. In the wasteland world, the management methods cannot be exactly the same. Taking into account different customs, it is extremely difficult to achieve uniform laws.
”Therefore, the current federation actually has a strong color of regional autonomy.
”Even if more and more worlds join the federation in the future, just like the ancient sacred world, because they are farther from the core area of the federation, the environment and race are more complicated, and it is basically difficult to be directly controlled by the central government. It is still the possibility of regional autonomy. Relatively high.”
When Ding Lingdang took over the ”Patriot Organization” from Lu Zui, he was a staunch regional autonomyist. He believed that the Federation was unlikely to rely on a powerful army to rule the Xinghai, and could only spread the idea of a cultivator to the entire universe.
Her point of view coincides with Di Feiwen.
Di Feiwen nodded and said: ”Speaker Ding is right. The problem you have encountered is the problem encountered by the empire. Although the empire is much stronger than the Federation in terms of overall national strength, Xinghai Jump and ultra-long-distance communication technology are not There is no essential difference.
”If the Confederation can effectively rule the ten great worlds is the limit, then the most powerful interest group of the empire uses the most advanced technology, that is, to effectively rule the twenty great worlds, no matter how much, it will be indigestible.
”Even the strongest and cruel dinosaurs continue to grow throughout their lives, and their size has limits. An overly large empire needs to rely on an expanding bureaucracy and army to rule, but the expansion of the bureaucracy and army will in turn reduce The empire is sucked up and crushed. The Xinghai Empire is like this, so why not the real human empire?”
Li Yao couldn't help but smile and said, ”Then use ideas to inspire, don't the empire's cultivators also have the lofty idea of ‘all for human civilization’?”
Di Feiwen also laughed: ”The so-called'sublime idea' is an extremely rare luxury item in the entire universe. In this regard, everyone is half a catty, and it is'big brother not smiling second brother'!
”It's like in the Star Federation. Although the propaganda calibre refers to the cultivator as the'war sword of human civilization' and wants to fight for'guarding ordinary people', it can truly be self-interested, dedicated to benefiting others, and forgotten to die. , How many cultivators selflessly dedicated everything? My king, even if it is you or Speaker Ding, can you really have no selfish desire at all? If you want to nationalize your Yaoshi Group now, you will be indifferent. Are there no complaints?”
Li Yao and Ding Lingdang looked at each other and smiled and said: ”There is no need to use big words to force us. Of course we are not so lofty. Except for the puppets of the Saint League, who can look at the entire universe without any lust?”
”That's it.”
Di Feiwen said, ”In an ideal state, the battle between the Federation and the Empire is a battle of ideas, a battle between righteous and evil, and a battle between great avenues between 100% of the cultivators and 100% of the cultivators. But in fact, the two sides There is a common enemy, not the Holy League, but humanity.
