40,000 Years of Cultivation

After several hours of calm thinking, Han Tuhu’s expression was very different from what happened just now. Li Yao felt that he was trying to suppress a certain part of his brain, forcing himself to become a precision calculation tool. , A machine without emotional fluctuations.

"I'm sorry, Major Li."

Han Tuhu held the field cap in his hand, and kept rubbing the red star medal on the cap with his thumb. The medal had been polished shiningly by him. "I was so emotional just now that I lost a Federal Army commander's response. Some calmness, senseless impulse and anger will only make my own judgment mistakes and plunge the troops into an abyss that cannot be restored. I need to apologize for my loss of control."

Li Yao didn't know whether Han Tuhu's change was good or bad.

Han Tuhu stared blankly at the medal in his palm. The shining red five stars on the medal turned into two small sparks in his deep eyes. He froze for a long time, then hesitated and said: "Actually, Major Li All that said, many of our brothers have thought about it on Youfu Island, after all..."

The tail like a meteor hammer crossed his shoulders and stretched out to his head, like a thick arm, knocking his ugly head, "Looking at myself turning into this look like a human and a ghost, How can you not have the slightest doubt?"

"In the beginning, we thought this was just a conspiracy of the enemy, the effect of a new virus."

"However, it is not only us who have mutated. We soon came into contact with the blood lion brigade, Suo Chaolong and other silver-blooded monsters who were also imprisoned.

"While we are becoming more and more like the monster race, Suo Chaolong has become more and more like the human race. If Suo Chaolong and I are now brought together in front of a stranger, who can say I am a human and he is a demon?"

"What is going on with all this? Whether I am or Suo Chaolong, I am afraid I will ask myself countless times every night. This feeling is like 10,000 ants have penetrated into my brain. Nibbles fiercely for seconds!"

"I want to figure out the answer, but I am afraid of the real answer. I can only deceive myself and come up with all kinds of impossible reasons. The relationship between Suo Chaolong and I is the same, so I hate him as a monster. Officer, it is better to say that I am jealous of him, jealous of his current appearance, jealous of him, this evil monster race, why can I have a human face!"

"I think he is the same, right? I can read the look he looks at me, the look exactly like me!"

The expression on Han Tuhu's face cannot be described with pen and ink: "You know, Major Li, although you saved us, you also gave us a huge problem."

"Originally, neither I nor So Chaolong thought that I could really escape from that dark and horrible island. We just wanted to have the hopeless answer fully surfaced and make us all go crazy. Died vigorously, fighting to death on the battlefield as a glorious federal army or a pure silver-blooded monster clan!"

"But, when you appeared, you really saved us all and put the answers we have been unwilling to face clearly before us!"

Li Yao listened quietly.

He had a feeling that Han Tuhu didn't need to respond, just like a heavy machine gun, releasing all the dark emotions that had accumulated in his heart for half a year.

Sure enough, after all this, Han Tuhu stared at the ceiling blankly for a long time, breathed a long sigh of relief, and became different from one second ago: "Major Li, if you want to cease fire with the blood demon world or even join forces, from technology Above all, there are several key issues to be solved."

Li Yao was startled: "Colonel Han, are you willing to let go of your prejudices and join forces with the monster race?"

"I do not want to."

Han Tuhu seemed to be crawling out of the swamp that had been trapped for half a year. A shrewd and somewhat cruel Federal officer was waking up. He shook his head and said, "Even if everything you say is true, the human race and the monster race really come out together. Yiyuan, what about?"

"Forty thousand years of time is enough for the original race to evolve into two different branches, not to mention, even within the same race, there may be irreconcilable conflicts."

"Race has never been the only cause of war, and has never even been the most important cause."

"Take the biggest threat we face, the real human empire, isn't that also a human country, with the same language and the same species as us? But when they destroy us, they won't be soft."

"So, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I won't change my hatred of the Yaozu. I think it will be difficult for the entire Federal Army to change this hatred in just a few years."

"only--"

Han Tuhu's eyes are getting sharper and sharper, as if there is a scalpel, tearing the haze that has been hanging on the periphery of his brain to shreds, "I am a soldier, and my duty is to defend my home and the country, and to defend the satellite and the Federation. , Guarding all citizens of the Star Federation."

"I will do whatever it takes to complete my duties."

"If the destruction of the blood demon world can achieve this goal, I will exhaust my life to achieve this goal, killing every demon race, no matter what their ancestors are."

"However, if only working with the Yaozu can save the Federation, I will not hesitate to make the right choice, even if this choice will be despised by countless people, despised by countless people, and even despised and despised by myself. And hate, I will do it without hesitation."

"So, please tell me first, what exactly is the warfare capability of the Flying Star Realm?"

"You said that they had attacked a planet called the'Spider's Nest Star'. In other words, they had a certain ability of starship to strike against the planet? If we have the great assistance of the flying star realm, can we attack on both sides, one Within two years, quickly conquer the blood demon world?"

"Trust me."

Han Tuhu added, "This question will be asked by any general or politician of the Star Federation."

Li Yao thought deeply for a long time: "According to my observations, it is difficult."

"The situation in the Flying Star Realm is completely different from the Tianyuan Realm. The human races there are basically in a state of'starship civilization'. The so-called army exists in the form of a'armor division', and there is no large-scale, unified command. The regular army, and the'Spider's Nest Stars' they are going to deal with are just a mob of star thieves."

"It is precisely because there is no regular army that they have to use the dangerous weapon of the'Tai Xu Fighting Soldier'."

"What's more, the Flying Star Realm has just experienced a war that lasted for several years. The losses were very heavy and it is still recovering."

"It's one thing to let the Feixing Realm send a fleet to help the people of the Tianyuan Realm defend their homeland."

"But it's another matter for them to send hundreds of starships across thousands of mountains and rivers to attack a monster world with a sinister environment."

"After all, the Blood Demon Realm is not a small resource planet like the Spider's Nest Star, and it is not a rabble of Star Thieves that occupies here, but a well-functioning, efficient, and powerful government with a regular army!"

"A powerful Star Sea Fleet can indeed suppress a planet, but'suppression' and'conquest' are completely different things. Colonel Han must know this truth better than me."

"More importantly, the ultra-long-distance star jump technology is still immature. Every starship jumping from the flying star realm will consume a lot of resources."

"To jump the huge fleet of the Flying Star Realm to the Tianyuan Realm, at least within a few years, the cost is extremely high, even if the Flying Stars cut off their belts, it may not be possible."

"On the other hand, the demons in the blood demon world are under the brainwashing of the'four pillars system', believing in the existence of the Pantheon Palace, believing in the theory of'destruction, rebirth, and immortality'. They have a strong will to resist and have a strong fighting power. If it is a local Fighting has more advantages."

"Even if the huge fleet of the Flying Star Realm really jumped into the synchronized orbit of the Blood Demon Star, and even blasted the surface of the Blood Demon Star into a piece of scorched earth, what?"

"Don’t forget, the environment of the Blood Demon Star is already extremely bad. The demon races here have long been used to poor mountains and evil waters. At that time, they will hide and engage in guerrilla warfare, and they will be able to bring the troops of the Celestial Realm and the Flying Star Realm into force. , Firmly nailed to the blood demon star, consuming a lot of resources in vain, sacrificing a lot of soldiers and cultivators."

"Whether the crystal armor, the spar battleship or the cultivator in a state of high-intensity combat, they are simply gold swallowing beasts, and the resources consumed every day are astronomical!"

"And these resources, these soldiers and cultivators, are all necessary for us to fight against the real human empire!"

"I think the Federal Army must have also drawn up a related comprehensive offensive plan, and calculated how many resources and human lives will be consumed to completely conquer the blood demon world, right?"

Han Tuhu smiled bitterly: "The General Staff of the Federal Army has indeed drawn up many war plans for a full-scale attack on the blood demon world. Even according to the most optimistic estimate, after the Tianyuanjie has continued its local defense for five to ten years, it has drained all its resources. , Can form a total of fifty full crystal armor battle groups, and then use these fifty battle groups as the main force to switch to a strategic offensive and invade the blood demon world. Within five years, it can eliminate the main force of the all-demon alliance in the blood demon world. , In the next twenty years, completely conquer the blood demon world!"

"At that time, the estimated total loss of troops in 20 years given by the General Staff was..."

"One hundred and thirty million federal forces!"

"It's equivalent to twenty years, to smash the entire federal army in and change the blood!"

"According to the optimistic estimate of the General Staff, this all-out war will set the national economy of the Star Federation back for 50 years. It is expected that in the eighteenth year of the latter period of the war, the gross national product will drop to its lowest value, which is only the current value. 65%, and after we completely occupy the blood demon world, this downward curve will slowly rise after ten years of lingering at the bottom. It is expected that it will be 50 years later before we can obtain positive benefits from this war."

"That's why I want to confirm whether this time can be drastically shortened with the help of a powerful fleet of allies."

Li Yao said: "At least it is impossible to shorten it to the extent of conquering the blood demon world in one year, eliminating all rebellions and guerrillas in two years, and collecting a large amount of resources from the blood demon world in three years to make up for the losses of the war."
