How Am I Still Alive?

"Perhaps, you will be dissatisfied with our conservative strategic decision-making at that time. To be frank, our decision to stick to our homeland at that time did allow the entire Pacific Campaign to fail. The fall of many Pacific island countries was related to it. Many people feel that if we had fought hard at that time, perhaps the situation would be much better than it is now. I do not deny that there is indeed such a possibility."

The leader of the East Country, who is already over 70 years old, the Song family boss who promoted the Nirvana Plan at that time, appeared on the TV screen again.

This is not a national speech, but an internal lecture of the administrative, judicial and military institutions of the East Country.

Lu Ping'an has personally seen this old man and he is also a little surprised by the degree of aging of the other party. The old man sitting in a wheelchair is wearing a bottle, and his life breath is fragile and may disappear at any time.

Perhaps, at this time, the ability to withstand pressure and energy consumption required for that position is indeed not something that ordinary people can bear.

And this time, it is the second time that Lu Ping'an has seen the old man's internal lecture. This is one of the traditions of the East Country. The East is not used to hyping a certain concept or using the enthusiasm of the whole people to exaggerate emotions, but it does not mean that "propaganda" is not important.

On the contrary, unlike those Western countries that need votes, they need to hype concepts to get votes. As long as the voting is over, the policies, reforms, and slogans are not important. There are too many reasons and excuses to make them irrelevant. Maybe those politicians are indeed excellent orators, but most of their speeches are used in false promises and incitement.

In this regard, the East Country is a completely different path.

". However, the cost of this possibility is borne by us, and there is no end in sight. Our calculators have concluded that if we fought to the death with the opponent in a very unfavorable marine environment at that time, our losses would be extremely heavy, and most of the first batch of soldiers would die in battle. I know you are not afraid of losses, but it takes three years for us to train a soldier, and it normally takes six years for a superhuman to start from scratch, while the other side only needs to open another door and move out of another tribe."

Unifying thoughts is absolutely necessary before large-scale actions, but it is not necessary to incite ordinary people who have nothing to do with it.

Basic national policies and important strategies will be briefly reported on public radio and television, but for more detailed content, those individuals who need to be unified in their thinking are always the grassroots executors layer by layer.

A few years ago, when the old man was promoting the Nirvana Plan, he also issued it layer by layer in the official internal TV conference.

Those who need to unify their thinking and understand the current main strategies of the East Country are the internal executors, field soldiers, and logistics overtime workers, not the insignificant critics.

". The next war is our best opportunity, but this is not a reason for you to sacrifice yourself. The plane war is essentially no different from the national war. It is always the comprehensive national strength and consumption between each other. Compared with the foreign invaders, we are the weak, and the weak must be calm and rational enough, and must see the future."

The total force, top combat power, and number of gods are not comparable to the multiverse-level plane invaders.

". The weak and the strong fight a war of attrition, which is stupid and arrogant."

There were not many explanations before, just various conjectures. This time, it is a unified response.

In the police station, in the military camp, in the government office building, everyone was listening and understanding.

Some people were thoughtful, while others were indignant. Even though they knew that if they were caught in the Pacific War, they would lose all their manpower, but when those losses and tragedies were in front of them, their emotions could not be controlled.

In recent years, many people have participated in the war privately, and many have been killed in the war, and there are also many "deserters" who have gone and returned.

All those who know the situation, when mentioning that place, are similar comments such as "too cruel" and "bloody battle, that is a real bloody battle". Even the top strong men may fall directly on such a battlefield.

In the news broadcast, the decision made by the East Country officials that year was responded to.

".Our biggest disadvantage is that we are too young as a supernatural race, and our supernatural power is not enough. Our biggest advantage is technology, and the battlefield is our native home where our technology can play a role."

Some things were previously guessed, but now they have been verified.

"We are a civilization, not a primitive tribe. We need time to adjust our technology to the new naval warfare. Our greatest resource has never been population, but the world's largest population of higher education, which means the largest number of engineers, professionals, and mechanics."

Obviously, the decision makers see it more clearly than anyone else.

Just like he pushed forward the Nirvana Plan against all odds that day because he saw the scene of the chronic death of countries all over the world, and he forced the implementation of the "isolation front" a few years ago because he saw the tragic sacrifices that the East would suffer once it fell into the battlefield at that time.

The East people have never been afraid of sacrifice, but they hate meaningless sacrifices.

In that ocean, under the circumstances at that time, there were not enough cannon fodder, combat platforms, information support platforms, and long-range attack weapons. When most of the war preparations could not be put into use, a large number of soldiers were thrown in to fill the line. The loss of low-level combat power was very painful, and the high-level combat power was lost one by one, and it was impossible to replenish it in the short term.

"Our blood and energy should flow for our country. Only by preserving those living forces can we launch a counterattack when necessary."

And this is still part of what can be said.

Based on Lu Ping'an's understanding of those top-level extraordinary people, their loyalty basically has a price. If you really let him fill the line, his passive sabotage is considered friendly. The most likely thing is to run away, and there are also extreme environments where he will directly defect.

Precisely, they are the most important. Although it is cruel, most people just want to fight a favorable battle. There is nothing to blame about this in itself, and wise decision makers will find ways to make themselves the favorable party.

Not smashing in at that time is to ensure that most of the high-level forces are still on their side when counterattacking now.

".The long patience is for today. Now we are ready for war. Thirteen Ocean War Zones have formed twenty-one super fleets. A large number of extraordinary people have completed adaptive training. Now the proportion of extraordinary people in our country has even reached 21%. The most important thing is that our civilization is ready to deal with this war."

The calm words are the determination to win. For this moment, the whole country has been sleeping on straw and eating bitter food for three years.

A large amount of resources have been invested in war preparations. This is a real failure or death. This is the weak clenching their fists and seeking the opportunity to counterattack at that moment.

The East Country and even the whole world are weak in the eyes of foreign invaders. Compared with continuous bleeding, the weak are the most likely to win by delivering a fatal blow at the most appropriate time. But theory is always theory. To be able to overwhelm this last moment, Lu Ping'an dare not think about how much pressure the decision makers above will face.

".At this moment, words are meaningless, only fighting is left."

"Fight for our country."

"Fight for humanity."

"Fight for our future."

Completely different from the expected excitement, the speaker today can only speak these plain words with a trembling voice.

"For our home. Whether it is our big home or your small home, fight to the end."

On the same day, the declaration of war was completed, and the first Earth Defense War began.
