History of Human Space Exploitation

Chapter 27 Rebellion
It has not been bathed in the light of stars for hundreds of millions of years, but it is full of heat because of the active lava activity under the earth's crust.The oxygen here comes from the nucleosynthesis of the previous generation of stars at the end of their evolution, rather than the usual photosynthesis on those planets with a Kamin index above 995.Although this dark planet is full of geothermal heat and oxygen, it has not bred organic life in the course of hundreds of millions of years of evolution.

Here, of course, it is also filled with hydrogen-oxygen liquid water and ammonia water, two compounds that are abundant in the universe.From time to time, there is a drizzle or a violent storm that mixes the two substances.When it rains, the light of distant and faint stars will be diffracted into blue and white light.

Here, hundreds of millions of years have been spent in the polar night.And here, it is the most important transportation fortress in several nearby galaxies.

The node ports of seven traffic-grade star tunnels and 29 communication-grade star tunnels were opened or discovered within the range of fifteen parsecs centered on the planet.In the last generation, the planet changed hands several times during the nearly two hundred standard-year struggle between two evenly matched regimes.

Today, however, rain wafts freely through the planet's atmosphere.In the white and blue dyed atmosphere, people waited for the returning fleet from the seven rebel planets.

Ten years ago, the Sorayan regime, which lasted for 230 years, was defeated by the relatively weaker Vizo regime under the multiple effects of its own internal affairs, religious issues, and the division and defection of the ruling class.As a result of that war, humanity in the entire Virgo supercluster was reunited under a single regime after nearly 300 years of division.

However, the Sorayan regime, which lasted for more than 200 years, was not without its merits.The regime inherited some of the political and religious heritage of the previous generation, as well as the human races of several galaxies under its rule, whose civilization has degenerated due to their long-term isolation from those cultural centers.And the complex that combined political power and part of theocratic power continued to grow and develop in the relatively barren and sparse corner of the Canes Venetian galaxy cluster, becoming one of the two absolute powers of human beings in the super galaxy cluster.

Although he did not establish a hereditary monarchy like the Eagle Emperor thousands of years ago, Sorayan organically combined religion with a secular governance system similar to a republic.In its more than 200 years of existence, sometimes the government and religious leaders were held by a single person, and more often the two positions were divided between two people.In their long-term political and religious life, the two sometimes cooperated and sometimes attacked each other, and even developed into bloody incidents several times.However, human historical experience tells us that a certain degree of struggle can optimize the internal governance structure of a regime, and it can also implement effective strict rewards and punishments accompanied by orders and prohibitions, so that the regime can have a higher level of cohesion for a period of time .

Before Sorayan was completely destroyed by the Vizo regime, it may be due to the long-term social stability that the people under the regime increased their exchanges with the outside world.At the same time, a stable life created conditions for the restoration of education.Driven by these two factors, the conflict between the rulers of the last two secular governments and religious leaders became intense and public.This slow process lasted for nearly 200 years, and both sides had politicians and historians with enough wisdom.They have all been giving those in power many useful and forward-looking suggestions through historical experience and the realistic political situation.Both sides are accumulating strength in the long-term cooperation and submission, waiting for the most favorable time to come.

"In the past, Zhou obtained Weizi and revolutionized the merchants, Qin obtained Yu Yu and dominated Xirong, Wu obtained Wuyuan and conquered Chu, Han obtained Chen Ping and punished Xiang Ji, Wei obtained Xu You and defeated Yuan Shao; the ministers of the enemy country , Come for your own use, and it is a good resource for progress." - Sima Guang: "Zi Zhi Tong Jian"

Sima Wenzheng 4000 years ago, from the perspective of the victor, he was also from the perspective of objectively evaluating political gains and losses and lessons. In this way, he evaluated several times in the history of ancient China that led to the imbalance between the strong and the weak, and then caused the outcome of the victory to change. personal defection.For the Sorayan regime, which considered itself to be the protagonist of history at that time, the defection of religious leaders to the Vijo regime in the last period was indeed the last straw that overwhelmed it after long-term negligence and excessive military investment in the border conquest.

In the year 2039 of the Universal Era, when the Vizo army marched lightly and marched for a long distance to the planet Dosvila, the capital of Sorayan, the largest-scale defection in human history became a regrettable footnote at the last moment of the regime's life. . The 17 billion garrison troops and the 73 billion people in the capital, when they saw 15 Vedra starships and warships appearing above them, flocked to various departments of the secular government under the leadership of religious leaders who had already left Germany.

Most of the government officials on Doth Vila chose not to surrender in humiliation, or to call on their supporters to make unnecessary sacrifices.They used poison, sabers, armed weapons, and torches to kill themselves on the spot, maintaining the last dignity accumulated in this country in the past 230 years.

Sorayan's demise was not so much the result of Wei Zhuo's long-term planning and bearing the burden of humiliation, but was more considered by historians to be a collection of multiple accidental factors.Because of this, after capturing Dosvila and unifying human society in name and form, and unifying the Virgo supergalaxy cluster, Vizo was extremely careful in handling the old and young of Sorayan.

The new unified regime did not impose the existing administrative systems such as star regions and star provinces on the original Sorayan core area.Several Sorayan core areas centered on Dosvela were preserved as a whole star area, and the locals elected by the surviving secular governments and religious regional leaders on each planet were appointed as the new supreme leaders.At the same time, around the Canes Venetian galaxy cluster, the new Vizo government has arranged seven military areas directly under its jurisdiction to monitor the new Dosvela star area.

Everyone knows the reason for such careful design and arrangement.Sorayan's demise was not due to the regime's complete distrust of the people, nor was it an irreparable social disaster.Struggles between high-level governments and religious leaders allow enemies to take advantage of states when they are most vulnerable, which is a well-known internal cause.In addition, when the country was subjugated, the unyielding figures of many government officials who died in the capital Doravis still echoed in the memory of the people. It is not easy for the new unified regime to completely digest this area that has existed for more than two hundred years.

As everyone had foreseen, the short-lived war lasted only seven years.In the year 2048 of the Universal Era, many incidents that caused dissatisfaction among those in power during the transition of the unified government of Vizo, coupled with the reform of the political and economic systems that the new government intends to implement after it came to power, finally ignited the long-planned rebellion of Dosvila. Erupted.

The heads of the seven military districts monitoring Dosvila have already had the intention of spying on the new unified government, and the dissatisfaction preached by those opponents is only a means to exaggerate their purpose.They first spread all kinds of unfavorable rumors about this unified government in the entire human society, and at the same time actively operated the joint front with the Dosvila star area.In the year 2049 of the Universal Era, the long-awaited rebellion between the Seven Prisoners and the old and young in the Dosvila sector began.

Of course, the Weizhuo unified government is not the cowardly regime in history that was slaughtered by others. In addition, the incomplete conquest eight years ago did not completely control the original Solayang area. Everyone knows that such unity is fragile.The two generations of Vijos in power certainly had full foresight of such a rebellion.

The three-year arduous counter-insurgency began.Weizhuo almost used the original control area, that is, about 60.00% of the Virgo supergalaxy cluster lived on planets, and nearly 15 billion troops participated in the military operations for the entire three years.Although 15 billion is against [-] million, it is true that the unified government has a crushing advantage over the rebels in terms of numbers.However, due to the impressive armament and combat effectiveness of the seven military regions themselves, and the fact that the people of the original Sorayan had more or less formed the belief of revenge for the old country, the tragic war lasted for three outrageous standard years.

In the early days of the war, relying on its long-term accumulated military power and daily military training, the Seventh Supervisor has been making great strides on the battlefield, and once owned 70.00% of the territory of the galaxy cluster.The turning point of the war occurred around the end of the second year after the rebellion began, and the Seventh Prison Army, which had been fighting hard for many years, was also at the end of its strength.Although in the occupied area, the heads of the Seventh Prison have also learned from historical experience, try to maintain stability with appeasement and a small number of local representatives who can control the situation, so as to ensure that sufficient troops can still be concentrated in the direction pointed by the front of the soldiers, but Wei Zhuo At this time, the effective governance of more than 200 years began to show great energy.

Although Vizo has maintained a standing army of 15 billion for a long time, because it occupies 70.00% of the planets and 80.00% of the population of the entire galaxy cluster, the corresponding result is that the price that the people need to pay for this is much lower than the number of troops. seven prisons for one-fifth of them.In addition, the Seven Prisoners cannot trust each other fundamentally, so they cannot achieve scientific coordination in terms of social resources and war resources. They are each developing their own limited-scale basic industries and research. The result is of course that no one can control Develop more sophisticated technology within the scope of resources, and cannot enjoy the cost reduction brought about by scale.More importantly, due to the above factors, the economy between Qijian and Weizhuo has maintained an unhealthy deficit for a long time, and the significant gap in soft power such as economy and culture has formed among the people of Weizhuo that the other side is " The inherent concept of barbarians.This concept became the main reason that historians agreed that the Seven Prisons began to collapse at the end of the second year of the war.

The leaders of the Seventh Prison naturally know that their cultural and economic disadvantages will be continuously magnified during the endlessly protracted war, so their main strategic goal for long-term hard work and accumulation of strength is to achieve military superiority within at least half a standard year Completely conquer the other party, or at least sign an alliance under the city if the other party surrenders unconditionally.However, underestimating Wei Zhuo's ability to research and develop cutting-edge weapons under the huge population and economic advantages made it impossible for Seven Supervisors' military advantages to be quickly transformed into political advantages.

In the end, the same exhausted and exhausted Vizo army, with the support of the people spared no effort, began to counterattack.A year later, all the territory of the Seven Prisons, as well as the capital, were captured by the Vizo army.

Morning Singer, the fortress planet described at the beginning of this article, which can only be reached by faint star light, today is another day of lightning and thunder.The raindrops mixed with ammonia and water made the whole land reflect the lights from the starships.

The gloomy weather also seems to be telling the tragedy of the three-year counter-insurgency war.Nearly 2052 million soldiers and one billion civilians on both sides died in this unjust war.And today, November [-], [-] in the Universal Era, is the day when the Vizo unified government army parades and presents prisoners after the rebellion of the Seventh Supervisor and Dosvila has been completely put down.

Among the heads of the seven military districts, four lost their heads forever with the last ruler of the Dosville district, and two were imprisoned forever in this sunless place.A person was deprived of all wealth and status, and was exiled forever on a border planet named NNGC 4645 Delta, where there were only numbers and letters in the name, and there were only endless jungles and rivers on the surface.

On the morning song star, perhaps just like its name, this planet without morning and day, uses its unique singing to satirize the various mindless behaviors of the human species for self-interest.

All the historical events in this essay are based on the third volume of "The History of Human Universe Development".After nearly 300 years of splitting, human beings living and scattered in the Virgo supercluster have finally entered the era of Vizo's unification.This era has given mankind nearly 400 years of peace and stability.Although there was such a tragic and vicious event as the Qijian Rebellion in the early days of Weizhuo, in the eyes of historians, this counter-insurgency war completed the unfinished part of the unification war ten years ago.

Although the wheel of history has repeatedly warned human beings that those unreasonable and injustice will eventually bite human beings themselves, but it seems that human beings as a whole are more willing to use sacrifices and casualties to continuously add new footnotes to such behaviors.
