Chapter 238 The International Alliance Is Too Divided
This quarter is a quarter enough to be recorded in history by the Ska people. It is a quarter when the entire Ska civilization has entered a turning point in history. Aliens that should only exist in science fiction works, in this quarter, really Visited Leka, the home planet of the Skas.

These aliens are different from the traditional aliens in the sci-fi works of the Skas. They did not drive spaceships one by one, across the light-year scale between stars, and arrived at the parent star system of the Skas. It is driving a planet, spanning a long distance on a light-year scale.

The sci-fi creators of the Ska people felt that their previous imagination seemed too barren. Aliens did not drive spaceships but planets.

Is there a possibility that spaceships are actually like bicycles in alien society?
Is there a possibility, in fact, this kind of planet that can span the light-year scale belongs to the category of "spaceship" in the cognition of aliens?

This season is the season of sci-fi explosions. The enthusiasm of all sci-fi creators in the Ska society has been ignited, because there is a living example of aliens appearing in space.

Regardless of the strange direction in which the ideological trend of the Ska society has gone, the Ska government is facing a formidable enemy.

In just a few days, the international coalition composed of various countries quickly passed the "Reka Mutual Defense Treaty" bill-this treaty stipulates that although the Ska people have differences within themselves, as part of the overall civilization, each All countries have the responsibility and obligation to jointly resist alien invaders. Any alien enemy attacking one of the treaty countries in any form is equivalent to declaring war on all treaty countries.

The reason why the Ska countries are so aggressive is that they feel a direct threat.

People say that when the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up, but the countries are the tallest 'tall people' in the Ska society. If the sky really falls, the countries on the planet Reka will be the first to fall.

Ordinary Ska people can go to their government if they have an accident, but if the government has an accident, they can only solve it by themselves, and there is no one above the country.

The International Joint Conference is different from the usual conferences, this time the conference is as noisy as a busy city.

The meeting was divided into four factions because of the different coping strategies of different countries.

"Space development policy must give priority to heavy industry, and military industry must be given priority in heavy industry. We Ska people must build their own space army to resist the threat of aliens."

This is the military radicals headed by the Sog coalition government. They advocate the construction of a space fleet belonging to the Ska civilization to prevent possible space wars.

The other faction is the industrial research and development faction headed by the Madrien Comprehensive Federation.

"Against this kind of radicalism, no one on the entire planet Reka has fought a space war. We don't know how to deploy defenses in space, how to defend against incoming enemies, and how to attack enemies."

"In space, the development of heavy industry must be given top priority, but the construction of military industry can lag behind. Military research and development should be given top priority. The space battlefield is different from the ground. New battlefields will inevitably require new equipment and new military ideas."

These two factions are not opposed to space wars. On the contrary, they believe that space wars may break out at any time after the appearance of aliens on the Z-16 star.

However, the two factions have relatively large differences on the development focus of the space industry.

The other two factions fundamentally differ from those who advocate military affairs.

They are the peace negotiation faction headed by the Kingdom of St. Mena, and the economic development faction headed by the Ska Holy Business Alliance.

"The aliens from the Z-16 star came here at a superluminal speed. This technology alone is enough to form a military crush on our Ska people."

"War can only be the last resort. Peaceful negotiations should be used as the main means to minimize space conflicts and avoid the outbreak of space wars."

The peace negotiation faction believes that war is always the last resort, and negotiating is definitely the best way, and no one will die and will not destroy flowers and plants.

Moreover, the aliens of the Z-16 star are obviously far superior to the Ska people in terms of technology. Just letting the star Z-16 span the long distance between the stars is already beyond the Ska people's imagination.

How could the Ska people beat such an opponent.

The military radicals and the industrial research and development faction who advocated the military scoffed at each other, disdainful of the claims of the peace negotiation faction.

"Weakness will only make the other party want to push forward. Sufficient force and deterrence is the fundamental force to defend the truth."

"The aliens on the Z-16 star are unlikely to master superluminal technology. In other words, they may be technically similar to our Ska people."

"The proof is in the way they capture the probe we launched towards Z-16."

"If they really have super-light speed technology, they can drive a small spacecraft with super-light speed technology to the vicinity of our detector, and then return at super-light speed after capture, which is faster. However, they use traditional working fluid propulsion .”

"That is to say, if a space war does break out, we are not without a chance of winning."

The two factions believe that the aliens of the Z-16 star have not mastered the superluminal technology, but the level of the Ska people’s detection technology is backward, and the celestial body orbit of the Z-16 star is very long, extending beyond the Kuiper belt , each revolution period is very long, so the Ska people have not discovered the existence of the Z-16 star until now.

The amount of energy needed to move a star is astronomical. Compared with thinking that aliens moved Z-16 star to their Ska people's parent star system, the two factions are more willing to believe that Z-16 star is originally their mother star system. Part of a star system that just hasn't been discovered before.

The economic development faction headed by the Ska Holy Business Alliance did not speak for the peaceful negotiation faction, and they also could not agree with the naive idea of ​​peaceful negotiation.

"Why don't you understand that the development of heavy industry led by the government is not as good as the spontaneous industrial development of the people. The free market economy and industry are the right path, which can fully mobilize the enthusiasm and creativity of the people."

"Economic development has never been forced by power, but created by the spontaneous labor of the people. Only when the enthusiasm of the people is fully mobilized can the construction of the space industry be completed quickly."

"The development of the space industry should be dominated by civilian industries, and the government should only play a guiding role."

The so-called economic development faction advocates that the development of the space industry be apportioned to every Ska person. The government cannot and does not need to bear the financial deficit of industrial development to minimize the cost of space industry development.

After the private space industry develops to a certain level, it will be fine to nationalize these private space industries.

This is to consider the construction of the space industry from an economic point of view. From the perspective of economic development, war is an economic account, and industry is just a physical manifestation of the economy. If the economy is run well, it will be a small matter how many space warships you want at that time. question.

The four factions all have their own ideas, and they don't like each other's ideas. Therefore, the Ska people's civilization has never been able to reach a unified opinion.

The only point of consensus is that the space industry must be developed, and the Space Force must also be built.
