Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

"Why do we believe in the motherland and the consul?"

"Because we believe in the mother goddess. In the apex novel, we believe in the Alfheim she created. She is the motherland and sent the consul for us."

"Who should we serve first?"

"Serve the motherland, serve the people, serve the ruling officer."

"What should we obey?"

"Faith for the country. Ruling officer. National socialist movement."

"well."

The instructor nodded.

"Assemble at the South Sports Ground in half an hour, all stand upright and disband!"

With shaved short haircuts and loose gray sportswear-very different from the traditional long hair and green short-sleeved clothing of the elves, this group of young elven students looks like a fanatical monk of a religious monk. There was a sound of "click" heels together, dozens of arms in a modest military salute, followed by the sound of moving chairs, and the sound of footsteps kicking and kicking-no matter what, they all sounded like a person. of.

On the playground outside the classroom, a physical education teacher is teaching first-year freshmen to do stretching gymnastics, teaching them to bend over to reach their toes. On the other side, dozens of third graders in camouflage uniforms are practicing grenades.

From Minerva's point of view, it was not like a school at all. It reminded her of the barracks and prison scene. Standardized buildings in different categories, residents in uniform, high walls and patrol guards.

What she didn't know is that the level of militarization of this ordinary elementary school is relatively low. At Roland’s alma mater, the Alfheim Junior Military School, the elementary school carried a wooden gun. The middle school conducts live ammunition shooting and firearm assembly. After entering the Youth League, it is necessary to learn the use of infantry artillery, mortars and iron fist rocket launchers. Every month, it also has to perform collaborative exercises with the "National Charge"-riding a bicycle Carrying a semi-automatic rifle with a grenade in his waist and two iron fists on the handlebars, he practiced street fighting when the human army came.

Yalfheim is such a place where all the people are soldiers. The government, while granting the people various benefits including compulsory education, requires the citizens to assume the obligation to defend the country. And tell them why they need it in various ways. For well-known reasons. Ordinary elf citizens also feel that this is the minimum guarantee that allows them to live in peace every day and willingly accept daily military training.

Perhaps some people think that this is a delusion of murder, which is purely anxiety. But in Minerva's view, this is a creepy landscape.

Although the governor said nothing. From the current contact with elves. Quite a few elves oppose external expansion. but. Sometimes the threat is not direct, even at the physical level. As a member of the royal family who has received systematic education in emperor studies and has certain political qualities. Minerva is even more worried about another threat-export revolution.

Any monarchy country has a high enough vigilance against the "revolutionary plague". Previously, the countries adopted a tacit attitude towards Charlie Man’s brutal suppression of the crown. In addition to the countries’ lack of energy and ability to intervene, the crown yelled "The king is off The slogan "Building the Republic" has greatly touched the nerves of the kings of the nations and is also a factor that cannot be ignored. After all, no one wanted to take Charlemagne for nausea, so that his restless nationals would soak up the "anti-monarchy, anti" heresy heresy, and then put the issue of the crown in the country again.

From this perspective, Yalfheim is a threat more than a crown collar.

The reasoning is simple. The "Republic of St. Esteban" was destroyed in less than a month. In addition to demonstrating the destructive power of new weapons and tactics, Charlemagne showed off a massacre and rape. This short-lived republic has no achievements worth mentioning. Except for a handful of true wise men, few people are interested in caring about the slogans and ideas put forward by a group of losers-no matter how advanced those things are, the brand of failure has overshadowed them.

Yalfheim is a successful country, and the success is jealous and frightening.

It doesn't take much effort, a few good writing pens, regularly pick some people to visit and explore Yalfheim. A rich, civilized, advanced, efficient, and clean country will appear in front of people, causing sensation and attention. Then cultivate a lot of "Yalfheim fans", those fans who are enchanted by dancing the pen in their hands, overlapping Yalfheim and their ideal country, and describing everything there as The best in the world, its culture, its way of life, and its values ​​are worthy of human learning and emulation. Next, in order to further highlight the perfection of the elven country, and also to vent their dissatisfaction, these hot guys will definitely find a target... no need to ask, this target must be their own country and polity.

It is the human country! Evil human monarch, stupid church propaganda, the evil system that exploits and oppresses the hardworking and brave people! The reason why we failed to live like Alfheim is all a matter of system, everything is a system error!

There are many more stupid people in the world who ignore their own problems and do not have the most basic sense of responsibility. These people will always look for simple reasons that they can accept and are easy to shirk. If they cannot find them, they will be unreasonable and let others be responsible for their failures. This "other" can be parents, teachers, classmates, society, or his country and the "system" that he does not know well.

Next, under the confusion of these people, more and more people began to view their lives in the same way of thinking, and dissatisfaction spread throughout the society. Social turmoil, various riots and rebellions emerged endlessly, until the entire country was tossed...

Without a shot and a shot, Yalfheim can push the nations of mankind into **** that is invincible and win the ideological struggle.

This is what Minerva is most worried about.

More troublesome than this is that there is no way to solve this crisis.

Like Wang Guanling, using "iron and blood" to solve Yalfheim once and for all will not work. Before the teams are assembled, the dark crystals will fall from the sky and begin the world's cold war.

Take a step back. Even if the angel messenger didn't do it directly, a full-fledged Yalfheim would be enough for any country that wants to use force to clear the revolutionary plague.

But if you can’t win, should you ignore them? If you can, Minerva is willing to do this, but this is pure wishful thinking. Since they dare to open various facilities to visit, they themselves represent a gesture of giving up secrecy, waiting for the time to ripen, and appearing in front of the world with a shining gesture.

——We represent the trend of the world.

I think of the confident posture of the elves to the human society in the future when they make such bold statements to the human society. The tip of Minerva's liver was trembling.

Next is the long tour itinerary. The big library, the National Concert Hall, museums, galleries... If it is normal, Minerva will still be interested in visiting despite being tired, but now looking at the schedule form. She just felt fear and irritability.

"It's lunch time soon. Or should we eat in an open-air restaurant?"

It seemed that Minerva could not conceal his tiredness. Heidrich suggested. Minerva, who was both physically and mentally exhausted, was too lazy to decide whether the dignified princess dine in the large public was proper, nodded lightly, and the Bolshey sedan quickly stopped in front of a restaurant on the Budapest street opposite the zoo. .

Heidrich wanted beer, kimchi and sausage. Roland is a sandwich and orange soda, and Minerva is a hamburger and apple juice-the "human only" wind is not blowing here, and they were able to dine on a table, curious glances from time to time around.

Rare fairness in an apartheid society.

Minerva vomited in his heart, and then he was amused by himself who could still think of such things at this time.

(There is indeed no race problem in your country, because the race in question does not exist, or it is almost gone.)

The harsh words I heard last night came to my mind again, and a bitter smile that couldn't be concealed appeared on my face.

"The most basic sociological common sense tells us that people are born unequal."

There was a low voice from Roland, and Minerva looked up subconsciously, looking at the thoughtful teenager.

"This guy said to me yesterday."

Roland said very sincerely, without any pretentiousness, it seemed that he was oppressed by the topic, and Zitong looked a little sad.

——Whether it is the family environment of birth, the various family backgrounds can give everyone different life opportunities, or the opportunities that everyone can get through hard work in life, there is no such premise as "equality". The beautiful vision of "all men are created equal" has been borrowed by countless emperors, aristocrats, bureaucrats, heads, bishops, ambitions, and revolutionaries since ancient times, but it is one that has not existed before, nor does it exist now, and I am afraid it will not be realized in the future. Beautiful fantasy.

Li Lin swayed the wine glass, telling Roland this rare truth with a rare serious tone.

In his world, the idea of ​​equality circulated in the United States of America and later throughout Europe through the French Revolution was based on the faith of Christians in God, because one of the main themes of the Bible is that "the Lord's people are equal "—There is no reason and no proof. Because of the universality of the Christian faith in Europe, the idea of ​​"innate human rights" was recognized by more and more people once it was put forward, which in turn promoted the Western modern cooking movement. However, this is not essentially different from the "Prince of Monarch Power", but the object is replaced by every ordinary Christian. The essence is still to use the strange power to chaos the God to force the definition and distortion of social phenomena.

His adoptive father is not a Christian, or someone who clearly does not believe in God, and even has a paranoid hatred of religion, but has always advocated obtaining the power that Christians have, and insists that this is a "self-evident" brain disability. As an atheist and a non-human being, he never regards persimmon oil as a truth that must be observed. But as a manager, he needs to consider the psychological conditions and feelings of the management objects. In order to avoid risks, he needs to make as many dissidents as "friends of the ruling officials" instead of rebels and revolutionary parties. So he also needs to introduce some "equality" ideas.

"Because this proves that the inequality caused by the different efforts of each person and the different races they belong to is reasonable, people should not treat this as unreasonable, but should be accepted as part of common sense."

Roland tried not to let his voice be similar to Li Lin, but he still felt that what he said from his mouth was Li Lin's serious tone at the time.

His mood became worse, even after saying this. Li Lin also made a joke: "‘Inequality is not evil, equality is the greatest evil. I really should put on a wig and say so." He is still hard to release.

"He would say that, with his opinion, from an objective fact, it is also the correct opinion. But... this way of looking at things is unavoidable..."

-It's too sad.

Minerva was silent, and a little cool heart filled Roland's unfinished words into the blank.

Do not believe in others, nor do you believe in people's goodwill, observe thoroughly, and then resolve them mercilessly. There is no dialogue and communication in the whole process, only correct and incorrect.

However, as a manager who bears the weight of the whole world by himself. This is a necessary way of thinking. But for humans. This performance is too ruthless and almost cruel.

"I feel the same."

Minerva put down the hamburger and murmured almost unconsciously.

Several school buses passed in front of the restaurant, and the bus was filled with children wearing uniforms for children's groups. All children are elated. Probably just returned from the zoo spring tour.

"Perhaps the apartheid system is indeed a more advanced and moderate means of reconciliation than countries. What I have seen so far does show results. But... I don't want to be a beast in a cage for tourists to visit."

The feelings held in my heart were spit out, and there was a little lightness on my somber face.

Being placed in the position of the weak and managed, isolated and treated differently-such a thing has never been experienced. It is precisely because she has experienced the polite "equal but segregated" in person that she can only feel the disgust of this system.

"So even if it's inconvenient, try to make the different races understand each other. It's not about succumbing to which side to succumb to which side, but to find a compromise that can compromise each other. Even if the road is sinister, Keep going."

No longer sighing, there was a trace of perseverance in the purple pupil, looking at the teenager's optimistic profile, Minerva nodded and heard Roland say:

"First, we must start with the ‘Scott case.”

##########

The black tea on the table has lost its temperature, but no one has to replace it, leaving the liquid ruby-like premium beverage exposed to the dull air.

It is the prerogative of the Captain of the Guard to brew a drink for the Archon. If the Captain of the Guard cannot serve on his side, the Archon will do it himself. The party’s explanation for this shareful behavior is that “others’ tea can’t be drunk at all, and making tea by themselves can also help change the way of thinking. Since no one could match Li Lin's beverage blending technology, everyone had to accept it.

Drinking cold tea expressionlessly, the red eyes looked down the axis of the street outside the window, reflecting the silhouette of reading one by one.

The education level of the people is closely related to the prosperity of the newspaper and publishing industry. Thanks to decades of compulsory education, Alfheim has almost no illiteracy. If the statistical scope is reduced to elves, the illiteracy rate is zero. Therefore, cultural industries such as newspapers and magazines are flourishing.

As of now, the number of newspapers per capita in Alfheim is the highest in the world, and the elves’ passion for reading newspapers, news, and discussions often surprises first-time visitors like Minerva. No matter where they go, there are no elves in any community who do not read newspapers or listen to radio news.

Some elves who are keen on politics are also keen on running newspapers and building public opinion, because just like the right-wing chief Dr. Kapu who founded the "Black Legion" magazine said: "Only the newspaper can infuse one thought into thousands at the same time. Go to a different head. And the people, as everyone knows, are usually very lazy, even too lazy to think, and would rather believe what others tell him."

This Ph.D. should really be the Minister of Propaganda. There are not so many talents who are so deep in the spirit of Dr. Goebbels, the number one speaker of the Third Reich, that it is rare to be able to run the right-wing tabloid so successfully.

"Endless war with the enemy of national socialism."

"All traitors who betray the nation will be mercilessly suppressed by the iron fist of the elven dictatorship!"

"Never allow human resistance in the sacred Yalfheim!"

"Let the human prince realize that today's elves are no longer the people to be slain!"

As the court date of the Scott case approached, the fierce tone used in the "Black Legion" became more intense, and a group of editors who smoked the horns all day shouted "ethnic purification" and "killing humans".

That's enough.

The fingers that had been tapping on the table stopped, and the pupils refocused.

Racism, extreme patriotism, expansionism, imperialism, nationalism, pacifism, democracy...Various ideas and ideas must exist. And the meaning of its own existence. But there is a big premise: they are always just tools used to achieve a certain purpose, not the dominant power to control power and manipulate the development of the country. Once it loses value or tries to get rid of control, it will be ruthlessly abandoned and then destroyed.

This is true of the left, right, and centrists. They are just tools for governing the country.

Therefore, Li Lin can tolerate some untimely propositions, and can also accept the insights, thereby playing the roles of "charitable politician who is willing to listen to opinions" and "stern and stern parents", and carefully and carefully adjust the national development defense line. Everyone was happy in the end. When they exceed this bottom line. When he put his hand in a place where he shouldn't, he would no longer be forgiving.

In addition to political balance considerations, Li Lin also needs to squat his right wing into the corner to shut up for the future national policy.

"Pretend" seems to be available to all intelligent species. There will also be bad tendencies. To rationalize your behavior. Appropriate "installation" is also understandable. Just 10 minutes before Li Lin and Minerva talked about "the superiority of apartheid", the ruling lord just issued a three-point document: two are tenders, asking "Which is strong in disinfecting the shower room", "The cremator Which is strong". The third is a transportation order to send a batch of "oil-wrapped" Ziklon-b to the Katyn Forest in the north.

In the future, when the elven regime begins to dominate the world, it also needs to be "pretended". The ultimate solution of sending people into the gas chamber with the open fire is absolutely impossible, and too much "pretending" will not work.

The ghosts and beasts of the United States can be regarded as a negative textbook. The great "civilized communicators" wiped out the Native Americans like bed bugs until they finally drove all the Indians into the barren "reservation area", and the race was on the verge of extinction. Waiting 200 years later, the "Human Hope Empire" was at its peak. The descendants of the colonists then took out the aborigines who were almost killed by their ancestors, and held up the "protecting traditional culture" fart curtains for the lost Indian customs and beliefs. People built theme park-style demonstration projects to decorate the facade of this country. Put on tolerance and taste. In their words: "For those in the past, we can't do anything anymore, but at least we can do something for the aborigines now." Then, the ghosts of the United States who "cooked in faith and respected human rights" held themselves The bad debts of the ancestors acted as a reason to do business, and unscrupulously sold the world's output values ​​to the world. In the end, in addition to the die-hard brain fans, the whole world has become curious about their peculiar honesty and shame, and more is disgusted. When this country is finally irretrievable because of its greed and exhaustion to deal with endless enemies After the decline of each country, every country took the step of "can do something" and stepped on it...

Li Lin is not a saint, nor does he intend to make the elves a moral model, but he also does not intend to repeat those cases that have been proven to fail, creating a turbulent world. His policy for the future world is "the minority dominates the majority, and the balance of terror among various races".

In terms of geography, Israel is the one that best fits the status quo of Alfheim. If Li Lin had the same strategic needs as Uncle Sam, it would be very easy to make this world as chaotic as the Middle East, or even more chaotic. But what he needs is a firm system that can be controlled for a long time, so it is best to dominate the majority with a minority race.

The average person thinks this is ridiculous. In their view, if they want a stable society, the only reasonable way is to win over the side with more people, and at the same time fight against the sparsely populated minority that is hostile to the majority. However, in fact, it is really reasonable to use the minority to rule the majority. It is hoped that by suppressing the minority to please the majority, the situation will continue to deteriorate: the majority race will think that the ruling class is afraid of their power, using more violent and frequent To respond to the dominator. Of course, if Li Lin, like the Third Reich or the Japanese Empire, used the army or his own power to carry out the Holocaust, perhaps most people will be forced to choose to accept his rule because of fear, but the rebels will not disappear. And Li Lin's original image for Yalfheim will be completely destroyed.

Alfheim is a peace-loving, gentle and friendly country of independent elves~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is not a brutal imperialist colonialist; all its military actions are not to occupy other countries, not to enslave other races, just " "Minimum self-defense counterattack" or help other countries and countries to establish a new order of advanced civilization; what the elves are doing is a just cause... In the eyes of old foxes like Richelieu, this tone of propaganda can be described as very funny and lame. Farce. However, there are many anti-imperialists in Alfheim and the human nations. Such propaganda can deceive the vast majority of them, enable them to support the military operations of the Defense Forces, and enable them to support the government and top officials of the Alfheim, Make them believe that the elven country is a good country, and the system of Alfheim is the best in the world.

then. The international image of Yalfheim will be tall and perfect. So that it has a more favorable position in the future actions-moral commanding heights.

Li Lin is trying to shape this image. Arranging a visit to Minerva is one of them. He needs to maintain this image. But fierce ethnic conflicts and corpses everywhere will make all efforts into a loud slap for yourself, the elaborate image will completely collapse in an instant, and make Li Lin into a shameful liar and liar.

Of course, professional politicians don't care about this little thing. As an artificial life, there is no sense of morality, honor, or shame-Li Lin, collectively known as "feelings", will not be bothered by this. But since things can be done more efficiently, why not do it that way? To be continued. .
