Why not create an iron rice bowl within the base?
The reason is simple: things are valued for their scarcity. If class antagonism arises, it will only complicate matters further.
… …
On October 4th, for some reason, the 12 airships of the Austro-Hungarian Federation suddenly crossed the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea eastward, entering the territory of the Modo Grand United Republic.
The two countries engaged in fierce battles in the Ustyurt region of northern Modo.
In the end, the Austro-Hungarian Federation was completely annihilated.
On October 8th, the Austro-Hungarian Federation sent 16 airships into the area again.
Ultimately, only 2 escaped, and the rest were destroyed.
Dramatically, just two days later, on the morning of October 10th, the Austro-Hungarian Federation and the Modo Grand United Republic issued a joint statement announcing the establishment of friendly cooperative relations.
No one knows about the battles, and even less about the content of the cooperation.
After receiving this news, the Huaguo Parliament held a day-long meeting, but ultimately came to no conclusion.
The two mysterious superpowers are up to something, but everyone is completely baffled.
After receiving this news, Dongfang Chen initially found it a bit unbelievable, but he quickly discerned a hint of something unusual.
He didn't know about the two battles between Austro-Hungary and Modo. He just vaguely felt that their target might be Huaguo or himself.
Moreover, the possibility of targeting himself was greater.
Because some time ago, he had just destroyed more than a dozen Austro-Hungarian airships at the alien life research institute in the Oblast of Krestovsky.
And the conflict with Modo had been going on for a long time.
This is a plausible explanation for why they were able to unite.
Sure enough, three days later, on October 13th, Austro-Hungarian warships crossed the airspace of Modo and the Rossian Federation, arriving at the shores of Lake Baikal and stationing at Kudara on the east bank of the lake.
It was confirmed that they were here for revenge.
During this time, Dongfang Chen had Xiaolin crack a Yadis hibernation pod and conduct a comprehensive analysis.
Guess what?
The ones hibernating inside were indeed not humans.
They had large heads, pointed chins, and particularly large and protruding eyes.
Their arms and legs were very thin.
They were hairless, their bodies were bluish-gray, and many parts of their surface were covered in wrinkles.
If Xiaolin hadn't told him that these were from the 300 million-year-old Yadis civilization, he would have, like the Rossian scientists, classified them as extraterrestrial life forms.
Possibly because the hibernation pod was forcibly opened in a semi-violent manner, the Yadis inside died within minutes.
The liquid in the hibernation pod was also analyzed for its composition.
Most of it was some kind of polymer compound, which Xiaolin speculated should be the nutrients to maintain their bodies' normal functions.
As for why the hibernation pod had so many nutrients, enough to sustain them for hundreds of years, this was related to the function of the hibernation pod.
In fact, there weren't that many nutrients in the hibernation pod. Instead, a completely closed circulation system was formed through a special design.
The human body's excrement was reprocessed to form new nutrients for them to absorb, thus forming a closed loop.
The material in the entire circulation system did not increase or decrease, but constantly circulated between the inside and outside of the body. However, energy loss would occur during the circulation, and this part of the lost energy was supplemented by a small nuclear battery at the bottom of the hibernation pod.
In order to minimize losses, the metabolism of these hibernators was very slow.
This design was absolutely ingenious, and the technical requirements were also very high.
Now that the Austro-Hungarian Federation's warships have arrived at Lake Baikal, it's undoubtedly to cause trouble for him.
Valetov was taken aback when he learned that the Austro-Hungarian warships had arrived in the North Siberian region.
Although his consistent style was to be tough, the situation is different now, and he doesn't have the capital to be tough.
So, he contacted Dongfang Chen as soon as possible.
"Mr. Valetov, I'm sorry. Unless the Austro-Hungarian warships enter the Ulan Neutral Zone, I will not intervene."
Dongfang Chen knew that their target was himself, but it wouldn't hurt to take advantage of the situation.
"Is that so? That's easy to handle. Mr. Dongfang, from now on, I will donate the Oblast of Brit to you free of charge. The official documents will be delivered later." Valetov was decisive.
The Oblast of Brit is located on the east bank of Lake Baikal and has 350,000 square kilometers of land.
"… …" Dongfang Chen was speechless.
His purpose in taking advantage of the situation was just to make Valetov remember his favor; he didn't really want any benefits.
Originally, this matter was caused by Dongfang Chen himself, but now, it's all good, and the territory has expanded by a large chunk without him doing anything.
Kudara is located in the Oblast of Brit.
As a result, the location where the Austro-Hungarian Federation warships were stationed was now within the Ulan Neutral Zone.
Valetov acted immediately.
Before long, he issued an announcement to all countries in the world.
Modo: … … .
Austro-Hungary: … … .
Huaguo Parliament: … … .
What kind of operation is this? Does diverting disaster eastward require such a high cost?
This decision caught the Austro-Hungarian Federation off guard.
