Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

Chapter 848: 7. The Day of the White Rose on the Battlefield (5)

The dim light was swaying, and whenever an explosion occurred in the distance, the magic light suddenly flickered.

Richelieu sighed while signing his name on the document.

The pearl of the world, the never-stop city, and the capital of prosperity, Rudes. It’s like a joke now, with fire and explosion everywhere, and sin and ugliness ravaging every street. Now in Wangdu, it takes great courage to light an oil lamp. No one knows what a little light in the darkness will provoke, whether it is a burst of guns, or gangs of thugs.

Even Richelieu, who was the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, covered every window with a black cloth before lighting, to prevent the leaked light from causing unnecessary trouble.

This alone is enough to sigh, but compared with the unpredictable destiny and the extremely powerful enemy, the chaos in front of him can only be regarded as a small thing. The feeling of being put to death would drive people crazy.

In front of the mother goddess and her surrogate, humans behave like nothingness. This is not a theory promoted by religious classics, but exists as a real phenomenon. The absolutely correct deity, the brave man who acts as a proxy against evil-is an ancient legend and unshakable common sense.

Only a handful of talents who have reached his status know that God and agents of God’s will are not concepts in public perception. They do exist and interfere in the world in various forms.

Sometimes religious people who show miracles;

Sometimes it is a brave man who is invincible;

Sometimes a sage who writes books;

Sometimes the king who created the heyday;

As the world changes, it appears in different faces and subtly manages the entire world. Until a man who bears the responsibility of a divine agent is tired of this and is separated from the task.

Despite a little disapproval of the unruly man's blame and the woman's elopement, Keli Ceriu was not relieved about it. Without the agent, the man could not be condemned, and the mother **** can only gradually withdraw her hand to intervene in the world. After leaving the set track, the world will slowly and firmly develop towards the path of independent operation.

Siegfried. Otto. Li Lin. The appearance of this monster changed everything.

It now appears that Li Lin appeared in this world as a divine agent. Wisdom, strength, wrists-either aspect is in line with the concept of "the closest existence to God" in people's concepts. at the same time. He also has a coldness unimaginable in the world. As long as he can achieve his goal, he will kill thousands of people without blinking. In front of the power he holds, no one can stop or resist.

(Where did he come from? Where exactly did he go? At least if he knows this minimum information—)

Scanning the latest battle report sent by his men desperately. Richelieu couldn't help sighing.

Roland's performance is better than he expected, but this is far from enough. If you want to stop the elf camp's strategy and prevent the worst agent from purging the world in the worst case, it is really far away.

Just as the quill pen tip reached into the ink bottle. A light and pleasant voice came.

"I was still worried that it wouldn't matter if you stayed up all night. Seeing the spirit of the Prime Minister, people have to admire your sense of responsibility and full of energy."

As if afraid of the sound, the shadows in the corridor separated to the left and right, and a slender and symmetrical figure emerged.

In fact, this is an illusion, whether it is a sophisticated black suit or crow feather-like black hair, it has a camouflage-like effect in a low-light environment. The reason why it will be strongly highlighted is that the visitor's sense of existence is so strong that other things around him are completely engulfed.

"It seems that I still need to learn a lot from you, Your Excellency Richelieu."

Leather shoes stepped on the marble and made a crisp sound. The handsome black-haired teenager smiled gently, which reminded the pupils of Xuebo to print out the indifferent old face.

"I'm also surprised... in your capacity, you will actually end up acting as a lowly killer, the president of the v.e consortium, the highest governor of Alfheim, Siegfried. Otto. His Excellency Li Lin."

"Your anger is great. I haven't seen you in a while. The first sentence turned out to be this? Then--"

Raised his hand casually, killing the dagger, lightning, ice sword, and the guards hiding in the dark disappeared without a trace. If it weren’t for the unnatural circular voids on the ceiling, floor, and walls, anyone would really think that those people never existed.

"It's a good idea to spy on the strength of the other party at the expense of the subordinates. As a way of treating guests, it is too much."

A snap of fingers, the missing part was refilled back. But... if a third party witnessed the "fill back part" on the scene, I'm afraid it would vomit on the spot.

Man on fire. The frozen person, the half-transparent person, and the dissolved person-like the freely rubbing plasticine, mixed with the wall and the floor, embedded in the disappearing cavity.

"What did you do?"

"What did you do? It’s just ‘Philadelphia experiment\”.

With an elegant smile, Li Lin said lightly.

The so-called "Philadelphia Experiment". It wasn’t the great Franklin who threw a kite on thunderstorm weather and begged for thunder. It's the Philadelphia experiment (philadelphia.experiment) that has been regarded as a rumor of black technology in World War II and widely discussed by the world. However, Li Linke never thought of using the Tesla coil to play such a big transfer instantly. In fact, he transferred the material and the human body to the space of different dimensions and then sent it back. During the transmission, the material was randomly combined, resulting in a similar city. Legendary thriller effect.

"It turns out that...Although I have heard it, it is really shocking to actually witness the power of this generation of divine agents."

"It's the end of words that aren't heartfelt. My schedule is very tight. After burying you, there are still a lot of things to deal with."

"Having said so much, it's not to get rid of my bad old man."

With a bitter sigh, Richelieu's eyes showed a sharp light.

"But before I die, I would love to hear what you plan for the world, and what you are thinking of as the existence of God's agent."

"This kind of thing has nothing to do with the dying person? Anyway, in that world, someone will tell you the answer."

"It doesn't seem like it will come out of your mouth. A man who obviously doesn't believe in anything, actually said'the world after death\\\', hypocrisy also gives me a limit. Still, you are so afraid of it I am old and immortal? I am afraid that the dead will tell the secret?"

Richelieu opened his hands, mocking and disdainful.

"..."

"Talk first. I don't want to listen to the old slogans like "restoring ancient order" and "renovating the world". It shouldn't be that simple for men who mobilize the world."

"...Never mind."

Li Lin said, sitting down opposite Richelieu. The red wine and glass in the side wine cabinet flew out, the "invisible hand" pulled out the cork, and poured the liquid into the two wine glasses in turn.

"I believe you also heard from Roland. My ultimate goal is to build a relatively stable and sustainable world system. To achieve this goal, first of all, I need to build a powerful country with a constitutional monarchy."

Is there the best system in the world? Just as there are one hundred Hamlet in one hundred hearts. Different people have different opinions on this question, and most people find it difficult to agree with different answers from themselves.

For example, the United States Confederation of the United States that recognizes slavery and the United States of America that is determined to abolish slavery at all costs;

For example, the authoritarian German Empire, Japanese Empire, and "democratic" Mi Ying ghosts;

For example, to make nuclear weapons like sausages, and to think about the two camps of the East and the West, "Elimination of Tyranny" and "Liberation of All Mankind";

However, if we can put aside the shackles of emotional factors, humanism, and dialectical systems with pure realism and utilitarianism, the simple truth that “white cats and black cats, catching a mouse is a good cat” becomes the best. answer.

There is no good or bad system, only a system that can adapt to the times and can continue to function well-the highest executive of Alfheim’s view of the system is just like his attitude towards everything: reality, coldness, Efficiency comes first. So when designing the blueprint for the future world, he chose the constitutional monarchy without hesitation.

It cannot be another system, only a constitutional monarchy like the Second German Empire and the Old Japanese Empire. Be more specific. It is Japan close to the German Empire under the rule of William I and the Taisho Democracy era.

The cabinet party system under the monarch can satisfy the demands of the liberals for "constitution" and "expansion of the people's participation in politics", which restricts the scope of military forces' participation in politics and also reserves the stage for the conservatives to play. As the supreme monarch, the de facto dictator, what Li Lin has to do is to play a "good king" who is willing to listen to the voice of the people, and use his influence behind the scenes to adjust the territory of various factions in the parliament and then let his own Ideas and ideas can be carried through.

Of course, trying to satisfy everyone must result in dissatisfaction. Take a look at some of the Maoxiong who wanted to reform the serf system, and the tsar who died of being smothered in a pillow, poisoned, poisoned, and killed on the street knew it. Moreover, the soon-to-be-generated elven country must be a regime in which a minority rule the majority, and its nature determines the inevitability of racism and hierarchy. Therefore, sacrificing the "ruled nation" to satisfy the "excellent ruling nation" has become the most reasonable choice. If a democratic country encourages racism. The result is torn apart by opposing ethnic groups. Playing this set in the country will make the supreme ruler a conspicuous target. In the minds of the people, the distance between "little dad" and "fool" is much closer than most people think. The constitutional monarchy can somewhat avoid similar problems, anyway, it seems to the general public. The bills were all made up by the "" in the parliament. The monarch himself was forced to agree with "public opinion" and "law".

In the cloak of "enlightened" and "democratic" and under the name of "acting in accordance with the Constitution", it is actually a monarch and a hierarchy, which is the essence of a constitutional monarch. As long as the monarch is wise enough, he can indeed hold the army in good shape. Don't be fooled by system loopholes such as "independence of the commander's power" and "active duty system of the army and navy ministers." For a long time, this country will be quite peaceful.

"This is the first stage goal."

Playing with the wine glass, the red mirror reflects a gentle smile.

"Based on a constitutional monarchy, the second phase will be supplemented by political means and military power, integrating economic industrial structure, and integrating the Empire and the remaining Charlemagne into a huge production base and consumption area. Foreign economic output, adjust the international economic supply and demand structure, the final third stage goal is to establish a global system of international supply and demand circulation completely under the control of the elf camp."

Among the iron triangle of politics, military and economy, the most important thing is the economy, which can be called the foundation of the iron triangle. In the final analysis, politics and military actually **** the economy.

To be more straightforward. Whoever controls the world economy will control the world.

The foundation of the economy is precisely "supply" and "demand", which control these two sources. To control the circulation link is to hold the eggs of the whole world. If you want to listen to the call, hold on tightly. If anyone dares to resist, just pinch his eggs.

In Li Lin's vision. The new sacred Gilmanian empire will play the role of consumer and producer in the division of labor in the global industrial chain. The empire as a consumer country is at the top of the globalization division of labor and is responsible for providing export demand, as well as exporting liquidity and standards and agreements in terms of systems and technologies. The empire, as a producing country, controls the export of commodities to various countries and produces "everything" needed by each country.

If the world economy is compared to a river, the Holy Gilmanian Empire is equivalent to controlling the upstream (supply) and downstream (demand), and the resource and consumer countries in the middle reaches-the countries that have failed industrialization and backward technology have become The fish in the coffer, let the empire get what it wants.

Imagine facing a guy who is both a producer and a landlord, an industry rule maker, and finally a part-time police judge. What can consumers and long-term workers do?

Nothing can be done, nothing can be done.

The system exported by the empire consists of three parts. The political dimension is the international alliance, and the economic and financial dimensions are the global monetary system. In terms of trade, it is an international trade organization, that is, something like wto. This is the top-level design of global production and collaboration.

The borders of the country are the result of war. Every borderline has used blood and fire, swords and swords for a long time in history. It was drawn with an airplane cannon. In the global industrial chain division of labor system under the dominance of the empire, the territory of the economy was drawn by Mark. Where Mark flows, it will prosper. Where Mark evacuates, there will be a depression. This is the regional distribution law of global liquidity. At the same time, Mark's global flow has a periodic tide law.

As consumer countries, countries are pure debt consumers and do not provide anything of substantial value to the global division of labor. They are just a link in the recycling chain of the international economy and are responsible for spending part of the Empire's revenue and expenditure surplus. In this way, the nations can form a balance with the empire as a whole. As a resource country, they provide all kinds of resources needed by imperial industry and export cheap labor in exchange for capital and imperial industrial products.

On the surface, it is a fair and reasonable win-win situation. But the devil is always hidden in the details. If the "universal settlement currency is uniformly denominated in Imperial Mark" is included in the overall observation, it will be found that this is a bottomless pit that eats people and does not spit bones.

The value of the resource country depends on the type and quantity of its resources, which is reflected on the book, which is the external reserve surplus and the exchange rate of the local currency; the value of the producer country depends on its production capacity; the value of the first consumer country is determined by the money printing machine Yes, you don’t have to do anything, just by printing money, you can live your life.

In the entire economic circulation system, resource countries have the least right to speak. The resources they have mined from their own land are priced by the Imperial Mark and settled by the Imperial Mark. The resource country itself has no right to bargain. And they are the least resistant to the financial disasters associated with the tide of the imperial mark. As soon as the imperial central bank raises interest rates, their foreign exchange reserves are in a hurry, and their local currency will depreciate sharply, followed by the decline of the people's livelihood. If the empire attacks the price of commodities again in the capital market where it has the pricing power, I am afraid that without one shot, one can see the spectacular scene of "the sky is full of corpses, the whole country is unemployed."

The status of the second-tier consumer countries is not much better, they are responsible for digesting the industrial capacity of the empire, that is, buying a large amount of various commodities and industrial products produced by the empire. Since the guarantee equivalents of Imperial Mark are all kinds of industrial products it produces, countries can only buy industrial goods or valuable bonds issued by the Empire after resources are exchanged for Mark, that is, a large amount of Imperial Mark and national bonds flow into various countries.

The average person may think that it is a good thing to have money in, but please don’t forget that the essence of paper money is a piece of paper that reflects value through credit. Its value depends on the value of the collateral linked to it and the volume of issuance. Once the empire started the currency printing machine for currency expansion, the world economy began to rise, and the prices of risky assets rose. By the time the empire contracts, the global economy will soon mourn, and the prices of risky assets will frequently collapse. The prices of safe-haven assets skyrocketed. As much as risky assets can fall, hedging assets can rise as much.

In this tide of rising and falling monetary value, through inflation taxes, the empire relied on old debt like cheating. After losing debt. Then, through the currency backflow mechanism, borrow low-interest and cheap marks again. After that, a new round of currency expansion will be carried out, and inflation taxes will continue to be collected from other countries. This process is commonly known as shearing wool. This action is clear, and this is the normal mint tax. There are also cheating secretly. This is the tide of monetary value.

In the global system of division of labor, the empire exported capital to the occupied areas and remaining Charlemagne, mainly as a direct investment by a consortium. After obtaining capital and projects, the monopoly enterprises go to the resource country to purchase raw materials and send them to the empire for production. After the production of the product is completed, part of the empire digests it and then exports it to various countries. The empire paid marks to the occupied area and Charlemagne as payment for settlement. After Charlemagne got the mark, because of the huge scale of the trade surplus, in the international market, how to manage and invest is a problem. Because the accumulated foreign exchange reserves cannot be used to purchase the core high-quality assets of the empire. So Charlemagne can only buy imperial national debt with low interest rates.

The empire obtained the mark that flowed through the purchase of low-interest empire national debt, and then entered the occupied area, reinvested and controlled high-quality assets, and obtained high investment returns and profits. This is to use the asymmetrical rules for the third shearing of wool. The currency circulation between consumer countries, producer countries, and resource countries is thus established.

This set of mechanisms is actually the final form of g2 conceived by Midi on the earth in the early 21st century. Europeans once pointed out with a sharp point that "Kitu is the most evil alliance in the world", and it really makes Eagle Sauce a thing. The rhetoric of President Black Charcoal's "continue to lead the world for 100 years" is more than just rhetoric. However, Eagle Sauce is a bit of a miss. The place that is the base of the sweatshop in the concept is the head of the rabbit, not the head of the bald Kaishen. As the only big-tail gangster among the five gangsters who has worked with the United Nations, rabbits and balds are only pronounced similarly. The strength of the kneecap and vertebrae is not a grade.

Now, this "world's most evil alliance" will be realized by the elven camp.

"No one will allow this kind of system to be established, the countries will not be silent about it, and the Charlemagne will not endure it all the time. It would have been delusion to establish a set of game rules that are absolutely beneficial to oneself. "

Richelieu's face was green. Domination of the world with economic warfare is unprecedented in history. So far, no one has put forward the relevant theoretical ideas. Although it is a plan to talk about things on paper, it is indeed a more realistic plan than trying to use force.

The only exception is the "absolutely beneficial to oneself" section.

How many great powers and powers have planned "absolute hegemony" from ancient times to the present, but including Charlemagne now, they have finally gained hostility around them. The reason is also very simple. Everything is relative. One party's "absolute security" means other people's "absolute insecurity." Whenever someone seeks his "absolute advantage" or "monopoly", his past allies and enemies will unite and hit him. Such examples are common in history.

It can be expected that at that time, the countries will form political, economic, and military alliances to oppose the exclusive interests of the empire, just like the current anti-Charlemagne alliance.

It's just... what's the use?

"What do you think they can do? Who do you think they are playing against? Your Excellency?"

First, from the most basic economic level, they cannot threaten the empire.

People in charge of the economy in various countries rarely pay attention to the most basic principle of economics-only precious metal foreign exchange is used as a collateral, but at the same time there is no matching amount of living materials, production materials, industrial products, and agricultural products. The currency is still only one. The piece of paper printed with digital symbols has no meaning and is no different from a military ticket.

If governments of all countries think that they are engaged in trade barriers, refuse v. The goods produced by the e-consortium are based on the gold standard to engage in their own small trade circles-by this way, the Empire can be defeated like Charlemagne, then they are too naive.

The common people need chai rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea. They cannot eat gold, silver, and banknotes. These things can only be meaningful to them if they can be exchanged for chai rice, oil, salt, vinegar, kerosene, matches, cotton cloth, and other living supplies. The above materials have production in various countries and their colonies. Although the output cannot be compared with the consortium, it is enough to engage in self-sufficiency. Transportable routes are all exposed to the empire’s air and sea forces. As long as the empire is fine to play military exercises today, draw a no-fly zone and no-fly zone tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, I accidentally "lost" a few mines or "misfired" a few torpedoes... I believe that countries will soon see prices soaring and currencies depreciating.

What's more, the elf camp has been slowly increasing the prices of fabrics and finished clothing to induce countries to reduce the area of ​​food arable land and increase the output of cash crops, so that countries such as Albian and Castile have annual food production in overseas colonies. Production accounts for a large part. Once the sea-air channel is cut off. The local food crisis will erupt immediately. At this time, the elf camp then used biotechnology to launch the final blow to the agriculture of the countries, and then they would really lose their lives.

The supply of materials is the foundation of currency stability. If you don't understand this, you should wait to be killed.

"This is crazy."

Richelieu shook his head.

"Rather than tightening the neck a little bit, people would rather choose to burn both jade and jade."

"So this war is needed. What better than an overwhelming victory to show the military power enough to succumb to everyone. Let them think about the consequences before they take stupid action, whether they want to raise it or not table."

The voice is as stable as before, but the content is as tough as Richelieu.

The lightly smiling face overlaps with Roland’s comment that “He is an extremely dangerous person.” If it were him, destroying any country, or even eradicating mankind, is nothing more than raising his finger. Bargaining, like typhoons, earthquakes, floods, and other natural disasters, is no different from delusion.

"Please don't get me wrong, I just want deterrence. Mass extinction is the last resort, not the end. There are more effective methods than this. You can open the door with a key, why should I get an axe?"

There are never fewer countries and individuals who want to rebel against the economic hegemony system and control their own destiny. Let Roland play the role of "valor", also for the sake of letting dissatisfaction get vented. It's just that outside the "controllable catharsis pipeline", the end of "wild rebels", especially national-level rebels, is often not so wonderful. Generally, the country is killed, the creatures are painted, and incidentally it becomes a test and exhibition venue for high-tech military equipment. If anyone wants to get rid of the hegemony of Imperial Mark, then the imperial team has to mobilize to solve the "humanitarian crisis". Let some rule challengers experience the ending of Saddam and Gaddafi. what? Is there no humanitarian crisis in your country? Don't worry, there will be soon.

As for the attitude towards this hegemonic act within the empire... The elves needlessly say that apart from the anti-imperialist elements, everyone will definitely say, "I'm relieved to see the motherland like this hooligan." Since childhood, he has accepted a series of class division methods such as "happy learning" and "inclined educational resources." Most of the humans who can only work in the junior industry are exhausted just for three meals a day. The fate of foreigners who are not directly related to themselves?

Finally, in post-war reconstruction, the consumption caused by the war can also be used as part of the economic cycle to inject a certain degree of vitality into the market.

Everything will work smoothly. The world and humanity will also survive the cycle. Gratifying and congratulatory, gratifying and congratulatory.

"Before the final stage of the plan, many ideas and policies still need to be tested, compared, reviewed, adjusted based on the test results, and then put into promotion. Charlemagne is to play the role of the specimen. Regardless of the experimental results , The impact can be controlled, if there is a problem, just use'now is in wartime \\\','the war has happened \\\' to cover up the past."

Richelieu lost his words, and his always cold face did not conceal his overwhelmed mood.

This idea is too ambitious, beyond his understanding, and the means adopted by no one have ever thought of it. Until the final structure appears, no one can say whether this is a delusion of a lunatic or a creative idea of ​​a genius.

can……

Compared with these, it is as smooth as a mechanical complaint, an unshakable smile from beginning to end-this person ~ www.readwn.com ~ no, this mirror image that exudes inhumanity is even more creepy.

Swallowing palpitations strongly, Richelieu asked:

"What is Roland to you?"

"Your question is too general to be answered. It's like asking'what is human\\\'. How do you answer this question? Biology, philosophy, sociology, politics, ethics Explain all of the angles?"

"Then I ask another question, what is the purpose of ‘adopting Roland\\'? Part of a huge experiment? On a whim? Reserve special talent for the composition of the future world?"

"All count."

Twisting the corners of his mouth, Li Lin's voice sounded as if she was prepared for everything.

"According to different situations, there can be different application methods. Simply speaking from the basic purpose and starting point, it is similar to the current world. It can be said that it exists like a "note paper"." (To be continued. )
