Start sweeping the universe by rubbing the CPU with your hands.

"In this way, you humans will not suffer too much loss, which is considered a gain.

Hongyang's side received compensation and an apology, gained face, and had a reasonable explanation internally. In this way, it could calm internal public opinion and eliminate the war invisible. "

The envoy's face was serious.

Liu Yuan's expression gradually became serious.

It was impossible for him to agree to the request of the special envoy of Yunguang Civilization. Because from the beginning, Hongyang Civilization has blocked the way for out-of-court settlements, human civilization, and Hongyang Civilization to gain face.

The key lies in those four clauses.

If the initial request for the lawsuit is only to seek compensation for personal compensation, then this option is still open to discussion.

But with the addition of the following three items, humans have been forced to a dead end. They can only resist to the end and cannot give in.

The Hongyang Civilization went so far in the beginning, but you humans actually gave in in the end?

Once we give in, how will human civilization deal with itself?

The most critical point is that it was entirely the Hongyang people who took the initiative to escalate the situation to the point where it is now out of control and unable to step down.

This made Han Yang feel a sense of conspiracy.

But he did not directly reject Special Envoy Yunguang, but said: "I need to discuss it with my colleagues. I will give you an answer tomorrow."

"it is good."

He directly summoned all the ruling committee members and narrated the words of Special Envoy Yun Guang, and everyone fell into deep thought together.

Not right, not right.

At this moment, Han Yang's brain was running wildly. Model after model was built, and model after model was overturned.

“We have reason to believe that the Hongyang people knew that we were unlikely to agree to their out-of-court settlement conditions, but still took the initiative to escalate the situation to the point where it is now beyond control.

I believe that the essence of this incident is that Hongyang Civilization is looking for excuses for war.

Hongyang Civilization wants to start a war against us. "

But...what's the reason? Why?

If it is said that it is because humans have robbed the business of the Hongyang people, the Hongyang people cannot swallow this breath. Even children will not believe this reason.

even……

Now Han Yang suspected that this incident was a trap from the beginning.

At the beginning, the Hongyang people approached humans to participate in the planet transformation project, in order to let humans know that they planned to supply biological resources to the Yunguang people on a large scale;

Subsequently, when more than twenty human engineers were killed in the Hongyang Galaxy, Han Yang also had reason to suspect that it was deliberately done by the Hongyang people, and the purpose was to stimulate human beings' desire for revenge.

Even the loopholes in the contract signed between Hongyang and humans regarding icy asteroids and non-icy asteroids may have been intentionally left in order to relieve humans from worries about retaliation.

In this way, the three parties worked together, and the human side really fell into the trap and took revenge. While letting out a bad breath, it took away the Hongyang people's business.

Thus, an excuse was created for the Hongyang people to escalate the situation. They chose to sue in the Silver League Court and deliberately created public opinion within civilization.

At this moment, just waiting for humans to reject the mediation of Yunguang Civilization, and just waiting for the Yinmeng Court to rule against the Hongyang people, the reasons for the Hongyang people to launch a civilized war will be mature.

Could it be that... all of this is paving the way for the final war?

But the question remains, what is the reason?

Before participating in the planet transformation project of Hongyang Civilization, human civilization and Hongyang Civilization had no contact at all, and there was no so-called hatred at all.

Han Yang suddenly recalled the strange star disappearance event that occurred in the constellation Ophiuchus when human civilization was about to join the Silver Alliance.

In that incident, Han Yang suspected that there was a shadow of level six civilization behind it.

Today, Hongyang Civilization is deliberately launching a war. Is it related to the original strange incident?

"At this point, we still need to be alert to another possibility."

The tone of a ruling committee member was slightly heavy: "We cannot rule out the possibility that Yunguang Civilization also played a certain role in this."

Han Yang also had this idea.

At the beginning, it was you Yunguang people who showed interest in three kinds of creatures on earth: rabbits, sheep, and elephants, so we took revenge on the Hongyang people.

Your Yunguang Civilization has always maintained a good relationship with Hongyang Civilization. Hongyang Civilization has purchased a large amount of technology from you and has almost become half of your vassal. Now, you are helping Hongyang Civilization to propose mediation terms to us.

Could it be that Yunguang Civilization is behind all this?

But the question remains, to what purpose?

At the current stage, there was too little information, and Han Yang really couldn't see the future situation clearly.

Even the speculation at this moment is just a speculation, and its authenticity cannot be determined.

After weighing it repeatedly for a long time, Han Yang finally made a decision.

"Out-of-court settlement is not feasible."

He shook his head: "Not to mention the issue of international influence, we cannot explain it within civilization alone.

Nowadays, the development momentum of civilization is good and the spirit is high. Once the Hongyang people agree to the out-of-court settlement conditions, our civilization will also suffer a major blow. Once this energy is released, I don’t know how long it will take to get it back in the future.

Even... maybe this is the purpose of the Hongyang people. "The ruling committee members nodded solemnly.

Even if all this is the conspiracy of the Hongyang people or even the Yunguang people, they have not left any other choice for humans.

There is only one choice. If you Hongyang people want to fight, then fight.

You will know exactly what conspiracy you have after the fight.

Or do you Hongyang people really have the confidence to defeat us?

At this moment, with the birth of the dwarf planet-class battleship, and with the all-out efforts over the years to purchase technological data and increase its own research and development, the comprehensive strength score of human civilization has reached about 3.62 according to Han Yang's own estimation.

Han Yang thinks that the public information score of Hongyang Civilization is about 3.6. Counting their hidden strength - almost every civilization must have hidden strength, then the overall strength of Hongyang Civilization is about 3.7.

Although this was higher than humans, Han Yang was not worried at all. Because I am there.

Of course, this does not mean that Han Yang can despise Hongyang civilization. Because since Hongyang Civilization is so deliberately launching a war, it should have a certain degree of certainty of victory and should have more trump cards.

As for what the trump card is, Han Yang doesn't know.

But after all, it will not be a technological creation of a fourth-level civilization, nor a battleship or weapon of a fourth-level civilization.

High-level civilizations can sell technology and services to low-level civilizations, but the Silver Alliance strictly prohibits selling specific products.

This is probably considered by the Silver Alliance from the perspective of promoting the development of low-level civilization. After all, if this ban is not made, then the war between low-level civilizations will become who has more money, who can afford more high-level civilization weapons will win, and who will work hard to develop themselves?

If you don't develop, it's like the leeks won't grow. Where are we going to cut the leeks?

After the ruling committee members finally made this decision, Liu Yuan gave his reply to the special envoy of Yunguang Civilization in a formal occasion the next day.

"The responsibility for the escalation of the situation lies entirely with Hongyang. They should deal with their own problems rather than shirk the responsibility on us.

Regarding Hongyang Civilization’s proposal for out-of-court settlement, we are sorry that we cannot agree to it. "

The special envoy of Hongyang Civilization looked directly into Liu Yuan's eyes for a long time and sighed: "We really don't want to see you fighting each other."

Liu Yuan solemnly said: "We have no intention of starting a war. The initiative to start a war lies with Hongyang Civilization."

"I understand. Then, farewell."

The special envoy of Hongyang Civilization stood up and left.

From this moment on, the development strategy of human civilization has quietly made some adjustments. More industrial forces began to focus on shipbuilding, and large-scale military recruitment began again.

All the people recruited this time were human warriors, and there were no people from the other three civilizations.

The reason is very simple. At this stage, even if the Hongyang Civilization wants to start a war, the only civilization that has an excuse is the human civilization.

If the other three civilizations are involved, it will mean that the Hongyang Civilization will also have an excuse to start a war against the other three civilizations, and humans will definitely not be able to sit idly by and ignore it. This will mean that the defense zone will be increased dozens of times out of thin air.

Nowadays, all we need to do is defend humanity's own galaxy.

The risk of war appears, and the war machine quietly turns on.

"Hopefully all this preparation will be in vain."

Han Yang sighed inwardly.

On the other hand, Han Yang is also paying close attention to the progress of the Yinmeng Commercial Arbitration Court.

On this day, the time of final judgment finally arrived.

High above, the fifth-level civilized being who acted as a judge finally made a ruling on this lawsuit that had been entangled for hundreds of years: "It is now ruled that the evidence of Hongyang Civilization is insufficient to prove that human civilization violated the commercial terms of the Silver Alliance, and it is unable to prove that human civilization has taken steps to unfair competition practices.

Therefore, Hongyang Civilization’s litigation claim is dismissed. The total litigation costs are 23 silver coins, which must be paid by Hongyang Civilization within a time limit. "

The short Hongyang people all turned pale after hearing this ruling.

Then the communication was cut off.

Before long, people who had been paying attention to Hongyang Civilization’s reaction through public channels saw the Hongyang Civilization account release an extremely fierce declaration of war.

"Hongyang Civilization declares war on human civilization from now on!

More than a hundred years ago, human civilization, through despicable means, had a serious impact on the commercial development of our civilization.

And through the vicious method of exploiting loopholes, the Yinmeng Court was unable to provide justice for us.

We have no intention of questioning the Yinmeng court's judgment, and we fully abide by the Yinmeng's judgment.

However, evading the sanctions of the Silver Alliance's laws through despicable means does not mean escaping justice!

What has been taken away by humans, we will take back ourselves!

We hereby solemnly warn human civilization: Surrender to us immediately and make due compensation. Otherwise, you will pay a much higher price! "(End of chapter)
