A Colossus rushes in at the start

Chapter 315 The Civilizational Trend is Too Divided

The proliferation plan proposed by Lu Shang was reviewed by all the high-ranking military officials in the General Command before being submitted to the other high-ranking officials of the Prinkia civilization.

The high-ranking officials of the Principe civilization are not stupid. Apart from the rotten system of hereditary succession that allows mediocre people to rise to power, the big shots who have climbed to the top of power step by step are generally very smart. They are all shrewd and capable. When others see an event, they can directly deduce several things from the details of the event and see the reasons behind the development of the event.

What are fundamental contradictions, secondary contradictions, principal contradictions, etc.?

Therefore, these important figures could see the impact of Lu Shang's proposed proliferation plan and its disastrous consequences for the Pulinka civilization at a glance.

To meet the demands of war, the Pulinka civilization needs to expand. However, if the expansion becomes too large, the current Pulinka civilization's administrative system will bear a huge burden, leading to a sharp decline in efficiency.

This inevitably leads to the splitting of other Plinka regimes. To put it in computer terms, civilization is like a computer, and the political system is like the built-in processor. Now that the computer has to perform more calculations, in order to ensure that the performance does not decline, it must be transformed from a single-core processor to a multi-core processor.

Once the proliferation plan is implemented, the Pulinka civilization will inevitably face disintegration in the future.

Even worse, in the future, the people of Plinka might wage a fierce civil war between different political systems in an effort to restore the unity of their civilization.

These are all foreseeable future events!

However, the Pulinka civilization currently has no choice. Other interstellar civilizations are forming alliances and their size far surpasses that of the Pulinka civilization. Moreover, Lu Shang, the "God of War," has clearly stated that he cannot compensate for the overwhelming size through strategy. In order to avoid extinction, the Pulinka civilization's leadership has no choice but to implement a proliferation plan.

Often, decision-making isn't about choosing the best option at a particular point in time, but rather about selecting the option with the least terrible outcome.

The Prinkia Civilization Administrative Star – Freon.

Upon seeing the proliferation plan issued by the civilization's higher-ups, the governors and deputy governors of the administrative planet all changed their expressions drastically. Just by looking at this proliferation plan, they already realized the inevitable situation that would occur in the future.

"Are we really going to push through such a plan? This is insane!" The deputy governor looked at the governor with disbelief.

The governor of the administrative star shook his head and said, "This is not something that you or I can decide. Besides, given the current war situation, we Pulinka people don't have many other options."

Then, the governor changed the subject, saying meaningfully, "Moreover, this may be an opportunity for us who have seen the situation clearly in advance."

What good is intelligence? At most, it can only help you see the general trend. The general trend is unstoppable. It is an inevitable choice that civilization has to make for survival. Anyone who dares to stand in the way is destined to become a sinner against civilization.

Therefore, even knowing the future outcome, the governor did not feel much burden, since it was not something he could solve.

Upon hearing the governor's words, the deputy governor understood what he meant and looked at him with some surprise: "You don't mean to...?"

"I can't say," the governor interrupted.

The deputy governor considered it for a moment, then said with difficulty, "Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

The governor replied, "Even if we don't do it, others will. Since it's destined to be this way, why should we hand over this benefit to other families? This is an opportunity given to all families by that God of War, and it's also the general trend of the entire Mother Civilization. This trend is irreversible."

The Prinkia civilization is destined to split into multiple political systems in the future. So who will be the builders of these political systems?

It certainly won't be those people at the bottom of society. They have no resources, no connections, no information, and no power; they are completely penniless.

Therefore, the only entities capable of constructing these new political systems are the local power brokers of each administrative planet.

It could be a powerful family, a large corporation, or a major capitalist force. Ordinary people are not without a chance, but the probability of such an opportunity is even lower than winning the lottery.

"I've told you so much, do you understand what I mean?" The governor looked at the other person with an inquiring gaze.

The deputy governor naturally understood the meaning behind the other party's words: they intended to form a family alliance on this matter and work together to advance and retreat in the face of future trends.

"I understand that working together can maximize benefits. What kind of alliance does your Fox family plan to arrange?" the deputy governor asked.

The governor said, "No need for arrangements, old friend. With your approval as the patriarch of the Light Vein family, I trust your family."

After realizing the opportunity for their families to advance further, the Fox and Lightpulse families quickly formed an alliance through simple exchanges.

This was indeed a bit hasty, but time waits for no one. In these matters, whoever seizes the initiative first will benefit the most.

……

The once unified Princa civilization was gradually showing cracks due to the interests of different groups, all of which were observed by the Babel bees hiding in the shadows.

"The inevitable fragmentation of civilizations is truly tragic," commented one of the medium-sized beings.

"As expected."

In a beehive network, a beehive expresses its opinion.

Another hive said, "But that doesn't matter, because there are alien civilizations outside the Pulinka civilization. These powerful threats will act like adhesives, binding the Pulinka civilization, which is tending to split apart, together from the outside. The Pulinka civilization can confidently and boldly expand its size."

The implementation of the proliferation plan means that the Pulinka civilization will inevitably face a situation of civilizational fragmentation in the future, but this will only occur if there is no external threat.

As long as those interstellar civilizations hostile to the Pulinka civilization still exist, they could threaten the lives of all Pulinka people at any time. What these enemies want to do is exterminate the Pulinka race.

No Plinka could accept the extermination of their race by a different race. Therefore, when faced with interstellar civilizations forming alliances, even though the Plinka civilization was too large and had split into numerous factions and different political systems, they would temporarily put aside their conflicts and unite to eliminate the hostile external civilizations.

Even if there are some different ideas among the vast number of forces, and they do not always prioritize the continuation of the race, but value personal interests above all else, it is not a big deal.

This kind of force is destined to exist for a short time in the Pulinka civilization before being wiped out by other forces, or even through collusion with those at the bottom.

The Plinka people who don't care about the continuation of their race are ultimately a minority. When faced with important issues, every Plinka person has a scale in their heart. If one side of the scale is pressed too low, it will cause resentment.

A faction cannot be composed entirely of selfish and self-serving leaders. The dirty work and hard work always have to be done by someone. If a faction goes too far and makes its lower-level Prinkians feel disgusted, then its disintegration is only a matter of time.

"To incorporate the enemy's power into our own, it's no wonder that Lu Shang's main brain easily accomplished something we hadn't even considered," a planetary creature remarked admiringly. Only now did the planetary creature understand how some of the problems with the proliferation plan had been cleverly solved.
