Doctor, I'm really strong!

Liu Jiuli put down the intelligence report in his hand; Colombia's choice did not surprise him.

However, in military matters, one must be prepared for the worst. Therefore, the community has stockpiled a large number of troops on the western border, although more than half of them are new recruits. But judging from the reactions of Victoria and Colombia, this ratio can be reduced to ten to one. Then, large-scale military exercises and live-fire drills can be carried out on the border to tell the enemy that we are ready.

We also had to deliberately and accidentally fire a few shells into enemy territory, in the middle of nowhere, since it would be an accidental hit anyway.

The more arrogantly they provoke, the less the enemy dares to cross the line.

As for why Liu Jiuli received the meeting minutes shortly after the Colombian meeting ended.

All I can say is that our comrades are spread all over the world.

Britain can have the Cambridge Five, and the Community can certainly cultivate comrades in Colombia. Some people even become comrades after just one trip to the Community. These people who have betrayed their own class are deadly blades hidden behind the enemy's heart. They don't need to do anything dangerous; they just need to provide intelligence when it's safe to do so.

To everyone's surprise, those attending the meeting were all members of the community, from taking notes and passing on documents to finally organizing them. Their numbers were enough to form a branch.

And these people are all native Colombians, born into wealthy families.

That's why it's said that egoists and idealists can't understand each other. They're on two completely parallel lines that don't want to intersect. They only have biological similarities, but their thinking is from two completely different worlds. How can they understand each other?

Besides these reasons, there's also the "perfection" of other countries in Terra in their inhumanity. If these beasts weren't so monstrous, there wouldn't have been any awakened individuals within their own classes.

Some things truly don't hurt when you compare them to others.

By September 12th, the community's army had entered the final stages of the liberation. The speed of liberation across Yan was as fast as the surrender of France. This was mainly because Yan's militarism in recent years had caused enormous damage to the lower and middle classes. Not only could ordinary people not survive, but even small and medium-sized landowners were struggling to make ends meet. Rich farmers had to go to the city to work to supplement their income. This meant that the entire lower and middle classes of Yan had collectively fallen a level. As for the lowest class, there was no room for further decline, and they could not be squeezed dry at all.

The large landowners and bourgeoisie still wanted to resist, but their organized armies were unwilling. The number of soldiers they absolutely wouldn't betray them was barely five figures, and faced with the community's sweeping purge, these peasants vanished like snowflakes under the scorching sun. They could, however, engage in destruction and slaughter, much like a local militia.

Yan Kingdom is still too big, and there are always places that cannot be taken care of. However, the community resolutely carried out a comprehensive encirclement and suppression of these reactionary forces. If it is difficult to enter the deep mountains and forests, then just use a tactical nuclear bomb to take care of it. Anyway, with the people here, we can just tear down the superstructure and rebuild it. The community is not short of resources and technology. Let us show you the power of money!

Therefore, the community doesn't care how badly a city is destroyed. At worst, they can use tactical nuclear weapons to clear the area. Since they are all clean nuclear weapons, there is no need to worry about residual nuclear radiation. They can just smash it and rebuild it. It would be fine if they smashed it all, leaving a vast, clean expanse of white land, completely erasing and eliminating the traces of those monsters and demons.

Of course, some people take ordinary citizens hostage. The community has a special operations team to deal with this issue. If you dare to do that, you must be prepared for the complete annihilation of your family tree. Your whole family will be tied up and thrown to the angry people, who can do whatever they want with you.

After making an example of someone a few times, no brave person dared to do it again.

Watching the community dissect the entire Yan Kingdom like a skilled butcher, tearing it apart and devouring it whole, the other countries on the Terra continent were stunned. They had never imagined that a war of annihilation could turn out like this.

The Yan Kingdom, with its 400 million people, was defeated in just a few days. If it were us... the weak, pitiful, and helpless nations of Terra trembled in fear.

"This is the place. Let's start collecting water samples."

Qingliu and his team are collecting water samples from the great river in Yan Kingdom, accompanied by a squad of soldiers.

The community's advance was not just about liberating Yan State. As the steel tracks rolled forward, various government departments also began to take root and carry out their work in Yan State, including the environmental protection work that Qingliu and his team were responsible for.

Green mountains and clear waters are invaluable assets.

Qingliu strongly agrees with this statement.

As an Agorian born in Yan, Qingliu has no feelings for the so-called Agor. In the past, she was a Yan citizen, and now she is a Terran (don't forget the full name of the community, Terran People's Community). As for Agor, it is just the distant hometown of her parents' generation, and has nothing to do with her now.

Because the Originium industry causes serious pollution to water resources, all countries must filter the wastewater used in Originium processing multiple times before discharging industrial wastewater, at least to reduce the concentration of Originium crystals to natural standards. The Community has done the best in this regard.

Wastewater treated by the water purification plant can directly meet drinking water standards. Of course, the plant also has its own purification equipment, and the purified water, also known as reclaimed water, can be directly discharged into rivers, lakes, and seas without causing adverse effects.

Such a situation, where upstream factories discharge wastewater and downstream villages are completely wiped out, has never occurred in the community.

However, factories in Yan Kingdom are not so particular. Apart from the capital city, factories in other places can only be described as discharging pollutants at will. The two major rivers in Yan Kingdom, the Dragon River and the Great River, are severely polluted by the Originium industry. It is so serious that during the dry season every year, Originium crystal polymers with an abundance of more than 70% can be found in the riverbed. It's incredible.

In the past, the feudal court did not care about the lives of ordinary people, but it did care about the community. The dredging and reconstruction of major rivers had been put on the agenda, and all factories along the rivers were closed and demolished.

At the same time, new factories of the same type sprang up, allowing local workers to find employment and avoiding social problems caused by widespread unemployment.

Supporting infrastructure such as highways, railways, docks, ports, bridges, tunnels, and warehouses are under construction. In addition to the five million-strong army conquering cities and territories in front, the community also has at least tens of millions of production and construction corps behind them, as well as an even larger number of mobilized local people who are building roads through mountains and bridges over rivers, working during the day and educating the public at night, reshaping the entire Yan Kingdom.

According to the latest plan, the third to fourth five-year plans will basically revolve around the development and reconstruction of Yan Kingdom. If everything goes smoothly, ten years later, the entire Yan Kingdom will be completely transformed and become the most stable rear area of ​​the community.

However, with the liberation of Yan State, a weighty issue was placed before Liu Jiuli.

The capital city planning of the community.

Section 359: The New Capital

(Before I knew it, my first million-word novel on Dimension Princess was about to end. I'm quite emotional. (～￣▽￣)～)

The capital city is the heart of a country and a representative of a regime; its importance is self-evident.

This is especially true for the community, and the establishment of a capital city can even represent another layer of meaning—inclination.

Don't forget how communities are formed. This country is a whole, but it is also a whole composed of regions, and each region has its own tendencies and dominant culture.

In theory, the capital city should be decided by a vote, one person, one vote, which is fair, right?

Bullshit! With 400 million people in Yan, even a fool knows where the capital should be located. What kind of fairness is that?

Regardless of the final outcome of the discussion, everyone will definitely be dissatisfied with each other, because the capital city represents not only politics, but also huge hidden benefits. For example, the capital city enjoys the highest level of resources and has advantages over other major cities in education, construction, medical care, and transportation. It can even be said that the entire nation is supporting the capital city.

Besides these, there are other unseen benefits and advantages to look forward to in the future. In short, we cannot make such a hasty decision.

Of course, this applies to others. For Liu Jiuli, once he makes a decision, all opinions will immediately disappear.

How dare you go against the founding leader? You must be tired of living.

But precisely because of this, Liu Jiuli needs to be even more cautious.

From a personal standpoint, Liu Jiuli naturally wanted to place the capital within the territory of Yan Kingdom, where the cultural environment would give him a sense of familiarity. But what would others think?

The Community liberated Yan State, and then its founding leader went to Yan State to announce the construction of a new capital. So you've always cared about Great Yan State, and we're just dispensable tool states?

They might say they would never say that, but it's hard to guarantee they don't think it, which could easily hurt the feelings of other comrades.

They might even be used against them by those with ulterior motives. See? People from Yan Kingdom still think about Yan Kingdom.

Over the years, Liu Jiuli has become quite politically naive. He knows that some things require consideration of people's feelings. If all problems could be solved by reasoning alone, then humanity would never know what war is. Some things are understandable, but accepting them can be painful. If the pain becomes too much, it can lead to irrationality and ultimately tragedy.

Just as Liu Jiuli was having a headache, issues related to the new capital city became the top trending topic on the community's hot search list.

Everyone was enthusiastic and joined the discussion, with various forums and chat groups buzzing with excitement.

"Since it's the capital, it must be located in the holy land of revolution. Steel Grid is where the dream began, so it's good that it's not moved."

“Disagree, Ali! Steelgrad is too close to the front line. What kind of capital is located near the border? Even for the sake of future development, it should be moved inland.”

“That makes a lot of sense. I think our Gongqingcheng is pretty good.”

"Why isn't Kazdel included? As the capital of the Sarkaz, it deserves a place here!"

"Forget about cities full of feudal authoritarianism and decay. If you have to choose, you should choose from our Letania."

"The above has revealed its true intentions. As the focus of the community's future development, the Great Yan region should at least have the qualifications to be the capital."

"Oh dear, even the old men with a long history are vying for the qualification. You guys should clean up your internal problems first."

"What! Trying to discriminate based on region, you little hater?"

"I don't care! Ursus, as the pioneer of the revolution, must have its capital within its borders!"

"Protest! We want the future, but pioneers can't put food on the table."

"Just a quick question, do we in the East have a chance?"

"That's all. Give up. Goodbye."

When did Dongguo join the community?

"We haven't added it yet, but looking at the map, it's only a matter of time before we just roll over it."

Even a fool can see that Dongguo will eventually become an inseparable part of the community. If the community's target this time is Yanguo, Dongguo will also be within the kill radius. The only difference is when it will be crushed.

Even the locals in Dongguo have begun to actively learn Chinese and are preparing to join the community.

The Southern Shogunate was contacting their community thirty times a day, hoping to get a chance to surrender.

I had no choice in the past, but now I want to be a good person.

Well, the Commonwealth's armored forces have reached the Eastern border, and the airborne troops are ready. You guys should just find a comfortable way to commit suicide now.

Public opinion on the capital is divided, but the atmosphere within the community's decision-making bodies is very delicate.

Aside from Rhodes Island, a unique organization, other factions are generally divided by region.

For example, the Ursus faction, the Kazdel faction, the Letania faction, and the newly added Great Flame faction and Syracuse faction.

The most senior faction here is the Ursus faction, which was the core of the Red Guards back then. More than 80% of the veteran cadres and senior members came from this faction, and their influence and voice should not be underestimated.

Secondly, there's the Sarkaz faction, who are incredibly loyal to Liu Jiuli and extremely fanatical—those who know, know.

The Leitanian faction arrived early and had an advantage in timing. It was the last of the three major factions, but its influence was questionable. After all, one of the important reasons they joined the community was that the Leitanian Communist Party performed so poorly that the community had to take emergency action and forcibly liberate the entire Leitania.

Therefore, in terms of the influence of major factions, Letania needs to bring other factions into its fold to demonstrate its importance.

The only certainty is that, regardless of faction, everyone is absolutely convinced of Liu Jiuli's authority.

The pressure then fell on the leaders of each faction. The only one who was relatively relaxed was Amiya, because Rhodes Island was absolutely neutral on this issue. In comparison, Rhodes Island was more like a citizen of the community.

After all, the community is only a teenager, and it will take at least fifty to a century to digest these countries into regions and provinces. Therefore, the use of countries to distinguish regions is unlikely to disappear in the short term.

But none of the leaders of any faction had any intention of directly communicating with Liu Jiuli.

At times like this, the person most troubled is definitely Liu Jiuli. If you go up there and cause him more trouble, aren't you just asking for trouble? Besides, such an important matter in the capital cannot be resolved by just chatting.

What is Liu Jiuli doing?

"Isn't anyone going to give me some advice?"

Well, Liu Jiuli was still wondering why no one had come to his door.

Ling placed the freshly brewed milk tea in front of Liu Jiuli, smiled and shook her head: "Only you can make the decision on this kind of thing. If others take the initiative to ask, they will become the target of everyone's criticism."

"That's true. Hmm, the newest cantaloupe flavor tastes pretty good."

"I'm glad you like it."

Looking at the two smiling, Aurora in the office felt like a sauerkraut fish, sour and bland, and superfluous.

Logically, such matters should be decided in a meeting, but it's clear to everyone that everyone is just waiting for Liu Jiuli's decision; any other decisions are meaningless.

Standing before the map of Terra, Liu Jiuli pondered for a long time before finally saying, "We can try the mobile capital system."

A mobile capital, as the name suggests, involves setting up multiple capitals and having the government move between these cities over a period of five to ten years. The advantage of this is that it avoids the capital being located in a fixed area, which could lead to the solidification of local interest groups and even resistance to newcomers.

Those stinking outsiders have come all the way to our capital to beg for food.

It's rising, my blood pressure is soaring, I can't bring it down. Furthermore, the regions where the capital is located will form new prosperity centers, driving balanced development across all areas and preventing a situation where advanced regions become extremely advanced and backward regions remain extremely backward.

Now that we've covered the benefits, what are the costs?
