It shows that some Terran scholars are not satisfied with simply mastering the rigid knowledge in the textbooks, and try to become their own things, and even create a new field belonging to the Terrans themselves.
"Very well, but not what their generation should be doing, not that I look down on them, however, the fact is that in my opinion, most of the current scholars in Terra have wasted the most precious 20 years of their lives in some Exploration in the most elementary field, if there is enough time, their exploration is very important."
Lao Xia considered the language for a while, "Now, what they need is not this kind of exploration at all, but to make up for the 20 years of study that they were in arrears in the past as much as possible, and then use the remaining time to pass this knowledge on to others. The next generation of young people."
"Frankly speaking, maybe it's a pity to say this, and it's very cold, but their age is no longer suitable for front-line researchers." It's like a group of ancient mathematicians who have spent half their lives transitioning from real numbers to imaginary numbers. field, and spent more than ten years on how to expand calculus.
If there is no pile of modern teaching materials, their behavior is not in vain, just like the first walking of a baby, toddling and slowing cannot obliterate that this is the only way for civilization to advance.
But if there are a bunch of modern textbooks, their courage and will to explore the unknown is certainly awe-inspiring, but the most precious 30 years of their lives have been completely wasted. page content.
At this time, what is most needed is not to continue to develop on this basis, because they are too old, and when they learn the last page of the textbook, they are about to completely lose the ability to think and create.
At this time, they can only choose to be a transitional person, quickly divide the labor to master the truth and teaching materials from the future, and pass this knowledge to the next generation instead of repeating every detail with the skeptical spirit of researchers try.
It is for the next generation of young people. They will not waste time on the road ahead, but on this basis, after learning the things in the textbooks, they will go back and sort out the old knowledge. Apply, and generate new doubts, and then pass this doubts and doubts to the next generation.
In other words, Lao Xia believes that the people of Terra need at least two generations of scholars as firewood to pave the way, and the third generation of talents may be accumulated to carry out exploration and research in new fields. The matter is no different from Minke.
The spirit of skepticism is a necessary quality for researchers, but compared to the knowledge system mastered by Lao Xia, they are far from meeting this basic requirement and start to doubt everything, and they have to do everything, which is very bad.
"That's it..." The doctor frowned, "But your request is too difficult, you must be a first-class scholar on Terra who can meet the minimum limit of what you think as an inheritor, and they are only used as one-time Are teachers too wasteful?"
"Then what then?" Lao Xia asked, "Then what then? With their progress, they have a solid grasp. They have made all the mistakes that every beginner should make, and they have made mistakes that should not be made. It took a huge cost and time to test the boundaries of this knowledge, and then? Then they died before they had learned what they were supposed to learn, or even passed it on to the next generation."
"Then, the next generation of scholars continued to repeat the above process, and then the people of Terra have been wandering in the 'junior and high school knowledge' I taught, at most as short as the first-year knowledge circle."
"Boundaries are for the next generation to explore, new fields are for the next generation to open up, and what they have to do is the same as what you and I have to do, to ensure that there will be a next generation!"
This is why Lao Xia is more teaching them the theoretical part, but not teaching them the practical part. The reason is here. He believes that these people are the future professors and teachers, the apostles who are responsible for spreading this knowledge. So what they need to do is to pass on this theoretical knowledge to the next generation of middle-aged people as quickly as possible.
Those people will become the next generation of professors. They will further chew on this knowledge, and then further consolidate the foundation through certain practical operations, and master a series of details and skills. At the same time, they will explore the direction and doubts of new fields, and then will These are passed on to the young people of the next generation, and only then can a complete academic cycle be formed.
Some are in charge of inheritance, some are in charge of suspicion, and some are in charge of pioneering. The torch is passed on from one generation to the next, instead of Lao Xia taking care of a generation of curious babies, and then another generation of exactly the same curious babies, doing repeated cyclical work.
"I'll talk to the college." The doctor rubbed his head. What Lao Xia said was not unreasonable. What is needed most now is people with teaching ability, not people with research ability. They need to spread this knowledge , because the pioneering work is indeed still early.
College, "Is it too early to let those new students learn this? Their foundation is still too weak." Every professor feels that this requirement is a bit too childish, and it will seriously affect their own ability. Study and seek time.
"Guys, I understand your thirst for knowledge and truth, but..." The doctor had a headache, because it really hurts to be honest, "Do you think you can create anything in your lifetime? What I mean is, for Lao Xia, have you reached the standard that you can start your own research project independently?"
These words are very hurtful. Almost every professor has a bad face. This is almost questioning their academic level and spirit of learning. However, any scholar with a little bit of academic arrogance and pursuit can hardly bear it.
But, on the other hand, the basic quality of being a scholar and a student also makes them have to admit that what the doctor said is the truth.
"Almost, if you should let it go, let it go. Every generation has its own tasks. Some things should be handed over to the next generation. Even if you have confidence, perseverance, and even that kind of luck, take a step back and say, Even if you have enough time, you should leave some unknowns to the next generation instead of giving them a known and boring world."
These words made everyone slightly moved. As the most cutting-edge scholars who used to be Terra, they know this feeling best. All the fields that can be explored when they are alive are known, while the unknown fields are hidden on the other side. No way, studying for a lifetime, going around and tinkering in a small circle, nothing makes a true scholar more anxious and troubled than this.
"Well, we will slow down the progress a little bit and bring as many young people as possible." The expressions of the professors are obviously a little decadent. People are already standing in front of the door of truth. Behind the door is an infinite unknown world, but Because of old age and frailty, unable to open the door, we can only pass on the opportunity to future generations...
"Moreover, Lao Xia is not the most powerful scholar in their civilization. He is just an ordinary college graduate. Even if he may have a better grade, he is just a person who has mastered the basic knowledge and is not qualified to explore the unknown by himself. Individuals, do you understand what this means?"
"It means that if this continues, if Terra encounters an unknown civilization, then we don't even have students who can learn their cutting-edge knowledge!"
This is something that Lao Xia didn't expect, but the doctor realized it immediately, because for the Star Alliance, Lao Xia is just an applicator and student who has mastered less than half of the known fields.
If Terra encounters such a civilization, it means that Terra does not even have the ability to gather scholars who can learn the other side's cutting-edge knowledge, and these old professors are dead, and the next generation of young people are not brought up in time, then the two The difference between civilizations is no different from the awareness of primitive people and modern people, and they don't even have the opportunity to learn.
The doctor finally understood why Lao Xia said that civilization without industrialization can only be regarded as primitive people, or even social wild animals, because you can't even learn and imitate, just like monkeys and orangutans can learn a lot from humans The simple operation of the machine can't even do the part of learning the enlightenment of modern knowledge.
Therefore, even if they live in groups and are social, and under the influence of humans, they may even shoot guns and use tools, they are still just a group of ignorant animals, and no one will care about them.
And industrialized civilization means systematic cognition of mathematics, physics and chemistry, schools, and universal education. They can at least understand the most superficial knowledge, and pass it on from generation to generation through education. One generation cannot, That's ten generations.
The speed of research and exploration of advanced civilizations is getting slower and slower, and the deeper the truth, the slower the progress. This has an opportunity to catch up later, at least to learn and imitate.
Therefore, for interstellar civilization, only industrialized races can be called civilized intelligent races, otherwise, they are just animals, even animals that can make and use tools, like chimpanzees, are just animals.
And only civilizations that have entered the information and electronic age and started to touch the starry sky are relatively equal modern civilizations, because only civilizations of this level can understand each other's society, cognition, and understanding of the universe.
"Fortunately, we still have time, it's not too late." The doctor said, "As long as we start on the road, it's never too late to start." The current Terra is barely between industrialization and information civilization. , plus some invisible bonuses brought by the technology of the ancestors, so that they can at least learn from Lao Xia, imitate, and even imitate well.
"We understand. It is true that we...take it for granted." After thinking about it for a while, they can understand what the meaning is. They thought that Lao Xia was considered the top, and they could reach the same level as long as they were faster. Height, expanding outward.
But now it seems that even if they reach or even surpass Lao Xia's level, they can only reach the bottom line of the "pioneering work" of the Star Alliance, that is, research work.
"Moreover, this is only about biology and ecological theory, as well as physics. In this regard, Lao Xia can't help you with anything. Without these supports, even your tutor himself can't complete his studies here. The most basic experimental operation learning in the next few years."
This is also the most troublesome problem for the doctor. He feels that what is needed now is a team of technical assistance experts from the Star Alliance. I only know what it is and don't know why, because it is beyond his domain.
However, his own field also needs the results of other fields as support. Now Kazdel's agricultural and biological research is completely dependent on the Star Alliance research and production equipment brought by Lao Xia, and the equipment will break, once it breaks , no one in Terra can repair it.
I don’t know how to make and install the tunneling needle that accurately locates the base pairs of genes and precisely cuts and moves the phosphorus, nitrogen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms in it, let alone the atomic-level scanning detection that comes with it. equipment.
"Sleep and sleep before reaching the Great Unification." These are Lao Xia's original words about the gene scanning equipment imitating the tree of life, "I know what the Grand Unification Equation is, and I also know part of the proof process, but this is not the same as you mastering this Level of physics knowledge, and having that ability are two different things."
Now the doctor also knows the solution of this equation, and after knowing it, he feels the same as Lao Xia. He knows the answer, but he doesn't know the process, and the extension of this process is the means to apply the final answer.
Still, perhaps Terra was... luckier than those who probably didn't know the answers from the beginning to the end of civilization?
"A collider with a diameter of at least one light-year or a little coincidence, a deflection collider with a diameter of five light-years, uses a star as a particle source, and 34 stars around it as an acceleration node, using the gravity of the star and the star orbit. The receiver and the secondary accelerator accelerate, and then go round and round until reaching ultra-high-energy particles that are infinitely close to the speed of light, and it is possible to observe deeper elementary particle phenomena such as gravitons.”
"The former is an almost impossible project, while the latter... You need at least forty generational arks just to deploy these devices, colonize the surrounding galaxies, and still maintain considerable cohesion and domination under this circumstance Use the power to do this." This is Lao Xia's answer to the doctor's question about the possibility of understanding and reverse jump engine for Terra people.
"Generally speaking, no civilization in the universe can complete this project alone within its own life cycle. All advanced civilizations that master superluminal technology step on the bones of more than one civilization to complete this project." The doctor said, " How can we think we can do something like this in just one generation?"
"So, please be sure to sacrifice some time and opportunities to spread this hard-won basic knowledge as widely as possible." For a lifetime of scholars and even for an entire civilization, this sacrifice seems insignificant.
"We understand, but is the gap really that big?"
"It's bigger than that," the doctor sighed, "Their cutting-edge research is to use the collision of high-energy graviton beams produced by two supernova explosions to simulate the singularity state when the universe was born. In other words, a research takes 200 years, If two suns are blown up, we are not even qualified to watch."
Of course, the main reason why it takes 200 years is to wait for the right sun and the right time. This is also because of the difficulty reduction state with the assistance of ancestor equipment. Ten generations of relay is a very normal thing.
So, next, the Agricultural College and even the students of other colleges who felt that they had nothing to do with them suddenly discovered that the difficulty and content of learning seemed to be in a zenith star state. Of course, the difficulty is not achieved overnight, but for those talents and learning attitudes For students who are not very good, the world is really different when they bow their heads and raise their heads.
Not only that, the difficulty of teaching in basic schools at all levels is also increasing rapidly, which is used to increase the base of learning to the next level. In this case, the common child labor in various factories and rural areas and home help are wasted The phenomenon of precious youth is very dazzling.
The "Compulsory Education Act" is the first mandatory act in the Republic of Kazdel, requiring all children and teenagers over the age of five and under the age of 15 to enter the centralized closed schools established to receive education.
For this reason, all the grassroots forces have been mobilized. For ordinary rural families, this is an order that seems unreasonable. It's not that they can't understand that their children have a good future, but they care more about the lack of a future at home. The problem of reduced income due to labor.
Sometimes, the needs of a civilization and the collective and the needs of individuals are mutually exclusive. Some people will gladly endure this kind of sacrifice as the cornerstone of the future, but not everyone can bear it—after all, "don't want the rise of a great power, just The voice of the people's dignity" has never disappeared, hasn't it?
Chapter 6 Ursus Attack
On the Sami border, the Ursas No.12 Army entered a full-speed advance state after receiving the order. It took only a few days to enter the eastern part of Sami and merge with the Eighth Army that entered before. The strength of the two armies is based on the previous war. The size and state of the country are enough to destroy a small country.
It’s just that in this Usa war, Sami actually didn’t play any role. Their meaning was to buy time for Colombia to mobilize more troops. Sami is a barrier separating Colombia and Usa. Therefore, even if the Colombians go bankrupt Will try to keep Sammy.
In particular, there is almost no natural danger between northern Colombia and southern Sami. Once an open plain becomes bordered by Ursus, Colombia will inevitably maintain a rather terrifying standing army for a long time to guard against the possibility of Ursas. southbound behavior.
The same situation applies to Longmen and Casimir. As for Letania, because of the relationship between the Kjerag Mountains, even if it borders Ursus, it has enough defense capabilities.
As for the reason why Longmen is not worried is that Ursus borders Dayan in the first place, and if they dare to go south, Dayan might dare to go west and directly cut off the retreat of the invading troops, and vice versa.
The worst is Casimir, they are the example of having to maintain a large standing army, which seriously drags down Casimir's reform and economic status, especially the long-term need to maintain a knight army to guard against Ursus Under such circumstances, it is difficult to eliminate those backward knight lords.
But the problem is that the strength of individuals and the strong army of the past are gradually being replaced by professional troops and various advanced equipment. In the previous civil war in Kazdel, the coalition of southern nobles has already shown the old-style army to countries all over the world. , no matter how elite or powerful they are, it is difficult to fight against a professional army on the battlefield.
The only good news is that the vast majority of Ursus' troops are also such old-style troops. The number of new troops is very poor. As long as they have a little bit of reason in their heads, they will not go to war on two fronts.
However, Colombia is different. As a country controlled by two major arms companies and other large enterprises, they may lack patriotism, honor, discipline, and morale, but they are not flawed in professionalism and technology—— After all, for arms dealers, not fighting is a nightmare.
It's as if everyone looks down on Yankee young soldiers, but everyone doesn't want to meet American soldiers on the battlefield, because although they are young soldiers, it doesn't mean they can't fight!
The Sami capital defense line, the first Colombian Guards Division (equivalent to an infantry division) has arrived. Compared with most of the Ursas assault divisions that still rely on trucks and animal power, their equipment is obviously much better, and they are equipped with quite Part of a light tank.
Thunder Hammer II Guards Chariot, a new type of vehicle obtained data and data improvements during the Kazdel Civil War, can carry 8 infantry and two crew members, equipped with a vehicle-mounted flamethrower, it can quickly break through the defense line, lay down close A good helper for close range guard units.
Guards are units responsible for close-range combat. In the past Terra, they were equipped with cold weapons or simple quick-casting devices to quickly break through the battlefield and approach and annihilate units in the trenches. Vanguards carried the lightest A large number of weapons pursue mobility, so as to complete the jump and occupy the bridgehead in the first time, and prepare for the subsequent deployment of troops.
In the war of the new era, the definitions of these two arms are also quietly changing. Due to the influence of the Kazdel Civil War, the former began to transform into normal mechanized infantry, while the latter transformed into professional scouts.
There is a big difference between the meaning and the literal meaning of the name of Terra’s arms. For example, the special forces are not the kind of all-round soldiers, but refer to professional technical arms. For example, engineering soldiers, firefighting troops, chemical defense troops and even art troupes are all special forces.
And the sniper unit is not the kind of long-distance sniper to kill the important target of the enemy, but refers to the long-range combat unit with long-distance weapons, but the definition of a sniper operator is now beginning to become closer to a real sniper.
There is nothing to say about auxiliary and medical treatment. The former refers to warlock troops who master non-combat spells, providing a certain degree of medical treatment, delay, and hindrance support. The latter is medical soldiers. As for heavy equipment, it has changed the least in the new era.
They were originally defined as operators who wore exoskeletons or heavy armor to provide intermediate defense and propulsion forces on the battlefield. Therefore, it seems that there is no problem in replacing the exoskeleton with a tank.
Just one guard division is just a drop in the bucket in terms of the number and scale of enemies Sami faces, and more Colombian troops are still gathering, changing gear and coming with the transport fleet. Now, Sami must rely on a Only the strength of the Colombian Guards Division and the remaining three divisions resisted the offensive pressure of the four divisions of the Ursus Pioneer Army.
The Eighth Army of Ursas consists of two vanguard armies and one standing army. In other words, although because of Samina's tiny territory, only four divisions can attack on the frontal battlefield, this means that they It can be rotated at any time, and the Sami and Colombian are dragged to death here.
On an ordinary Thursday, after rejoining the No.12 Army that came to meet from the rear, Ursus took the lead in launching an all-out attack. They crossed the mountain barrier in the east of Sami and rushed directly into the Sami Basin. Here the Sami Army troops exchanged fire.
"Woo~" A cannon harbinger couldn't bear the continuous spell blows, and fell from the sky screaming strangely, and then turned into a ball of fire that exploded on the ground. Cross the ridge under cover and direct the attack for Ursus' mortar units and warlocks.
The war mode of the new era knocked the Sami combat troops to pieces in less than an hour.For the Sami people, their influence on the war still stays in the era when the shield guards covered the attacks of the warlocks, and the city-breaking crossbow of Ursus directly jumped into the siege era, while most of the Sami sniper troops were only equipped with pulley bows and Ordinary combat crossbows are simply powerless to face this kind of battle.
This mobile town, which consisted of dozens of super large vehicles parked, fell into violent shelling immediately, and dozens of artillery precursors wantonly searched for targets for their own firepower.
Before seeing the shadow of the Ursus vanguard, a Sami regiment-level unit stationed here was almost completely defeated, and their reinforcements were also intercepted by the assault troops of the Ursus vanguard.
The bombing drone with the grenade flew over the paralyzed town structure, and threw a freezing bomb into the side commercial corridor. The shops facing the street had already been transformed into shooting ports one by one, and large crossbows were installed. Cannons, but these old-style ordnance did not play a role at all, and they were eliminated by bombing drones for nearly 2/3.
The biggest inspiration that Kazdel's civil war brought to the Ursas military was the overwhelming early drone air strikes and bombing, while Columbia took a fancy to the combat effectiveness of those manned aircraft in the later period, as well as those who committed suicide The precise attack capability of UAVs.
After all, Colombia can't use tens of thousands of infected people as simply trained warlocks to operate drones like Ursas, and even let the drones launch suicide attacks while keeping them connected in a destructive manner.
And the rough people of Ursus are not very good at sophisticated operations. This kind of simple and rough carpet bombing and saturated bombardment are even more popular with them.
It's just that compared to Kazdel's almost continuous long-term air strike, Ursus's weakness in logistics made the air strike last just over an hour and exhausted all the drones in the Legion's reserve And spell grenades, as well as energy storage for various staffs.
The Ursus vanguard troops in trucks and assault boats quickly approached the town, and the assault boats fired bound balls at the defensive barriers outside the town. , the defensive wall wrapped around the side of the mobile platform opened or collapsed.
"Ula!" Groups of assault infantry activated their jetpacks and city-breaking crossbows. The former allowed them to leap over the drop in the city block, while the latter fired high-penetrating crossbow arrows while leaping, using the rope at the end to shoot Attaches itself to the side of the city block.
At the same time, the special arrow end of the city-breaking crossbow is equipped with an origin stone blasting arrow, which can penetrate heavy shields and simple barricade bunkers, which is very useful when jumping to help town modules.
It's just that Kazdel and Columbia's counterparts have already switched to electromagnetic sprayers, sacrificing armor-piercing capabilities, but gaining stronger close-range combat capabilities. Kazdel uses dragon breath sprayers, while Columbia uses arrows. The former is more lethal, while the latter is more penetrating.
The jumping of the commando made Sami's defenders finally find a little bit of the feeling of the past. The commando is nothing more than a scimitar or a city-breaking crossbow, and Terra's jetpack has a short flying distance and low accuracy. , Falling into the gap at the junction of towns or flying over the head accounted for almost half of the battle damage.
When Sami's guards raised their traditional scimitars, jumped out of their hiding places, and pounced on the first assault soldiers, they saw those Ursus assault soldiers known for their brave advances rushing forward in unison. Spread out around, as if frightened.
Before the Sami could react from this abnormal state, a storm of crossbow arrows swept across the side corridor. The rapid-fire electromagnetic crossbow equipped on the upper part of the assault boat fired nearly 1 arrow clusters in one minute, densely packed Alloy arrows bounced and splashed in the narrow corridor.
The outdated protective gear on the Sami defenders could not withstand this kind of firepower at all. If this weapon itself was not a magic device, they would have suffered even greater losses.
The two Ursus warlocks rolled down from the operating table soaking wet. They didn't have Kazdel's wet parts device or Victoria's new technology, so they could only rely on manpower to make up for it.
