Chapter 510: The Era of the Red Dragon Association
Chen Lin was still quite shocked when he learned from the information flow on the intranet that the delegation had "bought" more than 100 million square kilometers of land.
"The other side even sells its own territory!?"
He pointed at the information on the intranet with a look of disbelief on his face, "Is this still the same White Eagle Association? It feels so strange to me."
Professor Yu also put down his documents and came over. He put on his glasses and looked at the report on the computer for a while, then he said with a smile: "As expected."
Chen Lin blinked: "The association has made a guess about this?"
"What you just said, the current White Eagle Association is no longer the original White Eagle Association. Their maritime hegemony was destroyed by us in one wave, which triggered a civil war that lasted for half a year. We mediated once in the middle. At that time, the two forces sold their land at a low price for some so-called high-tech weapons. Now the entire White Eagle Association is in ruins. What's so strange about selling their territory?"
Professor Yu said calmly, "I wonder what happened to those guys who fled to the White Eagle Association."
Chen Lin instantly knew who Professor Yu was talking about. In the second year after the portal was opened, a senior scientific researcher defected from the Hongshan Base and went to the White Eagle Association with some information, all for the sake of wealth and glory.
It's a pity that most of the things they brought over were theories, and materials and the like were firmly controlled by the Red Dragon Association. Although it had some slight impact on the Red Dragon Association, it was far from causing any serious damage to it.
"Either live or die."
Chen Lin had an indifferent expression on his face: "I guess when these people betrayed the Red Dragon Association and joined the White Eagle Association, they never thought about what would happen today."
"Haha, that's true. Who would have thought that the White Eagle Association, the former number one overlord on Earth, would fall apart in such a short period of time, just like the Big Cat Association back then. Their president suddenly announced its dissolution in a short period of time, and then the building collapsed."
Professor Yu suddenly sighed with emotion, while Chen Lin controlled the mouse and clicked on several pages in succession, which displayed the specific information about the land under negotiation - Alaska.
Its total area exceeds 170 million square kilometers, making it the largest state in the White Eagle Association.
This unique state was sold cheaply by the Grizzlies Association to the White Eagle Association. The initial transaction price was less than 800 million. After joining the White Eagle Association, the White Eagle Association became one of the largest states on the planet.
This vast state has diverse natural resources and ecosystems, including polar bears, grizzly bears, American bison, reindeer, wolves, ferrets, seals, sea lions, sea otters, whales, seabirds, etc. A large number of wild animals have habitats in this state.
The state also has numerous rivers, lakes and glaciers. The entire state has the largest freshwater resource reserves in the White Eagle Association, which was somewhat beyond Chen Lin's expectations.
At the same time, data shows that Alaska has extremely rich fishery resources, and its coastal areas are important fishing bases. It has abundant marine resources such as salmon, cod, and salmon, and makes a lot of money every year by fishing at sea.
The following are all introduced to fossil resources. Due to its special geographical location, a large amount of oil and natural gas in the area have not been mined in a timely manner. In addition, the White Eagle Association’s original resource protection measures within its own territory have resulted in huge reserves of fossil resources in Alaska, but not much has been mined.
This made Chen Lin very satisfied. After all, it was like buying a game account from someone else. The existing game resources themselves were a kind of invisible wealth, which was a huge plus for the value of the account itself.
Because of its vastness and unique geographical location, this land has multiple ecosystems on it at the same time - Arctic ecosystems, temperate ecosystems and alpine ecosystems. The tundra area on the Arctic side is covered with low vegetation, such as lichens, mosses and low shrubs; the temperate rainforest has dense trees, including conifers and broad-leaved trees; the area has alpine meadows and sparse vegetation...
This is indeed a complementary function for the Red Dragon Association at this time.
After all, although the Grizzly Bear Association gave a large area of cold and frozen areas such as the distant Siberia to the Red Dragon Association, these areas are not much different from the Red Dragon Association's northern environment. The only difference is that the temperature is a little lower. They have never encountered the real Arctic ecosystem.
“It’s basically a done deal.”
Professor Yu had finished his work at this time. He handed the things to the assistant who had been waiting for a long time and walked over. "Our delegation is negotiating directly with General Olga. Olga now controls the main forces of the New Dega Alliance. It is only a matter of time to eliminate those people in the executive committee."
Chen Lin happened to see General Olga telling the Red Dragon Association that they would clean up the remnants of the Executive Committee. He looked up at Professor Yu and asked, "Olga launched the attack so soon?"
“I was forced to do it.”
Professor Yu sat on a chair nearby and lifted up his trouser leg. His leg, which had been injured by the explosion in the failed experiment, seemed to have completely healed, but a closer look revealed that it was wrapped with some transparent silk threads.
While massaging his legs and feet, Old Yu said to Chen Lin, "You don't know the situation. After Olga led the soldiers of the New German Alliance to capture White City, the people in the Executive Committee immediately wanted to jump out and reap the benefits. They were worried that Olga would become more powerful than the master, and then she would lead the soldiers to wear the so-called yellow robe..."
Chen Lin was immediately amused. He leaned back in his chair and asked, "Haven't these people read our history books? How can they be so anxious to strip someone of his military power? Isn't this the same as forcing him to rebel?"
“That’s why I say they are stupid.”
Professor Yu rolled up his trouser legs with a smile, stood up and took two tentative steps, saying with satisfaction: "Olga has just won the battle and is at the peak of her popularity. This group of people can't hold back any more and have come out one after another to ask Olga to give up the command of the army."
"Many of the people on the executive committee are members of the two states of Dega. They were not well-received before. After the establishment of the new alliance, they were actually used to use their resources. Now that they have taken the initiative to jump out, it is not Olga's fault."
"The Executive Committee was indeed a bit stupid. At the beginning, they sent their guards with guns to "invite" General Olga to negotiate. To put it bluntly, they wanted to deprive her of her military power. In the end, Olga didn't fall for it. She directly ordered her adjutant to disarm all the guards and locked them up. The Executive Committee didn't dare to say a word."
Chen Lin was surprised to hear this, as he couldn't even see these things on the intranet. Only people like Professor Yu who had daily access to the affairs of the delegation knew a lot about them.
"What kind of person is Olga?"
Chen Lin suddenly asked this. Yu Linyu thought for a moment and said, "It's complicated to describe. He is a native of Texas. At the beginning, when the White Eagle Association was in turmoil because of the election of the president, he jumped out to maintain the stability of an area. Later, he was promoted to the head of the security team by the White Eagle Association state government at that time. He usually stands on the side of the White Eagle Association at any time." "But after the civil war broke out, the White Eagle Association was divided into many areas. The White Eagle Association only had the land and air combined forces. The news of the demise of the navy may have had the greatest impact on him. In the end, he chose to lead the entire security team to swear to fight for the New Dejia Alliance... The reason why the New Dejia Alliance was able to defeat the land and air combined forces so unstoppable was due to Olga's contribution."
"So, he is still a talent?"
Professor Yu nodded slightly: "Judging from the way he led troops in battle, he is indeed a talented person."
"Olga's most outstanding performance was actually in the various raids. Most of the air forces of the joint army were destroyed on the ground or even before they took off. The combat effectiveness of the army was also not very good. In addition, Olga used various propaganda and psychological warfare. A large number of the White Eagle Association and the army defected to the new German alliance. The number of people on one side became fewer and fewer, while the number of people on the other side became more and more. With the increase of one side and the decrease of the other, it was only a matter of time before White City was captured."
Professor Yu looked at Chen Lin who seemed to be thinking about something, and smiled and said, "People like Olga are heroes who emerged from troubled times. There are many typical examples of this in any dynasty in ancient times. Whether this hero can sit on the throne in the future depends on his own ability."
"But this guy is obviously very smart. He did not express a clear attitude towards our intervention at the beginning. Later, when the ceasefire notice was issued, he was the first to respond. He did not say any nonsense like the other people in the executive committee and the coalition army."
"Plus, he's planning to use the entire Alaska in exchange for our overall assistance to them. Sometimes I really think this guy is quite smart, higher than the average person in the White Eagle Association."
Chen Lin nodded slightly. Professor Yu's high evaluation of Olga was actually quite objective. After all, the White Eagle Association was once a hegemon. The collapse of such a huge empire would take some time. Some people were running for their lives, while others were saving people. All of this was possible.
"By the way, I heard that the delegation was attacked?"
Professor Yu nodded after hearing this and said, "There was a sniper attack at the hotel where we stayed that night, but because our people were equipped with protective gear, there were no casualties."
"It's quite funny to say that these people are still using the original weapons and equipment to attack. Don't they know our current level of protection?"
Chen Lin sneered and said, "Where are the electromagnetic weapons we gave them before? If they bring them, they might be able to succeed..."
"Electromagnetic weapons are too big a target, and the kinetic energy fluctuations are too large when electromagnetic weapons are activated. Our personnel on the scene can easily sense it, so it is not wrong to not use electromagnetic weapons."
Professor Yu explained with a smile: "But using conventional sniper rifles to attack, I guess they just underestimated the protective capabilities of ordinary people like us."
"Have you found out which faction the captured person belongs to?"
"This is actually not very important, but we speculate that the guy should belong to the New Dejia Alliance..."
"Shouldn't it be from the combined land and air forces?"
Chen Lin frowned slightly and said, "I feel that the coalition forces are more likely."
"The identity must be the New Dejia Alliance, but in fact it was assigned by the remaining guys of the land and air combined forces."
Professor Yu explained to Chen Lin with a smile, and Chen Lin immediately understood what was going on.
"That's how feelings are... they're just trying to frame someone after all this time."
Professor Yu nodded and said with a smile, "That's right. Those people from the coalition army used to work for the president. It's not enough to say that they are members of the executive committee of the Dejia New Alliance. Many of them are not good at fighting or direct confrontations. They are only good at muddying the water. It's almost the same to say that they are troublemakers."
Chen Lin burst into laughter, and after a while he said, "These guys should really be eliminated by the times."
"Not really."
Professor Yu smiled and said, "When we develop other star systems in the future, we can let these people stir up trouble in those star systems. It might be beneficial to us."
"Wait... I remember that Ellie once had a special interstellar colonization research project at Base No. 6, right?"
Professor Yu thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "It seems so. Do you mean there are more detailed scientific research projects about the colony?"
"That's right!"
Chen Lin remembered it very clearly. "It contains content specifically about colonies, and part of it is a training program. The focus is on the talents we just talked about. They will receive more professional training to complete the special tasks assigned by the mother planet, such as maintaining stability and replacement."
"It's quite interesting to hear you say that. We can separate this project and set up an international department to recruit elite talents from all over the world. What's the point of messing around on our home planet? The real skill is to mess around on other planets!"
"Hahaha, what a great idea!"
Both of them burst into laughter at this time. What they said today was half true and half false. Chen Lin did think so, and his idea also made Professor Yu think about it seriously. In the future, he really took the lead in setting up a diplomatic department for the exploration of the interstellar universe.
The main working method of this department is obviously similar to the previous operations of the White Eagle Association. Many people are still working hard in it, bringing a lot of practical benefits to the Earth Alliance. Of course, this is all a story for later.
The delegation's affairs at the White Eagle Association had not yet been finalized, but at this time the news had already spread to the Red Dragon Association, which was already in an uproar.
This is the first time that we have acquired territory from the White Eagle Association, and the key is that it is millions of square kilometers at one time!
This truly demonstrated the power of the Red Dragon Association. Countless people cried with excitement, feeling that the era of the Red Dragon Association has finally arrived!
