Qin Guang did not know at that time that the Chinese History Reading Club he presided over was hailed in history as a key turning point that determined the future direction of human civilization.

The historical significance of the Chinese History Reading Club is mainly as follows.

Through deep reflection and comprehensive summary, the meeting ended the infiltration and infringement of historical nihilism on the minds of the fleet members since the Nameless Fleet set out and gradually expanded after the rupture of contact with the Imperial Headquarters.

It corrected the wrong path of only focusing on professional skills and ignoring ideological work. It

re-established the central idea of ​​spontaneous solidarity based on the history of human civilization.

It deeply supplemented and explained the freedoms of both large and small, and established the objective fact that the small freedoms of individuals must exist on the basis of the great freedoms of civilization.

Through the summary of the reading club, the core line of taking the reproduction of human civilization as the highest responsibility was redefined.

In an era of high informationization and ultra-high technology, the reading club redefined the sense of historical mission that everyone should have as a member of human civilization. It helped the fleet to pull back from the brink at a critical moment, saved civilization, and gave new life values ​​to the previous turmoil and those who died in the chaos.

No one is perfect.

As long as mistakes can be summarized in time and lessons can be learned from them, then the mistakes will have value.

After the first phase of the reading club ended, Qin Guang spent nearly two months, working almost non-stop, and worked hard to compile the reading notes of "Rising from Odd Times".

Qin Guang first deeply analyzed and explained the different psychological changes of different characters in the process of each key historical detail.

He also drew on the strengths of many others and summarized the mental journey of the Chinese nation from the general public to intellectuals and then to social resource allocators in the past two hundred years by historians, writers and social scientists of all generations.

Finally, Qin Guang completed this book called "Reading Notes", which is actually more than 2.6 million words.

In fact, before Qin Guang, countless scholars had already done similar things. The difference between Qin Guang and these predecessors lies in the following three points.

First, he is not a literati in the traditional sense. His main job is a professional soldier who climbed up from the bottom step by step. He has sophisticated tactical thinking and comprehensive strategic thinking.

Second, his personal experience is very rich. He grew up as an ordinary person in the prosperous and stable Traveler Galaxy at that time, received the traditional education of the Empire, and then experienced the chaotic War of the Traveler Galaxy. Later, he went to the front line of the Empire and participated deeply in the core area of ​​the Civilization War. Then he led the fleet away from home and traveled hundreds of millions of miles, experiencing the fleet civilization that was completely different from the civilization of the stars, and then participated in and led the ideological war within the fleet civilization. Looking at all human beings, there are very few people whose personal experience can be compared with Qin Guang, and there are not many people whose personal talents can be compared with Qin Guang. When he looks at the same thing as others, his personal characteristics will bring him a different perspective and draw a deeper conclusion.

Third, in the history of human civilization, there is no period that is not worth studying, and no period of history should be abandoned at any time. For all mankind, there is only one thing that will never be outdated, not human body cryogenic technology, nor hypersonic flight? Not even fragmentation bombs, but everything that has happened in the past, that is, the truth of history.

The same period of history, people in 2500 years will have a harvest? This harvest can play a role in the 26th century. People in 3500 years will have new harvests. Solar system humans in 4500 years will have their own summary? It is applicable to guiding the solution of solar system problems. Centaurus humans in 4500 years will be able to come up with guiding ideas for solving Centaurus problems.

No matter how much time has passed, no matter how far mankind has gone, true history will always be the most precious treasure of civilization. Past mistakes can serve as a warning to the present, and past achievements can inspire thinking. Learning from history is never outdated. Qin Guang reads history books and writes his reflections. It seems to be his personal behavior, but in fact, it is the era represented by Qin Guang, looking back at the past and reflecting on himself many years later. Qin Guang's thoughts are based on the times. His eyes are not just his own eyes, but the eyes of the times.

After Qin Guang completed the "Reflections", he did not keep it to himself, but used it as the core teaching material to expand the organizational structure of the reading club again, allowing more middle-level fleet members to participate.

Six months later, the reading club organized a two-week seminar.

At this seminar, participants had a heated discussion, used in-depth intelligence deduction, and specially applied for the assistance of the main brain of the Empire Headquarters to complete a comprehensive investigation and calculation.

In the end, Qin Guang and others decided to carry out system reforms in the fleet society.

It's time to change.

Two hundred years ago, when the fleet set out, the total population was 150 million, and the positions of the core leadership of the fleet were all appointed by the Empire.

At that time, this was an appropriate decision. Although the population of the fleet came from "all corners of the world", they were all citizens of the Empire. Everyone at that time knew that the reason why the Morrowind Empire was named the Empire was to show that mankind would break free from the shackles and conquer the universe. It implemented a true republican system. There was no emperor in the empire. Everyone was the emperor and everyone was the master.

The fleet at that time had no civilized characteristics and was essentially a fully functional army.

But unknowingly, more than a hundred years passed, and as the first generation of crew members gradually aged and withdrew from the stage of history, the original simple population composition changed. The fleet leadership continued to use the original imperial appointment method, simply letting the capable take the position, allowing the second and third generations to step forward smoothly.

This seems to be no problem, but it overlooks one point. The fleet population has expanded to more than one billion, and has been separated from other humans for too long, and has become an emerging civilized society.

The civilized system that quietly emerged in the fleet was, from the very beginning, a standard military council system.

After the pain of internal turmoil and with history as a lesson, Qin Guang and others have deeply realized the current state of the fleet. The original system has reached the end of its useful life. If they want to successfully complete the mission, they must take the initiative to make changes.

"The initial appeasement of the second and third generation members has been completed. Instructor Tong Ling's refusal to fall asleep also ensures that we have absolute military stability in the short term."

"The first thing we have to do next is to use the things summarized in the reading club as the basic platform of "Reading Notes" and the useful viewpoints you put forward as supplementary explanations to resume the theoretical knowledge education work of the concepts of history, philosophy, and pan-civilization for all people."

"The importance of building spiritual attributes must be elevated to the same level as professional capabilities. It is better to allow an individual's professional knowledge level to be slightly lower than to allow his thinking to have problems. Effective today, a guidance working group will be established to comprehensively coordinate related work. When all conditions are ripe, our ultimate goal is to change the fleet system and return to the true republic that belongs to our Nameless Fleet."

"Everyone must understand that there are Solar People, Traveler People, Long-Armed People, Steel Bone People, and Giant Source People in the Empire. Now our Nameless Fleet belongs to the human family, but at the same time has become a separate clan. I call ourselves the Nameless Generation! The only pursuit of the Nameless Generation is the expedition to victory!"

Next, the guidance group recompiled the complete history textbook.

In addition to in-depth study of "Rise from the Odds", world history and civilization history since 2049 have also become important courses.

The history of nothingness that occurred in the past nine timelines has also been fully compiled into a book, no longer kept secret, and has become a basic course in the fleet's ideological education work.

The significance of learning the history of nothingness in multiple timelines is to let the new generation of spacemen in the fleet re-recognize that the so-called right to choose life that they now have is not obtained in vain, but is based on the sacrifices of nine generations of martyrs for at least a thousand years.

In the first few timelines, humans failed to leave the solar system 2,500 years ago.

The situation of the earthlings at that time was even more desperate.

I don't have the right to choose where I want to be born, which star system I want to go to to complete my studies, which war zone I want to go to, and which enemies I want to face.

When facing the enemy, I also don't have the right to choose whether to fight or retreat.

At that time, humans were born with only one option: to fight to the death.

The ancient sage died nine times, lost his relatives and friends nine times, and used his iron will to restrain himself in nine timelines, and only then did he "steal" this new future for humans little by little, and only then did he have today.

But the war is not over yet, and humans have not been liberated.

The new generation must understand that humans today have reached the last moment, and history will not always repeat itself.

Humans must never pin their hopes on the help of unknown forces that they have never mastered.

Every attempt must be faced as the last time.

Even this time, the sage made a key comment before his death, and he thought this was the last time.

If we cannot win this battle, humans will never find peace in the universe.

Time went by in the blink of an eye and it was 2917. Qin Guang was finally very pleased to see that more than 99% of people passed the psychological state assessment conducted by the intelligent computer.

In just seven years, Qin Guang has aged a lot.

On this day, he opened the whole ship to speak again and said so.

"The task of continuing the human flame has been handed over to others.

The mission of the Nameless Generation is to reach the Silver Center in exchange for an important stage of victory.

If you escape before, our whereabouts will be immediately exposed.

You will be pursued and our mission will be in vain.

If you inherit our will and face sacrifice like others in order to create better conditions for you, then our mission will still be accomplished. I want to tell you that life cannot last

forever, but as long as our civilization can continue to exist, our memories will eventually last forever.

Our current conditions are indeed harsh and full of dangers, but someone has to take the risk so that the future of mankind can live in peace.

At first, we could refuse to be drafted and stay in our respective hometowns. But we, the 150 million People have left their homes and completely cut off contact with our families who are far away. Are we stupid? Are

we stupid?

I tell you all this.

Next, the choice can be returned to you.

From now on, the fleet will immediately reform and change the military parliament system to the fleet republic named by me!

We will not force anyone to make any decision that goes against his will.

Tell I, what is your decision? Everyone has three days to think about it, and everyone can fill in their own personal intelligence.

We have completed the repair of the free will giant ship.

Have you seen the 500 free will giant ships? You can take 500 million people.

Those who want to leave can make preparations. This time, no one will stop you. "

Three days later, an incredible miracle happened.

Now in the fleet, there are nearly 800 million people over the age of five who have the ability to think independently.

With such a huge number of people, no one decided to leave.

When seeing the statistical results, Qin Guang, who had never shed a tear despite the sacrifice of many comrades and the trauma of the internal strife, could not help but burst into tears.

The huge rock that had been weighing on his heart for decades suddenly broke.

"Along the way, we are actually growing. Our technology is advancing with each passing day. Every technological innovation in the past has made me feel that the hope of victory is greater. But there has never been a moment like this, which makes me realize so clearly that mankind will win!"

After saying this in the conversation of the entire ship, Qin Guang immediately turned off the communication.

Cough cough cough cough!

He covered his chest and coughed violently.

He is about to turn 260 years old, and he is too old. Even the real-energy medical equipment cannot stop his aging.

Since he participated in the war in the Traveler Galaxy, except for a short period of forced freezing for two or three years, he has almost never rested for a day or a second.

"General Qin, you are tired. Let us take care of the transition work. You should have a good rest."

In the Supreme Conference Room, the equally not young General Lu advised.

Qin Guang waved his hands, "Of course I have to hand it over to you. I will just serve as a mascot. But I can't rest yet, I have to watch, to feel at ease. Don't worry, the long march has come to the final stage, I will definitely be able to stand this last shift."

After saying that, Qin Guang reluctantly stood up and staggered back to his room next to the conference room to receive delayed treatment.

Another three years passed, on October 1, 2920, with the new leadership team composed mainly of the second and third generations taking office, the system reform of the fleet from top to bottom was declared a complete success. On December

12 of the same year, an army of compound eyes appeared right in front of the fleet's direction of travel in the curvature space.

They were hundreds of millions of giant worms.

The smallest worm is 307 kilometers long and 29.33 kilometers in diameter.

It is shaped like a sandworm, with a huge mouth and multiple layers of saw-like fangs.

These worms cruise in the curvature space channel like sandworms in a water pipe, sometimes fighting and devouring each other, and sometimes shifting and tumbling in groups like schools of fish.

It can swim freely in the curvature space without the protection of the curvature bubble layer.

This is a terrifying creature that humans have never seen before.

Qin Guang, who was dying on the hospital bed, sat up suddenly after hearing the news.

"We haven't fought a war for almost 20 years, and this time it's a big one. Get ready for battle!"

Qin Guang knew that the enemy was well prepared.

The fleet hid for two hundred years, but was finally able to be correctly identified by the enemy.
