Chapter 698 The situation changes

As time goes by, the strange fleet located outside the Mars gravitational circle showed no signs of movement, so people on Earth gradually let go of their nervousness. Although a small number of people still insist that aliens will come to "visit" the earth sooner or later, most people no longer care about this matter and start to live a drunken and dream and die.

And two months later, Liu Jinpeng finally got the notification from Yiti that Lin Lin was back!

After Lin Lin came out of the World Tree, her body obviously became taller. She used to reach Liu Jinpeng's chest, but now she can reach her chin. Moreover, Lin Lin's appearance also looks a little more mature. Her personality is still a bit introverted. When she saw Liu Jinpeng, she crawled into her arms and didn't speak.

"You seem to have grown bigger?" Liu Jinpeng had nothing to say, gently touching Lin Lin's two-foot long hair, and it seemed to be silky and soft.

"Well," Lin Lin was still concise and looked up at the man, with love in his eyes, "It will take a long time for the child to land. It's a girl, don't you mind?"

"Can the Yilan people still have a boy?" Liu Jinpeng quipped with a playful attitude.

Lin Lin looked at him angrily: "Only girls, so, do you mind?"

Liu Jinpeng hugged her tightly: "I haven't lied to you, I really like girls."

The two hugged each other speechlessly for a while, and the branches and leaves of the World Tree rustled in the wind. Lin Lin looked up and said, "Did the plan have been delayed for a long time? It's all because of me, I'm sorry."

Liu Jinpeng was not in a hurry and comforted him: "Not yet, the Nuwa will take a month to complete, and you can be more majestic at that time. Although the shipyard tries to hide in the side that the earth cannot see on the back of Mars, it is not good if it takes too long. Once the Nuwa is completed, you have to set off."

“How is the situation on Earth?”

“Not very good.”

In fact, the United States discussed the harmony with the Han Empire on the surface, one by one, but secretly these Americans also made a lot of preparations. Teddy Locke felt some abnormal changes, such as the strengthening of the United States' arms sales to India, and the strengthening of the United States' economic and military aid to South Africa, all of which were to suppress the power of the empire in Southeast Asia and Southwest Africa.

Teddy Locke didn't want to provide this information, but Liu Jinpeng had already obtained some information from Kent, so Teddy Locke had to express it. In fact, even if he didn't say anything, Liu Jinpeng could know that Yidi collected dozens of tons of intelligence every day, but she was not a good meal.

The Empire is currently working to promote nuclear fusion and power grid transformation at home, but the stubborn vested interests in the past still need to separate and disintegrate and eliminate them in a circle, and the response to external factors is not so timely. The Empire has placed great confidence in Africa's food plan, and the grain industry group is progressing well in Tanzania and Angola. Seeing these two countries, African countries can get rid of the food crisis.

But soon some people couldn't see it. The United States secretly instigated South Africa to help Namibia launch a small-scale attack on Angola under the pretext of border demarcation and captured a small area. South Africa was not satisfied after taking advantage, and wanted to continue to attack and occupy Angola's oil-producing areas. Angola had to fight back, and the three countries immediately formed a group of battles. The battle situation became more and more intense, and there was a tendency to develop into a full-scale war.

South Africa is a military power in southern Africa. Without foreign aid, Angola will not support it for long. Soon Zambia and Tanzania have to send troops to support Namibia. Because they both need its oil, South Africa's intention is obviously to occupy Angola's oil output.

Since last year, South Africa has begun to have an intention to get involved in Angola's oil and has criticized the three countries' oil pipelines of Angola-Zambia-Tanzania. It has strongly demanded the construction of an oil pipeline from Angola to South Africa. To some extent, this is to dig the corners of the Han Empire, and the relationship between the two countries has gradually deteriorated.

Although Namibia has become independent from South Africa, its country's military defense is basically still under the responsibility of South Africa, so it can only follow South Africa's instructions, which is pitiful enough.

South Africa's appetite grew bigger and bigger with the support of the United States, and even shamelessly sent an note to Angola to ask it to close the oil pipeline leading to Tanzania, where most of the oil volume of this pipeline would enter the empire's pocket. South Africa of course looked at it with jealousy.

In addition to the fact that the war in Africa is in full swing, India is not willing to be lonely now and has begun to try to launch a small-scale attack on Pakistan to test the reaction of the Han Empire. The imperial freighters in the Indian Ocean are often randomly inspected by the Third Brother's warships. Obviously it was intentional.

Of course, it's not just bad things.

Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia sent diplomatic envoys respectively for various reasons, including Afghanistan as the second head of the government, while Saudi Arabia was the Prince Ben Khalid whom Liu Jinpeng had met.

Afghanistan's request is very simple. He asked the Han Empire to help Afghanistan establish a water supply pipeline, from Karachi or Guadal in Pakistan to Afghanistan. This purified water pipeline can greatly alleviate drought and famine in Afghanistan. As a reward, Afghanistan is willing to use blue yuan as its settlement currency, which means giving up its previous US dollar and turning to the blue yuan camp.

Saudi Arabia itself is an oil-producing country and has always been one of the empire's diversified oil import channels. At present, they hope to introduce nuclear fusion furnaces, even if they do not own absolute shares. They hope to use super cheap electricity prices to carry out modern industrial transformation and preserve their glory and wealth in the post-oil era.

Saudi Arabia is an extremely special country in the Middle East. It has been a hardcore ally of the United States before, but the Americans obviously did not expect this action. They were shocked and used a foolish move. Strictly condemning Saudi Arabia's behavior was a betrayal. As a result, Saudi Arabia and the Arab League jointly issued a statement to counter condemn the United States' interference in other countries' internal affairs.

Originally, Afghanistan was the only barrier between the empire and Persian connections, but now Afghanistan has also gone to the empire. The United States suddenly felt disappointed. This time it did not condemn Afghanistan's betrayal. It probably knew that it had no prestige there.

The empire was under great pressure, but it was not completely unrealized. At least the joint negotiations of the Southeast Asian Association have made considerable progress. There are many Middle and Southeast Asian countries in the East-wide countries, Myanmar, Annan, Thailand, Luzon and Java are all representatives. They jointly demanded that the economic and trade exchanges in the East-wide economic circle be further strengthened and an agreement was reached on the issue of the first building fusion furnace.

Thailand will become the first country among Southeast Asian countries to build a fusion furnace. The power allocation of the Southeast Asian Association will form a special department to allocate in the future, rather than being handled by each country alone, which means that the integration of Southeast Asian regions has taken another big step forward.

At the same time, the empire's tentacles began to extend to South America. Brazil and Argentina, two South American powers, put aside their past grudges and began to coordinate the issue of how to distribute electricity if a nuclear fusion furnace could be established in Brazil. Venezuela, Paraguay, Colombia, Bolivia and other countries also expressed their willingness to join this coordination organization and eventually distribute it with the South American Alliance as the core.

When Central America and other countries saw this kind of good thing, they wanted to get a share of it, but the United States finally couldn't help it. It was burning fire in its backyard. Finally, Mexico came forward to appease China and the United States, but Panama still secretly met Venezuela.

Having said so much, are Europe and Russia just watching?

Obviously not. Russia discovered the trend of the empire's oil imports being frustrated. When nuclear fusion had not completely replaced oil, the empire's oil imports were still indispensable materials. At this time, Russia immediately sent officials to Pingjing to negotiate, willing to provide the empire with oil and natural gas products that were enough to fill the gap, but hoped that the empire could support Russia in reclaiming or partially recovering its territory during the World War.

To put it bluntly, the Mao Bear wanted the Han Empire to spit out some bones, otherwise it would not be able to take out oil in vain.

The Europeans were smarter in their abacus. Their representative intention was that Europe was willing to join the ranks of abandoned nuclear power and the power currency price regulation circle led by the Han Empire, but the degree of openness of nuclear fusion must be higher. These "gentlemen" hoped to take the chicken that laid the golden eggs home directly from the empire, but they only paid some verbal promises.

The imperial government struggled to deal with it, but it was not as difficult as it could not cope with it. Li Jingwen said to Liu Jinpeng: "Don't look at Lao Shen frowned all day long, but he was actually happy."

It must be something that the father-in-law called to find his son-in-law, but it was a roundabout way: "Your secret tricks should be released, let me see how powerful your plan is."

Liu Jinpeng knew it, but he was confused: "I have any secret tricks, I am just an ordinary businessman."

Li Jingwen annoyed him: "You are still an ordinary businessman. If you were an ordinary businessman like this, our country would have rushed out of the solar system long ago!"

Liu Jinpeng giggled: "It's not time yet, don't be anxious. You're so angry that you're going to be so angry. Xiwen has to turn against me."

Li Jingwen had no choice but to this lazy guy. He sighed and said, "You can do it. We are all old, and it will be your era in the future."

Liu Jinpeng smiled and said, "This is too early. It's no problem for you to do it for another hundred years."

Li Jingwen was excited: "What does it mean?"

"I can't say it now," Liu Jinpeng originally wanted to keep it insincere, but he couldn't resist his contempt. "Okay, it's actually just promoting gene enhancement. In the future, the average life expectancy will be at least 140 years. How can you do it for another ten years?"

Li Jingwen was delighted by the message for a while and then woke up: "Good boy, one trap after another, you can do it."

"Give it too much," Liu Jinpeng knew that this matter would definitely not be hidden, so he simply admitted it. "The increase in life expectancy will lead to many social problems. I think the interstellar government must encourage childbirth and can no longer make any plans."

"You need to say this," Li Jingwen has already started to think about it. "How long will your plan take? If it's fast, you have to build momentum now."

"Soon, at most three or five months, I think I can build momentum now."
