An armored train ran fast over the railroad tracks.

Mars’ train network is of course, but it originates from that of Earth.
After the reorganization of the European order under the leadership of the Russian Empire, the railroad networks were unified into one type, and the wide-area routes that run through the entire continent of Europe from London to Vladivostok were complex and sophisticated so that there was no reason to change trains anywhere. .
Similarly to the United States, the United States has completed a network of railroads and highways linking all of South America and North America. Darien Gap was not an obstacle, as the US had gone through all the work, such as clearing out the jungle for military purposes and draining the water.
Of course, Mars was also made similarly, but it used its own standard, including an extra-large wide gauge.
In retrospect, it was natural. So, what are we going to do by unifying the standard with the Earth?
Is it possible to build a Galactic Railroad by connecting the Earth and the railroad network by unifying the Earth and the standard? Even the railroad consumables are cheaper to produce on Mars than on Earth.
Therefore, the standard of the Earth and the train of Mars, which boasts this ignorant wide gauge, are of course different.
– Labyrinth, operation commences.
And the gunfire rang out.
Numerous types of gun shells, including machine guns, artillery guns of various calibers, and rockets, were ejected from the armored train.
A counterattack also flew in, but the firepower of the unmanned armored train was overwhelming. Unless it is a specialized special vehicle, long-distance movement is a reality where airplanes and railroads are the main focus, and the armored train was one of the most powerful firepower that the security forces could mobilize.
An anti-tank missile flew and hit the side of the train, but the heavy armored train was not easily derailed or destroyed.
The side of the armored train opened and walking drones popped out.
Ogas had initiated a large-scale sweeping of the remaining Liberation Front personnel.

“That’s how it happened.”
After hearing the rough story, Yelena closed her eyes.
“Shall I settle here too?”
“What?”
“Because I was young, I was promoted quickly at a young age, so it was really bad, and that was the reason I was put on a suicide mission. Even if he did come back alive, he would have intended to purge them as a cause. If he just said he was killed in the last battle and with a little help from Ogas, I wonder if he could wash his identity here and live as a young girl of marriageable age. I don’t feel like it’s worth staying any longer.”
“under……..”
“What can I do, even if I had my family, I wouldn’t feel attached to them. My family is now all buried in the grave.”
I replied with a bitter smile to her bitter words.
“Welcome to the ranks of time drifters.”
“If you have a lighthouse and a bridge, you cannot be called a drifter.”
She smiled and pulled out her phone.
“look.”
“yes?”
She swung her phone screen.
It was a picture of her taken using perspective in front of a large building.
“what’s this?”
“Romanov-Kim Palace. Kyiv new town.”
“What?”
“About a year or two after your death, it has been argued that you need something like a memorial to commemorate the victory of World War II, the unity of Europe, and so on, so this palace was built, the name is Palace. It’s a win, but it was also written by the CDP, and the UN General Assembly is now held here and there as the UN headquarters building did not pass the safety inspection and was judged to be in danger of collapsing. Its size is ignorantly large, so it can be used for many purposes.”
“…that’s it. the top over there.”
“yes?”
“Isn’t that what I was thinking?”
“At the top?”
Her smile now seemed ominous.
“Why not? Your equestrian statue.”
“……The f*ckers are real.”
Then she laughed like crazy.
“Do you know that there is only one statue? It’s smaller than the one at the top, but every time you go down one platform, there are statues there?”
Come to think of it, statues that are a little smaller, but still not small in absolute size, were hanging from the outside like gargoyles.
“Don’t say it’s all mine.”
“Originally, it was said that only the main figures of the Russian Empire were going to be established, but there was an argument that the founding members of the Joint Defense Treaty should also be included, so Olga is here, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, I am here, and… His Majesty and Alexei are here.”
dizzy. No, this is not some Soviet palace…
“Initially, Kyiv New Town itself was built around this building. Thousands of people go to work from the old town to the new town and see your equestrian statue on top of a 100-story skyscraper…”
“Who told you to do the damn things?”
“It’s already a key landmark in Kyiv, so it’s easy to give up. Besides, the Security Council that rules the whole world will be held under your feet.”
Kyiv, Moscow, St. Petersburg.
The three great axes that govern the Russian Empire.
St. Petersburg is clearly a thousand-year old city, but as I empowered Moscow for reform, it lost a lot of power and fell to ruin.
Kyiv has been transformed into a center of economy, culture, society and finance, and it is said that there is no administrative problem even if Kyiv calls itself the capital as it is, as long as there is literally only one palace built and an emperor seated in it.
It’s almost like Washington DC and New York. St. Petersburg… well… in Korea, it’s like Gyeongju.
“Come to think of it, there are a lot of stories about moving the capital after the arrival of this emperor.
“Hmm.”
So, shouldn’t the name of the empire be changed to the Ukrainian Empire instead of the Russian Empire?
– Destruction of the armored train Labyrinth, their counterattack is unexpectedly fierce, but targets at known locations will be annihilated within 24 hours. Only 4 armored trains were mobilized.
Ogas came out of nowhere, said only what he had to say, and disappeared.
“… because it’s arbitrary.”
Yelena grumbled, and I laughed quietly.

Korea, Seoul.
Famous for being full of skyscrapers, Seoul has gone through a number of events.
After the Second World War, it was completely swamped and there were few buildings in good condition, and the entire city of Seoul was engulfed in a great fire while undergoing an all-out rebellion by the Communist Party.
And this was the Seoul Complex Administrative Office, which is a symbol of Seoul.
It was also the most controversial area.
First of all, the size itself was huge and beautiful.
In the main building, major government agencies were gathered, and in front of the plaza was the presidential residence on the west side and the prime minister’s residence on the east side.
This could be seen as Korea’s Oman in the 1990s when this building was built. Korea, which had risen to the third largest economy in the world at the time, also had ambitions to surpass the US and Russia in terms of economy.
Of course, at the beginning of the 21st century, the bubble burst and collapsed in one blow, and it had to go through a period of nearly 20 years of stagnation.
The problem was the location.
The fact that it was built on the site of Gyeongbokgung Palace, which had been left unattended after being burned without a trace during the Civil War in Korea, was a controversial topic in the 21st century, although it is not known at the time.
At that time, there was a social atmosphere that dismissed all of Korea’s history, including the Joseon Dynasty, as being criticized, ineffective, and meaningless. In particular, during the Joseon Dynasty, the Joseon Dynasty surrendered to the Somali-like China and exiled to Japan, which seemed only a second-class country compared to those who questioned whether or not they were second in the world. It was strongly emphasized, and the story of the foolish and corrupt ruling class, and the grassroots who actually led the country, became a hero. It goes without saying that Lee Sun-sin and Kim Deok-ryeong, who were persecuted by the government, and Hong Gil-dong, Lim Kkeok-jeong, and Jang Gil-san, who resisted the system, received intensive attention.
There were various political reasons for this at the time, but there was no force against the building of the new government building on the site of the monstrously neglected palace of the ‘it would have been better without it’ dynasty.
However, in the 21st century, there was a public opinion demanding a reevaluation of the Joseon dynasty, and there was a public opinion that it was not unusual to push the site of Gyeongbokgung Palace and build a building there.
The problem was that it was already too late.
The mega-large building had already been completed and all major government buildings had moved in, and it was even promoted as a representative landmark of Korea.
At the very least, if it’s a little small, you can move it anywhere. How many times did you move that big and beautiful building?
In addition, it passed without any objection at the time, but the controversial issue a little later was that the Prime Minister’s Office and the President’s Office were facing the plaza in between, and that all major government buildings were located in the main building with that large dome.
It was pointed out that it was extremely vulnerable to terrorism or coup d’état, but if we disperse all the government buildings, the land price in Seoul has already risen as soon as it has risen.
Only then did the government come to face the problems of this building, and decided to close its eyes and just write it. To be honest, after spending that huge budget, I’m like, ‘Oh, I can’t use this, so why don’t you just demolish it?’ The moment the demolition budget is not the problem, the government overturned, the parliament and the cabinet were disbanded and distrusted, and then all the key figures from the previous government to the key figures of the current government were dragged out one after another. I had to go to a hearing in the building.
In the end, it was impossible to demolish it, and the restoration of Gyeongbokgung Palace was decided to restore it in the Wangsimni area rather than as it is. The literal teaspoon construction was in progress for reasons such as the tighter budget of the planned Incheon International Airport.
Even if the budget allocation was zero, what can I say?
“Is this his hometown?”
Of course, it’s not exactly here, but it’s the same country.
The woman with her hat pressed deep and wearing sunglasses gave a strange smile.
