Chapter 465: Knights of the Sorrowful Country

Every time these Knights of the Sorrowful Order appear, they are dressed as "Captain America".

In this plane, the comic image of "Captain America" was designed by the Germans, and it was also pirated by the undisciplined time-traveler Lin Han's family to pirate the Marvel Comics of later generations, and it is very popular among young Americans (the detailed plot has been mentioned earlier, so I won't say more).

At Linhan's orders, they sat in groups of three on fourteen black tricycles, and then gathered in front of these leftist newspapers.

This was the first time that the "Knights of the Sorrowful Country" had appeared in front of the public, and once they appeared, their unique outfit shocked the surrounding people.

Then, the young men with baseball bats jumped off their motorcycles, lined up in front of the newspaper office, and shouted the slogans they had prepared to the crowd of onlookers.

"We are the Knights of the Sorrowful Country!"

"In the United States of America, there is a great war going on - a war with the evil gods! All those who oppose the country and this war with the evil gods are our enemies! We will do whatever it takes to destroy them! ”

After shouting these slogans, the young men of the Knights of the Patriotic Order, who were more than 40 people, armed with baseball bats in their left hands and the captain's iconic shield in their right hands, rushed into the newspaper office, smashed the entire newspaper office, and after driving the people in the newspaper office out of the newspaper office, they even set a fire inside.

On 14 June, in Washington, the capital of the United States, a total of three leftist newspapers were smashed by members of the "Knights of the Patriotic Order," and then these members of the "Patriotic Knights" were quickly arrested by the police who rushed from nearby.

According to Linhan's orders, in the process of smashing the newspaper office, these people of the Knights of the Patriotic Orders only chased people away instead of beating them, and the whole process of the operation, although it was extremely violent in the destruction of public property. He was still very "polite" to the people at the newspaper, and when the police arrived at the scene, they were also very cooperative in letting them put on handcuffs.

The "Knights of the Sorrowful Nation" operation on 14 June was completely planned by Lin Han.

In the instructions given to their leaders, Lin Han told the other party: must not hurt the innocent, must be in front of the public. Behave like a "very rational", "gentlemanly", very "pathetic" "patriotic group" who is willing to "do dirty work" for the country, and never do anything to hurt the innocent.

During his interrogation at the police station and in an interview with the media afterwards, Hathaway, the leader of the Knights of the Troubled Country, told reporters:

"We knew in advance that we were committing a crime, but it was an "evil" that we had to do. ”

The reporter asked, "What must be done evil?" ”

"America is dangerous right now! The country is full of enemies with bad intentions, and the country is full of all kinds of malicious foreign spies, not only Japanese spies, but also British spies. German spies, Soviet spies, Chinese spies. This hateful foreign spy skillfully exploits loopholes in the law and shouts the slogan of freedom of speech, but he does the evil thing of undermining the unity of the United States and secretly dragging the United States back! But the law protects such bastards, and our government is locked hand and foot in a bunch of "politically correct" shackles. There is simply no way to deal effectively with these malicious traitors and foreign spies. ”

"The United States of America is a big tree! He needs sunshine, rain and dew. Roots deep in the dark rancid dirt are also needed! He needs someone who will volunteer to do the dirty work for the health of this big tree! But now in the United States, there are too many people with moral cleanliness, and there are too few people who are willing to become roots and do this kind of dirty work! ”

"What President Dewey is doing is a great cause! He bore countless infamy for the future of the United States of America. The president can no longer be left alone. Carrying such a heavy burden alone! Therefore, we stand up at this time and establish the Knights of the Sorrowful Country, just to do the dirty work for the roots of the big tree of the United States of America! ”

After taking off the blindfold, a member of the Knights of the Sorrowful Country appeared in front of the readers of the newspaper. It was all handsome young men, very photogenic, and they immediately won the favor of the public. And out of the need for their own political interests, when the reporter took pictures of these young people, the official specially gave them a good make-up in advance, and the photos were also selected.

No matter what era it is, having a "good face" can always take a great advantage.

Taking advantage of this incident, the Knights of the Sorrowful Country "became famous in World War I" in the United States, which greatly awakened the "patriotic enthusiasm" of Americans. This kind of open support for the government's actions was naturally supported by the Dewey administration, which was under tremendous political pressure after the "Whip of God" operation.

After Operation God's Whip, President Dewey was under tremendous political pressure both at home and abroad.

Needless to say, foreign accusations are made, but the domestic leftist forces have united in accusing him of being fascist, a great dictator, and a saboteur of the American tradition of "freedom."

1944 was an election year in the United States, and at this critical juncture, President Dewey and his aides were very worried about affecting his future elections.

However, the appearance of the Knights of the Sorrowful Country, especially what its leader said to the news media, did Dewey a great favor, and not only washed all his past "politically incorrect" behaviors, but also put on a "sacred" halo.

The previous president's unconstitutionality and undermining the "freedom" of the United States now have the best line of washing: this is an evil that is necessary in extraordinary times, and the president is doing the dirty work and doing the necessary thing for the United States of America at the cost of his own political life.

In the aftermath, Republican-controlled newspapers used this reason to defend President Dewey. In the subsequent polls, President Dewey was pleased to learn that his popularity, which had plummeted in the United States because of Operation God's Whip, had greatly improved after the Knights of the Sorrowful Nation issued a defense of him.

Afterwards, aides analyzed the reason for this phenomenon and believed that it came from the "desire" of the American people, because "the United States needs a strong iron-fisted president."

After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the United States of America reaped nothing but humiliation in the international community.

Not only was he humiliated by the Japanese during the war, but he was also humiliated internationally by the British and Germans in various ways. In the hearts of every American citizen, there is a strong resentment.

An aide said to President Dewey: "The people all think so: Only an iron-fisted president who dares to act can help us get out of the predicament in front of us!" ”

Realizing this, the top officials in the White House were overjoyed, and they encouraged the president to continue to "steadfastly" on the road of "iron fist".

"A daring man. A brave and fearless American cowboy who is not afraid of being stained with mud on his body, who is willing to bear all the stigma and infamy, and dares to declare war on the evil gods! This is the spirit of America! It is also the image you should build up in front of the people before the election! You can be imperfect, and you can even be unconstitutional. But it must be a hero who dares to act and take responsibility, and the people will like such a president! ”

The Dewey government, having figured it out, soon responded to the Knights' supportive behavior.

Newspapers controlled by the state of the United States blatantly put such headlines on the front pages.

"Roots in the Darkness - Patriots of Sorrow, Knights of the Sorrowful Country."

The official attitude is clear at a glance. After a symbolic few days, the Knights were soon released, and then secretly supported by the authorities.

Meanwhile. At the behest of the Republican Party, someone stood up and shouted "Praise" to Sang:

"The real hero is not an actor who stands on the stage shouting tall slogans and saying absolutely politically correct words, but is willing to stand up and walk in a filthy dung pit, with the smell of rot on his body. People who endure the saliva and insults of others, but unswervingly move towards their goals! ”

In fact, this is already a very blatant attempt to wash the ground for the religious persecution in front of President Dewey. Overnight. The former "tyrant" John Dewey was baptized as a "saint" like "Prometheus who stole fire", and the number of admirers who supported the people, especially among the youth, increased greatly.

While still in prison at the police station, these Knights of the Patriotic Order received countless letters from all over the country from the day they were released from the police station. The entrance was crowded with admirers who came from the ground, and they were greeted like "heroes".

What no one expected was that the main members of the Knights of the Worried Country, which had made a fuss in the media, announced the dissolution of the organization after the trouble. Then they joined the army en masse, and this behavior was highly praised by the US officials.

It's just that the American people will never know that these young people of the Knights of the Worried Country are participating in the Army that will not be sent to the Pacific Theater, and although their leaders have joined the Navy, the official has only arranged him in the logistics department and paid tribute to him as a vase of propaganda.

The Americans didn't know that the disbandment of the Knights of the Sorrowful Country was entirely out of Lin Han's opinion, and he just wanted to set an example in the United States.

"America needs people who volunteer to do the dirty work for him!"

"Roots in the Darkness - Pathetic Patriots, Knights of the Sorrowful Country!"

Lin Han needed not the Knights themselves, but the opportunity to openly advocate these criminal acts in the name of patriotism in the newspapers.

Later, the U.S. government hyped up and praised this behavior for its own interests, and took the initiative to help Lin Han complete the next most important step.

The emergence of the Knights of the Sorrowful Nation helped President Dewey to successfully "wash the floor" beautifully, which can greatly enhance the national cohesion of the United States in the short term, but the negative impact is that it has caused the division of ethnic groups in the United States. The trick played by the Dewey government under the inducement of Lin Han could only deceive the ordinary people, but there were still a large number of "discerning people" who saw through the tricks and shouted in the newspapers to expose all this.

But so what?

People are sometimes stupid, "roots in the dark, pathetic patriots who do dirty work for the country", this identity is really "too cool". For American youth in the second secondary school, it has great appeal and temptation.

After July, all over the United States, various "patriotic organizations" such as the "Knights of the Sorrowful Country" continued to be born, and their names were varied, such as the Whip of God, the Scavenger, the Guardian, the Dark Knight, and so on. They are all imitators of the "Knights of the Sorrowful Country", clamoring to "do the dirty work" for the United States of America and be "roots in the darkness".

Among them, the most famous organization is the Ku Klux Klan Party, which is enough to be the grandfather of the Knights of the Worried Country, and after the appearance of the Knights of the Worried Country, its leader "had an idea" and jumped out under the banner of "doing dirty work for the United States" and performed in a big way. There are several members of the Knights of the Sorrowful Country, who are also members of the Ku Klux Klan, and it is even easier to get rid of his skin.

These various organizations, and the composition of their members are also diverse: "red necks", ruffians and hooligans, and the remnants of Catholicism and Protestantism happen to be those people that Lin Han did not want in the past.

And these spontaneously formed "patriotic organizations" have the tacit approval of the US government behind them, and there is no shortage of sources of funds for their activities.

The U.S. military-industrial complex needs someone to continue to support the war so that it can make more huge profits.

The Dewey administration needed these people to pull votes among the young people and add cannon fodder for the war.

The losers of Catholicism in Europe, and the Christian fanatics who stubbornly believe that foreign envoys are "hereticals," also need these people to do what they want.

In addition, racists, especially wealthy white racists, are willing to pay for these organizations to do some "private work" for them.

The CIA and the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the United States have been infamous for doing too much dirty work for the government over the years, and they are also happy to have "five cents of their own dry food" from the people to do the dirty work for them.

The most important thing is that the United States is in a war environment, and the Dewey government needs support, and they do not even have the strength to disband and ban these organizations, because these organizations are the most important supporters of the United States to continue the war, and it is impossible for him to come forward to attack them, because this will only hurt the hearts of "his own people". And this is the most insidious part of Lin Han's plan.

Lin Han knows very well that genuine products, because of "good materials" and "good craftsmanship", have self-limits, but "pirated" imitators have no discipline and no lower limit, and they will do anything dirty and disgusting.

After Lin Han opened the door to hell, the government secretly acquiesced in support, the consortium chaebol paid money, and the CIA provided intelligence help and "mentors", all kinds of bulls and horses, under the banner of patriotism, continued to emerge like mushrooms after the rain in the United States, the only problem is that most of these mushrooms are poisonous, and the US government swallowed these poisonous mushrooms in one gulp.

The most terrible thing about the mass movement is that it gets out of control, that it is used by people with ulterior motives to lead it astray, and this is almost inevitable. (To be continued......)
