Chapter 190: If it's not Nanlian, die!
Blue Star, Non-Southern Union, Capitol.
A cabinet-level meeting, nominally for domestic security, is being held in a small oval room.
In the retro-decorated room, there are more than 20 people sitting in the front, basically all of them are ministers of various departments who stand at the apex of power in the non-Southern Union.
It can be said that as long as whoever puts them in one pot now, the entire non-Yugoslav Union will fall into a leaderless situation in a short period of time.
The expressions of the participants varied, some with a few hints of thought, some with joy, and a few with slightly uneasy and solemn expressions.
In such an atmosphere, the door to the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and a black man they knew and feared at the same time walked in with a young white man.
"Mr. President......"
In the conference room, all the ministers present stood up one after another, and greeted the person in charge of the meeting, their supreme leader, the president of the non-Yugoslav Union, with a humble attitude.
"Alright, sit down, now let's start the meeting!"
President Hamman motioned for the white man next to him to sit aside, then stood at the top, clasped his hands, and looked at the crowd with sharp eyes: "We are calling everyone today, ostensibly to discuss issues related to domestic security, but in fact, everyone must know why we are here." β
Hearing this, the eyes of the ministers of various departments moved slightly, and they really knew the purpose of the gathering of senior officials of the non-Southern Union today.
If the former henchmen of the non-Southern Union were the great powers of the Blue Star States, then now its primary enemy has become a small urban area that it once owned - Johannes.
It has been more than three years since Johannes was established as an autonomous region, and as time has passed, the contrast between the non-SA Union and the other side has shown a tendency to change between the two sides.
The results that can be expected in the future are very obvious, if the non-Yugoslav Union does not intervene to stop it, three years and another three years, and it will not be long before the military wings of the Johannes Autonomous Region are full, and there may be no place for it on the continent of the Philippines.
The situation is critical!!
President Haman paused, his gaze swept over everyone present, and said coldly:
"At present, the Johannes Autonomous Region, the illegitimate regime that has fooled the non-Yugoslav masses, not only poses a major threat to the national unity and security of the non-Yugoslav Union, but also implements the dictatorship of interest groups in disregard of freedom and cooking, which is a serious threat to modern global civilization.
Therefore, all countries in the world have supported us, hoping that the non-Yugoslav alliance can destroy the illegal regime of the other side and restore the unity and integrity of our country. β
"We need a war, a war of dishes!"
Wow!
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions finally collapsed.
A war.
After the establishment of the African Federation of South Africa, although there was peace on the surface, because of the particularity of the Philippine region, the local tribes and warlords were not able to lose their tails, and basically hundreds of small-scale armed conflicts occurred every year.
But that's a small fight at best, and I don't know how long it's been since the war happened.
Now, according to the information learned, they have a clear idea of the military strength of both sides, and Johannes seems to be lagging behind the African Federal Republic in all aspects, except for nuclear weapons.
And since the last time they were taken away by the other side, they have been secretly preparing for the past year, and other countries have also vigorously helped.
Whether it is military equipment or other materials, they are now far more than before several times, as long as the other side does not use nuclear weapons, no matter how you look at the non-Yugoslav Union will win the final victory.
It's just that the other side will really not use nuclear weapons when they are forced to do so as a last resort?
Just as everyone in the conference room was muttering in their hearts, the white man sitting next to their president smiled and said with a confident expression that he could control.
"I know that everyone must have some scruples about nuclear weapons now, but at present, the use of nuclear weapons in the international community is inhumane, and if the other side uses nuclear weapons, it will definitely be strongly condemned and sanctioned by international public opinion.
However, in consideration of the fact that the other side jumps over the wall in a hurry, we assure you that when they use nuclear weapons, we will immediately assist you, and also use nuclear weapons to strike the other side, which is our military commitment to the African Federal Alliance. β
After the white man finished speaking, the next moment, President Harman had a stack of papers distributed to everyone.
γNon-Yugoslav Emergency War Actγ
After everyone had read it, President Hammam smiled kindly and said, "Now we are asking for your views on this proposal." β
The ministers fell silent, their expressions very calm.
Now that everything is ready, they can't seem to find a reason to object.
They were able to sit in the ministerial position entirely because of the support of the hardliners within the non-Yugoslav Union, and now that the country is in trouble because of Johannes, they are like dancing in handcuffs, and they can only move forward and cannot go back.
If they retreat in this choice, they will not only lose their ministerial positions, but also lose the support of their factional forces, and it is very likely that they will never have a chance to come back.
If they want to keep everything they have now, they can only follow the hardliners who hold the right power and grit their teeth and go one step at a time.
After all, the current victory rate is very large, and they don't need to go to the battlefield in person, even if it is a war, there seems to be nothing to be afraid of.
After 10 minutes of deliberation, the cabinet ministers voted for the first time: 25 votes were in favor, and only three abstentions, which basically passed the war bill.
The cabinet-level meeting was dissolved, and everyone waited for a second round of parliamentary votes seven days later.
In the next few days, the whole country of the African Federation of South Africa appeared to be calm, but some of those who received the information knew that beneath the calm surface was the coming storm.
Three days later, the SAFEC government voted on an emergency bill in parliament to strengthen national security control.
The result remained unchanged, with more than 400 MPs voting, 394 in favor, 16 against, and 31 abstentions, and the bill passed.
On the surface, security is actually war, and as soon as the bill was announced, the whole country of the non-Yugoslav Federation fell into the water like a boulder, which immediately caused an uproar.
In less than a week, the African Union of South Africa (AUD) had already completed its war mobilization, announcing and launching a war against the autonomous region of Johannes at a time when the world's melon-eating masses were not expecting it.
They are ready to use a military plan developed under the guidance of foreign experts to quickly defeat the Johannes Autonomous Region, which has a relatively short period of independence and is not yet militarily strong, by means of a blitzkrieg.
At the same time, the Autonomous Region of Blue Star Johannes, which is covered by the tight space-time gate area.
An army of 300,000 drawn from the wasteland and fantasy world appeared in various parts of the autonomous region at different times through the gates of time and space.
Although they pay attention to despising the enemy strategically and attaching importance to the enemy tactically, in the face of the non-Southern Alliance, Shen Sen really doesn't think they can have much impact on him.
These 300,000 troops, together with Johannes's own more than 200,000, have exceeded 500,000 in total, more than half of the existing armed forces of the empire.
Dealing with the non-Southern Union is naturally overkill, but for taking over half of the Philippine region after the victory of the war, defending against the Blue Star powers that may turn their faces at any time, these forces are almost barely suitable.
Of the 500,000 troops, only 200,000 were really left for non-Yugoslav regions.
To a certain extent, fighting non-Southern United is a incidental task, and showing his fist to Lanxing is Shen Sen's purpose.
At the very first moment of the announcement of the launch of the war by the African Federation of Yugoslavia, the army that was ready in the autonomous region was finally dispatched.
War, there was a war in the non-Yugoslav Union!
For a while, countless reporters from Blue Star flocked to the city like sharks smelling blood, and the media that got the news once again reported in detail what happened between the non-Southern Union and Johannes from beginning to end.
However, as time went on, news, photographs and videos of negative reports about the state-owned economy and social system of the Johannes Autonomous Region gradually circulated on the Internet, and more and more relevant content became available.
Various experts then began to evaluate the rule of law in the Johannes Autonomous Region on television programs, saying that it was not in line with modern cooking and freedom, so the war waged by the non-Yugoslav Union was a just patriotic war.
Although the majority of public opinion on the Internet has a favorable opinion of the Johannes Autonomous Region and believes that this is not the case, there are still a handful of extremists who have turned from initial support to boycott and abuse.
As a traverser of the 21st century in his previous life, Shen Sen was not surprised by this.
Since the dawn of the Internet, everyone has had the right to speak their minds.
Although it is a free and harmonious second world in fantasy, in the later stages, it is more full of opposites and boundaries than the real world.
On the eve of Shen Sen's crossing, some countries, even Internet giants, already have some kind of cyber sovereignty, which can easily make a person disappear from the online world in order to control online public opinion.
It's just that feng shui takes turns, and now the world's major online media are controlled by the Johannes Autonomous Region, and after dealing with a group of public opinion trolls jumping up and down, the negative reports on Johannes have been reduced by 90 percent in an instant.
After all, the masses are not blind, and it is clear at a glance who is good and who is bad; for so many years, the domestic economy has basically stagnated, security problems have become prominent, and the vulnerable masses have been impoverished.
On the contrary, after the autonomous region came to power, science and technology and economy have leaped forward, the living standards of the people have improved rapidly, and through years of anti-gang and evil eradication, it has now become the safest region in the world.
Seeing the change in public opinion on the Internet, governments know that Johannes is using online media to guide it.
However, they have no choice, the autonomous region is only within the scope of the rules, deleted and banned some accounts, and does not restrict normal speech.
Although countries have recognized the power of the Internet and domestic capital has produced many similar Internet products, network technology has a first-mover advantage that is difficult to reverse once it occupies a major market.
Things can be replaced, and the masses don't like to use them, unless they use the power of the state, but that means that they will have to completely tear their faces with the other side.
All of a sudden, the countries found that the autonomous regions seemed to be more difficult to deal with than before.
With the start of the war of public opinion, the real war full of gunpowder smoke has finally begun.
At an altitude of several thousand meters above the non-southern union, six huge manta ray stealth transport planes carefully evaded the non-southern union's prevention and control system and flew from a distance.
"Command center, command center, the 3rd Mecha Legion has reached the sky over the enemy capital, please instruct!"
"Mission begins!"
In the silent transport warehouse, the red light on the rows of steel heads began to flicker as the voices of the two sides fell.
Pioneer Mech Pilot Protocol! β
Protocol 1: Wired mechas
Neural Connection...
"Nerve connection success!"
"Your Excellency Master Chief, you have now been confirmed to be the pilot of the Pioneer Mech."
"Protocol 2: Stick to the mission!"
"Mission No. 001: Go to the enemy capital and land safely!"
Mission No. 002: Decapitate 735 enemy leaders of the Non-Southern Union.
"Protocol Three: Protect the Mech Pilot Master Chief!"
"The Pioneer Mech is ready to land!"
The door of the plane opened, and the mechs that entered the drop pod were thrown out one by one, and then dived towards the heavily guarded city below, reducing their altitude at great speed.
To everyone's surprise, thousands of steel mechs turned into meteors and landed from the sky on the land of the non-Southern Union capital.
Then, at the speed of the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, he rushed into the Capitol and various government buildings, and wiped out all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries that the non-Southern Union once counted.
They came openly, and when they caught people, they were even more swaggering.
When someone posted the video they shot on the Internet, all the netizens were stupid when they saw the mecha that seemed to come out of the movie in the video, and wondered if they were dreaming.
Beep Pavilion
And when the countries of the world saw those mechas, they fell into contemplation and shock.
What the hell is going on in this world?
A video shot by a blogger who was in the capital of the non-Southern Union at the time had 2.5 billion hits on the whole network, clearly recording the whole process of the mecha legion's debut on Blue Star.
In the video, an elliptical sphere falls from the sky as imagined in a science fiction movie, smashing a huge crater into the ground.
Then a crimson steel mecha with a sci-fi firearm emerges from the smoke of gunpowder.
It flew through the streets and alleys, shooting bullets that pierced through the bodies of countless soldiers, stumps and broken arms, and blood splattered everywhere. Heavy tanks and armored vehicles erupted in flames as nimble missiles pierced them, and finally turned into wreckage.
The entire battlefield was completely under the control of the mecha army, and wherever they passed, all the human forces fell apart in an instant.
The crimson body is like burning blood in the sunlight, and the heavy armor makes people feel a sense of violent beauty.
In less than an hour, by the time they were assembled, the 20,000 non-Southern Union troops stationed in the capital had all disappeared, and only the corpses of the high-ranking officials and dignitaries who ruled the non-Southern Alliance were left.
The war is not over, but the war is over......
