Chapter 673 After the Event
Three days are enough to happen a lot, three day and night exchanges, three sleeping and awakening, and three fresh newspapers. It is strange that there is no extensive news about the destruction of the Liberty Front, and even if there is, there is no overwhelming report. This seems a bit strange. However, those who care about this news soon found the reason for self-persuasion, which may be because the cabinet does not want some overwhelming reports that should not be revealed, which is known to everyone, so everyone is safe.
It's just a little bit of a pity that such a record should be reported with great importance, so that people can know the majesty of the Imperial Army and its terrible combat effectiveness.
What they hoped for was achieved on the fourth day, but no one was happy about it because the news was very - deadly!
Yes, it's deadly.
The uncrowned kings were the ones who used the same photos and different texts to describe two completely opposite contents. What should be the medals of the heroes in an instant became weapons to kill them.
The front page headline of the Imperial Capital Daily, an expanded photo occupied the entire newspaper's page. It was a photo taken on the hillside. The entire valley was almost filled with corpses with ferocious and distorted faces. What made people feel even chilled was that the ears of these corpses were marked with numbers, just like those animals in slaughterhouses, filled in some numbers on an egg-sized sign, and then used a special machine to penetrate the ears of cows or sheep, so that they had their own "identities".
The same is true for these people. They lay quietly on the ground like slaughtered animals, their heads were covered in blood, and people could smell a strong smell of blood and cold and cruel humanity through the newspaper.
The title of the original front page headline was transferred to the second page, which was the first time since the release of the Imperial Capital Daily. The title "The Truth" also uses bright red colors. The following articles began to reveal the identities of these people. When people were still shocked by the content of the photo and their bodies were trembling, the following words made them feel anger and sadness that they could not speak out.
Because these people are slaves, they live in mines everywhere in the west, living a dark life, and eating something worse than the feed of livestock. Many people get sick due to heavy physical labor and harsh living environment, and are then thrown into abandoned mines waiting for the arrival of death. In the west, there is a world of death that ordinary people cannot imagine. Slaves die every minute every day, and their death will not alarm anyone, except for the hard labor of slaves like them.
The mine owners led by the West Mine Association buy cheap labor from human traffickers through purchases, and then use them excessively until they die, and then replace them with a new batch. It is a lawless world, a world that has never been respected. The mine protection teams under the mine owners are given the power of life and death. They let their emotions control their behavior, killing or raping those slaves wantonly, and no one will judge them, because these slaves do not exist in people's concepts.
Finally, some slaves were liberated and were released by a kind-hearted mine owner. Instead of going home, they devoted themselves to the great cause of liberating slaves. They were called out by these mine owners and capitalists as extremist organizations and killed them wildly. What is presented in the photo is a massacre that occurred four days ago. A group of rescued slaves lived in the valley, but their existence had interfered with some people.
For example, the mine owners, capitalists and human traffickers in the west, so they worked together to find ways to get rid of these slaves, and they really did this.
A cruel massacre was used to cover up the chain of interests in the dark world of the west. For money and power, these crazy people twisted the truth, turned a group of people who yearned for freedom and were unwilling to become slaves into militants, and then bewitched the Imperial Army into a massacre against them. Their wish was fulfilled. If it weren't for a slave who was unwilling to be named who provided such content and information to the newspaper after fleeing the valley, people might have been immersed in cheering for the extermination of militants!
We are fooled, just like every time we are hurt, our kindness is deceived by disgusting vested interests. Today, they can turn black and white into a group of slaves as dangerous militants, so will this happen when we stand in the sun and hold up the banner to fight for our power tomorrow, and they turn us into bad people and let another group of people destroy us?
This is the greatest ridicule of freedom, the greatest defilement of public opinion, the regression of history, and the ugliest scandal of all time!
All those who have read this newspaper have developed many emotions. As the newspaper said, a few days ago, they were still excited about the news coming from the west. The abominable extremist militants are finally over. Now, the newspaper slapped them hard, making their cheeks burnt, making them ashamed. They were actually happy and even cheered for the victory of the executioner, but made a group of innocent people become victims. This is the biggest deception and they were hurt.
Social activists who flocked to the scene instantly appeared in various parks, street corners and places where people gathered. Through their inciting speeches, they let more people know about this and some of the things behind it.
The Western Mining Association was pushed to the forefront by public opinion for a time. People believe that the Western Mining Development Committee knew all the inside story and planned all the actions. Because all the members of this organization are mine owners in the west, they are slave owners, and only these slave owners are worried about the losses caused to them by the exposure of the slaves.
Just the day after this incident started to accumulate strength, a western mine owner named Federer stood up and stood in front of all the media. He claimed that he would hold a press conference in three days to introduce all the inside stories of the West in detail. The entire empire, including the Federation and some small countries around, began to set off for the west. This press conference may change the existing pattern of the west and shake the whole world.
"Look, the West Mine will be over." Dulin threw the West Daily on the table today and looked at Henry sitting opposite him.
Henry's face was a little strange. He kept tilting his head and looking at Dulin. After a while, he said: "This time the person who proposed to wipe out the Free Front first is a friend of my father. Now his situation is very passive. Some people in the Ministry of Defense say that he has close ties with the Western capitalists." Henry couldn't say that he hated Dulin in his heart, but it was definitely not a thing that would not exist if he wanted to thank him. "My father called me at 1:00 last night and asked me to give him an explanation, but I really couldn't think of how to convince him to make sure that this matter was not wrong."
Indeed, after the Liberty Front was wiped out, the trade in the western region began to recover, which made many people agree with the goal plan to eliminate the Liberty Front and restore stability in the western region. However, the reversed public opinion immediately made these people at the core of politics follow the public opinion and began to reverse. They believed that the person who proposed this plan had a certain degree of relationship with the Western Mining Association and the capitalists in the western region, and launched a massacre of the Liberty Front in order to cover up the horrific news such as slaves in the western region.
According to the original plan, we must first ensure the stability of all cities in the west, find the mastermind behind several attacks, and then wipe out the free front that may be difficult. According to normal rules, once the plan is formulated, it is not allowed to change the plan at will without encountering the situation where the plan needs to be changed. Because the Ministry of Defense is formulated, if the Ministry of Defense continues to change the plan, it will only make the grassroots military regions feel the change and incompetence of the Ministry of Defense.
This is a very terrible situation. Try not to change the plan when you can avoid changing it. Ensuring clear and unified commands is a standard that everyone must abide by.
That guy is a little uncomfortable now. It is said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs intends to investigate him. This is a very unfriendly signal. Everyone knows what the Ministry of Internal Affairs does. As long as you are invited to have a lot of coffee, there will be some problems.
The guy called and blamed Henry's father, who called and blamed Henry and asked him to explain, and now Henry threw the problem to Dulin.
Dulin shrugged his shoulders and seemed to be relaxed. He didn't seem to care whether he could answer the question at all, "Henry, a Defense official is in trouble. Will you be implicated? Will your father be implicated?"
Henry thought carefully for a while and shook his head, "I'm not sure, there should be no problem, but there may be."
"Very good, if you are not implicated, then what does this matter have to do with us? Three days ago they opened champagne to celebrate this. Why can't I understand this matter three days later? ", before Henry spoke, Dulin raised his tone and continued, "And I don't think this is a trouble. According to the current results, it is undoubtedly good. Trade has returned to normal and many industries in the empire have returned to stability. This is a good thing, right?"
"As for whether the person who was exterminated was a slave, it was the affairs of the Western State Government and the Western Mining Association. Please feel free, this is not a problem."
"In essence, the normalization of trade in the western region can ensure that all industries in the entire empire are stable. If you can't even understand these simple things, those people in the cabinet can pack up and go home."
Henry was stunned for a moment, and he soon reacted. With the thinking of the entire empire, it was obvious that the importance of the stability of the empire's economic and financial order was far greater than that of a group of slaves being massacred. "What do you mean is nothing wrong?"
