Chapter 905 Clouds
"Why is this happening?" Du Lin, who was traveling around the world, looked confused after learning the news. He did not think that this was the most appropriate time to start a war.
From some aspects, the Federation is indeed in extreme trouble, with the collapse of the financial order and the economic regression, and many citizens who are as sad as refugees can hardly afford to eat. It is obviously an economic power, but the economy has regressed for ten years because of a financial tsunami. This is the weakest time of the Federation in recent years.
There is often a turning point after some very promoting sentences, which is called But.
However, it is precisely because the Federation is in trouble now that it should not sow the clouds of war at this time. The reason is very simple. If left unchecked, the Federation may take longer to gradually recover, make the market prosperous again, and make the financial order stable again. In this process, some changes will gradually take place in the country to adapt to the present and the future. Without external interference, the Federation may take five to ten years to restore its appearance today, but this does not mean that the Federation is a weak country.
The depreciation of currency and intensification of inflation ultimately lies in the fact that the additional currency is issued and the national credit system cannot support the value of the Federal Shield. The depreciation of the value of money does not mean that the value of gold, silver, copper and iron has also depreciated. It does not mean that a piece of material was needed to build a shell in the past, but now it requires three or five parts. In fact, the things are all there, and the only thing that has become worthless is the Federal Shield, not including other things.
If there is external interference, the whole Federation will unite, and the nation-building clan will monopolize the power in the war. This time there will be no consortium to interfere with them and influence them. They will be able to more concentrate on eliminating all the enemies inside, evaporate them directly in a rude and barbaric way, and then unanimously go out to the outside world. When all the people and the people stand on the side of the federal wartime government, there will be a terrible explosion, that is, productivity.
When people no longer need factories and states to pay them wages, they are willing to work.
When people no longer care about what they get and what they lose, everyone fights to resist the invaders.
Unprecedented cohesion allows the federal government to completely control the human and material resources of the entire society and have a lot of privileges. The financial economy, which they might have taken a very long time to recover, will soon recover after the war, especially when the influence of the war, personal honor and disgrace and gains and losses become less important, the power that erupts from the entire society is enough to change many things.
At this time, the war broke out, and it was completely giving benefits to the Federation!
The little diplomat who was chatting with him smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The situation is not yet certain. I heard that the federal soldiers robbed the Imperial merchants' property and killed several merchants, but they all killed..." This was a bit cold-blooded. If they were all killed, such a thing would not have happened, but after all, the diplomat sighed and continued, "The Empire asked the Federation to hand over the murderer, but the Federation refused to admit that they had done such a thing. Both sides strengthened patrols and defenses on the border, and then..."
Although the border line is important in peacetime, it is impossible for people to stand guard every inch of land. Most of the time, except for the regular patrol teams, there are only the earth and the sky left on the border. However, after falling into a state of tension, more people patrolling the border will become more and more patrol teams, and they will inevitably encounter the other party's patrol team. According to folk sayings, the border line, which was originally nothing, is now becoming tense. The soldiers who work overtime patrol are not very comfortable. They will inevitably have to blew their beards and stare at each other and then have a quarrel.
Soldiers are always a little bit of blood, especially the empire and the federation have a history of war, so I don’t know which key figure fired the first shot and things became confusing.
In addition to the empire's request to hand over the soldiers who rob merchants, the empire also demanded that the federal government hand over the patrol team that fired first and let them go to the imperial military court. This requirement is indeed a bit too much, and it would not be too much trouble if it was resolved privately, but these requirements were officially issued in the form of diplomatic notes, and the federal government could not agree.
At the stalemate, the highest chief of the Imperial Ministry of Defense claimed in front of many journalists that if necessary, the Imperial would seek justice for the dead border guards through armed war. He also asked the Federation to hand over the people to avoid greater and more terrible consequences from the two countries due to some personal mistakes.
The more people know, the more impossible the Federation is to give in. Not only that, the Federation also claims that the Empire should give in. All this is the Empire's conspiracy, which reverses the black and white. If the Empire does not apologize to the Federation and hand over the people, the Federation is not afraid of war.
The border between the two sides, the atmosphere of war is getting stronger and stronger, and large-scale wars may break out anytime and anywhere. Now the Imperial Southerners have begun to head north and almost withdraw the five cities adjacent to the Federation. The cabinet, which has just been reaped from the Federation, has been rich and has also given resettlement fees and measures. It is said that the most people have been resettled to the west!
"If the negotiations in three days cannot reach a consensus...", the diplomat smiled bitterly again, "There may really be a war!"
The war between the empire and the Federation is a disaster for these small countries. First of all, they need to take sides, regardless of whether they send troops or not, they have to take sides. It doesn’t matter if they stand in the wrong position. Anyway, it’s amazing to become a small country in the end. There is actually no big benefit if they stand in the right position. At most, they can get some money or something. Don’t think about the others. The consequences of failure are too serious, but victory may not be too great. Really fucking!
At this moment, all small countries felt helpless and sad. They were not strong in national strength and had no status in diplomacy. They always had the right to choose and no right to let others choose.
Dulin also sighed and asked, "Do you think war will break out?"
The diplomat nodded, "It is very likely that it will erupt. You know, the Empire and the Federation have had such a history, and there is no shortage of pro-war factions in the cabinet and society..."
The extremely powerful empire was invaded by a small second-rate country, which became a shame that the imperial people could not wash away, and society advocated great revengeism. Now that the opportunity has come, some people will start to make trouble. Many marches have been held in the empire, especially some veterans, wearing white military uniforms and medals, standing outside town halls in various places, holding large gatherings of veterans, demanding the cabinet and the federal war. They are willing to go to the front line as soon as possible to release the hatred of the past.
The faint sadness made Du Lin no longer have the intention to continue talking. He said goodbye to the diplomat and closed the door. He was so fucked!
"I have to do something!" After putting aside those worries, he began to consider how to gain more advantages in this war. People are willing to start wars and advocate revengeism. This is a big trend. He will not go against this trend, so he must follow the trend. After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone and was about to dial it out, but he quickly let it go. Since he wanted to do it, then do things to the point where everyone knows it, otherwise he will not reflect his own value.
In the following days, Dulin accelerated his "tourism process" in the Northern Mainland. As he went to a country, he would publicize the barbarity and cruelty of the Federation's unannounced war invading the Empire. He also made some old photos and interview records and rented an exhibition hall for exhibitions. Of course, these photos were actually fake. The cameras were not so clear than 20 years ago. At that time, except for a very small number of pictures that were preserved, many of them had been destroyed or were naturally damaged. While holding such exhibitions, Dulin spent a lot of money and purchased a large amount of supplies to aid the Imperial Army and Navy.
After learning the news, Magus shook his head and said nothing. Anyway, as long as this little thing sees the benefits, he will definitely not let it go.
Originally, the inside story of the federal financial tsunami had been exposed. Dulin's personal image has taken a new level in the empire. He bribed a large number of newspapers to flatter himself and made himself an imperial hero who won the Federation with the "economic war". Many civil society organizations are supporting Dulin, and even the silent church stands up and insists on awarding Dulin a Purple Star Glory Medal to honor his contribution to the empire.
Now he is using "his own money" to aid the Imperial Military, which has led to the donation atmosphere in society, especially the fellow countrymen, who publicly raise funds everywhere and place fixed donation boxes, with something like "Even if you donate only one dollar, it will become a bullet that takes away the enemy's life" similar to an inciting slogan. But everyone is very fond of this, and these people are also promoting Dulin's past and present. A young man who has been full of self-improvement and realized the imperial dream is lifelike. This is simply a waste of time, taking advantage of this opportunity to advertise himself.
The effect...is pretty good. Every day, a large amount of donations are transferred to the accounts of the Ministry of National Defense through the fellow country associations and other non-governmental organizations. Looking at the money, many people already know the answer. The war will definitely break out.
The reason is actually very simple. If the cabinet does not tend to war, they will not accept these civil war donations, and there will be no benefit except to scold them. Only when the cabinet wants a war and decides to fight, will they accept the donations with peace of mind.
