Chapter 271

For this reason, Lin Yi prepared to pull off something massive on a global scale.

Of course, this would require some planning.

Although on the domestic internet, due to the incident where the Korean Coast Guard opened fire,

public opinion in the Dragon Nation was in an uproar.

Some blind citizens even clamored for war against the Korean Nation.

However, after the Dragon Nation's officials merely protested and the Korean Nation explicitly rejected their demands, there was no further movement.

Everything seemed to have fallen silent.

This left many citizens feeling deeply disappointed.

Although the ban on Korean content and the reduction of flight frequencies would indeed cause the Korean Nation's economy to decline,

such punishment could not produce immediate results.

Seeing that the Dragon Nation had only these measures at its disposal,

the citizens within the Korean Nation began to mock them.

"It's great that the Dragon Nation people aren't coming; I've long felt that shopping malls filled with Dragon Nation people were utterly disgusting."

"Yes, and the quality of Dragon Nation people is so poor; they shout and scream in malls, completely lacking the refinement of us Korean people!"

"Our country should actually continue to restrict Dragon Nation people from entering, or force those who do come to wear dog tags for identification,

so that we can keep our distance from these Dragon Nation people!"

"However, the Dragon Nation people are truly weak; apart from protesting, they do nothing else, yet they demand we hand over our heroic coast guards.

Absolutely impossible; if the government dares to do such a thing, I will definitely protest..."

"Exactly; it would be best if no Dragon Nation people came to our country at all. I hate Dragon Nation people the most, even more than those Japanese!"

When this information circulating on the Korean Nation's internet spread back to the domestic sphere,

it immediately caused domestic public opinion to boil over even further.

"Damn it! If we don't go, then we don't go; what's so great about the Korean Nation anyway!"

"Exactly, a nation that only knows how to steal other countries' culture; let whoever wants to go, go!"

"From now on, anyone who goes to the Korean Nation better not claim to be from the Dragon Nation!"

"Have these little Koreans gone mad? DWS Platform, DWS Platform... let the Koreans know your power!"

"Brothers, now is the time for us to unite; let's crowdfund a call to the DWS Platform to take down the Koreans! I, Laozi, will donate three months' wages!"

"Count me in; I'll also contribute three months' wages to fight the Koreans; this country has truly disgusted me!"

"Mourn those fishermen; the Koreans must pay blood for blood!"

Of course, there were also some "little fairies" obsessed with the Korean Wave who disagreed.

"**Oppa is innocent; he just stated on social media that both sides should exercise restraint!"

"Yes, Oppa is so kind; he certainly does not wish for a conflict to erupt."

"Why must a conflict erupt? Isn't it just a few fishermen who died? Moreover, Oppa said

that the cause of this incident was Dragon Nation fishermen crossing borders to fish and insulting the Korean Coast Guard, which led to this outcome.

In the end, those fishermen brought it upon themselves; what were they doing running to Oppa's country? They deserved to be killed!"

"Exactly, and I am about to go to the Korean Nation for surgery; how can I not go?"

"I also need to restock on cosmetics; Korean cosmetics are far superior to the trash available domestically!"

Hearing these words from the little fairies, many netizens were furious.

However, they truly had no way to deal with these people.

Compared to patriotism, these little fairies clearly preferred Korean Oppas, medical aesthetics, and cosmetics.

This remained true even after the domestic ban on Korean content was enacted.

These women still tried every possible method to travel to the Korean Nation, with travel guides even appearing online for this purpose.

They claimed one could transit through Taiwan Province to reach the Korean Nation.

Even the state had no solution for these people.

However, any surge of public attention is limited; after a period of time, this matter seemed to simply fade away.

At least on the official side of the Dragon Nation, there was no further movement.

However, compared to the ordinary citizens of the Korean Nation,

some merchants in the Korean Nation were suffering misfortune.

For them, it was visibly apparent that the number of travelers from the Dragon Nation had decreased significantly.

Cosmetics that were once snapped up by Dragon Nation people in shopping malls were now completely ignored.

Duty-free shops that were once filled with Dragon Nation people now hosted only a stray cat or dog here and there.

In terms of tourism, without Dragon Nation people, many hotels that should have been fully booked

had a large number of vacant rooms.

Tour guides lost their jobs, and the catering industry fell into hardship.

All of this urgently distressed these Korean people.

Although the domestic fervor in the Korean Nation regarding the shooting of fishermen was declining, the damage to the Korean Nation began to manifest.

However, this was not all;

the true disaster for the Korean Nation was only just beginning.

Chapter 203: An Aircraft Carrier Battle Group That Shocks the World! The Sixth Great Rogue!

In modern warfare, aircraft carriers are an important benchmark for measuring a nation's military strength.

This is mainly because aircraft carriers possess strategic projection capabilities,

A single carrier can rapidly deploy military forces on a global scale,

Especially air power, which plays a crucial role in safeguarding national interests, conducting long-distance operations, and intervening in regional conflicts.

Additionally, as an air combat platform,

An aircraft carrier can embark various types of carrier-based aircraft, including fighters, bombers, early warning aircraft, anti-submarine planes, and electronic warfare aircraft, among others,

These aircraft can execute multiple missions such as air defense, attack, reconnaissance, electronic warfare, and support operations.

In fact, this is a manifestation of comprehensive national power,

The construction and operation of an aircraft carrier require high levels of technology, industry, and financial support.

Therefore, possessing an aircraft carrier is regarded as a reflection of a nation's comprehensive national power.

However, what is the correct personnel complement for a single aircraft carrier?

For example, taking the United States' Nimitz-class carriers as a reference, the personnel complement ranges from approximately 5,000 to 6,000 people.

Meanwhile, Long Country's Liaoning Province vessel is relatively similar to Mao Xiong's Kuznetsov-class carrier, with a crew of about 3,000 people.

Of course, if one merely needs to drive a carrier forward, a few hundred people would suffice,

But to enable the carrier to form genuine combat effectiveness, the crew must number at least several thousand.

Therefore, the normal personnel complement for an aircraft carrier falls between 2,000 and 6,000 people,

However, today this common knowledge might be overturned.

Five massive Carrier Fleet 01 formations appeared upon the great sea.

These five huge carrier battle groups included five Ford-class aircraft carriers,

Fifteen Long Country Type 055B ten-thousand-ton guided missile destroyers, and five Long Country Type 054B frigates,

Along with three Borei-class nuclear-powered submarines.

They sailed majestically across the Pacific Ocean.

However, the flags flying on these carriers did not belong to any known nation in the world.

Instead, they bore a flag depicting the J-20 fighter jet.

The appearance of such a massive fleet terrified some merchant vessels upon sighting it.

Especially upon seeing the flags displayed on those warships.

Many people had an app on their phones featuring such a flag,

The DWS platform logo.

Particularly when those merchant ships witnessed those five colossal behemoths—the aircraft carriers—sailing on the sea surface,

Their entire minds went blank.
