desolate Afghanistan mountainous area came into view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Yong was a bit surprised, because this desolate region in front of him is the Afghanistan mountainous area where he is

RPGs, and behind them a broken mural written with \"Expel the Devil\", marked below as [Al-Qaeda].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the words [Counter-Terrorism Faction] on the left, Shi Yong clicked on it, and an introduction popped up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Return to the Middle East in the name of counter-terrorism, using high-tech equipment and air superiority to strike extremist organizations, while secretly supporting agents to consolidate oil interests.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The victor who drove the Iraq Federation out of Kuwait ten years ago now faces a combination of more hidden terrorist organizations and regional resistance forces.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the introduction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Yong clicked on [Al-Qaeda] on the right again, and an introduction also popped up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[From the Afghanistan mountains to the Iraq ruins, jihadists, tribal armed forces, and remnants of the former regime formed a loose alliance, using Mobile Corps Commander warfare, suicide attacks, and public opinion warfare to resist aggression.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Claiming to end the order led by the US Federation, but each harboring religious fanaticism, national hatred, or revenge obsession.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the introduction of these two organizations, Shi Yong smacked his lips:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a bit complicated, brothers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This counter-terrorism faction doesn't need to be said, it's very clear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's just that various countries led by the US

complicated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What ruins, jihadists, tribes, remnants of the regime, etc., and their own religious beliefs, hatred, etc., etc., etc.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's too

could Shi Yong not understand, the identity he just started with must be Al-Qaeda or something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>MD... no wonder he is brainwashed by those NPCs all day long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turns out that so many chaotic forces all have their own religious beliefs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about it, it makes sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Religion is the most suitable for brainwashing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it's fortunate that they are Blue Star players, otherwise they would really become war fanatics like those local NPCs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the anti-war propaganda of Blue Star for so many years was not for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially that wave last year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Polar Star's [World War II] game made many Blue Star players understand that those who advocate for war all day long are talking nonsense; if you really let them go up, they will play dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like those high-ranking officials who started the war in Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the immunity of Blue Star players to brainwashing has doubled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the brainwashing of these organizations in the game is just the same old thing, but it works for those local NPC natives who haven't been to school and have no culture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those deceptive words make the Blue Star players want to laugh,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>facing such deceptive words, wanting to play dumb and play serious is really too difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Yong flips through the announcement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he understands a little, finds the \"Earth\" world map of 1991, hangs it in the livestream room,

included.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And it is also clearly stated here in the announcement that at the time point of 2001, the main areas for counter-terrorism are [Iraq Federation] and [Afghanistan

because of the ten-year accumulated grievances and the conflict between the two sides that broke out after the people's livelihood withered under the US Federation's sanctions; [Afghanistan Federation] mentions the 9\u002F11 incident, which the US Federation determined was done by Al-Qaeda, so it carried out counter-terrorism and self-defense actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What makes Blue Star players more curious is what exactly the so-called 9\u002F11 incident did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That made the US Federation retaliate like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, they are also secretly guessing whether this is another pretext for the US Federation to deceive the whole world, because with the deception of the Gulf War just now, the Blue Star players subconsciously thought of this layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And looking at the world map at the beginning of 1991,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>to the east of the Afghanistan Federation is the Republic,
