Chapter 836: Deafening and the Hot Summer Plan
Being deafening doesn't necessarily require thunderous rage; sometimes it's just a sentence that isn't very loud that can cause a thunderclap in one's heart!
Mr. Cassia's hand trembled slightly, and the ash fell on the desktop. He hurriedly picked up a piece of paper to shovel the ash, put it into the ashtray, and then wiped it with a towel.
"You make me not know what to say!"
Mr. Cassia sighed, "I need to consider it. This matter is not so easy to make a decision on."
Mr. Gomez nodded, "Of course, you should consider it carefully, but no matter what decision you eventually make, we are friends!"
He appeared very sincere, but now in Mr. Cassia's eyes, his sincerity might not be true sincerity!
An ambitious person who has found an opportunity, every word he says needs to be repeatedly scrutinized before deciding whether to believe it.
Originally, Mr. Cassia intended to let Mr. Gomez stay in the villa. This villa was too big and had many guest rooms, which could completely allow Mr. Gomez to enjoy a whole night of solitude there.
But he refused, saying he had booked a room at a hotel in the city. Mr. Cassia didn't try to keep him too much.
When he finished washing and lay on the bed at night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
"You have something on your mind!", his wife said lying beside him.
Mr. Cassia sighed, "Mr. Gomez's performance tonight made me feel he is very strange, but he also convinced me."
"I have been hesitating."
His wife turned to face him. In the darkness, she could see the faint light reflected in her eyes, "What are you hesitating about?"
Mr. Cassia was a bit hesitant, "I don't know, whether loyalty or the people are more important."
Mr. Cassia's wife had also been socializing during this period. As the "Ambassador's wife," even if she didn't have a high level of education, she could still get along in the circle of noble ladies, just because of her status.
This is like a noble girl, even if she is a fool, someone will invite them to participate in flower arrangement salons. These women don't want the Ambassador's wife to be knowledgeable and eloquent.
What they want is a kind of "sense of level." When they go out in the future, they can say to ladies in other circles that they often chat about politics with the Ambassador's wife.
Damn it, who knows what they are actually chatting about, and how much the Ambassador's wife participates?
As long as there is this title, it is enough.
So she could also come into contact with some current affairs news. Women are not all able to endure loneliness.
At this time, she also had some of her own thoughts, "I heard a saying recently."
Mr. Cassia smiled, "Maybe it can provide me with some reference."
He said so on his lips, but in reality, he didn't think so. His wife was only taught by a tutor, and the study time was not bad.
He said this just to show respect for his wife.
His wife could also hear it, but she wasn't angry.
The status of women in Lapa was not high to begin with, and the respect he showed at this time was already moving.
"They say that loyalty to the country is actually loyalty to the people, because the people are the masters of this country and the main body of this country."
Mr. Cassia, who was originally thinking about how to brush off his wife and make her feel that she really played some role, was stunned.
His brain was blank, and then he started to have tinnitus, and even felt a little nauseous!
Countless things were spinning, and the worldview established in the past began to collapse!
In a short period of time, two thunderbolts exploded, and his worldview was shattered.
But it was being rebuilt very quickly.
He suddenly came back to his senses and found that he was being shaken by his wife, "What's wrong with you?"
Her tone was a bit anxious. Mr. Cassia shook his head, "I'm fine, better than ever."
With the help of the Federation, the Slades finally pushed the front line back to the original border line between the two countries, which greatly boosted the morale of the Slades.
Because of the New Year, both sides tacitly chose a temporary ceasefire in January.
Actually, it couldn't be considered a ceasefire, it could only be considered a halftime break, because they were all re-accumulating strength and continuing to fight for the next battle.
Inside the Presidential Palace of the Dantela Republic, the country's generals, the Prime Minister, and some high government officials were all here.
Their expressions were very serious because they began to feel tremendous pressure.
Before, they had been fighting in the territory of the Slades. No matter to what extent the war was fought, the ones eventually destroyed were the cities and countries of the Slades, not theirs.
But now the front line had been pushed back to the border, which meant that once the war continued to fail, they would transform from an invasion war to a resistance war.
Artillery fire would destroy their villages, towns, cities, and everything.
Stabbing others with a knife is certainly cool, but being stabbed by others is not very pleasurable.
"The variables brought by the Federation people are too great. Their war style is rapidly taking shape, and I have to admit one point, which is that their supplies are very thick."
"Our shelling lasts about two to three rounds before we blow the horn to attack. They might shell for three to five rounds before blowing the horn to attack."
"This is not a problem of shelling, there are other similar problems. Their investment in war is much larger than ours."
"Brave soldiers have to rush up against the bullet storm after being saturatedly shelled. Our losses are very large."
Everyone knew what this army general said. The Federation people were very rich and very willing. The war damage ratio of both sides was changing.
The casualties of the Dantela army were now beginning to become more, and the casualties of the federal army were beginning to decrease.
Some people said that they just used money to win every battle.
But war, as an act, never considers the process, but the result.
Now the morale of the Federation people is getting higher and higher. If they continue to let them win, it will soon become a big trouble for the Dantela people.
They took advantage of this temporary truce period to discuss how to solve this problem.
"The Federation people have gained a more important right to speak and position in the Slade Alliance. From the intelligence we have obtained, the federal government wants to lead this war."
The military intelligence person in charge on the side said such a statement at this time, "Hatred always has a time to be resolved, but greed is endless, gentlemen."
"We are not facing the Slades who have a blood feud with us; we are facing the Federation people who have endless greed for our territory, wealth, and people!"
The intelligence director raised his hand, "I noticed one thing."
"Before the war broke out, the Federation's economy had already entered a recession. From some of their newspapers, it can be seen that they were mainly discussing some problems brought to society by the economic depression."
"Unemployment rate, chaos, gangs, parades and demonstrations."
"Various social problems occurred frequently."
"But since the outbreak of the war, their economic downturn has not only stopped, but the entire national economy has begun to turn for the better."
"Because of trade."
At this time, the Prime Minister nodded and tapped his finger on the desktop, "Our war with Slade makes Slade industry operate at full capacity. Many production aspects of people's livelihood have completely stagnated. They chose to import from the Federation."
"Including other alliance countries, they are all importing a large amount of goods from the Federation. Their economy will get better and better."
"The improvement of the economy also provides them with greater war potential. This is a virtuous cycle, but for us, it is very bad."
"In order to curb the economic problems in their country, their government will definitely increase investment in the war to alleviate economic problems, and at the same time obtain more war returns through plunder and other means."
"We must give them a heavy punch, otherwise their greed will destroy everything!"
The President listened to these and thought for a while before shaking his head, "You haven't told me yet, what method do you intend to use to curb their momentum?"
Several military leaders looked at each other, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy said, "We intend to sneak attack Jincheng."
"Sneak attack... Jincheng?", the President dazed for a moment, "This plan seems to have been heard somewhere."
The Prime Minister reminded him, "Last year's federal movie, the one that was very popular."
The President reacted immediately. He not only watched it, but also took everyone to watch it together.
His expression at this time was very strange, "Are you sure you aren't joking with me?"
"Using the federal movie script as a blueprint to create a plan to sneak attack Jincheng?"
He said this and couldn't help but laugh, "Very funny, this joke."
But the military generals had no smiles on their faces, only a little embarrassment, which also made the President serious, "Don't tell me you are serious."
The military leader nodded, "In addition to the plan to sneak attack Jincheng, we have contacted the countries north of the Federation and are secretly negotiating with them."
The President looked at the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister nodded slightly, "I gave you a report before the New Year."
The President suddenly closed his eyes and patted his forehead, "Fuck, I remember."
He had too much work content every day. Some things he was looking at, and when he was halfway through, suddenly there was an urgent matter, and he forgot it.
The Prime Minister explained, "We sent a secret team to contact the three northern countries of the Federation and talked about the idea of jointly attacking the Federation."
The President nodded, "Yes, I remember I read this. What was the result?"
A diplomat replied, "There is some progress. They are actually worried about the Federation's sudden interference in other countries' wars, and the Federation has been absorbing their population."
"Currently, we haven't been able to convince them to send troops with us, but I believe that after we sneak attack Jincheng, they will definitely form an alliance with us."
The President asked very seriously: "Why?"
He didn't feel ashamed because of his ignorance... He was just a President, and he wasn't Superman. He didn't know everything. It was normal to have things he didn't know.
"Once we sneak attack Jincheng, the Federation people will immediately follow the script in the movie and take action against Xiang Yalan."
"As long as they invade the Xiang Yalan region, we can convince the three northern countries to form an alliance with us, because the Federation is starting to become dangerous. They might be the next country to be invaded."
"This way we can continue to involve the Federation's energy at sea, and at the same time, the three northern countries can also pose a threat to the Federation's mainland, so that they cannot put all their energy on the South Continent battlefield."
"And after we severely damaged Jincheng, it is also a huge impact on the Federation's shipping."
"Their ports in Jinzhou cannot support the docking of large cargo ships. In a short period of time, the amount of supplies they transport to the South Continent will also decrease, giving us some time windows."
After listening, the President asked a question, "If we let the Federation people occupy Xiang Yalan and Star Island, will it pose a threat to our strategic plan in the East Ocean?"
Star Island and Xiang Yalan are closer to the Federation and further away from Dantela. Besides these two places, there are actually other islands in the East Ocean.
But compared to the overall environment, it is certainly not as good as Star Island and Xiang Yalan. The President's worry is normal.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy gave a negative point of view, "These two regions are a considerable distance away from us. It can serve as a barrier for the Federation's defense, but it cannot serve as an outpost for them to attack us."
"And I believe that once the Federation people invade Xiang Yalan, they will definitely have conflicts with the local people."
"There is no unified regime in the Xiang Yalan region. Large and small countries, tribes, warlords, these people will all become trouble for the Federation people."
The President had been listening very seriously, but as he listened, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. He almost laughed out loud.
"Are you sure this isn't a 'New Year's gift'?"
He was still a bit suspicious of whether these people were joking with him, because... using the federal movie script as a battle plan, this might be the first time in the world, and it might be the last time. It was too ridiculous!
But the gentlemen at the conference table were all shaking their heads. They were all sure that this was indeed a battle plan.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy said, "Mr. President, it is precisely because we all think it is too absurd to be true that the Federation people won't think it is true."
"Even if their spies and agents find out some news, they will think it is a fake battle plan."
The President rubbed his temples, "Since you all think this plan is feasible, then... let's execute it like this."
He said this and paused, "What is the name of this battle plan?"
"We have to give it a louder name!"
The Prime Minister smiled and said, "Hot Summer!"
A hot summer, artillery fire, cities wailing under naval guns, it's really not bad!
The President had no other opinions.
Soon he continued to the next topic, "We must speed up the battle in the east, more resources, more population. This is a war that determines the fate of the country for the next hundred years. We can die, but we cannot lose!"
He stood up slowly, and everyone else stood up, "For Dantela!"
The style of the Dantela Republic was very tough. Soon the battle plan began to be distributed, and some Dantela spies wandering in other countries began to collect intelligence for the execution of this battle plan.
Many of them even infiltrated Jincheng.
The Federation didn't have any household registration system, and there was no good way to identify people entering the country.
If it was just relying on skin color or appearance... everyone basically had no big difference, and many spies held Slade passports.
They had been lurking in Slade for a long time. Originally, the purpose was to steal Slade's military intelligence. Now that they needed them to come to the Federation, it was actually easier.
These spies needed to figure out the coastal defense situation in Liklai State, as well as how many navies, how many warships, and their attendance and training plans in the Jincheng Naval Base.
January and February have always been the coldest times of the year, but on the Tanfeit battlefield, people only felt a piece of heat.
The federal government began to allow reporters to go to the front line to report some real situations on the front line, but all manuscripts must be reviewed and passed by the federal government before they can be published.
The public finally read from the newspapers about the front line that was different from the official press release, but they were all good front lines, what they were doing every day, advancing, and eliminating enemies, and so on.
The Federation people's enthusiasm for war and enthusiasm for winning were unprecedentedly high!
Once a small newspaper hoped to gain attention and increase sales by manufacturing some fake news. They reported the news of heavy casualties on the front line.
Subsequently, the reporter, editor-in-chief, editor-in-chief, and the owner of the newspaper who wrote this news were all arrested, and it was the Federal Bureau of Investigation that arrested them.
The reason they gave was that this newspaper was controlled by foreign forces, and they tried to mislead the public and cause panic and anxiety by compiling fake news.
Many federal citizens said it was good to catch them after knowing it. For these people who destroyed the current good situation of the Federation, they were also deeply hateful!
On the weekend of early February, many people gathered at the Jincheng pier. With the arrival of several warships, the girls on the pier began to wave the flower bouquets in their hands.
Today was the time for the soldiers on the front line to return for rest. Some officers and some veterans all got the opportunity to rest.
They would stay in the country for about a week, and then they would rush to the battlefield again.
Actually, this was also a political propaganda method created by the Department of Defense. This batch of young guys were all very excellent guys, handsome, handsome, plus their shoulder straps different from ordinary soldiers, the girls on the pier began to go crazy!
The reporter of *Today's Jincheng* took some snapshots with a sense of feeling and used it on the front page headline the next day—*The Journey Continues*
Lanse finished reading this report. It was written very sentimentally, a very typical "official style."
Romanticizing and idealizing the war, hiding the cruel things. The first impression after reading this news draft was that as long as you join the federal army and fight on the front line, you can not only become an officer, but also gain status, prestige, wealth, and girls!
I don't know how many people will sign up for the army and fight for the future of the old masters!
Then he put his gaze on Mr. Gomez in front of him...
