Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 585 - 280: [Reactions from All Sides, a Panicked Japan]
"But look over here."
Yu Feng pointed to the confidential intelligence on the right:
"These are some pieces of intelligence I collected at great cost, some bought from informants, some from high-ranking insiders of the United States Intelligence Bureau."
"This intelligence shows."
"After the Republic acquired nuclear weapons, the Soviet Union urgently convened several meetings."
"And there seems to be an intention to accelerate the encirclement of the Republic’s military power."
"But since the details are from internal meetings of the Soviet Union, we don’t know them."
"If any brothers participate in this part of the plot in the future, remember to record it."
"From here, you can see."
"Even though the Soviet Union congratulates on the surface, it still doesn’t want the Republic to rise privately."
"This is from the Soviet Union’s side."
Yu Feng shifted his tone and said:
"But other countries in the camp, small countries, including their citizens, have all expressed support for the Republic."
Yu Feng displayed another newspaper, including some interviews.
In it, official statements from countries like the Vietnam Federation and the Peninsula in the camp all show that this is a ’victory against imperialism’ and a good thing that strengthens the camp’s overall power.
Showing the live stream audience other countries’ thoughts, Yu Feng smiled and said:
"It can be understood."
"After all, these small countries can’t confront the United States invasion alone."
"Just like on the Peninsula."
"And like the current Vietnam Federation."
"So naturally, the small countries believe the stronger the camp, the better."
"But the Soviet Union has the capability to face the United States alone."
"So when suddenly a Republic emerges in the camp that is catching up with its power, it naturally remains highly vigilant."
"So at this point."
"The contradictions between the Soviet Union and the Republic have come to light."
As he spoke.
Yu Feng took out several newspapers from the end of 1964.
They are newspapers from the Soviet Union and the Republic, criticizing each other and even engaging in public debates.
Such a result was unexpected by everyone.
It has deteriorated to this point.
This is also the first time Blue Star netizens have seen the content of criticism from both sides.
Wow.
The sharpness of the language is astonishing.
You can’t help but admire the brains of the Republic’s literati—how they come up with such sharp wording?
After watching for a while, Yu Feng put the newspapers away.
Then Yu Feng said:
"We’ve seen the reaction from the Soviet Union camp, now let’s look at the reaction from the United States."
"Unlike the Soviet Union."
"The United States has strong control over public opinion."
"To put it bluntly."
"If they want you to know, you’ll know. If they don’t, not even the entire Federation might know."
"The successful atomic bomb test by the Republic, a news that shook the Soviet camp, is known to only a limited few in the United States."
"Because the United States deliberately downplayed its impact."
"So most of the United States citizens do not yet know that the Republic has made an atomic bomb."
"And because of the United States’ claims."
"Even the few who know the Republic’s atomic bomb think its technology is crude, not even one percent of the United States’, under official propaganda."
"So they are not worried about any impact of the Republic making an atomic bomb on them at all."
"This...."
"How should I say this."
"It’s absurd that the United States can mix science popularization with public opinion propaganda to this extent."
"You have to know that the United States claims to promote freedom."
"But in such a free federation, the information citizens know is mostly concocted by the federal government itself."
"Can you believe it?"
Yu Feng shook his head and then continued:
"Although the United States is fooling its citizens like this."
"Internally, it is also highly tense, similar to the Soviet Union."
"After all, fooling the public is one thing."
"They themselves know the reality—apart from yield, there is no hundredfold difference in atomic bombs."
"After several rounds of meetings in the United States."
"It was finally decided to increase the nuclear deterrent force in the Asian Region, deploying more nuclear weapons in bases like Guam and Okinawa."
"To surround the Republic from multiple directions, to restrain it."
"Meanwhile."
"The United States contacted the Soviet Union, attempting to jointly restrain the Republic again."
"But it didn’t work this time."
"Why?"
"Because the two sides are originally in a hostile state, previously the Soviet Union took the initiative to visit the United States, resulting in fruitless efforts after the U-2 incident and competing for the support of emerging African nations."
"At this point, trying to unite with the Soviet Union surely isn’t feasible."
"Not to mention that many in the Soviet camp support the Republic possessing nuclear weapons, especially in the Asian Region."
"Because the Republic with nuclear weapons can genuinely help them, being so close."
"So even if the Soviet Union wanted to ally with the United States, it would need to consider the voices within the camp."
"This is the reaction of the superpowers in the two camps."
"In comparison."
"The reactions of other federations and countries are quite interesting."
"Let’s talk about the other federations among the five permanent members."
"First is the British Commonwealth, which after the Republic’s successful atomic bomb test, openly congratulated, acknowledging the Republic’s nuclear technological breakthrough."
"But at the same time, it heightened their concerns about the Asian situation."
"So they accelerated troop withdrawal from the conflict-prone areas of the Singapore Federation and Malaysia Federation to avoid the risk of getting involved in conflicts."
"Now, the situation on ’Earth’ is quite simple."
"The two superpowers are confronting each other in every corner of the world, and here in Asia there is the Republic confronting the United States."
"The United States’ reinforcements in the Asian Region, the Republic’s breakthrough in nuclear weapons."
"If a conflict breaks out."
"It certainly won’t be small in scale, which is what the British Commonwealth is concerned about."
"Currently, the British Commonwealth truly doesn’t want to join any side."
"The French Federation, under De Gaulle’s government, has praised the Republic’s independent nuclear research, perhaps akin to General de Gaulle’s solitary persistence during World War II."
"After the Republic’s successful nuclear weapon tests, France is inclined to strengthen deep cooperation with the Republic."
"In Japan, public panic has emerged."
"Even Japan’s Emperor and Prime Minister, after urgent discussions, have requested the United States to provide a ’nuclear umbrella’ to prevent the Republic from retaliating for Japan’s crimes during World War II."
"This is a normal reaction, given the deep animosity between them, Japan’s fear is quite normal."
"Then there are other federations and countries."
"The attitudes of the camps generally align with their leaders, which I won’t elaborate on."
"Let’s look at Africa."
"In Africa, due to the rise of independence movements, there is admiration and congratulations for the Republic for withstanding pressure and breaking the nuclear monopoly of the two superpowers."
"The Republic’s resistance to pressure and breaking the monopoly of the two superpowers also serves as an encouragement for the nascent independent countries in Africa."
"It shows that even the two superpowers aren’t invincible."
"Just look at the Republic, which broke through the blockade of the two superpowers and developed nuclear weapons independently."
"This is the reaction on ’Earth’ after the Republic broke the nuclear blockade in 1964."
"And then comes 1965."
"This year, the United States massively intervened in the Vietnam Federation war, the Republic launched an anti-U.S. and pro-Vietnam campaign, helping the Vietnam Federation fight against the United States invaders."
"Meanwhile."
"This year."
"The Soviet Union hosted an international conference, but the Republic, as the second most powerful in the camp."
"Uncharacteristically refused to attend this conference."
The words fell, and the Blue Star audience in the live stream was shocked.
Hiss—
The situation has escalated to the point where even superficial efforts are no longer needed?
