Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 596 - 286: [United States: This Is Material for Weapons of Mass Destruction] (4k)
Ding Jie was chatting with viewers in his livestream room, discussing whether they could replicate an uprising here in the Afghanistan Federation, when he saw someone mention that Polestar had updated.
Upon seeing this.
Ding Jie switched out of the livestream, found the link to the Polestar Official Website, and opened it.
Following the homepage entrance, he found the homepage for the game "Modern Warfare."
At this moment.
An announcement was displayed at the top of the page.
It was about the planned updates for the "Global Anti-Terrorism" DLC.
Ding Jie clicked on it.
What caught his eye was the introduction to the upcoming 2003 version of the "Global Anti-Terrorism" DLC.
In it.
There was a brief description of the situation in the Afghanistan Federation between 2001 and 2003. Ding Jie read it up and down, then couldn’t help but nod and smile:
"Guys."
"Isn’t it pretty much what I said?"
"As expected."
"The US never really planned to develop the Afghanistan Federation."
"This is going to be fun in the future."
Upon hearing this.
Viewers in the livestream room from Blue Star also nodded.
Indeed.
From the content of the announcement.
During the period from 2001 to 2003, the US primarily supported a regime that was friendly to them, then dispatched a large number of soldiers to garrison there.
Other than that... nothing else was done.
It was all about anti-terrorism or on the road to anti-terrorism.
Reconstruction and development?
Figure it out yourself?
The announcement also included some pictures detailing the situation in the Afghanistan Federation during this time period.
The pictures clearly showed.
Even in 2003, two years after the war began and two years after the new regime came to power.
The capital of the Afghanistan Federation still had many areas that remained unrebuilt.
Ruins of buildings were just piled up in the capital.
These were all caused by battles between Al-Qaeda and US forces.
Yet even after two years had passed.
No one had come to clean it up.
If the capital of the Afghanistan Federation was in such a state, one could only imagine how much worse other areas were.
It only takes two months to destroy a federation’s system.
But rebuilding the federation...? It’s not just two years; at this pace, it wouldn’t even be possible in twenty years.
Let alone beyond.
Unless there’s no war here and they focus on development for decades, only then will they get back on track.
But even so.
It would only return to the level of the Afghanistan Federation in 2001.
A war.
Can set back a federation or country for decades, just like with the India Federation or the Afghanistan Federation.
The difference is, compared to the Afghanistan Federation,
The India Federation at least has a larger territory and population, enabling quicker recovery in some places.
But in the Afghanistan Federation,
Seventy percent of the land is mountainous, with no room for development.
Yet the US just set it up and left it at that.
Using it completely as a military base.
In such situations, many Blue Star Players think it’s inevitable that there will be massive uprisings later until the US is overthrown.
These are lessons from various dynasties in the "Huaxia" historical series games.
But evidently....
The US and previous empires didn’t have as long a history as "Huaxia," nor did they consider these issues.
Ding Jie finished reading about the situation in the "Afghanistan Federation."
Then he looked at the new introduction to the "Iraq War."
The first thing that caught his eye was a short video.
Ding Jie clicked play.
The footage was from one of Polestar’s many CGs, featuring a scene at a United Nations meeting.
In the video, a representative from the US held a small transparent bottle containing some white powder.
Claiming it was a raw material for weapons of mass destruction discovered by the US in the Iraq Federation, and since the Iraq Federation supported terrorism,
The US decided to take military action against the Iraq Federation.
Afterward, it detailed the specific content of this "2003" version.
First, players can freely choose their camp.
Playing as soldiers from either US forces or Iraqi forces in combat.
The US will launch an attack starting March 20, 2003.
For players choosing the Iraq Federation camp, they should try to hold off the US until after April 9, with more rewards based on the length of the delay.
The US side likewise. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
The shorter the time, the more rewards there are to be earned.
On both sides, the rewards are to gain more command authority in subsequent battles.
Ding Jie watched for a while, understood, and began to speak:
"For the US, the reward should be a promotion in military rank, allowing for commanding more people in battles later on."
"It looks like the Iraq Federation’s reward should be becoming a small leader, commanding more people for guerrilla warfare."
"The rewards are quite similar."
"But isn’t this timeline a bit ridiculous?"
"Launching an attack on March 20 and capturing the Iraqi capital Baghdad by April 9?"
"That’s faster than the Gulf War, for crying out loud."
"Iraq was overrun in 20 days."
"Turns out during the Gulf War, the US was holding back."
"Now they’re not even bothering to hide it."
"Using a bottle of unknown powder as an excuse to go straight to it."
"They’ve tolerated it for ten years, finally reaching the breaking point."
Ding Jie continued speaking.
After all, such a reason is simply too outrageous.
Talking about materials for weapons of mass destruction.
The US hinted openly and covertly at nuclear bombs, biological weapons, chemical weapons, and such.
But the problem is.
If it’s really raw materials for weapons of mass destruction,
how could it just be kept in a glass bottle?
If it were materials for making nuclear weapons, could glass really block that radiation?
