Furthermore, with these charismatic ship girls, it will be easier for the United States to build a domestic consensus.Whether it is conscription or industrial establishment, when the United States has been engaged in neoliberalism for decades and has destroyed its social consensus, it urgently needs such an "idol" with almost religious appeal to regroup public opinion.
Just like in the late Roman Empire, citizens’ spirits were disintegrated, and in the face of barbarian invasion, citizens were unwilling to join the legion to fight even if they cut off their fingers to make themselves disabled. At that time, Rome chose Christianity, a monotheistic religion, to reunite the hearts of the empire. I also chose to rebuild a set of social public influence.
After all, the United States did it by itself, playing neo-liberalism to cripple a bunch of small countries, so it’s not just limping its own people.Engage in identity politics to tear apart the social imaginary community, export it to the world, and cause various countries to engage in identity politics and social turmoil, but the one who gets caught the most is the United States itself.
It can be said that if the United States wants to rebuild its strength as it was during World War II, it must not only restore a strong physical industry, but also need to reunite the masses and establish a strong social mobilization capability.
Of course, even the old Stars and Stripes plutocracy politicians who have been playing power for decades have never imagined that in a situation where the people are generally hopeless and pessimistic, a literal meaning of "falling from the sky" and the existence of supernatural abilities will give the masses much help. To what extent will faith be deified?
For example, in less than a week, the folk rumors have gradually become outrageous. The ship's mother can easily destroy the entire standard battle group of the Zerg. Miss E went up and killed the Zerg in the Southwest Battle of Australia, which made the Zerg change color. and so on.
But for the United States, such outrageous deification is actually exactly what they want.
Redism relies on rational truth to persuade people, and organizes people by political mobilization that clearly explains their interests. Then they rely on inciting emotions, playing with people's hearts, fooling the masses, and letting the masses fall into an irrational and lack of analytical ability, and then add slogans and the incitement of the social atmosphere to organize people.
Of course, such a rise in popularity has also brought about a huge traffic economy objectively. After Ms. E and York City registered their official accounts on social software, it has brought hundreds of millions of attention, and every word and deed directly affects hundreds of millions of people. The thoughts and emotions of the masses have perfectly achieved the plan of the United States, and at the same time brought considerable economic benefits.
Within 24 hours of the opening of Ms. E's "Enterprise" official account, the number of followers on Twitter, Facebook and other mainstream western social media has exceeded [-] million, and the speed continues to exceed [-] million and [-] million. ..
Under the guidance of mature public opinion in the United States, the comment area presents an atmosphere of fanatical praise and worship.
The account was registered by Ms. E herself under the watchful eyes of the media cameras. Although the operation and management is not her own, it is not important, and the publicity effect has been achieved.
After the Enterprise account published a video message recorded by Ms. E calling for joining the army, it immediately ignited the public's emotions. All the conscription points lined up overnight and directly mobilized millions of young people. The effect couldn't be better.
In the anchorage of the Atlantic Fleet, York City stretched her brows for a long time. Since she came to this world, facing the rotten United States, she has never had a relaxing day. She has been working hard to help the United States Navy and the Federation. , I hope that the United States can regain its healthy body and spirit.
However, she also has great doubts about Miss E, who suddenly changed her attitude after returning from the Indian Ocean and is very concerned about "human internal affairs".
"Don't you have an aversion to the United States? You often refuse to cooperate with the navy. Then why help them mobilize society?"
For this, Ms. E did not answer directly, but only answered in a riddle: "This is part of my plan. I will try my best to make the United States and her people happy in my own way."
Her eyes are very firm, full of ideal light without any distracting thoughts, and firm belief in her own beliefs.
After all, these ship girls from another time and space are not technological creations of pioneers, but aggregates of human kindness, simple existences of endless pursuit of beauty.
PS: One thing to say, I think, if the real ship girl comes to the real world, I reckon that this popularity doesn't need any extra merits, it can directly fill up...
Chapter 153 The country is about to perish, and the ship girls are everywhere
The disclosure of the American ship girl has had an important impact on the world. In addition to the changes in the mentality of the people in various countries, and the fact that the United States has gained a lot of popularity, some countries that have been hiding in the past are seeing favorable conditions. , also changed the principle of secrecy one after another, disclosing their own ship girls.
However, not all the previous naval powers and historical ships appeared here. The United States only disclosed the legendary Big E, and kept it hidden from York City. All will fight to defend the survival of human civilization and the liberty of all people, based on the universal values of the United States."
The one who followed this train was the country of Yan. As the most loyal "ally and partner with a special relationship" of the country of the United States, the country of the country had no scruples. Secret cover.
On the second day of Christmas, China held a grand media conference at the Portsmouth Naval Base. Hundreds of media outlets, including the BBC, came to the port. The port was covered with red carpets and warships were covered. The flag and the royal salute are all dressed up, and the battle is as big as it wants. They also prepared good champagne according to the launching ceremony of the Royal Navy's battleship. All the top and face figures were present to hold a press conference.
To be honest, this battle was beyond the expectation of the United States. After all, the United States did not organize such a grand ceremony. It has to be the Royal Kiln... Ahem, the Royal Navy has a long history.
Under the global gaze of long guns and short guns, the elegant royal girl dressed in full dress, stepped on the red carpet with court etiquette under the guidance of the etiquette officer, "reported" to the Queen, and accepted the title of Marquis awarded by the Queen with grand etiquette.
Later, like Big E, he gave a positive energy speech to the world, and proudly announced his name——
"Hood."
How should I put it, thanks to George V, otherwise the queen would publicly read George V’s name to a girl and award him an honor. I guess this would be quite a lot of fun. It would be a lot of fun for the famous cross talk actor Mr. Guo. The material belongs to yes.
However, according to the British Secretary of the Navy, "the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has the 'God's favorite', like our close allies, and Sir Hood is not alone."
Later, it was publicly announced on the spot that Hood would be the core to form a "powerful" "United Kingdom Atlantic Fleet" to be responsible for defending "the needs of European civilization for the lifeline of the Atlantic Ocean". In addition to Hood, the fleet composition includes the Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier , 4 newly commissioned Type 26 frigates (full row 6850 tons), 2 Type 45 guided missile destroyers (full row 7350 tons).
It can be said that a considerable part of the Royal Navy is elite, and at the same time, its thinking is obviously the same as that of the Republic. It is going to follow the thinking of "making ships with guns".
Although the bombs and torpedoes used by Ms. E's hell cats can't break the armor of the Zerg, but the large-caliber guns of the battleship are different.
Cooperating with the armor-piercing warhead specially developed for Hood by the Royal Navy and the modern sighting system, the threat to the Zerg is still great.It's just that the combat distance is still a little closer to the distance of the Befa MAC horizon salvo, but it is said that the United Kingdom has recently obtained some "solutions" from the United States, and I don't know what the situation is.
However, there are also many people here who have raised a question about the country: the elite have cooperated with Hood to form the Atlantic Fleet, so what about the local fleet?
In this regard, the Secretary of the Navy said: There is no need to worry, everything is under control, but five can tell.Choke on the subject.
The ship renovation is also an important reason why Miss E is so popular in the Pacific Ocean, but Hood is very quiet in the European War.
Hood's hull has been undergoing large-scale modernization by the Royal Navy, while Ms. E has always maintained a distance and resistance to the United States, and rejected the United States Navy's modification plan.
However, it is different from the pioneer's technological ship girls. What is more metaphysical is that this kind of modification of the original ship girls seems to be carried out only in the "birth country", and other countries cannot. What the ship girl just found out, the United Kingdom must obtain technology and equipment from the United States, and change hands by itself, which is very troublesome.
At the end of the ceremony, Hood directly led several destroyers and frigates to conduct a live-fire drill. After a lapse of decades, people in Europe heard the sound of the battleship's main guns roaring and salvo again, which was very lively.
However, it is conceivable that when France heard that the United Kingdom was "wearing a high hat" on itself and placing itself in the position of "defender of European civilization", it was unhappy the next day, and the enlistment of the ship girl was also held on a grand scale In the award ceremony, the name of the visitor was also very loud - Richelieu.
Then tit for tat also announced the formation of an "Atlantic Fleet."
Although France's current domestic economic situation is not good, the French still adopted high standards for this facade fleet, and also incorporated their own cutting-edge destroyers and Charles de Gaulle.After all, France now has a great strategic opportunity to "integrate the European continent". At this time, facing the "extra-regional country" that is determined to go with the United States, it cannot show weakness, otherwise it will be the "big brother of the European continent" in the hearts of the masses. The image cannot be preserved.
What's more, putting aside these practical factors - that's the country!France can surrender to anyone, but it cannot surrender to the country!
Can't take this breath!
After the United States, Britain and France successively put the existence of the ship girl on the foreground, the next country is District 11, but now in this region of East Asia, there is a superpower whose painting style is a bit of a precursor to the earth, and the oppressive force is very strong.And these ships from the IJN old military army of World War II, District 11 really dare not use them to stimulate the nerves of the people of the Republic.
However, as District 11, where the citizens "lack a sense of security" every day, since they have this naval asset, they really need to take it out to appease the citizens.
Therefore, District 11 also held a low-key enlistment ceremony for their Yamato on January 1, the new year's new year, but very carefully replaced the royal family's golden chrysanthemum with UNSC's blue background in front of the media. The olive globe flag, the national flag used is also a red heart flag with a white background without radial patterns, not the navy's rising sun flag.
By the way, the military forces of member states under the UNSC framework, on the basis of using the olive flag with a blue background, generally add a symbol representing their own country to the central part, such as the flag of the Republic Expeditionary Force and the center of the soldier's armband. The outline of a hollowed-out five-pointed star, and the 11th district is a solid white circle.
Although this move made many right-wing civil groups express "very shame", the consortium actually in power is rational. Although the ship girl is strong, she can't afford orbital satellite bombing, heavy MAC sniping, and saturation attacks from hypersonic weapons. It's still force on the table, who knows what level the Republic's current strategic weapons have developed to.Don't mess with it, don't mess with it and it's over.
After these four countries, the other countries did not take any action for the time being. Except for Maozi who said in a low-key way that he also had it but did not make it public, the other countries did not express their position at all. I don’t know if they don’t have it or they want to hide it.
As for the Republic, the Navy and the diplomatic system have only issued simple comments on this series of events, which roughly means "Look at the countries concerned, consider the common interests of human civilization, focus on the overall situation, and unite their guns against the unification of the Zerg race." The frontline cause is the starting point and the end point, and strives for the final and complete victory of mankind."
Want to ask the ship girl?
Where did the world-renowned capital ships come from before the Republic?
Nothing!
The Republic doesn't need these things to unite the masses and boost people's hearts. The whole country is building on a large scale, and the whole country is mobilizing in full swing to move towards the interstellar era. Naturally, there is no need to follow suit.
PS: The country is about to perish, and there are ship girls everywhere ()
Chapter 154
If the existence of the Zerg as a "mechanical deity" directly disrupted the historical development track of human beings in the past thousand years, it can be regarded as the "first impact".Then the ship girl came to the front stage from behind the scenes, and as a "cross-time and space" existence, it can probably be counted as a "second impact".
The arrival of the Zerg proves that humans are not alone in the starry sky-although the price is a little bit dangerous.The origin of the ship's mother proves another conjecture that humans have imagined for a long time, that is, the possibility of a multidimensional world.After all, these ship girls are closely related to the real country. It would be illogical to say that the world they came from has nothing to do with this place.
And further, it is natural to think that there is the original world of Jianniang, so is there any other time and space?Are these "secondary time and space" part of the current universe, or are multiple universes entangled or even exist in parallel?
These questions not only trouble scientists who know these confidential details, but also make many curious folks put forward various conjectures. For a time, various sci-fi books involving time travel and the like have increased a lot in the market, whether it is novels or various books. Academic works or street stalls.
There is also the shadow of the United States Federation. They are using their experience in guiding public opinion, and they seem to be intentionally or unintentionally directing the hot topic of discussion in the Western world, the upsurge in interstellar space that began with the arrival of the Zerg, to the topic of time and space.Including a large number of films with time and space themes have also been mass-produced in Hollywood to fulfill their own political mission.
Don't underestimate these seemingly meaningless speculations and fantasies of the masses. Recently, on a certain Twitter, a second-rate science fiction writer suddenly threw out a point of view:
Since the ship girl can come to us in some way, can we think of a way to reverse this process, and then the whole population migrates to that world or any other habitable world, avoiding the pursuit of the Zerg, and continuing human civilization?
Although this point of view was just made up by him in order to sell his crappy new book, he didn't expect it to detonate the whole Internet immediately, and even many domestic website media are discussing this topic. There are a lot of posts, videos, and articles recently discussed. The hotspots are all this "reverse crossing" issue.
Of course, the Republic has no control over how the West thinks about its own future, or what big plans it has hidden.All kinds of popular science media in China basically maintain a unified caliber under the leadership of the official media:
Is there any possibility of reverse travel?Probably not.But even if there is, the technical difficulty is too great, and it is even more difficult to realize the migration of billions of people and the reconstruction of civilization, because not only technical issues will be involved, but also the territorial division, economic structure, and interest exchange of the new world will be involved. question.
Anyway, don’t think about what’s there and what’s not. Let’s build together, mobilize the whole people against aggression, stick to the two five-year plans, and everything will be fine.
There is no way, some things cannot be said too clearly, and only half of them can be said. Although most people can guess that the country is doing big things, they really have no idea.
But for the Republic, there is really no need to engage in those imaginary things. There are hundreds of years of scientific and technological information at hand that can be absorbed. At least the outer cantilever that colonized the Milky Way is not a problem, and the star road also said that the expedition has just begun. Once the UNSC technology is settled, there is still a larger technological system to master, so there is no need to engage in these.
As for the "space-time ascension" that the United States is planning, it is indeed not the same way as the Republic.
Compared with private and virtual networks, due to the arrival of Jianniang, most pessimistic people regained a little bit of confidence, so it was much more lively.Recently, the high-level and military systems of European countries have not been so idle. They have very urgent and very realistic things to do-recover North Africa, drive the Zerg across the Sahara, and establish a wide buffer zone for the European continent including North Africa and the Mediterranean Sea.
With Europe's current strength, it is impossible to completely recover Africa, but if the Zerg are completely allowed to stand firm in Africa and North Africa is used as a front-line base against Europe, then this battle will not be fought. The Zerg flying from the coast of North Africa A large group of aircraft can cross the Mediterranean Sea in a short time and attack Italy, Iberia, Greece, Asia Minor and other regions. After these places are destroyed, the hinterland of Europe will face another attack.
It is conceivable that the Zerg, which has gained a firm foothold on the earth and relies on the resources of the African continent to crazily breed violent soldiers, will obviously attack on a much larger scale than the attack from orbit. Once the bug swarms in science fiction movies come true , and then the front line can't stand it, and the rear is still airborne by the orbit, then it can really be G.
Therefore, it is necessary to take advantage of the Zerg's unstable foothold and at least ensure the control of North Africa. In this way, the war front of European countries is south of the Mediterranean Sea, and the threats to the mainland only come from space. After the orbital defense capabilities are built, the most dangerous The stage is over.
The leading country is France, but Italy is sending the most troops. After all, among the European industrial countries, Germany has collapsed, France is very difficult, and Italy is the only one that is still strong.
France sent 6 mechanized infantry divisions and 3 armored information synthesis combat brigades this time, plus the Atlantic Fleet led by Richelieu.Needless to say, the synthetic troops are all elites that existed before the war. They are fully equipped and trained. They have also experienced the defense battle against the Zerg in West Africa and have rich experience. The 6 mechanized infantry divisions were the result of the mobilization in this European campaign. They did not engage in synthesis and lowered the standard mechanized configuration. It can generally be seen that France's finances are indeed tight.
However, for France, this battle is also a turning point. At least a large number of workers who are engaged in sports on the street every day, now due to the needs of the war industry, there is work to do, including the logistics system, the recruitment of soldiers, etc., can By absorbing many people, the economy and society will be more stable.
This operation is actually not unfamiliar, it is the so-called "transfer conflict", but there is nothing wrong with firing at the Zerg now.
In contrast, Italy dispatched 26 armored infantry divisions, 3 heavy armored divisions, almost all artillery units, and 2 newly formed airborne divisions into combat, mobilizing more than 300 fighters from South Italy set off to provide air support, and more than 30 destroyers and frigates joined the escort and landing. In addition, all civilian ships of medium size and above were mobilized throughout Italy.
In addition, the Iberian couple contributed 4 armored infantry divisions, and the overwhelmed German Federation symbolically sent two armored battalions and 6 brigades of transport helicopters to provide logistics services. Austria, which was disabled before, provided 2 divisions, and Greece provided 5 divisions and 40 fighters.
This is the main frontal troop dispatch under the framework of the European Union this time. For other small countries such as the Netherlands and Luxembourg, the front line basically sends one or two battalions of troops symbolically, and then provides financial and logistical support.
As a country that is now free from the framework of the European continent, the United Kingdom still promised to send troops of two divisions this time, and promised to fully protect the lifeline of the Atlantic Ocean, and also provided a large amount of material support.
On the Eastern Front, the Huskies did not let go of this opportunity to legally send troops to North Africa. Although it was not under the framework of the European Union, they dispatched 12 divisions and a large number of sea and air forces, preparing to cooperate with the "containment attack" in West Asia. It is obvious that Iran is more nervous. Even Maozi was alarmed and warned Huskies not to do something out of the ordinary.
Overall, on the North African battlefield, the EU coalition forces have nearly 50 divisions, nearly 600 main fighters, and a large number of sea forces.
According to the plan, the battle was divided into three routes. The French army plus the Spanish and Portuguese troops, with a total of more than 10 divisions and the Richelieu fleet, formed the "Western Army Group" and served as the main attack on the west route. The goal of the campaign was to clear Morocco and Algeria. According to the reconnaissance, there are not many Zerg nests here.
Italy's 14 armored infantry divisions and all heavy armored units, artillery units, airborne division units, and most of the fighters are classified as the "Central Army Group" to encircle and suppress the swarms entrenched in Tunisia and Libya. The scale of the swarms here The biggest, maybe it is planning to use this place as a springboard to attack Italy and then mainland Europe. According to the reconnaissance information that can be confirmed so far, more than 40 medium-sized insect nests have been discovered, and each medium-sized insect nest can cultivate more than [-] insects within a year There are millions of technological worms, but technological worms are assembled into technological weapons, and advanced arms such as hunters all need advanced insect nests.
But this is astonishing enough. Moreover, no trace of cerebrates has been found in the Australian battlefield, but traces of cerebrates have been found in Libya in North Africa. Its organizational and offensive and defensive capabilities will be improved. , although the military configuration of the North African swarm is weaker than that of the Perth swarm, and it is not equipped with a full set of hunters and battle scorpions, but whether the Central Army can hold it is indeed still a question mark.
Finally, the remaining 12 Italian divisions, 2 Austrian divisions, and 5 Greek divisions, with the corresponding sea and air forces, attacked the Egyptian region, which was second in size to Libya. Strategically, it was a diversionary feint attack, and the troops were assigned to the composition "Oriental Army Group".
On the whole, this time, it is not the pincer offensive used by Operation Neptune, but the strategic arrangement of using two wings to contain and concentrate on attacking the center. After taking Libya and Tunisia, the central army group will develop to the two wings and form a flanking encirclement.
However, it needs to be clear that the goal of the coalition forces is not to wipe out all the swarms in North Africa.The core goal is to mass-kill its vital forces, weaken the size of the insect swarm in Africa, eliminate the fixed insect nests in North Africa, and disarm the violent machines at the door.On this basis, it's best to eliminate, but it's acceptable to fight a rout and drive the swarm across the desert.
However, this time they learned the lessons of Operation Neptune and did not dare to be blindly optimistic about the battle. Italy and France prepared 12 and 4 divisions respectively as reserve forces, which were assembled in Sicily as the "Fourth Army Group" and served as the general reserve force. Of course, France is okay, they just can't fight large-scale wars because of lack of money and domestic problems.Italy has mobilized more than 40 divisions. Although the equipment is generally complete, there are still some problems with the quality of personnel. The combat effectiveness of these reserve divisions is far behind that of the front line. They are still undergoing training. I can only hope that there will be no Here's their chance to show up.
In the first phase of the campaign, the landing in North Africa will be launched at four landing sites from west to east, Algiers, Tunisia, Tripoli, and Cairo. Among them, the two landing sites in Tunisia and Tripoli, which are in charge of the Central Army Group, are heavily defended by insect swarms. region, the battle is bound to be extremely bloody.
The landing plan is launched in the summer of 27, possibly earlier.
The code name of the campaign plan - "Scipio".
PS: Wow, after finishing writing, I found that this chapter is 3400 words, I am at a loss!I'm sorry for not splitting this watery word count into two chapters!By the way, how many people know who Scipio is?
