Volume Fourteen, Smoke of Gunpowder, Chapter 20, Bloody

The final result of the lack of high-level consultations in the United States is that the United States no longer hesitates on whether to consolidate or not.

More importantly, the Republic transported military supplies on a large scale and actively prepared for the war quickly spread throughout the world, with no secrets at all. When it was discovered that the Republic's military mobilization was concentrated in the local northwest and northeast, as well as the Korean Peninsula in Northeast Asia, the focus of international public opinion quickly shifted from the Republic to Russia, and the main topic of discussion also changed from "will the Republic provoke the war on its own initiative? It turned into "Can Russia block the thunder strike of the Republic?" When analyzing the situation, some Western news media were still afraid that the world would not be in chaos and deliberately found some old accounts, including some views and views on the Sino-Russian historical disputes that were circulating in the past few years.

To be honest, the history of Sino-Russia exchanges is a history of grievances. Even from the modern era after the Chinese New Year, these two largest countries in the world have the largest population and the vast land area, and have never been truly friendly. They are always in a less normal non-equal relationship. If we follow the mutual relationship between the two countries, the modern history of exchanges between the two countries can be roughly divided into three stages. First, from the signing of the "Treaty of Love in the United States" between the two sides in Qunian to the complete breakdown of the relationship between the two sides in the early 1990s.

For more than four years, this was the stage when the relationship between the two sides was extremely unequal. And Russia had an absolute advantage. Second, from the early Li Century days to the late Yin Century days, this was the stage when the relationship between the two sides was relatively equal, and neither side had an absolute advantage. Third, after the era of the 1900s, this was the stage when the relationship between the two sides became unequal again. And the Republic had an absolute advantage. Between these three stages, there were two relatively short intervals, mainly focusing on mutual suspicion and isolation of exchanges.

It can be seen from this that although the Republic now has absolute advantages, it is definitely not Russia who suffers

.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten. It is definitely a truth that you can’t beat. The question is, should you settle the old accounts after you become strong?

There is another question corresponding to this: a great nation needs to have the resilience to endure humiliation and keep a low profile. So should we have the blood to fight back with blood and revenge if we have hatred?

It can be said that how to answer these two questions determines the development direction of the Republic.

If before the Middle East War, the Jin Kingdom of the Republic was still immersed in the joy of national rejuvenation, only the national leaders were focusing on the future, and most people were satisfied with the achievements they had already achieved, then the Middle East War was a slap in the face of the Chinese nation, awakening the complacent descendants of Yan and Huang. The people of Xinyi suddenly realized that national rejuvenation was far from being realized and that the country was still far from being strong.

Just around the New Year, the people of the Republic began to discuss these two issues.

If it were a year ago, such national discussions would definitely be banned, at least they would be banned by the state media and eventually disappeared. In any case, for countries that need to hide their strength and regret, any expansion topic is harmful and useless.

However, after the Middle East War, such topics will not only not be banned, but will receive official support, and at least be approved by power agencies at all levels. In any case, the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is not a matter of a few people or a government. But the affairs of the entire Chinese nation and all the descendants of Yan and Huang, only by focusing on ideas, opening up speeches, in-depth discussions, and working together can we find the most suitable way for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and make fewer mistakes on the road to rejuvenation, and recreate glory at the best cost.

In this discussion, the most talked about is whether it is necessary to settle old accounts with Russia.

This is not surprising, because among the many historical problems, besides the many cultural relics and national treasures that are still scattered in the bay, there are only two problems left that have not been resolved. One is the return of Mongolia. The other is that the land occupied by Russia, which is 10,000 square kilometers of land that has fallen by tens of thousands of square kilometers is actually only involved in the "Aihui Treaty" and the "China-Russia Beijing Treaty"! The land involved in "China-Russia Can Divide the Northwest Boundary" has no much relationship with Russia. Because Mongolia's return is also directly related to Russia, the two issues are one problem, namely China-Russia relations.

Mu Yong doubted that definitely not all citizens of the Republic believe that the territory occupied by Russia should be taken back.

In fact, more than half of the citizens of the Republic believe that there is no reason or the need to raise troops for a problem that has become a historical issue. Many people even believe that the historical issues left over from China and Russia have been recognized by the central governments of both sides after the establishment of the Republic, that is, the Republic authorities have recognized the legitimacy of Russia's control of the Far East. At this time, the legitimacy of Mongolia's independence was recognized. Therefore, the Republic has no reason to raise the past. Even from the perspective of interests, many citizens of the Republic believe that modern countries actually

In power, when the land area reaches a certain level, the role it plays becomes minimal, just like Russia is the largest country in the world, but not the most powerful country in the world. It is difficult to make the republic stronger after reclaiming the old 00,000 square kilometers of land. Because the value of land lies in the resources contained in it, and the people working on it, and the republic does not lack resources, let alone population. Therefore, regaining lost land will bring many difficult problems, such as how to resettle people living on these lands?

"The rational discussion has changed the ideas of the people of the Republic. The old...

Fundamentally, the Republic's authorities were also affected. According to some Western news media, as early as around Yo-Yu-Yu, that is, after the full arms race began, Sino-Russia relations began, and it was only a matter of time before the rebellion was turned around. The Republic's authorities did not take this opportunity to annex Mongolia and complete the left-wing strategic detour against Russia's Asian region. The Republic's army could march into Siberia without borrowing Central Asian countries, cut off part of Russia's Asian state in half, and shorten the Republic's army's march route by thousands of kilometers. With the goal of completely defeating Russia, it was enough to save millions of troops, save billions of tons of materials, and shorten the combat time by more than one year. This benefit far exceeds the disadvantages of annexation of Mongolia, because the Republic's authorities still believe that turning over old historical accounts is not only meaningless, but also cause a lot of trouble.

The question Ran’s question is that this rational attitude does not give a clear answer to those two questions.

Relatively speaking, the second question is easier to answer, or the Republican authorities have already given the answer.

Starting from the Fourth India-Pakistan War in the old year, all the wars that the Republic participated in were proving that a great nation should not only be resilient, but also blood, and blood is much more important than resilience. Resilience can strengthen the country, just as self-cultivation and careful care can help weak patients recover, but to be strong, to transform the accumulated power into real strength, blood is needed. To put it bluntly, the biggest difference between a pig weighing a dog and a lion weighing a kilogram is whether it is bloody. To put it bluntly, if the Republic has no bloody nature and does not dare to challenge hegemony, no matter how developed the economy is, it is nothing more than the second Qing Dynasty, after the next "Opium War", it will be the target of slaughtering and partitioning of the great powers. A nation can sink once, twice, many times, but cannot sink twice in a row.

Sinking is like adrenaline. One injection can save lives, but two consecutive injections will kill you. Faced with opportunities, the Chinese nation made a choice, and the Republic also embarked on a new life.

The problem is that this does not answer the first question accurately.

In fact, after answering the second question, the first question became "Is the correct way to reflect the national bloodline?"

It can be said that this is definitely not a question that can be answered casually.

You should know that since the evaluation of the country, the heads of state have not answered this question.

By counting the modern history of the Republic since the Four Stories, we can even find that the actions of the Republican authorities are actually contradictory. For example, on the issue of southern Tibet, the Republic has been liquidating history, and after the Indian War, the Republic voluntarily gave up the disputed territory in Kashmir. For example, on the issue of the Nansha Islands, the Republic also liquidated history with the countries around the South China Sea, but did not take the opportunity to annex Vietnam after the South China Sea War. Laos and other history are many countries that were once a vassal state of the Central Empire.

Of course, if you don't get entangled in one issue, it is not difficult to understand the basic strategy of the Republic.

Whether or not to liquidate history is not determined by history, but by actual interests. Take the two examples mentioned above. The southern Tibet region is a Khizi embedded in the mouth of the Ganges Plain from the Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon, which is the key entry point for the Republic to control the South Asian subcontinent. The disputed areas in Kashmir are not only unprofitable, but also far away from the core area. The difference between retreating for hundreds of kilometers and advancing for hundreds of kilometers is not obvious. The situation on the Indochina Peninsula is simpler. Laos and Vietnam are independent, and can provide the Republic with the cheapest labor and resources, and the Republic does not need to bear any responsibility for it. If the two countries are annexed, it will not only seal the rare metal mines on the Sichuan-expanded plateau in accordance with domestic laws, causing the Republic to lose its most valuable resource production, but also give nearly 100 million people national treatment, which is equivalent to dispersing social wealth. Other similar issues, without exception, are measured by interests.

That's right, when Western news media came up with this old topic and wanted to use "populism" to influence the Republic and disrupt the Republic, the republic authorities only need to adhere to the "pragmatic policy" and put national interests first and all, and they can easily resolve the crisis, unite the people's hearts and strengths, and make the country move in the right direction.

The problem is that the true value of public opinion propaganda does not necessarily mean that the parties involved are in turmoil.

Western news media are not expected to have an impact on the people of the Republic at this time. It can be said that this is called the drunkard's intention. When Western news media jointly promote the "populism" of the Republic, the problem is not so simple. Among them, the actions of the American news media are easy to understand. After all, the United States is the largest hostile country of the Republic, and the American news media should charge for the country. What is difficult to understand is that some European news media, especially several French, German and Italian concubine streaming media, also joined in, spared no effort to sway flags and shout for the Western camp, and sometimes even more active than the American news media. What is even more difficult to understand is that in this war of public opinion, the Republic's news media not only launched a counterattack immediately, but even did not respond. These difficult-to-understand phenomena appeared together, forming a very strange situation, that is, the whole world believes that the Republic is actively scrambling wars, and the world

When the eight-box is about to break out, only the Republic is actively preparing for the war, while other high-altitude leaves are waiting and watching. It seems that only after the Republic's performance is over, there is room for other countries to perform on stage.

Of course, this situation does not last long, nor can it last long.

On August 2019, the anniversary of the end of World War II, the Russian authorities, contrary to the norm, held a large military parade in Moscow, showing the world Russia's military strength and the achievements of Russia's military equipment in recent years.

You should know that according to Russian tradition, military parades should be held on the 8th of the month, that is, the end of the European War, and the anniversary of the victory of the Patriotic War. On August 2018, the day when the Japanese Emperor announced his unconditional surrender and the end of World War II, symbolic celebrations will only be held in some areas such as the Far East, and generally not in Moscow. It is even more impossible to bring out so many advanced weapons and equipment.

Russia showed off its military strength at this time, definitely not to commemorate the Second World War.

To be honest, after the New Year, few Russians have experienced the largest and most cruel war in human history so far.

Quoting AFP's report: Russia used a large number of advanced weapons and equipment with rudders in the mid-century to commemorate World War II, just to prove to some countries. More than a hundred years have passed, Russia has not only not sunk, but also flourished and strong. Not only has the determination, but also has the ability to fight another nationally mobilized Patriotic War and defeat any invading enemy.

To put it bluntly, Russia is demonstrating to the Republic

It can be said that Russia's move is in sharp contrast with the Republic's calm preparations for war.

More importantly, as relevant reports unfold, the attitudes of European countries behind European news media such as AFP, especially European collective security member states, have risen to the surface and are no longer so difficult to understand.

It can be seen from the AFP report on the military parade in Russia that if European news media sarcastically sarcastically towards the "populism" in the Republic, then the "first military politics" is not just ridicule and sarcasm, but highly concerned. In any case, the Republic is thousands of miles away, and even the nearest overseas military base of the Republic is more than 2,000 kilometers away from the European continent. Russia is right next to it. The Russian armored troops deployed in Kaliningrad are less than 1,000 meters away from the Palin, and there is only a wide attack on the Central European plain in the middle, without any insurmountable natural danger. Relatively speaking, the threat of the Republic is vague and vain, which many Europeans cannot feel. Russia's threat is very real, and the Russian armored troops deployed in Kaliningrad are deployed in Kaliningrad. There is only a wide attack on the Central European plain in the middle, without any insurmountable natural danger. Relatively speaking, the threat of the Republic is vague and vain, which many Europeans cannot feel. Russia's threat is very real, and the Russian armored troops deployed in Kaliningrad are deployed in Kaliningrad.

The team is a dagger under the armpit of Europe, and the Russian army stationed in Belarus and Ukraine is a broken knife mounted on the neck of Europe. Looking back on history, we can find that since Peter the Great, who went to the West to study and study, returned to the backward and conservative Russia, this inland country has not only become the largest country on the Pacific, the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, across the Eurasian continent, but also became the confidant of the European powers and the absolute main force of the two world wars. During the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, Western European countries spent many days and nights in fear. It can be seen that European news media hyped up the domestic problems of the Republic, just to throw bricks and attract jade, bring out Russia's national issues, and let the general public feel the threat from Russia.

It can be said that this move quickly produced an effect.

As European public opinion turns collectively, Russia quickly replaced the Republic and became the focus of global attention. Although the American news media did not change their minds and were still vigorously promoting the national sentiment of the Republic, the American people had deep-rooted prejudice against the Republic and had long believed that the Republic was the biggest potential threat. Therefore, compared with that, the public opinion offensive of the American news media not only failed to achieve results, but also made some Americans with clear minds begin to doubt the fairness of the American news media, and thus doubted whether the US authorities used the media to achieve ulterior secrets.

Within just a few days, international public opinion completely turned, and under the influence of Russia, the United States was hit to the forefront.

At that time, the most concerned issue was whether the United States had a secret alliance with Russia. It can be seen that many United States were unwilling to be implicated by Russia, and more Americans did not want to bleed for Russia. According to relevant laws of the United States, even if the secret alliance treaty between the federal government and Russia was supported by Congress, the Supreme Court could make it a piece of paper in the name of unconstitutionality. In short, when the secret alliance treaty became unsecret, that is, when the US federal government played with fire and burned itself.

To be honest, the US authorities must thank potential enemy countries across the Pacific.

On August 10, just as the US authorities were shocked and worried, the spokesperson of the Republic's Yuan Dynasty and the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced within one day that the new head of state Pei Chengyi would visit Europe in mid-mouth.
