Chapter 1047 - Intensify public opinion
"The buildings in Honolulu are sturdier than the Japanese wooden buildings, which has affected our firepower. Of course, these are not the main ones, the main thing is that our enemies are American civilians, so that the soldiers have some scruples when attacking! Fan Chong focused on a few words in the latter sentence.
"Scruples?" When Meng Xiang heard this, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Our government doesn't seem to be promoting the idea of being a first-class foreigner, right?" ”
After the vanguard military government came to power, it vigorously promoted the idea of reviving China, drummed up the atmosphere of the great power of the Han and Tang dynasties, and was also extremely tough in diplomacy.
"The human heart is the most difficult to transform." Pharmacist Tang said indifferently beside him.
Meng Xiang understood what Lao Tang said, and the China of this era was deeply influenced by the foreign people, and the idea of worshipping the foreign and flattering was more widespread than that of later generations. The impact of a century is not so easy to change. Moreover, the banner of public opinion is still in the hands of those who have received a lot of Western education.
In the past, whether it was dealing with the Japanese or Soviet Russia, the people suffered greatly, and even those elites were also harmed by the greedy eating of old Maozi and little devils, so it is said that the whole country hates Soviet Russia and Japan. When the Chinese army dealt with the little Japanese and the Russians, it did not need to mobilize at all, not only against the soldiers on the battlefield, but also against those civilians.
But for British and Americans, especially Americans who don't bully much of China on the surface, many people's hatred value is not high.
In particular, those elites who have been deeply educated by Western civilization are quite active in supporting China's hegemony in Asia, but they are quite critical of the expedition to attack the United States.
Even if many of them are forward-looking people in various industries in this era, they do not know the many grievances between the United States and China in later generations, and even many of them are unable to adapt for a while because China has reached the top too quickly, thus ignoring the competition between China and the United States in the future.
In the future, China will be listed in the ranks of world hegemons along with Britain, the United States and Germany, which is already the goal that many people have been fighting for all their lives, not to mention the dream of defeating all opponents and global hegemony.
This is mainly due to the fact that Huaxia is changing too fast. It makes the vast majority of people unable to adapt.
To know. It has only been more than seven years since the emergence of the Vanguard Army, and the Vanguard Military Government has only been in power for two or three years in the country. The new generation with confidence in China's revival is still growing, and the mainstream elite is still the same as those who have been influenced by the past. Even if there is still a large group of hot-blooded young people, even if Meng Xiang scatters half of the clone soldiers in his hand and balances it on all levels of society, it is difficult to say that it will change the atmosphere of the entire society at once.
The changes in Huaxia over the years are very fast, but the foundation is too thin. Even though the total industrial volume has ranked among the top five in the world, once it is distributed to the vast land, it is a little worse than the industrial prosperity of Europe and the United States and other countries.
Many elites don't know the total level of China, but they can make a comparison with the United States according to the changes around them. Without understanding the existence of the war machine base, it is still possible to conclude that it cannot match the United States.
Through Meng Xiang's control over the years. They also approve of the war against the United States, drive the United States out of Asia, and completely turn Asia into the Asia of China, and even approve of the practice of fishing in troubled waters in the chaotic Europe, but they are vigorously opposed to the occupation of US territory.
"Many people are still counting on peace talks with the United States!" Old Tang once wanted Meng Xiang to reveal.
It is their expectation to repel the Americans in the Asian region and bring the Americans to the negotiating table.
In fact, even Old Tang himself had this idea in his heart. In the end, it can obtain the status of a three-legged stand with the United States and Germany. It is already the biggest expectation in Old Tang's heart.
It can be said that in addition to knowing that Meng Xiang has the support of the base. The others, including Fan who knew the details of the Chinese army best, did not think of fighting for hegemony with the United States, but did not think of the idea of fighting at the doorstep of the United States and forcing the Americans to surrender.
Wars will always end, and peace talks will come.
"They're partly influenced by you, too!" Old Tang did not forget to pull the banner of Meng Xiang.
"When did I talk about peace talks with the Americans?" Meng Xiang was surprised. If he didn't take advantage of this time to play a piece of the future, Meng Xiang felt sorry for the base in his hand, how could he be busy with peace talks?
"Didn't you tell the Americans to treat their prisoners preferentially? This was not the case with the Japanese and the Russians. This is not an obvious sign of future peace talks! Old Tang smiled
Meng Xiang was speechless for a while, he was influenced by the Korean War in later generations, and thought that shouting this slogan of preferential treatment of prisoners would break the stubborn psychology of the American soldiers, and he could exchange the smallest casualties and costs for the greatest victory.
Facts also played a big role, the American GIs were not like the Japanese and Soviet Russians who had been brainwashed and refused to surrender, and regarded their own life safety as very important, and the Chinese army shouted a few words from time to time to surrender their guns and not kill them, and gave preferential treatment to prisoners, but it made those recruits who hurriedly enlisted because of the rapid expansion of the US army often put up a white flag on the Chinese army.
Even in the battle of Hawaii, 20,000 U.S. troops have surrendered, but those civilians have resisted extremely stubbornly.
"They took the wrong medicine and wanted to selflessly sacrifice their lives for the national property of the United States?" Even Meng Xiang was a little surprised at first.
"They are not desperate for the country, they are desperate to protect their private property and the safety of their families!" In the end, Zhou Bai explained.
After the war between the United States and China, public opinion in the United States immediately shifted from a close ally to a hostile relationship, and the demonization of China was wantonly carried out.
To be honest, Americans' investment in public opinion is definitely not as strong as Meng Xiang's.
However, Meng Xiang's vigorous propaganda in China must first remove the difficulty of the people in deifying the inferior roots of the foreigners, while the Westerners originally looked down on the Chinese, and the words barbaric, ignorant and backward were on their heads, and the demonization was very easy, and the events of the Chinese war against Japan and Soviet Russia, as well as in Southeast Asia and Australia, also gave the American media the subject of demonization.
Despite the justifications of the media shadow companies controlled by Meng Xiang, all kinds of bad words such as killing, looting, concentration camps, supporting puppets, and sponsoring slaughterers were still instilled in the ears of the American people through the joint efforts of the US government and the predators. The American people are also more willing to believe in the brutality of China than the Germans, who are also Caucasians.
Some veterans in Hawaii had at least heard about the preferential treatment of prisoners in China, and it was only in this Hawaii War that many American troops surrendered.
And even in the elementary school campus, there are cartoons demonizing Huaxia in the civilian society, and the impression of Huaxia is extremely bad.
"They will rob all your possessions, burn down all your houses and gardens, and put all the men, including the boys, in concentration camps, and slaughter them all if they are taller than the tires of the cars, while your wives and daughters will be robbed to be comfort women, crying and moaning naked under those yellow-skinned monkeys!" Frequent rumors in the United States, along with images from Japan, Siberia, and the Far East, as well as accounts of the Mongol Yellow Peril dug up from old papers, have alarmed more and more Americans.
Hawaii, which had experienced the Japanese expatriate riots, had a painful lesson, so they strengthened their own defenses, bought more guns and weapons, and reinforced their homes. This time, he also actively participated in street battles in towns such as Honolulu.
Defending the country is not enthusiastic, but when it comes to their families and private property, everyone chooses to carry it to the end, hoping to hold on to the arrival of the national army to keep their home, as was the case in the last Japanese expatriate riot.
Although the groups of civilians are a rabble, they have grown up playing with guns from childhood to adulthood, and they are fighting street battles in the streets and houses they are familiar with, taking advantage of the time and place. The Huaxia army showed no mercy in quickly capturing those vital facilities, but it was somewhat hesitant to deal with civilians in Jing'an. That's why the guns in the streets of Hawaii's major towns are constantly being fired.
"I see!" Meng Xiang nodded, and after pondering for a long time, he listed a few instructions.
"The preferential treatment of prisoners remains unchanged. We are running out of time, and we can use the shortest time to break the enemy's fighting spirit, and we cannot lose the superiority of propaganda and public opinion on the battlefield. Meng Xiang said.
August 45 is approaching, even Meng Xiang does not know what unexpected changes will be, he hopes to gain an advantage over Europe and the United States as soon as possible, if more than 10 million US troops are forced to desperately, even if there is base support, China may have to lose a lot.
"The next step is to intensify public opinion propaganda against civilians in the United States. Even if we are demonized, let Americans know that we follow the sanctity of private property. We don't want more than 100 million Americans to pick up guns and fight us. Meng Xiang continued.
Private property is sacrosanct and is the foundation of Western rules. Even in China, Meng Xiang laid the foundation of the constitution based on this, and did not want the disorderly behavior in Japan and Soviet Russia to affect the country.
As long as this article is recognized, and the private property and personal safety of the occupied territories can be protected, in the Western world, there will be various compromises one after another, and no one will be stupid and desperate.
"There is no need to rush in Hawaii, just take it as a typical example of our manipulation of another order!" Meng Xiang instructed, but there was some disdain in his heart: "It's just a different game rule, and there is still a way to deal with that group of Yankees." (To be continued.) )
