The full name of the Flying Flame Land should be the Alliance of the Thirteen Kingdoms of Flying Flame, which is roughly divided into two alliances based on the Nirmasas bloodline and the Absalom bloodline. According to ancient customs, the fifth ability The level location will be called the Royal Court.
The six lands governed by the Nirmathas blood system are Yuguang, Qinglin, Tengsha, Kongyu, Canqiu and Huiling, and the six lands governed by the Absalom blood system are Huanghai, Tianhong, The seven places of Qingting, Yancheng, Lifeng, Yanyuan and Jiyan are the places of flying flames. The two sides use the Salsa River as the dividing line and have jointly ruled the country for a long time.
The fifth-level powerhouse of this generation in the Flying Flame Land, the Chrysalis Savaga Nirmasas was born in the Tengsha Land, while the King of Jhin, Dastil Absalom, was born in the Fire Abyss. land.
The relationship between the two parties cannot be said to be bad. They just beat each other up when they were young and there was a little friction.
But the two people who had a small friction were worrying about the same thing recently.
That is the ‘public opinion offensive’ from Silver Peak Leader.
Public opinion offensive - this term has appeared a long time ago. Its original most important purpose was to prevent the four orthodox religions from having the opportunity to intervene, and to encourage local people to avoid management troubles.
If there is no need for inheritance, no need to take care of future generations, and no need to consider the family, then the sublime has almost no need for ordinary people. But after all, the sublimator family is the norm in this world, so social forms such as the country still exist in the world, and controlling public opinion is still a moderate matter that requires the attention of rulers.
But now, in this generation after the declaration of perpetual motion, everything has changed.
The power of public opinion is getting stronger and stronger, and sociology is becoming more and more important, but many ascendant ruling groups have not noticed this... Just like Feiyandi, facing the continuous propaganda offensive from the Silver Peak Leader , their weak media simply cannot fight against it.
If it were in the past, if you couldn't defeat it, you couldn't defeat it. At worst, the entire field would remain silent and wait for the topic to pass before continuing. But now, it is not so easy for officials in various countries to suppress the media's mouthpieces. In the past, they only needed to Threatening to silence or threaten the future of future generations will suffice.
And now, I have to pack my bags and apply for political asylum... Do you still dare to kill someone?
If you kill someone and bring their soul back to life, or you will be pulled back to life by a perpetual motion machine in the future, just make a news and advertise it widely. Do you still want to vote?
What's more, the silence in the past was just a lie to ourselves, the problem was not solved, and the people's anger and disappointment only diluted rather than disappeared. But now, when it comes to voting, lying to yourself is really just lying to yourself.
Theoretically speaking, no matter what Yinfeng leads the public opinion, the Feiyan side should calm down, deal with it silently, silently solve the problem itself, and then try to reverse the public opinion - after all, we are all from Feiyan. They are all willing to believe in Feiyandi.
But in fact, the public opinion war in Yinfeng collar is far from that simple.
The first people to speak out were some people from Feiyandi who had been to Yinfeng collar for work, tourism or to visit relatives and friends. After they return to Feiyan Land, they will express their appreciation to their relatives and friends around the Silver Peak Territory for its cleanliness, civilization and safety - there are no thieves or robbers, there is elegant music on the streets, free food and drinks, and amiable enthusiasm. Silver Peak leads people.
These speeches will be accurately captured by the relevant media, and then extended and amplified, and then begin to 'question' some of the local actions of Feiyandi.
——Why are there still so many thieves in our local area?
——Why don’t we have convenient public transportation yet?
——Why has our road condition remained unchanged for decades and is so old and dirty?
——Why are our inspectors so unreasonable, impatient and intimidating?
These are old problems that actually exist and have troubled the people of Feiyan for a long time.
It is completely normal for the local media to directly use the current situation of the Silver Peak Territory to question some of the inherent ills of Feiyan Land. The only problem is that the intensity of the propaganda this time is too great, and it is obvious that other forces are behind it. Push hands.
However, this kind of attacks and doubts are now everywhere among countries. Since Feiyandi has no ability to solve it, even if he knows that there is someone behind the propaganda, he can only swallow his anger.
After all, he can't break his guard and get angry, right? If the defense is really broken, it will be funny.
——The officials of Feiyandi have broken their guard. They have been furious all day long because of the speeches made by their domestic media!
——Why? Did the media say false news or make false reports?
——No, just repeating what they did in the past.
In order to prevent themselves from turning from incompetent to a laughingstock, Feiyandi's public opinion department couldn't even fight back.
This is also the reason why King Jhin invited a group of ministers to come and hold a meeting.
But until the end, King Jhin did not hear any valuable advice from his ministers.
As for counterattack? Are you kidding? He didn't major in journalism or sociology. How did he know how to counterattack this kind of light and weak attack?
In order to avoid being seen as making a fuss out of a molehill, King Jhin could only hold back his anger and wait for Feiyan's own reforms to satisfy the people.
As long as Feiyandi's reform can go smoothly and these problems left over from the past hundreds of years are solved within a few years, then the local people of Feiyandi will still be willing to believe in them.
As long as he keeps his composure, Feiyandi doesn't need to fight a public opinion war at all, and he can win naturally!
But, is it really possible to be calm?
It's hard.
Because at this moment, the second wave of the Silver Peak Leader's offensive appeared.
This time, it is Yinfengling’s large-scale dumping of cheap goods.
Specially targeting the seven lands of the Absalom bloodline, the Silver Peak Territory built a large market outside the national border through the original 'Gap of the Western Mountains', a military important site that is now a port for exchanges between the two countries.
This market does not sell any luxury goods, but only various daily products, various furniture and electronic products, and even a large amount of cheap fresh food.
How cheap is it?
It’s so cheap that even if you have to pay cross-border taxes, it’s still more cost-effective to buy things!
This is not surprising, because there is a lack of high-quality farmland in Feiyan Land, and the pressure on food is already great, especially fresh fruits and vegetables. Except for a few areas where they can be purchased at a reasonable price, most other areas are quite expensive.
As for the intake of meat and protein, fish and beans are the main ingredients in Feiyan Land. People who can really eat meat every day are definitely considered rich in Feiyan Land.
A variety of practical furniture, such as electric fans, dehumidifiers and mosquito repellents, etc., have been highly praised by the people of Feiyan Land - the climate in their place is similar to Nanling, which is hot, humid and full of insects. Similar products have always been in demand in the market, but most of those who manufacture these appliances are from the City of Knowledge, and the City of Knowledge sells them at the price of specialty products, which is very expensive.
Yinfengling sells products normally, with some functions and efficiencies reduced, and produces and sells them in large quantities, making small profits but quick turnover. In an instant, it captures almost all target user groups in Feiyan Land, making Yinfengling's products 'cheap' The label of "practical" hits everyone's mind.
But the scariest thing is not this.
The most terrifying thing is that Yinfengling has vigorously supported local workshops in Feiyan, invested in production in Feiyan, established a large number of factories and workshops, and created many jobs.
It's not about building a branch, but really teaching local people how to make their own production lines... But how to teach them? The technical level is not so easy to raise. Even if you want to teach, Feiyandi does not have enough resources to teach.
So, these core factory workers and technicians, and even all the workshop executives, have to go to Yinfeng to 'study abroad'.
And these people who study abroad, after seeing and experiencing the life in the Silver Peak Territory, are willing to return to Feiyan Land, they can be said to be extremely patriotic.
But no matter how patriotic they are, they will all admit that the current Feiyan Land is far different from the Silver Peak Territory.
Furthermore, Silver Peak Leader is indeed extremely friendly. What they saw and heard in Silver Peak Territory and all the civilized order they felt made them deeply impressed.
Businessmen pursue profit, but Yinfengling does not want profit, only fame.
At this point, the public opinion media within Feiyan Land can hardly compete with the public opinion army of the Silver Peak Leader for influence. Many Feiyan Land media outlets have even been bribed by the Silver Peak Leader and have become their mouthpieces.
But this mouthpiece does not require them to tell pure lies without conscience - they only need to follow the pace of the Yinfeng Ling public opinion army, publish some Yinfeng Ling soft articles, or reflect on the institutional problems of Feiyandi Articles like this will do.
The final blow came from the 'Network' from Silver Peak Leader.
Terminal network. This network management system, which originated in Canaan Moore, later spread to the Empire and other places, and finally flourished in the Silver Peak Territory, is the key to the rapid growth of the Silver Peak Territory.
Although other forces are well aware that the real cause of Silver Peak’s rapid development is Ian Silver Peak himself and the legacy of Inaga II, the terminal network does allow Silver Peak to manage it with a very small number of people. With a large population, there is no doubt that this kind of prop to assist management cannot be given up.
The same is true for Feiyandi. In fact, before the Declaration of 777, Feiyandi had already obtained the manufacturing method of the terminal network through various means. They cooperated with the Psychic Mechanism Order, and their technical level in this regard is actually not low.
As time goes by, terminals within Feiyandi gradually begin to proliferate. Although they are still valuable items that can only be used by the middle class, the small watch-type terminal invented by Yin Fengling is cheap, practical, portable, and fast. This accelerated the popularity of terminals within Feiyandi.
This popularity is incredible.
In Feiyandi, many people actually don’t know how the rich and powerful live - just like in remote areas of the empire, many people have lived in poor places all their lives and don’t know how they live. The world they live in is actually the location of a post-apocalyptic end-century civilization. They don't know how big and tall the imperial capital is, nor how majestic the mobile royal court is.
But now, with the popularization of terminal networks, people at the lowest level can also know the lives of other people on the other side of the world.
Soon, half a year after Silver Peak announced nine-year compulsory education, in the late spring of Terra 778, the last wave of public opinion offensive began.
Thanks to the many functions that the pre-era civilization and Canaan Moore have already prepared, Ian can easily create a large number of familiar functions on the original architecture without spending much effort. He can even upload videos like this You can directly use the Heart of Terra as a server. No one can ban it. The main purpose is to share real life.
In just three months, Yinfengling’s video sharing network was launched.
The fishermen of Jingge Cliff and the chefs of Yinfengling. The shamanic rituals in Jiuhan Silent Mountain, the daily life of craftsmen in Gantriggam...
The more unsatisfactory a person's life is, the more he will be stimulated by the lives of others.
The more people know about the possibility, the more angry they will be because of their current complacency.
It is precisely because they know the good deeds of others that the people of Feiyan are calling for reforms in their own government that are getting louder and faster.
At this point, Feiyandi officials, who were making steady improvements, have been completely overwhelmed by negative reviews and criticisms - and they are speechless, because just a few years ago, they were indeed That 'old-era government' that ignores the people's voices, suppresses people's movements, conducts human experiments openly, and buys lives in poor areas.
On the battlefield of public opinion, Feiyandi lost extremely thoroughly.
But in fact, for Ian in his previous life, this kind of public opinion offensive can only be said to be a draw, and there are still many big moves that are useless.
However, just a level A is enough to beat the **** out of Terra's Feiyandi in this era.
"No, if this continues, when Grand Duke Yinfeng comes over and gives a shout-out, at least half of our people here will turn to him!"
Keeping officials quickly noticed the number of immigrants in recent times, and the number of dissatisfied people is also increasing - many people are strongly demanding that tax-free food imports be opened to Yinfeng collar, but if it is really open With this hole, Feiyan Land, at least the Absalom bloodline will really lose its independence.
When all the food was in the hands of others, Feiyandi simply changed its name to a subordinate of the Grand Duchy of Silver Peak, so Absalom could save it. Ian Yinfeng can also have several more titles, and the roll call time can be extended by more than ten seconds.
At this point, even if you know it is a bad choice, you have to make it.
In order to counterattack the increasingly powerful Silver Peak Leader, Feiyandi could only pick up the topics of 'historical contradictions' and 'war hatred' again.
Part of the supported Feiyandi media began to publicize the imperial biological warfare and the damage caused by various special warfare attacks, calling on the people to remember the historical contradictions and not forget the difference between ourselves and the enemy.
But this is fine for dealing with the empire line, but it is a bit inappropriate for dealing with the Silver Peak Leader.
The General Political Bureau of the Silver Peak Territory expressed great disappointment with the hostile propaganda of Feiyan Land. They said that everything is a legacy of history. The empire of the war no longer exists, and the emperor Axel has now abdicated. The Nanling Province, the predecessor of the Silver Peak Grand Duchy, had never taken the initiative to attack Feiyandi, and was even the victim of Feiyandi's attack.
None of them mentioned the food disaster caused by Feiyandi's attack on the Silver Peak Territory and the hatred left over by various biological warfare. May I ask where Feiyandi got the courage to bring up this topic?
On Terra, the Silver Peak Leader makes more sense.
According to convention, a grand duchy with a fifth energy level, or a small force within a large force with a fifth energy level, can be regarded as a relatively independent entity. Nanling was indeed part of the empire before Ian's fifth level. It was normal for the two countries to be attacked during the war, but after Ian's fifth level, everything had to be calculated separately.
Theoretically speaking, King Jhin of the Flying Flame Land has to apologize to Ian, the Silver Peak Prophet, for the loss of Nanling!
"This is too much!"
At this point, let alone the fifth level, even low-level civil servants are going to get angry. King Jhin crushed his terminal on the spot after seeing Silver Peak Leader's response in the terminal text message—— This is not because he has a bad temper, but because as a fifth-level person, when has he ever been so aggrieved?
Fight back? How to fight back? The Yinfeng leaders didn't do anything. They just told the truth and reasoned, helped the Feiyan people find jobs, sold the Feiyan people cheap goods and food, and pointed out some of their trivial practical problems!
Even if the bad news about the Silver Peak Leader is publicized in China, no one thinks it is because no force in this world is perfect. Relatively speaking, the Silver Peak Leader has done a very good job, especially The first batch of children in compulsory education have completed their first semester, all the policies of Yinfeng collar have been successfully completed, and everything is prospering. How can we lose and how can we blame?
Solve your own problems? How to deal with it? There are so many problems in Feiyan Land, including inequality between rich and poor, and overpopulation. Can they be solved in a short time? The promotion channels in Feiyan Land are actually quite good. Ordinary people can also be trained and then become ascendants. The major royal legions even have many designated quotas for civilians, and nobles are not allowed to interfere.
But all of this pales in comparison to the arcane path education for everyone in Silver Peak.
King Jhin is not a fool. On the contrary, he is one of the smartest people in the world.
"That's it."
The dark red eyes looked towards the southeast of the earth, the defense line led by Yinfeng. The man took a deep breath and calmed down: "This is the purpose of Ian Yinfeng... Now that things have happened, I Already lost."
"Your Majesty, we haven't lost yet!" After hearing this, some ministers wanted to step forward to explain, but King Jhin just waved his hand in disgust: "If there is no perpetual motion machine to vote, winning or losing will indeed matter. Between the two choices - the vast majority of Feiyan people do not have the courage, nor the determination, to move with their families just because life is better elsewhere."
"As long as we slowly reform, learn from Yin Feng Ling's approach, popularize the Austrian Way, strengthen the national medical system, and implement compulsory education for all, then within ten years, the people will regain our confidence."
"The public opinion between the two countries is not so simple to completely overwhelm one side. There are too many people who will feel proud just because of the name Feiyandiren. The more the Silver Peak Territory publicizes, the more It will make them want to build this country well."
"But - it's too late."
The reason for everything lies in this. King Jhin slowly stood up.
He is an old man with gray hair but eyes as red as fire. He does not look old, and even has the muscles and face of a man when he is at his strongest. The king, who is wearing a black robe with red edges, said in an unquestionable tone: "The perpetual motion machine will vote, within a year and a half at the fastest," The slowest is within five years."
"Such a long time is enough for another generation to grow up...another generation of people living in the shadow of Silver Peak Collar has grown up."
"At that time, are you more looking forward to the future led by Yinfeng Leader or the future led by us? Even you who support me the most may not be able to make a choice against your will."
"Don't forget, dear friends... our real goal is a perpetual motion machine."
"On this most core goal, we have lost."
How could these ministers not know what King Jin said?
However, they have been completely bound to the interests of the kings of Feiyan for a long time, and there is no possibility of defecting to the Yinfeng leader... Even if they know that they have lost long ago, they have to persist until the last moment.
"But, that boy Yinfeng still gave me one last chance."
Lowering his head and staring at his palm, King Jhin slowly said: "In other words, he did so much to force me to choose this opportunity."
"A decent opportunity."
"The prophet who never fails... the holder of the best public opinion in the world. Haha, he is forcing me step by step, just like trapping prey into a trap, forcing me to use the last resort of civilization... that is It's 'force'!"
At this point, King Jhin even laughed. He clenched his fists, and the invisible flames burned away the luxurious royal robes around him, revealing the armor made of red gold crystals under the royal robes.
"In this world that respects the strong and the strongest, as long as I can come up with a sufficiently feasible future and defeat the Silver Peak Prophet, I can turn defeat into victory!"
"This is what he left me, the last chance."
