Chapter 3543: Public opinion war

In the Orumi Federal Management Committee building, the Red Baron sat calmly in his chair and listened to the report of the strategist Marklovsky on the front line.
With his hands crossed, the Red Baron slowly raised his head and said, "I remember the preparatory work. It had already started four months ago. It was originally planned that we should start the offensive at the end of this month.
Now you are telling me to postpone another week, I need a reasonable explanation. "
Maklovsky replied, "Because, now we have to face more than just fighting Kannavia. From a few months ago until now, our supply lines have been attacked and harassed by domestic resistance organizations.
An important transit station we originally planned was destroyed, and a large number of weapons and materials were destroyed. This makes our preparatory work wasted.
And the railway transportation along the way has been being destroyed. This has delayed our progress.
Strangely speaking, the Hammer Resistance Group seems to have grown many times overnight, and has repeatedly organized attacks and harassment of our transportation lines. It's not the same as the little gangsters they used to engage in sabotage and assassination. Even blatantly. "
"Hammer? The members of the resistance organization are simply a mess. The reason they become like this must be supported by someone behind them. Have you found out?" Red Baron asked.
Maklovsky sighed, "I checked, and judging from the current signs, they have received considerable support.
The person behind them is probably Aladdin, because we found out that some of the weapons they used were shipped from Eastern Europe. "
Red Baron said with a slightly displeased expression, "It's him again? I've known for a long time that if this person is not removed, sooner or later, he will become our confidant. Aladdin is a senior figure of the organization, and he is too familiar with us."
"Yeah, I have thought of many ways to get rid of him. But unfortunately, he is not so easy to deal with. Let alone us, even the Grand Duke is a little jealous of him.
To be honest, this old disabled man who is completely paralyzed is indeed a rare and ruthless character. Moreover, he is a former strategist, and the overall strategy of the organization's development in Africa came from him.
He really knows us too well. Since he left us, the assassination against him has never been interrupted, but almost never was successful. "Maklovsky sighed.
"These are not excuses. Even if we don't have any way to deal with Aladdin for the time being, we can still take Canavia first." The Red Baron whispered, "Just like before, we took Anmore."
"It's not exactly the same. We won Anmore because from the overall situation, Anmore is also part of the Federation. We attacked Anmore, which is part of the federal internal affairs.
But Caravia is another matter. They are a sovereign country, although we are under the banner of regional anti-terrorism. The Americans and French are also in a wait-and-see situation.
But some things still have to be scrupulous. This is why we keep creating troubles and accuse them of supporting terrorism. We need a reasonable excuse. "Maklovsky replied. "And now we have. "
"Oh?" The Red Baron looked at him and said.
"The Baron should know that the extremists we have brought in through the joint anti-terrorism operation. It's time to come in handy." Makovsky smiled slightly.
"What are you going to do specifically?" the Red Baron asked.
"These extremist organizations have their own websites and their own propaganda systems. They often develop their members through the Internet. They also often speak out through the media.
I will instruct them to criticize the Orumi Federation and defend Canavia through the websites of these extreme terrorist organizations. It also called on extremists to use Kannavia as a base to launch a new round of jihadist operations against the Orumi Federation and Western countries.
Of course, I will grant them to kidnap and behead some Westerners in public. And issued a declaration on this in support of Canavia.
Let them send these video materials to Al Jazeera TV to create a lot of momentum. In this way, no matter how the Canavia officials deny it, it will not help. "Maklovsky nodded.
"It's really a despicable plan, but despicable plans often work well.
Through public opinion, Kannavia was tied to these extreme terrorists. This creates the image that we are being attacked by terrorism and forced to resist. "The Red Baron sneered, "In this way, Western countries and international public opinion are embarrassed to blame us again?"
Global counter-terrorism is the mainstream value. They don't support us. Do they want to go on the same boat with terrorists? "
Maklovsky nodded, "We live in an information age, and public opinion can sometimes be a weapon. Don't the British and American countries often play public opinion wars?"
"Leave it to you, and speed up the progress. The Grand Duke meant that at the end of this month, we must launch an offensive." The Red Baron whispered.
"Is that what the Grand Duke meant?" Maklovsky was startled.
"Yes, the Grand Duke believes that the Battle of Canavia is extremely important. Whether Canavia can be won will even affect the future development of the secret society organization.
For this reason, he has ordered me to complete his order within four months. "The Red Baron replied.
"What kind of order?" Makovsky whispered.
"At least we must completely defeat the Canavia government forces and control the entire territory of Canavia by armed forces.
The Grand Duke can accept the remaining small-scale armed resistance in some areas. But it will never accept the existence of the Canavian government army as a unit.
After we control the entire territory of Canavia, we will symbolically establish a new government of Canavia to help us control the entire territory of Canavia.
When the time is right, the new Canavia government will announce its membership in the Federation. Become a bridge for the Orumi Federation to enter the Sahara region of West Africa. "The Red Baron replied.
Makovsky nodded, "I will do it immediately. Strengthen logistics and transportation.
In addition, although the road in the mangrove canyon was blocked, it could not be restored in a short time. But we also found a proper alternative, that is, water transportation. "
"Waterway transportation?" The Red Baron frowned.
"Yes, it is transported by waterway to the southwest via the Kampula River. Although the speed of ship transportation is not so fast, it has the characteristics of large volume.
The rivers in Africa have a certain seasonality, and the current rainy season has just passed and the rivers have plenty of water. It is convenient for water transportation. "Maklovsky replied, "I originally planned to finish offensive preparations in two weeks, but now it seems that the Grand Duke can't wait that long. Then start this alternative to land and water transportation.
At most by the end of the month, all kinds of public opinions have already been speculated. We can launch an offensive across the board. "
