Agriculture Maniac

Chapter 568 Who's the real troublemaker?

Current public opinion in North America will not change the Pentagon's strategy, much less influence the behavior of big capitalists.

If the issue is handled calmly and some time passes before another event occurs, the current public opinion will naturally dissipate.

Therefore, Bush is not worried at all about the current hot topics in North America, including the protests.

What worries them is that the mastermind behind the scenes was able to bring the two major groups in North America, anti-war and pro-war, to a consensus in just two days, and successfully push military enthusiasts to go to Mexico to fight, which shows that the other party's strength is not to be underestimated.

Upon closer examination, it is highly likely that the purpose of this move was to disrupt the Southern Republican faction's military power plans.

Just like military enthusiasts.

They come from the US-Mexico border states; some are workers, some are business owners, and some are students. In reality, they are all civilians and belong to the labor force.

They saw the satellite screenshots and thought the scenes looked cool, but they didn't realize how cruel war was and how a large influx of people into Mexico would inevitably result in heavy casualties.

At that time, the mastermind will manipulate public opinion to incite hatred, pushing fathers to avenge their sons and sons to avenge their fathers, sending more laborers to the battlefield, and creating panic in the US-Mexico border states, forcing a large number of people to migrate north...

These two actions will significantly reduce the population of the US-Mexico border states.

In order to restart production, the border states between the United States and Mexico will inevitably need to recruit similar employees from the northern industrial areas, both during and after the war.

The northern industrial area is Morgan's territory. The employees who come from there have parents, wives and children in the north. They go to the south to work, or even join the army in the south. Two years later, the Southern Republican faction will be sidelined and completely lose its voice.

The Brooks family will also be suppressed by the Morgan family and gradually disappear.

Therefore, the mastermind behind it all is not Yu Sanyuan, but old Morgan.

Considering the issues in the brain-computer interface market, and further deduction, the specific process of this event should be:
Yu Sanyuan anticipated that the Morgan Group would take the initiative to visit him in order to enter the brain-computer interface market.

In order to watch the spectacle and to express their willingness to cooperate with Morgan, the other party casually threw out a trigger that could strike at the Brooks family, namely, the exposure of Google screenshots.

Morgan's advisors immediately understood and secretly took the opportunity to manipulate public opinion, inducing military enthusiasts in the US-Mexico border states to enter Mexico as supplies, thereby reducing the Southern population, and then using this as a means to export people, capital and other resources to the South, ultimately winning the Civil War again.

But old Morgan clearly didn't expect that Yu Sanyuan was a real troublemaker.

The other side's current demands on federal capital are not about who is stronger or weaker, nor about who can control North America.

Instead, it was a balance between Old Brooks, Old Smith, and Old Morgan.

Because only by achieving equilibrium can more severe internal friction be generated within federal capital.

Just like now.

If the Bush family wants to stop military enthusiasts, they will have to pay a huge price, including paying benefits to Japan, using funds from the regular army, and spending money and food on the border blockade.

If Old Smith doesn't want to face Old Morgan alone, he needs to protect the Brooks family by providing them with funds, weapons, and personnel.

If J.P. Morgan wants to suppress the Brooks and Smith families, he will need to use more resources and funds…

It can be said that the three parties have fallen into this state because of a few screenshots of Google Maps, and the irreconcilable conflict between the old and new classes has further exacerbated their differences.

At this point, who is the happiest?
It must be Xu Sanyuan who went to Latin America to dig for resources.

Look at their faces, they're grinning like a weasel that just stole a chicken.

"It would be best to draw another batch of reserves from the Japanese islands to protect our regular troops."

Old Bu finished speaking with a worried expression, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yu Sanyuan is not letting us have an easy time, so we can't let him be idle. We should urge the Japanese islands to strengthen their offensive, and it would be best if we could airdrop more troops into Guatemala and other places."

"Yes!"

...

next to.

Old Smith, upon receiving the news, had almost the exact same idea as Old Brooks.

They really couldn't just sit and wait for the Brooks family to be brought down by Morgan, and then face Morgan alone.

Therefore, they immediately contacted the California National Guard, ordering them to travel south and, through Wall Street, inject capital into the Bush family's military-industrial enterprises.

···
Upon receiving the message, Welch glanced at Old Brooks and Old Smith, then looked at Yu Sanyuan, who was showing off his golf skills to the caddie, and finally understood who the troublemaker really was.

But as Bush sent the elite troops of the Northern Republican faction to the front lines in Mexico, the internal contradictions within the federal capital have intensified.

If the Morgan financial group does not retaliate, the loss of military power will cause it to lose its current position. Therefore, it has no choice but to take action and weaken Old Brooks and Old Smith.

However, this is something that Morgan Sr. needs to consider.

Welch's current priorities, besides reporting his speculations about Mexican public opinion to J.P. Morgan, are solely focused on dealing with the brain-computer interface market.

···
Los Angeles, California.

Influenced by public opinion, citizens, apart from viewing the Mexican battlefield through satellite maps, currently perceive the Mexican war as nothing more than "So cool," "I want to take a selfie," "I want to bring back the wrecked tanks," and "With my marksmanship, I could kill at least ten Southeast Asians when I get to the front lines."
The factors contributing to this phenomenon are: first, neoliberal democracy; second, information monopoly; third, an illiteracy rate as high as 30% or even higher; and fourth, the media's dissemination of the idea that "going to war guarantees a North American visa."

So, in addition to military enthusiasts, more and more young people with dark skin are gathering in groups of three or five, rapping, and stealing cars to drive on the road.

Against this backdrop.

Shili Mall launched a series of activities.

For example, if you buy 5 cases - 45 bottles of Scream or Roar, you will receive a free tactical vest.

For example, if you collect 200 special shell casings for spiral magazines, you will receive a helmet of the same style as the three series.

For example, the Red & Black Group launched a digital cemetery - electronic resurrection.

For a one-time payment of $2, users can have their families contact and chat with them (the AI) anytime, anywhere for up to ten years after their death.

For example, the Red & Black Group launched a digital cemetery - VR tomb sweeping service.

For an annual fee of $299, after a user is killed, their family can view their remains online, and sending virtual rockets can trigger a massive barrage of fire.

For example, the 'fallen currency' launched by the Red and Black Group.

Users register for the service for free. After being eliminated, the system automatically generates a cryptocurrency containing user information, elimination date, elimination location, elimination reason, and elimination highlight photo.

Family members of users can receive a 150% cashback after using this currency to handle a full range of funeral services at the Red and Black Group. Of course, the cashback is in the currency itself; by trading the "fallen currency," real money can be earned as long as someone buys it.

However, there's no need to worry about a lack of buyers, because as long as the user's family is willing, the Red and Black Group will personally recycle the goods according to its own stated '150% cashback'.

Of course, if an outsider offers 180%, 280%, or even 880%, the user's family members can receive even more cashback.

Another example is the 'vision sharing' service launched by three drone manufacturers.

Any owner of a three-system terminal can pay $199 online to view nearby enemy and friendly drones on the three-system map and gain 5 minutes of drone vision.

Yes, even if it's a drone from the Combined Fleet Command, as long as you're nearby, you can still get a view and observe the Combined Fleet Commander after paying.

And the 'brain-computer interface service' personally launched by Sanyuan Hi-Tech.

Any user who signs this agreement will have their 'voluntary brain-computer interface installation clause' automatically activated if captured on the battlefield, in accordance with the agreement's terms.

Subsequently, the captured users will receive a brain-computer interface and can then use VR live streaming rewards, VR-NPCs, VR online customers, and other jobs to redeem themselves.

Even if captured clients are unfortunately disabled due to the war, they can still earn money for prosthetics through the above work, then redeem themselves and return to society.

In short, the three systems do not exploit the poor.

While the above services are outrageous, people in North America do really enjoy them.

In less than two days, whether out of curiosity or genuine need, each service sold hundreds of millions of dollars.

at last.

Agriculture 3.0 has also joined the fray.

The Agriculture 3.0 online marketplace has been updated, adding a new 'Faction' module.

The module features a map of Mexico, with the northern Mexican camp on the left and the southern Mexican camp on the right, and the troop strength and weapon deployment of both sides are marked on it.

On both sides of the module, there are also a series of bullets, shells, missiles, and other projectiles...

For example, the left side of North Mexico.

Pay $50 online to buy 10 boxes of American bullets, select an area on a map of North Mexico, pay the shipping fee, and the American bullets will be sent to the front lines, fulfilling your dream of serving your country. Alternatively, pay $150,000 online to buy a single 3-series missile, select an area on a map of South Mexico, pay the launch fee, and the missile will be sent to South Mexico—no charge if it doesn't explode.

Alternatively, you could pay $500 million online to purchase Javelin short-to-medium-range missiles, select an area on a map of southern Mexico, pay the launch fee, and with a one in ten thousand chance of success, you could take down the southern Mexican command center.

Even more surprisingly, there's a special insurance policy for Javelin missiles – after paying $500 million online, if the missile doesn't explode upon landing, the insured can enjoy a second missile at half price, and if it still doesn't explode, the third one is completely free.

The same principle applies.

You can purchase weapons from the weapon list on the right side of Nanmo to help Nanmo, or directly attack Beimo.

In addition, at the bottom of the faction module, there is a solemn declaration from Agriculture 3.0: Our company will never cheat or deceive; we will receive money one second and ship the goods the next, with the entire process broadcast live by satellite.

Perhaps this is an exaggeration, or perhaps it's just too much curiosity.

Three minutes after the faction module went live.

An Indian user in the Southern Mexican faction of the Combined Fleet, which is the Northern Mexican faction of North America and Japan, fired 20 missiles of all three systems in a row.

Immediately afterwards, two Cuban users in the Southern Mexico camp of the Joint Fleet, and the Northern Mexico camp of North America and Japan, dispatched 10 J-14 fighter jets, each carrying 10x12 three-system air-to-ground high-explosive bombs.

As it turns out, Agriculture 3.0 was not based on any deception.

The moment the payment was successful, missiles launched and fighter jets took off…

The Northern Mo camp, which was bombed, erupted on the spot.

Military enthusiasts, in particular, wondered, "If we can't get into Mexico, can't we at least launch rockets?"

Thus, the Northern Mo camp unleashed a barrage of attacks on the Southern Mo.

As for Agriculture 3.0, there are no missiles or fighter jets in northern Mexico, so how can the missiles purchased by users be deployed to southern Mexico...?

Combined Fleet: "I'll blow myself up!"

Therefore, with the massive accumulation of US dollars, Northern Mo successfully blocked Southern Mo's offensive and began to organize a counterattack.

However, the main force of the counterattack was the Japanese Self-Defense Forces/reserve forces.

...

Central Mexico, León city - eastern suburbs.

Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, Eastern Army (from the Kanto region).

Japan cannot simply send all its active-duty troops to Mexico just because Old Bu gave them more, especially with Yu Sanyuan eyeing the neighboring Vladivostok.

Therefore, when the 1st Division assembled on the Japanese islands, it secretly replaced two-thirds of its main force.

Some are active duty personnel, and some are reserve personnel.

After the airborne disaster, the reserve forces sent to reinforce Japan were mixed with a large number of police officers and gang members.

The reason for this is simply that the Japanese wanted to train their troops, but were also worried about the annihilation of their entire army.

However, this move also resulted in the Japanese Self-Defense Forces being unable to organize a counterattack under the intense and fierce firepower from West Africa, and they almost lost their positions several times.

So much so that the commander of the 4th Mechanized Division in North America, who was in charge of the 'Eastern Suburbs Theater,' angrily cursed the commander of the 1st Division on the Japanese islands: "You sons of bitches, are you here for a picnic?"

When the Pentagon also raised questions, the commander of the 1st Division immediately ordered a counterattack at all costs.

Early morning on July 2th.

Two brigades, four infantry regiments, and one mixed regiment of the 1st Division of the Japanese Self-Defense Force, supported by F-4EJ Phantom II fighters, F-15J fighters, and D-2A/B support aircraft, along with Type 74 main battle tanks adapted to rugged terrain and Type 90 main battle tanks, launched an assault on the 8th Army Corps in West Africa.

The main West African army's equipment mostly comes from the Ice Bears.

Some were official dumping, some were oligopolistic dumping, and some were simply "imported by buying scrap metal".

Like a scrap metal T-72.

After upgrades and improvements, it is now named T-90 Pro Max.

It is equipped with a three-system combat platform, an electromagnetic interference system, ternary building material explosive armor, and a ternary high-tech 125mm smoothbore gun.

The artillery and shells produced by Sanyuan High-Tech are affected by plastic-based high-energy explosive particles, and their actual power is equivalent to 140mm or even 150mm.

Therefore, when the three-system graphite electromagnetic pulse bomb is launched.

The Japanese fighter jets, which were on guard, quickly withdrew.

The moment when the Type 90 and Type 74 tanks of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army were directly exposed to more than fifty T-90 Pro Max tanks.

A counter-offensive with overwhelming firepower suddenly erupted on the eastern suburbs battlefield.

With each shot fired by the T-90 Pro Max, a Type 74 medium tank was overturned, thrown into the air, or blasted three meters into the air.

Even the Type 90 heavy tank had its turret ripped off, its drive wheels knocked off, or its gun barrel bent by a blown-out shell.

at the same time.

The charging 1st Division of the Japanese Army, before receiving news of the complete annihilation of the Japanese armored forces, encountered the main force of the 8th Army Corps in West Africa.

A dense swarm of dark-faced men, armed with spiral-guns and carrying small-caliber mortars, charged forward in groups of three or nine.

In the blink of an eye, the 1st Division's defensive line was breached by four or five times the number of West African troops.

The commander of the 1st Division personally rushed to the front of the trench and shouted, "Banzai!"

“Onboard!!!”

Unfortunately, war is not about shouting slogans.

In less than half an hour, the 1st Division was swallowed up by the black torrent of the West African 8th Corps.

...

the other side.

golf course.

While secretly observing the three people's reactions, Yu Yang chatted with the caddie.

"A college graduate turned out to be a caddie?"

"There's no other way. I graduated from Dongshan Sports Institute and can't pursue a competitive career path, so I have to find another way out. I originally planned to take the teacher's exam or become a coach in a sports venue, but I got a job as a caddie. Plus, the salary is very good, and I occasionally get tips from VIPs, so I'm content with the status quo."

“I’m not surprised by your education and profession, I’m just curious and asking casually. In my opinion, as long as the salary meets your needs, passion is the most important thing… I once had an employee who also graduated with a bachelor’s degree, majoring in materials and chemistry. After joining the company, he voluntarily went to the septic tank.”

"Digging latrines?"

"This is a technical job. After collecting the manure, it needs to be composted for a period of time before it can be sent to the plastic greenhouse as organic fertilizer and then applied to the organic green vegetables."

Yu Yang recalled, "This employee was not afraid of hardship, dirt, or fatigue. He spent every day at the sewage treatment plant. After two years of training, his nose could easily distinguish the composition and type of sewage. In his spare time, based on his professional knowledge, he successfully extracted fecal extract and transformed it into a food additive."

"???"

"Yes, fecal extract is a flavoring extracted from feces and used to enhance the flavor of jasmine tea, chewing gum, beverages, etc. The current market value is about 30 to 40 billion Hong Kong dollars."

"."

"What I'm saying is that the grandfather on the banknote is right. Don't look down on any profession. Even a sanitation worker makes a huge contribution to the development of the city. And you, even if you're a caddie, might become a golf master."

"You're overly flattering."

At this time.

Old Bu seemed to have received some news again, and stormed over angrily, "Yu, your damn Agriculture 3.0 must be removed from the faction module!"

"I earn money through my own abilities, why should I take it down?"

"You're causing trouble!"

"Yeah, after all, I'm a troublemaker."
