The experience of Gao Fei and Medellin is probably just a small microcosm, but in a larger dimension, this confrontation with a sharp start and a slash also caused an uproar.

The Ugly Kingdom naturally claims to be the one who defeated it, and such a saying has also gained a certain market. However, most countries, especially those that are already in a swing neutral position, are not, and are unwilling to be blind.

The three major aircraft carrier fleets gathered the first island chain and then retreated in shame just 11 hours after the confrontation began?

Do you dare to say that you won this?

That probably really treats all countries as fools.

Some countries have begun to make choices slowly, including the island country represented by Hiroshi Yamamura.

Just a month ago, they were negotiating with the Ugly Kingdom to let the other party take over the defense of the entire island country, thereby serving as a springboard to achieve the upgrade of the Self-Defense Force. However, a month later, they suddenly terminated the process.

The Chou Kingdom faces unprecedented pressure on the base of the island country. This pressure not only comes from public opinion deliberately indulging by the island country officials, but also includes the demolition of a series of original security facilities, the cancellation of security measures, and the difficulties caused by various forces.

After July 1, most bases in the island country began to lose their fresh vegetables.

Even if it can be delivered, it will cost a lot of money and a lot of relationships to clear it.

The lower-level officers did not understand what was going on. The messages they received only told them that this was because of the influence of xx, but for the upper-level officers, the reason for this situation was obvious.

Yokosuka Port, the USS Reagan aircraft carrier formation.

The commander-in-chief of the fleet frowned and looked at the thick stack of complaint reports in front of him and asked:

"Why has the problem not been solved yet? Do they really want to rebel? We can't do China or them? How dare they not be afraid?"

The logistics support officer on the side sighed slightly and replied:

"In the current situation, we really have no way to deal with them."

"As far as we know, they had already made a choice long before we evacuated -- they had already made a choice after the f35c crashed."

“We learned from our internal informants that they monitored our dynamics after we entered radio silence and conveyed our possible direction of navigation to our opponents through certain channels.”

"Although this information is not that critical, it shows an attitude."

"According to the Chinese, this is a 'vote of fame', which means that they will no longer follow us in the future."

“So, in this case, especially when we are already showing weakness, it is very normal for them to start organizing actions to exclude us.”

“In fact, it’s not just them, but in many regions around the world, we are already under pressure like this.”

"It's okay at those bases far away from China. After all, they are out of reach, but in the island country... we really have no choice. We can't have another confrontation, right?"

“…… Why can’t it?”

The commander-in-chief of the fleet waved his hand irritably. In fact, he was very clear about the answer to his rhetorical question, but he just wanted to ask it, as if the answer would change after it was asked.

The logistics officer noticed his expression and shook his head without saying anything.

The two were silent for a moment, but in the end, the logistics officer spoke first:

"It is impossible now that we consider how to change this status quo. What we really need to consider is how to maintain our influence as much as possible under this status quo."

"These bases cannot be abandoned, and the island countries cannot be too determined. We can still stay here."

"But the question is, how do we stay here better."

"The first thing to solve is the problem of eating--we can't always eat canned food, right?"

Hearing this, the expression of the commander-in-chief of the fleet became even more annoyed.

He never expected that as the commander-in-chief of the strongest power on the sea, he would have such a day to discuss such a topic in person.

Dining problem.

This is ridiculous, but it is also realistic.

After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"Okay, then let's think about it from scratch."

"Just treat it as if we were here on the first day."

...

Kyoto, in a low house.

Several senior officials in suits and ties sat together, with sake in front of them.

Their faces were full of anticipation. Of course, this expectation was mixed with helplessness of compromise, but overall, the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

One of the men picked up the wine glass and spoke:

"Everyone, from today on, we will enter a new history."

"The object we attached to before had lost his power, and now we are about to board a larger ship."

"Of course, we had a huge conflict with the crew of this ship, but we also successfully regained the trust of each other - although it was only very, very primary."

"In the future, we will continue to strengthen this trust and bind our interests with their interests."

"You guys, don't feel humiliated. This is just a temporary strategy when we have not yet become strong. One day, we will grow into warriors who can kill dragons. At that time, we will pull out our samurai sword and face the giant dragon."

"----Of course, the time has not yet come, and we still need to please the dragon, chase his leftovers, and grow at any cost."

"So everyone, work hard, drink this glass of wine and take this difficult step."

"Drinke together!"

Everyone said in unison, and then they raised the cup in their hands.

....

While they drank the light drink with a degree of no more than 20, all aspects of the island country were also quietly changing.

In a printing factory specializing in printing textbooks, workers received the latest version of the sample magazine for elementary school students' textbooks. One of them opened it curiously, and the content on it shocked him.

A large number of official background accounts appeared on the Internet, and the first message they posted after their birth was to congratulate the Oriental Dragon on a happy holiday.

Within the enterprise, all senior staff were gathered to reiterate certain top-down policies. After these policies were downgraded one by one, the final result was an increase in wages for specific groups.

Among major TV stations, there have been a lot of broadcasts about certain events. The most obvious thing is that a sports channel has started to broadcast repeatedly, "The Evil Tiger of the Empire" and a special interview report.

The changes in banks and financial enterprises are even more huge. Under the guidance of policies, they began to flock to certain industries that they had never looked down upon, and these industries are often facing shortages of funds. As for shares? This seems not to be the focus of their attention.

In the patent field, a dedicated group has been formed and will be heading to the other side of the sea to attend a high-level seminar, where they will decide on the strategies for patent exchange and licensing.

...

Among them, the most inconspicuous but most eye-catching change is the notice issued by the shrine.

The same notice was posted not only on the Internet, but also on major newspapers and on the periphery of the shrine.

The content of the notice is very simple, with only two short lines:

Due to fire safety, structural aging and other reasons, some areas of the shrine are temporarily closed and will no longer be open to any tourists, groups, or individuals.
