The Fourth Disaster, Starting from the Movie Eight Hundred

This is the instinct of those in power. If you don't even have this instinct, then don't get involved in politics, as you will easily die inexplicably.

Although players want to help cadres make decisions quickly, what cadres see is that the volunteers have infiltrated their eyes and mouths into every corner of the country, and they are all armed with guns. As long as the volunteers have an idea, they can replace the entire Red Party with a single order. Similar things have happened before, and they specifically kill with a list of names.

That’s right, it was the April 12th counter-revolutionary coup.

Before the founding of the country, players had already discussed with the Red Party that the supervisory power and military autonomy would be controlled by the Volunteer Army, forming a new pattern of mutual dependence between the two sides. Tibet, as an area directly under the jurisdiction of the Volunteer Army, is now considered a de facto autonomous region. Although there are Red Party cadres in the local area, they are basically in auxiliary positions and rarely directly intervene in local management affairs.

The only other place is Xinjiang. Although the situation is not as bad as Tibet, the local natural environment is not very friendly to carbon-based organisms. The number of Red Party cadres in the local area is much less than in other regions. Only players can carry out construction in the local area efficiently and send all the counter-revolutionary forces into the sky with tanks. Thus, a semi-autonomous situation similar to an autonomous region was formed. The locals have fully accepted the management model of the Volunteer Army, and the two sides get along very harmoniously.

"In that case, let's stick with the old rules. We'll start with the experimental fields and produce results, and then we can leave other places alone for now."

"Yes, we can wait. When it comes to diligence and integrity, no one can surpass us players. When those areas have a few major problems, we can naturally exercise our supervisory power and carry out large-scale transformation."

"Just do it. Time is on our side. First, do our own thing well, and then the enemy's corpse will float down the river on its own. We must believe in the corrosive power of desire on every cadre."

"'Lun Yu', right? I like this!"

"Since we want to cooperate, it's only natural to bring in the three former liberated areas. Our influence in the local area cannot be replaced by simply replacing a group of cadres."

"I agree, let's do it!"

Just when the domestic farming players were launching a new climax of socialist construction, in the distant North American continent, Japan started their North American expedition. Two divisions of Japanese troops landed in Acapulco in the Pacific direction of Mexico.

Located southwest of Mexico City, this city is connected to the city by a 380-kilometer highway. Built on a natural harbor, it is a coastal city and a major tourist destination on Mexico's Pacific coast. Its history dates back to 1550, and its convenient transportation allows for direct landings into Mexico City.

The United States was not unaware that Mexico was unable to prevent the Japanese landing, but the United States had a long coastline in the Pacific and a comprehensive road and railway system. Even if some places were temporarily inaccessible, roads could be quickly paved through emergency paving to connect to the main roads. The overall difficulty was not high.

But if the United States wants to replicate this level of defense on Mexico's Pacific coast, they have to start by paving the road and then provide Mexico with a large amount of construction resources. In any case, Mexico directly responded to the US request by saying that it has no money. Either the US lends money or the US pays for it. Mexico does not have a penny of its own.

As for the Japanese invasion, you talk as if you Americans have never invaded us and we have long been used to it.

Even if there are pro-American people within the Mexican government, when most Mexicans are in a state of discontent and even to some extent look forward to the Japanese invasion, it would be as difficult for the United States to carry out work in Mexico as it would be to get the Soviet Union to abandon its planned economy.

The two sides did talk, and then stopped at the negotiation stage. To be continued below.

The United States naturally also made some efforts, such as withdrawing a fleet from the Atlantic to try to blockade the Pacific coast of Mexico, but this was a drop in the bucket. The locals did not cooperate, the Japanese had many landing points to choose from, and coupled with the failure of a series of previous battles, the United States is now on the defensive and passive at every step.

The good news now is that the Japanese army has landed in Mexico and the location is certain.

The bad news was that the Mexican army's resistance was almost non-existent. By the time Roosevelt received the news, the Japanese army had already reached Mexico City. Then, less than an hour later, a new battle report came in, and the Japanese army had captured Mexico City.

Damn, this is pure surrender! The Mexican army is completely useless.

No, this speed is even more exaggerated than Denmark's. Is your Mexican army open source?

Thanks to Musk (bushi).

It was rare for Roosevelt to lose his composure at a meeting, and a group of senior American officials cursed him harshly.

Unfortunately, English swear words lack lethality. If a Chinese person used Chinese to swear, the family trees of everyone in Mexico would have flown out of the solar system.

"Let's prepare our troops, we are going to keep the battlefield in Mexico."

Roosevelt immediately grasped the crux of the problem, which was that the war could not break out on American soil.

Given the pressure-bearing capacity of the American federal system, if a war breaks out on the mainland, the losses caused to the southern states will be too great. These former slave states that have been at odds with the federal government during the American Civil War will most likely choose to go beyond the drama of mutual protection between the East, West and South. It cannot even be ruled out that they may directly announce their withdrawal from the federal government and directly join the Japanese army.

Once Japan achieves a positive cycle of fighting to support war on the US mainland, the war will become Japan driving the US South to fight against the US North. Even if the war ultimately ends with the victory of the federal government, the United States will be severely damaged.

Therefore, there is an essential difference between the US's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in Mexico and the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. They were purely for their own safety and forced the battlefield to be pushed outward, while the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea was after North Korea, which was originally about to win, allowed the United States to take advantage of it. Due to the United States's excessive demands, Xinhua had to intervene personally to prevent the situation in East Asia from further deteriorating.

In terms of domestic conflicts, the United States has much greater domestic conflicts than Xinhua because they do not have a central government in the true sense.

Although Roosevelt made the right decision, what he worried about still happened.

In Congress, the southern states of the United States were in high spirits. In addition, the rednecks were known to be brave and warlike and had a higher degree of loyalty to the United States, so they were very enthusiastic about sending troops to Mexico to fight against Japan.

Although the northern states of the United States also expressed support for the president's decision, their enthusiasm was obviously much lower. There were even some dissenting votes in the vote. On the surface, they opposed the tax increase, but in fact they felt that the northern states should not use money to subsidize the southern states.

The good news is that the number of votes against was so small that it would have had no impact at all.

The bad news is that the votes against it demonstrate how difficult it will be for the federal government to get the country on the same page.

Comrades, can you imagine the scene where some representatives express opposition when we recover Taiwan?

If the public knew about this guy's image, he would be beaten to death if he went out. All the cameras and police law enforcement recorders present at the scene indicated that the gas ran out that day. This man was hit by countless fists and feet. He must have choked to death accidentally. It was an accidental suicide.

But no matter what, the American state machine was relatively united at this time. With the help of the southern states, the US military with a total strength of more than 200,000 was quickly organized and crossed the US-Mexico border in a mighty manner, preparing to launch an anti-Japanese war in the Americas.

This US military is a highly mechanized force. There is no infantry in the traditional sense. Soldiers either ride cars, motorcycles, or jeeps, which fully demonstrates the strong industrial strength of the United States.

In addition, Mexico and the United States are connected by railways and highways along the border. In this expedition, the beacon of America will surely shine brightly. What's more, the US military has shouted the slogan of "eliminating Japanese invaders and protecting Mexican sovereignty." Such a righteous army will surely be warmly welcomed by the Mexicans.

But after actually entering Mexican territory, the US military discovered that the actual situation was a little different from what they had judged.

Chapter 185: Want to win once

(First update today! I'm begging for votes, there will be no shortage of updates, good morning, comrades!)

Real World, Mexico

Few people know that Chinese game companies have been making a killing overseas.

The technical content of these game companies is definitely not as good as that of the real big manufacturers. Some of them are simply at the level of web games, or even cruder. However, they respect local customs and are very clear about the importance of serving customers. They fully meet the spiritual needs of local people, so they are very popular.

For example, a domestic game company in Saudi Arabia has released a mobile game specifically to satisfy the Saudis' YY. The Saudis in the game are killing people and dominating the world. They are even more awesome than South Korea in Korean movies. Countless Saudi tycoons are attracted by it at the first sight, and realize their own imperial dreams in the virtual world, and then quickly become addicted and start spending money like crazy.

"I'll take your money, now I'm going to get stronger, I'm going to blast that stinking bitch America to pieces!"

"Hahaha, Iran, oh Iran, will you also surrender to me? Activate infinite 648 mode!"

"I'm the King of the Middle East! For the sake of my empire, I must top up immediately! 648 is too little. Give me one hundred 648 gift packs, and I'll unify the Middle East tonight!"

It is so simple and crude, which shows that players all over the world like cool stories.

By the same token, Mexicans also like exciting stories, and the most exciting story for them in reality is about drug lords trafficking drugs to the United States.

Because drug lords make money from Americans in this way and make the US government uncomfortable, Mexicans are very happy and think that Mexico's drug trafficking to the United States is a patriotic act.

This magical world.

But what is even more tragic is that this is indeed the only way Mexico can effectively retaliate against the United States. What is even more ironic is that it is the CIA that operates these channels.

So, is there something that wouldn't cause too much damage but would still give Mexicans a sense of well-being?

Of course there is, that's computer games.

Mexicans also have their favorite computer games. The GTA series is very popular locally. It is very consistent with the mental state of local Mexicans and allows Mexicans to happily kill Americans in American cities.

It's hard to hold back. Some people like watching Conan because there are Japanese people who die in every episode.

I suggest watching "Japan Sinks" instead.

Not long ago, a magical game called "Defend Mexico" began to circulate on the Mexican Internet.

The game is promoted as "an FPS game that a Mexican game team spent ten years carefully crafting." Players in the game will play the role of Mexican guerrillas hunting down American troops who have invaded Mexico.

The graphics are beautiful, the weapon movements are standard, but the design has a lot of imitations of Battlefield, Call of Duty and Medal of Honor.

Moreover, the plot of this game can be simply summed up in one sentence: "Hello"; there is not even an opening animation, and after the server is launched, the time is synchronized with the real world. Players can just pick up their weapons and start fighting. Although players want practical content, this is a bit too dry.

But none of this matters. The most important thing is that for Mexicans, for those who can access the internet and play this game, this is a game that can help them fight back against the American invaders!

This alone is enough.

"For many countries, defeating a Western power once is already a great victory that they can boast about. In the vast majority of cases, they are the losers in the long river of history."

Liu Qi is well aware of the demand of foreign people for "cool articles". This culture itself is a unique ecological niche and is even a spiritual placebo that the locals need very much.

God bless you, so many foreign people can get excited when watching the anti-French movie shot by the University of Tokyo a long time ago (the "Dragon War" which refers to the Battle of Zhennan Pass). It can be seen that for these countries, winning against the powers is such a precious historical memory. Even if they pursue this illusory victory in the movie, they also want to win for real once.

By the way, this movie has a Douban score of less than seven, but it is quite popular overseas. It has been translated into several languages ​​and even penetrated some countries.

Now Liu Qi has given the Mexicans a chance, this time they can really fight against the Americans through the computer screen.

Compared to the psycho-synced characters of the volunteer players, the character designs of these Mexican players were quite crude. There was no dialogue, no plot, no cutscenes, and even no freedom of exploration. The players were completely treated as expendable on the battlefield. Their only recourse was to use the various crude weapons and equipment provided by the game system to attack the American invaders. Their equipment level was far inferior to that of the volunteer players, and their characters' physical fitness was also inferior. Their only advantage over the volunteer players was that each of them had ten lives.

If this crappy game is released on the international market, people who play it will really hate the United States.

It just so happens that what Mexico lacks the least is people who hate the US government, including drug lords.

Daniel is a Mexican of relatively high status because he can run an Internet cafe in Mexico. Although it requires a lot of management inside and outside, the five words "Mexican Internet cafe" itself is a symbol of strength. Most people do not have the assets and qualifications to open an Internet cafe in the capital of Mexico.

Daniel hated it most when people who were high on drugs came into his internet cafe, because these people were unstable and could easily damage or steal computers. So he chose to pay the gang to help watch the place, and when he saw the guys who were in a trance due to drug use, he would just kick them out. Although the money he paid was more, in a place like Mexico, as long as you could run your own business stably, you had already surpassed more than 90% of the local people.

The Internet access fee in the Internet cafe is priced at 2 to 5 US dollars per hour, which is a rather outrageous price. It is definitely not worth it just to come to the Internet cafe to play games. But today, many people came to Daniel's Internet cafe, and it was soon full. As soon as these people sat down, they started playing the same game, and they were in teams.

At first, Daniel didn't care much, but when he kept hearing the players cheering and more and more internet cafe customers joining the game, Daniel finally couldn't help it and asked a guy who had just logged off, "What are you playing?"

The guy who was asked danced with joy and said excitedly: "'Defense of Mexico', a very sophisticated domestic game, specially designed to fight Americans, don't you know it?"

"'Defense of Mexico', has our country ever been defended?"

"It's definitely not realistic in real life, but it works in the game. This game is awesome, I love it. Unfortunately, my account has already been wiped out today. I have to continue tomorrow!"

After asking several people in a row and getting the same response, Daniel couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he also went to the website, logged into the cloud server, and started "Defending Mexico".

As an Internet cafe owner, Daniel must have played and watched many games. The moment he entered the game, he was amused by the simplicity and directness of the game. It was so simple that it left him speechless. Does this game company dare to be lazy any more?

But soon, Daniel began to get addicted.

Because this scene was enough to make him shout "I can't tell the difference, I really can't tell the difference."

Fortunately, he was just playing the game through the screen, so if his attention was slightly distracted, he would realize that he was addicted to the game. This made him more convinced that this game was a unique domestic game that belonged to Mexico.

The effect of the explosion, the surrounding environment, the splattering blood, the invading American soldiers, everything seemed to be out of control, as if the US army had really invaded Mexico during World War II, and the sons and daughters of Mexico fought back, and even though they knew they were no match for the enemy, they still painted one picture of resistance after another with their blood.

The player characters in the game don't make any sounds with their mouths, but the Mexican players in reality have already had a brain orgasm and spontaneously formed teams to attack the US military.

"We are being suppressed, requesting support!"

"I'll be there soon. Hang in there, bro."

"Damn it! I've been discovered by the Americans. Charge for Mexico!"

"Die, damn Americans, long live Mexico!"

As the ancients said, "In a town of ten households, there must be one loyal and faithful person." Mexico, after all, is a country with a population of 1.3 million, and naturally has its own nationalists, as well as those who simply want to protect their homeland and resent American exploitation and oppression.

A lot of anger is suppressed deep in the hearts of countless ordinary people. They just lack a way to vent. As long as someone leads them out, some people are willing to bite the Americans hard at all costs.

That’s right, “Defense of Mexico” is just a rough shooting game that will be ridiculed by major European and American game companies.

But it is not just a shooting game, it represents another path, another choice, another possibility.

Resist, fail, resist again, fail again, but players can continue to try and fail, continue to resist, until the day when the final victory truly arrives, risking their lives until dawn. -p

One after another, Mexican players sat in front of their computers. They became more and more calm and orderly, willing to do anything to achieve their goals.

To outsiders, this is just meaningless YY in the cyber resistance against the United States, but the changes in people's inner emotions can give the simplest game the most sacred meaning.

The US military on the screen is terrifyingly powerful. They can call for support from tanks and heavy artillery at any time, and bullets are poured over like they are free. It is as if the US military in reality has descended like Zentraedi, and can easily wipe out the Mexican rebels in the game, as if all battles have lost their meaning because the NPC enemies are too powerful.

But more and more Mexican players are holding their breath.

In reality, we are already kneeling in the eighteenth level of hell, but the Americans still won't let us go.

I want to win, I really want to win, a victory over the Americans, even if it’s just once, even if it’s just in the virtual world!

Die, revive, charge, die again, revive again, charge again, consolidate will in failure, reshape spirit in reincarnation, rebuild order in retreat. Gradually, more and more Mexican players began to organize themselves, launching an attack on the US military in the game with a more overwhelming momentum, and began to use various tactics.

A united people is invincible, no matter where they are.

But what these Mexican players don’t know is that the US military in another world has been almost scared insane by these crazy Mexicans.

Chapter 186: Hatred

(The second update is here, thank you all for your votes! There will be a third update later, and I'm also asking for some barrage support~)

Mexicans don't like Americans, but do Americans understand this?

That’s not necessarily the case.

Americans traveling to Mexico will basically see smiling faces unless they leave the tourist cities and go deep into the heart of Mexico. After all, the people who provide services to them have to make money to eat. If you drive away the customers, how can you make money in the future? So even if you have to smile at the door, you have to express your friendliness. You can't go against money.

However, according to the official U.S. propaganda, they brought prosperity to the local people, and the war with Mexico was a just counterattack by the United States, even if it meant taking away half of Mexico's territory.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible to expect Americans to have a detailed understanding of Mexico. The Anglo-Saxon powers never care about the feelings of the weak. Even if they have a serious understanding of it, what can they do? Can they still fight back?

Therefore, the Americans sent troops to Mexico with a completely scrutinizing, arrogant, and condescending attitude.

The crappy Mexico is totally unable to resist the invasion of the Japanese army. Now our glorious and great American army is here to protect you.

This is what the vast majority of Americans think at this time, and this is what almost all American soldiers think.
