#452 - Chapter 452: Back to the Stone Age! Shattered national confidence, public apology!
Inside homes, various appliances, even the switches, all exploded in bursts of electric sparks.
No danger?
It was terrifying!
"Ah… Save me…"
Park Jin-ki, who was 'fighting against the crowd' on a certain Chinese forum after scaling the wall, was crying and screaming in a tearful voice.
The whole house was crackling with electricity.
The computer was directly emitting smoke.
Not long ago, he was triumphantly arguing with everyone, but now he was cowering under the desk like a quail, trembling.
Suddenly!
A yellowish liquid flowed from his trouser leg—incontinence!
He wasn't the only one who lost control.
First, air raid sirens blared, then whether at home or on the street, electric sparks burst everywhere. Believe that at least half of ordinary people would be so scared that they would wet their pants, right? Some even lost control of their bowels.
The entire Seoul was in complete chaos.
Screams everywhere.
Cries everywhere.
People collapsing in fear everywhere, or running around in panic, causing serious stampedes.
Suddenly!
Several transport planes swept across the sky.
Immediately afterward, a large number of leaflets fell from the sky.
"What is that… Is it a North Korean propaganda leaflet?!"
"Quick… Look what it says!"
"Is it a declaration of bombing? Don't kill me… I have elderly parents and young children…"
Fighters cleared the area.
After gaining absolute air supremacy, they used high-frequency pulses to send the entire city directly back to the Stone Age.
Then.
Transport planes began dropping leaflets.
China demanded that North Korea not launch an invasion war for the time being: From China's standpoint, what they wanted to see was not war, but using trouble to hold back North America.
What about North Korea's position?
Having obtained China's electronic warfare pod, they naturally wanted to recover South Korea.
But there was no way…
Why did North America withdraw?
Why did North Korea have an electronic warfare pod?
China was the one making the moves!
North Korea had to be aware that they were just a pawn.
Unable to launch an invasion, North Korea came up with a trick.
A propaganda offensive!
Creating psychological panic to make more South Korean people actively defect to the North.
What is the foundation of a country?
Would South Korea still exist?
Propaganda leaflets fluttered down like snowflakes.
'Notice! South Korea has repeatedly plagiarized Chinese culture. As China's most steadfast ally, this action is a warning!'
'Immediately stop the plagiarism! Otherwise, next time, the entire territory of South Korea will return to the Stone Age!'
'North Korea and South Korea are of the same lineage. All South Korean compatriots are welcome to leave the Stone Age of South Korea and return to the advanced embrace of North Korea!'
North Korea is more advanced than South Korea?
In the past, anyone who said such a thing would be considered crazy.
South Korea was far superior to North Korea in the field of technology and even in the living conditions of the entire population, not even on the same level.
Now it was different!
The capital of South Korea had been returned to the Stone Age.
All electronic equipment had been destroyed, and it was currently much more backward than North Korea.
On the propaganda leaflets.
The first two sentences were acting as China's mouthpiece.
It was a warning!
It was a knock!
It was also to make South Korea see the situation clearly—I can make all of South Korea return to the Stone Age!
The last sentence was North Korea's little thought.
"Why isn't North American Daddy coming to save us?!"
"Idiot! Don't you know that all North American troops withdrew because they were afraid?"
"What… Even North America is afraid?!"
The entire Seoul fell into despair.
At this moment.
National confidence was crushed to pieces!
The former arrogance and conceit had completely vanished.
…
The capital of Egypt.
Cairo.
A special plane from China landed and taxied.
Chen Hao and General Wang, dressed in plain clothes, sat in the corner of the last row of the plane.
Their external identities were insignificant small fries in this Chinese trade delegation.
The leader of the trade delegation was a high-level official from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.
Only he knew General Wang's identity.
The plane hadn't even stopped yet.
Suddenly!
General Wang received a phone call, and after a moment, his face lit up with joy.
He leaned close to Chen Hao's ear: "Good news!"
"From the peninsula?" Chen Hao asked.
"Yes!"
General Wang nodded: "The South Korean president publicly apologized, claiming that Dancheong, ancestral rites at the Jongmyo Shrine, and ritual music, all belong to Chinese culture, and promised to report to UNESCO to cancel the successfully applied projects!"
More than that?
After apologizing to China in front of the public, the president also claimed that South Korea had originated from China since ancient times.
Belonging to the scope of the Chinese cultural circle.
And that in ancient times, multiple dynasties had worshipped China and were vassal states of China.
What did this mean?
North America was useless.
North Korea was eyeing them covetously!
They were forced to curry favor with China, using China to contain North Korea and avoid being invaded by North Korea!
And the consequence of doing so was…
South Korea's national confidence was completely shattered!
But what could he do?
On one side was national confidence completely shattered.
On the other side was being invaded by North Korea, or even completely annexed.
What would you choose?
After the televised apology ended, the South Korean president issued an announcement, immediately setting off to China to discuss cooperation, proposing to establish a… comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership with China!
The peninsula.
Was originally a chessboard for North America to play against China and Tsarist Russia.
But now North America had no ability to control South Korea.
The situation had completely changed!
"Does North Korea have any small moves?" Chen Hao's mind stirred.
"Yes!"
General Wang's voice was lowered to the extreme: "They are using this deterrence to try to absorb the South Korean population!"
"As expected." Chen Hao narrowed his eyes.
Ally?
Brother country?
Give me a break!
There has never been true friendship between countries, only a choice of interests.
"China, the Celestial Dynasty, regardless of past grievances, is willing to open immigration to South Korea!" Chen Hao revealed a cold smile.
"This…"
General Wang was first shocked, then his eyes lit up: "See who South Korea chooses!"
That's right!
Chen Hao's trick was similar to North Korea's.
Seoul had returned to the Stone Age, but after all, there were no war casualties, and most people would not leave.
But!
There would always be a portion of the timid who wanted to leave.
Who to choose?
Smart people could see that North Korea was just a pawn of China, and the real one who forced the withdrawal of North American troops was China, the chess player.
It was self-evident who was stronger, North Korea or China.
The vast majority…
No!
All countries have a mentality of admiring the strong!
South Korea, controlled by North America, had the world's number one mentality of admiring the strong. Faced with a choice between China and North Korea, smart people would definitely choose China.
There were also many people who could not see through it and really thought North Korea was strong.
And those idiots who could not see the truth…
China didn't want idiots!
North Korea wanted them?
Take them!
Since ancient times, China has had a strong ability to assimilate. Anyone who is incorporated into Chinese culture will be subtly recognized, accepted, and become a part of it.
This time, North Korea took the opportunity to make small moves, which was understandable from their standpoint.
But!
Wasn't it also China's opportunity?
"High!"
General Wang was very excited: "I will report it immediately!"
He got up.
Preparing to go to the bathroom to make a call.
"Wait a moment!"
Chen Hao grabbed him and whispered: "These people must be dispersed in various provinces and cities, understand what I mean?"
"Understood!"
General Wang smiled like a fox.
Dispersed.
So that they could be assimilated as soon as possible!
The special plane taxied and gradually came to a stop.
Chen Hao, wearing sunglasses and a mask, walked at the very back with General Wang, like insignificant little nobodies.
"Commander, why are we coming to Egypt?" General Wang's voice was very low, only Chen Hao could hear it.
"To help our Egyptian brothers develop."
"I'm serious!"
"I'm also serious."
Chen Hao revealed a very kind smile.
General Wang helplessly curled his lips.
I believe you, my foot!
