Chapter 188 - Touching Porcelain

We're in a very reactive situation right now.

In an unremarkable office, Li Xiang sat in a corner, quietly listening to the discussions of various bigwigs.

This was the first time he participated in an official meeting of the intelligence department after he was formally enlisted and signed a confidentiality agreement. In the past, those elites who had only seen their names in mission reports, and had at most had telephone conversations, were sitting in front of him.

However, at this moment, he was not in any mood to get acquainted with these seniors whom he would contact sooner or later. Instead, he frowned and wrote and drew on paper, recording all the content discussed at the meeting.

In fact, before attending the meeting, he had already vaguely felt that this situation was unusual.

The reason is simple. The offensive launched by the other side in terms of public opinion far exceeds any previous one in terms of professionalism, scale, and frequency.

Even the previous offensive against the J-20B was more of a fad than a complete strategic system.

But this time, the operation of public opinion is not only systematic and planned, but even the shadow of multi-party cooperation can be vaguely seen.

In other words, one's own side is now facing more than one enemy.

The situation is dangerous and difficult to deal with.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sighed, and Hu Likai at the conference table had already continued:

Everyone has basically understood the situation. To put it simply, the other party came prepared this time, and the offensive in public opinion is combined with the offensive in reality.

Just a few days ago, we have received the latest information on the deployment of military forces.

The aircraft carrier is currently moving in the direction of Annan, and the destination is the Annan ship port.

The intention of this action is obvious. It is to support Annan's actions on the sea and support them in their struggle for islands with us.

However, they have no reason to intervene in such disputes, so the offensive of public opinion came into being.

What they created was an image of a perfect victim, telling a story of 'the rights of territorial waters were violated, and they were forced to resist but were severely injured'.

Only under such a story can they find a reason to intervene and rely on military power to suppress us.

We can tell what their intentions are, but the problem is that we have very limited countermeasures at our disposal.

There are two reasons.

First, their starting point is extremely cunning, and it can even be said to be sophistry. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for us to make a counterargument, and it is not well accepted by international public opinion.

Second, we cannot use more decisive means, because they are likely to have prepared for this long ago. As long as we do it, it is equivalent to handing over the handle to them, which will cause even more unfavorable results.

To sum up, I think this incident is the biggest challenge that our public opinion department has encountered since its establishment.

We must brainstorm countermeasures to gradually dispel the opponent's offensive.

Now, I invite everyone to express their opinions. If you have any strategies or predictions, you can put forward them now!

After speaking, Hu Likai looked around, quietly waiting for everyone's answer.

And not long after his words fell, someone in the conference room raised his hand and said:

Can we directly ban specific media from publishing news? The basis is that it violates the management regulations of news organizations?

No. The problem now is that they didn't specify the illegal action. If we use this as a basis, it is actually just an initiative to hand the knife.

What about dealing with relevant personnel at a single point? For non-associated reasons.

No way, this offensive is organized, arresting one or two people will not solve the problem.

Seeing Hu Likai shaking his head constantly, Li Xiang couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Is there really no way out?

If you think about it, this time the other party used all the schemes. Unless one's own side also used schemes to deal with them, all actions would just add fuel to their schemes.

But the problem is that one's own side does not have a conspiracy to compete with the other side

conspiracy

etc.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Li Xiang's mind, and he suddenly thought of a question.

Since it is a conspiracy, what is the biggest weakness?

Cannot be changed!

Once this plan is confirmed, it must be carried out step by step, otherwise, all the actions that have been planned in advance will be in vain.

So, since this is the case, what if we can predict their next move?

Indeed, as Hu Likai said, even if we can predict, there are not many coping strategies.

But what if we do nothing but be one step ahead of them and make public what they are going to do?

This is a public opinion war!

Unlike any other field, its essence is the conflict of information!

Therefore, as long as you get the priority of the information, it is equivalent to locking in the victory in advance!

Thinking of this, Li Xiang immediately raised his hand and said impatiently:

We don't need to compete against them!

No, we don't even need to compete with them at all, all we have to do is publicize what they are doing!

Hearing his words, Hu Likai turned his head and asked:

What do you mean? Tell me specifically?

Li Xiang pondered for a moment, and after organizing his words, he spoke out his judgment in one go.

The people in the conference room nodded repeatedly, and Hu Likai also showed approval on his face.

A very good idea! I think we can try this!

After all, this will not lead to any adverse consequences, and even if it fails, it will not affect the execution of other strategies.

So... the question is, what should we disclose?

What should be disclosed.

Li Xiang frowned.

Make it public that they will cooperate with the aircraft carrier's actions? Open Annan's collusion with them?

No, it's not really a next move.

Or, publicizing other statements they are about to make, anticipating the arguments they will hold?

This does work a bit, but I'm afraid... not strong enough.

For a while, Li Xiang fell into deep thought.

He pondered over and over the articles that the other party had published, and gradually extracted a core point.

No, it is not the so-called objectivity and neutrality.

It's jurisprudence.

That's right, they've been talking about things based on the Fa.

Obviously, this is a foreshadowing.

So with these foreshadowing, what do they want to do?

Law of the Sea. International Law.

court? !

Li Xiang came back to his senses suddenly, and he said:

court!

International Tribunal!

That's right. Just relying on this kind of moral condemnation is not enough for them to intervene in this dispute. They need stronger reasons.

And this reason is international law.

United Nations Convention on the Seas! We should look this up and see what else they have to write about!

While domestic public opinion is changing, the small island far away from the mainland is also experiencing turbulent waves.

Feng Ping and Feng Ru have arrived at Treasure Island as planned, but the island building work has not officially started. During the past two days, they have been busy with equipment unloading, personnel training and so on.

Although sea operations are commonplace for the sailors on this ship, many new sailors are still a little uncomfortable without any land platform as a transfer and no suitable mooring environment.

Fortunately, after two days of emergency training, most people have mastered the essentials, and with the promotion of relevant staff, the morale of the entire fleet has also been greatly improved.

What they have to do now is actually to wait for a time when the sea conditions are better to officially start construction.

Standing on the deck at the bow of the ship, Feng Ping stared deeply at the black clouds on the distant sea, and said to his son beside him:

Look, the sea conditions are likely to be windy and rainy tomorrow.

Unlucky, it's exactly the same as last time.

I don't know if the superior will issue an order to start the work forcefully. Actually, I think it is possible. Our reef dredging boats have been updated and can work without explosives.

If you wait any longer, those monkeys will come and harass you.

Hearing this, Feng Ru looked suspicious.

Will they come? Why do I feel that they are scared of being beaten?

Look, the fishery administration boat is nearby. With such a big boat, how many people are there to fight it?

Also, don't we have other warships here, what are we afraid of doing?

have no idea.

Feng Ping shook his head, as if talking to himself:

What if they just came to our door and asked us to call?

Send it to your door for us to fight? Why?

Play an exhibition game and show it to the Yankees.

Take your own life to perform?

Feng Ru was shocked, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

The monkeys can do this kind of thing. Besides, didn't they kill someone before? I even suspect that they killed that person themselves.

I've been fine for so many days, but I died suddenly. Who will believe me if I tell you?

Feng Ru's face became a little heavy, and he vaguely felt that things were not that simple this time.

And this kind of not simple is even better than what his father experienced back then.

His gaze swept to the sea surface, and at this moment, he suddenly noticed that a small black spot appeared on the sea surface not far away.

A ship is coming!

he shouted.

Feng Ping quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of his finger.

Sure enough, a floating boat was coming towards them.

but

This boat seems a bit too small, doesn't it?

He took out the mobile phone and was about to contact the commander of the island-building fleet, but at this moment, the commander's call came from the mobile phone.

Attention all units, fishing boats from Annan's side have been spotted in the southwest, and their intentions are not yet clear.

Units are exercising restraint and avoiding contact.

If they harass, they will be driven away by Yuzheng No. 2901.

clear.

clear.

Feng Ping replied, while running to the captain's room, summoned all the sailors through the loudspeaker on the ship, put all the available small boats into the sea, and allocated three to four sailors to each small boat, all of them brought the driving force. Spearguns, beacons, and more.

He can be regarded as very familiar with dealing with such conflicts.

The only thing that surprised him was that it was fishermen, not sailors who came?

What are these monkeys up to?

Time passed by, and the small black dot finally revealed the shape of a fishing boat, and more fishing boats followed it and surfaced.

Roughly counting, the number is as many as dozens of ships.

The Yuzheng No. 2901 in the distance has already started to drive away, and the high-pressure water cannon is constantly washing away the nearby fishing boats, but it is obvious that its maneuverability is only a hundred tonnage compared to those, and it is even just a small wooden boat with a motor It's really too weak.

A large number of fishing boats bypassed the obstruction of No. 2901 and headed straight for Treasure Island.

Attention all units, let our boats set off, and don't let those fishing boats approach!

Another call came from the console, and Feng Ping hurriedly let the sailors set off, and he himself and Feng Ru got into the boat and headed for the nearest Annan fishing boat.

His hand was tightly gripping the harpoon, and at this moment he was even ready for a fight.

However, what he didn't expect was that the fishing boat had no intention of confronting him head-on.

A few hundred meters away, it had already turned its direction, as if it wanted to divert away the Chinese ships that were targeting it.

And in this gap, more fishing boats have broken through the blockade that is not tight and does not use thermal weapons.

It's over, they have really learned!

Feng Ping finally saw through the other party's thinking.

They didn't want to interfere with their own fleet at all, nor did they even want to actively cause conflicts.

They are indeed performing.

But what they are performing is not fighting, but playing tricks to death!

Feng Ping couldn't figure out the twists and turns of public opinion, but he could fully figure out that there were definitely many ulterior plots hidden behind this extremely contrasting move.

So he immediately opened his mouth and said:

Quick, quick! Hit it!

Don't let them rush to the sea!

Push it out, don't worry about those who have already come, and stop those ships that are still outside the 12 nautical mile line!

Be careful, don't kill them!

Soon, the results of this large-scale action on the sea were spread to every corner of the world at an alarming speed.

It is reported that the location of the incident is a traditional fishing ground, and there has never been a dispute before.

Currently, reclamation and island building operations are being carried out nearby, and fishermen are prohibited from approaching.

Once the report was released, the already tense public opinion suddenly became more antagonistic.

Even among those who were originally exhaling for relief, some of them secretly had doubts.

They thought to themselves:

Are we really doing something wrong, or are we really too horizontal?
