Twenty Seven Years

  Chapter 507 Public Opinion War (28)

  December 7, early morning

The Propaganda Department of the International Equality League sorted out a large amount of evidence in the film at an astonishing speed, divided the photos into two parts, and counterattacked them from "the interim government framed the International Equality Alliance" and "the interim government arrested innocent people to make up for it" .

  Newspapers were printed in large batches overnight and spread around the world using fax technology.

   This speed stunned Byron, editor-in-chief of the Laizein Daily, after a day and night of hard work before he was able to draw up part of the response plan.

  Almost the first batch of General Celt who received the newspaper went directly to the President's Office, and sneered and gave the newspaper to President Auston to read: "Mr. President, I saw an interesting joke today."

  President Alston didn't even glance at the newspaper: "I already know about this."

   "I'm sorry, we failed to stop the International League of Equality, and were finally teased by them." General Selt apologized.

"The undercover agents we placed at the main station of the International Equality League were cleaned up last night, and they suffered heavy losses in the end. It can be seen that the International Equality League is far less passive than we imagined. They are very calm and know what It's called waiting for the opportunity." Auston didn't get angry like Celt thought, because he had learned more bad news a few hours earlier than Celt, and predicted what would happen in the future.

   "What..." General Selt was surprised on the surface, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

  The undercover side was hit hard, which is more conducive to his side continuing to deceive the president.

   "Sit down and chat. You came just in time. After reading the newspaper, you should know what will happen." Auston pushed the newspaper back to Celt.

   "You mean... a riot?" General Selt asked tentatively.

"Well." Oston nodded slightly, looking exhausted, "The reports about the prison are absurd and ridiculous, but we can ignore them, but the public is likely to be credulous and deliberately incited. You need to do something about it. Ready enough to deal with it.”

   "Understood." Celt was even more delighted.

  He found that he deliberately brought the newspaper over, and it was quite unnecessary to joke about the unfavorable reports about himself.

  President Auston didn't believe the above content at all, and directly believed that the International Equality League's report on the prison was a means of learning from their deliberate falsification in order to disrupt the stability of Laizein.

  Actually, if he sat in this position, he wouldn't believe that someone would dare to tell a big lie right under his nose.

   Then many things will be easier to do.

   "In addition, please go and inform the leaders of those newspaper offices to come to the meeting, and discuss the most effective solution today."

   "Yes." Celt agreed.

"The last thing." President Auston was very efficient in handling affairs, and he explained everything clearly in just a few minutes, "Expand your results, and you must completely eliminate the Lezein within a week. The power of the International League of Equality."

  General Celt really wanted to fight for more, and extended the time to at least half a month, but he hesitated again and again, and he still bit the bullet and took on this important task that has not made much real progress so far: "Yes."

  Pluman Empire, in a village near Ural City

   "Station Master! Newspaper!" The comrades at the Pluman substation yelled all the way, and immediately handed over the newspaper from the main station to the station master Lynn.

   "How is it?" During this period of time, Lin En, who had suspended his original work and devoted himself to fighting against public opinion, took over the newspaper and read it.

   "With so many real photos published, it is useless for the interim government to argue!" Comrade read the newspapers on the way here, thinking that the interim government must bear the consequences.

  Lin En took a cursory look at the photos, and decided in his heart: "Okay, very good, these photos are the most powerful evidence. In the face of these photos recording their fraudulent scenes, what else can the provisional government say?"

   "Then we also start to act?"

"Of course! The opportunity is right in front of us, why sit idly by?" Lynn held back his breath for a long time, "Notify everyone immediately, and fully devote ourselves to the work of printing newspapers. Get in touch, find a way to get them involved in the story, and get the truth out as far as possible."

  —

  Bash Empire, Winterhold

  Quentin, acting head of the Bash sub-station, is resting with his eyes closed in an unknown room.

   This is one of the backup sites of the Bash branch, and only a few people know of its existence.

He has been in Bash for so long, and he has worked in Laizein's intelligence department for even longer, but he has never been used to being able to handle dangers with ease. Only in a place that is sufficiently concealed in comparison can he obtain a little lack of security sense.

   "Shut up."

  The sound of a key being inserted into the lock came from outside the house. Soon, the key twisted. Stuart, who had come to Bash with him earlier, walked in.

   Quentin didn't even open his eyes.

   Those who have a key, those who choose to use the key to open the door and come in, there are only a few people, and he knows it well.

   "Look." Sitting next to Quentin, Stuart threw several newspapers on him.

   "Finally fought back?" Quentin slowly opened his eyes and read the newspaper.

   "This counterattack is beautiful enough." Stuart commented, "You have to read the newspaper carefully."

   Quentin looked at it and smiled a little: "Have you posted?"

   "As soon as it was passed on, I asked the comrades to operate it. You don't have to worry about it." Stuart said.

   "Is there anything else we are asked to do at the terminus?"

   "No, the most important thing now is to win the battle of public opinion, otherwise we will be notorious in the future and we will not be able to carry out our work."

   "Okay." After reading the newspaper, Quentin stood up, "Let's go."

   "Where to?"

   "Anyway, I can't be idle."

   "I'm different from you. I haven't slept well these days." Stuart still got up and followed.

  Quentin stretched, picked up the coat hanging on the hanger: "Then I have to work harder for you."

  —

  Monrego Empire, Montrego City

   Later, Lopez, who temporarily served as the deputy station chief of the Montrego branch with only a rough personnel framework, managed to get the Equality Newspaper issued by the International Equality League.

  Back in the rented house, he handed the newspaper to Obrador, rubbed his hands coldly and said, "Look, they are starting to fight back."

   "Great!" Obrador flipped through the newspaper.

  De, Yanez, Muskis, and a large group of children gathered around and looked at the large number of photos published above.

   "Sure enough, those people did the trick!"

   "Sure, do you doubt that the International Equality League can do those things?"

   "This group of people is really a jerk! Look, how many innocent people have been tortured in prison!"

   "Let me see, let me see."

  Everyone was arguing, and a newspaper was passed around.

"Now I can finally fight back vigorously. During this period of time, I heard people outside scolding the International Equality League, and I couldn't even eat." The child king Jose was very calm, let the other People read the newspapers, and they stand aside and wait patiently.

   "Yes, rare good news." Lopez touched Jose's head.

   "We have to do something too?" Jose looked up and asked, "So many people in Montregori have been deceived, newspapers are even hard for us to get, let alone them."

"Well, although we are a small number of people, we are the Montrego branch of the International Equality League after all, and we must do what we can." Lopez was about to talk about this matter, "Everyone be quiet, listen to me, The next thing we have to do is to spread the newspaper as much as we can so that more people can know the truth."

  —

  Lezein, outside the prison where innocent people accused of being members of the International Equality League were held

  A large number of people related and unrelated to the detainees came together, which brought great pressure to the prison.

   "Release all innocent citizens! Severely punish the framers!"

   "Release all innocent citizens! Severely punish the framers!"

   "Release all innocent citizens!! Severely punish the framers!!"

  The people were unanimously indignant, and they put pressure on the prison in unison, demanding that the prison immediately release all the people who were arrested in full, and give an explanation to so many people who were executed before and died calling for injustice.

   All the guards were mobilized in the prison to prevent the people from storming the prison due to agitation, and at the same time, they did not forget to seek support from the government troops stationed in Laizein.

  In the prison with the door closed, the deputy warden sat and stood for a while in a hurry, repeating himself.

"Now there are at least 5,000 people outside, and if they really rushed to break in, what should we do? Is it possible to shoot? Shooting can't solve so many people. When the conflict is intensified, they will take the guns and die. It's us..." The deputy warden couldn't help but want to call the government army again, urging them to come over quickly.

   "They can gather here because the secrets of the prison were exposed, and why the secrets of the prison were exposed has something to do with you." The warden, who was sitting quietly, coldly threw all the responsibility to the deputy warden.

The deputy warden stared and stood up abruptly: "Is it something to do with me? That's why I let the reporter in after the newspaper's greeting with the higher-ups! And every time that reporter wants to talk to you, he always I was the one who fooled you, and now you tell me that it has nothing to do with me?!"

  The warden didn't say any more.

"Now is not the time to have conflicts, but this matter is endless! Something really happened, don't even think about leaving alone!" The deputy warden's background is not weak, it's because the warden's words directly tore him apart .

   "What did the government army say?" the warden asked.

"Riots are happening in many places now. They have no time to take care of this side. We need to hold on for a while." The deputy warden replied angrily, "I mean to seek the opinions of the higher authorities, or quickly release people to calm the anger. , or be prepared for them to rush in."

"It's impossible to release people, do you think releasing them will calm their anger?" The warden shook his head slightly, "If you don't think so, you can go to the prison and take a good look at how those people have been tortured. "

  Most of the people in the prison have become ugly due to the environment, hunger, and beatings.

  When the shouts were loud outside, let them see that scene again, I am afraid that the citizens will have the heart to swallow the jailer and the warden alive.

   "Then what should we do? People from the government army will not be able to get through for a while, and the gang outside may break into the prison at any time."

   "As long as General Selt is not stupid, even if his troops are stretched, he will definitely send a team of elite soldiers to guard the safety of the prison. We should not worry about this matter." The warden said.

   "Well, I hope so."

  Outside prison

  The appeal has not been responded to for a long time, and the citizens are getting more and more angry.

   "Release all innocent citizens! Severely punish the framers!"

   "Release all innocent citizens! Severely punish the framers!"

   "Release all innocent citizens!! Severely punish the framers!!"

  A group of guards on the outskirts of the prison looked terrified. They knew very well that once the citizens rushed up desperately, their guns would be of no use at all.

   "They don't want to open the door at all! They want to open it early! Now there is not even half a response, and they obviously don't care what we say!"

   "If we continue to delay, the government forces will definitely come! By then, we will be even less likely to rescue people!"

   "Yes! Now is our best chance! To save them is to save ourselves! We must unite!"

  People who can see the situation clearly speak out one after another.

  Some of the comrades of the International Equality League who were mixed in it also gradually moved to the forefront, ensuring that when a conflict broke out, they would rush to the forefront, kill as many enemies as possible, and reduce the loss of the people.

   Attacking the prison is inevitable.

   This is the most promising chance to rescue the arrested people in the foreseeable period of time.

"boom!"

  Finally, a comrade of the International Equality League resolutely fired a shot at the jailer, and then rushed up, shouting angrily: "Come on! Save people!"

   "Come on!"

   "Get everyone out!"

  Dozens of comrades from the Action Team of the International Equality Alliance took the lead and greeted the jailer.

  When the other thousands of people saw this, they also let out earth-shattering cries, and pressed down on the prison.

  The jailers, who just wanted to eat, and didn't intend to lose their lives for the prison, fled towards the prison in unison without any thought of resistance.

   "Open the door! Open the door!"

   "The citizens are rioting! Let us in!"

  The jailers slapped the gate, but the guards inside did not make any sign under the orders of the deputy warden.

   Soon, the people engulfed the jailer outside, and those who snatched guns from the jailer poured bullets into the prison indiscriminately.

   "Boom!"

   "Boom!"

   "Boom!"

  The door was shaken by the impact, and the jailer inside was holding a gun, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

  The deputy warden who came forward to control the situation saw his hairs stand on end.

  The speed of the people's attack far exceeded his expectations, and the promotion of the International Equality Alliance Action Team was indispensable.

  But the government army is so busy that it is still unknown when they will come over.

   "Hold on! Hold on!" He suppressed the fear in his heart, raised his gun and said, "If we can't hold on, we will all die!"
