General Hassan was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "Think about it, this is indeed a very difficult problem. And if they do this, we have almost no better countermeasures."

"Yeah, once the secret society takes over Sebayella, the situation will be extremely unfavorable for us." General Quinn could no longer sit still, he got up and left his seat and paced back and forth.

Some other high-ranking officers also discussed each other.

"Perhaps I have a way." Actuary Jiangi suddenly said.

"Let's talk about it." Lin Rui looked at him and said.

"We preemptively occupy Saibayera before the secret society is armed, and eliminate the terrorists there. Just as we did before." The actuary replied.

"However, Sebayela has gathered more than four thousand enemy troops. It may not be an easy task to seize it before the secret society is armed.

In my opinion, it will not be completed within two or three days, and the Orumi Federal Forces may have arrived before then.

They don't care if we are the first to launch the offensive, they will almost certainly muddy the water. And we have no valid reason to stop them. General Hassan shook his head.

"Yes, we will not be able to capture Saibaila within three days. Once our forces are limited, only a few thousand people can be put into the Saibaila fight.

Secondly, a few days is really too short, we are not sure that we can win Saibayela in such a short time. "General Quinn also shook his head to express his opposition.

"Actually, we have already occupied Saibayela now." The actuarial magistrate said in a serious manner.

"What? When did it happen?" General Quinn was surprised.

"Just now-of course I'm just bragging." The actuary added Kishi. The angry General Quinn returned to his seat.

"Don't underestimate the so-called bragging. It involves a very high level of knowledge, news and public opinion wars." The actuary replied.

"Public opinion war?" General Quinn looked at him.

The actuary Jiangan nodded, "In the Iraq War, the United States and Iran once used the powerful influence of the news media on public opinion to start an unprecedented war of news and public opinion in the history of human warfare.

The hostile parties use the principles of journalism and communication to fight in the field of news and public opinion, attacking the morale of the hostile citizens in spirit and will, and the news media has become another battlefield interdependent with military strikes.

The position of news and public opinion warfare in information warfare has begun to become prominent.

In the history of human warfare, the role of news and public opinion has long been recognized by people. Napoleon once said: a newspaper, the U.S. Allied Forces; former US President Eisenhower also said: spending one dollar on propaganda is equivalent to spending five dollars on national defense.

With the advent of the information age and the rapid development of the mass media industry, news and public opinion have become participants and facilitators of the war.

If the radio taught people about the Second World War,

TV documentaries changed Americans' views on the Vietnam War, while the Iraq War allowed people to directly participate in the process of the war through live broadcasts.

Don't underestimate this, everyone. In fact, this is a method often used by secret agencies. This time is no exception.

For example, before launching the operation, they hyped up and declared that they would organize a huge counterattack campaign. Completely eradicate terrorist forces in Western Sahara.

This is helping them build momentum and successfully guided public opinion. Now if any of us wants to stop them, it seems that we are obstructing the anti-terrorism cause in Western Sahara. "

"It's true. Sometimes the secret society organization plays this hand really well." General Quinn nodded.

"But there is no absolute, we can reverse it. They can use news to exaggerate facts and enhance their sense of existence.

We can also use fake news to disrupt the other side with fake news. "The actuary Jang Ki suddenly smiled.

"How?" General Quinn asked quickly.

"Hold a press conference to declare that we had already won Sebayela two hours ago.

At present, Sebayela still has small-scale resistance forces, and the public security situation is quite unstable, but most areas have been controlled by our side. "The actuary replied Jiangshi.

"Isn't this nonsense?" General Quinn was taken aback. "When have we already occupied Saibaila? Still talking about this in front of the news media?"

"Yes. All the media, all the media we can find, have to help us promote this. This is indeed a fake news!

But we urgently need this fake news, which is a strategic need. "The actuary Jiangan is decisive and authentic.

"I probably understand what you mean." General Hassan frowned slightly. "You are asking us to publish fake news, claiming that Saibayela is in our control.

As a result, the Orumi Federation forces would have no reasonable reason to attack Sebayela. Because we have publicly declared that terrorists no longer exist and have been eliminated by us. Now it is the Saibayela under our control.

If they still decide to take military action against Sebayela. Then it means that their target is not terrorists, but us.

When the time comes, the people the media will denounce will not be us, but them. "

"That's right." The actuary replied. "They used the means of public opinion war with us first. Then we will deal with them in the same way."

"But when a press conference was held, a large number of reporters gathered, and we didn't actually occupy Saibayera, how could we be convincing?" General Quinn shook his head.

"We will issue information, relevant video photos, and some timely evidence showing that Saibayera has been occupied by us. Of course, all of this is forged.

On the other hand, we must step up our offensive and launch an attack on Saibayela. Of course, externally, we are only purging the remaining terrorist forces in Sebayela.

This can also be added to the press conference. Although Saibayera is already under our control, the situation is extremely unstable and there are many hidden terrorists.

Our counter-terrorism forces are in the process of searching and suppressing the city.

Therefore, the press conference cannot be held there temporarily. Also consider the safety of reporters. "

"Intentionally bragging, is it also a tactical method now?" General Quinn was a little helpless.

"General, if you understand the ancient Chinese war culture, you won't say such a thing.

Distorting facts, deliberately exaggerating, and causing wrong perceptions and judgments to the enemy have always been part of the war strategy. "Lin Rui smiled slightly.
