Just as the world was focused on the news of Anbei's death.
No one expected that a war that would shake the world would break out.
It happened so fast, it was over before it even began.
The Stone Kingdom was destroyed, beaten like a grandson, and had no power to fight back.
The name of the Dragon and Phoenix Kingdom resounded throughout the world overnight.
A new Middle Eastern hegemon is rising.
With this punch, Dragon Phoenix Pavilion solidly showed Old Mi and the whole world what true strength is!
That's real strength!
In this battle, not a single soldier was lost. From the moment they gained air superiority, the Stone Nation was completely bewildered.
The top leadership was immediately targeted and taken hostage.
Of course, the Dragon and Phoenix Kingdom did not go on a killing spree.
All the people of the Stone People are confined within a walled area of 2 million square kilometers.
This place was originally where Stone imprisoned Canaan, but now the roles have been reversed, and Lin Yu has ordered them to be imprisoned here.
But Lin Yu was kind-hearted and didn't act as ruthlessly as the stone man; he didn't cut off the water or electricity, nor did he bomb the area.
They were simply kept under guard as hostages.
This puts the United States in a very awkward position. With two large ships in the Black Sea, it's caught between a rock and a hard place – whether to fight or not.
Old Lamp convened a council in the white palace. Whether they had diarrhea or couldn't attend, they were all from the Stone People, and at this moment, they all wore mournful faces. Their hometown had been destroyed, what were they going to do?
We absolutely cannot fight. We're currently engaged in conflict on three fronts. The situation in the Xiong Kingdom is raging, and the situation in the Middle East is already tense. Once they get involved, it's impossible for Great Xia to remain inactive. They might even take action against Japan, or even achieve unification and update the map along the way.
Don't be fooled by the US's impressive appearance; it's been quite weak lately. More than half of its ten aircraft carriers are just for show, waiting to be overhauled. In addition, the excessive interest rate hikes have caused its system to collapse at any time. Once it disintegrates, it will be like the Soviet Union, and there will be no future for it.
Therefore, even if he wanted to fight, he was powerless and unable to handle so many battlefields at the same time. Decline was inevitable, and tyranny could never prevail over the way of the king.
However, even a weakened camel will not give up easily. Old Deng used his influence at the United Nations to try to impose sanctions on the Dragon and Phoenix Kingdom.
As expected, it was rejected by both Da Xiong and Da Xia.
At this point, this war is all bark and no bite. It will fade with time and may even be forgotten by the world.
The reason for this is the sheer power of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. If it had dragged on like the Great Bear's protracted war, the outcome would have been unpredictable. But now that the situation is settled, what can anyone do?
Truth exists only within the range of cannon fire; Ai Gong's words contain absolutely no truth!
Lin Yu left the rest to Long Jiu, so he didn't need to worry about it.
No one could have imagined that the mastermind behind this world-shaking battle was a young man from faraway Daxia.
Although the Mi Fang suspected that this matter was most likely related to the Great Xia, they lacked evidence. Without proving the relationship between the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion and the Great Xia, they couldn't offend the Great Xia, and their efforts were futile.
Three days after the battle ended, Japan also made a statement: to stop discharging polluted water.
Why?
The "kill the chicken to scare the monkey" approach has frightened the monkeys! Furthermore, the aircraft carrier stationed at Longfeng Island has remained docked right at Japan's doorstep, making the Japanese extremely uneasy. This recent upheaval in the Middle East has left the Japanese parliament collectively speechless; both right-wing and left-wing elements are trembling with fear.
Is the United States powerful or not? It's a son supported by the US, far more powerful than Japan, its adopted son. Plus, it has nuclear weapons. And yet, it was gone in a day. How long can Japan hold out?
During this time, they also sought support for Lao Deng. Lao Deng also wanted to save face in Japan and planned to send two aircraft carriers over. However, at the same time, four nuclear submarines appeared on the west coast, which scared him so much that he quickly sailed the ship back.
They couldn't afford to mess with them; the US was genuinely backing down this time. It wasn't that they couldn't win if a war broke out, but their three-front strategy would be completely disrupted. Therefore, Japan had no choice but to back down.
In Japan, with the death of its leader, the country was already unstable internally, and now even its "father" the United States is no longer taking care of it. What else can it do but back down?
On the very last day of the warning period issued by Lin Yu, the Japanese abandoned their pride, put their already low knees firmly on the ground, and announced that they would resume dealing with the issue of polluted water discharge.
The announcement was made to the world: first, to stop discharging polluted water; and second, to treat the polluted water and bury it on-site.
This announcement was not surprising, because the Japanese are a nation that bullies the weak and fears the strong, and even their American father is too busy to take care of himself, so what can they do?
However, this time it's a huge loss. Burying it on the spot has several problems. First, there's the cost, not to mention that even with Japan's economic size, they would have to spend at least one-fifth of their GDP on this every year. Second, and most importantly, there's the issue of territory. The island of Fukushima and the surrounding lands are basically being abandoned, given the pollution.
Lin Yu felt no sympathy whatsoever. He had been studying materials on the anti-Japanese war for the past few days. How cruel the Japanese were back then! The blood feud was deep-seated, and this was just the beginning. For such a despicable country to develop such a trivial nuclear power plant was simply digging its own grave.
History teaches us that we must never allow this barbaric people to acquire weapons of mass destruction, otherwise one day they will become the butcher's knife falling on the people of Great Xia!
"Pass on my order: take this opportunity to acquire a large number of Japanese nuclear power plants and infiltrate them with our elites!"
Lin Yu's eyes flickered slightly. "They want to change countries, right? I'll change them first!"
Lin Yu did all of this in the name of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. It had absolutely nothing to do with the Great Xia Dynasty.
The peace of Great Xia is too precious, and Lin Yu does not want the flames of war to spread to Great Xia in the slightest.
But this does not mean that those in higher positions were unaware of his actions.
The Grand Secretary personally made the phone call regarding this matter.
Praise and commendation are indispensable.
But Lin Yu didn't need to, because as a citizen of Great Xia, he was working for himself, not for the higher-ups.
Having power and capital means one cannot be rich and heartless; doing more for the common people is only right and proper.
"The medal cannot be awarded to you publicly! But you did a great job this time, and I thank you on behalf of the people of Great Xia! Once the internal conflicts are completely resolved, I will throw you a celebration banquet!" the Grand Secretary said earnestly.
Lin Yu is no ordinary person; he can read between the lines. Do you think this phone call is a compliment?
The key is these four words: 'internal contradictions'!
This was a reminder to him that he hadn't finished his job as the Imperial Inspector of Eight Prefectures yet!
The Grand Secretary then chatted with him for a few more minutes about finance, healthcare, and other topics.
In fact, Lin Yu also knew that the higher-ups had been making significant moves recently, and that some corrupt officials and traitors in the country had reached a point where they had to be dealt with.
The hardest-hit areas are in the south, especially some developed regions. Places far from the heart of the country are prone to poor blood circulation. With Lin Yu having caused the US a lot of trouble this time and the hostile forces preoccupied with their own problems, it's time to calm down and clean up these chronic issues!
