The war weariness of the Federalists came from some field documentary films in the early stage of the world war. Some federal journalists went to the forefront of the war with the intention of gambling their lives, interviewed and photographed a large number of materials and sent them back to the Federation.

These war reporters did soon become well-known figures in the whole Federation, but they did not realize that the people of the whole Federation did not realize that it was these real battlefield records that made the federates fear war.

Considering the difficulty of recording films on the battlefield, these films are in the form of silent films. There is no sound from the first frame to the end of the last second.

On TV and in the cinema, people may still laugh and look forward to the pictures of the front line. After all, there has been no war here for a long time, and there is no friction with other countries.

People have long forgotten the cruelty of the war and only remembered the romance that does not exist in the war. A few years before the outbreak of the war, someone made a film that won a grand prize, called "fire beauty", romantic love and romantic war, which left a wrong impression on the two generations of people in the Federation who have not experienced war.

Until these real pictures began to impact people's hearts, people realized that war was not romantic or expected.

Bullets, invisible bullets, like the sickle of death, harvest life randomly and randomly on the battlefield. In the picture, there are soldiers who suddenly vibrate back or raise their head, and the whole person quickly falls down and twitches a few times to become a corpse.

There was no sound of bullets, no scream before death. Looking at some soldiers who were not dead under the lens, they showed a frightening and miserable face and howled silently. Everyone in the Federation changed from excitement, expectation to silence.

Every time it was played, people began to be silent. The cruel war broke everyone's unrealistic fantasies. There was no love, no courage and wisdom. There were only people who executed death and were executed.

One person after another died, with their own people and others. There was a memorable scene. A shell landed next to the field reporter. The lens fell to the ground after a rapid shake, and then some black liquid covered part of the lens.

Then the camera seemed to be picked up, but it fell back to the ground again in shaking. Then a war reporter fell in front of the camera, and several fragments directly penetrated his body.

He knelt on the ground, pouted his ass, and his upper body hung weakly on the ground. This funny picture makes people laugh, because a fresh life is passing away.

He vomited blood in a big mouth, which was a bit like the feeling of nausea. His chest was bulging, and then the blood flowed out of his mouth and nostrils, followed by some more blood foam.

He was not completely dead at this time. He tried to get up straight, but he had no strength. His arms supported the ground several times, but he didn't support his body. His chest fluctuated more and more violently. At last, his body trembled violently, and everything was calm.

When he died, his eyes were staring at the camera, as if he had predicted his final end. What he left to the federates was nothing he might want to show his fearlessness or courage for death, or warn anything. He only left the federates with endless fear.

Everyone is afraid of death. When people watch a federate die on the battlefield and in front of the camera in such a tragic way, people clearly look at the pain, struggle and powerlessness in the last half minute of his life, and the feeling of war weariness erupts in an instant.

You know, before that, the Federation did not consider pursuing an isolation policy. Even the president and the presidential cabinet were still considering standing in line, and they planned to actively join it.

However, this inexplicable and sudden tide of war weariness immediately gave the conservative party a stage to display. They obeyed the people's righteousness, put forward isolationism and won the support of all the people.

Everyone is afraid of death. They are afraid not only of themselves, but also of their relatives and friends dying on the battlefield, just like journalists in the camera.

So when Lynch mentioned the word "war" on such an occasion, the whole hall was almost quiet.

In fact, it is not only the bottom of society that has war weariness, but also the middle and top of society.

Of course, war weariness does not mean that they do not want to contact the international community, which is not the same thing.

Everyone is watching Lynch. Lynch is extraordinarily calm. He doesn't seem to be timid because of the eyes of countless big people.

He smiled calmly and reserved, and stood a little outside the crowd. Sevierella looked at Lynch absently. She didn't know why. At this moment, she saw some shadow of her father from Lynch.

She doesn't know whether this description is right or not, but she feels like this at this time. It's just that Lynch is younger, but his temperament, bearing, his calm, his self-confidence, and even his smile give people a very special feeling.

Let people trust what he says and what he does, feel safe, and feel that he is a person to rely on.

"Economic war?", the gentleman who asked the question before repeated, "this view is very novel and interesting. It seems that we have a good theme in the evening. Mr. Lynch, can you talk about it in detail?"

Lynch nodded to the gentleman again and said yes.

At the same time, he also noticed a small detail. People are making way for this gentleman, which also indicates that he must be a great man, at least with a respectable identity.

"Of course, sir."

"You can call me Truman..."

At this time, Mr. waldrick, who did not know where he came from, walked to a place not far from Lynch and gently reminded, "Mr. Truman is currently a special adviser to the president's cabinet, specializing in the discussion and formulation of international policies."

Lynch nodded his gratitude to Mr. waldrick, special adviser on international policy, which is not an ordinary position.

In fact, Lynch had heard a piece of grapevine news from others before the event these two days. It is said that the president decided to add a new office for the cabinet, which is called the "Office of international policy research".

The work of this office is to study international trends and formulate policies against international trends. It includes not only politics, but also military. In other words, it may not be so eye-catching, but it is definitely a very important department.

Truman is currently the chief executive of this office that has not yet been established, and he is also the policy adviser on international affairs on which his Excellency the president relies most.

As for Lynch, he thought his voice was familiar. In fact, he watched a political talk show with Truman.

In the process of bringing down the old "demon king" President and promoting the new president to power, many people are working hard, and Truman is also involved.

The little interruption lasted less than 30 seconds, and Lynch began to continue to state his point of view.

"I'm a businessman. Sometimes my view of things is different from others."

"Looking at all the countries participating in the world war, I don't know whether others have noticed it, but I found something worthy of my attention, that is, the role and status of money in the war."

"Wealth plays a more important role in the war than we thought. Many people think that as long as there are soldiers in the war, in fact, they also have money, a lot of money."

"I asked some arms dealers and they told me that even a small-scale encounter, even a big victory, may destroy hundreds of thousands of ammunition, and there may be hundreds of thousands of war damage."

"The end of this war, which has affected more than half the world, is not who admits that they are in the wrong position, but some people have no money and can't fight anymore, so they have to surrender!"

"I think war is not only fighting for military strength, but also fighting for the comprehensive strength and wealth of the whole country!"

Lynch's tone increased a little, "especially money. Money plays an extremely important role in war."

"We can have no one, but if we have money, we can hire those who are willing to take risks for money to fight for us!"

"But if we don't have money, even if each of our young men is not afraid of death, all the young men together can't fight a fire company that defends its position!"

"Then can we change our thinking a little? The war is not fought by people, but by money!"

"If our goal is to make some forces surrender like defeat, can we achieve it only through economic war without artillery?"

This view is easily accepted by people. Even if many people here are fools, fools also know that a small-scale encounter that wins will lose hundreds of thousands, so a large-scale battle will cost more.

Many people showed a thoughtful look. They may have noticed this problem before, but they didn't study it in depth or consider it carefully.

Now Lynch suddenly took these things out and said, as if they suddenly realized something they didn't understand.

In particular, Lynch's last few words directly named the core of what he said before. War is money. If you skip the joint of specific people and play money directly, will you?

If we say war, the federals may not be very good, of course, they may be very good. The Federation has not participated in a large-scale group war, and no one knows whether the federal military strength is good or not.

But if you want to play with money, the strength of the Federation is definitely the first in the world!

For a time, Lynch's ideas were implanted into some people's heads, deeply implanted, began to accept the watering of new ideas, and began to take root and sprout!
