When Yue An came over to talk about this, Ji Xiuyun didn't immediately agree.

This was because when they were fighting outside, they wouldn't interfere with public opinion issues.

The Army's external propaganda outlet was the Military Propaganda Department. Ji Xiuyun didn't care about the Military Propaganda Department. The person who took over this responsibility was Marshal Kevin.

To be more precise, it was Lady Ellie.

The reason why Ji Xiuyun and Marshal Kevin were so famous and popular in the Interstellar was mainly because Lady Ellie, who had been in the entertainment industry for many years, helped them deal with these issues behind the scenes.

Even the person in charge of the Military Propaganda Department specially went to Lady Ellie's office for a period of time and seriously learned from her experience.

Therefore, when Yue An said that he wanted the battlefield to be broadcasted live, Ji Xiuyun was stunned for a moment. He didn't immediately agree, nor did he directly refute.

This matter wasn't in line with the Army's tradition. The Military Propaganda Department and the Empire had reached a consensus on how to handle the war reports.

However, Ji Xiuyun didn't immediately reject Yue An's idea because he knew that Yue An definitely had his own ideas and reasons.

Therefore, Marshal Ji shook his head and said, "This matter isn't under my control."

Then, Marshal Ji helped Yue An, who seemed a little listless, call Marshal Kevin.

Yue An's idea was actually very simple.

Public opinion could be controlled and led.

Before stirring up anti-war sentiment, they could make more preparations and lead people's emotions in the direction of "anti-war" to "anti-chaos".

This method was called conflict shifting.

It wasn't too difficult to shift the conflict from the concept of war to the Free Army.

They could dig up more dirt on the Free Army and interview a few mild-mannered Free Army militiamen. Finally, they could explain why they attacked the 18th Star System. It was because the 18th Star System used to constantly send elite troops to harass the border.

By doing so, the conflict could be shifted to the other side.

After the transfer, not only did the people of the other dozen or so Sintes hate the Free Army, but even the people of the 18th Star System who didn't know the situation and were dissatisfied with their current lives would also push the blame on the Free Army.

Yue An only had this idea. As for how to execute it, it would be left to the professionals.

Although the people of this era had high expectations for the entertainment industry due to their pursuit of freedom and liberation, they were still very serious about official military matters.

Apart from the two Marshal's image marketing, no one, including Lady Ellie, considered using their well-practiced methods of manipulating public opinion on military matters.

The people of this era had a very strong reverence and worship for military power. In their impression, the military's reports about war should be monotonous and indifferent.

No country's media would choose to interfere with their military operations, and this was especially true in the Empire of Sintes, which was constantly reporting great victories.

When Marshal Kevin picked up the call, he happened to be with his wife. Looking at the background, it seemed like they were taking a routine stroll.

Marshal Kevin and Lady Ellie quietly listened to Yue An's idea. Lady Ellie didn't say anything and seemed to be deep in thought. Marshal Kevin asked him, "Son, why do you want to do this?"

Yue An didn't pause for a moment and answered, "Because many young … children will die, or because they will lose their parents and won't be safe and taken care of. No matter how good the welfare of an orphanage is, it can't be compared to parents."

Marshal Kevin and Lady Ellie were stunned for a moment.

The former turned his gaze and looked at Ji Xiuyun.

When Ji Xiuyun's parents were still young, they almost died.

If Marshal Kevin didn't arrive in time, Ji Xiuyun wouldn't have existed.

"Your idea?" Marshal Kevin asked Ji Xiuyun.

Ji Xiuyun shook his head.

Marshal Kevin seemed like he wanted to say something, but Lady Ellie raised her hand and covered his mouth.

Under the gaze of the other three people, Lady Ellie elegantly and reservedly nodded her head and said, "This idea is feasible."

If they could cause chaos within the Free Army or the people of the 18 star systems, then they could indeed prevent most of the casualties and war.

If everything went well, the militia would lead the people to leave the Free Army. When Ji Xiuyun and the others arrived, it wasn't impossible for them to open the city and welcome the army.

Then, the three people and one cat, along with the two heads of the military propaganda department and the Empire's propaganda department, as well as Lady Ellie's PR department, had a three-hour video conference.

After the conference ended, Yue An turned back into a cat with a cat-shaped optical computer hanging around its neck. It didn't show the camera inside, instead, it changed the optical computer to camera mode and walked out of Ji Xiuyun's conference room with its four short legs.

Yue An's mission was very simple. It just had to use the cat's point of view to see everything that happened here. As for the control of public opinion, it was completely up to Lady Ellie and the others to handle.

Ji Xiuyun immediately called the First Army's commander to the conference room.

Yue An's live broadcast had been off for almost three months. When it restarted, the popularity didn't decrease by much.

His channel was still under Ji Xiuyun's social media account, so he had special privileges under the fact that the entire army was forbidden from connecting to the galactic network.

The number of people watching the live broadcast was in the hundreds of millions. Due to the different time zones in different galaxies and planets, there were many people who were slacking off at work, taking a stroll after dinner, or just having nothing to do.

Within three seconds after Yue An opened its channel, a large wave of people flooded in.

The people who flooded in did not see the cat that they had been waiting for. The image was not a holographic projection, it was just a normal image.

They could see a few strands of white fur at the top of the image.

[What's going on?]

[Did Xiao Yu An get the image wrong?]

[Did you turn on the wrong mode …?

Xiao Yu An, meow if you can see it.]

However, Yue An didn't meow.

The snow-white ball of hair squatted in the corner of the ruins, dragging out the settings interface of the optical computer. He stretched out his paw and slowly and painstakingly typed a string of characters under the "pinching claw claw" comment bubbles.

[The world you don't know.]

After typing a sentence, it pressed the confirm button with its paw. This sentence was then attached to the title of the live broadcast room.

[What?]

[Did Xiao Yu An switch to an exploration show?]

[How can a cat do an exploration show? Wake up!]

[Wait, did you guys forget where Yue An is now …]

[？？？

Oh right??]

[Didn't Marshal Ji take it to battle? It's so powerful!]

[Little Kitty's combat power hasn't been shown yet. However, Marshal Kevin's adopted son, who shares the same name as Xiao Yu An, has become very famous recently. He's very good at strategy, and he's good at attacking. Most importantly, he's very good-looking.]

Yue An didn't look sideways. With a few leaps, it nimbly jumped to the top of the ruins.

[Brake, brake!!

F * ck, I'm going to faint. So this is how a cat looks!!]

[I feel like I'm flying.]

[F * ck, did I just see the remains of a mecha …??]

[？？？

Where's Xiao Yu An??]

[You guys … seven hours ago, the Military Propaganda Department announced the great victory. Don't you guys know where Yue An is now?]

[？？？？？]

[Hiss — close contact with the battlefield???]

Yue An jumped to a small platform at the top of the ruins.

Yue An squatted down here.

He wasn't far from the main battlefield. This was a battlefield that had already been cleaned up.

Sitting here, he could clearly overlook the surface, which still had many traces of the war, the busy soldiers and robots, the temporary reception houses and service areas, and the busy and noisy temporary houses of the medical team.

From here, he could intermittently receive the sounds of pain coming from the row of temporary houses of the medical team, as well as the cries of the relatives waiting outside.

There was a steady stream of injured people being transported over. Those with light injuries made way for those who were carried over, while those who were carried over made way for those who were unconscious and covered in blood.

Everything was very orderly. Although it was noisy, there was a sense of unbearable heaviness.

It was evening on this planet, and the fiery red setting sun was burning on the horizon.

Under the setting sun, Yue An's camera lens showed a man wearing a tattered Free Army uniform. He was panicking and holding a young girl who had been pierced by a stray bullet. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was already dead. He frantically rushed to the medical team next to him.

Behind him, there was a regular soldier of the Empire who was shouting the names of his comrades. His uniform was torn in many places, revealing new wounds that were still bleeding.

He used all his strength to slap the remains of the collapsed building in front of him, making a dull sound.

Behind that firm and steady voice, there was a hint of a sobbing tone. He was repeatedly shouting a name, repeatedly warning the other person not to fall asleep.

Further away, there was a figure kneeling on the ground, desperately trying to lift the heavy building material in front of him.

The wind brought with it the sorrowful cries and the smell of blood and fire.

Yue An sat motionlessly on the high ground, quietly recording everything.

The comments bubble in the live broadcast room kept rolling crazily, but Yue An remained indifferent. He sat there quietly, honestly and calmly recording everything.

Yue An's live broadcast went on for 10 whole days.

From collecting the corpses, to comforting and helping the victims, to singing the Requiem and War Song during the funeral, in the following three days, Yue An could occasionally hear the soldiers singing those songs to their deceased relatives or comrades when they passed by some barracks.

In the dead of the night, one could still hear someone softly humming the Requiem Song. Occasionally, there would be a few people who didn't know each other humming along with the song.

Yue An took pictures of all of these.

Occasionally, soldiers, civilians, and even Free Army militiamen would pass by and touch the cat. There were also scenes where they were tired and purposely came to touch the cat to relieve their emotions and fatigue.

The words that these people said to the cat were all recorded without reservation. Of course, when they talked about something private, Yue An would cover their mouths with his paw.

This was a pure, long, complete and absolutely true documentary.

Yue An was a quiet camera cat for 10 days.

The other areas that were not affected by the network restrictions, including the 18 Star Systems and the interstellar areas outside the Empire of Sintes, were unable to calm down.

Anti-war sentiments and demands for peace spread wildly among the media and the public.

Under the concerted efforts of the various media outlets, before the anti-war sentiments of the Empire of Sintes spread, the first thing that the public thought of was not protesting against the military's war.

The first thing that came to their minds was to uncompromisingly protect their country's territory and eliminate the Free Army before talking about peace.

If someone slapped your country's face, you would definitely want your country to slap them back.

On the issue of national sovereignty, the Sintes people, who had been bombarded with hot news and brainwashed over the past 10 days, expressed that they would not compromise at all.

Most of the people in the 18 Star System, under this general trend and the fear of war, chose to protest against the Free Army.

In any case, whether it was the Sintes government or the Free Army, they were not much help to the lives of ordinary civilians.

In a situation where neither side was pleasing and there was no threat, these people would naturally choose freedom and sovereignty. But when their lives were threatened, especially after seeing the tragic situation on the battlefield with their own eyes, fear made them quickly choose to change sides.

Ji Xiuyun promised this time that the new officials sent by the Empire of Sintes would do a good job.

The credibility of Ji Xiuyun's name, even in the entire interstellar, was very high.

This gave them a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

In any case, it could not be worse than it was now.

But no matter what would happen in the future, they wanted to live.

Only by living could they see hope.
