Chapter 1952 Conflict
"Never complain about having too much food, because there will always be a time when there is not enough food. As for the lack of space to build new large granaries, we can hollow out the Ardennes Mountains. The climate, environment, and temperature here are all most suitable for food storage. We only need to hollow out the mountains and build granaries, and we can store food for the next 200 years."

"Well, when formulating the production plan for next year, increase the livestock industry's target by another 30%. I want to ensure that every city has a large livestock farm, enough to supply every one of our citizens with at least one kilogram of various meat products every day."

"You don't have to worry about the storage problem either. We can build a new natural meat storage center in Antarctica. I will grant you 100 souls to serve as your voluntary porters and directly transfer the meat from the local ice storage to the Antarctic ice storage."

“Can ornamental plants be included in the merit list?”

"This is a matter of course. As people's living standards improve, they naturally have the right to appreciate beauty. So immediately include ornamental plants in the list of merits. Planting ornamental plants can also gain merits. Every one of our people should have a few pots of flowers at home. It's not that they don't have the spending power to do so!"

“Yes, I know the agricultural population has dropped by 12% this year, but this is not a bad thing. Our lovely students have more interesting career directions after learning more professional knowledge, which is a good thing for them. They choose to become farmers only because they did not have more skills when they immigrated here.”

"The discussion at the 17th meeting of the group was very clear. We should vigorously open up various jobs in the arts, service, culture, and entertainment categories to encourage our students to have more diverse life development directions. This is our promise to all students!"

"Don't worry about the output. I guarantee that this year's output can be increased by more than 24%. You know, the industrial development has been progressing year by year in recent years. In the past, we begged the Ministry of Machinery to sell us agricultural machinery, but now the Ministry of Machinery is begging us to purchase agricultural machinery from their inventory. In the future, the mechanization rate can be further improved. Even if 30% of farmers are reduced, I can still ensure that agricultural output will increase."

"In fact, with the development of agricultural technology and mechanization, it is not impossible for a farmer to manage 10 mu of land at the same time. It's just that because we want to ensure that every farmer has a job, we deliberately suppress the progress of mechanization, collective farming and large-scale farming."

“We must always bear in mind the teachings of the World Theory, that is, agriculture will always be the most important industry in the entire world, and agriculture must become the bottom-line industry for the entire world. We are the cornerstone of the entire world!”

The Lord of the Holy World quickly explained his orders to his subordinates one by one. At this time, he had been the Minister of Agriculture for more than two years. The entire Ministry of Agriculture had achieved remarkable results, and the agricultural data had improved year by year. This gave the Lord of the Holy World a very high prestige in the entire East Shengmei government.

"Minister, the commander-in-chief asked me to inform you to go to the conference room immediately. An emergency meeting will be held in ten minutes." The secretary of the Lord of the Holy World came over hurriedly.

"Emergency meeting? What happened?" asked the Lord of the Holy World with a frown.

"It seems to be something happening on the border. A very serious conflict has broken out between us and Xishengmei. The situation is very urgent. If we are not careful, it may develop into a conflict between the two countries!" the secretary said anxiously.

"I understand!" The Lord of the Holy World sighed and followed his secretary to the conference room. Ministers from other major governments also arrived one after another, and the meeting was held directly. First, people from the border management department introduced the situation.

It turned out that this morning, a group of about 2000 illegal immigrants arrived at the border between East and West Saint-Missing. When they climbed over the border wall, they encountered the border patrol of West Saint-Missing. The border patrol ordered the illegal immigrants to turn back, but the illegal immigrants who were climbing over the wall would not agree, and if they went back, they would either spend the rest of their lives in prison or be shot directly, so the illegal immigrants fled even faster.

So the border patrol troops of Western Saint-Missing launched an attack, killing hundreds of illegal immigrants, including many children. There were also many former immigrants in the border patrol troops of Eastern Saint-Missing, who did not dare to take action at first due to border management regulations.

However, after the tragedy of hundreds of deaths, the border troops of East Saint America could not help but take action to block the attack from West Saint America. At the same time, they took the initiative to destroy a section of the border wall, allowing the remaining illegal immigrants to enter the country quickly and provide them with protection.

But such actions undoubtedly destroyed the tacit understanding between the two sides on border management, and also made the border troops of West Saint-Mei very angry. They launched more fierce attacks, resulting in dozens of casualties on the East Saint-Mei side.

The rest of the surrounding border troops immediately came to support, and as a result, the conflict between the two sides on the border intensified. By the time the report was received, both sides already had 10 troops confronting each other, and there were sporadic exchanges of fire. Now the whole situation is on the verge of breaking out, and any slight carelessness will lead to the outbreak of a large-scale conflict on the border between the two sides.

"Everyone, this is the situation. What do you think?" The commander-in-chief rubbed his temple and asked the senior officials.

"Can't we just withdraw our troops?" a senior official asked. "Since the incident happened, I see that the troops of both sides have been very restrained, and the casualties are less than 100. Moreover, the incident started because we tore down their wall. Logically speaking, we are indeed in the wrong. After all, even if they killed people, they were their own people."

"So even though we suffered heavy casualties in this battle, this also gave the other side a way out. As long as we retreat, Xishengmei will not continue to escalate the situation, and this matter will be over!"

"Yes! That makes sense!" Many senior executives nodded. This is indeed the safest way to deal with it.

"But this will hurt the morale of the troops!" said someone from the Ministry of National Defense reluctantly.

"It is better to hurt the soldiers' morale than to hurt their lives. Besides, we are allies with the Holy German World. There is no reason for us to go to war with our allies!" Others retorted, "When the time comes, we will explain the reason to the soldiers. They will understand us!"

"Okay..." The Minister of Defense did not refute anything. After all, he had never thought about really breaking up and going to war with the Holy German World. Just bear with it.

So the Minister of Defense immediately rushed to the front line through the Void Gate and began to control the troops to prepare for retreat. The Lord of the Holy World also returned to his office to deal with his own agricultural problems. However, just one hour later, an emergency meeting was held again and the conflict escalated further.
