There is an allusion to the expensiveness of paper in Luoyang in ancient times, but after Xiao Letian's media station opened fire, it became inevitable that paper would be expensive in London.
The Times started delivering newspapers at four o'clock in the morning, but by six o'clock all the copies for the day had been sold out. The newsboys walking on the street often shouted loudly, which would attract countless people to rush for it.
Urgent printing! The printing company printed an additional 100,000 copies three times in a row, and all of them were sold out. In the end, the editor had no choice but to print a single copy of Leo's article, and this number also sold 100,000 copies.
People all over London studied this war like crazy, and cursed the shameless Russian Empire from morning until the lights came on.
There was no Internet, no radio, no television media... Newspaper publishing in this era was still very backward. It would take two days to publish the Times of that day in all of England, and four to cover the entire France, Germany, Prussia, Austria and other countries. Days of time.
It would take more than six days to cover remote countries such as Crimea, Tsarist Russia, Greece, Egypt, etc.
However, Xiao Letian's battle report broke the fastest media spread at that time. A brick smashed open a pool of smelly water. Originally, the eyes of all Europe were focused on the contradiction between the popularization and the French. As a result, the cold current from the east instantly caused the entire Europe shuddered.
In order to see this wonderful article as early as possible, countless gentlemen and nobles in remote areas sent telegrams to their friends and relatives near London, asking them to use the most advanced telegraphs to send a copy word for word.
No one knew how much the income of the London Telegraph Office had soared at that time. Anyway, it was said that all the telegraph operators who worked overtime were given a large bonus temporarily, and everyone was as happy as if they were celebrating Christmas.
At this moment, Pierre was sitting in Hamburg, and under the protection of the Prussian military, he began to prepare a step-by-step battle plan. Xiao Letian's earnest instructions before leaving emerged in his mind.
"Remember! People are blindly obedient. They will only follow the leader like a flock of sheep, rather than looking for their own way! In a media feast, you have to remember an important point! That is the leader effect! "
"How to make the whole of Europe believe what we say and not what Tsarist Russia says? There is a trick, and the key point lies in the British, because the current empire on which the sun never sets is the leader of Europe, and the people are against the powerful Britain has become psychologically dependent!"
"That's right, my Pierre, you have to think about it carefully! France is already a leader in the fashion industry, the wine industry and the European cuisine industry. Even vinegar, the wine that Parisians love to drink, can cause... Popular throughout Europe!”
"The best French meals and clothing have become a certain standard. What Paris designers and chefs say is an edict, and colleagues across Europe dare not deny it!"
"This is the bellwether effect, and Britain also has the fashion it leads, which is political influence! Yes, the empire on which the sun never sets is powerful, so powerful that no one dares to compete with it. Hundreds of years of boss pressure have made the entire Europe Although I am afraid of him and hate him, subconsciously I still have a blind obedience to Britain!"
"The serious political topics discussed by the gentlemen in London and the wonderful debates in Hyde Park are undoubtedly required topics for European intellectuals and politicians!"
"For a regional conflict, a hot war that has nothing to do with other countries, I have no interest entanglement with myself. I am watching the excitement from the perspective of a bystander... So who should be cheered for and who should be booed?"
"Hahaha... The blindly obedient people will subconsciously look at what the British say! When the wind in London turns one-sided, this wind will coerce subsequent public opinion and make them favor the path chosen by the leader!"
"Anyway, for the Italians, Spanish, Portuguese, Danes, Norwegians, Greeks...these people are just watching the fun and don't mind it, and it doesn't matter who they cheer for...choice Whoever you support is actually just a media feast to vent your saliva!"
"What the people want to enjoy is not true justice, because it doesn't matter who wins or loses between the Chinese and Tsarist Russia. It has nothing to do with them. What they need is to establish the sense of good and evil in their hearts. The opposite, and then just vented his emotions in a sea of curses!"
"We have to guide this emotion and make it work for us, so that we can take advantage of the negotiation table after the war! Because if the mood of most people in Europe is favorable to us, then Tsarist Russia will be at the negotiation table I can only bow my head and admit my guilt!"
"Let the people all over Europe scold that barbaric nation! Let them drown in their saliva! Go Pierre, start a scolding war in the British press and let the national image of Tsarist Russia collapse!"
Whenever he thought of Xiao Letian's instructions before leaving, Pierre's whole body trembled with excitement, especially since the first artillery attack in London was so successful and the people's will actually developed as Xiao Letian speculated. The whole of Europe has already Started calling him crazy.
Only then could he truly feel the power in the chest of the Eastern Head of State. He could set off such a wave a hundred thousand miles away, and the whole world was in his hands. What a terrifying influence this was!
One day, two days, three days... the clarion call to declare war on Tsarist Russia was sounded across Europe, from London, Paris, Amsterdam, Rome, Athens, Berlin... all the way to Moscow.
The entire Tsarist Empire was shocked, and the situation in the Far East was very unfavorable. At this moment, the cavalry regiment reinforcements in Central Asia were still struggling to move forward, and Xiao Letian had already begun to scold the people in European newspapers. One can imagine the anger of the Tsar.
"Oh God! Are these Eastern pagans crazy? How dare they insult my powerful Tsarist Russia like this! Go to hell, all go to hell..."
"Why did Xiao Letian do this? Does he think he is bound to win on the battlefield? No, no, no, it's definitely not like this, it must not be..."
"Hahaha... He is scared! He is deeply frightened when facing the attack of the powerful Cossacks. He knows that he cannot defeat my warriors on the battlefield, so they want to scold the streets in an attempt to win over other Europeans. The pity of the country finally achieves the purpose of diplomatic adjustment!"
"Hahaha... It must be like this, it must be like this, our great Tsarist Russian army is invincible!"
"Fight back, let our editors and writers fight back! I want to buy the full page of all newspapers in Europe, and I want to refute Xiao Letian's lies! I want them to know that the great Tsarist Russia is invincible!"
The hot-headed Alexander II made a very wrong decision.
