The Chinese want to squeeze into the respected club of great powers and gain the respect of the established empires. This is a very difficult thing. It is impossible to advance without relying on strong military power, but it is even more impossible to rely on military power alone, because the Chinese No matter how powerful the nation is, it is impossible for them to wage war on the entire Europe.
If Britain and France realize that the Chinese are rising too fast, then they will definitely launch military means to contain it. In other words, it is a hot war. It is not impossible for the Eighty-nine-nation coalition to invade the Chinese.
Such a war is actually inevitable, because keeping China weak and chaotic is the basic national policy that the Western world has always adhered to. Any warm-hearted nonsense is a lie, and everything is controlled by interests.
China continues to grow stronger, so how can they continue to plunder?
Therefore, if Xiao Letian's Chinese people want to survive, they must prepare for war in advance, especially the powerful navy. Even if they fail, they must cripple the invading enemy, fight until both sides are injured, and hit the enemy until the enemy's tendons are injured. Don't dare to do anything again after moving the bones.
The Chinese need a buffer. They need a period of development for a few years after the Far East War to consolidate the army and deploy weapons. Of course, the longer the better, the better the preparations and the higher the discipline for final victory.
How can it be so easy for a weak nation to rise strong? There are already enough bosses on the earth, and the territory has been almost divided up. Who will allow a new boss to come out and grab meat?
Politicians in various European countries are still waiting to watch the war. Due to the backwardness of information transmission technology, even the British Prime Minister does not know the specific war situation in the Far East. Everyone is just analyzing it with incomplete data.
Basically, except for Prussia, no country is optimistic about the Chinese. All politicians believe that Xiao Letian will suffer this time. The war should be resolved in a lose-lose manner, and it is very likely that the Chinese will fail.
After all, Tsarist Russia is considered an old empire, a behemoth worthy of Britain and France joining forces to deal with it, but the Chinese are still too young.
It is precisely based on this calculation that Prime Minister Benjamin, the Emperor of France, and others treated Xiao Letian's media war with an attitude of watching the joke without interfering too much.
If Prime Minister Benjamin wants to intervene, he only needs to give an order to the Times, and the Chinese will not get any sections.
"These ignorant and arrogant kings and politicians are destined to pay the price for their short-sightedness and arrogance!" Prime Minister Bismarck said with a sneer.
"They consider issues based on the premise that the Chinese will lose, but I do not. I analyze current affairs based on the premise that Xiao Letian must win...so I am destined to be smarter and more accurate than them!"
"Dear Carl! Let me tell you the truth, what Xiao Letian is going to do now is to fight against the high ground of public opinion, to show his justice, and then to force public opinion to put pressure on the government!"
"When the news of the violent victory in the Far East comes, when Tsarist Russia has to negotiate with the Chinese, when the diplomatic peace conference is held and envoys from various countries sit together..."
"Hahaha... By then, those politicians will feel the huge pressure from public opinion, and they will not dare to look too ugly!"
Yes, this is the first important task of Xiao Letian's media war, which is to gag!
While you are not optimistic about me, while you think I am a joke, seize the moral high ground of the people first, and firmly stand on the side of the righteous before the war is over.
The people are simple and kind, but at the same time they are stubborn and unwilling to change. Once a certain understanding is formed in their minds, this preconceived notion is actually very difficult to reverse.
Xiao Letian first started a public opinion war in newspapers and pinned the label of war criminal on Tsarist Russia, so that people across Europe could form a unified understanding.
At the diplomatic peace conference after the war, European countries had to hold their noses and admit their own public opinion. They had to first admit the issue of responsibility for the war. This blocked their excuse for shameless intervention.
Prince Carl was also excited, "Yes, yes! You are right. If Xiao Letian doesn't do this, but fights according to tradition, after the violent victory in the Far East, probably the people in Europe will not even know that such a battle was fought over there. There’s a war!”
"In that case, the ignorant people will be like a blank sheet of paper waiting for public opinion to teach them black and white, good and evil, and by that time, politicians across Europe will never allow Xiao Letian to promote himself like this!"
"They will shamelessly tamper with the truth, portray Tsarist Russia as a victim, and portray the Chinese as despicable invaders, and then repeatedly use newspapers to brainwash them. Their only purpose is to create public opinion conditions for military invasion of the Chinese!"
"Yeah! It will definitely be like this. I know the behavior of those people very well. They have no shame at all for profit! As long as they can deceive the people in their own country, they can easily prepare an expeditionary force!"
"The final peace talks between the Chinese and Tsarist Russia must be held in Europe, and representatives from multiple European countries will definitely be sent to observe and mediate!"
"These people will call a deer a horse, insist on claiming that coal is white, and make all kinds of accusations and attacks on the Chinese, and even force the Chinese to withdraw their troops from the Far East and pay war reparations! They can do it..."
"As long as the Chinese don't accept it, they will be able to talk nonsense in front of their own people. In the final analysis, it will give them an excuse to send troops, and at least allow the parliaments of various countries to pass the military plan with a high vote!"
With a muffled bang, Karl hit the table with his iron fist. "Xiao Letian did a great job! Everything has been turned around now. Through this media war, he has preemptively captured the hearts and minds of European people! Then shameless politicians will try to deceive again." But there is no excuse..."
"Want to use troops to carry out military strikes? Hahaha, at least using the war in the Far East as an excuse will not work. They have to find a new excuse, and new excuses are not so easy to find. Once they find and operate them successfully, they have to launch propaganda Receive the support of the majority of the country’s people…”
"Time! Yes, yes...this process cannot be accomplished in a year or two. Isn't this the time Xiao Letian wants!"
Bismarck pinched his beard and smiled, "You finally understand! My dear Karl, now you finally understand what a smart person our eastern ally is!"
"What a respectable man! Fortunately, he is not our enemy, but our ally!"
After the excitement, Prince Carl fell into deep thought again, "But a buffer period of one or two years is not enough! If you want to build a powerful navy, it will not be possible without more than ten years of hard work! There is still not enough time!"
Bismarck smiled, "Of course it's not enough! But do you think Xiao Letian's combination punches are only a little bit like this? Let's see, there will be continuous moves later, and he will force Benjamin to be unable to take action!"
