"...Excuse me! The latest news, the latest news from the South China Sea..."
"...The Battle of Brunei Bay is over, it's over..."
The newsboy selling newspapers on the streets of London shouted and ran wildly, and the surrounding citizens crowded around him, "Give me a copy, give me a copy..."
People outside the crowd who couldn't squeeze in shouted, "How was the result of the battle? Why did you say half a story...How was the result of the battle..."
Even though he is young when reading newspapers, he has high experience! In terms of sales skills, I am afraid that no one in the future will be able to match them. The newsboys have long known that everyone is waiting for the latest battle report of the Asian war. Their curiosity is already high. Can I tell you in vain?
I just shouted that the naval battle is over. As for whether you buy it or not, that’s your business!
Don't worry about money at this time. The hundreds of newspapers carried by the newspaper boy were sold out in a short time. The running newspaper boy, sweating profusely, continued to replenish supplies despite the pattering of light snow.
The crowd watching the newspaper suddenly fell silent, but within just three minutes there was a chorus of exclamations!
"Oh God! It's incredible, the Spanish navy has been wiped out!"
"Oh God! The naval battle only lasted five hours from the first shot to the end of the battle!"
"The entire Spanish fleet surrendered, and even the commander and sailors were captured!"
"How is this possible, how was this fought...wait, there will be detailed reports later!"
Immediately afterwards, people fell into silence again. Everyone stared at the newspapers without saying a word. These were the people who had newspapers, and those who had not bought newspapers and could not squeeze in were anxious.
"Damn it, where are those little newsboys? Why haven't they come back yet? I want to buy newspapers..."
Curiosity can not only kill the cat, but it can also cost you your money! Throughout the day, the sales of London's major newspapers soared 60% compared to usual. The heels of the little newsboy's boots were broken.
Of course you don't have to buy it and share it with you after others have read it, but gentlemen always want to save face. Do they have to prove to others that they can't even buy a newspaper?
Not to mention, they were so curious that they couldn't stand the uncomfortable feeling of waiting. They not only wanted to get a result of the Brunei naval battle, but also understood the process.
This is genuine news. There is so much information between the lines!
Superstitious legends are ultimately unreliable. Only after people carefully study all the genuine information can they suddenly realize it!
"What a beautiful and smart fight! Of course it also proves the stupidity of the Spaniards!"
"This sneak attack by the Spaniards was too hasty. They did not do a good job of investigating the military situation before. They did not know the specific troop deployment in Brunei Bay at all..."
"Is it arrogant to dive into the enemy without knowing anything about it? This is stupidity!"
"A fish mine! I didn't expect that a water mine could be transformed in this way. The original weapon used in the Crimean War has become such a powerful killing weapon after a few modifications!"
"Not only the Crimean War, but also the American Civil War, there were such examples... But I never expected that the Chinese would have such a brilliant record!"
Britain was founded on its navy. The foundation of all their strength lies on the ocean. They pay great attention to the development of the navy and study every naval battle!
These people respect the strong and humbly study the successful experience of each battle. When the specific information about the Brunei naval battle was sent to Europe, the British Royal Navy held a meeting overnight and continued more than a hundred battles in the following six months. Practical exercises.
Years later, when retired Gladstone began to write his memoirs, he once declassified some of the shocking judgments made by the Royal Navy about Xiao Letian at that time.
"There is no doubt that Xiao Letian is a subversive strategic master. This person is destined to be as famous as Alexander, Caesar, Hannibal, Napoleon and others in history!"
"In the long course of history, these people are among the unparalleled strategic masters, and everything they do is subversive and revolutionary!"
"These people are born with a keen intuition and a god-like vision. They can always find the right direction for future development!"
"In the Battle of East Frisia, the design structure of the Zhiyuan was finally set to the Zhiyuan era. This design idea of arranging firepower on a central axis and rotating the turret at a large angle, with heavy firepower and heavy defense, became the programmatic design plan for the ironclad era! "
"The history of naval shipbuilding before the appearance of the Zhiyuan is called the pre-Zhiyuan era, and the subsequent years of building warships in full accordance with the ideas prescribed by the head of state are called the post-Zhiyuan era..."
"Xiao Letian's hands can divide two eras. From this point of view, the significance of the existence of that little Zhiyuan is even greater than that of a combined fleet of our Royal Navy!"
"Xiao Letian not only laid the standard for the Zhiyuan era, but also advanced the development of torpedo technology and tactics with practical actions. This brilliant victory in Brunei Bay directly affected naval investment in the 20th century!"
"Countless poor and weak countries began to frantically build torpedo boats, and even the defeated France joined them!"
The British really know their stuff, and their navy's sense of smell is too keen. From this day on, the entire British Royal Navy established a separate intelligence department specifically to spy on all the secrets of the head of state.
Every step of the development of the Chinese navy has become a top priority for the British!
The military and political circles only saw the details, while the citizens saw the excitement. When the details of the Battle of Brunei Bay were repeatedly discussed, someone suddenly spoke up.
"Wait... didn't the Spaniards say that the head of state was lying before? Now that so many Spanish prisoners have been captured in Brunei Bay, even the battleships have been captured, what do they say!"
"That's right! It's not just the Chinese war reports. There are many European businessmen in Southeast Asia. They won't lie! There is circumstantial evidence in the newspapers! The Chinese produced circumstantial evidence from the American captain!"
"These Spaniards are really lying! It seems that the Dragon Fish is the work of the Spaniards! How shameless..."
The people are still simple and kind-hearted. When they discover the truth, they can no longer stop talking!
The British already looked down on you, Spain. The Armada was also a thorn in the side of the British back then! Although I am victorious now, the long-lasting memories are still there.
Look at the Chinese people, how respectful they are to the Queen in the UK. The head of state engages in charity activities when he has nothing to do, and the Chinese Food Week is even more mouth-watering!
By the way, there is also the dreamlike art of Chinese painting. The whole city is filled with strange landscapes of landscape paintings!
Coupled with the newspaper's series of Oriental reports that lasted for several years, this has implanted a deep-rooted memory in the hearts of a generation of British people!
When mentioning the Chinese people, positive messages such as mystery, long history, delicious food, beautiful scenery, kindness, amiability, etc. will immediately pop up in their subconscious mind!
Of course, this information was all consciously instilled by Xiao Letian!
And what about Spain? Negative messages such as the Armada, naval battles, killings, battles, competitors, etc. will pop up in the minds of the British people!
The human mind is influenced by the subconscious mind, and this influence will lead to different choices in a certain event!
"The Spaniards are all liars! They are all liars! How shameless, taking advantage of others' danger and stabbing them in the back! It is a complete violation of international law!"
"Scold them! Condemn them!"
