C1844 He was about to start cursing! (1/2)

That was the beginning of the curse!

What is the foundation of victory in war? Was it a powerful army? A well-equipped weapon? Is it a wise general or is it a sufficient amount of logistics?

These were all necessary, but the most fundamental and essential question was still what the ancient Chinese people said about the people's hearts. It was a question of organization, preparation, action, conflict … Until the postwar negotiations, in such a large system of engineering, public opinion had always played a key role.

In the eyes of the people, people's hearts were always suppressed by power. This point was especially obvious in the Middle Ages, in the law of the jungle, the victor had the right to interpret everything, while the loser could only passively accept it.

But people often neglect one point, when you can overwhelmingly defeat the opponent without any suspense, of course you can temporarily neglect the public's desire, but encounter two strong opponents? What about the entangled stalemate?

Or could it be two tigers fighting over territory, but there was a group of lions eyeing them covetously? This situation had become complicated. At this moment, what seemed to be the heart of the people had become a key factor in victory.

For example, the war between the Chinese and Russian tribes in the Far Eastern Region might seem like a war between two races, but there were too many major countries involved in it, and even the America across the Bering Strait had been paying close attention to the war.

Xiao Letian was a person who was good at taking advantage of chaotic situations. He could not let go of such a good opportunity to fight in public opinion.

The information that Pierre had brought along was also a set of plans of action that had been hidden in his mind, the fuse of the media wars that spanned two whole years, 1869 and 1870. After escaping from death, he finally started the entire plan in hamburger.

The relationship between Britain and Russia was not that good to begin with. A Crimean War war had caused both sides to lose decorum, and with the addition of the fact that Russia had been unwilling to become a land-based power, it had been looking for a warm water port to break through the enclave of the British Ocean for a long time.

In Crimea, in the Central Asia's Afghanistan region, including in the Far East of the Qing Empire, the expansion plan for Russia had always had a very clear goal. That was the Warm Water Port, which was the huge benefit of the sea trade.

There were a few analysts who thought that Britain had temporarily cooperated with Russia and seized a few ammunition ships for Xiao Letian. They thought that Britain had changed their national policy towards Russia.

The only reason why he helped Russia was because the rise of the Chinese people was too fast and too dazzling, so he needed to restrain himself.

If the Chinese were too strong, they would attack the Chinese. If the war between Russia and China became too big, the British would support the Chinese as well.

It was a balancing act, not a national fundamental strategy.

The citizens did not understand the balance of the game among the politicians. The nobles, gentlemen, and farmers, in their hearts, still did not have a good impression of Shao Ao, that polar bear. After the victory of the Crimean War, the pride of the British had reached the skies.

This was the crack in the egg, this was the breakthrough point of Xiao Letian's plan. He wanted to instigate a war between European media, so he could not make too many enemies in one go.

The first article Pierre brought back was published in the Thames newspaper. The British media people were so excited that they felt that it was a holiday. They paid close attention to the number of copies of the latest newspaper.

As long as this article became popular, the sales would definitely be higher. The higher the sales, the more people liked to read it, and if they liked to read it, they would have to report it in depth, excavating all the value of this hotspot's wealth.

The Golden Brush Lei Ao was indeed extraordinary. He had thrown out the massacre at the Great Qingdao Gold Mine at the beginning of the story, and showed the brutal rule of the Sand Country towards the aboriginals in the Far East to the public.
