As countries that are not parties to the parties, the news media of Germany and the United States have reported on the battle in the Taiwan Strait more from their own standpoint.

Germany [Rheinische Zeitung] The editorial said that the failure of the Far East Expeditionary Force symbolized the formal end of Britain's hegemony for more than 200 years, and that the Royal Navy was no longer an invincible maritime power, and that what the East China government could do, other countries could also do.

The Berliner Zeitung published an article saying that in the Battle of the Taiwan Strait, there were many battleships, armored cruisers, and protective cruisers made by Germany in the People's Army Navy, or that Germany sent technicians to assist the East China Government. These warships performed very well in this battle, including the Battle of Tsushima and the Battle of the Natuna Islands, which is the basic guarantee for the victory of the East China Government, which shows that Germany's shipbuilding capacity has reached the world's leading level, which is Germany's pride.

The Washington Post of the United States published a long commentary, holding that the battle in the Taiwan Strait means that the Far East War, which lasted nearly three years, will end with a complete victory for the East China Government. The East China government has not only gained huge geostrategic benefits from the war, but is also very likely to receive a huge amount of war reparations after the end of the war, plus the vast territory of Northeast China that it has obtained, so a new power is suddenly rising on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, although this power has had a good relationship with the United States before, but it will inevitably pose a serious challenge to the interests of the United States in Asia, and the United States must make measures and plans to deal with it as soon as possible.

The Liberty Beacon newspaper believes that although the East China government is not yet a formal country, after winning the Far East War, there is little power that can stop this political bloc, which has only been in existence for six years, from replacing the old, decaying, backward, and weak empire as the new master of this country with a territory of more than 10 million square kilometers and a long coastline. And this change will not be too long, it will be completed in the next 5-10 years. This country already has a huge population and abundant resources, and under the rule of a new and powerful leader, it will inevitably become a regional power with both land and sea, which will inevitably completely change the power structure of the entire Far East, and will also inevitably challenge all countries with interests in the Far East, including the United States, and in this great change, the United States will certainly be ready to meet this challenge.

Of course, the liveliest public opinion was still in China; the day after the victory in the Battle of the Taiwan Strait, the East China Government issued a declaration declaring victory, and of course it once again affirmed the great and righteous image of the East China Government in safeguarding national sovereignty and territory, resisting foreign aggression, and seizing the moral high ground; at the same time, it severely rebuked the Qing court and some Chinese for not only failing to support the East China Government in this battle, but colluding with foreign forces to interfere with the East China Government, restrain them, and erect obstacles to the traitorous acts of the East China Government. The manifesto raised the question of why the government of East China was able to defeat foreign invaders repeatedly, while the Qing court was repeatedly defeated by foreign countries. He also said that starting the next day, a series of long articles will be published for six consecutive days to answer this question.

This was also planned by the East China Government before the war, and it took the opportunity of this great victory to carry out a comprehensive public opinion guidance, and six long articles in six days not only elaborated on the East China Government's efforts to safeguard national sovereignty and protect national sovereignty to the outside world since the establishment of the East China Government. The territory protects overseas Chinese; the land reform is carried out internally to benefit the peasants and realize social fairness and justice; the new style of education is opened, the people's wisdom is broadened, and high-quality personnel are cultivated and the people are used to the best of their ability; the modern industry is actively developed, the country is rejuvenated by colonization, tremendous economic achievements have been made, and the living standards of the people under the rule of the East China Government have been greatly improved, and so on.

On the other hand, a series of numerical comparisons are also enumerated, including the comparison of the socio-economic and people's livelihood indicators of Shandong before and after the establishment of the East China Government; there is also a comparison of the socio-economic and people's livelihood indicators of Shandong and other provinces after the establishment of the East China Government; and a series of comparisons of indicators between the East China Government and the Qing court, which are detailed, clear, and definite, and far more convincing than empty speeches; the East China government's civilized, civilized, efficient, and enterprising government is in sharp contrast to the Qing court's conservatism, ignorance, bottom-levelness, and backwardness.

He also counted the fact that since the traverser landed, he wanted to serve the country, but the Qing court ignored the traverser's great achievement in saving the country, suppressed, interfered with, and restrained the traverser, forcing the traverser and the Qing court to break with each other and establish the East China government, which was divided into one side, not bound by the Qing court, and did its own thing; however, the Qing court set up all kinds of obstacles to the East China government for its own selfishness, and even did not hesitate to collude with foreign forces to obstruct the development of the traverser's governance, and so on. This is to completely scandalize, dwarf, and blacken the Qing court, and further make the Qing court completely lose its moral advantage as the current legitimate ruler of China.

Finally, he listed all kinds of administrative matters of the Qing court since the Opium War, pointing out that the Qing court was the biggest obstacle to China's progress towards civilization, modernity, wealth, and strength, and that as long as the Qing court existed, China could not really become strong, so the East China government believed that it was necessary to completely overthrow the Qing court and establish a new China, and only in this way could China completely get rid of the fetters and move towards a rich and strong civilization.

Although the East China government has completely broken with the Qing court, and everyone knows that the East China government will replace the Qing court, everyone is unclear about these and will not say it. This time, it was the East China government that officially and openly put forward the political proposition of overthrowing the Qing court and establishing a new China.

After the publication of these seven long articles, it did cause a great sensation in China, because the East China government already has a high prestige and credibility in China. Originally, the Qing court did suppress the momentum of the East China government a little bit by borrowing the matter of the expeditionary force, because in terms of the ranking of the strength of the great powers, Britain and France were definitely in the top two, and Japan and Russia had to stand in the back. However, the East China government insisted on offending these two powerful countries, provoking them to jointly send troops to fight China, which really made many people disgusted with the East China government and turned from pink to black.

However, the East China government really competed to defeat the expeditionary fleet, you must know that this is the world's strongest and second strongest army, not comparable to the Japanese and Russian armies, not to mention the symbolic dispatch of troops to the Eight-Nation Alliance, but the elite fleet sent from the mainland, the result is still defeated by the East China government, the huge contrast suddenly caused a strong rebound in the support of the East China government, and the momentum naturally rose higher. Not only did the people who had turned black turn back into fans, but a large number of people who were originally indifferent to the East China government turned to support the East China government, after all, except for a very small number of people, there are no people who do not want their country to be strong. Although the East China Government is not yet a country, it is not a matter of powder or black, and everyone agrees that the East China Government is a part of the Chinese nation, and even a considerable number of people who are indifferent to the East China Government have joined the ranks of supporting the East China Government.

And the seven series of long articles pushed an emotion to the peak, because now the East China government is at the forefront of public opinion, of course, how to say how reasonable, not to mention that the Qing court's actions are really not enough, plus in the past few decades, the Qing court has indeed not done a few things that can be compatible, so the series of long articles overthrew the Qing court and established a new China, which has aroused the resonance of many people, who are young people, and the older people only sighed when they saw it, and said: "Heaven is evil, it is forgivable, self-inflicted, and you can't live." ”

Subsequently, the East China government collected these seven series of long articles, plus more than 30 other articles published before, into a volume and published it under the title of "Seven Days Talks". The first edition of 30,000 copies sold out in less than 10 days, and was later reprinted twice in a row, with a total of more than 100,000 copies.

During this period, a large number of people from all over the country almost every day, mainly young people, defected to the East China Government in order to pursue national independence and national prosperity. Although some people have also reminded that among these defectors, there may be hidden spies from the Qing court or other countries, but after discussion, the East China government still decided not to refuse those who came, and accepted all of them, after all, as long as management, supervision, and education are strengthened, even if there are spies, there is no need to be afraid, and Bi Jing will not be able to make much waves in the face of the general trend of the world.

In addition, the East China Government proposed to Germany that it would intervene in the relations between the East China Government and the Netherlands, and the German Government was very interested in this role and soon expressed its willingness to assume the role of mediator. Now Germany is at the peak of its national strength, the world's first industrial strength, the world's second largest economic strength, and has a strong armed armament, so it began to pursue an international status that matches its own strength, to be a big country with a strong voice, to be able to make its own voice heard in international affairs, for which Germany did not hesitate to provoke the Monaco crisis last year.

The Far East War has now become the focus of international attention, and if Germany can mediate between the East China government and the Netherlands and bring about a peace agreement between the two sides, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance Germany's international status, and the mediation will not be in vain, once the mediation is successful, Germany will certainly demand compensation from the East China government and the Netherlands, and the goal is to obtain a port and colony in the Far East. Moreover, Germany could not only mediate between the East China government and the Netherlands, but also between the East China government and Russia, and take the opportunity to break up the Franco-Russian alliance and draw Russia into the framework of the Three Emperors Alliance again.
