War is always a feast for the press industry, and no matter how righteous the penmen of those newspapers condemn the war, there is no doubt that the war has brought about a sharp increase in newspaper sales and a sharp increase in the income of employees.

Wars were fought, and in a rare European army scuffle, the Austro-Prussian War attracted the attention of the entire civilized world from the very beginning.

First of all, this is a contest between orthodox European powers, a pure European civil war, and this kind of drama of brothers fighting in the same room has always been very eye-catching.

Second, this war took place in the interior of Europe, and people in the civilized world may not understand where the Crimea and the Manchu Dagu mouth are, and they do not know what geographical advantages Turkey and the Bohai Sea have. But Europeans all understood the landscape and cultural heritage between Austria and Prussia, and the common people could understand the war, no matter how complex it was.

Again, the scale of this war is simply too great, and the combined number of troops mobilized by the two countries has exceeded two million, and such a huge number appeared in the newspapers, and the whole world was immediately shocked.

More than two million people, that's not two hundred, not two thousand, not two thousand, not two thousand, but a whole two million, this scale of the war made Britain and France a little dumbfounded.

In the Crimean War that year, the combined forces of Britain, France and Turkey were more than 200,000, and the total strength of Russia was more than 100,000.

And now, the crazy German nation has actually adjusted the scale of the war to the level of one million at once, what is this not reckless militarism?

Isn't it just madness, the more alarming the numbers in the newspapers, the more sales will roll upward, and the more eye-catching the news, the more worth digging the gold mine, and all the journalists in Europe have been busy and crazy at this time.

Overtime, overtime and overtime, salary increase, salary increase and salary increase...... Countless reporters and editors didn't even want their homes, and threw themselves into the newspaper office, everyone wanted to grab the biggest piece of cake in this feast, and they all grabbed the news like red-eyed dogs.

No one is convinced, this group of golden pen rods across the sea to show their magical powers, they mobilized connections that ordinary people can't imagine, and dig out true and false half-truths from all corners of the news, this media war is full of gunpowder smoke.

Until the end, when the peerless master who had been silent for a long time, but hid in everyone's hearts and did not dare to mention it, suddenly made a move, the war finally came to an end, and at that moment the golden pen poles of all Europe collectively lost their voices, and after a short silence there was a supervolcano eruption, and the media of the whole Europe went completely crazy.

"Leo... Leo... Leo's Monograph......"

Hamburg, Berlin, London, Paris, Vienna, Rome, Lisbon, Madrid, Moscow...... The big cities of Europe were completely sensational, and almost at the same time all the front pages of the media published Leo's special topic, and the long-lost Miracle of the East column began to be updated again.

"In the Battle of Sadowa, the Chinese officer corps defeated the Austrian Thorn Flower Division with the weak and the strong......"

"700 warriors defended the Stone Bridge Heights, resisted the elite of the 12,000 Prussian army, and without artillery support, they defended the high ground for six hours, saving 200,000 Prussian troops in the Battle of Sadowa......"

"The Miracle of the East... The Chinese officer corps led the Hamburg recruits to annihilate 5,000 Austrians in six hours...... Victory..."

Who is Leon? Since he met Xiao Letian, a noble man, he has become a new star in the European newspaper industry, and every one of his special topics is a guarantee of sales, as long as he writes every word can ignite the enthusiasm of the European people.

Now that Leo has become a Chinese expert and orientalist in Europe, he reported on the feat of saving orphans at the new arsenal in Hamburg, as well as on the Franco-Swiss border that shocked Europe.

Even Xiao Letian was stabbed by a French bayonet, and then provoked a Sino-French media war is also his first and last end, and now Napoleon III is eager to eat his flesh raw when he hears the name Leo, according to Prussian intelligence, the French even developed a plan to assassinate Leo, and later did it for unknown reasons.

And today, when the flames of war in Sadova have been extinguished, the two countries have reached a temporary agreement, and the news value of the war has begun to plummet, Leo has once again ignited the enthusiasm of the people of Europe with one stone.

"Selling newspapers...... Sell Newspaper ...... In the latest issue of The Times, Mr. Leo wrote again and released ten photographs at once, all of which were photographs of the bloody battle at the Stone Bridge...... "As soon as the newsboy's shout sounded on both sides of the Thames, the English gentlemen went crazy, and they surrounded them like a swarm of flies.

"Give me a ...... Hurry up, my God, Leo's subject is so hard to wait for, can't he write faster?"

"Oh... Look, this is Shaw, the prime minister of the East? This is the first photo of him in military uniform...... What is he doing here? Is he directing a battle in the field?" Xiao Letian glared angrily in the photo, and the Chinese officers under his command were clearly at odds with the Prussian New Army.

"Look at this one again, the trenches... Sure enough, it's a trench...... I'm right, the only way to defend the Stone Bridge Heights is to defend it with trenches...... Great, really powerful, the three trenches can be defended section by section, and they can also reduce the lethality of the enemy's artillery......"

Countless readers gathered in taverns, coffee houses, restaurants, and even on the streets, whether they knew each other or not, to discuss each and every astonishing military photograph.

Leo's camera skills are superb, he not only clearly recorded the whole process of the bloody battle of the stone bridge, but also he grasped the angle very well, every photo can be called a work of art, he accurately fixed the momentum of the war on the photo.

Those who live in a peaceful city, seeing a hooligan fight on weekdays can make him excited for three days, and they can withstand the stimulation of such a bloody picture, and one by one adrenaline is secreted sharply.

"Artillery battle... This is the Austrians firing their guns...... God, is this the gate of hell opened? The whole high ground is covered with smoke and flames, and what kind of person can survive such a cannon battle?"

"Look at this one... The Prussians were charging, and a phalanx of thousands was rushing forward...... Hey, the Prussian army is really the same as rumored, all of them have popularized rear-loading rifles, you see they can be reloaded in concealment......"

Picture after photo of the war stunned all the readers, from the task force battalion, then to the temporary military conference, the cavalry broke through, and the trenches were built on the stone bridge heights...... All the way to artillery battles, rifle fire, grenade fights, almost all the classic pictures of the entire battlefield are displayed.

By the time everyone's eyes reached the last photo, the crowd hissed and gasped, and the hairs on people's bodies exploded.

"Counter-charge...... How dare the Chinese countercharge?"

"Hand-to-hand combat...... They actually fought a hundred hand-to-hand fights?"

"What kind of weapon is this? The long knife of the East? The ancient army has been resurrected, and it has been resurrected in Sadova......

The crowd was in chaos, and no one could deny that this blood-drenched ancient cold weapon combat was the most exciting mode of war for human beings' primitive desires, and there was no one who didn't get enthusiastic when they saw this picture.

In the photo, Xiao Letian's knife drawing team, those Japanese mercenaries holding knives, lined up in two horizontal formations, one row was slashing downward, blood splashed after the knife light, and then the row of knives was raised high and looked like they were about to take over the slashing.

The stillness is full of movement, as if the two rows of samurai wielded their long knives and rolled forward like Dutch windmills, and all the enemies in their way were reduced to broken corpses.

What shocked all readers even more was that on the side of the Taidao Army Formation, a familiar figure was brandishing a pistol and roaring wildly, who else could it be if it wasn't Xiao Letian.

"God, this Prime Minister of the East is not a civilian, he is a general... ......How could he dare to rush to the front line on such a battlefield?

People's incomprehension and surprise are justified, from ancient times to the present, civilian officials have come to the battlefield in person, at most, they are sitting in the rear headquarters, and they can use binoculars to look at the entire battlefield, this kind of person can be said to be both civil and military.

Like Bismarck, he was on the battlefield, but he couldn't have been on the front line in a hail of bullets, and that had nothing to do with bravery, because the location of such a person should be in front of the map, in the middle of the pile of copywriting.

Now, as the prime minister of a country, Xiao Letian actually appeared in the bloody hand-to-hand battle, and this absolutely masculine behavior of a man completely convinced all readers.

At that moment, even the proudest Briton had to sigh and shake their heads "Warriors, absolute warriors... This is God's favored darling, bravery and wisdom have all been given to this Oriental politician, I am not as good as him, I admire..."

At the end of the title, Leo wrote in the most exaggerated bold type: "These are the Chinese, these are the Chinese that were attacked by Britain and France six years ago, these are also the Chinese that have been ruled by foreign races for more than two hundred years, these are the Oriental barbarians ridiculed by the whole of Europe, and these are the backward peoples of East Asia propagated by Britain and France......"

"It is such a barbaric and backward Chinese who created a miracle in military history in Shiqiao Heights... A miracle that stunned all the military strategists of Europe at once......"

"Gentlemen of the civilized world, in the face of such a miracle, I think everyone should deeply reflect on how we should get along with such a nation and such a group of people?

"I'm Leo, my Oriental specialty, and I'm just getting started..."

Leo's question shook the entire civilized world into silence, and everyone was thinking, but no one had an answer. But one thing is clear, at this time anyone who says that the Chinese are a group of weak people dragging pigs' tails is really a joke.

In the summer of 1866, Xiao Lotian led his miracle army to sweep through the European public opinion circle, and they used the most iron-blooded killing to wash away all the ridicule in the hearts of Europeans, so that all the tasks of the European trip were completed.
