In the era when telegraph technology was just becoming popular, the global information transmission efficiency was not so strong, and due to technical limitations, telegraph could only use the shortest text to convey complex information. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Of course, it is very simple for ordinary people to send a telegram, for example, "the father is sick and returns quickly", "the son is on the list", and "the station is picked up at 9 o'clock on the 16th", and the person receiving the telegram knows what is going on at a glance.

However, it is very difficult to transmit the secret affairs of the military state by telegram, because many orders are very complicated, especially the description of the battle situation, and it is impossible to expect one or two sentences to explain it.

For example, if a telegram reads, 'Battle of Vladivostok, Chinese Victory,' and just a few words, what can be clearly written? A crushing victory, a small victory, a wild victory, how to divide the territory, a total annihilation or a siege, how many commanders are still alive, and whether a treaty has been signed?

These specific details could not be fully expressed in a single telegram, which means that it would take a long time for Europeans to understand the details of the battle in the Far East.

There is a time difference here, and if you play the time difference, Xiao Letian's media battle will be easy to fight.

The day after the combined fleet passed through the Strait of Malacca, the heads of European prime ministers and kings finally received a slightly more comprehensive telegram.

When the news of the Chinese victory finally reached Europe, all politicians and strategic analysts were shocked that day, and even the most bullish Chinese analysts speculated that the Chinese would win or draw.

But I never expected that it would be a wild victory, and the entire Tsarist Russia's sea reinforcements and land Cossack reinforcements were all surrounded and surrendered into formations, and Vladivostok had already been breached.

To everyone's surprise, all previous plans had to be scrapped and reformulated.

The French Foreign Ministry publicly stated in the newspaper that "this is an aggression by the Chinese Chiguoguo, they have torn up the Sino-Russian Beijing Treaty, and they are trampling on European civilization......

The whole statement is said to have been drafted by Napoleon III himself, and the words are full of blood and murder!

Napoleon's meaning was very clear, that is, to elevate the nature of the war from a hot war between the Chinese and Tsarist Russia to a challenge to the whole European civilization by the Chinese people.

The continuous smear of the Chinese people has only one meaning: 'Lao Tzu, I don't recognize the result of this war, we want to intervene, we want the whole of Europe to unite to intervene in this war!'

This is not only the calculation of Napoleon III alone, but also the small calculation in the hearts of many European powers, not to mention Tsarist Russia, at least Britain, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands and other countries have this idea.

As Benjamin said, what Britain needed was for Tsarist Russia and the Chinese to bleed each other and weaken each other in the Far East, not to really make the Chinese strong.

Now that Xiao Lotian has won like a wild victory, then the follow-up can no longer follow his wishes.

The first step was to intervene diplomatically, and the whole of Europe formed a joint research mission to investigate and evaluate the definition of the war, whether the Chinese were invading or merely supporting the local aboriginal uprising?

The second step is not to recognize the justice of the Chinese war, and Europe wants to maintain the Sino-Russian Beijing Treaty, which is also a matter of maintaining the face of the whole of Europe in Asia.

As long as the justice of the Chinese war is not recognized, Europe can protest and exert diplomatic pressure to force the Chinese to withdraw and release the prisoners of war, and then accept the harsh conditions of the Europeans at the negotiating table.

Third, if the Chinese do not accept the European ruling, then Europe will prepare for the next step of punishment, and the countries are ready to gather troops for armed intervention.

Tsarist Russia and France are determined to send troops, Britain will also come to fight soy sauce, and then some small countries in Europe will definitely come to mix, and when the coalition forces are drawn to Asia, the emerging Chinese will not be able to resist at all.

This is how the emperor's abacus is, and at the same time the small abacus of many countries, but they never expected that they would hit a nail in the face of strong public opinion.

Six hours after the Emperor's menacing proclamation, Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands ...... Even Tsarist Russia has issued its own statements.

Regardless of whether the tone of the countries was strong or weak, whether they were doubtful or convinced, they were all emotionally supportive of France anyway, and for a time the entire European diplomatic community was suddenly busy.

Although Britain did not join in the crowd to make a statement, the editor-in-chief of The Times actually published a record of an interview with Benjamin in his private name.

Benjamin expressed his concern about the situation in the Far East in a very tactful diplomatic tone, and sideways believed that the Sino-Russian Beijing Treaty was inadmissible, which also supported France's attitude.

All of a sudden, the shouting and killing of the Chinese and Xiao Letian resounded throughout Europe, and the newspapers of all countries began to decipher the war in the Far East.

Unexpectedly, just 24 hours after the French emperor issued his statement, dozens of newspapers and periodicals in Prussia, including the mainstream media of Austria and Italy, suddenly issued a series of questions and rhetorical questions.

"Who is the betrayer of the treaty? Who is responsible for this war, and what is happening in the Far East?"

The newspaper directly threw out some of the evidence chains of the previous series of reports on the Chinese Orient: "Kind European people, keep your eyes open, the real evidence has long been placed in front of everyone, don't we have our own analysis?"

The people were boiling, and all the previous Chinese Oriental series of newspapers were turned out again, and the Chinese explanation of this war was once again deeply popularized.

Minzhi has already opened, then don't think about being blinded again, Europeans are not stupid, they are not so easy to deceive!

On one side there are politicians who curse and shout hoarsely, while on the other side they are civilized reasoning, putting photos, human witnesses, physical evidence, time, place, and circumstantial evidence of third parties...... These iron-clad facts are laid out clearly, who do you want the people to believe?

The underground printing organizations in Paris, which had just been purged, were revived, and the tabloids that were flying all over the sky began to be passed on again, and the workers, petty bourgeoisie, and enlightened intellectuals shared them through their own channels.

Many citizens often find that a thin number is stuffed into the crack of their door at five o'clock in the morning, and the citizens who go out to buy milk secretly see that there is no one left and right, and quickly hide the number at home.

These underground publications, protected by the Prussian spy network, explained to the people of France what kind of war was in the Far East and analyzed the sinister intentions of Napoleon III in wanting to continue the war.

"Enlightened French citizens, at a time when the gap between rich and poor in the country continues to widen, unemployment remains high, and the people are miserable, the aristocracy once again wants to start a war!"

"Is it that the French treasury has so much money that there is no place to spend it? must we avenge Tsarist Russia? stand up for that barbarous country, and use the lives of French warriors to maintain that brutal rule?"

"No! We must not allow this to happen! How can we add fuel to the hardships of life! The poor people slaughtered in the Far East, they are oppressed like us!"

"Truth, there is always justice and justice in this world! The lies of liars do not want to confuse the people's intelligence! We are absolutely not cannon fodder for kings and nobles!"
