When the British arrived at the battlefield, they were first stunned by the horrors of the battlefield, the Zulus were not blood-drinking savages, they also had their own traditions. For example www.biquge.info after getting the shovel produced by Chinese, they will also dig a large pit on the spot to bury the Zulu war dead.

When the Zulus were done, the British who rushed to the battlefield saw more than 10,000 streaned British corpses scattered on the ground. Because they were stripped of all their clothes by the Zulus, and because they would not be tanned after death, the corpses of the white flowers were placed on the ground, which was particularly terrifying. Flocks of vultures and jackals pick and choose on these delicacies, making the image of the corpse particularly terrifying. Shots rang out, and the British troops had to use their rifles to drive away vultures and jackals before they could enter the area.

The British Expeditionary Force was no longer numerous enough to launch a large-scale attack, and no matter how angry they were, the British troops had to collect the corpses first. Perhaps because of the workload was too much, or because they were too depressed, the British did not dig up the corpses of the Zulu soldiers next to them and behead them to vent their anger.

On March 16, 1890, the commander of the British Expeditionary Force, Admiral Lawrence, resigned. On March 18, the newspapers finally broke the news, and the news shook Europe so much that even the news of the Chinese army's offensive after the winter was ranked in the newspapers' unnoticeable position. Newspapers all over Britain and even across Europe are bustling with enthusiasm about what has happened recently. Although the newspapers had no idea what was going on in Africa, they didn't even know who Britain was fighting with. But the ignorance of reality not only did not silence the newspapers, but allowed them to let their imagination run wild.

All sorts of irresponsible news appeared in the newspapers, gloating that the British had lost more than 20,000 people, and even as much as 200,000. The pretending to be rational begins with a series of posts and ends with a speculative explanation.

In the past 100 years, all European countries have basically stood on the same front as Britain's-stirring stick, and have even been slammed by Britain's-stirring stick. Now seeing that Britain has been defeated by the white and black countries in distant Africa, the mood of the countries of the European continent cannot be found except to be refreshing.

Then the Zulu emissaries asked the European countries to recognize it, and the news of attempts to establish formal diplomatic relations with the European countries was dug up. This news has not been long in the past, less than half a month, and it is hot. The news that had previously been published in the entertainment section to entertain the public quickly made the official front page, because of the lack of awareness of the Zulu kingdom, and the newspaper also replaced the facts with imagination.

Of course, it's not just the newspaper industry that is imaginative. Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany let his imagination run wild. He ordered his attendants to fetch a map of Africa and threw himself in the center of the huge table. In addition to the map, there are also a number of newspapers in the empty space next to the table.

The Berlin Conference on the Partition of Africa was an international conference chaired by Chancellor Bismarck, and because the principle of "effective occupation" was established at the conference, which could be shared by all the great powers, Germany did not covet Africa so much. Although the German Army defeated the French Army and became the strongest army in Europe. But the craziest German upper echelons probably didn't think that this German army would be able to fight into Africa on foot. The German navy was just a chrysalis of a butterfly at this time.

But this did not stop Wilhelm II from his hobby, and the German emperor loved to look at the map and let his imagination run wild on the map. No matter how far South Africa is actually from Germany, it is not that far from the ground.

"Your Majesty, we have brought the documents of the Zulu Kingdom that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs received." The attendant interrupted the emperor's research and pulled him back to reality for the time being.

"Oh? Got it? Wilhelm II was astonished, then delighted. Even he did not think that the German Foreign Office would have kept such a document, and if it was Wilhelm II who received the black delegation, he would probably have thrown the documents provided by the black delegation into the garbage basket as soon as possible. The fact that the German Foreign Office, although it looked down on the blacks of the Zulu Kingdom, was able to store documents in accordance with the regulations, which made Wilhelm II feel that his subordinates were really very qualified people.

“…… Well, Your Majesty, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that there are a lot of misuses of the German language in this part of the document, and they list the basic requirements of the Zulu Kingdom. I put it on top. The squire said.

Wilhelm II directly picked up the things that the German Foreign Office had put together, and the words of the Foreign Office transferred by the attendants successfully influenced Wilhelm II's judgment, and the young emperor had no urge to read the "misworded" things.

The Zulu kingdom's claim is mainly three-parted, the first part is to declare the history and legitimacy of the Zulu kingdom itself. Within a few years of the founding of Germany, Prussia had a long history, but the Zulu kingdom claimed to be its own kingdom for 100 years, which could scare Wilhelm I.

The second part is the size of the Zulu Kingdom. Rain Village?? The Zulu king's map included most of the Drakkens Mountains, as well as traditional Zulu lands. In other words, most of the African tribes in the Drakens were presumably vassals of the British. Most of the traditional Zulu lands were in Boer hands at this time.

Wilhelm II did not know this, and immediately lay down on the map and began to study the place names. Because of its limited naval strength, Germany occupied Togo, Cameroon, and German West Africa, which was Namibia, another time and space in Weez. Namibia is next to the British colony of Cape Town, and the Germans are not completely blind to South Africa.

"If the Boers and Zulus join forces, they will be able to wipe out 20,000 British expeditionary forces. So is it possible for them to counterattack the British colony of Cape Town? "The emperor 'talked to himself' in front of his attendants. The emperor's attendants were all excellent students in the military academy, and in addition to being very good academically, they also had a good background. Most of these attendants have the word 'Feng' in their name.

As soon as he heard the emperor's words, the young attendant couldn't help but tell the truth. "Your Majesty, according to our intelligence, the Boers and Zulus have been fighting for decades, and it is unlikely that they will be able to cooperate."

Wilhelm II was not angry, he frowned slightly, considering the information provided by the squire. After thinking for a while, the German emperor asked, "If we send envoys to persuade them, is it possible for these two countries to join forces against Britain?" ”
