Chapter 148 The world has a huge response (ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for support)

As soon as the news of the defeat at the Missouri River reached Washington, the entire upper strata of the United States lost their voices, and a huge sense of humiliation and frustration erupted, which plunged American public opinion into two extreme emotions: suspicion and paranoia.

American society at this time

Still immersed in the joy of the victory over Mexico, he was suddenly awakened by the news of the defeat from the west, and the huge psychological gap drove the conceited white Americans crazy, and the society was divided into conservative skepticism and radical arguments for expanding the war.

The Washington Post reported on this; "The Fall of America, the Fall of a Legend."

The report did not reveal the specific news of Admiral Taylor, but lamented that "General Taylor, who had just proved himself with a series of outstanding victories, was completely defeated by the bloody sword of the demon king Richard, completely burying the main force of more than 10,000 elite American cavalry, this is the death of the United States, a legendary fall......"

The New York Times made a front-page headline; "The Enemy of Christendom in North America ~ The Rise of the Demon King Richard."

In its commentary, the newspaper compared Richard to Attila the Great, the "whip of God" who terrified the whole of Europe hundreds of years ago, and called him the "end of the doomsday".

The New York Daily Tribune, known for its frivolous news and thriller yellow reports, speculated about King Richard out of thin air in the front-page headlines, and the bold line of the masthead was;

The demon king Satan has reappeared in the world, and North America will fall into a terrifying blood prison.

The newspaper did its best to create a frightening story while fabricating a frightening lie;

King Richard was the embodiment of Satan, and the reason why he wanted to capture so many Caucasian women was to pick out pure white virgins who were over 14 years old. Use their blood and young carcasses to satisfy the Demon King's appetite and maintain unimaginably powerful clouds.

reported by the Royal Gazette, the mouthpiece representing public opinion in the Southern states;

Enough is enough!

! Let it all stop!

The newspaper was extremely pessimistic about the successive fiascos of the Western Expedition, believing that the Tang Kingdom was a nightmare for the American Commonwealth, and that it was time to stop all this, let the boys go home, and let peace return......

Amid the disturbance of public opinion, the White House was rarely silent and did not express a public opinion on this.

A week later

When the news reached Europe, England shook, France shook, Prussia shook, and the countries of Europe shook......

In today's world

There are not many military powers that can throw tens of thousands of cavalry into the war at one time, and there will be no more than 10 in any number, and the United States may be the last one in terms of combat effectiveness.

But in any case, the United States, which has just defeated Mexico, can barely be regarded as a second-rate world power, and it is always a little stronger than Portugal, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Greece and other third-rate European countries.

Not to mention more than 10,000 heavily armed cavalry, even more than 10,000 chickens have to be caught for a long time!

Where is this Tang Kingdom sacred?

Why is it so powerful?

What kind of person was King Richard?

When did such a powerful Tang Kingdom emerge?

Is it the North American spoiler supported by the United Kingdom?

Where will the situation in North America develop in the future?

Cuirassiers?

Storm heavy machine guns?

Colt 1846 cavalry-style revolver?

This...... Is the United States in trouble?

Countless questions popped up, which made the European melon-eating masses who were in trouble in France full of interest, and their curiosity was successfully seduced, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.

The British newspaper The Times reported on this;

The American cowboy with black fingernails finally experienced the most painful beating, one or two countless fiascos, and finally sobered up these rough Americans who claimed to "shoulder the sacred mission of unifying the North American continent......

Britain has always adhered to the style of poisonous tongue, and all kinds of ridicule and sarcasm are full of newspapers, and there is a hidden sense of happiness in eating melons.

Some British newspapers even proposed to give the "Duke of California" (King Richard) a 1,000-pound medal to reward him for "this sharp slap in the face......

Reported by the French newspaper Le Parisien;

The United States lost more than 10,000 cavalry in World War I, hoping that France would lend a helping hand again.

The newspaper once again recalled the generous assistance provided by Emperor Louis XVI of France to the United States, and did not forget to mention the "Louisiana purchase of the land." It was deeply concerned about the United States taking advantage of the crisis in France, revealing mixed feelings of joy, hatred, and dislike.

The so-called "Louisiana Purchase" was a transaction in 1803 by the United States to France for about three cents per acre for more than 529,911,680 acres (2144476 square kilometers in total), and the total price of the transaction was $15 million or the equivalent of 80 million francs.

It is a kind of "cub selling Ye Tian is not heartbroken" emotion, look at France, which is now locked in the development space by the Holy Alliance of the Four Nations, how can the proud Gallic rooster be embarrassed?

Based on their respective positions

Newspapers in various European countries have focused on the war that took place in distant North America, which invisibly helped Richard to become famous, and made countless Europeans remember the name of Richard, the king of the Tang Kingdom and the Duke of California.

The progress of the "Prestige Mission" has risen by a large margin, from 11.3% to 21.76%, almost doubling.

San Luis

St. Louis is a Great Plains city in the middle of North America, about 730 kilometers south of Chicago and about 486 kilometers east of Kansas City, with a population of 173,000 people, only more than 40 kilometers from Cairns County in the north.

The city has been occupied by the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom, and when attacking the city, it was desperately resisted by the local garrison and militia, and the Tang Kingdom paid a heavy price of more than 1,960 casualties, of which more than 1,400 were white soldiers who were converted after capture.

Even so, the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom suffered more than 550 casualties, the largest casualty so far.

The fierce resistance of the people of St. Louis completely angered Richard, and he issued an order not to seal the knife for 5 days, and washed this originally quiet and peaceful city in blood.

There is no need to tell them one by one.

Although the atrocities of the Tang Kingdom aroused the anger of many white Americans, it was more about the spread of fear, as is the most vivid example in Cairns County, which is close at hand.

When the cavalry of the Tang Empire arrived, all the leading figures in the county came out in unison, completely gave up resistance, and handed over the town with a population of 52,700.

This pleased Richard so much that he passed down the military order;

It is strictly forbidden to harm the inhabitants of the city, and it is strictly forbidden to set fire to the houses, and the whole army must not commit any crime.

These two examples of positive and negative things instantly woke up towns across the United States.

More than 10,000 cavalry of the Tang Kingdom (Note; Coupled with the more than 3,000 white cavalry converted from prisoners, minus the battle damage, it is worth more than 10,000 cavalry) has been stationed in the area for more than half a month, and has not seen the heavy attack of the American army, and seems to be frightened.

Actually, it's not that simple.

In the face of the serious threat of reality, cities and towns in the central and eastern United States have launched a vigorous campaign to build defense facilities, mobilized 200,000 or 300,000 armed militiamen, dug trenches and built forts everywhere, millions of people across the country participated, and even some factories stopped construction.

Richard also had no good solution to this situation.

Therefore, once again, a large number of people and tens of thousands of horse-drawn carriages were carried and marched towards the northwest.

The route of the Tang Kingdom cavalry back was to move away from Kansas City, cross the town between Kansas City and Chicago, pass through the ravaged Davenport, Iowa City, and return to Des Main County for thousands of miles.

along the way

Although small groups of U.S. cavalry were often encountered, they did not attract a large number of U.S. infantry, and it seems that the United States has learned a lesson and does not dare to attack again.

This frustrated Richard's plan, which had been to follow Mike Rabiot's ploy and lure the U.S. military with a population of nearly 80,000 (white women making up the vast majority), and then break it in one fell swoop.

The plan was to use the vast Great Plains of Central North America as a battlefield to annihilate a large number of American forces, interrupt the American attempt to attack Phoenix (Denver) to the west, hurt them, and force the United States back to the negotiating table.

As long as the heavy military group of the US army attacks, then how do you want to fight? Where to fight? The decision on when to fight is in Richard's hands, and he can lead the nose of the US military and run around.

If it doesn't work for one month, it will take two months, and if it doesn't work for two months, it will be three months, if you want to fight, you can fight, and if you want to leave, the US army can't help the cavalry corps of the Tang Kingdom, which is extremely mobile.

If you want to deal with cavalry, you have to be cavalry as well.

The elite main force of the American cavalry fought all the battles, and although the rest could gather 10,000 horses, there were still more than 4,000 horsemen in Mexico, more than 6,000 horsemen in Kansas City, and more than 1,000 horsemen in Chicago.

Even if a resultant force is formed, what does it matter?

After the Battle of Mishuli River, almost all the American cavalry was beaten out of psychological shadows, and when they saw the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom, they fled in the wind, and they did not dare to face the challenge at all.

Ten combat effectiveness, at most half can be left, this is the prestige of the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom.

Richard didn't care about the large number of people and materials he had plundered, it was just a bait for him to attract the main force of the American army, and even if he lost it all, he would not feel distressed at all.

The important thing is to annihilate the main forces of the US military, as long as such a goal can be achieved, basically the war can be brought to an end.

It's a pity

The United States was stunned and pretended to be a dead pig, and there was no danger along the way, so he watched the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom escort a large number of people and supplies and returned to Demaine County smoothly.

This was an eye-opener for Richard, who could only reluctantly accept these people, cattle and sheep.

Only in it did Richard deeply understand the helplessness of the Chinese nation when its national strength was weak, and he could only watch the grassland be powerful and plunder a large number of people returning north, and could do nothing.

It is better to be a knife than a fish.

The rich seizure greatly expanded the strength of the Tang Dynasty, and there was still a surplus after making up for the war expenses. This further strengthened Richard's basic idea of governing the country by strengthening the army and enriching the country, and he went further and further down this road without looking back.
