Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The war was always a feast for the news industry. No matter how righteous and reprimanded the war was by the newspaper people, there was no doubt about the surge in newspaper sales and the rise in the income of the employees.

It was a war, and it was a rare European army free-for-all, the Poo War had attracted the attention of the entire civilized world from the very beginning.

First of all, it was an orthodox contest between European powers, a purely European civil war, and the drama of one's own brothers-in-arms was always striking.

Secondly, this war was taking place in the interior of Europe. The people of the civilized world might not understand where the Crimea, Qing Dynasty and the Bohai Sea were located. However, all the Europeans understood the history of the war between the Austria and Prussia. No matter how complicated the battle was, ordinary citizens would be able to understand it.

Again, the scale of the war was simply too big. The two countries had mobilized more than two million men. The moment such a large number appeared in the newspapers, the entire world was shocked.

More than two million people, ah, that was not two hundred or two thousand, nor was it twenty thousand, it was an entire two million people. This kind of scale war made even English and French a little dumbfounded.

When they fought the Crimean War, the combined forces of the three realms of English and French and the three realms of only amounted to two hundred thousand, while the total military strength of the Russia was only a hundred thousand.

But now, the crazy German Nationality had changed the scale of the war to a million in one go.

What does the press like? It was just crazy. The more shocking the numbers in the newspapers, the more sales would roll up. The more exciting the news was, the more valuable the gold mine was. During this period of time, all of the journalists in Europe had been busy.

Overtime, overtime, salary increase, salary increase again... Countless reporters and editors had abandoned their homes and were wholeheartedly pouring their hearts and minds into the newspaper. Everyone wanted to snatch the biggest piece of cake in this feast. All of them were like red-eyed dogs trying to snatch the news.

None of them were convinced by the other party's words. These bunch of golden pennies had all displayed their abilities across the sea, mobilizing connections that ordinary people could not even imagine. They dug out true half-truths from all the corners, and this media battle was enough to ignite the flames of anger in all directions.

In the end, when the unparalleled expert, who had been silent for a long time but was hidden deep in everyone's heart, made his move, this big battle finally came to an end. At that moment, all the golden pens in Europe went silent, and after a short period of silence, a super volcano erupted, causing the entire European media to go completely crazy.

"Leo!" Leo! Leo's Theme... "

hamburger, Berlin, London, Paris, Vienna, Rome, Lisbon, Madrid, Moscow … All the big cities in Europe were in an uproar. Almost at the same time, all the front pages of the media were filled with Leo's topic, and the long-awaited Oriental miracle column began to update.

"In the battle of Sada, the Chinese officer was the weakest and the strongest. The Chinese officer was the victor …"

"700 warriors guarded the Shiqiao uplands with all their might, resisting the 12000 elite Prussian army soldiers. Without the support of cannons, they guarded the high ground for 6 hours and saved the Prussian army soldiers during the Sada Battle …"

"Eastern miracle! The Chinese officer Group led the Hamburg recruit, and in six hours, they exterminated 5000 Austrian Army … Victory! "

What kind of person was Leo? Ever since he met the noble Xiao Letian, he had become a rising star in the European newspaper industry. His every single topic was a guarantee of sales, and as long as he started writing, he could ignite the enthusiasm of the European people.

Now, Lei Ao had become a Chinese and Oriental scientist in Europe. He was the one who had reported on the heroic actions of the new army of the hamburger in saving the orphans, and also the one who had shocked Europe when they fought on the Fa Li border.

Now, Napoleon even wanted to eat his flesh alive when he heard the name of Leo. According to the divulging information from the Prussian Intelligence, the French had even formulated a plan to assassinate Leo, but for some reason, they gave up on it later on.

And today, when the flames of war in Sada had already been extinguished and the two countries had reached a temporary agreement, when the news value of the war had already started to plummet, Leo's action once again ignited the enthusiasm of the entire European people.

"Selling newspapers... Selling Newspaper... The latest issue of the Thames Report, Mr. Leo once again wrote and released ten photographs at once, all of them of the bloodbath on the stone bridge … " Just as the newspaper boy's voice rang out on both sides of the Thames River, the English gentlemen immediately went crazy, surrounding them like a swarm of flies.

"Give me one …" "Hurry, hurry, my God, Leo's topic is too hard to wait for, can't he write faster?"

"Oh!" Look, this is the Prime Minister of the East, Shaw. This is the first picture of him in uniform... What was he doing? Commander a battle in the wild? " The Xiao Letian in the photo glared at them angrily. His subordinate, the Chinese officer, had obviously been at loggerheads with the Prussian New Army.

"Look at this one, the trenches! It really was a trench … My guess is right, the only way to protect the Shiqiao uplands is to use the trench to defend … "Powerful, truly powerful. Three trenches can be used to guard against enemy artillery segment by segment, and can also lower the casualty rate of enemy artillery …"

Countless readers gathered in pubs, coffee shops, restaurants and even the streets, whether they knew each other or not, to discuss every astonishing military photo.

Leo's camera skills were excellent. Not only did he clearly record the entire battle on the stone bridge, but he also saw it from a perfect angle. Every picture could be considered a work of art.

The people who lived in peaceful cities could get him excited for three days just by watching a fight between hooligans. How could they endure such a blood-boiling scene? Adrenaline gushed out of their mouths one after another.

"Cannon fight!" This was the Austrian firing... My God, is this the door to hell being opened? The entire highland is covered in smoke and flames, what kind of people can survive this kind of artillery battle? "

"Look at this one!" The Prussian was charging, a dense formation of thousands of people was charging forward … Eh? Prussian army is really as the rumors say, they have acquired all of the Rifle equipment. Look, they can hide their weapons … "

Photos of the war left all the readers dumbstruck. From the departure of the special mix camp to the temporary military conference, to the cavalry breaking out of siege, to the construction of the Shiqiao uplands trenches … All the way until the artillery battle, the rifle barrage, and the grenades clashing, the classic scenes of the entire battlefield were displayed.

When everyone's eyes landed on the last photo, the crowd began to hiss as they gasped, and the hairs on everyone's bodies began to stand on end.

"Countercharge..." The Chinese actually dare to counterattack? "

"Fight …" They actually fought a battle with a hundred people? "

"What weapon is this? The long sword in the east? "The ancient army was resurrected. It was resurrected in Sardova …"

The crowd was in a state of chaos. No one could deny that this blood-dripping, ancient, and cold weapon of war was the most effective way of stimulating the primitive desires of humans. Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but feel their blood boil.

In the photo, Xiao Letian's knife drawing team and the Japanese mercenaries were in two rows, one was slashing downwards, and after the slash, blood was splattered, while the other row of Katana was raising up high, looking like they were about to take over the killing.

The still scene was filled with excitement, as if the two rows of warriors were rolling forward like Dutch windmills while waving their long swords. All the enemies blocking their path had turned into broken corpses.

What was even more shocking was that, at the side of the Katana Army Formation, a familiar figure was waving her gun and shouting frantically. Who else could it be other than Xiao Letian?

"God, this Prime Minister of the East is not a civil servant, he is a general! He actually dared to rush to the front line of this battlefield? "How is this possible …"

The people's puzzlement and astonishment were justified. Since ancient times, when civil officials personally came to the battlefield, they at most sat in the rear of the headquarters. To be able to view the entire battlefield through binoculars could be said to be a combination of both civil and military.

For example, Bismark himself had come to the battlefield, but he could not possibly have braved the rain of bullets to appear at the frontline. This had nothing to do with bravery, because the location of this kind of person should be right in front of the map, in the middle of a pile of papers.

Now, as the Prime Minister of a certain country, Xiao Letian had actually personally appeared in the midst of a flesh and blood fight.

At that moment, even the most proud Englishman had to sigh and shake her head. This is the favorite of God. To think that courage and wisdom would be given to this Eastern politician. I am inferior to him, I am very impressed! "

At the end of the topic, Leo wrote in the most exaggerated bold type, "These are the Chinese. These are the Chinese who were attacked by the English and French six years ago. These are the Chinese who were ruled over two hundred years by the foreign races.

"It is precisely such a barbaric and backward Chinese who managed to create a miracle in the military history of the Shiqiao uplands! a miracle that stunned all European militarists... "

"Gentlemen of the civilized world, facing such a miracle, I think everyone should reflect deeply on how we should get along with such a race and such a group of people. This is a question, a question worth thinking about throughout Europe! "

"My name is Leo, and I'm at the beginning of my oriental program!"

Leo's question silenced the entire civilized world. Everyone was thinking, but no one had an answer. However, it is clear that at this point in time, it would be a joke to say that the Chinese are a bunch of weaklings with pig tails.

In the summer of 1866, Xiao Letian brought his Miracle Corps and swept across the European public opinion circle. They used the most iron-blooded slaughter to wash away all the ridicule in the Europeans' hearts.
