Become a feudal king from today - #1119 - Chapter 1130 Panic
“In addition, we should also appease other Western countries. Countries including Frank must be scared now. Google search reading” Just as he was about to let William and the others go back and be alone, Eisley thought of another order. A headache for people.
This expedition was initiated by Britain.
Not only did these Western countries that followed them not gain any benefits in the East, they also suffered heavy losses. They will definitely have many complaints about Britain and even be dissatisfied with Britain.
This situation, if not handled properly, could cause the British-sponsored alliance to fall apart.
“We immediately dispatched diplomats to various countries.” William bent slightly. .
Next, he is afraid that he will spend a lot of time to quell the negative impact of the Tianzhu War.
For Britain itself, he also placated the nobility and the people.
To the nations, he wants to give them confidence.
After all, fear sometimes brings unity, and sometimes it makes some cowards choose to betray.
“As for Duke Welling, please be sure to supervise the imitation of breech-loading rifles. If we can successfully imitate rifles with similar performance, we will have more say in the future battle with Dasong.” Eisley asked William , and turned to the field marshal.
Then, she looked at Thompson and said, “I need to know all the information about Dasong’s new warship, and so do you. At the same time, we will gather technical personnel to use the limited information to study the structural principles of this new warship.”
With a long sigh, her eyelids drooped, “The foundation of our British hegemony lies in maritime hegemony. Losing maritime hegemony means losing everything. Therefore, we can lose anywhere, but we cannot lose in this aspect, even if we spend everything we have. , we also want to surpass Dasong in the navy.”
“As you command, Your Majesty.” Welling and Thompson bowed slightly.
Seeing Ashley waving, the three of them understood and left Waterham Palace.
Returning to their respective official offices, the three of them immediately fell into busy affairs.
William immediately called the chairman of the newspaper committee.
This is the head of the British government agency responsible for managing newspapers.
“I think someone has more or less known the news about the Tianzhu War. In order to prevent the people from panic, I need you to release the news to the outside world as I said.” William said.
“Okay, Prime Minister.” The person in charge took out a small book from his coat pocket and prepared for discipline.
The financial backers behind Longton’s three private newspapers were all Whig MPs.
It is precisely because of this that in the election against the Tories two years ago, they used the influence of newspapers on the people to win the election battle.
After that, they became more and more aware of the importance of newspapers.
Although this organization is inconspicuous, it can dominate public opinion and create an environment that is beneficial to itself.
Of course, the failed Tories realized this too, so they too started to get into the newspaper business.
It’s just that they arrived too late, and their status as three newspapers was already unshakable.
“Today is a sad day. We have just received news that the soldiers on the expedition had a fierce battle with the demons from the east in Tianzhu. Although our soldiers are brave and fearless, because the entire eastern land has become the lair of demons, in the Despite these adverse circumstances, they still failed.”
“However, they also made great sacrifices in exchange for great achievements. Now, the demons in the east have suffered heavy losses and can only retreat to the east and lick their wounds, unable to continue to invade the west.”
“However, the devil will always heal its wounds one day. Now not only we Britons must unite, but the entire Western Territory must unite. As long as we work together, we will definitely defeat the devil. Don’t forget that this is a holy war, and small setbacks will not matter. We should be discouraged, we will fight to the end until the jihad is won!” William stated his general meaning in one breath, and then said, “Go back and let your people polish it up.”
What he dictated was trying his best not to avoid failure, but more to arouse the public’s anger towards Da Song.
In this way, the failure of the expedition seemed less frightening.
On the contrary, it will make people more united.
At a time when William was rescuing the fallout from the failure of his expedition.
Frank across the British Channel also received news that the Allied forces had been annihilated.
After that, the news jumped from one place to another like a flea.
Within two or three days, all the Western and Turkish countries participating in the expedition were basically informed of the matter.
Almost like Britain, the kings or prime ministers of these countries tried their best to downplay the defeat, but instead deepened hostility towards Dasong by stirring up national sentiments.
They know very well that if they admit policy mistakes, they will inevitably be criticized by the opposition.
It is more beneficial to you to shape yourself into a hero who resists enemies.
However, because the bewitched people did not understand Da Song’s true strength, they still clamored for war, and the racial sentiment of white supremacy became even more intense.
But the nobles who understood what they really wanted knew it well and decided that something must be done.
Someone proposed to send an envoy to Dasong to secretly improve relations and resume trade with Dongtu.
The failure of the naval battle made them understand that the ocean belonged to Dasong from now on.
Without the consent of the Dasong people, we would no longer be able to conduct sea trade in the East, and even other trade routes would gradually be lost in the future.
There are also people who are unwilling to accept the fall of the Western-Turkish hegemony and demand the establishment of a stronger Western-Turkish alliance, mobilize the people, and fully confront Dasong.
However, despite their frequent actions, what was most disturbing in their hearts was panic.
Just like a prisoner waiting for the final judgment.
