Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 1045 Start the Public Opinion War
When Carlino was recovering the governorship of New Spain with the assistance of Ocundo, Qin Yiming, and Qin Gongming brothers, Sun Chengzong was also preparing to launch a public opinion war against the Persian Empire with the assistance of Wen Zhenmeng and Sun Quan.

The reason why they have not started for a long time is because Wallenstein's army has not yet made a move.

If they messed up the Persian Empire or even instigated rebellion, Wallenstein would probably be scared to retreat to the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania or the current Kingdom of Bohemia when he received the news.

No way, they can't startle the snake.

If Wallenstein backs off, there's trouble.

If the Continental Confederation had more than 200 million troops guarding the cities and fortresses, then Ming would have to pay a high price to defeat them.

Fortunately, Wallenstein was duped by the Duke of Richelieu.

He really thought that the fleets of the British, Spanish, Dutch and French would attack across the board and rush to the Americas to rob them, which would attract the troops of the Ming Empire to assist in the defense.

Therefore, as soon as the Spanish, Dutch and French fleets attacked, he personally led an army of 200 million and went straight to the Ural Mountains.

At this time, his mind also changed.

He has already forgotten the setbacks brought to him by the Ming Empire, he just wants to lead his army into the Ming Empire and achieve grand dominance!
People will always change their minds according to the external environment or their own situation.

When Wallenstein was just a commander abandoned by the Holy Roman Emperor, his fate could only be decided by Felipe IV who used him. If Felipe IV felt that he was not good enough, he would be finished.

Therefore, at that time, he didn't want to lead the army to fight against the Ming Empire. If there were too many defeats, he would be finished.

It's different now, he has become the king of Bohemia, and he owns a territory no less than that of the Holy Roman Empire and an army large enough to overwhelm the entire continent of Europe.

His only problem now is that he is not able to produce weapons and equipment by himself, let alone muskets and artillery, even ammunition, he can't mass-produce and be self-sufficient.

This is also the key for the Continental League to handle him.

If he wants to get rid of the control of the European Continental Union, or even control the Continental Continental Union in turn, and achieve hegemony, he must solve the production problem of weapons and equipment.

How to solve this problem?

If he invites someone to develop it himself, it will probably take at least a few years.

Naturally, he didn't want to delay for such a long time, so he chose the easiest and fastest way, grab it!
As long as you grab the steam machine tools used by the Ming Empire to manufacture weapons and equipment, this problem will be solved!
The technology of the Ming Empire is far ahead of the European Union. If he can snatch the steam machine tools used by the Ming Empire to manufacture weapons and equipment, he will be able to get rid of the control of the European Union in an instant, and even overtake the European Union.

Duke Richelieu did not think of this.

What would happen if Wallenstein really broke into the interior of Daming and snatched the steam machine tool?
On the northwestern defense line of the Ming Dynasty, in the southern part of the Ural Mountains, Wallenstein's hundreds of thousands of pioneers were advancing through the valleys with tools such as shovels, hoes, and shovels.

Behind them is the army of more than one million in Bohemia.

Tsarist Russia is naturally familiar with this place, and they don't know how many trails they have mastered through the mountains.

Originally, Tsarist Russia was unable to build the more than [-]-mile-long mountain road because of too few troops.

It's different now. Wallenstein can casually pull out 50 or even 100 million troops to build roads. Naturally, this mountain road is extending eastward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Wallenstein couldn't help showing a hint of excitement in his eyes as he watched the advancing striker.

At this moment, the fleets of the British, Spanish, Dutch and French had already gone to the Americas to plunder, and the Ming Empire would definitely be involved in some of its troops.

More importantly, the Persian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and Tsarist Russia stationed troops on the border of the Ming Empire, reaching the front of their defense lines.

It is estimated that the troops on the western front of the Ming Empire were attracted by the Persian Empire, the Ottoman Empire and Tsarist Russia.

As long as he builds this mountain road, he will be able to rush into the interior of the Ming Empire and plunder wildly.

Once the Ming Empire's advanced steam machine tools are in hand, he will be able to get rid of the control of the European Union and embark on the road of supremacy!

Needless to say, he was dreaming.

At this moment, several helicopters were already circling and monitoring tens of miles ahead of him that he couldn't see. They had already been discovered by the defenders on the western front of the Ming Empire.

Cao Bianjiao has handed over the three cities of the Ural Mountains to 30 soldiers from the Southeast Battalion to be stationed there, and the elite of the 50 Beida Battalion have already begun to gather here.

Lu Xiangsheng also handed over the Ural River defense line to 20 soldiers from the Nanyang Battalion, and 50 elite soldiers from the Western Battalion are also gathering here.

Wallenstein managed to get through the passage in the southern part of the Ural Mountains and rushed to the territory of the Xibe Province of the Ming Empire, but what greeted him was a deserted grassland and long-abandoned farmland.

The soldiers of the North Camp and the West Camp have even demolished the settlements outside the Acropolis, and all the materials have been moved inside the Acropolis.

What Wallenstein saw was rows and rows of strange concrete pillars!

To be honest, he was a little confused.

What about the people of the Ming Empire?
He touched the concrete pillar as hard as a stone, and his face was full of puzzlement.

Fortunately, the scouts soon reported that they found the Ming Empire's cities, and they found more than one.

The cities here seem to be quite dense, almost every fifty kilometers or so.

Seeing more and more cities marked on the map, Wallenstein couldn't help showing excitement on his face.

He just wanted to attack the city of the Ming Empire, because it was impossible for people to put steam machine tools outside, and only in the city would there be steam machine tools.

These cities seem to be tailor-made for him, each one is not very big, and it can hold tens of thousands of people at most.

They are an army of 200 million, and it is not easy to attack a city that is stationed by tens of thousands of people at most!
How to attack such a dense city?
Naturally, several cities were attacked at the same time!

Because there are not many people crowded outside a small city, a 40 army can basically encircle a city, and no matter how many people there are, they will be squeezed to the periphery of the city more than ten miles away. It doesn't make sense.

Besides, attacking several adjacent cities at the same time can also prevent people from supporting each other, or running out from nearby cities to attack their rear.

Wallenstein just stared at the map and thought for a while before deciding to divide the 200 million army into five groups and attack the five cities near the exit of the mountain road at the same time.

The battle between the defense line of the Ural Mountains and the defense line of the Ural River is about to begin. What will be the outcome?

This is not yet known.

Because it takes two or three days for Wallenstein's men to rush to the outskirts of the five acropolis, and they don't have any chariots, let alone any siege equipment. If they want to attack the city, they will have to build it for a few days. Siege equipment will do.

At this time, a telegram had already been sent to Multan in the middle reaches of the Indus River. Sun Chengzong, Wen Zhenmeng, Sun Quan and others had already gathered here, waiting for news from the north.

The reason why they chose Multan was because the traffic in Kandahar was too underdeveloped. There were roads, no railways, and no waterways that could connect to the ocean.

Multan is different. There are not only railways built by Delhi and Lahore, but also the Indus River that leads directly to the Indian Ocean. If newspapers are transported by water, it usually takes only four or five days to transport them to the Persian Empire. southern coastline.

If you use the Flying Dragon Battleship, it can be sent there in about two days.

Moreover, it is only about [-] miles away from Kandahar, and it can be reached by horseback riding in a day.

Therefore, this place has long been the logistics base of the southwestern defense line of the Ming Dynasty. Not only are food and materials piled up like mountains, but most of the civil servants who came to assist the southwestern defense line also live here.

In the newly built large-scale printing factory in the city, the warehouses of the printed Persian newspapers have long been filled.

The "Le Monde" they published this time are all special issues, Post issues, and each special issue is only one.

The reason why they compressed the special issue into one sheet is also for the convenience of fighting public opinion.

If it is printed in four or five ordinary sheets, it will take a long time for people to read it, and they will not find the point at all.

Therefore, they simply compressed the special issue into one piece by one, and each special issue has only one theme, so that people can understand it at a glance.

After being compressed into one sheet, the content that can be printed is limited, so everyone should consider it carefully and discuss it carefully.

When Sun Chengzong came in a hurry with the telegram, Wen Zhenmeng and Sun Quan were still discussing the content of the new newspaper with several officials from the Ministry of Rites in the conference room.

When everyone saw Sun Chengzong coming in, they quickly got up to say hello.

Sun Chengzong held up the telegram and said excitedly: "Wenqi, Shaotang, Jiandou sent a telegram. Wallenstein has led his army through the southern Ural Mountains and is preparing to launch an attack on the nearby Acropolis. We can finally Started."

To be honest, he was a little anxious waiting.

Several months have passed, and they are stuck in the harsh environment of Kandahar. They can't fight, they can't rush, and the soldiers are exhausted.

This is good, they can finally start, even if they launch a public opinion war, it will always bring about some changes, right?

Wen Zhenmeng was quite excited when he heard the words: "Master Sun, how do you think we should fight this public opinion war? Should we send all the printed special issues over at once, or send them over in batches?"

Sun Chengzong invited everyone to sit down, looked at the translated special issue, and said solemnly: "I think it's better to distribute it one by one, because it is not easy to disrupt the entire Persian Empire.

After all, the Persian Empire is not a small country, and its territory is quite vast. It may take several days for the contents of these newspapers to spread throughout the Persian Empire.

It is impossible for us to send the printed newspapers there all at once, and it is impossible for the Persian Empire to fall into chaos in one day.

This has to be a process.

Therefore, it is better for us to post a copy every day, so as to maintain the heat and let their anger slowly accumulate, slowly climb, and finally explode. "

Wen Zhenmeng couldn't help nodding when he heard the words: "My lord is still thoughtful. The civil strife in the Persian Empire really needs a period of time to ferment. We really can't act too hastily. Otherwise, we will start today and send out the first special issue." ?”

They have prepared more than a dozen copies of this special issue, each of which has printed 500 million copies.

As for how to distribute it throughout the Persian Empire after sending it there, they have already contacted them.

Although Sajid, the uncle of the country, is not very capable, he still has some friends, and not all of the Persian Empire supports the prince of the Aries Dynasty who suddenly appeared.

Many people were dissatisfied with Milner's militarism after he took office, especially those who knew the strength of the Ming Empire, and they were even more unwilling to fight against the Ming Empire.

In this case, it is very simple for them to find some insiders.

As long as they sent the newspapers to several ports in the southern part of the Persian Empire, people would naturally take them and distribute them everywhere.

The first special issue was sent there, and soon there was an uproar within the Persian Empire.

Because the content of the first special issue is the inside story of the assassination of Emperor Safi, which is why someone wanted to assassinate Emperor Safi.

The original understanding within the Persian Empire was that Emperor Safi was too cruel, so someone took the risk of stabbing Emperor Safi to death.

The first Post published a detailed description of the current world situation and the fact that the European Continental Union was defeated and lost, and it was crazy to launch a war to turn things around.

Obviously, Emperor Safi was assassinated not because Safi was too cruel, but because the European Union or the Ottoman Empire wanted to use the Persian Empire as cannon fodder.

This can be proved by the fact that Milner, the prince of the Aries Dynasty, frantically recruited all the young and strong to fight with the Ming Empire after he came to power.

If the Ming Empire plotted and assassinated Emperor Safi, then things would be reversed.

If the Ming Empire really had a premeditated plan, after the assassination of Emperor Safi, the Ming Empire would definitely overwhelm the country with troops. The Persian Empire didn’t even have enough time to organize resistance. How could it be like this? The Persian Empire has sent troops for several months. Has been maintaining restraint, no hands.

More importantly, Mirza, the little prince of the Persian Empire and the real heir to the throne, fled to the Ming Empire, and the Ming Empire protected him very well.

This further proves that the assassination of Emperor Safi was not the Ming Empire, but the Ottoman Empire.
