2125 Borrowing the East Wind

At the mouth of the Thames, the Zhiyuan and the British Victory drove side by side, and the bow of the ship pierced the water surface and drew long white waves in the wide river channel.

Xiao Letian and Zaichun stood side by side at the bow of the boat and received cheers from the British people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Towns, villages, factories, workshops... almost all put down their work, and even the most harsh factory owners could not stop the enthusiasm of the hired workers.

Everyone came out to see this unprecedented bustle, with crowds surrounding the riverside.

"Long live! Long live His Majesty the Emperor...Long live the Head of State!"

"Long live the British Empire! Long live the Queen..."

The sound of long live comes like waves. Xiao Letian and Zai Chun waving arms were almost exhausted, but no one dared to let down the enthusiasm of the British people because they knew very well that in order to hype the curiosity of the European people about this diplomatic event, Xiao Letian did countless tasks.

Zaichun looked at the crowds of people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and whispered to the master, "It's so amazing. Is this the power of the oriental series of reports you made? I really don't understand, why do those things we are used to attract Europeans so much?"

"Culture, only culture has such charm! Since ancient times, China's porcelain, silk, tea and other precious goods have been treasures that Westerners dream of. Although in this era, the halo of the East has been destroyed because of war..."

"However, the people still have the habit of respecting the East. In the hearts of many people, the short-term failure of the war does not represent the complete defeat of the ancient empire of China..."

"It's easy to think about it carefully. In general, the land of Europe has more wars than peace. Does that nation have few ups and downs? Take Prussia for example. Tsarist Russia and France have been cleaned up many times before, and there are countless defeats of all sizes..."

"But how is it now? It's not that I have restored my dignity through a series of victories!"

"The same is true when it comes to China. In the hearts of ordinary people, including many elites, the ancient empire with thousands of years of civilization is vast and has a large population. The failure of several small wars is actually just a small bumpy period in the country's destiny..."

"They still respect China very much, because none of them are sure that China will have a great outbreak in the war that follows? It is very likely..."

"Is France awesome? Napoleon swept Europe and fought the anti-French alliance in a terrifying way, but wasn't it Waterloo in the end? Then was Waterloo the end of France's national destiny? Of course not. Didn't Crimea win again later?"

"Victory and defeat are common things for military strategists! So you have to rest assured that Europeans still have a strong sense of awe for China under the arrogance..."

Zaichun made Xiao Letian's eyes lit up, and at that time he silently swore in his heart that he must grit his teeth during the negotiations and that Britain should not take too much advantage.

Xiao Letian saw all the changes in Zaichun's expression. He sighed silently in his heart, "Child, there are only so many things I can encourage you. I hope you don't mislead yourself and don't fall into the British plan! Even if you want to sell the country, you have to sell less..."

This time, Xiao Letian only half of the teachings of Zaichun, which means that he did not tell the little emperor in the second half.

The psychology of the European people analyzed by Xiao Letian is correct. At this moment, Europe still has great respect for China. The failure of several consecutive wars has only been a matter of decades. That nation in European history has never experienced such ups and downs.

In the minds of many European politicians, as long as the Qing Dynasty came to power, a strong monarch could carry out reforms in depth, it was not impossible to come from behind, and its foundation was too strong.

However, Xiao Letian still has not finished his second half of the sentence, which is that this illusory appearance cannot be exposed. What China is most afraid of now is to be defeated by very weak opponents, especially Asian opponents.

It is not embarrassing to lose in the hands of Europeans. Europeans themselves also know that weapons and tactics are not in the same era, but the Qing Dynasty must not lose in the hands of Asian countries.

If such a thing happens, even if the painted skin that was finally disguised, the whole of Europe will be stunned and will understand that China has long been rotten to no atonement, and the caution and respect of the past are all worrying.

"Zaichun, in this era, no Japanese are coming to tear your Qing Dynasty's skins. Let's wait for me to tear them..."

At this moment, Wang Huaiyuan suddenly came over and whispered, "It's almost eight o'clock. If there is no surprise in the plan, Leo, Pierre and the others should start..."

"What to start?" Zaichun's ears were quite clever.

"Haha, the east wind..." Xiao Letian smiled faintly, "I will not only see the west wind rising east! I will also borrow the east wind Esau Europa!"

"I have not completely conquered the people of London today. From now on, I will write the word "Xiao" upside down! Zaichun, please see, when we arrive at Tower Bridge at nine o'clock, I will show you a good show!"

The bell tower of Westminster Abbey is the general director's department for a normal show. At this moment, the two executives were ready to shiver their eyes and their excitement were shining.

"All the information is correct. Benjamin's arrogant personality made him underestimate the event. He really only speculated on the size of 200,000 people!"

"Look at the police force he arranged and the chaos now, this shows that he had never guessed that 400,000 people would rush to the streets from the beginning!"

"In the hot summer, the chaotic streets, the crowds of people, and inefficient management... it will naturally cause countless unexpected conflicts. At this moment, the hearts of these 400,000 people are almost exploding!"

"Now, there are only two ways to solve this chaos. One is to double the number of military and police who maintain order, and through strong organizational capabilities, the people can restore order..."

"The second method is to remove the firewood from the cauldron, which can change the emotions of the people in an instant, at least ejaculate their anxious anger. As long as their hearts are filled with cool wind, everyone can be calm and purified. Then let alone the gathering of 400,000 people, even 500,000 people will not be confused..."

"Is the time here? We will act on time at 8 o'clock... Borrow the east wind! Borrow a cool wind in the east, so that these London citizens who were fooled by the fog and smoke could see the true oriental charm!"
