The first appearance of the American army can be said to be extremely bad and a failure, when the captured flags and documents, etc., were sent to Berlin at the behest of Andrian, and after they were publicly displayed at a rally, demonstrating the strength of the German Empire, they were put away, just a division, and it was just a pleasure.

The news reached Baotou, and after the staff archived this information, it was copied to the leaders as a summary of information, which was originally just a simple matter, but after Yang Yuanzhao saw the report, he suddenly thought of another thing, propaganda weapons.

However, at the beginning of the 20th century, at this time when the focus of confrontation was only with swords and soldiers, it has always been something that countries around the world have not studied much, and countries have mastered weak propaganda offensives, and their grasp of people's hearts is not much worse than that of later generations. did not reflect in time, so that a small problem became more and more intense, and it could not be cleaned up, so it came to deal with it.

In the 21st century, the era of the media, the era of the big explosion of knowledge, and the baptism of the era of eyeball economy, Yang Yuanzhao has paid attention to the field of propaganda since he came to the northwest, and subtly, has formed a certain kind of public opinion in China, and even in other countries of the Allied countries and the Entente, the old and backward state of the Chinese has gradually reversed, and after the news that the US military entered the war and was completely annihilated reached Yang Yuanzhao, he felt that this was an opportunity for the first time.

The United States of America is, nominally, a democracy. Therefore, many democratic rules must be observed, and appropriate propaganda methods must be used. Causing sabotage to the United States will not necessarily make the US military retreat. However, subtly, the United States will gradually reduce its strength, and in the end, it will not necessarily make the United States suffer a big loss, but will also make him very troublesome.

Yang Yuanzhao wrote several telegrams, signed his special label, and then published them, after the intelligence bureau and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs turned around. Went to Germany.

The relationship between the Northwest and Germany is extremely close, and the Northwest is Germany's only foreign aid outside Europe, plus several judgments, the Northwest has given a very professional judgment, which has helped Germany reduce a lot of losses, and therefore, Germany attaches great importance to the things forwarded by the Northwest, especially with the label of Yang Yuanzhao, which represents the suggestion of China's leader. Even Wilhelm II could not have taken it lightly.

But after reading it, I was disappointed, and it was written very simply. Let Germany publish all the news of the total annihilation of the US military in its own newspapers and in other newspapers that it can influence, and the more detailed the better. China will also publicize this as much as it can within the scope of its influence.

What is this. Although it is said to promote the strength of Germany, so many connections can be used. It's just to promote this one, it's meaningless, not to talk about the whole of Europe, just to say that near Bordeaux, there are more than 4 million enemy and our troops, and the daily losses are extremely staggering, and a mere division is nothing.

The next day, some major newspapers in Germany, the newspapers of the Allies, all published this article, and as for others, only a few newspapers in Britain, France, and the United States published it, and the power they used was small, and the effect of propaganda was not high.

Fortunately, with the help of China, some of the funds arranged by Huazi and Yang Yuanzhao have quietly entered various fields in the United States, and newspapers and other media are also the focus, and even the emerging radio stations are also secret channels for Chinese-funded capital, and they have not used all their strength, but there are 10 newspapers with considerable influence in the region, and 2 divisions are distributed nationwide. Although there are no photos or anything like that, the data and each step are quite detailed.

The outbreak of the European war, there are casualties every day, there are battles every day, the news, the news is not much, the people in Europe are numb and not interested, but in the United States, the news of the landing of American soldiers in Europe is still quite eye-catching, the US government has carried out a lot of foreshadowing, made a lot of preparations, and has already agitated the kind of participation in the European war, the elimination of the axis of evil Germany understanding, almost everyone knows.

In this case, most of the people think that American GIs go to Europe for a vacation, and millions of American GIs can win a victory by touring around Europe, but the real thing is bloody and put there, 3 hours, a division, 12,000 people were wiped out, this is only a part of the battlefield, on the huge battlefield of the Battle of Bordeaux, there are at least 4 million British, French and German troops, constantly fighting here, their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, and the United States came in, not even a dish, just as a soft persimmon pinched.

Germany did not pay much attention to this matter, since it was related to the northwest, after doing this thing, or collected a round of feedback, when this feedback came, Germany did not dare to be careless, just a few small packets of paper, but in the area affected by the newspaper, it resonated, several northwest and Germany-controlled newspaper sales, have been greatly improved on this day.

The United States is a commercial society, and it does not attach so much importance to national interests, since this news makes money, then no one will be left behind, after the sales of small newspapers have increased, they are quickly reprinted by large newspapers, and the things that the people care about, as long as there is economic value, the boss of the newspaper will not care about anything fifty, eighty or forty, and will talk about it after it is published first.

Newspapers controlled by the Northwest and Germany, even if they were distributed nationally, did not have a large circulation, and after seven of the top 10 newspapers in the United States retweeted the news, the news really caused a sensation in the United States. The United States conscripts 3 million, which is not a large proportion in terms of the current population of the United States, and almost everyone has Americans who have joined the army, and in the government's propaganda, these people are for justice and easily solve problems.

Now the problem is back, according to what the newspaper said, it is not the case at all, the combat effectiveness of the American army is too poor, 12,000 people in 3 hours, how many hours does it take for 3 million, 7,500 hours, that is, about a year, these are all young men in their prime, and it seems that they are all going to die in Europe.

Under the gimmick set off by the tabloids, the big newspapers have also followed suit, and now they dare to write anything, the data and calculations are plausible, but it sounds like a matter, but in fact, the US military only lost 12,000 people, which is not much compared to the overall number, not even 2%, which is nothing in the war.

In this way, waves of propaganda offensives have triggered a huge discussion on the American side, Germany saw the cheap, and also joined in, the natural advantage of white people, so that the Germans in the United States small movements more smooth, the best understanding of a country, will always be the enemy of this country, in Germany control does not know the tabloid, detonated another thing, due to the attack of German submarines, at least 150,000 people, without crossing the Atlantic, directly sank to the west coast of the United States.

This is a big news, the news of the European war itself is quite eye-catching, the total number of personnel in this news is too large, in the previous loss of the division, the loss of personnel is nothing, the people are concerned about why the defeat is so fast, even three hours did not resist, but then this more exciting news, 12,000 is nothing, 150,000 can not be nothing, combined with every family, this is almost the direct influence of 600,000 people, millions, or even tens of millions of indirect influence.

The situation began to be chaotic, the news of the tabloids, at the beginning the big newspapers were just waiting, but with this public opinion becoming more and more fierce, more and more people paying attention, almost all the newspapers have joined in this feast of public opinion, this is the victory of public opinion, but also the glory of the newspaper industry, almost every newspaper enterprise involved in it, sales have risen sharply.

Newspapers, radio, people's word of mouth, a storm was formed, many families with relatives to join the army, began to ask, what happened to their children, whether it was really the newspaper said, died in vain on the transport ship, and even the corpses were thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

The U.S. Department of the Army was immediately overwhelmed, and all kinds of inquiries, questions, and even requests came like snowflakes, and the Chief of Staff of the Army had never experienced such an emergency, and the Chief of Staff of the Army was anxious, and at this time, the big newspapers obtained information from the War Department, and almost leaked a tenth of the list of the dead.

Although it is only a tenth, But the absolute amount is as high as 16,000 people, the newspaper, with a special special issue, with a neat arrangement, each name is written in detail, looking at the black names on the newspaper, neatly arranged, that kind of shock, so that the Washington Post suddenly became the focus of the entire United States, but also opened the War Department and the General Staff of the tragedy, behind each name, on behalf of a family, a pair of sad parents, or wives and children, that afternoon, there were people demonstrating in front of the Army Department, and then, the whole Washington, New York, there were tens of thousands of large-scale demonstrations, and the influence gradually expanded.

Because China and Germany secretly intervened, such a fire was ignited, and in the United States it became a prairie fire, and when the power of the American state noticed this, they all wisely retreated and wiped out all traces of their own hands, leaving no clues, leaving only a messy battlefield of public opinion and a scorched United States.
