Li Mengyang's exposure of these black spots to the current senior government officials of the United States is of course a political attack, and these attacks are actually...

It is inevitable that everyone has black spots, no one is perfect.

But it depends on how to use it, or in other words, Li Mengyang must use it now, and he can't do it without it. If he doesn't say it's so grand and noble, how can he be right to the people?

Really, if you want the general public to support you, you have to do this. If you don’t scold your opponent to death, you will still be able to succeed?

Besides, did the United States curse him as the emperor of the empire in the past?

A few days ago, he called him a monster, and even racist remarks often appeared in newspapers, such as the Chinese (hink), and people's mouths are very damaged these days.

Of course, as soon as this empire took Washington, these media outlets changed their minds and sang praises to Li Mengyang.

"Clint Lee, a great hero!"

"Clint Lee, not only has extremely high talent, but also makes people respect the leader!"

"The slander of the past is simply disgusting! As it turns out, the United States needs a great emperor like Clint Lee!"

What glory, what greatness, what... Anyway, you can find good words from the dictionary, and some people even directly invented it, calling Li Mengyang the "golden sun" and yellow skin... To be honest, it really sounds a bit like the "J-8 Permanent Motion Machine".

This is the moral integrity of the media, but these newspapers’ actions actually reflect one thing. That is, there are still not enough people in the Imperial Army today!

It is a mistake to not control these newspapers as soon as possible.

But fortunately, the propaganda minister like Liszt has been promoting, so how can he not understand this thing? He soon brought some individuals to control some well-known newspapers, such as the Star, the Washington Branch of the London Times, and these newspapers.

Of course, many people ran away, such as William Russell, who had scolded Clint Lee before. Yes, the one who was confiscated by Li Mengyang's revolutionary army at that time, it would be a big mistake for him not to run away, and he couldn't run slowly.

Then why do you control these newspapers?

"You bastards! A bunch of flattering villains! Can you please praise His Majesty the Emperor?..."

Liszt gathered all the people in charge who could be found in these newspapers, and then pointed at the nose and scolded them one by one. At this time, he didn't say how he sang praises to the emperor at all. He said you are not worthy!

Just scolding like this, no one dares to say anything. They are like eggplants made from frosted, but we can't just scold them, right?

"To your Majesty, we must make a fair comment! And to that illegal government of the United States, we must use the greatest strength to criticize and criticize!"

To put it bluntly, it is to turn the guns around and launch an inhumane public opinion attack on Lincoln's government.

So, do this attack have some entry points?

Lincoln is also an elected president no matter how much he said he was elected. Of course, his cabinet was also elected, and it should be very popular. So besides the dark history mentioned by His Majesty the Emperor, is there any dark place now?

"Dear sir! We have really been waiting for you for a long time! It's been a matter of waiting for you! The Lincoln government's rule is simply brutal! They levy heavy taxes! They don't give the people freedom!"

"That's right! These bastards are simply acting like a mighty person! Just say that the prices in Washington are soaring, but these bastards are still continuing to issue treasury bonds! It's simply outrageous!"

"They carried out a cruel suppression of the lower classes! The people needed cotton coats and food. They just conducted demonstrations, but as a result, a large number of military and police came out to beat and arrest people! The prisons are now full!"

I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it!

Liszt originally heard that Lincoln is a good president and the government is operating well, but now, the people from these newspapers are talking about it one by one, and they can’t finish it. Lincoln has too much tyranny!

In fact, many of these things are due to recent economic problems. Currency has been over-issued on a large scale, resulting in soaring prices. You should know that the Lincoln government issued paper money just at the beginning of the civil war. It was the one that Chase and Li Mengyang had. This is the national debt.

The civil war has been fighting for so many years, and this national debt has never stopped. Recently, Wall Street has cheated Chase because of this aluminum incident. Just this time, the over-issuance of currency has increased by at least 1 billion US dollars!

This order of magnitude is not as simple as addition or subtraction. Because the price of treasury bonds is falling, so if you want to reach a certain level, the issuance volume will actually double and no one can control it.

How much GDP does the United States have in its entirety?

There are no statistics now, but it is definitely not up to $10. Li Mengyang knows that in the later Gilded Age, the tycoon Vanderbilt's net worth was equivalent to one percent of the GDP of the United States at that time, but his assets at most were $100 million. You know, it was decades later, the end of the American Civil War, and then it also went through a very good period of great development.

Therefore, the currency is just soaring now. The real value of US dollar banknotes is probably almost the same as the price of this "paper". It's just that because of information problems and because the United States itself has some local problems, it has not completely collapsed, but Washington is really not good!

As the people go on, they will make trouble, go out on the streets, smash and loot.

Lincoln had no other way, he had to send military and police to suppress it, and at this time... let's not talk about this time, the American police more than 100 years later were also cruel enough, right?

Therefore, bloody things are absolutely indispensable. How can people from this newspaper company not know about it?

Moreover, if you want to talk about some of the previous policies, there are many people who have problems!

Civil war, do you need to recruit soldiers?

At the beginning of the civil war, everyone's enthusiasm for joining the army was really high. At that time, it happened to be a financial crisis. At least there was food to join the army. Besides, there were really many people who had great patriotism for this country, which was true.

However, the civil war has been fighting for several years and the economic crisis has temporarily passed, and patriotism is simply boring. Isn’t it just burning, killing, looting?

Therefore, the recruitment encountered a big problem. At first, it was a volunteer soldier, but later it had to be forced to recruit. This forced recruitment was quite interesting.

All men who meet the age need to draw lots. Those aged 25-45 will have to serve for three years as long as they are drawn. Don’t forget, Lincoln said at the beginning. It’s done in three months. Now it’s 3 years!

If everyone is fair, then they will accept it and serve the country if they win. However, because the Lincoln government is also tight, they thought of a solution, which is, 'As long as anyone can pay $300, they can be exempted from military service'!

300 US dollars was a considerable amount before, and ordinary people could not afford it. In other words, those who were "sucked" were all poor people, and those who paid the money.

Not only are you rich, but you are more famous guys!

Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt's father both paid the money, JP Morgan also paid the money, Andrew Carnegie also paid the money... To put it bluntly, no one wants to go to the battlefield, and these individuals are all called elites.

Oh, don’t you go to the battlefield, let us ordinary people work hard? Farke!

How can you not scold me?

This is a very bad leading role. From the civic system in ancient Greece, you have to fulfill your obligations after you enjoy the rights. At that time, the rich people also went to the battlefield, and everyone brought their own equipment. At that time, citizens were divided into different levels. But now, with the development of society to this day, these upper classes are afraid of death, and they are not fulfilling any obligations. It is strange that the people have no resentment.

However, these matters have been discussed very little, and there are not many newspapers. The Lincoln government has put pressure on it and scolded the most are some members of parliament. It is obvious that they all talk about this matter from a political perspective, which party member.

And there are so many, so many... It's just a bunch of black spots!

When Liszt saw this situation, he was so happy that he couldn't stop laughing. He was going to make some things, but now he saw that there was no need to do it at all. We just report it in a realistic way. Once the lid was opened, it would be great.

This is the battlefield of public opinion. You must know that the Imperial Army had just entered Washington at this time, and they really had not yet gained a foothold. The Imperial Army was far away and there were not many people. Therefore, this public opinion war is very important!

You should know that the imperial front was already very long at this time, and the previous places were easy to deal with because they were not large. Just talk about Texas, leaving some people behind and then using some local armed forces, such as the surrendered James brothers, which is basically enough.

But now, in the east, the population here is relatively dense. The Imperial Army has only tens of thousands of people, and there are more than 200,000 prisoners. How can this be controlled?

Therefore, the public opinion war must be strengthened!

In addition, that is the current economic situation. One of the major factors that the Lincoln government was driven away was that there were economic problems. Washington actually had a shortage of materials.

Needless to say, rich people are still OK, and all those who can run away have run away, but what should the people do? What if the people don’t talk about the people, what should they do if they are the more than 200,000 prisoners?

So, at this time, the emperor Li Mengyang played a great role.

He is the emperor, he is centralized. Even if I say that, he can easily concentrate all the materials and conduct military control, at least to ensure everyone’s basic living materials!

Don't underestimate this matter. If Lincoln wants to use this method, it would be hard to use it, because he is an elected president and he does not have such extreme rights. If he wants to do this, he has to pass some temporary bills, which is much slower in the process, so he chose to continue issuing more currencies before, which is relatively easier.

But now, of course, there is still a shortage of supplies, and I have to wait, that is, I need to be transported from the railway. Fortunately, the empire has controlled several major railway lines, and the tricks used are still the same as before, buying, buying, but now they don’t charge US dollars.

These supplies can be waited, but some things can't be waited... (To be continued...)
