New Ming Empire mixed in America
Chapter 355 Flyers and Free Newspapers
Lin looked at the fire rain falling from the sky for the second time with a pale face. This time he had lost his calmness.
Most of this rain of fire was concentrated within the confines of the White House, causing this iconic building that was burned once during the Revolutionary War and later painted with white paint to burn again.
Not only the White House, but also the Capitol building near the square began to burn.
Residents in the city have given up fighting the fire and started running away from the fire point.
Because when the barrel bombs fell just now, many residents within the range of the fire rain were affected.
The terrifying flames can only be avoided by taking off the clothes on the body and pouring a lot of water on it.
But there are only a few such lucky people, so most of the affected residents were burned to death in agony.
This time, more white umbrellas floated in the air. At this time, the barrel bombs linked below were no longer barrel bombs as tall as a person, but small incendiary bombs only half a meter high.
The three airships that set off from the Xinming Empire this time were all loaded with incendiary bombs.
This is one of the reasons why Li Mingqi said that they will always be remembered in history, because as long as there is one mistake, the pilots on these airships will not be able to come back.
As all the incendiary bombs were dropped at once, the observers on the airship began to use cameras to record this rare scene.
The entire central area of Washington is burning. Fortunately, the residential areas around the White House are far enough away, otherwise a bigger fire would have occurred this time.
Now only a small number of residents' houses have been set alight, and almost all of these unfortunate houses belong to wealthy people.
The civilian areas were affected much less. Firstly, they had no chance to live near the White House. Secondly, the airship did not target them.
The fire lasted for a whole day. When the fire was extinguished, the history of burning the White House seemed to be repeated again.
Because the exterior wall of the White House is made of stone, only a small part collapsed when the fire was extinguished, and the main body was still intact.
Due to improper handling by rescue workers, the interior was ignited by the third wave of incendiary bombs. It then continued to spread and the White House turned black again.
"Mr. President, this is the leaflet dropped by the Oriental's big balloon after it flew away..."
A mounted policeman handed a stack of leaflets collected in his hand to Lin.
Look at the words printed on it, 'Helping the Mexicans, war criminals of the Xin Ming Empire, is an enemy of the Xin Ming Empire. This is your punishment...'
'This is all the result of your president. Your president continues to provoke the Xinming Empire, slanders it in newspapers, and even sends troops to jointly lead the British...'
Especially the phrase "joining forces to lead heroes" made Lin's body sway twice.
You must know that because of the British aid to the Confederacy, he often called on people to boycott British industrial products in newspapers or during public speeches.
Now he turns around and hooks up with Dai Ying, sending troops to help Dai Ying during the war with the Confederacy. This is a farce no matter how you look at it.
Lin could imagine how the newspapers would report these things about him next.
And not only newspapers in the federation, but also the Southern League, even the entire Europe and all countries in the world will report this matter.
Burn the White House. The capital of a country is under attack and has no power to fight back.
Last time when the capital of Peru was captured by the Xinming Empire and given to Chile, newspapers around the world reported it like crazy.
Now they are the overlord of North America, a country that once gained independence from Dai Ying, and has recently been clamoring for war with Dai Ying.
The capital was unexpectedly attacked by Orientals from as far away as the West Coast, and just when all Americans' vows to prevent the White House from being attacked were still ringing in their ears, the White House was once again burned to black.
It is conceivable that in the future, he will continue to be mentioned as a president and make headlines together with the second fall of the White House.
Not only that, the new aircraft developed by the Easterners this time may also be mentioned repeatedly by various countries.
And every time this kind of aircraft is mentioned, their achievements will definitely be mentioned.
And someone from Talin will definitely appear in a supporting role to give this aircraft its name.
And that damn Mexican government-in-exile. Now those Easterners attribute this attack to his protecting Mexicans.
The people will not consider whether this is good for the federation. They will only say that he caused this to happen for the sake of the Mexicans.
His prestige, the glory he achieved in this first war against the Confederacy, and the reputation of the declarations he issued among the people.
They will all be disgraced because of what happened this time.
Even wealthy people who had their families burned to death or lost their homes would not look kindly on him.
Originally, he was at odds with these capitalists because of his issuance of green banknotes. Now that they have this handle, there will definitely be new twists and turns on the issue of green banknotes.
Some readers may think that it is natural for the government to issue banknotes, but in the United States, this kind of thing is not accepted by capitalists.
From the perspective of the financial oligarchs, Lin’s government’s issuance of green coins is robbing them of their golden jobs, because they were the ones issuing the U.S. dollars before, so the green coins must be destroyed.
And this war between the government and the capitalists ended with the victory of the capitalists in 1994.
"Do we need to ask people to hand in this flyer?" the mounted police officer asked carefully after seeing Lin's face.
"What to hand over? This is an Eastern conspiracy!" Lin roared angrily, and then ignored the sightless mounted policeman.
"Quickly, go find the newspaper reporter. I have something important to announce..."
Lin grabbed George Sharp's arm and asked him to arrange for reporters to report.
"Now those reporters are blocked by the militiamen. If they are allowed in..."
George Sharp did not go to do it immediately, but gestured to the white...black palace... behind someone Lin.
Lin took a deep breath, thought for a long time, nodded and said, "Let them come over. The atrocities of the Orientals must be spread through newspapers!"
"Also, try to let them focus their reports on the cruelty of the Orientals and the airships, and try not to let them publicize the leaflets."
After saying that, Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he can suppress it for a while, he will find other ways to divert people's attention.
For example, develop your own airship, and then go to the Easterners' territory to bomb it.
Otherwise, the impact of this incident will definitely be a stain on him, which will be a huge disaster for his future political career.
But his speed was still a step slower, during the time when he blocked the reporter.
Two newspapers suddenly published special editions about the incident, and they distributed them free of charge.
It not only gave a 'detailed and fair explanation' of how Lin provoked the Xinming Empire because of the Mexicans.
The fact that firefighters would rather save the White House stables than help residents put out the fire was made public, and there were even photos.
On one side of the newspaper were photos of firefighters working in front of the White House stables, and on the other side were photos of fires in residential areas without any firefighters in sight.
Finally, below, there are militiamen shooting in the air on the rooftops of the wealthy areas, while the civilian areas are empty and there is not even a mounted policeman.
There are even photos of residential areas after they were attacked by solid bullets, and the words "Seventh Washington Militia" engraved on the solid bullets stained with blood donations are very eye-catching.
