News of the victory over the Union Army soon reached the ears of Frederick II.
For him, this is a happy event.
There has been little progress on his side, and it can even be said that it has basically stagnated.
And before that, the 24,000 troops led by Wedel were defeated by the Russian-Austrian coalition forces in the Oder River Basin.
The people of Prussia were suppressed in the pain after the defeat.
They now desperately need a big win to shock people's hearts.
There is no doubt that his brother, Prince Ferlandi, sent him this news.
Frederick II immediately ordered the domestic media to immediately start publicity and trumpet the victory of this war.
In these reports, there was no mention of Ling Chen's contribution to leading the Long Yan Army.
When the news reached Ferlandi's ears, he looked embarrassed.
Without the help of the Long Yan Army, they would definitely fail in this battle.
The main force of the attack was the Longyan Army, and the main force of the blockade was their Prussian troops.
As a result, they faced the defeated Union Army and were defeated by the opponent, allowing a considerable number of Union Army troops to escape.
In the publicity of this victory, Prince Ferlandi believed that it would be a perfect victory except for the defeat of their Prussian troops.
But the fact is...
Ling Chen also received the news of the Prussian army's great victory that was widely publicized by Prussia. Ling Chen did not pay any attention to this news.
For him, no amount of propaganda from Prussia would hinder him.
However, Diana was strongly dissatisfied with Prussia's propaganda.
"Obviously our troops are fighting in the main coalition forces, but now they have all the credit!"
Diana slammed the newspaper in her hand onto the table.
She drew the map.
The military intelligence is provided by them.
The main force of the ambush and attack was also done by their Long Yan Army.
She breathed out and looked at Ling Chen angrily and puzzled.
"General, you should do something, this is so unfair!"
Ling Chen glanced at Diana, who was feeling angry in her chest, poured her a cup of Long Yan's tea, and handed it over: "Calm down, it's not a big deal."
Diana glanced at the teacup, then at Ling Chen who was indifferent, and sat over, frowning but staring at him aggrievedly: "General, I feel unfair for our Long Yan Army."
Ling Chen waved his hand: "There is nothing unfair. Frederick II needs a victory in the battle to stabilize the people's hearts."
"This victory is just right."
Diana added: "But they can't erase all the achievements of our Long Yan. Look at this newspaper, there is no information about us at all."
"Everyone is talking about how heroic Prince Ferlandi fought, but I just can't get angry about this."
Ling Chen picked it up and took a look at it, then threw it on the table and said lightly: "Is it because of this?"
"It can't be because of anything."
"It's just a newspaper. It has no impact on the morale of our Long Yan Army. It doesn't even affect my drinking tea."
"Diana, even if it's newspaper propaganda, can we just ignore it the next time the coalition attacks again?"
Diana was speechless for a moment and had nothing to say.
Ling Chen sat over, and Diana twisted her body to avoid it, turning her face away.
Ling Chen sat down on her side again, put his hand on Diana's shoulder, and said softly: "It is another person who is more resentful and impatient than us now."
"Don't forget, the initiative on the battlefield is now in our hands. Although we have repelled the advance troops of the coalition this time, but next time, without our Long Yan Army, how will their Prussian troops fight?"
"Besides, the main reason why we fight is not to see who has the greater merit, but to stabilize Hanover's security. That's what you said."
