Chapter 221: Actions in the Darkness of Night

April 7, 1907, the fourth day since the pirate looting incident.

Ultimately, the incident could not be concealed. Instead of letting the people speculate, it was better to announce it directly, rallying Australasians to unity and public outrage.

The Victoria Newspaper and Australasia Daily widely reported the news of two Australasian merchant ships being looted by pirates, and it quickly became a topic of discussion among the majority of Australasians. It successfully aroused public outrage, demanding that the government dispatch the military immediately to deal with the pirates and rescue the captured Australasian citizens.

For peaceful Australasia, such news was enough to shock the entire nation and its people.

The day after the news report, Prime Minister Evan organized a public meeting, announcing that immediate action would be taken to protect the lives and property of Australasians.
