After receiving domestic instructions, the trade negotiations between East China and Germany also came to an end, and East China accepted Germany's request to transfer military technology and design warships, but increased the number of technologies required to be transferred by Germany by 10 to 27. Because East China believes that although Germany's request can be agreed, it will suffer a loss if it only asks Germany to transfer 17 technologies, so after consultation, 10 more items were added.

But after receiving the request of East China, Germany didn't even hit a stalk, and immediately agreed to all of them. Because Germany did not expect that East China would agree to Germany's request, you must know that military technology is the highest level of technology in any country, and it will not be transferred easily, not to mention that Germany requires the most advanced military technology in this era, so Germany estimates that the best result is that East China will agree to transfer half, even if it is only a third of the technology, Germany thinks it can be satisfied. And East China ** actually agreed, that can not make Germany ecstatic, not to mention that East China ** has added 10 more technologies that Germany is required to transfer, even if there are 20 more, Germany will agree, and does not think that it is a loss.

Since both sides agreed to each other's conditions, then the next thing was easy to do, and the two sides immediately began to determine the terms one by one, and finally formed a complete agreement clause, and then signed a contract, and also completed a major task of East China's visit to Germany.

As soon as the New Year's Day holiday ended, Gu Hongming took the cultural group to carry out a tour visit, and in Germany's education and cultural circles, Gu Hongming was warmly welcomed by universities and educational and cultural circles in Germany.

Of course, Gu Hongming's speech is indeed expected, when East China ** and Germany signed a trade agreement, Gu Hongming made 12 speeches in Germany, although the content is to promote Chinese culture, exposing and criticizing the shortcomings and limitations of European culture, but the angles, viewpoints, and positions are different, so none of them are repeated, it can be said that each speech has new content, so many people are continuously chasing the field to listen to Gu Hongming's speech.

Although other people in the cultural group are a little dissatisfied with this, first, their own level is not enough, Gu Hongming's speeches are conducted in German, and many European allusions are quoted, and the language is humorous, full of fun, others really can't do this; second, it is also the persuasion of Yan Fu, the deputy leader of the group, Yan Fu's personality is generous, although Gu Hongming has stolen the limelight from everyone, but after all, he represents China, so the greater his honor, the actual even the face of the people has a light.

On the other hand, according to domestic instructions, Xu Jichao and Li Sanjie also decided to visit Austria-Hungary; after the end of their visit to Austria-Hungary, Li Sanjie will visit the Ottoman Empire by sea from Austria-Hungary; while Xu Jichao will visit Italy, then return to Germany, and visit Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and other countries in the next step.

Germany is also very satisfied with the arrangement of such a visit to East China, because East China is based in Germany to visit Europe, which is obviously to regard Germany as the most important and special country, and the first two countries to visit, one is Germany's closest ally Austria-Hungary, and the other is Italy, one of the members of the Allied Powers, which can be regarded as giving Germany a lot of face.

As for East China's visit to the Ottoman Empire, Germany has no objection, because now Germany is also actively working in the Ottoman Empire, so Germany has also given great support to East China's foreign visit.

In addition to the international students, only the members of the military team remained in Berlin.

Military exchanges are one of the important contents of East China's visit to Germany, and trade negotiations are on a par with trade negotiations, and in Germany's view, military exchanges with East China are better than trade negotiations, in addition to hoping to get East China's military technology, Germany also hopes to understand the detailed process of the war in the Far East.

The Far Eastern War was the largest and most technologically advanced war ever fought so far, and it had both land and sea battlefields, so after the war ended, it naturally became a war that the military of various countries focused on studying. By its power like Germany, the United States, Austria-Hungary, Italy.

However, the Far Eastern War has just ended, and the details of the war have not yet been made public by the countries participating in the war, and the other countries certainly know very little about the overall situation of the Far Eastern War. In fact, it was the countries that participated in the war, excluding countries such as Britain, France, and the Netherlands, which participated in the war in the later period, even Russia and Japan, which participated in the whole war, did not have full control over the detailed process of the war. This is due to the fact that after East China participated in the war, the Far East War was actually divided into two battlefields, and East China was at war with Japan and Russia respectively, so both Japan and Russia only knew the battlefield situation in which they participated, and the battlefield of the other side could only be known in the exchanges after the end of the war.

However, even if this is the case, Japan and Russia can only know the tactical trends of their own side, and the troop situation, tactical arrangement, and strategic thinking of East China can only be inferred from the course of the war after the end of the war, but due to the lack of relevant information in their possession, this inference can only lead to partially correct results, and some of the results are far from the facts.

Only East China is the only country that can grasp the details of all the process of the war in the Far East, not only because East China participated in all the battlefield wars after its own participation in the war, but also because East China captured a large number of Japanese and Russian soldiers on the battlefield, including many middle and senior officers, as well as a large number of documents. Before entering the war, the overall situation of the Russo-Japanese War was basically clear.

Germany is particularly concerned about the details of the Far East War, because the three members of the Entente, Russia, France, and Britain are the participants in this war, which is Russia, and it is a deep participant in this war, Germany hopes to fully understand Russia's war capabilities through the Far East War, and the navy of East China is almost completely defeated by the British Navy of the expeditionary fleet, this result makes Germany convincing, Wilhelm II is even more envious and jealous, and the German Navy naturally wants to know the details of the defeat of the expeditionary fleet in East China. Therefore, before the delegation departed, Germany also made a special request to East China, hoping that during this military exchange, East China would be able to provide all the detailed information on the course of the war in the Far East.

For Germany's request, East China ** did not refuse, after all, these materials in the hands of the hand is not much use, it is better to exchange some technology with Germany, so East China ** also specially compiled a [Far East War Information Encyclopedia], full of more than 800 pages, and equipped with more than 30 maps, a detailed record of the whole process of the war, of course, do not want Germany to know the part, have come up with other plans to mix up, after the delegation to participate in the Christmas dinner, handed over to the German General Staff.

After Germany received this information, it was naturally ecstatic, but because this information was written in Chinese, the German General Staff immediately arranged for people to translate, fortunately, in recent years, the relationship between Germany and East China ** has become closer, and the demand for Chinese talents has also increased greatly, to the point that many detailed personnel who are proficient in Chinese have been trained, and everyone divided this information into dozens of parts, and worked together overnight, and it took only 1 week to make this [Far East War Data Collection] The translation was completed, and the typesetting was printed, and after the New Year's holiday, the first batch of 300 copies came out.

However, of course, Germany also knew the value of this information, so Wilhelm II ordered that this information be classified as a German third-class secret, and only officers above the rank of major general were qualified to read it, only admirals could borrow it to read, and others could only read it in the reading room. Of course, Wilhelm II himself left a copy and read it carefully. At the same time, the mission's military team also spends two hours a day answering relevant questions.

During this period, the main activities of the military group were to visit arsenals, shipyards, ports, barracks, soldier training exercises, etc., and held three meetings with the German General Staff, mainly discussing the army's structure, tactics, weapons, etc., but they were only general talks, and did not conduct any profound discussions.

After three days, the first batch of readers have read it and basically understood the entire process of the Far East War, so the two sides began to carry out the second-order exchanges, which is the summary of the Far East War in East China, and the content of this aspect is recorded in the [Far East War Data Collection], but it is not detailed, after all, the summary of such a large-scale and protracted war cannot be completed in a short time, and the Far East War has a significant impact on Asia, The impact on the world will take at least 10 years, or even longer, to be apparent, and the summary mentioned by the military group now only represents the summary results of the war in the Far East in East China at this stage. In addition, after reading the "Encyclopedia of Far Eastern War Materials", the German side must have its own ideas about this war, and it is also included in the scope of exchanges.

The exchange was divided into two parts, the army and the navy, because in the Far East War, except for the later landing of the People's Army in Japan, the war on the land and sea lines was basically divided into two battlefields, although the results of the war on the land and sea would affect each other, such as East China** The Battle of Tsushima, which was fought when it first entered the war, annihilated the navies of Japan and Russia in one fell swoop, thus taking control of sea power, and cutting off the connection between the Japanese mainland and the Far East battlefield, and also reduced the pressure on the land battlefield. But there has been almost no real interaction between the land and sea fronts.

In the current summary and exchange of this war, of course, there is no need to bring the army and navy together to discuss it, and it is better to exchange them separately.
