1858 Crown Prince Edward
The murderous words made the room shudder, and Sir Eric even shivered, and the queen and his eldest son Edward looked at each other, both a little puzzled as to why Benjamin was so unusual. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Benjamin was the successor to Prime Minister Derby, and for many years before that, Benjamin was a gentle gentleman, although somewhat stubborn, and in general a gentleman should not be so inappropriate in his words, even if he thought so in his heart.
"Kill, honorable Prime Minister, isn't this a bit too extreme? Xiao Lotian is not an ordinary land king of a backward country, let alone those tribal chiefs in South America and Africa."
Sir Eric shook his head and said, "He is a scholar, statesman, and powerful military general in Asia, and he is a very popular man, do you know how much of a blow to the prestige of our British will be if you kill him?"
There was a secret meeting between Ai Liguo and Xiao Letian on Chaolian Island, no matter what interests the two sides had in that meeting, at least Xiao Letian's bearing made Ai Liguo very admirable, and he had to admit that Xiao Letian was a person with a very strong personality, and his smile was enough to cool down the anger of the enemy.
Defeating or curbing the expansion of the Chinese nationality is the strategy of the reunification of the country, but he is against direct killing.
Benjamin also felt that what he had just said was a bit extreme, and he took a sip of wine to lighten the atmosphere and calmly explained his theory.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Crown Prince, may be a little barbaric in my words, but please believe me that this is entirely based on loyalty to the British Empire!"
"At the beginning of this Eastern Prime Minister's emergence, I didn't have him as a threat, but as time went on, I could smell more and more danger in him!"
"This is really a typical conspirator who takes one step at a time and looks at ten steps, you look at his report on the Oriental Chinese throughout Europe this time, he has already set a trap for us from the very beginning!"
"The initial attack on Tsarist Russia was actually a preparation for the final stab at France, and the series of oriental cultural propaganda in the middle was just to guess that our ban was issued and take precautions."
"It's too dangerous, he completely guessed everything we should do, so he made such a huge plan, that is, his last attack must be after the victory in the Far Eastern War!"
"I have a hunch that Tsarist Russia will lose badly in the Far East!"
"Oh God, how is that possible?" said Crown Prince Edward, who almost dropped his pants with a glass in his hand.
Crown Prince Edward, also known as Edward VII, was the eldest son of the Queen, who took over the British throne after the death of Queen Victoria and died of illness on the eve of World War I.
For this king, later generations still have a high evaluation, although his political talent is far inferior to his mother and even some other European kings and prime ministers, but he has a very good attribute is affinity.
Edward VII was good at diplomacy, and he would not be angry in the face of slander but smiled generously, and even knelt down to the statue of the great Napoleon during a visit to France, which was deeply admired by the French, and also laid the foundation for the later easing of Anglo-French relations during his reign.
Including the Triple Alliance of Britain, France, and Russia in World War I, the foundation was also laid when he was alive, which shows the strong diplomatic ability of this person.
People with higher affinity are generally more kind, this is a kind of nature, for example, looking at Xiao Letian as a person, Benjamin is a skeptic, he first saw Xiao Letian as a bad person and then a little bit to prove to solve, he must see you one good thing after another, in order to slowly move you to the pile of good people, in the process once you do one or two things wrong, he will immediately classify you into the pile of bad people.
Such people are hard to trust because they are suspicious by nature.
Edward, on the other hand, when getting along with people, when meeting a stranger, they prefer to directly say that the other person is a good person, and then observe you little by little in the long process of getting along, and only after discovering that you have done a series of bad things, he will classify you from the good people to the bad people.
Of course, in the process, if you do a few more good things or repentance, then he will choose to trust you again and push you into the pile of good people.
This is a completely different kind of human nature, and good people naturally have a high affinity, and they are more able to win the love of the people in diplomatic situations.
"Honorable Prime Minister, do you think too highly of the Chinese people? I really don't believe that a newly born force can have the ability to defeat the powerful Tsarist Russia?"
Don't forget that the Far East is actually an enclave of Tsarist Russia, although the territory on the map is connected, but there is no railway and perennial frozen soil, it is difficult to provide resources from Europe!"
"In other words, Xiao Letian is fighting with the power of the country and the power of Tsarist Russia, so if you take a look again, do you still have confidence in Tsarist Russia?"
In a word, the queen was also moved: "Wait a minute, did Hong Kong send a telegram three months ago? It said that Xiao Lotian launched a financial war in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, and finally won?"
"Yes, Wise Queen, you reminded me that Xiao Lotian is not only pouring the full strength of the Chinese clan, he has even stolen a powerful force from the Qing Empire!"
Benjamin is not wrong at all, Xiao Letian's fundamental strategy to defeat Tsarist Russia is to kill the Russian army in your Far East state with all the strength of the country.
The Chinese themselves are very attached, this war has mobilized all the money within the Chinese family, such as the cattle shopkeeper, Mi Fu and other bosses, have long tied all their net worth to Xiao Letian's chariot, one is prosperous, one is lost.
Not only that, Xiao Letian also used money tickets and the stock market to start a financial turmoil and tied most of Jiangnan's wealth to his chariot.
Jiangnan Fortune almost accounted for one-third of the entire Qing Empire, and Xiao Lotian mobilized most of it, that is to say, he mobilized at least one-sixth of the national strength of the Qing Empire and the overall national strength of the Chinese people, together to fight against the few lone armies in the Far East.
The Far East, within the territory of the Tsarist Russian Empire, was nothing more than the Far Eastern Primorsky Krai, which wanted to be a state.
With such a gap in strength, how could Tsarist Russia be undefeated?
Everyone in the room was immediately shocked, and Prince Edward was the first to shout: "God, I still hold a lot of Tsarist Russian debts in the financial city, and if I can't keep them, I must throw them away in advance!"
