Chapter 182: Invincible Victory (4)
"Not what I'm going to do? But what are you going to do with Lord Belle?
It's easy to say, help the eight-nation coalition forces in Jingu prevent the epidemic! β
Helping the Eight-Nation Coalition to prevent the epidemic, as soon as he heard this, Li Hongzhang touched something, yesterday's peace talks, Gui Shun Dudu didn't say anything about helping the Eight-Nation Coalition Army epidemic prevention in front of him, the plan in this?
"Little brother, Lao Li is old, his mind is limited, say it clearly!"
"To prevent the epidemic, not only the corpses must be burned, but also all the things that the sick people have come into contact with, such as rifles, artillery, and ships, otherwise the plague will be inexorable!
He is afraid of the plague, my soldiers and civilians in the Qing Dynasty are not afraid, the three eastern provinces are in urgent need of firearms, and the Eight-Nation Alliance has no less than 50,000 plague-contaminated weapons in their hands.
If the foreign devils have doubts, it just so happens that Lao Maozi gave up Yingkou and Luda because of the plague, and the British Taikoo Ship Line was not in Yingkou?
There is no need for these weapons to stay in Jingshi, and it is good to transport them to Yingkou!
There are also conditions for us to collect rags, needless to say rifles, but artillery, ships, they must leave some people to do teaching, forget about the little Japanese, this group of people should be dominated by foreign devils!
In this way, we can appropriately increase some compensation for them, so that you are good, I am good, everyone is good, but this time! β
Li Ershen will show his fangs, Li Hongzhang was almost shocked, it turned out that he was thinking about this, but is this possible? What is the difference between this and the Eight-Nation Alliance's disarming of the Qing Dynasty? If he were to deal with this, he would rather burn these guns than the enemy!
The most terrifying thing is that Li Ershen will regard the trick and robbery as a great good deed, do you really think that the foreign devils are all stupid and muddy? Do so. I'm afraid I can't talk about it!
"This ...... Hehe, little brother, your abacus is a little too wishful thinking!
At the beginning of the peace talks, the opening of the mouth was 7 million indemnity, which was already extremely dangerous. Asking for the weapons of the foreign devil army again, isn't this a clear bully?
Can foreign devils be bullied like this? Once the situation is overturned, we will be sinners of a country! β
The compensation can be negotiated, but the guy who opens his mouth to ask others for dinner, in Li Hongzhang's view, this is Li Ershen's insult to the devils of the ocean. Because of the dispute of will, it is inappropriate to ruin the overall situation of the peace talks! Big inappropriate!
"Seven million is dangerous? Lao Tzu still wants not to give a penny? If it weren't for the fact that this country is too weak, too many people, and too few guns in his hands, Lao Tzu can't kill them!
Since you have proposed 7 million indemnities at the negotiating table, how will the foreign devils react? β
What is the situation in the peace talks. Gui Shun didn't say it, because it was a secret conversation between Li Hongzhang and Gui Shun, Gui Shun didn't say it, and Li Dacheng didn't know what the situation was. That's a lot of work to do.
"Little brother, I don't know the outcome of last night's peace talks?"
"I know what else I can ask you?"
"Alas...... The foreign devil did not approve of the 7 million indemnity, and the British envoy opened his mouth to 70 million. Lord Belle fought for everything, and set the compensation at 8.5 million, and the foreign devil still insisted on the amount of 70 million.
During this period, Lord Belle also had some unhappiness with the Japanese envoys. β
Scratching his head, he talked about the progress of yesterday's peace talks. Li Hongzhang was also a little speechless, he didn't know anything! Dare to open your mouth to ask the foreign devil for weapons. That's a bit too bold.
"Huh...... Stalemate? Does that mean that the foreign devils are not confident enough?
Isn't that right? When Lord Belle wakes up, you will go to the embassy area together. Tell me about it privately, remember! Epidemic prevention is the key, don't forget to remind them that the things used by this patient can also be infected with plague, and once brought back to China, the consequences are unimaginable. β
After soaking his hands in the liquid, Li Dacheng played a gossip routine, moved his muscles and bones, and came up with countermeasures by the way, compared with the peace talks, his own injury made Li Dacheng more annoyed, and now he can slowly play a few routines, once the action is too violent, the lungs will ache faintly, and asked the famous doctors in Beijing, their answers are also simple, they will just raise! It can be cured in up to half a year.
Half a year, for Li Dacheng is too long, he also plans to go to the three eastern provinces, the situation of the Zhenwei army there, need to be understood on the spot, the situation in Beijing, after the New Year, it will be almost the same, in two or three months, if the injury can not be healed, it will be delayed.
The national situation is like this, there are too many lip servicers, too few people who really do practical things, if you don't do it, I won't do it, and you can only be bullied by others.
"Little brother, there are more guns than gold and silver, are you sure this can be done?"
Take the army's firearms, this thing is too Meng Lang, how can Li Ershen explain, Li Hongzhang also feels inappropriate, guns and warships have been sold, how can the foreign devils explain when they go back?
"Try it!
At this time, Lord Belle should also get up, I'll take a look, Lao Li, you can do it yourself! β
Since Li Hongzhang shrank his head and turned back, Li Dacheng didn't trust this old man very much, and he had to let Gui Shun go to the front station for some things, counting on Lao Li You's hesitation to get things done, who to reason with?
Leaving down Li Hongzhang with a hesitant face, Li Dacheng went to Guishun's small courtyard, Jinmen battled, Guishun also gathered a few good mothers-in-law, when Li Dacheng entered the house, Guishun was washing under the service of several mothers-in-law!
"Oops...... Oops...... Rub it for me, it hurts! β
swept the shadow of Li Erye, Gui Shun began to spill, Li Erye did not allow him to snort at the negotiation table, this is a great ordeal for Gui Shun, yesterday at the negotiation table crying bitterly, that is really uncomfortable!
"What else does Lord Belle still hurt, I'll help you rub it?"
Seeing Gui Shun's slackness, Li Dacheng shook his head, the negotiation is a matter of national system, how can he be allowed to puff his teeth at the negotiation table? Once they are looked down upon by foreign devils, they will have no prestige in the future.
"Stay away from Lao Tzu!
Your hand is murderous, let you rub it, will you be mourned tomorrow? β
Glancing at Li Dacheng angrily, Gui Shun decisively rejected Second Master Li's kindness and let the goods be massaged, but he was afraid that the massage would be over. The people are gone, Gui Shun has seen Li Erye kill people, and the means are very neat!
"Lord Belle, rubbing a few small cigarette balls in your mouth can be enjoyable, but you can't eat too much of this thing. If you eat too much, the size of a mung bean is enough! β
"! There has been such a method for a long time, why don't you say it? Yesterday, I almost cried to death at the negotiating table!
Who, you go and try a pill for Lao Tzu, don't be stunned, hurry up and serve the second master! β
Yesterday's torment. It's too difficult for Gui Shun, he can't afford to be slow today, because he is afraid of going to peace talks, with Li Erye's method, his spirit is a little better.
Stretched out his hand to stop the mother-in-law who came up. Li Dacheng doesn't dare to provoke women now, just like the girl of the Sun family every day, he doesn't dare to touch it, let alone the people here in Guishun, now he has to endure it!
Gui Shun endured his addiction to smoking, finished washing, and ate a little, so he couldn't wait to follow Li Dacheng's statement. Swallow a grain of tobacco the size of a mung bean.
"Hmmm! Well! It's coming, it's coming! Not bad, just a little slower. Nothing to do! It's as delicious as it is grilled! β
Looking at Gui Shun, who was slack, Li Dacheng sighed helplessly, no matter how good a man is, it is difficult to resist the temptation of this thing, and in the Zhenwei army, it is better to restrain it. Otherwise, it will affect combat effectiveness.
"Today, you and Lao Li will go to the embassy area. Exchange anti-epidemic drugs for the guns of foreign devils, and warships are also completed. The money for buying a battleship can be used as an indemnity.
The cause and effect, I told Lao Li, you guys discuss it on the road, don't listen to Lao Li, he is too soft and cowardly!
The negotiation is not in a hurry, it will drag on for a month and a half, it will not hurt us, the price of the compensation, don't add it anymore, add something to be exchanged, 70 million is not impossible, take the guns and battleships in exchange, of course, the price we can let them take a step, but there must be a limit, at most double the original price! β
In fact, if there can be such a situation in the negotiation, Li Dacheng also secretly called it lucky, and he couldn't do this kind of Cheng dΓΉ by pointing to the bloody war alone, but the unconventional thing like the plague can only be played once or twice, and if you play too much, you are playing with fire, and the conventional way of bloody war is the means to speak in the future.
This peace negotiation undoubtedly helped the Qing court a lot, Li Dacheng is still a little helpless in this regard, the Qing Dynasty with old ladies is a whole, although it is a little frustrated, but it is a country in the end, isn't it?
It's easy to rebel, a few words will be done, but the cost is too great, the future situation is unpredictable, once it is used by foreign devils, it will be a real catastrophe.
The current Qing court does not need to oppose it, and when the old ladies die, the Qing court will be almost finished, no queen, greedy and excessive, they can't go down, compared to the anti-Qing Dynasty, more importantly, to maintain the integrity of a country, there is still a Waimeng hanging outside!
Once the Qing court is gone, Outer Mongolia will have the prerequisites for splitting, more than 1.5 million square kilometers of land, rich in mineral resources, more than 1 million fierce horse bandits, the losses of Outer Mongolia will be too great, and the benefits in this will far outweigh the problem of opposing the Qing Dynasty, and if Outer Mongolia is not resolved, there will be no benefit in opposing the Qing Dynasty.
Looking at Gui Shun's dashing departure, Li Dacheng is also constantly weighing the gains and losses, the slogan is not important, the interests are the most important, if Gu Qixing's operation is successful, let Li Dagou as a puppet to control Outer Mongolia, supplemented by the benefits of plunder, and launch at least hundreds of thousands of horse thieves, the right to speak in Outer Mongolia will fall into his hands, and the benefits in this are immeasurable.
Similarly, the same is true of the three eastern provinces, with Li Dahan in charge, and then hang the name of the Zhenwei Army, what the king of the Northeast, what Zhang Lao Gada, all let them be stillborn, with Manchurian and Mongolian as a springboard, supplemented by millions of bandits, horse thieves, Siberia is also in the bag, and the interests in this are greater!
In addition to the cultivation of basic skills, during this time, he frequently learned from Wang Wu, Cheng Tinghua and others, although it was just a routine competition, but Li Dacheng really benefited a lot.
According to his estimates, as long as his injuries heal after three or five months, his combat power will be at least doubled, and he will be killed by stretching out his hand, which is easy and pleasant.
Li Dacheng continued to do not do his job, Lao Li and Gui Shun also came to the embassy area together, and discussed with Li Hongzhang on the way, Lao Li still shrank his head and handed over the matter to Gui Shun.
Tsarist Russia is out, the little Japanese son is sinister, the main object of the peace talks is the United Kingdom, the two found the British envoy Sa Daoyi in the embassy area, Gui Shun said that the Chinese medicine was exchanged for firearms, Lao Sa was naturally angry.
"Your Highness Baylor, you have often said that people must be self-aware, and such a condition will not be accepted not only by the British Empire, but also by other countries.
Let's continue to talk about reparations! β
Yesterday's amount of compensation had already made Lao Sa a little angry, as Li Hongzhang expected, as soon as Gui Shun mentioned changing weapons, Lao Sa refused on the spot.
"Old Sa! Speak well, there's no need for us to talk about things with such a straight face!
For your weapons, do you think Benbel is harming you? Or is it trying to blackmail you?
Wrong! Benbel is here to help!
Lao Sa, do you know why? β
After listening to the interpreter's explanation, Lao Sa was really confused, trying in vain to blackmail the weapons and ammunition of the coalition forces, and kept saying that he was helping the coalition forces, how could such a fallacy be spoken?
"Your Highness Baylor, the negotiation should be more solemn, what is the difference between your mention and blackmail? The coalition forces would rather not want your Chinese medicine than exchange weapons for Chinese medicine! β
What do people think about putting forward such conditions? didn't listen to Gui Shun's persuasion, Lao Sa said his thoughts in a righteous manner. (To be continued)
