While Hu Zhen was holding a high-level secret meeting in the capital of the Chinese Empire, a meeting involving ten countries was also being held in London, Europe, and the main topic was of course how to defeat the newly rising Chinese Empire. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Representatives of the Oros and Wa states demanded that the combined fleet immediately begin an expedition to defeat the Chinese Empire and restore "peaceful order" in the Far East and the Pacific.

However, the other countries did not immediately express their stance on this, but leisurely discussed the matter of stationing troops on the Nanyang islands after the war, and the representatives of the Oros and the Japanese countries knew that this was because the representatives of each country wanted to reap the benefits of their respective countries after the war, so they had to calm down and listen to the fierce quarrels between the representatives of various countries.

The countries of Oros and the Wa Kingdom are in a hurry and can't wait.

Fortunately, because the cable telegraph was not available from time to time, although the country was in a hurry, it could not urge to act quickly.

On October 20, 1894, the old Tsar Alexander III died due to the great stimulus of the defeat of the war with the Chinese Empire, and the Tsar Crown Prince Nicholas II officially ascended the throne.

However, until the interests of various countries are properly distributed, the fleets of various countries will not be dispatched.

The combined fleet of Oros and the Japanese could not hold it back, so they had to set sail in the direction of the Mediterranean, but they received a notice from the British Empire that the combined fleet of the Oros and the Japanese would not be allowed to pass through the Suez Canal until the English made a decision.

This made the new tsar of the Oros Empire angry, and ordered the ambassador to England to negotiate immediately, but the English prime minister, Earl Rosebury, behaved very toughly, and even did not see the face of the ambassador of Oros.

The Combined Fleet of the Uzbeks and Japanese Forces, which had already entered the Mediterranean, did not know when the diplomatic negotiations would come to fruition, so they had no choice but to withdraw from the Mediterranean Sea and head towards the southern Atlantic, attempting to bypass the Cape of Good Hope and enter the Indian Ocean and go straight to the Strait of Malacca.

The English perfectly articulated their credo "between nations, where there are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends".

In the London International Pre-Spoils Conference, the English Prime Minister Earl Rosebury controlled almost the entire venue, which led to the post-war spoils controversy that had not yet been shadowed.

This made the German Empire very dissatisfied, and the Kaiser was so angry that he simply instructed the Minister to China, Schlaneer, to reveal the news that the European powers were forming a joint fleet to the Chinese Emperor Hu Zhen.

While other second-rate powers such as Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, and Austria-Hungary were clamoring to withdraw, only France, fearing that its colonies on the southern frontier of the Chinese Empire would be seized by the Chinese Empire, gritted its teeth and fought for its own interests at the conference.

The representatives of the United States have already made up their minds to form a joint fleet with more powerful countries to fight the Chinese Empire no matter what, and other countries in Gudong will unite to fight against the Chinese Imperial Fleet.

The anxious Oros and the representatives of the Wa Kingdom could only watch the representatives of various countries quarrel, and could not do anything.

The dog-bite-dog-bone grinding meeting lasted for a whole week, and finally England made certain concessions, and the Earl of Rosebury proposed: according to the size of the forces dispatched by each country, the Nanyang Islands and Alaska under the control of the Chinese Empire would be divided into various countries, and the island of Taiwan, the Ryukyu Islands, the Hawaiian Islands, the Panama Canal, and Puerto Rico would be owned by England.

At this time, the representative of Spain stopped doing it, saying that the Luzon Islands were originally a colony of Spain and should be owned by Spain, and the representative of the Netherlands also said that Borneo was originally a colony of the Netherlands, but now it should be distributed to other countries, which is a very unfair thing.

Even the representatives of the United States were a little annoyed, vowing that the United States would take back the 1.77 million square kilometers of Alaska from the Chinese Empire no matter what.

The farce of the quarrel went on for another three days, and the representatives of various countries almost turned their faces and tore their faces for their own interests.

In the end, it was the world's number one power, England, that made concessions:

1. Agree that the barren Alaska region will be returned to the United States, but the United States will no longer participate in the distribution of benefits in the rest of the country;

2. Spain can take back the Luçon Islands, but it has to pay military expenses to various countries, and the Netherlands can take back Borneo and other places, and also pay military expenses to various countries, if the two countries cannot pay military expenses, then the countries will directly divide the two colonies, and Spain and the Netherlands must not object;

3. Hawaii and Puerto Rico are jointly administered by various countries, while Taiwan and the Ryukyu Islands are occupied by England alone.

As for the Oros representatives' proposal to attack the capital of the Chinese Empire, and the proposal of the Japanese representatives to help the Japanese state recover the Goryeo Peninsula, the representatives of various countries ignored it.

Because the representatives of these countries all said that if they defeated the Huaxia Navy and obtained that large maritime colony from the hands of the Huaxia Empire, the benefits were already big enough, and there was really no need to fight with the Huaxia Empire anymore.

In fact, it is not that the countries do not want to divide the Chinese Empire, and the staff of the armies of various countries have calculated that to defeat the Chinese Empire, at least three million troops are needed, and it is not an easy thing to transport three million troops to the Asian continent.

There is also a calculation hidden in the hearts of the rulers of various countries: if the Chinese army is defeated on land, the Oros and the Wa kingdoms bordering the Chinese Empire will inevitably be the biggest gainers, and if the Chinese Empire is divided, the Oros and the Wa kingdoms will lose their restraining power in Asia, and the rise of the Oros and the Wa kingdoms into unchecked states is also unacceptable to the European powers.

Therefore, combining the above two factors, the European powers had neither sufficient land forces nor the motive to attack the Chinese Empire on the mainland and completely carve up the Chinese Empire.

The representatives of the Oros and the Japanese sent the news back to China, and the Japanese were on the verge of bankruptcy and had no power to create any public opinion, but the nationalist sentiment of the Oros was rising, and a large number of Oros youths flocked to the recruiting stations to teach the "yellow-skinned monkeys" who did not know the height of the sky.

The Oros in European countries wantonly created public opinion, saying that the yellow man disaster (it should be two words, but you know, you can only use the three words of yellow man disaster, plus one more person) is about to fall on the head of Europe, the descendants of Genghis Khan will rush to Europe, burn down the prosperous cities and towns of Europe, rob all the wealth of Europe, kill all European men, take away all European beautiful women, as brave and upright Europeans, believers in Christ, now to rise, have money to pay, someone to pay, work together to deal with the yellow man, defend" The Oros Empire, the first line of defense in the free world, organized a new crusade expedition to the continent of the Far East in Asia.

No one could have imagined that the demagogy of the embassies and consulates of Oros that "the yellow race was about to rush to Europe to kill all the European men" would actually summon a "new crusade", and more than 200,000 young people from various European countries rushed to Moscow with their own dry food and money to join the new crusade, clamoring for an expedition to defeat Chinese imperialism.

And many people in Europe also donated money to the "First Line of Defense of the Free World" to help Oros rearm its army against the invasion of the Yellow Man.

This is what happened outside the London International Venue, and the delegates to the National Conference in London scoffed at it, continuing their quarrel over national interests.

But what these delegates did not know was that after their quarrel every day, there would be interpreters and staff in the room who would deliver the minutes of the day's meeting to a hidden house in London and receive a large prize.

Of course, the people who gave out the bonuses were the intelligence officers of the Chinese Empire.

At the same time, the intelligence personnel of the Chinese Empire also intercepted information from the cable telegraph line and sent it back to China to be deciphered by the intelligence decipherment center.

In this case, everything that the countries were in the meeting hall did not have any secrets for the Chinese Empire.

After more than ten days of quarrels, the countries finally reached an agreement, agreeing to the agreement of the British to divide the overseas territories of the Chinese Empire, and jointly send capital ships to the southwest Pacific region of Asia.
