Chapter 492: The Sorrowful Englishman

At a time when the British Empire was in crisis, while millions of people rose up to protest, the efficiency of the inefficient House was astonishingly high. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Salisbury and Rosebury, the leaders of the Conservative Party and the Liberal Party, joined forces to prompt lawmakers to quickly pass a negotiated treaty with the Chinese Empire in just one day.

When the news got out, the entire English Empire trembled.

Many young men rushed into the streets in desperation, trying to stop the legislators from traveling and forcing them to withdraw their ratification of the peace treaty with the Chinese Empire.

But the military and police were already on standby, using batons to beat the ignorant young people to the point of bleeding.

Where there is oppression, there is resistance.

Enraged, the young men of England fought with stones and sticks, and more and more English people rushed to join the warband.

On this day, at least a million English people shouted "Down with Chinese imperialism" and joined the street fight against the military and police.

The military and police also brought in more than 100,000 people from outside London.

The two sides fought in London, blood splattered the streets, tens of thousands of people were trampled to death, and countless people were injured, and the whole of London was red with blood.

Historically known as the "London Bloody Week" event.

However, the desperate struggle of millions of English people could not prevent the English legislature from approving a peace treaty that sold its interests to the Chinese Empire, and even Queen Victoria was persuaded by the joint efforts of Rosebury and Salisbury to agree to buy time to reorganize the British Empire.

At this time, it spread to Europe, and it also caused a great sensation.

France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy and other countries finally breathed a sigh of relief and openly welcomed the peace treaty between the English Empire and the Chinese Empire.

However, these countries secretly sent envoys to form an alliance with the British Empire to jointly secretly develop new weapons to deal with the aerial flying machines of the Chinese Empire.

The Oros, who were still at war with the Chinese Empire, were terrified, fearing that the whole of Europe would abandon them, making them "orphans of Europa".

Moscow sent many diplomatic envoys to European countries in an attempt to persuade them to unite against the Chinese Empire.

The political circles of the major European powers were very conflicted, they wanted to temporarily conclude a peace treaty with the Chinese Empire to buy time, and on the other hand, they were worried that the Oros would be defeated by the Chinese Empire and thus lose the barrier to the east. If you openly support Oros, you will inevitably offend the Chinese Empire, but if you do not support Oros, you may lead to the destruction of Oros.

Under this ambivalence, the major European powers did not dare to openly receive the diplomatic envoys sent by the Oros Empire, but only met with them secretly and quietly provided some support to the Oros.

In the bustling diplomatic circles of European countries, there is also one country that has little connection with it, and which seems very unhappy: the German Empire.

The fleet of the German Empire was not annihilated by the Chinese Army in the South China Sea with the combined European fleet, but also maintained a colony in the South Pacific, and reached a number of economic, military and other agreements with the Chinese Empire, and the two countries opened their trade markets to each other.

When the Chinese Empire was pulling with the English Empire, the trade volume of the German Empire to the Chinese Empire soared sharply, especially the industrial facilities such as machine tools, lathes, and steelmaking equipment, and in a short period of time, the sales volume increased more than ten times.

This made the German merchants fall in love with Wilhelm II, and praised him for not participating in the European Combined Fleet to fight the Chinese Empire as a great and wise act.

However, the peace treaty between England and the Chinese Empire made Wilhelm II very unhappy, the German merchants were also very unhappy, and the German soldiers were even more unhappy, and a wave of how to break the Sino-British Treaty was brewing in the German Empire.

So Wilhelm II decided to ask the diplomats stationed in the Chinese Empire to go to the Chinese Empire government or directly meet with the emperor, to prevent the Chinese Empire from making peace with the English Empire, or to delay the ratification of the peace treaty by the Chinese Empire, so that the German Empire could continue to reap the benefits.

After receiving the order, Schranel, the German minister to the Chinese Empire, immediately jumped up and down among the government departments of the Chinese Empire in the capital.

On this day, Schranel first went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to find Minister Niu Quyun, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs personnel told him that Minister Niu was attending a meeting and it was inconvenient to see him.

Schlaner hurried to the Prime Minister's Office to meet Prime Minister Li Hongzhang, but received the same reply, saying that the Prime Minister was attending an important meeting and could not meet with diplomats.

Schlanel asked the Prime Minister where he was attending the meeting and what the content of the meeting was, and the receptionist immediately looked at him with a very strange look, but the words were polite: "This is a secret of the Empire, and I can't tell you!" ”

When Schranel ran outside the palace, he was immediately blasted out of the door by the palace guards, saying that he, a diplomatic minister, should go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs if he had any diplomatic matters, instead of coming to the palace to ask for a meeting with the emperor.

Schranel tried to defend himself, but was forcibly driven out by the palace guards using rifle bayonets.

Schlaneer was a little annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't have a seizure, and he felt sad in his heart: If he was a dignified German minister in the Qing Dynasty two years ago, and said that he wanted to see that official, who would dare not see him? Even if he wanted to enter the palace to meet the emperor of the Qing court, the emperor did not dare not give some face.

But now the Chinese Empire is completely different from the Qing court, but in just over a year, it has swept across the entire Pacific region, and defeated the European Combined Fleet, forcing European countries to fall apart, and now the Chinese Empire is thriving, and the German Empire is still looking forward to taking a free ride in it.

At this time, all the political leaders of the Chinese Empire were attending an important meeting chaired by the emperor himself in the imperial palace.

"Congratulations to the Emperor, the former invincible English have finally relented and sent Australia to our country, and the Pacific Ocean will become our domestic sea!"

At the beginning of the meeting, the ministers congratulated Hu Zhen one after another.

Hu Zhen waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry to say good things first, let's see if the peace treaty that the British Empire has ratified is in the interests of our country!" ”

The master has a copy of the peace treaty in his hands, and when he sees that the Chinese Empire will receive the largest land and indemnity benefits in the history of China for thousands of years, his heart has long been happy, where would he not agree.

Zhang Zhidong took a step forward and said happily: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this treaty is completely in line with my country's interests and can be ratified immediately, and my country will control Australia from now on!" ”

Li Hongzhang also stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, this is a great event, it should be approved immediately!" ”

However, there will always be different voices, that is, Liang Kunri and other military leaders of the army, among whom Liang Kunri jumped up and roared hoarsely: "Your Majesty, when our army has the upper hand, the old man Xue Fucheng did not mention the ownership of the Suez Canal in the peace treaty, nor did he mention how the future of India and the Middle East was arranged!" I really don't know how he negotiated such a treaty! ”

Hu Zhen knew that these military leaders were eager to unify the entire earth immediately, so he said: "The food must be eaten in one bite, the road must be walked step by step, we can't eat a big fat man in one bite, as long as the Suez Canal can be used smoothly by the Chinese Empire, it will be put in the hands of the Europeans for the time being, and the English colonies such as the Middle East and India are different from Australia, which is vast and sparsely populated and rich in resources. We can't let it be our burden! ”

Liang Kunri never dared to collide with Hu Zhen, and when he heard Hu Zhen's words, he lowered his head and returned to his seat, but he still said unwillingly: "It is recommended not to ratify this peace treaty first, and to scare these European white-skinned pigs!" ”

This is Liang Kunri's angry language, and everyone ignores him.

Hu Zhen asked Su Wen, "How big of Australia does my Huaxia army control now?" ”

Su Wenzhen stood up and said respectfully: "Report to the emperor, the number of Chinese troops entering Australia has exceeded 800,000, in Darwin City and the Cape York Peninsula, half of the main force of the British army has been disabled by us, and there is no counterattack at all, and more than 30% of Australia is controlled.

Liang Kunri stood up excitedly and said: "That means that whether England signs a peace treaty or not, it is only a matter of time before our army takes Australia?" Then what peace treaty was made with the English? ”

Li Hongzhang said: "If a peace treaty is signed, in addition to going to Australia without a fight, it can also force England to recognize the scope of our territorial waters, which is not something that can be done by military action alone!" ”

Hu Zhen agreed, he didn't want to waste any more time: "The peace treaty must be signed, otherwise how can the whole of Europe recognize the benefits we have already received?" As long as the black paper and white letters are signed, there will be no flaws in the law, and future generations will have a basis. ”

As soon as Hu Zhen's words came out, no one dared to object immediately.

Hu Zhen agreed to ratify the peace treaty, and the content of the following meeting immediately changed to how to control Australia and the consolidation of immigrants.

The meeting lasted for an hour and decided on a plan to immediately allocate 100 million Chinese dollars to resettle 6 million people within five years, and to make the Chinese population overwhelmingly dominant in Australia within 10 years.

Hu Zhen was not very interested in the following specific contents, and he said that the meeting was dismissed a little tiredly, and asked Prime Minister Li Hongzhang to organize various departments after he returned, conduct demonstrations, and put forward a detailed and careful plan to send for review.

When everyone had gone out of the meeting, Hu Zhen asked the Minister of Finance Fan Qianhai and the governor of the Central Bank Zhang Suan to stay, and said to them: "I estimate that the British Empire will soon adopt a strict control system for the stock and bond markets, and there will not be many opportunities for us to make a lot of money!" ”

Fan Qianhai and Zhang Suan were very surprised: "Control? Didn't the English advocate the freest system of capital management? ”

Hu Zhen said: "Now the situation has completely changed, the English people's set of capital management methods have failed, they will not be so stupid to keep the inadequate, this time there will definitely be a move!" ”

"So what do we do?"

"Therefore, I will leave you behind after the meeting is dismissed, and discuss a new strategy as soon as possible to ensure the financial benefits we have already obtained!"

Fan Qianhai suggested: "Your Majesty, the minister dares to suggest that in the peace treaty with England, there should be a provision that England shall not arbitrarily control the free flow of capital and shall not control the financial market. ”

Hu Zhen thought for a while, and then said: "No, we can't do this now, judging from the London Bloodshed Week incident, if we force England to sign this article, the English people will definitely resist desperately, and we will prematurely expose our unrestricted warfare intentions!" This may be used in the future, but it is not appropriate to do so without full military control now! ”

Zhang Suan said: "Your Majesty, from the very beginning, according to your requirements of the Emperor, we have already prepared, the headquarters of the Oulang Group and the Frodo Group have been relocated to Switzerland, and the profits we have already received can be exchanged for precious metals such as gold and silver, and the ant moving plan has been implemented as early as possible, and the relocation plan to our country has been implemented little by little!"

If the English people implement strict control, we are not afraid, and it is a big deal to simply lurk those untransferable capital in the local area for a long time! ”

Fan Qianhai also nodded and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also agrees with Zhang Suan's opinion, we are not afraid of the financial control of the British, but we must transfer assets as soon as possible after a period of time!" It is estimated that the English will take a sudden action and catch all the capital by surprise and be trapped in England! ”

Zhang Suan continued: "If the British Empire implements capital controls, other European countries and United States will inevitably follow suit, and we will not be able to make such a lot of money in the future!" Our capital in other countries should be able to be transferred as much as possible, and those that cannot be transferred should also be fully prepared! ”

Hu Zhen agreed with their judgment: "I also see it this way, after you go back, you will immediately contact Wang Yuanshan, and order the two major groups of Ou Lang and Frodo to prepare to ensure that our losses are reduced to the minimum, okay, you go back and deal with this matter quickly!" ”

After Fan Qianhai and Zhang Suan went out, Hu Zhen paced around the room and immediately dialed the communicator to the supercomputer of the nuclear submarine: "Please use the data stored in the supercomputer to see what we can do if the English adopt financial market regulation!" ”

The voice of the nuclear submarine immediately came from the communicator: "Yes, master, the supercomputer immediately calculates and proposes a strategy to deal with it!" ”

When the supercomputer was doing rapid calculations, Hu Zhen couldn't hear a single sound in his communicator, and he thought to himself: "Malegobi, look at you turtle grandsons, can you fight with my supercomputer?" (To be continued.) )
