Chapter 730: Messing Around

Last night, Feng Guozhang woke up Zhao Dabang's mallet, and before he could explain his intentions, he was scolded and driven away by the goods.

Even Yin Wenxin, who was robbed of military power by He Changying in disguise, was reluctant to talk to him more.

However, what made Feng Guozhang even more angry was that even the previous Wu Yi soldiers were not willing to go with him.

"Drive!"

Xia Qingyun rode on the war horse given by He Changying's order, looked at the anti-Japanese army camp for a while, whipped his horse, and drove the horse away.

The remaining 40 people also drove their horses away.

Among these 41 people, 16 are Nie Shicheng's personal guards brought by Feng Guozhang, and 10 are Xia Qingyun's personal guards.

The two had a night of quarrel last night, which means that only 13 people were persuaded in total to be willing to leave the anti-Japanese army and go to Yanjing.

"It's going to rainβ€”β€”, let them go."

At this moment, in the rising sun, He Changying was full of confidence.

This army, not prosperous, he spent so much effort. 、

This army will be destined to glory together with his Lushun Army, Yalu River Army, and Anzhou Army.

For this point, He Changying firmly believes!

Hiroshima, Toyo.

It was also early in the morning, but at the beginning of the sun on the outskirts of Yanjing, in Hiroshima, two thousand miles to the southeast, it was already a sunny morning.

At 9 o'clock, the Hiroshima Prefectural Office.

The envoys of the Qing Dynasty to Japan, Zhang Yinhuan and Shao Youlian, and the Japanese minister with full powers, Oriental Prime Minister Hirobumi Ito, and Foreign Minister Mutsu Munemitsu, exchanged edicts signed by the emperors of the two countries.

Zhang Yinhuan got the edict of the Meiji era, handed it to the interpreter around him, supplemented Luo Gengling, the governor of Zhili Prefecture, and supplemented the translation and recitation of Lu Yongming, the governor of Zhili Prefecture.

"He was appointed as the Minister of Plenipotentiary Affairs, and in agreement with the Plenipotentiary Council of the Great Qing State, to act cheaply, to conclude peace treaties, and to be given full powers of registration and printing. The articles agreed upon by him are to be reviewed by my relatives, and if they are really proper, even if they are approved. ”

Zhang Yinhuan and Shao Youlian glanced at each other and nodded.

In their opinion, this thing is actually just a face-to-face cutscene, and they really don't need to care too much about what is written.

The key is that in the following negotiations, what unbelievable conditions are put forward by the Toyokai lion, that is the most important question.

And Ito Hirobumi and Mutsu Munemitsu watched it directly with the Manchu and Han edicts of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty.

"I went to the Orient to discuss all matters with the Minister Plenipotentiary appointed by the Oriental, and sent a telegram to the Prime Minister Yamen to relay the ruling."

The two glanced at each other, and each saw each other's smiles.

Before Zhang Yinhuan and his entourage arrived in the East, former US Secretary of State Crestec, an adviser to the peace talks, had already arrived in Hiroshima.

Crestec used to be the legal adviser of the Chinese Legation in Washington, D.C., and had certain ties to China, but what Zhang Yinhuan didn't know was that Crestec was more inclined to the East.

And because the United States annexed the Hawaiian Islands, there are a large number of Oriental immigrants living on the islands, and the U.S. government and the East are maintaining a good honeymoon period.

In this way, through Cresda, Ito Hirobumi has already figured out the content of the edict of the Qing Dynasty and found the 'loopholes' in it.

Ito Hirobumi did not intend to reject the long-awaited peace talks of the Oriental Empire, but as two cunning old foxes, it seemed to them that when the Oriental army had completed their mission.

At the negotiating table, it will be a battleground for politicians.

On the battlefield, the two sides sat down, each set up their own dragon gate formation, and then bargained.

This is clearly not Hirobumi Ito's style.

Before he really came up with the terms of the armistice in the East, he first taught Zhang Yinhuan and Shao Youlian a good lesson.

Through all kinds of twists and turns, the Qing royal family has been suppressed, and they can't bear to lose their proportions, so that they will give a fatal blow later!

And the 'loophole' in the Guangxu edict leaked by Kostec is today's weapon of Ito Hirobumi.

"Smack!"

Ito Hirofumi suddenly threw Guangxu's edict on the negotiation table in a fit of rage, which frightened Zhang Yinhuan and Shao Youlian, and they both shivered heavily.

"Your country has insufficient edicts, so we can't hold a discussion!"

Ito Hirofumi stared at Zhang Yinhuan with an 'angry' face, and said coldly: "Before your envoy crossed east, my country had already stated that if we sincerely seek peace, we need to send a representative with full qualifications; - Now we don't see any kind expression of begging for peace in the Qing Dynasty! ”

What's the matter?

It's a special underdraw, it's okay to find trouble!

Zhang Yinhuan and Shao Youlian glanced at each other puzzled, and they both saw each other's confusion.

In the eyes of Zhang Yinhuan and Shao Youlian, the so-called negotiation is that Dongyang puts forward their armistice conditions, and then the two call back to the imperial court to decide.

They're just a microphone inside.

You must know that this kind of big thing, without the emperor nodding and agreeing to the armistice treaty, how dare they sign and draw a pledge without authorization?

Isn't that looking for death!

Zhang Yinhuan is fluent in foreign languages, has served as ambassadors to the United States, Peru, and Spain, and lives in Washington? For three years, during which he handled the case of the murder of Chinese workers and obtained compensation, of course, he could not be easily intimidated.

He looked at Ito Hirobumi and said as calmly as possible: "Since China has full power, all rights are naturally included. ”

"Haha-"

Hirobumi Ito laughed wildly: "Ridiculous! - This is what China itself said, and it is inconsistent with public law! ”

Zhang Yinhuan quietly continued to argue with reason: "At the beginning of your country's restoration of Ou Ge Dianyun, China sent a plenipotentiary minister with a credential of state, and his own country also sent a plenipotentiary to negotiate with him; If China follows this approach, why is it inconsistent with public law? ”

"The edicts of the country shall be handled in accordance with public law, and the two shall be compared with each other, and they shall know that they are different;"

With a mocking tone, Ito Hirofumi looked at Zhang Yinhuan obliquely, and said in fluent Chinese: "One is 'if it's really proper, even if it is approved', and the other is 'transfer ruling', the noble envoy really didn't pass the exam, and donated money to buy a magistrate!" ”

"You-"

At this moment, when he encountered such a scoundrel and difficult bastard Oriental old bachelor, Zhang Yinhuan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

"Smack!"

At this time, Mutsu Munemitsu, who had been smiling and groaning next to him, suddenly threw a statement that had been prepared on the table and said disdainfully:

"Since the Qing Dynasty is begging for peace, let's find some people who can talk to it, do you really think that you are the Heavenly Empire back then? A defeated country only! Haha-"

Mutsu Munemitsu laughed loudly.

"Haha-"

The room full of Oriental negotiators laughed loudly, and the laughter was extremely harsh!

On the same day, the Japanese side refused to negotiate with the Qing delegation and forcibly closed the Qing-Japan peace talks.

When the Chinese envoys withdrew from the venue, Ito Bovent left Wu Tingfang behind.

"Why don't you send Prince Gong or Li Zhongtang to the meeting and solemnly take the matter seriously?"

The old fox first asked him to greet Li Hongzhang, and then Ito Hirofumi said to Wu Tingfang: "The 1st Army of the Empire is alone in Yanjing, and it cannot be in this unresolved dangerous situation for a long time, if the Qing State repeatedly deliberately sabotages and delays the peace talks, I will order the 1st Army to attack Yanjing, and invite the emperor of the Qing Dynasty to come to Hiroshima for peace talks." ”

Wu Tingfang was shocked by Ito's threat of war.

At noon on the same day, the news of the great victory of the Jinmen Brigade at the mouth of the Tang River spread all over Jinmen and Tanggu, and then reported to Tongzhou.

Killed more than 3,000 enemies, sank a large warship, and beat the Japanese warships to flee in disarray! - Just listening to it makes your blood boil.

Jinmen, Tanggu, and then the city was boiling, at least this military disaster was in the past.

The news was then transmitted by telegram to the Qing Dynasty, the Western Ocean, the South Seas, and even the Eastern Ocean Hiroshima.

The Hiroshima base camp was silent for a while.

"This new army of the Qing Dynasty has grown so fast!"

Ito Hirobumi hid the shock in his heart deeply, and at the same time secretly rejoiced that this war was finally over, and he didn't have to think too much about this palpitating issue.

"It's a pity that these bastards ran to Jinmen, otherwise they must be destroyed with all their strength before the truce!"

Kawakami Caoroku's face was furious.

So far, the Imperial army that has lost in the hands of this team has reached nearly 20,000 people.

In other words, it is equivalent to the annihilation of an army division in the East, plus the strength of an infantry wing.

How not to make people angry!
