It's mid-April, and all sorts of good and bad news are pouring in. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After nearly a year of hard work by the Minister of Intelligence, at the end of March, the agents of the Ministry of Intelligence and the Sharp Blade Special Forces lurking in various places carried out the final blow to the Soul Chasing Organization, killing all the main leaders of the Soul Chasing Organization, and the secret bases and contact points of the Soul Chasing Organization in various places were also pulled out one by one, most of the members of the Soul Chasing Organization were killed, only a few members escaped with their lives, and the Soul Chasing Organization was completely destroyed, and the "Skynet" plan was successfully completed.

At the beginning, the soul chasing organization wanted to assassinate Yan Xueyi's family, Yan Xueyi was furious and ordered the intelligence department to exterminate the soul chasing organization, if Jiang Xiaoyue was not Jiang Linyu's own sister, Yan Xueyi wanted to kill him on the spot, and then Jiang Xiaoyue was taken care of by Mu Xue, and it is unknown what Mu Xue, who has the hidden attributes of a little devil, tortured Jiang Xiaoyue into, Yan Xueyi never asked, as if he had forgotten that there was such a person.

The big leader of the soul chasing organization didn't expect that because of his greed for money, he finally led to the complete destruction of the soul chasing organization that had been inherited for hundreds of years, and the king was angry, ambushed millions of corpses, and shed thousands of miles of blood, which is not a joke.

The encirclement and suppression of the soul-chasing organization was inevitable, followed by two peace negotiations between Tsarist Russia and the Manchus, and between the Manchus and the Manchus.

In the face of the three enemies of Tsarist Russia, Yueben, and the "short-haired thief", the Manchus just wanted to negotiate peace quickly and reduce the pressure, and one "short-haired thief" would make it difficult for the Manchus to bear, let alone these two foreign enemies.

However, in the negotiations between the Manchus and Tsarist Russia, in the face of Tsarist Russia, which was far stronger than the Manchus, the Manchus fell into disadvantage from the very beginning of the negotiations.

Tsarist Russia was forced by Western countries to negotiate peace, looking at the weak Manchu Qing, the Tsarist Russian lion opened his mouth, and came up to ask the Manchus to cede a piece of land of nearly 100,000 square kilometers in the northwest region, and at the same time to pay compensation to the Manchus 30 million taels of silver.

How can this condition be accepted when it expires, so the two sides enter a state of arguing.

However, Tsarist Russia did not have much patience, and the negotiating envoys repeatedly warned the Manchus that if the Manchus did not accede to these demands, Tsarist Russia would continue to go to war.

Tsarist Russia threatened to go to war, the Manchus were worried, as the negotiating minister Prince Li Shiduo could only ask Britain, Germany and other countries to help, under the mediation of Western countries, Tsarist Russia slightly lowered the demands, the two sides continued to argue, Tsarist Russia is trying to get more benefits, the Manchus want to pay less, the cowardly Manchus can also play this little calculation, no matter how much the Manchus pay, from the beginning it shows that the Manchus have completely lost.

In the end, the two sides signed the "XX Treaty", the main part of which was that the Tsarist Russia and the Manchu Qing took the territory under their actual control as the demarcation line, and there was no territorial dispute, and then the Manchu Qing needed to cede a 46,000 square kilometers of land in the northwest and compensate Tsarist Russia with 8 million taels of silver.

The treaty was signed, and the Manchus were relieved that there was finally one less enemy for the time being, but the Manchus had not forgotten about another negotiation.

For the surprise attack of Yuben, the Manchu court was extremely angry, you small island country actually dared to provoke several times, it is really damned.

If there was no Tsarist Russia and the "short-haired thief", the Manchu Qing would really have started a war with Yuben, and now they just want to make peace quickly.

Most of the people in the Manchu court believed that the strength of the Manchu Qing was stronger than that of Yueben and should not be as passive as facing Tsarist Russia, so the Manchus put forward their own conditions: Yueben unconditionally withdrew from Korea, and as the upper state of the Celestial Empire, the Manchus would not ask for compensation from Yueben.

When the envoy heard the Manchu peace conditions, he thought that he had heard it wrong, and he must know that this war was the victory of the Great Empire and the occupation of Korea, a vassal state of the Chinese people, why did the Chinese still think that they had won?

The envoy then stated the terms of the peace negotiated by the present side: taking the territory under the current actual control as the demarcation line, ceding Taiwan at the end of the period, and compensating 50 million taels of silver.

Both the Ben and the Manchu Qing put forward their own terms for peace, and it is clear that the talks collapsed directly.

It is said that the top level of the country is very dissatisfied with the fact that the war did not occupy Taiwan, and they hope to seize Taiwan at the negotiating table, knowing that they are blocking the national fortunes and launching a war against the Manchus, and once the war is lost or the war is over, there will be big problems in the country.

However, the high-level officials also saw a very serious problem in this war, if they had a strong navy and could confront the Beiyang Naval Division of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it would be very likely to occupy Taiwan, but unfortunately they were forced to evacuate Taiwan in the end, so the high-level officials decided that a strong navy must be established in the future, at least stronger than the Beiyang Naval Division.

In order to let the Manchus agree to the conditions offered by the Manchus as soon as possible, they planned to follow the example of Tsarist Russia and threaten the Manchus with war, and the Japanese troops stationed in Korea were frequently mobilized, and they expressed to the Manchus with actions that what they could not get at the negotiating table would be obtained by war.

For the move of the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty said that the war will fight who is afraid of whom, the front bend can defeat you, and now they will not be afraid, the Japanese army's equipment is even more backward than the Qing army, and even many Qing army generals think that the instinct to occupy Korea is because of the Japanese army's numerical superiority, and in the case of the same number of Qing troops and Japanese troops, the Qing army will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese army.

Of course, the Qing generals were talking about elite Qing troops such as the Huai Army and the Hunan Army, not the cannon fodder green battalion soldiers.

It was also the victory of the Qing army against the Japanese army that made the Manchus not afraid of the threat of war, but instead transferred tens of thousands of troops from all over the country to the northeast, and even the Manchu court planned to do so. The Beiyang New Army, which was being dispatched, was dispatched, and even if it did not have the idea of attacking Korea, it was necessary to ensure that it could not enter the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

The Manchus and the Qing Dynasty had several collapses in the peace talks, and war almost broke out in the border area because of a minor dispute, and the time for the peace talks dragged on for longer and longer.

If you want to talk about the Manchu Qing and the Manchu Dynasty, the book does not want the war to continue, because the book is betting on the national fortune to launch a war against the Manchu Dynasty, and after such a long time, the country's treasury is empty, and if it is a stalemate for a while, the book itself will not be able to hold on.

Now he is gritting his teeth and insisting that he cannot lower the negotiation conditions first, otherwise outsiders will find out about his disguise.

In addition, in the negotiations between the Manchus and the Manchus, there was another thing that made the Manchus unbearable, Britain and other Western countries were biased towards the Manchus, retaliating for the disobedience of the Manchus.

In desperation, he could only use his crooked mind to bribe negotiators from other countries with money and women, and the British negotiators were the top priority, and he hoped to get the support of Britain the most, and it was best to build a navy stronger than the Beiyang Naval Division with the support of Britain.

In the end, in early April, the two sides signed the "XX Treaty", the main content of which was only the demarcation line between the two sides with the territory under their actual control now, and the rest was negligible, and the Manchus did not need to cede territory or pay compensation.

On the surface, the Manchu Qing and the negotiation of the peace negotiations were tied, but in fact the Manchus lost, and the Manchus handed over the vassal state of Korea to the hands of the Yueben, which was undoubtedly a huge failure, but the Manchu court was happy that the treaty was signed without the enemy of the Yueben.

The Manchus were hopeless.
