Under the strong military deterrence of the Han Kingdom, Britain, France, and the Three Kingdoms of Yueben have negotiated peace with the Han Kingdom. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Berlin, Germany
Although at this time, the Han Kingdom occupied the top position at the negotiating table because of the deterrence of airships, and demanded that Britain and France make various reparations to the Han Kingdom, but Britain and France, as one of the world's top superpowers, were not willing to be blackmailed by the Han Kingdom, and had not agreed to compensate the Han Kingdom.
The negotiation impasse is here, Britain and France think that their losses are very large, it is good not to let the Han Kingdom make compensation, why does the Han Kingdom want Britain and France to compensate, isn't it crushed by the yellow-skinned monkey, this kind of thing cannot happen, this will be a shame for the British Empire and the French Republic, and it will be made fun of by other Western countries.
However, Cao Xuwen is determined to complete the task given to him by Yan Xueyi, to make Britain and France compensate, don't forget, the Han Kingdom also has a killer feature, in the war between the Han Kingdom and Britain and France, the British soldiers and French soldiers were captured by the Han army, don't Britain and France want to return the prisoners, then Britain and France must pay the price.
Therefore, it is not possible for Britain and France not to compensate the Han Kingdom, and the Han Kingdom has the right to win.
On the other hand, the Han Kingdom and the negotiation of the Ben.
It is said that the country was really scared by the Han Kingdom, and said that the country's strength fell to the lowest point since the "Meiji Restoration", and if it continues to fight like this, I am afraid that the entire country will be torn apart and re-enter the Warring States Period.
Kuroda Takakiyo personally negotiated with the Han Kingdom as the negotiator of the Han Kingdom, Kuroda Takakiyo knew his current strength, and bowed directly to the Han Kingdom, just wanting to be able to pay some less price, at the same time, Kuroda Takakiyo was also actively contacting Britain and France, hoping to rely on the strength of Britain and France, so that he would pay less price, at least give him a little hope.
The Han Kingdom directly demanded that Yuben compensate 500 million taels of silver, but of course Yuben could not accept this condition, even if he sold the entire Yueben, he could not take out so much silver, and Yueben could only discuss with the representatives of the Han Kingdom while asking for help from Britain and France.
At the beginning, the British, French, Russian, and Yuben allied forces, and the armies of the four countries were defeated one after another in the hands of the Han Kingdom, and Britain, France, and Yueben had all negotiated peace with the Han Kingdom under the strong military deterrence of the Han Kingdom, and now only Russia itself is holding on.
It's just that there are not many Russian expeditionary forces left, and there are less than 20,000 people left in the middle route army and the east route army, how can they resist the Han Kingdom, at this time the Han Kingdom has defeated Britain, France, and Yueben, and the Han Kingdom can transfer troops to the north at any time to launch a larger war with Russia.
Russia can be regarded as the most powerful land country in the world, with a land area of more than 20 million square kilometers, a population of more than 100 million, and a standing army of more than 1 million, and can arm millions of troops at any time.
In the war between Russia and the Han Kingdom, the loss of this army is insignificant to the great Russia, but such a loss is also a shame for Russia, and Russia certainly wants to continue the war with the Han Kingdom.
But there is one problem that deeply troves Russia.
Although Russia has a vast territory and a large population, it is very difficult for Russia to continue to send more troops to attack the Han Kingdom.
Russia's Trans-Siberian Railway has not yet been built, Russia wants to send more troops to attack the Han Kingdom, its logistics are very large and responsible, and Russia's industry is relatively fragile, even compared to the industry of the Han Kingdom's four provinces, how can Russia send a large army to war with the Han Kingdom?
This time, Russia has already made great efforts to send 100,000 troops to attack the Han Kingdom, and it is impossible to send a larger army, so what should Russia do now?
In the Kremlin in Moscow, Russia, a number of high-level Russian leaders continued to discuss fiercely.
Some people want to continue the war with the Han Kingdom, and some people want Russia and the Han Kingdom to be in such a stalemate, but they just need to send more troops to the border areas of the two countries to maintain border stability, the strength of the Han Kingdom has been recognized by all countries, and the border between the two countries is so long, the Han Kingdom can attack Russia at any time.
Of course, there were also those who hoped that Russia and the Han Kingdom would make peace, just like the other three kingdoms.
The Russian high-ranking people also saw that the Han Kingdom had a powerful airship, which could easily fly over the Russian city and bring destruction to the city, but Russia could not resist it.
If Russia and the Han Kingdom do not negotiate peace, and the airship of the Han Kingdom flies to Russia, causing huge casualties to Russia, then what should Russia do? In the end, Tsar Alexander III agreed to peace talks between Russia and the Han Kingdom, and the Russian ambassador to Germany, Yevgeny, served as Russia's plenipotentiary to communicate with the Han Kingdom and negotiate peace with the Han Kingdom.
After receiving instructions from the Russian side, Evgeny immediately began to take action, meeting with Cao Xuwen, the foreign minister of the Han Kingdom, who was in Berlin, Germany, to start peace negotiations between Russia and the Han Kingdom.
However, Evgeny's action failed, and Cao Xuwen didn't pay attention to Evgeny at all, except for refusing or refusing, he didn't want to meet Evgeny.
If you can't see Cao Xuwen, then you can't carry out peace negotiations between Russia and the Han Kingdom, which is not good, Yevgeny hurriedly contacted the British peace negotiator Ivis and the French peace negotiator Christopher, hoping that the two can help him, let him meet and love Cao Xuwen, so that he can start the peace negotiations between Russia and the Han Kingdom.
After all, it was Britain, France, Russia, and the four countries that formed an alliance to attack the Han Kingdom together, and the four countries all failed.
Moreover, Britain and France also participated in the peace negotiations between Yuben and the Han Kingdom, and gave Yuben some help, so Britain and France also helped Russia.
Faced with Evgeny's request, Ives and Christopher could only agree.
So Ives and Christopher took Evgeny's entrustment to meet Cao Xuwen, and the two told Cao Xuwen that Evgeny wanted to meet with him, but Cao Xuwen refused with a smile without any reason, but Cao Xuwen was unwilling to meet with Evgeny.
Avis and Christopher seem to see something from Cao Xuwen's performance, the border between Russia and the Han Kingdom is tens of thousands of kilometers long, which is a big problem.
