Chapter 52: The Tsar's Wrath

"Oh-yes!" Xiao Yang's eyes lit up, which he had never thought of. Zhang Tong is also happy in his heart, his son-in-law is better than he imagined!

Zhou Zhiguang nodded, he knew that the most clever tactic was to take advantage of the interests of the enemy, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman! This is what the art of war says, a soldier who surrenders without a fight!

Li Chuangteng sat up straight and continued: "The prince is really far-sighted, I didn't see it at all, there is such a big mystery in this!"

However, I still have one more question, will this Tsarist Russia really come forward to force the Qing court to withdraw its troops? ”

"The king judged that the situation of Tsarist Russia in the northeast battlefield was not optimistic, and the Japanese army had an advantage in this war, and Nicholas II must have seen that if the war in Hainan could cause trouble for the Japanese army, so that part of the Japanese army's energy could be distracted, then the pressure on the northeast war situation would be greatly eased.

If the judgment of this king is correct, Russia should begin to put pressure on the Qing court, and the Russians will work with the Germans to exert pressure on the French and the British at the same time, if Britain and France do not adopt this proposal, I think, the war will escalate rapidly, which is an outcome that Britain, France, Germany, and even the Americans do not want to see, so Britain and France, under the pressure of Russia, forced them not to participate in the war in Hainan.

As I expected, Russia will have a mission to Hainan today, and it will bring a lot of funds, and they will come here to instigate and help Hainan win the battle in the South China Sea. ”

"Could there be such a thing? We can't accept the funding of the Russians, these foreign devils don't have a good thing, they all want to steal our resources, this time, even if they come here, it is also for their own interests! Li Chuang said angrily.

"General Li, don't be rash! Those who do great things must not be angry! I know that you are all the top heroes in the world today, you can gamble your life, you can gamble anything, just don't be angry!

Because, when we are angry, our emotions control our judgment, and the decisions we make at this time are 100% wrong.

Those who fight and take are brave! Those who take without a fight are both wise and brave! General Li, all our wars are for the sake of interests and victory, and in wars, we must be good at taking advantage of the contradictions of all parties and achieve ultimate benefits and victory at our own minimum cost! Don't be a puppet!

Our goal is not only Hainan, but the whole country, in the days of the future imperial conquest, there are still many big wars waiting for us, we must learn to preserve strength, as many casualties as possible, as much as possible to use wisdom, so that we can reach the ultimate goal, to establish our own Chinese empire.

This king never wants to see that kind of regret of 'dying before leaving the school'! I hope that you will all live well until the day when we unify the whole country, and this king wants you to enjoy the glory we have bought with wisdom and courage with me! I want you to join me in driving those Western powers out of China and building our own powerful Chinese empire! ”

Chen Zhong's words made several Hainan elders present very emotional, and they were completely impressed by this young Hainan prince.

They seem to have seen the glory of the day the empire was founded, and their hearts burned with passion and hope, and the military of Hainan, at this moment, has reached unprecedented unity!

"That's it! That's the end of today's military meeting! The strategic deployment formed this time will be implemented immediately by all ministries! General Zhou, tomorrow you and General Zhang Tong will receive the Russian mission together! ”

"Yes!" Zhou Zhiguang is still a little unconvinced, will the Russians really come to Hainan?

At this moment, in the Tsarskoye Village of St. Petersburg of the Russian Empire, Nicholas II was listening to the battle report on the battlefield in the northeast.

Nicholas II was the Russian commander-in-chief of the Russo-Japanese War. Nicholas II was physically weak and indecisive from an early age.

The current situation of the Russo-Japanese war really gave him a headache, and when he heard that the Japanese army was meeting with the British side to start a war with Hainan, China, he was even more upset.

Empress Alexandra Feodorovna walked up to her husband's side, stroked Nicholas II's frowning brow, and said: "My dear, the emperor of the empire should not hesitate to worry about this little thing, you are the ruler of this world, you have the power to call the wind and rain, and your rights are given to you by God!"

Don't be restless for the sake of those Japanese dwarfs, and destroy little Japan is the firm will of our Tsarist Empire!

This little Japan asked the old woman of the Qing court for help, this has violated the rules of our game in this war, let my Tsarist envoy in the Qing Dynasty tell the disgusting old woman Cixi, if they really prevent the army in Hainan from fighting the Japanese army, it is equivalent to declaring war on our Tsarist Russian Empire, and we will immediately send troops to Beijing!

In addition, I ordered my envoys in the Qing Dynasty to form a delegation to Hainan, and we allocated some funds to fund the army in Hainan, so that they could kill those Japanese!

Immediately summon the British, French, and German envoys to Russia and tell them that if anyone openly supports Japan's war in the South China Sea, our Russian fleet will also respond accordingly in all regions! ”

Nicholas II's face gradually soothed, and he looked at his beautiful queen with a smile, and then said: "The queen has heard her words, go and do it immediately!" ”

Tsar Nicholas II's empress, the daughter of Ludwig IV, Grand Duke of Hesse and Darmstadt in Germany, was named Alix, and changed her name to Alexandra Feodorovna after marriage.

She's a power-trick, hysterical woman. She was stubborn and willful, and to a certain extent played a pivotal role in Nicholas II. Nicholas II once called Empress Alexandra Feodorovna "the one whom I trust absolutely." ”

Therefore, Nicholas II immediately wrote a letter to Cixi of the Qing court, in which he sternly reprimanded the Qing court for not fulfilling its promise and sending troops to help the Japanese without authorization, which was a blatant provocation to Tsarist Russia! If you continue to encircle and suppress the armies of Guangxi and Hainan, it will be a declaration of war against Russia!

In a letter to Wilhelm II of Germany, he explained the importance of the Battle of the South China Sea for Russia, and asked him to prevent Britain and France from sending troops in order to curb the expansion of Japanese interests in the Far East!

At the same time, France also received a letter from the Tsar, who believed that Russia, Germany and France had a private agreement on the interests of the Japanese in China, and that Russia had the support of France in the Russo-Japanese War. If the French interfered in the Hainan affair, it would inevitably be tantamount to indirectly helping the Japanese. In this way, it harms both the interests of Russia and the interests of France in China!
