readx;??? readx; In Yuan Shikai's mansion, he and his ministers were still arguing over the secret documents sent by the Japanese. www.biquge.info.dt

Secretary of State Xu Shichang said: "We categorically cannot agree to this document from Japan and the United States!" This is clearly a document that will destroy our Chinese nation! If we agree to this condition, we will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever, and at that time, we will surely become the sinners of the Chinese nation through the ages! ”

Foreign Minister Sun Baoqi nodded and said: "What Lord Xu said is that this is indeed an extremely humiliating treaty, but if we do not agree to this condition, Japan and the United States will definitely not send troops to help us." ”

Army Chief Duan Qirui said: "With the current strength of our Beiyang New Army, we simply cannot compete with the Hainan Army, and without the help of Japan and the United States, we have no way out!" What can we do if we don't agree to this condition? ”

Yuan Shikai was still pacing back and forth in the hall, and his foreign minister, Sun Baoqi, and vice minister Cao Rulin, said: "You should immediately meet with the Japanese and American ambassadors to China, ask them to make further amendments to the contents of this treaty, and tell them that even if we can agree to such a contract, if we let the people know about it, it will not be approved, and at that time, it will definitely cause turmoil in the domestic situation." ”

Foreign Minister Sun Chuanqi and Vice Minister Cao Rulin, although they knew that this was an impossible task, nevertheless met with the Japanese and US ambassadors to China, and after two days of heated arguments, in the end, they could not reach an agreement.

Obviously, with the ambition of Rimei Shikai and the situation at this time, they are determined to eat this Yuan Datou.

The enemy is not far away, and the lone skill is far away, so the enemy is too far away

After Sun Baoqi and Cao Rulin returned, after giving Yuan Shikai a detailed account of the entire negotiation process, Yuan Shikai fell into deep thought.

Yuan Shikai was also extremely reluctant to agree to such a traitorous contract, but for the sake of the political dream he had longed for for half his life, Yuan Shikai had completely lost his former calm.

In the face of supreme power, Yuan Shikai compromised. He wants to agree to the terms of the United States and Japan first, and in the future, he will gradually regain what he has lost.

Yuan Shikai told his cabinet his thoughts, although some people strongly opposed, but in the face of reality, they still acquiesced to Yuan Shikai's decision.

They don't know what will happen to their political bloc after this decision?

After Yuan Shikai signed the "East Asia Peace Agreement" treaty with Japan and the United States, the next day, the major media in the country and even many countries published the full content of the treaty.

For a time, it aroused great indignation among people from all walks of life across the country, who demanded that Yuan Shikai's government step down, expel Japan's military forces in North Manchuria, and boycott American enterprises in China.

The Japanese and U.S. ambassadors to China urgently met with Yuan Shikai and questioned how the contract had been leaked.

Yuan Shikai also said with a cold face: "Nima's Laozi is not sick again!" Isn't it your own way to make such a traitorous treaty public? Is it logical to think about it with your ** pig brain?

Now in such a situation, Chen Zhong has given the order to attack Beijing, and our new army in Hebei and Henan is at war with the Hainan army, and I think it will not be long before they will reach Beijing! What about your army? Lao Tzu wants the sincerity of Japan and the United States! ”

The enemy is not hateful, far away from making trouble, and the revenge is unpromised

The Japanese and American ambassadors to China, Shin Sekai, were furious and immediately reported the situation in China to their respective domestic governments.

U.S. President William Howard Taft did not want to send troops to China after learning of China's situation, but the U.S. Congress insisted on using the U.S. Pacific Fleet to deal a devastating blow to Chen's forces with the Japanese Combined Fleet and the British Far East Fleet.

At the insistence of Congress, William Howard Taft was forced to make the decision to send troops to China in order to defend American interests in the Far East.

William Howard Taft spoke with British Prime Minister Henry Asquith. The British Prime Minister endorsed the decision of the US Congress.

Feud is not Yang Yu Coke's old ghost Sun Skill

British Prime Minister Henry Asquith said: "The British have long wanted to teach this arrogant king of Hainan a lesson!" ”

The British and American ambassadors in Beijing soon received orders from China to meet with Chen Zhong, the king of Hainan, urging the king of Hainan to withdraw his troops and put forward a proposal to divide the river and rule the country.

Chen Zhong, who was far away in the palace of Hainan, received a letter from the British and American ambassadors, and Chen Zhong ordered the Foreign Affairs Bureau to reject the unreasonable demands of Britain and the United States.

He also sternly warned that if Britain and the United States insist on going their own way, wantonly interfere in China's internal affairs, and send troops to invade our country, the Hainan army will lead our 40,000,000 compatriots in China to resolutely resist the invading enemy.

At the same time, Chen Zhong ordered the Admiralty and the Foreign Affairs Bureau to jointly issue a circular: "The three Hainan fleets will hold live-fire exercises in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, and during the exercises, the exercise areas will be demarcated.

At this point, the country and the surrounding seas are filled with a thick fog of war, which will also be the largest war in Hainan's military history.

After receiving Chen Zhong's telegram, Britain and the United States decided to send troops to China, and they believed that this was nothing more than Chen Zhong's big words.

The joint fleet of Japan and the United States sailed into the Pacific Ocean, and the whole world thought that it was impossible for the king of Hainan to compete with him, unless he was crazy!

The ship branch does not enmity Yang Yuyuan is the most auspicious Sun Gang

Sun Budi is too hateful, and the most auspicious feather is not

However, just after Britain, Japan, and the United States announced war against the Hainan army, Chen Zhong immediately published a declaration of war against Britain, Japan, and the United States through major media.

At the insistence of Congress, William Howard Taft was forced to make the decision to send troops to China in order to safeguard American interests in the Far East.

The whole world thinks that the king of Hainan is a complete madman, and the British and American fleets are the most powerful naval fleets in the world today, and the Hainan fleet is simply self-defeating to contend with it.

However, the domestic response was different. After people from all walks of life in China learned that Yuan Shikai's government had signed a traitorous agreement, the whole country condemned it.

At this time, the Hainan army made a strong voice and invisibly became the leader in the hearts of the people.

People from all walks of life in China pinned their hopes on the king of Hainan, and the Hainan army became the backbone of the nation during this period.

After a short wait, Chen Zhong finally ushered in the support of the whole country, but they will also face an extremely tragic decisive battle.

In the face of the combined fleet of Britain, Japan, and the United States, whether the three fleets in Hainan can resist the combined fleet of Britain, Japan, and the United States, and where the Chinese nation will go affects the hearts of the people of the whole country.

However, at this moment, Yuan Shikai is secretly happy, in this political competition, he thinks that he has become the biggest winner among them.

Yuan Shikai Meiying was finally angered by Chen Zhong and resolutely sent troops, which was not too far away from his dream of being an emperor of the Chinese Empire.

Chen Zhong telegraphed the whole country and launched a general offensive against Yuan Shikai's Beiyang New Army and the Japanese puppet government in Beiman.

Moreover, the war coordination headquarters was moved to Chongming Island, and he wanted to sit in the military port of Chongming Island and personally command the decisive naval battle against the combined fleet of the United States, Britain and Japan!
