On the afternoon of November 29, in the conference room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the ambassadors of Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Russia, Japan and other countries held the first formal negotiations with Hua Guoqiang, minister of the Lanfang Kingdom.

In order to enhance the international status of the Great Qing State, Zhang Wei requested that Zhao Erxun, the representative of the Great Qing State, be invited to attend the negotiations, after all, the negotiations also involved the land and indemnity of the Great Qing Dynasty, and it was reasonable for him to participate.

Chekovsky, the ambassador of the Russian Empire in Shangjing, was the most impatient, and first stood up and accused the Lanfang Kingdom: "Your Excellency, your country's actions are completely contrary to international law, and your country has not signed a formal agreement with the Japanese Empire, and it is not in accordance with the rules to take Hokkaido and Kyushu Island as its own, and to change its name and set up provinces. ”

Hua Guoqiang said unhurriedly: "Don't you Western countries often say that the truth exists within the range of a cannon? Power is truth! Now that we have defeated Japan, it is entirely up to us in the Lanfang Kingdom to decide. May I ask if the Great Japanese Empire is convinced? If we are not convinced, we will continue to fight, and there will be no need for this negotiation to continue. ”

The U.S. ambassador hurriedly said: "Don't get angry, you don't get angry, negotiations are about talking slowly, so what about talking about anger as soon as it comes up?" It's all gone. ”

The representative of Germany said: "We, the German Reich, support the decision of the Kingdom of Lanfang, which is the right of the victorious country and the price that the defeated country must pay, and we should support it." ”

Hua Guoqiang said: "Think about it, the large colonies of your country are not fought by force, and now it is the turn of our Lanfang Kingdom to occupy 2 small islands by its own strength, everyone is unwilling, then everyone will help us come up with an idea, our Lanfang Kingdom has a total of 19 regular divisions, 19 militia divisions, 3 cavalry divisions, artillery regiments and mercenaries and other troops in the Northern Theater of about 800,000 troops, where should we place these troops?" We are also reluctant to deploy troops so far away, but the logistics are a big burden for us. ”

Speaking of this, Hua Guoqiang deliberately paused.

Everyone used to just feel that the Lanfang Kingdom had a lot of troops, and they didn't know the specific number, and the first time they heard that the Lanfang Kingdom had deployed so many troops in the Northern Theater, they were all taken aback, no wonder the Japanese army that could fight had no power to fight back.

I heard that the logistical pressure of the Lanfang Kingdom is very great, if they really give up these two places and withdraw their troops to the territory of the Lanfang Kingdom, the pressure on the surrounding areas will be too great, whether it is the Philippines of the United States, or the Indochina colony of France, or the surrounding British colonies, they will directly face the strong armed pressure of the Lanfang Kingdom, neither Britain, France nor the United States can face so many troops of the Lanfang Kingdom alone, even if the three countries are united, they may not be able to defeat the Lanfang Kingdom, After all, the logistics and transportation lines of the above three countries are longer, while the Lanfang Kingdom is close to fighting on its own, and there is no pressure on logistics.

At this stage, the navy of the Lanfang Kingdom is even more powerful than any other, and I don't know if the navy of the Lanfang Kingdom has a backhand, and no one dares to be the enemy of the navy of the Lanfang Kingdom, otherwise the end will be completely annihilated, like the Far East Fleet of the Netherlands and Britain, and the combined fleet of Japan, all of which will be annihilated, which is the fate of underestimating the navy of the Lanfang Kingdom.

If the navy of the Lanfang Kingdom was not defeated in advance, if the army was sent in a hurry, the consequence would be that the army's transport ships would be sunk, and the army would go to the sea to feed the fish.

Moreover, the ability of the Lanfang Kingdom to arrange mines, all countries have not been able to crack it so far, and no matter how powerful the army is, it will not be able to crack the opponent's mines, and it will also give the navy of the Lanfang Kingdom war merits when the time comes.

In line with the principle that friends from the dead do not die with poverty, the ambassadors of Britain, France, and the United States agreed in principle that the Kingdom of Lanfang should occupy Hokkaido, Kyushu Island, and the Korean Peninsula, and that the final result should be subject to domestic instructions.

Hua Guoqiang felt that everyone's attitude had changed, and it was not easy to continue to exert pressure, so he said slowly: "We set up a province to let the troops eat and reduce our logistical pressure, but in fact, there is no other meaning. ”

The ambassador of the Russian Empire, sensing that everyone was not on the same side as expected, hurriedly changed the subject and said: "The war between your country and the Great Japanese Empire is a matter between armies and armies, but your warships have shelled the coastal cities of Japan and bombed all the industrial cities of Japan with unknown weapons, causing a large number of civilian deaths and causing a humanitarian disaster, which is a violation of humanitarianism, and your country must reflect on it and apologize and compensate the Japanese civilians. And make unknown weapons public. ”

In particular, the desire of various countries for unknown weapons has led everyone to unite and target the Lanfang Kingdom unanimously, and this weapon that has caused a humanitarian catastrophe must be made public.

Hua Guoqiang did not follow the topic of the ambassadors, but said naturally: "Our two countries are in a state of war, and it is inevitable that there will be some civilian casualties, and we do not intend to cause civilian casualties, these are all accidental injuries, and the massacre of the Japanese army in Lushun was the use of the army to attack the unarmed civilian masses, even the children are not spared, I believe that everyone still remembers it vividly, that is, the photos in the newspaper are easy to find; The "Hailan Pao Massacre" and the "Jiangdong 64 Tun Massacre" created by the Russian Empire are naked massacres, and this is not a violation of humanitarianism? Compared to the actions of your two countries, our Kingdom of Lanfang is the Blessed Mother of Mercy, at least our army has not taken the initiative to massacre civilians such as the elderly, the weak, and children in the occupied areas. ”

The Germans had long been promised by the Lanfang Kingdom that they would sell this mysterious war weapon to Germany after the negotiations were over, so the German ambassador was still on the side of the Lanfang Kingdom in this matter and tried his best to prevent other countries from obtaining war weapons.

At this time, Ambassador Streesmann felt that he had to help the Lanfang Kingdom withstand the pressure, and he couldn't easily let the countries get what they wanted, so he said: "Who in the countries has not caused this kind of accidental injury? Need me to list them all? It is inevitable that a certain percentage of civilian casualties will be caused in war, and even that country cannot avoid it, and if all of them are investigated, the negotiations will not be able to proceed, and the international tribunal will be left to the table. I don't think everyone's mentality has been reconciled, so I suggest that the meeting be adjourned today and the talks will resume tomorrow morning. ”

The countries also wanted to unify their voices again after going back, so they agreed to Straesmann's suggestion and adjourned the meeting temporarily, thus hastily ending the first face-slapping operation of the Lanfang Kingdom.

Zhao Erxun sat on the seat and felt numb all over his body, this is a big country, this is the demeanor of a big country, this is a naked slap in the face, using the concept of Westerners to deal with Westerners, crushing people with powerful weapons, whether it is on the battlefield or at the negotiation table, the opponents who are beaten are not able to form an army, and these foreign devils no longer have the arrogance they had when they were in the Great Qing Kingdom, so that they also tasted the aggrieved feelings of the Great Qing Kingdom.
