Just a few days before Zhang Wei was about to return to China for the Spring Festival, Hua Guoqiang, Song Shijie and others rushed to the Pensacola Naval Base to see Zhang Wei off. 【】

Zhang Wei first asked Hua Guoqiang about the progress of the war against the Americans.

Hua Guoqiang lamented that the Americans' blitzkrieg could not be fought, and the tactics of sneak attack had been perfected.

Subsequently, Song Shijie suddenly asked: "Your Majesty, I have never understood why the empire did not directly occupy the Great Qing Kingdom, but supported Yuan Shikai to be the emperor?" If Yuan Shikai is ambitious, it will not be a good thing for the empire to go against or oppose the empire's immigration policy. ”

At this time, everyone else looked at Zhang Wei, hoping to get an accurate answer from Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei is still cliché, he didn't say anything meaningful, he just didn't want to waste time, there was too much land to occupy in the world, and he didn't want the Chinese to fight the Chinese.

As for Yuan Shikai, Zhang Wei means that his ability is good, but it also has great historical limitations, so he should not be afraid.

At this time, Song Shijie took out a telegram and handed it to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei carefully browsed it and said: "Indeed, as you said, Yuan Shikai's ambition is getting bigger and bigger. ”

Then, Zhang Wei handed the telegram to everyone else to read it, and everyone understood what Zhang Wei said that Yuan Shikai's ambition was indeed getting bigger and bigger.

It turned out that the content of the telegram was sent by Wu Wenbin to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and then forwarded to the Lu State Council and handed over to Zhang Wei.

The content of the telegram was that after the establishment of the Chinese Empire, Yuan Shikai was engaged in internal discussions, preparing to cancel all agreements and treaties signed by the Great Qing State, and to deny all indemnities.

Wu Wenbin also got the news from a special channel.

Zhang Wei had long instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that in the future relations with the Chinese Empire would be purely commercial cooperation, and that things that were not beneficial would no longer help them. In this matter, if there is no great benefit, Zhang Wei will not support Yuan Shikai, otherwise, the price of being an enemy of the entire Western country is also very large, and Xiao En Xiaohui will not be able to impress Zhang Wei, not to mention anything else, but the indemnity in the "Xinchou Treaty" and the land dispute with the Russian Empire are very troublesome.

Hua Guoqiang said: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shikai's ambition has indeed swelled relatively quickly, and after the empire occupies the Indochina Peninsula and the Far East and Central Asia, he will definitely have friction with the empire because of territorial and border issues, especially after handing over the Southern Xinjiang Special Region and the Western Xinjiang Special Region to him, his ambition will be even greater, and will the empire be able to control it then?" I think it's better to take advantage of the situation to kill him. ”

Zhang Wei said: "Your worries are superfluous, I have never worried about these things, and I am not afraid that his ambition will swell, I am afraid that he will not swell." ”

Song Shijie hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, how can you see it, then you analyze it and we will listen to it." 【】”

Zhang Wei smiled and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the advantage of the empire is that it has a powerful army and cutting-edge weapons, and the other is that it has a vast territory and a sparse population; And the advantage of the Chinese Empire is also huge, but their technology and military are not as good as the empire, the only thing stronger than the empire is that they have a large population, which is both their advantage and their disadvantage, think about it, according to the fertility habits of the Chinese, will the fertility enter the peak after the social stability, and the population will grow significantly? Based on 400 million, tens of millions of newborn children will be born every year, and after the society is stable, people's life expectancy will also be extended. Do you think they will be unable to leave their homeland when they don't have enough to eat? In 1908, it was initially estimated that 8 million people had emigrated to the Xia Empire, which was still limited by the lack of transportation capacity, otherwise the number of immigrants would definitely exceed 10 million, so I was not worried about immigration from the beginning, but worried that after occupying there, it would become a heavy burden and affect the development speed of the empire. ”

Hua Guoqiang said: "If, as Your Majesty said, if Yuan Shikai opposes immigration, it will definitely cause civil strife, and he will definitely not dare to give orders casually." ”

Zhang Wei continued: "The Chinese in the Western Xinjiang Special Economic Zone and the Southern Xinjiang Special Economic Zone have been immigrated away in large numbers, and those who remain in the local area are ethnic minority people, and after the empire hands over these two places to them, there must be indispensable troubles, Yuan Shikai must be busy with these things, so there is time and energy to find trouble with the empire?" ”

Song Shijie hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is also a good way, but the time is still early." ”

Zhang Wei continued: "If the time is short, I estimate that Yuan Shikai's lifespan will not exceed 10 years, if he obeys the instructions of the empire and cooperates with the actions of the empire, then the empire will support Yuan Kewen as the crown prince of the Chinese Empire, and if Yuan Shikai's ambition is inflated and against the empire, then support Yuan Keding as the crown prince." ”

Song Shijie asked: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shikai still has less than 10 years to live, this is indeed good news, as long as he does not oppose the Xia Empire, then the emperor of the Chinese Empire will basically continue to implement some of his policies; But what does this have to do with his two sons? ”

Zhang Wei said with a smile: "I also heard from Lu Weimin, he said that the eldest son Yuan Keding has mediocre ability and great ambition, which can be described as ambitious and talented; The second son, Yuan Kewen, is very intelligent, has a high memory, can never forget, and has a strong ability to understand. ”

Zhang Wei said this, and everyone understood what Zhang Wei meant, if Yuan Keding was made the heir, the Chinese Empire would probably die.

Zhang Wei saw that everyone was a little suddenly enlightened, so he continued: "There is also the most important place, the Chinese Empire will never be comparable to the Xia Empire, that is, the Chinese Empire is a family-centered country, and most of the citizens of the Xia Empire are directly facing the society and the country, and not facing the family first like the citizens of the Chinese Empire, so the cohesion of the Chinese Empire will never be as good as our Xia Empire." ”

Song Shijie sighed: "The thousand-year-old tradition of scholars cannot be eliminated in a short period of time, and this is indeed a major obstacle to the rapid development of the Chinese Empire. ”

Zhang Wei saw that everyone understood, so he didn't continue to dwell on this topic, so he said: "I have decided to make some fine-tuning of the theater of the Lu State, merge the Western Theater and the Southern Theater into the Western Theater, and abolish the Northern Theater, the Western Theater Staff is still stationed in San Francisco, and the chief of staff is still Jin Shunian, chief of staff of the Western Theater. ”

Hua Guoqiang immediately saluted and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”

Zhang Wei continued: "I have decided to establish the Southern Theater, with the former chief of staff of the Northern Theater as the chief of staff of the Southern Theater, which includes many islands along the Caribbean coast from Mexico to the north of Colombia. Now let's first form the First Army of the Lu State, with the 3rd Division and the 3rd Cavalry Division of the Praetorian Guard directly under the jurisdiction of the Northern Theater as the main force, and the General Staff will be equipped with 2 national defense divisions and 1 brigade of Japanese mercenaries, with a total strength of 72,000 people. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Feng Guohua replied happily. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
