(First update!) That's a small copy, isn't it? ）

In the afternoon of the same day, Ye Kai, who had been waiting in the telegram room of the Praetorian Guard, got the original text of this telegram as soon as possible, but to everyone's surprise, he did not hand over this telegram to Zaifeng at the same time, but went straight back to his office, and then the door was closed, and he did not talk to anyone in the middle.

Sitting on the office chair, Ye Kai took out the code book, and personally translated the words into readable words, but transcribed them on the blank paper at hand, and after ten minutes, Ye Kai, who got all the contents, shook his hand and took a long sigh of relief, as he expected, the content on the message was roughly the same as what he knew before, the Khalkha Mongolian side reported that the animal power was limited in the spring, and there were not enough horses in the horse farm, so they requested a postponement of delivery, and the party would arrive in the capital within four months, and there were polite words such as asking the regent of the prison country to forgive their sinsOf course, these words are all written in concise telegrams.

In Ye Kai's eyes, this telegram with unknown meaning and extremely short wording is clearly an excellent raw material for processing conspiracy, what he has to do is to use his brain a little, and then use his hands to add another layer of meaning to this telegram like a dragon and a phoenix, and then pour it on Zaifeng's angry heart like gasoline.

As we all know, telegrams cherish words like gold, and they have always been deleted to a word, and a word is a fee, and the late Qing Dynasty was even more so, although this telegram belongs to the official document between the government, but it is also a small number of words, a total of more than 100 words, a few lines of concise words, giving Ye Kai a great space to play.

First of all, with a stroke of his pen, he deleted all the words of the last plea for forgiveness, this kind of words that make people feel a little reassuring are completely unnecessary, and secondly, in the application for an extension of delivery, he removed the words that expressed the attitude of the request in the past, after doing this, Ye Kai whispered silently a few times, pondered for a moment, and added such a sentence at the end of the message: The regent of the Song Qing Chamber, according to the previous treaty signed by Mongolia and Russia, all horses are used by the Russian side first, although the other side is very urgent, it is advisable to ration according to the time, How can the faith of the Khalkha tribes be undermined?

What is extremely subtle is that in this passage added by Ye Kai, there is no central or Chinese word at all, and even the title of the Qing Dynasty has become an ambiguous "Qing room", and the only word "play" that shows the relationship between superiors and subordinates is also insignificant in this context.

Read the revised message again, and suddenly, this sincere apology has become a hard-worded announcement, and the gap between them is very different, Ye Kai just changed the way he spoke, adding and decreasing, revealing two completely different attitudes.

Looking at the telegram in his hand, which seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, Ye Kai smiled with satisfaction, he could fully imagine what kind of reaction Zaifeng would have when he saw the content on it, even if he was the initiator, he would not be angry.

Of course, this is tantamount to a ruthless pit of the Khalkha Mongols behind the scenes, but it is not unjust to carry this pot, these years, the Khalkha Mongols have done those things behind the back of the central government and Tsarist Russia, which one is not appalling news, but taking advantage of the situation of internal and external troubles in the empire, they are unable to deal with those Mongolian princes with evil intentions, and they are becoming more and more arrogant.

For more than 30 years, the continuous infiltration of Tsarist Russian forces and the ambitions of some Mongolian nobles have quietly fermented in that vast grassland, otherwise they would not have been eager to break away from Qing rule 20 days after the Xinhai Revolution. At this stage, due to a unified empire, they do not dare to act blatantly for the time being, however, the small actions behind them have been one after another.

In recent years, they maliciously created the illusion of Mongolian and Han antagonism, spread the theory of Mongolian centrality, and plundered legitimate merchants, which made the border between Inner and Outer Mongolia tense for a while.

The reason why Ye Kai wanted to stir up this military horse incident was not only to deter those unscrupulous elements who were trying to split, but also to wake up the high-level Qing court who was still in a dream.

"These Tatar-Tatar barbarians, who are plotting to split, have hit an iron plate this time." With a sneer, Ye Kai walked out of the door with this telegram full of conspiracy

With a "snap", this telegram was thrown heavily on the ground, and Zaifeng only read it once, and his face suddenly turned blue.

Although the entire Qing Empire is suffering from internal and external troubles, it is no longer the majestic posture of the past, but at least it still maintains the identity of a big brother of the Manchurian and Mongolian alliances decently, and the content of this telegram can be summed up in one sentence, provocation, absolutely a naked provocation!

Unlike Inner Mongolia's flag system, Khalkha Mongolia has always been a semi-autonomous body independent of the central government, except for the minister in Kulen and General Uriya Sutai, in the vast Outer Mongolia area is the implementation of the Zasak system, the four major tribal leaders still have huge power over their own tribal affairs, of course, the premise of the existence of these powers, must not contradict the central authority, and now, this red line that cannot be crossed seems to have become precarious

Tushetu Khan, Chechen Khan, Zasaktu Khan, Saiyin Noyan, the history of the submission of the four major tribes of Mobei Mongolia that has been maintained for more than 200 years will not be changed because of this "openly contradictory" telegram incident, except for a group of high-ranking military officials surrounding Zaifeng, no one knows, and even if it is not for Ye Kai's deliberate tampering, at this moment when the domestic revolution is intensifying and the empire is crumbling, no one will notice this magnificent autumn leaf begonia, in the near future, Half of it was bitten off by a greedy and savage Siberian old woolly bear.

Ye Kai wanted to use this opportunity to make early arrangements for the Outer Mongolia region standing on the edge of the powder keg, otherwise two years later, he would have to witness the absurd farce of the establishment of the "Great Mongolian Empire" again.

Of course, everything has to be Zaifeng's turn to make decisions, and there are only a few roads in front of him, which are painless and stern reprimands, or real swords and real guns to cut off the feudal domain and abolish the lord, and even like the three generations of emperors of Kang Yongqian, in nearly a hundred years, with iron and blood against those northwestern alien races who do not submit, just like the Mongolian Junggar Department back then, to completely exterminate the race-race-extermination.

As the supreme head of the empire, Jaefeng has no way out, and he needs to make a final decision on this issue.
