Chapter Eighty-Five: You're the One Who Blackmails
The battleship Yang Guoyu of the Chinese class was heading towards Hong Kong unhurriedly, and Wang Lin finished his breakfast at home in the morning without hurrying, and then he hurried to the military port and boarded the battleship that was built from the outside.
Except for the two submarines of the Pacific Fleet, which continued to stay in Hainan to be in charge of guarding, the remaining eight ships all went to Hong Kong together, and as for the Indian Ocean Fleet, they were naturally where they should be, so they could make some contribution to the negotiations, but there was also a brigade of troops drawn from the battlefield on the Western Front in the Indian Ocean Fleet. Of course, the Pacific Fleet is not escorting Wang Lin, and the main task is to go there to scare the British, so that they can buy two more Chinese ships.
There are not many people in this negotiation, only Wang Lin and Foreign Minister Tang Yun, for this negotiation Wang Lin intends to go into battle in person, although he is not a professional diplomat, but only he knows what his strength is, and he personally went on the horse this time is also to tell Tang Yun what to do in the diplomatic work in the future, blindly weak will only make himself weaker, China does not need weak diplomats.
"Teacher, I heard that a sergeant played the Prince of Wales a few days ago, and I heard from the people below that our brothers who were present at that time all shouted in their hearts when they heard it." Tang Yun stood on the deck, stood with Wang Lin and said softly.
"Hehe, that guy is also a character, and he dares to do that in the face of a group of British aristocrats, what we lack now is this kind of hard-headed person." Wang Lin wanted to laugh when he thought of Zhang Tianfang's performance that day, a sergeant pretended to be a lieutenant general and played a group of British nobles fiercely, and then the impatient suspect was not good, this is not good, I am afraid that the only one who can do this kind of thing is that kind of living treasure, right?
"Teacher, are you talking about Tang San?" Tang Yun grew up with Tang San, Tang Fenghu and Tang Zhiyun, everyone knows who they look like, and they can feel this meaning after being by Wang Lin's side for a long time.
"Maybe I'm too anxious, you are all so young, but you are already in a high position, maybe you are not suitable for this kind of life as a decision-maker, Tang San is a bold and wise person, but I feel as if I have become a restriction on his development, so that now he is afraid of what he does, and he has to ask me for advice before doing anything, obviously he has done a good job, but he is still a little unconfident." Wang Lin sighed, why didn't he want to solve Tang San's problem quickly? If this problem cannot be solved within a year, Wang Lin already has a plan to replace him.
"Tang San is afraid that he will do something wrong and make it difficult for the teacher, he mentioned to me very vaguely when the two of us chatted before, I think he should let him go out to lead the troops by himself, none of us will give him any advice, and everything will be solved by him alone, so that when he comes back, he may be a mature deputy commander of the army." Tang Yun nodded.
Wang Lin no longer spoke, but thought about how to solve Tang San's problem, as long as the war in Hong Kong is resolved, his prestige in the country will definitely soar, and at that time, maybe many troops will directly surrender, is Tang San responsible for the reorganization of the troops? Or let him lead the troops into battle?
As Wang Lin thought about the huge battleship slowly sailed into Victoria Harbor, several escort warships that had been wandering outside the harbor were also stared at by Shan Yong, looking at this kind of battleship that could sink itself with one shot, several British escort warships suddenly became an obedient little brother, standing there quietly, without the other party's order, not daring to move a minute.
"Buyga, they really have such a big battleship, Philmant is really not lying." The Prince of Wales opened his mouth wide and looked at the battleship with a full load displacement of 30,000 tons in front of him.
Wang Lin walked off the battleship slowly, followed by Tang Yun, the two of them waved to the soldiers in all directions, reporters from all over the world raised their cameras to take pictures, saying that it was to keep the figure of the new king of the Far East rather than to take pictures of the battleship behind him and send it back to China, but this also happened to Wang Lin's mind, with these three Chinese ships in addition to negotiations is to make a show, everyone has seen its power in front, the battleship of the world's boss British is Sun Tzu in front of it, I'm bringing it to you now to show you a lot of money just to make you excited, and then come to me to buy it.
"This is the Prince of Wales, right? Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to the beautiful Victoria Harbour with my soldiers, thank you. Wang Lin walked up to George, Prince of Wales, and stood straight and spoke without any politeness or respect.
Seeing Wang Lin wearing that military uniform, George, Prince of Wales, had the urge to cry, why was he so young? Why is he so powerful? And why did he come here in this military uniform? After a while, the Prince of Wales has gradually begun to have a sense of fear of this military uniform, of course, most of the credit belongs to Zhang Tianfang, this northeastern soldier looks very grinning, but in the treatment of British guests absolutely did not say, no Chinese who know this matter dare to say that Zhang Tianfang did not do well, as for the evaluation of the British can only be another matter.
"I want to complain, I want to complain about this impolite soldier, who behaved very rudely, and who repeatedly insulted the authority of the British Empire, and I want you to respond to this matter, or we will not negotiate with you." The Prince of Wales threatened coldly.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Wang Lin looked at the Prince of Wales with a natural expression, only to see George nodded, very sure that this thing will happen, the honor of the British Empire is not allowed to be insulted by anyone, not even the French, let alone you monkeys in the Far East.
Wang Lin looked at Zhang Tianfang with a serious face, stared at him for a long time, and then said angrily: "Who made you do this?" They all said that they would treat our British guests well, and you see that you entertained others, full of exhaustion and dishes, which is too hateful, and this matter can't be left as it is. ”
Zhang Tianfang was even more aggrieved at this time, it was Qiu Jiyun who asked me to do this, and it was Wang Lin who gave the order to do this, why did it come to me when there was fire in the end? Is this the benefit of coming out? Or am I being tricked?
Wang Lin continued to speak coldly: "Sergeant, you have been dismissed, now hand over your weapons and take off your rank." ”
"Oh, dear king, I am very pleased with your response, and I think that if you can arrange for us to stay in the best hotel at once, and then arrange for us to have a wine and a delicious lunch, then perhaps our negotiations will go more smoothly." When George saw Wang Lin, he immediately dismissed the sergeant who was playing with him, and he was happy in his heart, as if Zhang Tianfang was his enemy in his previous life.
Wang Lin didn't look at George, fundamentally ignored the existence of this person, and then changed the conversation and continued: "In a few days, you will go back to Hainan with me and report to the National Defense University, it is a pity that such a soldier who dares to work against the great powers is not an officer." ”
After speaking, Wang Lin shook his head, as if he was lamenting that he had discovered Zhang Tianfang a little late, leaving only Zhang Tianfang who was in a daze and George and others who had not yet reacted.
Zhang Tianfang was originally a rough man, he didn't know much before he came to the Hainan Army, but compared with those soldiers who didn't know a single word, he was also a literate person, after coming to Hainan, he had a fixed time to learn culture every night, and it took less than a year for Zhang Tianfang to read the newspaper by himself, and there were very few words he didn't know, and now it was not difficult to enter the military academy, but he never thought that he would enter the military academy like this, so he praised the step from a soldier to an officer.
"The Prince of Wales? Let's go negotiate, I don't want to waste too much time here, you know, I've been busy overthrowing the Qing court lately, and I still have a lot to do. Wang Lin looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and he felt desperate in less than a minute after he was satisfied, and by the way, he also knew that the Hainan army was all a master of protecting the short.
Wang Lin led a group of people to the negotiation site that had been prepared for a long time, and then each went to find his own place, but the two sides had a dispute over who should sit on the seat, and the British believed that Hong Kong was a British colony, so the Prince of Wales should sit on the throne. On the contrary, the Chinese think that Hong Kong is ours and that you are just passers-by. Just when the two sides were still arguing, Wang Lin sat directly on the upper seat, holding a spur in his hand and knocking on the table hard: "You still can't talk about it, sit down quickly, don't delay my time, I only give you half a day today, if you haven't reached an agreement before dinner, you will only have two choices, one is that we continue to maintain a war posture, and the other is to pay me a million pounds a day for negotiations." ”
"King, you are blackmailing, naked blackmail." George blushed and pointed at Wang Lin and shouted.
"Calm, calm, negotiation is something you and I want, since you can't get a result, then I don't need to waste time here, don't you say? What's more, the German ambassador is still waiting for me in Hainan, how can I let the German ambassador wait for me for so long? Wang Lin said without any restraint, but his heart was already happy, he was in a hurry to blackmail the British, and the British had to continue so honestly, even happier than when the Qing court ceded out Hong Kong.
"Germans? What are they going to do? George calmed down, the Germans are ambitious, everyone knows that it is certainly not a good thing for the Germans to find this evil star in the Far East, after all, Asia is too far away from the British mainland, and Germany is a strip of water, everything as long as it concerns Germany, as the future king of England, George must be carefully understood.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a little business to talk about."
