Qiu Jin's words made Hu Chuyuan also a little embarrassed.

In fact, Hu Chuyuan did not intend to really solve those problems himself, which may be his rather selfish aspect.

He was not a great man, although everyone wanted him to be an indispensable great man of our time and China.

On the way back to Zizheng Garden, Hu Chuyuan walked on the blue brick road between the two walls, and he couldn't help but think...... What can be done to make the people richer?

In agriculture, it is necessary to adhere to the current large-scale agricultural economic policy, and in industry, it is necessary to gradually improve the welfare of workers.

What about other than that?

Sometimes I think about it, Hu Chuyuan especially agrees with the high welfare policies implemented by Nordic countries such as Germany and Sweden, but the problem is that China is too big and it is difficult for the development of various regions to be equal, so it is more difficult to implement such policies.

When he established the Grand Ducal Party, didn't he hope to establish a society of the Great Duc of the World?

On the road of just over 600 meters from the Prime Minister's Office to the Information Administration Garden, Hu Chuyuan walked for nearly 10 minutes, and when he returned to the Information Administration Garden, he thought that although it was still very difficult at hand, the social enlightenment of the leftist policy was necessary, and it must be the long-term ruling philosophy of the Grand Ducal Party.

To build an enterprise, he hopes to establish an old enterprise that can be inherited for a hundred years, build a party, and he also hopes to establish an old party that can be in power for a hundred years.

Should we further speed up the building of the Grand Duke's Party?

He thought.

At the end of August, as the French Navy gradually retreated to the port of Rason, the combined fleet of the Beiyang Headquarters stationed at the port of Wonsan launched a general attack on the Russian Navy.

The Chinese Navy is indeed a little impetuous, but there is no suspense in this battle.

Russian Navy ...... To be honest, it's really too bad, and it's still equipped with an ironclad cruiser built in 1883.

There is a world of difference between the Chinese and Russian navies in radio communications, artillery disposition, naval command, ship quality, and combat effectiveness.

Now, Russia really doesn't have any ideas.

Tsar Nicholas II made a request for peace talks to China through Kaiser Wilhelm II, on the condition that he lose money but not land, and that everything else could be negotiated as long as the Chinese [***] team withdrew from Russian territory.

Neuropathy!

Are they only allowed to be greedy, and the Chinese are not allowed to be greedy?

Hu Chuyuan did not refuse the request for peace talks, and the conditions were very simple: all east of the Ural Mountains belonged to Chinese territory, and Tsarist Russia withdrew from Asia, and if it did not retreat, it would continue to fight.

The Russians, of course, do not agree.

During this period, Hu Chuyuan did not intend to really sit down for peace talks with Russia, and after expelling the Russians and the Entente forces from the Far East, the Northeast Corps and the Zhili Corps assembled in Omsk by rail, and the Qingxu Corps went south to join the Jianghuai Corps.

After the fall of Seoul, the army consisted of 17 divisions and nearly 540,000 elite troops forced to retreat to the vicinity of North Chungcheong-do and Daegu, the problem was that their retreat was again cut off by the Chinese navy.

Once again, the tragedy of history has been repeated.

The Beiyang Fleet firmly occupied the port of Busan and Tsushima Island, while the Chinese headquarters fleet was stationed at the port of Wonsan, ready to attack Hokkaido in the south at any time, and the joint formation of the Pacific Fleet and the Nanyang Fleet was stationed in the port of Jinmu Bay, occupying the Iwo Jima Islands and extending its tentacles to the entire southern part of the country.

Before a full redeployment of military forces against Russia, Hu Chuyuan's plan was simple - to annihilate the entire army of the Japanese army in Korea.

On the Northwest Front, some of the main divisions of the Huguang Corps, the Zhili Corps, the Northeast Corps, and the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Corps began to converge and assemble, and the two Canton Corps were fully transferred to Korea and landed at Pusan, cooperating with the Beiyang Fleet and the Marine Division to block the retreat of the Yue Army, and at the same time disperse the main forces of the Yue Army, forcing the Yue Army to draw troops to supplement the defense of Daegu.

The Fujian-Zhejiang Corps and the Nanyang Allied Forces were concentrated in the southern part of the Ryukyu Islands and Kyushu Island, while half of the Southwest Corps was deployed in Vietnam and half was stationed in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong, and other economic centers.

In the Zhili area, Hu Chuyuan still only relied on the Secret Service Garrison Brigade and the descendants and additional troops of the 10th Division of Zhili to maintain the security of the Beijing Division, and the Qingxu Corps remained in Jinzhou with one division, and all localities generally retained a reserve force of one division, in addition to the National Guard Reserve.

The total strength of the army of 2.17 million, plus the 270,000 Nanyang Coalition Army, plus 440,000 naval forces, including the Marine Division, is not overstretched, but it is basically used to the limit.

On the Korean Peninsula, the total strength of China's navy and army has exceeded 700,000, and in the northwest battlefield, the total strength of the Chinese army has exceeded 1.32 million.

September 14th.

In order to coordinate Li Kaiye and Yang Zongli, Lu Guangquan personally arrived in Omsk to serve as commander-in-chief, while Duan Qirui continued to serve as commander-in-chief in North Korea.

I said that this nation is still very special, tenacious and bold, and will do whatever it takes to win, which is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing.

History has proven this.

At this time, there was no need to fight anymore, but they still insisted.

Sometimes the Chinese are not very concerned about practical interests, not only are they poor, the domestic market is not large, and there are no mineral resources, even if they occupy them all, there is no benefit, but the Chinese just want to fight it.

Because it was so arrogant, it was triggered by the Sino-Chinese War and the Far East War.

In the words of the Chinese, it is underbeaten.

However, the Korean battlefield is indeed difficult to fight, and the southern part is all mountainous, which is also a barrier for the Chinese army to try to negotiate the best terms for peace talks with China.

Duan Qirui is very shrewd, he knows that after two years of fighting and training, the current Jianghuai Corps is about the same as the Yuben Army in terms of average combat quality, better equipment, and more artillery units, but the problem is that it is difficult to carry out large-scale operations in the southern Korean battlefield.

Others defend to the death, and he attacks to the death...... He doesn't eat this loss.

He played yin, the vanguard hit Shangzhou, the first round of shelling all hit the Yue language leaflets, persuaded the soldiers of the Yue army to surrender, China is a country of etiquette, preferential treatment of prisoners, China said that they are all Asian countries and yellow people, should be unanimous with the outside world, he promised that China will not attack the territory of the country, will not occupy the territory of the ......!

After the leaflets were distributed, a large-scale bombardment began.

However, Duan Qirui had already used his two armored divisions to land at Pohang Port through naval cooperation, rushed to repair the road, and directly pounced on Daegu, and his main force directly detoured through Wonsan Port, and through a large-scale maritime dispatch, he missed Chungju and cooperated with the armored division to attack Daegu.

There happens to be a flat road from Daegu to Pohang, which is also a miracle in the mountains of southern Korea.

Actually, there are two, one road from Yeongcheon and another road from Gyeongju.

The army was heavily fortified on both roads, but it was easier to attack the area than to storm the mountains, and the armored division broke through from Yongchuan, with the infantry following suit, building roads while fighting, and using auxiliary vehicles to maintain supplies.

On September 27, Duan Qirui captured Daegu and mobilized local laborers to build roads from Daegu to Gumi and from Gyeongju to Busan, Daegu, Pohang, and Ulsan.

He is not in a hurry to fight, the road is repaired, and he will fight again.

A good general will know how to fight, and you don't need to worry about it.

Duan Qirui's idea is very good, although it is different from Hu Chuyuan's idea, but Hu Chuyuan supports him unconditionally.

There are two more roads to go from Gumi to Sangju, which is being defended by the army, you can say that it is a road, or you can say that it is a small plain and hilly area between the mountains, which is enough for armored divisions to rush through.

The domestic production of armored vehicles must be able to keep up, since Duan Qirui is playing like this, Hu Chuyuan will continue to increase the plan to equip the Jianghuai Corps with two new armored divisions.

Considering the situation in the DPRK, this batch of new armored vehicles has begun to use the TZB-4 type, the armor defense has been slightly reduced, the chassis has been increased, the power has increased, and the supercharged technology has been adopted, which is the so-called mountain armored vehicle.

In the Northwest Battlefield, Lu Guangquan's battle was much easier, advancing all the way along the Far Eastern Railway, where he had 2,455 armored vehicles, and 370 of the main armored vehicles of the TZA-1 type alone.

Unless it is a boggard in the cold zone, there is basically no way for Russia to stop this steel torrent offensive.

Russia has now developed a shoulder-mounted 75mm caliber grenade launcher, which is basically the prototype of an individual anti-tank gun, and the threat to TZB series armored vehicles is still very great.

However, the gap between the Chinese and Russian armies is no longer so one or two points.

Especially in the large-scale rout in the early stage, the Russian army's heavy firepower equipment, guns and ammunition stocks were completely insufficient, and even the number of officers was insufficient.

Now, it is the turn of the Russians to expect winter as soon as possible.

The war has been going on, and no one knows what the outcome will be in the end.

On November 4, 1902, Duan Qirui finally advanced the armored division to Sangju, the last garrison area of the Yue army on the Korean Peninsula, and on November 11, the seven-day Battle of Changju ended, with six first-class divisions and four second-class divisions annihilated, and more than 117,000 people surrendered.

On November 13, 1902, Emperor Meiji announced defeat and accepted China's proposal of the "Sino-Tianjin Armistice Treaty", and compensated China with 95 million pounds sterling for military expenses as collateral, to be paid in 15 installments over 15 years, ceding Tsushima Island to the Kingdom of Korea, and ceding the Goto Islands, Oki Islands, Kuroshima Island, Kunashir Island, Shikotan Island, Hamai Islands, Sawazo Island, Shoushima Island, Torishima Island, Iwo Jima Island, and Tanegashima Islands to China.

Nagasaki leased China for 100 years, and international concessions were established in Shimonoseki, Kobe, Nagoya, Osaka, Tokyo, and Yokohama, with China, Britain, the United States, and Germany occupying the dominant powers.

During the 25 years of the "Treaty of Tianjin," it was said that it was forbidden to form an alliance with any country, the current conscription system was abolished, the size of the army should not exceed 200,000 men, the total tonnage of the navy should not exceed 100,000 tons, and warships and submarines of more than 10,000 tons should not be equipped.

The Chinese side set up a military tribunal in Nagasaki to try war criminals and impose financial penalties on the consortium that led the strategy of aggression against China in the country.

The economy of China, Britain, the United States, and Germany, including the financial sector, is fully open to China, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Germany is retained, and the first most-favored-nation status is retained for China, and the central bank system is no longer exercised, and Chinese-funded banks and other foreign-funded banks are authorized to exercise the right to issue currency, and the treasury bonds and their issuance are guaranteed by the law-issuing banks for a period of 25 years.

On the issue of the use of chemical weapons in the war, the Chinese side will continue to retain the right of civil litigation, and will provide long-term compensation for the wounds caused by the chemical weapons left by the Chinese soldiers, and the expenses for the removal of chemical weapons and landmine residues in the Ryukyu Islands and the DPRK will be borne by the Masax.

The signing of the Treaty of Tianjin, China, officially declared that the treaty had once again become a semi-feudal and semi-colonial country.

This is really a leap back to the pre-liberation period.

After the restoration of peace on the Korean Peninsula, China and the DPRK signed a new "Sino-Korean Territorial Demarcation Agreement" and "Sino-Korean Protection and Trade Treaty" at the same time.

Under the new protection and trade treaty, China made concessions, and within the treaty, North Korea would have some diplomatic autonomy in exchange for Tsushima in exchange for Ulleungdo as Chinese territory.

The Chinese side has the right to make full investments within the DPRK, the Central Bank of the DPRK must be supervised by the United Bank of Asia, and similarly, North Korean citizens can invest in China's free investment zone.

At this time, China's free investment zone developed from the early 14 industrial cities, and expanded to 27 coastal provinces.

Correspondingly, the treaty is still very equal in terms of trade, and whether North Korean citizens can afford to invest in China is a matter of their own.

For China, the area of the former North Hamgyong Province in North Korea in the western part of the Changbai Mountains is still very valuable, especially after the Tumen River is designated as the Neijiang River, China's control over the Benhai region has been greatly increased.

In particular, with the acquisition of the Oki Islands and Ulleungdo Island, China has acquired the ownership of most of the sea area in the Honkai Sea in terms of sea power.

At present, there is no clear conclusion on the sea frontier in the international world, and once the conclusion is formed, it will be really interesting.

After the signing of the "Sino-Chinese Treaty of Tianjin", the entire Entente system completely collapsed, and together with the 57 million pounds in compensation from the Netherlands and Spain, China's military spending problem improved greatly.

Now China is beginning to concentrate all its forces against Russia.

Russia can't hold it either, and it's a mess at home and abroad.

The problem is that although Britain, Germany, and the United States want China to weaken Russia, they do not want China to expand on a large scale, and the benefits that China has previously obtained from France, Benedict, Spain, and the Netherlands are acceptable, and it is also acceptable to take the Far East and Kazakhstan and Central Asia.

Britain, Germany, and the United States have actively intervened and mediated, but they do not have enough conditions in their hands to restrain China, and the times are different, let alone the dispatch of warships to China's waters to force peace.

The three countries all have great interests in China and the colonies in China, and the problems such as the French economic guarantee determine that they cannot be too tough.

With the initiative completely in China's hands, Britain, Germany, and the United States can basically do their best to persuade China through diplomatic channels and through the good traditional cooperative relations between the three countries and China, especially by taking advantage of their relationship with Hu Chuyuan, and some veteran diplomats have come out one after another to gather in Yanjing.

Hu Chuyuan put his figure very low, and every old friend who came to visit, he would personally receive it, and he talked about it very carefully, but he insisted on one principle...... Russia must make significant concessions and impose greater restrictions and economic control on Russia.

As he talked, he continued to increase his efforts to deploy troops and distribute supplies in preparation for a further full-scale offensive.

At this time, Li Kaiye had already advanced to Tyumen and was attacking Yekaterinburg on the periphery, while Yang Zongli led the Zhili Corps to seize a gap and tear open the southern defense line and capture Chelyabinsk.
