Chapter 115: Shameless

After Qiao Yu took it, he saw that there were a total of six conditions listed above as Germany's help to Sichuan to upgrade the Sichuan factory, the first is to protect all German interests in Sichuan and expand them appropriately; second, Germany sent an advisory group to train the Sichuan military police; third, the Sino-German trading company was established to be responsible for the acquisition of Sichuan products for Germany; Fourth, Sichuan University offers German courses, and the first choice for studying abroad is Germany; fifth, to ensure the security of the riverside area; The 6th Sichuan Army had to procure all ordnance from Germany.

Qiao Yu looked at these six articles, and his heart couldn't stop churning, whether it was the Germans or the British, as long as it was a Western power, there was no good thing, and they were insatiable, this was to fully control themselves economically and militarily, if it was fully implemented, I was afraid that Sichuan would completely become a German colony, but soon there would be a war, and I would take the benefits I got first, and then kick the Germans away.

"Mr. Consul General, there are some conditions that I can not agree to as a local force, and I do not have this power, so I think some conditions should be discussed, I am willing to introduce Germany's advanced military experience, but can the advisory group be changed to an observation group, and for example, the third trading company can be opened, but for local products, we must implement the minimum protective price policy to protect the interests of the people, and I am inclined to Germany on the issue of arms procurement, but I should also have the right to purchase weapons from other countries to consider the attitude of other powers."

Wei Si took out these six articles also to ask for a sky-high price, to repay the money on the spot, and when he saw that Qiao Yu was still on the road, he was very satisfied, Germany actually had a plan to steadily include Sichuan into the bag, and for Sichuan University, it was to cultivate pro-German forces in the long run, and then this land would naturally ripen and become a de facto colony of Germany.

"Joe, these conditions are already very favorable, I think many other local leaders will compete to agree!"

Qiao Yu glanced at Wei Si playfully: "Mr. Consul General, I don't know if you have gotten any information about the Hanyang Iron Works, I am ready to include Han Yeping in my bag, and now I am said that this and Britain are allies, according to this momentum, I am afraid that Germany's interests in China will soon be squeezed by the British alliance, Germany's army is very strong, but it can't go to the Far East, it is still the territory of the British, and there will not be too many people who can boldly cooperate with Germany in an all-round way!" ”

Qiao Yu said that he deliberately stopped here, Wei Si's face was already a little unsightly, and he lost the composure of a diplomat, saying that Ben was going to get involved in the Hanyang Iron Works, which added fuel to the fire of the already complicated situation, it seems that Germany must speed up, otherwise the Far East will really have no chance with Germany.

"Chodudu, I promise you to change the conditions, but you must stop the actions of the Emperor, and Germany will support you if necessary!"

"Mr. Consul General, I look forward to further cooperation between us!"

Cooperation with Germany is one of Qiao Yu's established policies, but reaching this kind of cooperation agreement that is almost an alliance under the city makes Qiao Yu extremely uncomfortable, this is the helplessness of a weak country, but it is useless to feel sorry for yourself, you still have to lie down and try your courage and catch up.

Qiao Yu felt deeply humiliated here, and Tao Chengzhang in Shanghai raised his eyebrows, just after he found out that Wang Zhuqing had a problem, he stepped up the investigation, and soon found that a young man was visiting his whereabouts.

On this day, two people wearing big felt hats mixed into the hospital, one of them was in the corridor, and the other quietly came to the door of Tao Chengzhang's ward, deliberately learning the nurse's voice and shouting: "Mr. Tao, it's time to take medicine!" ”

Immediately someone in the room agreed, and opened the door, and the person standing at the door saw that someone came out of it, so he guessed that it might be Tao Chengzhang, took out a pistol from his arms, and shouted loudly: "Tao Chengzhang, your death is here!" "I was about to shoot when I raised my gun, but I didn't know that a cold muzzle had already poked out from inside the door and pressed it against the assassin's head.

At this moment, the door of a ward on the side opened, and several people rushed out, and Wang Zhuqing, who was in the corridor, was also captured, at this time, the assassin was also covered in cold sweat, it turned out that his actions had already been seen through, if he was captured by life, he was afraid that not only his surname would not be guaranteed, but also sorry for his eldest brother, this person was also a person with a tough heart, taking advantage of Wang Zhuqing's struggle, he suddenly lowered his body, and then hit it, knocking the person who was blocking him away, and rushed into the ward that originally belonged to Tao Chengzhang, Straight to the window, this room is on the second floor and not very high.

This person gritted his teeth and jumped down violently, just when he was about to jump down, he only felt a piercing pain in his shoulder, it turned out that the person chasing behind had already shot, and this person also took out the ruthlessness of an outlaw, jumped from the second floor, and frantically escaped from Guangci Hospital.

"Report to the president, we have captured Wang Zhuqing, who is going to assassinate you, and another assassin escaped, according to Wang Zhuqing, that person's name is Jiang Zhiqing, and he is Chen Qimei's little brother!"

"Waste, how can you let that guy surnamed Jiang escape?" Although Tao Chengzhang was angry, it was useless to do so, but the capture of Wang Zhuqing was also a big gain, so Tao Chengzhang decided to hold a press conference the next day, inviting Chinese and foreign reporters and various elites to gather at the headquarters of the Restoration Society.

Tao Chengzhang, as the leader of the Restoration Society and a great hero in the revolutionary party, the news of his assassination suddenly spread all over the country like wings, and both Chinese and foreign reporters were very eager to know who wanted to kill Tao Chengzhang, whether it was the Manchu Qing Dynasty or Yuan Shikai.

At about 9 o'clock in the morning, Tao Chengzhang came to the scene of the press conference accompanied by everyone, and many reporters were attracted by several people who came with Tao Chengzhang before they could ask about the assassination, including Zhang Jian, the famous leader of the Constitutional Party, Cheng Dequan, the governor of Jiangsu, Cen Chunxuan, the former governor of Sichuan, Wang Dongcheng, the minister of finance of Sichuan, Ma Boyuan, the plenipotentiary representative of Li Yuanhong, and Song Jiaoren, the main figure of the League.

Tao Chengzhang sat on the throne and took the lead in speaking: "Fellow journalists, I must know that I was assassinated just yesterday, but the first thing I want to talk about today is not this matter, but with the support of all people who are enthusiastic about constitutionalism, we have decided to establish a new political party, the United Party.

The main goal of the United Party is to strive to overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty as soon as possible, to achieve the peaceful reunification of the whole country, to eliminate the differences between the North and the South, and to promote the development of constitutional government, the founding of the Republic of China is not easy, and today's achievements are all due to the lives and blood of countless heroes and martyrs, but the road to constitutionalism is bound to be more difficult, since ancient times, China has been a society governed by one person, not a society governed by the rule of law, and it is precisely because of the rule of man that China has fallen into a strange circle of rise and fall and chaos and cannot extricate itself, and we are gathered together today to break this strange circle.

Just yesterday I was assassinated by two assassins, if these two assassins were sent by the Manchus, I have nothing to say about life and death, we are enemies of life and death, but it is not the case that is distressing, this kind of assassination comes from within the revolutionary party, it is instigated by some people in power, they keep talking about the republic, they first use force to coerce the members of the Senate, and then use assassination to achieve their goal of reading, I can only say four words, shameless! ”
