Cabinet Prime Minister Wang Yan was summoned into the Forbidden City by Lin Daxin, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, early in the morning, after Wang Yan saw Lin Daxin in the Qianqing Palace, he said to Lin Daxin excitedly: "Your Majesty, after Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Turkish Empire ceded land and paid reparations to our Chinese Empire, the Russians and the Japanese could not hold on, and they sent the will to end the war to our Chinese Empire through various channels. However, this time, we can't easily let go of these two countries that hate our Chinese Empire extremely much, and if we want the Chinese Empire's army to stop continuing to attack Russia and Japan, the two countries must come up with war reparations that satisfy us. ”

It stands to reason that Lin Daxin's mood must be very good because of the good news that Russia and Japan are soft, but now Lin Daxin does not have a smile on his face, as if he is indifferent to such good news, which makes Wang Yan stunned, and then Lin Daxin did not continue Wang Yan's words, but waved his hand to the guards in the Qianqing Palace, and asked the guards to withdraw, and soon there were Lin Daxin and Wang Yan left in the entire Qianqing Palace.

Wang Yan saw that there were no outsiders in the Qianqing Palace, and immediately knew that something must be wrong, otherwise Lin Daxin would not let the guards of the Qianqing Palace retreat, and couldn't help but ask with some surprise: "Your Majesty, what happened?" ”

Lin Daxin said with a gloomy face: "There is an outbreak of the epidemic in Yalujiang Province, and the troops deployed by our Royal Army in Yalujiang Province have also been affected by the epidemic. ”

Wang Yan said in surprise: "The epidemic? Why didn't the minister know? ”

Lin Daxin said in a deep voice: "It was I who asked the Secret Bureau to tightly seal the news of the epidemic, and now there are nearly 4,000 civilians and more than 800 officers and soldiers of the Royal Army. Dying of this epidemic, I was afraid to let the Russians and Japanese know that there was an epidemic in our Chinese Empire. Then there will be some unpredictable changes, so order the army of Yalu Province. The lockdown of the area where the outbreak occurred, and the news of the outbreak in Yalu River province was also blocked. ”

Wang Yan exclaimed, "What! With so many people dead, what are the symptoms of this outbreak? ”

Lin Daxin sighed and said: "The symptoms are somewhat like the flu, in addition to headache, high fever, muscle aches and loss of appetite, there are also symptoms such as blue complexion, coughing up blood, etc., and from the onset of the disease to death, the time is very short, some people are normal in the morning, and they are found to be infected at noon." As a result, they had already died in the evening, and most of the thousands of soldiers and civilians who died now were young adults between the ages of 20 and 35, and the infection rate of this epidemic was also very high, even some doctors and nurses who treated patients were also infected. ”

Wang Yan frowned and asked, "Your Majesty, can this outbreak of the epidemic be cured?" ”

Lin Daxin's face became more solemn and said: "It is because this outbreak of the epidemic cannot be cured that I ordered the news to be blocked, and now the people who have been infected with the epidemic have been determined." The longest did not live for 5 days, and our Chinese Empire did not have a special medicine for this epidemic, so it can be said that this epidemic is very serious, if this epidemic is allowed to break out in all the domestic provinces of our entire Chinese Empire. Our Chinese empire is in trouble. ”

"So serious! You must know that our Chinese empire has always been the strongest in the world in terms of medicine, and if even we don't have a special medicine, then it is impossible for other countries to have a special medicine to cure this epidemic. ”

"In order to control this epidemic. I have ordered the Royal Army to lock down all the places where the outbreak has broken out, and not allow those inside to leave the lockdown zone. In addition, all those who have been in contact with the infected person have been quarantined. It is hoped that this ferocious epidemic will be brought under control. ”

Wang Yan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, in another time and space, can you think of a way?" Wang Yan is one of the insiders who knows Lin Daxin's secret.

Lin Daxin smiled bitterly and said: "I went back to that time and space, and consulted the relevant information, our epidemic is very similar to the Spanish flu that broke out from 1918 to 1919 in history, it is not an infectious disease caused by bacteria, it should be caused by a virus, I don't know what reason it will be nearly 10 years in advance, it broke out in Yalujiang Province of our Chinese Empire, and I didn't find a special medicine to solve this epidemic in that time and space, what makes me even more terrifying is that Historically, the Spanish flu caused about 1 billion infections and 25 million to 40 million deaths worldwide, and its name is not because the flu broke out in Spain, but because about 8 million people in Spain were infected with the disease at that time, and even the king of Spain was infected with the disease, so it is called the Spanish flu. ”

Listening to Lin Daxin's description of this epidemic, Wang Yan couldn't help but gasp, he deeply felt a kind of crisis, if the epidemic broke out in Yalujiang Province of the Chinese Empire, like the Spanish flu in history, it was likely to bring unprecedented losses to the Chinese Empire, and it was necessary to do everything possible to control the epidemic and spread to other parts of the Chinese Empire.

Wang Yan thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is ready to leave immediately and go to Yalujiang Province, this epidemic is menacing, this epidemic must be controlled in Yalujiang Province, and it must not be spread to other provinces of our Chinese Empire, and the minister is ready to personally direct the work of preventing and controlling this epidemic." ”

Lin Daxin sighed and said: "Cousin, I also hope that you will command the prevention and control of this epidemic in Yalu River Province, others go, I am not at ease, we must control the spread of this epidemic and minimize the loss of our Chinese Empire, but I am worried about your safety, you must know that once you are infected, there is basically no help." ”

Wang Yan immediately said: "The emperor can rest assured, the minister will be more careful, then the minister will go back to explain the work matter in a while, and immediately leave for Yalu River Province, and this epidemic will be controlled!" ”

Lin Daxin nodded, and then said helplessly: "Before receiving the outbreak of the epidemic in Yalujiang Province, I was ready to settle the new accounts and old accounts with the Russians and Japanese, alas-this time the outbreak of the epidemic in Yalujiang Province is not the time, and now the focus of our Chinese empire must be on the epidemic in Yalujiang Province." This war has also been fought for a long time in our Chinese Empire, although it is not exhausting. But the supplies paid, and the troops lost. It's huge, and it's time to recuperate, alas—"

In fact, Lin Daxin is very unwilling to let go of Russia and Japan easily, these two countries that are full of hatred for the Chinese Empire and have repeatedly troubled the Chinese Empire, Lin Daxin even has the mind to completely solve them in this war, of course, the process will not be so easy. After all, Russia and Japan are both populous countries, and the price that the Chinese Empire will have to pay if it wants to destroy these two countries will be very staggering.

It's a pity that now the epidemic has suddenly broken out in the Chinese Empire, and it is a very serious epidemic, so that the Chinese Empire can no longer concentrate on coping with the next war, and the best way now is to push the boat along the river and agree to the peace of Russia and Japan. All the attention of the Chinese Empire should be focused on the outbreak of the epidemic in Yalujiang Province, and not let this epidemic, which has a very high mortality rate, spread throughout the territory of the Chinese Empire.

Wang Yan said with a wry smile: "The outbreak of the epidemic in Yalujiang Province is indeed not at the right time, but we must still block the news of the outbreak in Yalujiang Province." At the negotiating table, we can still ruthlessly cut off a piece of fat from both Russia and Japan. ”

Lin Daxin nodded and said, "For Russia." East of the Ural Mountains, including the Ural Mountains. All belong to our Chinese Empire, and I believe that Russia is afraid of the strength of our Chinese Imperial Army. I would have agreed, but for Japan, it is basically impossible to get Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu from Japan, so try to include other small islands other than the three major islands of Japan into the pocket of our Chinese Empire. ”

The news of the outbreak of the epidemic in the Chinese Empire, because the Secrecy Bureau and the Royal Army units cooperated very well, so that the outside world did not know that such a big thing had happened in the Chinese Empire, and Russia and Japan, who were eager to beg for peace, formally proposed to the Chinese Empire after the negotiators of the two countries arrived in Beijing, hoping to end the war and start armistice negotiations with the Chinese Empire.

This time, the Chinese Empire readily agreed to the request of Russia and Japan for negotiations, and sent two negotiation delegations composed of more than a dozen people each to negotiate with the representatives of Russia and Japan respectively to discuss the matter of ending the war once and for all.

This made the Russians and the Japanese breathe a sigh of relief, you must know that Russia, Japan and the Chinese Empire have deep contradictions, and this contradiction is basically irreconcilable, now because Britain, France, the United States and the four countries of the Allies, have withdrawn from this war against the Chinese Empire, the Chinese Empire has occupied an absolute advantage in this war, if the Chinese Empire wants to continue to fight with Russia and Japan, then for Russia and Japan, it will be a desperate nightmare.

Immediately, the Russian negotiators and the Japanese negotiators were arguing in front of the negotiators of the Chinese Empire, hoping to make their own countries pay less price, but in the end, the Chinese Empire occupied an absolute advantage, and the land reparations could not be avoided, but fortunately, to the Russian negotiators and the Japanese negotiators were reassured, the appetite of the Chinese Empire was not large, and it did not mean to disintegrate Russia and Japan, so the Russian negotiators and Japanese negotiators tried their best to fight for it. Finally, a preliminary armistice was reached with the Chinese Empire.

The armistice agreement between the Chinese Empire and Russia stipulates that, firstly, Russia needs to make a formal public apology to the Chinese Empire for initiating this war, secondly, Russia cedes the land east of the Ural Mountains and west of the Ob River, including the Ural Mountains, to the Chinese Empire as war compensation, in addition, Novaya Zemlya, Vaigach Island, the Franz Josef Land Archipelago, and all the original Russian islands east of these islands are all ceded to the Chinese Empire, and finally Russia also needs to compensate the Chinese Empire 80 million pounds, which will be paid off in 10 years. Fortunately, Russia does not need to pay interest on installments.

The armistice agreement between the Chinese Empire and Japan stipulated that, first, Japan was required to make a formal public apology to the Chinese Empire for initiating the war, second, Japan was required to cede Tsushima, Goto Islands, Oki Islands, Tokara Islands, and Osumi Islands to the Chinese Empire, and third, Japan was required to pay the Chinese Empire a war indemnity of 80 million pounds, which was also repaid over 10 years, and also did not need to pay interest.

Subsequently, the negotiators of Russia and Japan sent the results of the negotiations back to the two countries by telegram, waiting for domestic reply, if the country agrees to the agreed armistice agreement, then the negotiators can directly sign it, and let the signatory countries withdraw from the war.

If you don't agree, then it's troublesome, the negotiators of the Chinese Empire have made it clear that this is the bottom line of the Chinese Empire, there is no room for change, if Russia or Japan does not agree, it is completely possible to continue to compete on the battlefield, but which country can't hold it in the future, if you want to negotiate again, the conditions for the armistice will definitely not be just these.

Russia's armistice agreement is equivalent to cutting off more than 2 million square kilometers of Russian land at once, although the Ural Mountains and the area east of the Ural Mountains have long fallen into the hands of the Chinese Empire, but those islands are still under the control of Russia, Russian Tsar Nicholas II heard that the Chinese Empire wanted so much land in Russia, and immediately scolded, and all the ugly words were placed on the Chinese Empire and the Chinese Emperor Lin Daxin, but scolded Nicholas II, who had a dry mouth, It was still rational to order the Russian negotiators to immediately sign an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire in accordance with the agreed terms, after all, the Russian lands that the Chinese Empire wanted, if compared with the current situation of the war, would not be regarded as a lion's mouth.

And the 80 million pounds that Russia needs to compensate the Chinese Empire will still pay if it is divided into 10 years, which is actually much better than the conditions proposed by the Chinese Empire as envisaged by Tsar Nicholas II.

Although the Chinese Empire did not want the territory of Japan's three major islands, but Japan ceded these archipelagos, Japan except for the three major islands, there are not many other small islands, plus 10 years of compensation of 80 million pounds, Japan wants to end the war, the price it needs to pay is not small.

However, the Chinese Empire is also not a lion's mouth, after the Japanese Prime Minister Saionji Gongwang presented the requirements of the Chinese Empire to the Meiji Emperor, the Meiji Emperor also knew the current affairs and ordered the Japanese negotiators to immediately sign an armistice agreement with the Chinese Empire, without mentioning that Japan's territory could not be lost a little, what war reparations must not exceed 5 million yen, and if the agreed price can be paid, the war can be ended, and Japan should be secretly happy.
