When Emperor Meiji received Japanese Prime Minister Saionji Kobo and Japanese War Minister Katsura Taro at his residence in Utsunomiya Castle, Japan's new Foreign Minister Yoshimoto Yubayashi hurried here.

As soon as Yoshimoto Yubayashi saw the three Meiji Emperors, he said urgently: "We, the Japanese ambassador to London, England, have sent an urgent telegram to our homeland, and the British are ready to come forward to mediate the war between us and Lin Daxin, so that the war between the Eight-Nation Alliance and Lin Daxin will end completely." ”

After listening to Emperor Meiji, Saionji Gongwang and Katsura Taro, they couldn't help but show a hint of hope in their eyes, but the current Britain is different from the previous Britain, the British have just signed an armistice agreement with Lin Daxin, and it is a land cession and reparation, and the deterrent effect on Lin Daxin has been reduced to a minimum, and it can also play a role as a matchmaker between Japan and Lin Daxin.

Emperor Meiji hesitated for a moment, and said helplessly: "Gentlemen, even if the British come forward to mediate, can Lin Daxin let go of our Great Japanese Empire?" ”

Prime Minister Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said with some excitement: "Your Majesty the Emperor, the losses of the Dingbei Army under Lin Daxin's command on Kyushu Island by our desperate resistance are not small, Lin Daxin may really get off the donkey down the slope and give up the plan to occupy our Japanese mainland." I immediately contacted Yoshimoto-kun and the British to try to end the war. ”

Emperor Meiji thought about it and felt that it was not impossible, and his face couldn't help but show joy and said: "It would be nice if we could really end this war, if we continue to fight like this, our efforts for the entire Japanese people for decades will be ruined, and there will be nothing left." However, the bottom line of our Great Japanese Empire is to keep the three big islands of Honshu Island, Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island, and as for Hokkaido Island, it can be given to Lin Daxin. Even the amount of compensation is acceptable as long as it is not excessive. Prime Minister, Yoshimoto-kun, you have to handle this matter as a matter of first priority. ”

On the morning of August 22, 1902. Representatives of the British office in Shenyang came to the Governor's Palace and expressed their desire to mediate the final war between Lin Daxin and Japan.

The reason why it is called the last war is because the current war between the Northeast Navy and the Dingbei Army to attack the Japanese mainland is a continuation of the Eight-Nation Alliance and the Lin Daxin War.

However, Lin Daxin is not in the Governor's Mansion at the moment, he has traveled to the future time and space to live a two-person world with Song Keer, and waited until the evening of the future time and space, that is, the afternoon of the Qing Dynasty time and space, Lin Daxin traveled back again, only to learn that the British wanted to mediate in this war between the Japanese and themselves.

Lin Daxin was ready to gather the military and political leaders in Shenyang City. After all, there are still more than 11 million square kilometers of newly acquired land, which needs to be digested and absorbed, this is not a small project, just to resettle on the newly occupied land, it is enough to work hard for a long time. The amount of material and money invested will be astronomical.

However, Lin Daxin had not yet discussed with the military and political leaders in Shenyang City, and his wife He Yue hurriedly found Lin Daxin, "Husband, you can't let go of the Japanese with wolf ambitions!" ”

He Yue is a person from the future time and space. And living in a military family, the hatred for the Japanese, that's really big. Hearing that the British jumped out to mediate, they immediately came to Lin Daxin. It is hoped that the current landing on the Japanese mainland will not be interrupted and that it will continue to be persistent. Destroy the bastard Little Japan.

Lin Daxin smiled bitterly, hugged He Yue into his arms and said: "I also want to destroy Japan in my heart, but we don't have weapons of mass destruction, such a battle after battle, the loss is really not small, although it can't shake our fundamentals, but let so many young officers and soldiers die in Japan itself, I really can't bear it, I'm ready to let Japan go, anyway, Japan is by our side, it is Sun Wukong, and it can't escape the palm of my Buddha." ”

When He Yue heard this, she was a little speechless for Lin Daxin's woman's benevolence, okay, you are a general who commands millions of troops, how can there be immortals in war, He Yue frowned and said: "The Japanese buildings are all wooden structures, we can use incendiary bombs to bomb Japanese cities, right?" ”

Lin Daxin said: "The incendiary bombs developed by our arsenal have been used by the Air Force for bombing, but the results achieved are not ideal, it seems that the arsenal has to be transformed into incendiary bombs, and our ordinary bombs have actually played the role of our current incendiary bombs when bombing Japanese cities, and we still have to develop the powerful incendiary bombs in the future time and space." ”

He Yue wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lin Daxin patting her buttocks, "Good wife, you don't have to worry about Japanese affairs, go back to the room and wait for me first, and we'll do some favorite sports in a while." ”

He Yue sighed secretly in her heart, although Lin Daxin doted on her, but she was no longer allowed to participate in the military and government affairs, and Lin Daxin's other 3 wives were the same, except for Lin Daxin's some business affairs, which were still in their charge, involving the army, government affairs and other things, his 4 wives were no longer allowed to participate, and a typical harem could not interfere in politics.

Lin Daxin in his office in the Governor's Palace, convened some high-level military and political officials in Shenyang, saying that the British were ready to mediate the war with the Japanese, Lin Daxin asked these high-level military and political leaders' opinions, and finally most of them agreed to take the opportunity to end the war with the Japanese, after all, the Japanese had completed the mobilization of the whole people, and the Dingbei Army had to pay a very big price to defeat the remaining three large islands in Japan, but what they got was a ruin, and it was really worth the loss.

Lin Daxin himself also felt that this landing operation against Japan, although only a small part of Hokkaido Island and Kyushu Island was occupied, but it had brought very big losses to Japan, don't forget that the Northeast Navy had bombed almost all of Japan's coastal cities into ruins, and the Japanese wanted to slow down, not ten or eight years was enough, so it could not bring any trouble to themselves in a short period of time, so Lin Daxin finally ordered the follow-up troops of the Dingbei Army to stop transporting to Kyushu Island, Let the Japanese send representatives to the city of Shenyang. Conduct armistice negotiations.

The Japanese received news from the British that Lin Daxin was willing to reopen armistice negotiations with Japan. Immediately, the entire Japanese top brass was ecstatic, and Emperor Meiji immediately sent Japanese Prime Minister Saionji Gongwang to Shenyang in person. Conduct this negotiation that is a matter of life and death for Japan.

On August 26, 1902, Japanese Prime Minister Saionji Gongwang rushed to Shenyang City and began to negotiate with the negotiators led by Wang Yan, under the mediation of the British, and conducted a rather difficult negotiation.

Finally, three days later, on August 29, the two sides of the negotiations finally reached a consensus, and the main content was actually two, one of which was that Japan ceded Hokkaido Island to Lin Daxin. The second is that Japan will pay Lin Daxin a war reparation of 50 million pounds, which will be paid in 20 years, plus high interest, Japan will finally pay Lin Daxin a huge indemnity of 110 million pounds.

Hokkaido Island was pocketed by Lin Daxin, and even the Japanese accepted their fate, but the huge war reparations made the Japanese really unacceptable, but the British hinted to the Japanese, which was already Lin Daxin's negotiator in the face of the British, and reduced the amount of war reparations by a large amount. and territorial claims, you must know that Wang Yan first proposed that Japan should also cede Kyushu Island, and the amount of war reparations is 200 million pounds, and there are restrictions on Japan's navy and army.

The British hinted at the Japanese. You better hurry up and sign this armistice agreement, the price that Japan has to pay. It is definitely much smaller than the Japanese smashing the Northern Army on their homeland. And the British could, after the war, make some loans to Japan. Alleviate the pressure on Japan's reparations.

So after Japanese Prime Minister Saionji Gongwang asked Emperor Meiji, he signed the armistice agreement, and although Lin Daxin was not very satisfied with the armistice agreement, he considered many factors and asked Wang Yan to sign his name on the armistice agreement.

So far, because of the uprising in Fujian Province, the Qing Dynasty, Lin Daxin and the Eight-Nation Alliance, which eventually led to this epic war, finally came to an end, Lin Daxin gained huge benefits in this war, but also became a thorn in the side of some powerful countries in the world, laying the groundwork for a series of wars that broke out later.

The island of Hokkaido, which was obtained from Japan, was named Kitajima Province by Lin Daxin, becoming the 28th province under Lin Daxin's command.

After the armistice agreement was signed, the troops of the Dingbei Army on Kyushu Island began to retreat to the vicinity of the Sasebo Naval Base, preparing to board the ship and leave the Japanese mainland, Deng Zichao, the commander of the Third Field Army, sighed and said to Zhang Limin, the commander of the Second Field Army: "I don't know what the principal thinks, as long as we make up our minds this time, we will definitely be able to destroy Little Japan, and we will let Little Japan go." ”

Zhang Limin said with a wry smile: "You don't know the temper of the principal, although we won two major wars on Kyushu Island, and eliminated no less than 1.5 million Japanese, but we also suffered more than 40,000 casualties. ”

Deng Zichao sighed again and said: "If the Japanese are left behind now, maybe the price we will pay will be even greater in the future, Lao Zhang, you have also seen the terrible ruthlessness of the Japanese, to be honest, I am a little scared." ”

Zhang Limin patted Deng Zichao's shoulder and said: "It's not a big deal, we have cleaned up the Japanese several times, if the Japanese are not honest in the future, it's a big deal for us to do it again, are we still afraid of Little Japan in Dingbei?" ”

Deng Zichao nodded and said, "Yes, but next time I say anything, I have to persuade the principal to completely destroy the country of Japan." ”

In the Xinuan Pavilion of the Forbidden City, Prince Gong Yixin said to the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu: "Lafayette, Emperor, Lin Daxin has signed an armistice agreement with Japan, and this war with the Eight-Nation Alliance is completely over. ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi said: "A while ago, didn't you say that Lin Daxin was determined to destroy Japan this time? The mourning family is quite happy, if it weren't for the fact that Japan was stirring up the wind and rain on the side, how could Lin Daxin come out and become a big trouble for our Qing Dynasty, why did Lin Daxin change his mind now? ”

Emperor Guangxu also asked curiously: "Didn't the newspapers in Shenyang say a few days ago that the Dingbei Army wiped out the Japanese army of 1.5 million on Kyushu Island, I thought that Japan was in a catastrophe this time, why did Lin Daxin be merciful?" ”

Prince Gong Yixin explained to the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu: "Lafayette, Emperor, I heard that Lin Daxin lost a lot of losses because of the Dingbei Army's elimination of Japan's 1.5 million army, plus the Japanese are all soldiers, Lin Daxin was unwilling to let the Dingbei Army have big losses, so under the mediation of the British, he signed an armistice agreement with Japan, robbed Japan's Kyushu Island, and asked Japan to compensate 50 million pounds. ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head and said: "This Lin Daxin is really not decisive enough, what are some people afraid of, it is completely worth it to eliminate a henchman." ”

Emperor Guangxu sighed and said: "50 million pounds, this is enough for the Japanese." ”

Prince Gong Yixin continued: "50 million pounds, Japan will pay off in 20 years, plus high interest, and finally Japan has to pay Lin Daxin 110 million pounds in compensation, plus Japan's coastal cities have become a ruin, Japan wants to recover, I don't know how long it will take." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi said helplessly: "Lin Daxin's power has become bigger and bigger after this war with the Eight-Nation Alliance, how do you say our court should deal with that Lin Daxin in the future?" ”

Emperor Guangxu smiled bitterly and said: "Although that Lin Daxin still nominally belongs to our Qing Dynasty, but in fact, the forces under his command have replaced Britain and become the world's hegemon. ”

Prince Gong Yixin's face was gloomy and did not squeak, Lin Daxin is now such a huge force, it is easy to say that it is easy to destroy the imperial court, that is, Lin Daxin does not want to be the emperor, but don't the generals under his command also want to be the founding heroes?

The Empress Dowager Cixi hesitated for a moment and said: "In order to appease Lin Daxin, the mourning family can crown Lin Daxin as king." ”

"Crowned king?" Emperor Guangxu and Prince Gong Yixin couldn't help but exclaim, you must know that since the Qing Dynasty abolished the three feudatories during the Kangxi period, no Han people have been crowned kings.

However, Emperor Guangxu and Prince Gong Yixin thought about it for a moment and nodded, the current situation, if they can only rely on the king, they can satisfy the appetite of Lin Daxin and the generals under his command, and the court will burn high incense. (To be continued......)
