Chapter 265: If You Fight, You Fight!

"Please ask the emperor to declare war on Tsarist Russia, as long as the emperor decrees, the ministers will personally raise troops to the north, go out to meet the enemy, and annihilate all the Tsarist Russian troops that invaded the territory of our Qing Dynasty in one fell swoop, and wipe out those rebellious ministers and thieves who collude with foreign countries." Ren Chao didn't seem to realize the problem that Emperor Guangxu was still struggling with in his heart, and then pleaded loudly.

Ren Chao's words seemed to remind Emperor Guangxu that Emperor Guangxu thought that whoever won this battle before seemed to have no benefit to him, so he was inevitably entangled in his heart. But on the flip side, whoever wins this battle seems to be good for themselves. If the Tiger Ben army is defeated, there is no doubt that the Northeast will be preserved, which is naturally a good thing for the Qing Dynasty. If the Tiger Ben Army is defeated, although the Northeast will inevitably fall into the hands of Tsarist Russia, Ren Chao's henchman can be regarded as eradicated. Thinking about it this way, it seems that whoever wins and loses in this battle is good for themselves, and it is better to fight both sides and lose both. Emperor Guangxu couldn't help but have an excited glint in his eyes, and immediately nodded and said, "The Tsarist Russians have the courage to raise troops, invade our borders, and kill our people, which is unbearable, and ordered the South Study to be responsible for drafting the edict and declaring war on Tsarist Russia." He ordered Ren Chao to be the general of the conquest, control the armies inside and outside the pass, and quickly advance and suppress them, so as to save the people outside the pass. ”

"The ministers and other commanders, the emperor is wise and powerful, and he will be able to bless our army to open the banner and break the Tsarist Russia." Ren Chao hurriedly replied loudly.

"The emperor is wise, long live, long live, long live!" The cabinet ministers present also echoed the words.

Emperor Guangxu had agreed to declare war, and Ren Chao's goal was achieved, because there were still many things to deal with, and Ren Chao didn't want to delay here, so he hurriedly got up and retired. Looking at the back of Ren Chao's departure, Emperor Guangxu prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the Tiger Army and Tsarist Russia would fight to defeat both sides, and it would be best to wait until the Tiger Ben Army beat the old Maozi of Tsarist Russia almost to death, and then the old Maozi of Tsarist Russia would directly kill Ren Chao, a rebellious minister and thief. Just like Hou Huo, the champion of the year, went to illness. Although he broke the Huns and sealed the wolf, he finally took his life.

Ren Chao was naturally in no mood to pay attention to what the emperor Lao Er thought in his heart, and after leaving the palace, Ren Chao specially summoned the Tsarist Russian minister in Beijing.

"Lord Ren, if you can promise to cede Heilongjiang and Jilin to the Great Russian Empire and lease Ludagang to us, we can still consider withdrawing troops from the Northeast, and at the same time, we can also help Lord Hou eliminate all the rebels in the Northeast." As soon as Gers saw Ren Chao's face, he said very arrogantly.

"It's all this time, still daydreaming here!" Ren Chao snorted expressionlessly. "Today I have called you here to tell Your Excellency something, and now on behalf of the Qing Dynasty, I formally inform Your Excellency that in view of the aggression of your army in the northeast region of our country, our Qing Empire will never tolerate it, and I, the Emperor of the Qing Empire, have officially issued an edict declaring war on your country. I now formally issue an ultimatum to your army, ordering you to withdraw unconditionally from our territory within 48 hours. Otherwise, our army will immediately send troops northward and annihilate all foreign troops that have invaded our territory. I, Huaxia, will never be afraid of any enemy, let alone bow to any enemy. Fight! After Ren Chao finished speaking, he glared at Gers, who had not yet woken up from the shock, and then walked away.

It wasn't until Ren Chao had already left that Gers reacted. Ren Chao's words shocked Gers's heart too much. Once upon a time, the Qing Dynasty, which was once subservient in front of Tsarist Russia, dared to declare war on Tsarist Russia! Is this simply a joke? Although he knows that today is not April Fool's Day, Gers still thinks that this is his own year. and even the funniest joke I've heard in most of my life. But while Gers dismissed this as a joke, the Qing Dynasty's declaration of war on Tsarist Russia was real. Soon after Ren Chao left, an official of the Qing Ministry of Foreign Affairs who was present immediately read to Gers the edict of declaration of war issued by Emperor Guangxu. Although Gers's Chinese level is very average, and the things in the edict make Gers dizzy, but there is one thing that Gels still understands, that is, the Great Qing Halal declared war on Tsarist Russia, and Ren Chao did not joke with him.

The Foreign Ministry official read the edict in a frustrated tone, and then handed a copy of the edict to Gers.

Gers's face was already blue at this time, and after receiving a copy of the edict, Gers couldn't help but snort coldly, "We, the Great Russian Empire, will never tolerate your country's provocative behavior, I swear that you will pay the heaviest price for this, and you will definitely pay the price for what you have done today." ”

"Mr. Minister, given that our country has officially declared war on your country. On behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I now formally inform you that I hope that you will be able to leave the territory of the Qing Dynasty as much as possible, otherwise our Government will no longer be able to guarantee your personal safety. The Foreign Ministry official ignored Gers's cries and said coldly to Gers.

"Humph! You're going to regret your decision today! Gers said indignantly, turned and strode out. At this point, Geers was also helpless, and the Tsarist government never dreamed that the Qing Dynasty would have the courage to declare war on them. But if they really declare war, what can he do with Geers? What can he do other than say a few words about the scene? If at this time, Geers can come up with a Tsar's edict declaring war, he will naturally be able to save some face. But he didn't, because Tsarist Russia did not expect that the corrupt and cowardly Qing government would take the initiative to declare war on Tsarist Russia. In the end, Gers could only suppress his anger, left Ren Chao's mansion, and obediently went back to pack his bags and prepare to leave Beijing, of course, before packing up his things and getting out, he still did not forget to report the matter to the Tsarist government and Alekseev in the Far East.

After sending away the arrogant Russian minister Gers, Ren Chao immediately convened an emergency meeting of the main generals of the Tiger Army in Beijing, and began to dispatch troops to prepare for a large-scale increase in troops in the northeast to start a war with Tsarist Russia. At this time, the Tiger Ben Army only had tens of thousands of troops in the northeast, and it was naturally enough to deal with those rebels, but it was far from enough to deal with Tsarist Russia. Not to mention that the combat effectiveness of the Tsarist Russian army is far from being comparable to those rebels, let's just say that at this time, Tsarist Russia has a full army of more than 100,000 troops in the northeast, and Ren Chao does not dare to despise it. At the same time, Ren Chao also plans to personally lead the troops to the expedition, although Ren Chao is not the emperor now, it doesn't seem very appropriate to use this word, but Ren Chao still thinks that it is better to use this word, the reason is just that this word is more popular, anyway, the Guangxu Emperor has become his puppet, although he is not the emperor, but he is almost the same as the emperor. (To be continued......)
