Chapter 106: Loyal and Brave Uncle
Cixi is intriguing with a group of rebellious ministers and thieves here, and there are friends in the mountain mountains over there, but they can't wait, Vladivostok has now thawed, and the Russian army in the Far East is getting up from hibernation.
These guys are really notorious, Yang Feng is compared to them, that is the difference between a little thief and a Jiangyang thief, as for the Germans, they are a good student, with the manic general of the mountain county who is in the twilight of the day, and he resolutely issued the most reckless ultimatum to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of negotiating with him, and if he did not withdraw from Japan within three days, he would immediately blow up the grave.
After bargaining, the conditions of Youpeng in Shan County have been reduced to 180 million taels, and the other Japanese withdrew their troops from China, confirming that North Korea is needless to say, in his own words, this person in Shan County also reads the book of sages, not a barbarian who is similar to a beast, and he is also afraid of it.
Unexpectedly, today, this guy who he thought could feel a sense of righteousness suddenly changed his face and told him in a strong tone that he would blow up the grave three days after withdrawing his troops from Japan, and that from today onwards, 5,000 people in the city would be executed every day. Youpeng in Shanxian is very shrewd, he knows that even if he kills 10,000 Han people every day, the Manchurian princes in Beijing will not frown, but the effect of killing Manchus is much better. Moreover, the vast majority of the Manchus in Fengtian City have relatives in Beijing, so the effect will be better, and it will avoid being resisted by the common people in the city.
In the end, the main body of the city is still the Han people, in fact, the main body of these cities in the northeast are Han people, and they are basically at the bottom, of course, they are also the most aggressive, as long as they don't make trouble with the flag people who have been abolished, that is, they will be pulled to the city wall and stabbed to death, and they will not have any other reaction except kneeling on the ground and begging. In fact, now Youpeng in Shan County lives in a noble house, sleeping with his wife and daughter, and at the same time enjoying his smiling face. This is a nation that has been thoroughly decayed.
"Thou hast read poetry and books, and thou hast learned the writings of sages, and thou hast not been afraid of the wrath of man and god for such a cruel act?" Resolute and trembling pointed at Shan Shan County Youpeng and scolded angrily, but unfortunately it was the hard butt of the Japanese soldier who answered him, Shan Shan Youpeng glanced at this waiter of the Ministry of Rites who was looking for teeth all over the place with contempt, he really didn't understand whether this Qing official was really stupid or fake stupid? Is there still a contradiction between my love of writing poetry and my love of killing? Can't you kill people if you read too much?
At this point, he should learn from that Admiral Yang, even when he killed people in Japan and burned the city, they did not forget to write so many intoxicating and beautiful poems, and Shan County Youpeng couldn't help but be fascinated by this demon-like enemy while holding Yang Feng's deeds.
Just when there were friends in Shanxian County who issued the most harsh ultimatum to Gangyi. Yang Dawenhao also began negotiations again, and Mutsu Somitsu put forward the final conditions that Japan could accept this time, a compensation of 20 million pounds, and the money would be paid within a year, and the tariff mortgage would not be needed, if you couldn't pay the money within a year, you would come and fight us again.
Second, it is possible to lease Kagoshima to Germany, but it is absolutely not possible to lease Kyushu Island, and as for the Russians, they can cede to Russia the North Kuril Islands that were exchanged from Russia for the southern part of Sakhalin Island in the 1875 "Birch and North Kuril Islands Replacement Treaty", but as for the lease of Hokkaido and the cession of Sapporo, this is absolutely impossible.
As for the compensation to the Ryukyus. Japan could pay an additional 1,000,000 pounds in reparations, but it was absolutely impossible to cede the islands south of Tanegashima, and if the coalition forces did not agree to such conditions, then the Japanese people would have to continue to fight.
"If you can't do it for a year, you can fight for two years. If you can't do it for two years, you will fight for three years, or even ten or twenty years, and even if you forcibly occupy the land of Japan, the 40 million Yamato warriors will not give in. They will fight bloody battles against the invaders in their homeland all the time, until they drive the invaders out of their homes or make their own homeland a grave for themselves and the invaders. Mutsu said with a holy face.
Speaking of which, Waldze's condition had already moved Waldze, and during this time the Japanese army launched many attacks of different scales in a row. Experiments were carried out on various offensive methods, night raids, digging tunnels, crowd charges, in short, with more than 10,000 corpses of Japanese soldiers, fully testing the reliable power of trench warfare, but despite this, the madness of the Japanese army also frightened Waldze.
Especially when the Japanese death squad strapped explosives to their own defense line, this veteran who had experienced the Franco-Prussian War couldn't help but have a little admiration, it is obvious that such a nation is not easy to deal with, and the conditions offered by the Japanese have actually met the expectations of the Kaiser, he originally wanted Kagoshima, as for the compensation of 20 million pounds is definitely not a lot, considering the reality that Japan's economy has regressed for at least ten years after this war, even he feels that 20 million pounds is very heavy, and until now, The Coalition had captured more than £10 million in Japan.
He is now mainly worried that Yang Feng will not agree, after all, the Japanese did not agree to his request, but to his surprise, Yang Feng looked indifferent, but the Russians resolutely did not agree, biting Sapporo to death, what is the matter with fooling us with so many desert islands, and it is not that the entire Kuril Islands only have the North Kuriles, so they really take us as a meal?
Because the Russians resolutely disagreed, the result of this negotiation ended in vain, which was expected by Yang Feng, if Japan had just started the war and came up with such conditions, Nikolai might have agreed, but now that Vladivostok has been thawed, the Russian army has the ability to land directly in Hokkaido, then it would be a fool to agree to this condition.
As for whether he really cares, even if Germany and Russia both ceased fighting and withdrawing troops, he can continue to beat Japan as a Chinese, even if they all have a truce with the Japanese, if you want to fight, you can also use the signboard of the Ryukyu people, anyway, in the Ryukyu themselves, they are the emperor, they also have every reason to fight all the way to Tanegashima, you imprisoned our king and crown prince for more than ten years and sent it away with a million pounds? The dignity of the Ryukyu royal family is also too worthless.
Turning back, he was going to ask the king of the Ryukyus to give him a title such as the protector of the country, and then de jure to take over the foreign relations of the Ryukyus.
As soon as Mutsu Zong Guangguang left, Cixi's other withdrawal order came, but this time it was not only sent to Song Qing and others through Li Hongzhang, in fact, Cixi no longer had any hope for Li Hongzhang, and the old thing sent all the warships of the Beiyang Naval Division out of the city, under the pretext of guarding against abnormal behavior of the British, drifting outside every day, and then under the pretext that there were not enough merchant ships to withdraw the troops, so it would take some time.
Therefore, Cixi simply sent it directly to Yang Feng through the British embassy in Japan, and it seems that in this telegram, in order to appease him, he did not mention any more dismissal issues, but praised him, added him the title of General Jianwei, and then explained the situation in a barabala, and ordered him to withdraw his troops from Japan as quickly as possible with the overall situation of the imperial court.
"What kind of official is this General Jianwei?" Yang Feng asked Song Qing curiously, but he didn't expect that a few old things would laugh at him when he said this, especially Jiang Zikang smiled extremely embarrassed.
"Lord Yang, the last general is General Jianwei, this is a martial arts rank of Zhengyipin, there is no use, the last general is the Jianwei General of Zhengyipin, from the registered commander of the first product, and the actual commander of the fourth product, this is a fool of our generals." Jiang Zikang said, this guy is really bad, probably because he is not good at drilling camps, and it is said that when he quelled the rebellion in Rehe, others hated to kill the common people and take the lead in the merit, but he released all the more than 3,000 rebels who were captured alive, this kind of outlier is indeed difficult to mix in the officialdom, so he is still a capital in his sixties, and Li Hongzhang still pities him at an age, which makes Yang Feng embarrassed by a commander in his early thirties.
"!" Boss Yang deeply despised Cixi, and then put on an official authority and said solemnly: "The holy decree has arrived, and the generals kneel to receive the holy decree!" ”
Song Qing and the others were stunned for a moment, but fortunately, this guy often changes roles inexplicably every day, and it can be said that he is not used to seeing it, so he quickly knelt down one by one, and then saw Yang Feng take out a scroll of holy decrees from his sleeves, the real holy decrees, they have all seen this thing, and when they looked at the packaging, they knew that the Tao was genuine, and the nature of sending it by telegram was completely different.
"Carried by heaven, the emperor said." Yang Feng opened the holy decree like those eunuchs on TV, and read in a long voice: "Yang Feng, the land governor of Taiwan, Song Qing, the land governor of Sichuan, Xu Bangdao, the chief soldier of Zhengding Town, and the fourth general Jiang Zikang, the fourth general of the named commander, since the Japanese rebellion, have been bloody and brave to kill the enemy, with outstanding meritorious achievements, and the Japanese people are discouraged.
Wang'er waited for me to live up to my grace and make persistent efforts.
Another Japanese general jumped into Shengjing, disturbed the mausoleum of Taizu Taizong, I was very angry, you can choose the imperial tomb of the Japanese state to rely on, if there is rudeness in Shanxi, you can also bomb its imperial tomb to show the prestige of heaven.
Chin this! Thanksgiving! ”
After the performance, Boss Yang handed the holy decree to Song Qing with satisfaction, the three guys looked grateful, this job can be said to be fame and fortune, not only one by one, but also was promoted by the country to the level of Yue Wumu, and even now even the title has been earned, although the title is not worth much now, it is nothing more than dozens of taels of silver a month, to be honest, their current net worth, visiting an entertainment venue to reward is more than this, but this level is different.
