Chapter 235: Bullshit Peace Covenant
"What kind of person is this Li Hongzhang, Dashuai, presumably Dashuai has already known it in his heart, why should Dashuai be so angry!" Yang Jichang couldn't help but comfort from the side, Yang Jichang had read this treaty before, although he was also very dissatisfied with the content of the treaty, but he also felt helpless.
"Humph! Can Lao Tzu not be angry? After fighting for so long and dying so many people, and finally changing such a peace treaty, wouldn't so many brothers die in vain! Ren Chao was still angry and shouted loudly.
"The marshal is angry, in fact, we have not gained nothing, at least we have recovered the Ryukyus, and the "Tianjin Conference Article" and the "Jemulpo Treaty" have also been abolished, so that Japan will not want to get involved in Korea again in the future!"
"Is that enough? Far from enough! Ren Chao roared loudly, venting his dissatisfaction in his heart.
According to the paper agreement signed between Li Hongzhang and the Japanese, first of all, Japan recognized Korea as a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, and the "Articles of the Tianjin Conference" and the "Jemulpo Treaty" signed by Japan and the Qing government, as well as all the unequal treaties that the Korean government was forced to sign, were nullified. The second major element is that the Ryukyu Kingdom has been recognized as a subject state of the Qing Dynasty since ancient times, and the Japanese government promised to repatriate the Ryukyu royal family that had been held by it and allow the Ryukyu Kingdom to be restored. The third main content is that after the signing of the treaty, the two sides will immediately cease fighting, and the Japanese side will withdraw its troops from Korea and the Qing troops from the Japanese Osumi Islands at the same time. That's the main thing about the contract, everything else is inconsequential.
Regarding the issue of war reparations that Ren Chao has always wanted, this contract is not a word on it. As mentioned above, since the war was provoked by the Japanese side, the Japanese side should take full responsibility for this, and the Japanese side apologized to the Qing side. Originally, the Japanese side was supposed to pay all the losses of the Qing side, but considering the current situation in Japan, it was really unable to compensate for the war reparations. Waiver!
It's a high-sounding thing, and it's over with an apology! The most infuriating thing is Li Hongzhang and the Qing government, people give you face and apologize, and you don't have to pay for the war reparations! It's really generous enough, and put on a posture that my Heavenly Empire doesn't like your Fanbang barbarians, just for the sake of this worthless face, he actually gave up all the war reparations, this Li Hongzhang is fucking brain-dead, but the entire court is brain-dead!
"The Ryukyus were originally our vassals. It's the same with North Korea! Those bullshit treaties should not have been signed in the first place, they should have been nullified a long time ago! Tell me, what good has such a peace treaty done us? What do we get other than giving us a face, an apology? Face? How much the fuck is face worth? Do you know? If Japan is victorious, they will definitely not let go of the Qing Dynasty lightly! Now we've won, and we've got a contract like this. Do you say it's worth it or not. Ren Chaoyue thought about it and became more angry, holding the contract in his hand and pointing at Yang Jichang's nose and shouting loudly.
If Ren Chao is allowed to negotiate, not only will the war reparations not be exempted, but Ren Chao will also bite off a piece of meat from the Japanese. Needless to say, Ryukyu. The Osumi Islands would also have to be ceded to the Qing Dynasty, and if possible, Ren Chao would even force Japan to cede Hokkaido to the Qing Dynasty. Not only that, Ren Chao also has to win the right to garrison troops in Japan, and Ren Chao wants to make the little devil pay compensation and have no money to raise soldiers. Let them not turn over for eternity. Let those soldiers stationed in Japan spoil those Japanese girls every day, and let those Japanese devils obediently pick up their tails and be dogs when they see the Chinese people.
Yang Jichang was speechless by Ren Chao, so he could only stand there honestly, letting Ren Chao vent his dissatisfaction loudly there.
"Been talking for so long. In the end, this is such a result, what has Li Hongzhang been doing for most of the month? This old guy can't have accepted bribes from the Japanese! Ren Chao said loudly, and now Ren Chao is very suspicious of this problem. Otherwise, how could it be possible to talk about such an outcome? Moreover, it is said that Li Hongzhang also had such a criminal record, and it has been recorded in history that he once accepted the benefits of the Russian old Maozi, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not accept the benefits of the Japanese this time.
In fact, to be able to talk about such a result, Li Hongzhang also took a lot of effort. Otherwise, we wouldn't have talked about it for so long. At the beginning, the little devil proposed that both sides withdraw their troops and restore the pre-war situation. Such an arrogant condition was naturally rejected by Li Hongzhang. After a fierce debate, Japan made concessions step by step, not only giving up its privileges in Korea, but also vomiting out the Ryukyu that had been eaten in its stomach, but in terms of war reparations, Ito Hirobumi never let go, crying there vigorously, saying that Japan has no money, and it really can't afford to pay! The war has been fought for so long, and Li Hongzhang has long wanted to end the war as soon as possible, so in the end, Li Hongzhang can only make concessions in this regard, so there is the current peace treaty.
"No, it can't be so cheap, little devil." Ren Chao was really uncomfortable holding a bad breath in his heart, "Emperor Guangxu has not used the seal, and this paper peace treaty has not taken effect." I want to write to Guangxu, refuse this bullshit peace agreement, and at least let the little devil lose some money! Even if it's a little less! That's right, I'm going to write a recital! ”
Ren Chao sat back in his chair as he spoke, and really began to write the folds. This memo was soon sent to Beijing in the form of a telegram, but it was like a stone in the sea, and there was no more news.
It wasn't until a few days later that news came from Beijing that Emperor Guangxu had ratified Li Hongzhang's treaty. After Ren Chao got the news, he angrily dropped a few teacups, other things were too expensive and reluctant to fall!
"The marshal is angry, in fact, the emperor is not too satisfied with this peace treaty. However, he could not resist the support of many ministers in the court. Besides, the most important thing is that the Queen Mother Lafayette doesn't want to fight down, thinking that it will end here, you also know that the current Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty speaks more than the emperor in charge of affairs, and the emperor also has to listen to the Queen Mother, and the emperor has no choice but to approve this peace treaty in the end. Yang Jichang reported all the gossip he knew to Ren Chao.
Ren Chao was even more angry when he heard this, and all his anger turned to Cixi's body, "This loser is a bastard, don't fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, if it falls into the hands of Lao Tzu one day, Lao Tzu will not take her, no, Lao Tzu will definitely send someone to rape her first and then kill her, and then rape and then kill, and then break the corpse into thousands of pieces, so as to solve the evil breath in Lao Tzu's heart." ”
Hearing Ren Chao's scolding, Yang Jichang couldn't help but fight a cold war, just that Cixi Lafayette is sixty years old, even if you let people go, who wants to! (To be continued......)
