Chapter 891: A world-class war has broken out

At a meeting at the Capitol in Srawton, the question of the post-war interests of all countries was discussed, and the representatives of all countries did not budge an inch. Henry? Asquith had just finished opposing Russia's appetite when the Austro-Hungarian Prime Minister Franch? Koeman stood up suddenly

Frankie? Koman said even more emotionally: "I think that the division of interests after the war should regard all the territory of the Chinese Empire as a whole, and should not be divided into the encroached upon by various countries and the original Qing Dynasty. Our Austro-Hungarian Empire will also invest all its strength in this imminent war, including the current 23 main warships of the Austro-Hungarian Navy, the regular army of more than 2.7 million in the Austro-Hungarian Army, and thousands of new fighters in the Austro-Hungarian Air Force.

Austro-Hungarian Prime Minister Franch? Koeman's words, let British Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? Asquith frowned, you must know that the 11 countries participating in this meeting, in addition to Russia, Britain is the second most land occupied by the Chinese Empire, Franky? Koman immediately spoke: "It must be guaranteed that the territories of the countries occupied by the Chinese Empire will be returned to the countries that were originally invaded, otherwise all the countries that have been invaded by the Chinese Empire will not agree." ”

At this time, German Prime Minister Hohenlohe said: "That's not necessarily, we Germany are willing to give up the land that was seized by the Chinese Empire before, and distribute all the current territory of the Chinese Empire according to the size of each country's contribution." ”

Italian Prime Minister Brandra also immediately said: "We in Italy also agree with Hohenlohe's suggestion and are willing to give up the land that Italy has previously occupied by the Chinese Empire." ”

Subsequently, the Minister of Defense of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, Enver Pasha, and the Spanish Prime Minister Carlos? Navarro also expressed solidarity with German Chancellor Hohenlohe and expressed his willingness to give up the land previously occupied by the Chinese Empire and distribute all the territory of the Chinese Empire after the war according to the size of each country's contribution.

French President Armand? Fallier frowned at Spanish Prime Minister Carlos? Navarro said: "Prime Minister Carlos, you Spain has not been invaded by the Chinese Empire, where can you Spain talk about giving up!" ”

Spanish Prime Minister Carlos? Navarro shrugged his shoulders and said: "When the Chinese Empire bought the Philippines, it was also an act of forcible seizure, and the Philippines can be counted as the inherent territory of our Spain before. ”

On June 20, 1912, the representatives of the 11 countries agreed on the formation of the League of Nations and the dispatch of troops by each country, but the distribution of the post-war interests of each country was discussed until June 23, and no general idea was discussed.

Finally, U.S. President William? Howard? Taft proposed that the issue of the distribution of interests after the war should be put aside, and that after the defeat of the Chinese Empire, the countries would discuss it at the League of Nations meeting.

As for Britain and Russia, US President William? Howard? Taft privately contacted British Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? Asquith and Russian Finance Minister and Foreign Minister Sage ? Werther, William? Howard? Taft's promise that the United States would support Britain and Russia in recovering the lands previously seized by the Chinese Empire after the war made Britain and Russia not continue to insist that the postwar benefits must be distributed now.

On June 24, 1912, the newly formed League of Nations sent a note to the Chinese Empire on the sinking of a Japanese fishing boat, hoping that the Chinese Empire would take the initiative to assume its responsibilities and accede to several reasonable demands put forward by Japan, otherwise the League of Nations, which took the maintenance of world peace as its own responsibility, would take further measures.

The note of the League of Nations received a strong response from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire, where did your League of Nations come from? We, the Chinese Empire, have not recognized you as a so-called international organization, so stay where you are cool!

At 8 o'clock in the morning of June 25, 1912, the Japanese government officially declared war on the Chinese Empire with the sinking of the fishing boat, and less than one hour later, Britain, France, Russia, Belgium, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy, Ottoman Turkey, Spain, and the United States, these 10 countries, declared war on the Chinese Empire in the name of abiding by the constitution of the League of Nations.

At 12 noon on June 25, the Chinese Empire officially declared war on the 11 member states of the League of Nations, and thus the war that engulfed almost the entire world broke out.

In an army camp in Heilongjiang Province of the Chinese Empire, a captain of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire hurriedly walked into the regiment commander's office, but when he walked in, he found that almost all the officers above the regiment company level were crowded into the regiment commander's office.

"Regiment commander, I request to be transferred to the Guards or the Field Army, no matter if it is demoted, as long as it can let me go to the front line, even if I am a soldier!"

"Regiment commander, now that the war has broken out, our soldiers should fight on the front line, and our Heilongjiang garrison has no chance to go to the battlefield at all, so I ask to transfer me to the front line!"

"Regiment commander, my father died in the battle with the Russian army, and this time I ask my superiors to transfer me to some troops in the Ural Mountains, so that I can avenge my father with my own hands!"

The regimental commander said with a dark face: "What are you doing here! Lao Tzu, is this a vegetable market! And is there a little bit of military discipline anymore! The entire Royal Army has nearly 9 million officers and soldiers, if they are all like you, they will not all be in chaos! Go back to Lao Tzu, the superiors have the consideration of the superiors, it's not that you want to go to the battlefield, you can go to the battlefield! ”

"Commander, I ......"

"Get out of here! Lao Tzu doesn't listen to anyone's words now, go back to Lao Tzu to do a good job in the ideological work of the soldiers, the first thing a soldier must do is to obey orders, not to go to the battlefield, to listen to the orders of his superiors! The regiment commander shouted to the battalion commanders and company commanders in the office.

After the battalion commander and company commander in the office left the office dejectedly, the regiment commander breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately picked up the phone on the desk and dialed the phone number of the division headquarters of the First Division of the Heilongjiang Garrison Army.

"Divisional commander, I'm Wang Guichang! Now that the war has broken out, I ask my superiors for permission to transfer me to the Guards or the Field Army, whatever it is to demote me, as long as I can go to the front, even if I am a soldier! Commander, you know my situation, my two brothers died at the hands of the Japanese, and I dreamed of seeking revenge from the Japanese! ”

"Wang Guichang, you kid listen to me, now except for the garrisons of several border provinces, a large number of officers and soldiers of other garrisons have asked to be transferred to the front line, but the Ministry of Defense has issued a death order, the officers and soldiers of each garrison army, unless there is an order from the Ministry of National Defense, it is forbidden to transfer to the Guards or the field army, the first thing a soldier must do is to obey the order, and what you have to do now is to do a good job in the ideological work of the officers and men of your regiment!"

"Commander, I'm ......"

"It's useless to say anything, Wang Guichang, your kid has reservations, that's all!"

Wang Guichang heard the blind voice in the microphone, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, why is the division commander so angry!

What Wang Guichang didn't know was that after the commander of the First Division of the Heilongjiang Garrison Army put down his phone, he immediately made a phone call to the commander of the Heilongjiang Garrison Army, "Army commander, now the officers and soldiers of our division are eager to fight, army commander, weren't you a subordinate of Minister Wu Peifu before?" Commander, you can't pull a relationship and transfer our Heilongjiang garrison to the front line! ”

"Alas, I have called the old leader a long time ago, but in addition to scolding me, the old leader did not agree to the transfer of our Heilongjiang garrison to the front line, so the old leader does not need to think about this."

"Commander, why don't you send all the officers and soldiers to write a bloody letter asking for war! Otherwise, even if the war is over, our Heilongjiang garrison may not be able to get a fight! ”

"Writing a blood book? Not to mention, this is also a way, otherwise our Heilongjiang garrison may really not even be able to drink a sip of soup! ”

In a relatively luxurious house in Zamboanga City, Luzon Province, the Chinese Empire, a young man was emotionally saying to his father and mother: "Father, mother, Britain, France, Russia, Belgium, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy, Ottoman Turkey, Spain, the United States and Japan, these 11 countries have declared war on our Chinese Empire!" At this moment, when the country is in danger, the son is not filial, and he is ready to sign up for the army immediately, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, father, mother, I hope you can fulfill your son's heart to serve the country! ”

The young man's mother wiped her tears and said, "Second child! You're a college student, and fighting a war isn't for a student like you! The country is at war, can't our family donate more money? Isn't donating more money also to serve the country? ”

Before the young man could speak, his father cried out to the young man's mother: "Don't be fooled, old woman! Now those Westerners and Orientals can't see that our Chinese people are living a good life, and want to ride on our necks to again, the emperor and his old man can't bear it, and he has declared war on those 11 countries, and the war is about to start, at this time you take care of your son, and other people also take care of their own son, you let the emperor and his old man go to get so many troops, so that he can go to war with those 11 countries! ”

Then the father said to the young man: "Second child, you don't have to worry about me and your mother, the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, Dad understands!" Father and mother support you to join the army, you don't have to worry about family affairs, and your eldest brother! ”

At this moment, another slightly older young man hurriedly walked in, "Dad, mother, I thought about it for a day, I decided to go back to the army to report, the family's business, Dad, you take care of one or two first, the second child's university is not far from us, he can also help!" ”

"Oops, brother! I've decided to join the army, don't go, the family's business, as well as my father and mother, are inseparable from you! ”

"Second brother, my brother has been a soldier in the army for 3 years before, how can my brother not go back at this time! Second, you are still in school, and this time our Chinese Empire broke out into war with 11 countries at once, the war will be very cruel, you have not married a wife and had children, unlike my brother, you already have a son to pass on the lineage. ”

"Just because you already have a wife and children, you can't go, if you have an accident on the battlefield, you let my sister-in-law and nephew, what should I do? I'm going to join the army! ”

"Brother used to be a soldier for 3 years, and the chance of survival on the battlefield is several times greater than that of you, a new melon egg, so you will honestly serve your father and mother at home, and serve the country, and my brother will bring out your share!"

"Brother, don't look down on me, I'm not a new melon egg, during the school's military training, my shooting score was the second in the school, and the instructors said that I have a talent for shooting, if I train it, maybe I can be a sniper!"

At this time, the father waved his hand and said, "Okay, you two brothers, don't quarrel, I have the business at home!" The eldest you will go back to the army to report, the second you will sign up for the army, at this time, our family can not drop the chain, since you both brothers have the heart to serve the country, Dad absolutely supports, if it is not for Dad is old, Dad also wants to pick up a gun, and those Westerners, Orientals to do it! ”

The brothers suddenly hesitated a little at this time, their father and mother had a total of 2 children, if they all went to join the army, what should their father and mother do?

The father saw the hesitation of the brothers, and said indifferently: "Me and your mother, you don't have to worry, besides, there is still the eldest daughter-in-law, even if you ...... Our fireworks haven't been cut off, let's go! ”

At this time, the mother of the two brothers spoke, "My mother is a woman's family, and I don't understand the big truth, but if there was no emperor and his old man, our family might have starved to death long ago, how can we have the current life!" Now the emperor and his old man have to fight with foreigners, our family has to do our best, not only your brothers have to go to the army to fight foreigners, but our family also has to donate money to the emperor and his old man, so that the emperor and his old man can buy more guns and cannons! ”

At this time, my father laughed and said, "Look, your mother is so sensible and donates money!" Gotta donate! In addition to the working capital of the shop, the remaining money of our family was donated to the emperor and his old man, building cannons, warships, and airplanes, and teaching those Westerners and Orientals a hard lesson! ”

After the Chinese Empire declared war with the 11 countries of the League of Nations, the Chinese Empire immediately set off a craze for joining the army, and tens of millions of enthusiastic young people came to the armed forces departments in various cities in charge of conscription, and strongly asked to join the army, and more people of the Chinese Empire spontaneously donated money to the country to support the Chinese Empire in this war against aggression.

Not to mention the officers and soldiers in the army, all of them are gearing up to compete with the armies of 11 countries, and the officers and soldiers of the garrison army in some provinces think that their troops have few opportunities to go to the front line, and they have written countless blood letters, hoping to go to the battlefield!
