651 The United States submits

On February 4, 1900, half a month after Lin Fei started a trade war again, the US ambassador came to Lin Fei in despair, but was stopped by Lin Fei's secretary general, Xiyun, outside Lin Fei's office.

The U.S. ambassador explained his intentions, and Xi Yun went to Lin Fei excitedly, "Husband, the Americans really can't stand it, the U.S. ambassador is outside now, asking you to resume gasoline exports to the United States." ”

Lin Fei turned his face blank, pretended to be angry, and reprimanded: "What are you so happy to do, as if we can't punish them if the United States doesn't give in, okay, go and call the American ambassador in." ”

Xiyun grinned and grimaced, "I'm going to bring the American ambassador in." ”

Xiyun turned around and left after speaking, Lin Fei smiled behind him: "Wait a minute, let people go and call Kang Youwei together, I want Kang Youwei to watch the American ambassador succumb with my own eyes." ”

Xiyun agreed, went to ask someone to call Kang Youwei, and then went out to invite the American ambassador in, the American ambassador came to Lin Fei, Lin Fei first asked the American ambassador to sit down, and then ordered Xiyun to pour tea, Lin Fei now especially likes to show his beautiful concubine in front of foreigners, making them all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

The U.S. ambassador stared at Xiyun for a while, and then said to Lin Fei: "Mr. Lin Fei, I'm here to ...... this time."

"Wait a minute, let's wait for a friend, and we'll talk about business when that friend comes."

"Who's that friend?"

"You'll know when you come."

The U.S. ambassador saw Lin Fei and refused to say, so he had to wait silently, when Kang Youwei walked in from outside, the U.S. ambassador was surprised to see Kang Youwei, only to see that Kang Youwei had taken off his face at this time, the original Kang Youwei, slightly fat, full of red face, Kang Youwei at this time, skinny and skinny, sallow complexion, deep sunken eyes, and dull eyes.

The U.S. ambassador was shocked and said angrily to Lin Fei: "Mr. Lin Fei, did you abuse Mr. Kang Youwei wantonly, which turned him into this kind of human and ghost?" ”

Lin Feile said hehehe: "I didn't torture Mr. Kang Youwei, the reason why he became like this is all because of himself." ”

Lin Fei's words are true, Lin Fei does not have much good impression of Kang Youwei, although some people think that Kang Youwei is the initiator of the Westernization Movement, is a relatively good figure, but the research of Lin Fei's era shows that Kang Youwei is actually a villain who deceives the world and steals fame, and the well-known book on the bus in Lin Fei's era is considered to be the most glorious thing in Kang Youwei's life, but the research of later generations shows that the so-called book on the bus is completely Kang Youwei's boasting, and there is no such thing in history.

Although these things were controversial in Lin Fei's time, Lin Fei agreed that Kang Youwei was a villain's method, so he had no good impression of Kang Youwei, plus Kang Youwei once advocated the "Sino-Japanese Union" and wanted to merge China and Japan into one country, Kang Youwei also advocated selling Inner Mongolia, Qinghai, Western Desert Province, and Western Plateau Province to the great powers in exchange for a large sum of silver.

These things made Lin Fei full of disgust for Kang Youwei, but Lin Fei did not torture and abuse Kang Youwei, after all, Kang Youwei was a literati, Lin Fei couldn't bear to abuse such a powerless guy, Lin Fei just imprisoned Kang Youwei and the felons.

Kang Youwei eats the same food as felons, Lin Fei has no mercy for felons, so they eat as much as they can, how can Kang Youwei, who is not tired of eating, stand this kind of rough diet, so he quickly lost weight.

Kang Youwei is an alternative among the prisoners, so he has been bullied, of course the prisoners will not beat Kang Youwei, in Lin Fei's prison, there is absolutely no cell boss and prison bully, Lin Fei once gave an order, whoever wants to be the boss in the prison will kill in one word, kill.

Although the prisoners didn't dare to hit Kang Youwei, the cold ridicule was every day, and Kang Youwei soon became what he is now.

The U.S. ambassador sighed and said, "Okay, Mr. Lin Fei, let's not talk about Mr. Kang Youwei, I came this time in the hope that the Chinese Empire can resume gasoline exports to the United States as soon as possible, and I hope you will agree." ”

Lin Fei said with a smile: "If you want me to agree to resume gasoline exports to the United States, there is no problem, but you America, you must promise me that you will never interfere in our war with the Qing Kingdom." ”

The U.S. ambassador had long expected Lin Fei to say this, he sighed helplessly, and said in a mournful voice: "Okay, I agree, as long as you can resume gasoline exports to the United States as soon as possible, we are willing to promise not to interfere in the war between your country and the Qing country." ”

Lin Fei laughed, turned his head to look at Kang Youwei, Kang Youwei's eyes flashed a look of astonishment and despair, the only belief that supported him these days was that the United States sent troops as soon as possible to force Lin Fei to change his plan to overthrow the Qing court, but now, the American ambassador actually promised not to interfere in the war between the Qing and China.

Kang Youwei couldn't help it, and said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. American Ambassador, don't forget that there is an agreement between your country and our Qing Dynasty, and any infringement by a third party against either side of the Qing Dynasty and the United States will be regarded as an infringement on both sides, and China's attack on our Qing Dynasty is an invasion of the United States of America." ”

The U.S. ambassador looked at Kang Youwei in shame and didn't speak, Lin Fei smiled proudly: "Kang Youwei, now that they are in the United States of America, how can they have the strength to protect your Qing Dynasty." ”

Two lines of hot tears suddenly rolled down from Kang Youwei's eyes, the American ambassador turned his head, he couldn't bear to look at it again, Kang Youwei suddenly howled and cried, "Daqing, my Daqing......" He slipped from his chair and fell to the ground, knelt down in the northeast direction, and kept kowtowing.

Lin Fei casually took out a document and said with a smile: "Mr. American Ambassador, this is what I have prepared for a long time, the special agreement between China and the United States on the Qing issue, I hope you will sign this agreement, as long as you sign this agreement, I will resume gasoline exports to the United States." ”

The American ambassador smiled wryly and signed his name on the agreement, which had already been sent to the American ambassador and had already seen it from beginning to end.

The signing of this agreement by the U.S. ambassador on behalf of the government of the United States of America meant that the United States would no longer interfere in the war between Qing and China, and the last foreign aid of Qing would be gone.

After the U.S. ambassador finished signing, he walked out of Lin Fei's office gloomily, Lin Fei looked at the back of the U.S. ambassador, smiled proudly, looked back at Kang Youwei who was kneeling on the ground, kicked him lightly, and said coldly: "Kang Youwei, do you still want to go back to prison?" ”

Kang Youwei's whole body trembled, he shook his head, and Lin Fei sneered: "If you don't want to go back to prison, kneel in front of me, kowtow to me and apologize for your previous rudeness." ”

Kang Youwei's expression changed drastically, and he said in a trembling voice: "I...... I am a courtier of the Qing Dynasty, how can I give you Lin Fei to kneel down and kowtow? ”

"If you don't want to kowtow, then good, come on, put Kang Youwei in prison for me, and put him in the cell of a death row prisoner this time."

"No!" Kang Youwei's whole body trembled, and he hurriedly wailed: "Mr. Lin Fei, I am willing to kowtow to you to apologize." ”

"Good." Lin Fei took out the posture of a victor and stood proudly in front of Kang Youwei, Kang Youwei cried and knelt down to Lin Fei, kowtowed, and made amends, Lin Fei asked Kang Youwei to kowtow while talking about how he provoked himself, when Kang Youwei said, Lin Fei also interrupted him from time to time, saying some cool words, such as "Kang Youwei, you didn't expect you to have today" and the like, which made Kang Youwei extremely ashamed and wanted to die immediately.

Lin Fei tortured Kang Youwei enough, so he ordered his subordinates to detain Kang Youwei in a single cell to improve the food.

Lin Fei's subordinates took Kang Youwei down, and Lin Fei began to plan the next battle, from January 24 when Lin Fei declared war to today, February 6, these ten days, China and Qing did not break out in a large-scale battle.

On the Qing side, the Guangxu Emperor and the Empress Dowager Cixi were still silently fleeing to Xi'an, and after arriving in Zhili Huaiyuan, the Empress Dowager Cixi issued several edicts in succession, ordering officials from all over the country to stick to the land of the Qing Dynasty and not let the snitches take away half of the cent.

The Qing army then began to organize defenses in various places, but the Qing army's defensive ideology was to stick to the big cities and not allow the Chinese army to capture any of the big cities.

Under the guidance of this strategic thinking, the Qing army in the direction of Beijing began to hold in Shijiazhuang, the Qing army in the direction of Shandong began to hold in Jinan, the Qing army in the direction of Guangdong held in Guangzhou, and the Qing army in the direction of Fujian held in Fuzhou.

On the Huaxia Army's side, Lin Fei ordered his subordinates to gain a firm foothold in various provinces of the Qing Dynasty, and immediately carried out land reform and a campaign to change the distribution and change of clothes everywhere they went, so as to win the support of the majority of the poor people.

With two years of "peaceful evolution" as a foreshadowing, the poor people have a good impression of the Huaxia Army, and everywhere the Huaxia Army goes, there are people who eat pot pulp to welcome the Chinese soldiers.

After more than ten days of operation, the Huaxia army had already gained a firm foothold in the Qing State, and just waited for Lin Fei to give an order, and launched a fierce attack on the big cities controlled by the Qing State.

On February 5, the Empress Dowager Cixi arrived in Taiyuan, and she immediately issued an edict asking all localities to send money and grain to Taiyuan, and also recruited famous chefs in Taiyuan to satisfy her appetite.

The Empress Dowager Cixi was in Taiyuan, and she had to eat 50 dishes at every meal, and the governor of Shanxi also raised ten cows to ensure that the Empress Dowager Cixi could drink fresh milk every day, but despite this, the Empress Dowager Cixi still complained to the palace maids and eunuchs: "This day is too frugal, and it must be made up for until the day when the capital is returned to Beijing." ”
