Seymour decided to surrender, and the so-called peace negotiation was just surrender, just hoping to withdraw from the war with dignity. And in the end, it was the attitude of the Japanese, and Marshal Oyama Iwa of Japan thought about it for a while, and then finally chose to surrender. Because he was really afraid, Wang Guorui killed the Americans, that is, showed the Japanese. And Wang Guorui's methods made Dashan Yan feel ashamed, and he was also afraid that the Japanese soldiers under his command would be killed. So he chose to surrender, anyway, according to Wang Guorui's discipline, as long as he is willing to accept surrender, there will be no possibility of killing prisoners. However, if Wang Guorui is forced in a hurry, Wang Guorui will come to a "do not accept surrender", that is the most problematic thing, so Dashanyan took the initiative to surrender.

"The coalition has surrendered?" Wang Guorui asked.

"Yes, Seymour said they were willing to surrender, but ......" Lee seemed a little hesitant.

"But what?" Wang Guorui asked rhetorically.

"They want to be able to save some face for them, not to use the word surrender, to talk about peace. And don't use the phrase to lay down their arms, Seymour said they were willing to put their weapons in our hands and manage them centrally, and they wanted us not to send them to prisoner of war camps. They are willing to accept our men into their barracks for supervision, but they want them to continue to wear military uniforms, and to give them some dignity by not having their daily necessities and legitimate personal wealth confiscated. Li Enfu said.

"Hahahaha, I see, since that's the case, then we'll promise them." Wang Guorui replied.

Anyway, it is necessary to save some face for the British, and this time the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded, in fact, both sides did not declare war. And as long as there is no declaration of war, then everything can be manipulated, so what next. It's all up to the politician's broken mouth. As long as there is no declaration of war, that's fine. The idea of the British is to withdraw from this war with dignity, and since they can no longer do it, they naturally choose to withdraw from this war. However, the British hope that Wang Guorui will leave him some face, which can be regarded as giving them some face for the world boss.

"Let people in at once and take over the barracks of the countries. Then let them gather their weapons. Let's centralize management. Then they were confined to the camp, and we did not send them to the prisoner of war camp, and let them live in their old military tents, but they could not come out at will, and we provided daily food and lodging. As for them to wear military uniforms and not to wear prison uniforms, then we have promised them that it is good to give them decency and dignity. Wang Guorui said.

Soon, news of the "peace talks" of the Eight-Nation Coalition spread throughout Beijing and Tianjin. And began to spread rapidly to Zhili, so that the people here also cheered. It was the first time that those people had heard of such a huge victory, and that an enemy of nearly 200,000 men had surrendered and surrendered, and that those who had been annihilated had been annihilated, and that they had lost. Although this time it was only a nominal peace negotiation, in fact everyone knew what was going on. Although there is no such thing as surrender, since 1840, the Chinese people have heard of defeat every time. Either defeat here or defeat there. Time and again, almost all of them were proposed by the Chinese side to propose the so-called "peace talks", and the price of each peace negotiation was also land cession compensation. In exchange for a temporary peace.

But now, although it is also a peace negotiation, according to the propaganda of the government controlled by Wang Guorui, this time it was the Eight-Nation Alliance that took the initiative to negotiate peace, and this time it really made them feel angry. This time, 200,000 foreign troops came over in a menacing manner, but they were taught a thorough lesson by Wang Guorui, so they took the initiative to propose peace. This time, it made them feel very comfortable, like eating an ice cream in summer, and they were all comfortable!

Soon, Taiwan's army immediately sent personnel into the barracks of various countries, and then took the orders of the officers of various countries to order peace. And then it was handed over to those officers. Taiwan's army has also sent people to take over their weapons and equipment, and asked them to hand over their weapons and equipment to Taiwan's army for centralized management. Of course, this is not a surrender, this is just a negotiation of peace, and it is only a method adopted to avoid conflict, and these weapons can still be returned to the troops of various countries according to the requirements after they leave, and they are now being collected and handed over to the Taiwan army for centralized management, not disarming and surrendering.

"May I ask you, Lord Wang, this time the allied forces of various countries entered our China together, and then were attacked by the army led by you, successfully annihilating a large number of enemies, forcing them to choose peace, this can be said to be your credit. And what do you think about this? A Chinese reporter asked.

Wang Guorui replied: "In this battle between us and the armies of various countries, both sides have suffered great losses, and I hope that both sides will also use peaceful methods to sit down and negotiate to avoid more losses and casualties." ”

Wang Guorui is completely answering the question, anyway, he said these empty words, as if he was answering, and it was useless to carefully scrutinize the forehead.

Immediately, an American reporter shouted: "Lord Wang, don't you have some shame that you Chinese have killed so many people in our armies in this war?" ”

Wang Guorui replied with a smile: "Strictly speaking, this time cannot be called a war, but a misunderstanding between us and other countries. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, we have officially entered the peace negotiation stage. This time we were just some friction, and we didn't go to war. Neither of us has declared war, so it cannot be called war. We are just a small friction, and I deeply regret the Americans who died in this friction. After all, it is not surprising that this kind of friction between the armies of various countries also occurs frequently. ”

"Poof-" Many foreign reporters almost fainted.

Wang Guorui is really shameless, and a friction explains these things. What kind of friction, one friction will cost the lives of tens of thousands of Americans, this kind of friction is really too "big", right? However, neither side declared war, so neither side could say anything. According to Wang Guorui's private communication with the British, this time it is good to deal with this period in a low-key manner and leave some face for the British. If this incident is characterized as a war, then the British will lose the war, and the British will really not accept it. But if you define it as friction, then things are much easier. No matter how proud the British are, although they may not be able to accept defeat in the war, they can accept the "friction" defeat. A war, a military friction, the situation is very different. The British could not accept defeat in the war, but friction defeat was nothing, and even the proudest British would not make a fuss about a friction defeat. Therefore, this conflict is also defined as "friction", although this friction is a little bigger, but in the end it must be defined as friction, not as war. Neither side declared war, which also gave everyone a condition for a secret deal.

"However, I want to say one thing here, that is, China has come to this day, and it is no longer an era when some countries can conquer it with a few cannons on the coast! Gone are the days when a few cannons could conquer our China on the coastal shelf! Wang Guorui said.

"Well, in the future, it will be impossible for any country to conquer our China at will!" Immediately someone shouted.

"Yes! In the future, if we can't conquer it casually, then we will be able to rejuvenate China and stand on top of the world again! "Long live Lord Wang, long live Lord Wang!" ……

Everyone began to cheer, because they heard Wang Guorui's bold words, which made them all feel angry. In the past few decades, China has also faced invasions from other countries, and then they can send a few warships to bring China to its knees, make China cede land and pay reparations, and then fire a few shells to force them to submit. In order to survive, the extremely weak Manchu government chose to be generous to others, ceding those lands and selling all kinds of national rights and interests, so that they could survive.

And China has suffered countless humiliations, which makes countless people of insight feel extremely tragic. Now that they have defeated the invasion of the eight Western countries, they can all really feel the dignity, the strength of China, and the humiliation that China used to be in the past is gone. This time, Wang Guorui defeated the Eight-Nation Alliance, although he did not let them surrender voluntarily, but even if it was just to negotiate peace, it was enough to make them feel dignity. This time, however, the countries took the initiative to ask for peace, and this time there will certainly be no land cession and indemnity, and naturally there will be no humiliating and unequal traitorous treaties. With Wang Guorui's toughness, he will naturally not allow this kind of thing to happen, and Wang Guorui will never sign any unequal treaties all along.

Therefore, in the future, Wang Guorui's prestige will inevitably rise sharply this time, and he will suddenly be able to surpass many Manchu rulers, and at that time, Wang Guorui's prestige in the country will definitely increase greatly, and then he will definitely be able to lay an important and solid foundation for him to replace the Manchus in the future to rule China. In this era, a hero is needed, and hundreds of people are looking forward to a hero, and Wang Guorui happened to become this "hero" at this time, so he is destined to become a "hero" who rules this country. Because the people will pin their hopes on a strong hero, and Wang Guorui can be their hero, a hero who can protect them. (To be continued.) )
