Three-seven-nine opinion is, showdown

The night was deep, and the huge city of Beijing had already fallen asleep, but the British Embassy in Beijing was still brightly lit, and it seemed that it was stubborn to let everyone see it. 【 I want: super fast update 】

Suddenly, several cars broke the silence and drove from the street entrance to the entrance of the embassy, and the guards and attendants who had been notified immediately rushed up one after another, and began to move things down from the cars in a hurry.

Sa Daoyi glanced around, he had been fond of this country for a long time, and he originally hoped to come to this country after retirement, but he didn't expect that he would come to this country at this time and shoulder an important mission.

After taking a deep breath and feeling the atmosphere that was completely different from that of the British, Sa Daoyi saw Dou Maile coming out of the embassy, looking at his bloodshot eyes, and couldn't help but feel worried about this companion.

During this time, his pressure was too great, and the Chinese army was advancing south almost all the time, and those Chinese in the south had completely lost their resistance, so there had not even been a decent battle in recent times.

On one side is the Chinese army, which is advancing wildly and recovering the country, and the morale is high.

On one side were exhausted, having not received any supplies for nearly a month, and the British Far Eastern soldiers who were surrounded in Shanghai and Hong Kong respectively, the scales tilted at once.

Unlike the Prime Minister's Office, Sadaoyi is probably a British diplomat who has long thought that Britain should not be involved in the war in China, and many people say that Li Mo can fight two wars at the same time, why can't Britain? But they all forgot that Li Mo's army was fighting on the ground and that the battle in the northwest had no opponent at all, if it weren't for the long distance and difficult roads, I believe it would have ended long ago.

But for the British, the Far East was too far away from Europe, and the Chinese army proved that they were very good at exploiting the enemy's exhaustion, and the Russian fleet failed to make a detour halfway around the world, and the Japanese fleet returned to China also failed, not in technology and equipment, but in exhaustion.

For centuries, any expeditionary army was more defeated than victorious, and the big problem was the exhaustion after being far from home, although the British had many military bases in the Far East, but in fact they were all within the range of the Chinese army, and if the base was placed in India, it would seem too far away, so the expedition was only a strategy.

The war with the Boers showed that the empire was at a low ebb, and crucially, because the long-standing policy of isolation on the non-aligned continent had left Britain with few allies, and behind this conflict, there were countless eyes that gloated and awaited the decay of the empire, so the Prime Minister's Office would be in a dilemma.

"Dear Dou Maile, you have worked hard. After hugging Dou Maile, Sa Daoyi immediately walked upstairs with him and asked as he walked, "How is Lieutenant General Philitman?" ”

"Very bad." After Dou Maile invited him to sit down, he shook his head with a wry smile: "I have already sent people to Hong Kong, but the telegraph lines there have all been cut by the Chinese army, so they can only communicate through Guangzhou." ”

"Now an infantry division of the Chinese army has occupied Kowloon and is preparing to attack Hong Kong, and there are two marines to help. In addition, their army advanced very well in the south, and basically did not encounter resistance, if it were not for the need to garrison and stabilize the place, I believe that Li Mo would have recovered the south long ago. ”

Dou Maile picked up his coffee, moistened his throat and continued to introduce to Sa Daoyi: "General Philitman once tried to break through, but as long as it was an anchor, it would be immediately torpedoed, and now Li Mo's army has entered Guangdong and Guangxi one after another, if you can't stop them, I'm afraid it will ......." ”

Looking at Dou Maile who shook his head, Sa Daoyi knew very well how big the trouble was in Britain at the moment, and if it couldn't start negotiations, maybe the Prime Minister's Office would have to start a bad plan.

"Ambassador Dou Maile, what about Li Mo's technology for that kind of battleship?" Sa Daoyi asked about his other mission in the Far East.

The smile on Dou Maile's face was bitter: "Three million pounds, in addition, we must wait until the end of the negotiations, and our team will all withdraw from China." ”

"Damn it"

Sa Daoyi secretly clenched his fists, he knew that Li Mo would open his mouth, but he didn't expect to put forward such an rude condition, but they also thought that Britain was too simple, so he hurriedly comforted: "Dou Maile, please rest assured, some people have miscalculated, I have already brought the plan of the Admiralty this time, and the plan has been approved by the Prime Minister, and now the important thing is to send him to General Phillettman as much as possible." ”

"Plan?"

In Dou Maile's brighter and brighter eyes, Sadao gave Dou Maile the decisions made by the British government and the negotiation cards, hoping to make the British ambassador who was tired during this time a little relieved, but he didn't notice that one ear under the wall outside the window was already erected high.

When the lights in the room were finally extinguished, the owner of the ear immediately flashed into the ** military camp next to the embassy, took off the British military uniform on his body, put it back in front of a soldier who was stunned by incense, and quietly left the embassy.

"The British are really unwilling"

At the regular meeting, Li Enfu pinched the news just sent by the Ministry of Intelligence, and his eyes gradually became cold, he did not expect that the British government was actually ready to pretend to agree to the conditions, and then take advantage of the opportunity of the rendezvous between the Far East Fleet and the Indian Support Fleet to turn around and retaliate.

According to what was eavesdropped, Britain was preparing to sink at least three or more capital ships on its side, then avoid Gapo, temporarily withdraw from China, and then help the Russians to continue to consume themselves

Sure enough, it's a good plan, if you really believe in these powers, maybe you will really eat this trick, but fortunately, your side has been prepared, but.

"Yuanshou, when will the emperor come back?" Li Enfu glanced at Chen Pingren, who was sitting on the side, and felt a little remorseful in his heart, now that he thought about it, he was a little inconsiderate when he stopped the navy from taking drastic measures, after all, the army and the government are different, the army has its own code of conduct, and if it intervenes forcibly, it will hit morale.

In the final analysis, he was just a man of letters, and he didn't know how to fight, and he was really scared at the time, probably because he had fought too much in the previous battle, and once he encountered a tough opponent, he was the first to be unprepared, although the confidence of winning was not reduced, but he was not stable about how much he should pay.

Moreover, he was really afraid that the navy would recklessly go all out and destroy the original policy of promoting peace by war, and the emperor did not come back at that time, and he was also afraid that the situation he had managed to fight would be in trouble because of the excessive consumption of Britain.

But he is also helpless, in fact, Hua really can't play with Britain to attrition, after all, Hua Jianguo has not been in existence for a few years, the bottom is too thin, and few people have noticed, in fact, at this moment to start preparing for the destined war against Russia, if the consumption is really too great, even if Britain is defeated later, it will lead to a difficult war against Russia.

It turned out that he was going to use the Chinese ship to at least establish an alliance with Germany, but he didn't expect that Germany didn't take care of itself, resulting in a lack of European allies to contain it, so if it really happened, I am afraid that no one would be able to control the situation.

So with his stopping, he reluctantly compromised with Chen Ping.

Hearing Li Enfu's inquiry, and the gaze he cast, Chen Ping nodded slightly, he knew the prime minister's thoughts, the last incident did cause a lot of discussion and dissatisfaction, especially when the emperor had not come back on the road, and the military power has always been directly controlled by the emperor, so the interference of the prime minister's office has actually crossed the line.

Especially middle-level officers, after learning about this incident, many people do not understand, they can accept to fight to promote peace, but they cannot accept similar to an executive order to interfere in the army, they are not aimed at anyone, but the army does have a code of conduct for the army, there is no reason for others to fight back and control their emotions and fight back

According to the idea of the Navy at that time, it was still possible to rely on submarines, desperately lose a few capital ships, and go all out to break through Victoria Bay, not to mention that they still had a lot of good things that had not yet come out, such as using "suffocation" again

However, Chen Ping can also understand Li Enfu's mood, after all, the emperor did not come back at that time, and no one dared to decide whether to expand the war, in case it attracted all-out retaliation, it was really annoying, and at that time, even he did not dare to make up his mind easily, otherwise as his chief of staff, he could directly order the action instead of accepting Li Enfu's arrangement.

Hua has become bigger and bigger, and many people and many things have begun to be involved, so it can no longer be as sexual as before, Li Enfu is indeed right in his words, "The army must serve the interests of the country"

Thinking of this, he immediately nodded at Li Enfu and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, the emperor has called to say that he still has to attend an important meeting of the Ministry of Science and Technology, so he can't come back for the time being, and this negotiation with the UK will be handled by you with full authority."

"He also said that the Prime Minister's Office is the core leadership department of the country and has the right to dictate domestic and foreign policies, so your decision is his decision, and even if you decide to fight again, the military and various departments must fully cooperate"

Chen Ping's words undoubtedly represent the military's decision, and Li Mo's message through his mouth is undoubtedly telling everyone present that even if he has crossed the border before, the emperor still supports the prime minister.

This made Li Enfu's heart full of gratitude, and at the same time, it also let him know that this seemed to be the emperor's trust in him personally, but it was better to say that the emperor had decided to straighten out the Prime Minister's Office and truly appear as a high-power department of the country, rather than the shadow-like staff government

Thinking of this, Li Enfu took a deep breath, not only swept away the fading color, but also seemed to add a little confidence, and said with a smile: "Since the emperor has said that we will handle it, then my opinion is." Speaking of this, he glanced at everyone, paused for a moment, and then said two words coldly.

"Showdown"
