"It can't be!" Wade shouted out in a gaffe, and after shouting out, he realized that he seemed to be shocked by the news of the Chinese and lost the demeanor that a gentleman should have, but at this time, obviously no one paid attention to him, and more people had shock, excitement and anger on their faces, and quickly exchanged heads and ears with the people on the side, and the venue was suddenly noisy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Taiichi Tanabe quickly stood up and left with his sleeves brushed away, obviously this news must be transmitted back to China immediately, immediately! The current military strength of the Chinese, regardless of the internal situation, has been shown externally and is surprisingly powerful, and under such circumstances, some unnecessary conspiracy and intrigue rebellion will not work, or rather, the effect will not be great.

He walked out of the Prime Minister's Yamen quickly, the sky outside was a little dark, today was a cloudy day, the air was full of moisture, and it was raining.

Wade reined in his thoughts, obviously Zhang Jing of this office was also waiting for the envoys of various countries to come back to his senses, smiled indifferently and did not say a word, just stood in a chic manner, "May I ask this lord," Wade organized his language for a while, and said, the British are highly respected on any occasion, and this is no exception, as soon as Wade spoke, the rest of the ambassadors stopped talking and looked at what Wade was about to say, "Does your country need to continue military operations next?" ”

"Yes," this Zhang Jing nodded and admitted, "the battle in Beiqi is not over yet, and the battle will start in the encirclement immediately." ”

"What about the rest of the world?" Wade asked, his sharp eyes fixed on Zhang Jing, "In other places, such as central and southern Vietnam, is your country going to start a military operation as well?" ”

Wade's political level is very high, the rest of the ambassadors heard Wade's question, and couldn't help but nod their heads repeatedly, what is the attitude of the Chinese next, accept it when they see it, or continue to expand the results? This is a matter of great concern, if the Chinese continue to take military action and are unwilling to continue negotiations with the French, it means that they still have combat capability, have not been damaged in the previous encirclement and suppression, and their attitude towards foreign relations and diplomacy may be reflected in the trend of this war.

If the Chinese have the idea of withdrawing troops, then they will inevitably propose peace talks, in this case, the envoys of various countries can probably come to act as an intermediary again, the US ambassador does not care who wins and who loses in the war in Vietnam, but he is very happy to act as this intermediary, you must know that Mr. Ambassador, who facilitated the tripartite peace talks between China, Britain and the United States during the Second Opium War and seized huge benefits for the United States, has returned to China as deputy secretary of state, and is now the secretary of state, Both the Democrats and Republicans unanimously praised him for his superb diplomatic skills, and the middleman ate the east and the west, which was a very cost-effective deal, and as long as the British did not interfere, the Americans would definitely be able to take this position. So he also looked at how the Chinese answered this question.

This Zhang Jing of the office smiled indifferently and nodded slightly, what a joke, such a question, he has long been ready to answer, if you want to stand in this position and tear up with the envoys of various countries, oh, no, speaking and communicating, not only need to be fluent in foreign languages, but also need to deal with the questions suddenly thrown by foreign ambassadors at any time, such as the very difficult question that British Ambassador Wade said now.

Fortunately, of course, this kind of uncomfortable question, this Zhang Jing has long been prepared, he said, "Military matters could not be announced by the Prime Minister Yamen, but we, the Empress Dowager of the Great Qing Dynasty," he stretched out his hands and bowed his hands into the air to show respect, "A special decree has been issued, to tell the ambassadors of all countries, that there is nothing to be done in Vietnam, and in addition to the French and North Vietnamese coalition forces that will continue to besiege Beiqi, the new army will send another town to march south, and we must not only ask for an explanation for the Vietnamese people," Zhang Jing's face showed a look of compassion, "The Vietnamese people are like the people of the Celestial Empire, we can't let them continue to be abused by the French, we must rescue them." ”

Chinese's face is getting thicker and thicker, and the envoys of various countries are silent, wanting to pinch soft persimmons and beat water dogs, everyone understands, now France's power in Vietnam is almost a waste, and the normal situation is to continue to attack to win the most perfect victory, but what does Vietnam appoint keeps saying, this is really ......

"So we have ruled out a town of soldiers going to the south of the Red River, the central area, of course, we will not rule out going to Nanqi to help the Vietnamese people make their own choices," Zhang Jing smiled, "Of course," he continued to answer another question that everyone wanted to ask, "Nanyang Naval Division will also go south." ”

At this time, the big guys were very clear, the Chinese decided to continue to fight the French to the end, not only to besiege the 20,000 or so French troops in the north, no, now there are only about half of the French army left, but also to clean up the French army in the south, obviously, the Chinese are ready to be tough to the end.

Wade slowly put on the white gloves, ready to leave, the tough measures taken by the Chinese to the outside world, against the French, will it mean that China has taken a tough attitude towards Europe, Britain, France, the United States, Japan, Germany, Austria and Russia? This is questionable and requires deep reflection.

But at this time, Zhang Jing continued to speak, apparently he had not finished speaking, "We are preparing to negotiate with the French at the same time. ”

Wade stopped what he was doing again and stared at this Zhang Jing. "China is a peace-loving country, and we are willing to get along with all countries under the condition of national sovereignty and integrity, stay away from war and share peace together, so I conveyed the meaning of Prime Minister Yamen, that is, we are ready to negotiate with the French in Guangzhou, this place, of course, we have no diplomatic relations with France now, so I hope that we can communicate and coordinate through the relationship between the ambassadors and gentlemen of various countries, to ensure that we and the French can have the opportunity to negotiate."

"This can be done through us in the United States," the American ambassador quickly stood up, clearly determined to succeed in this matter, "and we can communicate effectively with France." ”

Wade obviously doesn't look down on this kind of petty profit, he is not uncommon to be a mediator, but he is concerned about other things, he asked, "Then during the negotiations with France, will your country not stop military operations?" (To be continued.) )
