"Restore the friendship that has existed for hundreds of years," Mutzsaburo read the last sentence disgustingly, he shook his head, threw the newspaper on the coffee table, closed his eyes, and his eyelids twitched all the time, "How can there be such a ridiculous word!" ”

"So, Foreign Minister, what do we need to do?"

"We don't need to do anything," Mutzsaburo opened his eyes, he had adjusted his facial expression, even if his heart was still beating wildly at this time, "The Chinese are trying to use such a ridiculous historical story of the past to tell everyone, telling Britain, France, Germany and Austria and other powerful countries that it is absolutely legal and reasonable for them to occupy colonies in Africa, but in this era, no one listens to these nonsense, all countries have abandoned etiquette and shame to seize benefits through the force of red fruit, such a ridiculous behavior of the Chinese, It won't last long, and in the near future, someone will inevitably punish them. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"We just have to wait."

"But the Qing State is too far away from the European powers, and it is impossible to make the Qing Kingdom break its bones simply by relying on the punishment of the African colonies!"

"So this is the best chance for our Japanese Empire," Mutzzaburo said calmly, "The European powers that are dissatisfied with the Qing will inevitably choose a country that is a threat to them among the countries close to China to support and help, just like Britain supported France to fight Germany, so may I ask, what other countries in Asia can compete with the Qing State?" ”

"Then, of course, only our Imperial Japan is in charge! By the way, and possibly Russia. ”

"Russia is impossible, their center of gravity will not be in Asia, and through this meeting we should clearly see that Russia will not continue to entangle with China, the Chinese have reached a reconciliation with Russia, which allows the Russians to turn around and continue to work hard towards Europe, this is not in the interests of Britain, of course, Britain will not support Russia, we Japan will definitely become Britain's loyal partner in Asia, this is not only determined by our geographical location and strategic center of gravity, It's because Britain needs to win us over! ”

Mustizaburo was confident, not at all angry at the humiliation of suffering during this period of time, Britain was too busy to take care of himself, he spent more time on negotiations with various countries, through pressure on Ottoman Turkey, Britain has succeeded in protecting shipping against Russian invasion in the name of the Sinai Peninsula, the most important choke point in Asia and Africa, which is far more important than dealing with the Japanese. But the enigmatic self-confidence of the Mutizaburo was confident that the British would definitely need the Japanese. "The national policy of the British is to balance the continent, and the British cannot bear to let the Qing family dominate on the Asian continent."

Sure enough, as Mutsaburo expected, the secretary came to say, "Your Excellency Foreign Minister, the British Foreign Secretary has sent someone to invite the Foreign Minister to have afternoon tea together." ”

Mu Ci Saburo smiled with satisfaction, and the counselor next to him admired it very much, "Ah, the foreign minister is really a wise man like Zhuge Kongming!" ”

"I'm sure the British will come up with a lot of incentives that we couldn't have imagined before," Mutizaburo said, standing up and putting on his bowler hat, "Let's wait and see." ”

Muts Saburo quickly arrived at the residence of British Foreign Secretary Georgia, Georgia stood up in the living room with a smile, and walked towards Muts Saburo, more warm and polite than ever, "Welcome, my dear Oriental friend, I am glad that you can come and have afternoon tea with us." ”

"Britain is our favorite country in Japan, because Britain is the most advanced country in the world, and Japan hopes to learn anything more advanced from your country, including institutional culture and civilization," Mutsaburo made no secret of his admiration for Britain, "This is not my opinion alone, but the whole of Japan thinks so." ”

"We welcome any country willing to learn from the West, and yours, I can admit from a private point of view, are indeed the most advanced and civilized country in Asia," Georgia praised enthusiastically, inviting Mutssaburo to sit down, and Mustizaburo's sharp eyes saw the Berliner Zeitung, which was thrown aside, which also published a ridiculous story of centuries-old friendship between Chinese and Somali tribes. ”

"I completely agree with this, before I went out, I saw a newspaper, and the ridiculous story on it fully explained that the Qing attack area was placed here in Africa, and Japan was extremely indignant about this kind of behavior, and we are willing to help against this kind of behavior that does not comply with international laws."

"We are very grateful for this," Georgia nodded and said, "There is a saying that the Chinese have been repeatedly mentioning recently, that is, 'since ancient times', saying that some lands have been Chinese territory since ancient times, my God, why do such old words always appear in Chinese words!" Don't they know that this so-called old thing is completely useless! ”

"Yes, the Chinese have always been so rude, we are very willing to help the British, but it's a pity, the energy of our Japanese country is too small, the small one is completely insignificant to the powerful Qing country, it really can't help much," Mutzsaburo stood up and bowed deeply to Georgia, "I'm really sorry for this!" ”

Georgia's ineffectiveness has led to the Congo River Valley problem not going in the direction set by the British, which is a huge point of loss, although there is a truce in the Boer region to make up for it, but the opposition parties in the country are already ready to move, political opponents and party opponents want to get themselves out of power, he must save all this quickly, "This is not your country's problem, this is the problem of Britain, the British Empire has paid too little attention to Japan before, this is something that must be admitted, so I am here to formally extend an invitation to you, After the Berlin Conference, I would like you to return to London with me, and our Prime Minister has prepared a number of proposals to share with Japan, and I hope that we can cooperate with your country in many areas, including the order of the Yoshino, which is of great concern to your country. ”

Rao is Mutsaburo was prepared, but when he heard the Yoshino, he was still shocked, "Is this true?!!?!? ”

"Of course it's true," Georgia nodded with a smile as he instructed his secretary, "Please pour tea, the Foreign Minister doesn't drink whiskey, please pour him oriental tea!" (To be continued.) )
