    "Commander, Consul Zhu Erdian came to see me this afternoon and expressed the British government's concerns about the situation in the Far East and hopes that peace can be restored in the Far East as soon as possible!" In Wang Yuze's study, Foreign Minister Wu Tingfang reported to Wang Yuze.

    "Hmph! These British people have a good plan. When the Japanese attacked the Manchu Qing Dynasty last year, why didn't they stop them? Now that they see that the Japanese are about to be defeated, they jump out!" Wang Yuze said with some dissatisfaction.  .

    "Commander, this is the consistent style of the British. They have always implemented a continental balancing policy. This is true in Europe, and it is also true in Asia. When France dominated Europe, the British united with European countries to besiege France.  The Russians wanted to expand to the Far East, and the British supported the Japanese, even if the Japanese went to war with the Qing Dynasty and destroyed the peace in the Far East. Now that our rise is unstoppable, the British naturally want to use Japan as a pawn to support them.  Japan fought against us!" Wu Tingfang said.

    "The Japanese are indeed a good chess piece. However, as long as the British do not take action directly, we are not afraid. We can defeat the Japanese this time, and we can defeat them next time!" Wang Yuze said with certainty.  He has strong confidence that after reunifying China, China will inevitably achieve great development.  Even the first few years will be a bit difficult.  But once the market of hundreds of millions of people is cultivated, China will definitely take off.  And now the military strength of Western Sichuan has surpassed the entire Far East. Even if the Japanese have the support of the great powers, it will not be easy for the Japanese to catch up with Western Sichuan.  Japan's weak economic strength simply has no ability to compare with Western Sichuan.

    Although Wang Yuze once wanted to completely defeat Japan, this was somewhat unrealistic.  The great powers will not sit idly by.  Japan may be defeated, but it will never be destroyed.  In the next few years, the great powers will definitely try their best to support Japan.  By the time.  Western Sichuan will also face tremendous pressure.  However, once Western Sichuan has decisive power, it will inevitably plunge Japan into a place of eternal destruction!

    "By the way, Marshal. The British expressed their dissatisfaction with the 'Nagasaki Massacre' caused by the Navy. The famous British newspaper "The Times" reported this incident, which had a negative impact on our international image.  !" Wu Tingfang said.

    "Commander Deng of the naval fleet has already dealt with the relevant responsible persons. It was just when the navy was shelling. The shells missed the target. Who said Japanese houses are all made of wood? If they were made of bricks and tiles, it would not be the case.  It will cause such a huge loss! As for the dissatisfaction of the British, when the Japanese caused the "Lushun Massacre" last year, where did their sympathy go? Let people contact Europe and tell the Japanese about the massacre in Lushun last year.  Publish the information in newspapers. Let the so-called civilized people in Europe see the true face of the Japanese!" Wang Yuze said with some aura.  Those Europeans, all pretending to be civilized people, had their hands stained with blood when he rose to power.  Stronger now.  After bleaching, I think I have become a civilized person. In fact, I am just as cruel and cruel, but I just put on a civilized cloak.  There is simply no difference between him and a dressed-up beast.

    Wu Tingfang smiled and nodded. He knew Wang Yuze's character, so naturally he would not take these things to heart.  As for the Navy's claim that some shells missed the target, go ahead and lie to hell!  Since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894, Western Sichuan has deliberately guided the trend of public opinion and announced many tragedies caused by the Japanese in Liaodong.  The people in western Sichuan gnashed their teeth in hatred for Japan, and the army had long been determined to take revenge. Now that there is such an opportunity, the radical elements in the army will certainly not let go of such an opportunity.

    "Commander. Since the Japanese have already lost, why are they still unwilling to surrender? This can also reduce their losses!" Wu Tingfang said with some doubts.  Now Western Sichuan's navy is wreaking havoc along the coast of Japan, causing huge losses to Japan every day.  If peace could be negotiated one day earlier, Japan would no longer have to be ravaged by the Western Sichuan Navy.

    "Minister Wu, you are familiar with Britain and the United States, but you don't know much about the Japanese. The Japanese are very paranoid. At the same time, they also know that the price of failure in this war will be very serious. If they take the initiative to beg for surrender,  When the time comes, we will definitely open our mouths and make them lose even their crotch cloth. Therefore, they are waiting for the opportunity, waiting for their army to win. Then they will be able to use victory to promote peace. In that case  , naturally we can¡¯t ask them to pay much compensation!¡± Wang Yuze said.

    "That's it. Can our army withstand the Japanese army's attack?" Wu Tingfang said with some worry.

    "Of course, the army is our strength. Although the Japanese army is also very powerful, it is still far behind compared to us.Just one thing.  The Japanese expect the army to win and then use victory to promote peace. How can we let them get what they want?  This time, Japan must lose its wife and troops!  "Wang Yuze said. If the Japanese army is defeated again, Japan will have no choice. At that time, he will have to take a bite out of the Japanese.

    "I feel relieved about this. Marshal, now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been destroyed, there are already voices among the people, hoping that the Marshal can ascend the throne as soon as possible. What does the Marshal think?" Wu Tingfang asked.  The cabinet also has this intention.  It's just that Wang Yuze has never expressed a specific intention, and everyone doesn't know what to do?

    "Let's wait a moment! We will wait until Japan is defeated and a peace treaty is signed. In addition, the capital is too chaotic now. We will wait until everything stabilizes!" Wang Yuze said.

    Wu Tingfang nodded, then said goodbye and left.  After the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it was natural for Western Sichuan to replace the Manchu Qing Dynasty and take over the central power.  Once Wang Yuze ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, he will definitely reward these important officials generously.  As a Chinese, who doesn¡¯t want to marry his wife?  So everyone is looking forward to this day.

    In the British Embassy in Beijing, Dongjiaomin Lane, the British Minister to China Ogner, the French Minister to China Tian Chun, the Russian Minister to China Cassini, and the American Minister to China Tian Chun, these four people gathered together again to discuss  The current situation in the Far East.  Although the war between China and Japan has not yet ended, in their view, Japan has already lost.  After Western Sichuan unified China, its rise has become unstoppable. However, this will inevitably have a huge impact on the interests of various countries in the Far East.  They must be prepared to minimize this impact as much as possible.

    "Damn yellow-skinned monkeys. Your Excellency Organa, the blockade of those yellow-skinned monkeys on us is still continuing. We can no longer get food, vegetables and various living supplies from the outside. Those yellow-skinned monkeys are still threatening us. If we don't  If you hand over those Qing nobles, they will cut off the water supply!" As soon as the French Minister Tian Chun sat down, he immediately started cursing.

    After Western Sichuan invaded the capital, some Manchu nobles who had good relations with other countries hid in Dongjiaominxiang, and various countries prohibited Western Sichuan troops from entering to search for these Manchu nobles. This caused huge conflicts between Western Sichuan and other countries.  Now, various means are being used to force countries to hand over people.

    "Cut off the water supply? These damn guys, do they want to make us all thirsty and starve to death?" Organizer, the British Minister to China, also changed his face.  In terms of food, with the food stored in the legation, they can cope with it for a while.  But if the water supply is cut off, they won't be able to survive for a day.

    "Otherwise, we will hand over these Qing nobles to them!" Russian Minister Cassini said.

    "No! Those Qing nobles have already applied for political asylum from us. If we hand them over to the people from Western Sichuan, we will break their trust. This will be a huge loss to the reputation of all countries!" Oger  Na refused.

    "Then what should we do? Can't we fight them head-on? The United States has already planned to hand over these Qing nobles to Western Sichuan. Now that Western Sichuan has taken the leadership of China, we don't need to make enemies with Western Sichuan for these Qing nobles.  Don¡¯t forget, all countries have a lot of investment in China. If Western Sichuan takes this opportunity to confiscate all of it, our losses will be huge!¡± said U.S. Minister Tian Bei.

    "Damn it, if they dare to do that, then we will declare war on them!" French Minister Tian Chun jumped up.  In recent years, France has invested in a lot of railways and mines in China.  If it were confiscated, France would suffer heavy losses.  As for a war with western Sichuan, France alone may not be able to defeat it.

    In the end, after discussion, they still planned to hand over the Manchu nobles to western Sichuan to ease the tense relationship between the two parties.

    "Gentlemen, the situation in the Far East has undergone major changes, which is a huge impact for all our countries. A strong China is not in the interests of all our countries. It is time for us to take some measures to curb this  It¡¯s time for a strong country!¡± said the British Minister Organa.  This is exactly the purpose of calling in ministers from several countries today.  Germany has always had good relations with Western Sichuan, so German Minister Marcos was not among those invited.

    "Then what should we do? Go to war with Western Sichuan? Now the rise of Western Sichuan is unstoppable. After they unified China, there is no power to stop them. Even if our countries unite to go to war with Western Sichuan, I am afraid we will have to pay  It¡¯s a huge price! This price is not something we can afford!¡± U.S. Minister Tian Bei said with a frown.  In the United States today, the main focus is still on making money. As for military expansion and the like, I am not very impressed yet.Interesting.
