1890 King of Southeast Asia

Chao will be interrupted by unexpected accidents.

The Bohai Sea has an area of ​​80,000 square kilometers. The inner sea of ​​the Qing Empire belongs to the internal water category. It is a shallow sea that is exclusive to the Qing Empire. The strategic location is important.

The Bohai Strait is the only entrance to the Bohai Sea. During the war of the youth, many battles broke out here. The Japanese Navy rushed into the Bohai Sea many times and bombarded the Shanhaiguan, causing a lot of losses to the Youth Empire.

The last time, the Qing Empire Morning Force has put hundreds of mines at one time, directly blocking the Strait. The Japanese Navy opened a waterway at a huge price to support the Japanese army of Shanhaiguan.

But stealing chickens did not erode rice. The Japanese Navy's battleship was hit by the Shanhaiguan defenders with 305 mm shores to fight back, losing a fearless ship.

Several war made the Qing Empire recognize the importance of controlling the Bohai Sea, and it was to vigorously develop mines and torpedo forces to control the entrance and exit of the Strait.

"So far, I haven't met the Beiyang Navy. What did they do?" Zhou Hong looked at the land in the distance, puzzled.

He is the captain of the Guangling and the commander of the cruiser team. Yesterday morning, the Guangling and Luling stabbed into the Bohai Sea, in order to psychological warfare.

While showing the Qing Empire, I was here, and I wanted to see the performance of the Beiyang Navy.

"The on -site observation room reported that a speedboat was found with a white flag in it." The vice vice quietly walked to him and said softly.

"Speedboat? Are you here to negotiate? Let them come over!" Zhou Hong hesitated and picked up the telescope.

The handheld telescope multiple is low and the distance is a bit far away. It can't be seen what the ship is, but the speed is fast. There is no thick smoke produced by coal combustion. It should be just an ordinary internal combustion speedboat.

After about forty minutes, a man with a French flag, wearing a melon skin hat, wearing a yellow horse gown, and a slightly rich man in the age of forty climbed the Guangling.

"Yin Xianhua, from the Governor's House of Zhili. May I ask a friend in Nanhua. You can do it in the sea of ​​Tianjin. What are you expensive?" Yin Xianhua saw Zhou Hong, put away the white flag, and asked.

"I ordered the Chief Staff of the Nanhua Navy to order the Bohai Water Culture Intelligence to find the supplies, landing points, and piercing the Beiyang Navy's information." Zhou Hong glanced at Yin Xianhua.

This did not talk nonsense. Zhao Jiaxing told him that if someone came to talk, he used this set of words. The Beiyang Army struck, and he first avoided his edge. Anyway, they ran fast.

"What? What? This adult, you and we have always been good, the blood is connected. When the battle between my country and the pirates has helped our country several times, why do you suddenly meet with the swords now?" Yin Xianhua asked in horror.

When I came up, my tone was still stiff, and I was honest with the smell of the sin of Xingshi. It is now honest, and there is also a humbleness in the panic.

"Call me Captain Zhou, I am the captain of this ship. As for why? That is what the General Staff has to consider, I am just a soldier, just obey the order."

Zhou Hong also didn't know the situation. He only knew that the commander was urging at the time of departure. He did not go shore along the way, and there was no source of news.

The radio stations conveyed the commands, but they did not say why they did it, but they had granted the rights of the soldiers to start fire in danger.

How to judge whether it is in danger is judged by the command agency. This kind of order was received for the first time, and it also stated to Zhou Hong that this time it may come true.

"Captain Zhou, Lord Zhou, what must be misunderstanding of this? You have to be calm and calm. My adult is communicating with the court. State.

"Yin Xianhua, Lord Yin, this matter is not what I can decide. I am a soldier and only obey the order. If I receive an offensive order, I will not hesitate to fight the port.

Therefore, please also ask Master Yin to quickly evacuate the ports of the port, so as not to suffer huge losses. "Zhou Hong's eyes turned.

After receiving this order, everyone knew that this time it was impossible to run in vain, or either the green empire simply spit out some benefits, or to hit the Qing Empire in some benefits.

When Zhou Hong saw Yin Xianhua, he understood why there was such an order. Zhou Hong's words were so unpleasant and the taste of threats was so heavy, but Yin Xianhua's response was so weak.

"It seems that I also feel that the Qing Empire dare not fight. We should not want to fight. Otherwise, we won't get such orders.

"Master Zhou, don't! Everything is good for everything ..." Yin Xianhua flattered a stack of banknotes while flattering, or South China banknotes.

Nympho

On July 11, Yin Xianhua lost his return to the Governor's House of Zhili. The news of South China was going to fight the port and the turret, which caused a little panic -the panic of the Qing empire.

Foreign ships are still running. After all, South China has not asked them to leave the port. According to international practice, there will be no problems for a while.

On July 13th, the Changan battleship appeared in the Bohai Bay. The British began to be nervous. The King of the United Kingdom summoned the South China Ambassador and hoped that the Qing Empire would maintain the status quo.

On July 14th, Nanhua issued a war warning to the Youth Empire, asking the Qing Empire to explain and compensation for losses, otherwise South China will take necessary measures.

On the 15th, after the DPRK, the heads of the Qing Empire gathered again.

"Sir Yuan, the ambassador still doesn't want to see you? If not, let's rush in and talk to him?" Zaifeng asked anxiously when he came up to the court meeting again.

Unexpectedly, the person who answered this question was not Sir Yuan, who had already resigned as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but Prince Qing, the head of the Manchu nobles.

"No way! Attacking the embassy is equivalent to invasion. Nanhua is already aggressive. If they do something out of line, I'm afraid it will really be impossible to end it peacefully." Prince Qing waved his hand hurriedly to stop Zaifeng.

"What the old prince said is right. This prince is also anxious, but it is not a solution to drag it on like this. Nanhua's warships are just outside Tianjin Wei, and it is only a day's journey from the capital." Zaifeng was a little discouraged, and winked at Sir Yuan while speaking.

"Nanhua wants an explanation to prove that there is still room for negotiation, but the ambassador doesn't want to see us, probably because he wants us to show our sincerity." Lord Yuan frowned, then lowered his head and said in a muffled voice.

Zaifeng's face suddenly turned sour.

Sincerity? What is sincerity?

The cause of this incident was that Zaixun violated the contract. If the Qing Empire wanted to show its sincerity, compensation alone would not be enough. It had to deal with Zaixun first.

But Zaixun was his younger brother, and he was also the Minister of the Army, his right-hand man. Could he not protect him? If he couldn't even protect his younger brother, what could he use to fight the Han ministers?

Zaifeng didn't have much experience and was young. He was able to expand his power in a short period of time by relying on the imperial power, doing things without paying attention, and playing rogue.

If he compromised this time, he would be held up by the Han ministers. Playing within the rules, even if Zaifeng held the imperial power, he couldn't beat these people.

"Ahem! Is there any reply from Japan?" Prince Qing coughed and looked at Zaifeng, which was considered to be a relief for him.

There was another silence...

Mr. Yuan resigned as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the new Minister of Foreign Affairs was a radical young man who was the leader of Zaifeng. He took on all the diplomatic affairs - a mess.

"The Japanese took the benefits and are now playing cowards. They don't recognize anything that was agreed in advance. The British are more active. Jordan's secretary frequently visits the South China Embassy."

This was not said by Zaifeng, but by Mr. Yuan.

"Japanese?" Prince Qing looked at Zaifeng.

Zaifeng took a deep breath and nodded to Prince Qing.

"The Japanese found Zaixun about this matter. I don't know what they promised Zaixun, but they promised to help me withstand the pressure from South China."

Prince Qing shook his head in disappointment. Zaifeng disappointed him too much.

"Have the people from Nanhua been released?" asked Prince Qing.

"Yes! I asked him to release them as soon as Zaixun took action." Zaifeng replied hurriedly.

"Your Highness, Li Songqing mentioned this in the telegram to this old minister. The people from Nanhua are currently under house arrest in the military camp... Prince Ning is a royal relative after all, with a noble status and a high position of power." Lord Yuan said calmly.

"Regent, ask Prince Ning to release the people quickly, and by the way, put the blame on the Japanese, and make it known to everyone.

Gong Bao, Nanhua is angry now, how much do you think it will take to calm them down? At least don't use force, our dynasty can't afford it." Prince Qing glanced at Zaifeng, his eyes full of weirdness.

He knew that Zaifeng's ability was not very good, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

"Prince Qing, it was my dynasty that broke the contract first. It's easy to solve this problem normally. If we pay the penalty according to the contract, Nanhua will have no reason to pursue it. At most, we can throw a scapegoat out." Lord Yuan smiled.

"Breach of contract? How much? Let's get together. We can still get a few million." Prince Qing breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the money can solve the problem, it's fine.

"According to the investment contract of Hanyeping, we have to pay ten times the investment amount, which is more than 300 million taels of silver. If it is based on the second industrialization contract... then we can't afford it." Yuan Gongbao said in a relaxed tone.

Anyway, he is not accompanying her. He is only a military minister now. He is powerful, but he has no actual power. Nothing can be traced to him.

"300 million? We definitely can't afford it. It seems that we have to talk about it. This matter will be handed over to Lord Yuan. Let Zaixun take a break first. Lord Yuan will act as an army department." Prince Qing nodded and looked at Lord Yuan.

"I have already made an appointment with the British ambassador. If the Regent can persuade the Japanese again, I have a 60% chance of getting Nanhua to sit down and talk." Lord Yuan bowed his head slightly to hide the smile on his face.

"Okay! I will go to contact the Japanese myself. I will trouble Lord Yuan to contact the British."
