Beiyang reactionaries

When Lien Zhan loses in a row, people's hearts will fall to the bottom.They will start to doubt this and that, and they will think that the great powers are too powerful and it is impossible for China to defeat them.They even think that Chinese culture is the reason why China is backward.

That's why there are calls for the abolition of Chinese characters, traditional Chinese medicine, and Chinese culture in the Chinese academic circles.And this call is not small.The reason is that China is too backward and is always bullied.

This is not the case with the army.

Because of the consecutive defeats, many generals have not yet fought, and they are already afraid.They dare not challenge the great powers, because they are afraid of the great powers from the bottom of their hearts.

This is not only true of the people, but too many battles have been defeated, and so is the morale of the army.

But the same.

Once you win and win, the hearts of the people will go to the other extreme instead.They will think that any opponent can be defeated.The big powers are nothing more than that, thinking that China is strong enough that China can not be afraid of any powerful country.They even asked the Chinese government not to make the slightest concession, and asked the Chinese government not to suffer a little loss.As long as this is the case, they will regard it as weakness.

The current Chinese people's hearts and military hearts are shaking between these two extremes.

This is especially true for young students.

too excited.

Students all over the country began to celebrate the signing of the "Sino-Japanese Treaty of Nanjing", and even many student groups became more and more extreme.The foreigners in some major cities feel the deepest.

In the past, those Chinese people looked at them with low eyebrows, but now the Chinese people obviously hold out their chests.Even foreigners in some places are rejected by the Chinese.

There were also some mobs.

When Duan Xun took back the Japanese Concession in Tianjin, his public speech made domestic public opinion reach a peak state.Domestic nationalist sentiment is continuing to grow.

Now major newspapers across the country are reprinting Duan Xun's public speech in Tianjin.

Duan Xun does not want China's people's sentiments to go to extremes, but at this stage Duan Xun needs to let the people's sentiments reach a certain height and change the sluggish public sentiments.

Then lower this public opinion.

but not now.

"Sir, your choice is wrong."

Shanghai.

The signing of the "Sino-Japanese Nanjing Treaty" caught many powers by surprise.Because they never thought that Japan would retreat so cleanly this time.

They basically spit out all the interests they have swallowed up in China for decades.

All major powers are considering how to deal with the rising China now.The setback of Japan, the overlord of the Far East, is a cause for celebration.

But China, a big country showing its fangs again, is not what they hoped for.

Especially under the leadership of Duan Xun, Chinese nationalism is getting higher and higher.Has greatly affected the interests of the great powers.

British Embassy in Shanghai.

Marklei, the British ambassador to China, also came to Shanghai.Not only Ma Kelei, British ambassadors from all over China came to Shanghai.

They all have to discuss the current situation, and then give London a detailed report, hoping that London will come up with an attitude.But after coming to Shanghai, everyone discovered it.The atmosphere in Shanghai is very hot.

Same as Tianjin.

Even Shanghai is no worse than Tianjin.

Those excited Chinese students gave lectures not only outside, but also inside the concession, and there were crowds of people celebrating everywhere.If it was the former French Concession or the Public Concession, the police would have dispersed these crowds long ago.

But who would dare at this time?

Chinese nationalism is currently at its peak.If the police in the concession dare to disperse these people, these people can occupy the concession.Under the current situation, all the great powers don't want to suffer bad luck.

All of them are very honest.

At the British embassy in Shanghai, there were a lot of students celebrating at the entrance.Of course, after the celebration is over, we must denounce imperialism, mainly Britain.

In the midst of such noise, the British diplomats in China sat together for a meeting.Listening to the cheers and denunciations outside, the British ambassador to Chongqing, Actor Wood, accused Ma Kelei.

"Then what do you mean?"

"Sir, I told you earlier. Duan Xun is completely different from the previous Chinese bureaucrats. He is a very tough person. You don't listen, but you want to make an opinion that is impossible. How can it be possible to succeed in jointly managing China? .It is not 100 years ago now. Your proposal greatly angered the Chinese government and Duan Xun. What is the result? The result is that Duan Xun spread all his anger on us, causing us to suffer heavy losses in China .”

Actor Wood directly complained about Mack class.

Not giving face at all.

Make Ma Kele look ugly.

This time, because of Mark's proposal, the United Kingdom has received a targeted blow in China.Those businessmen in the UK were very dissatisfied with Ma Kelei. They all thought that Ma Kelei had made a wrong statement, especially when China and Japan were at war, Ma Kelei made a move to anger the Chinese.

what's the result.

The result is China's anger, from the official to the private, all directed at British businessmen and British products.Burning of British goods and opposition to British merchants occurred in many cities.The British businessman, who suffered heavy losses, sued Ma Kelei directly to London.

Although London is very dissatisfied with China's daring to resist, it is even more dissatisfied with Marks.

Because this seriously affected the interests of Britain in China.The current situation is that if the UK does not respond, it will greatly damage the prestige of the UK.

But to react?

How to do it.

It is impossible to send troops to fight China.How can the UK now have the strength to send 10,000+ troops, and hundreds of thousands of troops to the Far East.

"Even after 100 years, China is still nothing in front of the empire."

Mike snorted coldly.

who are we?

We are the ambassadors of the British Empire in China, we are the representatives of the British Empire in China, and we are the diplomats of the "Empire on which the sun never sets".China is nothing compared to our British Empire.

Isn't it just a piece of shit luck, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Great Earthquake in Japan to win once.

Is the empire still afraid that they will fail?

"Sir, this kind of thinking of yours is no longer suitable for the current situation in China. You have been in China for a while, don't you find that there are many differences in China now? China now has a powerful regime , has millions of fully armed army troops, and their own weapons are almost self-sufficient. Didn’t you see how many cannons China used in this Sino-Japanese War? On the Northeast battlefield, the information we got Yes, China has more than 600 heavy artillery and infantry artillery, and even more mortars. Sir, think about it, more than 600 cannons. How many cannons will the Chinese army have in the country now? One thousand, two thousand , or [-], or even more. And China currently has its own military factories, making weapons and cannons all the time. This is a big country with a population of [-] million, and its strength is far from what we used to know That China. We need to change our strategy."

"You mean to make us bow our heads to China?"

Mike was furious.

Bow down?

Although China is not a British colony, Britain has been rampant in China since the Opium War began.Is it necessary to bow to China now?
