1890 King of Southeast Asia

Unexpectedly, after Liu Yiming took the initiative to send a telegram to William II, Germany agreed to return the concession area very straightforwardly and showed great interest in Nanhua's proposal.

On November 15, after paying part of the monetary compensation, Nanhua Empire and Germany, Austria and Belgium jointly issued a statement. At this point, there was only one Japan left in the Tianjin Concession...

This is certainly not an efficiency that can be exchanged for the authorization of synthetic ammonia technology. In fact, Germany is troubled by the environment it is in.

Since the signing of the sincere agreement between Britain and France, Germany has begun to seek a relaxed diplomatic environment.

Germany hopes to ease relations with Britain.

In August 1909, on the eve of Nanhua's attack on the Qing Empire, Germany and Britain began the first round of negotiations.

This negotiation is undoubtedly meaningless.

Britain hopes that Germany can control the scale of naval development. In exchange, Britain can make certain concessions on colonial issues.

What is Germany's response? Germany was willing to change the plan of building four battleships per year to three. In exchange, Germany hoped that Britain would build no more than four battleships per year and demanded:

Conclude a neutrality treaty, and when one of the contracting parties launched a war against a third party, the other party would remain neutral.

If Britain agreed, Britain would lose its overwhelming naval advantage in the near future, and it would also be able to dismantle the Anglo-French entente supported by the sincere agreement, killing two birds with one stone.

It can only be said that the ugly is beautiful, Britain rejected the proposal without hesitation, and the negotiations broke down.

Germany also tried to contact the Russians and almost succeeded.

After the Anglo-Russian agreement was signed, the two sides divided the sphere of influence in Central Asia, and the Allied Powers were finally established.

But at this time, Britain and Russia did not have a military alliance treaty, and the cunning British did not have to bear any obligations, and the existence of the Franco-Russian alliance led to Russia's need to bear the obligation of anti-Germany.

Germany fully respected Russia's sphere of influence, made concessions, eased the contradictions between the two sides, and the two sides even reached a partial agreement, including Russia's respect for Germany's right to build railways in the Ottoman Empire.

But man proposes, God disposes. From 1908 to 1909, the Young Turks launched the Young Turks Revolution, which triggered the Bosnia Crisis.

In the chaos, the Austro-Hungarian Empire took the opportunity to annex Bosnia and Herzegovina, which aroused strong dissatisfaction from Russia. The two sides were in a military confrontation, and Germany stood on the side of Austria-Hungary.

Even Germany and France signed the Treaty of Casablanca, and the Moroccan crisis eased - this is why Britain wanted to see France lose face so much.

The current international situation is not friendly to Germany, so Germany once again set its sights on Nanhua, which has influence in the Middle East and controls the Persian Gulf region.

"Is this appropriate?" Xu Hui put down the documents and looked at Liu Yiming, wanting to hear Liu Yiming's explanation.

"From various perspectives at the moment, this is a sure-win business. Besides, it's not that we don't have a corresponding plan, but we just don't have the money to carry it out."

"Look, someone is willing to pay, why not do it?" Liu Yiming smiled.

"Then, how should we explain this to Britain and France? After all, Britain has a strong desire and does not want Germany to extend its influence too far." Xu Hui was actually very tempted, but considering the impact...

"Britain and France? No need to explain too much, isn't there a ready-made reason?" Liu Yiming smiled, very happily, and took out two joint statements while smiling.

"Japan?" Xu Hui was stunned, then smiled.

"Then, the negotiation of the Baghdad Railway Joint Plan must be done quickly, and Britain and France cannot be given a chance to react." Xu Hui picked up the document again and said with interest.

"Establish a Baghdad Railway Company, and then find someone at the embassy in Germany to sign as a representative, and finalize the contract first."

This document is part of Germany's Berlin-Baghdad Railway Plan, from the Ottoman Empire to Baghdad.

Germany proposed to build this railway in a cooperative way, with Germany providing funds and Nanhua providing land, and both parties holding 50% of the shares, and establishing a joint-stock company for daily operations.

After 20 years of operation, the German shares of the Iraqi section will be unconditionally handed over to South China. During this period, the railway shares cannot be bought, sold, donated, or changed in ownership.

"Three days, three days later, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will send a diplomatic note to Japan to discuss the issue of the Japanese concession in Tianjin."

"At the same time, the Army and Navy will buy the waters of the Luzon Islands for large-scale military exercises, which should be enough to attract attention."

South China is threatening, and Britain will definitely take sides. After all, Japan is a very useful dog.

However, in this way, the South German Baghdad Railway Plan has become South China's revenge on Britain's "inaction", and everything is justified.

Because Iraq has become a part of South China, Germany has changed its original plan and changed the construction of the railway line in Iraq to joint construction, but due to strong opposition from Britain and France, it has not been fruitful.

This time, Germany made a major strategic concession. Not only did it contribute money and effort for short-term operating rights, it also gave up the territory along the railway, making the railway a simple transportation line.

Its purpose is to open up Germany's land oil supply line.

If nothing unexpected happens, Germany wants to start a war within ten years of the opening of the railway.

…………

On November 9, Nanhua and Japan discussed the concession issue again, and Japan again refused to return the concession.

"You want Ryukyu, you have a big appetite." Liu Yiming sneered and crumpled the document into a ball.

Of course, Japan can't say "I won't pay back ~", that is immature.

Instead, it was proposed that Japan and the Tianjin Guild Concession made "the Japanese Land Ryukyu Islands occupied by South China."

The total area of ​​the Ryukyu Islands covers a total of 3,600 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 5,500 yen per square kilometer, with an average of three seven yen per mu, which is equivalent to one piece of southern coin.

The price of light land is low, and it is not considered a territorial sea, let alone Nanhua's facilities built on the island.

Another thing that looks ugly.

"If it hadn't recognized a good dad, I would raise it on the spot." Zhao Jiaxing said angrily.

"Don't be impatient, there will be a chance." Liu Yiming did not blame Zhao Jiaxing, but encouraged him in disguise. Everyone at the scene looked at each other.

"Military exercises, you can start, remember to take care of the audience." Liu Yiming put on a sun hat, threw various documents on the table, and started to catch people.

The next few days will be very lively.

"Your Majesty, Minister Jiang is here." Before Liu Yiming walked out, Secretary Wang appeared mysteriously.

"Arrange him to the reception room, I will pass by." Liu Yiming sighed and put down the shade cap.

Nympho

"His Majesty, Lin Pingzhi sent a telegram from the three towns." Jiang Wang sat in the reception room for two minutes, and Liu Yiming arrived.

"What's the matter?" Liu Yiming took the telegram.

"Sun Zaizhi wants to see you, it is expected to arrive in Shanghai tomorrow, and then he will take a airship from Shanghai to Chang'an." Jiang Wang replied.

"Why do he see me?" Liu Yiming had a hunch in his heart, and

Think about it, and said to Jiang Wang:

"This matter is confidential. I will go to Bali this afternoon.

"Check out the archives of youth cadres, and choose 10,000 20 to thirty -five years old, with a firm will, a serious work, and fully aware of social governance and political work."

"Um ... 10,000 people?" Jiang Wang was dull.

"Yes, 10,000 people must be absolutely reliable. People who can withstand temptation!" Liu Yiming nodded.

Jiang Wang left with his heart and left.

None of them are idiots. Nanhua has been transporting "excellent talents" to the Youth Empire, and Sun Zaizhi hosted the secret activities.

Suddenly mentioning that he wanted to check the file, he could probably guess what it was for.

But 10,000 people have to be young, and they must be firm and reliable. This is an excellent young man worth training! He can already imagine that the cabinet looks at him.

"23 provinces, 218 government, 77 Zhili Prefecture, 127 Stefshop, 70 Zhili Hall, 72 San Hall, and 1353 counties. A total of 1940 place names in the political district, 10,000 people can put up the shelf.

After the incident, let them recruit outstanding young people from various places and fill them into the government, which can not only find high -quality labor, but also reduce resistance, achieve rapid transition, and perfect. "Liu Yiming murmured to himself ...

..............

From November 10th, Nanhua has conducted a seven -day large -scale military exercise.

A total of four battleships and cruisers were dispatched, with more than 100 other battleships, three brigades of the Marine Corps, and two divisions of the Army.

The exercise items include naval confrontation, strategic decisive battles, blocking breaks, landing and fighting, etc., which are very targeted.

On the twelfth, the performance of Nanhua's eagerness caused Britain to have great dissatisfaction.

On the one hand, dissatisfaction with Nanhua's increasingly radical performance, on the other hand, it is greatly dissatisfied with Japan's performance.

Japan decided to respond to South China with the same large -scale exercise without knowing the British.

Isn't this fueling on the fire? Intersection

"Counselor, don't you think that this is unreasonable to Nanhua? Japan is just protecting its own interests." Shoutaro Shousumi looked at Charles in the small village.

It's not good to make a dog here, and you can't dare to express it happily.

"The minister, I just conveyed the opinions of London. We believe that this incident can rely on negotiations to solve the problem without having to resort to force." Charle Prove was slightly impatient.

The British Ambassador to Japan just stepped down, and the new ambassador was still on vacation in Singapore to avoid the cold, so that he had to go to the horse.

He is also cold!

"Japan just wants to pay the land with the land and take it back to Japan's original land." Sugar Sugaro Shousura was pinched under the table.

"The Minister, of course, the British supports the legitimate rights and interests of your country. We just advise your country and not to use it. Once the war, your country may be in disadvantages and it is better to accumulate power."

This is very interesting. On the one hand, it acknowledges Japan's statement about Ryukyu, and on the other hand, it means that I do not support you to do it, and finally make the savings power.

"Well, I will tell ... persuade our prime minister." Shoutaro, a village, vomited.

Japan knows that Britain will not support them to cause trouble, and it is impossible to win if Britain's support of Japan.

But it knows that Britain needs Japan to restrain South China and Russia.

If the Japanese army responded to South China, Britain would definitely stop before the outbreak of the war. At that time, Japan would not only save face, express a tough attitude, and gain more benefits.

However, the premise is that the United Kingdom does not know these, otherwise where does the interest come from?

The British suppressing South China will definitely be compensated, otherwise what should South China fall to Germany?

And this compensation will definitely not be paid by Japan, it can only be paid by Britain itself or by someone else... It can't be done, anyway, it's none of Japan's business.

Japan can get both face and money.

Unfortunately, it has been seen through. If it insists on going its own way at this time, Britain's attitude is uncertain.

…

"The Japanese government has agreed to return the concession in consideration of the peace situation in East Asia." Xiaosong signed the statement with frustration.

"Considering the special situation of Tianjin, we can make some concessions to residents of various countries within this year. Starting next year, Tianjin will implement unified laws and policies with Nanhua.

All countries should go to the city hall as soon as possible to apply for visas, business licenses, fire and health certificates, replace land ownership certificates, correct building information, etc...."

"The successful resolution of the Tianjin issue is inseparable from the help of various countries. It has left such a perfect solution for the world. Let's toast to world peace..."

Lin Anmin drank the wine in his hand...
