Beiyang reactionaries

All of a sudden.

China's demands are too much, which makes Japan angry.But they can't help it.Now they need disaster relief as soon as possible, and withdraw the troops trapped in the northeast as soon as possible.

Because Duan Xun did what he said.

Talk and fight.

Japan has already shown the greatest sincerity, but Duan Xun in the northeast has no intention of stopping the war at all.China's air force and artillery units, the bombing continues to bomb, and the bombardment continues to bombard.

Zhang Zuolin went too far.

In order to work hard and show off, his troops kept attacking Anton's Japanese troops.This made the Japanese army very aggrieved.After this battle with Duan Xun, the Japanese army has admitted that Duan Xun's army is not bad.

No matter in terms of training, weapons and equipment, they can be compared with the Japanese army.But Japan looked down on Zhang Zuolin's troops.

Not to mention Zhang Zuolin's old army, even the new army created by Zhang Zuolin, Japan also looks down on it.

why?

Because Zhang Zuolin's new army was also trained by Japanese officers.No one knows their situation better than the Japanese.However, during the contact with Zhang Zuolin's troops, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses.

It's not that the Japanese army is not brave.

It was because the Japanese army began to lack ammunition and logistical supplies.For the sake of performance, Zhang Zuolin misused the ammunition in stock.

As a result, the Japanese army suffered serious losses.

Casualties are getting worse.Japan has discovered a huge problem.That is, as our troops are trapped in the Northeast battlefield, the casualties are increasing, and the Korean peninsula is becoming more and more unstable.

This is what Japan is most wary of.

Keeping the Korean peninsula, they can make a comeback at any time.But once even the Korean Peninsula is lost, then Japan will really lose everything.It will be very difficult to start again in the future.

So Japan is in a hurry.

Similar terms can only be agreed in full.

"Prime Minister, has Japan agreed to these conditions?"

"Duke Liang (Wang Chonghui), Chief Yan (Yan Shichao), you two are the main representatives of this negotiation, let's talk about it."

Duan Xun looked at Wang Chonghui and Yan Shichao.

During this negotiation with Japan, Duan Xun once again appointed Wang Chonghui as the chief negotiator, and Yan Shichao as the deputy representative.These two days are the two of them negotiating with Japan.

Due to the urgency of time, this negotiation will be discussed for more than ten hours a day, and various terms will be formulated as soon as possible.

"Director Yan is the chief minister of foreign affairs, so let Chief Yan speak."

Wang Chonghui pushed Yan Shichao.

Yan Shichao saw Wang Chonghui encouraging him, so he immediately said excitedly: "Prime Minister, everyone, this treaty is not a plan formulated by us unilaterally, but a grassroots agreement after reaching an agreement with Japan after more than 30 hours of negotiations in the past two days. .Now only the signature is left, as long as the two parties sign, the contract will come into force.”

Yan Shichao's voice was even trembling.

Back then, Yan Shichao led troops to recover Tangnu Wulianghai, but that was the opportunity of the Russian Civil War, taking advantage of the fact that Tangnu Wulianghai did not have many troops at all.

But this time is different.

As long as this contract is signed, China will basically take back all of Japan's privileges in China.

China won.

This representation means far more than anything.

"well."

"Great."

Many of the current cabinet chiefs are over 40 years old.Even the younger chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Jiang Hongyu, is 40 years old, and the chief of the police department, You Min, is also 39 years old.The two of them are relatively young, and Duan Xun is a classmate of Baoding Military Academy.

Except for these few people, many of the others are almost 50 years old, and some are even over 50 years old.

Many of them have experienced the Sino-Japanese War.The shock back then was absolutely beyond anything else.Japan, which has always been looked down upon, has actually defeated the "Heavenly Kingdom".This shock also contributed to the climax of staying in Japan later.

Everyone wants to see how Japan can defeat the Qing Dynasty.

The shame of that year is still vivid.

But today I won, and I was able to sign such a contract.

Some even burst into tears.

It's not easy.

"Now I would like to ask everyone what you think about this contract. Because the final signature requires the approval of our cabinet and the approval of the provisional Senate. So I want to listen to the opinions of our cabinet chiefs."

Duan Xun spoke.

The reason why the enlarged cabinet meeting is held is to let everyone share the joy together.

It is to further enhance their prestige.Duan Xun used this kind of meeting to tell these people that under my leadership, Japan will also make concessions.

"Prime Minister, there is no problem with this contract."

"Yes."

"Prime Minister, this contract is great."

How can everyone object.

If Duan Xun hadn't come up with this contract, many of them couldn't believe that China could still get so many things.Not to mention anything else, take back the Kanto State, take back the Northeast Railway, and take back the concession.

Calculating the economic accounts, it is very surprising.

Every year, China's finances give the Japanese amazing interest because China borrows too much from Japan.There are loans from Yuan Shikai, loans from Duan Qirui, and loans from Duan Xun.The total amount adds up to more than one billion silver dollars.The annual interest alone is a financial headache.But as soon as this treaty is signed, China's loan money to Japan will be cut in half. The 6 million silver dollars are wiped out in this way, and tens of millions of interest can be left for the national treasury a year.

What a wonderful thing.

And as long as the 6 million is erased, then several important steel factories in China, such as Hanyeping Company, do not need to continue to provide Japan with low-priced iron ore and low-priced pig iron.

Of course, it's not just Hanyeping Company.

Including the Handan Iron and Steel Works in Zhili and the Tangshan Iron and Steel Works, which were established with Japanese loans.The Hanyang Iron Works of Hehan Yeping Company and the Chongqing Iron and Steel Works in Sichuan are currently the largest steel plants in China.

But because they all use Japanese loans, they need to provide Japan with low-priced iron ore, pig iron, etc.

If 6 million is wiped out, then the loans of these steel factories will be wiped out directly, and there will be no need to provide Japan with cheap iron ore and pig iron in the future.Don't know how much money these steel mills have saved.
