Our army is finished?
This was the thought in the minds of the leaders of the European countries and the world's strongest countries in this era.
This time, Chen Ling didn't play the One Wave Style, so all the countries were informed of the outcome of the war.
The 600,000 strong army was gone just like that?
More than twenty battleships and hundreds of large ships were also captured by the enemy.
Not only were the leaders of the various countries in disbelief, but even the people of the various countries were also dumbfounded.
Impossible?
The army of the British Empire will never lose?
This must be a dream. The news that came back was inaccurate, inaccurate…Hahaha, the British Empire is invincible!
She went crazy again and pulled him down.
Although the news they received was unbelievable, they were not thinking about whether they could accept the outcome. Instead, they were thinking about the aftermath.
The countries in Europe were not China.
Soldiers died on the battlefield.
If one or two of them died, it would be fine even if it was 1,000 or 2,000.
No one would be able to take the loss of hundreds of thousands of people at once.
How to calm the boiling resentment of the people and how to redeem the captured soldiers were the most important problems now.
Therefore, the various countries conducted an emergency consultation and then called their envoys in the Far East or the higher-ups of the colonies to rush to the Chinese Empire as soon as possible to negotiate with Chen Ling.
By the time Chen Ling returned to the capital after three days of sightseeing, the envoys of the various countries had already begun negotiations with Wu Pingquan.
"Those foreigners came quite quickly. What did they talk to you about these past few days?”Chen Ling looked at Wu Pingquan and said.
After Chen Ling returned to the palace, Wu Pingquan came to report the situation to him.
"Your Majesty, these are the terms of the Eight Nation Alliance.”
Wu Pingquan quickly took out a truce agreement and handed it to Chen Ling.
Chen Ling looked at the armistice agreement with the seals of the eight governments and smiled disdainfully.
If they couldn't fight, they would call for a truce. Trash.
However, after Chen Ling took a look at the terms on it, he did not turn the page and threw the armistice agreement away.
These people were probably still asleep.
If he lost, he would demand compensation and release the captives unconditionally.
It was as if the Chinese Empire had been completely dominated by the Qing government.
"Wu Pingquan, go tell those people that if the Chinese Empire doesn't stop fighting, we will continue to fight.”Chen Ling said unhappily.
"Ah…Your Majesty, if we continue to fight, what about our army?”Wu Pingquan was a little dumbfounded.
Although he knew that the Empire's army had defeated the allied forces of the various countries, he heard that he had also suffered great losses.
If they continued to fight, would it work?
"Don't worry, the Empire's army didn't suffer any losses. Just tell them that, and remember to be tough.”Chen Ling waved his hand and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
They definitely couldn't fight anymore.
Even if Chen Ling wanted to fight, the western powers were not stupid enough to fight.
The reason why such a clause was proposed was because the government was incompetent and gave them the impression that the Chinese were easy to bully.
Anyway, it didn't cost money to make a clause. He could give it a try.
What if the Chinese Empire was as brainless as the Manchu Empire? Wouldn't that be a huge profit?
Wu Pingquan followed Chen Ling's instructions and chased all the envoys out of the capital.
……
At night, Chen Ling rested in the garden of Yuanmingyuan.
The little girl Chun Xing sat in Chen Ling's living room and massaged his shoulders.
"Young Master, are you in a bad mood?"
Chun Xing asked softly when she saw Chen Ling frowning.
In the entire capital, she was the only one who dared to call Chen Ling Young Master.
This was also Chen Ling's special order. If everyone called him Your Majesty, even the little girl called him Emperor, then it would be meaningless.
"Not really. I just feel that there's still a long way to go.”Chen Ling said indifferently.
In fact, after defeating the allied forces of the western powers, as long as he did not launch an attack, no one would dare to attack the Chinese Empire.
Therefore, he could develop the country well. He could develop education, the economy, industry, and infrastructure.
However, Wu Pingquan's performance today made Chen Ling realize a problem. The weakness accumulated over the past 200 years could not be changed in a short period of time.
Wu Pingquan was a talent.
He was definitely a talent. The system's evaluation was a purple talent.
Even so, a talent who was good at internal affairs and diplomacy still had problems dealing with the problems of the western powers.
If it was in the modern era, it was needless to say that they would win the war.
If the M Nation dared to propose such a clause after suffering some losses in the economic war, they didn't need the higher-ups to say anything.
The diplomat dared to throw this treaty in the face of the other party's ambassador.
But now, they had won the war, destroyed the enemy, and captured the enemy.
However, the envoys of the western powers had come and brought out such an insulting treaty.
Wu Pingquan actually endured it and waited for Chen Ling to return before letting him decide.
You might say that the imperial power was supreme, but Wu Pingquan did not dare to make a decision.
But on the other hand, it also showed that Wu Pingquan was not confident enough.
He was not afraid of losing his official position. He was afraid that his actions would bring harm to the Chinese Empire.
Because in his mind, even if they won, the losses would definitely be heavy.
This was the subtle influence of being weak for many years.
"Change, change in all aspects.”Chen Ling said in his heart.
The next day, Chen Ling did not think about negotiating with the western countries. After the court session, he began to investigate the education situation in the areas under the jurisdiction of the Chinese Empire.
Eh…
The Capital University had been established.
