Li Hongzhang knew that he could not win this war, so he was committed to mediation, hoping to reduce losses.
The Prime Minister is currently entertaining a foreigner and cannot be disturbed.”
"Please go back and reply. We have an urgent matter to attend to and request an audience.”
"Yes, sir!"
"Yes, we came at the wrong time. The Prime Minister is currently hosting a banquet for the various countries 'ambassadors to request mediation. This time, when meeting the central hall, you should talk about what you should talk about. Don't talk about what you shouldn't talk about.
！”
"Yes, sir! Lord, this subordinate understands."
"Milords, the Prime Minister has sent a message. Please wait for me!”The herald said to the two of them.
"Lord Prime Minister, a call has come. Please wait for me!”
"When we meet the Prime Minister later, we must not be too hasty!”
"I understand. Thank you for passing on the message, Big Brother.”
"The Prime Minister is a far-sighted politician. He is striving for peace. This is a good strategy to revive your country. This way, not only can we avoid the loss of the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom's naval fleet, but we can also show tolerance to the United States and Russia.”
"You can even be sarcastic. Good! This person was overly concerned about the contents of the army. Who was he? Foreigners?" Deng Chang asked.
"A foreigner's cold secretary." The general ordered.
The two of them did not know that this man, Noda Hao, was a spy of the Sun Nation.
The two of them looked at the envoys of the various countries and toasted on the table, not mentioning the matter of mediation at all.
"Prime Minister, please take note. Mr. Mark is disregarding international law. If they withdraw their troops unfavorably, the Chang government will adopt an insulated method and send troops to interfere!”The Bear Country's envoy to the Ancestral Dragon Country said.
The envoy of Jili Country to Zulong Country said! " Yes, Minister's words are very admirable, but this does not conform to the solemn stance of a neutral country. The government of the Great Lucky Empire believes that we should mediate through an international alliance. Logically speaking, influencing the Sun Nation is the right policy. This way, the conflict between the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom and the Sun Nation can be avoided. We must not agree to peace talks with him!"
"Your Excellency, I'm afraid there's a reason for your magnanimity towards the Sun Nation!”
"This is a misunderstanding!" The Bear Nation's envoy to the Sun Nation said.
"But, but as far as I know, your government is very interested in the three northern provinces of the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom, but I don't believe these rumors. Said Wills, the envoy of Furry Bear Country to Ancestral Dragon Country.
"This is slander!" Said Pavchev, the envoy of Furry Bear Country to Ancestral Dragon Country.
"The two of you, the two of you! For the sake of the dispute between the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom and the Sun Nation, the two of them were angry. Red Stamp felt really bad. For the sake of Mr. Pavchev, sending troops to interfere was very feasible, and Mr. Wales 'mediation was also a good idea. All in all, once the Sun Nation and Ancestral Dragon Nation went to war, the interests of the various superpowers in the Ancestral Dragon Nation would be greatly affected.”Li Hongzhang planned to give it his all!
" I think that sending troops to interfere and unite to mediate is to put pressure on the Sun Nation. This is unfair to the Sun Nation. The government of the United States of America has already given the Sun Nation's government a piece of advice. The Sun Nation's government has stated that as long as the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom does not provoke the Sun Nation first, they will not fire the first shot. The Sun Nation will definitely not shoot. said Mark, the envoy of the United States government to the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom.
"The government of the Sun Nation also asked me to tell you that once there is a conflict at sea, the Sun Nation will lose a big business opportunity. This is a challenge that ignores international law. In this regard, the minister in charge of the Sun Nation's naval fleet will discipline the naval officers and soldiers as punishment! Sir, if the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom's naval fleet continues to act rashly and cause trouble, it will be difficult for us neutral countries to speak.”Ma Ke continued.
"He's really overbearing. He doesn't care about the face of our Ancestral Dragon Kingdom. These devils are all jackals of the same tribe!" Ding Chang couldn't help but say.
"Who is it?"
"Yes, sir! Mark it and wait in the second hall!"
"Ding Chang, why aren't you waiting in the Second Hall? Why are you making such a racket?”
"Biao Xia thought that it was the Lord of the Central Hall, so he called Biao Xia to come in and reply.”Ding Chang replied nervously.
"Mr. Mark, please tell the government of the Sun Nation that the Bangzi Nation is a vassal state of the Ancestral Dragon Nation. Why did you add a tribute? Dear Mr. Mark, could it be that the Ancestral Dragon Nation is acting rashly to defend its own country? Could it be that the naval fleet of the Ancestral Dragon Nation went out to sea to resist the invasion of the Sun Nation's army? Could it be that the Japanese pirates 'despicable sneak attack without declaring war and instead accused the Ancestral Dragon Nation of being in the wrong? Could it be that we can only be trampled upon and wait for death? You are too easy to talk to. You are simply twisting the truth." Nonsense!"
"Prime Minister, we really hope that the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom and the Sun Kingdom can reconcile. However, your subordinates are so eager to fight. We can only express our regret! I'm sorry! Goodbye!" Ma Ke walked out first.
The envoys also apologized to Li Hongzhang one by one and then walked out of the hall. The various countries had always maintained a common stance on the issue of the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom, and had already achieved the goal of nibbling away at this great empire.
"You're bringing disaster to the country and the people. You're offending your superiors and causing trouble.”Li Hongzhang said in exasperation. It was not easy for him to get the envoys of the various countries to come here for a meal to discuss how to mediate the war between the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom and the Sun Nation. This guy was really good. After being scolded by him, the envoys of the various countries could not put down their pride and left.
"Prime Minister, on the surface, the various countries are neutral and mediating, but in fact, they are treating the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom like a pig and sheep to be slaughtered and divided up our land. We've given in this time, but what will he do next time?”Ding Chang said.
"Nonsense. You are ignorant and incompetent. What do you know about foreign affairs and diplomacy? Now, only by unanimously mediating can we maintain peace.”
"Ding Chang is proud and has a strong will to fight against the Sun Nation's navy. If I have offended you, please, Prime Minister. Considering that I have outstanding military achievements and outstanding talent, I am willing to wear a flower feather and guarantee that I will not investigate!”The general admired General Ding Chang's actions and was willing to vouch for him.
If he had come to Tianjin in Weihai, it would have been a good idea. Now that the enemy was in front of them, the officers and soldiers of the Zulong Kingdom's naval fleet, Wan Mingzhe, who had specially picked people from the Tang Dynasty and Weihai to write letters, asked the court to declare war on the Japanese pirates.”
"Bastard! Instigating the commoners like this was encouraging them to rebel. How many lives did you have to lose?”Li Hongzhang said in exasperation. This subordinate was really…preposterous!
"Report…"
"Milord, the Emperor has already issued an edict for Li Hongzhang to receive it.
The navy minister of Zulong Kingdom, Li Hongzhang, and the small Sun Kingdom dared to invade the Celestial Empire. In order to punish them, Li Hongzhang was the commander of this battle. Wei Hai was inspecting the navy fleet and preparing to fight. If they were not worried and missed the opportunity, as the commander of these armies, they would definitely ask Li Hongzhang for his crimes.
