Beiping.
The winter snow covered it.
Winter was the most torturous in troubled times.
On both sides of the street, there were refugees who starved to death and froze to death in the alleys every day. The corpses were transported out by carts.
It had been half a month since the Japanese announced their attack on Fengtian.
The Devil Empire's Tianhuang was very angry that Fengtian still wanted to resist.
However, this was also a way for them to find a handle to use against the Republic of China.
Therefore, Old Yuan was very worried.
It was originally a happy thing for the devils to be bombed in Lushun. The devils should not have kept their eyes on the Republic of China.
However, who knew that he would directly turn around and say that the murderer was Feng Jun.
Heaven and earth could tell. How could Old Yuan not know how powerful Feng Jun was?
However, it was a rainy night.
The Japanese had informed him that they were about to send a delegation.
After all, the other party was a big shot.
Old Yuan could only arrange for someone to welcome them.
In the headquarters meeting room.
Before the devils arrived, Old Yuan had already gathered Xu Changchang, Zhang Baoqi, Duan Qirui, and a few others for an urgent discussion.
At the meeting, Xu Changchang stomped his feet in anger."This time, the Japanese are definitely not friendly. They probably want to talk about Lushun.”
"He's actually so shameless. He doesn't even care about his face and wants to frame our Beiyang!”
Zhang Baoqi sighed and said," Sigh, I thought that since the Republic of China was established, the devils should treat us as equals. I didn't expect them to treat us like pigs and dogs!”
Old Yuan frowned and said sternly.
"I want to hear your schemes, not to hear you complain like a resentful woman!”
Duan Qirui immediately said.
"According to my investigation, the Japanese have already gone to Fengtian to talk to Zhang Zuolin, but for some reason, they didn't come to any conclusion. Moreover, they saw Russians coming in and out that day!”
Old Yuan narrowed his eyes and his face darkened."It must be that the Japanese want to talk to Zhang Xiaozi about compensation. He wants to extort a sum of money from Fengtian and then come here to extort a sum of money from me!”
Duan Qirui lowered his head so that no one could see the expression on his face.
He said softly to Old Yuan,"President…about the matter of becoming an emperor?”
Hearing this, Old Yuan took a deep breath.
"Now that the Japanese are staring at me, there's nothing I can do. The matter of claiming the throne will probably have to be delayed for a while.”
As he spoke, one could hear the sigh in his words.
Old Yuan grew up in the Qing Dynasty and rose up in troubled times.
He had always had a desire to be an emperor.
However, the previous Qing Dynasty was corrupt and incompetent, and everyone in Yan Huang was extremely disappointed in the imperial system.
Due to the pressure, after stealing the Republic of China, he could only temporarily take the position of CEO.
However, in the past two years, the House of Representatives and Senate of the Republic of China had restrained each other, which made him extremely annoyed.
This also made him yearn for the imperial system even more.
However, at least he still had his brain. He knew that the Republic of China was facing internal and external problems, and it was not easy to become the emperor.
However…
Today…the devils came prepared.
Before he came to negotiate, he already knew what Old Yuan was thinking.
Therefore, in today's negotiations, the Japanese basically had Old Yuan under their thumb.
……
At the meeting, the devil offered to support Old Yuan as the emperor.
He forced Old Yuan to agree to a series of conditions.
Yamashita Uno: " Mr. President Yuan, our empire sincerely supports you in becoming the emperor, but you must sign these 21 contracts!”
Old Yuan looked at the list of conditions and frowned.
Zhang Baoqi slammed the table and stood up." We will try our best to compromise on the conditions. However, we can't do what we can't do. It's impossible!" I hope you won't push your luck!"
One had to know the various agreements contained in these 21 terms.
It was simply appalling!
They simply treated them like pigs and dogs!
Just one of them was to exercise all the rights and interests of the former Qing Dynasty.
One of them was that all the people of the Guizi Empire must exercise their authority in Yan Huang!
One of them was to divide Fengtian!
There were a total of twenty-one of these appalling agreements.
Yamashita Uno crossed his arms, a mocking smile on his face."President Yuan, I think you should be the one to make the decision in the Republic of China, right?”
Before they came, the Japanese intelligence network had already investigated Old Yuan's thoughts.
It was an extraordinary desire for the imperial system.
Old Yuan's expression flickered as he looked at the treaty.
After a long silence, he suddenly said,""If I really agree, is your empire sure that I can become an emperor?”
Hearing this, Zhang Baoqi was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair.
"President, you can't sign this!"
He wanted to stop him, but Old Yuan had already waved his hand and ordered the guards to take him away.
Yamashita Uno smiled when he saw this scene.
"Mr. President Yuan, our empire will definitely keep our promise!”
"If you need anything, you can tell us. Our empire can help you achieve it.”
At this point, he suddenly changed the topic.
"As for the bandits in Fengtian, our empire has made up our mind to help you eliminate them. I hope that President Yuan can understand the big picture and not send more troops to Fengtian. Otherwise, it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings!”
As he spoke, he seemed to have given Feng Tian the death penalty.
Old Yuan paused for a moment and let out a deep breath. He seemed to have aged a few years.
"Alright, I promise you."
Yamashita Uno smiled and extended his hand.
"I hope that our two empires will cooperate happily and create the Greater East Asia Republic together.”
"Gonghe, heh…"
"The exact time of the contract will be after Fengtian falls.”
The ghost looked at his watch and said.
"During this period of time, President Yuan can rest assured and become the emperor!”
"Under the Empire's iron cavalry, the Republic of China will soon become an imperial system!”
……
The next day.
The Beiping headquarters announced the contract signed with the Guizi Empire.
The contents of the contract caused an uproar in Yan Huang.
