"On behalf of Her Majesty the Queen and Whitehall, I would like to thank you for your support. //Baidu search to see the latest chapter//"
Regarding the promise made by Liu Chang, Xia Keli felt that this was one of the biggest gains in his more than one year ambassadorial career, so he quickly and tentatively mentioned the Russian issue of domestic concern: "But I must explain that if your country If we send troops to intervene, I'm afraid the war against Russia will not be sustainable, right? I think the Treaty of Yaksa is a reasonable dividing line."
Liu Chang also said very happily: "Yes, the Treaty of Yaksa is a reasonable national boundary, but it is based on the condition of equality of power. Does the current Russian Empire still have such qualifications? He is now even with Ukraine We can¡¯t even save it, let alone the Ural Mountains. You should know that current news reports about the war with Russia don¡¯t even make the front pages of newspapers.¡±
Yes, the war with Russia has become a silent war. After receiving the assistance of new equipment, the Chinese military expenditures are only millions of silver dollars every month, but every time they can always concentrate more The troops dealt a devastating blow to the Russian settlements, just like the later Tubo war against the Tang Dynasty. If the Tang Dynasty concentrated all its resources, it was very likely to inflict a fatal blow to Tubo. However, in history, the Tang Dynasty could only take one step Being beaten step by step, the sacred territory is being lost step by step.
Now the Russian Empire is also in a passive position in the east. After losing local resource support, they can't even buy a barrel of gunpowder, not to mention that the entire coast has been blocked by the Chinese. Many frontiers once conquered by Russia The nation has now become the lackeys of the Chinese, and they have vented their suppression on the Russians over the past hundreds of years.
But Sir Shakley still feels that maintaining the balance of power is a necessary task for Britain: "If the Russians retreat to the Ural Mountains, then the situation in the entire East will be terrible, especially the Middle East and the Far East, where bandits are rampant."
"That is a question that your country should fill in the blank." Liu Chang said with a smile: "All my interest is only in the Ural Mountains. This is my last territorial claim. I have no interest in more distant frontiers, just like your country No interest in Afghanistan"
"This is just a bald lie, just like the claim that Britain has no interest in Afghanistan. Liu Chang is also full of interest in those more distant frontiers. For example, after the collapse of Russian rule, Liu Chang has set his next focus on several khanates such as the Kokand Khanate in Central Asia. It's just that the national strength is limited now, and it is not the time to send troops in large numbers - it is best to wait until the British send troops to intervene in the American Civil War.
"But our country still hopes that the existing strategic balance will not be broken." Xia Keli repeated his speech.
"So you are not interested in the Beijing-Fenghuang Railway, Harbin-Dalian Railway, Jiangbei Railway and other projects?" Liu Chang suddenly changed the topic: "This is an investment project of tens of millions of pounds"
Liu Chang's words made Xia Keli almost jump. In the past negotiations, Liu Chang showed no sign of relenting on these railway projects outside the customs. He was not even willing to give up these projects to the French, who had always been cooperative. It has been repeatedly claimed that these projects are military-related, and therefore the implementation of the projects is left to a professional railway force.
This is a super project worth tens of millions of pounds or even tens of millions of pounds or even more than 100 million pounds. But Xia Keli wanted more than just the Guanwai Railway. He asked: "Is it just the Guanwai Railway project? We are all interested in the Jinpu Road, Longhai Road, and Jinghan Road outside the Guanhai"
The three railways of Jinpu, Longhai and Jinghan can be said to constitute the most important trunk lines of modern Chinese railways. From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, until the entry into the People's Republic of China, the entire railway construction basically revolved around the framework of these three railways. The double-tracking and electrification of the Hengyang-Guangzhou section did not even come to an end until the beginning of the 21st century. It was not until the construction of passenger trains that spanned the ages that the framework of these three railways was basically broken out.
Now the competition for these three railways has reached a fierce level, although Hu Linyi's cabinet always imposes restrictions on railway construction in one way or another. But Liu Chang knew clearly that a major explosion in railway construction was coming, and no one could stop this process, not to mention that Liu Chang was now borrowing money from abroad for a big deal.
If it were not for foreign loans, the country would not be able to support such a leap forward. You must know that loans to the United States alone are close to 100 million US dollars. However, due to the impact of the American Civil War, Americans now have to apply for loans from the Chinese government: " Your Excellency, Ambassador, let¡¯s discuss the issue of the China Railway first! The degree of your country¡¯s involvement is closely related to your country¡¯s flexibility in the Russian issue.¡±
Xia Keli smiled: "Our country will never accept such extortion. Our position on the entire Northeast Asia issue is consistent. We must recognize Russia's territorial integrity. Of course, we can adopt a more flexible attitude. I believe Whitehall also supports me"
Although a lot of diplomatic vocabulary was used, the key lies in "a more flexible attitude." Xia Keli already knew clearly that as long as the Chinese shared the railway project outside the customs with the British, the British government would very clearly support the Chinese government's final territorial issue.
"As long as your country can provide government loans, your country will have priority in the railway outside the customs." Liu Chang quickly made such a promise: "Including North Korea"
This is an additional condition, but Xia Keli agreed to such additional conditions. He was very optimistic about the prospects of the railway outside the customs.
Although there are only a few million people in the entire area outside the customs, the subsequent large-scale immigration of Chinese people is unstoppable. According to a piece of information he saw, there were 97,000 immigrants in just last year. Influx into areas outside the customs, and the unstoppable population growth within the customs will provide exponential growth in immigrants. The number of immigrants in the first eight months of this year is said to be the same as that of the whole of last year.
As long as the Chinese maintain their victorious offensive, the Chinese will fill the vast territory all the way to the Ural Mountains: "I hope that our company can have a controlling stake in the railway outside the customs."
"I can give you 51% of the equity, but I must declare that in cross-road operations, you not only have to negotiate with French companies, but also cooperate with state-owned highways"
"I agree with you." Xia Keli was considering whether to invest in the shares of several railway companies. The prospects of these British railway companies will be very promising in the future: "We will have a happy cooperation."
"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Liu Chang carefully put forward his own small request: "I still have some small personal requests. I don't know if your government can meet my personal requirements."
"Please tell me"
Liu Chang smiled and said: "You know, I am still young and energetic. Therefore, I like some young and beautiful girls!"
Regarding His Majesty the Emperor's straightforwardness, Ambassador Xia Keli smiled and had a hint of jealousy. No matter what, His Majesty the Emperor has a large-scale harem. Although the size of this harem did not exceed three digits and could not be compared with the Ottoman harem that Shakli knew, it was perhaps the most harmonious harem in the world.
Looking at the young palace concubines who spoke softly more than ten meters away, Xia Keli always hoped that he could become such a barbarian king: "Do you need anything? We will do our best to provide assistance."
The girl¡¯s own wishes, religious beliefs or anything else are insignificant in the face of such a national will. No matter what kind of woman the emperor needs, even if it means turning a British noblewoman into a sex slave in his harem. As a diplomat, we will also provide full assistance.
Liu Chang smiled: "I want to change my taste recently. You should also know that I haven't had a new person in my harem for several years!"
Xia Keli knew that this was not true. Although His Majesty the Emperor did not deliberately conduct drafts or similar activities, sporadic newcomers entered the emperor's new harem every year. Of course, the entry of these newcomers was often due to political needs, and It is not the emperor¡¯s own will. But His Majesty the Emperor always treated his new harem kindly with a generous attitude.
Like the emperor¡¯s latest concubine, the daughter of Du Wenxiu, a Muslim leader in Yunnan, this young girl once had the opportunity to command tens of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield. But after the surrender of the Dali regime, the girl became the best gift in a marriage.
According to the personal situation of the Ambassador, although this marriage did not meet the wishes of either party, it allowed the empire to conquer the entire Yunnan region without a single blow, and even extended Chinese influence to the Burma region, which the British were also interested in.
But Xia Keli also knew clearly that Liu Chang was right. Liu Chang's harem had not increased in size for several years. If he could take this opportunity to arrange a group of Christians into the harem, then Ambassador Xia Keli could even force a group of Christians to enter the harem. A large number of holy nuns returned to secular life, but first he had to find out what His Majesty the Emperor wanted to do.
"What kind of beautiful lady do you like?"
"My harem has been filled with beautiful girls from my country of China. Beautiful ladies from any region, even"
"Are you talking about foreign beauties? Do you need an Indian girl or a blond European lady"
"No, no, no!" Liu Chang said with a smile: "You misunderstood. Although due to the needs of the country, my newAdopted a Philippine princess. Even as a Catholic, I still like the Eastern style"
A few years later, Xia Keli realized that this was definitely the biggest lie Liu Chang had ever told in his life. His Majesty the Emperor had enough fraternity in the candidates for the harem, and his only request was: "beautiful enough"
But now Xia Keli didn't hear the implication of His Majesty the Emperor: "You mean North Korea?"
"I'm talking about Japan and Myanmar." Liu Chang said directly: "There are also Thailand and Vietnam. I have a strong interest in the exotic customs there. Of course, I have no interest in Indian girls. I hope to get those beautiful girls. The girl danced beautifully barefoot on the red carpet"
This is a major deal in geopolitics. Xia Keli certainly knows that His Majesty the Emperor does not just want a few groups of beautiful girls. He wants influence over the entire Northeast and Southeast Asia, especially Myanmar, where the British are already After running the business for many years, he felt a little embarrassed: "We must ask the country for instructions"
"Don't be nervous!" Liu Chang said with a smile: "I just appreciate the beauty of those girls. I have no objection to their bodies. If Whitehall is willing, I am willing to give Britain a generous gift."
"Please speak!"
Xia Keli understood that "he only expressed appreciation for the beauty of those girls and had no interest in their bodies" was a complete lie, but he had to listen to what His Majesty the Emperor had to say, and His Majesty the Emperor quickly said something that made him Interesting content: "We have made a wise decision not to challenge the British Empire's hegemony at sea in any situation. The navy will always maintain the goal of specializing in defense and offshore defense."
This made Xia Keli almost jump in shock: "Are you telling the truth?"
Over the past few hundred years, Britain has faced maritime challenges from powerful countries one after another. Netherlands, Spain, France, Russia
But now the new eastern powers are willing to give up their maritime challenges. This is the best news for Britain, which relies on maritime hegemony.
"Our two countries can sign an alliance agreement and specify the tonnage limits of the two countries. For example, the tonnage of our active warships is a fraction of that of the Kingdom of England, say one-third, one-fourth, and This is the upper limit and cannot be exceeded"
Liu Chang casually stated the specific content of the naval treaty: "Of course the British government must also recognize the scope of my hunting of exotic customs. I am going to create a Tokyo 48 girl. Osaka 48 girl, Burma 48 girl, and realize my dream ¡¡±
Xia Keli felt that this was a condition acceptable to Whitehall: "How long is the duration of this naval agreement?"
"Forever!" Liu Chang replied: "As long as I live, I will not challenge Britain's naval supremacy"
This was a perfect diplomatic negotiation. Xia Keli left with satisfaction with Liu Chang's promise, and Liu Chang also promised that he could taste the girls from all over the Eastern world at will. The British had promised him the freedom to act as he pleased.
But after Xia Keli left, his body was quickly overwhelmed by the fragrance of his daughter's home.
The concubines surrounded Liu Chang like a sea of ??flowers. They quickly changed Liu Chang into a home robe, and then Xu Yuegui asked: "Your Majesty, you really don't want to accept so many newcomers, do you?"
This is their biggest concern. Although there have been newcomers every year in the past two years, they are all political marriages, and their favor has not decreased at all. However, if they really want to expand the size of the harem, their favor will definitely decrease.
Liu Chang smiled and replied: "The clothes are not as good as new, and the people are not as good as old You will always be my favorite wings. Besides, only you know my whole world"
"That's right!" Xu Yuegui felt relieved. She glanced at the new Du Fengyang, who was a fourteen-year-old girl. Although her appearance and temperament are the best choice, and she has been favored by Liu Chang twice recently, only a real old person like her can enter Liu Chang's study, and only a dozen of the more than fifty concubines can have it. Opportunity to enter there and start unrestrained indulgence with Liu Chang.
That study room, which cost hundreds of thousands of silver dollars and was even specially equipped with so-called "wires", is the real source of Liu Chang's countless magic. It was full of endless wisdom and magic. When watching Liu Chang operate the artifact with concentration, Xu Xianggui always understood that he was only one step away from God, not to mention that Liu Chang showed many indulgent images in the artifact. pole.
But Xu Xianggui was even more fascinated by the words that the artifact naturally revealed: "When we rule the world"
She said softly to Liu Chang: "Your Majesty, the era when we ruled the worldIt¡¯s coming soon¡¡±
In the autumn of 1863, due to British intervention, the two sides of the American Civil War were forever separated into two countries. Kane, the first citizen of the United States, established his own dictatorship in the chaotic north.
In 1870, the end of the Franco-Prussian War caused the new Germany to begin to challenge British maritime hegemony, while Italy and Spain were still mired in civil war.
In 1872, the British government took the initiative to revise the old Sino-British naval treaty in view of the fact that His Majesty the Xia Emperor's journey to select beautiful girls throughout the Eastern world had come to an end. China should exert greater influence in the entire world.
The history of Eastern hegemony sweeping the world has opened a new page, as Liu Chang said: "When we rule the world"
ps: I originally planned to write for another month or two, but my body really couldn¡¯t support it anymore. Even though I took a lot of antihypertensive drugs, my blood pressure still remained around 100/150. Recently, I took Betaloc and it got a little better, and my eyes also started to deteriorate. There have been problems all the time, so I really can't support it anymore, so I can only put it to a temporary stop. I have not completed the expected 2.5 million words. I would like to express my infinite apologies to everyone. Please allow me to rest for a month or two, and I will weave beautiful stories for everyone later. story
Finally, I would like to recommend my wife¡¯s book "The Life of an Ordinary Civil Servant"
