Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In fact, Qin Ge's burning of the treaty was unanimously opposed by Kang Youwei and others. After all, such humiliation of the great powers would definitely make the great powers unhappy and give them a reason to declare war.  However, they did not know the international situation. In Qin Ge's view, although Germany did not start a maritime arms race with Britain as imagined, the Anglo-Boer War was about to break out. As for the United States, Roosevelt has now been appointed Deputy Minister of the Navy.  , I believe that the Spanish-American War will also break out soon.  Qin Ge is actually betting that, based on the intelligence currently obtained, both Britain and the United States will be dragged down by the war and have no time to go east.

    Qin Ge's denial and destruction of the treaties signed by the previous dynasty with various countries soon became known to the people across the country. On April 25, a student demonstration broke out in Hong Kong. The students shouted long live the emperor, and more and more people joined in.  The parade made the Hong Kong authorities very nervous.

    On April 30, Munchlov took an official letter and arrogantly came to the newly built diplomatic department of the Chinese Empire at the entrance of Dongjiaominxiang and asked to see the Minister of Foreign Affairs Pei Ji.  After Nicholas II received the message sent back, he was immediately overjoyed. He was currently worried about having no decent excuse to declare war on Qin Ge!  The "Qing-Russia-Beijing Treaty" was signed before. Guangxu was finished because the guns were not delivered to Guangxu. This was something Nicholas II did not expect at all. But in this way, the "Qing-Russia-Beijing Treaty" did not take effect.  , according to international law, his troops should withdraw from the Northeast region at this time.  But when it came to the duck in his mouth, how could Nicholas II let it fly away?  These days, all the ministers have been racking their brains to think of various excuses for war. Now, there is no need to think about it.

    After seeing Pei Ji, Munchlov handed the official letter to Pei Ji, raised his head and said: "Sir Pei, this is our country's official declaration of war. Now that it is in your hands, it means that our two countries have now officially entered war.  status, please hand it over to your emperor as soon as possible."

    Pei Ji could not see any emotion on his face and said: "It's such an urgent matter, so I can't call Mr. Munchlov, please!"

    Since there was no telephone installed in the palace, Pei Ji got into the car parked near the entrance with the document that he did not read after Munchlov left, and then drove to the palace.

    After asking the guards to check his documents, Pei Ji drove until he got out of the car in front of the Meridian Gate. Then, after being inspected by the guards, he went straight to the Qianqing Palace.

    According to Qin Ge¡¯s estimation, several countries that have the strength to compete with him will soon declare war on him, so Qin Ge has been in Qianqing Palace these days to deal with the more useful advice sent by knowledgeable people from all over the world.  Qin Ge had a headache from reading classical Chinese these days, but he was too embarrassed to ask people for advice. As a majestic monarch of a country, he couldn't ask others what this sentence meant like a child who didn't understand anything.  There are also some that are easy to understand. For example, the letter in Qin Ge's hand is relatively easy to understand: Today's people are not wise enough. If the Holy Spirit wants to imitate the Western constitutional monarchy, he should first establish education

    Putting down the letter in his hand, Qin Ge said softly: "Of course I know that science and education will rejuvenate the country, but now the great powers are looking around. If they cannot compete with them militarily, how can they carry out education with peace of mind?"

    At this time, a eunuch came in from outside the palace, whispered a few words to Xiao Dezi in the palace and then went out. Xiao Dezi walked to Qin Ge and said: "Your Majesty, Minister Pei of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that he has something urgent to see you?"

    "Oh? Pei Ji? It must be Lao Maozi who has declared war on me. Send the message quickly!"

    After Xiao Dezi responded, he raised his voice and said: "Pei Ji, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, is here to see you!"

    This voice gave Qin Ge goosebumps. Qin Ge had previously considered dismissing the eunuchs in the palace and leaving only the maids, but he thought that the eunuchs would definitely not be able to survive without the palace, so he stayed.

    Pei Ji walked in quickly, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Your Majesty, Pei Ji, bows to your Majesty!"

    Qin Ge said in an unhappy tone: "Didn't I say that these etiquettes should be abolished?"

    "I forgot for a moment." Pei Ji stood up and said.

    "I forgot, I think you all did it on purpose! You came here in a hurry today, I guess it must have been Lao Maozi who declared war. The British would not have been so quick." Qin Ge said.

    "The Emperor knows things like a god, and I am deeply impressed! This is the declaration of war sent by the Russian Minister Monchilov more than ten minutes ago. I sent it over without even looking at it." Pei Ji handed over the document in his arms.  Qin Ge.

    Qin Ge opened it and took a look at it, and said: "Okay, Lao Maozi is not overestimating his own abilities, so let him see how powerful he is! Come with me."

    Qin Ge and Pei Ji came to the study, then walked to a desk, picked up the earphones of the telegraph machine, then took out the code book and copied a set of codes, and then began to send the message.

    The Queen of Hawaii, Honolulu and Pearl City, which had completed their cruise mission to Tsushima Island, just returned to the vicinity of Jeju Island at this time.

    "Captain, Your Majesty has sent a telegram!"Xunbing took the message and said.

    "Huh? A telegram from the emperor? Bring it quickly!" Chen Zheng took a look at the telegram and saw that there were only a dozen words on it, but it made Chen Zheng excited.

    "What did the young master say?" Nowadays, only the oldest group calls Qin Ge the young master, which is Qin Ge's rule.

    "See for yourself." Chen Zheng handed the message to Su Chang.

    "Russia has declared war, you can act as you like. Qin Ge, March 29th of the first year of China." Su Chang read it out, and then asked: "Is today the 29th day of March in the lunar calendar?" The Western calendar has been used for a long time abroad.  Many people have forgotten the lunar calendar.

    "Not bad." Chen Zheng said, he just read the calendar today.

    "Nowadays, each ship uses a different radio frequency. I'm afraid the young master only sent a telegram to the navy and army. We have to send a telegram to other ships quickly." Su Chang said.

    "Yes, yes, we need to notify other ships first." Chen Zheng walked into the telegraph room and ordered to send telegrams to other ships.

    "The flag signal is coming from the flagship!" the observers of the Honolulu and Pearl City said to the command room.

    "Huh?" Liu Buchan and Lin Taizeng picked up their telescopes and began to observe the semaphore.  "The Russians have declared war and are obeying orders."

    Li Dingxin, the deputy captain of the Honolulu, said: "What? How dare you declare war on us? You really don't know how to live or die! You must teach me a lesson this time. Back then, when Lao Maozi was playing tricks in Heilongjiang, now we are going to beat him to pieces!"
