"Your considerations are not valid, but there is a point in this, ?anen ???.? ｒ?ａ?ｎ?? We cannot rule out that it was Liu Jun who gave the order to Zheng Yiqian, asking her to convey the order to the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of the Navy. George thought for a moment and said to Xinki in front of him.

After George's reminder, Xinki also understood this problem, however, in case of prevention, Xinki still reminded George not to relax too much, and to pay close attention to the telegram from the capital.

George knew Xinki's concerns, and immediately said that he would follow the capital closely again until the most accurate telegram was reached.

Yang Xin Palace, since the establishment of the Nanyang Combat Command, Liu Jun has already shifted his attention to the Nanyang side.

Now, there are three days left before the Lushun fleet goes to the South Seas, and during these three days, the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff will come from time to time to discuss with them how to deal with the relations with Britain and France after the declaration of war.

The biggest victims of the war against the South Seas were Britain and France, and most of the supplies of the two countries would be transported through the Manila area, and once Manila was occupied by themselves, Britain and France would inevitably worry that their future transportation channels would be problematic.

Britain and France are not going to fall out with themselves at the moment, they need to contain the German fleet in Japan by themselves at that time, so Liu Jun has short legs, and the most that Britain and France have is protests and sanctions, and the rest, they can't come up with anything to resist themselves.

Even so, Liu Jun still didn't want to be distracted by this matter.

The Nanyang battle is the cornerstone of his future hegemony. No one is allowed to sabotage this battle, not even Britain and France.

Although he thinks so, Liu Jun also knows that Britain and France will not give up so easily. Eryang asked them to completely support their own battles, or acquiesce to themselves, so long to give them certain benefits.

This benefit, I discussed with Li Hongzhang a few days ago, that is, to avoid the high cost of cargo ships from various countries to Manila, and even Britain and France, where you can add fresh water and fuel for free.

This strategy is valuable, Britain and France, although they are world powers, but they can't get rid of it, and when they pass Malacca, they pay a high fee to Hu Langge.

Therefore, if the door is opened to Britain and France, Liu Jun estimates that these two countries will agree with his ideas.

"What do you think of that old man's advice?" Liu Jun, who was sitting on the chair, saw that Zheng Yiqian had finished his work, and immediately stepped forward and asked.

Zheng Yiqian was present at the sixth level and Li Hongzhang's discussion that day, so as soon as she heard Liu Junwen's suggestion, Ta knew what was going on.

Zheng Yiqian completely agreed with Li Hongzhang's suggestion, after all, this matter seems to be the only way to solve it.

"I agree with the old man, anyway, we are all exempt from the high taxes in Manila at present, although on the surface, we will lose too many benefits, but do not forget that this is short-lived, and in the future we will be able to go to war with Britain and France as soon as possible. Close the South Seas and cut off their sea retreat. ”

Zheng Yiqian's explanation was very good, and when she heard Zheng Yiqian already say this, the sixth level did not have any doubts in her heart, but nodded and said to Zheng Yiqian: "Let Wu Tingfang come over." ”

Wu Tingfang's Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a department that eats by mouth, and his task is nothing more than to communicate with other countries in order to obtain benefits for the empire.

The big goal has been determined, and what he has to do now is nothing more than to tell Wu Tingfang the situation and ask him to go to the designated place to complete the negotiation plan.

As for the negotiation plan and agreement, Level 6 will not use his brains in this regard, after all, this should be something that Tawu Tingfang has to consider.

As soon as Zheng Yiqian heard that she was looking for Wu Tingfang, she immediately understood what Liu Jun was thinking, and immediately, Zheng Yiqian nodded, then took her hat from the side and put it on Toushan, and walked out.

After Zheng Yiqian left the palace gate, she did not stop in other places, but went directly to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is, the former Prime Minister Yamen

As soon as she entered, she saw that Zait, who was now a deputy minister, had come out of it.

Zaitao has been preparing for the press conference held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs during this time, so he rarely sees him here, and today Zheng Yiqian can see him here, it is completely a coincidence, Zaitao came to report the situation to Wu Tingfang.

Knowing that Zaitao had something, Zheng Yiqian didn't bother much, but after asking Wu Tingfang's news, she said goodbye to Zaitao, and then came to Wu Tingfang's office.

Wu Tingfang is the easiest of several ministers to work overtime, even if it is sometimes at noon dinner, Wu Tingfang may be working.

No, Wu Tingfang is now picking up two steamed buns and eating while reading documents.

"Minister Wu Tingfang, thank you for your hard work, please come with me immediately to the Heart Cultivation Palace." After entering, Zheng Yiqian said with a smile.

There must be a big deal going to the Heart Cultivation Palace, although Wu Tingfang didn't know what the purpose of covering his face was entangled, but he was still following behind Zheng Yiqian and came to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Wu Tingfang saw Liu Junquan standing in front of the map waiting for him.

Ta knew that Liu Jun had something to do with him today, so after saying hello to Liu Jun, Wu Tingfang sat down with peace of mind and listened to Liu Jun's instructions.

When Zheng Yiqian went to find Wu Tingfang, Liu Jun had already figured everything out in his heart, and immediately, he said about the considerations in his heart and the tasks of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs after declaring war on Nanyang. By the way, Wu Tingfang also prepared for the negotiation between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the surface of the South China Sea after the accident of the cruiser Songshan.

There is a step in declaring war with Nanyang, and this step is to negotiate with Nanyang.

This is a cover-up negotiation, the negotiation is inconclusive, even if there is a result, it is a break, after all, this time, their own purpose is to start a war with Nanyang, not to obtain their compensation.

Wu Tingfang knew about this matter at the beginning, but at that time, he only proposed it, and the second did not decide whether he needed to do it, but now, when he heard Liu Jun remind him again, he understood in his heart that the current task of his Ministry of Foreign Affairs was very heavy.

It's a bit heavy, but this happens to be an opportunity to give their juniors a chance to learn, and immediately, Wu Tingfang agreed to come down after thinking about it, and promised Liu Jun that he would definitely handle this matter properly.

Hearing Wu Tingfang's assurance, Liu Jun was immediately relieved, after all, Wu Tingfang, but an old man, he will definitely be able to complete the task, (to be continued.)
