Shi Dakai formulated a delaying strategy for the Qing army, not only to use a quagmire military deployment to implement this strategy, but also to ask the central government to send diplomats to negotiate with the invaders, whether it succeeds or not, it must be contacted, and the two sides have a certain amount of room for maneuver.

Shen Baozhen agreed with Shi Dakai's strategy and insisted on sending diplomats to Beijing in the midst of an uproar in China. It was impossible to meet Tang Ning in person, and the Tang Emperor himself did not like diplomatic negotiations at all, so he authorized Xu Rongcun, the mayor of Beijing, to contact the envoys of the Great Qing Dynasty and "let's talk about it".

War negotiations are nothing more than land reparations. Anyway, the Qing Kingdom can't be defeated, please Tang Wang draw a line, Tang Ning's side asked to cede a number of border provinces, **, Xinjiang, needless to say, Inner and outer Mongolia are also all cut off, and Heilongjiang, Jilin, which has not been poisoned by the war, is also cut off.

With the addition of the small Manchukuo, the three eastern provinces were all cut, and at this time, the three eastern provinces of Heilongjiang and Jilin accounted for most of the land, and Shengjing was only half the size of the Korean Peninsula around Shenyang. Tang Ning seemed to want to cut off all the border lands of the Qing Dynasty, even Qinghai, and Gansu from the west of Xining.

From the perspective of the territory, the Tang king's request has exceeded more than half of the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and if the Great Qing State agrees, then the loss will be a fight with Russia's loss of the entire Siberia. But the Qing Dynasty was able to retain most of the eighteen provinces of the Han Dynasty, except for the Lingnan Kingdom and Zhili Province, which were already **.

After three days of suffocation, the Great Qing State proposed that unless you return Beijing and Zhili Province to us, it is possible to talk about such a big separation. Is it possible for the Qing Dynasty to agree to cede such a large territory? This was really an accident, and it seemed that it was surprisingly beaten so badly that the central government was now hungry, and not only did Taiwan cede to Japan, but even the border provinces did not want it.

It's a pity that Zhili can't do without, Tang Ning has already built a lot of construction in Beijing, where is there any room for maneuver? It can only be demanded that the whole of Beijing be used as a concession, and the same can be said for the whole of Tianjin and Yantai, and that Zhili and Shandong can be used as joint administrative areas, and the two sides can agree on how many troops each can station.

Dalian didn't need to talk to the Qing Dynasty, because this originally belonged to Shengjing, and Manchukuo was not qualified to ask the Tang King to come back, which was a strategic point in the Bohai Bay, and the empire had to use it as a naval base to have a sense of security.

Shen Baozhen is well aware of the gap between the Qing Dynasty and the Great Windsor, and what he hopes is that the Qing Dynasty will no longer be arrogant, recuperate, wait for the confrontation between the Entente and the United Nations to ferment, and finally escalate, so that the Qing Dynasty can only fight when it is no longer lonely, so he strongly advocates reaching this agreement with Windsor, and becoming a small country like Russia that "does not forget the national shame".

Almost all the ministers were against this, and they felt that it was impossible for the Qing people to agree to such a plan. After arguing for a few days, Shen Baozhen was angry and slapped the table: "Do you really think that you can do it according to the will of the people?" It was this gang of teasing and messing that made the Windsor consortium angry, and Windsor used to be gentle and frugal to the Qing Dynasty!

Sue you, in the past, the political reform of the Great Qing Dynasty was specially planned by the Emperor Windsor, and he used to be very sincere in helping me establish a democratic state in the Qing Dynasty, but now I just can't stand it and come back and take it over in person! ”

The ministers were dead silent......

In the dead silence, Shen Baozhen didn't wait for others to speak: "Okay, don't ask me how I know, I won't sue you." Anyway, those mobs are not enough to succeed and more than to lose, I will not leave this matter to the people to vote, our government will directly sign a treaty, and if you don't cut it, you have to cut it. ”

Shen Baozhen slapped his chest loudly: "In order to preserve the Han incense of my Qing Dynasty, there must be someone who takes the initiative to undertake the task of this historical sinner, and that person is me Shen Baozhen, I will personally sign this treaty, what you have to do is just keep silent."

The army and the police are ready to suppress the demonstrations of the people, no, you go and cooperate with the Windsor consortium, all the cities will cut off the Internet, radio, and no newspapers will be allowed to oppose this treaty, otherwise it will be closed, understand? You are not even ready to support me here, then I will not do it, you come, the Qing Dynasty is in your hands or stealing your life, you decide. ”

Also, if it is a referendum, I am afraid that even the Diaoyu Islands will not be able to be cut out, let alone Taiwan, not to mention **, Xinjiang, Inner and Outer Mongolia, and the three eastern provinces, for the sake of the people, they have to force public opinion, which sounds very funny, but this is politics, how can it be possible to maintain virginity when playing politics?

In order to minimize the opposition of the people, when writing the treaty, the wording was tactful, and instead of directly saying cedes, it was said that "the Qing Dynasty will no longer participate in the political affairs of **, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Inner and Outer Mongolia, the three eastern provinces and Guangdong Province."

Even so, the world was in an uproar, the newspapers wanted to scold Shen Baozhen for betraying the country, even the police couldn't stop him, and the Internet did not cooperate with the Qing government to shut it down, and the angry Qing people hated to "eat his flesh" on Lord Shen. Members of parliament have pandered to public opinion and expressed their indignation at the impeachment of the acting prime minister.

Shen Baozhen thought of a trick to move the capital again, from Xi'an to Changsha, because Xi'an is 400 kilometers away from Inner Mongolia, and helicopters can hit it, so the capital must be moved immediately. In the process of moving the capital, the National Assembly, which needed to hold a congress, could not function well again, and the impeachment of the prime minister had to drag on for a year and a half.

As long as Shen Baozhen is still in the position of prime minister for a day, the central army of the Great Qing State will have to follow, and if the Congress wants to force a meeting, Shen Baozhen even hinted that the Windsor Army could send the air force to Xi'an to drop two bombs in order to cooperate with his national policy of moving the capital, but unfortunately Windsor still did not cooperate, Shen Baozhen had to send people to throw bombs himself, and he really killed several Xi'an people.

Windsor saw that Shen Baozhen was so "sincere", so she had to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and acquiesced that these bombs were thrown by herself, and the Air Force was indignant, how could it be that we threw them? Can we throw it so crookedly? If we threw it, it would not be a few who died, but one vote......

The prestige of the central government has fallen to its lowest point since the democratization of the Qing Dynasty, and if it were not for the agreement reached with Windsor, those local warlords, such as the great warlord Li Xiucheng in Ulaanbaatar, controlled hundreds of thousands of elites of the Qing Dynasty.

In order to confront the Russians, Windsor also helped Mongolia build a large number of roads, Li Xiucheng engaged in tuntian in Mongolia, so that the agriculture in that place has been greatly developed, and there is no problem in feeding 300,000 troops.

Li Xiucheng was accustomed to leading troops in Mongolia, refused the appointment to serve in the new capital Changsha, directly led the army to the enemy, and gave his soldiers a free choice.

The results of the vote with their feet showed that no one really hated the Windsor Consortium at all, and that the few soldiers chose to return to Han while they waited for Windsor to take over and sugar-coated bombarded them. After Shen Baozhen learned of this result, he vigorously publicized this outrageous but honest news to the people, and threatened those who wanted to demonstrate.

Whoever dares to oppose the appeasement policy of the central government, and who dares to march in the streets, immediately mobilize the army, and let them let the front line block the advance of the Windsor army, to see if you are playing in earnest. Mom, this trick is so powerful, those guys who play tricks will be impotent in an instant.

Lord Shen promoted the policy in an orderly manner, but few people dared to demonstrate. The toughest time for Lord Shen was to arrest all 30 members of a newspaper and send them to the front line in Urumqi to fight, which scared the entire Qing Dynasty into silence.

Fortunately, Shi Shuai soon announced the withdrawal of the army from Xinjiang, with the cooperation of the Windsor Legion, these literati were able to avoid the military disaster, and they were treated like national heroes in Lanzhou, which is now less than 200 kilometers away from Xining, Qinghai, the main front, so Shi Dakai, the governor of Gansu and Shaanxi, moved the governor to Xi'an, guarding one side and enjoying a high status.

Among the warlords in various places, there are now mainly Heilongjiang and Jilin who are not satisfied, they have been confronting the Soviet Union for a long time, and they also have a huge army of 300,000, so they just sent Li Xiucheng, a slave surnamed three, to crusade against it, and only allowed him to bring 150,000 troops, with the support of our Windsor Air Force and armored forces, it is more than enough to deal with the Heiji warlords.

General Wen Fei knew that he could not reverse it, and after obtaining 10 million pounds in compensation for Li Hongzhang from the central government, he led his troops to withdraw from Taiwan, only defending Fujian, and his territory was reduced by half.

The current Premier Shen Baozhen is equivalent to the Qing government recognized by Windsor, which local government is not satisfied, Windsor naturally goes directly to "receive" Ya's territory, so Lord Shen has erected strange authority since Lord Zuo sacrificed his life for the country.

Lord Shen took advantage of the god-like political wisdom to skillfully arrange half of the members of the National Assembly in Changsha and half in Xi'an, so that they could never organize a two-thirds advantage to veto the various important arrangements of the Prime Minister's Office, which is breathtaking.

His wisdom was also reflected in the appointment of Sheng Xuanhuai, who was known for his timidity and compromise, as the governor of Zhili Province, to deal directly with Windsor, to meet Windsor's reasonable and unreasonable demands in Zhili, and to avoid another escalation of the confrontation between the two sides. This appointment has a very strict symbolic meaning, because the previous governors were all elected by the people, but this time they were directly appointed by the Prime Minister's Office, which opened the authoritarian era of the central government of the Qing Dynasty, and the power that originally belonged to the provinces returned to the central government.

The so-called army of the Central Committee and Sheng Xuanhuai in Zhili is just an ornament, if it fights against the Windsor army, it will only be a share, but no one knows about this matter except Lord Shen and Lord Sheng, and the people of the Qing Dynasty still think that "we still have half of the right to speak in Zhili." ”
