In the fourth Sino-Japanese negotiations, the Japanese side agreed to the first two conditions of all the conditions put forward by China after determining the conditions for the Chinese side to withdraw from the encirclement and let the 10th Division out. At the same time, the Chinese side agreed to negotiate privately with the Japanese Empire on the issue of prisoners. As for the other conditions, the Japanese side refused to negotiate, and the Chinese side finally agreed to put those issues on hold for the time being, but the Chinese side reserved the right to continue the negotiations. This article must be written to obtain. The Beijing government will never give up the land that China has lost.

In the end, the two sides signed the negotiation document, indicating that China would completely take back Port Arthur and Qingdao ports to the country. It also indicates that the contest between China and Japan for nearly two months has come to an end with a big victory for China.

The Chinese side did not omit the details of this negotiation, but the news of China's resumption of Port Arthur and Qingdao spread throughout the world as quickly as possible. China is boiling. The world was shocked. Could it be that the lion of the East has really awakened?

Dongjiaomin Lane. British Embassy.

The British ambassador depressed and smashed a set of precious Jingdezhen porcelain in his hand. Immediately after that, he reported the situation in China to China. Now that Japan has softened, China's low position in Asia will inevitably be fundamentally changed, and this will even affect the change in the form of the entire Far East and even the whole world, which the British ambassador cannot afford not to pay attention to.

"The rise of China is unknown to the British Empire, but the Chinese Army is very combative, and the rise of the squadron can be called an oriental miracle. If it can be said that the Chinese can be mobilized to send troops to the West, it will be extremely beneficial to the development of the war situation in Europe. If it cannot be pulled as an ally, it should be subverted as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be a big trouble in the future. "The British ambassador sent his opinion. To be honest, China's strength is very embarrassing now, it can be said that it is not up or down, and there is no country with a strong army, but the strength of the navy is almost zero. In today's world, it is not only the army that measures the level of strength of a country, but the size and combat power of the navy have become increasingly important factors. With the continuous development of modern navies, especially the emergence of new types of ships, the world has become more interconnected, and having a strong navy is a harbinger of a broader future for the country. This is even more evident in Britain, where sea power reigns supreme.

At the same time, the French ambassador replied with a similar telegram to the country. The British and French powers were worthy of being the same old colonial powers, and they knew that the current China was difficult to conquer, so they were ready to use the policy of softness to restrict China's development.

The German ambassador's telegram to the country was filled with excitement. Qingdao War, the Germans were defeated. The loss of Qingdao, a fortress in the Far East, also made Japan a powerful country that Germany feared. As an emerging capitalist country, Germany is strong, but its influence cannot be compared with Britain and France, looking at Britain's allies all over the world, the Germans are nervous and envious, coupled with the current political turmoil in Italy, there may be big problems at any time, which has a great impact on the side of the Allies where Germany is located. Under these circumstances, Germany urgently needed new allies to consolidate the stability of the Allies. But when the Germans looked at the world, the powerful countries basically became allies of Britain. The United States, the only free country, did not pay any attention to the invitation of the Germans, except for being interested in making war money, and the German intelligence service had also received the latest information, the British had made secret contacts with the Americans, and it was extremely likely that the Americans would turn to the Entente. This makes the situation for Germany even more difficult in the future. After all, Britain and France have the United States as the world's factory, so the logistics will be completely guaranteed, and the advantage of Germany will be completely lost. Therefore, Germany was extremely urgent to find an ally. Now a China has suddenly emerged in the Far East, which, like Germany, is an emerging power and urgently needs the recognition of the world. The German ambassador believes that there is a great possibility of an alliance between China and Germany. Moreover, China has just ended the war with Japan, and although relations between the two sides have eased, the hostility will not disappear, and under such circumstances, it is unlikely that the Chinese government in Beijing will join the Entente. This is also where the advantage of the German side lies. The German ambassador believed that if the German Reich paid sufficient attention to this matter, China would not necessarily be unable to turn to the Allies. Although China does not have a strong navy, its powerful army can entrust Japan, an ally valued by the Entente, in the Far East, and if China really concludes a military alliance with Germany, it can also burst the Russian chrysanthemum from the rear, which can hold back the two Allied powers at once, and the support for Germany is extremely strong. The German Ambassador is confident that His Majesty the Kaiser, Germany, will take his proposals very seriously.

Unlike the jealousy of the British and French ambassadors and the excitement of the German ambassadors, the thoughts of the Russian ambassadors were the most complicated. He was well aware of the situation in the Russian Empire, and the internal contest between the tsar's favored vassals and those hereditary nobles had reached a fever pitch, and the entire empire was almost ready to use force. Moreover, now the Far Eastern Governor's Office belongs to the sphere of influence of the tsar's favored ministers, and he himself belongs to the forces of the great nobles, and his opinion may not be able to make the tsar pay attention, after all, the power of those favored ministers in the court is very terrifying.

However, as the ambassador to China, the Russian ambassador still truthfully reported the situation in China to the tsar, after all, he submitted his opinions to the tsar's recital, and at the same time contacted several hereditary nobles in Tsarist Russia, hoping that China's affairs would attract enough attention in the empire.

At the moment when the contract was signed, Japan demanded that the Chinese side withdraw from the encirclement of Wafangdian and release the 10th Division.

"Let the men of the 10th Division hand over their weapons and come out, and we will let them go back to Port Arthur safely." These are the words of Shi Fatzi. Although the 10th Division has been besieged and almost exhausted, they are an army after all, an army with strong combat effectiveness, who knows how much combat strength they still have, if they launch a surprise attack when they let them go, it will definitely cause huge casualties to the Northeast Army. For this, Shi Fatzi had to guard against it. Besides, the weapons and equipment of the 10th Division also made Shi Fatzi's eyes hot, in line with the habit of plucking the feathers of geese, of course Shi Fatzi would not give up such a huge extra money.

In fact, Shi Fat Man was too worried about this. How could a person who is so cautious in handling things like Zhen Zhen let this kind of counterattack happen. In addition, the situation of the 10th Division in Wafangdian is even more difficult than they imagined.

Wafang shop. Everywhere there were Japanese soldiers with sallow faces. Except for the soldiers who were nested in the trenches and barely had some spirits, the soldiers in other places were all staggering, looking more like a group of weak people called Hanako.

In fact, on the second day after the Northeast Army besieged the 10th Division, the food carried by the 10th Division had already run out. Then they launched several breakout operations at all costs, but they were all beaten back by the Northeast Army with superior firepower. The facilities inside Wafangdian were almost destroyed by the Northeast Army, the wells were buried, the houses were burned, and there was no food at all. The entire Wafangdian is simply in ruins. The Japanese soldiers were elite, but that was when they were well fed and drunk, and their morale was good. In order to ensure combat effectiveness, the Japanese army began to slaughter military horses on the third day, and in previous wars, military horses had already been almost lost. Even if all the generals and horses were slaughtered, it would not be enough for the Japanese army to eat. Hundreds of military horses barely managed to maintain the Japanese army's rations for two days. When the Japanese army ate up the last piece of horse meat, it brazenly launched a breakthrough operation, but unexpectedly, it was ambushed by the Northeast Army and lost one-third of its troops. So far, the number of the entire 10th Division has dropped to less than 10,000 people, and the number is still decreasing rapidly, and those wounded who have no food and no medicine are dying as quickly as possible. In this case, the commander of the 10th Division frantically asked for help from the headquarters of the First Army. Tremendous pressure was placed on the military headquarters of the First Army. Otherwise, Senior General Sadami Anton would not have personally sent a telegram to Foreign Minister Ichiro Honno without disregard of his face, asking them to conclude the negotiations quickly. Win a way out for the 10th Division.

In the face of the Chinese demand, Ichiro Motono's nose was almost crooked. Surrender your weapons, what's the difference between that and surrendering?

"Mr. Shi, the release of the besieged 10th Division is stipulated in our treaty, and now that the ink of the treaty is not dry, do you want to go back on it?" Ichiro Motono said loudly. I've seen shamelessness, I've never seen such shamelessness, and I want to regret it just after signing a treaty, it's really shameless.

"Mr. Honno, please calm your anger. We are also for the security between the two sides. If your army comes and leaves, then the results of our painstaking negotiations will be completely wasted! Such. If we take a step back, we will open a gap and allow the Japanese soldiers to keep their short weapons, long guns, machine guns, artillery, etc., and do not take them away. After living in our Wafang store for so long, you always have to pay some room fees! Shi Fatzi said with a smile.

"This is blackmail, and it is not in accordance with the provisions of the treaty." Ichiro Honno's face was furious.

"Mr. Honno, this is already our condition. You can send telegrams to your troops and ask for their opinions. Oh, if they still have the strength to reply to the telegram! Shi Fatzi was not angry, looking at Ichiro Honno's distorted face, his mood was extremely comfortable. For a diplomat, there is nothing more pleasant than seeing the helpless and tangled face of an opponent.

"Humph! I will protest to your government! "Thinking of the urging telegram from the military headquarters of the First Army, Ichiro Motono is not entangled with Shi Fatzi, after these few days of negotiations, there is always some understanding between the two sides. He knew that people like Shi Fatzi didn't get in the oil and salt, and they would desperately exploit it if they caught the slightest opportunity, and they didn't know how much benefit the empire would lose if they continued to talk to him.
