Reports in China were also reported abroad for the first time. While the Western countries were waging war, they had to spare limited energy to focus on what was happening in the East. Severely inflicted a heavy blow on a permanent division of the Japanese army, such combat effectiveness is no longer something that the army of a weak country can achieve. The Battle of Qingdao made Western countries see the strength of the Japanese army, and also completely changed the evaluation of the yellow race by Western whites. It can be said that Japan is the most powerful country of the yellow race in the West, and it can even be compared with the most powerful capitalist countries in the West. Now China's Northeast Army is on a par with the Japanese army on the battlefield, and even has the upper hand, which greatly surprised the West.

The rise of the Northeast is so fast that people are not prepared in the slightest. In Asia, if Japan is an ally that can be aligned, then China is a piece of fat to take and demand. It is also the nourishment for the Western countries to replenish their war losses after the scheduled war. But now the situation has changed, and the transformation of such a powerful country from this decaying country has made Western countries begin to think about their future China strategy. Now than in the past, the Western powers are mired in war, and it is impossible to draw strength to pay attention to the world in a short period of time, and besides, the emergence of such a powerful country, if it is used by others, will even affect the trend of world wars.

U.S. Embassy.

U.S. Ambassador to China Jake. Stephen's house was attended by many guests, all of whom were ambassadors from Western countries. The United States has not yet entered the war, so it is not only the ambassadors of the Entente countries who have come, but also the ambassadors of the Central Powers. This surprised Ambassador Jack. You know, many of the ambassadors have already left Beijing. Why are they all back?

"Ambassador Jack, I am here just to confirm one thing, that is, is the news about the heavy damage to the Japanese 10th Division announced by the Chinese government in Beijing accurate?" The British Ambassador, Mr. Smith, was the first to speak. Although there is a German ambassador here who he hates very much, this is after all the territory of the Americans, and the United States is now an independent, rich and powerful country, not a colony of the British Empire. Even with the domineering of the British ambassador, it is necessary to give the American ambassador this face, not to mention that there are still requests for others!

"Ladies and gentlemen, you should ask the person concerned about this matter! Why did you come to me and ask? Ambassador Jack said in surprise.

"Mr. Jack, we don't believe much in the statement of the Beijing government, although the Beijing government said it in detail, but we still find it difficult to believe that the squadron will have such combat effectiveness, and the Japanese army can fight against the world power of the German ** team. We learned that a group of American reporters were in the Japanese army, and they happened to be stationed at the 10th Division, and we hoped to get information about their interviews. The German ambassador spoke. Although Germany and the Beijing government have made many contacts, the Beijing government has always refused to agree to conclude a military alliance with Germany, and has always adhered to its neutral attitude, hoping only to cooperate with Germany in the field of weapons research and development. However, the German ambassador did not look down on the weak industrial base of the Beijing government, after all, German technology can make the most advanced in the world, not to mention, China is too far away from Germany, even if it can produce weapons and ammunition in China, I am afraid that it will not be able to successfully transport them to Germany.

China lacked a strong navy to provide Germany with strong help. This is also the reason why Germany has always been hesitant. However, after the news that the ** squadron had inflicted heavy losses on the battlefield of the Japanese 10th Division, no one was more eager to know the truth of the news than him. If this is true, the combat effectiveness of the squadron may be valued by the great German emperor, and there will be room for cooperation between the two countries in the future.

"Ladies and gentlemen! It is true that a team of American journalists entered the Japanese army, but no accurate information has come so far. I hope you will be as patient as I am. Ambassador Jack said with a smile. Then he instructed the people around him to hold a banquet and entertain the ambassadors of various countries.

To Ambassador Jack's surprise, after the banquet began, the whole banquet was divided into two parts, one side was the Entente camp led by Britain and France, and the other side was the Allied camp led by Germany. Of course, there are several neutral countries in the middle like the United States, and with the presence of these countries, the whole banquet is not from being tense.

The banquet was carried out in this situation without embarrassment or embarrassment. As the night darkened, Ambassador Jack was a little anxious. According to the time calculation, there should be news by now. Although he did not send that reporter, they still applied for the permission of the US ambassador to Japan when they wanted to enter the Japanese army to cover news. Otherwise, how could the Japanese Navy let them easily enter the heavily guarded army. The Japanese ambassador is a good friend of Ambassador Jack. It's not difficult to get interview information.

The night became more and more intense, the noisy city of Sijiu finally quieted down, on this day, the people of the whole Beijing city rejoiced for the victory of the Northeast Army for a day, the whole day, the sound of firecrackers did not stop, all kinds of celebrations made the whole city of Sijiu become a sea of joy. For many years, Sijiucheng has only suffered shame. In the Second Opium War, the city of Beijing was broken by the British and French forces, the emperor fled, and the most glorious and magnificent garden of Sijiu City, the Old Summer Palace, was destroyed in the war. The invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Coalition has torn off the last wig leaf of China. 450,000,000 compatriots were almost reduced to slavery. Now that a victory has finally arrived, many elderly Chinese people are crying with excitement. This battle has calmed down the hearts of the people in the entire Northeast Ruling Region a lot, and many of the old and young people who are interested in Beiyang or the previous dynasty have begun to open their eyes to the current Beijing government, which has played a positive role in the Northeast to a certain extent.

Unlike the dark place where the Chinese people live, the embassy area of Dongjiaomin Lane is brightly lit. The U.S. Embassy was even more crowded. The two groups of people, who were originally distinct, finally quarreled after drinking some wine. Among them, the British ambassador and the German ambassador were representatives. If it weren't for the mediation of the U.S. ambassador, I'm afraid the entire U.S. embassy would have become a place for fighting.

Ambassador Jack of the United States exhorted with sweat on his face: "Everyone, please pay attention to maintain your demeanor, you are all ambassadors of various countries, representing your respective countries. At the same time, I hope that you will give me a face and a face to the United States of America. Seeing the atmosphere of the banquet becoming more and more tense, Ambassador Jack had to shout loudly.

Not to mention, when it comes to the country's face, these ambassadors are somewhat calmed down by the emotions stimulated by alcohol. Ambassador Jack breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, nothing happened, and if the ambassadors of Western countries had fought in the US embassy, it would have become the biggest scandal in the countries.

At this time, a middle-aged staff member of the U.S. Embassy hurriedly walked in, and when he saw the strange atmosphere in the hall, his brows couldn't help frowning. Judging from his walking style, he should be from a military background.

"Mr. Ambassador, this is an urgent telegram from the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo!" The middle-aged soldier walked up to Ambassador Jack and whispered.

"Great!" Ambassador Jack was overjoyed, this telegram could not have come at a better time. If it's a little later, God knows what these fiery ambassadors will do. If the ambassadors of various countries really get into a fight in the US embassy, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to absolve himself of his responsibilities as ambassador to China.

Ambassador Jack opened the message, read it carefully, and then said aloud: "Ambassadors, I, the Ambassador of the United States of America to Japan, have sent an urgent telegram. Journalists who entered the Japanese army have news coming! ”

All eyes immediately focused on Ambassador Jack, after all, they had gathered here and waited for so long to wait for this news. This news is related to their future attitude towards the Chinese government in Beijing.

"I know what you're thinking, but unfortunately, I want to tell you that the Chinese's reports are basically true. A telegram came from the gallant correspondent of the United States of America who had entered the Japanese army that the Japanese Tenth Division had indeed suffered heavy losses. There were probably not even 10,000 troops, and there were a large number of wounded. The ashes of the war dead filled a battleship. Originally, the bodies of the Chinese in the camp were buried in a huge grave, and judging that the losses of the Chinese were also quite a lot, I am afraid that there were more than 10,000 people. From this point of view, the telegrams of the Chinese can basically be trusted. Ambassador Jack said.

Although they speculated in their hearts about the possibility of this matter, after the truth was confirmed, these ambassadors still found it difficult to accept, after all, a strong country launched a war against a weak country, and the result turned out to be a strong country with heavy losses and a weak country victorious, which was simply unacceptable to them.

"Could it be that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army has declined?" British Ambassador Smith whispered. Unfortunately, in this silent hall, everyone naturally heard his words clearly. The German ambassador, who already had an opinion on the British, said sarcastically: "The Japanese army is as strong as our German army, while in the West, our German troops drive those countries that claim to be world powers like rabbits." ”

"Whose country do you say knows only to run away like a rabbit?" The British ambassador was furious.

"Humph! If you don't know, don't talk nonsense. If Asia can produce a Japan, can't there be another China? Anyway, our Germanic Empire no longer has any interests in the Far East. Not like you. For the rise of a great power in the Far East, there are always some countries in the world that have to pay the price. The German ambassador looked at the members of the Entente and said with mockery on his face. These countries, which think they have hugged Britain's thigh, will have a bad day.

"You ......" the British ambassador was furious.

The German ambassador didn't bother with him at all, said goodbye to the American ambassador cordially, and then turned around and simply left. The Allied countries on the German side also left with the German ambassador.

A tremor spread throughout China as the banquet ended.
