Chapter 1051: Aggrieved Tsarist Russia

Eventually, the four banks signed a loan agreement with the Chinese Empire, and the 21 million pounds loan will be delivered to the Chinese Empire in batches over the next three years. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

21 million pounds, plus 20 million pounds of national debt, together, the total value of more than 200 million taels of silver, in the next five to ten years, the Chinese Empire will no longer have any worries about the funds for the construction of the railway, although the amount of loans is huge, plus the previous Prussian loans and part of the French Empire's loans, the total value has been close to 300 million taels of silver, but the Chinese Empire has never been worried, this loan can not be repaid.

You must know that this money is completely different from the loans during the Treaty of Shimonoseki and the Treaty of Xincho, at that time the loans were all for the repayment of war reparations, which was a country's economic blood loss, but this loan will be used for the economic and people's livelihood construction of the Chinese Empire, and will give wings to the development of the Chinese Empire.

After the loan was obtained, the distribution of the next railway project was much simpler, and according to the secret agreement between the Chinese Empire and the British, it was naturally the railway companies of the British Empire that got the biggest cake.

The three railway companies of the British won the railway construction contract of 10,000 kilometers of the Chinese Empire in the next ten years, which was only handed over to the British to undertake the railway project, plus the British Railway Company itself invested in the construction of the railway, the mileage is even larger, the British have made up their minds to get back the losses in the war from the railway project of the Chinese Empire.

The 10,000-kilometer railway construction project, according to the British budget, will exceed 20 million taels of silver in profit alone! As for the railway projects invested and built by themselves and jointly invested with the Chinese, they also contain huge profits!

However, Guo Ye is very open-minded, the current Chinese Empire is too backward, even ten years later, the railway engineering technicians and workers that the Chinese Empire can train are also very limited, with the help of the British, the railways will be built first, and the rest is a later story, after all, the benefits that the British can take away are all small amounts, and the real big winner is definitely the Chinese Empire, just like the United States, a large number of railways are also invested and built by Britain and France, and Britain and France make profits at the same time. But it greatly promoted the development of the industrial economy of the United States, and finally reached the top of the world thirty years later, this time, it is necessary to see whether the United States can reach the top of the world, or the Chinese Empire can reach the top of the world!

In addition to the British, the Americans also got a lot of orders from it, although they did not have the appetite of the British, but they also occupied a lot of share, and the French and Prussians also benefited, and the four countries divided up the railway mileage of 30,000 kilometers in the next ten years, that is to say, within ten years, even if there was a railway mileage led by the Chinese Empire itself, it had reached 30,000 kilometers, 30,000 kilometers, that is, 300 million taels of silver, of course, even more, maybe 400 million taels, because in the high mountains, In the desert area, the cost of building a railway will increase significantly, far exceeding the budget of the plains!

Even if all the loans are in place, the Huaxia Empire still has to spend a huge amount of financial revenue in its own budget to top it up!

In order to be able to build the empire's railway network extending in all directions as soon as possible, Guo Ye also fought hard this time!

The government-led railway construction plan, coupled with the construction plan of the private sector and local governments, within ten years, exceeded 50,000 kilometers, which is simply easy and absolutely achievable!

The negotiations that lasted for a month finally came to an end, and the most unlucky thing was the small country, which was busy in vain, and the big cake was not grabbed at all, and it could only drink some soup and water, of course, no one was as unlucky as Tsarist Russia, and did not grab the benefits, but was humiliated, and ran back to the Tsarist Russian Empire.

St. Petersburg, the Tsar's Palace!

Alexander II threw a wine glass to the ground, shame, great shame! This Chinese Empire did not take the Tsarist Empire into account at all! Two times in a row, they gave Tsarist Russia a huge humiliation, not to mention, the most unbearable thing is that the envoy sent to Mongolia by Guo Ye, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, actually went on a killing spree and shot the nobles sent by Tsarist Russia to contact the Mongolian princes on the spot, and the remaining few people were all driven out of the Mongolian plateau and directly escorted out of the country!

It's too ruthless, this hand is too hard!

"The Chinese Empire! Lao Tzu definitely didn't play with you this time! ”

Alexander said viciously, "Trievich, immediately send an edict ordering Skobelev to hurry up the time to mobilize troops, it is difficult to attack the east of the Ussuri River, but we don't have so many taboos about attacking Outer Mongolia!" Once the time is ripe, launch an attack on Outer Mongolia and swallow the Outer Mongolian Plateau in one go! ”

Foreign Minister Gorchakov on the side was taken aback, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, by all means, now is definitely not the time to go to war against the Chinese Empire, we have just recovered from the Crimean War, and it is really not suitable to start the war again, especially with the Chinese Empire, we don't have such a strong strength now, you know, the British, French, Western and Japanese allied forces have been defeated by the Chinese Empire, and our single country can be the opponent of the Chinese Empire?" ”

"Gorchakov! Are you scared? Hmph, Britain, France, and Japan only dispatched more than 100,000 troops, and they did it in the area where Guo Ye had the strongest control in the Gyeonggi area, and this time we dispatched 200,000 troops to fight against the Chinese Empire on the Mongolian Plateau! Their forces are now scattered over the vast territory of the Huaxia Empire, even if they want to concentrate their forces, it is impossible to be urgent, just the strength of a few divisions in the north, they are definitely not our opponents! ”

Alexander snorted coldly.

Gorchakov hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, even if we send 200,000 troops, we are not sure of victory, you don't forget that they are equipped with powerful artillery and heavy machine gunners, which is enough to ensure that they are equal to us in the war, if we want to start a war, we only have one chance, that is, when the Chinese Empire has a strong enemy invasion, we take advantage of the weakness to enter, so that we can have a chance!" Wait, Your Majesty, the best thing we can do is to step up our preparations and wait for the right time! ”

"Hey!"

Alexander II slammed his fist on the table, this time it was too embarrassing, wait, wait until we have accepted enough heavy machine guns, and that's when we want to retaliate against the Chinese Empire!
