On August 9, the most famous Han and Tang hotel in Beijing was booked for a huge sum of money. You know, this is one of the most luxurious hotels in China. It costs at least 50,000 yuan to book a room for one night. In this era
,This price is definitely a sky-high price.
At the entrance of the hotel, two short middle-aged men in tuxedo were waiting for the arrival of their guests. They were the people who booked the Han and Tang dynasties, Japanese Foreign Minister Shuzo Aoki and former Japanese Minister to China Taro Kawaguchi. They stood at the two.
At the door of the hotel, they were waiting for the guests while talking in a low voice. The guests they invited were the diplomatic officials of Britain, France, the United States and Russia this time. After China insisted on using tough measures against Japan and refused to let Japan go, Aoki
Zhou Zang and others had no choice but to take measures to save themselves. After hearing that China had put forward very harsh conditions on various countries, Aoki Shuzang believed that the opportunity had come. If all countries unite to put pressure on China, it might have occurred.
Very good results. Therefore, he spent 100,000 yuan to book a hotel in the Han and Tang dynasties, prepared this dance party, and invited foreign officials from all over the world to attend. All countries gave him very much face and expressed that they would participate in this one.
prom.
"Your Excellency, can those European and American ghosts join forces with the Empire to put pressure on the Chinese people? They are all people who forget their righteousness when they see profit and are not worthy of trust!" Kawaguchi Taro said in a low voice. The cost tonight,
It has reached 100,000 yuan, and 50,000 yuan for the venue. With other famous wines and food, cravings have cost a lot of money. When Japan is about to become hungry, it costs 100,000 yuan, which is equivalent to two.
150,000 yen was invited to participate in the dance. Kawaguchi Taro felt very painful when he thought about it.
"Kawaguchi. The empire has no way out now. This is the last chance for the empire. If the Japanese and powerful people cannot be tied together, once the Chinese and the great powers reach an agreement, the empire will be over!" Aoki Shuzo replied.
.His face was a little unfavorable because he found that what he was doing was like a mantis armed mantis chariot.
"Yes, Lord Lu! However, it may be very difficult to get the Chinese to agree to negotiate with the empire. The conditions offered by the Chinese to the great powers are very harsh, let alone the empire!" Kawaguchi Taro said. They came to the home.
When I met Wu Tingfang once, the conditions proposed by Wu Tingfang were obviously to destroy Japan.
"The more severe the conditions proposed by the Chinese people, the more beneficial it is to the empire. Although the great powers were in a disadvantaged position in this war, no other countries except Russia did not suffer much damage. If the Chinese and the great powers could not do so, they could not do so.
If we reach an agreement and continue the war, then China will not have the time and energy to attack the empire. Even if China is very powerful, they will not be able to delay it!" said Aoki Shuzang. China's development in recent years
Although it is very fast, the foundation is too thin after all, and there is still a big gap compared with the Western powers. Perhaps in a short period of time, China can gain the upper hand. But the longer the time delays, China cannot afford it. Therefore,
This is Japan's last chance. The reason why Aoki Shuzo held this dance was because he hoped that all countries could reach an agreement and fight with China to the end.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, after the night gradually fell, the heat gradually faded and the weather became cooler. The number of people on the streets gradually increased. The area where the Han Tang Hotel is located is the most prosperous street in Beijing.
There were also crowds of people on the street.
"Didi!" A car was lit and slowly driving on the street, and the driver kept pressing the horn. From the small flag on the front of the car, it can be seen that this car belongs to the Russian Embassy in China. When the Russian Foreign Minister arrived, he
After Beijing, the car was also driven out of the closed embassy for use by the Russian Foreign Minister.
Soon, the car stopped at the door of the Han Tang Hotel. Russian Foreign Minister Izvulsky and former Russian Minister to China Kasini walked out of the car. Aoki Shuzo and Kawaguchi Taro quickly met.
.
"Welcome to my dance with the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister!" Aoki Shuzo smiled.
"Your Excellency Aoki is so polite!" Russian Foreign Minister Izvulsky also said with a smile.
After a while of greeting, Russian Foreign Ministers Izvulsky and Kasini were invited to the hotel. As for the other members of the Russian mission to visit China, they came alone.
Subsequently, US Secretary of State John Sherman, former US Minister to China Sherlock, French Foreign Minister Alexander Ribo, and former French Minister to China Pierre, also arrived at the Han Tang Hotel. The arrival of guests made Aoki Shuzo
Taro Kawaguchi was very happy.
The last one to arrive, despite the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs prepared cars for them, Lord Lansdone insisted on using a four-wheeled carriage, as if this was the only way to show that
His aristocratic demeanor was the same. In fact, Lord Lancedon has not been well these days. When he reported the results of the negotiations to London, he was immediately scolded by Prime Minister Arthur Belford. The new British cabinet was
If the rule is unstable, the rule is still unstable and there is a possibility of being ousted at any time. If it is impossible to reach an agreement with China, which leads to China's attack on India or Australia, it will once again face huge pressure on the cabinet. In the UK, there is no ability to defend India and
In Australia, once these two important colonies fall, the angry people will definitely overthrow the cabinet again. At the same time, London is unacceptable to the conditions proposed by China. Myanmar and the Straits colonies were lost, and Britain also
I know I won't come back. However, the huge war reparations were not allowed to be paid by the UK. The cabinet asked Lord Lancedon to minimize the war reparations, preferably within 10 million pounds. This made Lord Lancedon very
In his opinion, this is simply an unsuccessful task.
When the British Foreign Secretary Lord Lance Dorn, the dance officially began. As the host, Shuzo Aoki made a passionate speech, wishing everyone a happy night. After that, the well-dressed diplomats,
After hugging their respective dance partners, they began to dance gracefully in the music. Fortunately, there were many women among the reporters left in Beijing from all over the country. In addition, there were also many foreign businessmen in Beijing. And this time, they were many of them on China.
The diplomat also brought his wife with him, otherwise he would not have been able to get so many female companions. If it really doesn't work, many people would have to pay to rent prostitutes to make up for the numbers.
Several foreign ministers did not linger with the ladies attending the dance, but were talking in a corner. There was no doubt that they were all under pressure from their respective homes, and everyone was asked to reach an agreement with China as soon as possible.
, and pay as little as possible at the least price. However, such contradictory requirements make everyone very embarrassed.
"Everyone, I heard that the conditions offered by the Chinese to you are very harsh, which is simply unacceptable to all countries. In my opinion, the Chinese are completely too arrogant. They have just obtained a little on the battlefield.
It’s just an advantage, it’s so arrogant, which is really angering. I think that countries should unite and put pressure on China to reclaim these harsh conditions!" As the master, Aoki Shuzo said first.
Everyone smiled, and they naturally knew what happened to Aoki Shuzo. If their countries could reach an agreement with China to end the war, then Japan would have to die. Although, countries did not want to see it.
When Japan perishes, I hope Japan can continue to restrain China. But now under this situation, they take care of themselves. As for Japan, they can only let themselves die.
"Everyone, I think this is a good solution. Russia cannot accept the conditions proposed by the Chinese. For this reason, His Majesty the Tsar did not hesitate to fight the Chinese to the death. If we unite, the Chinese should retreat!
"Russian Foreign Minister Izvulsky also agreed. Tsar Nicholas II did not agree with the conditions proposed by China, so there would be no ceasefire between Russia and China. Therefore, he had to think of other ways.
.And the joint pressure from all countries is undoubtedly a good way.
"I agree too! Although we cannot defeat China in this war, we must weaken China as much as possible. Once China gains enough benefits from us, China will surely take off quickly.
This is unacceptable to all countries. Therefore, reducing the losses of all countries will not only benefit the present, but also be more beneficial to the future!" US Secretary of State John Sherman also said. Once China takes off, the next war
, the United States still finds it difficult to defeat China. It may even be completely defeated by China. Therefore, the United States must find ways to curb China's development.
"Since everyone agrees, I agree too!" said Lord Lance Dorn. His heart was filled with sadness. When will the British Empire, the world's largest power, also need to unite with other countries?
It can suppress China, a country that has just begun to develop. At the beginning, no country in the world could be hostile to Britain. Once the fleet of the British Royal Navy appeared, all countries would have to accept the conditions of Britain.
"France also agrees with the alliance with all countries." French Foreign Minister Alexander Ribo also said. Among all countries, the conditions put forward by China to France can be said to be the most relaxed. Of course, if the losses can be further reduced, France will certainly not
Rejected.
Aoki Shuzo's face was filled with smiles, and everyone was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. After the talks, everyone began to enjoy a wonderful dance party. Delicious wine and food, as well as beautiful women, became the theme of tonight.
