[1173 British order]
Princess Katrina Kaifu nodded and lay beside Emperor Hua. Huang has always attached great importance to Japan. Princess Katrina Kaifu is very clear about this. She basically agreed with what Emperor Hua said, but Princess Katrina Kaifu did not take Hirobuki Ito seriously. "I think that if we can make up the Olympics, have more contact with the British and French governments, and then get the support of the German and Austrian countries, our mission will be completed this time. It is not a stupid country, it should be easy to make choices between China and Japan, right? Even though the trade between China and Britain and France has been normalized now and they cannot sell opium, the market in China is so big, what can the Japanese give to Britain and France? I don't think Hirobuki Ito can have any good solutions."
"Don't underestimate Hiromitsu Ito. Hiromitsu Ito has done a lot of things well. Even if Hiromitsu Ito now has full control of Japan's cabinet, the situation in Japan can still be improved." The cute president frowned, feeling that Princess Katrina Kaifu's idea was a bit dangerous. Even though Emperor Hua has gone through so many difficult years today, he still dared not be careless at all. The imprint of history is so great that he dare not forget it for a time traveling giant like the cute president.
"Your Majesty is right, but please relax. Our situation is much better now, right?" Princess Katrina Kaif smiled, "Didn't Xuan Jianzhang have already gained a foothold in Kyushu Island? After this winter, our next batch of arms will be sent to Japan soon, and more than 600,000 Chinese people have already taken root in Kyushu Island."
"This is also the reason why I have to take down Kyushu Island. Either I don't go to Japan, and if I want to take it, I will take down a complete land. They will fight every few days, and the Chinese country in the province will be dragged into the quagmire of war." The cute president said with a firm look.
"Well, your Majesty, let's sleep. Step by step, we are richer than Japan. We have diplomacy, except for strength, spend money. In these two points, we are stronger than the Japanese." Princess Katrina Kaif smiled, "The Japanese even have a problem with eating."
The Japanese really are not even a problem with eating, they can borrow money!
This time, Hirobu Ito visited Europe, the task was arduous, and he even borrowed a lot from British banks.
The British did not want to be involved in the war, but the British government was very afraid of China's expansion. More than 80% of the members of MPs agreed to suppress China, but more than half of the people opposed directly joining the war. In this way, supporting Japan and suppressing China became the tacit understanding of the British Parliament.
King George I of Greece was close to China. The prime minister of the Greek Kingdom, Tricuspis, changed his attitude towards China and actively worked on the establishment of the Olympic Committee Organizing Committee for the Emperor. This was originally a favorable news for Emperor Hua to visit Europe for diplomacy, but the Greek Kingdom was too small. It should be seen that it should be the attitude of the great powers.
Huahuang received bad news.
"Your Majesty, the British Parliament has passed a bill to order the Chinese army and Chinese people to withdraw from Japan before June 1, 1879, otherwise, Britain will increase its military aid to Japan." Princess Katrina Kaif worriedly handed a message to the Emperor Hua.
Emperor Hua took over the document and diplomacy had just made some progress. Everything will change when the British do this!
Emperor Hua didn't say anything.
"There is also bad news. On February 4, 1879, the French Republic came to power (this was the first time the republican ruled after the establishment of the Third Republic). Rufeli accepted the invitation and joined the cabinet to serve as Minister of Education and Minister of Foreign Affairs." Princess Katrina Kaf continued to report, all of which were the latest information.
Emperor Hua did not know much about history, but he had contacted Ru Feili once in Europe and knew that he was an extreme expansionist politician, which was definitely not good news for China.
Hua Huang's eyebrows and eyes frowned. This was the expression that Princess Katrina Kaifu rarely saw on Hua Huang's face.
Emperor Hua did not look down on the French too highly, but when France and the British were tied together, this big partner was still very scary.
After the French-Prussian War, France's national strength was recovering rapidly, and it has been accelerating in recent years!
Although Ru Feili is a little crazy, she does have a few tricks when dealing with internal affairs.
Rufery was a politician in the early days of the Third Republic of France, and was famous for implementing educational laws against the church and expanding colonies.
Rufeli was born in Vosges Saint-Dieye, Vosges Province, and studied law. He obtained the qualification of a lawyer in 1854. However, he soon gave up this path and entered politics. He wrote articles for many newspapers and became well-known.
He criticized the Second Empire in extremely fierce language and attacked political enemies (especially the Baron Ottoman, the governor of Seine).
Rufeili later served as French Prime Ministers two times, and was famous for promoting the separation of church and church, colonial expansion, and free secular compulsory education.
In terms of education, he first eliminated the influence of clergy in universities, and then he established a new educational system.
Ru Feili also reorganized the Public Education Commission and proposed a bill to change the university management charter.
However, the Parliament rejected the bill because Article 7 of the bill abolished the right to run schools of denominations that were not recognized by the government, which was opposed by many parliamentary representatives.
However, the Ferris Law he later proposed was supported by parliament and passed smoothly, establishing free, secular compulsive primary education.
He designated French as the teaching language, which made some dialects near extinction and was criticized by later generations.
However, Rufeli's decision also united the people of France and consolidated the status of the French nation-state.
Among the past Prime Ministers of the Third Republic, Rufeili's second-largest term was second only to his political enemy Clumenceau, which shows how high his status was.
The British's attitude towards China has become tougher. This must be Hirobuki Ito played a role in it. The French government has changed its course again. The tough Ru Feili came to power and will definitely continue to implement the policy of suppressing China. The cute president entered the deep thought.
Princess Katrina Kaif saw that Emperor Hua did not speak, and she did not dare to speak.
Princess Katrina Kaif quietly retreated.
"What's wrong?" Catherine asked when she saw Princess Katrina Kaif's face suddenly became bad.
Princess Katrina Kaif shook her head and said nothing.
After two hours, Emperor Hua still didn't think of any good idea and walked out of the room by himself.
Before receiving the instructions from Emperor Hua, Princess Katrina Kaif did not dare to tell the other people in the visiting delegation this latest information, and everyone chatted casually.
Hua Huang said: "I'll hold a meeting and tell everyone about the situation just now. A person's brain is definitely not as useful as everyone's brain."
Princess Katrina Kaif stood up and nodded, "Okay."
The visiting delegation included not only people from the President’s Secretariat, but also people from Xuan Yuewu and a group of foreign ministry, as well as more than a dozen Chinese scientists from the Beijing Institute of Technology.
Although scientists are not of great help to diplomacy, the top leaders who can enter the Beikong administration are all scientists valued by Emperor Hua, and they can also listen to their opinions.
In this era, apart from a very small number of people who know more about foreign countries, they are even scientists.
Among them, the one whom Hua Emperor valued the most was his second brother Xuan Yuewu, followed by Xu Jianyin.
Xu Jianyin's courtesy name was Zhonghu. He was from Wuxi, Jiangsu. His father Xu Shou was a pioneer in modern chemistry in China. He was influenced by his father since childhood and loved natural sciences.
In 1861, he worked with his father in Anqing Arsenal.
In 1875, he served as the general manager of the Shandong Machinery Bureau.
After the founding of China, as a representative of local scientists, he has been working in Beijing Chongzhong and has long joined the Huacui Party.
In 1879, this time he accompanied the Emperor of China to Europe to prepare for technical inspections of powerful countries such as Germany, Britain, and France.
Xu Jianyin used Western law to make a new presidential 1878 rifle and cast steel in Beihong.
He has translated more than 40 types, including "The Complete Book of Shipbuilding", "New Book of Military Studies", "Chemistry Origin", and "The Essentials of Water Mines".
The fireworks in China were first developed and improved by Xu Jianyin.
"The situation is very serious now. I have just made some progress with the royal family of the Greek Kingdom and their cabinet. I just took the opportunity of preparing for the Olympic Committee Organizing Committee to have a lot of relationships with the politicians of European countries. However, the political trends in the UK and France are now very unfavorable to China. The so-called emperor and minister are now a critical moment. There is a question of where to sit on the butt. Any decision we make now will mostly affect the fate of China in the next few years, even more than ten years, or decades. Let's discuss it together." Emperor Hua said heavyly.
There were more than 30 people attending the meeting, each of whom had a serious expression. For such a big thing, who dared to speak casually?
Emperor Hua looked around and felt anxious. This was the case with people. When he couldn't think of a solution, he always expected someone to teach him how to do it. Emperor Hua used to listen to Princess Katrina Kaifu's opinions, but this time the matter was too big, and Princess Katrina Kaifu had no idea.
Catherine wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say. This was a good opportunity to show off, so she gently touched Zhao Qingluo's arm.
Zhao Qingluo knew that Catherine asked her to speak, but Zhao Qingluo was not very clear about the situation in Europe. Although she had read a lot of information during this period, she was still confused. How could she dare to speak casually at such an important moment?
The cute CEO looked at Princess Katrina Kaif, "Princess, tell me."
"It is better to be quiet than a movement. I think, regardless of the British and French, the British should increase military assistance to Japan and make them increase. Japan is close to China, and now it has passed the most critical moment of China. If we only face a battlefield in Japan, China's industry will not be very difficult." Princess Katrina Kaif took a tough attitude.
Emperor Hua did not nod or shook his head. He guessed that Princess Katrina Kaif had such an attitude, but Emperor Hua needed a way to get on the shuttle bus from the powerful factions.
Emperor Hua even now wants to go to Berlin to meet Bismarck, the old brother, and to separate from Britain and France, and to get support from countries like Germany to be strong.
"Is there any?" Emperor Hua couldn't help asking.
Princess Katrina Kaif felt a little embarrassed and said, "Well, no more. For the time being, I only think of so much. As for Germany and Austro-Hungarian Empire, even if we go to find them now, it will probably be of little use, and it will make us too anxious. Why not follow the pre-developed itinerary and see how many countries can attend the meeting of the Organizing Committee of the Communist Party of China this time?"
While everyone was having a meeting, a female secretary from the President's Secretariat signaled at the door.
Princess Katrina Kaif knew she was looking for her, so she hurriedly got up and brought back another bad news.
Emperor Hua knew that it was not a good thing when he saw Princess Katrina Kaif's expression, and said decisively: "Tell me directly, there are no outsiders here."
"Just just now, the prime minister of the Greek Kingdom, Tricuspis, asked someone to send a message and canceled the preparation meeting of the Olympic Committee organizing committee in Greece." Princess Katrina Kaif said in disappointment.
Chapter completed!
