This time, the Russians were really serious! Very serious! They felt the pressure of Japan's rise. Russia is very strong, but it is too weak in the Far East. And this time, it is probably the best opportunity for the Russians to overwhelm Japan! Japan has had a bad relationship with almost all major powers that can affect the Far East! The British were unprecedentedly isolated and dared not act rashly. The Japanese have been fighting for nearly a year, how much more strength do they have? Nicholas II even had the idea of ​​directly knocking their opponents to the ground. Of course, this is just to drink too much and think about it.

Russia's most elite cruiser fleet has entered the Far East, with the flagship of the ten-ton armored cruiser Liurik, and the main force of the two Munich-class armored cruisers ordered from Germany. In addition, the two battleships of the Far East Fleet and a number of other auxiliary warships, this force is enough to crush the Japanese fleet at its peak. Isn't the Japanese fleet still easy to capture at this time?

A powerful fleet of 2 battleships and 3 cruisers first set off from Vladivostok and then passed through the Tsuguku Strait specifically, then turned south and headed towards Tokyo Bay! After wandering around the center of Japan, it even entered the Seto Inland Sea for a while! Maybe some people said this was not invasion? That's right, you said, this was invasion, you come and beat me! The Russians at this time wanted the Japanese to take action first!

Just when the Russians came to the door to slap in the face, the enemy of Germany and France also took action near the Qing Dynasty. Scher, who had two cruisers, never dreamed that he would act with the French fleet! Under the command of Major General Jean Eldrin, the two French cruisers joined the patrol of the "Bohai Non-war Zone" under the command of Major General Jean Eldrin. Of course, this patrol activity was to put it bluntly, an armed parade, and there was almost no possibility of fighting with the Japanese!

While taking action at sea, the Russian Army and the Blue Legion also began to step up their oppression of the Japanese First Army located on the Liaodong Peninsula! More than 20,000 Russian troops and the Blue Legion began to slowly advance to the south! From the perspective of troops alone, the number of this army is equivalent to the entire Japanese army in Liaodong. After obtaining a large amount of arms transported from Germany, this Russian army in good condition has a chance to kill the already exhausted Japanese group!

"Damn, what do you mean?" The Japanese government immediately began to conduct diplomatic mediation and tried to split the Three Kingdoms Alliance, but like in history, it was useless. Then he looked for the British father, hoping that his godfather could show him the situation. Faced with such a situation, the British were also afraid. Now the power of the Three Kingdoms fleet has stabilized the British fleet deployed in the Far East. A simple powerful lineup of two battleships and five armored cruisers can sway the Philippine Fleet and the Japanese fleet!

"Well, godson, think of your own way! Dad has something to do, so I'll do it first!" The British did a very neat job and directly let the Philippe Mant fleet return to the area south of the Yangtze River. You are just making trouble in the north, and I don't care. The British choose to be neutral. This is not because the British don't want to help, but they really can't help!

Then, the Russian and German ambassador to Japan issued a note similar to an ultimatum almost at the same time. The content of the note seemed so righteous and stern: "Didn't you say to ensure the independence and territorial integrity of North Korea? Didn't you say not for the land of the Qing Dynasty? Now that North Korea has independent, what do you want? Now I am ensuring the territorial integrity of the Qing Dynasty. If you are not convinced, let's try it?"

"This is simply unreasonable!" Yes, Japan, which has never been rational, has begun to complain about others being unreasonable, but this is useless! If the Japanese government in history began to negotiate in a relatively friendly external environment, then this time, before the armistice, Japan was already in a huge passive state.

In history, the Japanese dared to make a fuss during negotiations, saying that they would directly transport 100,000 troops through sea and land to attack Beijing. They could also send warships to attack Taiwan while negotiating, but this plane is there? The Japanese army on the Liaodong Peninsula has begun to dig pits and prepare to defend, while the Japanese fleet is shrinking to the local area, and then carefully stare at the Russian fleet while avoiding fire!

The negotiations are finally about to start, but the conditions for the start this time are very bad! The Japanese were almost held onto the negotiating table by a third party with a gun on his forehead! And this time the Japanese could not even choose the negotiation location! Originally, Hiromoto Ito and others planned to let the Qing Dynasty go to Japan for negotiations, but Li Hongzhang first sent a newspaper saying that he would go to Vladivostok! Is this fair? Everyone chose the third country as the negotiation location.

"Damn it! The Russians have all shot my guns at my forehead. Do you think it's fair?! What's the point of being fair!" The Japanese were not vague and immediately made a counter-suggestion, why don't you go to the UK to discuss. Although the British were helpless, it was okay to show that a negotiation location was still possible.

"Or, let's do it, everyone step back and talk to the United States." In the end, the two sides coordinated for a long time and finally found a relatively neutral country, and the distance between the two countries and the United States seemed to be much closer than that between Britain. So, the representatives of both sides finally began to travel from their hometowns to Los Angeles, the United States. This time, in order to ensure the "fairness of the talks", Britain, Germany, Russia, France and the United States will send representatives to "watch" the entire meeting process.

"Actually, if we insist, we can completely suppress Japan to talk in Vladivostok. But why would the government compromise in the end?" Earl Schelling said with some confusion as he looked at the telegram sent from Berlin.

"In addition, in his letter to the Crown Prince, His Highness also stated that he could accept negotiations in the United States. What is the reason for this? What are the benefits of giving up our home court advantage?" Looking at the silent Ruprecht, Earl Schelling continued.

"I hope the negotiation will take a longer time. Our people have already started to take action, but you know, whether it is the transfer of funds or the operation, it takes time. We need to make a time difference! During this period, we have to release some good news for Japan to make more money."

"Of course, another reason is that I don't trust Russia. The Russians are too capricious. If they control the situation in Vladivostok, I may not be able to gain much benefit in the end. In a relatively neutral place, we can gain support from Russia. The United States is worried about Russia and has no malicious intentions towards us. In order to balance the pressure on Britain and the United States, Russia and France must compromise with us. This is the result." Ruprecht said.

"In addition, if you contact Viscount Cino of Ronaldo, we need first-hand information on the progress of the negotiation. If possible, we have to interfere with the negotiation process. In addition, the US representative Stinson is a trustworthy person, and his DuPont consortium is our partner." After Ruprecht said that the Count could leave, and then asked the waiter to bring Count Laura in. Now it is finally time to harvest!
