Chapter 38: Eastern and Western

I shivered for a moment, but now I don’t know who is going to be in trouble again.

...

The civil war broke out so quickly. In late April, shortly after China signed treaties with the Ottoman Empire and the Tsarist Russian Empire, the civil war broke out suddenly.

China and the Ottoman Empire signed the "China-Australia Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation". The two sides agreed. In the spirit of friendship and mutual assistance, the ports of the two countries were obliged to provide necessary assistance to each other's merchant ships and military ships. The two countries sent permanent ambassadors to each other. The Ottoman Empire set up an embassy in Beijing, China, and China set up consulates and consulates in Istanbul and Bosarro respectively. China and the Ottoman Empire sent army officer groups to each other's army for exchange and study, etc.

Istanbul is the capital of the Ottoman Empire, spanning the Eurasian continent, and the Black Sea enters the throat of the Mediterranean. Due to the current transportation conditions, it naturally belongs to Europe and the Mediterranean.

Bosaro is the port city of Basra, Iraq's Persian Gulf. From Basra, you can enter the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean and belong to Asia.

Ye Zhao set up consulates in these two cities, naturally because of its importance.

According to the treaty, it seems that the Chinese fleet has supply points in the Persian Gulf and even the Mediterranean, but in fact, it is not true that Malacca is firmly controlled by the British, so it is impossible for the Chinese navy to enter the Indian Ocean.

This is not to say that the British hinder you, but just a replenishment problem. As long as the colonial ports under the control of the United Kingdom do not allow you to supply the fleet, not to mention fresh water, but to only talk about power, relying solely on auxiliary coal ships to supply coal, it is very difficult for the navy to enter the Indian Ocean and dock in Basra in the Arabian Sea.

Therefore, this treaty has more symbolic meanings regarding port supply and may be more applicable to merchant ships.

As for the mutual officer exchange group, Ye Zhao hopes that the generals of Pingyuan Army can come out and take a look. The main thing is to gain knowledge and gain insights into the different military styles and military management methods of countries around the world.

This will also be the first time that the Chinese people have entered Europe. After all, the exchanges with Prussia are more unilateral, with generals sent by Prussia to teach in the martial arts hall and participating in the editing of the textbooks of the Emperor's School.

Whether the treaty between China and the Ottoman Empire is more practical or symbolic, it must have hurt the sensitive nerves of the Russians. In the eyes of the Russians, China's intention to form an alliance with the Ottoman Empire to fight it is very obvious.

But shortly after the signing of this treaty, the Chinese negotiating group, which had been fighting with the Russians, suddenly offered goodwill and was willing to release all Russian prisoners of war unconditionally.

Therefore, the Central Asia and West Asia peace agreement between the two countries was soon signed. The two sides stopped hostile in Central Asia and West Asia, and China unconditionally released all Russian prisoners of war (even Russian prisoners of war captured during the Chinese civil war). Both countries agreed to the borders of Central Asia and West Asia, which were investigated by the Russian Governor Orenburg and the Minister of the Northern Turkic Affairs of China.

On the day of signing the peace agreement, Viscount Brynn left Beijing and returned to China to report his work. Thinking about it, he breathed a sigh of relief. The most difficult days finally passed. He was sad about China, a hot potato, and this sad thing, and he just wanted to return home soon and win the trust and support of the Tsar again.

And just on the day when the Sino-Russia Central and Western Asia Peace Treaty was signed, a civil war broke out in the country.

War was not initiated by the Chinese. In today's *** country, various contradictions such as "Ranxue", "Chinesexue", "innovation", "samurai", "bourgeois merchant", "nationalists" have accumulated for a long time, and have long replaced the original struggle between founding and expelling the barbarians. Under the oppression of the Chinese, the powerlessness of the emperor and the shogunate made some famous people think a lot.

Under the bloody government suppression of the new group, the new team leader Toshiba Sui San was pessimistic and disappointed with the weakness of the shogunate and the emperor. He even heard that the emperor was ready to accept the Chinese proposal and was demoted to the king of the *** Kingdom. (In fact, this news was spread by the Chinese).

Turkishang was deeply hit and immediately contacted the patriots, went north to the Hokkien House, conquered the "Five Concepts" of Western-style armed castles, and called on patriots all over the world to establish a free country and "drive the Chinese out of the four islands of the ***". The patriots immediately gathered four or five thousand armed forces, most of whom were members of armed organizations that resisted China, and then established the "Haoi Republic". Turkishang was elected as the president. At the same time, Turkishangishang sent a note to Britain, France, and Russia, asking for recognition and support from the three countries.

Hokkaido.

The warrior rebelled, and the shogunate naturally ordered various vassals to attack. Who knew that the Daming of the Three Families of the Iwaki, Iwaki and Tsukaya, which were close to Hokkaido, announced the abolition of the samurai system, and the Daming of the Tsukaya vassal, Sakai Kyoi, was the general, formed a coalition to attack the Shogunate.

The Tsuruka sanctuary was not strong at first, but in recent years, Sakai Keiyoshi encouraged trade, liberated the status of merchants, and was also keen to invite Chinese people to invest. However, Sakai Keiyoshi was not a pro-China faction, but only cooperated with Chinese merchants based on interests. With his management over the years, the Tsuruka sanctuary gradually became a powerful sanctuary in the southeast of Honshu Island. Seeing the chaos in the country, the ambitious Sakai Keiyoshi began his journey to Beijing.

Tadahoki Maino, the lord of the Nagaoka vassal, who was close to Izuha, was the most loyal daimyo to the shogunate. He and his elder Kawai Shinosuke established the Echigo Shikoku coalition, and a fierce war broke out with the anti-South Fan.

News came one by one, and Ye Zhaoxin said, it was indeed here.

Ye Zhao's attitude towards all vassal states was very clear, "coexistence and prosperity". This is not what the people of *** have said, but the real way to use China as the leader to drive their development, not only economic, but even ideological liberation. North Korea, Vietnam, Laos and even *** all benefited from China's development. Myanmar and Thailand are far away, but they have also been affected to a limited extent.

Due to historical connections among the vassal states, North Korea, Vietnam and Laos are the most loyal to China. Ye Zhao, the other vassal states, also hope that with the input of values, they will gradually recognize the Central Plains culture and become part of the Asian-East and South Asia Regional Alliance. This alliance is naturally the relationship between the Celestial Empire and the vassal states today. However, as the people of each vassal state are liberated and have an independent consciousness, they will be healthy to transform into an allied relationship dominated by China.

The Commonwealth has more than 50 countries with different cultural colors. Except for countries such as Australia, which were completely established by British colonists, Britain's majority of the ethnic groups in the federal government were colonized, far away from the ocean, and had extremely weak cultural identity. Despite this, the Commonwealth with the Queen of England as the highest head of state still exists, and the Queen of England is also the head of the dozen countries of its federal sovereign states.

With the influence of Chinese civilization in eastern Asia and southern Asia, as long as the empire's policies remain coherent, Ye Zhao does not think that he will become enemies with other allies. In the future, forming an economic community with China as the leader and close ties to the EU is almost a completely foreseeable result.

But the only thing I don’t want to worry about is ***. Because *** is different from North Korea, Vietnam and other countries, since the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Song Dynasty, *** people no longer respected the Central Plains civilization, and even more because of their invasion of North Korea, they once confronted the Ming Dynasty. This was almost unimaginable during the Tang and Song dynasties.

*** There is no vassal mentality towards the Central Plains. Although China is oppressing it with powerful force, if it is like treating North Korea, Vietnam and other countries, arming its new army to drive its economic development, a few years later, I am afraid that it will rise to the will of the Asian East again.

Therefore, it is necessary to tame it into a threat-free existence in the backyard before it is integrated into the Asian Order.

In order to maintain its division, China has set up agents in recent years to support China-China Daming. In China, various conflicts and conflicts are extremely chaotic. Now, with China's pressure, various contradictions are on the rise.

Why should we start to solve the stubborn problem of *** now? Establishing the Asian-Eastern Alliance against Russia is one aspect, and in addition, Prince Murohito is about to ascend to the throne of the Emperor, that is, Emperor Meiji.

Emperor Komei was getting worse and worse, and Murohito, the future Meiji, was a very courageous monarch. It should be easier to start solving the problem before he truly stepped onto the political stage.

The Qiuzhong faction headed by Tokata Sui San went to Hokkaido to establish a republic, which was beyond Ye Zhao's expectations. He thought to himself that he was all interested in Hokkaido. Because Ye Zhao knew that after the failure of the Shogunate in the Meiji Restoration War, some of the patriots loyal to the Shogunate ran to Hokkaido to establish a republic and elected the president themselves. However, the situation at that time was too late, and thousands of rebels persisted for less than half a year before they were extinguished by the Shogunate faction.

What Ye Zhao didn't know was that the important leaders in history for establishing the Hokkien Republic were the leader of the new group, Toshibashi, and the president was the then vice president of the shogunate naval Navy, Toshimoto Takeo, but now Toshimoto Takeo has died in the battle of the Chinese attack on the Nagasaki Naval Training Institute.

"Hokkaido Republic?" Ye Zhao looked at the telegram from *** and frowned slightly.

Li Xiaocun smiled and said, "This is a good opportunity to catch them all in one place."

Ye Zhao shook his head and said, "Let me think about it."
