Chapter 1160
Dengzhou.
Brooke looked at the wide asphalt avenue, and the cars passing by felt like they were dreamy.
Now this is his third time being ordered to go to the Chinese Empire to negotiate, but this time it is the most uncomfortable.
When he came to Qingzhou, Prussia, Austria and France had already become a pot of porridge in Europe.
According to their expectations, even if Tsarist Russia does not participate, Prussia and Austria will be enough to defeat Henry and eliminate the largest unstable element in Europe.
But unexpectedly, senior officers from Prussia and Austria were frequently shot and killed on the battlefield, which caused the command of the two countries to be in chaos.
However, at this time, Prussia showed its strength for many years. The Prussian army equipped with rear firing rifles was not weaker than Henry's army, and even gained a little advantage.
Therefore, even though the senior generals suffered heavy losses, Prussia and Henry still did not decide the outcome on the battlefield.
But Austria was not so lucky. With the firearms behind Henry's army two generations and the frequent deaths of officers, the Austrian army quickly changed from offense to defense after entering France.
After analyzing the current situation, Brooke and Vitomia believe that it will be only a matter of time before Henry replaces France.
However, France, Prussia and Austria will take some time to recuperate after the war, and there is no hope of joining forces to fight against the Eastern Empire.
It was precisely because of this concern that he came here again.
"In two years, I didn't expect the change here to be so big." Brooke felt a little sad. He looked up to the Eastern Empire now, just as the natives looked up to Britain.
On the streets of Dengzhou, full of tall buildings, he suddenly felt that he was very small.
Unlike the previous two times, this time their arrival was not received by any imperial officials. This cold treatment made Brooke understand that in the eyes of the Empire, Britain had any qualifications for negotiations.
After sighing slightly, Brooke led his entourage to Dengzhou Station to purchase tickets and boarded the shuttle bus to Qingzhou.
At the same time, when Brooke arrived in Dengzhou, Xiao Ming received a call.
After hanging up the phone, he sneered and said to Pang Yukun: "These British guys don't cry until they see the coffin, and they don't want toast to drink and drink."
"No, if you don't do a good business, you have to do something wrong. This time we must hit them hard." Pang Yukun said coldly.
Xiao Ming nodded and said, "This is naturally. You can formulate strict negotiation conditions. If they agree, continue to block the UK until they agree."
"Yes, the emperor." Pang Yukun said with a wicked smile.
Brooke arrived in Qingzhou in the afternoon. Like last time, neither Xiao Ming nor Pang Yukun went to see Brooke, but still asked Tang Wenjie to show up.
In the morning, Pang Yukun had already revealed the conditions for the negotiation to him, and now he knew it.
In the conference room of the Wei Family Restaurant, Tang Wenjie and Brooke's men sat opposite each other.
Facing Brooke, Tang Wenjie deliberately showed a very arrogant attitude. The British actions made the empire unshamed. Facing the British envoys, there was no need for them to greet them with a smile.
"Bang!" After sitting down, Tang Wenjie threw the drafted treaty directly in front of Brooke. He said: "This is the condition of the empire. If you can't agree, please go back."
Tang Wenjie's rude movement immediately made the British envoys look angry, but they could only bear it.
Taking a deep breath, Brooke trembled his hands and turned on the treaty. After looking at the first page, he closed the document angrily.
"Impossible, you are a humiliation to Britain, and we cannot lend London to you." Brooke roared like an angry lion.
Before coming, he had already thought of the Empire's harsh conditions, but he had never thought of the Empire's harsh conditions.
It would be fine to rent London, but the rent for the Empire to rent London was actually a golden dragon, which was simply a humiliation to them.
Tang Wenjie looked indifferent, "If you can't accept it, you can leave now. This is the conditions of the empire and will not be changed."
Brooke held the treaty tightly, and he shouted: "You guys are too bullying!"
"Bang!" Tang Wenjie then slapped the table and stood up, "It's too much to deceive people? After signing the treaty last time, the empire thought you would be honest, but what about you? The diplomats who threatened the empire seized the imperial fleet. For this reason, Commander Yue Yun, the commander of the empire, was directly dismissed. In comparison, you are too much to deceive people."
Brooke was speechless when he heard this.
Seeing this, Tang Wenjie snorted heavily and said, "You haven't finished reading the treaty yet. Keep reading. This is just the first one. What else is there? If you want to discuss it this time, let's discuss it together. Don't go back and forth, it's quite far."
Brooke felt as if he was in a cold winter. He continued to watch. In addition to renting London, the Empire also asked Britain to abolish the British pound and circulate the Empire's Golden Dragon as a trade currency. The market required Britain to abolish all self-protection trade policies, give the Empire the most favorable treatment of the Empire, and not impose tariffs on the Empire's goods. In terms of military, Britain is not allowed to have regular troops, only retain a small number of troops to defend themselves, and the military industry is not allowed to develop any weapons of destruction that is threatening to the Empire. At the same time, the Empire is allowed to station troops in the United Kingdom.
After reading these, Brooke felt that he had a heart disease almost committed, but the treaty did not end there. In the last article, the Empire demanded the trial of the war criminals who initiated the war. The Empire's purpose was to use this as an excuse to suppress the hardliners in Britain and support the pro-imperial faction to come to power.
Tang Wenjie was drinking tea leisurely while observing Brooke's expression.
The purpose of these treaties is obvious. Once Britain agrees to these conditions, Britain becomes a colony of the empire.
The empire's choice has its own profound meaning.
First of all, Britain is a threat to the empire in Europe. In this way, Britain will be completely castrated by the empire. Second, Britain has always been a messenger in Europe in history and has always been responsible for messing up Europe.
The empire left this nail and could use it when a strong country appeared in Europe, so that the empire could save a lot of effort in Europe.
"I can't agree, and I won't agree." Brooke's voice trembled a little. Once a document is signed, he will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever.
