One brigade has achieved so many results, which the Emperor did not expect when he gave the order to attack Japan.During the Battle of Kitakyushu Castle in Shimonoseki Castle, it was also during the negotiations of the Emperor Hua in Europe, and the Battle of Kitakyushu Castle in Shimonoseki Castle was also the first war of annihilation fought by the Chinese army in Japan, and this victory dealt a blow to the arrogance of the British who wanted to join forces with all the European powers to blockade China, strengthened the position of the Emperor in the European negotiations, and played an important role in the struggle of China for peace and democracy for the backward and small countries of the world.The Battle of Kitakyushu Castle was also the first large-scale battle of annihilation fought by the Chinese army in operations outside the mainland, and it provided a reference for the Chinese army's future operations, which was of great significance and experience.The main experience of the Chinese army in winning the battle when the total strength was not superior is: Division Commander Xuan Jianzhang's intelligence on the Japanese government army was accurate, the battle determination was correct, and the command was decisive; It cooperated well with Li Hongzhang's ruling government on Kyushu Island, had a clear idea of winning the first battle, and made sufficient preparations for the campaign; through the mobility of forces, as well as the full use of the role of local forces and militias in secondary directions; ensuring superiority in forces in the main operational directions; The use of siege reinforcements, siege reinforcements, forcing the Japanese emperor Praetorian Guard to break through the siege and other means to strive for the annihilation of the Japanese government army in the movement.After receiving a telegram from Japan, the Emperor of China, who was far away in Europe, fully and highly praised the victory in the Battle of Kitakyushu Castle at Shimonoseki Castle: "Look, Your Majesty is pleased. ”Gege covered his mouth and was happy, "I haven't seen Your Majesty so happy for a while." ”"Yes, this time, Your Majesty's situation in Europe should be able to improve."
Princess Katrina Kafu also answered.Catherine smiled at Emperor Hua and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. ”Li Taixi also hurriedly followed to congratulate, Zhao Qingluo was in a group of beautiful secretaries, and did not make a sound, and secretly glanced at Huahuang.President Meng stood up with a smile, "This is nothing, I have confidence in our Chinese army, but I don't know how much impact Japan's victory will have in Europe, according to the observation during this time, I feel that these European powers, in addition to Britain and France, are more concerned about Asia, Spain and the Netherlands have declined, and they are also more concerned, and the other powers Germany and Austria don't seem to care, and Tsarist Russia is now beyond their strength." ”Before the Emperor's words fell, Wu Tingfang, the deputy head of the diplomatic mission of the Emperor Hua on his current visit to Europe, came in, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Spain has sent a note inviting us to establish an embassy in Madrid. ”President Meng couldn't help but be overjoyed, Huaguo has its own offices in European countries, and the statistical bureaus are also distributed all over Europe, and there are commercial firms as cover, but the embassy in the real sense is still established by the former Qing Dynasty in several European powers, and has not been officially recognized by various European powers.Now that the King of Spain has personally invited, this is the formal establishment of diplomatic relations, although it is only a formality, but it can also represent the difference in the diplomatic status of the Emperor and China in Europe, although the Kingdom of Spain is only a country that is barely a second strong.President Moe's impression of Madrid is still good, the Kingdom of Castile with its capital in Toledo and the Kingdom of Aragon with its capital in Zaragoza were combined by Charles I to form modern Spain.Although Charles favored Madrid, his son Philip II was the first to move the royal palace to Madrid in 1527 and 1598, and he moved it to Madrid in 1561.Although he did not officially announce the move of the capital, Madrid was in fact the capital of Spain.Seville continued to control Spanish India, but Madrid controlled Seville.For a short time, in 1601 and 1606, when Philip III established his royal palace in Valladolid, the wealth of Madrid was a true reflection of the wealth of Spain.During Spain's 16th and 17th centuries' "Golden Century", Madrid was not similar to other European capitals: its population depended economically on the royal family's own business.Philip V believed that Madrid, as one of the European capitals, was not suitable for Spain at its current size, so under his rule Madrid was heavily constructed, including the construction of new royal palaces, including the Royal Palace of Madrid.However, Madrid did not become a modern city until Charles III 1716 and 1788.Charles III was one of the most famous kings in Madrid's history, and during his reign the townspeople were called: "The king, the best mayor".When Charles IV became king in 1748 and 1819, there was an uprising among the citizens of Madrid.Charles IV abdicated after a popular uprising led by his own son Ferdinand VII, but Ferdinand VII's reign was very short-lived: in May 1808 Napoleon's army stormed Madrid.On May 2, 1808, the people of Madrid revolted against the French army, and the brutal repression of the French army had a lasting effect on French rule in Spain and presented the image of France to the whole of Europe.After the Spanish War of Independence in 1814, Ferdinand VII returned to rule Spain, but after a military coup by the liberals, Rafael del Lego demanded that Ferdinand swear respect for the constitution.This began a period of alternating liberal and conservative governments until Isabella II ascended the throne.Politically and geographically, Madrid is the heart of Spain.The blazing sun of the southern European plateau gives Madrid a fiery temperament, perhaps not very elegant, but the hot eyes make her as good as any European capital.Madrid's illustrious history began only with the founding of the Kingdom of Castile, far less than many Spanish cities.But it is only in Madrid that you can see the essence of Spain's various eras; It is only in the streets of Madrid that you can feel the blending of various ethnic cultures in Spain.Not to mention the ancient towns and villages that surround Madrid, all of which attract visitors to seek out the best of the best."
Okay, reply immediately, thank you for the invitation from the King of Spain and the Spanish government."
President Meng said to Wu Tingfang.Wu Tingfang nodded and said, "I'll do it right away."
This will have a very good impact on the higher level of negotiations that we propose for trade cooperation with the Kingdom of Spain. ”President Meng nodded, he is no longer worried about this matter, in fact, in the meeting between the Chinese Emperor and King Alfonso XII of Spain two days ago, Alfonso XII has acquiesced to the request to help Huaguo sell weapons to Africa and South America, but it is still a little ambiguous, and now with the major good news that the Chinese army has gained a foothold on the Japanese island of Kyushu, it has once again proved the strong strength of the Chinese army, you know, this is in the case that the Chinese army has no foreign aid and no supplies, Defeating the Japanese government army, which had the support of Britain and France, was tantamount to a slap in the face of the British and French governments: "Your Majesty, Berlin is in an emergency." ”At this time, Wang Zhankui also came over.If it is an ordinary telegram, Wang Zhankui will first hand it over to the president's secretariat or Princess Katrina Kaf, and if there is an urgent telegram, it needs to be sent directly to the emperor, because there are only less than 100 people who can send an emergency telegram to the emperor.This urgent telegram from Berlin was sent by Zeng Jize.President Meng took it and looked at it, and Princess Katrina Kafu stood by the side of Emperor Hua with concern, but she didn't look at it.President Meng put down the telegram and said with a smile: "What do I have to do, Germany has also invited us to establish an embassy in Berlin, and Bismarck personally met with Zeng Jize today, Zeng Jize said that Bismarck intends to contract the Chinese army to purchase warships in Europe." ”Princess Katrina Cafu was pleasantly surprised: "This is great news, Your Majesty can really calm down, if it were not for the invitation of the King of Spain just now, Your Majesty would definitely not be so easy at this moment." ”President Meng smiled, "I have what you said so uncalmly, you can't hope for others, your own strength is the most important thing." ”Hua Huang, who was in a good mood, began to joke."
Your Majesty is the calmest."
Princess Katrina Kaaf smiled.President Meng smiled and shook Jiegege's hand, "Okay, let's go, go out for a walk, and hold a banquet at the embassy today to invite dignitaries from the Kingdom of Spain." ”t1706231537:
