Lin Yuan smiled and said: "I thank you from the bottom of my heart. If it weren't for what you did, the British and Japanese would come up with ways to deal with us. With your tip-off, I would save trouble. too much."

Only then did Li Jingfang feel relieved, and Lin Yuan said: "Okay, since you didn't tell Emperor Guangxu the truth, then you can tell the emperor what I said now."

Li Jingfang then told Emperor Guangxu exactly what Lin Yuan had said to him about the terms of the summation. Emperor Guangxu felt a lot relieved when he heard it. The imperial edict formally handed over the power to us."

After hearing this, Emperor Guangxu let out a long sigh, and said, "In this way, my clean-up is over?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Sooner or later you will have this day, don't be sad."

Emperor Guangxu shook his head and sighed for a while, Lin Yuan ordered his subordinates: "Take Emperor Guangxu to the cabin to rest." His subordinates agreed and took Emperor Guangxu and Concubine Zhen to the cabin, while Li Jingfang went out to identify the Japanese and British Agents, quickly captured Ichiro Matsumoto and Kyle.

Lin Yuan was very happy to see that not only Emperor Guangxu had been captured this time, but also the leaders of the Japanese and British agents, especially the leader of the East China team. The captain wants to see you."

Lin Yuan said, "Please come in." Nelson walked in after a while, and when Lin Yuan saw him, he said in surprise, "Why are you?"

Nelson sneered, "Lin Yuan, we meet again."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Why didn't General Nelson command a warship, but instead command a cruise ship?"

Nelson said angrily: "Lin Yuan, don't say such useless words, you have brought us a lot of trouble on the voyage, you have to give us an explanation!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Nelson, you don't need to say these provocative words anymore, anyway, I have already caused you trouble."

Nelson said angrily, "I will..."

Lin Yuan said without waiting for Nelson to finish speaking: "I know what you are going to say, isn't it just to inform the British Empire? It is not the first time I have heard these words. Do you have anything new to ask? say?"

Nelson really has nothing new to say. Seeing that Lin Yuan guessed what he said, and was speechless by Lin Yuan's anger, he turned and left. Lin Yuan laughed behind him and said, "Mr. Continue to be the captain of the Titanic?"

Nelson stared back at Lin Yuan and said, "What does this have to do with you?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I would like to remind you that if you are still the captain of the Titanic in the future, please be careful of icebergs when sailing."

Of course, Nelson didn't know about the Titanic hitting an iceberg and sinking in Lin Yuan's time. He only thought that Lin Yuan was making fun of him, and he didn't want to argue with Lin Yuan, so he turned and left.

When Lin Yuan returned to Shanghai, he first instructed the Beijing side to try Kodama Gentaro and other leaders of the Japanese Volunteer Aid Force. In the end, they were all sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of initiating war and rape. , the purpose is to facilitate future diplomatic struggles.

Lin Yuan then asked Emperor Guangxu to issue an abdication edict. This abdication edict marked that the imperial power that had lasted for more than 2000 years in China had officially entered the grave of history. Will always remember this day.

As soon as Emperor Guangxu’s abdication edict was sent out, all areas ruled by the Qing court sent telegrams one after another, expressing their willingness to support the regime of the People’s Republic of China established by Lin Yuan, but Lin Yuan was not happy. He remembered the example of the 19 Revolution in his time, Although the Revolution of [-] abdicated the Qing emperor, the warlords from all over the country supported their own troops, causing China to be divided for more than ten years.

Lin Yuan was worried that officials from all over the country would be self-respecting, so he ordered all the troops to step up the march to the south of the Yangtze River, mainly Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan Island and Taiwan, and at the same time transport the troops to Sichuan and Yunnan, which are geographically very difficult, through the Jingyun Railway. In an independent area, the importance of the Jingyun Railway is reflected at this time. If there is no such railway, it will take a lot of effort for Lin Yuan's troops to enter Sichuan and Yunnan.

As soon as the Qing emperor’s abdication edict came out, countries around the world were most shocked, especially Britain and Japan. They helped Emperor Guangxu establish a government-in-exile in order to contain Lin Yuan, but they did not expect that Lin Yuan would arrest Emperor Guangxu. This made them angry.

At this time, Nanjing was still under the rule of the Qing court, and Lin Yuan’s troops had not yet entered. The British ambassador Noren called a meeting of ambassadors from various countries. At the meeting, Noren said worriedly: "Lin Yuan is about to complete his control of China. , China in the future will definitely appear on the stage of international affairs as a pivotal force."

The German ambassador said with a smile at this time: "Mr. Noren, please forgive me, I think Lin Yuan is going to challenge the supremacy of your British Empire. Look at Lin Yuan's recent actions and set up various international organizations. Organizations, recently pulled France and other countries to sign the "Convention Against Chemical Weapons", and promised to help African countries achieve national independence, all of which prove my point."

Noren laughed and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether our British Empire is the world's hegemony or not. The world is almost divided, and Lin Yuan's sudden joining will definitely take away a lot of resources, so Lin Yuan is the enemy of every country in our country."

The German ambassador laughed and said: "Our German emperor immediately declared Lin Yuan's regime illegal after receiving the imperial edict to abdicate the throne, and also announced: cut off all trade with China, and expelled the members of the Chinese embassy, ​​which one of you How can the country do this?"

The envoys of various countries were stunned, because Lin Yuan had a large share of trade with them, and they really couldn't just break up with Lin Yuan. At this time, Noren said: "Our British Empire will also impose sanctions on Lin Yuan, specific sanctions The extent to which the Congress is still discussing, I have invited you here this time because our Prime Minister of the British Empire has an idea and wants to ask for your opinions."

Everyone asked, "What do you think?"

Nolen said: "We were all against Lin Yuan before, but we didn't form a unified organization, and we were out of sync on many things, so our prime minister proposed: we set up an organization to contain China, and in the future, various countries can work together in this organization. Various sanctions against China have been adopted within the organization.”

The German envoy first said: "We are the first to join the German Empire!"

The Japanese Consul General in Nanjing also said: "Our Great Japanese Empire also wants to join!" The Russian Consul General in Nanjing also said: "We have fought several battles with China, and a large part of the country is still occupied by China. We also want to join this organization! "

Ministers from Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire also joined in, and the most hesitant was the United States. The United States has always maintained great flexibility in world affairs because of its distance from Europe and Asia, so the American minister said: "This matter is very big. I need to discuss with our country's government to make a final decision, but I will do my best to lobby the government."

Noren said: "Well, our organization can be established, and its name is: World Alliance of Independence! The official meeting and the signing ceremony of the alliance will be held in London in the future."
