The explosion flames of Edo Castle Honmaru instantly destroyed all Tokugawa's Idioms.

He lives in Honmaru!

The nearest shell was only ten meters away from his residence! The explosion wave suddenly smashed the wooden boards and paper-paste walls into pieces. After the general of the Tokugawa Shogunate was helped up by his servant, he looked at the explosion of fire outside and shivered for a minute, and then made a decision...

Request for negotiation.

The Ming-American coalition happily accepted his request.

The negotiations between the Ming and American countries were launched on the battleship Zhiyuan. At this time, Paris, a distant France, had just arrived here and came to visit the Ming Dynasty's ambassador to France in order to lay the foundation for his next voyage to the Ming Emperor, Putiyatin, the Russian envoy who paved the way for his journey to the east to meet the Ming Emperor, were staring at the ultimatum in his hand that was handed over by the French diplomats.

"This is a provocation, this is a provocation to the Russian Empire!"

He growled in French.

This is not just a provocation, but also a humiliation!

Moreover, he was humiliated when he came to the door, with friendly sincerity and confidence in the future Ming and Russia friendship. He came here thousands of miles away, and was preparing to go to the east not far away tens of thousands of miles away.

As a result, they were slapped when they met.

He was a little angry at this moment!

This Russian first minister to Qing Dynasty in history and one of the masterminds of the Second Ravens, he felt like a clown at this moment. He could even see obvious mockery from the Ming and French diplomats opposite him. He was like attending a banquet with gifts and smiles. Then he was not only turned away but also slapped and hitting up blood. He stared at Chen Xin, the minister to France opposite with a fiery look, who looked at him with a calm smile...

"Your Excellency, you will pay the price for this!"

Putiyatin said almost gritting his teeth.

"I don't think you have this ability. If you are willing to drive the fleet to the Ming Dynasty, we are very happy to add their names to the captive list!"

Chen Xin said it in French with contempt.

"snort!"

Putiyatin snorted coldly, then looked at him deeply, turned around and left with his entourage.

"My Lord, their navy is indeed not capable of investing strength in the East, but your country still needs to be careful of their army. If the Russians stop expanding to the Tianshan Mountains in Central Asia and instead support the Tatars, they will still cause some trouble for your country! In addition, they also have many people in the Far East, especially in the Baikal area, and even have a large number of strongholds. Their army is fully capable of providing support to the Tatars in Manchuria and Mongolia."

Looking at his back, the French diplomat said to Chen Xin.

France and Russia are not allies at this time.

On the contrary, in order to compete for the fat piece of Ottoman, Europe is gradually forming an alliance between Britain and France, jointly blocking Russia's passage from the Black Sea in Ottoman, so it is beneficial for them to go to war with the Ming Dynasty and Russia. If the Tsar's eyes can be attracted to the East, then their pressure on the face of Russia in the Ottoman will be reduced. Similarly, if they can rely on Russia's intervention, Xianfeng can successfully resist the Ming Dynasty and put China's war into a tug-of-war state, then they can also hold up Yang Feng's expansion to Southeast Asia. Judging from the current situation, the Ming Dynasty Emperor is also very greedy and has begun to attack foreign countries before it has been resolved. If he solves the domestic enemy, he will definitely expand outward to exert his strength. Although the British are the first to bear the brunt, it means that France will never think of getting involved in Asia again.

So they were happy to see the Ming and Russia really started the war, and they were even more happy to see the Russians teach Yang Feng a lesson.

"We can defeat any enemy!"

Chen Xin said calmly.

"That's true!"

The French diplomat said with a smile.

The news spread in Europe soon, and governments including Britain immediately became excited. At this time, the geming in 1848 in Europe had not yet begun. The European monarchs did not need the rescue of European gendarmeries. On the contrary, they did not like this giant being pressed on their heads. If someone could attract this giant bear to the East, it would undoubtedly be a joy to everyone. Especially the other protagonist this time was the evil dragon of the East. Since the two defeats of the British Navy, European countries have already understood that they must fight against a strong man in the east, and this strong man is still unrestrained. The Tatars obviously do not have this ability, but now with the appearance of the giant bear, everything has changed.

Then, in addition to France, the Netherlands and Portugal, which had diplomatic relations with the Ming Dynasty, Europe was slightly restrained. All other countries were cheering for Nikolai behind. Even the Ottoman Sultan, who had hated him so much that his teeth were itchy, cheering for Russia, hoping that the Russian Tsar could use his whip to whip the demon in the East.

The same is true for the British.

Of course, everyone just said it, but it was not done in actual actions.

British negotiators signed in Nanjing.

The new Ming-English Treaty in Nanjing was quickly determined, and the British government compensated 100 million yuan for compensation. The Ming Dynasty released all British prisoners of war and returned all British warships. Britain transferred the Strait colonies and Andaman Islands to the Ming Dynasty, transferred the protection rights of the Delindayi Sultanate, and returned the Zhoushan leased land obtained from the Tatars. However, 100 million yuan was paid in installments, and the first payment was 21 million yuan. The remaining installments were paid for ten years, which was calculated. In addition, there were not those not on the treaty, that is, Yang Feng's debts in the East India Company were confirmed, and these were responsible by the East India Company. In short, the UK accepted the conditions proposed by the Ming Dynasty to end the war and restore peace.

Even Britain and the Ming Dynasty established diplomatic relations.

In short, let’s tell Yang Feng that you can deal with the Russians with confidence and boldness.

We are ready to watch the fun.

Just as the Ming-English Treaty was signed, the Ming-Mei-U-Oedo Treaty was signed. The Tokugawa Shogunate agreed to all other conditions except for the cede of Kagoshima. The reason was that Kagoshima did not belong to the Tokugawa Shogunate, but the Tokugawa Shogunate would not provide any help to the Shimazu family, so the Ming army could continue to maintain its occupation there, and the Tokugawa family would not care.

In short, the war ended quickly.

On the domestic battlefield, the Ming army also resumed large-scale attacks. One brigade after another marched from Tianjin, Xuzhou, Shouchun, Guangzhou and Hanjiang, which was a tragic sweep of the Qing army's protruding troops centered on Henan. The resistance they encountered was minimal, starting with Yuan Jiasan's surrender in Guide. On the long two thousand-mile front, it can be said that 90% of the Qing army surrendered in a glance. The reason why there are still ten percent is that there are still some who have no good results even if they surrender. Henan, everyone understands who are there. These people are also very sad. The Qing army in the west killed them, and the Ming army in the east killed them. They died in the middle. Not only Henan, but also Zhili.

But everything was like a mantis arm in front of the attack of the entire 300,000 Ming army.

In just three months, there were only four points left: Baoding, Zhengding, Luoyang and Xiangyang, which were still fighting for the Qing Dynasty east of the Qinling Line of the Taihang Mountains, and there were four lonely points.

Fortunately, the Monk King is back.

He came back with a cage with Yu Sufu.

Along with him was the special envoy sent by the Russian Tsar. His special envoy brought a message to the princes and ministers of Xianfeng and Chang'an that made them dream. Russia and the Ming Dynasty went to war. In fact, on the same day the Russian envoy arrived in Chang'an, the Ming Dynasty's ambassador to France handed over the letter of declaration of war on the Ming Empire to the French diplomats. In front of him, the latter handed over the letter of declaration of war to the Russian Minister to France. The Ming Empire and the Russian Empire officially entered a state of war.

This news was really like a dream to Xianfeng and his princes and ministers.

Of course they knew how powerful Russia was.

It can be said that the Qing Dynasty and Russia have been entangled for two hundred years. This Rakshasa Kingdom, which came from thousands of miles away, always pressed over their heads like clouds. From their place of dragons to the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, the Rakshasa people kept wandering in the distance like ghosts, and then kept annexing one name after another they knew, until not long ago, they echoed Yusufu in the north and south of the north and south of the attack on Yili.

However, this ghost suddenly became a savior.

This change, which was like a god-turning change, completely confused Xianfeng and the princes and ministers.

Especially the Russian envoy told them that His Majesty the Tsar was willing to provide all the help he needed to the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and could send instructors to help them train their troops, provide them with arms, and even send some Russian troops to assist them in their battles. Moreover, these do not have any rewards, and the Qing Dynasty does not need to ced a inch of land as a reward. Of course, it is still necessary to pay for buying arms, and the supplies that the Russian army went to the Qing Dynasty to help the battle were also provided by the Qing Dynasty. In addition, in order to reflect the friendship between the two sides, the two countries sent envoys to each other and signed an alliance treaty. Moreover, not only the northwest, but also the Russian troops in the northeast and the Baikal area could also go south to help the Qing army in the northeast.

The Russian army will not grab territory.

His Majesty the Tsar can guarantee that he respects the borders between the two sides stipulated in the Treaty of Nebchu. Even if he defeats the Ming Dynasty and helps Xianfeng return to the palace in Beijing, the Russian army will withdraw from the borders stipulated in the Treaty of Nebchu.

When necessary, the Russian naval fleet will also come to participate in the war.

In short, it is all-weather friendship, completely selfless and meticulous help, but there is another special, purely the private request of His Majesty the Tsar...

Xianfeng was baptized.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty should be bathed in the glory of God, become an Orthodox, and kneel down before the cross like Nicholas I, and then His Majesty the Russian Tsar is willing to be his godfather and protect his godson as the protector of all Orthodox people.

As for those princes and ministers, they just do whatever they want.

Of course, this is just a private request.
