Chapter 130 Wang Wuye

The next day, Japan announced the content of the treaty, and the world was in an uproar, and newspapers from all walks of life reported on it.

Russia and Britain reacted the strongestly to this. Hawaii's acquisition of the Liaodong Peninsula and Tsushima Island undoubtedly hindered Russia's Far East expansion plan, and the occupation of Taiwan undoubtedly affected Britain's interests in the Far East. For this reason, Britain and Russia actually got together, but in the end no countermeasures were discussed.

The silence of Britain and Russia has made the newspapers even more false, saying that the Hawaiian Navy is invincible, the British Navy is timid, and even that Hawaii has become the world's number one power. Others say that Hawaii's Invincible Navy, without exception, these reports emphasize the power of the Queen of Hawaii and say that the 30-kilometer invincible range is invincible.

But no matter what they say, all these reports show that the dreadnought is the future maritime overlord, and the previous warships are weak and outdated.

Qin Ge naturally likes this kind of article very much. Such articles can definitely cause a maritime arms race among countries around the world, which is very conducive to the next action.

Qin Ge put down the newspaper and said, "Did you send the telegram?"

"It's been sent out, Master."

"Um."

Beijing, Yuanshun Escort Agency.

"Fifth Master, Mr. Wei San has arrived."

"Oh?" Wang Wu, who was teaching boxing, stopped his movements and said to the apprentice in front of him: "You practice it yourself first."

The third master of Wei was originally named Wei Shun. In fact, he was one of the "ghosts" sent by Qin Ge to reconnaise the terrain of Beijing and Tianjin. It took only ten days to detect the terrain of high-ranking officials to investigate the ghosts like this. Now, which official has a few concubines, and which princes and nobles often go to any brothel are all well-known. The task was completed, but these people are all unrestrained and just wander around Beijing and Tianjin to get to know some heroes in the martial arts world.

Wei Shun heard that Wang Wu of Yuanshun escort agency was very skilled in martial arts, so he went to ask for advice, but he didn't see him for the first time. After inquiring about the people from the escort agency, it turned out that Wang Wu was going to escort An Weijun.

An Weijun was the imperial censor. After the defeat in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, An Weijun wrote a letter to impeach Li Hongzhang, demanding severe punishment for those who ruined the country, and were demoted and dismissed from office and guarded the border. This situation was very miserable. Although the apparent prestige of an official, it would anger the emperor, at the least it would be dismissed, and at the worst it would be confiscated. In that era, it was not easy to be an official in the capital, especially as a high-ranking official. At two or three o'clock in the morning, he had to get up, put on his court clothes, prepare memorials, and wait in the palace. Only when the morning court began could he enter the palace. He was not as prestige as the current high-ranking official in the capital.

Wang Wu escorted An Weijun purely and did not accept any money. After returning to the capital, Wang Wu got the nickname of the hero of the capital. When Wei Shun looked for Wang Wu for the second time, Wang Wu was teaching people to practice boxing. After learning, Wei Shun learned that Wang Wu was defeated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, so he taught people to practice boxing. He also did not accept any money. Not only did he teach boxing but he also paid for a teacher to teach people to read.

Wang Wu was one of the top ten masters of the late Qing Dynasty and was as famous as Huang Feihong and Huo Yuanjia. Wei Shun was naturally no match for him, and he was defeated after ten moves. As the saying goes, he would not know each other without fighting. After the competition, the two became friends. Wei Shun felt that Wang Wu was a reliable person and just concealed his identity a little, saying that he was sent back by his young master overseas to "explor the way". Wang Wu knew that Wei Shun had no braids.

"Shunzi, I haven't been here for a long time. Do you think that my place is broken?" Wei Shun and others bought a teahouse to do business. This was not to hide their identity. At this time, no matter which country they sent spies to, there was basically no need to disguise them.

"Hey, how can this be done! The young master sent a task here some time ago, and he was very busy for a while." Wei Shun took a sip of the tea ceremony.

"What mission? Alas! By the way, what exactly does your young master do?"

"My young master is doing big business, and he basically does business with foreigners." This is true. Qin Ge is now doing business with foreigners.

"Oh, it's definitely amazing to do business with foreigners!"

"That's it!" Wei Shun was not modest either. "I came to see my elder brother today to have a drink. After tonight, I don't know if I can drink together again."

"What? Brother, are you going back to pay the job?" Wang Wu thought Wei Shun was leaving.

"Uh...ah!" Wei Shun nodded, "Yes, I want to go back and hand in the office."

"Well... go, go to Fuzui Tower, and I will stop drunk today." Wang Wudao.

The two of them came to Fuzui Tower. The shopkeeper recognized Wang Wu and admired Master Wang Wu more. When he saw Wang Wu coming in, he said, "Oh! Master Wang Wu, come here, please come here."

The shopkeeper took the two of them to sit down at the seat by the window. Wang Wu said, "Shopkeeper, I will serve me all the good wine and food. I am here to see my brother off today."

"Okay, understand, understand."

After drinking for three rounds, Wei Shun asked, "I wonder what my fifth brother thinks about those who work hard for the Japanese." Now it is a Manchu court, and it is a bit inappropriate to call him a traitor.

Speaking of these Sino-Japanese Wars of 1894-1895, the smile on Wang Wu's face disappeared immediately. Wang Wu naturally wanted to kill these traitors. It was precisely because of these traitors that Wang Wu felt that teaching people martial arts was not enough, so he spent money to hire people to teach. But what was even more hateful is that the "Treaty of Shimonoseki in the Qing Dynasty" also stipulated that the court was not allowed to arrest these traitors.

Wang Wuyi said with anger: "I wish I could kill him with my own hands."
