The Executive Committee held an emergency meeting that night.

At the meeting, Bai Siwen described in detail the conditions of the British and the rumors he heard in St. Vicente, which made the members of the Executive Committee whisper.

The naval fleet has indeed disappeared for a long time, and there has been no news from either La Plata or Brazil before. The huge naval fleet has disappeared as if it had never appeared. Perhaps they are still waiting for an opportunity to attack the British ships in a certain sea area, perhaps they have been buried in the fierce storm of the Atlantic Ocean, or perhaps they are ambushed by the British fleet like the latest news circulating in St. Vicente.

I have to say that this news made some zhongyāng members feel a little panicked. They were originally ordinary people, but now they are leaders in a country with a population of more than 20,000, and their mental quality has improved several levels compared to before. However, when they first heard such horrifying news, their faces changed drastically. Especially the British said that they had a nose and eyes, and even the ship type and number of ships of the East Coast task force were not bad at all, which made people feel a little uneasy.

"Don't scare yourself, trust our navy." In the end, Ma Qianzu came out to make a conclusion. He was in his forties and was more calm than many people here. "Lu Ming is also an old man in the navy. He was the captain since the navy owned his first battleship. In the past few years, he has commanded several naval battles and escort missions, with rich experience, and is considered the number one in the navy. I feel assured that he took the fleet to sea. Even if he really encountered the British fleet, he knew how to choose and would definitely not be wiped out. Moreover, our two "Yangwu"-class fast cruisers have extremely strong maneuvers, and the British pirate ships cannot catch up. So I see, the credibility of this news is not very high. We can't mess up our own stance first, so what should we do."

"But..." Bai Siwen said hesitantly, "Even if the naval task force is fine, it still cannot break the British blockade. Moreover, the country is extremely difficult now. This war will not last be fought. We must achieve peace with the British as soon as possible."

"But the British asked for a price too high, we cannot agree." Ma Qianzu said firmly, "Old Bai, isn't I talking about you? You are ready to agree to the condition of technology proposed by the British? Isn't this nonsense? In fact, the battle between us and the British is not as simple as it seems. If we surrender to the British at this time, what will the Spanish and Dutch who are close to us think of us? They will think we are weak and can be bullied! The Spanish may not be too close to us!

I dare to do anything, but now the Dutch's naval strength is a little stronger than the British. If the Dutch also asks to share technology with us or ask us to withdraw from a certain market, otherwise we will be threatened by war. What do you think we should do? Should we be honest and obedient, or to fight another battle with the Dutch? So, we must be tough with the British to let those enemies who are ready to move in secret see clearly, how much loss will it take to fight with us."

"But war is not a matter of the same thing, the treasury is almost exhausted..." Finance Minister Tang Yuan complained to Bai Siwen.

"Of course, it is not advisable to be tough to the end and not know how to adapt." Ma Ganzu continued to say slowly, "You can negotiate peace with the British, but the conditions must be well agreed. For example, the transfer of the latest textile technology is absolutely not allowed. This is a forbidden zone, cannot be traded, and cannot be negotiated. This must be understood by the British and make them give up. As for other conditions, they can be negotiated slowly. For example, this compensation is not allowed, and it is not impossible to give 10,000 yuan in private. Of course, the name must not be called compensation, but humanitarian compensation. If the battlefield situation is favorable, then I don’t have to pay attention to the British. The British have a lot of troubles in their own country. I don’t believe that their restless king would be so honest. At this time in history, he should have raised money everywhere to prepare for the armed forces to attack the Scots? Hehe, the advantage of the time traveler is here. We can roughly know the political situation in the country, but they know nothing about us. So, Lao Bai, it’s all like this. If you mess up the peace negotiation errands again, it’s unreasonable.”

Bai Siwen was told by Ma Ganzu and realized that he was indeed a little too timid before. However, he was still a little yin-shaped by the powerful naval strength of the British in history, and he was also a little afraid of the colonial company fleet of informal soldiers. This is probably one of the disadvantages of time travelers.

"Okay, what you said makes sense, I was really reckless before," said Bai Swen. "Next, I will rush back to St. Vicente as soon as possible and make a good decision with Lao Gao. We will seriously hold our position in the subsequent negotiations and deal with the British."

"It's right for you to think this way." Ma Ganzu said with a smile, "You should pay attention to negotiations with the British, and you should not be anxious. You were too anxious to seek peace before, so that you messed up your own situation and showed the clues to the British. Since the British knew that you could not hold on and were eager to seek peace, the initiative in negotiations was in the hands of others. So, you must adjust your thinking well and don't be anxious. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that the government can't hold on? You don't have to worry at all, let's keep that. There are so many troops, so many intensive inspections, and so many spies do what they eat? At worst, military control is implemented. All materials are subject to the rationing system, and resources are given priority to protect the army and intensive inspections. This country cannot be in chaos! Hehe, to put it bluntly, our country is now and for a long time in the future. We have a high-pressure rule. We still have control over the local area, and no one can make waves. So don’t worry, as you said, deal with the British and see who can’t hold back first!”

"Yeah." Bai Siwen nodded, then suddenly changed his mind and said, "Chairman Ma, members, I believe everyone has read the materials for the next issue just now. Time is tight, and I write it in a hurry, but I think I have already expressed the meaning very clearly. This afternoon, the active army officers Xiao Baitu, Leonid Feodorovic entered and left the key department with weapons, and were unable to tell the truth, so he beat the leader. His arrogance was extremely arrogant. I don't need to say much about the influence because of being extremely domineering. What I want to say here is that this happening is definitely not accidental. A large group of people in the Army Department whose minds are filled with the abnormal thinking of the world's number one, I think they should be rectified. How to deal with this matter, the Executive Committee can discuss it well. I suggest that Xiao Baitu and Leonid be expelled from the military, Xiao Baitu will be tried in the honorary court, deprive his NPC representative and shares of the East Coast Company, and Leonid will be exiled to Horse Island."

"Don't let your mother's fart!" Peng Zhicheng slapped the table and stood up, angrily scolding Bai Siwen, "Who has our army become in your mouth? Don't forget that when we started the war with the Spanish, our army braved the guns and fired the people back. Not to mention these years, there was no major operation without our army? Without our army, you don't know how long it has been dead. Bai Siwen, look at what you and your friends are all about? The army was exposed to the sun and rain outside, and you were born and die. You fucked dance parties at home every day! Don't think I don't know what you are doing. Wang De of your subordinates had a bunch of Italy, and the Spanish women had a club, so you have visited them yourself. Now you have the face to talk about us, I'm gonna have a dance party every day! Don't think I don't know what you are doing. Your subordinate Wang De has made a bunch of Italy, and the Spanish women have set up a club. You have visited them a lot. Now you have the face to talk about us, I'm gonna!"

Bai Siwen's face suddenly became hot when he was exposed in public by Peng Zhicheng. His private life was indeed not very careful. There were several illegitimate children outside. However, the country's current legal system is not perfect, and there is no law that explicitly stipulates that breastfeeding is not allowed. Therefore, Bai Siwen's "cultivation" of spitting on his face cannot be hit by him. At most, he is a little embarrassed.

"Don't mess around." Bai Siwen argued strongly, "Your army is still right to beat people? If you don't deal with the two soldiers of Xiao Baitu today, it would be better if I don't take it as the President of the Supreme Court if I don't take it as the president of the Supreme Court! It's boring to be it. Anyway, your army is awesome, like warlords, and we're just going to do nothing!"

Civil member Xiao Mingli, Finance member Tang Yuan, Agricultural member Jin Kela and others were in a sympathy with Bai Siwen. At this time, they found an opportunity to beat the army, so they naturally followed suit.

Navy Commissioner Wang Qinian could no longer sit there and watch jokes. After all, he was also from the military position, so he joined forces with Xiao Bailang to speak for him.

For a moment, the opinions of the bigwigs of the Executive Committee were somewhat inconsistent, and the result of the handling could not be issued for a long time. In the end, Ma Qianzu came forward to talk to Ximian and came up with a compromise plan. It happened that the two sides had a long quarreling and knew that there would be no result if they continued to argue, so they both pinched their noses and accepted the plan.
Chapter completed!
