late Qing Dynasty arrest

On the slope of Luoxing Mountain, the officers and soldiers of the Ever Victorious Army charged all over the mountains and planted their battle flags on the mountain peak, as if winning a big victory. Li Guolou looked at the bastards of the Ever Victorious Army and screamed, feeling sorry for this army. Li Hongzhang put this The purpose of sending this army to Mawei Port is to boost the morale of the Qing army and put pressure on the Japanese army to let people all over the world know that the Changsheng Army is already in Mawei Port and will not send this army to Taiwan.

It's a pity that this group of promising young people in the concession thought they could go to Taiwan to fight for the motherland. military doctor

Bai Langning, Muzhi Mujue, thought that Li Guolou wanted something from him, and he generously lent military doctor Fan Lipu and others to the Xinwu Army

Li Guolou patted Bai Langning on the shoulder and said: "Bai Guanzhi is enough friends, let's meet again in Taiwan and fight together."

Browning nodded very seriously, "Well, of course I'm looking forward to that day."

Li Guolou saluted to Bai Langning to express his gratitude to the soldiers, and then walked away. He didn't want to fight side by side with the ever-victorious army.

Bolt watched Li Guolou disappear into the jungle and said softly: "Didn't you see that Li Guolou's attitude towards us this time is different from the past?"

"Why is it different?" Browning looked at the soldiers on the hillside very relaxedly, thinking they were the savior of the Qing Dynasty

"Li Guolou is too polite and stingy, that is to say, he didn't think about rewarding the ever-victorious army Bai Commander. Under what circumstances, Li Guolou would be stingy when he made a move." Bolt pointed out Li Guolou's hypocrisy. Leaving Li Guolou, wanting to part ways with the Changsheng Army and refusing to give the Changsheng Army their military exploits[

"Well, there is some truth, I'll go find out what Mr. Fu Xiang said." Browning stayed in the Qing Dynasty for a long time and understood the rules of the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty. He walked to Li Hongzhang's residence and thought about Li Hongzhang's every move. Don't let Bolt guess what Li Hongzhang said. The ever victorious army is used as a statue on the shrine

Soon an undercurrent surged in the Ever Victorious Army. The soldiers of the Ever Victorious Army, who were originally high in morale, began to complain and hand in letters of invitation one after another. They even ran to the Xinwu Army garrison to make trouble, asking Li Guolou to give them a satisfactory answer.

Li Guolou persuaded the soldiers of the Changsheng Army who were making trouble, and gave the soldiers of the Changsheng Army a satisfactory answer anyway. Lou triumphantly went to the meeting. It was Li Hongzhang's decision to let the Changsheng Army station at Mawei Port. He also believed that the Changsheng Army stationed at Mawei Port was a deterrent to the Japanese army, so he would not worry about the question of whether the Changsheng Army would stay or not.

Li Henian, Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang Province, has been stationed in Mawei Port and dispatched [-] officers and soldiers to Keelung Port to ease the pressure of the lack of troops of the Taiwan Town Commander Liu Mingdeng. Several important military towns in Taiwan are still in the hands of the Qing army. Taiwan Town Commander Liu Mingdeng passed by The military expansion in one winter has more than [-] soldiers available. It can be said that Taiwan's advantage is still in the hands of the Qing army. The Qing army has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength. Therefore, Li Henian's attitude towards Li Hongzhang is still quite chic. Minister

The military meeting was held in the Mawei Harbor Academy, presided over by Li Hongzhang. Li Guolou, Li Henian, Ding Richang and others participated. Li Henian talked about the development of the Taiwan war situation and the layout he planned, as if he knew everything about the Taiwan war.

Li Hongzhang is old and sophisticated and listened silently to Li Henian's words without showing any impatience

Li Guolou was getting impatient, why did he hear that the Qing army was so proud of the record? He just heard that the Taiwanese officers and soldiers guarding the military town repelled the Japanese army's attacks several times. More than 1 Qing troops held the line of defense.

"Marshal Li, I don't understand that there are no troops fighting in the field in Taiwan. An army needs to divide labor and coordinate operations to defend military fortresses, and it also needs to have a wide depth of space. Without flexibility, it is a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. The tragedy of dividing and attacking has long been doomed." Li Guo Lou couldn't help interjecting. He really couldn't understand why Liu Mingdeng, the commander-in-chief of the Taiwan town, had [-] soldiers and horses.

Li Henian gave a far-fetched smile, glanced at Li Hongzhang, and said, "To be honest, Li Zhentai's garrison in Taiwan hasn't fought a war for decades. Usually, it's just a transport brigade to let them guard fortresses, or let them drill ravines, climb mountains, and enter primitive deep forests. Should we go back and fight in Taiwan or use warriors from ethnic minorities? Right now, Liu Mingdeng, the commander-in-chief of the Taiwan town, is preparing and training a new army in Anping Castle. In a month, our army will be able to launch a strategic counterattack.”

Li Guolou stood up angrily and scolded: "Marshal Li, what are you talking about? There is no such thing in the world as Liu Mingdeng who defends his family and the country. If he refuses to use his life, he still wants to preserve his strength and let our guest army go all out. That's unthinkable. There is no one from the Xinwu Army who Marken sent troops not to be this kind of national hero.”

Li Henian said with a wry smile: "Li Zhentai, don't worry, Mr. Fu Xiang has arranged for Zuo Zongtang to take all the belongings in my hands. It will take some time for the Fujian army to return from the Northwest It has been tested by the war. Using this kind of army is not as good as using the aboriginal people in Taiwan. I will win this battle here, and we must not worry about it.”

Li Guolou retorted: "Marshal Li, you are wrong. You are putting the cart before the horse. Although the Japanese army is aggressive, it is a paper tiger. Our army should take advantage of our geographical familiarity and carry out harassment tactics against the Japanese army with the cooperation of Taiwan's indigenous people to compress the Japanese army's strategic depth. With the Japanese army shrinking the line of defense, the Japanese army has been forced to retreat to Langqiao until the road can be retreated. There is no need to start a bloody offensive and defensive battle with the Japanese army. "Harassment is the best weapon. Now you might as well let the Japanese army harass our army's morale." How to improve? I don’t mean to belittle you. The native army trained in this environment is also a fleeing army. If you fight, you will be defeated. I haven’t seen an iron army trained in a fortress to fight. Small and small fights make a lot. This is it. The true meaning of the war of attrition waits for you to train 1 horses, the enemy already has [-] horses, and the enemy is as powerful as a rainbow, and there are indigenous troops that can be consumed, and the geographical advantage of our army is gone.”

Li Hongzhang was somewhat disgusted by Li Guolou's words, but after hearing it, he felt reasonable Acting as an internal response, how could the Japanese army break through the defense line of the Paiwan people so quickly and enter the hinterland of Guishan? You must know that the Qing army did not dare to attack the Guishan of the Paiwan people. The chief of the society, A Shilu, let the Japanese army find a breakthrough in the defense line of Guishan, otherwise thousands of warriors of the Paiwan tribe would not have been defeated by the Japanese army so quickly.

Li Hongzhang didn't wait for Li Henian to wave his hand to stop other people from speaking, and said solemnly: "Immediately send a message to Liu Mingdeng, the commander-in-chief of the Taiwan town, and order him to use military training to launch local harassment tactics to win the hearts of the people of Taiwan. The Qing court has never been stingy with generous rewards for meritorious ministers, as long as it is dedicated to the Qing Dynasty, our heavenly state will not blame the past, but will be responsible for the consequences.”

Li Guolou smiled slightly and said: "Marshal Li, you have to make up your mind, otherwise your family will bear the crime of losing power, humiliating the country and abandoning the gate of the country."

Li Guolou threatened Li Henian with his words, making the two generals here feel angry, and they all spoke ill of Li Guolou to the officers. They said "fuck your mother" in the southern Hokkien dialect. Li Henian

Li Henian used to talk and laugh happily, but now he is under a lot of pressure, especially Li Guolou puts him under tremendous pressure, which makes him want to squeeze out a smile, but the corners of his mouth don't obey. His whole family simply didn't take him as the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang seriously.

Li Henian hastily winked to make the two generals under him shut up, nodded and bowed his head: "Mr. Youdu Censor taught me that Taiwan should be fought by fighting and training my troops, so I urged Liu Mingdeng to change tactics and start a guerrilla war against the Japanese army, Mr. Fu Xiang." It’s a brilliant move to adopt a detainment policy for the natives in the mountains.”

The prison policy is a kind of bribery policy adopted by the central "government" in the past dynasties to the minority areas. It is to give the nobles of the minorities the highest rewards and can be crowned kings. In the south, the Tusi policy is adopted to let the nobles of these minorities manage their own tribes. The aristocratic class is decadent. It is easy for the ruling class to control these ethnic minority areas by becoming eagles and dogs loyal to the court. Of course, this policy also has poor consequences. Many leaders of ethnic minorities rebelled because they had money and land in their hands, so as long as the hearts of the people belong to the central "government" It will adopt land reform and bring the areas under the jurisdiction of ethnic minorities directly into the local "government" to solve the problem of people's attachment once and for all.

But you can't worry about everything. Now is the time to employ people. The Qing government still grants a high degree of autonomy to the aboriginal people in Taiwan, and will give them heavy rewards. Which minority supports the Qing regime and contributes money and efforts to fight against Japanese pirates? Then it will happen in the future. Have a good life, but the ethnic minorities who betrayed the Qing Dynasty served the Japanese invaders, only to be exterminated

Since he sang the red face, Li Hongzhang did not forget to praise: "Marshal Li, the Taiwan war depends entirely on you. Don't mislead the country and the people because of the conflict of words. The imperial court attaches great importance to the Taiwan war. If you have difficulties, you can bring it up. We will discuss the gains and losses of the Taiwan war while we have a meeting. The supply line is the lifeline, and our army's sea defense line cannot be lost."

Ding Richang, the governor of Fujian, has been silent all the time. Just now he also jumped out and scolded Li Guolou a few times. His elbows must always be turned inward, otherwise how can we win the battle with one heart? But he and Li Guolou are so good that they can wear a pair of crotch pants. The scolding ruffian hurriedly stated: "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, as long as I'm here, even if I sell the iron, I won't let the frontline soldiers starve. The military supplies are constantly being shipped to Penghu. I have a thousand sailboats in my hand. The Japanese army can't cut off my sea transportation line. "

Li Guolou shook his head and said: "Dingfutai's transportation method is not a long-term solution. If you do it like this, it will destroy the economy of Fujian. If the economy of a place is destroyed, is there any hope of winning this war? You will say that Taiwan is not suitable for stationing troops in Taiwan or that it cannot be defended. I don’t want to see you become a double-faced person.”

Ding Richang's complexion has changed. Although he has no integrity in personality and belongs to the kind of shameless person, the dignity of the country is still concerned. He is an out-and-out patriot. Li Guolou's words hit him Hitting his key point, thousands of sails are sailing towards the Taiwan Strait. It is impossible to last for a long time. The country does not have such strong financial resources as a backing. The Qing Dynasty does not want to expand this war. Winning a partial victory is the best ending tactic.

"Li Guolou, you are right. To deal with the Japanese army, we must prepare for a protracted war. I will continue to reorganize the logistics transport team." Ding Richang bowed his head to Li Guolou and admitted his mistake.

Li Guolou stood up and said with fangs and claws: "I think you can detain all the Japanese in Fuzhou when you are free Set off a "wave" of arresting spies in Fujian and organize a few more demonstrations to boycott Japanese goods."

"You said Little Japan's radio station was searched out by me, and Little Japan's warehouse was confiscated by me a long time ago. Li Guolou, please sit down here. It's not your turn to point fingers, Mr. Fu Xiang will arrange it properly." Ding Richang looked down. Li Guolou is in charge of Fujian Province, of course, Taiping is a matter of course, he is good at tricks, how can he capsize in the gutter

"Oh, even if I talk too much." Li Guolou talked too much, and he was a little embarrassed to sit down here. It's not his turn to show off, but Li Hongzhang doesn't talk too much. The cynical reckless man actually said what Li Hongzhang wanted to ask, he was just a bird in his early days

Li Hongzhang is addicted to cigarettes, and the conference hall is full of smoke

Li Hongzhang's long pipe has been upgraded to a two-foot-long emerald pipe bong. The whole pipe is green. The color is getting more and more advanced, as long as the antique he likes mentions to Li Guolou, Li Guolou will immediately pay for him to complete the errand

Only Li Guolou was alone, hiding at the door and breathing fresh air. Scenes of the past flashed through his eyes. He wanted to be a soldier serving the motherland and went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, not like an old-fashioned smoker who just sat on the sofa and swallowed. circle of clouds
