late Qing Dynasty arrest

Ding Richang got 50 yuan in money, and Ledian turned back to the General Military Mansion. Before he entered the lobby, he heard Li Hongzhang singing "Empty City Plan" with his broken gong voice.

"I was looking at the mountain scenery from the city tower, and I heard people and horses in chaos, flags and banners flying, but it turned out that they were soldiers sent by Sima.

I also ordered someone to inquire about it, and found out that Sima, you are heading west with your troops. Firstly, it is Ma Di who has the ability to plan for a young man.

How lucky you are to get three cities in a row, greedy and disgusting, you took my west city, and I, Zhuge, waited in the enemy building, Sima, come here and let’s talk, talk, talk heart to heart.”

Li Hongzhang sang so badly that people got goosebumps all over his body

But this is rare to hear Li Henian and Wen Yu clapping their hands and beating the beat for Li Hongzhang. Why are you so happy?"

Li Hongzhang laughed loudly, and everyone in the room laughed so loudly that the beams of the room trembled.

"Li Guolou's flag was successful and the Japanese Fusang was sunk." Fan Lirun waved his folding fan, obviously he was the one who made the most of the contribution. Everything was planned by him.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Ding Richang took a telegram and laughed wildly

Fan Lirun let out a long sigh: "Ding Futai, don't be too happy. Although our navy won a big victory in the north and south, it also lost a lot. The battleship Yangwei was sunk by the enemy and lost five battleships. Li Guolou led the navy to hide in Magong Harbor to rest."

"Ah, Li Guolou went to Magong Port, why is this so? Didn't it mean that Liu Mingdeng landed in Keelung Port and Liu Mingdeng has moved to Keelung Port? Isn't this a joke?" Ding Richang was shocked and ran to look at the military map

Li Hongzhang looked at Ding Richang as stable as Mount Tai and said: "Since Ding Futai has made Li Guolou the commander-in-chief of Taiwan, he can't restrain his hands and feet. He can land wherever he wants. Although Magong Port is a little smaller, it is also a deep-water wharf. Something's up"

Ding Richang was scolding his mother in his stomach and slandered the [-]th generation of Li's ancestors as an outsider. Such a major military deployment was hidden from him because he likes to speak a few foreign words. sir

When Ding Richang saw the telegram saying that the navy needed 50 pieces of armor piercing, he couldn't help feeling heartbroken. The Nanyang Navy's artillery inventory was depleted after a big victory for the Daqing Navy. When Hua was about to go out, he blurted out: "Master Fu, you can't hide something from me. You must know that if I give up the pick, no one will pull me back."

Li Hongzhang smiled and said: "Ding Xiaogui is not that I want to hide from you, even I don't know Li Guolou's tactical deployment. If I know that Li Guolou went to Diaoyu Island to intercept the Japanese fleet by relying on the divination of Mr. White Snake, you say I will let him Will you be the commander in chief of the Navy?"

Li Hongzhang is old and cunning. From his expression, you can't see any flaws. It seems that every sentence comes from the bottom of his heart. Ding Richang is good at intrigue, and he is a tumbler in the officialdom, but he is a little worse than Li Hongzhang. When Li Hongzhang deceived him, he vented his anger on another person.

Ding Richang gritted his teeth and said, "How dare you lie to me, I will borrow money and refuse to repay the debt of 500 million silver dollars, drag it on for 20 years, and let the grandson pay it back."

The lobby roared with laughter, the victory of Master Qingshui made everyone feel happy, as long as Li Guolou won the victory and drove the Japanese army out of Taiwan Island, please come in. The business of the bank will be improved to a higher level; otherwise, if Li Guolou is defeated, please come in. The bank will have danger of bankruptcy

The loan of 500 million silver dollars is guaranteed by the "government", so there is no reason not to repay the loan Divisional joint operations As for the burden of logistics and supplies, only he can bear the burden of fighting in the front and spending money in the rear. The Qing Dynasty's national power is booming.

Li Hongzhang is a strategist who does not need to directly command the army to complete the strategic deployment in Fujian. He is about to leave for Beijing and has more difficult tasks waiting for him to negotiate with foreign powers. Immersed in excitement, the first joint battle of the Great Qingshui Division won the Diaoyu Islands naval battle. Of course, he is the chief assistant of the Qing Dynasty.

"Tonight I will treat guests to a [-]-table hot pot banquet. The first is to celebrate the victory of the Great Qingshui Division and the generals. The second is that I am going back to Beijing. I hope that after I leave, you can unite sincerely and let the war in Taiwan end with the clarion call of victory. In the future, you They are all the ministers of ZTE in the Qing Dynasty, and their names will go down in history." Li Hongzhang clearly distinguishes between public and private, and said a few words quite well, which made the several subordinates present have the consciousness of death.

Ding Richang yelled: "In Fujian, you have to eat seafood, not mutton, Mr. Fu Xiang, you have to do as the Romans do."

Li Hongzhang laughed and didn't have time to care about what the dinner was for. He went to send a telegram to Prince Gong to let his lover know the outcome of the Diaoyu Islands naval battle. He also needed to use various channels to verify that Li Guolou would not talk nonsense. Li Hongzhang was confident and bold to make the icing on the cake

The Palace of the General Army is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and a grand banquet is held. Li Hongzhang spends money to entertain guests and have fun with the generals.[

Li Henian, Ding Richang, and Wen Yu discussed with each other and invited all the big donors from Xiamen into the General Military Mansion. This is not thirty seats. There are at least a hundred tables from the inner house to the gate of the General Military Mansion. never forget

That night, firecrackers were set off outside the General Military Mansion, and notices were posted along the main roads to announce the victory of the Qingshui Division A portrait of Zhao Zilong hangs high on the altar

Xiamen is the first place to announce the victory of the Qingshui Army. Competent merchants passed the good news of the victory to relatives and friends of all parties through the telegram of the Post Office.

The next day, the news of the Diaoyu Islands naval battle has spread all over the motherland, and various forms of celebrations are held in various places. Thousands of students from the Jingshi Gongyuan carried the statue of Guan Gong and held a victory parade. After hearing the news, the other colleges moved. Chang'an Street Victory Meeting Chang'an Street welcomed tens of thousands of students. Young students made generous speeches and sang patriotic songs to express their patriotic enthusiasm. They formed square formations, and the waves of cheers were louder than the waves. They shouted "Long live" wildly.

Fan Dahui, the organizer of the parade, took the lead in singing:

"Morning Dadi East Great Empire Let us sing your praises together

In the clouds of your sky, on the mountains and seas, everywhere we see freedom shining brightly

The cradle of the sacred heroes of the country, the invaders can never climb ashore here

The yellow dragon flag is flying forever, the beautiful country is shining brightly in your arms, happy side

Once the motherland is invaded, we will go to the battlefield to fight for the country and drive the aggressors out, drive the aggressors out”

"Drive the aggressors out, drive the aggressors out" the lyrics are catchy and sang in unison from the square

In the teahouse, the storyteller has made up the highlights of the Diaoyu Islands naval battle. The merchants are carrying the good news of the victory of the navy, selling cheap food and Japanese goods. The shops are closed. There is not a single Oriental in the capital. Firecracker shops and firecrackers are sold out. There are lion dance teams at the gate

The square under the ** is the square where the emperor inspected the expedition team. It has witnessed the enthusiasm of the Eight Banners. Generations of Eight Banners soldiers set off from here to embark on the road to the country. For nearly 40 years, the Eight Banners soldiers set off from here, but returned with nothing but momentum. The majestic expedition ceremony does not have the triumphant ceremony of consummation

The triumphant ceremonies before ** were all brought by the ministers of the Han Dynasty for the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. There were no elite soldiers from the Eight Banners. The last time was when Li Hongzhang wiped out the [-] Huai troops in the east and brought the head of the bandit leader Lai Wenguang.

Today, Li Hongzhang and Li Guolou, a pair of masters, created new glories and brought celebration and joy to ** Square. The whole capital is celebrating the victory of the Qingshui Division. The Emperor Tongzhi couldn't bear to celebrate with the people.

Emperor Tongzhi took Empress Arut, Concubine Hui Fucha, Concubine Yu, and Concubine Xun, surrounded by many eunuchs and maids, to the top of the city tower to enjoy the spectacular scene of Chang'an Street. The harem of Emperor Tongzhi seems pitifully small Three Concubines with Tablets

These four "women" represent the noble royal family, let the common people see and establish the status of the mother of the country, and in the future, they can replace the status of the empress dowagers of the two palaces. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The day has come to triumphantly stand up and be the master. Don’t need to look at the face of the Empress Dowager Cixi. She is the mother of the Qing Dynasty. The two empress dowagers take care of their lives. People who are in the past Although the victory brought by Li Guolou, the empress Arut has never looked at Li Guolou directly. Li Guolou is the face of the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces. Sacrifice

Emperor Tongzhi's wings are not yet full, but he already has the bearing of a wise monarch. He wants to prove to the world that the Qing Dynasty has risen and can sit on an equal footing with the Western powers in the new era. Under the wings of the Empress Dowager, today I can finally feel proud and happy with the people. The news of the victory of the Taiwan naval battle kept him up all night. The grand occasion, the scene where the students are cheering, the hero of a generation stands proudly on the tower of the Qing Dynasty. The great cause of revitalizing the Qing Dynasty has been completed in his hands, and he can finally comfort the spirits of the ancestors.

Emperor Tongzhi looked at the crowds of people ambitiously, twisted a string of Buddhist beads in his hands, pretended to be positive, and said: "Well, this is my people of the Qing Dynasty, and this is my Great Steel Wall of the Qing Dynasty. Today, the people of the Qing Dynasty can finally feel proud."

Empress Alut said gracefully and generously: "Yes, this is the emperor. You have managed well and employed people well. Li Hongzhang, an old minister who seeks the country, and Li Guolou, who is resourceful and resourceful, are all ministers of ZTE. The Taiwan campaign will surely bring success."

Although Empress Alut can be petty, she will still cater to the Emperor Tongzhi in the face of big right and wrong, and she will say a few good words for Li Guolou before she has established authority.

Emperor Tongzhi listened to his ears and said: "Tonight, the whole world celebrates with the imperial garden. Let the prince, Beizi, and Baylor all come and have a family banquet first, and then celebrate with the courtiers on the day of victory."

Emperor Tongzhi knew very well that the Taiwan War had only just begun. Japanese Minister Yasuke Fukushima was still tough and did not go to the Zongli Yamen to ask for diplomatic negotiations. It was not time to celebrate the victory.

"I'm going to do it now." The eunuch Liu Deyin bowed and retreated with a smile, and went to prepare the banquet. There are hundreds of royal relatives. There must be at least 30 tables for a family banquet. The imperial dining room will be very busy, but since the master Happy slaves must do their best

Emperor Tongzhi sat on the imperial chariot after watching the ceremony at the **, and came to the Military Aircraft Office.

The wars in the Qing Dynasty were rampant, and the wave after wave of peasant uprisings made the country lose its land, which became a sweet spot in the eyes of the Western powers. Land severance and compensation have become a common tactic of the Qing Dynasty.

Only one-third of the land in Xinjiang is left, relying on the loyal and brave commander of Xinjiang, Jing Lian, to hold half of the southern Xinjiang. At this time, the Emperor Tongzhi has not yet seen the hope of regaining Xinjiang. is to recover Xinjiang

Zuo Zongtang, governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, was still fighting Ma Zhanao's Hui army near Suzhou. The main force of the Qing Dynasty had not yet crossed the Yellow River to attack Xining, the base of the Hui army.

Liu Jintang commanded the main force of the [-] Qing army and resorted to the strategy of water attack, dug up the embankment of the Yellow River and flooded Jinji Fort, causing hundreds of thousands of people to suffer. Ma Hualong, Ma Yaobang and his son are still fighting in Jinji Fort.

Emperor Tongzhi could only see it well and pretended not to know where the flood of the Yellow River came from, thinking that the Yellow River's bursting of its embankment was the result of the peach blossom flood in spring.

Now the Japanese are taking advantage of the civil strife in the Qing Dynasty, and the Japanese army invaded Taiwan in the name of the colonial colony. As a Mingjun, the Qing Dynasty was restored to peace

Emperor Tongzhi sat on the couch and carefully read the battle reports from various places to understand the progress of wars in various places. Fighting wars cost a lot. More than half of the fiscal revenue in a year is used for wars. A military department spends more than 2000 million yuan a year. The "government" is not enough. I need to borrow a loan from the Bank of Invitation. For this Taiwan naval battle, Fujian will borrow 500 million yuan from the Bank of Invitation with the guarantee of customs tariffs.

What a great thing it is for a private bank to bear the burden of a country Isn't bankruptcy a big laughing stock? Li Guolou has to work hard to continue raising funds for the Qing Dynasty

Emperor Tongzhi wanted to be a hero of the generation who opened up the territory, but when he saw the financial expenditure report, he wanted to be a peace and enjoyment emperor.

Emperor Tongzhi looked at the documents and said to himself from the bottom of his heart: "It is not an exaggeration for Li Guolou to calm down Taiwan. It is not an exaggeration to enjoy the three-eyed flower feather and seal a shellfish."

Prince Gong Yixin, Chief Assistant of Military Aircraft, Prince Chun Yizhen, Minister of Military Aircraft, Shen Guifang, Li Hongzao, and Weng Tonghe sat on the Taishi chair to write documents. All of them looked serious when they heard Emperor Tongzhi speak.

Seeing that no one responded, the Emperor Tongzhi immediately backed down and said in a loud voice: "Would you like to appreciate Li Guolou's three-eyed flower feather?"

"The good emperor is the king of sages." The five military ministers said in unison

Li Guolou originally had double-eyed flower feathers plus a flower feather, which means that the status of a prince and important minister is completely in line with Li Guolou's military exploits.
