The Sun Never Sets Great China

Regarding Zhang Huahan’s past history, Zhang Huahan remembered that the Spaniards in his own time and space had carried out three massacres on the Chinese in Manila in the [-]th century, once in the Wanli period, once in the late Ming Dynasty, and again later.

The current time and space may be the reason why the Dutch Navy suffered heavy losses on the Yangtze River by the Chinese Revolutionary Army and the reason why the Zheng family made good friends with the Western Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Japan and other countries. The second and third massacres did not happen. Zhang Huahan still I thought those Spaniards would have some scruples and stop the massacre, but I didn't expect that there would be another massacre in Manila this time.

The next day, all the officials of the Chinese Empire got the news of the Manila massacre. They all had a premonition that the military would take action. The distance is the shortest. When the Imperial Chinese Navy fleet showed great power and defeated the Dutch Navy fleet, the Spaniards dared to provoke so nakedly, which is very puzzling.

At first, some officials didn't believe it, but when they got the exact news from Liu Xiaoliu to various departments, they all became angry. The Chinese Empire didn't say that the irresponsible overseas abandoned people in the Ming and Qing dynasties, on the contrary, they encouraged The Chinese people went overseas, and the rich income from overseas trade is well known to all ministers and officials. Moreover, the trading bases of various merchants in the Chinese Empire are overseas. The stability of overseas is related to the vital interests of countless merchants.

Many people thought of Huang Ziya and Zhang Huahan's office to ask to see the two chairmen yesterday, and proposed to lead troops to punish the Spaniards, but they both locked themselves in the study tacitly and did not see anyone, so they gave up.

All the generals of the military headquarters have arrived. The generals staying at the military headquarters are all the senior generals of the First Group Army guarding the capital and various places in the north. It was withdrawn, so now only the First Army is free.

In addition to Vice Minister Liu Shijie and a group of military officials and chiefs of staff, Mo Xiao, Commander of the First Army, Li Gaoshun, Deputy Commander and Commander of the First Army, Tian Fengyao, Commander of the Second Army, Wang Daogong, Commander of the Third Army, Yao Zhenxing, Chief of the Fourth Army, and Li Guangnian, Commander of the First Division of the First Army, Wang Wu, Commander of the Second Division of the First Army, Wen Wucai, Commander of the First Division of the Second Army, Bai Shuangjian, Commander of the Second Division of the Second Army, Ma Qiang, Commander of the First Division of the Third Army, Wen Jiuzhou, Commander of the Second Division of the Third Army, Wu Wu, Commander of the First Division of the Fourth Army, and Su Yonggang, Commander of the Second Division of the Fourth Army It's all here.

"Today, I want to discuss with you the massacre of the Spaniards." As soon as Liu Shijie finished speaking, Li Gaoshun interjected, "Then there's no need to discuss it. One word is to beat and kill all the Western Yi who offended my Chinese empire." Absolutely."

"That's right, this Bangxiyi doesn't know etiquette, just like animals, they don't know how to advance or retreat unless they are hurt. I will personally invite Chairman Zhang to go out later." It was Mo Xiao who spoke, Mo Xiao has always had a soft spot for fighting, Seeing a few old brothers fighting everywhere, and he could only guard the capital, he already felt itchy in his heart. If Zhang Huahan was willing to let him fight, he would rather be a commander of the army, no, a division commander would also be successful, and he would not be a The commander who can only stay in the capital.

"Commander-in-Chief, you don't need to use a sledgehammer to kill chickens. You don't have to fight. I think it's more than enough for me to lead my division to deal with those barbarians." Li Guangnian, the commander of the first army and division, jumped out to object. Just kidding, your commander-in-chief personally leads the troops Expedition?Who will be responsible for guarding the capital?Can't there be no army commander in the capital? Even if Chairman Zhang agrees, he must resolutely oppose it.

Mo Xiao was just talking, knowing that even if he invites Zhang Huahan to fight, it is impossible for him to really let him go. Since he became the commander of the first division of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, he is destined to be the life guard of the family, and he will fight the most intense battle. The battle was the one against the Dutch and the Japanese invaders. He said resentfully: "Forget it, a division with 5000 troops is enough to fight a Manila. Minister Liu, have you communicated with the Ministry of Finance? Won't you hold back this time?"

"What did Commander Mo say? When did the Ministry of Finance hold back the army's expedition? As long as it should be spent, the Ministry of Finance will collect the required military expenses no matter what." A voice came from outside the door. It turned out to be Liu Guotao, the Minister of Finance. coming.

Immediately following Liu Guotao, two more people came in from the outside. They were the Minister of Intelligence Liu Xiaoliu and the Minister of Staff Wang Xiaolong. , I heard that yesterday he locked himself in his room for most of the day."

Almost all those who wanted to see the two chairmen yesterday knew this news. After Wang Xiaolong said this, everyone understood that Zhang Huahan would never let the Spaniard go, and he would definitely set off as soon as possible. Maybe he will send troops today. confirm.

It is now the beginning of March, last year's taxes have been put into the treasury, and now the national treasury is full. Apart from the hundreds of millions of silver coins of the central bank, which dare not be put into the market to cause fluctuations, there are more than 3000 million of military expenses deducted from last year's taxes and taxes. Regarding the surplus of silver coins, Finance Minister Liu Guotao said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, isn't it just to attack Manila? The Ministry of Finance will list a special military expenditure of 100 million silver coins, which is enough to flatten Manila."

With a chuckle, Li Gaoshun shook his head and said, "One million silver coins? It's enough to flatten Manila? The Ministry of Finance is too stingy. The Xiyi are so vicious and vicious. What are they relying on? Isn't their lair tens of thousands of miles away?" Besides, since they dare to come here unscrupulously, why can't we go to the west? If they dare to come and slaughter our people, we dare to go to their borders to kill people." Following Mo Xiao, Li Gaoshun also became a poor child guarding his family. I can't wait to lead the team directly into Europe to fight a big battle.

Everyone suddenly said "ah". After so many years of study, it is impossible for the senior officials of the Chinese Empire to know nothing about the world. On the contrary, most of the geographical knowledge is almost known to everyone.However, even Wang Xiaolong, Liu Xiaoliu, and Liu Shijie, who have followed Zhang Huahan for many years, never thought about going to the west. Whether it is land or water, the distance is tens of thousands of miles. If you really want to go to the west, you need to go around. Half of the world, the difficulties can be imagined.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Li Gaoshun smiled and said: "Why, do I think that I am not as good as those barbarians, so they are only allowed to come? We are not allowed to go?"

"Okay, if the military department can come up with a plan and send suitable candidates, the Ministry of Finance will support it first!" Provoked by Li Gaoshun, Liu Guotao immediately stated that the Ministry of Finance has no problem. "There is no problem with the Ministry of Finance, so we have no problem with the Ministry of War." Li Gaoshun interjected, and Liu Shijie, who was held by Li Gaoshun, also patted his chest and quickly expressed his opinion, while Mo Xiao also expressed silence.

"I just don't know if there is any problem with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?" "I don't know what kind of support the Intelligence Department can provide this time?" Everyone said one by one.

The work of the intelligence department has undoubtedly achieved outstanding results in the past few years. There are also many intelligence personnel of Liu Xiaoliu in Manila. Unfortunately, the Spaniards blocked all ports before the massacre, and no information can be passed on. In addition, Zhang Nianshan, the head of the Nanyang intelligence department, is in Malacca. Busy, did not get any news from Manila. When the massacre happened, these intelligence personnel could only run for their lives. Many personnel also died in the massacre. Come out, otherwise, the capital of the Chinese Empire is not close to Manila, and the information was not obtained quickly, and the news of the Manila massacre would not have been received after more than ten days.

At this time, Xiaoyue and Zhang Huahan came in. Zhang Huahan looked around for a week and saw that several cronies from other departments under him had also come to the military headquarters. The barbarians blatantly killed tens of thousands of unarmed civilians in our Chinese empire. This behavior is nothing short of beasts! Some people used to say that the Mongols were barbaric and cruel, but they still left behind men and young women who were taller than wheels, while the Spaniards didn’t even have babies. Forgive me, the news from the Ministry of Intelligence shows that the people of the Chinese Empire in Manila, apart from fleeing to the forest and temporarily hiding in few people, have survived the massacre by the Spaniards. The Spaniards deceived our empire Too much, the Chinese Empire and the Spaniards have a bitter hatred, and the Spaniards are not as good as animals, so I decided to wipe the Spaniards from the earth, what do you think?"

Hearing Zhang Huahan's words, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Chairman Zhang is worthy of being Chairman Zhang, and he speaks loudly. We just said to hit their lair, and Chairman Zhang is probably planning to subvert Spain. Since everyone is not satisfied with Just attacking the Spaniards in Manila, Mo Xiao stood up first and said: "The Spaniards dare to offend the majesty of our empire and slaughter my tens of thousands of civilians for no reason. The crime is to exterminate the whole family!"

Everyone agreed to this proposal, and Liu Shijie said: "I thought that one of the division commanders could be selected as the commander-in-chief, and one division would be enough to wipe out the Spanish in Manila. As for the candidates for attacking Spain, we still need to choose from the navy. I don't know. Given the strength of Spain, it is really impossible to know how much navy should be mobilized, and the navy cannot be mobilized at present, and it will take some time to be mobilized."

Zhang Huahan nodded and said, "Don't be busy in Spain. Let's talk about it later. Now that we are attacking Manila, I want to go out to show everyone in person, to show our country's determination." Hearing the first half of Zhang Huahan's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief Well, Zhang Huahan has not been too impulsive, otherwise everyone would know nothing about the Spanish mainland. If Zhang Huahan immediately sent people around half the world to attack Spain, then no one would be sure.But the second half of the sentence made everyone think again, what?Zhang Huahan wants to conscript himself?What are you doing?Who will handle a lot of military affairs, government affairs and business affairs, just sign it without looking at it, Zhang Huahan said no, who dares to say yes?What's more, Zhang Huahan, who has a vision of the future, puts forward opinions that are absolutely wise when dealing with far-sighted affairs. It is impossible to be wise. The experience accumulated by the wisdom of countless smart people makes Zhang Huahan indeed an extraordinary person in this era. At that time, if something goes wrong, it will be broken, not to mention that the research institutes and research institutes under Huang Zongxi's department in many countries ask him for help every day. Zhang Huahan can't leave the capital no matter what.

"No, the chairman must not go. Manila is a small place. We don't need to ask you to conscript yourself. Now it is not the same as before. The burden on you is very heavy. Once you leave, some important national affairs will be paralyzed. You must not go , for the benefit of the country and the benefit of the people." Wang Xiaolong belongs to a group of old people who are second only to Zhang Huahan and Huang Ziya, so his words are naturally very important.And everyone also echoed him to dissuade Zhang Huahan from leaving the capital by himself.

In fact, when Zhang Huahan said yesterday that he wanted to conscript himself when he was emotionally unstable, he knew that it was unrealistic for him to conscript himself, because he couldn’t leave the capital at all, and he was really afraid of making mistakes when he left countless things. After all, only he knew some things, and others People can't replace him at all, but yesterday I told Liu Shijie that I would go out in person, and this must be said. Naturally, a group of people know that he can't leave the capital and will naturally persuade him.

"Well, I won't go for the benefit of the country and the people. I plan to use Wei Xiaobao to command the naval fleet, but you should choose someone to be the commander-in-chief of the army." Zhang Huahan said.

"Chairman Zhang, I think Major General Li Guangnian, the commander of one army and one division, is competent. His troops are in the outskirts of the capital, and the speed of assembly is also fast, and it is also fast to board the ship from Tianjin Port and head south. General Li has experienced many battles and is rich in experience. The best candidate to capture Manila this time." Deputy Commander Li Gaoshun knew that he and Mo Xiao were brothers in trouble, and they would definitely not be able to go, so he recommended his top general to go out.

The other troops were either guarding the capital, or they were scattered around for training or guarding important areas, and they couldn't be mobilized at all. Therefore, Major General Li Guangnian's troops had the highest priority to start, so everyone also seconded him.

Zhang Huahan nodded and said: "Okay, Major General Li Guangnian." Seeing Zhang Huahan nodding, Mo Xiao said: "Chairman, this time the army is crossing the sea and needs the protection of the navy. I want to apply for the transfer of two ironclad ships from Shi Lang. Escort for the Army."

"You don't have to worry about this, I already asked Liu Shijie to handle it yesterday, Liu Shijie, has the order been issued?" Zhang Huahan said.

"Understood, Chairman, Wei Xiaobao will lead two ironclad warships and five ships to join the army at Tianjin Port." Liu Shijie said, and the relevant officials also said: "Chairman, I will apply to the Ministry of Finance to list the special military expenses for this expedition. ""Okay, leave it to Minister Liu."

When Zhang Huahan and various departments were preparing for the war with the Spanish army in Manila, the propaganda agencies of the Chinese empire were mobilized immediately, and countless storytellers spread the massacre of the Chinese by the Spanish in Manila to every corner of the empire. Everyone who heard this was filled with righteous indignation, and the Chinese Empire also expelled all the Spaniards from the country, and strictly ordered businessmen to stop trading with the Spaniards.

At the same time, Chairman Huang Ziya of the Chinese Empire ordered relevant officials to build monuments to commemorate the dead Chinese after the Chinese Imperial Army captured Manila, and to build monuments in Manila and Quanzhou, where the most victims were at the same time, so that future generations will always remember the Spaniards shameless face.

The publicity of the massacre of the Spaniards caused the common people to make a wrong move of excitement and indignation. The common people spontaneously expelled the Westerners in the territory. They couldn't tell the Portuguese, the British or the Spaniards at all.Anyway, when they saw foreigners with white skin and deep noses, they expelled them, and even some businessmen from the Western Regions suffered.

After many incidents of white people being beaten happened in succession across the country, the officials of the propaganda department affiliated to the Ministry of Intelligence were taken aback. They quickly changed the direction of public opinion and called on the common people to stop attacking white people. The white people who stayed in the empire were safe and sound Ji's businessmen, those Spaniards had already been expelled by the court, and at the same time severely cracked down on some people who deliberately made troubles, this trend of attacking white people gradually extinguished.

Li Guangnian, the commander of the first army and first division, quickly gathered his troops and marched to Tianjin quickly. He waited for Zhang Huahan to collect enough ships before he could set off.

Since the navy fleet does not have enough ships, most of the troop transport ships come from civilian merchant ships. Now that the ice and snow in the north are melting, it is the peak season for northern sea trade. Even if the ship owner is willing, it is not easy to recruit ships. Fight across the sea. Safety considerations require large ships, and ordinary small ships cannot be used. However, under Zhang Huahan's order and Zhang Cai's organization, all the ports in the northern Shandong Peninsula, Bohai Bay, Liaozhou Peninsula and other places are filled with cargo. The merchant ship suddenly unloaded desperately, and then rushed to Tianjin, where the army was assembled.

It took half a month for the large ships needed by the military to be collected. This time can be said to be very fast. For more than 5000 soldiers, more than 300 cannons alone will be transported, and there are also the same number of small steel guns. Cannons, plus guns, ammunition, food, personnel, and war horses, Zhang Cai helped to collect more than [-] large ships with a load capacity of more than [-] tons.

The total transport volume of these ships has reached [-] tons. This is the reason why Li Guangnian only carried [-] war horses. If he brought all the tens of thousands of war horses from a division, plus the same amount of fodder, he might collect a few more horses. Ten ships are not enough.

As soon as the cannon was fired, the gold was ten thousand taels. Before the war started, the money from the Ministry of Finance was spent like flowing water. The monthly rent paid by the Ministry of Households for the more than 15 ships alone reached 20 silver coins. They, especially some merchant ships of the "Zhang Lu Group", discounted the army of the Chinese Empire. If compensation is really based on the loss of the ship owner, I am afraid that it will be more than 20, plus various expenses, materials, armaments, and fodder for the troops. And food, etc., have not yet gone to sea, and the Ministry of Finance has spent more than [-] silver coins.
