Edo Traveler

"Who is the one who came to meet the warship this time?"

Sukeliu returned to Edo from Shanghai, and because Katsukaishu was a naval officer, he needed to stay for a few more days to have a little handover with the Qing soldiers.

"It's Dolonga, the royal family of the Qing emperor." Zhu Liu and Dolonga saw each other, but they also realized that the other party was a person.

"Ow! It's the royal family of the Qing emperor." Chuyouemon nodded.

Shangsanqi is not the family of the royal family, maybe it can also be called "homecoming", in short, it is very close to the emperor Tongzhi, and belongs to the cronies.

"It's just that this Dorona is not familiar with the navy..." Zu Liu also saw it.

Who told Dolonga to enter Shanghai with a team of more than 2,000 horses, and his immediate skills were very good, which made Zhu Liu remember fresh. It's just a cavalry general who suddenly came to bring the modern navy, isn't it a bit...

Chuyouemon thought what the heck, the Beiyang navy in history was directly brought by Ding Ruchang. Ding Ruchang didn't lead the horse team before? As long as you are willing to learn, leading troops to fight this set of things, everything is perfect. If you are good at land combat, after some study, you can often be able to fight well at sea.

Besides, Duolong A Manchurian white flag, just because of this background, it is destined that he can lead soldiers and hold power if he has a little ability.

"Let's talk about the details." Chungyouemon asked Zhu Liu not to worry about who the Manchu Qing sent to take over the navy, just talk about what he saw in Shanghai and the capital, and it was over.

"Speaking of the Qing Dynasty's young master approaching the dynasty, there is also chaos in the country..."

Although Chuemon has a little foresight about history, it is unlikely to be specific to what month and date. Just listen to help six talk.

As we said earlier, Jiang Customs now has 6.83 million taels of tariff silver a year, which is an income that the court is very eager for. But because Shanghai was surrounded by Taiping troops in all directions, the situation was in danger. Whether it is foreigners or businessmen inside and outside Shanghai, they all need the help of Zeng Guofan's army, so this money can't move for a while.

The imperial court hoped that Qian Jie would go to the capital, but Zeng Guofan might not have wanted the money to stay in Jiangsu, so that he could allocate troops nearby. The matter of the two sides competing for the money, of course, is still under the table, but the Prince Gong and the Queen Mother of the two palaces on the stage are not willing to give up just like that.

Just in time for the proposal to build a navy, the small and medium-sized soldiers sold by the Tokugawa shogunate continued to drive to Shanghai, which in fact increased the defense force for Shanghai. So naturally, the Qing court hoped to take this opportunity to completely control Jianghaiguan in its own hands.

It is necessary and certain to send a real Manchuria to Shanghai!

Only the real Manchuria can gain the cronies of the upper-level rulers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. This is actually the court and Zeng Guofan's struggle for financial power.

However, Shanghai itself has become an isolated island in the turbulent sea because of the frequent offensives of the Taiping Army and the loss of Suzhou, Changzhou, Huzhou, Hangzhou and other places.

At this time, the foreigners and Chinese gentry in Shanghai no longer cared who came to Shanghai. His life and money urgently needed a team of horses to protect him. It didn’t matter whether you came from Zeng Guoquan or Dolong Alai, you just had to bring troops.

Why did Purus so readily hand over the 900,000 tariff silver to the shogunate, in fact, because the foreigners in Shanghai were a little anxious, worried that they would be completely surrounded and killed by more than 300,000 Taiping troops. Then not only will the concession of Shanghai be lost, but their lives may also be in danger. …

At this time, the Qing court set up naval divisions in Shanghai and dispatched horse teams, which was actually in line with the ideas of everyone in Shanghai. The gentry in Shanghai were very happy, and it was said that they had raised 180,000 taels of silver as rewards and salaries for Dolonga's troops.

Now the navy and soldiers are gathering in Shanghai, and another two or three thousand elite Hummer teams have arrived. What's next? Of course, I hope that Dolonga will take the initiative to attack and lift the Taiping army's siege of Shanghai.

Dolonga was determined to fight for the great achievement of recovering Jiangning City in Nanjing, and naturally he was willing to fight. He asked the court to select the elite bannermen from the Frontier Battalion, the Shotgun Battalion, and the Sauron Battalion, and quickly head south. However, the flag members were eliminated, this selection took a long time, and Dolonga couldn't wait.

He has to establish his authority first in Shanghai!

So Doron Azi led the horse
