Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

In the 21st century, it was a very common thing for the government to forcefully seal the deal and intervene in the financial crisis. The government forcefully sealed the deal because in the 21st century, it was a very normal thing for the government to seal the deal.

However, this was the 19th mid-century leaf, the time when colonialism was at its fiercest. The fangs of the predators did not have a shred of pity in their hearts, they were willing to go to war for their own benefit, let alone a cake as big as Jiangnan.

All of a sudden, the Bankers of the different countries in Shanghai were in an uproar. People gathered together and strongly condemned the Qing Government's interference in the free market economy. It was not a joke to tell a semi-feudal, semi-colonial country something about the free economy.

The Jiangning Grand Commander's Estate was instantly buried by the protest telegram. These foreign devils were either in high spirits or acted according to logic. Some stood on the opposing side to point fingers, while others stood on the commander's side to patiently analyze … Of course, there were also arrogant people who wanted to go to the Beijing to complain, and there were even some who were shouting about how to activate the army and punish the Xiang Army.

After toppling the sweet cake, all of the Gentlemen turned into thugs and entered the stage one after another. At that moment, all the people in Xiang Army were dazzled by what they saw.

However, Ceng Guofan's heart was as firm as iron, he remained unmoved when faced with the protest of the strong, and the ban started to surge forward with an unstoppable force.

From the provincial capital to the prefectural city, from the prefectural city to the prefectural city, and from the prefectural city to every village and village. Allegations in vernacular were everywhere. Other than the official edition and the account number of the newspaper, it was distributed free of charge on the streets.

With the help of the Xiang Army's powerful enforcement ability and the promotional abilities of the newspapers, this Great Marshal Jiang Nan ban had already covered the entire Jiangnan region in just three days.

This was an efficiency that the people of the Middle Ancient World did not dare to imagine. The officials of the Great Qing Dynasty s at all levels had originally wanted to use the same deceptive methods to deal with Ceng Guofan, but they did not expect that after extending his arms for so long, they would actually send their soldiers to directly post a notice in the village.

Since ancient times, Chinese feudal dynasty had always emphasized on not leaving the county, which also meant that when the Emperor's command reached the county, it would be the end. The county magistrate, the local officials, the big clans, and so on had discussed and completed all matters below the county level.

This gave governance a lot of leeway. Many of the citizens in the county knew what the new government order was, but none of the villagers had heard anything about it. Many of the benefits had been swindled away.

The asymmetry of information leads to the people at the bottom of the food chain. For example, the emperor's grand wedding had to be free of taxes. Perhaps the citizens of Zhang Village and Li Village had no idea that there had once been such good governance after the birth of the emperor's son.

It was because they did not know that the extra money they paid for their taxes went to the officials' pockets.

But this time Ceng Guofan gave the absolute order, when he realized that there were places where someone had secretly destroyed the notice and taken a stroll to disturb the rumors, the Great Marshal's butcher knife chopped down without warning.

There were actually two Masters in Danyang County of Zhenjiang City who dared to spread rumors. The Xiang Army Steel Cavalry rushed into the great hall and kidnapped the two Grand Masters right in front of the county magistrate. They didn't even pass the trial and threw them at the crossroads, kacha kacha.

The constable head of Xing Hua County, Yang Prefecture, actually secretly destroyed the prohibition notice. After being informed, the informants blocked half of Bao Chao's path with twelve personal guards and tried on the edge of Wu Gong Lake, showing off to the public.

The Crown Prince of Liuhe County of Jiangning County had actually secretly violated the rules. He had secretly gone through the formalities of transferring people to a foreign merchant house, and had even dared to seal the county magistrate's seal. This was intolerable. The old farmer personally led the team and brought this dog official to Jiangning City. The great marshal personally interrogated him overnight, and in the end, beat him to a pulp.

There were so many such cases that the foreign buyers who thought they could achieve their goals through corrupt officials were completely dumbfounded.

When the foreign devils in Shanghai saw that Ceng Guofan did not give them any face at all, they angrily pressured the ambassadors of the Beijing and strongly urged them to stop this ridiculous ban.

The entire Forbidden City has been in an uproar for a long time now. Ever since the news of Ma Xinyi being assassinated in the streets was spread to the palace, Ci Xi was so frightened that he collapsed onto the soft couch. Isn't this weird! How could he be killed? How could he have been killed? "

The death of Ma Xinyi caused Ci Xi's judgement of the Xiang Army to go completely awry. In the peaceful period after the Heavenly Kingdom was exterminated, the low eyebrows of the Zeng Family brothers were easily paralyzed by the imperial government. Everyone had forgotten that these people were all tigers that survived the war, they had even forgotten how they looked when they ate humans.

Prince Kung Yi, Prince alcohol, Ci Xi and the others were all stunned. They subconsciously wanted to force it, but when they carefully studied the resources in their hands, they realized that they did not have the strength to fight against the five hundred thousand Xiang Army s.

Do you dare to hit Ceng Guofan or scold Ceng Guofan? Do you dare to send troops to wipe him out? If the imperial government was stronger, and Ceng Guofan was stronger, how would the imperial government react?

Even though the five hundred thousand Xiang Army s were said to have eliminated over a hundred thousand, and Zuo Zongtang took another hundred thousand, the remaining three hundred thousand was still a frightening number.

At that time, Ci Xi sent an imperial decree to summon Weng Tonghe to the palace. No matter how he thought about it, the most effective method was to use a clear stream to pressure this old one.

In the past, there were Han Chinese who used to control the enemy, but now, there was a Manchu who used to control the enemy.

While Weng Tonghe sighed about the difficulties of the imperial government, he also had to send a telegram to Jiang Ning to find out more about it in his private capacity. However, when he received Ceng Guofan's secret guarantee, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Empress Dowager, Prince …" Great Marshal Zeng has already made it clear that he wants nothing more than a two-month ban. This is his last request to leave Jiangnan, no matter what happens in two months, he won't interfere anymore! "

"Ai …" I think the Great Marshal only wants to bet on Xiao Letian's luck. Maybe the Great Marshal still has some illusions? "

With a "pa" sound, Ci Xi broke the enamel fingernail sheath on his hand. Damn, did he really think that Xiao Letian was invincible? You Chinese are incomprehensible... And you're still fantasizing about the fate of the Chinese? "

"Keep dreaming, you Chinese have already exhausted all of your Qi. Even if our Manchu falls, the Chinese will have all their Qi suppressed by the foreigners! Be your dreams, what do you mean by that? "Don't forget that foreign devils are also Sidi …"

"Alright, alright, alright. I'll see what abilities Xiao Letian has left in the end. I'll wait for him for two months!"

The curtains of the war had now completely opened. All the powers in East Asia had completed their own arrangements, just like a bet that the dice cup would soon be opened.

All of the gamblers had already placed their bets. All that was left was to see how Fate would turn things around. The focus of the world instantly focused on East Asia.

"I have no regrets in betting on him!"
