Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

In the same and same dynasty, Ceng Guofan was a great god that no one could avoid. Countless people looked up at him in admiration, the rise of his legend and the chaos caused by the Hong Yang was the origin of the rise of the Chinese warlord.

It was from Ceng Guofan onwards that the power of the Han Manipulation began to expand rapidly. The rich and powerful Han Manipulation in his hands quickly transformed into warlords, and in the next few decades he became the ruler of the Qing Dynasty.

In fact, during Guang Xu's era, the effective rule of the Manchu over the Great Qing had become very weak. The willow branches outside the pass gradually opened up, and the daoyin of Jiangnan and the new Chinese capitalists combined to form a sense of independence.

In fact, the Qing Dynasty of that era only had the right to rule over the various lands in terms of righteousness. In fact, they were no longer able to meddle in the internal affairs of the local daoyin.

Every year, a high official at the level of governor would pay the imperial government according to his mood. On the surface, it looked like the treasury would receive tens of millions of taels of silver a year, but the amount of money that would be withheld would be ten times more than that.

Even from the start of the Guang Xu Dynasty, the Manchu did not dare to kill the Han Manipulation anymore. As long as these Chinese people were not aware of the rebellion, no matter how much corruption they had, no matter how much self-possession they had, no one would be willing to pester them anymore, no matter how disrespectful and disrespectful they were.

The whole incident started from the moment Hong Yang became chaotic, starting from Ceng Guofan. The assassination attempt was Xiangjun Group's provocation of Qing Dynasty's Scarlet Fruit, it was extremely bloody and bold.

"Don't you Qing Dynasty dare not understand the situation. You guys can't get involved in Jiangnan. If you give me face, then I'll do you the best!" If you don't give our Xiang Army face, then I'm sorry! "No matter how many officials you send, we'll kill them all …"

"Unconvinced? If you don't accept it, why would you send troops to attack us? Attack! Do you dare to make a move? "

Of course, no one would tell Manchu these words, but almost all of the high officials of the Manchu could hear the collective ridicule from the Southern Xiangjun Group in their fantasies.

Helplessly, the dynastic doomsday had arrived. After killing your officials, you did not even fart in the end, showing how despotic Xiangjun Group was at that time.

In order to resolve this gigantic beast, the Qing Dynasty had used up all of their mechanical means. They used Qing Liu to force Ceng Guofan to lean on the side of the loyal and filial children, and then repeatedly invited Ceng Guofan to enter the capital as an official.

Viceroy was known as the number one governor of the world. When Ceng Guofan came here, he did not even need to stay to protect himself.

He believed that Ceng Guofan's life in the Beijing would be very comfortable. The officials and empress dowager would definitely treat him to a feast and a show every few days. If his body could still take it, then they would definitely send him beauties.

I only want you, Ceng Guofan, to be able to enjoy life in the capital.

However, the Manchu couldn't even imagine Ceng Guofan's crafty old fox. In order to invite the great marshal to head north, he had to go back and forth for three to four years.

Ever since Tianjing City had been breached, the imperial government had had the interest to send the great marshal to the north. However, Ceng Guofan had used this matter of heading north as his trump card, using the imperial government to fight.

Every time the imperial government did something that displeased him, he would say that the long-haired remnant had caused trouble again. He had to lead his troops to end the rebellion and keep playing this game again and again. This caused the imperial government to suffer unspeakably.

So much so that when Ceng Guofan and Xiao Letian formed some sort of secret alliance, his every move would secretly help Xiao Letian build up a lot of power.

When Xiao Letian broke through the Beijing, it was Ceng Guofan who took the initiative to state that this was not rebellion, but merely an effort on his part. He set a rhythm for Xiao Letian's actions, and in the end, all of the Han Manipulation responded one after another, leaving the foreigners with no choice.

This was the main reason why Xiao Letian had been the Regent in the capital for the past few months. If Ceng Guofan had not switched positions at that time and had instead rebelled, then he would have had to start a war with the Duke of Qin's army.

Ceng Guofan had also contributed greatly to the crisis of the Jiangnan Notes and the establishment of the Suzhou stock market. He had even risked his body to support Xiao Letian's platform, it could be said that the rapid expansion of the Jiangnan Hua Clan's power was inseparable from the contribution of the Great Marshal Zeng.

The candle was about to go out, the old man knew that he was not going to live this year, right now he was just hanging on to his life with precious herbs, the opium smoke was still hurting, and of course there was also the old farmer and a group of inner force experts to help him channel channels, which allowed him to have a bit of energy to deal with this complicated matter in the government.

All the changes in the Beijing could not escape the intelligent eyes of Xiao Letian. After Xiao Letian killed Molière, the Great Marshal immediately knew that there would be a huge change in the capital.

A war in the Far East had already turned into a life and death conflict with Russia. In addition to the fury of the French about to retaliate, the intervention of the foreign devils would surely disrupt the political balance in the court.

Who would take advantage of this conflict? Ceng Guofan used his heels to think that he was also a devil!

"We can't let the evildoer's sixth transition expand. We absolutely can't let His Majesty carry out a purge on the officials of the imperial court before he comes to power!" Must remain an official loyal to the Emperor... Prepare the ship to enter the capital! "

When Xiao Letian and Zai Chun were about to set sail for Europe, Ceng Guofan of Jiangning officially headed north in order to stabilize his position.

One thousand two hundred personal guards and twenty battleships sailed down the river from Jiangning Province. After the Sixth Order, Etiquette, and Alchemy Disciples arrived at the north of Yangzhou, they entered the Grand Canal.

Overmail, Ascension, and Baoying should be directed to Shanyang River and Huai River... Along the way, the military and civilians were apprehensive. When the Battalion Head's soldiers stationed at the border of the Xiang Army heard about the marshal's crossing, they were all stirred up.

There was an endless stream of riders from both sides of Grand Canal. The teleportation office would not stop for twenty-four hours a day.

"Marshal has arrived at Gao Feng's post, and the left wing of the Agility battalion is on the riverbank. The entire battalion is kneeling to welcome Marshal …"

"Tomorrow at noon, the commander ship will pass through BaoYing Lake. Along the way, the officers and soldiers will clean up the area and prepare to receive you …"

"Ten thousand people from BaoYing City, rest and fix the canal's levee, cover it with three inches of loess …"

The entire Grand Canal had completely stopped moving. The garrison troops and local officials stopped all the boats on the canal, some of them dispersing into the surrounding lakes, while some moved along the river sides to make way for the commander-in-chief's battleship.

The riverbank was covered with awnings, the officials waiting in advance were hot to the point that their entire bodies were covered with oil, cold tea was poured down bowl after bowl, and along the riverbank were soldiers with puffed out chests, protecting Grand Canal like javelins.

At the moment, all of the soldiers in Jiangnan that could fight were from the Xiang Army. After the war ended, all of the soldiers were sent to different provinces and provinces.

Many generals hadn't seen the Great Marshal in a few years. This time, as Ceng Guofan passed his territory, each and every one of them were extremely excited. Those Veterans of the Hundred Wars s had lost their usual slovenly looks and cleaned up like a groom.

They stood there armed and waiting for the marshal's inspection, just like they had in Tianjing City all those years ago.

"It's here!" The marshal's military ship had arrived... Fire the cannons! The gongs and drums chime together! "
