Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The Military Intelligence Service was dead silent. Everyone felt as if their hearts were pressed against a stone. No one could break this trap, but everyone was still unwilling!

could make the farming civilization resist the invasion of the Northern nomadic peoples in a more economical way, but the importance of the Qing Dynasty had already been taken away!

In this epoch, the threat from the north had become the ruler. The strategic significance of the Great Wall was decreasing, and at the same time, the strategic importance of the Grand Canal was increasing!

The Qing Dynasty's political Center was in the north, but the economy was heavily reliant on the south, especially the most fundamental of grain security problems!

Jiangnan and the two lakes regions are the most important grain producing areas in Qing Dynasty. Although Sichuan is also a country of Heavenly Province, the entire basin is surrounded by mountains and it is very difficult to transport grain out.

In the north, they could only rely on the grain in the Jiangnan and Hubei regions to make up for the deficit, but the grain here had to be transported by water to Zhenjiang, and from there, they had to enter the Grand Canal to transport them!

During First Opium War's time, Dao Guang Emperor still fought with a bit of backbone, regardless of whether they won or lost, it did not have much of an impact on the entire Qing Kingdom's economy!

At that time, the Qing Dynasty believed that the UK was just like the pirates in the past. As long as they protected the sea well, Da Ming could eliminate the pirates, and the Daqing could also eliminate the British!

Furthermore, at that time, Official was not an idiot. Of course, they understood the accounts of the supplies. The fresh water and food in British could be looted, but where were the gunpowder?

This was very hard to replenish, just a little bit more, and it would be beneficial to the Qing Dynasty to drag on for a bit!

This was why Lin Zexu and the other main fighting factions were using their local advantage to hold on to their strategy. In fact, they were waiting for the British to use up all of their logistics!

That epoch was a set of Sail battleship. If the UK's supplies were to be delivered from a distant Lion City or even from a India, it would be unreliable!

The war had actually persisted for two years, and the war potential of the UK had almost been squeezed dry. It was only when the British Army had desperately fought his way into the mouth of the Yangtze River and fought his way into the river, fighting a fierce battle with the Qing Army in Nanjing that the entire Qing Ting was shaken!

The key point was still in Zhenjiang's economy!

After breaching Zhenjiang, the Fleet s of the British Army could be considered to have completely trapped the economic lifeline of the north and south of the Great Qing Kingdom. The Silver of the south and all kinds of supplies, especially the grain s, would not be able to transport even a single grain of it to the Capital!

Dao Guang Emperor panicked, and had no choice but to admit defeat!

This was a tragic past that no one in the Qing Ting was willing to talk about, but even if everyone did not say it, it did not mean that they did not know.

Is there a solution to this? With the current strength of the Qing Army, although they have made great progress compared to 1840, don't forget that the Enemy has progressed even faster!

Now, the Chinese had already started to fully push all the way to the Primordial Level! This kind of strong cannons was not something that the poor old field Artillery in the hands of the Qing army could handle!

As for those old garrison cannons, they were even less of a threat, as for the naval gun s imported from the Chinese, they could easily destroy any of the Qing Dynasty's walls!

Zhenjiang was an unguarded city to the Navy of the Chinese. They did not need to use the Army to solve it themselves!

Those in Military Intelligence Service today were all well-informed, and did not have many useless idiots, so they could understand the dao in there!

Minister of War's lips trembled, but he still wanted to retort, "Your Majesty … But Zhenjiang is no longer the same as before. After destroying the long hair, we will increase the number of troops, increase the number of cannons, build up the city wall … "

"What's more … Xiang Jun who has been through hundreds of battles in Jiangnan would never be as impudent as you … "

These words were said by Ying Gui but he had lost his confidence. In the end, he just shut his mouth, now he still dared to rely on Xiang Jun? From the incident with the Thorn Horse, Qing Ting had already understood that the Han people of half a wall of Jiangnan were not willing to return it to you!

You should have paid the taxes and paid the rations, but you're just secretly happy. Do you really think that they will die?

And all these years, the Chinese's economy had opened up a path, and the West was imbued with knowledge. Just how many people were holding onto two sides of the wall in the Xiang Jun? This was something that no one could explain!

Bao Yun let out a long sigh. This official knows that there is nothing I can do about it! "However, I have one last request. Can you eliminate Zhenjiang from these twenty-eight industrial zones?"

"You should know the importance of this place. You must not let anyone insert knife s here!"

Zai Chun shook his head: "Do you think we do not understand this logic? We have talked about it before, but the Head of State has made it clear! Special Administrative Region Zhenjiang's position is superior, right beside Grand Canal, he also wants to send goods to the north! "

"That's why Zhenjiang will not give in, but Master has also promised me that the number of troops in Zhenjiang Industrial District will be strictly limited to half of the number of troops in our Daqing.

"What about the Jiangyin?" Bao Yun hurriedly asked: "Can you also eliminate the Jiangyin's industrial area? The Your Majesty cannot be given to the Chinese! "

The old man asked anxiously: "Why?"

"Master Weng doesn't know, but Jiangyin is too important a place. Guard Yangtze River from the north, control Tai Hu from the south … … "Along the river, there are the Flowermont, Xiao Shan, Zhang Shan and other mountain ranges. Furthermore, there is a Twin Mountains Island within the river!"

"The entire Jiangyin is the key portal to the entrance of the Yangtze River. On the summit of the mountain, even if you set up an ordinary Artillery, you can easily fight them to the other side!"

"This subject has long planned to increase the number of troops here, and also to import the s for shore defense. As long as this place is controlled by my Daqing, we will take control of the gate!"

"All the ships in Dajiang are in our range! This is an important military location, the Your Majesty cannot lose it! "

After listening, Zai Chun's face changed, followed by a deep expression of loneliness "I'm afraid … "There is no room for negotiation!"

"This twenty-eight industrial zones, is already Head of State's bottom line … Do you know that the earliest secret agreement was still set up in Henan, Shandong and other industrial areas in the central origin's hinterland? "

"At that time, the number of industrial zones was forty-eight … We have already done everything we could to bargain with you! "

"The situation is difficult! This is the root of my determination to reinvent myself... I want to constantly improve myself, and I would like to ask all of you love letter to lend me a hand! "

"We cannot always defend and defend Daqing. Building our own Navy is the only way to get rid of our enemies outside our own country!"

"I have made up my mind!" Let's do it this way! "

Zai Chun stood up with incomparable sorrow, and began to walk outside with heavy footsteps, an unhealthy flush appearing on his face!

"Let's do it this way. We'll take a look at it later and issue it together in front of the Grand marriage …"

When Zai Chun walked past Weng Tonghe, the old man impolitely grabbed onto Kaiser's sleeves. "Your Majesty! If you continue to act like this today, how will you face the history books and brush? "

"How can you face the ancestors of the Daqing!"
