Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The CIA's branch in the depths of the twenty-metre long secret passage. The moment Xiao Xiu Lian unlocked the door and opened it, he was shocked by the bustling scene in front of him.

The room was not big, only around a hundred square meters. However, in the middle of the room was a gigantic sand table from the Jiang-Nan region. On the surrounding walls, there were countless Military Maps s, corresponding to the latitude and longitude of the sand table.

Zai Chun had already received basic mathematics education, but in fact, in the Forbidden City's Royal Education System, there were already courses on Western Mathematics. At that time, Kang Xi himself was an expert in geometry.

When Zai Chun arrived at the Ryukyu, Xiao Letian especially gave him a lot of math knowledge. He had to make up for it, because if a normal person did not have a foundation in math, even he would not be able to understand Military Maps.

The biggest difference between a Military Maps and a civilian map was that one was more detailed, while the other one had a contour line. In the eyes of a wise man, a 2D map of a flat surface could be formed into a 3D map with a single glance.

It could be said that looking at the military map was the perspective of God. The series of numbers outlined a detailed three-dimensional world.

In a battle between two armies, one side used the 2D map that was previously clear to the public, while the other side used an advanced 3D map.

The generals of the Qing Dynasty had to make preparations in advance so that the horses could feel exactly what was high and what was low on the battlefield. There was also water and forest and shrubs.

The generals who owned the new type of map didn't need to waste such a long time, because the spies had already drawn everything into the map long before the battle had even begun.

They had already deduced the location of the high ground and artillery position countless times on this small map. If they were to snatch the water source and poison it, then they would be able to seize the limelight and set it on fire.

Xiao Letian knew that the only thing that could replace Military Maps s were the future generations of computers. This was because the computer system could truly simulate a 3D map, and with the help of the satellite system, the detailed map was unimaginable.

There was a line of telegraph s against the wall around the information center. They carefully camouflaged their wires and connected them with the telegraph master network through dozens of secret connections. Dozens of telegrams were sent back and forth every day, and the movements of the Jiangnan CIA were controlled by this brain.

When he reached there, Xiao Letian had the feeling that he had just entered the Three Armies Command Headquarters. He was very clear that the current command system of the Ryukyu was not inferior to that of Europe.

Zai Chun childishly pounced towards the edge of the Jiangnan sand table. He first found the direction to the north, then muttered to himself, "Go north to south, left to west to right, and east to east... This is the west side, which is Shanghai. "This is the east side, oh, this is Wuhan …"

Zai Chun could understand the military map, but he could also understand the military emblem on the sand table. All of the Xiang Army's troops and defenses were displayed on the sand table.

The names of the Xiang Army Generals and a series of numbers were written on the small wooden tablet and placed at different locations on the sand table. Ceng Guofan's troops could be seen at a glance, all of the defenses in the mountain pass were extremely clear.

As the telegram went back and forth, the temporarily changed defensive information was quickly reflected on the map. The small wooden signs were either inserted in another place or the numbers were erased and written up again.

Gradually, Zai Chun's excited face became lonely. "Master, no wonder you don't want to train too many soldiers, with such a powerful information network, giving you forty to fifty thousand troops, you can definitely defeat the Xiang Army's army of five hundred thousand!"

"Not to mention you, even I have found countless loopholes in the sand. As long as the information is in your hands, the army can cut holes in the battlefield, lead the enemy by the nose, drag down the elite soldiers, and harass the weak soldiers. In the end, annihilate them in one go …"

Xiao Letian held Zai Chun's shoulders and said, "You should slowly learn. Technology is not something you can see. For example, the prevalence of telegraph line, is destined to change the entire pattern of war … "

"Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry... All kinds of subjects would intensify the changes in this world. If a country wanted to stand tall in this world's national forest, they had to depend on their overall strength … Let's go, let's go take a look at the's landlords, it's time to eat them! "

After walking past the command center, he then went around two small secret tunnels, and a group of people came out of a cabinet in the study. Zai Chun finally realised that the secret pathway had already cleared through many of the houses, and many of the ordinary families who were hidden in the houses were the resting grounds of the CIA.

After walking around for a while, he finally walked past a gap in the wall and pushed open the secret door. It was actually a storage room, and the interior was filled with rice noodles, and the ceiling beams were filled with cured meat and various baskets. Xiao Letian extended his hand and took out a pine flower egg from the jar at the side of the wall, and gave it to Zai Chun: "Taste it, I am afraid there are very few people in the palace who would give you this …"

After Xiao Letian and the rest walked out of the house, they arrived at the backyard of the restaurant. The manager and the waiter had been waiting for a while, and upon seeing Xiao Letian and Zai Chun, they immediately kowtowed.

The head storekeeper's teary eyes were full of excitement, but he couldn't say anything fast. "Sir …" Please... "The third floor has been cleared. Your esteemed guest is waiting for you …"

The group of people ascended the stairs, and in the end, only Xiao Letian, Zai Chun and Hu Xueyan were left at the door.

In the warm room, when Ceng Guofan and Ceng Guoquan, who were standing at the top of their pillars, saw Tongzhi, they immediately kneeled on the ground and kowtowed nine times.

"This old official pays his respect to Your Majesty! Long live our Emperor, long live your Majesty! "

"Rise, my two beloved officials, rise!" Zai Chun quickly went to support the two of them, and when Ceng Guofan stood up, the Great Marshal Zeng fired at him just as he was about to speak.

"Xiao Letian! You taking His Majesty out to study is a righteous act, why is it that you're hiding so much? Can't the Son of Heaven come to Jiangnan? "Why don't you show me your Heavenly God technique?"

"White Dragon Fish Robe, if anything happens to you, I, five hundred thousand Xiang Army, will definitely not let you off!"

Looking at the furious Ceng Guofan, Xiao Letian shrugged his shoulders. "Alright, alright, Great Marshal Zeng, calm down first, you know better than me what is going on within the imperial court right now. Those from the Beijing would agree to it … Don't get angry at me, it's been a long time since we've met. Why aren't you reminiscing about the past! "

"Humph!" "I'll deal with you later …" The five Great Qing's were able to shake the entire country with a stomp of their feet. Finally, they sat together and ate a banquet that affected the recent history of China.
