Cixi "Dong Fuxiang, how do you look like this? Aren’t you a Tianjin guard? Why did you suddenly come to Beijing? "
Dong Fuxiang gasped and replied, "Speaking of Galeries Lafayette, Britain, France, Germany and other countries, Tianjin gathered more than 20 warships and launched a fierce offensive. In just over a day, it captured Dagukou battery commander Luo Rongguang and almost hundreds of officers and men died in Dagukou."
"What? Dagukou has fallen! "
The DPRK’s ministers were shocked. One day after the declaration of war, Dagukou was lost!
Dong Fuxiang went on to say, "After Galeries Lafayette’s allied fleet occupied Dagukou, thousands of allied troops landed later, and more than 10,000 teams from Dagukou landed and launched a fierce attack on Tianjin. The few soldiers could not stop foreigners from attacking Tianjin and fell!" Ah! Cixi was so scared that she sat in her seat again. This was terrible, even Tianjin City was lost!
Chapter six hundred and thirty-seven Never stand by.
Yuan Shikai
Governor’s office of Guangdong and Guangxi in Guangzhou
Yuan Shikai sat in the living room surrounded by his cronies, and Tan Feng also won.
Yuan Shikai shook his hands and reported that he laughed. "Look at Beijing. Those idiots dare to declare war on the eleven countries."
Liang Shiyi asked, "What does the imperial court say to comfort Shuai?"
Yuan Shikai sneer at a way "how do you say? Now the allied forces of various countries have not only captured Dagukou, but also taken Tianjin. Now Lafayette has been a little panicked and wants to transfer our provincial governors to Beijing. The joke is that a country, even if the country’s material resources are transferred to the country’s’ elite’ soldiers, we don’t have the slightest chance of winning. This county king is really out of his mind and dares to fool Lafayette into declaring war on the unification of the powers. Isn’t this a death wish? "
Liang Shiyi frowned and said, "Comfort Shuai, if we don’t send troops at this time, it will make heaven and man laugh. After all, if the court is in trouble, what will the people think of us?"
Yuan Shikai replied, "can we not be laughed at even if it is a small force?" Now if we rush to the front in a hurry, first of all, we will be the first to become cannon fodder of great powers! You won’t be able to stop the armies of the great powers with tens of thousands of new troops. This is unrealistic. What we can do now is to maintain our strength. No matter the final outcome, such as the fact that the great powers can’t annex the whole of China, it is impossible for a country to have our life if we don’t die! "
Liang Shiyi sighed. It’s true. Just relying on Yuan Shikai’s tens of thousands of people, it’s not somebody else’s opponent
Yuan Shikai said, "Fortunately, I have already informed Huafu and others in advance that the new military headquarters in several towns will be evacuated to Henan and Shandong. If we really confront it, our field will be shattered."
Liang Shiyi asked, "Wei Shuai, what do you think we should do to deal with the situation before us?"? After all, the will of the court has come. If we don’t be diligent, it will be an inverse minister. This is … "
Yuan Shikai sneered, "We can’t decide for ourselves that we have to involve others in this matter. Only I, Yuan Shikai, can’t stop it. If the court hears about this festival, we will be in danger. So I decided to invite Liu Kunyi, governor of Liangjiang River, Zhang Dong, Xing Sun and fat old nave to meet in the sea to discuss this matter. This blame will be borne by everyone. Anyway, I can’t bear it myself."
Wang Shizhen asked, "Don’t they want to be loyal to the North?"
Yuan Shikai laughed. "Why don’t you think these old guys will throw straws against the wind? It’s hard for everyone to get to their present position. It’s such a situation that whoever goes to Beijing and dies is obviously confused by Galeries Lafayette. We can see you and Liu Kunyi. Will they see it? "
陈美沉思了一说道“大帅我今天刚刚接到消息说是朝廷起复李鸿章旨意已经到了合‘肥’但是李鸿章竟然直接拒绝了朝廷旨意推脱年老多病法北”
袁世凯答道“年老多病？这是老中堂不愿意现‘露’面刚才不是说了吗现谁去谁死整个中国没有一支力量能够抗衡得了列强进攻！老中堂这是等机会啊等待一切尘埃落定时候再去出面收拾残局毕竟整个大清朝洋还没有能够出右者既便是我包括那个张坚都要承认不如这个狡猾老狐狸啊”
一旁谭峰看着侃侃而谈袁世凯不有嘴角带出一丝笑里面夹杂着一丝不屑
恰好王士珍抬起头看得真真切切不由得说道“剑山贤弟你笑什么？难道我们说有好笑处？”
袁世凯梁士诒一愣看向了谭峰谭峰心中一惊连忙说道“慰帅诸位适才听众位讲起目前中国政局一事听得入‘迷’不知不觉带出一丝笑呵呵没有什么他意思”
袁世凯笑道“剑山老弟座都是咱们自己人你也不要客气刚才你也听了我们聊得说说你意见吧你可是这里高才呵呵……”
谭峰也不客气说道“既然如此谭峰也就不客气了说说自己心里一些浅见”
Yuan Shikai nodded and Tan Feng said, "It’s a good idea to unite with other governors to advance and retreat, but it’s a good idea to comfort Shuai. You just said that there is no power in China to compete with the allied powers."
Yuan Shikai and others looked at Tan Feng silently and didn’t know what Tan Feng meant.
Tan Feng went on to say, "Comfort and handsome men, I think China definitely has another force to counter the invasion of foreign powers, and he will never sit idly by and watch. He is my old instructor Zhang Jian!"
Yuan Shikai asked in a surprised heart, "Jianshan bro, don’t you think that just relying on this corner of the northeast can really compete with the powers of a dozen countries?" He really won’t sit idly by? " Tan Feng smiled and said, "Comfort Shuai, although I have left the Republic of China and come to Guangdong, if anyone in this world knows Zhang Yi best, I am definitely the first choice! He’s resourceful and changeable, and his chest is vast and covers the whole world, but his biggest feature is that he can’t hide the barbarian China from running wild! No matter who, no matter which country dares to send troops to commit crimes, he will definitely send troops. He said at most that those who commit crimes against Heaven will be punished far away! " Yuan Shikai’s face was dignified and asked, "Jianshan bro, I also know that the principle of being soft and rigid outside the firm is very strong, but this time we are facing not just one powerful country but all the powerful countries in the world!" Is he really sure that he can repel all powerful enemies? "
Chapter six hundred and thirty The arrival of Xu Shichang
Tan Feng responded with a cool smile, "When Wei Shuai fought in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, did you recognize that only Nie Gongting’s ten thousand troops could defeat tens of thousands of troops every day? The year before last, did you think that you could defeat two hundred thousand Japanese-Russian allied forces just by relying on a small army of ten thousand people? Don’t say it’s impossible. What happened to Zhang Yishen is possible. At least I knew before the accident that he was ready for this war. Now there is an army of 300,000 people in Mongolia and ancient China. Now the navy has begun to take shape, and he still has this secret weapon in his hand. Although I don’t know what it is, I’m sure he is a successful man forever! "
Yuan Shikai nodded and said, "Today, Zhang Jian is really a strong soldier, and Ma Zhuang is afraid that whether it is Russia or Japan, it can be played by China alone to sign the city alliance history, and Zhang Jian can no longer reproduce it. It is not the kui that he is the first hero in China in this era! I still don’t think much of him just by relying on his 300 thousand army. Don’t forget that he is facing not only Russia, but also England, France, Germany and the United States, other European powers! It is possible for these countries to organize hundreds of thousands or millions of troops! "
Tan Feng said with a smile, "You’re right. If these countries are really determined to destroy Chinese at all costs, even Zhang Yi has 300,000 heroes. Don’t say it’s Zhang Yi, the Republic of China. Even English and France dare not say that they dare to compete with all the great powers in the world! But it is impossible for them to cooperate with Qi Xin. At least England and Germany will compete for the position of the world’s number one power. France and Germany are even more feuds. The United States has always pursued a neutral policy. They don’t like war. Do you think they can be United? "
Yuan Shikai stunned for a few seconds and suddenly burst out laughing and patted Tan Feng on the shoulder and said, "Jianshan bro, what you said is my bliss. Haha, it really is a big talent."
Tan Feng hurriedly polite way "comfort handsome you flatter Tan Feng where dare when?"
Yuan Shikai went on to say, "Now, the situation in China is very prosperous. It is only a matter of time before the Qing army in Gyeonggi can absolutely resist the attack of the allied forces and attack Beijing. This big war is afraid that the situation in the country will be even more chaotic. What should we do next?"
Liang Shiyi meditated quietly for a while and said, "Comfort Shuai, although our strength is not weak now, Guangdong, Guangxi and Zhili are not bordered, and Shandong and Henan provinces are not completely in control. Our foundation is not solid in our hands. If there is a mutation, we are afraid that we will give up all our efforts before the meeting."
Yuan Shikai nodded and said, "It was Zhu Yuanzhang’s way to be king after accumulating grain. What about you others?"
Wang Shizhen replied, "Comfort Shuai is now the strongest in the whole of China, and it’s the south and the north. Comfort Shuai is in the south, and you have Zhang Jian in the north. We might as well take advantage of the fact that Zhang Jian’s powers are at their worst to attack the northeast and defeat Zhang Jian in one fell swoop. China will definitely fall into the hands of Comfort Shuai. People like Li Hongzhang and Zhang’ Cave’ are over 70 years old and no longer brave!"
Yuan Shikai’s face "color" changed and he said angrily, "Scholars and scholars have to talk nonsense" chaos ".Now the court has not fallen yet. Are we still ministers of the Qing Dynasty who humiliate me and die white? What do you mean, it’s me and Zhang Jian? Zhang’ dong’ Guangdong and Guangxi have worked hard with Huguang for more than ten years and have a solid foundation; Li Hongzhang has been in charge of Beiyang for 20 years, and he can gather 100 thousand people in a blink of an eye. Are you old guys all eating for nothing? You are far from it! "
Wang Shizhen’s face turned red and said, "It’s comforting that Shuai is wrong."
Yuan Shikai said with a sigh, "Shi Zhen came out of Tianjin armament school, and I am most optimistic about this batch of manpower. Huafu and others have their own shortcomings. My mind is that you are still too young. You still can’t see through many things. Follow Brother Shichang and them to learn. These people are full of knowledge. China is the most ugly thing …"
Yuan Shikai looked at Tan Feng and said, "Do you have a good opinion, Jianshan bro?"
Tan Feng said with a wry smile, "Comfort you, he respects me, and said that I can make some suggestions on marching and fighting. If it comes to political matters, will you and I be better than Brother Shizhen? I am younger than him, and I am far from it? "
Just at this time, a laugh sounded outside the’ door’. "Hey, today is a lively and comforting pavilion, and you are all hired."
Yuan Shikai looked up and saw a middle-aged man swaggering in. When Yuan Shikai saw this man, he cried and smiled. "Chrysanthemum people haha, you are finally back. I am looking forward to your coming back."
Bearer is Xu Shichang, the first think tank of Yuan Shikai.
Some time ago, Xu Shichang was released by Yuan Shikai to Europe to inspect military and economic negotiations, purchase ordnance and other matters. It was four months when Yuan Shikai was still in Tianjin. By the time he returned to China after his business trip in Xu Shichang, Yuan Shikai had been in Guangdong and Guangxi for more than two months.
Yuan Shikai grabbed Xu Shichang’s hand and smiled. "Ju Ren, it’s only been half a year since you went here. I feel uncomfortable doing anything without you. Come and introduce you first. This is the new Tan Feng Tan Jianshan Jianshan bro, and this is my little Zhuge Xu Shichang Ju Ren bro!"
Xu Shichang laughed. "Brother Jianshan, although you and I met for the first time, your name has long since worn out my ears. Zhang Jian has four hands and donkey kong is a strong one. Welcome Brother Jianshan." Tan Feng hurriedly smiled. "Brother Chrysanthemum laughed at my younger brother. I came here because I was comforted by the hardship. I have also heard a lot about Brother Chrysanthemum. After his name, I hope you will give me your advice!" Yuan Shikai laughed. "You’re welcome to Jianshan, Juren. I’m in the middle of a difficult time. You’re finally back. If you don’t come back, I’ll send you a telegram to urge you."
Chapter six hundred and thirty-nine Hold the day to the governors
Xu Shichang said with a smile, "Brother Weiting, I know that the situation in our country has reached an unmanageable stage, right?"
Yuan Shikai laughed. "Brother Ju, the situation in our country is inevitable now, and you know it well. Do you think we should develop if we take over?"
Xu Shichang replied, "It’s time for you to talk about this, right? I just returned to China. Although I know something about the situation in China, I still want to hear your opinions. I’ll talk about it later and visit more recent chapters."
Yuan Shikai smiled and recounted the conversation just now to Xu Shichang and asked, "Brother Ju, this is the situation now. I wonder if you have any ideas to teach me?"
Xu Shichang mused briefly and said, "First of all, the imperial court must have been defeated and lost a good word. The two palaces will abandon the city and run away like the second time, fearing that they may not even have sex to escape. Just now, Jianshan Xiandi said that Zhang Jian would definitely send troops. I agree with Jianshan Xiandi’s statement, but sending troops is a problem, at least not now. Even after the dust settles, Zhang Jian will come out to clean up the mess, which doomed the imperial court to be devastated by the allied powers!"
Xu Shichang paused a little and then said, "Second, the current situation in China is not very clear. Although the imperial court has lost popularity, it has not reached the end of its tether. The people will still support the imperial court and it will still be a powerful force. At least on the surface, the imperial court will still represent China; Although Zhang Jian in Northeast China stood on his own feet in the Republic of China, don’t forget his slogan of founding the country, expelling the Tatars and rejuvenating China. His ideal is to unify China in a new world. According to the strength of the Republic of China today, Zhang Jian in China is afraid that it will be the most powerful force in the future. Third, after this war, I am afraid that the government’s control over local areas will become weaker, and the situation of local governors’ autonomy will be highlighted. Among all governors, Liu Kunyi, Zhang’ Dong and others are more prestigious and far-reaching, and they will form their own forces to occupy one side; Fourth, that’s to comfort you. Now you run Zhili first, and now you have two towns in Guangdong, Guangxi and Beiyang, all of which are your confidants. You will definitely be a decisive force in the future! "
They all nodded. Xu Shichang’s thinking was too clear. After a few words, he analyzed the situation of the country. He was the first think tank of Yuan Shikai.
Xu Shichang went on to say, "Third, you have neglected a new force!"
Yuan Shikai was surprised and asked, "New power?"
Xu Shichang nodded and replied, "Yes, it is the new force. This force may be the weakest among them, but its potential is very strong. This is the Southern Overseas Revolutionary Party!"
"Revolutionary Party?"
Everyone was shocked. This revolutionary party wanted money, guns, no guns, no territory, and they were able to influence the development of China.
Xu Shichang definitely said, "You guys saw the Japanese newspaper on my way home. Now the revolutionary party has United them. Hong Kong has formally merged with the Chinese Revolutionary League. All the southern provinces and European and American countries have set up branches. They have the financial support of overseas Chinese and many overseas students. The strength of joining the UK is definitely not to be underestimated. Sun Yat-sen’s prestige is outstanding. Huang Xing, Tao Chengzhang and others have outstanding abilities. Sooner or later, they will dig out the wind and waves in China!"
Yuan Shikai sighed, "Brother Ju, what should we do if you pick him up?"
Xu Shichang replied, "First of all, in the future, the Qing court will be even less powerful. Besides the orthodox name, it is afraid of being more cowardly. His strength is worthless; Second, provincial governors, whether Li Hongzhang, Zhang Dong and Liu Kunyi, are all over 70 years old, and this world horse will not belong to them. In the next five to ten years, they will not be alive, which means that the governor’s limited influence will not become a climate. Third, Zhang Jian wants to "survive" the invasion crisis of foreign powers, and his prestige in force will be further strengthened. He is afraid that the country will be able to match his power, even if he comforts Brother Ting, you are far behind! The situation of the governors of the Fourth Revolutionary Party is just the opposite. They have great potential, but in reality, their organizations are still too’ mixed’ and’ chaotic’ without force. When they rely on the future, they will control the revolutionary public opinion at most. He is not worth it! "
Tan Fengjing listened to Xu Shichang’s words, and there was a churning in my heart. Xu Shichang actually watched the country’s situation’ hole’. This vision is not as good as that of Tang Shaoyi!
Xu Shichang laughed. "Brother Weiting, you should be clear about the future development, right?"
Yuan Shikai nodded and said, "Brother Ju, when I was still in Li Zhongtang’s life, Li Zhongtang once said that in the future, China would master three people. The first one was me, the second one was working hard overseas to cultivate Sun Yat-sen, and the third one was Zhang Jian. Now it seems that Li Zhongtang’s prediction is too accurate. Alas … "
Yuan Shikai sighed and shook his head.
Xu Shichang also shook his head. "It seems that I am still not as good as Li Zhongtang. He was able to predict the situation in China years ago. I am still far from it."
Yuan Shikai said, "Brother Ju, what should I do in this catastrophe?"
Xu Shichang replied, "I have finished your analysis of the provincial governors, including Li Hongzhang, who is now idle. They all belonged to them yesterday. History has passed and the revolutionary party is still weak. It will take years to accumulate if you want to threaten you. Your real opponent is Zhang Jian, the old company of Jianshan. Compared with him, Brother Comfort Pavilion, your foundation is still too weak. "
Yuan Shikai’s eyes flashed with a "fine" light and said, "Brother Ju, how can I narrow our distance?"
Xu Shichang sink a way "the best way is to thank the emperor!"
"Holding the sky to make the princes?" They all shook and looked at Xu Shichang Xu Shichang slowly with a face of shock. "It’s too hard for you to compete with Zhang Jian. He now has three hundred thousand soldiers in his hand. This is not what kind of governor can have power. Even Zhang Jian said that he now rose up and swallowed up the shame of the daily newspaper. I will absolutely believe it! It’s only possible to compete with him if he gathers provincial governors with the help of the court’s righteousness! "
Chapter six hundred and forty Meeting at sea
