827 Murder with a knife
"No matter what China will become in the future...... I'm afraid I won't see that day, you young people will have your own choice......" Zeng Guofan grabbed Xiao Letian's wrist, and his nails were about to pierce his flesh.
"It doesn't matter what kind of constitutional monarchy, what kind of republic, what kind of democracy you want to do in the future...... Even if you Xiao Letian want to be the emperor, I don't care about Zeng Guofan, but I have two conditions!"
"First, you can't get rid of this more than 10 million square kilometers of land for me, if you end up playing a remnant of the Song Dynasty's territory...... I'm going to take your life if I'm a ghost!"
"Second, you can't fight a civil war, at least you have to assure me that you don't have the idea of fighting a civil war...... Except for those traitors and traitors who must be killed, you must not use knives and guns against dissent!"
Xiao Lotian smiled bitterly and said, "Dashuai, don't you know my temper? I have been hiding in the Ryukyus to develop with peace of mind, and I don't dare to meddle in the entanglement of domestic interests, this is what I am afraid of...... The first one I can promise is what I want, but the second one ......"
Shaking his head, he pulled out his hand: "What kind of virtue is the Chinese, you know much better than me, infighting insiders!"
Zeng Guofan's tears were about to fall, he sighed and shouted, "Give me wine!" After a while, Ermao brought in a bottle of Western wine, and he didn't dare to let the handsome drink spirits early in the morning.
Taking a sip of the red wine syrup, Zeng Guofan's eyes were a little confused, as if he had fallen into a memory: "There is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, and there are dry bones in the wilderness...... I can't forget that scene in my life, the people were too bitter when the civil war started, do you know how many people died in Jiangnan in the past ten years of suppression of Changmao?"
"Actually, I know that your subordinates have gathered a group of remnants of the Taiping Army, and I already knew it...... But I don't care anymore, the first evil has been eliminated, the sword robbery has passed, leave them a way to live......"
"My ninth brother has been persuading me to take another step, but I know that our Zeng family has made too many killings, and even if we have the emperor's order, we have already ruined it......"
Xiao Letian originally didn't believe in this kind of fatalism, but he has already become a traverser, and he doesn't dare to be too arrogant about this kind of karmic reincarnation and all kinds of fatalism.
"Dashuai thinks too much, right? How can there be an emperor in the world who doesn't kill people, and that dynasty is not killed by a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?"
"Haha......" Zeng Guofan smiled bitterly, "It's different, in all dynasties, the founding emperors killed people, all of them stopped killing by killing, Ming Taizu killed the Yuan Dynasty, that's because the Han people really couldn't get by, they were about to be starved to death and bullied to death, at that time, he could bear the cause and effect of killing people, because countless Han people who cheered in unison helped him share the killing!"
"When Liu Bang founded the country, he also killed to stop killing, at the end of Qin, the world was in turmoil and thieves broke out, and the people were miserable, Liu Bang was able to kill to stop killing, and naturally killed people to gain popularity, and there were people all over the world to share the killing for him, and the same was true when the Tang Dynasty was founded, but it was the ......same for all prosperous dynasties."
"Forget it, don't talk about this, anyway, my Zeng Guofan's nickname was Zeng shaved his head, and I killed so many long hairs, and finally made the Han people hate me, and the Manchurians were also afraid of me, and I was not a human being inside and out......! Tell me about your plans and see if you and I coincide?"
Xiao Letian nodded, "The two requirements of the big handsome, in fact, are not impossible to do, but the difficulty is a bit high, let's talk about the first problem, that is, the existing territory of the Qing Dynasty, if you want to not lose anything or generally not lose, then you must firmly grasp the righteous name in the hands of the Manchurians!"
"Whether we like it or not, after all, the Manchus unite the Mongols, Tibetans, Hui and other ethnic groups, and they jointly serve the Manchus as the main and accept the rule of the Manchus, and it is precisely because of this that they want their land, so they can't let the Manchus' righteous name be lost......"
"But according to the current virtue of the Manchus, it is completely impossible to make this country good, didn't Cixi say, measure the material resources of China, and form a friendship with the country, in the end, the Manchus still don't regard us as a family!"
"Once there is a conflict, what this group of Tartars think about is to exchange the interests of the Han people for the peace of their family, in the final analysis, it is to betray the country, anyway, in their hearts, they never thought of ruling this land forever, and they sold it and went back to their gates!"
"Therefore, it is foreseeable that in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, the Manchu Qing clique will continue to sell the country for its own interests, of course, the main thing to sell is the interests of the Han people, in exchange for their rivers and mountains to continue their lives, just ......like blood transfusions."
Zeng Guofan was not angry, and he calmed down at this moment, "Ji will come out?"
Note: Look at the Great Qing Hidden Dragon, please search and read in the '17k novel network', this is the genuine address, nowhere else, please tell each other.
Ay...... Subscribe for ten yuan a day, and it's five or six yuan to Xinjing's hands, and Xinjing I send more red envelopes in the group every day than this, are you embarrassed to always watch pirated copies? A thousand words are three cents, and it's more than a dime a day, isn't everyone very positive in grabbing red envelopes?
In addition, I would like to say to some pirated readers, if you read a book on a pirated website, the pirated website will not be serialized, and you will scold the author? You still want to hack the author to death? Why do you have such a big face?
Don't even say anything, you don't know if you're watching pirated versions, you don't know if you spend money or not? Have you spent a thousand-word three-cent subscription? You haven't even spent a monthly subscription, and you keep saying that you just watch the genuine version, should I be anxious about your IQ? Or should I be anxious about your morality?
"Hehe......" Xiao Letian smiled sinisterly, "To deal with this kind of person, we Han people can't beat him, and we can't obey it, if you beat him too hard, he will betray the country, break up the country and give it to foreigners, and use the power of foreigners to fight with us......"
"But you can't follow them, because the final result of following them is also to cut meat with a slow knife, consuming national strength little by little, and finally giving us the last chance to become stronger...... I can tell Master Ming that the next twenty or thirty years will be the last chance for a weak country to jump on the train of a strong country, and if you take a slow step, you will be lost for a hundred years!"
Zeng Guofan nodded: "I believe in you, I have always believed in you, I have read the book you wrote no less than ten times, the more I read it, the more I read it, the more I am afraid! As you guessed, if the next 30 years is really an era of great changes in science and technology, then it will naturally be an era of great chaos in the world, and it is only right to take advantage of the chaos to ascend to power!"
"So......" Xiao Letian gritted his back molars and sneered, "So, we have to let them kill themselves by themselves, the Manchu reformists represented by Zaichun and the conservative faction they represent, there will definitely be a war in four years!"
"The moment when Emperor Tongzhi was in power, it was the time when the bayonets of their two factions were red...... We have to be mentally prepared from now on, I, Xiao Letian, have never been a butcher, and I have never thought of killing all the people!"
"However, we must remove this cancer from the Manchu people! Otherwise, the Manchu people will not be able to integrate into the Chinese nation, and they will not really become a part of China!"
Zeng Guofan was waiting for this sentence, and he asked nervously: "What about the Western powers? How can you guarantee that they will also support Your Majesty? As you said, is it in the interests of Westerners to have a strong Tongzhi Emperor?"
The corners of Xiao Letian's mouth were crooked, and he smiled evilly, "This matter is easy to do...... How about joining Aisin Jue Luo Jae-chun and marrying a European princess?"
"Ahh
