After the war, thousands of prisoners need to be selected one by one, the most heinous ones will kill the civilians, the middle ones will be chopped off to beat the enemy's morale, even those auxiliaries who are not guilty of doing logistics will have to work hard for a period of time, and they can only be released after brainwashing, in short, they can't make the enemy so comfortable.

Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty has torn its face and opened up with real knives and guns, then the new army will not show mercy, Xiao Letian's pencil walked through the map of Tanggu, "from south to north, Xiaozhan Town, Gegu, and Military Grain City...... Further north to the camp south of the Ning River, all of which must be drawn as the sphere of influence of our new army......"

"This county is the concession that my Xiao Lotian cut from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, they can have a concession in Britain and France, why can't I Xiao Lotian have it?"

"Send troops up, and in the name of clearing out the bandits and routs, take over the local security, and build checkpoints for me according to the line I drew on the map...... Regardless of the road or the river, build me a permanent checkpoint and send troops to guard ......"

"Don't we have the green battalion soldiers of the uprising, train them well for a few months, and they will be the defenders of Tanggu in the future......"

"The Wave Breaker plus two clippers, let me rush up along the Haihe River, let the people of Tianjin Wei see our majestic military might, since the Manchu Qing want to play big, then let's play bigger......"

"What about those foreign engineers, what about the volunteers who volunteered to join our army, and armed them to attack the Tianjin Guard...... Let them raise the banner of compensation, and say that Mellor's army has robbed them of their property, and they want to protest to the Qing government......"

Xiao Letian kept giving orders, and the officers under him began to shorthand in the notebook, and a reasonable person in charge was arranged for each task, and the herald at the door ran out every two or three minutes, like a marquee.

"Prime Minister, is it okay to stimulate the Manchus in this way? Will they be forced to mobilize more troops to encircle and suppress them? Even if there is no army, what about the third master of Qing in the capital? Madame is also in Jingshan......" Someone asked at the meeting.

Xiao Lotian sneered and said, "I don't need to explain this, Mr. Pierre has already judged......" After speaking, Xiao Lotian stretched his hand to Pierre, meaning to let him say a few words.

Pierre knew English and German, both of which were understood by Xiao Lotian's officers, so there was no problem with communication between Pierre and the Forces nouvelles.

"For the Manchus, my analysis results are still relatively optimistic. First of all, a court that only dared to act after receiving the news of Xiao Letian's death, how much courage do you think they still have? Now that Xiao Letian has returned to China alive, do they still dare to go to war?"

"Secondly, our Prime Minister has the first modern newspaper of the Qing Dynasty in his hands, which is a more powerful tool of public opinion than those fluent and sharp mouths, he can easily tear apart the lies of the Manchu Dynasty, do you think he is not afraid?"

"One last point...... Although the prime minister did not give me much information, with the limited information in front of me, I can be sure that the Manchu regime is not monolithic, and there must be more factions in it than I thought. ”

Molière shrugged his shoulders, "I don't believe it, our Prime Minister will not have an arrangement......?

At this moment, suddenly a loud report came from outside the door...... Wang Huaiyuan and Chun Thirteen Niang begged to see the prime minister..."

"Come in...... You two can be regarded as coming back, everyone stands up, applauds and thanks Huaiyuan and Thirteen Niang for helping us keep our hometown..."Xiao Letian took the lead and stood up, and there was applause in the study.

Wang Huaiyuan and Chun Thirteen Niang were stunned as soon as they entered the house, how could they have thought that they would receive such courtesy, especially Thirteen Niang, the famous eldest sister in Sijiu City, actually turned red at that moment.

"Don't dare, don't dare...... His Majesty is already very ashamed that he did not defend the important land of the capital division..."The two hurriedly hugged their fists and apologized.

"What kind of is this? If you want to talk about responsibility, I Xiao Lotian believes that the first rule is not that I have to go to Europe, and the enemy will not take the opportunity to make trouble, come on, I will move chairs for the heroes......"

After speaking, Xiao Letian personally moved two chairs to his left and right, he grabbed Wang Huaiyuan with one hand, and grabbed Thirteen Niang with the other hand and stuffed them into the chair.

Glory, this is really the supreme glory, Xiao Letian as a traverser, some subconscious equal actions in his life can make his subordinates feel warm in their hearts.

Perhaps it is these small touches that make this group more and more cohesive.

"Prime Minister Qiyu, our intelligence network in Beijing City has indeed lost Yan zhòng, but fortunately, the losses are all the details of the third and fourth lines, and the real first and second line undercover agents are very well hidden, in general, as long as the situation eases, we can restore our intelligence network within three months......"

"The loss of the Jingshi is greater, but there is also good news, our local intelligence personnel have almost not been impacted, especially the fine work network in various prefectures and counties, you can buy peace with a few hundred taels of operation, this group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials dare to sell anything..."

This is the first time for Thirteen Niang to participate in such a high-level meeting, and it was a little unnatural to start talking, but under Xiao Letian's encouraging gaze, she quickly calmed down.

"How is the situation in Jingshan now?" Xiao Hexin asked with a gloomy face.

"It's weird, it's very weird, now Jingshan is completely deadlocked, and I don't know what this group of people are doing, every day is a wave in the morning, a wave in the afternoon, the offense and defense are like singing, I don't know what to say at all..."

In the mouth of Chun Shi Niang, a wonderful picture of Jingshan offensive and defensive battles slowly unfolded in front of everyone.

The offensive and defensive battle of Jingshan has lasted for half a month to this day, and Qing Sanye and the ancestors of the Forbidden City, including the guards of the pro-military camp, plus a group of dead soldiers under Ermao, there are enough 300 people to protect Jingshan like an iron bucket.

At the beginning, Cixi also expected that the crowd would be able to stew a spoonful, but before Ermao, he actually hid countless advanced weapons on Jingshan and at the bottom of Beihai Lake, especially the Spencer foreign gun, and now Xiao Letian has secretly invested 30% of the Spencer company, and he also wants to buy a rifle in the Qing Dynasty.

There are also countless types of grenades, and there is an ample supply of food, which makes the morale of the Jingshan guards not leak at all. In the first three days, Cixi really gave the death order, and the crowds of people attacking were wave after wave, and the area of Jingshan was not large, and it was already overcrowded with thousands of people at a time.

But Qing Sanye's counterattack was even more intense, with foreign guns firing volleys, grenades flying, and from time to time the ancestors also organized the green forest masters to have a defensive counterattack, and the attackers who hit were full of fart.

What frightened Cixi the most was that this Empress Dowager of the East Palace, who was two years younger than her, was so bold, whenever the battle was the most intense, this madwoman actually dared to show her face and personally stand on the top of the mountain to denounce the attacking soldiers, while she only had two iron shields by her side to protect her.

This sharp-toothed woman, who knew every officer who led the attack, was able to reprimand from the officer's ancestors to his son, and in his mouth the righteousness of the monarch and the minister had become a weapon sharper than a bullet, and there was no one who was called and scolded without a red face.

The righteousness of the monarch and the minister has been talked about for two hundred years, and the Manchurians care more about this, leading troops to encircle and suppress the Empress Dowager Dong, this kind of thing is okay to do secretly, and now it is done in broad daylight, and everyone has no confidence in their hearts.

"Cixi's strong attack lasted for three days, and then the intensity of the attack decreased, and the offensive and defensive sides seemed to have reached some tacit understanding, rushing once a day in the morning and once in the afternoon, putting a few rows of guns and retreating, as if going through the motions......

"And then ...... Those officers and soldiers of the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion who surrounded Jingshan actually began to accept bribes from us, and the news of Ermao could be transmitted from the fifth day...... We can even send in some food and medicine or something..."

Hearing this, Xiao Lotian slapped the table, "That's right...... That's right... Cixi can't guarantee a blitzkrieg, she won't be beheaded successfully, she will encounter such a problem, I dare to believe that Zeng Guofan has more governors who have begun to put pressure on Cixi..."

"That's right, Cixi's strength is still very weak now, she can't control the whole country at all, everyone was stunned at the beginning of the coup, everyone was waiting and watching the wind and the left and right, but there was always a time when the local governor spoke, and at that time, the righteousness of the monarch and ministers was the last straw that crushed Cixi......"

"So I'm sure that Cixi will either negotiate now, or have a final killing move, and the chaos in Beijing is just around the corner..."

After listening to Xiao Letian's words, everyone sat down, "Prime Minister, you can give the order... How can the new army fight? As long as you give an order, we will capture the city of Beijing for you..."

Xiao Letian looked at the group of energetic officers and nodded, "It is not possible to simply use force, but it is also impossible not to use force, we must be prepared and let the Manchu Qing Dynasty invite us to Beijing City with eight sedan chairs, so that it can be called really majestic..."

In a word, all the people present were stunned, and the first one to speak was Molière, "Ji will be released...", hey? This big-nosed foreigner actually learned a few words of Chinese, and he can understand such a deep idiom.

Just when Xiao Lotian wanted to explain to everyone, suddenly there was a cry from the inner house, which was so loud that the people in the study in the front yard were startled, and before Xiao Lotian could ask, there was a burst of laughter and cheers from the cry.

"What is this for? It's all crazy, it's not ......" Just when Xiao Letian was puzzled, Fuhui's old housekeeper walked to the door of the study tremblingly, wanting to say that he didn't dare to live.

Sima Yun was a thoughtful person, and at a glance, he knew that the old housekeeper had something to say, and quickly got up and invited him in, "Prime Minister, is there something going on in the inner house......?"

The old housekeeper trembled and wanted to play thousands, but Sima Yun helped him, "Prime Minister, you have been in the meeting for half an hour, and the big kitchen has also prepared a reception banquet for the generals, do you think you should go to the inner house to eat, or use it with the generals?"

"In addition, Tanggu Tongzhi Lord Zhou has been waiting in the gatehouse for a long time, and the old slave wants to come and say goodbye, but when Lord Zhou heard that the master has a military meeting, he didn't dare to disturb, so he waited in the gatehouse?"

"And the inner house is crazy now, and the newsprint given by the master makes the girls cry and laugh for a while, and even the little ones don't work anymore...... I've been calling several times in a row, but I still can't stop watching, or you can take care of it..."
