Chapter 152: None of them are good people
87_87379 "The country is weak and the people's hearts are difficult to use, but it is the truth!"
Second Master Li, what do you say about the Qing Dynasty's way to enrich the country and strengthen the people?
The year before last, Kang Liang made a change, and the old man wanted to help out, but unfortunately...... How......
The old man had no choice but to avoid overseas and go far away, and I see that there are only a few kinds of foreign powerful political systems, and Tsarist Russia is not far behind our country, so why can't I succeed in the Qing Dynasty? ”
Negotiation of peace and war, it doesn't matter to Li Hongzhang, the matter of peace negotiation is nothing more than the reparation of land cession, the result of peace negotiation depends on the war situation, the battle situation in Jingu is good, although the peace negotiation is difficult, but the outcome has reached the top, as General Li Ershen said, only compensation is a foregone conclusion, as for the amount of compensation, it still depends on the eyes of others.
Victory and defeat have to negotiate peace, this is what Li Hongzhang cares about, needless to say the defeated treaty, when Zhennanguan was victorious, Feng Zicai defeated the French, not the same signed the Sino-French Tianjin New Treaty, defeated the peace treaty, won the peace treaty, this time the battle of Jingu, between victory and defeat, or peace treaty, the bad thing in this, Li Ershen will say to the point, the country is weak, and the people's hearts are difficult to use.
Li Hongzhang has been in power for 30 years, and he also wants to be famous in history, but he has signed a lot of peace treaties that have been stinking for thousands of years over the years.
"Huh...... Let's get down to business, get down to business! Where did you just go? It's about warships, right?
In this private business, Lord Belle still has some face in the embassy area, and it just so happens that Lord Belle has a good house near the embassy area. With the secret agent of the British, Li Zhongtang might as well choose there! ”
What does Li Hongzhang want to ask? Why? Li Dacheng can't talk about it, how to say it? said that the Great Qing Dynasty is rotten to the bones, and it must be dead? That's not the truth!
Li Dacheng doesn't care who is in charge of the house. The pinnacle of power is not a wonderful thing, compared to those things, he is more willing to hunt with the devils of the seas in the major battlefields, and smell the fragrance of flesh and blood after the war, this is what a man should do.
Heart complex, complex, Li Dacheng also has. It is nothing more than the dignity and status of the people, if this Qing Dynasty can do it, Li Dacheng may not be able to support the Qing Dynasty, but unfortunately they can't do it, unless they kill all those clans in power and the ministers under them. Have these people killed them all? No! So he could only watch the Qing court die.
Li Hongzhang's question can't be answered, this old man can be regarded as a die-hard supporter of the Qing court, he is over seventy, there is no need to play the work of licking blood with a knife, and sometimes, he can't be honest with Li Hongzhang, for example, now.
"Second Master Li still has some scruples!
In addition to Kang Liang's method, there is also an afterlife in the south. I told the old man a more outrageous way, and the old man had contact with the people who came after him before he came.
Britain and Japan also wanted to support the independence of the south, and the old man had contact with them during this time.
Second Master Li. What do you think of these approaches? ”
Li Hongzhang Li Zhongtang has a mouthful of Li Erye, a mouthful of you, this old man is not simple, there are a few times Li Dacheng is a little nervous, I want to talk to him, but can I talk? I'm afraid I can't. If you talk about it, you're going to get into trouble for Gui Shun.
"Huh...... The methods are all good methods, but the people's hearts are not good. This person's heart is not good, and everything is difficult to achieve, so many people have become clowns. Do everything you can, and the more you do it, the harder it will be!
Nakado-sama, let's put it that way! We don't care who calls the shots.
But!
Who the wants to tear the earth and seal the king, Lao Tzu will not ignore it, Jinmen died only four or five hundred thousand people in the first battle, if anyone dares to do something to tear the earth and seal the king, provoke Lao Tzu to make a move, even if it is four million or forty million people who support him to tear the earth and seal the king, Lao Tzu will let them die and be injured.
The land of China, inherited for more than 3,000 years, can only be big but not small, and it is not hesitant to kill many people for this! For this reason, the nation can be exterminated and the country can be destroyed! That's fundamental! ”
Speaking of bones, Li Dacheng is still a professional soldier, and he has deep paranoia about the country, so he can do whatever it takes, or he can do anything, although this statement seems to be off-topic, but it can be regarded as an answer to Li Hongzhang's question.
"Hmm...... That's a brilliant statement!
Not bad! Not bad!
is worthy of being Li Ershen's general, he can see things clearly and clearly!
Tsarist Russia invaded the three eastern provinces this time, but I am afraid that I will not leave if I come, what does Li Erye say? ”
Listening to Li Hongzhang's words, Li Dacheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, this old thing is not a good person, thinking of fighting another battle of Jingu in the three eastern provinces, this thing is not impossible, but the national strength of the Qing Dynasty is not successful, fighting a vicious war across the three provinces or even more regions, Zhenwei Army has this ability, but the Qing Dynasty does not have the financial and material resources.
If you really fight this battle, you will still lose the situation, this thing is a good idea, but unfortunately there are no conditions for war!
"Do what you have to do, there is a court for everything!"
After giving Li Hongzhang a not very sure reply, Li Dacheng changed his posture again, looking at the ferocity of the second master, and the bow of Gui Shun's eyebrows next to him was also jumping vigorously, this master, your blood is flowing on the ground, can't you stop it?
"Second child, you hurt ......"
"Out of the way!"
"Everything has a court, and Second Master Li plans to sit and watch the three eastern provinces change hands?"
Li Hongzhang also wanted to see how ruthless General Li Ershen was, ignoring the blood droplets that fell from the official hat chair, he slapped Li Dacheng back with what Li Dacheng had just said.
"Changing hands? Whose hands is it easy to reach?
It is said that bandits are rampant in the three eastern provinces, and the Zhenwei army has more than 300,000 people, and the imperial court cannot support them. ”
The Qing court could not support the war, and the Zhenwei army was not unable to fight, turning the troops into bandits, fighting while grabbing, as long as the arms supply was sufficient, how could it not fight?
The three eastern provinces are a land of wealth, wood, minerals, and crops are all profitable trades, and border bandits are not a business, but they can also make a fortune.
The people of the Qing Dynasty were poor, and they just tried some crooked ways to make money in the three eastern provinces, and there was not much difference between professional bandits and professional soldiers. It's just that the name is different, to put it bluntly, what you do is a murderous business, where does the blood of a country come from, and it is killed!
Killing one's own people is not bloody and fierce, killing foreigners is counted. Turning the Zhenwei army into border bandits, this matter has long been in Li Dacheng's plan, and now it is almost time, the first one to be unlucky is the old Maozi of Tsarist Russia, thousands of kilometers of border, Li Dacheng wants to see. How they come to defend.
"I'm afraid there is something wrong with this matter, but I'm afraid that the tail will not fall off!"
The plan is a good plan, but unfortunately it is not in line with Li Hongzhang's starting point, turning the Zhenwei army into bandits, this variable is too big. Li Hongzhang was reluctant to support it.
"Lose the, and you're afraid that the tail of a fart won't fall off?
Can the Bureau handle military matters? ”
Zhenwei army turns the army into bandits, simple! An order goes down, and it is good to be stationed separately in regiments, battalions, and companies, and it is good to loot money and food as a problem, but ammunition is a big problem, and if there is no ammunition, it is necessary to rob the regular army and border guards of Tsarist Russia by playing with knives. That's a real joke.
Military funds are not available to anyone, and it is just a joke that domestic purchases do not make external purchases. A few hundred guns and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition may be fine, but with tens of thousands of guns, millions of bullets, shells, and orders of such scale as artillery and machine guns, which country's arsenal dares to sell them to private individuals casually?
An arms purchase order of a similar size to the refitting of a ** team is not an intergovernmental transaction and is not very feasible. In the three eastern provinces, it built its own arsenal and made its own guns and ammunition. It's not impossible, but there must be a time period. At least for three or five years, the Zhenwei Army will not have this ability.
"It's not impossible! Missing a reason! ”
Now Li Hongzhang also regrets a little more and asks, can he be good if he gets involved in this matter?
"From the head? Nakado-sama wouldn't be honest when he said that.
The imperial court does not participate in the war against Russia, so it can naturally push 625, Tsarist Russia and the bandits of the three eastern provinces clashed, as a landlord, how could the imperial court have to lend a helping hand to neighboring countries and help suppress bandits, this is not the beginning?
Even if the imperial court does not lend a helping hand, it should enrich the army of the three eastern provinces to defend against bandits attacking cities everywhere!
Presumably the British will support us in this matter, and little Japan will also support us, as for Tsarist Russia, there are too many people in this world who are kind enough to be donkeys' livers and lungs! ”
There are some things that should not be said today, let alone those words just now, but Lao Li on the other side has extraordinary skills, not only suppressed Gui Shun, but also suppressed Li Dacheng, and some words were said inadvertently.
I'm still bleeding on my side! Plainly talking nonsense to Lao Li is a waste of life, many things, just do it, say it, it's not good!
"Understood, Lord Belle, will this Zhenwei army be deployed in the future?"
Seeing that Li Dacheng's eyes were a little strange, Li Hongzhang threw out the topic, this is the purpose of his coming today, the battle of Jingu is over, such a big force as the Zhenwei Army, it can't stay in Beijing and Tianjin all the time, and the Zhenwei Army is stationed in the army, which is where the interests of many people lie.
"Oh...... In this matter, Lord Belle said, Manmeng Yili is the main, Sichuan Yungui is secondary, I don't know what the Lord Zhongtang has to say? ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Dacheng knew that what he just said was all nonsense, the garrison of the Zhenwei Army was what Lao Li was concerned about, and the soldiers were the confidence, as long as the place where the Zhenwei Army was stationed was within the reach of Guishun's forces, the peace talks had not yet come to fruition, and many of the ministers of the Qing Dynasty were planning for themselves.
How to garrison the Zhenwei army, it is also quite exquisite, Liangjiang, Huguang, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, is the heartland of the Han Xinjiang ministers, Guishun horizontal insertion means war.
is still the same sentence, the old lady's ascension is the result of the balance of all parties, once it is broken, the one who intervenes will inevitably become a victim.
Different from the views of Li Hongzhang and others, Li Dacheng's vision is on those remote places in their opinion, Mongolia has a lot of coal and iron, the three eastern provinces have everything, and the surrounding areas of Ili are not bad, and these places are vast and sparsely populated, Shandong, Henan, Zhili and the southern provinces, in terms of today's land productivity, are somewhat overpopulated.
In the future wars, there are mainly two things to fight, one is the population, the other is the industry, and if you gain a foothold in these places in advance, you will have an innate advantage, and the war is only secondary, and more importantly, for a long time to come, the return on investment in industry is extremely rich, and these places are the land of financial resources.
"Lord Belle is clever in his methods! The matter of the secret agreement with the British, the old man planned, and when the plan was ready, he would come to disturb Lord Baylor and the second master, and he said goodbye! ”
Watching Gui Shun send Lao Li out of the garden, Li Dacheng's face was not very good-looking, he underestimated Lao Li, this person is probably already guarding against him, but with the Zhenwei army, Lao Li is also unable to support himself, and his defense should not be too troublesome.
"Second brother, what is this Li Hongzhang talking about?"
What Li Dacheng and Li Hongzhang said between them, in the front, Gui Shun could still understand it, but in the back, what he said was a little unclear, and sent Li Hongzhang away, Gui Shun hurriedly ran back and asked what the result of the conversation between the two was.
"He's not a good person!
He is here to draw territory with us, Liangjiang, Huguang, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Liangguang and even Fujian and Jiangxi, we can't interfere, if we interfere, they will fight with us.
In the first battle of Jingu, although we have made outstanding achievements, we also have a lot of problems on our bodies, and you will have to hide in the future.
Remember! As long as it's not Zhenweijun's business, the sky is falling, it's not our business, you are in Beijing, just be responsible for eating, drinking and having fun, and let them eat dogs for the rest! ”
The first battle of Jingu is a good thing for Gui Shun, and it is not a good thing, in the imperial court, the suspicion of the old ladies is very terrible, so that the Zhenwei army is based on Manmeng, this is also to let Gui Shun show loyalty to the old ladies, and many things in the future are not as smooth as when they were in Jinmen.
"Good! I know, you can quickly let Lang Zhong take a look, this blood is a lot. ”
"Know! You go to find a few old people from the Zongren Mansion today, and I have something to ask. ”
Shedding a little blood is nothing, now, those who have pink eye are terrible, the old ladies don't return to Beijing for a day, Gui Shun's position is not enough, and many things still have to be planned in advance.
After the battle was over, time was still in a hurry, but without waiting for Li Dacheng to think about anything, the shouting of the girl of the Sun family disturbed his thoughts, there were too many wounds on his body, it was okay not to move, and many wounds that were healing would collapse when he moved, and it would naturally not look good.
Watching a few Lang Zhong cut off their blood-stained silk shirts and smeared medicine on the red wounds, Li Dacheng had an idea here, it is impossible for Gui Shun and Li Hongzhang to converge, even if the two have the same demands and interests, it is impossible, there is an old lady above! The convergence of the two is exactly what the old ladies are afraid of, isn't today's incident a good opportunity for Gui Shun and Li Hongzhang to form a feud? (To be continued).
