Xianfeng's eyes were dull and erratic, and although his tongue was a little bigger when he spoke, these did not affect his sincerity. The flushed face also meant a little hot-blooded youth, he really sincerely wanted to talk to Guo Xing'a. But Guo Xing'a was like a clay statue, and he didn't react at all. Xianfeng appeared too suddenly, and the pace of the conversation between the two was too fast. With a few simple words of greeting, Xianfeng dried himself up a lot with a bowl of wine, and kept saying that he wanted to dig out his heart, how could Guo Xing'a keep up with such a rhythm.

"The Beijing division is in a hurry, and the imperial driving autumn Mulan, the nine gates of Gyeonggi are shaken, and the hearts of the army and the people in the world are all in chaos! The name of the Son of Heaven who abandoned the country, I also deserve it! Xianfeng ignored Guo Xing's surprise, and said to himself, and obviously really drank too much.

"It's all gone! The situation is already good! Guo Xing'a hypocritically comforted, waved his hand and asked Fuquan to send people to drive out all the idlers, lest they hear Xianfeng's words.

"The matter is over, it is you and the sixth child who have settled the matter, but the hurdle in my heart still can't be overcome! Infinite desolation! I am ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors, of the soldiers and civilians of Gyeonggi, and of my concubines, guards, and attendants. I threw the country and the people to the foreign devils, and I resigned from the temple and the palace, I am ashamed! Xianfeng actually fell on the table and cried.

"Imperial ......" Guo Xing'a stretched out his hand but stopped in mid-air, he couldn't take Xianfeng's words, and he couldn't persuade him.

Rong Lu and the others don't persuade them, they are all like zombies, standing against the wall. Looking at the nose, nose, mouth, and heart, the old monk is in a state of flux, and he is completely unaware of the affairs of the outside world.

"Oops! Let the past pass! Look forward to everything! Guo Xing'a also drank a large bowl of wine, sighed and persuaded. In fact, Xianfeng has no future, and he has less than half a year to live at most.

"You're a hero of the horse field, don't you look down on me?" Xianfeng asked Guo Xing'a very frustratedly, as if he already had an answer.

"You've tried and thought of a lot of things, and although there are a lot of imperfections, it's still good overall. Although you don't have any achievements to show your hands, at least you have laid the foundation for the future, such as Zeng Guofan, who fought against bandits in Jiangnan, Li Hongzhang in Shanghai, and the situation of exchanges with Yangyi. ”

Guoxing's words can be regarded as a compliment, or it can be regarded as a truth, the foundation of the "Tongguang Zhongxing" of the Qing Dynasty was actually laid in the last two years of Xianfeng. Of course, these foundations were not planned by Xianfeng, many of them were forced by the situation and forced by others. Xianfeng's experience is actually quite easy to say, it's just unlucky. Paying off the debts owed by his ancestors and paving the way for his children and grandchildren all fell on him alone, and Lao Tzu's sons didn't give him a hand.

"Your words are to the point!" Xianfeng had a smile on his face, and he was very pleased.

"The hardest days are over, and they will get better and better in the future!" Guo Xing'a was a little worried when he said this, from Xianfeng's point of view, Xianfeng's life was a complete tragedy. The most difficult days of the Qing Dynasty almost persuaded him to catch up, and the easy good days were coming, and Xianfeng was about to return to the west.

"The country can be restored, but the lost land is afraid that it will be difficult to recover!" Xianfeng was excited for a while, drank a few more glasses, but immediately fell back down.

"The Kowloon Division and Hong Kong are both leased to the British, and when the Qing Dynasty recovers, we will take it back! Even if it cannot be recovered for a while, the lease has its own term, and it will not be leased to the British at the end of the term! Guo Xing'a didn't care, because he knew that Hong Kong would have to be taken back sooner or later.

"The cloud is wrong! The land occupied by the British is just a small desert island. The one I suffer is the abominable Russians, who have invaded our Manchuria homeland for more than 5,000 miles. Although the bitter cold and barrenness outside the gate are even worse, after all, it is the land of my great Qing Dynasty. The ancestral mausoleum is located, and the loss of an inch of land makes me have no face to see my ancestors underground, not to mention the vast land of 5,000 miles. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, how can I lose 5,000 miles of land! "Xianfeng is in pain and has already started to pick his hair.

"It's hard to spit out what the polar bear eats, but it's not hopeless. At the time of the peace talks between Beijing and Shi, the Russian minister Ignatiev did not succeed, and in international law, it was still the territory of our Great Qing Dynasty, but now it is forcibly occupied by them. "When it comes to the Outer Northeast, Guo Xing'a also has a headache, and the polar bear's greed for territory is indeed difficult to deal with.

"Our place, they occupy it, how can we take it back! It is not theirs to occupy this place. I can't protect the land of my ancestors, and I won't be blind to death! Xianfeng opened his throat and howled.

"It's a nuisance!" Guo Xing'a dealt with it casually, but he had another plan in his heart. In the original history, the imperial court cut the land without much hesitation, but in fact, Xianfeng was so reluctant in his heart?

"I heard that when discussing the affairs of Russia, the sixth child was already in a mess, and it was you who gave him advice and allowed him to stabilize the situation, and the Russians did not slander us!" Xianfeng took Guo Xing'a's hand, and looked at Guo Xing'a's eyes, and some stars were already twinkling again.

"I have given some ideas to the sixth master, but they are all delaying strategies, and it is okay to stabilize for a while, but it cannot solve the fundamental problems of northern Xinjiang."

The issue of the Outer Northeast China should not only be resolved as soon as possible, but the key lies in the competition of the comprehensive national strength of the two countries. Now the national strength of the Qing Dynasty is not Lao Maozi's opponent at all, even if there are thousands of clever plans, it is still useless if the national strength is not good. If you want to recover the Outer Northeast, you must start from the root to improve the comprehensive national strength of the Qing Dynasty, and then open up the Northeast region, and the two-pronged approach is possible.

"It's good to be able to stabilize for a while! There is a good way to get around! "Xianfeng seems to be very concerned about the Northeast issue.

"Although Lao Maozi didn't take advantage of the Jingshi peace talks, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not continue to make trouble outside the customs. Russia does not have many troops stationed in northern Xinjiang, and it does not have the ability to fight with us, but it is still very possible to scare our Heiji garrison. At present, it is time to choose a good general to guard the northern frontier to ensure that there will be no more accidents. Wait until the day when the national strength of the Qing Dynasty recovers, and then slowly deal with Lao Maozi. "The issue of the Outer Northeast is very difficult, and Guo Xing'a doesn't have any reliable ideas for a while. Moreover, Guoxinga was not accustomed to using titles like Manchuria, but chose words such as "Northern Xinjiang" and "Guanwai".

"The word good general is easy to say, but there are a few veritable good generals in the world!" Xianfeng leaned on the table with a melancholy expression.

"This ......" Guo Xing'a can't say it a little, he has the impression that there are really few people who can be good generals in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, and he knows even less, so he can't get Zeng Guofan to the northeast!

"Heilongjiang General Tepuqin is still useful, but he is over sixty years old, and he is really old! Jilin General Jing Chun, the age is appropriate, but he is afraid that it is embarrassing! Is there any good candidate to recommend? A hint of clarity flashed in Xianfeng's drunken eyes.

"I can't say it well when I am selected, but I still say the important task of stabilizing northern Xinjiang. Since I entered the customs of the Qing Dynasty, the entire huge area outside the customs has been sealed with wicker edges, and the Mongols and Han people have been forbidden to invade the place where my ancestors have come to prosper, but it has also led to the sparse population outside the customs and a large area of vacant land. Although the Han and Mongols could not enter the border on a large scale, there were indeed many Koreans who secretly crossed the border and cultivated in our territory. It is precisely because of the sparse population outside the customs that our dynasty cannot support a large army outside the customs, and even if the imperial court sends troops to it, it will not be able to stay for a long time. When the Russians invaded our territory, our army could not levy and distribute people on the spot, nor could it collect grain and grass supplies on the spot, so we had to rely on the supply of the customs thousands of miles away. Before the battle began, our army lost half of the first. Therefore, in order to restore the lost territory outside the border, the first step is to resettle Shibian, and when the two sides of the Heilongjiang River are built into the north and the south of the Yangtze River, it is the time for our army to restore its homeland. Therefore, the generals in charge of northern Xinjiang must not only be able to lead troops to fight, but also have the ability to dispatch and assist in civil affairs. Goxinga began to seriously remember how to restore the Northeast.

"Well, what Yun Xian said is reasonable, Tepuqin and Jingchun also have an invitation to open the border ban and recruit people to reclaim the wasteland!" Xianfeng seemed to be sober.

"It's not enough to open one or two counties, Heiji should be opened in both places, and it is better to open even Mukden. Send people in, let the population of the land outside the gate flourish, and the place can be kept. Moreover, the development of these places can end the situation of the imperial court supporting the three places and relieve the financial tension of the imperial court! "Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, the finances of the areas under the jurisdiction of these generals have only input but no output, and the emperor can still get some tribute, but the household department can get nothing.

"Well, I'll think about it!" Xianfeng seems to have woken up, but he still didn't spit out about opening the wicker side, and he didn't dare to break the rules that his ancestors had adhered to for generations. The Northeast is the reserve of the flag people, which must be reserved for the flag people, although there have been times when the border ban has been relaxed in previous dynasties, but there is no precedent for the people to enter the Northeast in a large area.

"Only after the population is flourishing can we reorganize our arms for war. The old-fashioned swords, guns, swords, and halberds cannot be practiced, but they can be trained according to the model of the newly built Shenji Battalion or our Gu'an Army, and all three armies can practice firearms, so that they can have the ability to fight the Russians. Of course, Guo Xing'a will not just talk about his own troops, no matter how reluctant he is, he will have to bring the Shenji Battalion that the imperial court has just formed.

"Firearms are indeed the first priority in the future battle array!" Xianfeng still had some stupid thoughts of "caring about loyalty and bravery" in the past, but after being cleaned up by foreign devils, and even blocked at the door of the house by Guo Xing'a, he completely obeyed the firearms.

"Northern Xinjiang is too far away, and if it is supplied by Gyeonggi, it is too much. Therefore, all the utensils must be procured in Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Fengtian for three days, and to start industrial and mining in these three places, they only need to be prepared for war. And use the commercial port of Yingkou to trade with Yangyi and purchase new sharp weapons of Yangyi! Guo Xing'a suddenly felt that the Northeast was really a good place, no wonder Zhang Zuolin could become the first warlord in Beiyang.

"Northern Xinjiang is really a nightmare in my heart, and Yun Xian can relieve my worries!" Xianfeng held Guo Xing'a's hand tightly.

"Me?" Guo Xing'a didn't expect Xianfeng to want him to take over the Northeast.

"The position of General Heilongjiang, can Yun Xian be interested?" Xianfeng was afraid that Guo Xing'a would not agree, and the expression on his face explained that he could discuss it again.

Guo Xing'a really didn't know how to reply to Xianfeng, the feudal officials and his own base were Guo Xing's dreams, but whether the remote Heilongjiang was suitable or not, he couldn't eat it.
