Cixi also wanted to ask this question, but she was afraid of "showing timidity", so she hesitated slightly, and was preempted by "Dongbianer", hehe, just right.

"After returning to the Empress Dowager, 'Nanyue' was a big country in the south of China during the Qin and Han dynasties, with a vast territory, including a large part of Guangdong and Guangxi, and a small part of Fujian, and the border stretched south to the Zhongqi place in present-day Vietnam."

Although Ci An was "stupid", he also understood: "Yo, it turns out that this is the case, and I really can't let him call this 'South Vietnam'." ”

Cixi also nodded: "Exactly, Jiaqing Ye is wise and has put an end to the encroachment of the Vietnamese." Well, Vietnam and France didn't sign that ...... anything."

"Back to the Queen Mother, it's the Treaty of Versailles."

"Well, the Treaty of Versailles. How about it, have the two sides fulfilled the contract? ”

Guan Zhuofan said: "The Queen Mother sees it clearly and understands the trick - the French are thick-skinned, and they want the Vietnamese to fulfill the contract, but the Vietnamese don't do it: I have a bunch of French people here to help fight the war, but I invited them all by myself, and the French court did not send a single soldier, what kind of covenant did it practice?" ”

Cixi snorted slightly and said, "That's noisy." ”

"Queen Mother Shengming, Vietnam and France have been arguing for 50 years, staring at each other, and the more they look at each other, the more unpleasant they become, and finally they have a big fight."

"Flutter", the queen mother and queen mother laughed, and she immediately felt that something was wrong. The face was red. Coughed lightly twice. Covering up the past.

Above the court, what do you say, "big eyes and small eyes, the more you look at it, the more unpleasant it becomes", it sounds like a smooth mouth.

Guan Zhuofan pretended not to hear anything, and continued: "In the eighth year of Xianfeng, Vietnam executed two Spanish missionaries, so that the French caught the truth, so France united with Spain. Troops were sent to Vietnam. The following year, the French and Spanish forces landed in the port of Toulon in Vietnam, and the battle officially began. ”

Cixi frowned slightly, and said: "It was the Spanish missionaries who were executed in Vietnam, what does it matter to the French?" ”

Guan Zhuofan said: "Back to the Queen Mother, it's just an excuse." However, the foreign countries in Europe have a deep relationship with each other, and one is prosperous and the other is lost. It's also a common thing, for example. The former royal family of France, and the royal family of Spain, are actually the same family. ”

Yes? This royal sister didn't expect it.

"The former royal family?"

The ears are so pointy.

"Yes, the emperor of France has changed."

Cixi frowned again, the matter of foreign devils is really troublesome, but you can't ask any more, otherwise you won't be able to understand.

She suddenly remembered something and said: "I remember that in the tenth year of Jiaqing, France and Spain joined forces and fought a naval battle with England, and the French and Spanish coalition forces were defeated, right?" ”

"The Queen Mother is really knowledgeable, that's right!"

Except for Guan Zhuofan, the other five ministers of military aircraft were all shocked: how could the Queen Mother know this historical fact? Someone even said in their hearts: I, I don't know about this!

reacted quickly, and woke up: Naturally, someone Guan told her.

Everyone couldn't help but have such a thought: "The top" is so shrewd, so "profound", and being on this errand under her, it really has to wake up the spirit!

There are also people who secretly make up for the historical situation of Western countries when they go back!

The look of surprise and admiration of the ministers, naturally could not escape the eyes of the Queen Mother, she was extremely proud, smiled, and above the court, she was suddenly charming, full of spring.

Cixi smiled at the corner of her mouth: "France, Spain, it's really a pair of difficult brothers - okay, go on." ”

"Yes. This battle lasted for almost four years, and later, in the northern part of Vietnam, there were religious rebellions, internal and external attacks, and the Vietnamese king could not stand it anymore and finally admitted defeat to the French. In the first year of Tongzhi, France and Vietnam signed a "Saigon Treaty", in which Vietnam ceded the three provinces of Bianhe, Jiading, and Dingxiang, as well as Kunlun Island, to France, plus an indemnity of 4 million. ”

After a pause, he said: "In this way, the whole place of Nanqi will be lost to France, and Vietnam will be lost to one-third." ”

The smile on Cixi's face disappeared, she was silent for a moment, and said: "This battle, from the ninth year of Xianfeng, has been fought to the first year of Tongzhi? ”

"Yes."

In the East Warm Pavilion of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he was speechless for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became very solemn.

What everyone thinks is not that "Vietnam is one out of three", but - Vietnam is a small country and weak, and it can actually resist France alone for nearly four years! Let's go back and see for ourselves...... Why is that?

Naturally, they all thought of it: Vietnam began "Western French military training" more than 70 years ago.

At the same time, there are also people who think: France is nothing more than that! Xinyou's change, if there were no British, we would be one-on-one with France, and the whole situation might not be so ugly!

The ambition of competing for the short and long is spontaneous.

Cixi broke the silence: "What kind of religion did you just say 'cultist'?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, it's Catholic."

After a pause, Kwan added: "The Catholics who rebelled were indigenous to Vietnam. ”

"Huh? That's—it's kind of like longhair. ”

"Queen Mother Shengming."

"Is it already flat?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, it has been leveled. After the signing of the Treaty of Saigon, the two countries withdrew their troops, and Vietnam was able to free up its hands to fight the rebellion with all its might, and finally last year, the first rebel was captured and the civil strife was quelled. ”

"Well, this, with our situation, is still ...... It's kind of like that. ”

"Yes. However," Guan Zhuofan coughed lightly, "Vietnam's troubles have just begun. ”

"The French are not greedy enough, and their desires are insatiable. As soon as he got the Nanqi, his eyes were fixed on the Beiqi, from the south to the north, encroaching step by step, and his attempt to annex the whole of Nguyen was exposed-that's all, the most important thing is that the fundamental purpose of the French invasion of Vietnam is to peek at our China in the north. ”

"Huh?!"

"Back to the Empress Dowager, as soon as the "Saigon Treaty" was signed, the legal person set out from Saigon to explore the Lancang River's route to China. After discovering that the upper reaches of the Lancang River were not suitable for sailing, they immediately turned to the northern part of Vietnam in an attempt to enter China through the Red River. ”

Cixi snorted heavily and said, "The wolf's ambition comes from it!" We really can't ignore Vietnam's affairs! ”

"Queen Mother Shengming!"

"It seems that this battle with the French cannot be left unfought! Not only the shame of crying blood in the past, but also the trouble of elbow and armpit changes in the future! ”

"Queen Mother Shengming!"

Some people muttered in their hearts: What is the first "wolf's ambition, it comes from", and then what is "the shame of crying blood in the past, but also the trouble of elbows and armpits in the future", this choice of words and sentences is not the consistent routine of the Queen Mother, is it......

"In another three or five years," Cixi's eyes were blazing, "I believe that we will not lose to the French!" But ......"

After a pause, he said in a very solemn tone: "You also said just now that the European empires are related to each other, once we fight with the French, will other countries, such as Britain, get involved?" Just like the Xinyou Change? Even if the British don't mix, what about the Spaniards? ”

Guan Zhuofan said: "Although the Queen Mother is relaxed, this time, the British will never do all the way with the French." Not to mention that we are running a navy with the British, but the original intention of the French to invade Vietnam was to distinguish itself from the British in India—this is not something that the British are happy to see. ”

"As for Spain, the last time it was because his missionaries were killed, and he had to send troops with the French. In fact, Spain didn't make much effort in that battle, and it was basically the French family who fought before and after. After all, the benefits that Spain can get in Vietnam are very limited, and it cannot afford to die. ”

After a pause, Guan Zhuofan continued: "Even if Spain is really blinded by lard, come to this muddy water, the minister and the queen mother of the two palaces will reply with a big sentence: Spain has long been in decline, there is no more of him, and no less of him. ”

The queen mothers of the two palaces showed a relieved smile on their faces.

"Okay, in this way, our sisters will be relieved."

"Empress Dowager Qiqi - more than that. In the past, we always conspired with outsiders, but this time, we have to completely fall down and make a good deal of the French. ”

"You mean...... Which Yangyi family to join hands with? ”

My royal sister is really smart.

"Yes, Queen Mother Shengming!"

"Is there such a good thing?"

"The minister doesn't dare to talk nonsense in front of the emperor."

"Okay," the royal sister's tone became eager, "Tell me about it!" ”
