Chapter 34: There is Gundam

After three rounds of drinking, Second Master Song asked drunkly: "Fourth brother, I heard that the foreigners haven't finished fighting yet?" ”

Xianfeng: "The foreigners think we can't beat it." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Second Master Song: "Foreigners look down on people!" ”

Xianfeng: "No, I asked the Japanese envoy, in fact, we can still fight, the Huns moved westward in the past is to go to Europa, where foreigners live, and built a country called Hungary." Later, the Turks were also defeated by our ancestors, and then they also went to Europa and founded a country called Turkey. Genghis Khan also once hit Europa, and the turn of the Europa people was a matter of two or three hundred years. ”

Second Master Song: "So, the imperial court wants to march west?" ”

Xianfeng: "That's what it means, then Russia can't fight if it doesn't work, it's all bullied to the doorstep." The logistics of grain and grass Japan has built a large airship that can help transport part of it, so you should look at it as a large Kong Ming lantern that can transport goods. ”

Second Master Song: "Can Kong Ming Lantern still carry goods?" ”

Xianfeng: "The Japanese say it's big enough, but it's a few hundred meters long. ”

Second Master Song: "I'm a mother." A few hundred meters long. ”

Xianfeng: "The way of the world has changed, and I can't understand it." Not only can't I understand it, but the adults in the military cabinet can't understand it either. ”

Second Master Song: "I know that wealth and wealth still need to be taken directly, and without these foreign soldiers, my family is living on a tight diet and fast." As soon as this foreign soldier came, he sent a fortune. ”

Xianfeng: "A good man is like this. Go one. ”

Second Master Song: "Let's go." ”

But the first time I saw the huge airship was not the Qing army and the people of the capital, but the city of Nanjing in the turmoil at this time was still the capital of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

When the olive-shaped huge airship with a length of more than 500 meters and a width of nearly 100 meters flew to the head of Nanjing, both the Hunan army besieging the city and the Taiping army outside the city knelt down to worship or panicked.

In the eyes of the two of them, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Battle was too long -- according to the development of history, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and its remnants can still be tossed for more than ten years -- in the past ten years, tens of millions of people have died in the war, and in Lin Haiyang and Song Haiping's plan, China will enter a great colonial era in the future, and population is the key to colonial security.

In fact, Americans are still quite smart, if it weren't for the signing of the Chinese Exclusion Act, not to mention California at this time, even the entire western United States would be a paradise for Chinese. At that time, tens of thousands of Chinese went to the western United States every year to pan for gold or earn a living, and the hard-working and simple Chinese laborers really scared the Americans.

And now the Hunan army, which has taken advanced weapons, is still stubborn and stubborn, fighting in a stupid way, and there is no progress in strategic and tactical thinking at all, and it does not give a word.

In fact, Song Haiping and Lin Haiyang did not understand the military politics at this time, and in military politics at this time, people generally believed that the thief should not be killed, and the official would die after killing the thief. If the Liangshanzhong of the Song Jiangbu and the Fangla rebels had been fighting for more than ten or twenty years, and forced the Fangla to crisscross more than a dozen provinces with large soldiers, and the Song Jiangbu followed behind to recover the lost territory, resume production, appoint and dismiss local officials, then there would be nothing left of the imperial court, and it could even be said that who fed whom the poisonous wine.

Li Hongzhang and Lao Li made tens of millions of taels of silver for future generations by starting out with the suppression of bandits and the Westernization movement, and if the First Sino-Japanese War broke out a few years later, maybe Lao Li's own net worth would be enough to pay compensation -- the reason for the defeat of the Beiyang Naval Division was that he had not bought a new ship for many years, and your old man's own net worth could buy several battleships, or a 10,000-ton cutting-edge battleship.

There may be a misunderstanding between the two sides here, the Manchu court believes that the Beiyang Navy Division is Li Hongzhang's personal army, while Li Hongzhang believes that the Beiyang Navy Division is the force of the imperial court, and no one is willing to take responsibility but wants to benefit from it.

Zeng Guofan didn't make much money himself, but he couldn't stand his younger brother and the Hunan officers and soldiers from making money - the total number would not be lower than that of Lao Li, Zeng Guofan's hometown in the later period of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, the price of land rose several times, all of which was caused by the Hunan officers and soldiers who made a fortune in the war buying land at home.

After the suppression of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the people who had persuaded Zeng Guofan to raise troops against the Qing Dynasty had at least one reinforcement company, Zeng Guofan estimated that he had also thought about this problem, but in the face of a group of subordinates who were determined to go home to be landlords and rich people, the benefits that could be obtained from opposing the Qing Dynasty were too far away, and we were now rich people and no longer wanted to fight with our lives.

The combat effectiveness of such a unit may not be much stronger than that of the Eight Banners Green Battalion in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, after all, rabbits bite when they are in a hurry.

An orange-red giant airship came in the air, and Hong Xiuquan, the Heavenly King who was in the Tianjing Imperial City, who was having a spiritual exchange with Heavenly Father and Heavenly Brother, also got the news and came to the palace courtyard to see the airship.

After watching the huge airship for a while, there was no movement, and the bolder Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan trembled and said: "Spread the Heavenly King's order, tell the front-line soldiers that this must be the day when the father and brother come to help me sweep away the demons." ”

It was too late to say that it was too fast, and two tall humanoid metal robots, one red and one blue, flew down from the nearly 100-meter-high airship, each of which was fourteen or fifteen meters high, and slowly landed in the sky above the Tianwang Mansion in Tianjing City.

Hong Xiuquan said happily: "You two must be father and eldest brother, I have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

As soon as Hong Xiuquan's voice fell, the huge blue robot raised his foot and trampled the king Hong Xiuquan, who was still trembling excitedly not far away, into a pulp, and then the blue robot said: "Heavenly Father, Brother Tian's surname is Ye, Er's surname is Hong, where is the relationship between father and son?" ”

The surrounding Taiping army guards and palace maids saw it clearly and heard it clearly, and they only felt that the tall blue giant was so reasonable that they couldn't refute it.

After the blue robot finished speaking, the red robot also said in a deep voice that could be heard dozens of miles away: "Now that Hong Xiuquan is dead, the rest of the Tianping Army, whether it is officers and soldiers or family members, will put down their weapons and go to the airboat for me, and I will have a wealth waiting for you." The officers and soldiers outside the city are not allowed to go out of the camp to fight while the airships are present, otherwise they will be killed. Don't be unpredictable. ”

In this way, under the supervision of the two Gundam robots, huge airships with a cargo capacity of 500 tons landed one by one in various places controlled by the Taiping Army, and the Taiping Army and their families who boarded the airships were transferred to the distant Hawaiian Islands little by little.

Whether it is facing an airship that is more than ten meters high or several hundred meters high, neither the Taiping army nor the Hunan army has the courage to resist at all. On the contrary, more and more people in the vicinity burned incense and bowed in the face of Gundam and airboats.

After Song Haiping, Lin Haiyang and the Japanese airship unit spent a month to collect the remnants of the Taiping Army, which numbered millions of people (including the Twist Army and their families), they also cleaned up the wealth obtained by the Taiping Army in more than a dozen provinces over the years, totaling 100 million taels of gold and silver, as well as hundreds of tons of antique jewelry. It seems that it is not for nothing that the Taiping army likes to attack the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is impossible to compare with this bitter cold land in the northwest.
