Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Eight Banners of Russia or the Yellow Russia?
In this kind of shipbuilding race, island countries such as Japan and Britain, which are located near the mainland, will inevitably be killed early if they do not make efforts to develop their navies. www.biquge.info Of course, judging from the fate of Britain and Japan, no matter how much the island countries attach importance to naval development, they will only die late.
After all, the mainland country has a large depth and a large population with resources, and once the industry breaks out, it will be the death period of the island country -- it is really indescribable to see that Britain, which used to dominate the four seas, is now requisitioning civilian cruise ships to carry out naval parades.
Of course, it is a bit too late to say that the period of death is just a revival of the tradition of a small country serving a large country. To put it simply, the way for a small country to survive is to be a little brother, a lackey, a minion, and cannon fodder for a big country......
Japan, which is learning Chinese characters throughout the country, is already very conscious of this. As for Japan's future, Song Haiping and Lin Haiyang have already made the decision to give New Zealand and New Guinea to Japan -- and then develop them when Japan has enough rich labor. Anyway, it's also generous to others.
For Song Haiping, Lin and Haiyang, the earth's resources are a lot less, but not too much. If you say more, the total number of resources is still quite considerable, and if you say less, most of them are resources that are difficult to develop.
For example, China later announced that its own iron ore reserves were the world's first, but the amount of imported iron ore was also the world's first.
The world's largest freshwater resource is Lake Belga, which is the North Sea where Su Wu herded sheep, but only a small number of Russians are alive around Lake Belga, and they are completely unused. While the Russians are wasting Lake Belga, more than a billion people in the world do not have access to clean water every day.
If the North Sea is still China, it is entirely possible to consider a project to divert water from the north to the Yellow Sea to solve the problem of water shortage in northern China.
Here in the capital, although the Eight Banners suffered heavy casualties, they finally annihilated 30,000 British and French invaders, which was a great victory that could be completely taken. When the news came to the capital, the sound of firecrackers rang out all night, and people bought wine and meat to celebrate, making this October like the New Year.
After the war, Xianfeng did not return to the capital as soon as possible, but used the holy decree to transfer the young men of the Eight Banners in the capital, and the half-grown children of the bannermen, to the Tongxian battlefield - let these successors of the Eight Banners see what a real war is.
In his reprimand to these Eight Banners, Xianfeng said: "Now, the Eight Banners rely on us, and in the future, the Eight Banners rely on you. ”
Some of the work of cleaning up the corpses of foreign soldiers was also handed over to these young soldiers, but the corpses of foreign soldiers were gathered and poured with fire oil and burned -- the corpses of their own people were naturally brought back and coffins were built for burial.
It was Yu Deqian's idea to burn the corpses of foreigners, in order to avoid the outbreak of the plague - if it was simply buried, it would not prevent rats and wild dogs from eating the corpses.
But the Qing soldiers also thought that this idea was good, isn't this just a crushing of the bones and ashes of foreigners, and little Japan is also very ruthless.
Foreign soldiers are also of great use, and some of them who are injured may waste food can be brought to the Taimiao Temple to worship their ancestors and killed. The remaining healthy captives were kept in cages outside the Shuntian Mansion and the Five Cities Terracotta Division, so that the citizens of the Four Nine Cities took turns to watch and watch: "Wow, Kunlun Nu. Wow, bearded Ah San. Wow, this donkey goods. ”
For the foreign captives, there was no shortage of food, and on the days when they were exhibited in cages, rotten leaves and rotten eggs were thrown in - but unfortunately no one threw salad dressing.
On this festive day, there are occasionally some discordant sounds. For example, after the war, the Russian minister Ignachev brought two or three servants to the capital in the name of exchange for the treaty. Everyone thought that this Russia had come to learn from the Americans to surrender and exchange the treaty because the Anglo-French alliance had completely destroyed the intention of invading China.
How do you know that after Minister Ignachev met Emperor Xianfeng in the court of the Great Imperial Conference, the first thing he said was: "You have a big deal in the Qing Dynasty, do you know?" The British and French are just a partial division that has been annihilated, and they will not give up.
France is the first power in Europe, Great Britain and England are the empire on which the sun never sets, and now Britain and France are invincible in the world. I don't think it will take a few years, but I'm afraid that this palace will be burned down by the Anglo-French army. ”
Without waiting for others to ask, Ignachev said in the main hall: "Now if China wants to continue to survive, the only way to practice is to practice with me and Russia." The places north of the Great Wall and west of Shanxi were ceded to the Russian Empire as protection money. Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, you can call me Tsar Alexander II of Russia as your father emperor according to Chinese tradition, and moving to the Kremlin will definitely ensure the absolute safety of you and your family. I, the Russian Empire, will definitely guarantee the territorial security of Yellow Russia in the future. ”
Emperor Xianfeng laughed angrily: "Okay, okay, you go back and tell the Yali Mountain Twenty, when the Holy Ancestor Emperor, I had a Russian Eight Banners in the Qing Dynasty, and now, I also want to compile a Russian Eight Banners." Whether this China has become Yellow Russia or Russia has become the Russian Eight Banners, let's see on the battlefield. ”
Ignachev: "I have to say that Your Majesty, it is undoubtedly irrational for your Motherland to declare war on our Russian Empire after offending Britain and France. ”
Xianfeng, who was already mad: "Haha, people want my seat in Britain and France, and they have sent troops all the way to fight, you Russia is good, as soon as the upper lip touches the lower lip, you want me to be the emperor, and send you and your stupid emperor Yali two words" Phew!" ’。 ”
The Russians' attempt to take advantage of the fire and loot was not realized, at least by lip service. When the atmosphere in the hall was embarrassing, a little eunuch ran in: "Great victory!" Great victory! ”
Xianfeng: "Say." ”
Little eunuch: "The Japanese naval fleet poured out, and there was a big battle with the British and French navy in Dadonggou, and the fifteen ironclad ships of the Japanese Navy were not lost, and most of the more than 200 warships of the British and French naval forces were sunk, with heavy casualties, and only more than ten small ships escaped. ”
