Chapter 399: Entering Beijing
The capital is not strange to Liu Yun at all, he would come to the capital every year before the crossing, and he is more familiar with the places of interest here than the authentic people of Beijing, but hundreds of years ago, he was a little unfamiliar.
The Australian Homeland Security Agency has been in the capital for three days, and judging from the current situation, depending on the Manchu intelligence department, they have not been discovered, which makes Liu Yun have to admire the team members he has trained, which is still good enough.
Three days was enough time for Liu Yun to investigate the news of the Manchu Qing Dynasty clearly.
Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty is mainly divided into two factions, one faction advocates continuing to cross the Yangtze River and fighting to the death with the Southern Ming, as for the Australians, they feel that although Australia's firepower is strong enough, but after all, there is no advantage in personnel, and they can use crowd tactics.
Since everyone has no absolute superiority at present, it is better to make peace, and when they have the strength, they will fight, and the most important thing is whether they can form an alliance with the Australians.
If the Australians and the Manchus were allies, then the Southern Ming court was not enough, which was an idea headed by the little emperor.
As for Dorgon's idea, he advocated continuing the offensive, launching simultaneous attacks from three directions, using crowd tactics to contain a part of the Australian army, so that the Manchu army could at least cross the river.
As the commander in chief on the battlefield, he saw that Australia's shortcomings were in personnel, and he also advocated alliance with Spain and other countries, as long as a part of Australia's forces was contained in the Nanyang generation, their navy would not be able to enter the Yangtze River for blockade.
"Director, now the people in the capital don't see how hot their lives are, the little emperor has issued several decrees to make the Manchu and Han equals, and even selected a concubine of the Han military banner, which is obviously to buy people's hearts, if a few years later, maybe the Han people in the north will not necessarily miss the rule of the Southern Ming."
Liu Yun was also aware of the situation that the team members said, all the way north, the Manchu Qing Dynasty's implementation of policies in various places was very early with the history he had learned before, perhaps it was the existence of the Southern Ming Dynasty that made the Manchu nobles not dare to oppress too much.
"After all, Nanming's regular propaganda is not covered, Director, when will we submit the credentials?"
This time in Beijing, the Bureau of Homeland Security and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are a joint visit, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not yet arrived, so it is impossible for Liu Yun to appear first, and he is only the vanguard of this activity, and he will report to Wu Zhengdao after understanding the situation clearly.
There is no hurry, the people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will arrive in the capital in two days, and we will meet and make plans when the time comes.
It's not important to see the emperor of the Manchu Dynasty, the important thing is that some of the Ming officials actually want to rebel in Australia, which is intolerable to Liu Yun and the others, absolutely not, this is tantamount to touching the bottom line.
Some white-eyed wolves in the Ming court must be eliminated, if these people go to a high position, the interests of Australia will be greatly damaged, so it is very important to increase the training of international students.
Liu Yun was thinking about how to solve the problem in front of him, especially the Nanming officials who had always supported him actually had such an idea, which made him a little puzzled, whether it was their traditional thinking that affected them or personally.
However, at this time, the attitude of the Manchu court towards the visit of Australia was very high, no matter what the argument between the two factions was, but their conclusion was the same, that is, the safety of the Australians north of the Yangtze River must be guaranteed, and once something happened to the Australians, waiting was to start a war.
It is rumored that the Australian Foreign Ministry has very great power and has the right to declare war on foreign countries, and in the event of an emergency, it can mobilize troops stationed abroad to conduct operations.
The Manchus also had external departments, but their power was not so great, so when they contacted the Australians, they had to understand their situation and the responsibilities of each department, so they also had a good understanding.
After knowing the special status of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs among the various departments in Australia, the Manchu Qing naturally attached great importance to it, especially for fear that the Southern Ming court would send personnel to obstruct the assassination activities, after all, as long as the Australians had an accident on the chassis of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the most advantageous thing was the Southern Ming.
Of course, Lao Shen did not dare to do this, once the incident happened, the alliance between Australia and Nanming would be dissolved.
Assassinate the Australian official, he didn't dare to do such a thing, and he also asked the people below to resolutely not do this, otherwise once it was found out, he would not only behead but also the nine clans.
Therefore, even if some officials in Nanming were ready to move, they did not dare to mess around at this time, and could only look forward to a visit between the Australians and the Manchus, which was just an ordinary visit, not an alliance.
In the palace of the Southern Ming Dynasty, some officials expressed different views on Australia's move, some thought that this move was a betrayal and demanded that the Australian government give an explanation immediately, while others said that they would continue to expand the opening up to Australia and not push people to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
What Australians want is the market, and what we have is the market, so Lord Shousuke, I think we should increase investment in Australia.
This official has been to Australia with him, and it is also with the funding of Australia that he has sat in his current position, which can be said to be a pro-Australian faction, and he thinks that Daming should fully introduce Australia's system, of course, this will definitely not work.
No, once all the Australian goods enter our territory, the impact on our local market is not small, but also cautious, I think the Australian visit is just an ordinary visit, they are more inclined to our talks with the Tatars.
It is no secret that Australia has military friction with the Dutch in the Nanyang generation, so the Ming officials still know about this matter, and they know that the Australians want to transfer troops to solve the Nanyang matter.
The matter was put on hold for the time being, leaving the Jinyi guards to keep an eye on their movements, and it was important to know the conversation between the Australians and the Tartars.
Wu Zhengdao took the official road, and before entering Beijing, he specially met with Lao Shen in the hope that they would not misunderstand, and the visit between Australia and the Manchus was just an ordinary visit, which would not affect the alliance policy with Nanming.
Even so, Lao Shen was still more worried about what agreement was reached between Australia and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and finally sold the Ming Dynasty, so he gave an order at the first time, the troops along the Yangtze River were ready for battle, and they should not relax, and they could not fully trust the Australians at this time, otherwise once something happened, he Lao Shen Zhongxing's ministers could not do it, and he might become a historical sinner.
