c_t; Weng Tongyi in front of him hurriedly stood up after hearing this, knelt on the ground and played: "The Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the old minister also think that it is inappropriate to let General Jianzhi go to General Shengjing, General Shengjing is a good product, although General Jianzhi has high merits, but after all, he is too young, inexperienced, and his qualifications are still shallow. (Advertisement)"

Iktanga stopped it because the position of General Sheng Jing had always been their Manchu nobles, and it had never been touched by Han officials, so he was a little worried about destroying the ancestral precepts; And Weng Tongyi came forward to organize it completely out of selfishness, Zhang Yi is from the Beiyang family, and now Li Hongzhang has entered the Military Aircraft Department, and serving as the Minister of Military Aircraft is already too powerful, and it is difficult for the Qingliu Party to compete, if Zhang Yi is in a provincial minister, it will become Li Hongzhang's most powerful arm, and they will have a good life in the future.

Cixi's face sank after hearing this, and she said in her heart, don't you know what you said about the mourning family, I don't want Zhang Yi to take the position so quickly, the steps are too big, and it will not be beneficial to his growth at all, even if it is Ronglu, I also threw it to the northwest for ten years to exercise before I got it back. However, is there any other way, one is that Zhang Yi asked for the edge of the town, and the other is that the Japanese are still occupying Korea at the request of the Korean royal family, and they may launch another big war at any time, who can withstand the attack of the Japanese except Zhang Yi? What's more, there is Tsarist Russia in the north, coveted Mongolia and the three provinces outside the Guanwai for a long time, if Nie Shicheng is still alive, he is the best candidate, but now Nie Shicheng has passed away, Liu Xingsan is also terminally ill, which is the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty

Can you keep the ancestral mausoleum?

Cixi's face sank, and she said angrily: "You don't need to say much, the mourning family and the emperor have made up their minds, and when Zhang Yi finishes handling the affairs of Beijing, he can go to his post immediately;!" ”

Cixi continued: "Now that Nie Shicheng has passed away, Dong Fuxiang is the commander of Zhili, in charge of the Zhili military; Yuan Shikai was the governor of Shandong, succeeding Zhang Yi and responsible for the military and political affairs of Shandong Province; All the soldiers of the DPRK will be rewarded, and they will be discussed after the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War have agreed; Wei Rugui was promoted to the governor of Shandong Province and held the rank of squire of the military department; Tang Keqiang was crowned as the chief soldier of Shanxi Town, commanded the Lutai training army, moved to Fengtian, and Zhang Yi was responsible; Li Gang was crowned as the chief soldier of Gaozhou Town and moved to Fengtian; Xu Huaijin is the deputy capital of Jinzhou; Zhang Yihu is the deputy commander of the blue wolf battalion; Tan Feng is the deputy capital of Jinzhou; The rest were promoted to positions on the recommendation of Zhang Yi.

Cixi's decree was handed down one after another, and all the courtiers were surprised, such a large-scale promotion is really rare, which shows that Cixi is very satisfied with the outcome of the Sino-Japanese war.

Cixi continued: "Jianzhi, you are now in charge of the military and political affairs of Fengtian Province, in addition to defense, you must put more effort into the general government, in addition, since you are in charge of the military affairs of Fengtian, the defense of Port Arthur will also be handed over to you, anyway, you are also the deputy minister of Beiyang, Shaoquan's affairs are too heavy, and he is getting older, you can also help him share more worries." ”

Zhang Yi knelt on the ground and thanked: "Wechen thank the Emperor Lafayette for his kindness, and he will definitely work hard and devote himself to the construction of Fengtian. ”

Cixi Man

Yi nodded and said: "The tax and silver paid to the imperial court every year have risen by thirty percent, and the situation in five or six years will be doubled. ”

Zhang Yi replied: "Lafayette, the prosperity of a country lies in open source, not in throttling, as long as the people try their best to make the people rich, then the court will have financial resources available, if the people are suffering, then we just want to receive more silver, and the people can't take it out." Therefore, after the arrival of the minister, he will vigorously set up factories and mines, with Li Zhongtang as the guideline, enrich the country and strengthen the army, and the more factories and mines, the more natural taxes and silver. ”

Cixi frowned slightly, she was always a little suspicious about opening a mine and setting up a factory, and she was a little resistant in her heart, and Eleven asked: "Jianzhi, what you said is based on Shaoquan, but there is a basis, Shaoquan Gong built Beiyang, but it cost the court a lot of money?" ”

Zhang Yi smiled and said: "Lafayette, the money of the imperial court, Weichen does not dare to ask, as long as the money and military salary are paid in full, other Weichen will find a way to solve it, the jade of other mountains can attack stones, we can also follow other people's silver to earn other people's money, this abacus, Weichen can still play proficient reads;." ”

Cixi nodded.

Zhang Yi's face was solemn, and then he knelt down and said, "Lafayette, the emperor." Wechen still has something to do. ”

Cixi saw that Zhang Yi said solemnly, and replied: "Jianzhi, if you have something to say, just say it." ”

Zhang Yi said: "Lafayette, Your Majesty, although we have achieved good results in this Sino-Japanese war. However, the hardship is not enough for outsiders. For many years in our Qing Dynasty, the children of the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion soldiers have not engaged in war.

There are domestic affairs, and they are all requisitioned by the Hunan army, the Chu army, and the Huai army. However, in a battle with the Japanese army, Weichen felt a lot, our Qing soldiers lagged behind Japan too much, on the battlefield, basically two Qing troops can deal with a Japanese army, the combat effectiveness is too weak, it is difficult to shoulder the heavy task of resisting foreign enemies, some time ago, Li Bingheng led 20 large battalions of soldiers from all over Shandong, more than 16,000 people in Rongcheng Bay, it took only one day, and was defeated by more than 12,000 Japanese troops, which is the proof. Yuan Xiangcheng has always had the reputation of knowing soldiers, and in the case of similar troops in Yantai, he only held out for ten days before being defeated, why? The reason why the Qing soldiers were weak. If one day, the great armies of the Western Ocean are in the country, it will be an unprecedented disaster. It is to ask Lafayette and the emperor to issue a decree to abolish the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion, streamline the useless soldiers, concentrate financial resources, organize and train the new army, and train several elite divisions in three to five years. ”

With that, Zhang Yi raised the fold above his head.

Li Lianying came over to take the fold and handed it to Emperor Guangxu, who read it and handed it to Cixi.

Emperor Guangxu sighed: "Jianzhi, why don't I and the Queen Mother want to train an elite division? It's just that one is to abolish redundant personnel, which involves too many interests and is difficult to implement, and the other is that the Qing Dynasty is now empty in the treasury, where is there financial support to train the new army? Let's be clear, it's hard now! Zhang Yi replied in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, no matter how difficult it is, you have to squeeze out money to build an army, since ten years ago, Japan has been strong and Emperor Meiji."

Every year, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are allocated from private sources to be used as military expenses for the navy, and the Japanese treasury is 30 million taels a year, and 10 million taels are taken out for army construction, so that it has today's effect. Emperor Guangxu's face changed, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but after thinking about it, Zhang Yi's move was also for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, forget it......
