After receiving a telegram from the consul stationed in the Qing Dynasty, all the countries quickly sent representatives after an emergency meeting, preparing to come to Hu Lin to contact Hu Lin to understand Hu Lin's attitude towards the outside world. 【】
As for the so-called opening up of the capital garden treaty signed before, the countries actually did not pay much attention to it. With their understanding of the Qing people, they cannot equal the openness they perceive, and at most they only allow countries to relax in trade.
What's more, Li Hongzhang is mainly in charge of foreign affairs now, and the military leader of Hulin will understand the economy? Apparently no one had much expectations.
Generally, warlord leaders are more conservative-minded, and perhaps Hu Lin seems to be much more open-minded on the surface, but perhaps it only involves the maximum openness to the trade he needs, and if he wants to enter various commodities, he will most likely be resisted.
Everyone doesn't know how it is, if it's Li Hongzhang, everyone knows him thoroughly, but the most uncomfortable thing is that they don't know much about Hu Lin and can't make appropriate responses, which is also the lack of decision-making basis for various countries due to Hu Lin's rise too fast.
When the high-ranking officials sent by these countries to contact Hu Lin were still on the road, in the Dong Mansion, Hu Lin had already received the holy decree jade seal reward brought by Li Lianying, as well as the so-called encouragement of Cixi Guangxu.
There is no kneeling to receive the order, and it is not easy to avoid the ceremonial surrender.
Li Lianying was Cixi's attendant eunuch, and she naturally disliked Hu Lin's blackmailing of Cixi like this, and the light of hatred could be seen in her eyes.
Anyway, he is facing the strongman national consul and the minister, and it is useless for him to be red in front of Cixi, and he has an army, even Cixi, who is climbing, is afraid of this person.
Even if Li Lianying participated in the discussion with Cixi about the affairs of Hu Lin's Pingshan army, she knew that the Pingshan army was small in number and could not directly control the entire Qing state.
As long as the imperial family represented by Cixi does not cooperate, then Hu Lin will occupy a maximum of one acre and three points of land, and in the end, the world will be in chaos. But this will completely anger Hu Lin and bring ruin to the royal family.
There are not many soldiers in Pingshan, and there are only tens of thousands of people brought, and it will be difficult for Guangxi Province to fight another 100,000 people, and the combat effectiveness is not so high.
Compared with the country's million troops, it is one or two percent, and if the imperial court increases the number of troops, it will soon be able to double and completely crush the Pingshan army in terms of numbers. 【】
But there is also a problem that is overlooked, Li Hongzhang has already pulled people in the court, which is worrying.
But Hulin's advantage is not here, in those helicopters that can fly at any time to attack from a long distance. With it, Hu Lin can blow up your mansion without occupying this place, and kill all the leaders, so that the court can still retain a few bloodlines.
Listening to Cixi in the palace is most worried about this, the queen mother's clan is the most in Shengjing, it is the capital of her own people, if Hu Lin lets the helicopter go to Shengjing to blow up all over the sky, there are still a few people left.
When the pattern of domination is broken, how can the number of millions of people in the tribe face the vendetta of 45,000,000 people. Of course, Cixi would not let such a thing happen, and how to know too much about the Cixi of the Han people after entering the customs.
So he quickly made up his mind and agreed to Hu Lin's request to supervise the whole country.
At least the country is still in the Qing Dynasty, and at least it can enjoy some rights and security. It's just a matter of having more authoritarian ministers and giving up some of the rights, which is also a helpless move, I believe that proper operation in the future can save the situation, and people like Ao Bai have been defeated, and this Hu Lin is just a hairy baby.
The lobby of Dong's mansion has been requisitioned by Hu Lin, so when there are many people, it is basically equivalent to Hu Lin's private land, but Dong Fuxiang doesn't dare to say anything, or he won't say anything.
Since Hu Lin brought people to live in the Dong Mansion, all the defenses in the mansion have been replaced by Hu Lin's escorts, and hundreds of special divisions are also stationed in the side courtyard.
Don't look at the usual green flowers and trees are still like that, but maybe someone inside is holding a foreign gun to the outside.
Dong Fuxiang was originally a person promoted by Cixi, and his heart was towards the imperial court. As a result, he was persuaded by the Boxers to join in, and Hu Lin lived in his house again.
Now Hu Lin's strong strength has an inexplicable high-ranking official position, which is mixed in the three parties, which makes Dong Fuxiang extremely embarrassed. But he knew that the three parties were close for the time being, and it was better not to offend one party, at least not to offend this person in the mansion.
This hall has become Hu Lin's territory, and he sits at the top. Not only that, but there are also Li Hongzhang, Liu Kun and other court officials, Li Tiewang, Daniu, and others, the leaders of the Pingshan Army.
Next to Hu Lin, who was sitting at the top, were Li Hongzhang and Liu Kunyi, and Dong Fuxiang could only sit in the back position. Hu Lin and the three of them sat around a square platform, taking a sip of tea from time to time, and greeting each other.
The holy decree came down, and the people who let Li Hongzhang contact him also came, and Hu Lin took this opportunity to meet these people, all of whom were historical figures, and most of them still knew each other. There are people who are either worthy of respect or interests.
They all came to the Dong Mansion to meet, and they were not afraid that the court would know, and it was useless to know. "Lord Li, Lord Liu, and all the adults have worked hard, and they have come all the way over, and Hu is grateful."
"General Hu, you are now the minister of the Qincha, and you are still the minister of the commander-in-chief, you have a lot more power than the old man me, and your mentality is very calm."
Liu Kunyi met Hu Lin for the first time, and got a telegram from Li Hongzhang and hurried over from Nanjing, wanting to meet this bold man, but he didn't expect that this person did not enter the imperial city, but just asked Cixi for an official position.
"Since I agreed, old man, I naturally don't lose my word, but there are still a few important people who haven't come, and Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Shandong, and Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, didn't take care of it."
Li Hongzhang was still a little embarrassed, especially although Yuan Shikai agreed to follow Hu Lin, but no one came, how could he not know the meaning.
Zhang Zhidong and the others are okay, they are far away, especially Wang Wenshao, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, is too far away, even if they want to come and see, they can't come over, whether they support Hu Lin or not, they have to meet Hu Lin before they can be determined.
Therefore, those who came here had a relatively clear attitude, realizing that Hu Lin, the warlord who suddenly appeared, was optimistic. The current imperial court has been dissolved, the First Sino-Japanese War, the failure of the last law change caused chaos in the whole country, and there are also organizations such as the Hui Party, so that these people in high positions have to seek a safe entry and exit.
At this time, Li Hongzhang came to find it, and the news he got was from the Pingshan Army, and he had the opportunity to join the gang, and the eyes of the people who were co-opted lit up, which was definitely an opportunity.
Not to mention anything else, as long as the strength of the Pingshan Army exists, it must be a strong pole in the imperial court, since the foreigner coalition is not an opponent, then Hu Lin, the self-styled general, will inevitably get a good position in the imperial court.
No, the holy decree came, and all the people were appeased, and there was no quarrel. It's just that I don't quite understand that Hu Lin only needs the position of commander-in-chief, according to the meaning of the proclamation, he only supervises the whole country and can implement some policies. But it is not the appearance of complete control of the imperial court.
According to the Pingshan army, the capital has been controlled, and the Cixi royal family and the princes and ministers have been controlled and taken back, so how should they be the direct controllers, and Cixi and these people should be placed under house arrest.
I didn't understand that Hu Lin only got a small amount of benefits, so he directly put the big head away, or returned it to Cixi, but he had to discuss with Hu Lin on the transfer of high positions, which was a complete waste.
If it were replaced by them, they would be locked up directly, and then the whole country would be notified that the water would not accept the water, and as long as it was chaotic for a few years, the entire court would be completely controlled by themselves.
Of course, this is just what these people think, and in fact they can do this, but Hu Lin did not do this, naturally in order to reduce the country's loss and speed up development, he has already lagged behind the foreigners too much.
"Lord Liu has won the award, and I will rely on Lord Liu's support in the future." Hu Lin turned sideways to Liu Kun and then turned to Li Hongzhang.
"Lord Li laughed, naturally I believe that Lord Li, with your old age, your protégés all over the world are enough to contribute greatly to our affairs. Those who didn't come don't care for the time being, but it's a pity that Zhang Zhidong didn't come, and if I have the opportunity, I want to talk to him more. ”
Hu Lin looked at the officials below indifferently, he didn't care much about the people who didn't come, some couldn't catch up, but some were definitely wandering, wanting to find out the situation and then contact Hu Lin, so as to protect himself.
These people are okay, even if the people present, everyone knows that not all of them are sincerely supportive, there must be Cixi's spies, get Hu Lin and Li Hongzhang's actions, and then report back.
These old fritters in the officialdom Hu Lin knew that he couldn't play with them, so he put them aside for the time being, and directly wanted the result, as long as there was a powerful Pingshan army, these people would not be able to turn over the prodigal son.
Li Hongzhang smiled bitterly and didn't speak, drinking tea by himself. The meaning is naturally clear, people have found it for you, and the rest is your business.
Hu Lin looked at Li Hongzhang, who was drinking tea by himself, Liu Kunyi, who was waiting for a good show on the side, and the people below were also waiting for the following.
"When you meet for the first time, you should know who I am, and you know that I still have some strength, so let me introduce you. A certain Hu Lin is a child from a peasant family in Pingshan Village, Mashan County, Guangxi Province. You don't have to ask, you can't get in, hehe. ”
Hu Lin said, made a little joke, the people below also know that not everyone can enter that place now, think about the Pingshan Army such a powerful equipment, training such a strong soldier, can half of the people go, even if you go, as long as you open your mouth to inquire about Hu Lin, yes, don't think about it, is it a lifetime of locking up or a bullet, maybe you choose.
Looking at everyone's strange faces, Hu Lin continued to introduce: "I, too, have strong soldiers and powerful weapons, you know, I still have silver, a lot of silver, this time the coalition army captured 30 million taels of silver. Then, there is a silver mine on the other side of Pingshan, and there is a lot of silver every day, and the silver in the Pingshan silver vault is not less than the silver seized this time, and this Li Hongzhang Li also knows. Do you know what I mean, in the future, I need everyone to do things with the goal of doing well, don't care about money, and don't be afraid of offending anyone. ”
Hu Lin directly revealed two aspects domineeringly, and directly set his voice, and follow Hu Lin in the future, then money is a trivial matter, and there is no need to be afraid of obstruction.
Li Hongzhang was depressed, who knew that you had a silver mine in Pingshan? Who knows how much silver you have in your Hirayama Silver Vault? You only told me that you were very rich, and that you were very well treated for the food for the officers and soldiers. Li Hongzhang was depressed in his heart, and it was difficult to refute.
At first, everyone only thought that Hulin had a strong army, and it would cost a lot of money to raise an army and a lot of money to purchase equipment, so half of these people didn't have much money, but they actually asked them not to worry about money, and they wouldn't let themselves be filial to the money.
In addition to surprise, there is also centering, if this is the case, it will inevitably soar after getting on this boat. What is the official for, it is naturally fame and money, if there is money to earn fame, then this is excellent. If you have money, give yourself a chance, then the silver is very much.
No matter what you think about, it's all good. Of course, this is the idea of being an official in the current society, but Hu Lin is a modern person, and he will be famous in the future, but if he gets money, he may be dangerous.
Hu Lin glanced at the different expressions of the crowd. "I'm talking about these two points here to tell you that I have been crowned an official, and I must do something after I have been crowned a big official. Then it's time to do things later, the first thing, I.. Want.. Build.. Learn.. Church..."
"Academy?" Li Hongzhang was stunned, and Liu Kunyi was not excluded.
"Not the army? Building a school? "Everyone's eyes widened inexplicably, this is not scientific... (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
