Chapter 111 Britain and France send troops The government and the opposition are shaken
Britain and France, who got the news, were boiling at the first time, since the two countries dominated Europe, they have never encountered the fact that the envoys of one country were directly captured in the countries concerned, and more than 20 people died in the mission, which is a great shame!
Not to mention the governments of the two countries, even the people are now boiling over the sky, and they have demanded another declaration of war, sending troops to East Asia, and seeking justice from the Qing government! The hawks of the two countries are clamoring one by one, this time the emperor of the Qing Kingdom must be completely sobered up!
Under such circumstances, if the governments of the two countries do not send troops again, then they will be sorry for themselves, and they are already a little dissatisfied with the content of this collegiate meeting, and they feel that they have suffered some losses.
Britain and France issued orders at about the same time to mobilize 40 warships and 30,000 soldiers from both countries from Asia, and appointed the Viceroy of India, Saxton, as the commander-in-chief of the Anglo-French alliance to expedition to the Qing Dynasty.
In just half a month, Britain and France completed the build-up of their troops and began to march towards the west coast of the Pacific Ocean.
At this time, Emperor Xianfeng was completely dumbfounded, in Tianjin, Prince Gong? Even if it is worn out, the British and French ministers ignore it, in a word, this hatred, this hatred, great shame, non-war can not be solved!
Ten days, without the slightest progress, Yi? He and Monk Greenqin are also a little desperate, and next, the Qing Kingdom can only face the war between Britain and France again!
Fortunately, Seng Lingqin still has some confidence, the last time Britain and France bombarded Dagukou, didn't they still be beaten by us and couldn't find the north? This time, it may not be that Britain and France will be able to take advantage, but we will give it a go, as long as we can repel the British and French forces and keep the Gyeonggi area from losing, it will be the biggest victory!
Monk Lingqin persuaded: "King Gong, it's time now, we can only prepare for war quickly, and take precautions when the British and French forces attack Tianjin again, and the capital is up to you!" ”
Abundant? A wry smile, unlucky, I and Guo Ye spent a lot of effort to reach the result with Britain and France, but it was just stirred up by that waste of Zaiyuan, a rat feces, ruined a good pot of soup.
Back in the capital, Yi? The results of the discussion were reported to Xianfeng, and Xianfeng is now so angry that he has the heart to kill, scourge! What's more, Zaigaki is a scourge! The biggest scourge!
Xianfeng issued a holy decree to remove the title of Prince Zaiyuan Yi, and removed all errands for the auxiliary generals who did not enter the eight points, as for Mu Meng, the secretary of the military department, he was directly dismissed from the post of the secretary of the military department, and demoted to the Shaoqing of Dali Temple from the third grade.
However, these are useless efforts, and the most important thing is, what to do now! How can we avoid another war between Britain and France!
At this juncture, the civil and military officers of the Manchu Dynasty were all dumbfounded, who knows, this time Britain and France will raise troops to invade the border again, and it will definitely not be like last time, only a few thousand people, foreign devils who have suffered a loss, I don't know how many troops will be sent! Can the big sale be stopped? Can Tianjin stop it? Once the British and French troops landed in Tianjin, then Beijing would have no barriers!
"Speak, you speak! Dute is dumb? Speak! ”
Xianfeng jumped like thunder, the more he thought about it, the more he was angry, none of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could make a strong effort!
On the side, he said in a solemn and deep voice: "Your Majesty, so far, we have nothing to say, war is inevitable, Britain and France have rejected all peace talks, and they are determined to fight with us again, avoid not fighting, it is not the best policy, for today's plan, we can only prepare early, and order the monk and Shengbao to deploy strictly in the Gyeonggi area to block the enemy from abroad!" ”
"Blocking the enemy from abroad? How to stop the enemy from abroad? Su Shun, you should tell me, how to stop the enemy from abroad? In the last war, the British and French forces lost several cities, and even ****** Guangzhou City! If it weren't for a Guo Ye at the mouth of Dagu, maybe even the mouth of Dagu would have been lost, and the current city of Beijing might have been occupied by foreign devils! What the hell do you tell me, how do we stop the enemy from the outside world? ”
Xianfeng roared angrily.
Guo Ye? That's right, Guo Ye, the last bloody battle in Dagukou relied on Guo Ye, how could he be separated from him this time?
Su Shun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the slave thinks that for today's plan, the only way to send seven hundred miles to expedite and quickly summon Guo Ye to return to King Jingqin, although the land east of the Ussuri River is important, but compared with Beijing City, it is far behind, and the minister thinks that Guo Ye should be quickly recruited to return to King Jingqin, so as to wait for the British and French tiger and wolf division!" ”
Xianfeng was also a bright eye, rubbing, the most critical time, forgot about this matter! That's right, Guo Ye was able to keep Dagukou last time, so this time, it's okay! He is the only one in the entire court who is the best at foreign affairs!
It's just that Xianfeng at this time was already sick and rushed to the doctor, and he was confused, "Guo Ye, where is Guo Ye now?" Where did he go? ”
Prince Gong? There was a wry smile in my heart, this emperor, it's really speechless, why did my father fall in love with him in the first place, it's just a waste, if Lao Tzu is in this position, how can he be a hundred times stronger than him?
Prince Gong bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, didn't Guo Ye follow your will and lead the Baoding Town Department to an expedition outside the pass, now I am afraid that his army is fighting fiercely with the army of Tsarist Russia, and I am anxious, I am afraid that I will not be able to distinguish the winner from the loser, and at this time, I am afraid that the withdrawal of the army will not only damage the morale of the **** generals, but also the area east of the Ussuri River, will also be handed over to others......"
Xianfeng's heart swelled with despair, rubbing, far away in Heilongjiang, two or three thousand miles away, even if Guo Ye has wings, Baoding Town will not be able to fly back to Beijing in three or five days!
Xianfeng sat on the dragon chair, stunned, and then roared: "No matter so much! Immediately rushed 700 miles, and quickly summoned Guo Ye to return to Beijing, didn't he use the American ship to transport it last time, and this time, he also used someone else's ship to transport it back! I paid them ten times the price! As long as Guo Ye's army can be transported back, it can be at any price! ”
When Xianfeng was roaring, a guard hurriedly walked in and said urgently: "Your Majesty, seven hundred miles of Heilongjiang outside the door is urgent!" Guo Ye, the chief soldier of Baoding Town, first arrived in Heilongjiang, won the first battle, and broke the Russian army and the city of Aichun! ”
Not only Xianfeng was startled, but the important ministers on both sides were a little shocked, breaking the Russian army and Aichun City! It's only been a few days! From Tianjin to now, no, minus the time of hundreds of miles of urgent reporting, Guo Ye only took less than ten days!
Xianfeng snatched the good news, sure enough! It clearly reads: ...... Relying on the emperor's heavenly might, the soldiers used their lives, killed more than 2,000 Russian troops and captured hundreds of them under the city of Aichun, captured the city of Aichun, and soon sent Vladivostok! ……”
