"Can't you?" After listening to Li Hongzhang's terrifying words, Ignatiev shook his head in disbelief, and couldn't help but look at Putiyatin again. You must know that at the beginning, he supported Yi Xin's party to bring down the Cixi who was in the way, that was the first idea he proposed, but Puti Yating temporarily reserved his opinion for the sake of the overall situation. If Yi Xin and the others are really as Li Hongzhang speculated, wouldn't it prove how ignorant he is?
"Li Hongzhang, don't be sensational here!" Muravyov, who had been sitting in the living room with a gloomy face and never said a word, was full of gunpowder when he opened his mouth at this time, "You seem to understand everything, but why don't you think about how many military planes you have delayed?" โ
"I ......" Li Hongzhang's neck was stalked, and his confidence was slightly insufficient, "Your Excellency Commander, I have already made it clear to all of you, and it is necessary for me to come back this time." โ
"A must?" The two beautiful beards on Muravyov's lips shook, and he slapped the wooden table in his hand, which shook the tea bowls and teapots on it, "As the supreme commander of the Western Front, at such a critical moment, you were not with your soldiers, but ran back here to smash you *** yin wind and light your grandmother's ghost fire." Do you suspect that this is colluding with the rebels of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, imagine that one with the southern thief**, I*** am going to ask you now, did you deliberately stir up this chaos and collude with the Taiping rebel wolf bรจi? โ
Muravyov was really angry and sad. Is it easy for His Majesty the Tsar to cobble together such an expeditionary army of nearly 100,000 in China for him in the face of the joint attack of Britain, France and other countries in the Near East? The failure of the Weihai Special Zone can only be blamed on being too rash and overestimating the combat effectiveness of his own army, so that he did not listen carefully to the advance advice of those "friends." The lesson is painful. It is precisely because he has learned from the past experiences and lessons that he will pick up his tail, which has always been about to reach to the sky, and actively agree with the North-South peace talks advocated by Igonatiev.
In Muravyov's opinion, he is not the same as Putiyatin and Ignatiev. Putiatin is a pure political adventurer, and Ignatiev, as a diplomat, is a great political liar who is proficient in this way, and they play with their mouths. It seems that they are all fighting hard for the "national interest", but in fact, they don't care about the real win or lose. Even if they are all lost, the big deal is that the face is not very good-looking, and for these people, how much is the face worth?
But he couldn't. Today, the situation is even stricter than that of the Weihai Special Zone at that time. The 60,000 troops of northern Lubei fell into the encirclement of the Taiping Heavenly ** army, and once these armies were reduced to nothing, it would be said that the great plan of His Majesty the Tsar to open up the situation in the Far East to make up for the loss of interests in the Near East would become a spring dream. To put it mildly, the capital that he relies on for development will lose completely in this big gamble.
Who is to blame for losing so badly this time? It is hateful that the damned Great Qing Kingdom will not save itself when it sees death, but Li Hongzhang, who broke away from his subordinates without authorization and caused another imminent civil strife in the Great Qing Kingdom, is the culprit.
Not long ago, the news from the front has proved that the Sanxie people who loyally saved ** Huaiqing Town were under the leadership of the town commander Wendelekxi, and returned to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. In the text, the suffering brought to the land of China by Tsarist Russia and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is counted, and in the end, Li Hongzhang will naturally not be forgotten. In their writings, Wendel Luxe and others sternly denounced the criminal acts of Li Hongzhang and his masters in betraying the Chinese land, and it was precisely under the persecution of this great traitor who aided and abetted the abuses that they finally chose to defect to the bright road.
It wasn't until he carefully read the essay of Wendlerkexi and others that Muravyov knew that Li Hongzhang did not hesitate to break with his subordinates and secretly buried more poisonous killers for the sake of "that unruly woman" in the Old Summer Palace.
Seeing that Li Hongzhang was still a little unconvinced, Muravyov, a gambler who was about to lose out, really wanted to rush up and teach him a hard lesson. His two big furry fists clenched and gurgled, "For your own glory and wealth, you treat us as *** monkeys and treat us as your guard dogs." You scumbag, damn scoundrel! Without you bastards, how dare they be so despicable! โ
"General ......" saw that there were only four people in the room, and they were all in a hurry, and Igonatiev hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade the lord.
Muravyov didn't buy it at all, he raised his two big clenched fists high, "I'm going to arrest you immediately, and that filthy woman, I'm going to use your blood to comfort those in the Forbidden City!" Muravyov's roar shook the entire parlor.
Another two days passed, and Yi Xin found that the treasure that Zaiyuan taught him was not so accurate. According to Putiyatin's general adviser's suggestion, Yi Xin took charge of Li Hongzhang's command of the Navy President's Yamen, and he thought to himself, anyway, it will be a while before the British gunboats come, and it is difficult to say what the so-called "Navy President's Yamen" will look like in the future. After this mention was corrected, Yi Xin, Zaiyuan, and Duanhua counted the number of city gates, counted the loyalty of the guards of each city gate, and made the necessary changes in time, and then, he began to wait anxiously for another hole card to be opened.
It's just that except for the news that Li Hongzhang began to frequently come and go in the Russian legation and the headquarters of the coalition forces, there is not even a shadow of the final blow that Zaiyuan said. Due to the fact that there were assassins in the Forbidden City some time ago, and there has been a curfew in the capital, for the sake of security, the Russian legation is obviously also to strengthen its vigilance, and an additional battalion of the Fengtai Allied Army Headquarters has been transferred into the legation. Up to now, the Russian legation was full of less than 500 Tsarist Russian soldiers. In addition, there were no more Russian soldiers in the capital.
As for the Tsarist regiment stationed in the Old Summer Palace, it still "sticks to its post" as always, the only difference from the past is that the vigilance in Changchun Garden has become stricter, not to mention "idle people, etc.", that is, Yi Xin regularly sends his own Fujin to "visit", and now he is also closed. According to Puti Yatin, who still has to come several times a day to mobilize the Qing Dynasty to fight the war with all his might, the current situation is chaotic and there are many gangsters, and in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, the empress dowager under house arrest needs to be strictly protected.
Yi Xin is starting to be a little bit of a tiger. The Russians, as always, are getting worse and worse on the battlefield. He was still worried that his good friend Lin Kui would lose his previous good luck this time, and he would really be killed in the great encirclement of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom as described by Monk Lingqin. Who knows, yesterday he got a letter from Lin Kui, it turned out that Lin Kui had retreated to Xingtai before the Taiping Red Army appeared in Handan. Although it is a good thing that Lin Kui was killed again, Yi Xin can't help but think about it deeply, if the military horses in front of him do this, what should the capital do?
Lin Kui's side has not fully figured out the matter, and today, the news of Wendelek's rebellion is on the desk again, and Yi Xin's heart suddenly tightened. Mianxun was secretly transferred back without consulting him on the grounds of dealing with the Russians. How could it be so coincidental that Mianxun came back with the front foot, and Wendel Luxe betrayed the Qing Dynasty with the back foot?
Thinking about what Zaiyuan did, Yi Xin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat along his spine, could it be that Zaiyuan is a ghost?
