As soon as the door was closed, Xu Chunshan hurriedly came over and said hurriedly: "My lord, let this guy rob the enemy?" ”

"You don't have to worry about not having a chance to make meritorious contributions." Chen Wenqiang smiled slightly and said: "Speaking of which, you and Li Jiajun's police are the most reliable people in this official, and fewer losses will also be very beneficial to controlling the whole of Guangdong." When the suppression of bandits and the clearing of the township is over, this official will hand over this general office to the two of you, and the public security of Guangdong Province will depend on you. At that time, as the chief of a provincial police, he was quite majestic. ”

Xu Chunshan grinned, scratched his head, and said: "Actually, my subordinates still want to be generals, lead troops to lead battles, and kill vertically and horizontally, which is really majestic." ”

"Commanding thousands of troops and horses is indeed truly majestic." Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Speaking of which, this armed police is already very close to the army, and it is even stronger than most local patrol teams. Well, if you have this heart and are not afraid of sacrifice, this official will fulfill you in the future. ”

"Thank you, sir." Xu Chunshan rubbed his hands, his joy overflowing.

"Li Jiajun, he did a good job in the position of patrol assistant, and he didn't think like you, right?" Chen Wenqiang opened his mouth and asked: "The two of you, there is always one who wants to sit in Guangdong for this official." If you insist on the military, then the official must merge the armed police and the patrol police, and Li Jiajun will be the general office. ”

"He's an easy contented guy." Xu Chunshan paused. did not change his mind, "The humble position is different, the humble position cannot bear the name of the ancestors, and you must always do a great career." ”

Xu Da? Chen Wenqiang did not think that Xu Chunshan was a direct descendant of the famous general Xu Da of the Ming Dynasty, but Xu Chunshan was proud of it and inspired by it. He is happy to do it.

"When this battle is over, I will send you to Wu Shuai for training, and the new army is being formed, and there are many opportunities. As for future achievements, it's up to you. You also know Wu Shuai's temper, he is not a qualified general, he will not follow his own interests. ”

"I'm always learning and improving." Xu Chunshan replied: "If you are a mediocre general, you naturally don't dare to lead the troops to fight and harm people's lives in vain." ”

"Go and do a good job. If not, the official will still have a place for you here. Chen Wenqiang nodded and said, "This official misses the old, you know this." ”

"Thank you, sir." Xu Chunshan respectfully gave Chen Wenqiang a deep salute, his lips moved a few times, but he still didn't say anything too sensual and flattering.

Zhang Zhidong entered the military plane, and the two Han military ministers seemed to have the tendency to dominate the imperial court, but in fact it was not.

Not to mention the personal contradictions between the two. Even there are differences of opinion on the constitutionalism that is loud and loud. Zhang Zhidong was a researcher, and he wanted a set of systems that could conform to the Chinese dynasties. At the same time, there is a constitutional outline with historical basis; Yuan advocated a constitutional program that would enrich the country and strengthen the army and absorb the advantages of the eastern and western countries. In this way, the Manchu and Han ministers could no longer coordinate, and the two Han ministers did not agree on anything, and how to promote constitutional government was suspected of stagnation at the court level.

The Empress Dowager Cixi sent Prince Zaifeng to the Military Aircraft Department to study and enter the duty, forming a pattern of "two princes" in the Military Aircraft Department. In order to contain Yixuan, he transferred Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, to the minister of military aircraft, intending to use him to contain Yuan Shikai. Such a means of checks and balances is not insignificant, but there are still omissions.

The experienced Zhang Zhidong naturally knows the intentions of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and he is a Sven person after all. is also a little older, as soon as he entered the capital, he found that the water here is very deep, Yixuan and Yuan Shikai have been operating in the capital for many years, and have already formed their own circle of interests. Zhang Zhidong soon found that he was tied by Yixuan and Yuan Shikai Group, and it was difficult to make a difference.

Despite this, as the Minister of Military Aircraft of the Supreme People, Zhang Zhidong was still able to defend Chen Wenqiang above the court and say something for him. Therefore, Chen Wenqiang's secret letter was sent to Zhang Zhidong before he was going to do it on Coloane Island. There is another secret letter of the same kind, which was naturally given to Yuan Shikai.

Of course, the contents of the letter are not the whole truth, and Chen Wenqiang exaggerated the threat of Macao and Portugal to use force to achieve their expansionist goals. At the same time, he also revealed some intentions that he was ready to use tough measures to fight back against Macau. The letter also included an analysis and judgment of the domestic situation in Portugal, as well as the strength of the Portuguese army, showing confidence in the victory of the war.

Because the war has not yet started, Chen Wenqiang's secret letter seems to be just a precautionary shot, and does not mean that there will be a war with Macau and Portugal. Therefore, Zhang Zhidong and Yuan Shikai did not realize that war was just around the corner, and sent a telegram to Chen Wenqiang, warning him to be cautious and not reckless.

That's it, Chen Wenqiang's goal has also been achieved. Following his orders, after the battle with the Portuguese had begun, and the Portuguese army had dealt a decisive blow, another secret letter would be sent to Zhang and Yuan.

The intensive arrangements have been completed, and the battle plan will be put into practice first on Coloane Island.

……………

When Macau gradually became a trading hub between East and West, Coloane Island was also a place frequented by pirates. At that time, Coloane Island was barren, overgrown with weeds and precipitous, and uninhabited except for a few hunters.

A few decades later, there are now more than 2,000 inhabitants on Coloane Island, all of whom make a living from fishing. Following the unreasonable and arrogant negotiations between Macao and Portugal in the demarcation of Macao, the people of Guangdong learned that "the Portuguese are trying to occupy the nearby areas, are cunning and extravagant, and are determined to succeed" and that "the misery of land cession is at present", and they decided to "gather a large group and make every effort to save it".

The people of Xiangshan, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and other places have successively set up "boundary survey maintenance committees" to reflect public opinion and public sentiment to the government and put forward a policy for negotiations. The Xiangshan County Boundary Survey and Maintenance Committee also passed the "Constitution of the 98 Township People's League of Lianli", announcing the establishment of a militia group to take up arms to resist Macao and Portugal and defend their hometown.

The people's struggle resisted the tendency of the Manchus to compromise in their negotiations. The Qing government had no choice but to say that it was "subordinate to public opinion" and that it was "extremely cautious and properly planned" in the negotiations, rejecting the unreasonable demands of the Portuguese colonists.

By the time Chen Wenqiang began to intervene, the militia groups on Coloane Island were replenished with guns and ammunition, as well as the training of military instructors, and the patrol police were stationed on Coloane Island, and the force was greatly enhanced. And with the support of some ships of the naval division, the scattered pirates on the island were cleared.

The Portuguese authorities in Macao also noticed the changes in Coloane Island, fearing that it would hinder its gradual occupation of the whole island, and after the forts built at Lai Chi Wan were increased, the number of soldiers increased from 120 to more than 50, and they also took the opportunity to occupy the area in the name of suppressing bandits.

The situation was tense, and in order to resist the invasion, the militia of Coloane Island fought back and engaged the Portuguese soldiers. Macao and Portugal once again increased their troops by several hundred, and the original occupation of the place became a little out of control, burning down dozens of houses in Zhuwan, wantonly burning and looting, "dozens of villagers were brutally killed". The Portuguese ships also chased and sank the fishing boats, and more than a dozen people died in the belly of the fish.
