Chapter 175: The Emperor Really Only Eats One Meal

The Nanjing government received Guangxu's guilty edict at the first time! He Ziyuan, who was on duty in Nanjing, didn't dare to slack off, originally he thought that this was a simple diplomatic incident, but he didn't expect that the emperor did issue a guilty edict!

He sent this telegram to the offices of the other three prime ministers overnight, and the core leadership of the empire was shaken, and a meeting was held overnight, and now the Nanjing escort must do something. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The top of the empire has never encountered anything else, and the emperor himself issued an edict of guilt! What do the people of the empire think of the current government, "The king is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the king is humiliated and the ministers die!" ”。 The emperor has a big problem with his companions!

Zhao Bingjun slammed the telegram on the table, and then said that the arrogance of the Japanese people is tolerable, which is unbearable!

Tang Rongjun rubbed his swollen temples, the current imperial economy is like a wild horse that has escaped from the reins, Tang Shaoyi didn't have the energy to catch him before, and the current Tang Rongjun is also weak. Many localities began to form their own industrial circles, and the power of industrial groups reached new heights.

More importantly, Tang Rongjun found that he, the vice premier, could not implement many economic policies, he could not raise taxes at will, could not ban any policy at will, and the current businessmen have all become wolves with bright eyes, constantly moving forward according to interests.

Tang Rongjun is now like a warrior waiting at the border, constantly warning and adjusting the scope of the border, once that evil businessman breaks through the boundary of morality and law, he is responsible for coming out to uphold justice.

Therefore, the current Nanjing government is like a night watchman at night, only where there is injustice, where there is a signal for help, they will rush over to help, and the government really has no energy and time to manage the daily operation of industry and commerce!

Now the government agencies of the Chinese Empire and there was no way to compare them before, there were originally more than 1,000 counties in the country, then there were more than 1,000 county magistrates, and since the empire was renamed, the original bureaucratic system collapsed.

During the period when the government of Nanjing accompanied by the capital fled from Beijing and the establishment of a new administrative structure in Nanjing, the local government of the entire empire did not have news of Beijing. Shattered in the face of reality! ”

Not only did Huaxia not have chaos, but it got a respite, and it was a rare respite!

The civil bureaucratic system that has been in operation for 2,000 years, the squire system that has been implemented for a thousand years, and the Chinese people, who have pursued peace and non-contention and abide by order, have been able to operate smoothly on their own when the upper echelons of the empire are in chaos. In fact, the Chinese people really don't want much!

In Lingao County, Hainan, this county is almost the southernmost part of the empire, and there is nothing big about it in normal times.

At that time, Gao Zhenlin, the magistrate of Lingao County, was 53 years old, and if there was no accident, he would have chosen to retire and go home in two years, but he didn't expect him to encounter such a big change!

Gao Zhenlin Zhixian is the Jinshi of Xianfeng for seven years, and since the implementation of the imperial examination system in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, a total of 100,000 Jinshi were selected in 1893, which also includes the selection of Jinshi in the Tang and Song dynasties.

For more than 1,000 years, 100,000 people are very precious to a nation whose total population has always accounted for more than 20% of the world's population, from 40 million to 450,000 large unified empires.

Therefore, the main hall of the county where Jinshi does the seven products is called the tiger class! It means that no one can shake the official position of these people.

But Gao Zhenlin encountered something he had never encountered before!

After the Nanjing government stabilized in Nanjing, it immediately issued an edict to the whole country!

Huaxia changed its signboard and changed its name to "Huaxia Empire!" ”

This is nothing for ordinary people, but there is one more thing that Gao Zhenlin can't ignore and pay attention to!

The imperial government agencies were reshuffled, first of all, the bald decree, the braids were cut off, and the local governors were elected by the squires, starting from the county level, and reporting to the Nanjing capital government at all levels!

On the day of the meeting with the squire, Gao Zhenlin did not wear the original official uniform, but wore a cyan gown, and after seeing that almost all the squires had arrived, he said to the shaver behind him; "Let's get started!"

At the same time, the criminal master also launched the decree of the Nanjing Companion Government!

After hearing this, the squires present all understood, Huaxia has changed!

If the emperor hasn't changed, it's quite stable, but this bald law is really unacceptable, after all, he has combed his own braids for a lifetime, and the men of the empire at this time feel that having a big black braid is a beautiful man!

But seeing that the county official Gao Zhenlin was already bald, Gao Zhenlin's braids were cut off, and the hair on the back was neatly scattered, but it was obvious that the shaver had no intention of stopping, and he put Gao Zhenlin's braids into Gao Zhenlin's hands.

Gao Zhenlin held his braid, put it on his chest, closed his eyes, and two hot tears ran down Gao Zhenlin's cheeks!

Then Gao Zhenlin's other hair also began to fall one after another, and after a while, Gao Zhenlin became a bald head!

Later, his two masters, his criminal name and money and grain, also became bald!

At this time, Gao Zhenlin said; "Squires! Let me ask you a question? During my tenure in Lingao County, how did I treat everyone? ”

Squires look at each other!

At this time, an old man who was already full of gray hair, but his eyes were embarrassed, spoke; "Adults love the people like sons, and they are honest officials, but they are really the living Bao Gong, the reincarnated Hai Rui!"

Gao Zhenlin said; "Senior! You're so kind!

Let's be honest! According to the decree of the Nanjing Cabinet, I am no longer the magistrate of Lingao County, and the empire will reappoint officials at all levels. And it was elected by the squires!

I, Gao Zhenlin, say it in all fairness, I don't have any great credit for Gaolin County, but I know very well that I have no major faults, which is why the old man dares to stay and meet with everyone with a thick face.

Today, I asked you to ask you if you think I can be the county magistrate. Then please nominate someone from my Gao, and I promise you that Lingao County will only be better in the future, not worse!

The scene is very calm!

Then the old man spoke; "The county magistrate Gao is benevolent, and please don't abandon the people of Lingao!"

Gao Zhenlin was very excited in his heart, he knew that his position as the county magistrate had been saved!

At this time, he said lightly; "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I can't stay in Gaolin County, the prefect of Qionghai Mansion has already hung up the seal and left, and this official is going to temporarily act as mayor!"

The old man said; "How to deal with the political affairs of this county!"

Gao Zhenlin said; The city is not far from here, and the affairs of the county, the squire will govern it! If necessary, come to the city to find me, and now the county magistrate of Wenchang and Ding'an are also going to Qionghai Prefecture, so we can't lag behind, and immediately organize representatives to go to the city with the county magistrate.

The mayor will also be elected in the future, and the capital of Beijing and Nanjing will only send public security and financial personnel at most, and our good days are coming!

During the period of alternation of the old and the new, many officials knew that they were a corrupt official in the hearts of the squires and the people, so after making the last money, they fled with their families and gold and silver, and some of them stayed and were recognized by the local squires.

There are many places from county officials to governors, many people choose to hang the seal and go, at this time the important role of the Chinese double subordinate official system is reflected, the official is gone, and the class of officials is guarding their respective posts!

The prisoners in the prison are still being held, and the transportation, taxes, are all operating normally under the protection of those prison officials, treasury officials, squad leaders, and head hunters. The gentry of all classes of the empire also exerted the power of their respective families to maintain the normal functioning of society.

This is how the Chinese Empire came over during the six months of its transformation, and to this day, there are still 20% of the places that the Nanjing government has not yet clearly controlled, and these places are all remote, impoverished mountainous areas.

A lot of things happened during this period, vendetta was the most important one, and suddenly there was no stable social structure, and many people began to get restless, but these things were quickly suppressed by the central army and the police force.

There are also the original green battalions, many of the officials turned into warlords, and the city was once expanded, especially during the war of the Central Royal Army against Tsarist Russia, they developed rapidly in the interior.

At one time, there was a force to confront the Royal Army, but only once it had such strength!

The factories set up by the royal family in the coastal cities along the river made the royal army very advanced, and those large and small warlords were not the opponents of the royal army at all, and the more important changes in the world were the changes.

There were fewer and fewer soldiers who followed the warlords, because of the factory and land reform, many of the warlords' soldiers found that following the old chief, they originally planned to eat meat, but in the end, they couldn't even drink soup.

There were a lot of workers in the factories along the coast, and the wages for a month were much higher than the income from the sale of the head pinned to the waistband, so the armies of the warlords shrank day by day, and eventually even the warlords themselves disbanded on the spot.

In 1893, there were only a handful of warlords in the country who were still fighting against the Royal Army. Don't worry!

The current Chinese Empire is still very chaotic, but every citizen of the empire knows that they will definitely get better in the future!

。。。。。。

Tang Shaoyi stared ahead with blank eyes, ignoring Zhao Bingjun's anger at all! His fingers kept tapping on the telegram!

He said leisurely: "We also want to apologize to the people of the whole country!" Tell the people of the whole country that this is the fault of our unfavorable handling of the government of the capital, not the fault of the emperor! ”

Filing an application with an international tribunal for international arbitration. Japan must give the Chinese Empire an explanation!

The Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Reich at the same time lodged the most serious protest with Japan, telling Japan. The Huaxia Empire will use all means at its disposal to seek justice!

Tomorrow will definitely trigger a wave of demonstrations, Bingjun, you get ready!

Tang Shaoyi finally said, I take the blame and resign!

。。。。。。

At this time, the Japanese ambassador to the Chinese Empire in Nanjing was about to break his heart, how could he be so unlucky! It's not easy to be an ambassador!

He now wondered how he was going to get through the perilous days of tomorrow!

Will he die here, this place is very good, very prosperous, much more prosperous than the rivers and lakes, but he really doesn't want to die here.

He stood in the telegraph room, watching the translator send the protest of the Chinese Empire back to Japan, not knowing how the Imperial Cabinet would deal with it, not knowing how His Majesty the Emperor's health was doing, and whether the Emperor really only ate one meal a day!

It seems that I am going to lose weight, but the life of the Chinese Empire is so good, it is difficult to lose weight at all!

I really don't want to die here!

After the telegraph operator sent the telegram, he looked at the ambassador's next instructions!

Connect the phone number of the British Embassy and we transfer to the British Embassy!

。。。。。。

On June 1, 1893, Mobei Iron and Steel Smelting Co., Ltd. was established, and with the successful ignition of the blast furnace, thick black smoke came out of the chimney of the steel mill, and sparks could be seen floating out of the chimney at night.

The establishment of Mobei Iron and Steel Company has made the construction of Mobei Railway have a greater guarantee, the rails can be directly produced in Mobei, which is very close to the origin of raw materials, and the market is mainly in Mobei, which makes Mobei Iron and Steel Plant present a very busy scene, no matter day or night, there are many workers working here.

Now that the industrial population of the empire had reached 20 million, and the population of the cities was expanding in agglomeration, the Nanjing government defined these people working in the cities as the middle class, with the goal of making the vast majority of the citizens of the Chinese empire middle class.

。。。。。。

On June 13, 1893, it was destined to be written in the history of the empire, and on this day, the government newspapers "Jinghua Times", "Nanjing Guardian" and other newspapers reported that the murder of imperial citizens in Japan caused the whole Chinese people to be outraged!

No one organized, the parade began, and many people came to the gate of the Nanjing government!

Shout out! Give me justice! Punish the murderers! and other slogans!

The Nanjing Imperial Capital published the Emperor's Edict of Guilt, and the Prime Minister of the Empire also declared that he was responsible for the matter, and submitted an application for resignation to the Senior Administration Yuan and the Emperor!

The angry masses have a deeper hatred for Japan and Japan!

The impact on the embassy of Japan begins!

Zhao Bingjun had already prepared and protected the Japanese embassy, and the police outside shouted! Be sensible! Be sensible! Protest peacefully!

But the angry crowd was simply uncontrollable, and now many residents have guns, at first, someone fired cold shots at the Japanese embassy from a distance, and then they simply shot in front of the police.

The police guarded around the Japanese embassy, and the protesting crowd protested outside and did not leave, until the third day, because the protesting crowd was really hungry and thirsty, and then the people's mood slowly eased, but the Japanese embassy was about to be renovated.

At the Imperial Council of Japan, Emperor Meiji woke up and found that there was such a big event, and the Chinese Empire was suspected of overreacting to this matter, but now the Chinese Empire is in the first place!

Everything that has been done has maintained the greatest rationality and protected the Japanese embassy, although there is no one in the Japanese embassy, but the impression given to the international community is that the imperial government of China is a very magnanimous and just government, and now it depends on what you Japan does!

Now the problem is in front of the Japanese government, and Ito's hair is gray again. He immediately sent a telegram to Li Hongzhang, hoping that Li Hongzhang, an old friend, could help Japan in distress, but Ito Hirobumi's telegram was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no reply at all.

His Majesty Wang Fengyi is now sitting in Shanghai, and after receiving Tang Shaoyi's order, he immediately sent a commissioner to Japan to deal with the matter, but the time was too tight, and the matter had escalated to the national level, so the foreign ministers of the two countries had a direct dialogue!

Wang Feng's majesty sent a telegram to Mutsu Zongguang; "It's happening in your Japan, so what should you do?"

The Japanese government embodies the administrative efficiency that is rare in a government, the three samurai were all arrested, and the judges, prosecutors, and death execution officers on the scene quickly completed all the legal procedures, and in less than three hours, they sentenced the three directly involved ronin samurai to death. Others are sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment!

When the three people who were sentenced to death learned of the execution, they all started to scream, not that they thought that the death penalty was wrong, they were seeking the consent of the judge, and they wanted to end their lives by sacrificial suicide by samurai!

The Japanese cabinet government, afraid of complications, did not agree to their demands, and at the first time, three people were hanged!

After Wang Fengma learned of this situation, he said; "What Japan is doing today is very similar to Goujian, the king of Yue!"

Wang Fengmajesty talked about sending a report to Japan, telling them that Huaxia was not satisfied with such a result, and what we wanted was the culprit! Otherwise, we'll see you at the International Tribunal! ”

Mutsu Munemitsu was going mad, and he spoke in a somewhat trembling voice at the cabinet meeting; "Three have already been killed, reparations, rebuilding the firm, and apologizing to the international community, this is already the biggest concession that Japan can make!"

The telegram sent by the Japanese Government to the capital of Nanjing, China, said that Japan's greatest concession could only go so far.

The telegram sent by His Majesty Wang Feng to Japan said; "Anywhere! In any country! Any nation! A person makes a mistake, no matter how great his credit is! No matter how old his qualifications are! No matter how hard his backstage is! No matter how high his knighthood is!

There is a price to be paid for everything, and there are no exceptions.

And it is impossible for him to be pardoned by the Emperor of the Chinese Empire, so he must die!

You know who I'm talking about! ”

At this time, all walks of life in Japan, from the private sector to the government, students, and other social strata began to apologize, and almost the whole country was condemning the executed ronin, all of whom were the fault of these stupid ronin.

The Emperor of Japan issued an edict, especially condemning his own imperial uncle who was Prince Hakuhisa, but he could only condemn it!

No one dared to condemn this imperial prince, let alone put him on trial, but now the Huaxia Empire has made it clear that this prince must be punished!

On the third day after the death of those ronins, Prince Gong Neng Baijiu, who was supposed to die in Taiwan, committed suicide by seppuku in his own home!

He's got what the ronins don't get!

。。。。。。

The people surrounding the Japanese consulate in Nanjing have dispersed, and this turmoil has made the Nanjing government feel the power of the people. Huaxia named the event "Antique Case!" ”

Everything became calm after the death of four people in Japan.

The Senior Council rejected Tang Shaoyi's request to resign, and at the same time officially issued a notice, and the enlarged meeting of the Senior Council was about to begin!

。。。。。。。

After this incident, the Japanese emperor once again convened the Imperial Council, and Ito Hirobumi drafted a new financial plan to once again increase military spending.

The emperor looked at this plan and increased the fiscal expenditure by 5% to the military, which means that Japan will further reduce its spending on civilian industry and civilian economy, and the Japanese people will have a more difficult life.

But for the sake of the empire's tomorrow, for the rise of the empire, Japan has blocked everything, and there is no way back!

Japan has once again passed a bill on military spending in the Diet!

Seven merchant ships of the same tonnage as the Saikyo Maru were converted into warships, and these merchant ships, which were originally intended to transport goods, were equipped with cannons and sailed with Japanese sailors for training.

At the same time, Japan also began large-scale conscription in the army, and the field division was expanded to 20, and the field division was equipped with the latest weapons, many of which were imported from the Chinese Empire, especially the lion rifle, which also became the standard equipment of the Japanese infantry.

The Japanese army also wanted to deploy the wolf submachine gun, but this submachine gun was too wasteful of bullets, so there was no large-scale production, but the grenadier and infantry guns were copied by a large number of Chinese weapons and produced in large quantities.

The Japanese government and the Japanese emperor have turned the whole of Japan into a fully militarized organization! Almost all resources are spent on the military!

。。。。。。。

The Nanjing government demanded compensation from Ito Hirobumi every day, and Ito once again pleaded with Li Hongzhang, and this time his telegram was answered, with only four words: "Love can't help!" ”

Ito Hirobumi put the telegram on the table with his thinning hand, the current Emperor Meiji really just ate a meal, and he, the prime minister, was like the emperor, and the people of Japan were almost hungry.

。。。。。。

Li Hongzhan looked at the thick telegram sent by Ito Hirobumi, and felt very unbearable, but he didn't have any way, and said to the telegraph operator in front of him; "Burn all these telegrams!"

A staff officer in a major's uniform spoke; "Report Marshal! These telegrams, according to the regulations, must be archived in their entirety and cannot be destroyed in order to be consulted! ”

Li Hongzhang's heart seemed to have knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and these young officers touched him very much. There is an indescribable smell in everyone's body, this kind of taste Li Hongzhang has never encountered before, what makes them so bold that they can not only obey the orders of their superiors, but also not take their superiors in their eyes!

But Li Hongzhang has no time to think about these things, and now he knows very well that Japan is only obedient on the surface, but in fact, it must be a wolf ambition in his heart, and he will definitely not give up!

Li Hongzhang and Yuan Shikai and the army staff began to publicize the importance of army building throughout the country, hoping to increase military spending at this enlarged meeting of the Senior Administrative Yuan.

。。。。。。

The enlarged meeting of the Imperial Council was held as scheduled, Tang Shaoyi was responsible for presiding over it, and now there is no president of the Imperial Council, so it is difficult to imagine how the highest body of the empire operates, and there are only a few committees that operate the relevant functions of the Yuan.

Originally, Tang Shaoyi hoped to arrange for the chief officials and representatives of the army, navy, and government education, railway, and economic departments to give their own speeches to add a little weight to the passage of the tax increase plan!

But I didn't expect that these members of the Senior Council didn't give him face as the prime minister at all, and they began to raise their own issues first!

Limit imperial power!

Limit the government!

Limit the army!

Raise the social status of merchants!

In July 1893 in Nanjing, known as the capital of the four major furnaces in China, it is not to say, there is no air conditioning at this time, the whole parliament because of the members of the Senate attended the meeting with a total of more than 300 people, and there are many delegates coming one after another, making the whole hall very stuffy!

The process of bargaining is extremely difficult! Every time we can't talk about it, the meeting is terminated several times and continued several times!

A result of the discussion was reached, and the meeting left some questions to be resolved later, and the first question to be passed was!

As for the Nanjing government's increase in taxes, the Information Administration Yuan did not agree to it, but agreed to the Nanjing government to issue a total of 200 million dragon yuan of 30-year "government long-term construction bonds!" ”

Then the command of the army can no longer be controlled by the emperor, and the imperial military council must be established to be responsible for the daily management of the imperial army and the command in wartime. But on the issue of deciding to start a war, it is up to the Senate to decide!

The Emperor of the Chinese Empire is only the supreme commander in name, and does not have the right to directly command the army!

A special legislative committee has been set up under the Information Administration Yuan to be responsible for the formulation and revision of laws nationwide!

On the last day, he issued the most important decree for the Chinese Empire, which brought the Chinese Empire to the highest peak in history, and also made the Chinese Empire fall to the last thing he wanted to see!

This heavenly decree is; "Anyone who is forbidden by the law can do it!"

。。。。。。

Seeing the battleship Xuanwu being towed away, Ding Ruchang's heart was very uncomfortable, this was a battleship of the same tonnage model as the Qinglong battleship, but the Senior Administration Yuan felt that it was too expensive, so he refused to continue to build.

A compromise was reached between the Senate and the Navy, which kept the total tonnage of all warships now equipped with weapons unchanged, and when there was no war, the Imperial Navy would remain at this size, and as many tonnage warships were decommissioned, as many tonnage warships would be built.

Originally, Ding Ruchang explained that the escort mission of the navy was very important, but he did not expect that those capitalists would not buy it at all, and the Chinese merchant ships now sailing on the sea. Almost all of the crew is fully armed.

Unless they encounter a warship of that country and there is a head-on conflict, any pirate who is free with a few small sampans will still be robbed. These merchant ships of the Chinese Empire will not be taken into account at all.

Therefore, the navy has maintained these warships for now, but there are also advantages, that is, the military expenses of the navy will be guaranteed in the future, and there is no need to worry about running out of money to buy shells, and the empire's arsenal will give priority to ensuring the military needs of its own navy.

Ding Ruchang watched the battleship Xuanwu, which was equipped with dual power, sail out of the harbor, and the battleship Xuanwu was bought by Zhirui, and the huge hull would be converted into a container and tanker dual-purpose ship. Such a huge ship was the largest merchant ship in the world at that time.

The battleship Xuanwu was renamed the "Zhifu" merchant ship, which has a rustic name. It was full of copper smell, which made Ding Ruchang dare not think, what is this Zhirui going to do, and he dares to buy such a battleship, Uncle Guo! Isn't that great!

The whistle of the "Fortune" sounded again, and the other ships tried to avoid his channel, but the waves behind the "Fortune" caused the other merchant ships to swing with the waves.

The "Fortune" will go north to the terminals of Tianjin and Dalian, which are already full of containers. The goods produced here will be transported by this giant ship to the Middle East, and then from the Middle East to bring back crude oil to China! Every journey is a journey of violence.

The battleship Xuanwu disappeared in Ding Ruchang's eyes like this!

。。。。。。

Wang Fengzao, as the minister of the Chinese Empire to Japan, in this "antique case! At the same time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Beijing both expressed their awards, making Wang Fengzao a hero for a while. But at this time, Wang Fengzao was not happy at all!

In the past, only some people were clamoring for secession from Asia and moving closer to Europe, despising and blaming the Chinese Empire for its political chaos and economic chaos, reaching the point of collapse and happiness, and Japan was a very civilized representative of the Asian order.

Dissatisfied with China's geographical advantages and abundant natural resources, Japan is now full of assumptions about the direction and height that Japan will lead Asia to what direction and what heights it will reach if it gets the resources of the Chinese Empire.

In a word, Japan will definitely do better than the Chinese Empire, their Meiji Emperor will definitely be able to defeat the little Guangxu Emperor, and Ito Hirobumi, the helmsman of the Japanese government, is even a genius, and even Li Hongzhang has expressed his appreciation for Ito Hirobumi many times.

On the other hand, Tang Shaoyi, the premier of the Chinese Imperial Government, seems to have no assertiveness and no distinctive personality, and in terms of economic and military construction, Japan seems to have a kind of discipline and rules everywhere.

In the eyes of the current Japanese, although the Chinese Empire is very tall, it is also seriously overweight. But he is very weak in nature, like an obese old man who has suffered a stroke, and the people of the Chinese Empire are not disciplined at all. There is no combat power at all, they are just a group of small businessmen who only calculate their own small interests and refuse to suffer a little loss!

Although Japan is small, the quality of the Japanese people is noble, and every citizen will give up himself for the sake of the country's goals, and no Japanese citizen is like a screw on a warship, standing at his post without complaint, even if he gets nothing, even a full mouthful. The Japanese starved and stuck to their posts until the moment of starvation.

There is a belief in the belief that there is a sunset empire in the west of Japan, and that there will be a war between the two empires, and that Japan will definitely win, and that the war will come soon, but it is not yet known how it began.

Wang Fengma drank a large glass of sake!

At this time, a man in a kimono opposite him filled Wang Fengma's wine glass!

The man asked; "Feng Majun! Is there really no way to mitigate it? ”

The man was a Japanese named Kiyoo Takahashi. He didn't want the two to go to war, because he also had Chinese blood, and the two adjacent empires, after how many years, had come to the door of modernization, and this time there was still no way to avoid colliding together!

Wang Fengma said; "I don't want to see the two go to war, but things are irreversible, and the most worrying thing is that the Huaxia Empire doesn't seem to be ready to fight at all!

Disarmament, reduction of military spending, and the purchase of warships that have not yet been built! ”

History is so ruthless!

With the real power of the Zi Zheng Yuan, a power organ composed of capitalists, they made a decision as stupid as Cixi in order to reduce military spending, and it was an absolutely wrong decision not to expand the navy, at least in the eyes of the time!
