Chapter 169: Panic in the Qing Court (I)

Zhang Zhidong got the news, Xiaomei also received the news, Xiaomei received the news without the slightest surprise. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn Xiaomei's eyes, the Huaxia Navy is victorious, this is normal, if it is defeated, it is not normal.

Others don't know the details of the Huaxia Navy, don't Xiaomei know yet, you must know that it is a high-quality battleship produced by the battleship system, and the ironclad ship is also accompanied by various robots that are proficient in all the operations of the battleship.

After Wang Wu got the news, he exhaled a long breath, but he knew that Britain was known as the "empire on which the sun never sets" and had the most powerful navy in the world, and in recent years, Britain had risen to the highest position in the world.

Wang Wu has been full of great worry after Li Zhongju left, although Xiaomei has been comforting Wang Wu, but it is useless, fortunately, today Wang Wu finally got the accurate news, the Huaxia Navy defeated the British fleet, this is a news that makes Wang Wu feel at ease.

But for people from all walks of life in Guangzhou, this is encouraging news, many people heard that the Huaxia Navy had driven out the British fleet, all of them burst into tears, and their inner excitement could no longer be described in words.

People's excitement, people's joyful laughter, deeply attracted the surrounding people, a person's mood can affect the mood of the surrounding people, and the mood of the surrounding people can affect some people, and eventually countless people will be attracted by this victory, they will all feel proud and proud.

In an alley in Guangzhou City, in that small courtyard, there were six relatively strong middle-aged people sitting at this time, all of them were dumbfounded, they did not expect that Li Zhongju would win again and defeat the British army again.

And this time it is still the navy that Britain is most proud of, and the strongest navy of the "empire on which the sun never sets" was defeated by the thief Li Zhongju, which is a helpless thing.

They also all know that Li Zhongju's reputation in Huaxia will definitely multiply through this matter. This is very bad for them, but they can only pass the news on to them.

Li Zhongju led his army to rest in Hong Kong for a day, and at the same time, he had to make proper arrangements for the soldiers who lost their lives in this naval battle, and he also had to do a good job of pacifying some of the wounded and disabled soldiers.

Then Li Zhongju led the independent regiment towards Guangzhou City, this time Li Zhongju led the independent regiment, in fact, it was also to deal with the British army, but this time the British army could only take the ship to watch. They did not have a chance to land at all, so the independent regiment did not enter the battle.

When Li Zhongju returned to Guangzhou, he was warmly welcomed by many ordinary people and people from all walks of life, and Li Zhongju also waved his hand to the crowd.

Then Li Zhongju returned to the palace, looking at Wang Wu, who was a little emaciated, he was a little ashamed in his heart, and felt a little sorry for Wang Wu, but what can be done about this?

Wang Wu's voice trembled, "Zhongju, are you back?" ”

Li Zhongju nodded, "En! After speaking, Li Zhongju hugged Wang Wu and hugged her tightly, this hug was dozens of minutes, and neither of them felt that time was passing, this may be a glance for ten thousand years.

……

In the blink of an eye, a day has passed, and the people of Guangzhou City are still lingering about the return of King Zhennan yesterday, the scene of thousands of empty alleys, and the worship of King Zhennan has also reached a higher level.

In the city of Ji'an Mansion in Jiangxi Province, Prince Gong Yixin, Liangjiang Governor Zeng Guoquan and Huguang Governor Zhang Shuo looked at each other, and their expressions were extremely exciting, which made people unbearable to look at them.

Because they had received reliable news ten minutes ago that Li Zhongju had a navy, and that he had at least six battleships and more than a dozen ironclad ships. The most surprising thing was that Li Zhongju's navy defeated the British armada, the "empire on which the sun never sets".

After a while, it was Zhang Shuo, the governor of Hu Guang, who broke the peace, "Lord Wang, Lord Zeng, I didn't expect Li Zhongju to build a huge and powerful navy, which is a much greater threat to us!" ”

Zeng Guoquan continued, "Now it's just a legend about that naval battle, but it's this legend that makes people feel incredible and incomprehensible. Britain has not been defeated at sea in recent years. This time, he was taught a hard lesson by Li Zhongju, and I am afraid that in the future, he will gather a larger fleet to seek revenge in the East. ”

Prince Gong shook his head, "Let's not talk about Britain and Li Zhongju for the time being, you think that with Li Zhongju's navy, you can defeat Britain, so if he leads the navy north, what should we do?" Can't he be allowed to run rampant? ”

Prince Gong Yixin immediately stood up, "This king is ready to return to Jingshi immediately, and the matter here will be left to you to take full responsibility." ”

Prince Gong Yixin left after speaking, and did not look back, he was also anxious at this time, if Li Zhongju was really hot-headed and directly mobilized the navy to attack Tianjin, or even Jingshi, then how could he still be in the south.

Therefore, Prince Gong Yixin decided to rush back to the capital as quickly as possible, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, even if this possibility is very low, but Prince Gong Yixin still has to return to Beijing.

Prince Gong Yixin led hundreds of the most elite guards and rushed all the way to Jingshi.

Seven days later, news of the defeat of the British fleet by Prince Gong Yixin and Li Zhongju's navy arrived in Beijing at about the same time.

People sighed one after another, Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, was really good, he was able to defeat the British fleet, which was something that people couldn't think of before, but in Li Zhongju's hands, it was easily realized.

Prince Gong Yixin returned to the palace, packed up and immediately prepared to enter Bauhinia City, Prince Gong Yixin walked into Bauhinia City with a heavy heart.

Yi Xin inquired with a eunuch and found that at this time, in the Taihe Palace, a court meeting was being held. Prince Gong Yixin immediately let people report.

The Empress Dowager Cixi was sitting in the main hall, listening to the discussion of Li Zhongju's large British fleet, and many ministers felt that the news was wrong, and they had not heard that Li Zhongju owned ships. Moreover, the Beiyang Fleet was no match for the British fleet, let alone how much a villager who came out of the mountains could build a powerful warship.

Xu Tong, the secretary of the ministry, even packed the ticket and said, "Lafayette, ministers, I dare to guarantee that this news must be misinformation, and there is no such thing at all." Li Zhongju has no warships, no resources, and no professionals, so where did he build the navy. We can only feed a few ships in the central Qing Dynasty. ”

The rest of the ministers also nodded, and they almost all had the same meaning as Xu Tong, the secretary of the ministry.

The Empress Dowager Cixi continued to squint, looking like she had nothing to do with herself, very leisurely, Emperor Guangxu wanted to speak several times, looked at Lafayette's appearance, and swallowed all the words back. (To be continued.) )
