Chapter 219: Advancing by Waterway (I)
The ministers in the Taihe Hall were speechless for a while, they didn't expect Xu Tong to be so insidious and cunning, but this is also Xu Tong for the enemy, in fact, Xu Tong is also quite good for his own hot spots, but that is useless. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Emperor Guangxu looked at everyone and no one spoke, and said after a pause, "What, is this anti-thief Li Zhongju very powerful?" ”
Zhou Dingfeng, the head of the household, stood up and said, "Long live the Lord Qi, the anti-thief Li Zhongju is indeed very powerful, but our Qing Dynasty must be even more powerful than him, so Long Live Lord doesn't have to worry about it at all." ”
Emperor Guangxu nodded, and at the same time Emperor Guangxu asked, "I heard that uprisings have also broken out in Shaanxi, Gansu, Henan, Shandong and other places, I don't know how these places are handled now?" ”
Zhou Dingfeng, the head of the household department, immediately said without hesitation, "Long live the lord, the rebel army in these places is not mentioned at all compared to the anti-thief Li Zhongju, please rest assured, the officials in various places will definitely do their best to deal with it, and will never disgrace our Qing Dynasty." ”
Emperor Guangxu nodded thoughtfully, and at the same time the Empress Dowager Cixi coughed twice, and everyone also understood what the Empress Dowager Cixi meant, and then the ministers immediately withdrew from the Taihe Palace.
Everyone withdrew from the Taihe Palace, and many ministers immediately gathered on Prince Gong's side, they wanted to hear it, what is the combat effectiveness of the new army, can it ensure everyone's safety, if not, I'm afraid they will consider the back road, and will never hang themselves on a road, as for the back road, I'm afraid they have their own plans, and they won't say anything to each other, which has little to do with others, after all, the road is their own choice.
Prince Gong looked at the enthusiasm of his colleagues, of course he was embarrassed to refuse, "The 30,000 new troops trained by this king are the strongest warriors selected from near the capital, they are very strong in spirit and strength, they are a group of warriors who are not afraid of death, this king believes that they can fight in the Zhenwu army." ”
Everyone listened to Prince Gong say this, in fact, everyone already knew in their hearts, in fact, Prince Gong Yixin was not very sure, and there would be no great certainty in whose hands this matter would be handed over, after all, Li Zhongju's Zhenwu army could defeat the British army, and it was no longer something they could figure out at will.
A large part of the people secretly decided that after returning home, they must start secretly transferring assets, and will never be buried with the Qing court, the current Qing officials can be said to have experienced a lot of things, have done a lot of things that have lost power and humiliated the country, there are not many people who really have moderation, surrender and run away or something, for them, even if it is commonplace, I am afraid it is not too much, there is not much loyalty in their hearts, as for why they are still big officials, it is entirely because this can appear superior, is a superior person.
When Li Zhongju ordered the Zhenwu army to assemble at the northernmost point of Nanchang Mansion in Jiangxi Province, he also ordered Li Xiang to lead the navy north to destroy or force the Manchu Beiyang fleet.
Although the Beiyang Fleet at this time was not at the same level as Li Zhongju's Huaxia Fleet, Li Zhongju did not allow such an army to exist forever, and now the time is ripe for the problem to be solved.
After Li Xiang received the order, he immediately set up the navy, except for the two ironclad ships and a few clippers left behind, the rest of the warships were all sailing towards the north. Li Xiang already knew Li Zhongju's great determination, and it seemed that Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, would definitely exterminate the Qing court this time, and would never allow the Qing court to continue to plague the Chinese nation.
At the same time, Li Zhongju sent a letter to the governors, governors, and even governors of the central and western provinces of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, demanding that they surrender to him.
After many governors received the handwritten letter from Li Zhongju, they were no longer calm, and even at a loss, but they could only calm down and think carefully, whether to choose to surrender to Li Zhongju, after all, they outsiders can also see the current situation, Zhennan King Li Zhongju and Zhenwu Army are really too strong, so strong that many people are afraid and uneasy, no matter how to say that Zhennan King Li Zhongju is still very good as a whole, and everything will consider the interests of the entire nation, at this point, Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, was much stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Many officials have begun to weigh the pros and cons, especially the governors of Shaanxi and Gansu, but they know that Li Zhongju can divide his troops into three ways and easily break through the four provinces, which is not a joke, it can only show that Li Zhongju has something extraordinary, since Li Zhongju has said so, and they really do not have the strength to confront Li Zhongju, so it has become a good choice for them to surrender to Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, so that they can keep some of their interests, which is already quite good.
On May 23, 1889, the three divisions of the Zhenwu Army gathered in the northernmost part of Nanchang Prefecture, at this moment Li Zhongju and others were full of spirit, and the three divisions of the Zhenwu Army and the independent brigade totaled 80,000 troops, standing there majestically, giving people an extremely heavy atmosphere, which was of course very good.
Li Ran, Song Mingren, Wang Jie, Wang Rui and others looked at the army of such a mansion, and they also had a sense of pride and ambition in their hearts, in their eyes, all this passed quickly, and it can even be said that no one would have thought that they would follow Li Zhongju and achieve such great achievements in such a short period of time, each of them has already achieved fame at this time, and has been recognized by many ordinary people, and each of them is very happy in their hearts, and in their eyes, all this is very worthwhile. If they were given a chance, they would not hesitate to choose to continue this path, in their eyes, only following Li Zhongju was their best choice, and no one could stop them.
Li Zhongju looked at the generals under his command, "Everyone, we have been able to get to this point today entirely because we have always implemented the policy of benefiting the people and at the same time aimed at the overall interests of the Chinese nation, so we have achieved such great achievements, otherwise, I am afraid we will achieve nothing." ”
Several people also nodded, in their eyes, what Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, said was not wrong at all, the reason why Li Zhongju and Zhenwujun have been able to flourish all the time is not because they are all working hard for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and dedicating their strength, and now they have also influenced a large part of the people, I believe that with the passage of time, the influence of Zhenwujun and Zhennan King Li Zhongju is increasing.
Li Zhongju and Li Ran looked at each other and smiled, they were full of confidence in pointing directly at Beijing City this time. (To be continued.) )
