Shanghai, the big tomorrow is here.

Wu Chunqiu, an envoy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who had been ordered to send an envoy to Beijing, had already returned to Shanghai on a fast boat, bringing with him many treasures from the Old Summer Palace and some sensational news.

The matter of excavating the mausoleum of the emperor and queen of the Qing Dynasty, Wu Chunqiu told Zhu Jishi in 1510, including the excavation and sale of the corpses of the ancestors of Emperor Daoguang!

Zhu Jishi listened to Wu Chunqiu's words, he really couldn't cry or laugh, he just wanted to keep some treasures for the country, but he didn't expect that the Manchu Emperor's mausoleum was affected. This Wu Chunqiu is better, in order to prevent the bones of the Manchu emperor from being thrown into the wilderness, he actually bought these corpses......

Throwing away people's ancestral graves is a thing that will make the notoriety soar in China, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom sold these bones to the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it be necessary for the Ming Dynasty to bear this infamy with them? It seems that the protection of cultural relics is really thankless!

But...... Why did the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom dig up the ancestral graves of the Manchu Qing Dynasty while still negotiating peace with Emperor Daoguang? This matter can't contain the fire in the paper, and sooner or later the Manchu Qing side will know the Tao, whether it is Daoguang or Yixin, they will probably treat the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom as a mortal enemy, right?

"Is there any reason to resolve the hatred of the country? The enmity between the Manchus and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was incomprehensible, and it was nothing to have an extra feud of digging the graves of the ancestors. ”

Luo Zenan, a dog-headed military advisor who was still shaking paper fans and pretending to be Zhuge Liang in the winter, didn't think so. He said: "Your Majesty thinks that Emperor Daoguang still has a good move. ”

"Good chess?" Zhu Jishi smiled and looked back at Luo Zenan, "Strategist, do you really believe that Yang Xiuqing will let the Eight Banners out of the customs?" ”

Luo Zenan shook his head: "I don't believe that Daoguang really dares to leave Beijing City, and he can survive in the city for a while." To go out of the city is to die. ”

What kind of person is Luo Zenan? An old fox. How could Yang Xiuqing and Emperor Daoguang's tricks hide from him?

"Your Majesty, Weichen knows that Yang Xiuqing is using a strategy to attack the heart, if the bannermen in the inner city of Beijing do not have the heart to fight to the death, the casualties of the Taiping army can be greatly reduced. From this point of view, this Yang Xiuqing is indeed a rare general! ”

Zhu Jishi smiled bitterly and said in his heart: "I knew that Yang Xiuqing was powerful ten years earlier!" But I didn't expect it to be like this, I knew that Lu Dao should have dug him into his hands. But fortunately, Shi Dakai is still on his side. ”

"But Emperor Daoguang's wishful thinking is not bad...... He must have wanted to take the opportunity of peace talks with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to use a diversion to blame the trouble. Provoke a war between us and the Taiping Army, so as to win time for Prince Gong of Shengjing to regroup. ”

"Divert the blame?" Zhu Jishi was slightly stunned, "Strategist, what do you mean ......?"

"Emperor Daoguang must want to emulate the wisdom of Feng Ting, the commander of the Shangdang County of Korea during the Warring States Period, and use the land of Henan as bait to lure us into the bait."

"The land of Henan?" Zhu Jishi took a breath, "Those who have won the Central Plains since ancient times have won the world!" If Daoguang really wants to have such determination, he has indeed made a good move. He frowned and looked at Luo Zenan, "Strategist, how do you say we should deal with it?" The land of Henan. Shall we or not? ”

Henan is the heart of the Central Plains, and since ancient times, there has been a saying that those who win the Central Plains win the world. Delivered to the door of the land of Henan. How could Zhu Ming refuse? However, taking over part of Henan's territory is equivalent to a rupture of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom! After Yang Xiuqing finished fighting Beijing, he must have waved his army south to fight Zhu Ming in the Central Plains - this is a big battle that determines the ownership of the world, is Zhu Ming sure of victory?

……

Hearing this question, the Ming Dynasty ministers and the generals of the Ming army who followed Zhu Jishi to Shanghai all had solemn expressions, and it seemed that no one was sure of victory.

"Your Majesty, we have only fought one battle with the Taiping Army in Hunan, if the strength of the Taiping Army's foreign gun team is still similar to that time, it is not a big problem."

The first to answer this question was Su Yuniang, but her eyebrows were still frowning. The current Taiping Army may not be comparable to a year ago. They have not fought hard battles all the way north, and they have shown signs of getting stronger and stronger.

"And the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not been destroyed, and our Han heroes will kill each other, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" Su Yuniang then put forward a reason for opposition. "If you give the Manchu Qing a chance to breathe, I'm afraid that I will regret it in the future!"

Now on Zhu Ming's side, the ones who hate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom more are the Xianghu sect doctors led by Zuo Zongtang and Luo Zenan - their hometown has caused the Taiping army a lot of harm. And the Heaven and Earth Society faction to which Su Yuniang belonged was sympathetic to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. If it was peaceful for Zhu Ming after the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it would be just a matter of everyone knowing the truth that there are no two masters in this country, but now, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not died! I also want to retreat to the outside of the gate to recuperate, in order to make a comeback in the future!

"The Manchus have been defeated to this extent, where is the future?" As soon as Luo Zenan said this, Zuo Zongtang's brows furrowed, this is wrong!

"Isn't the Manchu Qing a Jurchen? The Jin Dynasty is their ancestor, and it was not revived after being destroyed by the Mongols for hundreds of years? I think we need to get rid of the evil! ”

Li Hongzhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, interjected at this time, obviously on Su Yuniang's side. Their Li family in Hefei is now a dignitary, but their hearts are always empty. After all, they are not old ministers who started a business with Zhu Jishi...... doesn't have the power of the Xianghu faction, who knows when the Shangshu of Lu Dao can do it? However, this Li Hongzhang has an advantage that ordinary scholars and doctors do not have, he can get along with a group of rough people, and the Huai army in history does not use scholars very much, and most of them are warriors in Huaishang. Therefore, Li Hongzhang and the lords of the Heaven and Earth Society system get along very well, and it seems that they want to be backed by this vote.

Zhu Jishi nodded silently, he knew that Su Yuniang's views were basically the same as those of the Heaven and Earth Society system. Now Zhu Ming's civil officials are led by the Xianghu faction - they have learned practical knowledge that has been applied to the world, and they can indeed do things, and they are not pedantic. However, the officers are brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society, including Zheng Hong, Han Si, Su Yuniang, Ren Yijiang, Huang Zhisheng, Liu Jiong, Luo Outline and other generals, all of whom have the background of the Heaven and Earth Society. Zhu Jishi can't help but consider the "simple feelings" of these big bosses. These people are extremely anti-Qing and anti-Qing.

But now the wisdom shown by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom also made Zhu Jishi dare not take it lightly...... Moreover, the political significance of building the capital of Beijing and driving the Manchu forces outside the border is completely different from the significance of building the capital of Nanjing in history. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has already shown signs of settling the world, but they can't let them take the Central Plains region safely and securely.

"Lin Muweng is here in the Central Plains, and it is no longer something that Emperor Daoguang can influence with a holy decree." Zuo Zongtang said.

He naturally knew what the "big generals" thought, he paused and said: "The king, the ministers also feel that the Manchu Qing must be cut down and eradicated, and this banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty cannot be put down no matter what. Now Beijing will be taken by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and they will account for at least half of the great work of destroying the Manchu Dynasty, and the remaining Manchurian nest cannot be taken by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in any case. The land outside this pass is fertile and fertile. If the Northern Taiping Heavenly Kingdom takes it, Yang Xiuqing will not need to confiscate the land of the gentry of the Central Plains......"

"Outside the border?" Zhu Jishi frowned, "The affairs in the Ming Dynasty have not been straightened out yet, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty has already asked Russia for help." ”

Zuo Zongtang smiled and said: "Then we should send troops to Manchuria as soon as possible, but we can't let the Russian soldiers gain a firm foothold in Manchuria...... Of course, how this battle is fought must be carefully considered. The style of play like the decisive battle in Huaxian County will definitely not work, and according to the subordinates, we must follow the path of setting up a hard village and fighting a dumb battle, and run Manchuria steadily and steadily. ”

In fact, the operation of steadily running Manchuria has already begun. A few days ago, news came from the Vladivostok side that the advance team of the Manchurian Expeditionary Force landed in Vladivostok in early December last year and built a small fortress at the southernmost tip of the Vladivostok Peninsula (the name of Shida was later known as the Amursky Peninsula).

In addition, the fleet of the North Korean charter trading company also fought with the North Korean sailors not long ago, and naturally won a complete victory. Ganghwa Island, which was close to Seoul, the capital of North Korea, was also seized as a base for advance, but the Korean court did not give in, but the troops of Kim Zuo-geun were deployed on the west coast of the Korean Peninsula on the other side of Ganghwa Island, preparing to resist the invasion of the "Myeongko".
