Chapter 12: The Rise of the Tibetans
Chapter 12: The Rise of the Tibetan People
Chen Cheng often told people that our main task now is to cultivate our internal strength, and everything will be said after the completion of the five-year plan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But the world doesn't revolve around him, even if he has arranged countless back-ups, and has all kinds of unscientific black technology, after all, he still can't do it to the point where he can correct the world just by thinking.
He and Lin Mengchu moved the base camp to Taiyuan, and at the same time established Qingdao as a free/from/capital/city in Shandong, and also opened a new shipyard.
However, the current mainstream of this world is not peace and development, but war full of iron and blood. Northeast China, Mobei, Xinjiang, and Russia are heading towards China from three directions. The Russian army in the northeast was pinned down by the Japanese, and the Russians in Mobei had the northwest town guard to confront them, and the Russians made no progress in both places.
The situation is different in Xinjiang, where Russia, although contemptuously called impoverished imperialism by Europeans, has no pressure to crush the feudal and slave states of Central Asia. Well, having said that, those nomads in Central Asia and the Mujahideen in Afghanistan still have the fighting power, and they once beat the British and Russians to the head.
But those were tactical victories at best, as the Russians and the British had been expanding their sphere of influence in Central Asia for centuries. Just when the Japanese wanted to make a big news in Tohoku, the British were not idle.
Although the British, who had been engaged in the storm on the European continent for hundreds of years, had already formulated a strategy of global contraction after the Boer War, they decided to take Tibet into their pockets and exist as a guarantee for India's flank in order to defend India, the jewel in the crown of the Empress.
In another history, the British relied on their usual tactics to attack Tibet several times. Tibet's Lai Da Living Buddha still resisted with great strength at first, and did not surrender when he could not fight, but asked the Qing government and the Russians for assistance.
It's just that at that time the Qing Dynasty was already a waste material, and the Russians obviously did not want to fight the British in a place like Tibet. After resisting for several years, the Living Buddha Laida and the Tibetan slave owners he represented had to kneel before the British.
In this world, the British still use the same trick. Thousands of British soldiers rushed to the snow-capped mountain/lion/son/country with the same number of mercenaries, and then they were strongly watched by a group of lamas who had awakened their divine powers.
In that part of Tibet, there were no traffic pits, and there was altitude sickness, so the British army did not bring too many heavy weapons, and only a few heavy machine guns and a few infantry guns could provide fire support to the infantry on the front line.
Awakened to divine power, or magic power, the Force and the like, the Great Lama Raida laid down a large array of mandalas, and then the apologetic warriors bathed in the light of the Buddha rushed into the British line, relying on the white soldiers to defeat the British and the two dogs they brought.
It was as if it were a reenactment of the war in Afghanistan, with thousands of British troops, doctors, priests, cooks, tailors, traders, prostitutes, and ..... and others were almost completely wiped out on the plateau. In the end, only a few soldiers escaped, and the rest were either killed or captured.
The victorious Lama Laida was overjoyed and sacrificed all the more than 2,000 people he had captured to their gods. It is said that after that bloody sacrifice, the magic power of the Great Lama Laida was much more exquisite.
When he got this information, Rao was stunned for a few seconds with Chen Cheng's knowledge. Briton..... Just hit the streets? He never thought anything like this would happen.
In order to understand the details of the battle, he specially sent a number of liaison personnel to the local first-level intelligence under the guise of arms deals. Although the Tibetans won a great victory this time, they were also deeply impressed by the excellent guns and the power of the British.
In the aftermath of the battle, Lama Raida spread the Buddha's brilliance to his surroundings while shopping for modern arms. Naturally, the British will not sell weapons to them, the Russians are poor to death, and the corruption is worse than that of the Manchus, where is there any good arms to sell to the Tibetans?
After calculating and calculating, I finally found Longcheng (Taiyuan). At this time, Chen Cheng was vigorously promoting a large number of rifles produced by his black technology such as batch production technology, and he hit it off with the Tibetan people.
In any case, the impact of the Tubo people's comeback is almost as far-reaching as the battle in Beijing a few years ago. The victory of the Tibetans was even more straightforward, and in the end they did not reconcile with the British, but sacrificed all the captives with blood, so that Tibetan Buddhism began to spread to the surrounding India, Central Asia, Mongolia and other places.
Just as Chen Cheng was waiting for the details of the battle between Tubo and the British, the British came to the door.
"Your Excellency! The British Empire strongly opposes your actions! As soon as he came up, the British minister Zhu Erdian said solemnly: "The empire will reserve all rights to act!" ”
Chen Cheng was a little puzzled, he looked at the dark clouds outside, a storm was coming. He knocked on the table and said in a straight voice: "Speak human words!" ”
The translator beside Zhu Erdian looked at Chen Cheng in surprise, hesitating and wondering whether to translate this sentence directly. Zhu Erdian is a China expert, no matter what his personality and force field is, this is a figure who loves to learn. Not only does he have a good understanding of Chinese officialdom, but he also taught himself Chinese and can speak Beijing fluently.
Therefore, without the need for translation, Zhu Erdian knew what Chen Cheng meant.
"Your Excellency!" Zhu Erdian said in a stiff tone: "Can I think that you are despising the Empire?" ”
"No, how dare I despise the British?" Chen Cheng shook his head and said, "I have always respected powerful people. As the hegemon of today's world, I respect Britain far more than other countries. ”
Zhu Erdian's face softened, he didn't come to quarrel and talk harshly. As a diplomat, the main thing is to serve the interests of the empire, not quarrel and quarrel. As long as it is for the sake of the empire to obtain greater benefits, he himself can also obtain benefits from it by the way, it is a kneeling thing, and they diplomats have also done it.
Chen Cheng ignored the expression on Zhu Erdian's face and continued: "As long as the British army can fight to Taiyuan. (To be continued.) )
