The battle between the two Qing armies in Yunnan was reported in detail by Western countries almost on the same day. In the face of the three countries that the Qing State was most concerned about, and also the three countries that knew the most, they made a comprehensive assessment of the combat strength, tactics, military uniforms and equipment of the Free Army, and urgently convened a summit meeting on the same day.

The Germans were known for their rigor, and when they received the telegram of the military attache stationed in Yunnan in the Qing Dynasty, they immediately attracted great attention, and the telegram at this time was very expensive, and it was priced according to the word, and each word of the transoceanic telegram was equivalent to more than 30 marks.

Bernhard von Bülllow received this telegram and immediately thought of Li Yi, yes, it was him, he still remembered his high-minded talk at Prince William's suburban estate two years ago, and he had a premonition that the Qing Kingdom was going to change, and sure enough, the army strength of the Qing Kingdom was so strong in just two years.

When he handed in the message, Beagle was attentive, and he printed a copy of the message in its original language. Because he knew that Prime Minister Bismarck was a bit conservative, and Li Yi's remarks on his visit to Germany last time made him very indignant, if it weren't for Prince William, he would have sent someone directly to silence Li Yi.

Sure enough, after Bismarck received the telegram, he saw that there was a detailed record of the uniform hairstyle of the Free Army, and he immediately became angry and scolded the military attache for wasting the country's money, so he threw the telegram aside at that time.

Another telegram content, Bilow directly handed over to Moltke Jr., Moltke's uncle Moltke Sr. is the chief of staff of the German Army, and Moltke's admiration for Li Yi has reached an unswerving level, and in the past few years, Moltke Jr. has talked about Li Yi's military theory the most, just a month ago, he persuaded Moltke Sr. that the German Army sent 300 soldiers to study in Guangzhou, led by Erich von Ludendorff, although Ludendorff was only 22 years old, but he was a rising star in the German Army. And his admiration for Li Yi is no less than that of Moltke.

The old Moltke is older, although he still holds the position of chief of staff of the army, but due to physical reasons, he is mostly resting at home, and he has gradually handed over army affairs to Alfred von Schlieffen to take care of, although the current Kaiser has just ascended the throne, but his health is very bad, the next crown prince has chosen Wilhelm, so the whole German people know that the era of Wilhelm II is coming, and Alfred von Schlieffen is the next chief of staff of the German army he designated.

Originally, according to the trend of history, Moltke Sr.'s successor was Count Alfred von Waldsee, but the butterfly effect still showed some appearance, and Wilhelm II was surprised by Li Yi's original sentence - yes! My greatest buddy! And he also became interested in the Great Qing Kingdom.

William still remembers how confident Li Yi was when he said this, and a few years ago he was able to position himself as a person with the same height as himself, and that was by no means a simple character. Therefore, Wilhelm II attached great importance to the soldiers who attended the banquet, and slowly developed them into his own lineage. Last month, 300 officers were sent to study in the Qing Dynasty, and it was he who volunteered to add Ludendorff to it.

"I have to admit that the new army of the Qing army is equipped with more advanced weapons and equipment than our army." Schlieffen, deputy chief of staff of the German Army, said solemnly: "Chief Moltke asked us to carefully study the content of this telegram, and more detailed information will be sent from the Qing State one after another, so we must set up a military reform research office to make our German Army strong quickly!" ”

"Ahem-" A middle-aged man who was neatly dressed and looked very gentlemanly suddenly interjected: "I am Prince William's adjutant, I came with the prince's message this time, our partners of the Qing Kingdom have already walked ahead of us, we must catch up and surpass them!" ”

The adjutant did not explain who the partner was and what he meant. But most of you here know what a partner means and who it represents.

"Gross!" An officer shouted out in shock, although he realized that he had lost his temper, but he didn't care about it, and said loudly: "The description of the Qing soldiers in this telegram, I read a piece of almost the same document last year, camouflage uniforms, helmets, short hair, etc., much more detailed than this. ”

"What? Tell me what's going on? Schlieffen asked eagerly.

"The Chancellery is the Chancellery, and there is a report that has been thrown away in the office of Prime Minister Bismarck, and when Prime Minister Bismarck asked me to throw a ridiculous document in the trash, I had no intention of reading a few pages, and I thought it was worthwhile, so I left him, and I remember that the person who handed in this report was called Ludwig Yan Hawley."

History sometimes likes to joke, a skirmish that took place in Yunnan, thousands of miles away, but Li Yi's biggest enemy, the army sergeant officer Ludwig Yan Hawley, who had been depressed, began his new life and stepped onto the world military stage!

Headquarters of the Army Staff in Paris, France. The Qing-French War has always been regarded as a scar on the French Army, and in the past two years, the French Army has successively replaced new firearms and comprehensively reorganized the Army.

"We are already far behind the Qing Army, not only in terms of weapons and equipment, but also in military thinking, training level, tactical level, and so on. We must have the strength of the Qing Army, and the position of the first army in the world will always belong to our French team! Deputy Army Commander de Fay said impassionedly.

"I don't understand, what are you Army doing? Where do you spend our annual military expenditure of 750 million francs, which is not even stronger than that of a backward colonial country! Speaker Tokak said very dissatisfied.

"We're not going to argue now, we're going to face it! I think our army must be modernized and reformed, and military spending must also be increased! Deputy Chief of Staff Frosal stood up and said: "Your Excellency, we should have no time to wait, not to mention the Far East, but to our neighbor Germany, we must also increase military spending and carry out a comprehensive modernization of the army. ”

"Yes, we need reform! The Army needs to stay strong! I'll report back to the president, we have to be strong! Marshal McMahon said firmly.

Imperial Palace, Tokyo, Japan. "His Majesty the Emperor!" Ito Hirobumi knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "The war of aggression against China that we are preparing for has now gone wrong, and a new army with well-equipped, well-trained, and brave battles has appeared in the Qing Kingdom. According to intelligence, China's army is much backward, and it seems that we need to correct the methods we used to learn from the Western army, and we must learn from the military affairs of the Qing Dynasty in order to better defeat them, know each other and know ourselves, and not be defeated in a hundred battles! ”
