Chapter 260: Wu Xia Amon is no longer the Wu Xia Amon of the past

The method of 'razing and destroying raze' has existed in China since ancient times. Fan Ye's Book of the Later Han Dynasty. Deng Xun's Biography breaks the true meaning of this in one sentence: "The speaker attacks each other with Qiang and Hu, and the benefits of the county officials are razed and razed, and it is not appropriate to prohibit protection." ”

It's a pity that the 'imperial court' at that time was a powerful party and stood in the position of arbiter. And now 'I Daqing' is the weak side, and I can only look at the hungry wolves competing for gravitation!

It also makes this 'strategy', which should be neutral, like "drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle", "long-distance and close attack", etc., which belong to the struggle strategy, has become more and more negative after the rendering of "I am in the Qing Dynasty", and finally completely became a mocking and derogatory term.

Standing on the shoulders of the giant of 'history', Liu Xian is extremely clear about these things. The Qing government joined forces with foreign powers to suppress the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, and through this cooperation, Tong Guò realized that he could not only use the Western powers to "borrow teachers to help suppress" and maintain domestic rule, but also hope to use the competition and contradictions between the great powers to prevent one country from dominating China in order to obtain a temporary respite.

Of course, at that time, there was no such thing as 'Tongzhi Zhongxing', and the Westernization movement with the slogans of "self-improvement" and "seeking prosperity" was still in the ascendant, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was indeed unable to resist the British and French powers.

From this time, the Manchu Qing began to pay attention to the idea of "using razing to defeat razing". After the cultivation of the 60s and 70s, it was formally formed in the early 80s of this century, and gradually became the most basic foreign policy of the late Qing government.

Liu Xian's 'crossing' has changed too much, and it has influenced too much. He turned the second Franco-Vietnamese war into a real battle, and thus gave the idea of 'razing to raze' the best platform to showcase.

Ma Jianzhong, who studied international law in Paris for two years, expounded for the first time the Western idea of balance of power and its value to China, and put forward the term "balance of power" for the first time in a letter to friends in China, pointing out that "although Western countries are sovereign countries, the peace between them is maintained by the balance of power, and China will certainly be able to find benefits in this balance of power by forming an alliance with powerful countries."

Liu Xian's changes to the world will become bigger and bigger with time. Some obscure pawns in the original time and space will become famous in history. And some of the big figures whose names should shine brightly and shine on a piece of history will inevitably fade the halo above their heads!

Two days later? Again to meet Luo Shuya, the British Minister Ali Guo is in the list, and then, and then a qiē is no problem. The Qing Dynasty soon issued a letter of state, formally responding to the Nguyen Dynasty's plea for help and ordering Liu Xian to march south.

This letter of state spread the last reins on Liu Xian's body, but it also removed the last taboo in France. Liu Xian can officially fight the French, and the French don't have to hide anymore, they can also officially attack the Qin army.

Liu Xianam's plan was realized, and in an instant, the criticism and impeachment of his 'opening a railway' that had been spread by the government and the opposition before were reduced by half!

Those who are not attacking and impeaching Liu Xian are not the ones who have tacitly 'started a railway'. Instead, he insisted on not stabbing a knife in the back, and with the last bit of support of the Chinese people for the 'fight against foreign captives', he temporarily lowered his voice. They are waiting for the opportunity, or rather, waiting for Liu Xian to hand over the 'answer sheet' -- whether to win or lose!

Zhou Derun was one of them, and he was one of the few officials who asked the imperial court to send troops after the letter for help from Vietnam arrived in Beijing.

People who don't know still think that he is 'looking forward to' Liu Xian to send 'death'. Those who know him, but they know that Zhou Derun doesn't have that 'vision' at all.

When he wrote to Liu Xian and opposed the establishment of the railway, he could naturally see that Vietnam was unstable, and Liu Xianam's position could not be shaken at all in a short period of time, and he had to wait until the end of the war in Vietnam before making a conclusion. But it will definitely not disadvantage the Qin army to fight in Vietnam, and Liu Xian will be punished by the imperial court, and it will be combined with the 'settlement of accounts' at that time. It will not be combined with 'whether the imperial court will send troops to reinforce Vietnam'.

Because in Zhou Derun's eyes, one is one, and two is two. The imperial court sent troops to reinforce Vietnam, which was the duty and obligation of the suzerain. It doesn't match the others at all.

……

Outside the city of Hue, the majestic singing of the French army could be heard from afar. Thousands of French soldiers, with more than 3,000 blue ribbon soldiers, pressed in dense layers. Getting closer, getting closer......

Five miles, four miles, three miles. The tidal wave of the French camp stopped. The drums and trumpets were still playing, the formation was separated, and a breech-loading gun was pushed out.

A small number of French soldiers scattered in a line and continued to advance. Until it was a mile away from the position outside Hue, it boomed......

Like a loud thunder, one cannonball after another whistled towards the defenders' positions outside Hue City.

The roaring explosion was accompanied by fiery smoke and a splash of stagnant water and mud, and a splash of shrapnel and shock waves claimed the lives of the Vietnamese defenders.

The defenders hid in the mud and stagnant water with their heads in their hands. It has only been two days since the rain stopped, and this is the morning of the third day. Of course, the water in the trenches was not drained. Silt, thick silt, is the portrayal of the forward position.

The stagnant water and silt weakened the power of the cannonballs for a certain time, but the stumps and severed arms were scattered in the muddy water, staining the muddy water into blood red, which also made the scene of flesh and blood flying even more permeable.

The Vietnamese soldiers guarding the forward positions included both the new army and the old army. There were instructors of the Qin army, and there were also a small number of snipers. Thanks to the continuous rainy blessing and the blessing of Wu Zhongping's counterattack, Hu Wenguang hurried and hurried to Hue before the war.

The arrival of this group of sharpshooters also made Wu Zhongping's heart rise. He had heard of this unit, and the Qin army called the sniper unit a sharpshooter team, which was very clear at a glance. Of course, the 200 breech guns also made Wu Zhongping feel at ease about the safety of his life.

The shells were fired unhurriedly, causing a commotion among the old Vietnamese troops in the position, but there were new army soldiers next to them, and no deserters appeared.

In the baptism of shells, the battle between the two armies was a contest between French skirmishers and Qin snipers.

The French troops in the back watched in amazement as the skirmishers at the front became fewer and fewer, a platoon of skirmishers quickly lost half of them, and the rest of the men were led by a second lieutenant and the wolf bèi withdrew from the front line of the position.

Francis. Major General Garnier, looking at the Vietnamese positions on the opposite side and gritting his teeth with hatred, he dared to bet God that there were Chinese among the Vietnamese soldiers on the opposite side, and the people who beat the French stragglers to one or two dozen were Chinese.

The rate of fire of twenty or thirty breech guns rose sharply. Garnier's eyes were full of cold killing intent, brandishing his saber, and shouting: "Shoot!" Shoot me—"

Bombarded them, shattered all the Chinese -

See the Governor of Saigon, Mali. Jules. Rear Admiral Du Bailei's attitude and reasons towards the Chinese, you can know Francis. Major General Garnier hated the Chinese.

The artillery shells exploded like a loud thunder, and thick puffs of smoke rose from the Vietnamese army's positions, and the overwhelming explosion made many soldiers demented. Few of them, whether new or old, experienced such a density of shelling.

The veterans who had suffered this kind of blow were all taken west by Huang Jiyan.

It seems that there are always shells exploding, and the explosions never stop. At the head of Hue City, Wu Zhongping, Nguyen Zhifang, Liu Zhuo, Hu Wenguang, etc., were silent.

The gap, France and Vietnam, the qualitative gap between the two in terms of national strength!

A large number of Blue Ribbon soldiers began to charge. Some of them had knives and spears in their hands, and some of them had backward Minnie rifles and flintlock muskets. Although the French formed indigenous troops, it was impossible for them to arm the Blue Ribbons with breech-loading guns.

"Fire!" The authentic Chinese accent sounded on the Vietnamese army positions. "Boom, boom, boom......"

When countless blue-belted soldiers charged to the front of the position two or three hundred meters, the instructor of the Qin army on the position gave an order. Mountain Splitting Cannons, although there are only four Mountain Splitting Cannons here. But they can still let out their own roar to tear and shred their enemies.

In Chen Jingsheng's hoarse shouting, the four mountain-splitting cannons opened fire at the same time.

They are the same flowering bullets, not the original iron bullets. It has been three years since the end of the Xinjiang War, and the manufacturing process of the Qin army's munitions has long been different from the Wuxia Ameng of the past.

ps: I wanted to write about three thousand, but I really couldn't open my eyes. Things have been going on for more than half a month, and the government departments are full of nonsense, and I am still saying that this month will be added when I am on the shelves. Shame on you...... R1152
