The current situation is completely different from the history of the original plane. But war is not something that can be triggered by a sentence or two. Freezing three feet is not a day's cold! It can only be said that the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam, with the new army in hand, consciously gained some confidence, and had a tougher attitude towards France than itself in the history of the original time and space, which had already angered the French. Moreover, seeing that the size of the new Vietnamese army was constantly expanding, and the strength of the Qin army, which was standing behind the Vietnamese, was constantly expanding, Liu Xian did not believe that the French would not know anything about the large number of gun-making machines he had purchased in Germany and the United States.

Seeing that the guns of the Qin army are all about to be produced by themselves, can the French not be afraid that Liu Xian will buy breech guns for the Vietnamese?

If Vietnam's new army grows to 10,000 and is all equipped with breech-loading guns that are not inferior to those of the French army, how many soldiers will the French army need, and how many tens of thousands of military expenses will it spend to suppress Vietnam?

Therefore, the start of the second war between Vietnam and France was not without reason. It's just a pity that An Ye, this French soldier who should have left a strong mark in history, his light was completely buried in the entire ranks of the French army of three or four thousand people.

Now, the Vietnamese feel that they can't hold it anymore. Naturally, the problem was thrown to Beijing. You Beijing is the leading brother of the Greater China Cultural Zone, how can you do it if you don't come forward to take one!

Just two days after the Vietnamese credentials were handed over to Beijing, the French minister to China, Luo Shuya, also approached the door of the Prime Minister's Yamen. Demanding that China withdraw the Guangxi soldiers stationed in Beiqi in Vietnam even indirectly wants to negate the long-standing suzerain-vassal relationship between China and Vietnam.

Luo Shuya is not a simple person, don't look at his name Shuxian like a woman. Man's deeds are brutal, and they can't be more brutal. In the eighth year of Tongzhi (1869), when the Anqing teaching case occurred, in order to intimidate the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Luo Shuya and the French naval admiral led six warships to Shanghai, four to Nanjing, and two to Hankou via Anqing and Jiujiang to investigate and handle the teaching case. The Qing government immediately ordered Ma Xinyi, then the governor of Liangjiang, and others to quickly close the case. Ma Xinyi then agreed to Luo Shuya's unreasonable demands one by one; Refers to the appropriation of official land or warehouse offices in the city as church foundations; compensation for damages of $4,000; punish the "first offender"; He reaffirmed the protection of the clergy and reprimanded the officials at all levels in Anqing who were ineffective in apologetics.

Now Luo Shuya, who came to the door, did not have the support of the French Navy behind her, but it still gave the Qing court a headache.

Abundant? Today, I returned to the palace from the yamen. Pull yourself closer to the recliner, eh? I can also feel the green tendons on my head pounding. Luo Shuya deceived people too much, he deceived people too much!

Luo Shuya, who is messing around in the daytime, has a proud face, and she clearly emerges? In my head, Yi? His fists clenched involuntarily, and his mouth let out a low roar like that of a wounded beast. When will I be able to stand up in front of these Yangyi? When!?

It was dark outside, and there were I don't know how many people were standing outside the study. There are stewards, servant girls sent by Fujin, slaves, and retinues, all of them are anxious.

Abundant? It's been more than an hour since I entered the study, and no sound came out, and I don't know how many people in the palace have been affected. If it weren't for his words first, unless it was a call from the palace, no one would be allowed to disturb him, and those who violated it would be severely punished. Someone had already broken in.

"Twitter......" The door was pushed open, and Prince Gong, who had been waiting for a long time, finally 'woke up'.

Looking at the black pressure in front of him, more than 20 people, Yi? First stunned, then smiled. waved his hand to make people retreat, and he swept his eyes just now, and he could see clearly what the identities of these people were. Those eighty or ninety percent are people sent by the Fujin and the side Fujin in the house.

"Master, you can wake up. Zhang Shoudai of the household department has been waiting in the living room for an hour. ”

The folds on the faces of the housekeepers in the house are about to be wrinkled into deep mountains and high ravines.

Abundant? The expression on his face suddenly stiffened, and his eyes glared at the steward fiercely, "Bastard thing!" "Who is Zhang Shoudai? That Liu Xian is a relative who broke bones and tendons. "Go to the torture chamber and get twenty rolls yourself."

Although Liu Xian has never broken the generous gifts for the New Year's holidays over the years. Abundant? But I knew in my heart that this was completely polite on the surface. In his heart, he said that he was not unwilling to deepen his connection with Qin Jun. But his connection with the Xianghuai Chu army has been severed, even after Duolonga returns to Beijing, he is also his guest, and if he is involved in the Qin army, it will cause taboo in the palace. It will also provoke the Hunan Huai Chu army, especially the Hunan army, to be 'centrifuged' opposite to him.

As long as they are not fools, after weighing the gains and losses, they will all cut off the idea of contacting Qin Jun. Abundant? The same is true.

But this is completely different from Zhang Shoudai's personal visit, but he was hung by himself for more than an hour. Can't be friends with Qin Jun, Yi? I don't want to hate Qin Jun.

"I've seen the prince." Abundant? When he walked into the door of the small flower hall, Zhang Shoudai immediately bowed. There was not the slightest hint of impatience or mild anger on his face.

Abundant? But there was no carelessness at all, the officials went to the first and second grades, and how many people put all the thoughts on their faces? Don't say that Zhang Shoudai is still a civil official, even if he is a military attache Qiu Ba, he has come to this point, and he has also trained out of the city government.

"There's Lord Lao Zhang waiting. This king is rude, rude......"

I'm afraid that Zhang Shoudai, the squire official, can follow Yi? I heard the word in my mouth. Look the other way, definitely look the other way.

The two sat down and were polite. Abundant? First of all, we brought the topic to the point. "Lord Zhang didn't come to the door, can you see a lesson today?"

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Zhang Shoudai immediately made a modest appearance. It's just that he didn't show this on his face at all, and said directly: "The lower official came to see the prince today, because he heard that Fayi Luo Shuya was unreasonable and arrogant, and made noise about the governor's yamen. I came to come up with an idea for the prince. ”

Abundant? When I heard the word 'Fayi', my face hardened. When the three words 'Luo Shuya' burst out of Zhang Shoudai's mouth, his eyes were much sharper.

Even when the "Beijing Treaty" was signed, the British and French ministers were not so arrogant. This Luo Shuya is completely messing around. If the Qing Dynasty admits that 'Vietnam' is not a subject state of China, I am afraid that the whole of Vietnam will be swallowed into the stomach of the French in the future.

"Luo Shuya—"

"Hateful, hateful—"

Today's disturbance in the Prime Minister's Yamen has spread throughout the Beijing officialdom. Abundant? I don't hide my ugliness. Speaking of Luo Shuya's name, gritted her teeth.

If Liu Xian was here, he would definitely sneer in his heart. Yi?, the prince of a dignified country, was 'angry' by a small French minister, but he could only sulk at himself, instead of harshly reprimanding, and the backbone of the Manchu magnates was really completely broken in the war thirteen years ago.

Zhang Shoudai is very different from Liu Xian. He also felt the anger. But in addition to the atmosphere, what I still think of is Yi?' Endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens, and endure for the country's great sentiments, he is lamenting that it is not easy for Prince Gong, and he fully understands Prince Gong's concerns. Because in Zhang Shoudai's view, in Zhang Shoudai's subconscious, the French guns and warships are far stronger than the Qing Dynasty. China cannot resist it, so it can only tolerate it.

As for the dignity of the country, although Zhang Shoudai is angry, he doesn't seem to attach much importance to it. Even today's Prince Gong himself, is so angry, does it also add some personal face? I'm afraid he can't even tell himself.

"What does Master Zhang have to say, this king listens with his ears up!" This should be Liu Xian's attention, Yi? There was really a little eagerness. Zhang Shoudai is a traditional Chinese bureaucrat who can be said to be ignorant of foreign affairs. Coming to the palace so soon today to say this, Zhang Shoudai's self-possibility was eliminated, and the only thing left was Liu Xian who had already sued him.

Is this worth it? Looking forward to it!

"I really don't dare to hide it from the prince. Luo Shuya asked Prime Minister Yamen to put pressure, which Liu Yuandu had expected. He only sued the subordinate officials for one sentence -- suppressing the law with Britain and suppressing the law with razing. ”

Abundant? The eyes are brushed. These four words crossed his mind like a lightning bolt. In the past, some thoughts that passed through his heart from time to time were like encountering the broken iron of a magnet, which gathered together and molded into an imperfect, but very promising idea.

"Yingyi supports the stone reversal, and there must be a plan. The one who is pictured is the southwest of the country. Fayi is a Vietnam, but also a glimpse of Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou, because the southeast Yingyi is prosperous, Fayi can only follow, and can not compete with it. So he found another way to live, and found another way. ”

"Today, Minister Luo Shuya of Fayi is pressuring our country, withdrawing the Gui army back to Guangxi, and cutting off Vietnam and China's suzerain, what is the plan? Is Vietnam a country? Yingyi can see the tentacles in the southwest? ”

"There's a lot going on here, and there's a lot to be done. Does the prince think so? ”

It is very simple to think that in the history of later generations, Liu Xian can easily see the rivalry between Britain and France in southwest China. The simplest proof of this is the Sino-French War and the Third Anglo-Burmese War.

The scramble for red fruits. The aggressive interests of France in the Sino-French War completely superficialized the contradictions between Britain and France in the struggle for southwest China. The annexation of Burma became the most realistic way for Britain to compete with France.

So, two wars, one in 1884 and one in 1885.

And now it is still 1873 in the Western calendar, and no one in Britain and France has yet to reach the southwest of China. The British went to Burma from one place to another, but because of Burma's own 'self-abandonment of martial arts', they could still travel freely to Yunnan. France, on the other hand, was still separated by most of Vietnam, and the Nguyen dynasty's rule in Beiqi was gradually gaining momentum, and the influence of the French there was rapidly fading. It's not what the French want to see, but it's definitely what the British want to see.

Now that France is demanding that Liu Xian withdraw his troops back to Guangxi, it can be seen that their next step is to open their mouths to Vietnam again. If this bite continues, will the advantage of the British still be there? The British did not want to see that when they were still separated from Burma, the French would have been able to reach out and grasp the southwest of China.

Therefore, this is a great opportunity to 'use razing to defeat raze', and it can only be used to safeguard China's interests."

When Liu Xian sent troops to Vietnam, he thought about today's scene, and wrote to Zhang Shoudai early to tell him his calculations. And Zhang Shoudai was deeply impressed by Liu Xian's speculation, and his countermeasures against Liu Xian were even more surprising! R1152
