Tianjin, the Yamen of the Governor of Beiyang, has been attracting the attention of the world in the past period of time, whether it is a foreigner or a Chinese, but anyone who cares about current affairs cannot bypass this Beiyang Yamen. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Although there are many banner people in the capital who have seen that the Beiyang Minister has not done anything so far - he can't "go straight to the Yellow Dragon to break the Tang rebellion", and short-sightedly arranges rumors such as "Li Er wants to be the emperor", everyone knows that if Li Hongzhang is really reversed, the Qing Dynasty is afraid that there will really be no hope.

However, after the rumors spread thousands of times, this "Li Er's rebellious heart" remark became more and more popular among the banner people, and even the diplomatic circles discussed it privately -- the possibility of Li Hongzhang becoming emperor -- of course, this was only a private discussion by some diplomats, but anyone could see that the Beiyang Yamen really did not do their best -- the main force of the Beiyang Naval Division is still in the Ryukyus and Taiwan.

What does Beiyang Yamen want to do?

When everyone was puzzled, the Beiyang minister who lived in the Beiyang Yamen refused the imperial court's edict to enter Beijing three times on the grounds of "urgent military affairs", which was naturally tantamount to rebellion in the eyes of those who were interested, but on the other hand, Li Hongzhang continued to send troops to reinforce the Yuguan area to prevent the Korean rebel army from entering Beijing.

"Zhongtang, this is Ye Junmen's excerpt............ It's a fire ......"

Yang Shixiang was holding a stack of official documents and was following Li Hongzhang. In Li Hongzhang's signing room, there were still a bunch of people, listening to the assignment of tasks by this Beiyang lord, who was much taller than ordinary people.

"Has the ammunition sent to Yuguan arrived? Don't think that the ammunition is sent and it is over, this Yuguan is now a key pass of the country, once it is lost. His Tang Ziran's 100,000 army will march into Beijing. Tang Ziran's new army is quite powerful. I have to make up for the lack with foreign weapons! If it's not right, that's it...... Don't forget, this Great Qing Kingdom is still pointing at us! This is not only the face of my Li Hongzhang, but also the face of our Great Qing Kingdom! ”

Does the Great Qing Kingdom still have face?

Not to mention, there is really no face now, the result of the battle of Liaoyang fell through everyone's glasses, and even the foreigners were shocked, in the end, the North Korean army was too brave. Or was the Qing army too cowardly?

For foreigners from all over the world, they originally seemed to be preparing to hear the news from Liaoyang, after all, the performance of the Qing army in the Ryukyus was still in the middle and upper ranks, at least the combat strength of the new army in Taiwan was quite eye-catching, but they never thought that they had praised the Qing army here, and the army stationed in Korea - the troops that also belonged to the new army of the Qing state, under the order of the commander in the country, launched a war against the Qing court, and the Qing army was easily defeated like a falling flower.

For the battle of Lushun, which is known as the "Gibra camel of the Far East", there is still an explanation for the sneak attack and the absence of the main general. The Battle of Liaoyang, which lasted only a few days, was actually only fought for half a day, but it made all countries have to re-examine the Qing Dynasty. Arguably. The face of the Great Qing Kingdom, this battle was torn off by Tang Haoran.

In fact, it is not only the face of the Great Qing Kingdom that has been torn off, it is clearly the beautiful paper shell that Li Hongzhang has worked hard to decorate the Great Qing Kingdom with all these years, for Li Hongzhang, who is under pressure from all sides, he has to do everything possible to maintain this face. At this time, the sentence "pointing to" in his words undoubtedly revealed a message to everyone - everything they have to rely on the support of the Beiyang Naval Division, if they can't hold the table, whether it is the Manchu Qing Dynasty or Tang Ziran, naturally there is no need to scruple about him.

"There is also an order for Shandong to recruit another 50,000 training troops, and let the household department find a way to ...... this silver."

Sometimes, what is the greatest benefit of being a powerful minister? is that there is no one to elbow, and after Tang Haoran proposed the "Eight Governors to Discuss Politics", the court has increased the scruples of the other party, but at this time of tension, it is as easy to write off and deduct as in the past, and it is much cheaper than in the past to give silver.

"The sailor wants to pay for repairs and ammunition? Let them go to Singapore and Shanghai first to clear the hull, and the repair fee on the Singapore side will be paid by the Guangdong Customs, and Shanghai will be handed over to the Shanghai Customs! ”

It was easy to wait for Li Hongzhang's energetic distribution to be completed, and Yang Shixiang handed over the official document. During these days, Yang Shixiang has also been a little cautious, he can't be careless, because he has a personal relationship with Tang Haoran, so that some officials impeached him, if it wasn't for the protection of Lord Zhongtang, whether this head could be kept is a matter of words.

He naturally knew why the official impeached him, he didn't want to be a member of the Beiyang shogunate, whether it was impeachment or beheading, it was a reminder to the adults. And the reason why the lord protected him was to tell the court that he was a member of the Beiyang Yamen, and the court wanted to take it back.

Whether they want to or not, whether it is Beijing or Tianjin, the big guys all understand that since Tang Haoran proposed the "Eight Governors to Discuss Politics", the harmony between the Qing Dynasty and the imperial court has been broken, of course, the most direct reason is that the Manchurian court does not believe in Han Chen, as for Han Chen, he is wary of the court because of Tang Ziran's experience, and the "Eight Governors Discuss Politics" is undoubtedly a "bait" thrown out by Tang Haoran, a bait that the eight governors of the world want to refuse, but dare not refuse.

In fact, these days, he has been thinking about a question, Tang Haoran did this. Why, exactly? On the surface, he led the "army of tigers and wolves" to capture Lushun, occupy Shengjing and Kejinzhou, and he was not majestic along the way, and tens of thousands of troops were beaten by him.

But did he really think that with the few soldiers under him, especially the reality that he had no roots in the country, he would be able to enter the Central Plains? Not to mention anything else, will this "Eight Governors of the World" be happy for him to be the emperor? Obviously, he saw this, otherwise he would not have come up with any "Eight Governors to discuss politics" to divide the court and the locality.

Although both the court and the Xinjiang officials know the discord behind the "Eight Governors' Discussion of Politics", no one dares to bet, dare not bet that the other party will not take this matter to heart, and dare not bet that the other party does not have different intentions. What benefits can he Tang Haoran get from this "Eight Governors Discussing Politics"?

Is it just a wedge between the court and the Xinjiang officials?

If the imperial court agrees to the "Eight Governors to discuss politics" in order to protect the country, what will he Tang Haoran get at that time?

Yang Shixiang didn't know what benefits Tang Haoran had gotten, but judging from the recent movements in the mansion, he found that the eight governors were afraid that they were about to reach an agreement......

Linked to the telegram sent by Ye Junmen from Yuguan, and then linked to the previous instructions from Lao Zhongtang, Yang Shixiang sympathized with Tang Ziran in his heart, in the past few decades, he was the first person to break the layer of window paper between the court and the locality, but what could he get? In the future, the world will be discussed by the eight governors and the imperial court, as for him Tang Ziran? In the end, it's not just a "bamboo basket for water", maybe it will accompany the head...... No!

Yu shook his head in his heart, Yang Shixiang immediately thought of Lord Zhongtang's appreciation of Tang Ziran, otherwise, Zhongtang would not use "Ziran" to call him, maybe when the time comes, Lord Zhongtang will find a way to protect Tang Ziran. Changing to someone else may not be able to protect him Tang Ziran, but if the Lord Zhongtang in front of him wants to protect it, when the time comes, even if the court is afraid, he will have to give him this face.

What does it mean to be in power?

At least the one in front of him is the real power of the government and the opposition, that is, half of the "Eight Governors of the World" is also in his hands, as long as the Lord Zhongtang agrees to the "Eight Governors to discuss politics", even if the court is unwilling, it has to make concessions, who let this in addition to the Beiyang Naval and Land Division, half of the "Eight Governors of the World" is also completely used by him.

Perhaps, when the time comes, he Tang Ziran will be the first government of the "Eight Governors".

When Li Hongzhang finished the matter in front of him, his mental head was obviously a little overdone. Sitting there, I couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, so much so that I drank a few sips of American ginseng tea before I could be considered relieved. Seeing that Yang Shixiang was holding Ye Zhichao's fold now, he took it, opened it and glanced at it, and snorted immediately:

"It may not be easy to fight, why be cowardly!"

Yang Shixiang has long known the content of this excerpt. The above words and sentences can even be memorized, when Ye Zhichao was transferred to defend Yuguan, the battle of Liaoyang was just over, looking at the whole division of the Fengjun army led by Zuo Guigui, who pacified the Jindan Sect with him last year, and actually only fought for half a day, he was completely annihilated by Tang Ziran's new army, and he also died on the battlefield.

"You may not fight to the death, why be cowardly!"

Lord Zhongtang's words made Yang Shixiang's brows jump slightly, what does my lord mean by this? Could it be ...... The North Korean army will not fight Yuguan? Or are they not interested in Jingshi?

Looking at Li Hongzhang, who was full of confidence when he said that sentence, Yang Shixiang couldn't help muttering in his heart, how could an adult be so confident?

"If you are so timid, why do you want to fight?"

With a long sigh of helplessness, Li Hongzhang's heart once again swelled up with a burst of helplessness for Huaijun.

This Huai army is really not as good as one generation after another, and every year is not as good as a year, and the bravery of the Huai army back then is completely gone, that is, the new army trained by Yuan Shikai can still be used, but what is the use of the thousands of Taiwan's new army even if they are transferred to Zhili? How can you stop Tang Ziran's 100,000 army?

Not only is this the case for the Huai army, but also for the defense forces in various places, if the Qing Kingdom wants to hold on in the future, it must train the new army again! After a long sigh, Li Hongzhang looked at Yang Shixiang and commanded.

"Give him a telegram back, and if you dare to say cowardice, you will be killed!"

Although it was Hanlin, Li Hongzhang, who was born in the army, said this, but there was a hint of murderous intent in his cold voice, which only made Yang Shixiang feel a chill in his back, and hurriedly responded, and when he withdrew from the big signing hall, he unexpectedly saw a person walking in in a hurry, it was Sheng Xuanhuai, why did he come?

Isn't he in Shanghai? When did you return to Tianjin? And, he, what did he do in Shanghai?
