Chapter 134: Superiority

Wang Liyou was worried, and even wanted to see if there was a window for escape, but a soldier quickly walked in outside, and to Wang Liyou's relief, the soldier also brought him a plate of water and a towel, which meant that the official army wanted to tidy up his appearance, and he was sure to meet someone at the meeting.

Seeing that there was no need to worry about his life in a short period of time, Wang Liyou also relieved his heart slightly, carefully washed his hands and wiped his face at the same time, and smoothed out the already wrinkled military uniform on his body, and after a while, it looked not as wolf as before, at least his face was not dirty.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Liyou was indeed taken to a relatively wide barracks, and there was a person in it, this person Wang Liyou knew: he was the one who led the 'Liaoxi Bandit Suppression Detachment' to attack Zhang Zuolin's Kong Guanbei, Wang Liyou followed Zhang Zuolin to Jinzhou at the beginning of the year, and also met several major officers of the Third Town, although he was not familiar with this Kong Guanbei, he had also seen it twice.

Immediately, he took the initiative to speak: "I've seen Kong Tong's belt!" ā€

Although Wang Liyou is temporarily deaf, he can still speak, but the voice is a little loud, Kong Guanbei seems to know that Wang Liyou has become deaf, so he didn't say anything, but directly picked up the pen and wrote the words and handed it to him.

So such a strange conversation began, and after Kong Weibei wrote another sentence to Wang Liyou, Wang Liyou's face changed slightly, and then he looked up at Kong Guanbei, gritted his teeth and said: "If you want to persuade Zhang Zuoxiang and Tang Yulin to surrender, I'm afraid it's impossible!" ā€

Kong Weibei frowned all of a sudden, although he was confident that Zhang Zuolin would be wiped out in one go, but there would always be casualties in the battle between the two armies, and although today's combat effectiveness could be called a complete victory, his men still killed several and wounded more than 20 people. So if Zhang Zuolin or his subordinates could surrender without a fight, then Kong Guanbei would naturally be willing, but he didn't expect Wang Liyou to immediately say that he was in difficulty.

Seeing that Kong Guanbei's face was not good, Wang Liyou said: "I have a good relationship with Zhang Zuo, you can write a letter to try, but Tang Yulin and I have never had a friendship, and during yesterday's deliberations, Tang Yulin also supported and resolutely fight!" ā€

When he finished saying this, Wang Liyou said secretly again: Hmph, Tang Yulin, you instigated me to send troops to lead the front and was captured, I will let you not even have a chance to surrender, and die with Zhang Zuolin!

As for Zhang Zuoxiang, don't look at the name is similar to Zhang Zuolin, and he is still a sworn brother, but now it is a matter of everyone's life, Kong Guanbei has already released his words, Zhang Zuolin can only surrender unconditionally if he wants to surrender, but in order to win over and divide Zhang Zuolin's subordinates, Kong Guanbei also released his words As long as Zhang Zuolin's officers lead the army to surrender, then it will be arranged as appropriate, it is impossible to command the original army, but he will continue to give you an official.

If you don't surrender, then when the army officially attacks, you won't want this kind of treatment, and then you can only die or surrender unconditionally!

Zhao Dongyun has never had a good impression of bandits, he has been in Jinzhou for many years, and many of these bandits who have been exterminated have also had the idea of surrendering, but Zhao Dongyun mostly doesn't want it, and he only received a Lu Shuanggun and a Shiyang after a year.

As for the current Zhang Zuolin, Zhao Dongyun has no intention of soliciting him, he can kill him, and if he can't kill him, he will kill him, anyway, Zhao Dongyun is unwilling to prevent him from doing anything in the Northeast in the future, but the rest of Zhang Zuolin's department doesn't matter, if he is willing to lead the army to take the initiative to surrender, if he has the ability, he will use it after a few years, and if he is not capable, he will be sent away with an idle position, and it is impossible to continue to lead the original troops.

This is not just Zhao Dongyun's way of doing things, in fact, most of the officials and soldiers in the late Qing Dynasty treated rebels and bandits in this way, and they did not like to appease as they did in the last years of the Ming Dynasty.

However, for the Beiyang New Army, accepting the appeasement means accepting you into the Beiyang system, so the light yƬ will not be appeased, and in the face of rebels and bandits, it is to suppress and suppress!

They are also the last dynasties, but the late Ming Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty are two concepts, the former is the chaotic era of Zhumen's wine and meat, and the road has frozen bones, and the so-called nation or even politics has nothing to do, people don't even have to eat, it's no wonder that the world is not chaotic.

However, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were basically no large-scale natural disasters across the country, and man-made disasters had no disasters affecting the north and south of the Yangtze River since the annihilation of the long-haired and twisted bandits.

There were no large-scale wars and large-scale natural disasters during the Guangxu period, and many reforms after the Gengzi year, especially the economic reforms, did not increase the national fiscal revenue, and ordinary people could maintain a decent standard of living, at least there would be no large-scale famine and the sale of children and daughters.

Well, although this kind of fact is already unsightly in later generations, but in today's Russo-Japanese War, in fact, the middle and low-level people in China can even find a sense of superiority in Japan itself, which has entered the quasi-great powers.

Whether it was decades before or now, or even until the Second World War, the Japanese were desperately squeezing the peasants to build military industries, especially the life of the middle and lower classes of the Japanese people during the Russo-Japanese War, which is called a tragedy, if the daughters of ordinary families grow up a little well, they will be bought into brothels nine times out of ten......

In countless novels and movies and television dramas depicting the old days, young people who went to study or joined the army can be seen happily returning to their hometowns to marry their first love, and they will find a fact that makes them sad and indignant: that is, the goddess has become a prostitute......

Well, most of them also depict the protagonist finding the brothel where her first love was or prostituting her or watching someone else prostitute her......

The Japanese society of the Meiji, Taisho, and Hirohito eras, was a very deformed society that developed.

But since we talk about how perverted the old days were, we naturally have to talk about their merits, many people may say that the army, the spirit of bushido, or the development of industry is better, but that is secondary, and the most commendable thing about modern Japan is not that the army is not a factory, but education.

In the education system of modern Japan, as long as you are smart enough, hard enough, and don't make stupid words, no matter what your background is, most of them can get ahead, and it is very interesting that most of the powerful people in modern Japan are from Hanshi, and the students of the two imperial universities are all from bitter backgrounds!

In short, the Japanese society of the old empire was a typical society in which the country was strong and the people were poor, the country was strong enough to resist the Western powers, and it had the third most powerful navy in the world, but the people could not eat all year round, and even if they were not sick or sick, they had to buy their daughters to brothels.

Such a strong country, don't do it!

As for China in this era, although many people still have the dream of being the first in the Celestial Empire, they are already 108,000 miles away from the word "power".

However, it is worth noting that while the country was weak at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the people's livelihood was not bitter!

If you put aside the so-called concepts of nation and country, just look at the end of the Qing Dynasty from the perspective of contemporary ordinary people, it is natural nonsense to think how good it is, but it is not bad, at least there is no large-scale war, no large-scale natural and man-made disasters, and you can barely survive, so that there will be no ten rooms and nine emptiness, starvation for 3,000 miles and so on.

Looking at the end of the Qing Dynasty from the perspective of ordinary people, then you will find that in fact, the end of the Qing Dynasty is not bad, anyway, the fart people in 2014 will never have more happiness than the bitter haha people at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and everyone can't get more except to live.

Oh, by the way, if you look at it from the perspective of the keyboard politicians, in fact, there is another advantage in the late Qing Dynasty, that is, you can also hold Xiao Fengxian while running a newspaper to criticize Guangxu Cixi or something, so you can live a good addiction, if you feel that this is not cool enough and feel that you will not become a revolutionary martyr, you can also run to play revolution with Sun Wen!

But if you look at the end of the Qing Dynasty from the perspective of the social elite, it is simply terrible and cannot be worse, look at the treaties that lost power and humiliated the country, look at the silver that was lost, and look at the land that was ceded, it is enough to make any Yan and Huang descendants who have been nurtured by the country and the nation wail, and the Yan and Huang descendants of the Han and Tang dynasties in the past have fallen to this point today, and countless ancestors and sages are probably eager to jump out of the grave and scold!

The end of the Qing Dynasty after the reform of Gengzi was a very complicated era, and it is not clear in three words, and it can be generally considered that this era has the danger of destroying the country and exterminating the clan in the hearts of scholars; For conspirators who are not willing to be annihilated among all beings, this is a time of great opportunity;

But in the hearts of ordinary people, this is an era that can barely survive, and after the New Deal reform, the small life can be better than before, so from 1901 to 1911, this short decade does not say that the peaceful and prosperous era can be regarded as stable.

As for the state and the nation, what is that? Can you eat it? Can I wear it? Can I live?

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, it was such an era full of ignorance and backwardness, but it was also full of hope!

Therefore, compared with the end of the Ming Dynasty, which made people almost desperate and wanted to overthrow everything, the end of the Qing Dynasty still maintained a certain hope.

But the country is the country, the nation is the nation, the government is the government, the political party is the party, SO, there is hope for the country and the nation, it does not mean that there is still hope for the government of the Qing court!

If there is still a glimmer of hope for China and the Chinese nation after the Gengzi year, then the Manchu court must be hopeless......
