Chapter 844: Sacrifice

Sent away Zeng Disheng, Yang Meng also reviewed his plan, now it seems that sending Zeng Disheng into the northwest is indeed a good choice, at the time of the Manchu Qing court's loss, Zeng Disheng, Zuo Jigao with the expansion of the territory to defeat the power of Tsarist Russia, ascending to the heights to support their own position, is definitely in line with the general trend!

What Yang Laosan is planning, Zeng Disheng doesn't know, he returned to Jinkou to learn about Xiangyong's situation from Zeng Laojiu, Zeng Disheng is also the first two big, now Xiangyong In addition to Du Zhenhu's people, the other battalion committees are very useful, and the fingers and claws of this elder brother's association are too long and too deep in Xiangyong.

Originally thought that this Xiang Yong was his hole card, but now it seems that he is the commander of Xiang Yong, and has been coerced by Xiang Yong, with the growth of the power of the Elder Brotherhood in the army, Xiang Yong's demands are getting bigger and bigger, Jiangnan, Zhili, there are many officials belonging to the Elder Brotherhood, they use Xiang Yong as the backing, want to continue to sit big, this Elder Brotherhood has reached the time when it is not possible to get rid of it.

"Lao Jiu, this time through the northwest, you should stay in Zhili!"

The relationship between Xiang Yong is too complicated, some people must be killed, some people can be killed but not killed, and some people do not need to be killed, but what is the personality of Yang Laosan, Zeng Disheng is still not sure, in terms of previous corruption, this Yang Laosan is a character who can kill by mistake and not let go.

Although there are some things, the two have reached an agreement, but as officials in the court, no matter what dynasty it is, it is difficult to sing alone! Today's Xiangyong is a family of its own, although Zuo Jigao and Hu Linyi can also be regarded as three Hunan and one lineage, but Zuo Jigao has Chu Yong and Hu Linyi in charge of Hubei, and the relationship between these two and Xiangyong is clear and far. wants to maintain the status of Xiangyong veteran. It is necessary to leave one person near the left side of the Jingshi. Otherwise......

"Big brother, this is going to the Northwest Wind Sword and Frost Sword, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to support the overall situation if you go alone!"

Zeng Laojiu is more flexible than Zeng Disheng, although he thought of something, but the eldest brother didn't reveal it, and he didn't want to speak first, so he went to the northwest, I am afraid that Yang Laosan had the intention of borrowing a knife to kill people.

"Don't be too shrewd. How about Xiangyong, you know best, there are some things that have to be done!

You stay in Zhili, Taoguang is obscure, and the fault is not those who are loyal and pure......

Alas...... Now this situation! Unspeakable! Can't say! Don't dare to say! You can do it! Self-preservation! ”

Zeng Disheng has the wisdom to know people, how is his own nine, Zeng Disheng is very clear, some things are too clear, but it hurts his life.

"Big brother, let's put it down?"

The heart is separated from the belly. Even his own brothers are the same, the truth of Xiang Yong. Zeng Laojiu doesn't say that he is also a little selfish with his own boss, but it's a pity! This Yang Laosan is too powerful, whether it is the boss of his own family or more than 50,000 Xiangyong, they are all suppressed by Yang Laosan.

"The artifact of the country, the virtuous live in it! Lao Jiu, what is a virtuous person? You still don't read much of this book! This time I stayed in Zhili, and I had to read more history books!

Don't make trouble, or ......"

Virtuous? What is a virtuous person? Is this Yang Laosan counted? Sort of, right? Looking at the unwilling Zeng Laojiu, Zeng Disheng, the eldest brother, that's all he can say.

"Big brother, I'm really unwilling to come to this point! Xiang Yong, it is the heritage of the Zeng family! ”

Zeng Laojiu understands more in his heart than Zeng Disheng, but unfortunately, what is the eldest brother's mind, Zeng Laojiu is not easy to figure out now, I am afraid that the eldest brother has been persuaded by Yang Laosan.

"The Zeng family? Don't say that again! The elder brother must be removed, otherwise many people will be implicated, Yang Laosan acts, he would rather kill by mistake than let go, and you are also in the eyes of the previous anti-corruption, remember! Remember! ”

Now at this time, ambition is unacceptable, Yang Lao's three major forces have been achieved, even the imperial court has no power to resist, what does the Zeng family want to do, I am afraid that it is not far from destroying the door.

"Unwilling!"

The words of the two brothers of the Zeng family are a little obscure, but they determine the future of Xiang Yong, I am afraid that the only thing left in the northwest is Xiang Yong, to which Du Jianhu belongs, but Du Zhenhu belongs, is that Xiang Yong?

"It's hard to do it! So be it! To straighten out the military horses, I have to go to Beijing again. ”

With the train, Zeng Disheng came and went to Beijing much faster, Zeng Laojiu's speed of rectifying Xiangyong was also quite fast, and after Zeng Disheng arrived in Beijing, Xiangyong was also ready to pull out.

It was still Yang Meng's mansion, Zeng Yang and the two of them, still sitting separately as the host and guest, looking at Zeng Disheng with a dull face, Yang Meng just smiled and didn't speak.

"Grandpa, in the affairs of the northwest, we still have to take into account the feelings of the soldiers!"

"The battle should be fought how it should be fought, Xiang Yong is a new force, there is a big mess in the northwest, some leaders in the northwest were wiped out by the army of Tsarist Russia, and the imperial court also wants to support the northwest, Xiang Yong will go to the northwest and fight hard! Don't lose the prestige of the imperial court! Otherwise......"

As far as the situation in the northwest is concerned, Yang Meng does not need to blatantly kill Xiang Yong, the war over there, after a month or two, will enter a white-hot state, and the time for Xiang Yong to advance westward, two months is afraid that it will be more than two, when Xiang Yong is put into the battlefield, it is the most tragic time of the battle, the long front of tens of millions of people, want to defeat 50,000 Xiang Yong, that is, a day or two of effort.

Today's Tsarist Russia, the combat power should not be underestimated, no matter how bad the domestic environment of Tsarist Russia is, they can still cope with short-term hand-to-hand combat, and after a few months, it will be difficult to say.

"This is going to the northwest, does the grandfather have any other instructions?"

The overall situation has been decided, Xiang Yong must be eliminated, Zeng Disheng has no persistence, knowing current affairs is the only magic weapon to stabilize the officialdom, foolish and loyal people, now at this time, it is not easy to find.

"There's nothing to say about the war, it's just a steady fight without counting the dead and wounded!

This matter, you still have to be attentive, looking through the past dynasties, the rise and fall of dynasties is a common thing, what remains unchanged through the ages is the inheritance of Confucianism, the people of the northwest border, most do not practice Confucianism, you Confucianism semi-saint went to the northwest, or to spread the teaching!

Remember, the border people want to be a subordinate, this Confucianism is something they must learn, Lao Tzu ignores their culture, and those who stick to their own inheritance will not be accepted or assisted.

Which ethnic group is the most stubborn must be sent to the battlefield, ignorant of the teachings of the saints. It's also a curse to keep it!

War in the Northwest. There are too many people who need to fill the pits. Millions, not less, not much, if you want to spread Confucianism, you must have a hard-hearted heart!

Domestic affairs, Lao Tzu is in charge, you just have to fight in the northwest, but there is one point, Tsarist Russia is directly under it, even if you believe in Confucianism, you can't stay! ”

Step by step to the present day. Yang Meng also recognized the benefits of Confucianism, and wanted to condense into a clan, Confucianism is indispensable, perhaps today's Confucianism still has many shortcomings, but it is better than other sects in Northwest and Central Asia, at least this Confucianism is respected by the vast majority of the people in the Qing Dynasty.

"This ......"

Going to the northwest, Zeng Disheng also knew that he was going to kill people, but these words came out of Yang Laosan's mouth, which was still a little frightening. Isn't this the same as the Manchu Qing Dynasty? Those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me die!

"You just do what you have to do, and everything else. There are people below to do it.

Okay, Zeng Laojiu's seat, Zhili will be set aside, England will bow his head in the near future, you just go to the northwest! ”

The victim of politics, but not only Xiangyong, now the British army in Jinkou is afraid that it has also got the war report in the northwest, this confrontation, Tsarist Russia is the biggest victim, in a few days, maybe the note from the English side is coming, now Yang Meng, there is not much time to ink with Zeng Disheng, foreign affairs, good or bad, it is just like that, now, cleaning up the chaos in the country is a big deal.

The Anglo-Russian coalition army in Jinkou can't stay for a long time, this is a problem of elbows and armpits! Besides, in the suburbs of Beijing, hundreds of thousands of horses cannot be raised for a long time, and in normal times, tens of thousands of horses are enough to defend the stability of Gyeonggi, and these large militia groups in the suburbs of Beijing still have to enter the three eastern provinces and Mongolia as soon as possible.

"Disheng retires!"

Aside from Zeng Disheng's Xiangyong, the Qing Dynasty, what needs to be rectified, except for a few green battalion soldiers and horses, only the garrison generals of Mongolia and the three eastern provinces remain, these horses are better than the green battalion soldiers, and when the time comes, let them go to Tsarist Russia together.

At most, a year, Yang Meng roughly estimated, a year later, the Qing Dynasty up and down the army, all belong to the Yang family, although today's green battalion soldiers and garrison generals in various places, can not make any big waves, but it is a hidden danger to stay.

There is no shortage of Xiangyong in the Beijing-Tianjin battlefield, and now the Anglo-Russian coalition army is half-crippled, and 100,000 horses are enough to annihilate them, but at this time, Yang Meng will not take it lightly, in addition to the people and horses in Beitang, the British navy is also a force that should not be underestimated.

As Yang Meng thought, the battle report in the northwest had already reached the hands of the British army, but the time when the English mainland got the news was a month earlier than the British army in Jinkou.

The movements of the Qing army in the northwest and Central Asia were completely aimed at Tsarist Russia, hundreds of thousands of modern infantry, and also shocked the politicians in England, who had underestimated this great empire in the East before, and some unknown things had been carried out for a long time over the years, otherwise where did the guns that armed hundreds of thousands of troops come from?

These guns are not brown bes, such early smoothbore guns, Milican Hall and firearms from European countries, the Qing army is equipped, it seems that Yunyan is a thing made by the Qing government, and the previous Qing country has been forbearing!

I am afraid that the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Beijing and Tianjin areas of the Qing Dynasty, the hundreds of thousands of troops in the northwest, and the large-scale ironclad fleet were not built and produced in the past two years, and this decision of England was completely wrong.

At this time, the English side is also a little envious of the French who withdrew from the battlefield early, the cunning French, I am afraid that they have already gotten such news, it is likely that many of the equipment of the Qing army are provided by the French, as far as the current situation is concerned, withdrawing from the Far East and devoting itself to India is the best choice for England, but how to withdraw from the Far East needs to be carefully considered.

It is impossible to pay reparations, but without reparations, the Qing State may not let it go lightly, the situation of the British army in the Far East is quite unfavorable to England, if the British army in the Far East is completely annihilated, it will affect the entire plan of England in the Far East.

The navy alone is not enough to conquer India again, without India as a soldier, the British army has also suffered a great blow, even if the army trapped in the Qing country is abandoned, whether the navy can retreat is also a question, once the Qing navy attacks the British navy along the way, the total annihilation is probably expected.

Because of the strong relationship of the army, the British mainland miscalculated the strength of the Qing navy, ten ironclad ships, in their opinion, it is likely to be just the tip of the iceberg, and it is not difficult for a country to build dozens of warships.

Geographically, the Qing navy has an absolute advantage, and in the coastal operations, the ironclad ships occupy an absolute advantage, as far as today's intelligence is concerned, the war in the Far East, England has been defeated.

Now the appeal of the English side is just to withdraw from the Qing Kingdom safely, and if you want to withdraw from the Qing Kingdom safely, I am afraid that you can only make a fuss about the war between the Qing State and Tsarist Russia.

Without listening to the opinions of the Far East, the British side made the decision to abandon Tsarist Russia on its own soil, and the geographical relationship determined that it was impossible for the Qing State and Tsarist Russia to coexist peacefully, and the opportunity for England to withdraw from the Far East was on Tsarist Russia, and Tsarist Russia was so unexplained that Britain fell victim to it, which may be something that many people can't understand or can't think of at all, right?
