Chapter 270: Hit the dog's leg first

Fang Hao said: "Why don't you sit down and talk?" ”

Li Hongzhang said: "Then it is disrespectful! ”

Li Hongzhang was a staff member of Zeng Guofan before, although he did not go into battle in person, but he could be regarded as an old nose battle with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, so he knew a lot about the marching formation, and he was the first to say it.

He humbly asked for advice: "According to Mr. Fang's words, no matter how much I train in the Qing Dynasty, I won't have a chance?" ”

Fang Hao said: "The gap in weapons and equipment is too big! This can be remedied, but the hearts of the people ...... Do you know why you lost the battle of Tongzhou Bali Bridge? ”

Li Hongzhang is strange, didn't you just say the equipment gap? Why do you ask again now?

So he humbly asked for advice.

Fang Hao said: "Seng Geqin said that the Qing army died more than 1,000 people, and the British and French coalition said that the Qing army died more than 000 people!" Whether it's more than 1,000 or more than 000, do you think that's a lot for a 30,000-person Sanggelqin? ”

Li Hongzhang shook his head: "Not much!" ”

"Then why did Seng Geqin retreat?" Fang Hao asked.

Li Hongzhang said: "Because the British and French troops only killed 5 people and injured more than 40 people!" Seng Geqin felt that he couldn't beat it, so he ran away to save his vitality! ”

"Stupid!" Fang Hao scolded, "Let me ask you, what is the number of the new calendar when the battle of Bali Bridge was fought?" ”

The new calendar is the year of the Common Era, and our current date calculation method.

Li Hongzhang also understood, he converted it slightly, and said: "September 1." ”

"Okay, let me ask you again, what is the number of the British and French troops entering the capital?"

Li Hongzhang said: "October 6th! ”

Fang Hao sneered and asked, "How far is Bali Bridge to the capital?" ”

Li Hongzhang's eyes widened, and he already had an idea in his heart, he said: "Bali Bridge, as the name suggests, is also eight miles away from the root of the city wall of the capital!" ”

Fang Hao asked: "Bali Road, how many days do you need to walk?" The Anglo-French army was originally going to attack the capital, why did they win the battle, but instead of leaving, they had to wait in place for half a month? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the teahouse fell silent.

One person rushed to Fang Hao: "Mr. Dacai, please advise!" ”

Fang Hao said: "I can only guess! The weapons of the Anglo-French forces relied mainly on ammunition! Without ammunition, their guns are not even as good as burning sticks! The reason why they stopped and waited for half a month was because in the battle with Senggelqin, they ran out of ammunition and needed to replenish before they could continue to advance! ”

This is just a guess by Fang Hao, but he thinks it should be the truth.

Otherwise, the Anglo-French forces had their brains pumped and stopped at the Bali Bridge for half a month?

Li Hongzhang suddenly sweated like rain, and he said, "Mr. Fang, according to what you see!" If the monk king had held on for a while longer, maybe he would have won? ”

Fang Hao said: "I don't dare to say if I can't win!" But out of 30,000 people, only 3,000 died, and the whole army retreated! The willpower of this army will not work! That's why I just said that it's not just about weapons, it's about people! ”

Everyone in the teahouse, when they heard this, felt that what Fang Hao said was very right.

Suddenly, everyone was there scolding Monk Geqin.

The owner of the teahouse was scared enough, and hurriedly walked out and said, "Don't talk about state affairs" and "Don't talk about state affairs".

Li Hongzhang only felt that after chatting with Fang Hao for a few words, his mouth suddenly opened.

He felt that Fang Hao seemed to be looking at the problem from a higher place than him, so he looked at it more comprehensively than him.

It's as if he's lost in the forest, and he doesn't know how big the forest is and how to get out.

But Fang Hao was standing on the peak of the forest, and at a glance, he saw the forest thoroughly.

He was not afraid of embarrassment, and took out all his past confusion to ask Fang Hao.

After all, Fang Hao stood on the height of history and calmly answered.

Li Hongzhang benefited a lot.

Li Hongzhang muttered to himself: "Only foreign affairs can succeed!" Master Yi's long skills to control it! ”

Fang Hao was stunned, thinking that in the future, after Li Hongzhang took power, the Westernization Movement would not be influenced by himself today.

While chatting, a dusty man walked in outside, he was covered in muscle bumps, but he was brave and powerful.

When he arrived at the store, he sat directly on a bench and shouted, "Second, bring good tea to you, and then make a bowl of rotten meat noodles and add more meat!" Two more diced meat steamed buns! Hurry up! Lord is starving to death today! ”

A person who knew him next to him smiled and said, "Wei Da, are you getting rich?" ”

Wei Da said with a smile: "Don't hide it, in the past two days, we have been a porter for Uncle Yang, and we have made a lot of money!" Tsk, do you know, Lord Nayang got a lot of good things from the Old Summer Palace, but he couldn't fit a lot of sapphires, emeralds, pearls, and crystals...... The foreign master I served was called Herris, and he got a golden stupa today, more than seven feet high! But I'm tired of carrying it! ”

He spoke so vividly and excitedly, as if he were the one who looted it.

"Uncle Yang rewarded you?" Someone said very unhappily.

Wei Da smiled: "How can that?" When adults eat meat, I'll drink some soup with them! Don't you know, there are too many good things for the emperor in the Old Summer Palace! A lot of things can't be taken away, they have broken them! Many of the jewels inlaid in the furniture have to be smashed with an axe if they can't be taken down. ”

Speaking of this, he poured a sip of tea and continued to say, "The axe was slightly off, and the gem was smashed, and no one wanted it when it was shattered on the ground!"

This is not worth much to foreign adults! But it's worth a lot to us!

When I was free, I gathered up the ashes on the ground, sifted through them, and found a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry. It's all crumbs, but it's worth it! ”

He spat out.

"Phew, shameless!" Someone scolded.

Wei Da said triumphantly: "What's the use of scolding me? I have the ability to go to foreigners desperately! The emperor has run away, and we are not allowed to live? The Old Summer Palace is not snatched away by foreign devils, isn't that also the emperor's? Can it be your turn? ”

"Hurry up, believe it or not, our old and young masters beat you?"

Wei Dahaha laughed: "You have the ability to beat it!" I'm not afraid to tell you that Lord Herris has served him very well, and Uncle Herris has specially asked me to serve him tomorrow! I can go straight to the camp and find him! You beat me, Lord Yang killed your whole family! ”

Fang Hao stood up, walked to Wei Da's side, kicked Wei Da's table, and asked, "Can you call the foreigner?" ”

Wei yelled, "You ......"

Fang Hao slapped Wei Da directly in the face.

Wei Da, who was beaten, spun around before falling to the ground.

Fang Hao asked: "Back to my question, can you call the foreigner?" ”

Wei Da covered his face and said, "Yes! ”

Fang Hao said: "Then you go and call them, I have something to say to them!" ”

Wei Da looked at Fang Hao viciously, pulled his legs and ran, and said cruelly while running: "You wait!" You're dead! ”
