On February 8, 1904 in the Gregorian calendar, on the twenty-third day of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, at midnight on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, three Japanese destroyer squadrons approached the Russian fleet anchored in the outer harbor of Arthur, fired a total of 16 torpedoes, and severely damaged three main warships of the Russian army. At the same time, the Russian army was holding a dinner party in the city, and after hearing about the explosion, the headquarters inquired about the report called "live firing", and the next morning it learned that it had suffered heavy losses - three main warships, only the wreckage remained.

The Russo-Japanese War broke out. Before the signing of the "Xinchou Treaty," Li Hongzhang's hope that "there will be nothing to do in the Northeast for 20 years" came to naught amid the rumbling of artillery. If it has a spirit, under the nine springs, it is inevitable that it will vomit blood three times.

Otherwise, how can you say that these years are not peaceful? Britain on the front foot fought an autumn wind in Tibet, and there was a commotion on the back foot. Speaking of which, the British invasion of Tibet was also a matter of this year, but it ended a few months ago, and there was no storm in Changtu Province, just adding some after-dinner conversation. Why? Far away! In this old age when he died on the edge of the Kang, many people had never heard of Tibet as a place, so far away, it was as unrealistic as another world, and it also had a bit of a legend like the Heavenly Palace of the Underworld.

But this time it's different, this battle is at the door of these little people in Changtu Mansion!

The Russo-Japanese War, which is also a joke, was fought neither in Japan nor in Russia, but was fought in the three eastern provinces and in the area of Korea.

Why? Clear-sighted people understand that this is the bane that was planted after the First Sino-Japanese War when the three countries negotiated the return of Liao. Both Russia and Japan have taken the Qing Dynasty as meat on their plates.

Ever since Russia invaded the three eastern provinces under the guise of purging the Boxers, they all called Northeast China Yellow Russia. What does that mean? That is, the three eastern provinces are completely regarded as their own territory. Immediately after that, Tsarist Russia openly tore up the treaty on the settlement of the three eastern provinces,

In August of this year, Russia established the Far Eastern Governorate with Lushun as the center, and appointed a governor here. In other words, Russia has included the Northeast in its own territory. Its intention to annex the Northeast is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it.

Japan, which also covets the Kanto region, naturally cannot sit idly by and watch Russia take root here. The Qing court didn't want to see it either. Even behind this war, there is the current court fueling the flames. Zhang Zhidong even proposed: "With the help of Japan, with the help of Japanese generals, and with my troops, I can fight with the Russians." But Cixi said: "Now that the treasury is empty, how can it be used for cooking without rice, and why is it war?" In addition to the great pain, Liang Yuchuang was cautious about the war. ”

Port Arthur is the only ice-free port controlled by Russia in the Far East, and its strategic position is self-evident. The Japanese raided Arthur, but they did not mean to destroy this ice-free port, because the Japanese could not send enough ships to finalize the victory in one fell swoop, so they only severely damaged three Russian capital ships.

The war took place on the territory of the Great Qing State, in the three eastern provinces, and also in Korea, a vassal state of the Great Qing Dynasty. So what did the big purge do other than vacillate in chess?

On February 12, 1904 in the Gregorian calendar, on the twenty-seventh day of the twenty-ninth month of Guangxu, the fourth day of the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War, exactly 48 hours after Japan officially declared war on Russia, the Qing court issued an edict. The book said: "Now that Japan and Russia are at odds with each other, the imperial court thinks that they are both friendly countries, and should be handled according to the practice of external neutrality. ”

Outsider neutrality, what an outsider neutrality! What does that mean? In order to rob the family of money and food, the two groups of people each grabbed a knife and fought in the courtyard of the main house, and the main family did not even dare to put a fart, so they could only say to the two groups of people, "The two do not help each other." Not only that, the imperial court also informed the prefectures and counties in the eastern part of the Kwantung region that the east of the Liao River was a war zone between Japan and Russia, and that the armies of all routes were not allowed to intervene, and that "if the local militia groups caused trouble, they should be punished as a disorderly party." In other words, not only did the main family not plan to take care of it, but also sternly warned the family members that if anyone dared to make a move with these two gangs of robbers, I would cut off their heads first!

There is no such reason in the world.

It has only been four days of fighting, and Changtu Mansion is not on the front line of the battle like Yingkou, Lushun, and Dalian, and as a large rear, it has already become a mess! The Japanese, who originally held the grain depot, completely locked up the grain depot, collected all the grain into the army, forbade the buying and selling of the grain depot for storage, and did not plan to open the warehouse to release grain.

If it was just a closed official grain depot, it would have been forgotten, but the Japanese also forcibly requisitioned grain from private grain merchants and purchased it at a price of 30% of the market price at that time. Don't buy? Who would dare? All of a sudden, the price of grain in Changtu Mansion soared, to the point that even ordinary rich and noble families could not eat fine grain. On the other hand, stick noodles, which were originally intended to be fed to livestock, appeared in the grain merchant's shop and were bought at the price of serious grain.

Not only that, but the laborers who had gathered near the train station disappeared within two or three days. The Japanese did not hide this matter, and directly explained that they were recruited to work on the front line.

What kind of work? It was nothing more than to risk being shot and the scoop opened, to carry supplies for the Japanese and build trenches.

The United Nations Mission said that it was going to go to war, but with whom? The People's League is an organization formed by the Revolutionary Party in conjunction with the remnants of the Boxer Rebellion and the survivors who have been killed by foreigners. It's about fighting the Russians! Fight with the Japanese! Fight with all the foreigners who use knives and guns on the land of the Great Qing Kingdom!

The foreigners are well equipped. Whether it is an old man or a little devil, it is a regular army, and there is a country in the back to provide logistical support, guns and clothing, and other materials, there will definitely be no shortage of materials. But what about the people's union? Until now, it is still an organization wanted by the government, an anti-thief, and a chaotic party.

You must know that "when the cannon goes off, the gold is ten thousand taels", this sentence is not a joke. Fighting a war is spending money, food, clothing, shelter, transportation, guns and ammunition, these are all expenses. What does the United Nations rely on to sustain itself? First, some wealthy people joined in the group, and they really went bankrupt and gave full support to the revolutionary party and the people-United League. Then there is the collection of donations, which are collected in China and the Chinese compatriots abroad, and some of them are distributed to the Northeast People's Union.

To put it mildly, this is just a drop in the bucket. Up to now, more than half of the people of the People's Union do not have foreign guns in their hands, and they can only hold big swords and spears and fight with foreigners. Moreover, even among the people who have guns, there are many guns such as earthen guns and arquebuses, which have long been eliminated. The lack of uniformity in ammunition has also put great pressure on the logistics of the Mission.

Moreover, Lao Maozi and the Japanese army are all soldiers who are trained and able to fight on the battlefield. In the People's United League, who are the people who are on the front line? They are all from bitter backgrounds, they are farmers who survived the slaughter of the village by foreigners, hunters who rely on the sky for food, coolies who carry big bags for people, and car bosses who drive cars for people. There is no one to train, all with a brave and fierce energy, to rush to the battlefield to kill, to be honest, maybe ten lives of the people of the United Nations can be exchanged for the life of a foreign devil.

"Do you really think that relying on you, you can drive Lao Maozi and the little devil out of Kanto?" In a "flower room" in Chunfeng Garden, Huzi and Nalan Lang sat opposite each other.

Nalan Lang stuffed the written letter into the envelope, pushed it off the table, and said, "I never thought that the people and the United Nations could drive out the Tartars by themselves. ”

Huzi took the envelope, carefully hid it in the pocket of his clothes, and then said, "Strictly speaking, you are also a 'Tartar'. ”

Nalan Lang nodded slightly and said, "I know, I am not Han, I am Manchu, but I am a Chinese." ”

"You're sending the soldiers of the People's Union to their deaths." Huzi said, "People have guns, cannons, and are well-trained, so what do you use to fight with the Japanese and Russians?" Even if the People's Union is exhausted, the losses that can be caused to the Japanese and Russian armies may be nothing more than a drop in the bucket for them. ”

Nalan Lang pondered for a moment and said, "The imperial court has declared neutrality, and during the day today, you have also seen the notice of the official government. If we don't do it, then who will? You can't see what we've said in the letters, but it doesn't hurt to tell you. It's only been four days now, do you know what happened in the Northeast in the past four days? ”

Huzi's breathing became heavier, and he slowly shook his head. Nalan Lang tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop. He said: "At the forefront, in Lushun, Yingkou, Haicheng, and Dalian, in these places, many villages were burned down, many Qing nationals were displaced, many important towns were handed over, and the entire Kwantung region had fallen into the world of Japan and Russia. Whoever wins, we are all slaves of the country! ”

The more Nalan Lang spoke, the more excited he became, although he had been controlling his voice, Huzi could clearly see the green tendons protruding from his neck.

After another pause, Nalan Lang continued: "Huzi, you are a capable person, and you and your other family are capable people. I sincerely hope that you will join the United Nations and serve your country. This country is not the current Qing Dynasty, but our China! If foreigners don't leave, we Chinese can only be slaves for a day! Do you understand? ”

"I understand. That's why our ghost family is still sending you letters, and we haven't sued you to the government to exchange for rewards. Huzi frowned and said, "But have you figured it out?" Even if you do not clash head-on with Japan and Russia, and only rely on sneak attacks, with your manpower and material resources, you will only be moths to the fire and eggs to hit stones. Anyone will say the truth, and it's not you who go to the front line to kill the enemy. ”

"How do you speak?" Nalan Lang's personal chief Sui Xiaoyue pointed at Huzi's nose and scolded, "Who is Xiao Guogong?" It's not your turn to teach you such a lesson. ”

"What do you think made us do this?" Nalan Lang stood up with his support on the table, stretched out his hands, and grabbed Huzi's collar. Huzi is no longer the age when he first met Nalan Lang. At the age of eighteen after the New Year, he is already half a head taller than Nalan Lang. With Huzi's skills, it was easy to dodge, but he still let Nalan Lang hold on to his clothes.

Nalan Lang stared at Huzi's eyes and slowly spoke: "I was originally the concubine of Feng'en Fuguo, why do you think I want to join the People's Union?" Why do you think we are fighting with Lao Maozi and little devils? We can't beat it, but we've fought it for so many years! I'll tell you, Peng Hu, I'll make it clear to you. If one day, the last soldier of our people and regiment also falls in the way of the charge, then I will pick up the gun and continue the charge. Do you think I'm done when I'm dead? As long as there is one of the 40,000,000 people in China who is unwilling to be a slave to the country, then he is a revolutionary party and a democratic league. ”

Huzi broke away from Nalan Lang's hand, turned around and walked to the door, but stopped. He looked back and saw that Nalan Lang and Xiao Yue were still standing in place looking at him.

Hu Zichang exhaled—which made him feel lighter—and said to Nalan Lang, "Xiao Guogong, no, Nalan Lang, I believe what you say. ”
