"What's the matter?" Qingyu was quite happy when she looked at Yangchun March, but Xiao Huangzi suddenly invited her to the Heart Cultivation Palace. Now Xianfeng is not a special thing, she will not specially ask her to come out to meet these 'Xiangye', she looks at the people below, there is still Li Yong? Her heart sank, Li Yong was still in the household department, and he had already become a waiter, specializing in preparing and reviewing the budget of the military department. And this time he called him, indicating that the military department had something to do again.

"The naval divisions are preparing for exercises against the Beiyang Fleet, but they have found that the fleets of various countries have also moved." Chery came out of the queue and bowed back to Qingyu.

"Have you ever had an ambassador in the ward?" Qingyu thought about it, except for the Spring Festival reunion, she hadn't officially summoned the ladies of various countries for three months. At this time, she hated herself for not learning history well, and she didn't remember what happened in March of the tenth year of Xianfeng. However, what can she do, now that she has changed too much, where does she know what has changed and what has not changed, or will it be because she has changed the antecedents, so ten years later, there will be another retribution?

Yes, they don't know, but from some of the phenomena, it seems that they are preparing a big collaborative project. Participating countries, there are nearly ten! This time it was Li Hongzhang who made an exception.

Li Hongzhang didn't dare to say where those phenomena came from. There are all kinds of things here, and there are some things that still can't be said. For example, there is a secret operation group in the Imperial Palace, and this team only knows about the emperor, the queen, and Chery plus himself.

And the establishment of this group was Qingyu's idea, and the group is divided into two parts, one part is the decryption team, and the other is the action group. Speaking of which, this is still Qingyu's inspiration from watching spy war dramas. She also believes that at this time, there will be no shortage of spies sent by various countries in their own yamen.

Therefore, when Qingyu asked Britain and France to fully lay telegraph lines in China, she had already begun to train decryption personnel, and she translated all kinds of telegrams and decryption books by herself. He even secretly invited telegraph cryptography experts from Britain at a high price. At that time, the declassification team found out the intentions of the other side from the telegrams of the countries. By the way, change the secrecy of your telegram at all times.

After all these years of operation, they have almost the most powerful decryption department in the world at the moment. Moreover, the number of people is increasing, and the top students of the mathematics departments around the country are constantly being called in, and this money is also from the inner treasury, because if you go from the household department, you will be found out by someone who has a heart to find out that they have disappeared funds, and finally guess that they still have a secret department.

And the action group is simple, there will be a large number of staff in the embassies of various countries, Qingyu is educated in spy warfare hundreds of years later, and the spy war analysis she knows is unimaginable in the embassies of various countries at this time. Moreover, not only did they infiltrate the embassies of various countries, but they also found people to make friends with the ambassadors and the personal male and female servants of the ambassadors' wives. Get all kinds of useful and useless information from them, and bring it back for analysis.

Qingyu was originally a businessman, she had studied commercial espionage courses and business psychology, and she also used them to train the students of the Academy. At this time, the secret group of the Imperial Court did not dare to say that it could be compared with the military commanders during the war of aggression against China, but in terms of foresight, there was no comparison between other countries.

"So, you mean, now we're going to prepare." Qingyu knew that the more she was at this time, the more she couldn't expose their secret department, so she decided not to dwell on the questions she was thinking about, she only asked the follow-up.

"Yes, it just so happens that we are preparing for military exercises, and we can follow international practice to send a note to various countries in advance, and we will hold military exercises in the North Sea, and troops from all over the country will participate." Chery looked at everyone and said softly.

Qingyu understood what they meant, the military exercise has been talking about it for almost three months, and at the beginning of the year, she wanted to change the seventh child back, but it was not so easy to change, so the military exercise was put on the agenda. However, from the design to the implementation of a military exercise, it is not possible to say that it can be fought. At this time, preparations are being made everywhere. And at this point, what do countries want to do? Taking advantage of their military exercises to catch them off guard?

"The secret monk Greenqin has entered Beijing, and the Beijing camp and the Tianjin departments are ready." Qingyu weighed everything in her chest, raised her head, and looked at Xianfeng.

"Do you think they'll go straight to the capital?" Xianfeng grinded his teeth gently.

"Over the years, they should know very well that no matter where they fight, there is no pain in our skin, but for them, one fight is one less piece of turf. On the contrary, even if Tianjin is an open port, these foreign businessmen have not developed greatly. In addition, if Tianjin is really broken, for us, it is the soldiers coming to the city, and we have to obediently negotiate peace with them. ”

"What do you say?" Xianfeng was still expressionless.

Over the years, he didn't know why Qingyu was so guarded against foreigners, and told the people everywhere that the country's leaders were sacrosanct. He really felt that these foreigners were paper tigers, back then, they jumped out by themselves, but they didn't even dare to fire a shot. Let them lose sight of Japan. At this time, the population of Japan was still decreasing, and some people had already proposed to let them emigrate, but they did not care about it on the grounds that the territory of the people was inviolable. Now they are moving again, but Xianfeng doesn't believe that they will go to Tianjin.

"The minister suspects that they want Japan!" Li Hongzhang hesitated for a moment and said softly.

"Now that all the Japanese are concentrated on the island of Honshu, the three islands of Shikoku, Kyushu, and Hokkaido have been leased to us to establish special administrative regions. There are also large fleets stationed there. We surrounded the other scattered islands. Do you think they're targeting the continent? Qingyu frowned.

At the beginning, the war was very measured, and slowly people from all over the country drove people to the capital, and the women and children who stayed in various places were also consumed in the war. Of course, Qingyu didn't want to admit that her order at that time was that there should be no Japanese on these islands.

Regardless of the relocation or anything, only the four largest islands in Japan were Honshu Island, and all the other islands were leased to China, and China would send a large amount of grain and seeds to the successor emperor at this time to feed his remaining people. Now Li Hongzhang said that these countries are targeting Japan's Honshu Island, which is not a few, so what are the benefits?

At the beginning, she used international law to lease from the Japanese, and those were all based on law, didn't Britain and Portugal 'lease' Hong Kong and Macao away in this way? Therefore, at this time, even if the countries want these three islands, they have to defeat the powerful sailors they have planted around the islands of Japan, meet the Japanese "emperor", and transfer those benefits to the countries. But that difficulty is no more difficult than playing Tianjin. If she were a combined fleet of nations, she wouldn't let go of the near and far. Defeating Xianfeng is much better than defeating that foolish emperor.
