96. Acceptance of the Armistice (2)

Foreigners have always been like this, the "sovereignty" and "governing power" can be clearly distinguished, whether it is at this time for Vietnam, the British believe that Vietnam belongs to China at this stage, which is true, but you must also respect the French rule in Saigon for more than 100 years, what kind of ghost logic is this, whoever is whom, there is no reason for the separation of ownership and use rights, and this "sovereignty" also respects the "governing power" of a robber?

It is difficult for the Chinese in this era to understand this kind of thinking, "the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's courtier", it has always been like this, where do the two divisions come from? Either it's mine, or it's yours. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

But the Empress Dowager Cixi who came in later generations knew too much about foreigners, and in the Tianyi Dynasty in later generations, the American emperor didn't deal with bends like this, she was really surprised. She comforted a few slightly frustrated ministers, "It's okay to keep the French in Saigon, but somewhere else, I won't give in, tell Jinbao to prepare in the south, in case the French are still ready to chirp at the negotiating table, then we will act again, I will attack in the south, as long as I don't attack Saigon?" ā€

"In international affairs, who said that what foreigners say, what we have to do? If we blindly obey the British, I am afraid that they will also look down on us, put on those stinky shelves, thinking that they are born overlords, there is no natural overlord in this world, and in the future, there will be a great power that will take advantage of the east wind to bring Britain down and become the world hegemon, I hope," the Empress Dowager Cixi glanced at the ministers, "This country will be our Qing Dynasty." ā€

"Okay, send an order to Zuo Zongtang," the Empress Dowager Cixi clapped her hands and gave her order, "The seventh town in Nanqi will stop attacking on the spot, everything in Beiqi will remain unchanged, some French people and the small cities stationed in the city will be defeated within two days, and those that cannot be defeated within two days will be forgotten, and the overall situation of Hengqi will no longer be changed." In addition, Jinbao should be careful in everything in Nanqi," the Empress Dowager Cixi said a few more words, "Now that he has a big victory, if he has any setbacks in the south, it will affect the overall situation of the negotiations, so be careful in everything, do not seek merit but seek no fault, but don't be soft, the Vietnamese will make trouble again, and they will all be killed." The Empress Dowager Cixi got into the carriage, and there was a murderous aura in her calm words, "There is no need to be polite to them." ā€

So continue to move forward, Langsheng front line arrived in a short time, here still retains the previous state of disarray, the Empress Dowager Cixi, who was originally very calm, saw the scene of Rusi's slaughter, and couldn't help but straighten her look, to get off the place, Zuo Zongtang and others were already waiting, Zuo Zongtang was about to report the situation in Langzhuang Lake, but was stopped by the Empress Dowager Cixi, "The battle report will be talked about later, let's go see the wounded soldiers first." ā€

This is something that has never happened before, Zuo Zongtang is inevitably a little sudden, "The wounded barracks are very dirty, and the queen mother's body is ten thousand gold, I am afraid that there will be a collision." ā€

"There's nothing to ram into." The Empress Dowager Cixi walked straight to the front, and the palace maids and eunuchs of the palace guarded a mighty group of people, "I came to Vietnam, naturally not to go to the battlefield, but to supervise the army, you have done an excellent job on the battlefield, I don't have to talk much, and I don't have the military talent to talk more, then I naturally come to ****, when I get to the battlefield, I have to take a look at those injured soldiers, quickly lead the way." ā€

Zuo Zongtang knew the character of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and had already decided to do something, so he would not listen to other people's opinions anymore, at this time, he could only lead the way in front, and after a while, he arrived at a smoky place, countless iron cans were gurgling and boiling Chinese herbs on the fire, a group of doctors wearing white bibs and white sleeves were running back and forth or taking care of the iron cans, she walked into a tent surrounded by a fence, there were already three or five injuries lying in it, they may not know the Empress Dowager Cixi but they recognized the auspicious clothes on her body, moreover, The women who appeared here at this time, except for the Empress Dowager Cixi, there would be no one else!

Several people hurriedly wanted to stand up and bow down, but were stopped by the Empress Dowager Cixi, "Quickly support them, if you are not in good health, don't be polite." The eunuchs and the generals under Zuo Zongtang held down these wounded soldiers, "You are all the imperial court, you are the heroes of the country, and you are needed to salute there, so I should salute you bloody soldiers." ā€

The smell of blood in the tent was very strong, Sun Yuwen's face was already very pale, and he was nauseated by the smell of blood, but looking at the Empress Dowager Cixi's casual appearance, she had to hold back, the Empress Dowager Cixi saw that several people were seriously injured, especially a young man in his twenties who was closest to her, the entire right leg below the knee, all of them did not fall off, but there was an empty trouser tube, and the abdomen was also bandaged with a thick bandage, and most of the blood stains were on it, and the Empress Dowager Cixi walked into this young man, His face was a little panicked and distorted due to pain, and a lot of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, and the Empress Dowager Cixi asked the doctor next to him, "His leg was blown up by a cannon?" Is there a big deal with the stomach injury? ā€

"The leg was injured by a cannon," this is the most famous national hand doctor with a knife wound from the Tai Hospital, and the prelude is not very panicked, he said calmly, "The wound in the abdomen was hit by a musket, and the bullet has been taken out, but there is some damage to the small intestine, what happens next, we have to wait to see if it will become inflamed and pus, if it is not inflamed, there will be no major problem." ā€

"Inflammation is indeed a big problem, this matter must be dealt with in the future, I remember that there is an anti-inflammatory drug, but I don't know how to get it, when I have to talk to those professors from abroad, Lianying will remember this matter, otherwise I will forget it when I go back," the Empress Dowager Cixi looked at the restrained young man, "Fighting with the French, are you afraid?" ā€

"I'm afraid, but I have to fight, it's an order," said the young soldier, "I've wanted to fight the French for a long time, even if I lose this leg, but it's worth it to see the new army defeat the French!" ā€

When it came to the battle, he forgot to be restrained for a while, and a few wounded soldiers on the side nodded in the same way, the Empress Dowager Cixi's expression was a little complicated, and he nodded, "For the country, I have nothing to say, if I say that I pity you, it is too hypocritical; If you say that you are loyal to the country, as it should be, I can't say it, but you can rest assured, you can rest assured, I promise here that those who are loyal to the country will definitely be taken care of.
