Cixi ran to the Chengde summer resort in one breath on the night of the air raid before stopping to rest, if it weren't for the Houdang who stayed in the capital to chase after dawn and inform him of the news that no one was attacking the city, I am afraid that the old witch would have gone straight to Chang'an.

Cixi stopped fleeing west but did not return to the Forbidden City immediately, she really couldn't afford to lose that face, the dignified Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty fled because someone burned a theater garden and smashed a section of the city wall.

Now the question is, can Cixi save face by hiding in the Chengde Summer Resort? The answer is, yes! At least in Cixi's opinion, it can. She asked her to move forward the time of her arrival at the Chengde Summer Resort by two days, which means that she wanted to create a false impression to the outside world, and when the threatening words of the "Pseudo-Song" reached the Prime Minister's Yamen, she was already happy in the Chengde Summer Resort.

As for the razing of the Grand Theater of the Summer Palace and the destruction of the walls of the capital, it was all the incompetence of the minions and had nothing to do with her. What? You say it's covering your ears and stealing the bell? Dear, does Cixi still do less of this kind of thing to deceive herself?

However, Cixi overestimated her influence, and public opinion did not pay attention to the day she left the Forbidden City for the Chengde Summer Resort. The people's attention was focused on the sound of "rolling thunder" over the capital and the Zhili Plain that night, as well as the earth-shattering explosions.

The fact that the Grand Theater of the Summer Palace was razed to the ground could have blocked the news from the outside world, after all, that place was not for ordinary people to go. But the city wall was blown down and the roofs of many ministers' residences were lifted, so it was really difficult to cover up, as long as you are not blind, who can not see the ruins after the air raids?

At first, the common people, who had never seen an air raid, began to rumor that it was because the emperor was immoral and was condemned, after all, in the era of superstitious ghosts and gods, everyone loved to push natural disasters in this direction. Guangxu is happy to see the people think so, after all, he would rather be "immoral" than let the people know that this was done by the "pseudo-Song Dynasty".

However, it was an American reporter who went to deliver a message to the Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen, and if you think about how many reporters in the Eagle Sauce family are safe, how can such a big news girl be tight-lipped like a bottle?

As a result, Guangxu's guilty edict here is still being polished, and the news that these ruins are caused by the attack of the Great Song Dynasty has spread to everyone. Some good deeds even added fuel to the description of how the Great Song Dynasty invited the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Soldiers to use the Heavenly Thunder and Heavenly Fire to bomb the city walls and the minister's mansion, although the Yankees speculated in the newspapers that these explosions were so-called by the spies of the Great Song Dynasty who infiltrated the city, but this version of the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals is in line with the taste of the Chinese public.

In the next few years, after the Wuxu Reform, those senior brothers and sisters of the Boxers can still entangle millions of believers with their upper body to invite the gods, which shows how popular the theory of gods and ghosts is in China.

Then the Manchurians found out about this head, and the facts began to develop in their unfavorable. The Chinese people all think that the emperor is the Ninety-Five Supreme True Dragon Son of Heaven, but have you ever seen a true dragon who was beaten by heavenly thunder and heavenly fire? You're not a Taoist priest who meows to the ground, you're the emperor, what kind of thunder and fire do you recruit? So rumors began to spread that the one in the Forbidden City was not a real dragon, and it was estimated that the one who could invite the heavenly soldiers and generals was orthodox.

Where did Cixi get this kind of rumor, isn't this going to dig up my roots! Check, check thoroughly, kill one if you catch one! Don't look at the old witch who is very timid, but her heart can be ruthless!

However, this time is different, and after the defeat of the Manchurians in the Sino-Japanese War, they were saddled with huge war reparations, which were eventually passed on to the poor people. Under the weight of all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, these people have been overwhelmed, and the old witch ordered a thorough investigation of the source of the rumors and added a reason for extortion to those officials, and finally some people began to gather people to rebel.

Didn't you accuse us of being spies of the Great Song Dynasty? Okay, Lao Tzu will be a spy of the Great Song Dynasty this time! The anti-Qing forces in various places waved the banner of the "Great Song Dynasty" one after another, and for a while, the Manchurian adults could not figure out whether the "Pseudo-Song Dynasty" had really sent people into the Guannai to make trouble.

"Miss Huang, your country's organization of armed forces against the Manchus in many places in the Zhili region violates our previous agreement to maintain the status quo in the Guannai." O'Gener protested to Huang Xiaolei about the riot with the Great Song flag in the area controlled by the Manchurians in Guannai.

"Although we admire and sympathize with the peasants who spontaneously oppose tyranny, they have no direct relationship with us, and we have not provided them with any weapons and equipment, and your accusations are baseless." Huang Xiaolei said.

"But they all carry unicorn flags...... O'Gner said.

"Mr. Minister, if our warships are to be robbed with the flag of rice, will we be able to put all the blame on your country?" Huang Xiaolei interrupted Ogna's words.

"And Mr. Minister, our previous agreement was that we would maintain the status quo when no foreign power interfered in the affairs of the Kannai. However, there is evidence that the Manchus and Tsarist Russia signed the "Sino-Russian Secret Treaty", and it seems that the premise for our implementation of the agreement no longer exists. Huang Xiaolei continued.

"This, you ......" Ogna was speechless for a while, strictly speaking, this agreement between Tsarist Russia and the Manchu Qing Dynasty did destroy the basis of the agreement between Song and Russia.

"We reserve the right to counter this agreement signed between Tsarist Russia and the Manchus, including the possibility of taking necessary action in the Guannai. Of course, the current uprisings against Manchu tyranny in Manchu-controlled areas have nothing to do with the Great Song government, but I do not guarantee that our government will not help these organizations in the future. "That Song Ying agreement was revised by Huang Xiaolei's hand, can she not know how many back doors there are?

Damn it! Another hard-line nationalist! It's that damn creed again, Huaxia is the Huaxia of the Chinese people! They are also of the yellow race, but the diplomatic cunning of these Great Song people is higher than those Manchus with pigtails behind their heads, I don't know how many grades! Ogna cursed.

John Bull was worried that the Great Song Dynasty would take the opportunity to infiltrate Guannai and expand the scope of the colony. The Great Song people had an advantage over the Caucasian race, and they were very likely to annex large amounts of Manchu territory. This possibility can be seen from the fact that the rebel groups in the Manchu-controlled areas are waving their unicorn flags, and Western missionaries have been preaching in China for many years, have you seen that peasant uprising pro-Western? Don't make up the numbers for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who tampered with the Bible themselves, their faith has nothing to do with God!

But worry is worry, and the opium cow has nothing to do with the crossing people. The agreement is a thing that the strong use to restrain the weak, and John Bull has too many interests entangled, even if their previous agreement did not leave a back door, John Bull will not be able to turn his face with the crossing for this kind of thing.

It would be no good for John Bull to completely extrapolate Hans from a country with a battleship of the BB63 class.
