Chapter 529: The Little Night That Rises When I Hear the Wind
After learning that Political Commissar Lu had gone wrong in South Africa's first large-scale political propaganda program, Zhao Yi immediately adjusted the deployment of troops in the Northeast China Theater.
First of all, all the small troops that were still disgusting the little emperor and the old witch in the Yantai area of Shandong Province and ensuring the migration operation, and then the Big Mac BB63 stopped reeling in the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, and began to deliberately retreat in the direction of Dalian Bay, so as to prevent the British from jumping over the wall to attack this port, where they had been operating for a long time, where a large number of factories had gathered.
To the north, the indigenous forces under the control of the Crossing Masses also received orders to temporarily break away from contact with the Qing army's Iketang Abu and return to the garrison to build fortifications to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos to attack the green paint area.
After the small Western European states condemned the Boers for shooting prisoners of war and insinuated criticism of the Song Dynasty's involvement in South African affairs, the Manchu emperor and his reformist staff came out next.
Different from the semi-confused state in the original time and space where only a small window was opened and the door was closed to build a car, after witnessing the coquettish operation of the "pseudo-Song Dynasty" in this time and space and dancing between the countries of Europa, those who could only play tricks to fool the little emperor were forced to spare some of their energy to pay attention to the so-called "current affairs" under pressure.
The news that Young Master Qiu had passed through the British colonial authorities in South Africa and brought the news of the assassination of the British colonel back to his homeland and caused an uproar in public opinion was finally brought to the ears of the little emperor by those flattering reformers.
"Your Majesty, that Yingyi is the chief of the foreign Yi, and the pseudo-Song Xiaoxiao has a gap with it, and it is bound to be attacked by the countries of Europa, we only need to use a little means to sit back and wait for the benefit of the fisherman, and the pseudo-Song Dynasty stubborn moss can be eradicated in a few days." The official fan Kang Youwei began to fool the little emperor again.
"Oh? What is Kang Aiqing's plan? As soon as he heard that he could break the sharp thorn that was about to reach his ancestral grave, the little emperor also came to his senses.
"Promise the Rakshasa people heavy benefits, let them join Yingyi in the north and south to fight the pseudo-Song bandits entrenched in Lushun. He also bribed the Bruce (Prussians) to withdraw from the offensive and defensive alliance signed with the Puppet Song. Guan Mikang said.
Dao 1,000 said 10,000, these so-called reform parties did not have any price in their hands that foreigners could look down on, and Kang Youwei could only fool the little emperor to continue to cede land or sell his interests in exchange for foreigners to pick a side between the Qing Dynasty and the "pseudo-Song Dynasty".
These sour people who glanced at the world through the small window really thought that those white skins outside were so easy to fool, don't you see that the "pseudo-Song" can lead them by the nose with only a weak woman?
Obviously, the sourers don't know anything about power, and the foreigners may happily swallow the heavy profits, but there must be no good fruit to eat in the Qing Dynasty.
Let's take a look at the Paris Peace Conference a few years later in the history of the original time and space, what did China, as the victorious country of World War I, fish? What kind of diplomacy are you talking about as a weak country!?
But this time the little emperor is really on top, he has always been very taboo in the past, but this time he even started to think differently.
The Restoration Movement organized by the Reform Party does not seem to have rapidly increased the national power of the Qing Dynasty, while the influence of the "Pseudo-Song" on the royal land under his rule has become more and more intense.
After being tossed around by Li Bingheng in a messy manner, people in many places who couldn't survive rushed to Yantai one after another, trying to cross the sea to beg for a living outside the Guanwai controlled by the "pseudo-Song Dynasty".
The little emperor also issued an order to allocate funds to assist the governor of Shandong in disaster relief, but under the operation of the Qing bureaucratic system that was rotten to the roots, there was not much money really being implemented, and a large number of bankrupt peasants with their families still crossed the sea to go to Guanwai every day.
In Fujian and Liangguang, which have a tradition of making a living overseas, a large number of young and strong people also migrated to Borneo, which is said to have been controlled by the "Pseudo-Song" century, and their hometowns are no longer suitable for survival because of the harsh taxes levied by the Manchurians.
The people's act of voting with their feet did not wake up the Manchu ruling class headed by the little emperor Lao Witch, who threw the blame for this evil result on the "pseudo-Song", as if as long as there was no "pseudo-Song", their own rule would last forever.
Mao Zi was very surprised by the fat sent to the door by Lord Man, and the envoy to the Qing Dynasty, Casini, sent the enthusiastic Kang Youwei away with ambiguous words.
Fools know that at this time, even if Lord Manchu says that he wants to send the palace to you, don't be moved, as long as the fleet of the Great Song Royal Navy entrenched in the South Pacific and the Far East has not sunk, you will play a drama for me to honor the treaty?
Do you really think that the slogan of the Great Song Dynasty people "never compromise on all territorial issues" and the main guns of the 16-inch battleships are here to play and watch? Anyway, in order to test the determination of the Great Song people to defend the territory, we have planted a lot of people in Siberia, and even the imperial uncle has only redeemed it.
With this idle time to listen to the braggadocio of the weak Manchus, I might as well take advantage of the escalation of the conflict between Britain and Song to transfer my forces back to Europe, and see if I can recover some of the territory and rights lost in the Crimean War.
As for Hans, although he was the first to issue a statement condemning the barbaric act of the Boers in shooting prisoners of war, they were not stupid enough to tear up the Great Song people who had all-round cooperation with them for the sake of your piece of paper cake, my lord? What is the privilege of Shandong, and Dalian Bay is separated by a small strait that starts in the morning and evening, and the people of the Great Song Dynasty don't nod their heads, what is the use of the privileges you want there? Can it carry a 16-inch main gun bombardment or can it bring you a series of advanced military technology?
Of course, Mao Zi and Hans did not refuse the Manchurian people, after all, the Great Song people are now at the peak of the sunset, and there are still variables in this, no one can say what the two sides will fight, to what extent?
As for Eagle Sauce, because the Great Song people have not expressed their stance on the issue of declaring war on Spain, they also want to use this matter to put pressure on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Great Song Dynasty.
All of the above gave Guan Mikang a kind of false impression that the "pseudo-Song Dynasty" was already facing the situation of the wall falling down and everyone pushing him, and he hurriedly reported to the little emperor his recent "outstanding" achievements in diplomacy.
Well, now it's okay, the "pseudo-Song" finally ended up angry with foreign Yi like a long hair, it seems that it won't take long for me to solve this henchman's trouble, and the little emperor finally took the words of the official Mi Kang seriously.
"What's the situation? Did the adults drink fake wine en masse? Where did all this scum come from? Zhao Yi asked after looking at the report submitted by the Military Intelligence Department on the Qing army's recruitment of troops outside the pass.
"What's that? It's not been long since this Nima beat up their new army in Shandong, why can't he think of sending people away? Xiao Fei picked up the report that Zhao Yi threw on the table.
"It seems that he has also received the wind, most likely because he knows that someone in the British family is going to war with us because of Lao Lu's mistake, and this is to take the opportunity to destroy us!" Wang He said.
"That's why I ask them if they have drunk fake wine, and even if we are really destroyed by the alliance of the great powers, what can they get? Aren't you waiting to continue to be colonized and divided? Could it be that the old fox can't see the situation clearly? Zhao Yi said.
"Oh, you haven't read the report at the bottom, have you? Li Hongzhang applied for an envoy to other countries. Wang He said.
"Oh, I'll go, Jinnyima is an old fox! I'm afraid that the old witch forced him to start a war with us, right? Xiao Fei said.
"Combined with the information sent back by Rong Lu, I estimate that most of it is like this. Therefore, based on the above information, it is not difficult to see that the Qing army is currently gathering forces and intends to give us the so-called 'fatal blow' when the conflict with the British escalates. Wang He said.
"Oh, and besides, it's not just the Manchurian family who drinks fake wine, but there are also some people in the Footbasin Chicken family who are not very clever and advocate following the British to make a homeopathic attack." Wang He said.
"Hey, the Boers killed a stupid colonel, and really Nima brought out all the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods!" Xiao Fei said.
