Chapter 41: Westerners
When the Empress Dowager Cixi heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned: "These Westerners are too hateful. The mourning family has spent so much money, and they have only sold us the weapons of the backward generation. So, foreign devils are really too bad. ”
"Those of you who are courtiers should also know the bad intentions of Westerners, and be careful when dealing with these Westerners in the future. ”
Cixi is still quite level in terms of infighting. But it didn't get to the top either. Why can she control half the world's Qing court. To put it bluntly, the Manchurians of the Qing court back then were all a bunch of fools. It's rare that there is one fool who is not stupid. And among the Han people, there are a lot of people, but what is the use. Under the Manchu system, no matter how powerful the Han people are, they can't climb on the heads of the Manchus.
"Li Hongzhang. ”
"In. Li Hongzhang, who was standing on the side, stood up.
"The matter of training the new army is entrusted to you. When dealing with Westerners, I will leave the matter of borrowing troops to you. ”
"Moreover, it is possible to pass on passwords to Westerners. As long as they can kill the young king of the Taiping army. We can give them more treaty ports, and we can give them more money. ”
"Yes. Li Hongzhang stood up.
Just now, although Cixi was asking Zeng Guofan's question.
However, the Zeng family made a big mistake and buried half of the elite of the Qing court.
Moreover, the Zeng family was too strong, which had long made Cixi jealous.
Therefore, in the future, Zeng Guofan will be an idle minister honestly.
However, Li Hongzhang also knew that even if Cixi pushed herself. It's not a good time. At this time of year, the Taiping Army is too popular, where is there so easy to resist.
Alas!
After Cixi said this, she suddenly said: "The young king of the Taiping army claims to be a god. But the mourning family felt that he was some kind of monster. Otherwise, we will find some superior people to deal with him. ”
The ministers all feel ridiculous!
What!
Talk about the practices of the masters above the court!
However, some people think carefully that the young king of the Taiping Army is not like a human being in the first place. Maybe the thing of finding someone to do it is really useful for him. As a result, the Qing court began to invite high-ranking people from all walks of life.
What trumpet cult of the high-level wisdom of the king.
What is the leader of the Quanzhen sect, Gan Qing.
What Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master Zhengyi Sect advocates the wheel of punishment.
What a master of Zen Buddhism, Master Zhihai.
There is also Liu Hu, the strongest person in the Northeast who jumps Daxian.
A large number of masters gathered in the capital.
"The young king of the Taiping Army is a demon star in troubled times. Wait for me to deal with this person. "King Zhida Ming was the first to jump out, and used a large amount of silver from the Qing court to do three battles. It is said that there was a snowfall when the process was completed.
"Snow Frozen Monster. Where do the monsters go? King Zhida Ming shouted in a deep voice, after finishing the Fa, King Zhida Ming confidently walked to the Empress Dowager Cixi, who was watching the Fa on the side: "Queen Mother, I have already done the Fa." Within this year, the Young Heavenly King will die. And seven holes bleed. ”
When the Empress Dowager Cixi heard this, she couldn't help but be excited for a while: "Okay, good, the master has worked hard." The mourning family has long known that the young king of the Taiping army is abnormal. I knew that I would have looked for the master directly, so why spend so much unjust money, find any Western countries, and bow my head and pay more. ”
"That's it. Zhida Ming Wang had the bearing of a master: "To deal with monsters, we still need those of us who are masters." Western firearms are powerful. But in this regard, it is far less than what I am waiting for. ”
Gan Qing, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect, the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master Zhengyi Sect advocates the wheel of the Sect, the master of Zen Buddhism, Master Zhihai, and Liu Hu, who danced the great immortal in the northeast, saw that King Zhida Ming had finished loading all the force, and did not leave them a chance to perform at all, and secretly scolded in his heart, this thief is bald.
However, the benefits were all received by King Zhida Ming alone, and they could only share some soup and water.
The remaining masters can only look forward to He Xuan's immortality this year, in that case, Zhida's lie will be broken. It's their turn to come on stage and fool around.
Zhida Ming Wang looked at a few peers and couldn't help but sneer. He had already heard that the imperial court had found Western countries and asked them to help deal with He Xuan. The foreign guns and cannons of Western countries are more likely, so no matter how powerful He Xuan is, he can't bear it.
Even in case, He Xuan really didn't die. That doesn't matter.
He has been fooling Cixi for a long time, and when the time comes, he will just make excuses. He believed in his ability to fool.
......
Stay Bay Island side.
At this time, the Taiping army had already recovered from the carnival.
The 20,000 Qing troops who surrendered were thoroughly used and trained together with the Taiping army.
He Xuan also resumed his usual leisurely life, and the affairs of government affairs were handed over to Shang Yanyan and Dong Xiaomiao to deal with together.
At this time, a maid ran over: "Young Heavenly King, Young Heavenly King, Zhong Wang invited you to come over and say that there is something important to discuss." ”
Zhongwang Li Xiucheng usually doesn't bother himself with trivial things, so let's go.
After a pillar of incense, He Xuan came to the place where King Zhong worked.
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't we capture more than 30 steamships from the Qing army? At that time, we thought they were all from the Qing army, and we got these steamboats. We can greatly increase our strength at sea. But just now, an Englishman came to the door. He said that more than 20 of the more than 30 ships were from Britain, France, and Germany. We want to return these ships to them immediately. ”
"It's a matter of Western affairs, and Weichen doesn't dare to make decisions without permission. So bring in the Young Heavenly King. ”
This is 1868.
In this era, the Western countries are the most numerous countries on the planet.
In this era, the Western countries and other countries on the earth formed an absolute weapon generation gap.
The weapons of the Western countries are backward and obsolete. Selling to other countries is also the most advanced and the most sought-after.
Western countries have a high number of people in the world.
At that time, the national strength of the Qing State was extremely weak.
No matter what, you must not mess with foreigners, this is the general mentality of everyone.
The Qing court did not dare to provoke foreigners.
When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was at its strongest, it did not dare to provoke foreigners.
In the textbooks that He Xuan had studied before, there was also a bias to "Daotai Sees Foreigners", and at the end of the Qing Dynasty, Daotai was already quite a big official. But even such an official, when he sees an ordinary foreigner, is weak on the soles of his feet.
It shows how high the foreigners are at this time!
Foreigners, in China, opened one concession after another.
Even, the head of China's customs is a foreigner.
Therefore, when it comes to foreigners, Li Xiucheng, the loyal king, does not dare to make a decision. He is still a little empty in his heart, afraid of Western countries.
He Xuan came from the 21st century, when all the Western countries had declined, although they still held the brand of rich countries, but in terms of hard power, they were not as good as China. For the Western countries, there is naturally no fear at all.
"British, let's meet them. ”
