The city of Beijing fell. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]- (Advertisement)
At the next moment when Cixi and Emperor Guangxu led the civil and military ministers to flee from Beijing City, the fall of Beijing City was doomed.
The two palaces were desperate to flee from Beijing City, and how could those shrimp soldiers and crab generals who were left behind in Beijing City hold on? Anyway, the Qing Dynasty is Aixinjueluo's family, not our family, and now the foreigners' artillery has been pulled to the city, and the black cannon muzzle is aimed directly at the Chaoyang 'gate'.
Today's Qing army defending the city, long since the dragon leaderless, Cixi stayed to defend the city, that kid actually ran faster than the two palaces, Cixi left Beijing City with his front foot, he ran out of Beijing City with a large amount of property on his back foot, and hid in the 'door' ditch.
Without the ministers in charge, the remaining soldiers were even more inflexible, and the artillery of the coalition army, as soon as it sounded, the Qing army on the head of Beijing was scattered, and the Eight-Nation Coalition occupied Beijing without much effort.
Wadsey was complacent and occupied the city of Beijing, which was no small honor, after all, it was the capital of a big country, and it was easily taken down by himself.
As soon as Vadesifu entered the city, he ordered the soldiers to open the robbery! Minister Klinder's great revenge, I know it's time to take revenge!
As a result, tens of thousands of Eight-Nation Coalition troops began to loot on a large scale, and the palace, the mansions of princes and nobles, shops, various ya'men', and landlords and wealthy families all became the targets of their looting.
Wadsey had just finished his order, and before he could gather any treasure, a telegram from His Majesty Kaiser Wilhelm II arrived.
"What? Let me immediately withdraw from the Eight-Nation Alliance, lead the German army back to Qingdao, and return to Germany? ”
Wadsey almost fainted, and Lao Tzu traveled thousands of miles
, finally rushed from Germany to China, just occupied the city of Beijing, has not seen any benefits, is about to return to Germany, His Majesty Wilhelm II is crazy?
Wadsey looked at the telegram and smashed the wine glass in his hand to pieces, this is impossible, huge benefits are about to arrive, how could His Majesty Wilhelm II give up such great benefits? What the hell is going on, could it be that the amazing wealth of the Great Qing Kingdom, we can't give it up like this?
Wadsey roared: "Quick, send a telegram to His Majesty William, I want to confirm, I want His Majesty's explanation, otherwise I will not retreat!" ”
Soon, the second telegram from Wilhelm II came back, and Wilhelm II replied directly in the telegram: Idiot! Immediately lead the German army to withdraw from China, it will be difficult to save your life if it is too late, this matter has been unanimously approved by the Minister Hui Yizhong, and it has also reached an agreement with the United States, the two countries will withdraw together, dare to delay the military order, just prepare to go to the military court!
Wadsey was so angry that he only scolded himself a few words, but still did not give an answer, what is going on, whether to go to war with China or not, and to discuss with the Americans?
Although Wadsey was angry, he did not dare to disobey Wilhelm II's will after all, after all, His Majesty's temper was very hot and capricious, and he would be unlucky if he didn't do it!
At this moment, Wadsey's staff officer ran in and said, "General, Mukden, a telegram from Minister Corifin!" ”
Wadsey was stunned for a moment, he only had a written relationship with Corign, and he didn't have any deep 'friendship', what did he do by sending a telegram to himself at this time, do you want to
What good will you do for him?
Suspiciously, Wadsey took the telegram and looked at it.
Colifen only revealed one news in the telegram, that is, the Chinese tiger General Zhang Yi decided to wave his troops south, cross the Shanhai Pass, and march into the Central Plains! At the same time declare war on all the powers that invade China! At the same time, Corfin demanded that Wadsey immediately withdraw from the city of Beijing, otherwise, thousands of German troops would probably face the boundless wrath of the Chinese tiger!
Wadsey was taken aback, there was no country in the world where the soldiers knew the horror of the Chinese tiger better than the Germans, not even the Japanese, and Wilhelm II and his generals held Zhang Yi in high esteem, especially after training a group of wolves for the Germans.
The German blue wolf has now become a trump card of the German Army, a sword that will play the greatest role in the future in the Great War!
As a German general, Wadsey has seen with his own eyes the power of the German blue wolf - the German bloodthorn, when an army battalion surrounded and suppressed dozens of people's bloodthorns in the mountains, as a result, two days down, the bloodthorn successfully jumped out of the encirclement of the army battalion, the army battalion was killed by the bloodthorn more than 200 people, for a time, the bloodthorn was famous among the high-level of the German ** circles, and all the high-level generals were full of awe of Zhang Yi, and they were able to train such a team. The elite general, that would be the most talented general in the world in this era, not one, because no one is capable of doing it!
Wadsey finally understood why His Majesty Wilhelm II asked him to withdraw his troops as soon as possible, this is a nest of right and wrong, once Zhang Yi's army crosses the Shanhai Pass, he is afraid that within two days, he will definitely be able to attack the city of Beijing and the people of China
The strength of the National Revolutionary Army, coupled with Zhang Yi's personal command, the coalition forces of various countries will absolutely not be able to stop the attack of others.
After all, even if the coalition forces of various countries work together, they are not a complete army, they come from different countries, each with their own evil intentions, and such a force can withstand the attack of the Chinese tigers? Kill Wadsey, he doesn't believe it!
Although he was salivating in the face of the huge wealth of Beijing City, at this time, Wadsey also had to consider withdrawing from the army, not to mention that the emperor's will could not be violated, even the huge pressure that Zhang Yi gave him, it was not ordinary!
In desperation, Wadsey had no choice but to make an appointment with the generals of various countries, and 'handed' the post of commander-in-chief of the coalition forces to the British Lieutenant General Seymour, leading the German army, and the American army withdrew all the way from Beijing, and retreated along the road to Tianjin.
Wadsey looked at the city of Beijing, silently mourning for the coalition of the great powers, these crazy bandits, still laughing at their thanklessness, no benefit, was played by the Kaiser like a pet dog, but what they didn't know was that a huge danger had loomed over them, Clinder had already said that the Chinese Tiger had mobilized two cavalry divisions, an infantry division, nearly 60,000 people, and 'advanced' into the Central Plains!
There are more than 10,000 Eight-Nation Coalition troops here in Beijing, and they absolutely can't resist the attack of others!
Waldsey is gone, and the six-nation coalition led by Seymour is even more excited, after all, now that there are two less countries to share their spoils, won't they be able to grab more? Seymour and other generals indulged their soldiers to step up their plunder, and the city of Beijing was bitter and gloomy
Tens of thousands of ordinary people have died at the hands of the coalition forces, and the city of Beijing has become a hell on earth! Zhang Yi held the newspaper sent to him by the cavalry in his hand, smashed the cup, and said coldly: "Order, the army will march immediately, send troops to Shanhaiguan, no matter what way, within one day, grab Shanhaiguan for me!" ”
