"I have never seen such a war, how many shells does this Chinese army have? Is this not money? Also, this Xuan Yuemeng, two years younger than my child, why can she be so crazy, is this still a child? How can such a young child create a country? Do the people of this country listen to him? What are we going to do now, to reinforce the British? Wu Changqing was also very nervous, and his crackling mouth couldn't stop. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sheng Xuanhuai, Chen Qin, and a large group of cronies and staff also arrived outside Li Hongzhang's study, and everyone did not dare to say anything, and they heard Wu Changqing talking alone in a room.

Li Hongzhang sighed, "You go down first, without my order, just press the army, I guess Xuan Yuemeng will not fight the governor's yamen, and his father is also here on an errand!" ”

"But Xuan Hongtao hasn't come back yet, Xuan Hongtao originally went to peace talks, which is good, as soon as he passed, his son went crazy and started a war with the Qing Dynasty!" Wu Changqing obviously had no intention of leaving.

Li Hongzhang was upset, and said angrily: "Is this an ordinary child? This is Xuan Yuemeng, don't use a child to see him, otherwise you will be a child yourself! Go down first, strictly guard the intersections, and don't go to the concession easily! ”

Wu Changqing saw that Li Hongzhang was angry, so he retreated.

Chen Qin wiped his sweat, he was also the one who went to negotiate, but he came back, and Xuan Hongtao didn't come back, now that such a big thing happened, can you not be afraid?

Sheng Xuanhuai glanced at Chen Qin, sneered, and said to Li Hongzhang: "My lord, we should still cooperate with the British to fight, no matter whether the British can withstand it or not, the British still have soldiers and horses in our Qing Dynasty, and the British national strength is strong, and we will definitely add soldiers and horses to investigate this matter afterwards!" ”

Li Hongzhang waved his hand, "Don't say it, I can't control what happens to the British after the incident, but now, as long as we don't take the initiative to provoke the Chinese army, it's a perfect strategy. ”

Sheng Xuanhuai sighed, knowing Li Hongzhang's rigor, in fact, now the Chinese army and the British are in a stalemate, the Qing army is fighting from the flank of the Chinese army, the Chinese army is difficult to parry, and the British captured fleet has been rescued, Xuan Yuemeng can't leave if he wants to!

Xuan Yuemeng never thought about leaving, and he didn't take the Qing army in his eyes at all, because President Meng was too familiar with Li Hongzhang, and the reason why he dared to go straight to Tianjin was because President Meng was a military genius, and on the other hand, because President Meng knew Li Hongzhang.

Li Hongzhang has made many wrong decisions, and later generations have also criticized them.

For example, they are willing to sacrifice the whole of Xinjiang and give up Xinjiang defense because they avoid war too much and attach importance to coastal defense; In 1885, the Sino-Japanese Tianjin Conference was signed in 1885 after a complete victory over Japan, giving Japan the right to send troops into Korea. Command errors in the Sino-Japanese War with Japan led to the total annihilation of warships at Weihaiwei; After the victory of the Sino-French War, unequal treaties were signed.

Although these unfavorable treaties and practices are subject to various objective conditions, he still bears heavy responsibility for the misconduct of these incidents. In addition, in the early days of the suppression of the Taiping Rebellion, he killed too many people.

This also involves the overall evaluation of the Hunan army and the Huai army.

The Westernization Movement and his series of measures did not change the fact that China continued to decline, and his contribution was not significant.

When President Moe gets angry, anyone explodes into scum!

Today's President Meng is no longer the little President Meng Meng when he was just reborn and helped Li Hongzhang participate in the Tianjin lesson plan negotiations, President Meng is already a leader with some experience!

President Meng's ambition and courage, in the gradual cultivation, was continuously suppressed by the Huai Army, and the anger also made him embark on this desperate road of no return.

A company of more than 150 Mauser Type 1871 rifles, fired in a neat and orderly manner, completely suppressed the firepower of the British, and with the artillery fire, the British could only be beaten.

At this stage, President Moe's guns are also ahead of the British, and although the Mauser 1871 rifle still uses the Black Fire, it has very good performance, is simple and easy to operate, and has high stability.

There were no mortars, otherwise the imposing Chinese army would not have been able to break through the British camp in less than an hour.

When did the British suffer such a big loss and such a big insult in China?

Didi Didi!

Xuan Jianzhang's department took the lead in sounding the trumpet of the charge, and dozens of long ladders collected from the common people were erected on the wall of the British battalion, and the artillery fire did not stop at all, and in the midst of the fire, the British looked at the heroic Chinese soldiers as if they were looking at the gods of war, and knelt down and raised their guns above their heads.

Of the more than 3,000 British troops, more than 2,000 surrendered.

An hour later, the battlefield was cleaned up, and President Moe rushed to the British camp, where the supreme commander was Colonel Burrow, the nephew of Far East Commander Burleigh, who had fled to the consulate in Wittoma.

Standing next to President Meng is Princess Katrina Kafu and Qiu Yun, this time Qiu Yun came out of the spy training camp in advance, followed by President Moe, responsible for intelligence collection and divergence, in the middle of a group of men, Princess Catalina Kafu and Qiu Yun in military uniforms, particularly beautiful.

There are also Instructor Albert Kirchbach the Great and Instructor Albert Kirchbach Jr., one of these two is an army instructor and the other is a Navy instructor, and they have become an important chief of staff in President Moe's staff, and Instructor Albert Kirchbach is the chief of the general staff.

"Report to the President, our side suffered 386 casualties, the British suffered more than 1,100 casualties, and more than 2,200 prisoners. Together with more than 800 sailors, a total of about 3,100 people were captured. Lu Kangtian saluted and reported, and standing behind him were Xuan Jianzhang, Luo Guozhong and Wang Dashan.

President Meng returned a military salute, "Escort all the prisoners to the ship, keep them under close guard, and don't mistreat the prisoners of war." Blockade the British Concession and investigate and punish spies! ”

President Meng himself didn't expect that he would defeat the invincible British army all of a sudden, which was like child's play.

In fact, it is not that the Chinese army has strong combat effectiveness, and in terms of individual combat ability, the Chinese army cannot catch up with the elite of the Huai army, let alone compare with the elite of the British army, but most of these British troops are mercenaries, and many of them are not even British, Indian, and indigenous people of the South Seas, and their character flow is complicated.

There were less than five hundred real Britons.

There were quite a few British troops in Guangdong, Hainan, and Taiwan, and the British troops were relatively scattered, with the main forces in Guangzhou and Hong Kong.

At this time, the foreign powers actually did not invest much troops in the north, mainly because the Qing court was very dominant in the north, and the north was too barren.

For President Meng, the biggest threat is still the Huai Army, there was originally the Chu Army, and now the Chu Army is in the northwest, so the biggest threat is the Huai Army.

"Yes!" Lu Kangtian responded, this is what President Hemeng said a long time ago, investigating and punishing spies is to rob things and rob the British Concession!

This point was done by Lu Kangtian by assigning two regiments and a statistical bureau brought by Qiu Yun, and more than 20 agents of the Fifth Action Brigade to do it.

To grab the huge British Concession, this is a big project, Tianjin British Concession is an important gathering place for foreigners in the north, although the American Concession in the hands of President Meng developed rapidly, there are only a small number of German businessmen and some scattered businessmen from other countries, most of them are mainly Chinese businessmen, which is related to the identity of President Meng, but also because of the Chinese businessmen given a lot of convenience.

Due to the problem of manpower and familiarity, later they even let the Nanyang natives, a group of inferior sergeants hired by the British, participate together, otherwise they would not be able to move, and Comrade McMarof's Xingtai Xing Foreign Company alone would have to load a ship.

In the end, the Chinese army had to hire French ships and American and German ships to help load the ships, and Tianjin to Danzhou Port became the hottest transportation line.

More than 3,000 captives were transported to the port of Danzhou.

President Meng protected De Xuanlin of the Tianjin Customs and Excise Department, because when he was in Tianjin, he had a very good relationship with De Xuanlin, and also asked De Xuanlin to provide a list, which not only protected De Xuanlin, but also gave preferential treatment to the British, who had a better relationship with De Xuanlin, but it was not that President Meng did not distinguish between right and wrong, and only attached importance to the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, but President Meng really did not want to kill all the British, leaving a small part, and the future public opinion would also be beneficial to him, giving people the feeling that President Meng was forced to be helpless.

As for the Chinese, President Meng strictly ordered no nuisance.

Every step of President Meng is actually leaving the door to reconciliation for the Qing court, Cixi, and Li Hongzhang.

President Moe's Chinese army surrounded all the intersections of the British Concession before dawn, including the consulate, of course!

The Chinese army didn't say a word, and rushing into the consulate was to grab things, materials, documents, and people, all of which were counted as prisoners.

Wittoma and Burleigh were so frightened that they hid together, as well as the families of two people, and the situation was so fast that they were both overwhelmed.

My mind went blank.

Wittoma was frightened, and became prisoners together with General Burleigh, the commander of the British Far East, and the two of them originally wanted to run, but they hesitated, and by the time they made up their minds to run, it was too late, because the entire British Concession was blocked.

"We want to see Xuan Yuemeng! I am the Consul General of the British Consulate! You are presumptuous, I want to protest. Wittoma said loudly.

General Burleigh was quite honest, he didn't say a word, he honestly put his hands behind his back, and let the Chinese army be handcuffed.

A platoon commander smiled and said, "The president is what you said you would see?" Be honest! ”

In this way, a group of officials of the consulate, together with Mr. Wittoma and General Burleigh, were sent to their own barracks, and now this is the temporary headquarters and prison of the Chinese army, and the tortured are all British businessmen, these people are really rich, but many people's money is stored in foreign banks in other countries, and they will not hand it over if they are not beaten, and there is still a lot of wealth hidden in secret villas, some in the American concession, and some in the Chinese residential areas, which have to be tortured before they can be taken out.
