Chapter 160: The Cabinet Falls

Chapter 160 Fall within the Interior

"Lafayette, something is wrong, the British have been defeated by Western Sichuan!" When the news of the defeat of the British army in western Sichuan came out, Prince Gong Yixin immediately rushed to meet Cixi, and he didn't even care about other official duties. No matter how busy other official business is, it is far less important than this one! This is related to whether the Qing Dynasty can be inherited!

"What? The British were defeated? How could Kawanishi be so powerful? Didn't you say that Britain is the number one power in the world, and Kawanishi lost this time? Empress Dowager Cixi said in a panic. I didn't even notice that the teacup in my hand fell to the ground and shattered.

"Lafayette, how did the slave know that the Western Sichuan Army was so strong! However, although Britain is the world's number one power, they are strong in the navy, not the army. Prince Gong Yixin explained.

Is it still possible for the Chinese people to start a full-scale war with the Western Sichuan Army? The Empress Dowager Cixi asked with some expectation.

"Lafayette, Inu, it should be impossible." Prince Gong Yixin lowered his head and said. The last time he opened a letter and swore to Cixi that this time Sichuan provoked the British, it was an absolute dead end, and in just a few days, the powerful British ** team was completely annihilated by the Sichuan West Army. Could it be that the British were very poor in combat effectiveness? Prince Gong doesn't think so. Back then, a few thousand British troops beat the millions of troops of the Qing Dynasty to the ground. The only explanation is that the army in western Sichuan is extremely strong.

"Why is this happening? Didn't the British suffer? Are they the most powerful country in the world? Is it just willing to suffer losses? No matter how the UK can get it back, right! Empress Dowager Cixi said angrily.

"Lafayette, you don't know anything! The mind of this foreigner is different from ours. They are all bullies and fears the hard. The stronger you are, the more fierce you hit him, and the more he doesn't dare to make mistakes. If you speak kindly to him, he still thinks you are a bully and oppresses you even more. Slave, this time Sichuan West is hurting the British. They are ready to negotiate peace with western Sichuan! Prince Gong Yixin said with a gloomy face.

"So what should we do? Could it be that the sky is going to kill my Qing Dynasty? The Empress Dowager Cixi said with some despair.

"Galeries Lafayette. O Inu! Let's find a way to ease the relationship with Sichuanxi! Try to buy me a few more years of time. Now, the war of foreign affairs is very smooth, and when we train an invincible strong army in the Qing Dynasty, we don't have to be afraid of western Sichuan anymore! Yi Xin said. Although, he himself knows that if foreign affairs want to develop, it is not something that can be done in one or two years, and it takes time to train strong soldiers who can match the western Sichuan. However, he had no choice but to say that he had to obey the fate of heaven.

That's right, we should ease relations with Kawanishi. When we are strong, we don't have to be afraid of them. Sixth, you can talk to the people in western Sichuan, Yuying's girl can marry as much as she can. In addition, seal that girl as Heshuo Gege. Puxu, the king of Dingjun, was also crowned Prince Ding! Empress Dowager Cixi said. Now, when it came time to curry favor with Kawanishi, even the British had been defeated, and if Kawanishi turned around and wanted to make a move against the Manchus, then how could they resist.

Obey! "Prince Gong had no choice but to take the order. He only hoped that the western Sichuan side would not be angry because of the Manchu Qing's deliberate procrastination some time ago, and if they refused to marry the Qing Dynasty because of this, but insisted on destroying the Qing Dynasty, it would be bad.

In the afternoon of the same day, the inner court issued a decree from the Empress Dowager Cixi, and crowned the king of Dingjun as the prince of Ding. Yu Ying was also crowned as Heshuo Gege. This caused a sensation in the Manchu clan. However, when they knew that Kawanishi actually defeated the British ** team, they immediately knew the reason. Everyone immediately brought generous gifts and rushed to the Dingjun Palace, which should be the Dingjun Prince's Mansion. Hello to Prince Pu Xu, and at the same time, he also pulled the relationship. You know, Prince Ding's Mansion can be regarded as climbing a high branch this time, and even the British can defeat the West Sichuan, so is the Manchu Qing still the opponent of West Sichuan? Everyone wants to leave a way back for themselves! Although I don't know if this is useful or not, no matter what, after Prince Ding's Mansion and West Sichuan got married, Pu Xu became the old man of the young marshal of West Sichuan, and no matter how West Sichuan is, he has to give a few faces! This made Prince Ding's Mansion, which was originally full of birds, lively again. The sedan chairs parked outside the gate of the house have been discharged for more than a mile!

Prince Ding, Aijueluo? Pu Xu, who was so smiling that he couldn't even close his mouth, he was originally a little worried about the direct battle between Kawanishi and Britain, but he didn't expect that in the past few days, Kawanishi won. He felt more and more that it was quite correct to marry Kawanishi.

Prince Shiduo was quite depressed. Originally, the idea of marrying West Sichuan was proposed by him, but later, it became the junior of Prince Puxu of Ding. It made him feel as if his hard work had been taken away by someone. However, even so, he has to go to the prince's mansion with a smile on his face, who told people to climb the high branches and climb to the sky in one step?

Prince Gong Yixin contacted the officials of the Western Sichuan Division in Beijing to discuss the marriage of Wang Yuze and Yuying. However, the officials stationed in western Sichuan were not enthusiastic about this, but shirked in every possible way. This made Prince Gong Yixin furious, but there was no way to vent it. Who told them to deliberately procrastinate before? This time it can be regarded as lifting a stone to hit one's own feet.

In the Far East, there was another country that was shocked and even terrified by the victory in western Sichuan. That is, if the island country wants to rise, it must expand its living space, and the good goal is undoubtedly the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Originally, Kawanishi and Britain went to war, and they thought that Kawanishi was about to be defeated by the British, and they would have no worries. However, unexpectedly, Kawanishi defeated the British lightly, which shattered all their dreams. However, people are also a very resilient nation, after relying on external forces to defeat western Sichuan, they began to work hard, began to invest a lot of money to reorganize the army, in order to defeat the Manchu Qing in one fell swoop, and even the later western Sichuan. to realize the rise of RIBEN.

Europe and the United States, France, Germany, Russia, and the United States were all shocked by the strength of Kawanishi's appearance. However, these countries are mainly focused on whether the UK has really started to decline. After all, Britain still occupies the world's largest colonies. If Britain declines, then they may have a chance to cut a piece of meat from Britain. For example, the great powers of Germany and the United States. However, after analysis, they found that although Britain had declined, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and Britain was still the hegemon of the sea. Britain's powerful naval power is still no country that can challenge. Therefore, if other countries want to compete with Britain for colonies, they will probably need to build a navy that can rival Britain. This made Germany also increase the construction of the navy, and in terms of military spending, the increase was inclined to the navy.

The biggest shock was undoubtedly caused by the United Kingdom. When the famous British newspaper "The Times" reported the full text of the British Army's defeat, the whole of Britain was shaken, and the people were excited, demanding that the majority of taxpayers be given an explanation, so that the Prime Minister Marquis Salisbury was exhausted. When he received the telegram from the British Legation, the Prime Minister, the Marquess of Salisbury, was first in disbelief, but when he sent a message to the Viceroy of India, Henry Brown. Patty? When Fitzmaurice confirmed the news, he was stunned.

"Damn Henry? Wellesley, that stupid pig, was defeated by the Western Sichuan Army so easily, I must send him to court-martial! The Marquess of Salisbury roared. It's too late, though.

There are also two factions on how to deal with this matter. Field Marshal George? Charles? The Earl of Bingham demanded a formal declaration of war on western Sichuan, and sent a large number of troops to the Far East to teach the following yellow-skinned monkeys a good lesson.

And Admiralty Anthony? The other faction, led by Sir Hoskins, demanded peace talks with western Sichuan, an end to the dispute, and the limited national strength to be put where it was needed, rather than wasting it in the Far East.

The two factions could not convince each other, and a quarrel arose with Yan zhòng. The Prime Minister, the Marquess of Salisbury, also had a headache and didn't know what to do.

And it was at this time that the political enemies of the Marquis of Salisbury came into play. The Marquess of Salisbury was an important figure in the Conservative Party, and his political opponents were people.

In the party leader William? Gladstone's speech refuting the policies of the Marquess of Salisbury led to a serious defeat for Britain and made the world laugh. Both the nobles of the House of Lords and the members of the House of Commons were also very dissatisfied with the continuous weakening of British national power over the years, and this defeat in the Far East immediately aroused their anger. In the votes of both houses and houses, a motion of no confidence in the Marquess of Salisbury was passed.

At the same time, in various parts of the United Kingdom, internal demonstrations against the passing organizations also broke out. This left the Conservatives and the Marquess of Salisbury in a state of disarray. After arriving, even Queen Victoria of England expressed her importance on this matter.

After holding out for a few days, the Marquess of Salisbury had to submit his resignation to Queen Victoria and Parliament. The Marquess of Salisbury announced his general resignation, and his second term ended there. As for whether there will be a third term, it is difficult to say.

Party leader William? Gladstone became Prime Minister of the United Kingdom three days later and formed a term with the core as the core.
