Therefore, Weng Tongyi said this, Xu Tong pursed his lips, and said with a warm smile: "Everyone is now colleagues, not to mention seniority, you might as well say it directly." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Xia Guan just thinks so, now it is comparable to the curtain period of the Empress Dowager Song Zhezong." Weng Tongyi said a sentence like this, and he didn't speak, but as everyone knows, this short sentence of a dozen words caused a monstrous wave in the hearts of several people.

Li Hongzao, who was perusing Mu Yang'a's excerpt, slapped his thigh, "Okay, this Mu Yang'a, now he is going to be embattled!" ”

"The benefits of railways cannot be described in the fields of transportation, relief, commerce, mining, donations, and travelers, and especially in the use of troops. …… However, as soon as the railway is opened, the east, west, north and south breathe together, depending on the enemy's trend, the camera responds, although it is thousands of miles away, it can be reached in a few days; Millions of people, all in one call. And the combination of soldiers is strong, and the division is weak. In terms of China's eighteen provinces, there are not many soldiers, and the salary is not insufficient, but here and there, each has one heart, and when there are soldiers, they are too busy to take care of themselves, and they are unable to pay and transfer troops. If the railway is completed, the momentum will be connected, the blood will be connected, the troops will be cut and paid, and they will become a strong force, defend the border and the sea, transfer guns and artillery, and the troops stationed in the army can be a guerrilla journey, and the eighteen provinces will be combined into one, and one soldier can be used for more than a dozen soldiers. In the future, the power of military power and salary will be in the imperial court, and the internal weight will be light on the outside, and it will not be controlled by the Xinjiang ministers. Liu Rong closed the newspaper, "This is Chen Fuen's excerpt the day before yesterday." ”

Zeng Guofan in Jiangning Mansion half-squinted, thinking hard about the game of Go that he had been playing for a long time, "This Chen Fuen dares to say anything now." ”

"This is also his duty as a great Sima," Liu Rong said with a smile, "Moreover, now that the army of the Twelve Towns is in hand, he, the Great Sima, is the most authoritative one in the past dynasties, what dare you not say?" As long as the Queen Mother gives an order, it is estimated that he will dare to start a war with England today. ”

Zeng Guofan looked at the chess game carefully, shook his head, dropped the sunspot in his hand, and wiped the chessboard, "His words are naturally reasonable, if the army is assembled smoothly, it will naturally save a lot of time, and the consumption of grain and grass is naturally very small, but the last sentence, I originally wanted to argue on the fold, but after reading that sentence, the old man didn't dare, 'In the future, the military power and salary power will be in the imperial court, and the internal weight will be light on the outside, and it will not be controlled by the Xinjiang ministers." If this seat jumps out, won't it be in the hands of someone else? ”

"A few days ago, Qingliu in Beijing was in a uproar, but there were not a few bigwigs who broke the bullet to impeach Mu Yang'a, I'm afraid that they are just waiting for the governors to take care of them, so that they can reap the benefits of the fisherman, but Chen Fuen said it naked like this, but the governor is not easy to talk about."

"Yes, this is Yangmou, and it is what the Queen Mother likes to do." Zeng Guofan drank a cup of tea, closed his eyes and recuperated, "This railway matter, naturally, it will be done, presumably the Military Aircraft Department will not object, but thinking that every province will do it together, it must not be possible, then I, Jiangsu, will naturally not be the first to eat crabs, so don't come out, let them do the things in Beijing, don't climb me." ”

"What Dong Weng said is that the land of Jinling, developed in all directions, relying on the Yangtze River water system, convenient transportation, this railway will not be used for a while and a half, if it is the first to be built, it will naturally be in Shanghai, not in our Jinling."

"It's this reason, just do your own thing, the China Merchants Bureau and the Manufacturing Bureau will do a good job, and my foreign affairs will also be done." Zeng Guofan said.

"On the side of the Steamship Bureau, Xu Shou and Hua Yufang have already built a kerosene engine ship by themselves, and they will be launched in a few days."

"Good!" Zeng Guofan was quite happy, and nodded again and again, "I'll go and see for myself when the time comes." ”

"Soldiers are always strong, and soldiers are weak. China's border defense and coastal defense are more than 10,000 miles each. If there is equipment everywhere, there is no such effort, and there is no such way. If there is a railway, it will be possible in ten days, although Yunnan, Guizhou, and Ganlong are far away. The defense of the eighteen provinces can be a guerrilla division. In the future, the army will be cut and paid, and it will become a strong force, and it can be gathered. Momentum contact, one soldier can be worth ten soldiers. …… At a time when all countries have railways today, and China is unique, such as abandoning boats and cars in the Middle Ages, it will be followed by others at every turn! ”

Under the gem mountain, facing a house in the lonely mountain, an old man's voice came from inside, and he only heard that he was quite interested in reading it, and then laughed, "Hahaha, Li Hongzhang's fold is good." ”

Talking is a bearded man wearing a tuanshou robe and a horse coat sitting on the Taishi chair, swaying leisurely, the spring gem mountain is full of flowers, the house where the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian temporarily lives is the most beautiful of them, the winding path is quiet, the trees are shady, and a few rhododendrons are dotted with the courtyard is extraordinarily vibrant, on the edge of the Taihu Lake stone, Zuo Zongtang laughed, "This Li Hefei, in the end, is the most proud person in front of the Queen Mother, Chen Fuen came together like this, and then beat the snake with the stick, this fold shows his own attitude, and has his own opinions, he is really a talent, So it makes sense that I'm so angry about Shanghai's prosperity, tsk.
