I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

Xingzhen is like falling into an ice cellar.

The Ming people said they were coming to try foreigners, but Xingzhen looked around and felt that the Ming people were here to take back his Xing Bao!

I, Yehenara Cixi, and Xing Jiuliulang, a talented girl and beautiful woman, are a natural match. How can I get you monsters to oppose it!

Just when Cixi was going to take Xing Baoyuan to escape to the desert, she suddenly galloped into the Forbidden City on a fast horse.

Hurry up and hang the golden seal of Tongliao Khan of the Qing Dynasty, but walk on the sword in the palace, enter the court without going, praise without being famous, and walk around in the Forbidden City!

So the horse galloped to the front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. A Mongolian warrior dismounted from his horse and entered the hall with a knife in his hand. Just as he saw a group of courtiers panicked because of the Ming people's landing in Tianjin, they were like mourning dogs.

The Mongolian warrior entered the hall and shouted loudly: "I am the small school in front of the tent of Lord Suotna of Tongliao. I am here to play by the order of Lord Suotna. My cavalry from Tongliao has passed Shanhaiguan Pass, and I will arrive in Tianjin in a few days. War is peace, my Lord Suo is willing to bear it all!"

Chapter 506

"As expected of me, Batulu, No. [-] in the Qing Dynasty! Lord Suo is loyal, dominates Phi Island, and has a great power in Liaodong. He is really the pillar of the country!"

Like Sotna, who was also from the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, the Bachelor of Wenyuange University, and the master of the Tongzhi Emperor, Uchigri Woren was the first to react.

He slapped his back, knelt down, grabbed the ground with his head, and shouted: "The old minister congratulates the emperor, congratulates the empress dowager, and congratulates the Qing Dynasty. No worries!"

As the leader of the Conservative faction of the Queen's Party, as soon as Uzigri Woren spoke, Li Hongzao, the Minister of Military Aircraft, and all the censors and Qingliu of Hanyuan followed suit.

When a country is about to perish, there must be party disputes.

Today, the relationship between the Queen's Party and Prince Gong's Party is not much worse than that of Tianqi, Chongzhen, Chuanzu and other dynasties.

Cixi's party, or Queen's Party, or Qingliu Party, has a large number of people, occupying [-]% of the power in the court.

However, Prince Gong's party, or the Westernization Party, although the number of people is small, is not light.

As the patriarch of the clan's mansion, Yi Jujin occupies the great righteousness, receives the support of many banner masters and dignitaries, and also makes friends with foreigners and Zeng Guofan, and is also very strong in foreign aid.

Seeing the Qingliu party celebrating each other like eating dumplings in the New Year, Yi Rujin coughed lightly, and one person came out more and more.

As soon as this person came out, Cixi's head hurt behind the curtain.

Because this person is the number one scholar in the third year of Tongzhi, and the only bannerman number one scholar in the Manchu Qing Dynasty for two hundred years-Alut Chongqi.

It stands to reason that Cixi was the number one scholar handpicked by Cixi on behalf of Tongzhi in the Palace Examination of the Palace of Harmony, and Cixi was kind to him for knowing him.

However, he had a close relationship with Prince Gong.

Especially after the Tongzhi election last year, Chongqi's daughter, under the impetus of the Clan Mansion, Ci'an and other forces, forcibly squeezed out Cixi, the favorite candidate of her biological mother, to become queen.

How does Empress Empress Cixi of Arut look at her and she doesn't like it? Although Tongzhi himself likes it very much, who is Cixi?

Although she treated Tongzhi much better than Guangxu, her desire to control was far from that of an ordinary mother.

Therefore, for the empress, Cixi often abused and tortured her on weekdays, which made Chongqi firmly stand in Prince Gong's party.

Chongqi, as the father of the country, Cheng Engong, and the minister of the Ministry of Rites, is also extremely important.

He said loudly: "Ming people are brave and brave. As a Mongolian, Prince Suotna is good at water warfare. It is unknown how land warfare is. Besides, Suotna's invasion of troops is just a one-sided statement, maybe it is just empty talk!"

Chongqi took the lead, and Prince Gong's party also raised doubts. This Mingren is a villain who can't even deal with Zeng Shaobao and foreigners. A Ming challenge?

The whole court was noisy.

At this time, Yi Jinjin finally came forward and said: "It's not that I don't believe in Lord Suo, but we must be cautious when using troops. The foreigners are defeated, and the tyranny of the Ming people is already extraordinary. We must be very careful, so I suggest that we wait for Shanhaiguan. report! After all... after Shanhaiguan Pass, the only way to go to Tianjin is not!"

With Yi Rujin's words, the court immediately fell silent.

Indeed, without the order of the court, the Liaodong frontier army entered the customs without permission...

Why is this scene so familiar?

The next scene shouldn't be that Sortna asked to bring troops into Beijing, right?

The name of the last person who did this is really... called Yuan Chonghuan!

Yuandudu was eaten alive by the people of Beijing one by one!

Prince Suotna is a Mongolian, and he doesn't take a bath all year round. I'm afraid it won't taste good if he eats it raw, right?

You have to use Liuquanju rice wine to remove the fishy smell, and then dip it in Longmen vinegar...

This is authentic!

bah bah bah!

Putting back their wild thoughts, everyone realized at this time that the [-] new troops and the Japanese Eight Banners in Suote's hands seemed to have the ability to threaten the capital.

If he really sent troops, it seems that the only one who can fight him is Zeng Guofan's Hunan army stationed in Langfang.

But no matter how you look at it, Prince Suo should be more reliable than Zeng Guofan, right?

In the mood of apprehension, everyone finally waited for the documents from Shanhaiguan General Military Mansion flying horse.

The letter stated that a group of Han soldiers had indeed crossed the border from Liaodong to Tianjin.

The leader is indeed the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, Prince Suotna of Tongliao.

However, this army carried a lot of chariots and horses, and the ruts were deep, far exceeding the constant for the transportation of food and grass soldiers, but they did not bring cannons, which was very strange.

Upon receiving such news, everyone in the court breathed a sigh of relief.

At least not heading towards Beijing.

But here comes the question again, what is the Liaodong Army doing with so many chariots and horses?

What is luck?

Because the matter is confidential, only a group of important ministers including Yi Rujin are staying in the Hall of Mental Cultivation to accompany the saint at this time.

In fact, Yi Rujin has a serious understanding of the military and the new army, at least in the name of purchasing equipment, he has made a lot of money.

Thanks to Zhu Fugui's first ocean-going fleet, he went to the British to place an order.

But Cixi definitely can't ask Yi Rujin.

She looked at Zai Ling, Minister of the Ministry of War, who was relatively neutral, belonged to the clan, and didn't get too close to Gui Ziliu, and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Just as Wo Ren, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, doesn't understand steelmaking, the Japanese Internet minister doesn't know how to surf the Internet, and the anti-epidemic general of a certain island is a dentist, Zai Ling, the minister of the Ministry of War, doesn't understand soldiers.

Playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, walking birds and fighting crickets, babbling and singing ditties are quite good.

Zai Ling bit the bullet and went out, slapped his head and said: "Your Majesty, little Buddha, I understand! I heard that the man is building a large-scale construction project in Tianjin City, and he must have built a strong city. The Lord Suo is far-sighted, and he must lead an attack. Explosives, flying claws, building car parts and other things used in the city!"

"I see!"

Cixi, Woren and others nodded, thinking that it made sense. Didn't it say in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that Cao Cao built a catapult to deal with Yuan Shao?

The Ming people are fierce, ordinary artillery can no longer deal with them, and they must strike hard. The Prince of Tongliao must have a clever move in front of the battle, and he will definitely use secret weapons to blow up those Ming people to death!

"but……"

Although Zai Ling didn't understand soldiers, he knew how to be an official.

Seeing that Yi Jujin's expression was unkind, he changed the subject again, "Prince Suo is certainly loyal, indescribable, and brave enough to win the three armies, but the Ming people are cunning and cruel. I feel that we should also ask Zeng Shaobao to send troops at the same time, and the two armies from the north and the south will take Tianjin together, so that nothing will go wrong!"

After saying the water-tight words, Zai Ling felt that his level with Si Ni was too high, so the devil must sell himself, okay?

He raised his eyes to take a look, but saw Yi Jinjin stared at him viciously with the expression of a dead mother.

Zai Ling was puzzled.

But Cixi immediately said: "This plan is very good, let the Military Aircraft Department draw up a regulation, ask the prince, Zeng Shaobao two armies, whoever enters Tianjin first will be rewarded..."

Cixi originally wanted to talk about rewarding the noble.

But on second thought, Sotna was already the prince, and Zeng Guofan was already the first earl, the highest peak of Hanchen.

I had no choice but to change my words: "Reward silver... ten thousand taels!"

……

Zai Ling thought that asking Zeng Guofan to send troops was a great help to Yi Jujin, but in fact, everyone from Prince Gong's mansion to the Hunan Army heard about it like a mourning concubine.

The so-called joy at hearing the war, and the so-called fighting for military merits are based on the premise of pinching the persimmons.

Is Daming a soft persimmon?

Zai Ling, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who messes around all day long, doesn't know, but he, Guizi Liu, and Zeng Guofan know it too well!

In particular, the Hunan Army had previously fought a battle between the Somali tribal militia and the American soldiers in Tianjin with the Ming people, and it had long been frightened.

However, Zeng Guofan's last younger brother, Zeng Guoquan, had just been shot dead by Daming. Whether it was public or private, it was impossible for Zeng Guofan to refuse the emperor's order to suppress Zhu Ming.

The good news is that this time it's not that my family is fighting alone, there are still friendly troops!

Zeng Guofan convened a discussion with his subordinates, and believed that what the Ming people benefited from was firearms, and the most powerful firearms were not cannons or armored chariots, but machine guns.

For light infantry with a very low degree of organization like the Hunan Army, machine guns are the worst nightmare.

Therefore, Zeng Guofan finally set the policy of steady and steady progress, step by step, and flood irrigation.

To put it simply, it is to wait for Sautna's Liaodong Army to attract Mingren's attention, it is best to lure Mingren out of the cave, and then the Hunan Army will use its numerical advantage to wipe out the enemy in the wild.

The plan had already been drawn up, and it was rare for Guizi Liu to pluck his feathers, and he sent a set of starting money, and the Hunan Army finally regained some morale.

On May 5, the same day when the first Prussian "Mole" was blown into the sky by a French anti-tank mine, the entire army became vegetarian, covered with white cloth (Ming Dynasty), and carried white flags (Ming Dynasty) 10 The Hunan Army marched southward slowly.

As for why Langfang had to go south to Tianjin, it was naturally because Marshal Zeng decided to outflank him and caught him off guard. It was definitely not because Langfang was too close to Tianjin, and Shanhaiguan was too far from Tianjin.

Moreover, Zeng Guofan's entire army only walked 20 miles a day, and did not walk more than one mile.

Anyway, it is to ensure that I walk behind the Liaodong Army and be more calm than anyone else.

Zeng Guofan sat on the donkey cart and patted his long beard: "Being more patient than the old man, there are few people in this world who dare to claim victory. Back then, the old man was able to wipe out the invincible Cantonese bandits by relying on building a stronghold and fighting a dull battle! "

boom!

Before he finished speaking, a shell suddenly fell into the front line of the Hunan Army, setting off a cloud of smoke and dust.

……

Zeng Guofan was in pain, obviously he had walked slowly enough and lost his circle far enough, why did Ming people always stare at him relentlessly?

From Langfang to Baoding, and from Baoding to Cangzhou, the Hunan army was constantly attacked, and the will to fight almost collapsed.

This is already Daming's mercy.

For the Chinese, Zhu Fugui is indeed a bit soft-hearted.

Even if it is an enemy, it is mainly based on intimidation, supplemented by attack.

Otherwise, Zeng Guofan's 1.0 beggar soldiers with shotguns and cannons, Ming Hua [-] are considered magic weapons, and Daming can find two mixed brigades at will, and a charge will be enough.

But still the same sentence, the second half of the nineteenth century was the last outlet for world map coloring.

Whether the Chinese nation, the yellow race can laugh at the end in this coloring game and occupy the most territory, the population is the top priority.

Zhu Fugui didn't intend to fight internally, so he was more likely to release water.

But even so, Zeng Jun suffered heavy casualties, was devastated, and his morale collapsed. When he arrived in Qing County, he refused to leave no matter what.

As the saying goes, it's not Daming's fault that Brain Ax falls in love with a kitten, and she explodes when she touches it lightly.

Chapter 507

Sitting on a donkey cart.

Don't ask why it's a donkey cart, horses are more expensive than houses in Beizhili nowadays.

The plain onyx on Zeng Guofan's body was torn, and many places were scorched black. He looked to the north and remained silent for a long time.

After a long time, he finally showed a smile, and murmured joyously: "At least, this old man is not the worst..."

"Report! Prince Gong's secret letter, the imperial court has issued an order to warn us not to fight, and the angel is already on the way!" A messenger said.

"what?"

Zeng Guofan supported the shaft of the donkey cart, and said in disbelief, "We waited for more than ten battles before we approached Tianjin City. Why did the court issue an order? Didn't Prince Gong complain for us? And that Sotna, their Liaodong Army Could it be that he was not punished?"

The messenger glanced at Zeng Guofan's flushed yellow complexion with blood surging, and carefully took out a Tang report: "That... Prince Suotna has entered Tianjin and confronted the Ming Dynasty right away. Undeserved courage..."

"This...how is this possible...the Ming army is obviously so strong...how could he, Sauter,...how dare..."

puff-

Marshal Zeng vomited three liters of blood again, and fell headlong from the donkey cart.

"Big guy!"
