Red Alert 1895

Popular recommendation:,,,,,,,

With the support of the Empress Dowager Cixi, those boxer mobs became even more unscrupulous, and the entire capital became a mess. And this situation made the Zhili inspector very angry. Because the duty of the Zhili inspector is to be responsible for the security work of Zhili's prisons, if there is a problem with the security, I am afraid that they will face unlucky results in the future. So he was very depressed, and the inspector of Zhili, his already relatively big head, also became bigger.

"Gong Bao, has the situation in Zhili become like this?" said a counselor in his forties.

And the Zhili inspector with a bigger head said: "Yes! The current situation is completely out of control. As the Zhili inspector, I can't maintain the law and order of our Zhili. I really feel ashamed of the court!"

"Gongbao, the court is probably in danger. This time so many mobs have entered the capital, and the capital has become a place of mobs. This is simply too ridiculous. The Queen Mother actually believed that invulnerability, and let them practice What kind of secret magical skills. What kind of cultivation method is actually robbery, eating bully meals, or even violence against women. Is there such a cultivation method in the world? Moreover, if we really rely on this method to practice, then our Qing Dynasty will perish Yes. At that time, there will be no need for foreigners, and I am afraid that there will be chaos in the Qing Dynasty. If this continues, the people all over the world will be full of grievances, and it may be impossible to appease them. At that time, can we still rely on these mobs to obtain the peace of the court? ?"

(

The Zhili inspector also said: "It seems that I want to seek to leave Zhili. There are dangers everywhere in Zhili. If we stay here, it will be very dangerous. This capital has already become a The core of the storm, if we continue to stay here, I am afraid it will be dangerous. So. I think it is better for us to leave and not stay here."

"Gong Bao, it seems that this is the only way to go!" said the counselor.

Those who are familiar with history should know the name of this Zhili inspector. His name is Yuan Shikai, and he has experienced military training at small stations in history. Only in this way can it gradually rise in the political arena in the late Qing Dynasty. However, in this time and space, Yuan Shikai did not go so smoothly. Although Yuan Shikai in this time and space also participated in the training of the new army, the Manchu Qing court in this time and space trained a large number of new troops. Not only did they train with him, but all the provinces began to train the new army together. Therefore, Yuan Shikai’s training at the Tianjin station was not It was not able to stand out, so he is quite tragic. His promotion speed has been slower. According to the original history, he has already been the minister of the Ministry of Industry. But now he is just an inspector of Zhili, and has not been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

However, with his precise mind, he could see deeply that this capital city had become the core of the whirlpool storm, and if he was a little careless, he might also be implicated in it. Therefore, Yuan Shikai, who was as cunning as an old fox, also chose to leave and choose to work elsewhere, so that he could avoid being held accountable by the post of Zhili inspector. The Zhili inspector is the official position in charge of Zhili's prison security. If you continue to hold this official position, then I am afraid that you will become a scapegoat for the bureaucrats of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. Once something goes wrong with the Boxer mob, I am afraid that the Zhili inspector will definitely be held accountable.

Yuan Shikai soon came to his small station in the new army, and then saw his army.

"I've met Master Yuan!" Three people immediately said.

These three people, that is, the three officers of the new army, are the three generals who were later called the Three Heroes of Beiyang. But now they are not the three masters of the Beiyang, and their new army is not even the Beiyang Army. It's even just Wuwei Youjun.

"Everyone, I'm leaving Zhili soon, and I'm going to work in a different place. Are you willing to follow me?" Yuan Shikai asked.

"Follow Master Yuan to the death!" "Follow Master Yuan to the death!" "Follow Master Yuan to the death!"...

Those soldiers also started shouting one after another, obviously they were very loyal to Yuan Shikai. And Yuan Shikai was also happy for a while, because these troops were willing to follow him. These armies can be said to have been established by Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai devoted too much effort. What's more, with the poor finances of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, how could it be possible to afford the cost of raising soldiers? From the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom era, even from the beginning of Wang Conger's White Lotus Sect rebellion, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had already released the restrictions on the raising of private soldiers by local landlords and tyrants. In order to suppress the peasant uprising, they did not hesitate to drink poison to quench their thirst, and even gave official positions to those who had made great achievements in the suppression. The imperial court wholesales official hats like wholesale official hats, and they hope to use this kind of official hats to maintain their rule.

It is conceivable that the poor finances of the Qing Dynasty, coupled with the fact that the Green Camp and the Eight Banners have long been generally out of use, so they are all in a state of helplessness now. Although he knew that giving up military power was drinking poison to quench his thirst, but he had to drink it in order to relieve his illness. In this case, the political skills of a leader are indeed very important. At present, only the Empress Dowager Cixi in mainland China can control the situation in the world. It can be said that the Empress Dowager Cixi is the only person who can maintain the balance of governors and governors in the world. If the Empress Dowager Cixi is gone, there will probably be turmoil in the world. Empress Dowager Cixi played an irreplaceable role in maintaining stability in the late Qing Dynasty. And the facts also illustrate this point. In the past, once the Empress Dowager Cixi died, the attitudes of governors from all over the country became very ambiguous towards the Revolutionary Party, and they actually allowed the Revolutionary Party to rise. It can be said that the Empress Dowager Cixi was an important means to maintain the Qing Dynasty, but Wang Guorui did not intend to kill her. It is easy to kill him once, but it will be troublesome to clean up the mess later. At that time, the world will be in chaos, and it will be the common people who will suffer. Therefore, Cixi, a person who maintains the Manchu Qing Dynasty, still has the value of existence.

However, Cixi had nothing to do with all the warlords.

The Manchus could not afford the money. If the Manchus could afford the money, they would definitely train soldiers themselves instead of entrusting local forces to "self-raise" money for military training. It can be said that the subjugation of the Manchu dynasty was due to finances, and the subjugation of many dynasties originated from financial crises. At least that was the case in the Tang Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty.

"Okay, since everyone is willing to follow me, I will treat you well." Yuan Shikai said.

Yuan Shikai quickly took away the soldiers, and Xu Shichang next to him asked, "Gong Bao, where are you going next?"

"Shandong!" Yuan Shikai said.

"Shandong? That's the hometown of the Boxer mob!" Xu Shichang asked.

"That's right, I'm going to suppress this Boxer Regiment." Yuan Shikai replied.

"However, the Empress Dowager has clearly ordered officials everywhere not to restrict the Boxers!" Xu Shichang asked.

"It's actually very simple, as long as I don't suppress it in the capital and Zhili. Now all smart people know that this Boxer mob is crazy, and the foreigners will definitely not ignore it. The Queen Mother can control us. Can we still control foreigners? Foreigners must safeguard their own interests, otherwise they are not foreigners. We must find a way to get rid of them, otherwise when foreigners hold us accountable, they will also count us in. And once the Queen Mother If I was held accountable by foreigners, the responsibility would inevitably be shifted to us courtiers. We courtiers are all scapegoats. If I were still the Zhili procurator at that time, I am afraid that I would not be able to shirk the responsibility at all. I had to make a reconciliation Only in this way can the responsibility be cleared.”

"The more important thing is that the uprising of the Boxers this time is really weird. If there is no support behind it, then I don't believe it at all."

Xu Shichang immediately asked: "You mean those corrupt scholars?"

"Yes, besides those rotten scholars, who else could there be?"

Those decadent feudal forces actually hated the rise of foreigners the most, so they naturally supported the Boxers. However, Yuan Shikai did not know that the Taiwan represented by Wang Guorui also represented a very disgraceful role here~www.readwn.com~ and Wang Guorui just hoped that foreign devils would find an opportunity to start a war against the mainland, so that Taiwan could also borrow The plane entered the mainland in the name of defending the country. If there is no suitable reason, then you must obey the order of the Manchu Qing court to deploy troops. Otherwise, once the Manchu Qing court declares Taiwan a rebel army, Taiwan will lose a lot of popular support in the mainland.

So to enter the mainland, we must seize the opportunity. Once we directly attack the mainland, the Manchu and Qing will unite against Taiwan, and Taiwan cannot quickly defeat the Manchu and Qing. It is a joke for a province to quickly defeat a country. Once the war drags on for a long time, Western countries will also come to intervene. Therefore, "for the time being", Wang Guorui is not able to set the Manchu Qing government in the mainland as an enemy, and can still cooperate properly with the Manchu Qing government when necessary.

However, if you want to cooperate, you either have common interests or common enemies. It is impossible for Taiwan and the mainland to have common interests, but they can have common enemies. Just create an opportunity for the Manchus to go to war with other countries, and then Taiwan will support them, so that they will not be enemies, but "friends". What Taiwan needs to avoid is going to war against the big powers and the Manchus at the same time, so as to avoid falling into the enemy. Therefore, it is necessary to take advantage of the opportunity of the mainland to go to war against other countries in order to be able to enter the mainland as a reason to defend the country, so as to avoid the attack with the Manchus and foreigners. And by defending the country, the people on the mainland can see the strength of Taiwan, and protect the country with them so that Wang Guorui can win the hearts of the people. (to be continued...)
