Chapter 10113 Good Times

Sell ​​newspapers! Sell newspapers! The Northwest Army Mutiny, Turpan, the King of Zhennan, was assassinated!"

"Selling newspapers, the Empress Dowager inspected the northwest and was under house arrest in Gongning City!"

"Big news, Northwest rebellion! Anxi Governor Feng Renxuan called the king and became independent!"

Early in the morning, the news selling sounds attracted passers-by in a hurry. The king of Zhennan was assassinated, the empress dowager was placed under house arrest, and the northwest rebelled. Everyone was frightened by these words and rushed to buy newspapers to see them.

Although the court and Yuan Qi jointly blocked the news of the northwest, some well-informed people have learned about some of the mutiny in the northwest through foreign wired telegrams. Most of the incidents in the northwest of various provinces are caused by this.

However, the amount of information that telegrams can convey is limited, and countries have very limited understanding of the situation of the Northwest Mutiny, which has led to different opinions on the Northwest Mutiny in each province, and various versions are emerging one after another. However, in fact, few people know about the specific situation of the Northwest Change.

Now the newspaper has publicly reported on various situations before and after the Northwest Mutiny. Only then did everyone know that the severity of the Northwest Mutiny far exceeded the previous versions. For a moment, the government and the country were in an uproar and hot discussions were in full swing.

Officials and gentry were worried about the safety of the Empress Dowager and hotly discussed what consequences the rebellion in the northwest would cause. Industrialists and merchants were worried about investment and business in the northwest, while the people were worried about civil strife. The civil strife caused by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was not far away. Those who were a little older still remembered it freshly. After all, every war was the hardest for the people.

As for those with relatives and friends in the northwest, they are even more worried. In the chaotic world, people's lives are as cheap as grass. Whether it is a rebellion or a rebellion, they don't know how many lives they will be filled in. There is no reason not to worry.

Some people are worried, but some are happy. For financial speculators, the Northwest Rebellion is no different from a rare speculative opportunity. Gold prices rise and the stock market also rises. Because the Northwest sector collectively suspended the market, the stock index not only did not fall, but rose sharply. Stocks related to military industry climbed like a chicken blood.

The stock investors who have experienced countless war baptisms are already sparrows on Dongting Lake. They were scared and had already overcome the panic of war. Instead, they regard every war as a rare speculative opportunity.

Although this time was not a foreign war but a civil strife, it was different from the past. No one believed that the rebellion in the northwest would have serious and disastrous consequences for the Qing Dynasty. Today's Qing Dynasty was no longer the scene of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rebellion thirty years ago. The mere rebellion in the northwest could be quelled soon.

"Di Lingling" phone rang again as soon as he put it down. Zhao Liewen picked up the microphone with a depressed and helpless look on his face. It was less than eight o'clock, and he asked about Yi Zhizu's assassination one after another. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink tea. He kept answering the phone for the whole morning and only spoke dry mouth. The first time in his life, this phone call was really annoying.

Yi Zhizu was leisurely reading newspapers and drinking tea outside. The phone ringing rang six or seven times before Zhao Liewen picked up the phone. He couldn't help but smile, got up and walked to the door, and ordered Chen Mengzhu who was waiting outside the door: "Let the switchboard room directly transfer the phone to the secretary's department, and then he said I'm out."

He was not intentionally punishing Zhao Liewen, but in fact, the calls he transferred were basically all from the military and political officials of the capital and various provinces. It was a bit inappropriate for the secretary to borrow the phone. However, at this point, it was considered a late greeting, so he was not polite.

Seeing that the phone number stopped ringing, Zhao Liewen rubbed his cheeks, which were sour, and walked out, poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it all, and then said: "If you really plan to start a war in the northwest, you must connect to the cable phone in the northwest as soon as possible."

"It is reminded that you must give priority to connecting wired telephones to the northwest." Yi Zhizu nodded. In the past two years, domestic communications have developed very rapidly. Wired telegrams have basically covered the town level. Since its launch, wired telephones have become very popular and have been popularized quite rapidly. After all, it is not difficult to set up telephone lines along railway lines.

As the two were talking, Yi Zhengxing walked in quickly with a telegram, "Gong Ning Zuo Jigao called and beg for permission to escort the Empress Dowager and the Emperor back to Beijing."

After receiving the telegram, Yi Zhizu said, "He probably didn't know that he had publicly reported the Northwest Mutiny."

Zhao Liewen said quietly: "He doesn't want to blame this infamous."

After hesitating, Yi Zhengxing said: "This matter itself is a bit unfair to Zuo Feng and the others..."

"Unfair?" Yi Zhizu laughed and said, "The Northwest Army has a mutiny, my special train was bombed, the Empress Dowager was trapped, and the situation in the Northwest is corrupt. As the governor, they are unable to escape the blame. Giving them the opportunity to make meritorious deeds is already a matter of opening the door. What's the point?"

Yi Zhengxing opened his mouth but still said nothing. Although Zuo Zongtang was the governor of Xinjiang, he actually did not have much binding force on the Northwest Army. It was a bit unfair to blame the Northwest Army. However, such a shocking thing happened under the rule, he was indeed to blame as the governor.

Zhao Liewen smiled and said, "Does Xingzhi want to go to the northwest?"

Seeing that he had seen through his mind, Yi Zhengxing did not deny it and said straight: "If the war starts in the northwest, it is a rare opportunity to experience. Yuan Qi has always attached great importance to the northwest. If he has the opportunity to go to the northwest for a trial, he naturally doesn't want to miss it."

"Even if the war begins in the northwest, we have to wait until next year." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "Since you are willing, do more homework, don't be limited to military affairs, and learn as much as possible in all aspects..."

This was agreed, and Yi Zhengxing was delighted. It seemed that he had guessed well before. He really wanted him to go to the northwest to experience it, so he nodded and agreed immediately.

Yi Zhizu continued: "The situation in the northwest is much more complicated than you think. All ethnic groups in the northwest, especially the Anxi tribes, have always been fences-bearers. They rely on whoever is strong, lack a sense of belonging and cohesion. It is not easy to completely consolidate Anxi, nor can they do it in one generation or two generations.

However, in the hands of our generation, we must lay a solid foundation for future generations. The reason why we use the northwest as bait this time is certainly due to the needs of a big picture, but we also have the intention to take the opportunity to thoroughly rectify the northwest. For those fence-between, don’t let down hidden dangers for future generations.”

Although these words were peaceful, they were murderous. Yi Zhizu secretly sighed in his heart that this is really a good era, at least there is no need to be restrained and many concerns. After all, no one talks about human rights or universal values ​​to you now, and there are no international conventions of one kind or another.

Of course, the premise is that you must be strong enough! Your fist is big enough and hard enough, otherwise it will be an absolute dark age.
