Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/          Xuandemen Street, in Prince Li’s Mansion.

Zai Lian smiled while eating melon seeds, "Look, there is no such coincidence in the world. Here is the negotiations between Li Hongzhang, and then Taiwan Keelung is recovered?"

Prince Qing Yili shook his head and said, "The little emperor has long been determined to fight the French to the end."

Zai Lian curled his lips and said, "Look at the newspaper that he praised him as if he was reborn from the Holy Ancestor. According to me, he has nothing to do with his ancestors. He has changed all the rules of his ancestors. Where can he not give food or silver to the bannermen? He drove us royal relatives out of the court."

Prince Li Shiduo sighed at this time and said, "We will not care about who the emperor wants to use, but he should not care about his ancestors' family business for the sake of fame. He should not discuss his peace and contention, but he would fight to the death with the French. When the French fight to the door of his house, he may lose his ancestors' country."

Yi Li said: "Prince Li, you are an elder of the royal family, you have to go and talk to the emperor."

Shi Duo shook his head and said, "Master? He met me? I'm a big deal!"

After hearing this, Yi Li sighed a long time, and Zai Lian also started to drink a suffocating wine.

In the Forbidden City, Guan Xuqing was still studying the map of Vietnam repeatedly. After the failed peace talks, the French reinforced 20,000 troops to the Vietnamese region. In addition, the French Indian Ocean fleet drew the flagship "Dur" and the ironclad ship "Victory", and the twenty-four ships including the "Elegant" advanced towards the South China Sea. The "Elegant" had long been maintained at the French military port in the South China Sea.

The "Dur" was the largest cruiser in the world at that time. The displacement of 5,700 tons was slightly lighter than the "elegant" of 6,000 tons. However, since it was not an ironclad ship, it was a cruiser. Its speed reached a terrifying 18 knots.

In other words, the fastest "Super Yong" in the Qing Dynasty, "Yang Wei" could not catch up with him. Moreover, the artillery equipped by the "Duer" is also very powerful, with 8 main guns and 13 smaller secondary guns. With the "Start Cannon", there are 38 guns, which are almost twice as many as ordinary cruisers.

Unfortunately, Germany's "Dingyuan", "Zhenyuan", "Jiyuan" and "Weiyuan" could not return to China early, so it could only rely on domestic fleets to deal with him.

The "Victory" and the "Triumph" are sister ships of the same level. Needless to say, "elegance" is a giant. Its displacement of 6,000 tons is simply a giant. After being hit by more than 100 shells, it still has a perseverance. However, due to the large number of shots, it cannot be repaired in the short term.

Now the comparison between the two countries' navies is weak again. Since there are only four iron-clad ships in the Nanyang Navy, "unbeaten", "long victory", "triumphantly" and "Juin". The rest are outside the four cruisers, such as "Yang Wei", "Shaoyong", "Nanji", and "Nanxiang". The other several hundred-ton mosquito ships are not worth mentioning at all. The only meeting is that the newly formed Far East fleet of France has not yet arrived in the South China Sea. If they can eat up all the French troops in Vietnam before they arrive, there will be no need to engage in cruel naval battles.

Just as Guan Xuqing was thinking about the strategy of defeating the enemy, Wang Shang ran in panic

Chaos Rebirth King of the Other World http://www.77nt/23488/ said: "Your Majesty, Lord Liu called and said that Japan sent troops to North Korea. He had already attacked the palace."

Guan Xuqing stood up suddenly, letting Liu San be stationed on Jeju Island. He asked him to guard against Japan, but why did they succeed? He was about to curse a few words, but before all this was over, the eunuch came to inform him: "Report to the emperor, Tsarist Russia has sent troops to invade our Xinjiang again. Now it has occupied the land in the southeast of Issek Lake. Nie Junmen asked for an order to fight back against Tsarist Russia."

After hearing this, Guan Xuqing's mind buzzed. The war in France in the south was not over, Japan in the east and Tsarist Russia in the northwest could not stand it anymore. He wanted to get a share of the pie, but now, the Qing Dynasty was tired enough to deal with a France. How could he spare it to deal with Japan and Tsarist Russia?

Guan Xuqing put down the telegram and turned to Wang Shang and said, "Let Zuo Zongtang return to Beijing immediately and do not delay."

"twitter."

At this time, Prince Gong asked for a meeting.

"I, please respectfully ask the emperor for peace." Prince Gong said.

"Uncle Six is ​​here, I'm just looking for you." Guan Xuqing said excitedly.

Prince Gong said with a strong face: "Emperor, the old minister heard that Xinjiang is in chaos again. He hurried over. I wonder how the emperor is going to deal with it?"

Guan Xuqing sighed and said slowly: "Now my Qing Dynasty is going to war with the French. Japan and Russia want to come to the fisherman to benefit. Uncle Six, I wonder how do you think you should deal with it?"

"I think that when dealing with the three, we should distinguish the order of the main and the order of the three, we can make plans calmly."

"What is the main thing? What is the second thing? How should we distinguish the order?"

"I think Japan's small country has developed very quickly since the Meiji Restoration, but it is not enough to compete with our Qing Dynasty. Russia has not recovered its vitality since the defeat of Krim and is unable to invade eastward, so it only sent small teams to harass our borders. Both countries took advantage of the Qing Dynasty and the French to fight, and wanted to take advantage of the situation. Therefore, the two countries are second, and France is the main one. We should concentrate on dealing with France. As long as the legal person leaves, the two countries will retreat."

Guan Xuqing looked at Prince Gong with a bright look and said, "Then how to repel the legal person?"

Prince Gong paused and said, "I see that the emperor has the lead in his work. Before Annan was in chaos, he sent troops southwards. Before the legal person attacked Taiwan, he had already been stationed. The change of North Korea was expected. In the Battle of the East China Sea, it was even more accurate to calculate that the legal person would sneak attack the Jiangnan Shipbuilding Bureau. However, he could only defend and be beaten on all sides, but could not hurt the enemy. It would be better to concentrate his forces to enter Vietnam, Xinjiang, and North Korea was just a problem of poverty. There was no need to pay much attention to it. North Korea stationed its fifth battalion, and whether it had these five battalions, the Japanese would attack North Korea. It was actually meaningless to let go or not."

After hearing what Prince Gong said, it was like seeing the sun clear. Yes, North Korea put five battalions into place only as a decoration, and the Japanese came to attack in large numbers. What's the use of the five battalions? It's better not to pay attention to the riots in the frontier and let him go to make trouble. When the matter in the south is resolved, a group of people will be dropped and they will go to Xinjiang. Without fighting, the Russians ran away.

It seems that this Sixth Uncle is really a rare talent in the Qing Dynasty. He is calm and stable in dealing with people and things. He must win him over and serve himself!

"Yes, it's a good idea." Guan Xuqing nodded with satisfaction.

Prince Gong continued, "I still think that since the legal person, Japan and Russia have joined forces to infringe on our Qing Dynasty, our Qing Dynasty may not be able to unite with other countries to control the barbarians."

Guan Xuqing also considered this, but for a long time, he paid too much attention to internal development. The external development was a little less. Didn’t Japan develop by relying on the British-Japanese alliance? Didn’t the industrial development of the People’s Republic of China also rely on the power of the Soviet Union? When the Qing Dynasty was so weak, it was indeed necessary to find a long-term and stable ally. But who should I find?

Although Britain is an old-fashioned power, it is not considered by the British-Japanese alliance with Japan; the United States is also strong enough, but now the isolationist forces in other countries are rampant and are working hard to develop their own industries. They have not yet realized their responsibilities for external and international things. Russia, France, one in the north and one in the south, are even more not considered by the Qing Dynasty; then the only one left is Germany, which is also the fastest-growing country since its reunification. Whether it is industry or technology, it is the world's number one army. And after dividing Poland with Russia, it has bordered Russia. The two countries are suspicious and guard against each other. They are even more incompatible with France, and they are a good candidate for ally.

"Uncle Six, do you think who are you looking for to be an ally?" Guan Xuqing asked tentatively.

Prince Gong thought for a while and said, "Diplomatic affairs emphasizes the strategy of getting along with each other in the near and near. We need to find a country that is close to our hostile countries in the Qing Dynasty, but is far away from our Qing Dynasty. In this way, it seems that Germany, which is the most suitable next to France and Russia, is far away from our Qing Dynasty."

Guan Xuqing stood up happily, I thought of going together.

He hurriedly said: "I am thousands of miles apart from Germany, and there are many complementary places between the two countries. If we can form an alliance, we can get a win-win situation."
