Chapter 66: Seizing Power (Part 1)

"Sir! There is already Jinzhou in front of me. The provoy in front of my camp has seen the banner of the army in southern Liaoning on the west bank of the Daling River. We are here!"

Several fast horses rushed back from the front as if they were flying. The horses were sweating all over the head, and their sleeves were rolled up high. They returned in succession. The large group of people and horses led by Xu Yifan were resting on the ground. The soldiers sat together quietly and neatly, eating marching rations silently. Everyone looked tired and walked around for two days and two nights, sleeplessly. The exhausted horses were thrown away all the way behind. In order to move quickly, the battalion had seven or eight hundred horses, but now they still

Only one person and one horse will be left. All this is to arrive in Jinzhou as soon as possible to deal with the army in southern Liaoning. Now Xu Yifan still has a tiger skin of an imperial envoy to rely on. No one knows how long this tiger skin can be opened. He has become domineering all the way. Xu Yifan knows how favorable he is in front of Cixi. Once Beijing changes, his plan to control the army in southern Liaoning will be vain, and the entire battle situation will be really uncontrollable. After all, with only one army of more than 10,000 people, he still has no power to turn the world back!

So he gritted his teeth and led the team again, running wildly, and lamented how his life was so hard. Others rarely acted like this when traveling through time, as if the power was so powerful that it was too great to use any tricks. The forces trained by the soldiers were simply suppressed and crushed people to death - as if it was an easy thing to leverage history.

To make such a huge and heavy wheel of history change slightly from its inherent trajectory, every move requires him, a time traveler, to gamble on everything!

It was not until he left Wulu Mountain and saw Daling River that Xu Yifan ordered the exhausted team to stop and rest, tidy up the military appearance a little, and send a post to find out what was going on in front of him now, so that he would not bump into him inexplicably.

When the whistleblower was paying back, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, struggling to deal with a canned beef sauce. He choked a few bites and asked Pu Yang for water with a flushed face. Pu Yang was also eating, and the food was ugly compared to Xu Yifan. He didn't see Xu Wu, Mu Haidong, who is famous all over the world, and his face turned red.

At this time, Li Yunzong's calm voice sounded not far away: "Whose camp flag is the west bank of the Daling River?"

Several cavalrymen had already dismounted one after another, and one of them shouted: "It's the triangular blue flag, I don't know which camp it is!"

Nie Shicheng's voice sounded again beside Li Yunzong: "It's Yi Jun, the camp of Song Qing and Song Junmen! No... He is the Minister of Military Affairs of the Imperial Commission, and his status is second only to Lord Xu. Why is the leader of the Yi Jun in Beining, the west bank of the Daling River? What about Yi Jun's camp? What about Feng Sheng's camp? How can this Minister of Military Affairs of the Imperial Commission be at the forefront?"

The two generals who followed Xu Yifan were Li Yunzong and Nie Shicheng. There was a reason to choose them instead of Chu Wanli, who was most convenient for Xu Yifan. Li Yunzong was majestic and able to control the people, and leading the troops was the one who was the first to choose. Going to Liaonan was to suppress these messy camps, and then pull them to hit the Japanese, without any strange plans. Li Yunzong was much more suitable than Chu Wanli. As for Nie Shicheng, of course, he had to use his familiarity with the strengths of the army in southern Liaoning to make some connections.

It would be bad to take these two people. Chu Wanli is a shameless person and always likes to talk nonsense and jokes with Xu Yifan. With these two generals, they will never come to Xu Yifan for no reason. They are just with the officers and soldiers. The journey these two days has been boring.

Listening to Li Yunzong Nie Shicheng and Chuanqi Q&A, Pu Yang Chen De and the Goshha who were eating all threw down the cans in their hands and stood up, looking in that direction. He left Xu Yifan, pinching his throat, shook his head and tail, and didn't even look at him.

The officers and soldiers sitting neatly all stopped to eat. They worked hard to seize the power of the army in southern Liaoning. How did the imperial court deal with the imperial guards? From officials to soldiers, everyone was somewhat aware of it. Now hundreds of people have penetrated into the army in southern Liaoning with tens of thousands. The soldiers are fine, but which officer doesn't have any thoughts? Now that they finally arrived at the ground, everyone felt their heartbeats have accelerated a little.

How can this power be taken away?

Everyone thought of this problem at the same time, and their eyes turned back in unison. Hundreds of people looked at Xu Yifan. Pu Yang and the others immediately saw something was wrong, and they picked up the kettle like flying. Xu Yifan took it and got angry, and then kicked Pu Yang: "Damn it, I almost choked to death!"

Pu Yang did not dare to answer, and served him in shame. He saw Li Yunzong and Nie Shicheng and others strode over and were about to salute meticulously. Xu Yifan reached out to stop him: "What? Is it Song Qing outside Jinzhou City, but the others in Jinzhou City?"

Li Yunzong's eyes were deep and nodded slowly: "It seems like this." Nie Shicheng also frowned: "This is evil..." He shook his head gently: "The Qing Dynasty is also clear about whether it is willing to obey orders and fight to the death. It depends on factions, feelings, and relationships... We didn't listen to Ye Zhichao at the beginning. The war was for the central hall and the imperial court. When I was about to leave, I took two thousand people and left... But usually, the face of the upper and lower systems was tightly maintained, and no one would lose face......

The army in southern Liaoning was not here, and the old army system of Song Qing was the most respected. Why was it that he was in the back, and the other people's camp was in front? The defeated soldiers who retreated to Liaoyang had already said that in the battle of Tianzhuangtai, Feng Sheng's camp first collapsed. Now he settled in Jinzhou. The Japanese vanguard is more than a hundred miles away from here. As long as there is no threat of starting a war, no matter whether the Song army can really control Feng Sheng and the others, according to common sense, Feng Sheng is going to apologize for the crime and wait for the disposal. There is no reason to let the Song army be in front... Is there any change?"

Nie Shicheng was quite brave in the war, but he was not a complete martial artist. He was familiar with the affairs of the officialdom. This question was reasonable and every sentence was at the root. There was a most important meaning hidden in the words. The imperial envoy, the Minister of Military Affairs of Liaonan, has arrived outside Jinzhou City, waiting for Xu Yifan, the imperial envoy to be the general secretary of Military Affairs of Liaonan, what would be the scene of Xu Yifan, the imperial envoy to be the general secretary of Military Affairs of Liaonan?

When Li Yunzong heard this, his eyebrows frowned even more, but Xu Yifan smiled and waved his hand: "What's the point? It's just that the people in Jinzhou are really wanted to use to control the army in southern Liaoning. They guard Jinzhou, that is, they guard the latest channels for obtaining the imperial edict. Song Qing was simply excluded and only held outside. What we want to do is to take Song Qing to clean up the one in the city!"

Nie Shicheng was shocked: "Fengsheng, Yiketang? Who is it?"

Xu Yifan smiled and waved his hand: "I care who they are? Anyway, who is dealing with whom... Yun Zong, gather the team, let's go to the military camp of the white-haired veteran Song Qing first, and show off some energy!"

He reached out and took off the horse whip, and walked towards the horse stake with big strides. Many officers were watching the movement here. Seeing Xu Yifan stepping, they were about to order the waiting soldiers to follow suit. Li Yunzong grabbed Xu Yifan and whispered: "Sir! What if there is any change... What if the court orders to be waiting to deal with him, we will deliver it to our door by ourselves?"

Xu Yifan looked at Li Yunzong coldly, but Li Yunzong looked at Xu Yifan without blinking. Nie Shicheng listened next to him, and suddenly he was sweating in a cold sweat. This was the first time Xu Yifan's confidant general, and he expressed his distrust of the current court in front of everyone! No matter what they were doing in secret before, it seems that they have already shown it unscrupulously, even if it is the foreign general who only serves in front of him. Since Li Yunzong, the Imperial Guards have only obeyed Xu Yifan, only worried about his safety, and only put his interests first!

Under the sunshine of southern Liaoning, Li Yunzong's handsome face was as cold as iron, and every sentence made Nie Shicheng sweat and relish came out of his mouth without any emotion.

"………………………………………………………… The safety of the battle depends on you! The court will only feel that the defeat is determined. The lord is running like this and trying to turn the tide will only be regarded as a thorn in his eyes. Even a loyal veteran of the court, such as Song Qing, was so excluded just because he was willing to fight. What will happen to them to the adults? Maybe a telegram comes over and there is an unexpected surprise! Sir, you have fought in the north and south and have already defended the last hope for the Chinese people. This battle is the final defeat, and it is clear who is responsible. If you have any unexpected problems, there will be no hope for the Chinese people to revive and avenge their shame!"

Nie Shicheng was already sweating heavily, and Li Yunzong's meaning was already understood. He subconsciously turned around and looked around, but he saw Xu Yifan's captain Goshha, Pu Yang. The yellow belt looked dissatisfied, as if he had heard nothing. Li Yunzong said these words without any intention of avoiding the yellow belt.

Either Pu Yangsha, he didn't hear what Chu Wanli said. Or he had truly integrated into this group and even forgot his origin.

Nie Shicheng didn't know that in the late Qing Dynasty, the imperial court and Aisin Gioro's royal family did not give Pu Yang a little dignity and warmth, but he just let him be a fool for two days a day. However, the vibrant and dynamic group of the Imperial Guards gave Pu Yang a sense of dignity and pride and belonging to do big things and do serious things that he had never had before. History can prove that there are countless people in a struggle group who deviated from his background and class. Now there are many people who are easily impulsive.

Xu Yifan didn't care much about Nie Shicheng's thoughts. Sometimes, people can't help themselves in any position, and everything is in the general trend. Nie Shicheng is now on his mountain, and can only sing his Xu Yifan's song... At this time, he was just very satisfied with Li Yunzong's statement - two years, two years, I jumped up and down, and my loyal brother was finally cultivated!

He gently shook Li Yunzong's hand and sighed: "I can't come in vain!"

"Sir?" Li Yunzong looked motionless and asked quietly. Everyone thought he was talking about the hard work of the two days - what's so great about walking for two days in vain?

Looking at everyone's eyes, Xu Yifan also knew their questions, and he had no way to explain it. The nightmare of Sino-Japanese War, from the beginning of his journey, was standing in front of him like a nightmare always pressing on his head. This is a war that determines the national luck in the next century!

This is the general trend of history. Once luck is lost, if you want to recover it, you will be bloody every step, and it will be a hundred years since you turn back.

He has reached this point now. The more miserable the Qing court was defeated, the easier it would be for him to seize the path... But just watching this neighbor rise like this, and in the years to come, he will have to make such great sacrifices to completely defeat its ambitions?

It is better to retain more vitality now so that this enemy, which has risen in real history and in the next few decades, will not have such an opportunity to rise because of the nourishment of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895.

If he hadn't reached this point and had no ability, he would probably complain. But now he had this opportunity! He knew very well what kind of tragic situation Japan had fought for the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 in real history. How lucky this victory was to Japan. As long as he persisted and fought for it, even if the whole world was invincible!

If you want to be aware of it, you can do it. Usually he is a fool, he pretends to be a fool, he is playing tricks, and he sees the beauty drooling, holding up all kinds of thoughts and secretly digs out the corners of the government... But some things may be really engraved in the blood of the descendants of Yan and Huang.

He has come to this point, so he can't travel in vain...

Several people looked at each other silently, each with their own thoughts. In the end, Xu Yifan just smiled and said to Li Yunzong: "Can you follow me?"

Li Yunzong nodded silently, without answering, but turned around and waved his hand hard to the leader of the battalion Wang Chao. The officers had already been waiting for the order here. Li Yunzong ordered, and all kinds of commands suddenly rang out in a short voice. The horses led over, and the officers and soldiers turned over the horses, arranged neatly. The flag-holding soldiers first held the Canglong flag of the Imperial Guards, and sat straight on the back of the horse. The fatigue of two days and nights seemed to have never existed in this team!

The Goshhas had already led the horse over. Xu Yifan took the lead and turned over the horse. Li Yunzong followed closely. Xu Yifan grabbed the reins and suddenly turned around and saw Nie Shicheng who was still standing there. He smiled and said, "Kongting, why? Don't you want to leave?"

Nie Shicheng was shocked all over, and immediately grabbed the reins of a horse and flew onto the horse. Since he decided to follow Xu Yifan, the rebellious Haidong General, he had no choice! This war made the entire Qing Dynasty change and integrate, and the more he was in it, the more he felt it clearly. No one knows what will happen after the change, whether Xu Yifan will stand at the top of the changing trend of the times?

Nie Shicheng just looked at Xu Yifan's back, and Xu Yifan rode his horse and Li Yunzong in front of the queue. The Canglong flag was flying above his head. He didn't look back. He just smiled and waved his hand gently. The officers' command suddenly sounded: "The whole army - move forward!"

Under Canglong's banner, hundreds of knights were moving forward in unison. In the solemnity of the entire army, Pu only saw him tilting his head towards the sky and screaming strangely. The boy was thrusting his blood: "Damn it!"

Beijing City.

At this time, the southern part of Weihai and Liaoning were still under the Japanese army's front, and the front line was defeated repeatedly. The country's fortune was floating and the day was in danger. In name, the center of the Qing Dynasty, where the emperor stayed at the foot of the emperor, was an indescribable smell.

In the past or two days, Beijing City was like a beehive that encountered water, and it looked messy everywhere.

After the imperial party banquet, only the desolation of the empty hall was left. Weng Tonghe was locked, Wen Tingshi was locked, Zhirui, the Minister of Rites, Zhang Zhongxin, and other backbone members of the imperial party also seized the post. The charges were all disordered and alienated the Tian family. A few days ago, the imperial party was full of military operations, the Prime Minister's affairs offices and the prosperity of the six ministries turned into a painting cake in a blink of an eye.

There was also the rise of the Later Party and the frenzy of being arrogant and energetic. The royal party, princes and ministers who had claimed to be sick a few days ago, had been riding sedans, carriages and horses in the past two days, and they also made an appointment to go to the Summer Palace to hand over the signs to pay tribute to the Old Buddha, and by the way to see the Old Man Weng who was imprisoned in the Summer Palace Guards' Courtyard. For a moment, Weng Tonghe was quite popular, and everyone pointed at him like a rare beast, and walked around and came again and again. If Old Man Weng could sell tickets by himself, he would probably make a fortune.

Some officials who were unlucky in the hands of the Imperial Party could have gone up to give the old man a few fragile strokes, and they all cursed: "Uncle Weng, why are you crazy?"

Weng Tonghe was just as peaceful as he was just writing articles of self-punishment with white notes. Insiders revealed that since Old Man Weng surrendered, most of the imperial party officials took the responsibility for the unfavorable war on themselves, and they didn't know what kind of expert guidance he could have.

When the later party resurrected, in addition to paying tribute to Mr. Lam, he just pointed and said: "This world depends on us old characters!"

There are also things that cannot be understood and cannot be explained clearly. The Emperor Party fell, but the Lord Laifu did not hide the curtain. Guangxu still saw military aircraft every day. The third brother of Shiduo, who was rehearsing the military aircraft, respectfully went to Yulan Hall to report twice a day. Li Lianying, who was beside Cixi, also spoke: "Lord Laifu still needs honor and support. Don't bother with Lord Laifu for everything, the emperor takes the general!"

In addition to the bizarre performances of these characters on the stage, the people are more concerned about the things around them. They are used to seeing those flag soldiers or infantry yamen who are not distinguished by soldiers and civilians. Now inside and outside Beijing, there are black cloth Baotou. The training camps from Shandong and Tianjin, carrying all kinds of foreign guns and zaka in the passages of the capital. Once there are too many soldiers, they will be in a panic all day long. No one knows what the world has become. Beijing is like a hornet nest. The emperor has not fallen but the people around him have fallen. Everyone comes to the stage and I step down, and I don’t know what they are doing. There are still wars outside! Who is still worried about this war now? It is rumored that they want to make peace with the Japanese. Such a Qing Dynasty is said to be hundreds of times bigger than the Japanese, and they are defeated so confused?

In the past two days, a kind of discussion has risen in the capital, and it has spread more and more widely.

A treacherous minister came out of the court! Weng Tong and the old man kept the emperor tightly, which was the last bit of hope for the Qing Dynasty. The biggest treacherous minister was Li Hongzhang! He threw away the defense area of ​​Tianjin and Shandong and returned to the capital to force the palace, and wanted to make peace with the little Japanese. It is said that the little Japanese promised Li Hongzhang five million taels of peace. The emperor had issued a bloody edict and wanted to transfer the general Xu from Haidong to Beijing to serve the king!

The wider the rumors, the worse the people in the capital saw the Huai Army training in the city. The more courageous the bannermen dared to spit at them seven or eight steps. It really had a stance of dying with you.

A treacherous minister came out of the court, ruining the Qing Dynasty and losing the war. Fortunately, the emperor was still there, and fortunately there was Marshal Xu outside!

The chaotic and dull capital was approaching the end of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, and everyone was looking for a way out. However, the situation was so chaotic that no one knew where the exit was.

A light sound was heard, and a green official sedan fell outside the Longzong Gate. The official deacon in front of the sedan were layer by layer, and the most eye-catching were "First-class Su Yi Bo" and "Qin Gong Minister of Beiyang". The guards outside the Longzong Gate knew that Li Hongzhang's sedan arrived. Except for the locations of several stations, the guards had no choice but to salute thousands of times, so the others hurriedly hid in the corner, and they heard someone cursing.

"This will be a kneeling statue in the future!"

"I sold it all over the place, and even the little Dongyang nose was sold. I didn't open my eyes, why didn't I accept him!"

"Who has a good ending for the ward?"

The Goshhas standing next to the sedan chair were all gray-faced. They pressed their waists and kept looking back at the sedan chair, for fear that Li Hongzhang would hear these comments. This time, Li Hongzhang led his troops from Tianjin to Beijing. It was not that no one in Beiyang advised him, but most of them asked Mr. Li to hold his troops to watch the provocation in Tianjin. Even if both factions in Beijing were beaten up, who could do anything to Li Hongzhang with heavy troops?

Li Hongzhang just smiled bitterly and shook his head and refused one by one: "There must be someone else's matter. Just paste the court for the last time... If you want to work hard in the future, you will have no chance...... If my teacher is here, he will lead troops to the capital..."

Amidst the low scolding, Li Hongzhang lowered his head and slowly came out of the sedan chair. He looked haggard, but there was a hint of indifference in his eyes. It was the tranquility after seeing through everything. He held a stack of documents in his hand, glanced around, and the guards retreated further. Li Hongzhang just smiled faintly and walked towards the Military Affairs Office of the Longzong Sect.

Shi Duo had been waiting for him at the door of the Military Office. He watched Li Hongzhang slowly walk over and asked a loud question after about ten steps: "Shaoquan, has the telegram from Japan been answering? Did the telegram from Liaonan? Lao Fu, just keep an eye on these two things. Your great master should worry more, my third brother burns incense and kowtow to you!"

The military aircraft leader who jumped back to the center was in a very good complexion. He seemed to have gained weight after several days of recuperation. He was rosy and stood at the door and his voice was big. Cixi's instructions, Shiduo returned to the military aircraft to arrest the general, and at the same time he was responsible for staring at Guangxu, asking him not to move around, and also wanted to weave the charges of the imperial party, clean up the remnants of the imperial party, and be responsible for the new personnel arrangements of the imperial court. Li Hongzhang was staring at the affairs offices of the Prime Minister in various countries. With his diplomatic qualifications, he shook the white flag to Japan through the US ambassador to China, and quickly ended the war. The external telegram contacts were all in the affairs offices of the Prime Minister in various countries, and it was also important to get back to Fengsheng's telegram in southern Liaoning. No big news was caused anywhere else. Only Xu Yifan from southern Liaoning, no one knew what happened to this 25th!

If Cixi jumped to the front desk by herself, Xu Yifan had a lot of reasons to act without obeying orders. It was Li Hongzhang's opinion that he would use Guangxu's name to suppress Xu Yifan to obey orders. If he did not listen to the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, or if he did not listen to Emperor Guangxu, he would be in chaos. In order to quickly and steadily, Cixi could only listen to this opinion with her nose, but still did not hide the curtain and held Guangxu's puppet. The telegram in the name of Guangxu was also sent to southern Liaoning to take over as the imperial envoy to control the ministers of the army in southern Liaoning. Xu Yifan had no name or excuse to command the Qing army in southern Liaoning. Stabilize the situation and as long as the summoning information conveyed by the ministers of the United States, Britain and other countries was responded to, peace would be negotiated!

At first, the vigorous Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 was awaiting such an ending. Li Hongzhang, who was in charge of the peace affairs, would undoubtedly bear the world's infamy!

Seeing that Li Hongzhang was still walking slowly, Shiduo simply jogged down the steps and reached out to support him: "Shaoquan, you are my dear uncle! Will you be able to make it clear?" Now, everyone in the rear party dares to offend him, but they dare not offend Li Hongzhang. He was really loyal. He discussed with Cixi how to end the war. Cixi shed a few tears for him, just saying that he would have hurt you. Li Hongzhang was just smiling at the time, and no one knew whether he cared or not.

Looking at Shiduo's anxious appearance, Li Hongzhang looked at him squintly: "Do you look at the telegram from Weihai?"

"Don't look!"

"The Japanese have already set out to attack Weihai. The Southern Gang Fort and Yangjiatan all declared their fall at noon yesterday. The Japanese artillery shells entered the military port. The Northern Gang Fort was completely defeated last night, with only nineteen soldiers left. Ding Yuting telegraphed that if it weren't for the newly recruited Third Battalion troops increasing their defenses in the Northern Gang Fort, the Japanese army would probably have taken this place today. With the Northern Gang Fort, the cannons there could sweep the entire Weihai Fortress, and the defenders there would have been the entire army... The situation is so critical, should you take a look?"

"No, don't look at it! The talks are over, and there is no need to die! Shaoquan, have the telegrams on both sides replied?"

Li Hongzhang smiled faintly, and casually loosened the stack of telegrams he was holding, and the paper was flying everywhere. The Sulas on duty hurriedly shouted and picked them up.

"If you don't look at me, don't look at me. Anyway, I can't help anymore. Lord Shi, do you know where are the soldiers of the third battalion guarding the North Gang Fort?"

Seeing that Li Hongzhang was still talking nonsense, Shiduo was so anxious that he stamped his feet: "Uncle Li, Grandpa Li! I asked three times in the garden in an hour, and people were going crazy. Did you call me back?"

Li Hongzhang looked at Shiduo for a long time before slowly taking out a newspaper from his sleeve: "The Japanese Ito Cabinet has sent a call with Tian Bei, the US Minister, today, to agree to a peace agreement. The condition is that the on-site truce will be on the ground, all the remaining ships of the Beiyang Navy in Weihai will surrender to the sea. In North Korea, we will withdraw from Pyongyang, and they will take it away from Xu Yifan's post......... We can meet the following conditions and further discuss the end of the war in a comprehensive manner."

Shi Duo's face turned red, and he took the newspaper copy from Li Hongzhang with his hands trembling, and was cautiously afraid of being damaged: "Oh God, it's finally over... I'll repay the Lord of Lafayette, and I'll repay the Lord of Lafayette quickly!" He was so excited that he didn't know what to do, so the foreman of the military aircraft was wandering around in the same place. If the back party had any political purpose, it was to kill the imperial party and end the war. Now that both goals were about to be completed, how could Shi Duo not be ecstatic?

Li Hongzhang started to work, but looked at Shiduo weakly, with only an indescribable smile on his lips, which was particularly bleak: "The navy surrendered, Xu Yifan seized his post, Pyongyang gave up......How can I tell the world?"

"If I could win in the first place, I wouldn't have to talk about this now!" Shi Duo was ecstatic and shouted without saying a word. After shouting, he realized that something was wrong. It was the Li Zhongtang in front of him who could not win the war. He immediately calmed down and changed his face to heartbroken: "Shaoquan... bear it. Who made us weak? This time, let's sleep on firewood and taste gall, cheer up for more than ten years, and there is a chance to avenge the shame... The court will definitely build a new naval army for Shaoquan!"

Li Hongzhang's smile became more and more sarcastic. At the end, he just said lightly: "It's irrelevant... Lord Shi, please repay the Empress Dowager quickly. I'm still waiting to go to Japan to discuss peace with Hirofumi Ito... I'm sending a notice to the world, telling us that we are defeated and we surrender!"

Shi Duo shook his head and nodded again. He really didn't know what to say to Li Hongzhang. His face turned red and he said twice. He was about to sing a voice to tell someone to go to the Summer Palace. Li Hongzhang was willing to take the blame, which had something to do with him. When he was about to speak, he suddenly thought of it and turned around and asked, "Shaoquan, has Fengsheng's telegram been returned? What's the news about Xu Yifan? Did Fengsheng say anything?"

Li Hongzhang shook his head slowly: "Fengsheng hasn't called back yet, I don't know."

Shi Duo stamped his feet again: "This Guo Bole family is confused! When did the telegram go? It's not in the name of the emperor?"

Li Hongzhang had slowly turned around: "I sent it out the night before yesterday. The emperor's name... Lao Shi, please give back to the empress dowager quickly. I'll keep an eye on you in Liaonan. What's important now is to tell the world that we are defeated and we surrender!"
Chapter completed!
