Liu Mingchuan's troops stationed in Beining also flocked out and launched a counterattack against the French army head-on.

When the 100,000 army rushed towards the exhausted French army with huge rocks and could not capture the eggs for a long time, the French army immediately collapsed and almost did not resist much, giving up a large area of ​​land north of the Red River.

The news of the victory reached the capital. Guan Xuqing took a long breath after reading it. Looking at the map of Vietnam, one-fifth of the Qing Dynasty's army is now concentrated in Vietnam. At this time, the troops in other parts of the country are empty. The remaining French enemies should be resolved as soon as possible to end this protracted war.

Otherwise, Xinjiang, North Korea, Mongolia are all lands that Japan, Russia and other countries have successively harassed and eroded.

However, the Red River has the newly formed Far East Fleet of the French Army, and there is only a very narrow land between the Red River and the North. The army will undoubtedly be massacred by the French fleet through the Red River and the south!

It seems that another decisive battle between the Qinghun Dynasty and the French fleet is inevitable. But how can the Qinghun Dynasty defeat the newly formed French Far East Fleet today?

Guan Xuqing's mind was buzzing, and his entire avatar was about to crack!

The last victory in the East China Sea was caused by too many accidents and the French underestimation of the enemy. The French who have suffered losses will no longer let the Qingshui Division take advantage of any more. And can the current strength of the Qingshui Division fight against the French army?

Wang Shang, who was standing next to him, watched Guan Xuqing grow up. He felt very painful when he saw the emperor so frowning. Didn’t he say that he was a big victory? A large amount of Vietnamese land was recovered in front of him, why was the emperor still so frowning?

Guan Xuqing staggered, probably because he had been standing in front of the map for a long time and looked up. He almost didn't stand firm. Wang Shang and others rushed over to support Guan Xuqing.

"Your Majesty, please rest for a while. I feel uncomfortable when I see you working day and night." Wang Shang said that tears were all gone.

Guan Xuqing pressed his temple with his thumb and index finger, and said with difficulty: "Is Zuo Zongtang back?"

"Go back to the emperor, Lord Zuo is in the morning. It will be in the Ministry of War. Didn't the emperor summon him tomorrow?" Wang Shang said.

"Go and call Zuo Zongtang for me. I have something to discuss with him." Guan Xuqing said.

"twitter."

After a while, Zuo Zongtang came to the Hall of Yangxin. The king and his ministers had not met for half a year since the war between China and France started!

"My dear, come to the emperor!" Zuo Zongtang knelt down.

Level 0 God http://www.77nt/19181/On the ground.

"Let's go flat." Guan Xuqing still had a calm face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zuo Zongtang stood in front of him.

Guan Xuqing raised his head and looked at Zuo Zongtang who was getting older, and couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Zong Tang, do you know why you are recruiting you back?"

Zuo Zongtang was shocked, knelt on the ground, and said tremblingly: "I, I... I have committed a death sentence. I have destroyed the Fujian Navy and Mawei Military Port. I have also lost Keelung!"

Guan Xuqing saw a veteran who had been fighting for the Qing Dynasty kneeling in front of him at this time, and was filled with emotion. To be honest, Zuo Zongtang gave everything to the Qing Dynasty in his life, regaining Xinjiang and creating the Fujian Navy, but at this time he blamed him for the defeat in the war, which seemed unfair.

"Zong Tang's words are heavy, victory and defeat are common in military affairs. I, the Qing Dynasty, did not have an excellent naval admiral, and the French army fought in the ponytail and could not blame you. It is also right to abandon Keelung for the sake of the overall situation in Taiwan. I have no intention of blaming you. China and France have started a new war, and I am not very familiar with Vietnam. The Qing Dynasty cannot be without you. I am transferred back to assist me in the fight for the next battle." Guan Xuqing helped Zuo Zongtang up.

At this time, Zuo Zongtang was full of tears. He thought that even if the emperor did not kill him, he would not use him again. After all, the losses he brought to the court were immeasurable. Unexpectedly, this little emperor not only did not blame him. He still regarded himself as an important minister to discuss the war in Vietnam. Can this old general not move this old general? As the saying goes, women should be tolerant to those who please themselves, and scholars die for those who are close friends. The emperor is so loyal to him, and he should be loyal to the emperor.

"Emperor... What kind of virtue is the slave? How can you be so kind to the emperor? Woo..."

Guan Xuqing saw an old man in his seventies. When he talked about his emotions, he actually cried loudly and was amused by this scene.

"Okay, OK, the general, the commander of the Qing army, was crying here, like a woman. If this is to be spread, where is the power of my Qing army?" Guan Xuqing pointed out the window and continued, "Look, when has this capital been so hot?"

Looking out of the window of Zuo Zongtangshun, the white sun made his eyes hurt. This summer is indeed much hotter than in previous years. It is already September, and it is still like July and August. It is so hot that it is life-threatening!

"The abnormal weather is like the changeable people's hearts, which is unpredictable. But blaming the world and others cannot solve the problem, it can only increase the worries." Guan Xuqing said with some meaning.

Zuo Zongtang asked carefully: "The emperor's meaning is..."

Guan Xuqing continued: "The legal person mobilized more than 20 warships from the Indian Ocean, including three large ironclad ships to the military port of Vietnam, and joined with the previous "Elegant" to form a new Far East fleet. My Vietnamese army could not cross the Red River, and was across the river from the French army opposite. My Qing Dynasty could not afford a protracted war. Russia in the north and Japan in the east took advantage of the war between our Qing Dynasty and France. The battle with the French army had already lost all the money in the national treasury. Tell me, how can we fight quickly?"

Zuo Zongtang thought for a while and said, "Japan, Russia's harm stems from the French War. The harm of Sino-French war begins with the weakness of the navy. I think that if you want to fight quickly, you have to go from the navy. If you defeat the French fleet, the Sino-French battle will end in a short time. Once the Sino-French battle is over, Japan and Russia will retreat one after another."

Guan Xuqing nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask: "So, do you think my Qingshui Division has the ability to defeat the French fleet? What should we do if all the warships go south, the capital, and the Jiangnan Shipbuilding Bureau encounter a sneak attack by the Japanese fleet? Let's not talk about these for now. Even if all the warships go south, what chance do you think we have of winning?"

Zuo Zongtang thought for a moment and replied: "Return to the emperor, I think the Japanese pirates dare not go to war with our Qing Dynasty. Moreover, the Tianjin Dagu Fort has introduced a full set of German forts, so there should be no problem with defense. In addition, the Jiangnan Shipbuilding Bureau can leave a few British-built shore defense gunboats. Our Qing Dynasty now has 6 ironclad ships, which is more than the French ironclad ships. After going south, the winner will be halfway."

Guan Xuqing looked at Zuo Zongtang and asked after a long time: "Are you willing to lead all the navy to fight? Open the road to the north bank of the Red River for the Vietnamese Army!"

Zuo Zongtang was stunned for a moment and immediately fell to the ground: "I am willing to issue a military order to not destroy the French fleet. I will thank the emperor for his death."

Guan Xuqing smiled with satisfaction. This veteran general still has some potential to explode when he stimulates!
