Chapter 449
From the bottom of his heart, Li Cha is a person with a strong tendency towards Great Chinaism, and he is absolutely unwilling to see Xinjiang break away from the control of the Manchu Qing and become a turbulent place free from the central government.

Whether the current chaos in Xinjiang is still following the original track of history still requires careful observation to make a conclusion, and there is no rush to act for the time being.

It is also stated in the report;

What was the Qing government doing when Yagubo invaded Xinjiang?

The Qing government is now busy suppressing the Taiping Rebellion. The Qing court adopted Zeng Guofan's suggestion of "abandoning the outside of the customs for the time being and focusing on clearing the inside of the customs."

The remnants of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom have fled to Jiangxi and other places, and the Qing court is mobilizing all kinds of troops to encircle and suppress them. It is imperative to make them "eliminate the poisonous and bandit troubles and prevent them from resurging". This is the top priority today.

Only after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Nian Army were basically wiped out, the Qing court would focus on Xinjiang.

At this time period, there is no time to take care of it. It happened that Yagubo took advantage of the loophole and fully occupied all parts of Xinjiang.

A debate broke out within the Qing court about the dispute between "abandoning defense" and "main battle". The two sides debated fiercely and refused to give in to each other.

Some ministers, headed by Zhili Governor Li Hongzhang, suggested that the Qing government should abandon Xinjiang. The reason was that Xinjiang was far away from the Central Plains, with a vast land and sparsely populated areas. The annual tax revenue handed over to the central government was limited, and the Qing government also spent a large amount of military expenditure on Xinjiang every year. Expenses are very uneconomical.

in the original history

This secret mission is handed over to the Security Bureau, and these gangsters might make a fortune.

Different from the Manchu Qing government's willingness to degenerate, the famous and powerful vassals of Fusang Kingdom realized their shame and then acted bravely. They sent young people of insight to travel to Europe, America and Tang countries to learn advanced western industrial technology.

From this we can see the sophistication and precision of British foreign policy. In the original history, it was precisely because of the strong support of Britain that Fusang fought a Japanese-Russian war with all its troops, and finally repelled the "yellow war" in Tsarist Russia's conception. "Russian plan", the forces stopped within the three northeastern provinces.

Li Cha stood up frowning, walked back and forth in the imperial study room with his hands behind his back, and made up his mind.

Which is lighter and heavier, at a glance.

To deal with the evil wolf of Tsarist Russia, another evil wolf must be cultivated.

It seems that properly cooperating with the British East Asia foreign policy and loosening the dog chain around the neck of Fusang has become a new topic that has to be faced.

On the other hand, the Tang Empire has the largest number of garrisons, reaching more than 4300 people. Each soldier is equipped with an 1856 King-style bolt-action rifle and a bayonet. Many soldiers are also equipped with revolvers themselves, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.

What kind of experience does it feel to watch Xinjiang's land fall and worry?
Putting down the "Summary of World Situations" in his hand, Li Cha frowned and let out a deep sigh, adding more care and worry to the troubled homeland of China.

In 1862, during the "Taiping Army Rebellion" that caused severe disasters in Nagasaki and Edo, a team of 62 Taiping troops was besieged by more than 2000 Japanese warriors and volunteers. The two sides fought fiercely for more than 4 days Hour.

The large-scale demonstrations that took place last month were a concentrated explosion of dissatisfaction among the people of Fuso against the dark and corrupt rule of the shogunate. It was a voice from the bottom of society, and there was a strong impulse for political innovation.

In the regional situation of the entire Northeast Asia, only the Fusang country meets this condition. Out of its own fundamental interests, it dares to confront Tsarist Russia head-on and fight with its life.

Compared with the blond-haired and blue-eyed Europeans, the language, religion, and customs are different from the Han people, and it is basically impossible to pose a threat to the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Since the "Bombing of Tokyo Incident", Tang, Britain, France, Holland and other countries have all stationed troops in Fusang country, and signed a series of unequal treaties with Fusang shogunate, opened up concessions, dumped industrial products in Fusang country, and reduced it to a Semi-colonial and semi-feudal status.

The reason why it was a demonstration instead of an armed riot must have taken into account the armed intervention of the imperialist army, right?

The fallacies of Li Hongzhang and others were strongly refuted by Zuo Zongtang's "main war theory", who denounced them as "gu thieves of the country".

But the Tang Empire was different. This powerful regime, dominated by the Han people, rose in North America. With its strong military power and profound economic power, as well as its excellent public image in the land of China, it won a lot of praise.

But in many cases, it is not appropriate for the Tang Empire to directly rush to the first line...

Li Cha doesn't care about how to operate it.

If they are left to their own devices, one day the old men from Tsarist Russia will flood into the pass like a tide, and the situation will completely collapse.

The Qing court in today's era is not close to the Tang Empire, but is extremely vigilant about the influence of the Tang Empire on China, and moves closer to the British and French powers in every way.

Manchu Qing and North Korea are not good, and they are not opponents of Tsarist Russia at all.

Li Cha looked up at the large world map hanging in the imperial study room, thoughtfully in his deep eyes, and nodded affirmatively after a long time.

Soldiers from Britain, France, the Netherlands and other countries were equipped with Mini rifles. The power of this rifle can reach 700-800 yards. The lead bullet itself is poisonous.

Li Cha couldn't stand by and watch. Since he was reborn into this world and led the Tang Empire to rise in North America with his bare hands, he shouldered the natural historical mission of saving the poor and weak Shenzhou.

The Manchu Qing court did not lack a huge military force, what it lacked was only money and guns and ammunition, and this was the strength of the Tang Empire.

This is also helpless.

all of these

The reason why the society of Fusang Kingdom is so obedient is that they have become more submissive for a while after being brutally beaten.

In the Fuso society of this era, due to the arms embargo imposed by European, American and Tang countries based on their own interests, the fighting weapons of the powerful clans were mainly samurai swords and spears, with only a few earthen cannons and muskets, and their combat effectiveness was pitifully weak.

Neither sin nor befriend.

Turning back, he picked up the royal brush and said "Shu Shua Shua";
It is related to whether the territory of China is lost or not. We should closely follow the development of the situation, report it in time, and take targeted measures to support it.In order to avoid the success of the conspiracy of the British and Russians to split China, it is very important!

The Han officials in the Manchu Qing court were equally wary of the Tang Empire, including Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, and Li Hongzhang. The poison of enslaving education, of course, sits on the side of the Manchu court.

Putting down his pen, Li Cha looked at it carefully and sighed, now he can only do this.

If the Tang Empire government publicly donated a sum of arms and firearms to the Manchu and Qing courts, those court ministers would definitely start to be suspicious. There was a high probability that they would reject the good intention, and there was a low probability that they would accept the arms and put them on the shelf.

Coupled with the fact that Britain, Russia and other countries have been eyeing Xinjiang, even if Agubai is beaten away this time, "the future will definitely not last long", so why waste money and people?

Outer Mongolia was split because of the invasion of Tsarist Russian forces. Thirty years later, the Tsarist Russian army directly occupied 30 large tracts of land in Jiangdong, separated the three eastern provinces, burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes on the black soil, which brought serious disasters to the local people.

Of course the Great Tang Empire was not a domestic slave, but it was always a Han Chinese with the same blood, culture, and ancestors as the Chinese people. This alone made the Manchu court deeply afraid.

in turn

They waited around the periphery of the Qing Empire, and would pounce on them at any time to bite them and feast on them if they saw an opportunity. This is the tragedy of the Qing Empire.

The various soil cannons and muskets equipped by the Fusang people are only a few tens of yards away, and only two or three hundred yards away. The gap is too great.

"If Xinjiang is not solid, Mongolia will be uneasy, and it will go straight to the north of Guanshan, and there will be no day to sleep. Moreover, the Russians have been eyeing this land, and their desires are hard to fill. If Xinjiang is abandoned, the Russians will definitely make progress and expand eastward. Unbelievable!"

Therefore, including some enlightened Han foreign affairs ministers, they all had a deep vigilance towards the Tang Empire, and adopted a perfunctory attitude of "respecting and keeping a distance".

Britain, France, Russia and other countries are evil wolves, and there is no reason not to eat meat.

The Imperial Security Bureau is a secret operation agency upgraded from the Operation Department. Today, its tentacles have penetrated into the high-level governments of the United States of America and the Confederate States of America. It has stable and reliable news channels in countries such as Britain, France, Prussia, and Japan, and has developed quite well.

If it was a karmic gathering and bought a large number of advanced arms with very little money, I believe that Zuo Zongtang's subordinates could not resist the temptation anyway and used a large amount of equipment.After all, how much military merit is directly related to wearing Hualing and future glory and wealth.

Fusang warriors braved round after round of deadly volleys of gunshots to launch a desperate and senseless charge. Corpses were piled up on the street in layers, and blood flowed into rivers.

The overzealousness shown by the Tang Empire will actually make the Manchu and Qing courts suspicious. This may be the so-called dark psychology of "preferring to foreigners rather than domestic slaves".

Among them, Tsarist Russia is the most vicious and greedy.

I only hope that Mr. Zuo will focus on restoring the great cause of Xinjiang, and don't beggar your neighbor and reject the kindness of the Tang Empire.

The voice of advocating learning from the Tang Empire in the society was very high, which posed a real threat to the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

He wrote another note;
The secret order dispatched 1.2 Colt lever-action rifles and 4000 lances, each equipped with 500 rounds of ammunition, and the Imperial Security Bureau was responsible for properly transferring them to Zuo Zongtang's department for use.

Zuo Zongtang believes that Xinjiang is rich in products, cattle and sheep are everywhere, and it looks like a thousand miles of desert, but it is actually a pot of treasures.

After the second Opium War, the weakness of the Manchu Empire was fully exposed. When Li Cha thought that Britain, Russia and other countries frequently took action in Xinjiang, Tibet and the three eastern provinces, he felt upset.

The battle ended in a disastrous defeat for the Japanese side. More than 1380 people were killed or injured on the battlefield, but only one former Taiping soldier equipped with the 1856 King's rifle was injured, and no one was killed.

this battle

It completely woke up the fanatical Fusang samurai, and also woke up those nationalists who tried to use force to drive away foreign garrisons, and even woke up the names of the powerful vassals.

Facing the sharp firearms of European and American powers, no matter how many people there are, it will be for nothing.
