[It’s Spring Festival, I can’t write when I go home, so I’ll save it first~ Sorry~ I wish you all a happy new year~ I’m having some troubles at home recently, it’s hard to calm down and write~ I believe it will be better after the New Year, best wishes Me~]

Tch, even without me, nine years later, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces would still rush into Beijing, burn, kill and loot?

Long Hao sneered disdainfully, and then said quietly: "Everyone, I didn't ask the imperial court to give this new army a title immediately! The new army's title is essentially not disclosed to the public. The simple meaning is: In fact, only the emperor knows the formation of this new army..."

Cui Guoyin and others are not stupid, after hearing this, they immediately realized: That is to say, when necessary, the emperor can deny this new army! !

Cui Guoyin and Ouyang Geng's nervousness was relieved immediately after they found out that they could be 'sloppy'.

Cui Guoyin frowned: "Well, with all due respect, this organization is like a castle in the air, and it won't benefit Long Xiaoyou at all!"

Long Hao grinned: "Why is it not good? At least it is good for you...Ambassador Cui, let me be more thorough. The personnel of this new army can be completely appointed by the emperor. The elites under me are only responsible for training , Command! After the first bloody battle in Havana, Cuba, and after seeing the performance of this new army, the emperor may not be willing to be an abandoned son, and he will abandon it..."

Someone sent by the emperor?

Cui Guoyin, who is the emperor's teacher Weng Tonghe, seemed to be enlightened, and his eyes immediately burst into boundless joy: My God, this is a heaven-sent opportunity to build a team for the emperor and fight against Lafayette and Li Zhongtang's "Beiyang" ah! ! !

Ouyang Geng's reaction was only a little slower than Cui Guoyin's. When he figured it out, as a member of Li Hongzhang's lineage, his complexion immediately turned gray, extremely ugly!

"This matter is necessary!"

"Absolutely not!"

Cui Guoyin and Ouyang Geng shouted words with completely different meanings almost at the same time.

Long Hao narrowed his eyes: "Oh? The two adults seem to have different opinions. Who should I listen to?"

Cui Guoyin held his head high and held his chest high: "Yujie, I am the imperial court's official ambassador abroad, so you should listen to me! On behalf of the emperor, I assure you that you will be responsible for the training and command of this new army, and everything will come true." Afterwards, the remuneration we give to Mr. Viscount will also be greatly increased!"

Ouyang Geng was a little anxious, and interjected: "No, absolutely not! My court has never stationed troops outside the country, and even Mr. Zhongtang, who is well-known in the foreign circle, has never developed Beiyang overseas! Cui Ambassador, Long Xiaoyou, if you do this, you will put the court in danger! It is an act of disloyalty and filial piety!"

Cui Guoyin sternly reprimanded: "Ouyang Geng, I knew you were Li Hongzhang's confidant, why? You don't allow the emperor to do things that Beiyang can't do? In your eyes, is it the emperor? Or Li Hongzhang? big?"

In a word, Ambassador Cui and Ouyang Geng broke their faces, and the previous tacit understanding was gone!

The reason is very simple, a 'military power' thrown out by Long Hao lightly, just scratched Cui Guoyin, or the 'itch point' of the royalist forces behind Cui Guoyin, so he couldn't help but give in!

Amid Long Hao's triumphant smile, Ouyang Geng was sweating profusely, and he winked at Ouyang Ming: "Brother, hurry up and help me persuade Ambassador Cui, don't trap me in Qing Dynasty just because of Long Hao's rhetoric." An extremely dangerous situation! Once this new army is cultivated, it will be a serious disaster!"

Ouyang Ming remained silent. Although he and Ouyang Geng were cousins, their political views were not close to Li Hongzhang's.

After thinking for a while, Ouyang Ming said in a deep voice, "Hey, Zhao Ting, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that Xiaoyou Long's request is reasonable and not excessive. We took advantage of Major Castillo's spring spirit and paid almost no price. , can establish a foreign gun team overseas, it is really a good deal! And Long Xiaoyou also agreed, at a critical moment, the emperor can deny the existence of this team, which can be said to be very beneficial to the Qing Dynasty It’s harmless, so why not try it?”

Ouyang Ming's words were quite fair, Ouyang Geng's face was ashen and speechless, but Cui Guoyin's face was radiant, and he sighed: "Hui Ting righteously destroys relatives, if you want it, you just want to let it go!"
