It was like a small stone thrown into the originally calm lake, causing infinite ripples.

"Didn't you say that the British will not send troops?" Guan Xu looked at Li Hongzhang kneeling in front of him coldly and said.

Li Hongzhang lowered his head and leaned on the ground and said, "I am not good at doing things well, please punish the emperor."

"As my Qing Dynasty's foreign minister and military minister, you were played with by the British Foreign Minister. The British planned to send troops, but I, the Qing Dynasty, were not prepared at all. You, you foolishly told me that the British would not send troops. At the last moment, the Qing Dynasty had no preparation yet!" Guan Xuqing scolded Li Hongzhang.

Li Hongzhang was so scared that he knelt on the ground and his whole body was trembling. He kept saying: "I am guilty, please ask the emperor to punish him."

Prince Gong hurriedly said: "This time it was the British who betrayed the faith and it was not Li Zhongtang's fault. I think the most important thing now is how to deal with the provocations of the British."

"Okay." Guan Xuqing calmed down and said, "Since Prince Gong pleads with me, I will only punish you for one year. I hope you will be punished with great advice in the future. Get up and talk back."

Only then did Li Hongzhang feel relieved, and stood up and wiped the cold sweat all over his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Guan Xuqing sat on the dragon throne and looked majestic at the military ministers on both sides and said, "This time the British betrayed their faith and invaded our vassal state. They treated our Qing Dynasty as nothing. If they did not punish them, how could they correct the national system?" A simple sentence seemed to set the tone of the following conversation.

"I think that the British attack on Myanmar this time is not to give me too much reaction time for the Qing Dynasty. I hope to eat Myanmar in one bite. At that time, it was a fact that I, the Qing Dynasty, could no longer be saved." Weng Tongshu said.

"What Lord Weng said is, but Britain is several times more likely to be the Qing Dynasty in the Far East, both the army and the navy. It is probably difficult to win this battle!" Prince Chun objectively analyzed the situation of the enemy and us.

Guan Xuqing listened to their words and words. Although he dared not say it clearly, the meaning he expressed was that the Qing Dynasty was far from being against the British. It was no benefit to send troops to Myanmar for the country and the people.

"Hmph, why did I always give the British a lot of excitement after listening for a long time? What are the army and the navy? My Qing Dynasty's strong army is several times higher than my Qing Dynasty! My British barbarians entered Myanmar's only two divisions and tens of thousands of people. His Indian Ocean fleet is all dilapidated warships, which is far from the main iron-clad ships of our Qing Dynasty. What are you afraid of?" If you can kill people, the military ministers present have been killed several times.

Li Hongzhang, who had just been severely denounced, suddenly said: "Emperor, the British barbarians are traitorous. I, the Qing Dynasty, do not need to believe in it. If China and Britain go to war, sea control will still be the top priority. The British supply line must pass through the Indian Ocean from any direction. As long as we cut off its supply line, the British will be defeated without fighting."

Guan Xuqing sat upright from the dragon throne, looked at Li Hongzhang with his eyes glowing, and said, "Speak."

Li Hongzhang continued: "But the British navy is three times the strength of our Qing Dynasty, and the Pacific Fleet is one of the main British fleets. In the hinterland of our Qing Dynasty, there is a British fleet docked in Hong Kong. According to my understanding, it is a iron-clad ship, two cruisers, and five gunboats, with a total tonnage of less than 10,000 tons. I suggest that the Qing Dynasty's Taiwan branch and Vietnamese branch encircle it. First annihilate the British one.

Chaos rebirth is the king of another world http://www.77nt/23488/The rebirth of forces, avoiding a decisive battle with the main British force, and the truth is to divide and annihilate it."

The world is too crazy. Li Hongzhang actually wants to fight against Britain. Seeing that Li Hongzhang, who is usually concessionate and unwilling to make progress, was actually inspired by the fooling of British foreign history this time.

Guan Xuqing looked at him with a smile and said slowly: "The sea war is sea power rather than one or two warships. We should focus on the big picture and not be greedy for such small profits. The British fleet that destroyed Hong Kong is of no benefit in the overall situation. Only by defeating the British Pacific Fleet can we truly control the sea power. Moreover, the Hong Kong fleet is now a bird in a cage, and keeping it can still attract the British fleet to rescue it."

"I am ignorant, please give me advice." Li Hongzhang said with a pious look on his face.

Guan Xuqing stood up from the dragon throne, walked to a world map and stopped, and the military ministers behind him followed him one after another.

"Look, Vietnam is the closest to the Indian Ocean on the southeast coast of the Qing Dynasty. But the sea routes were blocked by Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand in the middle. Only by entering the narrow Strait of Malacca from Singapore can you enter the Indian Ocean. Hongzhang, if you are a British general, where would you put their most elite Pacific fleet?" Guan Xuqing asked pointing to the map.

"Singapore?" Li Hongzhang said in surprise.

"Uncle Six, what do you think?" Guan Xuqing looked at Prince Gong in a blink of an eye.

"Back to the emperor, as long as the British defend the Strait of Malacca, our Qing warships will not be able to enter the Indian Ocean, and they will not be able to cut off their logistics supply from Afghanistan and India to Myanmar." Prince Gong said slowly at the map.

Guan Xuqing nodded with satisfaction and continued, "So, I decided to let the Qingshui Army sneak attack Singapore. I dare to bet that the British Pacific Fleet must be in Singapore. Sinking one ship is considered one, at least the British dare not transport supplies unscrupulously in the Indian Ocean. I have to put such pressure on him, so that the British can always feel that the Strait of Malacca will be captured by my Qingshui Army one day." After Guan Xuqing said that, he looked at the sky outside the window, and the domineering aura that was no exception to me was unnaturally emanating from him, making people feel that he would worship him.

Everyone looked at each other, looking at the 16-year-old emperor, and never spoke out for dissuasion.

"twitter."

The news of Britain's invasion of Myanmar has been circulated through several southern newspapers such as the Qing Dynasty Daily, Shenbao, Cycle Daily, Guowenbao, etc. It is said that the British are treacherous. They are calculating when the emperor announced his troops to send troops to Myanmar, and then drove the British devils out like defeating the French in Annan. It is impossible not to mention the impact of the Sino-French war on the people. The resentment accumulated since 1840 has finally been exuded, reshaping the image of a great country that has come to the dynasty for all countries.

In the study of Prince Li’s mansion.

"Uncle Fifth, I, Ama, died early. Don't mess with me?" Zai Lian asked skeptically.

Shi Duo smiled coldly after hearing this, he pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said, "You will understand when you look at this."

"Guangxu moved guns, cannons and ammunition to the south?" Zai Lian frowned and looked up at Shi Duo and said, "Uncle Wu, where did this news come from?"

Shi Duo waved and said, "You don't have to worry about where the news comes from. In short, it is definitely true faith. Do you see any meaning?"

Zai Lian thought for a while and said, "Is it because I want to fight in the south and be with the British? Guangxu is crazy!"

"Guangxu took advantage of the reason for reorganizing the new army and transported all the guns, cannons and ammunition from the nine major situations to the south. It was so secret that there was no news in the court, so it would never be meaningless to do so. Moreover, I received a secret report that Zuo Zongtang said that he was going to Jiangnan to inspect the new army, but in fact he turned to Yunnan. From this point of view, Guangxu was really preparing for something, and maybe he was really preparing to go to war with the British."

"Guangxu was addicted to war. Britain is different from France, and Vietnam is not Myanmar. He wanted to copy it like the French in Vietnam and the French in Myanmar, and it was like that in Myanmar, and the British in Myanmar," Zai Lian said.

"Hahaha, we don't care about this. The war is the silver from the court, and the soldiers of Guangxu died. It is his victory. It is his loss. It has nothing to do with us. I want to tell you that the domestic guns and artillery bureaus have developed new grenades now, and major guns and artillery bureaus are rushing to make new things. So guns and artillery are imported from Germany and the United States. It is estimated that Guangxu wants to arm all the newly conquered new troops as soon as possible and go to Myanmar to fight if necessary." Shi Duo said in a low voice.

Zai Lian said as if he was not concerned about his own affairs: "What does this have to do with me? He had already cut off the Eight Banners' troops. Xiao Wang has not even had a single soldier. Why? He Guangxu would also equip me with weapons?"

"Now the Northeast, Xinjiang, and Mongolia are empty in defense, and the new army is mostly in the south of the Yangtze River. When German guns and cannons arrive, Guangxu will definitely transfer the new army to the north. I recommend you to be a general, how about asking you to lead troops?" Shiduo said excitedly.

"Me? Can he be willing?" Zai Lian drooled excitedly.

"You can't let the Han people take all the military power, you have to give it up to our bannermen. You have been to the martial arts lecture hall and have brought soldiers before. In addition, this king recommended it, it should be no big problem." Shi Duo said confidently.

Zai Lian heard this and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If this is true, that would be great. When Guangxu threw all the soldiers to the south and fought with the British, my soldiers outside the pass could turn around and maybe we could still get the support of the British."
