Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Putting his ear against the swollen belly, Xiao Yungui felt a young life inside moving. The feeling was very strange. There was only one thought running through his mind, this was his and Yun'er's child.  ^¡ª¡ªSite-wide advertising¡ª¡ªWelcome to visit^^

    Every man will feel great happiness and satisfaction when he becomes a father for the first time, and Xiao Yungui is no exception. Although he had many girlfriends in his previous life, none of them had ever conceived a child. At that time, Xiao Yungui was still a dazed young man and had no desire at all.  He knows the word cherish, but now a time travel has changed him a lot.

    Gently caressing Hong Yun'er's abdomen, Xiao Yungui's big hand caressed her weak shoulders. Looking at Hong Yun'er's eyes that were also full of happiness, he murmured: "Yun'er, don't worry, I won't give up."  Even if I risk my life, I will protect you mother and son, and I will definitely make you mother and son happy."

    Hong Yun'er's face had a faint blush, and she hummed softly. The two sat hugging each other and enjoyed a moment of tranquility.  After a while, Hong Yun'er was the first to ask: "You wrote that you have a few major things to do when you return to Suzhou this time. Do you have a clue?"

    Xiao Yungui chuckled softly and said, "Why don't we just sit quietly like this? Don't mention those disturbing things."

    Hong Yun'er said softly: "Didn't you just say that you want to protect our mother and son? If you don't do great things, how can you protect our mother and son? Have you ever thought about it, if we lose power one day, we will die without a burial place.  of."

    Xiao Yungui shuddered and said with a forced smile: "Okay, I will try my best to do better for you mother and son." At that moment, Xiao Yungui put away his thoughts and said in a concentrated voice: "The first thing is to conquer Fujian.  I'm a little worried."

    Hong Yun'er nodded and said: "You mentioned this in your letter. The Staff Department of the Ministry of War has also made several detailed plans. Now the two new divisions in Ningbo County plus the local rural soldiers should be enough to cope with the war in Fujian.  <<>>The full text advertising interface on the Internet is fresh and the first choice among book friends. Why are you still worried?¡±

    Xiao Yungui muttered: "I'm not worried about the Staff Department's combat plan or the combat effectiveness of the new division. What I'm worried about is Li Xiucheng." Taiping Blood 351

    Hong Yun'er was slightly surprised, then reacted: "Are you worried that Li Xiucheng has too much power?"

    Xiao Yungui nodded and said: "Our future loyal king is now quite prestigious in Ningbo. You who are in charge of the Intelligence Department should know what his relatives and friends under Li Xiucheng have done in Ningbo. Just last month I  As soon as they received it, there were no less than ten incidents of the Li family doing great things in Ningbo, not to mention the extravagance and waste in small things. Surrounding Li Xiucheng in Ningbo, his family members will form a relationship with those so-called relatives.  They have formed a huge interest group, and I want to dismantle Li Xiucheng's interest group as soon as possible. I don't want the new editors to be eroded by them, and I don't want to clean up this mess after taking over Fujian."

    Hong Yun'er sighed softly and said: "Everything has pros and cons. When we abolished the public system of the Holy Treasury and allowed the restoration of the private system, we expected that there would be today's situation. Not all of our generals can do it.  As we expect to be honest and dedicated to the public, human nature is selfish. Once the private system is opened, there will definitely be people who form cliques for personal gain. Li Xiucheng has a high prestige in the military. Although he himself can still restrain himself and serve the public, the same cannot be said for the people under him.  .Li Xiucheng was a soft-hearted person. Historically, he knew that several other princes who stayed in Suzhou might be disadvantageous to Tan Shaoguang, but he still did not take action first, which led to several princes killing Tan Shaoguang and surrendering to the Qing Dynasty. He was soft-hearted on such a major matter.  , not to mention that his subordinates are just seeking some personal gain? Presumably he is not unaware of these things, but he just thinks that he is a brother who has been through life and death and can't afford to investigate. "

    Xiao Yungui snorted coldly and said: "My heart is not soft, and I don't plan to send Li Xiucheng to command the battle in Fujian. I plan to send Li Kaifang to command. Anyone who breaks the law in Ningbo must be cleaned up. Li Xiucheng  I plan to treat him like Chen Yucheng and send him to a military academy to study."

    Hong Yun'er nodded and said: "It's up to you to decide. Since Su Fu's New Deal, we have only begun to see some results. What is the New Deal? To put it bluntly, it is the new rules. Those who break the rules must be severely punished in order to maintain the New Deal. However,  This matter needs to be discussed with the left prime minister before launching it, and I will also send people from the Intelligence Department to help."

    Xiao Yungui smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to worry about this matter. I had already discussed it with the Left Prime Minister when we were in Shanghai. When I return to Suzhou, I will summon Li Xiucheng there. I guess he will arrive in the next few days."  I summoned Li Xiucheng here. Li Kaifang over in Ningbo has already inspected the military situation. The two new editors plus the cooperation of Liu Lichuan and Bai Zetang can control the overall situation in the shortest time. As long as the main criminal is taken down, there will be no trouble.  What a mess. I still believe in Li Kaifang and Liu Lichuan¡¯s abilities."

    Hong Yun'er was slightly surprised and said: "Okay, you're doing things in secret and you're hiding it from even me. I guess the Qianjiang Intelligence Department isWill you also participate in this operation?  "

    Xiao Yungui smiled and held Hong Yun'er's hand and said: "I was worried that you would have to work on these things during the pregnancy, so I didn't let them tell you. Don't worry, I will handle this matter carefully. <  <>>The full text advertisement interface on the Internet is fresh and book friends prefer Qianjiang. The activities of the Intelligence Department have already started in Ningbo last year, and this operation can also be used. However, this time we must keep confidentiality first. I want to keep it secret.  Once activated, the attack will be successful. You can rest assured to raise your child, and I will coordinate with the Intelligence Department in a timely manner."

    Hong Yun'er pouted and said, "It's not like I can't do anything." Xiao Yungui smiled and said, "You are the first child mentally, so it's better to be cautious." Hong Yun'er was embarrassed and fiercely  He pinched Xiao Yungui's waist.

    Hong Yun'er followed and said, "Is there anything else?"

    Xiao Yungui touched his chin and said: "There is another big thing. The British and French suffered losses in the war with the Russians in the Far East. The British and French allied forces immediately sent a 700-man Marine Corps to land to prepare for a raid on Russia.  Pavlovsk naval port. However, they were caught in an ambush set by the Russian army, and suffered more than half of the casualties and had to retreat. Two sea and land attacks by the British and French navies failed to work, so they had to retreat to Vancouver and San Francisco in North America to consolidate and standby.  On the Crimean battlefield, the two sides were still in a stalemate. The new British Minister Bao Ling, who replaced Lord Wenham, was having a hard time because of this defeat. When we met before, I accidentally mentioned that we could send troops to join the war, and he seemed a little moved.  .¡±

    Hong Yun'er asked in confusion: "Now that the war in our country has not subsided, why bother to open another front? Moreover, the Russians in the Far East occupy Vladivostok and the Kamchatka Peninsula in the north. We want to send troops to such a distant place  Is it cost-effective to fight locally?¡±

    Xiao Yungui nodded and said: "I still have some scruples, so I came back to discuss it with you and the Prime Minister. This is not some wild idea. I asked Tan Shaoguang to establish a young guard army in Shanghai, with a number of three thousand people.  Around. These people are our reserve officers in the future, but they have not experienced actual combat. I want them to fight directly with the Russians. After all, among our future imaginary enemies, the Russians are considered the number one enemy. We can accumulate some first.  The combat experience with foreigners is also good. Moreover, Russia is now unable to look eastward. The Russian Governor-General of Siberia Muravyov cannot mobilize many troops. The British and French dare to launch an attack on the Lopavlovsk military port with more than 700 people.  I think it should be enough to invest two or three thousand troops to march north. Not to mention that we don¡¯t need to dispatch the navy. We only invest in the army, and the British and French fleets at sea will escort and transport them. At the same time, they can also provide fire support for attacking the military port.  , I think the British and French also dare not move north on a large scale because they have too few troops to mobilize in the Far East. If our army and their navy join forces, we will definitely be able to capture several Russian strongholds in the north. By then, it will be like  We have occupied the Lopavlovsk military port. Even if we can't use it, the British and French will definitely be greedy. We can also use the captured military port to complete a transaction with the British and French."

    Hong Yun'er asked: "What deal?"

    Xiao Yungui said with a smile: "I will ask for British or French warships in exchange for the captured Russian strongholds. You also know that Russia will definitely fail in the Crimean War, so we will send troops at this time to grab some soon-to-be-obtained strongholds.  The fruits of victory are also deserved. It would be a sin not to eat the fat on your lips." Taiping Blood 351

    After listening to this, Hong Yun'er pondered for a moment and said: "Listening to what you said, there are many benefits to helping the British and French send troops to attack the strongholds and ports in northern Russia, but I am worried about four problems. One. Once we send troops, we will  It means that the Taiping Rebellion declared war on Russia, and I am worried that it will push the Russians to the Manchu side. Secondly, it is the threat from the British and the French. Although we have an army, if we go north by sea, we will have to rely on other people's navy for transportation. If  The only problem we had with Britain and France during this period was that we sent 3,000 hostages to them in vain. Thirdly, if we exposed the strength of our army early, I am worried that if we really turn against Britain and France in the future, we will lose the upper hand. The last one  The question is, will Bao Ling be willing to cooperate with us and send troops?"

    Xiao Yungui hummed and said: "I have also considered the issues you are worried about. The Russians are very ambitious. Once Russia fails in the Crimean War, the Double-Headed Eagle will temporarily lose the opportunity to develop westward, so regardless of whether we  If we are not at odds with Russia, Russia will definitely seek development to the east. This trend cannot be changed no matter what. So sooner or later we will have to confront Russia. So there is no need to worry about Russia cooperating with the Manchus. Really we will launch the Northern Expedition  At that time, those shameless people in the Manchu Qing Dynasty will definitely borrow help from Russia to suppress the enemy, and Russia also wants to take advantage of the opportunity to expand eastward, so without us pushing it, Russia and the Manchu Qing Dynasty will wear the same pants sooner or later."

    Xiao Yungui paused and then said: "As for the attitude of Britain and France, it is not a problem. At least until the end of the Crimean War, we and Britain and FranceEven in the honeymoon period, as long as we can win the war quickly and sign a treaty with Britain and France to share the spoils after the war, we can be sure that we will immediately withdraw to Shanghai.  If it really doesn't work, we can also ask the navies of Ningbo and Shanghai to provide transport fleets, and we can transport the troops there ourselves.  Although our navy does not have warships that can compete with Britain and France, it has many ships, many of which can still conduct ocean voyages. It is also good for the navy to go to sea to practice its skills.  "

    Xiao Yungui finally sighed and said: "I am not worried about the leakage of our strength, because there are many foreign instructors in our military academy. I don't think we can keep the secret of our military strength. On the contrary, if Britain and France knew the strength of our army, they might still  It will have some deterrent effect. As for the last question, if Bao Ling wants to win the war and make a difference, he won't worry too much. Anyway, everyone gets what they need. I think with appropriate cooperation, he will agree to our participation in the war.  "." Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
