Chapter 382 We, stand up!

"It's so late, go to bed."

"I'm fine, Your Majesty. If you think I'm bored, I'll sit down."

In the noise of the train, Li Mo pushed Du Dazhuang, who was hiding on the side and dozing off, but he didn't expect that this big guy thought he was annoying to him and was ready to retreat far away.

Li Mo really couldn't laugh or cry. He quickly shook his head to let him sit down, and then smiled and said, "Da Zhuang, you have been following me for so many years. Do you feel a little wronged?"

"No, I'm not wronged!" Du Dazhuang was shocked and shook his head quickly.

Looking at his nervous and naive look, Li Mo knew that the big man was misunderstood and hurriedly said, "Come on, you look strong. Why are you so timid? Don't worry, I won't kick you out! I just heard Zhang Shun say that your biggest intention is to really want to fight a battle, so I have such a question.

Hearing that he didn't want himself, Du Dazhuang breathed a sigh of relief, scratched his head and said with a simple smile, "It's a little aggrieved." But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that he could not say grievances to the emperor, and quickly waved his hand and said anxiously, "Oh, no, no, I have some thoughts."

"Yes, there is no soldier who doesn't want to fight. Soldiers who don't want to fight are not soldiers." Li Mo patted Da Zhuang on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Look at the opportunity. If there is a chance, I will let you have a good time."

"Really!" Hearing this, Du Dazhuang stood up suddenly, and his eyes were bright. In fact, what Li Mo said was really good. He really wanted to fight, especially when he saw Zhang Shunluofeng and others in those years. Now they are alone, but he is still nestled here. It's false to say that he is not moved.

Especially in the Forbidden Guard, there are veterans who came down from the battlefield. Whenever he hears them talk about the war in the past, he always feels bitter in his mouth, but now that the south has calmed down, there are only a few short rabbit tails left in Xinjiang Province. What about the war?

"Idiot!" Li Mo punched him angrily: "The Russians are not dead!" We haven't got it back in Siberia yet! Besides, the British are willing to slip away so discouraged?

"Let me tell you, there is still a battle to be fought!"

"Yes!" Du Dazhuang touched his head and nodded quickly like pounding garlic. It seemed that he had a good idea to continue to fight.

Li Mo shook his head and ignored the loyal bodyguard, who had been called "high and big, good to block the gun" by Fu Bo. He walked to the window, but after lifting the thick curtains, he found that the bright table lamp on the table could only make the outside look more chaotic and dark.

This is like the international situation in front of him. Yunnan has recovered, which means that the southeast has returned to the arms of China after several years of mutual insurance. If it hadn't been for the delay in Xinjiang because of the weather and the long supply line, maybe it would have celebrated the national reunification at this moment.

However, the rebels in Xinjiang Province have not supported for a long time. Under the wave of offensives of the Northwest Army, the rebels suffered heavy losses. At this moment, they could not even do a decent attack. And when the news of the full withdrawal of the British army from Xinhua reached Europe, I believe that even if Nicholas II was arrogant, he would not be willing to prepare for the situation. Xiahe and Xinhua launched a full-scale war.

Whether the previous decision is wrong or not, Xinhua can finally really get a period of respite. The return of the southeast means that the work of the Prime Minister's Office will also accelerate the unification, to establish a local government axe based on counties and cities as soon as possible, resume production, implement new policies and Accelerate the construction of the south.

Compared with the north, the trend of foreign affairs in the south is deeper. Whether it is the Jiangnan Machinery Bureau in Shanghai, the Shipping Bureau in Guangzhou and Fujian, or the steel factory in Hanyang, it can be regarded as a relatively good industrial base in China and has a certain industrial foundation, which makes the Prime Minister's Office more choice.

And China will officially get the opportunity to rest and recuperate, practice hard and immerse yourself in construction. From now on, I have almost ten years. What can I do in ten years? Some people may not be very clear, but look at the ten years of reform and opening up in later generations, what can be done by concentrating all the national resources!

This is also his original intention to have vague opinions on the construction of political parties after the establishment of the Constitution. He knows that Li Enfu is preparing to build the Greater China Party, and that the parliament represented by Rong Kui is forming the Mingzhu Liberal Party, and the Prime Minister's Office only issued the boarding licenses of these two political parties after he first studied the idea of the two-party system in the United States. For the time being, there will be no living space for other small parties in Xinhua except for their dependence on the two parties. The purpose is to cultivate and strengthen these two parties, so in the future, Xinhua is likely to be in the rotation of the two parties.

As a constitutional emperor, he did not participate in the party, and Chen Ping, Long Guozhang and Zhao Long also strictly abided by the requirement that his army must be neutral, took the initiative to draw a clear line with the party, and once again made clear the rule that the army did not interfere in politics in the army, and began to strengthen the emperor as the supreme head of state. In this era when the trend of imperial power was still very strong, this approach did not suffer any resistance.

The military's approach allows him to continue to control military power, and also controls part of the right to speak to the outside world. Coupled with his ambiguity, Li Enfu and Rong Kui are a little confused about whether he supports or opposes in political parties, so the speed of construction is not fast.

The reason for doing this is actually to fall into political party quarrels as soon as possible, and concentrate the current national resources as much as possible to build and improve industrial capacity and improve people's living standards.

China is very large, and with the overseas territories it has brought to this country, resources are no longer the biggest problem for development. In terms of the total amount of resources, it is even more than the United States, which lacks overseas territories and only relies on domestic resources.

Moreover, the rapid solution to the Manchu Qing Dynasty was solved quickly. The unification of the south made it possible to retain the wealth of the late Qing Dynasty. One poor and two white can no longer be imposed on Xinhua. According to the statistics of the Prime Minister's Office, even if it is not counted as the emerging industry, the annual national fiscal revenue is about 60 million blue coins. To put it bluntly, Five to six Chinese ships can be built every year.

This is income, not gross national product, so later generations said that the late Qing Dynasty ruined the family's wealth. In fact, it began to decline after the Jiawu, but now there is no Jiawu, and there is no compensation for a large amount of foreign debt later, the family is still very rich.

At least according to the calculations of the Prime Minister's Office, this income can be ranked seventh in the world, and most of them are profits from agriculture and agricultural products. Therefore, when this income is in front of him, his initial dream of abolishing agricultural tax can only be temporarily put on hold before the real financial pressure.

Because compared with the huge investment, the income is almost disproportionate, transportation, water conservancy, electricity, communications, education, etc., according to the Prime Minister's Office's forecast, no less than 500 million will be invested every year!

Even with the industrial and commercial income that has begun to rise in the north, it is far from enough!

Therefore, the current political axe is still a net investment, which is used in the enterprises established in Honolulu and some monopoly resources similar to rubber to subsidize finance. Therefore, after seeing the mature vulcanized rubber technology, he would rather suppress small-scale self-use rather than sell it to the outside world, in order to maximize foreign wealth. Rich, but even so, the fiscal deficit of the political axe can scare many people.

Fortunately, this is the gold standard era. As long as there is gold, you can print money at full power, so Li Enfu is the most active in looking for gold mines. Not to mention Luzon, Borneo and the whole Southeast Asia, these gold-producing places, even after hearing Li Mo said that there was gold in the South Chiba Islands, he immediately arranged the Ministry of Mineral Resources to mine it. It even allowed the North Korean garrison to forcibly occupy a small gold mine that was just found on the island of the four countries of Japan, which is predicted to contain only 500 tons at most, and sent 10,000 people to take crazy predatory mining!

It is shameless, but very effective. Under his crazy gold action, the current Xinhua political axe can bring back more than 80 tons of gold every year, more than Master Li's 50 tons, and the number is increasing every day, which means that the political axe can print at least 80 million more blue coins every year to supply market needs.

In the case of tight funds and how to make good use of the current few resources, it is a great waste for political parties to quarrel, so Li Mo has been ambiguous until now, in order to take advantage of the current period of centralized ideology to make use of national resources as much as possible and invest in some important construction.

Ten years, two five-year plans, if you can wake up greater private wealth and invest in industry and commerce, it is not a dream to change your face. Don't expect to surpass the United States first, but at least it is very likely to enter the top three in the world!

It is very simple, because Xinhua is only the current land area, which exceeds the whole of Europe, not including Russia, and is much larger than the United States.

With his own guidance, Li Mo believes that after a year at most, after the Prime Minister's Office completes the national political axe framework, boldly implements the new policy, and solves the internal containment, Xinhua will officially enter the fast lane.

But when the situation in China began to become clearer and brighter, the outside world became blurred because the domestic lights were getting brighter and brighter.

Britain withdrew from the land of China, and the Far East Fleet even ran back to India to recuperate. France avoided Vietnam, and the Netherlands honestly hid in Java and Sumatra. Even if the dragon's teeth were pulled out, it only protested twice. What's more, the Portuguese political axe also took the initiative to come to the gully, hoping to use Macao. Chips, negotiate a good condition.

Li Mo has no idea about this. Maybe one battalion is enough, but everything can't always rely on force. What's more, Portugal is the suzerain of Brazil, and it is worth paying some conditions to have a good relationship with this South American resource country.

After the United States ends the failed Cuba, its eyes will definitely extend to South America and the Pacific Ocean. This is not the decision of politicians. This is the choice of the times. When domestic cheap goods are flooded, is there a huge population of more than 400 million similar to Xinhua? How to find a buyer for these goods is the most urgent thing. Therefore, the United States must still take the old path of expansion. Even if it does not get the Philippines and Cuba, it will accelerate this external expansion to make up for the losses and consumption in Cuba.

The conservative Germany still started to build a scratch level. With Britain getting the technology in a few months, Europe will officially fall into a hot shipbuilding competition, which is a few years earlier than history, and also indicates that the future will be more and more uncertain.

As for Russia.

Well, the war with Russia in the next few years is inevitable. Rather than Nicholas II's revenge, it is better to say that he is in love with the huge Siberia. It is necessary to establish a huge buffer zone with Russia, which helps to resist the European cold currents coming from land.

But he seems to have gone too far. Where is Nicholas II's superfleet, known as 40 capital ships, going to come from the Far East?

Thinking of this, Li Mo couldn't help laughing. He really thought too much, but if Nicholas really didn't send his "super fleet" to death, but stayed in Europe to continue to make trouble, the fun would be great!

Whether there are really 40 capital ships in the end, at least it is Europe's huge former China-class fleet second only to Britain. If you stay in Europe, I'm afraid the whole Europe will be sleepless at night!

In a mess!

It's really messy. It turns out that when I read novels in the past, I traveled with golden fingers and took the learning machine back to fight honestly. It's actually impossible to fight World War II, because history is history. If you add some ingredients to history, how can you continue to restore it?

It's like two lovers suddenly joined a third party, no conflict! Don't drive!

How is it possible?!

After thinking about it, Li Mo picked up the pen and dropped it after thinking for a while under Du Dazhuang's bright eyes.

Xiong Xiling held the newspaper and walked into Changsha Yuelu Academy with a smile, which is the largest in Hunan and one of the cores of the reform in the late Qing Dynasty. The college that local students most dream of entering has been officially included in the list of universities to be renovated and expanded into comprehensive surnames by the Xinhua Ministry of Education after the restoration of Hunan.

With this news, it was the breathing of excitement in the college, and today there are two other good news. The land of China has finally ended the ceding of the land concession. The shameful years of the great powers have ushered in a new life after several months of gunfire in the southeast.

"After I picked up the pen and wrote a few words, I suddenly found that my words were really not good, so I hope I don't choose to print directly when it is published."

"Hehe..."

Xiong Xiling held the newspaper and was surrounded by students and a large number of young people from Yuelu Academy. When they heard this opening, they immediately laughed and turned back and shouted, "Brother Xiong, you can't read it wrong. How can the emperor write like this!"

Xiong Xiling also smiled, shook his head, but quickly became serious again. He said seriously, "I'm not mistaken. This is indeed the emperor's article. You will probably think it funny and feel that the emperor says that his words are ugly like a child, but in my opinion, this is exactly the emperor and the public. The same side.

Because the emperor dares to face his weaknesses and tell the world his shortcomings. Good is good, and bad is bad! Only when you dare to face your weaknesses and shortcomings can you change it and overcome it!

Which of you can do this?

See the real name in detail. Have you forgotten the sentence taught by gentlemen? It is because of the emperor's true surname that he is unwilling to hide in the sea to be a rich man. In the end, he risked his life and death to expel foreigners with a bad name and save my China. Do you still think it's coke?

In Xiong Xiling's sonorous words, the young people in the venue were silent and self-reflection. It's simple to say, but how many people can do it?

"Today, when the news of the restoration of Yunnan came, I heard the sound of firecrackers outside, but I couldn't lift any excitement, because today, an era is over!" Xiong Xiling read Li Mo's article in the newspaper loudly. His voice was loud and loud, and his eyes around him slowly condensed again.

"Yes, an era is over!"

"A braid has bound our nation for hundreds of years."

"A period of humiliation made us lose the opportunity to participate in an era of great change. When foreigners drove an iron armored warship and smashed our doors with opium and cannons, we were at a loss!"

"Once upon a time, the compatriots around us began to sink under the poison of opium. Once upon a time, foreigners were privileged to put up signs that Chinese and dogs were not allowed to enter! Once upon a time, with tears in our eyes, we signed a lease treaty in various places, watching our land become someone else's racecourse!"

"In the humiliation of our lives!"

"Our compatriots began to be numb, our siblings became slaves of foreigners, and our land began to shrink!"

"My heart hurts, I shed tears, because the China I love deeply has five thousand years of devastating civilization. It once raised the whole world, but because a small group of people lost its pride for their own interests!"

"But!"

"At such a time when the country is in danger, some people have not given up, just like the towering Kunlun Mountain. There are always some people in this nation!"

Before the sickbed, Lv Weitang held the newspaper and was a little excited. On the sickbed, Li Hongzhang's face was thin and his hair was white, but his eyes were bright as bright as never before. His hand held Zhang Zhidong and Liu Kun, who had worked with him for many years.

Lv Weitang paused for a moment and continued to read, "We have Zuo Zongtang! When the Hui people rebelled, the province of Xinjiang was divided, the huge northwest was rotten, and the Russians had already stared at it, it was him! It was he who held the coffin, with the heroic 60,000 sons of the Hunan army, on the vast Gobi, with the firm belief in maintaining the unity of the country, he stepped on Qilian Mountain, shed tears on the top of Kunlun, drank ice and snow, eat wind and sand, and returned to the enemy with blood!"

"We have Li Hongzhang! With the power of one hand, he let the sons and daughters of China see the outside world. It was he who brought back the machines and cannons of foreigners, and it was also he who brought the first fleet to this country. Up to now, those Beiyang soldiers are still the backbone of this country!"

"We have Zhang Zhidong! He established Hanyang, which gave us the first time to have a real industry. It was also that he established a new school, so that more students could enter the school, and he was the first official to shout for the descendants of China who were deeply suffering and were enslaved and bullied by foreigners in the sea!"

"There are many such people. Even if they have to wear a braid, they are still using their own strength to influence the country. Although they have not succeeded and did not let China rise again, the Chinese heart in their hearts has never stopped beating. Move!"

"I want to thank them, because it is their efforts that have made this nation deeply destroyed by the Manchu people not completely sink!"

In the headquarters of the Northwest Army, Sun Jiugong and all the officers stood upright and listened to the voice of the staff. In the background of the sound, the cavalry braved the wind and snow, pierced the enemy's chest with a snowy sabre, and cut off their heads. Behind them, there were countless army soldiers under the guidance of the horns ringing through the world. Stepping on the wind and snow, recovering one town after another.

The staff officer said loudly, "Today, Southeast finally went home!"

"But we still can't be tired, because our soldiers are still attacking the enemy in the wind and snow, because our warships are still patrolling every sea territory, and because we have not yet completed the dream of Chinese rejuvenation!"

"Russia is staring at the north, and they have begun to recruit hundreds of thousands of troops. The British fleet left temporarily, but they still stuck in the Southern Ocean and choked our throats when we went out!"

"The means of cultivation and slavery in the Qing Dynasty made us do nothing in the tide of the industrial revolution, and made us miss the best opportunity for the rejuvenation of China."

"So, I hope that everyone in this land will forget the past, forget the estrangement between the nations, and return to the Chinese family with pride! Let's make a new China with a hundred times the effort and our hands!"

"At this moment, I have a lot to say and a lot to write, but I look out of the window at the towering mountains, but I only think of six words. I just want to tell the world."

"We, stand up!"
