Chapter 243 There is no way

Zhang Peilun shook his head and sighed, "The imperial court did not know about the dangerous situation in Shandong!" Zhang Peilun took a look at the imperial uncle and said, "I'm a scholar with an open mouth. Don't blame that uncle. The princes and ministers of the court have doubts about Zhang Jun and are also suspicious of the Beiyang sailors!"

Manchu's prevention of the Han people is the basic national situation of the Qing Dynasty.

Nahawu scolded, "Lao Zhang, you don't have to cover up for those turtle grandchildren. I have long known that those bastards are not good and afraid of having the ability. They can't wait for Zhang Jun and Beiyang sailors to be eliminated by the Japanese! Damn, my Ha Wu is not as chicken-bellied as them!"

"That uncle is indeed a hero!" Zhang Peilun praised: "The emperor is determined to let Zhang Jun return to China, but the Empress Dowager Buddha will definitely not agree!" She is not only afraid that you Zhang Jun will cut your braids and have anti-bones, but she is also afraid that you will stand on the side of the emperor and embarrass her! Zhou Zongbing, I have to make it clear that you and Zhang Jun have been involved in the battle between the Empress Dowager and the emperor!"

Zhou Charter's heart suddenly became enlightened. He finally understood why the court had a superficial favor with Zhang Jun, and it was an official and a knighthood, but secretly, it was a constraint on Zhang Jun.

The grace of performance comes from the emperor, while the restraints in the secret are from the Empress Dowager!

Zhang Peilun continued: "In the Shandong crisis, although the existing strength of the Beiyang Marine Division can still fight at sea with the Japanese joint fleet, the land defense of the Qing army is extremely empty. The Japanese army will not fight with our Beiyang Marine Division at sea. They will definitely launch a land war from behind Weihai Weiwei, so that the Beiyang Marine Division Trapped to death in Weihaiwei!"

"Their most likely landing point is Rongcheng Bay!" Zhou Charter said, "As long as our army strengthens the defense of Rongcheng Bay, the situation in Shandong does not seem to be out of control!"

Zhang Peilun sneered: "Zhou Zongbing has also been fighting for a long time. Do you really believe that the Qing army can defend Rongcheng Bay?"

Zhou Charter was silent. At the beginning, in the sand table operation of Tianjin Wubei School, as the commander of the Japanese army, he won a complete victory in the surprise attack on Rongcheng Bay. That sand table operation won by surprise. This seems to show that as long as the Qing army grasped the intention of the Japanese army first, the surprise attack could not be completed.

However, after more than half a year of war, Zhou Charter has seen through the army of the Qing Dynasty!

Even if the Qing army masters the Japanese army's action plan, they still can't win!

The reason is very simple. The Qing army has long lost morale! As soon as the Japanese cannon sounds, the Qing army will lose their weapons and flee!

In Liaodong, Song Qing led 100,000 troops and could not gnaw on the second Japanese army with only 20,000 people, which is a clear proof!

Luo Mingfang said angrily, "Mr. Zhang, according to Li Zhongtang, let Zhang Jun give up North Korea and return to Liaodong without any transfer order! In doing so, Zhang Jun not only violated the taboo of the Empress Dowager, but also, once the division is unfavorable, he will put Zhang Jun in advance and retreat! I, Zhang Jun, won the battle! The court will not spare us! At that time, Li Zhongtang came to deny it and insisted that it was Zhang Jun who acted without authorization, and my Zhang Jun was finished! You are going to use Zhang Jun as a scapegoat for the Beiyang Marine, which is too sinister!"

"Deputy Master Luo is right!" Zhang Peilun bowed his head and sighed, "Li Zhongtang also thinks that this is very unfair to Zhang Jun! Therefore, Li Zhongtang asked me to tell Zhou Zongbing that after the incident, Li Zhongtang, as the minister of Beiyang and all the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Marine Division, tried to ensure that Zhang Jun was fine.

"Why does he guarantee!" Na Hawu shouted, "Does he dare to challenge the old Buddha?"

Zhang Peilun suddenly lowered his voice: "Guys, Zhang Jun is the most effective army in the Qing Dynasty, and the Beiyang Marine Division is the most advanced navy in the Qing Dynasty. If Zhang Jun occupies Liaodong and the Beiyang Marine Division defends Shandong, the two sides are in the same air, and Li Zhongtang speaks in the court. You can think about what the court will happen to the court. What do you mean?

Luo Mingfang was shocked and said, "The vassal town was divided!"

Zhang Peilun said slowly, "Isn't Zhang Jun in North Korea divided by vassal towns?"

In the hall, he suddenly fell into a dead silence.

For a long time, Zhang Peilun said in a low voice, "With all due respect, no matter who wins or loses in this war, the final loser is the court! The general trend of the world will be divided after a long time! The centralization of the imperial court has shown signs of disintegration. Zhang Zhidong is in Hubei and Liu Kunyi is in Fujian. In fact, they have been working separately for a long time! Zhou Zongbing followed the trend, which is the hero of the times! Against the trend, I'm afraid it will be a sinner for thousands of years!"

Zhou Charter finally understood that Zhang Peilun was persuading him to become king in Liaodong!

The Russian Barauve also persuaded him to do so.

In those years, Wang Yuyun also persuaded Zeng Guofan to point tea with his finger and wrote a series of "arrogance" in several cases! Now Zhang Peilun's old trick is repeated!

"However, Zhang Jun did not capture the capital of Liaodong!" Zhou Charter said, "Zhang Jun has only 5,000 people, and there is a serious lack of weapons and equipment! Does Mr. Zhang really think that with the existing strength of Zhang Jun, he can defeat the Second Japanese Army armed to the teeth? Mr. Zhang should know that the Japanese Second Army in Liaodong also includes the Third Division that originally belonged to the First Army! Its strength is at least 25,000.

"Hasn't Mr. Zhou met Palau?" Zhang Peilun smiled mysteriously.

Zhou Charter sneered: "It seems that all this is in the planning of Li Zhongtang!" Zhou Charter remembered that power of attorney.

"The Russians are willing to provide all the weapons and equipment needed by Zhang Jun." Zhang Peilun said, "As for the soldiers, I believe that with the prestige of General Zhou, as long as you shake your arms, the people of North Korea and Liaodong will naturally actively participate in your army! Isn't there another Hannagan in your army? He will turn those farmers into soldiers!"

"Mr. Zhang, you should have already deal with the Russians. You should not know that their price is too high!"

"No matter how high their price is, do any Japanese want it?" Zhang Peilun sneered: "The Japanese want to include Shandong, Liaodong and Taiwan in their territory! At least the Russians did not claim territorial sovereignty against the Qing Dynasty. What they wanted was just Lushun Port.

"And the whole Northeast!" Zhou Charter said.

"That's just a railway."

Zhou Charter sneered: "Mr. Zhang, I absolutely don't believe that you will not understand the symbolic meaning of sovereignty of a railway! They demanded that the local government of the Qing Dynasty should not exercise jurisdiction within three kilometers along the railway! Mr. Zhang, isn't this jurisdiction sovereign?

Zhang Peilun shook his head: "Zhou Zongbing is right! However, under the efforts of Li Zhongtang, the Russians are under pressure from Britain, France and Germany that they will not station troops in the northeast. This jurisdiction can only be given to the Chinese! Or, it's you and Zhang Jun!"

Zhou Charter laughed: "Mr. Zhang, you and Li Zhongtang really plan to make me Shi Jingxuan! I will be scolded to death by the people!"

"It's not the hero's job to taste the courage, endure humiliation and bear the burden!"

"In the eyes of the world, is Shi Jingzhen a hero?" Zhou Charter said coldly, "He is a traitor!"

Zhang Peilun is silent.

In fact, Zhang Peilun can't even convince himself of his mission.

In order to save the Beiyang Marine Division, Zhang Jun was attached to the Russians, which is equivalent to leading the wolf into the house! The Russians have always been the strong enemy of the northern Qing Dynasty. For 300 years, they have been trying to encroach on the land of the Qing Dynasty all the time!

However, the Beiyang Marine is the life of Li Hongzhang. Roots!

The Beiyang Marine is over, and Li Hongzhang is over!

What's sadder is that Beiyang Mariner is not just Li Hongzhang's life. Root, it is also the life of the Qing Dynasty. Roots!

It is the only fig leaf that can whitewash its decay in the Qing Dynasty! If the Beiyang navy is finished, the weakness of the Qing Dynasty will be unreservedly displayed in front of the great powers. At that time, not only the Japanese and Russians, but also all the Western powers will open their teeth and claws to the Qing Dynasty, and they will even dismember the Qing Dynasty!

Either defeated by the Japanese, defeated by the Russians, or dismembered by the great powers!

The Qing Dynasty has reached a desperate situation!

Yao Xi walked into the hall, came to Zhou Charter, and whispered a few words.

Zhou Charter stood up and arched his hand to Zhang Peilun: "I'm sorry, Han Lingzhun, the governor of Anzhou, came and said that there was an emergency military affairs. Zhou was going to deal with it. Mr. Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment, please ask Deputy Division Director Luo and Uncle Huang to talk with Mr. Zhang. Zhou will come as soon as he goes."

Zhang Peilun arched his hand: "Zhou Zongbing is busy first and wait here."

Zhou Charter and Yao Xi went out of the living room.

Luo Mingfang saw Zhou Charter go out and turned to Zhang Peilun and said, "Mr. Zhang's proposal is to make Zhang Jun a Russian puppet! This is to put General Zhou and all the soldiers of Zhangjun in a place of disloyalty and unfilial piety! Mr. Zhang, you should understand that once the Russians control the northeast, the Qing Dynasty will die!"

Zhang Peilun pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Even if the country is subjugated, it can't be killed by the Japanese!" This is his last reason.

There is a dead silence in the hall.

Even the Hawu, who has always been shouting, has calmed down.

They all realized that this war had brought the Qing Dynasty to the brink of extinction.

The Empress Dowager and Emperor of the Qing Dynasty did not seem to be alert to this. Until now, the most dangerous enemies in their minds are not Russians, Japanese, or even external forces, but Zhou Charter and Li Hongzhang, these Han people with guns!

The central idea of the imperial court is still trying to cut off the armed forces of the Han people! Even with the help of external forces.

Half an hour later, Zhou Charter returned to the living room.

Zhang Peilun greeted him impatiently: "Zhou General Bing, please send troops to Liaodong immediately..."

Zhou Charter shook his head: "The military situation in Shandong is urgent, and Zhou dares not leave Mr. Zhang more. Mr. Zhang, please leave immediately and rush back to Tianjin overnight to tell Li Zhongtang that Zhang Jun can't send troops to Liaodong!"
