The Japanese army once again entered Liaodong, and the Huai army was still on the verge of collapse, and it continued to rout towards the mountains and seas.
Chu army and Xiang army entered the mountains and seas, and they were better in spirit and will than Huai army with big weapons and equipment. The old Xiang army won’t escape easily with machine guns and cannons. He has been drinking northwest wind for more than ten years, always guarding against Russian troops, and Chu army won’t let the leaders go first.
As a result, the front-line troops chased the mountains and seas and bumped into Zhu Yuanzhang to build a city wall, which could stop the March. The good day of attacking the city and plundering the land without one shot was over.
The Qing army won its first victory in the war, and the civil servants whitewashed the victory of mountains and seas.
At this time, instead, keep silent before underestimating your enemy. Qi Gui actually said that he would take the initiative to attack the mountains and seas and recover the ancestral land of Manchuria.
They saw that Xiang and Chu easily beat back the Japanese army, but before that, Li Hongzhang was too timid. On second thought, isn’t it the enemy? What’s the terrible contempt for the Japanese mentality? So the flags are well-documented
The equipment level of the new army with 200,000 banners is much better than that of the Xiang and Chu armies, and Li Hongzhang’s elite Huai army can compete with them to meet the Japanese flank from Zhangjiakou.
Emperor Guangxu was very happy to see this momentum, but he felt that his military ability was overwhelming and he approved the flag-fighting plan with a stroke of a pen. At one point, he wanted to personally expedition to gain himself enough prestige, but he regretted giving up this plan only after Weng Tongshu and other officials admonished him.
200,000-flag new army went to Zhangjiakou by train, but it didn’t talk to the people along the way, but it did harm to a large number of Shanxi merchants in Zhangjiakou. They went to ask for food and money, and women couldn’t satisfy them, so they collaborated with the enemy and blackmailed them.
Making a fortune before the war is what makes a flag brother feel that this trip is promising.
The name of the commander-in-chief of the new army is Fu Zhu Li, but there are too many red belts and yellow belts in it, so he can’t be taunted and can be fooled by these people.
There are trains from Zhangjiakou to Huludao, which were built by the Russians for some unknown purpose. At the same time, the Russians recruited their trains by the flag lords, but at the same time informed the Japanese of their whereabouts. In fact, they did not inform the Japanese spies that they had already mastered their every move.
The Japanese let go of the train flag soldiers and waited until they got married in Jinzhou before suddenly sending troops to surround Jinzhou.
Then, after the wall of Jinzhou was blown down by a light battle, the flag brothers in the encirclement surrendered 200,000 people and surrounded them. Only 100,000 people were Japanese, or 100,000 people were short of food and bombs.
The annihilation of the 200,000-flag new army shocked the Qing court, and they were excited at the first time. The adults strongly demanded that Fu Zhuli, the general of the whole army, be beheaded.
Then Qi Gui and Han Chinese etiquette shirked each other. Qi Gui said that Li Hongzhang sat idly by while the new flag army was besieged in Jinzhou and didn’t go to rescue it, which led to the collapse of 200,000 troops. Li Hongzhang said that he had heard that the new flag army was besieged, but he had already started to rescue it, but he hadn’t come to beat back the frontal Japanese army. Unexpectedly, the new flag army surrendered in less than ten days from their arrival in Jinzhou to the siege, but only five and a half days from the time when they were besieged to the time of surrender, not to mention that even the Japanese army could not catch up with it.
No result of the quarrel is to make people realize the reality that the most pampered and superior flag is the worst, and the second pampered and superior Huai army is the second worst. On the contrary, it is better to suffer from Chu army and inferior equipment in the west.
This made the Qing court decide to change coaches and replace Li Hongzhang, the leader of the main war faction, Weng Tong Su Shuai, and the Xiangchu Legion defended both capital city.
However, at this time, the possession of the sea was no longer hard to shake the mountains and seas, but instead landed in Shandong from the sea and entered Weihai.
Li Bingheng, the governor of Shandong Province, was at odds with Li Hongzhang and sat back and watched the Japanese attack on ahava without rescue, resulting in the fall of Weihai Fort.
Four armored ships, the main force of Beiyang Navy, have been fighting with the Japanese joint fleet in the military port. The Japanese navy finally took these four warships, but as a result, the Qing army sank four warships with its own fort gun.
The Japanese navy has been trying to persuade Admiral Ding Ruchang to surrender. As a result, Ding Ruchang refused to surrender and committed suicide before the collapse of the navy. He was chanting "Even if he sank a Japanese warship" when he died. He regretted that he committed suicide, but he died without washing away his shame. The generals of Beiyang Navy pushed the responsibility for surrender to his head. It was not until more than ten years later that he was rehabilitated.
Japan occupied Weihai, annihilated Beiyang Navy and completely controlled Bohai Sea. Now they can land in a place in Bohai Bay.
Li Hongzhang has left everything to Weng Tongshu to stay at home. At this time, the emperor was in a hurry. Although Weng Tongshu insisted on continuing to fight, what if the Japanese landed in Tianjin? The little emperor repeatedly sent etiquette to invite Li Hongzhang to preside over the peace talks. Li Hongzhang was unable to get sick, but the Japanese army really landed in Tianjin to see the refreshing [vertex network O]

Guangxu can mobilize Weng Tong Su to help defend Tianjin Weng Tong Su, a civilian. What do you know about military reinforcement? It has never been liked by the officers of the Hunan Huai Regiment. As a result, he refused to work hard when he transferred the troops. Weng Tong Su jumped up and cursed, but he found no way to transfer an army to fire the Japanese soldiers without waiting for the enemy to come. It was easier to take Tianjin City than the British and French Coalition forces in those days. @++wwｗ* C
Weng Tongsu arrived in Tongzhou in a few days, and he himself ran back to Beixun City. He said that the king eggs of Xiang Huai Army refused to work hard, and Li Hongzhang ordered the emperor to take Li Hongzhang.
Emperor Guangxu said that there was nothing urgent to talk about taking Li Hongzhang at this time, but he wanted Weng Tongsu to negotiate with Japan, but Weng Tongsu would rather die than surrender, indicating that he would fight to the death with the enemy and refused to bear the stigma to negotiate with Japan.
The Japanese army approached the north step by step, and a group of Manchu princes and ministers were anxious. They took turns to cry in front of the emperor and the empress dowager, but Cixi said that she had returned to the emperor and asked them all to find him.
The emperor had a way to get down on his knees when he was in a hurry. Cixi was reluctant to come out. He immediately sent someone to find Li Hongzhang and told him that now is not the time to be melodramatic. This country is going to be ruined.
At this time, Li Hongzhang did not dare to continue to twist when he saw that the situation was not good, but he knew that there was nothing good to eat when he came out of the mountain. He wrote a letter to commend a person, Liu Kunyi, Governor of Liangjiang.
Cixi Ma adopted this opinion and transferred Liu Kunyi, the governor of Liangjiang, as an imperial envoy to supervise foreign troops and command foreign military orders. Wu Dacheng, the governor of Hunan Province, and Song Qing, the deputy governor of Sichuan Province, except Wu Dalun, who was born as a scholar, Liu Kunyi was born as an official to suppress Taiping rebels. The governor of Liangjiang was once a general of Zeng Guofan, and a few people, such as Ceng Guoquan, were able to do it. Unfortunately, Ceng Guoquan died a few years ago, otherwise he would be the best candidate. Song Qing was born in Huai Army, but he was not mixed with Li Hongzhang. He was mainly in the
With these two veteran veterans who are proficient in the army, the military discipline was quickly reorganized. The Xiang Chu army stopped the Japanese army in Tongzhou, and the two sides showed fierce fighting. Finally, the Bushido Japanese army crushed the brave and brave. Hunan people have already defeated the highly organized modern army by virtue of their tough folk customs, but their performance is much better than that of the Qi and Huai armies. Not only did they not run, but they also played their defensive role. Machine guns and artillery killed the Japanese in large numbers. After two months of calm, the Japanese army lost 30,000 troops, which was more than all the casualties of the Japanese army since the war.
However, this war also caused heavy losses to the Xiang Chu army, which was defeated and plundered everywhere. It also happened that several princes fled from the north to the west and were hijacked by the Xiang army.
At this time, the whole northern area was in panic. Because Tianjin was occupied, there was only one way to escape to the south, that is, the Jinghan Railway, but many people could not squeeze in. Besides, I heard that the Japanese fleet had entered the Yangtze River, and everyone dared not run to Wuhan. Many people chose to take a bus to Henan, but they planned to run to the west. The aristocratic route was to run to Zhangjiakou, and the summer emperor of Chengde was called a patrol.
At this time, you not only want to run by yourself, but also have the queen mother and the emperor encouraging them to run together.
Cixi was a little flustered, too. Where did she think that the enemy could fight so hard that she hit the capital? He thought that the little emperor would have enough fun and know his weight, so she wouldn’t have to toss about it. She should hang the curtain and listen to it, so there would be no noise from the minister. Who thought of playing so big?
Of course Cixi doesn’t want to run. He sent someone to greet Li Hongzhang. It’s time for peace talks.
Li Hongzhang is still not out of the mountain. He advocates moving the capital to fight again and recommends Weng Tongsu to lead the troops.
Isn’t this nonsense? Let the college students lead the troops. In this life, besides writing articles and boasting, how can Cixi know that Li Hongzhang is angry? If Weng Tongsu hadn’t impeached him, he wouldn’t have been stopped. Now he is begging Li Hongzhang to wait for revenge.
Empress dowager cixi also saw that this group of imperial parties was not pleasing to the eye. Ma Zhaoting criticized Weng Tongsu and other officials for blindly fighting the war and making mistakes in the country and the people. At the same time, she took the opportunity to crack down on a large number of imperial parties, including some who didn’t recognize the situation.
After killing Weng Tongsu at once, please ask Li Hongzhang and Cixi to know that there is no other way except to negotiate a road at this time. The flag is unreliable. Even if we recruit 200,000 flag soldiers, what else can we do except to let the Japanese capture them? The temporary recruitment can’t come from the garrisoned flags and green campers scattered around the country, which is even less effective. It can compete with the new flag army.
Peace talks as much as possible
Please ask Li Hongzhang to be reinstated as a mountain official. He is still the Beiyang Minister and the Governor of Zhili. What do you want to reward with an imperial official? I’ve already enjoyed it, so change your clothes.
This time, Li Hongzhang no longer came forward with his horse to negotiate with the Japanese minister.
The Japanese have long wanted to talk about it, and they can’t fight. The national economy is on the verge of collapse, and the people are hungry all day. If they win, they will certainly cheer, but they can’t starve to death if they can’t get results.
I have owed more than one billion debts to Britain, and everything that can be mortgaged has been mortgaged. Taxes, railways and coal mines have all been mortgaged to the counters of British capitalists. Once defeated, it is equivalent to selling Japan to Britain.
Qing dragged on talking about the Qing Dynasty’s Manchu dynasty’s civil and military affairs and continued to be popular and spicy, but the Japanese emperor had to drink gruel to live.
It’s getting worse every day, and they don’t even dare to make a fuss, for fear of making a fuss. These people have run away and have nowhere to talk to.
Japanese newspapers are clamoring for the destruction of the Manchu dynasty and the rule of the Central Plains, but the Japanese government is too white. Who can accept the Japanese rule of the Central Plains and the horror of the South cannot agree?
So they warmly received Li Hongzhang, the main force of the Japanese fleet, and escorted Li Hongzhang to Malaysia to negotiate with Ito Bowen.
It’s time for negotiation to level the gap with Li Hongzhang. Ito Bowen deliberately let Li Hongzhang sit in a low chair and Li Hongzhang didn’t care.
The Japanese demanded that Manchu cede Manchuria, Shandong and Tianjin to Rijiri, and they all wanted to occupy areas close to them. They also wanted money, and they demanded compensation of 2 billion pounds with reference to the American treaty. They said that the United States was a big country, and Qing was also a big country.
In addition, they also want the market to specifically ask Manchu to release ports in Wuhu and Shashi, and ask Manchu to allow Japanese businessmen to set up factories and mines there; Requiring extraterritorial laws requires possession of concessions.
Almost all foreigners have gained special days from Manchu in the past half century, and they need more.
Li Hongzhang was dumbfounded. Shandong, Tianjin and Northeast China were ceded to Japan. When he went back, he had to be killed.
