"The expansion of the Han governor's power was an irreversible major trend in the late Qing Dynasty. If the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had any positive historical significance, I am afraid... helping the Han people regain military power, this is the greatest historical achievement of the Heavenly Kingdom movement!"

"It's a pity that I got it after so much blood was shed!"

Zhiyuan split the waves of the Indian Ocean and rode the wind and waves forward. Behind him was a series of French prisoner warships, transportation supply ships, and troop transport ships... The entire fleet covered the sea with more than fifty ships.

All the caravans retreated along the way, and the British navy waited and watched from afar and saluted the head of state from time to time. Asia's most powerful fleet was returning quickly.

When the ship arrived in Sri Lanka, it was finally received from the domestic telegram. The spies from the overseas team of the CIA sent more than 100,000 words of detailed military information on the ship that supplied food and fresh water to the Zhiyuan.

Here is a handwritten letter from Zeng Guofan to Xiao Letian, but it has been transcoded three times, and it took twenty minutes just to translate it into the original text for the head of state.

Zeng Guofan explained the situation in Sijiu City clearly and clearly, and the old coach also gave Xiao Letian a briefing in the letter, saying that his deadline had come, and hoped that Xiao Letian would return to China as soon as possible.

The current situation in Sijiu City is very subtle. The Grand Marshal can still suppress it while alive. If the Grand Marshal dies and Xiao Letian has not yet come up, then the conservatives within the Manchus will definitely carry out large-scale power grabs.

"Go back quickly, return quickly! Once the balance between the government is broken, there will be something unbearable!"

Don’t Xiao Letian want to return home soon? But the storm in the Indian Ocean is not a joke. The entire fleet is also part of the French ironclad ships that can resist the typhoon, and the remaining ships cannot accelerate.

The fleet encountered bad weather when it arrived in Sri Lanka, and it wasted a week here. Thanks to this week, Xiao Letian and others calmed down and began to sort out the domestic situation.

"The balance of the Sijiu City is now entirely supported by Marshal Zeng. When the Marshal takes office as the governor of Zhili, he leads troops. This is a big taboo for the Manchus!"

"But there is no way. The Han governor's power has expanded and has gradually become warlords! The general led thousands of cavalry into Baoding Prefecture and threatened the capital from afar, and he could also suppress the stubborn Eight Banners!"

"How do you think Fuqing's telegraph career can be so smooth? To be honest, there have been many plans within Manren to kill Fuqing, and those conservative forces have long been disgusted with the Third Master!"

"Fortunately, the commander-in-chief's thousands of cavalry were in Baoding Prefecture, and they were pressing against their backs like a thorn. The ghosts and monsters inside the Eight Banners did not move any abnormally!"

Xiao Letian frowned and discussed military affairs with everyone in the cabin. Sri Lanka was outside. The Governor had sent invitations three times, but Xiao Letian refused the invitation to the banquet because the storm was too big.

The heavy rain poured down, the strong wind swayed the warships, and the lights of thousands of homes in Sri Lanka were looming!

"There is no time to eat, drink and have fun... Didn't the British send a batch of high-quality gem gifts? I picked a few Renaissance oil paintings from our warehouse as a gift!"

"Tell the British, I am so tired that I am not feeling well, so I won't attend the banquet... As soon as the storm stops, we will return home immediately!"

Looking at the Qing emperor's map hanging in the cabin, Xiao Letian was thinking as if he was talking to himself, "No need to say the power of foreigners, no one can move at the moment... We can't do it, not even let us do it. We still have to guarantee their interests in China!"

"The mankind is no longer a monolithic part. The conservatives and the reformists, the royalists and the Eight Banners Party... Even if it is the capital, the Xishan Camp of the Japanese Sixth is already the strongest faction!"

"Then there are more than 20,000 soldiers from the Nine Gate Admiral Yihuan... The rest are all waste, all waste, such as the Tiger Gun Camp, the Leopard Cavalry Camp, the Shanpu Camp... They are all corrupted waste snacks!"

"But these wastes under Yihuan's control have a high status... they are all old families in the Eight Banners, and their network of relationships is too close. This is also a huge force that Yi can rely on!"

"Zaichun only has 30,000 soldiers in Fujian, only 30,000... Even if he drives to the capital, he may not be able to defeat the Xishan Camp!"

At this time, Xiang Ying asked in surprise, "Didn't Emperor Tongzhi's new imperial army help us train? Are you still afraid of the Xishan camp of the Japanese Sixth? The master is to strengthen others' ambitions and destroy his own majesty!"

"Although I can't stand the vast army, we trained Ma Ming and the others, and are better than those cowards!"

"No!" Director Wang shook his head. "Gui Zi Liu played a text game. He claimed to the public that Xishan Camp only had 30,000 soldiers, but it was not...Gui Zi Liu also trained 30,000 auxiliary soldiers and civilians, but in fact his strength was 60,000!"

"Even if everyone in the Eight Banners is a waste, it must not include the Japanese Six... This guy is very smart and still has a good way of training. He hired military instructors from Britain, Tsarist Russia, the United States and France!"

"But he doesn't completely trust any of them. If I'm not mistaken... The Japanese Six also made detailed work in the New Imperial Army, because his troops also borrowed many of our training modes!"

"We are not afraid of such an enemy, but can Zai Chun deal with it? It's hard to say..." Xiao Letian was worried.

"The pattern of two tigers fighting together!" Sima Yun said, "Although Emperor Tongzhi has his own direct legion outside the pass, the journey is too far, and the distance is far away and it cannot quench his near thirst!"

"So the coach moved. He had to go on stage and use his own power to create a three-legged battle!"

"Only triangles are the most stable. The coach knew that he could protect his own... but he had no choice! He had to make this stable game!"

"So I judge that the general will definitely mobilize troops at this moment!"

After listening to his subordinates' analysis, Xiao Letian's brows shrank even tighter, "We must speed up the progress. Once General Zeng directly increases his troops, he will touch the last reverse scales!"

"The Japanese Six will definitely fight back bloodily! Call the country back and the Northern Special Zone will add 3,000 troops! At the same time, order Sister Wu to accompany Longma Jun to meet Zeng Shuai..."

"I allow him to use the left-behind foreign legion at his discretion! Before I return to China, I must protect the lives of Dashen and Master Qing San!"

Xiao Letian pushed open the porthole and looked at the thunder and lightning in the distant sky. The cold wind mixed with the rain from the Indian Ocean rushed in. He sighed in his heart, "Master! I know what you think. You are paving the way for me! You are paving the way for the Han people all over the world!"

"I know you have recognized my fortress plan, you know it is feasible... You understand that my education Zaichun is the right plan to dig up the corners of the wall!"

"Yes! It is not difficult for us Han people to restore the old mountains and rivers, but it is very difficult to seize all the territory of the Qing Dynasty intact!"

"What is my fortress? That is the dragon lock nails nailed to the Qing Dynasty! Paved it slowly and connected it to a grid by railway..."

"The place where the fortress is the eternal and unchanging country of the Han family!"

"You know, you are not those angry young people with fanatical minds. You know that you have to eat one bite at a time, and the road has to be taken step by step!"

"So you are helping me plug the loopholes! Zai Chun must ascend the throne as soon as possible and take power immediately, otherwise those treaties will not be implemented!"

"Master, take care of yourself, I'm back now... I can't always bother you if I should carry it!"
