The cute president laughed and said, "Master Zhongtang, you are just making a joke. I mean, there may be robbers. Are you trying to say that I am a robber?"

The cute CEO said and smiled, and naturally he had a sense of majesty, majesty, and his appearance and age. With the current power of the cute CEO, he naturally had no anger and was powerful!

Li Hongzhang looked at Zeng Jize and then looked at Xuan Yuemeng, "Is there no room for negotiation?"

Zeng Jize sighed and said, "It seems that Lord Zhongtang, I can't go back to see the Holy Mother Empress Dowager with you. With her character, I must think that my negotiations are not good, and even a partnership with Yuemeng. It's over, and it's useless to say more. However, Lord Zhongtang told Yuemeng's meaning, I think the two Empress Dowagers and the Emperor will be considerate."

Li Hongzhang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Give it back to the emperor? I've said it all! "

The cute CEO was shocked. Although he knew very little about history, he still knew that Emperor Tongzhi died at this time. It seems that history does have his own deterrence! Emperor Tongzhi, who went to the fireworks place with Zaicheng, was infected with a dirty disease.

"Then let's go back to the Zhongtang. I still say the same thing. In China, there will always be a place for the Zhongtang Master! In the Qing Dynasty, it is the Zhongtang. If you are willing to come to me, it is the Zhongtang! Zhongtang is the person I value the most in the Qing Dynasty!" The cute CEO said sincerely.

Not to mention whether the system is not a system, if Li Hongzhang was willing to be an advisor, it would be better than anything else, because Li Hongzhang understood the country, the hearts of the people, and the West was also very familiar with the United States. If he changed to a government, with Li Hongzhang's mind, he would not be able to turn it around!

Li Hongzhang nodded with a wry smile and said, "Don't say anything more Yuemeng, I appreciate your kindness! Ji Ze, since you have made a choice, then take care of yourself."

Zeng Jize knew that Mingren would not say secret words, and Li Hongzhang had seen through his thoughts of throwing into Xuan Yuemeng, so he had to hold his fists and say, "I'm sorry, Li Zhongtang."

Li Hongzhang said seriously: "If I don't say these sour words, I can have the present and today. It's all up to Lingzun, and I am also my mentor. The Old Zhongtang. It's a pity that Li Hongzhang is incompetent and cannot support the Qing Dynasty like the Old Zhongtang!"

Cute CEO Khan, your Qing Dynasty is already full of holes, how can you help? If I hadn’t seized power now, in the future, your Qing court would have a paper fleet, and then give it all to the Japanese, then give it all to the sea, and then compensate 200 million taels of silver to help Japan become an Asian power, and the world’s power?

However, the cute president still admired the loyalty and patriotic plots of these sour literati. Without these ideas, China's huge country could not prosper and unify for generations. However, this is the end of the world! It should be said that if we look for the roots and chase the roots, we should blame the Ming Dynasty for Lao Zhu. It was not a fool Zhu Yuanzhang, who raised a large group of Ming princes like a pig, and raised the Ming Dynasty. Where could there be Jiannu and the Qing Dynasty? Without the Qing Dynasty entering the pass, the industrial initialization of the Ming Dynasty would be re-expanded. It has been more than 200 years since the fall of Emperor Chongzhen to the present, and China should have entered the capitalist economy long ago!

The country should have become a capitalist country long ago. It should not be the fullest person who eats raw meat and drinks blood, and it will be forced to return to the era of slavery!

The day after Li Hongzhang returned to Wei County, the cute president set off for Beijing, and Xuan's mother and Xu Xiangzhi remained in Tianjin.

The President Guard and the President's Secretariat were accompanied by the First Brigade of the First Field Division of the Chinese Army, and the Hongpu Military Academy Teaching Brigade was transferred to accompany him. The other three battalions of the 111th Regiment were still stationed in Tianjin.

The Beijing urban defense system consists of ancillary buildings such as city walls, arrow towers, corner towers, enemy platforms, moats and garrison troops.

When we arrived at the tall and magnificent Yongding Sect, the cute president was fascinated by the beauty of the Yongding Sect.

The cute CEO has been to Beijing, but in the past, he didn't know much about military affairs and didn't pay much attention to it. He just took a quick look. Now, the cute CEO has realized the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients.

Yongding Gate is the main gate of the outer city wall of Beijing in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is located on the central axis of Beijing, between Zuo'anmen and You'anmen. It is the largest gate of Beijing's outer city gate and is also the main road from the south to enter and exit the capital.

Yongding Gate was built in the 32nd year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, which means "everyday stability". The city tower is like an inner city, with a double-eaved hip-mounted three-drop water pavilion building, gray tile green glazed tiles and cut edges, with a width of five rooms, with a width of 24 meters; three rooms, with a depth of 10.5 meters; the building and platform are 26 meters high.

During the Qing Dynasty, the main force of the Beijing garrison was the Xiaoqi Camp (Qianzhang), and the district was stationed in the inner city of Beijing (Mancheng). The Yellow Banner was inside Andingmen, the Zhenghuang Banner was inside Deshengmen, the Zhengbai Banner was inside Dongzhimen, the Inlaid White Banner was inside Chaoyangmen, the Zhenghong Banner was inside Xizhimen, the Inlaid Red Banner was inside Fuchengmen, the Zhenglan Banner was inside Chongwenmen, and the Inlaid Blue Banner was inside Xuanwumen.

Each banner has official hall, barracks and pile-up rooms (posts).

In addition to the Xiaoqi Camp, the Beijing City Defense Garage also includes the Forward Battalion, Guardian Battalion, Infantry Patrol Battalion, Jianrui Battalion, Firearm Battalion, Shenji Battalion (established in the 11th year of Xianfeng), and Tiger Gun Battalion. In addition, since the Yongzheng Dynasty, the Eight Banners Guardian Battalion of the Yuanmingyuan was established in the area from the Yuanmingyuan to Xiangshan to protect the Imperial Garden.

Among the nine gates in the inner city, the eight gates except Zhengyang Gate are also defended by the Eight Banners soldiers according to this distribution, and are divided by Manchuria, Mongolian and Han soldiers.

However, the city gate leader (the officer responsible for the city gate guarding) is the officer of other banners: the Anding Gate is Zhenglan, the Desheng Gate is inlaid blue, the East Zhi Gate is inlaid white, the West Zhi Gate is inlaid red, the Chaoyang Gate is Zhenglan, the Fucheng Gate is Zhenglan, the Chongwen Gate is inlaid yellow, and the Xuanwu Gate is the Zhenghuang Banner.

Zhengyang Gate is rotated by the Eight Banners.

Among the seven gates of the outer city, the Han army in the Yellow Banner is at the East Bianmen, the Han army in the Zhenghuang Banner is at the West Bianmen, the Han army in the Zhengbai Banner is at the Guangqumen, the Han army in the Zhenghong Banner is at the Guang'anmen, the Han army in the Zhengluanmen, the Han army in the Yinglan, the Han army in the Yinglan, the Han army in the Yinglan, the Han army in the Zhenglan Banner is at the Yongdingmen.

During the Qing Dynasty, the Eight Banners defenders of the Knight Camp generally did not live on the city wall, but lived inside and outside the city gate for defense.

Only the emperor went out of the palace to go to the Old Summer Palace, Temple of Heaven and other places to climb the city guards.

However, the soldiers stationed in the city guards at Xuanwu Gate fired the mail cannons (noon cannons) every day at noon.

During the Second Opium War, due to the strict defense of Beijing, the British and French coalition forces who had arrived at the front line of Deshengmen and Andingmen in Beijing gave up their attempt to attack Beijing and instead attacked the Old Summer Palace and Haidian.

During the Eight-Nation Alliance's battle to attack Beijing, Beijing's cities also showed a strong defensive effect.

The Qing army defended the city with the advantage of the tall and wide walls of the city (inner city), and shot at the siege army from a high place on the wall.

The Russian and Japanese troops tried to blow up the city gates of Dongzhimen and Chaoyangmen with fire cotton, but the soldiers who tried to ignite the fuse were shot dead by the defenders on the wall many times.

In addition, the Wengcheng, enemy platform and corner tower in Beijing also assisted the Qing army in this battle to build many powerful firepower positions. For example, on the night of August 13, although the Russian army broke through the Dongbianmen Arrow Tower gate, they were still attacked by Qing army firepower in the Wengcheng and could not advance. It was not until the reinforcements arrived on the morning of the 14th that they captured the Dongbianmen City Tower.

Even after the coalition forces broke through the outer and inner cities, the walls and gates of the imperial city still played a certain defensive role.

In the early morning of August 15, the US military bombarded the ** city gate with artillery, but did not blow it open. Finally, it was climbed to the city with a ladder sent by Japanese engineers, and only then occupied it.

In addition, in the "Guanganmen Incident" on July 25, 1937, a battalion (battalion) of the Japanese army stationed in Fengtai entered Beiping City on the grounds of "protecting overseas Chinese" and "protecting the embassy area of ​​Dongjiaominxiang". When its convoy entered Guang'anmen, more than 20 Chinese teams defending the city gate used machine guns to snipe them condescendingly, forcing the Japanese army to give up their attempt to enter Beiping, proving that the Beijing city still has important defensive significance in modern warfare.

When the 112th Regiment of the 1st Brigade of the First Field Division of the Chinese Army came, the Qing army fled, otherwise it would not have been taken down so easily.

Such a solid city, China's capital, was taken down by the cute president with almost no effort. This was something that the cute president did not imagine when he first entered the pass.
Chapter completed!
