"What's the use of being first in the military and first in the territory? That illusory halo is just throwing away the national destiny of our nation for thousands of years in the future, and just enjoying it in a short period of time!"
"Europeans call Mongolia the whip of God. I still agree with this statement! To be honest, if the Mongolians had not been severely beaten by the whip of God, Europeans would not have accelerated the research and use of firearms!"
"The age of chivalry in Europe, in a sense, ended the moment they were defeated by the Mongols!"
"The Meng Yuan is nothing more than a whip, forcing both East and West to carry out in-depth civilizational reform and evolution. It feels a bit like forcing humans to accelerate their climb up the technological tree!"
"This may be a historical mission given to Meng Yuan by God! They completed it very well, but other missions will be ruined!"
"The Yuan Dynasty only lasted for ninety-eight years. Such a short period of time shows that there were problems with their rule! Economics, technology, politics... and other necessary basics for a prosperous and powerful country, they have not done well!"
"It lives up to its reputation! As an empire with the largest territory in the world, it doesn't know how to firmly grasp the primary productive force? What are you waiting for if you don't fail?"
"The Mongolian grasslands are like this... I have already seen their future, whether this grassland plateau will be integrated into my country in the future, or part of it will split off!"
"They will always be our economic puppets and vassals, and there is absolutely no possibility of a comeback!"
"I, Xiao Letian, have always opened my mouth. These words are a prophecy and an iron rule!"
Yi Xin's face became paler and paler. What Xiao Letian said was actually a nightmare for all foreign races after they settled in the Central Plains!
These foreign races succeeded by luck, but they always understood that the civilization led by the Han family was too tenacious, and the prosperous times they had in history were too glorious!
These are experiences and the confidence of a nation. They have none of these! The subconscious inferiority complex has never gone away!
But today, Xiao Letian simply made it clear. With the eloquence of the head of state, no matter how profound the truth is, he can explain it in a simple and profound way. Even a child can understand it to the same extent!
What's more, Yi Xin is a smart person, how can he not understand this truth!
"You... how arrogant you are... aren't you afraid that I will tell these words to the British? How can the British allow you to challenge their status?"
Well, this Yi Xin simply couldn't refute and actually brought up the British to suppress Xiao Letian!
"Hahaha... Prince Gong, you have the time to think about how to save your life after dawn! I, Xiao Letian, can keep you safe tonight, how can I keep you safe for the rest of your life?"
"As for the British? Haha... I know this country a hundred times better than you do, so you don't have to worry about me!"
"Finally, I would like to send a message to the prince... Pattern! If you want to do a big business, you must have an equal pattern and magnanimity! You are just pretending to be a small family in the Eight Banners. Do you still want to be successful? "
After leaving these words, Xiao Letian walked back to the inner house in a big way. His wife and concubines didn't rest, so they stayed up all night to comfort him!
Yi Xin stood in the doorway in a daze, and the people who kept coming and going were as if he didn't exist!
Later, the Chinese Embassy conducted statistics and found that the Peace Hotel resettled more than 48,000 refugees that night, and distributed relief materials such as medicines and food worth fifty-seven thousand taels of silver!
To the Chinese, this is just a small amount of money, but to the entire capital, this move by the Chinese is really thought-provoking!
Many Manchu officials were very panicked. They all discussed, "Xiao Letian made a bad start. Can a foreign power just send troops to intervene just because another country has a civil war?"
"In the territory of the Qing Dynasty, land was forcibly expropriated, and it was called a Peace Hotel... Isn't this a provocation to the power of the imperial court?"
"Without the permission of the Qing Dynasty, you Chinese people can expropriate land at will and then provide relief to the people of the Qing Dynasty? Isn't this robbing people's hearts?"
"I've started this once, but I'm afraid there will be no end to it in the future!"
But it was a discussion, but no one dared to actually raise this topic in court. It was too sensitive!
The Chinese operation to rescue the refugees marked the end of the night of killing. This night's attempted coup finally came to an end!
At five o'clock in the morning, Emperor Tongzhi on Jingshan Mountain received victory telegrams from everywhere. The rebellion of the factory slaves in the north had been put down, and the kidnappers and horses went on a killing spree. There was no more rebels who dared to challenge the imperial power in the northern suburbs of the capital!
Immediately afterwards, both the British Embassy and the Chinese Embassy sent news that Prince Qing Yikuang and Prince Gong Yixin took refuge in the two embassies!
According to Prince Qing's account, Prince Chun is currently hiding in an outer house around Yonghe Temple and has not escaped from the city. Moreover, Prince Chun will go to court during the day when the court meeting is held!
"Your Majesty is so happy! The three princes have not left the capital, the Xishan camp is safe, the Hunan army is safe after retreating to Zhuozhou, and there is no movement from the foreign troops in Dongjiaominxiang..."
"The Chinese troops are rescuing people and are not participating in the war. They are currently concentrated in the Peace Hotel..."
"Your Majesty! All the troops in the entire capital are safe. Your Majesty's country is forever solid!"
Da Sixi and others knelt on the wet stone floor and kowtowed to the little emperor. At this time, at five o'clock in the morning, a touch of red clouds appeared in the east!
Zai Chun stood in the pavilion, and the bonfire on the ground was almost burning. He had mixed feelings in his heart, "I...Is this a win? Is this a complete victory?"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! The entire capital's army is under the control of Lord Long Live. Of course, it's a great victory!"
Suddenly a familiar buzzing sound came from the southwest, and the morning light reflected on the side of the airship. The airship that had just dropped roses yesterday began to approach Jingshan!
Zai Chun raised his head and smiled, "I thought that this night was so dangerous that I had to take refuge on an airship! But it didn't work..."
This airship has been prepared for a long time. When the chaos broke out, it took off from the base inside You'anmen in Nancheng, and has been monitoring the situation in the capital in the dark!
This is Zai Chun's last insurance. If Jingshan is besieged by the enemy, he will board the airship here and continue to direct the battle!
Fortunately, it was of no use. Zai Chun ordered, "Let the airship land close to the city. I want to go out of the city for inspection! According to my decree, a court meeting will be held in front of the Taihe Hall at 6:30 in the morning!"
“It’s time to make decisions on many things!”
The airship slowly pressed down, and the rope ladder approached Emperor Tongzhi little by little. Two masters of the Forbidden City protection protected the emperor and boarded the airship deck!
"Hang my bright yellow dragon flag and tell the people below that I am on the airship..."
A bright yellow dragon flag was inserted diagonally at the head of the airship. The huge airship was pressed at a height of thirteen or four meters above the ground, flying slowly towards the north!
The King of Yu was leading his troops all over the city to quell the chaos. When they saw the emperor's airship, King Yu dismounted and knelt on the ground, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! The Capital Police Headquarters is quelling the chaos!"
"Kowtow to Long Live!"
Da Sixi excitedly leaned on the railing and shouted, "Oh...Long live Lord, look, this Prince Yu is really capable, Long live Lord knows people with his sharp eyes!"
"Just in the middle of the night, King Yu recruited more than two thousand men to the police station. They were all densely packed with people..."
Zai Chun took a look and nodded, "Continue heading north!"
