The three major fleets will rest in Tongzhou, and the Taipei fleet will return to Taipei in five days.
The North Sea Fleet does not need to prepare and will continue to stay in Tongzhou.
The South China Sea Fleet will have to wait half a month and the day after tomorrow to head south to the temporary port in Guangzhou.
After Zhanjiang is repaired, they will move there.
Li Jingxiao also held a meeting with each commander and deputy commander. Later, they would have to lead the troops alone, and some still needed to be explained separately.
Tomorrow Li Jingxiao will leave Tongzhou and return to Henan to continue the defense and wait for the Qing's counterattack.
Today Li Jingxiao asked Xiao Yi to find Deng Shichang.
After Deng Shichang came to Li Jingxiao's temporary office.
Saluted.
Li Jingxiao looked at Deng Shichang, who had already cut off his braids.
"Come and sit down, Captain Deng."
"Thank you, Governor."
"I see that your mental state is very different. You are much more cheerful than before."
Deng Shichang felt a little embarrassed.
"Grand Governor, I know why you are looking for me. I am now one of the captains of the battleships of the Tenglong Empire Navy."
"I was born as a member of the Tenglong Empire Navy, and I died as a ghost of the Tenglong Empire Navy."
"I have made up my mind to follow the Tenglong Navy in this life. As long as the Tenglong Empire does not let down its people, I will never let down the empire."
"Okay, I just like your energy. If one day this empire takes the wrong path, you won't have to take the blame. I won't spare myself."
"My goal is to let our Chinese land regain its glory, and our Chinese territory will stand on top of the world again, and our people will truly become the masters of this land."
Deng Shichang saluted: "The general will definitely live up to his mission!"
Li Jingxiao also returned the favor!
Later, Li Jingxiao told Deng Shichang that the Beiyang Navy would inevitably have to fight the Qing Dynasty later, and he could be allowed to hand over the command to the deputy captain and let him fight on behalf of Deng Shichang.
Deng Shichang didn't expect Li Jingxiao to be so thoughtful and was moved.
Deng Shichang nodded fiercely.
Deng Shichang didn't say anything when it came to fighting foreign devils, and he dared to attack the Qing Dynasty. However, he always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart when attacking the Qing Dynasty.
After Deng Shichang left, Li Jingxiao was still thinking about it.
It is not uncommon for many people in later generations to worship foreign things. These people just lack national self-confidence.
From now on, he will let the people of Tenglong Empire know that Tenglong Empire will not be worse than anyone else.
Tenglong Empire is far ahead in every aspect.
The next day, Li Jingxiao and the guard company left Jiangsu, preparing to return to Henan. They left Anhui and took a look home on the way.
After arriving in Anhui, it was Li Wen who greeted Li Jingxiao.
"The Great Governor!"
"Hahaha, does Li Wen feel any pressure when he becomes governor in his twenties?"
"Grand Governor, isn't this just a rush? Our positions have been growing steadily in the past few years."
"To be honest, I haven't been in each position for long. Fortunately, Zou Junmen teaches me seriously. If I ask him about something I don't understand, he will teach me how to do it."
"The previous governors have laid a solid foundation. I just need to continue to do a good job based on their foundation."
"Yeah, learn more and read more. If you don't understand, just ask. Don't talk about you. I'm not inexperienced in running the Tenglong Empire. I just force myself to make progress little by little."
"You are the people who have been following me for the longest time. While managing this land, you must also take care of yourselves. Are you twenty-six years old?"
"Why aren't you married yet? You should think more about the next generation of our Tenglong Empire."
"Also, look at how thin you have become. I have taught you martial arts since you were young. You haven't moved for a long time. Have you forgotten all the moves?"
"Grand Governor, please stop talking. Since the establishment of our Tenglong Empire, we have not stopped for a moment to fight against the local tyrants, divide the land, and then govern the local areas. We also need to modernize, build roads, railways, and various factories. Understand."
"I don't have time to think about my own affairs."
"Okay, I've wronged you. I've slowed down my pace now, just because I'm afraid of pulling my crotch."
"How about I ask my father to introduce you to a few people who are down-to-earth people who have solved major life issues in advance and have a family first and then a career."
"Grand Governor, do you have a free day? My parents haven't urged me yet, but you are already urging me. How can I, the governor of Anhui, not live without my wife?"
"Hahaha, stop talking. I'm going home. Don't follow me. I'll build Anhui for me. I can't let down the people. Otherwise, don't blame me for not recognizing brotherhood."
Li Wen saluted!
"I will live up to the people and live up to Tenglong!"
Li Jingxiao smiled and patted Li Wen on the shoulder, then asked Xiao Yi to drive home.
After returning home, several younger brothers and sisters had the day off and were all waiting for him at home. The children of his uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, and fifth uncle were all at home.
They all study in their old home in Hefei, Anhui.
Li Jingxiao looked at his nine younger brothers and felt very at ease.
These nine people are about the same age. Li Jingshu is the eldest and the leader among them.
He first saluted his father and aunt, and then followed them into the house.
We had dinner together in the evening and we had just finished half of the meal.
Xiao Yi walked in from outside.
But he hesitated to speak.
Li Jingxiao knew something big was going on when he saw Xiao Yi's expression.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Great Governor, we just received information that Emperor Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty has passed away!"
Upon hearing this, Li Hongzhang's bowl and chopsticks dropped to the ground.
The eyes were red and tears welled up.
The little guys were very excited. The emperor of the Qing Dynasty had nothing to do with them. They were all from the Tenglong Empire.
Li Jingxiao looked at his father.
Li Hongzhang waved to him.
"Xiao Yi gathered the security company and returned to Henan."
"yes."
"Gather and return to Henan."
Li Jingxiao drove back to Henan with his guards overnight.
The Tongzhi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty reached his final stage at the age of only nineteen years old.
Throughout his life, he lost his father at a young age and ascended the throne at the age of six. He always had a very unique view on government affairs, including how to make money and move his mother and queen mother.
He also founded Tongzhi ZTE. In fact, he did nothing and could not do anything. The only decision was to choose the queen, but he lost his life because of this.
He has been fighting for power with his mother all his life.
Fate is so cruel. Cixi arranged for Dr. Li to treat the emperor's illness, and he also treated it according to the condition of Hualiu disease.
However, Emperor Tongzhi's condition deteriorated early and he missed the first more than a month.
Later it was just said that it extended his lifespan.
Prince Gong also brought many doctors, both foreign and domestic, but the foreigners said they wanted to inject some hormones and inject the emperor with needles.
Cixi and Ci'an both refused. How could this be done? The king of a country turned his butt to the foreigner, and the foreigner even used a stick to gesture at the emperor's back.
This is unethical and undermines the majesty of the Qing Emperor.
So they refused foreign treatment.
Nowadays, imperial doctors don’t know enough about Hualiu disease, and they don’t know how to treat it.
There is no good treatment method, so we can only stabilize it first.
But what was stable was no longer stable. His condition deteriorated rapidly, and the doctors were helpless.
