"Of course I'm protecting them." Tang Feng pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, feeling that there was no trap, so he immediately said without hesitation. Finally, he added: "Well, of course, there is you."
Rosabeth glanced at him and said angrily: "As the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Look at your own choice, what is the difference between Empress Dowager Cixi's choice back then? Humph, I'm so embarrassed to say that others are harming the country and the people.
, It's not the same when it comes to you?"
Tang Feng was stunned when he heard this and said in confusion: "What's wrong with me? Why did you become the same person as Empress Dowager Cixi in the blink of an eye? I knew that Huaxing Society would be fine, but ours was
The country and nation are in dire straits!"
"Haha, do you really think someone would destroy our country at that time?" Rosa curled her lips gently and said lightly: "Although I am not a historian, I still have the history of that period.
What I know is that neither the Eight-Nation Alliance nor the Japanese pirates, they do not have the ability or ambition to destroy us."
The corners of his mouth turned slightly, and Rosa stared at Tang Feng and chuckled: "First of all, they didn't have that strength. At that time, our country was vast and the five thousand years of history had given the entire country a kind of centripetal force and cohesion. No matter who it is, no matter who it is.
If you want to swallow this country in one bite, there is only one result, that is, you will be suffocated to death.”
"This is the same as the end of the Japanese pirates attacking our country during World War II. The reason why the late Qing government kept begging for mercy was because they had not been put into a dead end. There is still a possibility of spending money to eliminate disasters in everything.
In this case, of course they had to live by. But if the great powers at that time were under the banner of destroying them, would you think Cixi would really let them slaughter?" The chuckling on the corner of Rosa's mouth was particularly arousing
people.
Although Tang Feng was unwilling to admit it, he still shook his head slightly. Whether it was Manchu or Han, they were actually the masters of this country, and they all had the same characteristics, that is, resilience. Among their national qualities, there is one
A spring-like existence, as long as the pressure is within a range they can still bear, then what they do is to shrink continuously.
Unless this pressure is greater than their contraction, such as life and death. Just like the later World War II, Japan led to bipartisan cooperation, if the late Qing Dynasty was really in danger of being destroyed, they would be afraid that they would fight back at all costs.
"Isn't that all, let alone other than that, the great powers have their own thoughts. They will not allow such things to happen, because it is not in their own interests, isn't it?" Rosa went there
road.
Tang Feng nodded again. At this time, he suddenly realized that the Japanese operation during World War II was the strongest proof of Rosa's view. Didn't the United States and other countries at that time provide a lot of help to Country Z? It can be seen that these countries are
The best way to restrain each other is to avoid the Z country.
"Haha, in fact, the best way to deal with the powers at that time was to boil the frog in warm water, and slowly made the frog in the Qing Dynasty become a corpse without realizing it. But they still underestimated the people of Country Z.
After all, there are still two talents in the country." Rosa said lightly.
"As you say that, Empress Dowager Cixi really had a premonition that the country Z would not perish. The only difference was that she suffered some suffering, so she deliberately abandoned it and turned to seek opportunities for her family to survive?" Tang
Feng raised his eyebrows and said lightly. This was the first time he heard such a bold and novel conclusion, and he looked at Rosa for a moment with a hint of strangeness.
But Rosa didn't notice it and said to herself: "Yes, this is just like the choice you made just now. Cixi was in power for decades, but she hadn't seen any scenes? The Qing army retreated step by step.
Without a compulsory general, no army outside, and with the powerful beings staring at each other, they would not allow Country Z to become rich and powerful. Just imagine that under such circumstances, it would be strange if she could not see the future of Country Z."
Gently exhaled, and said lightly: "I don't know when she started the Blue Flag Army plan, but seeing her orderly steps, I think she must have started to start after discovering that there was no hope in the late Qing Dynasty.
I'm ready. As for the Westernization Movement, the Reform Movement of 1898, it might be part of the Blue Flag Army."
"From what aspect do you determine that the Westernization Movement and the Reform Movement of 1898 are also part of the huge plan of the Blue Flag Army?" Tang Feng's curiosity became even stronger, and he looked at Rosa quietly and said.
"It's very simple. In that era, training an army of 100,000 people was simply a very difficult thing. At that time, the late Qing government lost so many battles to the great powers. If it was not aware of the importance of advanced weapons, it would be strange if it didn't realize the importance of advanced weapons.
Left. Under such circumstances, how can I do if Cixi wants to build a powerful iron army without using these advanced weapons?” Rosa said lightly.
"Since that's the case, why didn't Empress Dowager Cixi let these 100,000 iron troops drive out the Tartars? As you said, the combat effectiveness of these 100,000 iron troops should be extraordinary." Tang Feng said lightly.
"Haha, Death, you are trying me on purpose, but the difficulty is not very good. Since the Tang Dynasty, the rulers have understood a truth: water can carry boats or overturn the boats. The people's hearts are facing each other.
The fundamental reason for whether a dynasty can exist or not is that military power only plays an auxiliary role." Rosa said with a chuckling.
"The late Qing government at that time had a certain degree of cohesion, but it was also in the midst of storm. At this time, the war was everywhere in China. Once their army was launched, it was afraid that it would not only need to be external, but also internal.
It's easy to say, but if you don't have to beat them, they will be fooled by the mouths of the revolutionaries." Rosa said with a chuckling.
"So in that case, Cixi didn't dare to let the last ace in her hand take the risk at all?" Tang Feng said with a faint smile.
"That's right." Rosa nodded slightly, then was stunned, looking at Tang Feng with dissatisfaction and said, "Okay, you know you're asking me on purpose, are you playing tricks on me?" She raised her hand to Tang Feng
He gently hammered his chest.
Seeing this, Tang Feng hurriedly grabbed it with his hands, but Rosa's reaction was not slow. As soon as his hand moved, Rosa had already shrank back. Tang Feng didn't care, but just said softly: "Haha, it's not me."
I know, but someone once said something similar to you to me. There are always geniuses in this world, and now I finally believe this statement."
