Recently, I have something to do at home, and a few more books have been banned. My mood has been affected and I have been updated less. My mentality is recovering and my thinking is still adjusting. Please understand more. Thank you for your supporters and wish you all the best and all your wishes come true.

After the door was closed, Xu Chunshan hurried over and said anxiously: "Sir, will this guy take away the achievements of defeating the enemy?"

"The future is long, so you don't have to worry about not having the chance to make meritorious service." Chen Wenqiang smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of all, you and Li Jiajun's police officers are the most reliable personnel of this official. Less losses will be of great benefit to controlling the entire Guangdong. When the bandit suppression and clearance of the countryside comes to an end, I will hand over the general office to you, and the public security in Guangdong Province will depend on you. At that time, as the chief of a police officer in a province, he was quite majestic."

Xu Chunshan grinned with a smile, scratched his head, and said, "Actually, my subordinates still want to be a general, lead troops and fight, and rush around, that is really majestic."

"The command of thousands of troops is indeed powerful." Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "To be honest, this armed policeman is already very close to the army and is stronger than most local patrol teams. Well, if you have this intention and are not afraid of sacrifice, I will help you in the future."

"Thank you, sir." Xu Chunshan rubbed his hands, expressing his joy.

"Where is Li Jiajun, he does a good job in the patrol officer's position, and it's not like you think, right?" Chen Wenqiang asked, "You two, there is always one of you who wants to take charge of Guangdong. If you insist on the army, then the officer must combine the armed police and the patrol officer, and Li Jiajun is the general manager."

"He is a guy who is easy to satisfy." Xu Chunshan paused for a moment. He did not change his mind. "There is different from the low-ranking position. He cannot bear the reputation of his ancestors. He always has to do a great career."

Xu Da and Chen Wenqiang did not think that Xu Chunshan was a direct descendant of Xu Da, a famous general of the Ming Dynasty, but Xu Chunshan was proud of this and used it as an inspiration. He was willing to fulfill his wishes.

"When this battle is over, I will send you to Wu Shuai for training. I am training the new army. There are many opportunities. As for future achievements, it depends entirely on you. You also know that Wu Shuai's temper is not a qualified general, he will not be selfish."

"Ministry has been learning and improving." Xu Chunshan replied seriously: "If a man is a mediocre general, he will naturally not dare to lead troops to fight, which will only harm human lives."

"I'll go and do it well. If it doesn't work, I will leave a place for you." Chen Wenqiang nodded and said, "I'm nostalgic, you know that this is the case."

"Thank you, sir." Xu Chunshan respectfully gave Chen Wenqiang a deep gust. His lips moved a few times, but he still didn't say too stingy and flattering words.

Zhang Zhidong entered the military aircraft, and the two Han military ministers seemed to have the power to take charge of the imperial court, but in fact it was not the case.

Not to mention the personal conflict between the two, even the upright constitutional government has different opinions. Zhang Zhidong is a textualist. He wants a constitutional outline that can conform to the systems of China's dynasties and at the same time has historical basis; Yuan advocates that it can enrich the country and strengthen the army and absorb the advantages of the eastern and western countries. In this way, the ministers of Manchu and Han can no longer coordinate, and the two Han ministers have different opinions. How to promote constitutional government is suspected of stagnation at the court level.

Empress Dowager Cixi sent Prince Chun Zaifeng to the Military Affairs Office to study and enter the value of the Military Affairs Office, forming a pattern of "two princes" in order to restrain Yi Li, and transferred Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, to be the Minister of Military Affairs, intending to use him to restrain Yuan Shikai. Such a means of power-making and checking and balance are not bad, but there are still omissions.

The sophisticated Zhang Zhidong naturally knew the intention of Empress Dowager Cixi, and he was a gentleman after all. He was a little older, and as soon as he entered the capital, he found that the water was very deep. Yi Li and Yuan Shikai had been in the capital for many years and had already formed their own circle of interests. Zhang Zhidong soon discovered that Yi Li and Yuan Shikai's group were trapped and it was difficult to make a difference.

Despite this, as the military minister who was the most powerful minister, Zhang Zhidong was able to defend Chen Wenqiang and talk about his interests in the court. Therefore, Chen Wenqiang's secret letter was delivered to Zhang Zhidong before he wanted to take action on Lu Yundao. There was also another secret letter, which was naturally given to Yuan Shikai.

Of course, the content of the letter is not the whole fact. Chen Wenqiang exaggerated the threat of Australia and Portugal to use force to achieve the goal of expansion. At the same time, he also revealed some intentions of preparing to use tough means to fight back against Australia and Portugal. The letter also has analysis and judgment on the domestic situation in Portugal and the strength of Australia and Portugal, showing confidence in being able to win the battle.

Because the war has not started, Chen Wenqiang's secret letter seemed to be just a vaccination, which does not mean that he would go to war with Portugal, Australia. Therefore, Zhang Zhidong and Yuan Shikai did not realize that the war was just around the corner, so they sent a telegram to Chen Wenqiang, warning him to be cautious and not to be reckless.

That's it, Chen Wenqiang's goal was achieved. After following his instructions, the battle with the Portuguese and the Portuguese army started and gave a decisive blow to the Portuguese army, another secret letter would be delivered to Zhang and Yuan.

The intense arrangement has been completed, and the combat plan will be implemented first on the Loong of Road.

…………………

When Macau gradually became the intersection of trade between China and the West, Lukong Island was once a place where pirates often appeared. At that time, Lukong Island was deserted, overgrown with weeds and steep terrain. Except for some hunters, there were no people.

Decades later, there were more than 2,000 residents on the Loongbo Island, all of whom made a living by fishing. With the unreasonable and arrogant negotiations in Macau’s demarcation, the people of Guangdong learned that “the Portuguese people occupied nearby places, made extravagant hopes, and were determined to do so” and “the miserable cede land is at present” and decided to “gather a large group and work hard to save them.”

The people of Xiangshan, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and other places successively established the "Border Investigation and Maintenance Association" to reflect public opinion and people's sentiment to the government and put forward negotiation policies. The Xiangshan County Border Investigation and Maintenance Association also passed the "Lianli 98 Township Militia Charter", announcing the establishment of a militia, taking up weapons, fighting against Macau and Portugal, and defending their hometown.

The people's struggle suppressed the trend of compromise in the Qing Dynasty's negotiations. The Qing government had to say that "the lower part is public opinion", and "extra cautious and appropriately prepared" in the negotiations, refuting the unreasonable demands of the Portuguese colonists.

When Chen Wenqiang began to intervene, the militia on Lukong Island was supplemented with guns and ammunition, as well as the training of military coaches, and the patrol police entered Lukong Island, and their military strength was greatly enhanced. With the support of some ships of the navy, the scattered pirates on the island were wiped out.

The Portuguese Macau authorities also noticed the changes in the Loong Island, fearing that they would hinder their gradual occupation of the entire island. After the increase in the forts built in Lizhi Bay, the number of troops increased from 10 to 20 to more than 50. They also took the opportunity to occupy the land in the name of suppressing bandits.

The situation was tense. In order to resist the invasion, the Lukong Island militia fought back and fought back with the Portuguese soldiers. The Portuguese increased hundreds of troops again, and from the original occupied area, it became a little out of control. Dozens of houses were burned in Zhuwan, burning and killing and looting, "Dozens of villagers were killed by Fengdi." The Portuguese ship also chased and sunk fishing boats, and more than a dozen people were buried in the belly of fish.
