When Qiao Zhiqing arrived at the Nanjing railway platform with two teams of personal soldiers, all the guests had already arrived, waiting for Qiao Zhiqing's arrival.As soon as he got out of the carriage, all the guests came up and saluted Qiao Zhiqing."
Your Excellency President, didn't Qiaoyu come with you" Su Wanru also greeted her, and was somewhat disappointed when she saw Qiao Zhiqing getting off the carriage alone.She is a friend of Pan Qiaoyu here alone, and today she wanted to take the first train with Pan Qiaoyu to visit Zhenjiang."
She's five months pregnant, so she can't move around.If you want to talk to her, just come to the presidential palace and look for her. ”Qiao Zhiqing smiled slightly, and followed the guests into the platform.The platform is the size of three classrooms, and is equipped with a ticket hall, an entrance and an exit.Adopting the traditional Chinese architectural style, it looks like a city gate building from a distance.After entering the platform, the huge locomotive with ten carriages was already ready on the railway.On the first leg of the train, Qiao Zhiqing also had to run back and forth on it.Because the people didn't know what this thing was, and they were afraid that they would lose their souls if they sat on it, Qiao Zhiqing had to teach them by word and deed to build up their confidence.Reporters from major newspapers also came to interview, and to Qiao Zhiqing's surprise, the reporters of the Central Daily used cameras for the first time.After the cutting ceremony, the reporter specially asked the responsible persons to get together and stand in front of the train for a group photo.A significant number of them call the camera a Soul Controller, because when the flash flashes, the soul is captured by the black box.So when they took pictures, their faces were tense, trembling and frightened, if there was no Qiao Zhiqing, they wouldn't want to be photographed by this thing.This camera was specially imported from the United Kingdom, and one was purchased by the Central Daily.The price is very high, and ordinary people can't afford it."
Mr.
President, what do you think of the railroad that has just been completed?"
the guests who were invited to make their first trip got on the train in turn, walking around the carriage and touching it, unable to believe how the thing moved.The reporter of the Central Daily was allowed to interview Qiao Zhiqing once, and after getting on the train, the reporter did it opposite Qiao Zhiqing, holding a sketchbook and recording it decently.Su Wanru also sat next to Qiao Zhiqing, she is the total investor in charge of this section of the railway, and she must do a detailed data survey on the operation of the railway.After the reporter finished speaking, Su Wanru also stared at Qiao Zhiqing's face curiously."
Do you think about it" Qiao Zhiqing thought for a moment, then raised his arm and replied with a chuckle, "In the future, New China will not only build the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway, but also build railways between provinces, cities and counties.These cities are connected, just like the pulses are connected by blood vessels, forming the blood of the country.As long as the blood is smooth, the country will be more dynamic and developing. ”"Then what do you want to say to the people" Seeing that Qiao Zhiqing didn't have any swagger, the reporter also smiled easily and asked a simple question."
I would say don't be too afraid of new things.Rail will be a must-have tool for you to travel, not only faster and more convenient, but also safer. ”Qiao Zhiqing chuckled, and as soon as the words fell, the whistle of the locomotive sounded fiercely."
Alright, thank you, Your Excellency, for giving me this interview, goodbye."
The reporter also got up and shook hands with Qiao Zhiqing to say goodbye.After getting off the train, I hurried back to the newspaper office to get the manuscript out as soon as possible."
You're much more relatable than I thought."
After the train started moving, Su Wanru smiled and sat down opposite Qiao Zhiqing.This carriage is a presidential box specially made for Qiao Zhiqing, in addition to the special seats for guests, a double bed is also set up for rest.The flight attendant came in and served a fruit plate to the two, and after a sweet greeting, they withdrew.Their costumes were all cut by Pan Qiaoyu according to Qiao Zhiqing's meaning, which is very similar to the stewardess costumes of later generations.The over-the-knee skirt with flesh-colored stockings looks very sexy and charming."
Was I very serious before" The corners of Qiao Zhiqing's mouth habitually went up, and he admired the scenery outside the window through the car window.At this time, it is already the Mid-Autumn Festival, and a large area of rice outside the window is almost ripe, like a golden carpet wrapping the earth."
No, you're a hard person to figure out.Let's say that you are friendly, you can take the lives of hundreds of thousands of people with a single order in Nanyang.Say you are serious, you treat the people with love. ”Su Wanru also turned her head to the window, picked up the nuts in the fruit bowl in her hand and took a small bite to eat, "We Chinese have been pursuing the golden mean for thousands of years, and we are low-key and don't like to provoke right and wrong.Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the Chinese are like docile sheep, bullying as much as they want.I'm just changing their minds and letting them say that the dragon of the East is about to wake up again. ”Qiao Zhiqing spit out a sentence with high ambition, and his words were all domineering and awe-inspiring."
But all the nations in the world can't be killed, doesn't this make them feel threatened, if so, the situation of the Chinese will be even more delicate, and they will always live in the hatred of foreign races."
Su Wanru smiled, trying to persuade Qiao Zhiqing to change the killing policy."
Wanru, then what do you say we should do with those aliens, give them bread, and tell them that we love peace.I think they finished eating the bread and saved up enough strength, the first thing was to snatch more bread" Qiao Zhiqing smiled disdainfully, never believing that any Huai Rou policy could conquer a nation.Su Wanru was speechless, the man in front of her always had his own set of crooked reasoning.You just want to refute it, and you don't have a reason to refute it.The train symbolically ran around the outskirts of Nanjing, and soon returned to Nanjing Station.Qiao Zhiqing didn't have time to go to Zhenjiang for a trip, the war in the north was busy, and he paid attention to the military reports of various ministries every day, where did he have the heart to play.Back at the presidential palace, it was already dark.Wei Ziyou knew that he was back, so he hurriedly took the military newspaper into the study, and asked sweetly when he saw him, "Brother Qiao, why did you come back so early and how did it feel to walk with a beautiful woman" "Do you mean Su Wanru" Qiao Zhiqing took the military newspaper and asked rhetorically.Although he had a slight affection for this girl in his heart, he was not very attractive.Su Wanru's brain is like that of an Englishman, full of logical thinking.It's rational, but it's boring."
Yes, Brother Joe.Take me with you when you take the train another day, I'm so big, I haven't sat on such a big iron guy What do you say how it runs, it's really strange, it doesn't eat grass or drink water, and it can still move" Wei Ziyou pleaded with a yearning on her face, she was busy with work, and she usually couldn't spare a little time.I can only follow Qiao Zhiqing to take advantage and feel what it is like to take the train."
Okay, when the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway is fully opened, let's go to Shanghai.Go back to your hometown and take a look at what's happening in Shanghai. ”Qiao Zhiqing was amused by Wei Ziyou's thoughts, maybe all Chinese have such doubts, how did such a big iron thing run, "Great, Brother Qiao, you have to talk and count." ”Wei Ziyou was like a little girl, coquettish, and sat down on the couch and kicked her little feet."
Forget it, I'll be idle another day, and I'll take you to play enough" Qiao Zhiqing agreed in his mouth, but in his mind, he was not only thinking about this big game of chess in Jiangbei.Now that the Qing court has the support of foreigners, it is like a return to the light before death, and the bones of the body suddenly become hard again.According to military reports, the Qing court apparently cooperated with the Hui to resist the expansion of the Huaxing army.Since the Left Army, the Right Army, the New First Army, and the Three-Route Army crossed the river, the military balance in Jiangbei was suddenly broken.Not only is the court nervous, but the Hui people are even more nervous.At the beginning, the Huaxing army annihilated hundreds of thousands of Hui people in one fell swoop, and in their hearts, they were already demonic.Now that the Hui only control Ningxia and Xinjiang, the Huaxing Army sent troops to reinforce Shanxi, apparently to pacify the northwest.In order to defend against the Huaxing army, the imperial court once again reached an agreement with Ma Hualong in Ningxia and Agubai in Xinjiang, despite the opposition of the Han ministers.From the already not very rich treasury, materials were withdrawn to aid the two of them.With the material support of the Qing court, Agubo and Ma Hualong began to be restless again.Constantly tentatively harassing the Huaxing army in Gansu and northern Shaanxi, each time only sending cavalry to fight, once the two soldiers intersected, they immediately withdrew, and did not desperately entangle with the Huaxing army.Wang Shijie stepped up the reorganization of the troops, only defending, and did not take the initiative to attack.What made him strange was that the cavalry of the Hui people had increased several times in a year, and he didn't know where those horses came from.Qiao Zhiqing guessed clearly, needless to say, it was naturally provided by the monk Prince Lin Geqin of Mongolia.Ningxia and Xinjiang border Mongolia, not only the Hetao Plain is suitable for horse breeding, but also many Mongolian ethnic groups are war horses.Qing Tingming didn't want to tear his face with Huaxingjun on his face, but he also invested enough money behind his back.The reason why Wang Shijie is reluctant to do it is because Ningxia and Xinjiang are different from other places.Both are located in rain-barren land, and most of them are deserts.Once a war is initiated, strategic replenishment will be quite difficult.Wang Shijie has a belief in his heart, either he will not fight, but he will win.After the Qing court supported the Hui people, Qiao Zhiqing didn't want them to live in peace, and secretly supported the Heaven and Earth Society to make trouble in Shandong.After Qiao Zhiqing asked Wang Shijie to provide them with 30,000 foreign guns last time, the Boxer Boxer army that fled in the Yimeng Mountains quickly made a comeback, and then Qiao Zhiqing successively sponsored them with a lot of grain, grass and silver.In Shandong, the slogan of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the land" was shouted, recruiting troops and horses, and expanding strength.The situation in the north and south of the Yangtze River is still different, and the peasants' lives are very tight.Last year, there was a drought in the north of the Yangtze River, and there was no harvest in many places.In addition, the Qing court levied arbitrarily and arbitrarily imposed taxes, which caused a group of peasants to revolt.The armament of the Heaven and Earth Society suddenly recovered to more than 100,000 people, plundering one county after another.For a period of time, he even pressed the important place of Zhili, scolded Cixi angrily for Rong Lu, and asked him to unite Shandong and Henan to completely exterminate this gang of rogues this year
