The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

When Porfirio Díaz stepped down, Francisco Madero, who had the most prestige to be the new president of Mexico, asked Zhao Chuanxin to behead him in Beijing.

Felix Diaz was beheaded by Zhao Chuanxin on the spot because of his lack of knowledge about Zhao Chuanxin.

Now, the winner is Victoriano Huerta, who “knows the big picture.”

He reached out to Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata to pray for peace.

He promised the two men that he would implement the remaining parts of the San Luis Potosi plan in order to get their support for him to take office.

At this time, Zapata was approaching Mexico City from the south, and Pancho Villa was eyeing outside Juarez.

The combined strength of the two cannot be underestimated.

But the two also had their own calculations, and in the end they actually got the better of Victoriano Huerta, so they could only agree with Huerta.

Huerta was frightened and angry when he learned that Zhao Chuanxian was leading the Chili Peppers into Veracruz.

He sent a telegram to Kuit Shalan and asked Zhao Chuanxin why he attacked Atore.

Miguel Esteban, who was recovering from his injuries and guarding the rear of the base camp, gave him a reply: Because the rebels were revolting in various places, the state of Veracruz was also affected. The mob took advantage of the situation to cause chaos, and countless citizens had their homes destroyed. Don John Constantine led the troops to quell the chaos and stabilize the situation. Veracruz state is still part of Mexico, but it will implement autonomy in the future in order to safely weather the difficulties...

Huerta was furious after receiving the news, and ordered Zapata to lead troops to Quit Shalan to frighten Zhao Chuanxin.

Zapata did not carry out the order, but asked Huerta when the land would be returned to the farmers.

Huerta dismissed Zapata on the grounds that he would only have power after becoming president.

But the issue of shocking Zhao Chuanxin has been put on hold for the time being.

Hoover took a ship from South Africa and was about to arrive in Veracruz, Mexico.

Back then, he had an arm broken by Zhao Chuanxin, and was frightened by Zhao Chuanxin's threat, so he promised that Zhao Chuanxin would call him at any time in the future.

Some time ago, Zhao Chuanxin informed Hoover to come to Mexico. He did not dare to disobey and rushed over.

The future big boss of the United States was humbled to the extreme in front of Zhao Chuanxin.

Hoover met Zhao Chuanxin in Atore.

He was still a little embarrassed at first, but Zhao Chuanxin acted like it was nothing and stepped forward to pat his broken arm and greet him: "Hu Hua, I heard that in recent years you have been prospering all over the world and made a lot of money. ?”

Hu Hua is the Chinese name of Hoover.

He was shocked, thinking that Zhao Chuanxin was thinking about his wealth: "He works hard to make a living, and all he earns is hard-earned money, not much."

Hoover could speak fluent Chinese.

He is low-key, reserved, even groveling.

I just ask Zhao Chuanxian not to steal his wealth.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled meaningfully: "I know you have now opened an engineering company and are engaged in mining consulting. I am afraid you are worth one or two million US dollars now, right?"

Hoover was even more afraid: "No, no, just tens of thousands of hard-earned money."

Zhao Chuanxin raised his eyebrows: "Huh? People call you the 'Good Doctor for Sick Mines'. It seems that this name is not worth much?"

"Exactly, exactly." Hoover nodded with a peck of rice.

"Then I'll be relieved." Zhao Chuanxin patted his chest.

Hoover had a bad premonition: "Mr. Zhao, what do you mean by this?"

"That's right. I'm going to explore in the state of Veracruz, and I need your help as a good doctor. Everyone says you have superb skills. But I didn't expect you to charge such a low commission, so I'm relieved."

"Ah this..."

Hoover was dumbfounded. He actually had a net worth of more than 2.6 million US dollars.

His skills are indeed superb.

He charges equally high prices.

But in order to keep his wealth secret, he forced himself to lower the price, allowing Zhao Chuanxin to take advantage.

It's too late to change his tune now.

He smiled bitterly: "Mr. Zhao, what kind of mine do you want to explore?"

Zhao Chuanxin blew a smoke ring and said: "Oil!"

The state of Veracruz is occupied for oil.

Hankou Juanwang Technical College produces more and more cars.

At present, most of the oil is imported from the Netherlands, and it needs to be reprocessed and produced to match the octane number required by Juanwang cars.

Sakhalin also produces oil, but the north is occupied by Tsarist Russia. The Peacekeeping Bureau and Tsarist Russia are at odds with each other. If Tsarist Russia discovers that there is oil there, it will probably be twice as difficult to recapture the other peninsula.

Zhao Chuanxin had no choice but to start with Mexico, which was a soft persimmon. Anyway, this was what he had planned for a long time.

…

The road protection movement was vigorous, and the provincial advisory bureaus continued to make requests to the Qing court.

The royal cabinet established by the Qing court issued a document telling the provincial advisory bureaus to depose Zhi Baisi, which was the power of the emperor and that members of the parliament were not allowed to interfere.

Blanch!

How about setting up a trivial advisory bureau?

Many constitutionalists were disillusioned and defected to the revolutionary camp.

Zhao Erfeng is a tough guy with an iron fist.

The membership of the Baolu Comrade Association grew to 100,000 in less than half a month.

These people destroyed the tax department and police stations in some areas.

Zaifeng was angry.

He gave Zhao Erfeng an order to suppress the road protection movement.

Zhao Erfeng immediately arrested more than a dozen leaders of the road protection movement.

Tens of thousands of members of the Baolu Comrade Association petitioned for his release.

Who is Zhao Erfeng? How could he be threatened by this?

His temperament is actually very similar to that of Zhao Chuanxin. He can be smoothed but will get angry when he is beaten.

It's a pity that he has Zhao Chuanxin's iron-blooded skills, but he doesn't have Zhao Chuanxin's strength.

Facing tens of thousands of people, Zhao Erfeng was not afraid and ordered the soldiers to shoot.

There was a sudden uproar, more than 30 people died on the spot, and dozens of people were injured.

The incident got so serious that Zhao Erfeng ordered the whole of Chengdu to be under martial law to block news.

But people from the Tongmenghui invented the "water telegraph".

To write a telegraph message on a wooden board, brush it with tung oil, wrap it in oil paper, and put it into the river and float it down the river.

In this way, they spread the news about the Chengdu murder case throughout southern and eastern Sichuan.

The people were completely angered, rose up in arms, and besieged various parts of Sichuan, with Chengdu as the primary target.

Zaifeng was shocked when he learned about this and quickly dispatched his troops.

The Hubei Army was the main force, and the Hubei New Army traveled day and night to Sichuan to suppress it.

As a result, Wuchang, Hubei Province was empty of troops.

Sun Gongwu has been waiting for the opportunity for these years, and his eyes are glowing green as he waits.

How could he let go of this golden opportunity?

Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren immediately went to Hubei to provide guidance for the uprising, and jointly organized the Literary Society and the Gongjinhui. At the joint meeting, the military commander-in-chief was Jiang Yiwu, the chief of staff was Sun Wu, and the subordinate commander was Zhang Shuangxi from Lugang Town.

Sun Wu said: "Double Happiness, we plan to prepare bombs in the Russian Concession in Hankou. You and Zhao Tangong have a very close relationship, and we are like brothers. You might as well ask him for help and let me wait in..."

Now Hankou Juanwang Technical College controls most of the Russian Concession, the entire British Concession, and the original Belgian Concession.

When Shuangxi heard this, he immediately felt disgusted in his heart.

It was because of the sympathy between brothers that he was unwilling to let Zhao Chuanxin go through troubled waters.

Seeing that he was silent, Jiang Yiwu said solemnly: "Double happiness, this opportunity comes once in a lifetime, so don't miss it."

Shuangxi sighed: "I'll give it a try."

He didn't even bother to dress up and went directly to Liu Huaqiang.

Liu Huaqiang was happy after hearing this: "What's this? As long as you ask, no matter what you want, our principal will support it. Isn't it just bombs? You don't need to prepare them. I will contact Juanwang Ordnance Factory and provide you with a batch of bombs and Ordnance and ammunition.”

Shuangxi was stunned.

I have been with the Tongmenghui for a long time, and it would be a lie to say that I have no affection.

He was very conflicted. He hoped that Sun Gongwu's rebellion would succeed, but he did not want to delay Zhao Chuanxin's plan.

Liu Huaqiang seemed to have some clues and comforted him: "In Hankou, we at Juanwang Technical College, even if we cause trouble, ordinary people will not dare to trouble us. Don't worry."

Only then did Shuangxi show his face and bow his hands in thanks.

Jiang Yiwu and Sun Wu were elated after hearing the news brought back by Shuangxi. They looked at Shuangxi with admiration: "Zhao Tanggong is so powerful. If he can join our alliance, Hankou can be conquered in the blink of an eye."

The two of them peeked at Shuangxi's face and found that Shuangxi was smiling, but it was not funny, it was a sneer.

This time the temptation was given up.

Within a few days, Liu Huaqiang fulfilled his promise and provided them with 50,000 rounds of ammunition, 1,000 Juanwang M1908 lever rifles, and 100 bombs.

In addition, five Juanwang Universiade trucks are provided for use by the baggage team.

Jiang Yiwu and Sun Wu were shocked.

This is given free of charge!

"The fight hasn't even started yet, but Double Happiness has already made great achievements!" Sun Wu praised repeatedly.

Shuangxi pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

When the news reached Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren, they were equally overjoyed.

Liu Huaqiang also provided a place for the revolutionaries to stay.

The patrol room in the Russian Concession seemed to have a clue and wanted to investigate. Liu Huaqiang gave an order and the newly established police station of Juanwang Technical College was dispatched.

Liu Huaqiang pointed at the nose of the Russian Concession patrol officer and said, "Who the hell gave you the courage to come to our territory for inspection?"

The other party was frightened and left in despair.

Jiang Yiwu and Sun Wu watched the whole process upstairs and couldn't help but be shocked.

"Only people from Zhao Tan Gong dare to be so tough in front of foreigners!"

…

On the grassland, 18 princes, headed by Sanyin Noyan Khan Namu Nangsu Lun and Jebu Zundamba, held a secret meeting.

"What? Independence? Rebellion?"

"No, are you crazy? Zhao Chuanxin is staring at Lubin Mansion, but you still dare to do this?"

"I won't participate, I don't want to die!"

Prince Mishkedonglubu of New Turgut said with a cold face: "You shouldn't even ask us to come to a gathering to conspire. If this matter comes out, even if I don't do anything extraordinary, I'm afraid Zhao Chuanxin will not Will let me go."

The wooden bag Su Lun took a sip from the golden wine glass and put it on the table: "Humph, we have sent a delegation to contact Tsarist Russian Foreign Minister Sachanov, and there will be news back in the near future. The arrow is on the string, who doesn't agree? They are the sinners of Mongolia."

No matter how they were coerced and lured, most of the 18 princes present did not agree to participate in this matter, which can be said to be fearful of Zhao Ruhu.

Those who fear Zhao Ruhu are not only the princes and nobles of the prairie, but also the tsar.

If Zhao Chuanxin had not appeared, Tsarist Russia would have been increasingly concerned about the grasslands and beyond.

But it's different with Zhao Chuanxin.

Hangda Dorzi and Chelinzimit swore to Sachanov's oath: "I promise you that as soon as we return, we will sign a demarcation agreement with Lubin Prefecture, and it will never affect the territory of Lubin Prefecture. , and will never give Lubin Mansion an excuse to interfere..."

Foreign Minister Sachanov submitted a petition to the Russian court.

The Russian court considered many aspects, Nicholas II and the four villages repeatedly made a decision - to add two companies of Cossack troops to the guard stationed in Kulun, but it was only a mediator and would never support the severing of the relationship between the grassland and the Qing court, and would never interfere with the Qing Dynasty. In Binfu-related affairs, once a fight starts, they will never participate in the fighting and will still mediate.

After all, Nicholas II still coveted the grassland, but he did not dare to provoke Zhao Chuanxin, so he sent people to suppress the situation.

The scene of the town is the scene of the town, but he repeatedly warned that even if he helped Jebzundamba and the others, it would not work.

After leaving Kulun, Prince Mishkedongulubu of New Turgut immediately went to Lubin Mansion in person.

"General Manager Yao, General Manager Hu, and General Manager Zhang, to be honest, I was deceived into joining the alliance because that day was the Danshuk Festival. But when I heard that they were planning to collude with Tsarist Russia and create independence on the grassland - After I stood up, I came to tell you immediately."

Mishkedonglubu's attitude was respectful.

Yao Jia, Hu Da and Zhang Shouzeng looked as usual.

It seems to have been expected.

Hu Da asked him: "How many troops will Tsarist Russia send?"

Mishkedungrubu shook his head: "Tsarist Russia is cautious about this and seems to have not yet made a decision."

Yao Jia smiled: "Our adults are so great in martial arts and so famous that even a kid like Nicholas II would not dare to act rashly."

Zhang Shouzeng asked, "Your Majesty, before coming to Lubin Mansion, have you ever gone to Kulun to inform Kulun's minister Sanduo?"

Mishkedong Lubu shook his head: "No, I will come to Lubin Mansion as soon as possible."

Yao Jia and Zhang Shouzeng were extremely satisfied.

This guy really knows how to behave.

Zhang Shouzeng praised: "Your Majesty is very sensible and admirable. This matter is of great importance. I am afraid that Jebtsundamba has already planned it and has many followers. Your Majesty should not make any announcement after he returns. Let us discuss this matter with the Minister of Affairs in Kulun." ”

…

Although the Chili Peppers are making waves in Mexico, Zhao hasn't always stayed in Mexico.

Now he is flying in the sky and having a big brotherhood with Nikola Tesla.

Zhao Chuanxin is responsible for enlarging holes on the circuit board, brushing copper and plating copper, etc.

Drilling is a delicate job, done by Xingyue's black puppet craftsmen.

The copper plating and brushing were completed by Zhao Chuanxin and Xingyue together.

Benjamin Goldberg was fascinated by the circuit board.

This little thing solves the problem of machines becoming more and more sophisticated and circuits becoming more and more complicated.

He lamented: "It is better to create new things than to keep repairing old things."

Zhao Chuanxin used the Old God's Crucible Brand to assist in copper plating. He threw the newly copper-plated board aside: "So, you should understand why I want to accept your junior apprentice as my apprentice."

Although Benjamin Goldberg had a bright mind, he was stunned before he understood it. He couldn't help but get angry: "Master, I don't agree with what you said."

"Then you reserve your opinion."

Zhao Chuanxin made thirty boards.

The little mouse was responsible for taking the board to the laboratory for Nikola Tesla to power up and test it.

After not much effort, the little mouse came back with ten boards and said: "These failed to pass the inspection."

The little mouse worked as an assistant to Nikola Tesla, and he was clever and gradually adapted to this role.

Benjamin Goldberg looked at the board and said, "It's pretty good. Why is it unqualified?"

The little mouse scratched his head and said, "Mr. Ni said that it was probably the shopkeeper who smoked while making the boards that caused the rework."

Benjamin Goldberg said: "Master, please quit smoking."

Zhao Chuanxin shook his head while holding a cigarette in his mouth, and the ashes fell on the board.

"Quitting smoking is harmful to your health," he said.

Benjamin Goldberg stared: "Why? Isn't smoking harmful to health?"

"Because I discovered that three of your four mistresses mind the smell of cigarette smoke on my body. As long as they are present, there will be less trouble at night. Once you quit smoking, your body will soon become weak."

"..." Benjamin Goldberg thought of what happened in Tibet and said with empathy: "That's exactly what happened."

"?"

The days of flying in the sky were actually Zhao Chuanxin's rare leisure time.

Make inventions with Nikola Tesla and his apprentices, go for a walk outside, and build a house at the Peace Academy.

After handling the board, Zhao Chuanxin went for a walk.

Tianshangfei was originally a small house standing in the desert. Now it is surrounded by endless green grass and trees, and the desert sand and hot wind are blocked.

Zhao Chuanxin was walking around with his hands behind his hands and saw Edward VII teasing a marmot.

"Hey, Albert, watch out for the plague."

Edward VII turned to look at Zhao Chuanxin, stood up cheerfully and said, "Zhao, before I came here, I never thought I could live past 68 years old. I have to thank you for this."

There are many reasons why Edward VII was able to escape death.

The first is that flying in the sky is not as humid and cold as in London, which is conducive to his recovery from pneumonia.

The second is that the air traffic is not smooth, and there is no carriage to travel. He needs to ride a camel or simply walk on two legs. Edward VII quickly lost weight.

The third thing is that he can't indulge even if he wants to. There is no feasting and entertainment here, so he has to eat whatever Dunzi cooks and he doesn't have to choose.

Fourth, he has less social interactions and no intrigues.

King Edward VII said, "I'm going to Liangzhou City later. Do you want to come with me?"

Zhao Chuanxin shook his head: "It's not peaceful outside recently, so you'd better go out less often."

Edward VII, who was oblivious to what was going on outside the window, asked: "What happened?"

"There's going to be a war."

Just as Zhao Chuanxin said.

On October 10, the revolutionaries of the Eighth Battalion of the New Army Project took the lead in firing the first shot of the Wuchang Uprising, seizing the Zhonghe Gate and Chuwangtai Ordnance Station, seizing tens of thousands of rifles, dozens of artillery pieces, and countless bullets. One hundred thousand rounds.

The troops outside used the guns, ammunition and bombs provided by Liu Huaqiang to raise fire as a signal, and launched an attack at the same time, gathering towards the Chu Watchtower.

There were three groups in total. The first wave of attacks was frustrated, and a second attack was launched in the early morning of October 11.

Shuangxi led the way, and fearlessly broke through the Qing army's defense line with his vanguard battalion, and set fire with gasoline near the governor's office.

The fire was blazing, and Shuangxi hurriedly led his men to escape.

The troops near the Zhonghe Gate of Sheshan River bombarded according to the fire set by Shuangxi.

The Governor of Huguang, Ruicheng, was startled and hurriedly ordered his men to break the back wall and escape.

Shuangxi made another contribution.

Zhang Biao, the commander of the Eighth Regiment stationed in Han, still led the people to resist stubbornly.

Originally, the rebel army lacked a unified command. Shuangxi borrowed his face to ask for weapons from the Juanwang Technical College, and led the vanguard battalion to win the first battle, gaining prestige, and gathered troops from all directions to repeatedly attack the headquarters of the Eighth Regiment.

At the same time, he asked the troops of the Hankou Arbitration Group to help blow up the Caohe Iron Bridge to block the Qing army's way south.

Before dawn, Shuangxi occupied the governor's office and the headquarters.

Zhang Biao led his men to withdraw from Wu-chang, and Shuangxi led the rebel army to occupy the entire Wu-chang.

During the day, the streets of Hankou were already full of patrols of the revolutionary army.

Li Yuanhong, who was elected as the governor of the three towns of Wuhan and Hankou, shook Liu Huaqiang's hand and said, "Thank you for your help."

Liu Huaqiang liked this kind of highlight moment.

He said modestly, "It's all because of our principal's good teaching."

Li Yuanhong nodded with a serious face, "The country will not forget Zhao Tan Gong, and the nation will not forget Zhao Tan Gong."

Liu Huaqiang was relieved, "We received news that the Qing court has removed Rui Cheng from his post and let him make meritorious contributions. Minister Lu Kun, who was practicing autumn exercises in Yongping, was leading the Hubei troops to come, and the admiral Sa Zhenbing led the Yangtze River Navy to assemble on the Hankou River. The battle situation for defense is even more severe!"

Li Yuanhong was shocked.

This Juan Wang Technical College is indeed unfathomable. The Qing court can know about it first as long as there is wind blowing on the grass.
