C1434 The Woman's Counterattack

People who qualified to compete at the top of imperial politics were never idiots. The empress dowager and empress dowager were initially a little flustered by the changes, but once they calmed down, their judgement of the current situation turned sharp.

Xiao Letian never dared to look down on the ancients, to him, what the ancients lacked was just that little bit of natural knowledge, and the power of prophets. If they also possessed all of Xiao Letian's knowledge, then even if Xiao Letian was toyed to death, he would still not know how he died.

The ancients were good at judging situations. They had studied a lot about the word 'power', such as power, influence, situation, and status … Wait, wait. The ten thousand changes were all due to the change that was about to occur due to the kinetic energy.

I raised my fist, ready to strike. The strength was already gathered but no action had yet been taken, and those who understood would judge the size of the punch, the thickness of the arm, the fullness of the muscles, and how much damage it would inflict.

Once one judged the situation, they would naturally have a response. Whether it was dodging, retaliating, resisting forcefully, or kneeling down and giving in, that was just a reaction towards the situation.

But the wise ancients also discovered that this state of power was sometimes a tool, such as raising my fist so that you could see the threat, but I did not end up out of it. I could achieve what I wanted simply by keeping it up.

Using a fist as an example seemed somewhat easy, but a fist represented the strength of a person's strength and the direction of their strength. Once this logic was understood, then everything on the board would be made clear.

All the forces of the enemy, whether directed against themselves or against others, produce a force that the political figures study and judge correctly.

A battle didn't necessarily have to wait until the result was known. When the potential energy began to accumulate, the experts were already prepared because they knew that the change in strength and direction was destined to affect the balance and result in a conflict.

How much did Xiao Letian's army expand? How much did the Gun Cannons increase? How many new factories have been built? How much water does the ship go into? How much had the direction of dispatch changed? These can all predict how much the political situation will change in the future.

Economic strength was also a manifestation of strength. For example, how much longer would Xiao Letian have to wait before he could completely control the Pacific route from Asia to the Chile? How long will it take for Suzhou's stock market to increase more than tenfold in size? What will be the circulation of South Ticket this year?

The changes in these circumstances were naturally within the judgment of these smart people.

Logically speaking, what changes did the foreigners have right now, what actions did the Xiang Army have? Every single move of General Xie Zi Liu, Xiao Letian and even Zai Chun, all of them became a web of influence, sticking every single politician onto the spider web.

Maybe each of them thought they were the spider that controlled the net, but in the eyes of others, he was also the trapped fly!

After a long series of questions and analysis, the sisters had once again returned to the days when they were competing with the Gu Ming and eight ministers for intelligence and courage. Ci Xi had even found the nervousness of being plotted to death by Su Shun.

The rapid secretion of epinephrine was very helpful in human thinking, and very soon, the two of them found a way out of it.

"Sister, we don't have any soldiers. Even if we do, we're not elite soldiers. We can't be reckless …" "Now is the time to strike the balance of power!"

"Yes, sister is right. In the past, the Xiang Army, the Imperial Court and the foreign powers all had their strengths, but at the very least, it was a balanced situation. As long as we use our powers well, it would not be difficult for us to get what we want!"

"The source of all these changes is Xiao Letian, the fourth power. He rose up too fast, breaking the balance and making others feel threatened … It is precisely because the balance of the Bureau was broken that there are countless loopholes for the youngsters to exploit! "

Speaking till here, the two of them actually spoke at the same time, "We need to suppress Xiao Letian, reduce his rate of development, and as long as we lower his threat level, General Gui will not have the truth of expanding the army anymore, furthermore, Ceng Titou and the rest need to restrain themselves a little!"

Ci Xi nodded his head, "That's right, after beating Xiao Letian up, Great Qing will return to the situation where the three sides are wrestling with each other, and only then will we be safe! Only then will it be safe! "

Ci An sneered as he looked at Ci Xi, "How do I beat Xiao Letian? This kind of thing, you're better at it than me! "

Ci Xi did not care about Ci An's sarcasm anymore. In order to protect his life, in order to preserve his own power, she could sell himself to this kind of person and not care about being sarcastic.

"Northeast!" "Let's start from the northeast!" Ci Xi gritted his teeth and said, "General Ninguta, Black Dragon River General T?pchin, they are all your loyal subordinates, let them do it … They have outflanked the Far East's volunteer troops! "

"Oh!" What if we can't beat him? " Ci An said indifferently.

"There's no need for them to take action. At the critical moment, they cut off the food lines of the Bravehearts and forbade the citizens outside from aiding them …" If there was no other way, they would have to get out of the way. Didn't the Russian have cavalry soldiers coming from the west? Lend them a path, outflank Xiang Shaolong! "

Her sinister face made Ci An shudder, and she said, "Is this the Ning and the outsider that you have mentioned before? Your methods are really vicious! "

Ci Xi gritted his teeth and said, "How can I not be vicious? We can't lose our lives! Help Russian save the Far East. When the time comes, they will support us two sisters and use the foreign devils to intimidate General Xie Zi Liu and Ceng Titou … That's right, we can still contact the British, and if they hate Xiao Letian, then what? It's very possible! "

Ci An let out a long sigh, "Then what about now? What are you going to do about it? What if he's desperate? "

"Impossible!" The new army had not been trained, so he didn't have the ability to turn the tables! "That fellow is naturally cautious, he is not a gambler. He would not gamble everything he has!"

"Transferring Li Hongzhang to the north, isn't he in Shandong? Let him head north to camp in the Langfang, and let him and the New Army form a corner. Then, we need to clean up in the palace, otherwise, I won't be able to sleep peacefully! "

Ci An nodded his head, "Since you've already decided, let's do it! First, he had to get past the current situation. In the future, he would think about other matters … You don't have to stay in the Forbidden City for now. During the day, we will handle the matters of the court together, and at night, you will stay with me in the Jingshan! "

"Didn't you want to cooperate with Russian? Since we've helped them so much, they have to show some gratitude as well! Let Ulangeli introduce a group of mercenaries to I! Draw a few houses at the edge of the North Sea and have them station themselves there! "

"What if there's an palace change? It's hard to say. In this Great Qing, you really don't know who's the loyal subject and who's the traitor! "The foreign devils can be relied on. Those people want money, and those with money can work for you. Just look at how simple it is!"
