The senior brother collapsed in an unwilling vomit of blood.

This is just a small microcosm of this.

Too many Boxers had red eyes and looked at the Qing army with guns raised at them with hatred.

"The world is dark!We are the only ones who stand up and dare to resist with our flesh and blood

!" "

Destroy us, who will fight the foreigners for you!!"

They used all their strength to let out a long roar that looked up to the sky.

"Bang dang! Bang dang!" The

sky and the earth were dark, and this roar seemed to rob the spirit of all the Boxers, they had no strength, they put down the long knives and charms in their hands, and their bodies collapsed to the ground weakly.

The guns of the foreigners did not break them.

The repression of the Eight-Nation Alliance did not frighten them either.

But a small Qing army defeated them.

"Ahem, ahem..."

Seeing this extremely dark scene, Li Shimin only felt a dull tightness in his chest, his face was pale, and he coughed violently.

This is the most corrupt and darkest place in the imperial court, and it is vividly displayed at this moment.

They couldn't see it, they could barely hold their breath and gasp for air.

Sometimes, it really breaks a person, just in an instant.

He understands this feeling.

The changes in Xuanwumen are still vivid.

But now, he saw a scene that was even more tragic and chaotic than the change in Xuanwumen, when he personally killed the emperor's brother Li Jiancheng and his fourth brother Li Yuanji.

"They... Are they all dead?"

Ying Zheng looked at the picture in the sky, and couldn't help but whisper, his eyes were deep.

He saw that the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Coalition pulled the trigger on the Boxers, who were already unarmed and surrendered.

Due to the large number of Boxers, they also gathered a large number of Boxers, rushed to the river, and shot them together.

The youngest deceased, even just a newborn baby,

was stabbed to death in this way while his mother was still in her infancy.

The mediocre court still did nothing, but in order to protect itself, it helped the Eight-Nation Alliance to slaughter the survivors of the Boxers.

Even after the end of the day, Qing court officials sent two palanquins to be used as pennants to praise the Eight-Nation Alliance, which read: "I wish Xiaohuafeng!"

"There is no hope, our country can no longer see hope..."

After the allied troops entered the city, the entire capital was devastated, with ruins and broken walls everywhere and corpses everywhere.

A man from the Qing Dynasty with long braids sat on the ground with blank eyes, crying bitterly.

Next to it is a coalition army carrying foreign guns and cannons.

They proudly walked past the man, glancing contemptuously at the long pigtails behind the man's head.

In their eyes, the long braids of Qing Dynasty men were a symbol of backwardness and barbarism.

But instead of bullying the man, they came to his side, pretended to help him up, and stood together to take a picture.

"Bastard !!"

Seeing this, the emperors of various dynasties finally couldn't help it, and slapped heavily on the dragon chair, and Long Yan was furious.

"I am a big country and a nation, how can I ever be bullied like this

?" "Is the backbone still there? I'm afraid it was interrupted by the guns of foreigners?"

"

The country, has it stood up?

It has stood up

, but it is too short, and as soon as it stands up, it is kicked to the ground."

Sink deeper!The

picture changed, and the inventory of words in the sky continued.

[1900-1901, the country went from a year of miasma to another year of absurd shame. In 1901, the Qing court signed the Xinchou Treaty with the eleven countries.

[In 1901, which was also the last year of Li Hongzhang's life, that year, Li Hongzhang was seventy-eight years old. The

old Li Hongzhang can no longer see the road between himself and the country clearly.

"How can the civil strife be stopped? How can it be stopped?" he

thumped his chest, tears raging.

In the picture, he went to negotiate with Prince Qing Wang Yixuan.

From the moment you walk through the door, you are doomed to the loss of the sovereignty of this country and will be completely reduced to a colony.

At the negotiation table, the lion of the Eight-Nation Coalition opened his mouth and asked for one billion taels of silver.

Li Hongzhang said calmly: "The 200 million taels of silver in the "Treaty of Shimonoseki" signed at the beginning have not been paid off, if you pay another billion taels of silver, the Qing Dynasty will change, and you will not be able to change, and when the Qing Dynasty collapses, you will not even be able to take a penny in the end." The

representatives of the eight countries pondered again and again, and finally set the amount of silver at 450 million taels.

[At that time, there were about 450 million people in the Qing Dynasty, which was intended to punish the Qing Dynasty for compensating each person with one tael of silver.

In the face of harsh criticism and provocation from various countries, Li Hongzhang was terminally ill and was already powerless to refute.

But his old and thin body was trembling, his blurred vision had already flickered and dimmed, and there was a mouthful of blood buried in his heart, which he couldn't spit out.

"Sign it.

Prince Qing picked up the contract, looked at the unequal clauses in the treaty, and the hand holding the pen was trembling.

He didn't want to sign this word!

If he signed it, it would mean that the capital of the country was sold!

"Prince Qing..."

At this time, an old and hoarse voice came from his ears.

It's Li Hongzhang.

He was as old as a candle in the wind, as if it would be extinguished in the next second.

But he took the pen in Prince Qing's hand, smiled helplessly, and smiled bitterly: "The most difficult thing to sign on the traitorous treaty is your name, and to leave it is infamous through the ages, the prince is still young, and the road is still long, so it's up to me!"

After speaking, he signed his name on the contract without hesitation.

When signing, Jiang Li gave a close-up of the picture, so that the emperors of each dynasty could see the details of the signature.

At this moment, Yingzheng, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Shimin, Zhu Yuanzhang, Song Huizong and other emperors were collectively shocked.

Li Hongzhang signed, but he squeezed all his names together to form a signature that looked like the word 'Su', and it was difficult for outsiders to tell that this was Li Hongzhang's name.

[I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, the word 'Su' refers to "first-class Su Yibo", which is Li Hongzhang's title and his title for walking in the imperial court, but now, it has become a witness nailed to the pillar of shame!]

"Poof!"

After signing, Li Hongzhang finally couldn't help it, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out.

[After being diagnosed by a doctor, Li Hongzhang's old disease relapsed. [

On November 7, Li Hongzhang's death day arrived. That

day.

Li Hongzhang has put on his shroud and is waiting for the destiny to come.

But his eyes were still wide, and his eyes trembled, as if he couldn't rest assured that something was going on.

His old ministry asked him if there was anything else he couldn't put down.

At that time, he could no longer speak.

Zhou Fu of the old ministry promised Li Hongzhang: "The public office has not done anything, my generation can do it, please rest assured to go."

Li Hongzhang said goodbye with tears.

[Later, when sorting out the relics of the ancestors, I found that Li Hongzhang had written the last fold before his death, and there were only eight words on it: the external repair is reconciled, and the internal picture is rich and strong. [

China's way out lies in the word "rich and strong", only when "rich" can we become "strong"!]

[Perhaps he is the one who sees it most thoroughly. 】
