In the evening of February 27, the left-behind troops wiped out a black army who wanted to advance in the direction of the dragon, and captured more than 80 black soldiers.

At noon on February 28, including the blacks captured in the suburbs of Halong, a total of more than 500 French African Colonial Army soldiers were sentenced to death in the name of war crimes after trial, and were immediately executed.

On March 1st, the Nanyang Army sent a superior force to surround Hanoi city. At the same time, Mei Dongxing wrote to the Annan government in the name of the governors of Guangning and Langshan provinces, suggesting that while the French colonial army suffered a fiasco defeat, the main force was Nanyang. The siege of the army in Hanoi, Haiphong and other isolated strongholds provided an opportunity to mobilize the main forces in the northern region, recover the land occupied by the French, and cut off its tentacles of aggression towards northern Annan.

The news of the Nanyang Army arrived in Hue, and the principal officials of the Annan government were greatly encouraged. On March 5, the court of Hue issued a commendation document, appointing Mei Dongxing as the official second-ranking ambassador, and awarded a loyal hero to him. Two, also responsible for the defense of Guangning, Langshan, Beijiang and Beining. …………

Officers from the Nanyang Army Corps at or above the school level received awards from the Annan government for promotion and silver rewards. However, the proposal made by Mei Dongxing made the matter great and the postponed response delayed.

Over time, the impact of the Annan war spread rapidly to the rest of the world.

On the mainland side, at the first news that Li Weiye led the French army to break through Hanoi, a bachelor lecturer from Hanlin Academy played, and it was planned to invite special soldiers to join the three provinces of Guangdong, Guizhou and Yunnan.

Defense Forces.

The Manchurian government took into account the opinions put forward by its ministers, and on February 28th ordered to give the ministers along the border and coastal areas a proposal of "it is important to protect the state and stick to the border". He also sent Li Hongzhang, a native of Ding You, to the military control of Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan provinces under the control of the governor.

In response, the prestige is urgently needed, and the Minister of the Incident will go to the preparatory office, which will stimulate the army and take care of the overall situation, and the defense of the three provinces will also have to carry on.

In order to avoid Annan being occupied by French aggression, the Qing government was forced to make some arrogant deployments and put a hard-line attitude on France.

However, in the face of the eager orders of the Manchu government, Li Hongzhang, who was in charge, played one after another and made the above decision to the Qing government.

Different opinions. On March 3rd, Li Hongzhang played "The Secret of Vietnam ’s Frontier Defense Issues", pointing out that the scourge of Vietnam today stems from the privately signed 1874 treaty with France in that year, which has reduced it to a French protectorate. Traditional suzerain-fan relationship. Therefore, China's desire to "protect the nation" is unreasonable for all reasons, and advocates that China stand by and let Vietnam do its part.

On March 5th, he wrote to the Prime Minister Yamen again, reiterating the above-mentioned proposition: Vietnam is "at its own peril and cannot report to the rescue." Based on this, Li Hongzhang advocated that China abandon the "protection of statehood" policy. Li Hongzhang agrees with the decision to "stick to the border", but he believes that Beibei's geographical environment is complicated, "the roads are rugged, the water is poisonous, the smoke is evil, and the smoke is incomprehensible all year round." The army was there to resist the law, and the French army would not easily swallow the Beibei and disturb the border between Yunnan and Guangxi. Therefore, as long as the original deployment is continued and the Yunnan and Guangxi provinces are dispatched to deter the border, he also particularly emphasizes that according to the military strength of the Manchu government and the state ’s financial situation at that time, the Manchu dynasty should not start a war with France to help Vietnam. .

"The province ’s coastal defense soldiers are in short supply, and the navy division has not yet been trained. It is not possible to talk lightly with the European powers and want to be in the bright candlelight. Therefore, Junjun Heng is in his grasp. Do n’t feel indifferent. Fortunately. "

Li Hongzhang's proposal coincided with the real ideas of the Manchu aristocracy. On March 6, the Qing government adopted Li Hongzhang's opinion and cancelled its appointment to control the three provinces' military and ordered him to return to the Northern Minister's post. In essence, the government has retreated from its stand of "helping Vietnam to resist the law and protect the nation."

On March 9, after learning that the Nanyang Army completely wiped out the French colonial army in northern Annan and surrounded the French white army,

The Manchu government was abnormal,

On the one hand, because they were worried that the actions of the Nanyang Legion angered the French, causing the French government to become angry and angry, and sending troops to invade the mainland, they ordered Zhang Zhaodong, Liu Zhangzhang and other officials in the southern coastal areas to strengthen coastal defense and prevent French warship attacks.

On the other hand, the Annan government was reprimanded to refrain from indulging the remaining injustices of the Taiping Army to challenge the French in the Beiban area, otherwise the Manchu dynasty will no longer endorse Annan's security status.

Different from the Manchu government's reluctance to withdraw, when the news of Annan's defeat in the war returned to the mainland, the French parliament unanimously approved a proposal to send additional reinforcements to rescue the besieged French army.

The Franco-Prussian War of 1871 ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ made the French lose face in Europe. In order to restore the image of the country, the French were like a red-eyed gambler, regardless of the Han diplomacy who came to negotiate The official explained, responding fiercely, "The current situation is not 1871. The Han government must immediately withdraw your troops in the northern Annan region and stop the shameful assaults and hostilities against the French army ..."

On March 12, 1881, French Minister of Foreign Affairs Chamerracus instructed the diplomats who were negotiating with South Korea in South America: "The combat effectiveness of the Han army is beyond our expectations. We have previously received information about the low combat effectiveness of the Han army in the Annan region It is completely inconsistent with the actual situation. You should use multiple channels to obtain information on the true combat effectiveness of the Han army as soon as possible, so that the central government can formulate policies for the Han country and provide reference.

In order to meet the arrogance of the French parliament that despises the Han country and is very happy, the French diplomat in South America responded:

Exaggeratedly, the combat effectiveness of their native regular army is at most equal to that of the French colonial army.

Moreover, the Han army troops are mainly concentrated in the homeland, and the number of troops stationed in Annan is limited. The supply depends on ocean transportation and does not have long-lasting combat capabilities. If the Republic army can send two to three thousand local regular troops to support the governor's office in Cochin Chin, Nanyang in Han The mythical combat myth of the Legion will be broken. "

The report of the French embassy official degraded Han's military strength, saying: "The power gap between Han and France in terms of land and sea is strangely exaggerated by my predecessor. If we make a strong action in Annan, we We must see the Chinese gangsters retreating before us. If we decide to take a naval containment operation, we will be able to cause the Chinese army to suffer the most damage. "
