In the 26th year of Guangxu, the Gengzi year of the lunar calendar.

This was a year of great significance in Chinese history. The Boxer Indemnity we later knew happened in this year. In the late Qing Dynasty, there were many compensation for defeat, but only the Boxer Indemnity was "named and surnamed" and was often presented separately.

Because it is the largest amount of compensation in Chinese history, it also earns 39 years to pay off the material resources of China.

But before that tragedy, the backbone of the Qing Dynasty was still standing stubbornly after several tramplings. In the hearts of the ruling people, there was still a great China and the country of the Celestial Kingdom.

After experiencing the Opium War and the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, this giant in the Far East suddenly woke up, but the bloated and corrupt feudal dynasty system dragged it to catch up and staggered.

Capital City, Li's Mansion.

In this place where powerful people gather, the Li Mansion, which once had a minister of the Ministry of Works, finally came to an end after several generations of decline.

The head of the family, Li Qiyun, is a doctor in the Qing Lishu Department of the Ministry of Works. He is a fifth-ranked craftsman. He is a world-famous craftsman. His eldest son Li Rufeng is better than his blue. He became the commander of the Forward Battalion at a young age. He has the best martial arts skills in the capital, and his future is unlimited.

In mid-June, the pomegranate flowers in the yard are in full bloom, red and bright, clustered together with other charming bitches in the flower garden to decorate the spring scenery.

Li Rufeng, who was dressed in military uniform, had not had time to change his casual clothes, so he was summoned by his father to the study room.

Pushing open the door of the study, Li Qiyun leaned against the large sandalwood chair, lowered her head, looked at the table, and was stunned.

Li Qiyun has long beards and a jade-like face. He is powerful without anger. When he was young, he became famous for his family for being in the wind. When he was middle-aged, he still has a strong appearance and is outstanding in his skin.

Li Rufeng called his father twice and gradually emphasized his tone.

Li Qiyun seemed to have reacted, and said softly, "Rufeng, you are here."

Li Rufeng sat down and frowned and said, "Why did my father call me? You look frowning."

"Dongdong!"

Li Qiyun tapped the desk with his finger twice, pushed the drawing above, and said, "Look at it yourself."

With doubts, Li Rufeng unfolded the drawings and saw countless complex runes carved on them, with a wide variety. Apart from the two religions of Taoism and Buddhism, there were no less than seven schools he could recognize.

After watching for a while, he was sure that this was a formation.

At the end of the drawing, there are four words written: the powerful weapon of the country and the magical power of creation.

"This is..." Li Rufeng was a little uncertain.

"Invincible fighting soul." Li Qiyun said.

"Didn't they give up yet? Can Li Zhongtang agree?" Li Rufeng's eyes widened.

The Incomparable War Soul Plan!

A project that the court has planned for forty years.

The story starts with the First Opium War. It was the first time that the Qing Dynasty was blasted to open the country. Although there were firearms at that time, they were still dominated by cold weapons. Suddenly, a group of foreign devils holding foreign guns and driving foreign cannons were beaten by dads.

From then on, this dynasty that once won the world on horseback and was famous for its force realized that it was behind.

How could agricultural civilization be so hard that industrial civilization?

The country needs to save itself, but how to save it, there were two voices at that time:

1. Learning from the West, learning from the strong is the instinct of the weak.

2. The Palace of the Ten Thousand Gods.

Due to the limitations of the times, people do not know that industrial civilization is the real way out for human civilization. They regard themselves as the Celestial Kingdom for hundreds of years and have unreasonable contempt for foreigners.

Therefore, the Ten Thousand Gods became the choice of the Qing court to save themselves.

However, the Palace of the Ten Thousand Gods is an illusory legend after all. After the whole country pursues the non-existent Phantom, the diehards are discouraged.

The Westernization Movement has begun.

But the diehards did not give up. If the Temple of God cannot be found, then we will create invincible "weapons". So the Incomparable War Soul Plan was born.

Due to many obstacles, this plan had to be stopped in the end.

First of all, Li Zhongtang, who was a very powerful minister, demoted him to a wrong way and a strange trick. He said bluntly that the rise of a great country is not just one person or one thing, but everything in all people.

As the Qing court reached today, except for that chair, most of the power had been held by the Han people, and the diehards had to avoid their edge.

Secondly, the Wushuang War Soul Plan lacks two core "objects", one is the ultimate treasure, and the other is the ultimate person.

The Qing court no longer had the prosperity at the beginning of its founding. After experiencing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Rebellion, he looked at the blood-born world and had no extreme principles.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom directly exposed the Qing Dynasty's energy. In China's history, such rebellions were extremely rare.

Li Zhongtang's memorial describes the post-war situation in Jiangsu as follows:

"Su Province has dense land, with most people in the capital half a village, three miles a town, and smoke from cooking and chickens and dogs hearing each other. Now, they look flat and trunks and roads blocked by jinglings and haystacks, and there are no residents for several miles, and there are no residents for twenty or thirty miles. There are broken walls, dilapidated walls, lonely wild goose breathing, and one or two of them are left alone, all of whom are no one looking, moaning and hanging dead."

The great harm can be seen.

However, after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and the Beiyang Navy was wiped out, the movement, which claimed to be the dynasty's self-rescue, was declared to have failed.

For the Westernization faction who longs to save himself, it is a catastrophe. How many people are disheartened and how many people are old all night long.

"Now that Western countries are eyeing each other, the Boxer Regiment is too big to lose, and internal and external troubles, the plan for the Wushuang War Soul has been secretly restarted." Li Qiyun picked up the teacup and put it down again, and he really lost his mood to drink tea. "Today, Lord Shangshu quietly gave me the drawings and brought the empress dowager's oral order."

"What does the Queen Mother say?"

"If a scholar has been raised for a hundred years, if everyone dares to die, how can it be less powerful than the evil flames? Promote our country's power!"

Li Rufeng shook his body, held the corner of the table, gritted his teeth: "All civil and military officials in the court were shirked, and women were incompetent in power."

"Shut up!" Li Qiyun slapped the table in anger, his voice and expression were harsh.

"Father, what do you think of it? What do you think of the Li family?" Li Rufeng said excitedly.

The Li family is a weapon refining family that has been passed down for hundreds of generations. There are many skilled craftsmen in the family, including magical tools, fire tools, and cold weapons. Li Qiyun is even known as the "Lu Ban of the Times".

When the Invincible Soul Plan was originally planned, the Li family was one of the core forces.

First of all, the family was declining, and Li Qiyun's father was eager to revive the family, so he agreed to his preferences and recommended himself. Li Qiyun was able to have a prosperous official career, so he had this kind of relationship.

Secondly, as a weapon refining family, the Li family cannot avoid it.

But the Wushuang War Soul Plan is a dead end that doesn’t work. So many capable people and strangers are helpless. How can the Li family do it?

Over the years, the Empress Dowager has become more and more moody, and will be implicated and violent and cruel.

"The Empress Dowager agreed to take out the Black Water Spirit Pearl." Li Qiyun suddenly said.

Li Rufeng was stunned for a moment, shook his head for a long time: "Even so, where can we find a Jidao for them? Besides, this formation may not work. They all cross the river by feeling the stones. Even if there are Jidao masters, they are unwilling to take risks."

"This is why I came to find you." Li Qiyun looked at his eldest son.

Li Rufeng is the strongest in the Li family, not only the Li family, but even in the entire northern blood-born world, he is also a master among the masters. Li Rufeng, the eldest son of the Li family, went out to ask, who has never heard of the blood-born world.

It is precisely because of this that he was promoted to the commander of the charge camp.

The father and son looked at each other for a long time and understood.

Li Rufeng shook his head bitterly: "I'm not even a half-step extreme road."

"Your uncle and I will give you a sensation, forcibly improve your cultivation to a half-step extreme, and cooperate with the strengthening power of my Li family, supplemented by the Black Water Spirit Pearl and Formation..." Li Qiyun did not continue. He was silent for a long time, with red eyes: "Rufeng, I am sorry for you for my father. If you don't want to, I can expose this to Li Zhongtang."

There are many people who oppose the Wushuang War Soul Plan. To this day, even the Empress Dowager cannot act arbitrarily, so she only gives oral instructions.

Li Rufeng thought about it and accepted his fate, "If I can't lose my Li family, I will also get rid of those people. Besides, I may not fail."

But, it's just a utmost ability, really turning the tide?

"You don't have to go back to the camp for the time being, just stay at home... and accompany Wanru and Ling'er."

"Um."

Li Rufeng got married the next year and had a child the next year. He could stagger and learn to speak.

After leaving the study room and turning into the back house, he did not go to see his wife and son who had been away for a long time, but went to another yard.

Fang Fu stepped into the yard, and the gunshots sounded, Li Rufeng's hair stood up, his instinctive reaction was faster than his consciousness, and an iron bridge avoided the attack.

"boom!"

The wall behind him collapsed.

In the yard, a young girl wearing a cheongsam stood tall, with her left hand on her hip and a Mauser-fired rifle in her right hand.

This is the most advanced rifle in the world.

The girl giggled and said, "Little thief, is he trespassing into my aunt's yard? Is he stealing money or robbing her? "

The innocent charm that belongs only to a girl is overwhelming.

Before Li Rufeng could speak, she smiled and said, "Don't get money, you can give me a disaster. How do you think this little lady?"

She used her mouth to rush to her close maid Ruyi.

The maid who was about the same age as the lady suddenly turned red, lowered her head and looked at the tip of her shoes.

"Your personal maid will be with you in the future. Brother, I don't want to offend my future brother-in-law in advance." After Li Rufeng said that, he stepped forward angrily and knocked her a chestnut: "Damn girl, do you want to kill your dear brother with one shot?"

"My father said that the country is in trouble with internal and external troubles, and the storm is in turmoil. My brother is the commander of the charge camp again. I must not tell you to be vigilant at all times." The little girl was clever and polite.

Li Rufeng took the Mauser rifle, used the enhancement ability, and fired a shot at the courtyard wall, and the bullet exploded a big hole as thick as a bowl.

Look at my sister's shot and half of the wall just now...

Li Rufeng shook his head: "It's embarrassing, embarrassing."

The girl raised her feet, raised her hand, and her sleeves slid down, revealing her wrists that were swept away from Shuang Shengxue. She touched Li Rufeng's head: "If you have a little progress, you can teach me."

Li Rufeng had a dark face and spat at her: "Go away, elder brother Rufather, you are becoming more and more unruly."
