I'm already a second-class member, but I'm still not used to wearing a flower feather on the head, but fortunately, the current situation is not available, I can't put a rooster feather on the warm hat, although the court is fleeing, like a beggar gang, but I always have to be decent, so I have to continue to wear my training uniform and pretend to be a big-headed soldier. Guangxu, who has been going back and forth, has become a little interested in my alternative dress, God is pitiful, I don't want to have anything to do with this destined Emperor Jingjing, if I let the old ladies know, I don't want to be in the Qing Dynasty, and it won't make me feel better. So today I went to Cixi again to say goodbye, by the way with the map and telegram, looking at the telegram on the Zheng Zheng oath and the progress of the several Qinwang troops marked on the map, Cixi is also overjoyed, only one hundred and eighty miles away from the capital, but there are three roads around fifty miles, which is much stronger than the situation of the one hundred and ten imperial guards who just left the palace, at least plus my four routes of army will not be frightened by dozens of invulnerable senior brothers.

It is estimated that there will be a fast horse into the city in the afternoon, I told Cixi that I plan to put the two detachments on the periphery, in case the situation changes, I can cooperate with the outside to protect Luan from danger, Cixi deeply thought, in fact, she also had deep doubts about me, a Han merchant and local tyrant leader, so I divided the troops into two places, but it was convenient for her to mediate from the middle, and my initiative to give up the self-respect of supporting the army slightly alleviated her suspicions. I knew that I had to take heavy medicine to be effective, and when I returned to the headquarters, I immediately dispatched troops, Xiao Mingfeng and Wu Luzhen's first and fourth detachments had rested for three days, the wounded had been properly settled, and the ammunition of the two detachments was still sufficient, so after I assigned them four Makqin, they went on the road according to the plan. Out of the county seat, first to the south, then around Fengtai, from the south of the capital to the east.

At the same time, Cixi was also monitored by the eunuchs, and was very satisfied to learn that half of the troops had left the city. In fact, Yuan Shikai was more satisfied, after listening to my advice, the three towns and one association of the new army that stayed in Fengtai can now be called a strengthened town, and most of the remnants of Dong Xiangfu, Yulu, and Li Bingheng who fled in the capital fled south along the Jinghan line, and were just intercepted and disarmed by the first association along the main road, and then selected their youth and strength, disrupted and reorganized, and for a time a division of 5,000 people expanded to more than 30,000 guns, and even Makqin, Madsen, and Green fast artillery collected dozens of guns, and more than a dozen camp guns and field artillery were also collected. Duan Qirui, the commander of the Three Associations who stayed behind, was crooked, Yuan Shikai learned of the situation, and hurriedly asked the Second Association to go north from Baoding to respond, and asked Duan Qirui to withdraw to Cangzhou, Dezhou for training as soon as possible with the remnants of the contained soldiers. As for the rescue of the living Yuan Shikai planned to come by himself, so he continued to march to the northwest from Baoding with Cao Kun's association, and now he has reached the southeast of Huailai County, Shanxi Governor Yuxian knows that he is in a catastrophe, and will not let go of this last straw, and points up several battalion heads of the governor's yamen to travel day and night, one early and one late, just to meet with Yuan Shikai's new army on the official road in Huailai.

"Lord Yuan, you are also under the order of King Qin, right? It's not slow. "Yuxian knows his own affairs, if he asks Yuan Shikai to ask this sentence first, it is not easy to shirk the sin of leaving his post without permission.

"Ah, that's right, Xiang Cheng was shocked to learn that the capital had fallen and the holy car was covered with dust, and he got a telegram from the Queen Mother and the Holy Shangxi Hunting Huai, and recruited me to lead the department to come to King Qin." Yuan Shikai saw through the mind of the old boy Yuxian at a glance, and naturally coped with it.

"Ah, I see, I also received a telegram from the palace, recruiting me Shanxi Jian'er to enter the king of Beijing Qin, my ministry received the emperor's favor, after receiving the telegram, I was anxious, and I rushed to this place after the starry night. Since they are all Qinwang righteous teachers, why don't you and I enter the city together? ”

"I don't dare to ask for ears." Yuan Shikai didn't need to tie this beam for no reason, so he borrowed the donkey from the slope. When the two of them marched into the arms together, the second detachment temporarily ordered to take care of the prisoner of war camp was handing over the camp affairs with the recruit training team, hundreds of little devils had been trained to obey the suit, and it only took half a day to set up camp in the northwest valley under the guidance of bayonets, and now the little devils are closer to the soldiers of other countries, and after the defeat, they more consciously accept the fate of prisoners of war, and will not engage in performance art such as jade crushing and disembowelment at every turn. Coupled with the collective massacre of the rebel officers and non-commissioned officers that night, these simple-minded little devils understood that they had fallen into the hands of a group of people who were not easy to mess with, these wicked people were not very good-tempered, they killed people at every turn, and they also liked to hang the dead on the city tower to dry for the New Year, so there was no danger to their lives, and it was better not to provoke the guys wearing blue uniforms with bayonets and steel helmets. And on the northeast grassland that they couldn't see, He Laoba and the brothers of the artillery team had leveled the grassland, laid reflectors, and looked in the direction of Jinan, and three huge airships linked together were poking their heads out of the depths of the clouds little by little.

"Lao Wu, you are both civil and military, what is the intention of the boss to let us avoid the new army and other officers and soldiers and go straight to Langfang? also made a trick, there is really a boss, do you plan to sing a Ganlu Temple? "Xiao Heizi is already suffocated, the first two battles are almost picking up sticks, and there is no brilliance in winning this kind of battle, is it difficult? And that's where you can talk about the difficulty factor, which is basically negative. finally rested for three days, but got a task to run away, can you prevent him from harboring fire?

"It doesn't matter what you sing, the boss seems to have a source of information that we didn't even realize about, otherwise he could know the route and time of Lafayette and the emperor out of the palace so easily? So there must be something important this time, boss, you know, there is no profit and no early, there is no big deal, can you send our two detachments out? Although Wu Luzhen has not been here for a long time, she is still very confident in the boss's prediction of the enemy.

"Come on, listen to your old Wu, maybe there will be a big fish. When it's time to let He Laoba and them repent of their deaths, see if he still uses the adjutant knife to pull it. By the way, the eighth child came back this time and slept with his head bored, I heard that he drank a lot, and he also smoked Xiao Maozi with a horsewhip, and he didn't go to see the boss when he came back, I heard Xiao Maozi find his uncle to complain and come here. It's strange that the boss let He Laoba rest for three days, and he didn't scold him. Do you know why? ”

"I don't even know what you're talking about, I'm guessing where to go. Don't worry about this stubble, let's see if there is anything left behind, I'll take four teams to take the lead, and your brother will help us with the queen of the palace. ”

"Okay, I'll take care of the rags, but I'm okay, I'll really smoke him if there's a dead dog, don't you want to stop me, so I have to establish some prestige." Wu Luzhen didn't say anything, and knew in his heart that Xiao Heizi hadn't rushed to make a big deal these few times, and it was not good to explain it to the brothers below, in fact, he didn't do it, he just nodded and coped with it.

The small round hat on the top of Kurinenko's head always fell off, he held the hat with his hand, and cursed the sewing woman, those women in the Qing Dynasty used needle and thread, I don't know why their hat band looks very strong, but he opened the thread after taking it for a long time, and he pulled the reins while pressing the hat with one hand, which was very embarrassing. Looking at the big box on the carriage beside him, he swallowed greedily, the jewelry in his arms can be exchanged for about 8,000 to 10,000 rubles, of course, after returning to China, it is enough to drink vodka for 30 years, and when he can come back from this mission, he will strive to visit the Forbidden City again, so that he can probably drink vodka with caviar for 30 years. Kurinenko suddenly had an idea, if he snatched a box, would he be able to let his three children also lie in the cream mushroom soup and take a bath? Forget it, I still don't want to, I put my hat into the saddle bag, took out the wine bottle in my arms, and poured a mouthful of two pots, although it is not as good as vodka, but it is also a gentleman's wine, much better than the whiskey that the British provided yesterday, it is simply a bottle of vodka mixed into the bucket, and it has no taste, and even his three-year-old daughter can be called wine. He was thinking about the pros and cons of all kinds of wine, and suddenly he was kicked under the horse from the side, and before he could understand it, he was wiped on the neck with a bayonet, and he just poured the second pot head along the wound and the blood flowed to the ground, which made Chen Cheng nauseous for a while, complaining that half of the Cossack blood was alcohol? Natura covered the wound, the smell of blood and wine faded a little, the disgusting hand was not slow, the jewelry and silver ingots he took out were put in his pocket, and even the gilded cross was not spared, and after a while, a Russian road that even a beggar was too lazy to turn was lying on his back in the ditch on the side of the road, and the Don hippo was still good, holding the reins, Chen Cheng hung a straw stick and returned to the woods gracefully, this was already the third patrol to be erased. By the time it was time for the Cossacks to lie down beside the fire with wine bottles, only a few French officers and soldiers and the American ** officers sent to monitor were still looking at each other's harvest in the capital, exchanging them from time to time, and a small group of Italian soldiers had already packed up their dinner plates and returned to the tent to rest, and the moaning sound came from time to time, God knows what these Roman descendants were playing in the tent. The French shook their heads with disdain, the Americans shrugged their shoulders, no one meddled, and certainly no one noticed that none of the patrol cavalry sent out had returned. French Army Lieutenant Colonel Loire sat in his own tent, the Moroccan guards next to him brought coffee and supper, but the coffee was only a small cup, it seemed that the supply of military supplies was a little tight, but these still made those big people have a headache, he always had some hairiness in his heart after supper, as if he was hungry, the crumbs of bread he had just eaten on the table told him that hunger was an illusion, but this feeling of emptiness haunted him like a ghost. Am I worried about the safety of this trip? Loire was amused to think about it, except for Admiral Nie, who died at the hands of those short Japanese soldiers, the Qing army was inferior to the natives of Black Africa, and those religious lunatics were brave, but they were as stupid as the religious armies he had encountered in Asia Minor and Indochina*, and fighting them was a simple massacre, and it would not do him any harm to his health except that he had poured some foul smell of blood into his nose. There was some commotion outside, as if there were still fights, these damned ragtags, they should be court-martialed, "Maybe I should go out and let those American cowboys, Russian bandits, and Italian sissies see the demeanor of a real French soldier and let him learn to obey military discipline." He hurriedly put on his overcoat and arranged his gun and sword, but when he had just opened the curtain of the tent and was about to open his mouth to call the guards to serve him, he could only see a ridiculously long rifle muzzle that Oriental dwarfs often carried, and an Asian face with an ugly black military cap and brown dust scarf, which of course became the last scene that the personable lieutenant colonel saw on earth before he saw God.
