Because Hong Xiuquan believed that the word "emperor" of "God" could not be transgressed, there was only a "king" in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and there was no emperor. The four kings of the southeast, northwest and the winged king are all princes, and even Hong Xiuquan is only a "heavenly king". The king of heaven, Hong Xiuquan, is long lived, and the king of the east, Yang Xiuqing, is 9,000 years old. This alone can understand Yang Xiuqing's status in the Taiping Army.

Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, took Wei Ze into the mansion of Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east. In addition to the guards, there are also female officials and maids in the East Palace. Seeing Nanwang Feng Yunshan coming in, the female officials stepped forward to salute. Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, asked Wei Ze to wait outside, and he went straight into the living room where Yang Xiuqing was. Wei Ze simply stood in the courtyard, his eyes drooping slightly, completely oblivious to the women. This is not Wei Ze's hypocrisy, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom implemented the "Yong'an System" in 1851, and the Heavenly Kingdom promulgated a series of institutional measures. For Weesel, much of this is understandable. For example, the sacred treasury system, the military merit system, and the separate camps for men and women. are very important measures in wartime.

It's just that the true nature of the peasant uprising is also clear in these systems, for example, Hong Xiuquan ordered the troops to divide the men and women into battalions, but he announced in the Yong'an system, "The harem is called Niangniang, and the concubine is called Wang Niang." That is, the concubines of the king of heaven are generally called "Niangniang", and the concubines of the five kings of the east, west, south, north and wing are commonly called "Wang Niang". At this time, Hong Xiuquan and the five kings had wives and concubines, and they lived with their wives and concubines.

In the smallholder system, the presence or absence of privileges represents the level of status. If the superior does not have privileges, he will only make the people below laugh. Weser can understand this, but it doesn't mean that he can accept it. Moreover, Wei Ze grew up in the city where the large shipping enterprises in the north are located, and the local beauties are tall, with apricot eyebrows, straight noses, and fair skin. This is the type that Wei Ze likes, the women of the prince's family, Wei Ze really can't bear to look at it.

What Wei Ze didn't know was that he was standing in the courtyard with such a calm demeanor, but it attracted the attention of Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east and Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, and others in the house. Originally, after Feng Yunshan and Yang Xiuqing finished talking about Wei Ze's grain robbery, they were ready to go out and call Wei Ze in. As a result, when I looked out of the window, I saw Wei Ze standing simply, completely relaxed, and ignoring the women who appeared in the courtyard from time to time. This made Feng Yunshan quite surprised.

19-year-olds, even if they are shy, will only deliberately avoid women. Wei Ze's attitude of turning a blind eye has a strange sense of maturity. Feng Yunshan has always been in charge of missionary work, and he has seen thousands of people, but he has never seen a few such calm and ordinary youths.

Seeing Feng Yunshan's abnormal appearance, Yang Xiuqing also looked out. After looking at it for a while, Yang Xiuqing chuckled lightly and said to the guards, "Call Wei Ze outside to come in." ”

Wei Ze followed the guards into the living room, and saw three princes in yellow robes in the house. One of them was naturally Feng Yunshan, and the bright-eyed young man in the center was none other than Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East. Sitting on the other side of Yang Xiuqing was the winged king Shi Dakai. Yang Xiuqing is 28 years old this year, while Shi Dakai is even younger, only 21 years old. Compared with the mature and strong Yang Xiuqing, Shi Dakai is undoubtedly slightly immature. His whole person looked as sharp as an unsheathed sword.

After Wei Ze stepped forward to salute, Yang Xiuqing opened his mouth to ask about the road to the north.

"Back to the king of the east, the Manchu Qing blocked all the roads, and his subordinates avoided the roads and walked through the mountains and mountains." Wei Ze said bluntly. Then he recounted the process of this sortie.

After listening to Wei Ze's introduction, they walked around to the back of the Qing army by walking in an unpopulated place, and Yang Xiuqing and Shi Dakai were a little disappointed. The fulcrum of the Qing army's siege of Yong'an is the north and south camps, if you can send a large force to go around the back of the Qing army along the road of Wei Ze's attack, and when the Qing army sends out the Beida camp, it is very likely to break the Beida camp. As soon as the Beidaying camp is broken, the encirclement of the Qing army will also completely collapse. But Wei Ze made it clear that he avoided the checkpoints set up outside the Qing army's camp and chose a deserted area. Even if a large force was sent to follow the road opened by Wei Ze, if they wanted to sneak attack the Qing army's camp, they had to break through the Qing army's outpost first.

Even if Wei Ze said it clearly, Shi Dakai still couldn't help but ask: "Can't you send a large team of people to ambush from behind the Qing Demon?" ”

Wei Ze replied seriously: "Most of the subordinates have already tried any place that is easy to walk. To the north, indeed, there is no passage through the army. The subordinates robbed the grain transportation team of the Qing army this time, and I think the Qing army will also strengthen its defense. If you go again, I'm afraid that you will encounter the Qing army on those roads. ”

Shi Dakai didn't seem to be persuaded by Wei Ze, but Wei Ze said it to this point, and Shi Dakai was silent for the time being.

Yang Xiuqing didn't rush to interject, he subconsciously pursed his lips slightly, and after thinking for a while, he asked about the mountain situation of Dayao Mountain. Fortunately, after traveling through the mountains several times, Wei Ze was able to answer Yang Xiuqing's questions in a more orderly manner. From Yang Xiuqing's question, Wei Ze could hear that Yang Xiuqing had an unusual sensitivity to the terrain. Although he didn't know who was stronger in terms of the ability to discern the direction, Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East and Zhang Yingchen, Wei Ze's subordinate, what Wei Ze could be sure of was that in terms of using the terrain to arrange troops and command the battle, Yang Xiuqing could definitely go out of Zhang Yingchen's ten streets.

The answer was only a matter of about ten minutes, and Weser had already exhausted all his ability. Because he had not commanded a large army to fight, Yang Xiuqing's several problems made Wei Ze quite difficult. After finally coping with Yang Xiuqing's question, Wei Ze felt that it was more difficult than fighting a small battle.

Yang Xiuqing didn't make any comments after asking, he said to Wei Ze: "Does Wei Sima have anything else to say?" ”

This is clearly preparing to let Wei Ze go, Wei Ze hurriedly said: "The subordinates were ordered by the King of the East to attack, and now they are returning to the King of the East." ”

"I see, Wesma has worked hard." Yang Xiuqing replied with a straight face.

Wei Ze continued: "The subordinates have found out the hard work of the brothers, so I ask the East King to promote the brothers who are not the chief of the army among the brothers who attacked this time to the commander of the army. ”

"Oh?" Yang Xiuqing was quite surprised by Wei Ze's request, and he couldn't help frowning slightly. Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, was also very strange about Wei Ze's strange request. However, the Winged King Shi Dakai looked as usual, just staring at Wei Ze tightly.

Yang Xiuqing opened his mouth and said: "Wei Sima, if it comes to military merits, I am afraid that these brothers may not all be promoted to Wu Commander. ”

Wei Ze replied seriously: "Qi Qi Dong Wang." The subordinates asked themselves to continue to lead troops to harass the Qing army's grain route. This time, the king of the east was invited to promote the brothers, firstly, to reassure the brothers' hearts, and secondly, to be able to be promoted to the commander of the army, and to receive more grain and grass when he sent out the army. ”

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom practiced a system of public ownership and sharing. The holy treasury is the public treasury, the treasury, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is given by God with a qiē property, and at the beginning it was stipulated that only God could be sanctified, so the public treasury was called the holy treasury. The living needs of the generals and soldiers were provided by the public treasury. The types and standards of its supply, grain, oil, and salt, all of which are supplied in equal amounts, regardless of age, are all provided in equal quantities, and the daily share of meat supply below the king of heaven varies equally. When Wei Ze sent out his troops, according to the rank of the army, the army commander could receive more food than ordinary soldiers.

Yang Xiuqing didn't answer immediately, he stared at Wei Ze for a while before asking, "Wei Sima only promoted his brother to be the commander of the army, but he didn't say who could be Sima." I don't know if Wei Sima thinks that the merits of your subordinate captains are outstanding. ”

Hearing these rather harsh words, the 37-year-old Feng Yunshan didn't say anything, and the 21-year-old Wing King Shi Dakai couldn't help but chuckle. Yang Xiuqing's meaning is very straightforward, this is a very implicit accusation that Wei Ze wants to promote himself. When Wei Ze saw Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, he immediately hurried to become an official, and Shi Dakai obviously felt a little funny.

Wei Ze was unmoved, he replied with a straight face: "Qi Qi Dong Wang, whether Wu Chang should be promoted to Sima, that is in charge of you Dong Wang, and his subordinates are Sima, so naturally you can't say anything about this." The subordinates are all old brothers in Guangxi, and without them, the subordinates will not be able to fight this battle, so the subordinates don't want them to go. Now that Chinese New Year's Eve is a few days away, his subordinates feel that the big leaders of the Qing Demon will deliver a lot of food and salary in order to reward their subordinates. At this time, if you rush to ambush, I am afraid that you will still have a chance to succeed. On this march, the grain and grass received by his subordinates from the Shengku branch were exhausted along the way, and if his subordinates could be promoted to captains, they could receive more. What's more, the subordinates worked hard to kill the enemy, and the subordinates felt that with their merits and the hard work of marching and transporting, they could be promoted to captain. ”

After listening to Wei Ze's self-defense, Shi Dakai didn't laugh out loud this time, he just looked at Wei Ze and then at Yang Xiuqing.

Wei Ze was actually a little nervous in his heart, but what he said was in his heart, this was a good time for an ambush, and it would be a pity if he let go of this time period.

Yang Xiuqing didn't answer immediately, just quietly thinking about something. Just when Wei Ze felt that Yang Xiuqing would refuse, he heard Yang Xiuqing say: "Wei Sima, since I have promulgated the military merit system, you, as Sima, naturally have to report the meritorious brothers." It's just that you want all your brothers to be promoted to captain, but you can't. Since you have already walked that path, I will promote you to the rank of commander, and replenish you tomorrow. These days you concentrate on exploring the way north, and it would be best if you could find a way for the army to pass through guò. If they can't find it, at least they will hit the grain routes of the Qing army and make them unable to eat and sleep. If you can get back the things from this army, I will promote all the brothers you mentioned this time to captains. ”

Before seeing Yang Xiuqing, Wei Ze hoped that what he would take was to hit the Qing army's grain route. Either way, Weeser wanted to be able to move as freely as possible. At this time, he received Yang Xiuqing's order, and even though the efforts to promote the brothers' official positions were not achieved immediately, Wei Ze was promoted to the official position. As the commander of the pawn, Wei Ze can arrange subordinate positions. Of course, this is also Yang Xiuqing's final order, Wei Ze didn't say anything anymore, he bowed and saluted, "Follow the will of King Dong!" ”

Wei Ze was about to retreat, but he heard Feng Yunshan ask, "Brother Wei, since you can make such a contribution, I remember that you also had the credit of winning eight forts in a row before you were promoted to Sima." Since you are the heroes of our Taiping Army, I don't know what you think about defeating the Qing Demon? ”

Wei Ze chuckled in his heart, Feng Yunshan did not express his opinion on Wei Ze's military construction on the road, which really did not mean that Feng Yunshan did not listen to Wei Ze's words. This is clearly asking Wei Ze to repeat what Fang just said to Yang Xiuqing.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom now has about 10,000 capable warriors. According to the military system of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, five people were in the army, and the army commander was in charge; Five Wu is two, and two Sima are unified; Four taels are pawns, and they are unified by the chief of pawns, and there are subordinate officials at the beginning of the pawn, and there are one hundred and four people in one pawn. Weeser, who had been appointed for less than ten minutes, was not the officer in charge of the current one percent of the armed forces. An officer of such a level participated in the decision on the grand strategy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and Wei Ze knew very well that it was purely self-inflicted unhappiness in pointing out the country like this.

But at this time, it is not okay to pretend to be stupid. So Wei Ze said in his heart: "My subordinates are also anxious when they see the Qing army approaching Yong'an so closely. Fang Cai couldn't help but say something to King Nan. It's just that the subordinates have feelings, but they don't think about it. If there is anything wrong, I hope that the king of the east, the king of the south, and the king of the wings will advise. ”

Obviously, this attitude was recognized by Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, and Shi Dakai, the king of the wings, and even Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, did not feel that there was anything wrong with Wei Ze's attitude. Yang Xiuqing said: "If you have any strategy, just say it." ”

Seeing that it did not cause the dissatisfaction of the kings, Wei Ze repeated what Fang Cai said to Feng Yunshan.

After listening to Wei Ze's words, Yang Xiuqing and Shi Dakai's faces did not change, Yang Xiuqing nodded, "Chief Wei, you go down to rest first, and after receiving your subordinates tomorrow, you will do your best to attack." If you can snatch the Qing Demon's grain transport team again, it will be of great help to defend the city. You must do this well! ”

"Follow the will of the king of the east!" Weese replied.

"If you can snatch the demon's things again, you must bring back the gunpowder and lead first. Brother Wei, you must remember this! Yang Xiuqing couldn't help but admonish in the end.

All the explanations were for Wei Ze's attack on the grain road, and Yang Xiuqing was completely silent on Wei Ze's strategic concept of pulling the Qing army out to fight.
