Chapter 540: The Insider

Gao Yongqing watched the battlefield a few hundred meters outside the city gate.

Although the name is "Yongqing", Gao Yongqing definitely belongs to the most restless grassroots of the Qing Dynasty, in fact, he is the big leader of the Sect of Divorce, and has been engaged in spreading the Sect for generations, and has been preparing to rebel for more than 100 years.

The Ligua Sect is a branch of the Bagua Sect system, and this Bagua Sect can be said to be the most legendary underground sect of the Qing Dynasty.

If it is said that the largest cult organizations in modern China are the "Eastern Lightning" and the "Three Redemptions of Christ" that belong to the Christian color, then the cults with the worst influence in the history of the Republic of China are the "Consistent Dao" and the "Tongshan Society," which have long colluded with the Japanese, then this gossip cult is the cult organization of the Qing generation with the most far-reaching influence and the widest spread.

The legendary patriarch of the Bagua Sect is Li Tingyu, but this person can be said to be a character who combines history and legend, and his real founder is Liu Zuochen, a native of Shanxian County, Shandong, who accepted disciples and set up a religion according to the organization of the Bagua Diagram, and has become the leading major sect in North China for three generations, but the Bagua Sect in this period has no obvious political color, with the purpose of preaching and collecting money, and even openly buying officials, and the head of the sect has served as a magistrate and a governor, but in the Qianlong period, it has become a religion with the goal of opposing the Qing Dynasty.

The uprising of Wang Lun Qingshui Sect in the Qianlong period belonged to the popular rebellion launched by the Bagua Sect system, and the Tianli Sect change in the eighteenth year of Jiaqing was also a variant of the Bagua Sect, so for a long time, the Bagua Sect has been subjected to the most brutal suppression by the official, and there have been many executions and exiles, but it has also pushed the mythological color within this religion to the limit.

In the same year of Xian, the Bagua Sect in Henan and Shandong rebelled, and the most famous one was Song Jingshi, and the later Boxers also had a deep connection with the Bagua Sect, even to the Republic of China. There is still a variant of the Bagua Sect of the Sage Dao.

And the same Hexagram branch in this Bagua Sect system is the most rebellious branch of the Bagua Sect, and the Gao clan has been in charge of the Ligua line for a long time.

Gao Yongqing is such a leader and dictator of the underground sect, his grandfather and father both died in the iron prison of the Qing Dynasty, but for the astonishing wealth and power, he still continued to hold the power of the sect of Guide Mansion.

He glanced at the group of people who were tied up tightly below, and laughed: "Chu Zhenyun, my good son-in-law, are you willing to follow the lifeless old mother to survive this catastrophe!"

The one who took the lead took a sip. Then he scolded: "Chu someone has no eyes, and if he falls for you, it will be enough to harm the prefect and his colleagues, and he will be in the same stream with you, which is absolutely impossible!"

Gao Yongqing smiled and said, "Good son-in-law, I will marry all my daughters to you." Aren't you grateful for the pictorial? Now follow me, old Taishan, to break the Guide Mansion and spend all the 9.4 billion people in the world going to the Promised Land......"

What he said was the doctrine of the Bagua Sect, but although Chu Zhenyun made a big mistake, he was an old cadre in the Taizhou period, and he was sincere to Liu Chang: "Even if Chu dies, he will not fulfill your wish!"

Gao Yongqing immediately sneered: "Since you are obsessed, then send it to the city and behead it, I am attracted by my mother, but I don't have a good son-in-law like you!"

He continued to persuade Chu Zhenyun: "Zhenyun." Now it's the world of our hexagram, and now the red thieves within a hundred miles of De have been broken by my hexagram, and Shandong also has my brothers in the sect to respond, Lianke eight counties, the world is already the world of our hexagram, why are you obsessed!"

He persuaded him again as a father-in-law: "It's just your death, who will take care of the child in Hong'er's belly?" You don't think about yourself, you have to think about Hong'er and the child. ”

Although Chu Zhenyun was an iron-clad man, he had to ponder for a while when he heard this. He has now made a fatal mistake. I don't know how many comrades-in-arms and colleagues have fallen in a pool of blood because of their mistakes, but he has to face a difficult fact. That was the poor and hateful woman, and the child in her womb.

He felt that his head was about to explode, and he couldn't help but look up, wanting to take a look at Guide City, but he could only see Gao Yongqing looking sincere, but he didn't know how many dangerous eyes were hidden, he took a deep breath, and then took a deep breath: "When I arrived at Guide, others told me about Zhang Patrol's defense of Suiyang, and they all said that he kept the Tang Dynasty well, and he was almost perfect, but he was too ruthless to his wife and concubine, I thought so......"

At this time, Chu Zhenyun roared at Gao Yongqing: "But now I understand, sometimes the ruthless party is really affectionate, old Taishan, chop me!"

Seeing that Chu Zhenyun was soft and hard and didn't eat, Gao Yongqing became angry: "Pull it to the city, pull it out for me, and chop it directly, I will not have this son-in-law!"

He continued: "Tell everyone, give me a storm, continue to attack, no matter how many lives you fill in, you must take Guide, and when we take Guide City, we will join forces with Liu Gou to conquer Zhengzhou together, and then sweep the world......"

It's just that he finally recited a mantra in the Bagua Sect: "No mother, vacuum hometown......"

"No mother, vacuum hometown!"

Thousands of congregants flocked to Guide City with this mantra, and there were many more cities.

"Since the beginning of the country, this rebellion has been the largest and the largest."

It was Hu Linyi who said this, he is now Liu Chang's cabinet premier, so many secret documents within the Hongjun have been made public to him, and he has these few reports from Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi, Guangdong, and Guangxi in his hand.

Although he, the prime minister, is only in charge of economic affairs, and Liu Chang is directly responsible for the national defense and military affairs, he now has to say to his staff: "Shocking, shocking, not much inferior to the rebellion of the heavenly kingdom in the past!"

The reason for the formation of this round of rebellion was largely due to the vacuum after the new regime entered the country, in which these sects and associations were severely restricted by the Qing government, but now they are taking advantage of this vacuum to develop their own power.

In these memorandas and documents, it can be seen that Henan and Shandong were the places where the rebellion was most severe, and not only did the traditional anti-government Bagua religious system in history make waves in it, but also some sect parties that had not been paid attention to in the past were involved, such as Shandong's army, and Liangguang was an area where the Heaven and Earth Society and Hongmen were flooded.

It's just that Li Hongzhang on the other side has his own opinion: "Hu Xiang, I think that although it is said that it is flooding and the flood is monstrous, but with my emperor shining thousands of miles, it is not difficult to calm down the bandits, but it is just ......."

"Just what?" Hu Linyi glanced at this student of Zeng Guofan, and secretly felt a kind of sadness.

His teacher Zeng Guofan has become a tool for Liu Jiehu to use politically since he was captured by the Hong Army, Liu Chang knows how to use the surplus value of the commander of the Hunan army, and this Taoist gentleman also lacks enough integrity, it is said that after Lu Ziyun only used a little means, this Zeng Disheng was completely apostatized politically.

The fact is not that it is as simple as a complete political apostasy, but that this Zeng Disheng has completely betrayed himself, and he is now preaching to the civil and military generals of the old Qing Dynasty under the surveillance of the Hong Army.

Compared with Li Hongzhang, Zeng Guofan can be said to be well-behaved, and can even be said to be of high character, at least he will not cling to anything, but this Li Hongzhang Li Shaoquan has been very active since he entered the cabinet, and what he said in his mouth was those new words, and he always stood on the same position as Liu Jiehu, and even to the point that if Liu Jiehu said that the fart was fragrant, he Li Hongzhang would also write 10,000 words "fart fragrance theory".

This is also a Jinshi of the Qing Dynasty, why is he so shameless!

However, in the cabinet, Hu Linyi had to seek Li Hongzhang's help, and as he did now, he had to listen to Li Hongzhang's opinion.

You must know that he did not bring his full set of staff in Hubei to Hangzhou, his staff was either not ashamed of his surrender to the red thief, or unwilling to leave Hubei, or Liu Chang's personal preferences, or other reasons, only a few people came to Hangzhou, and he faced a completely unfamiliar cabinet team.

Moreover, although he is the prime minister of the cabinet, the powers of the cabinet are very limited, and he is still facing the struggle for power of the ministers, and the main opponents are the overseers of the provinces, and he has come to this point with extraordinary perseverance.

At least in those provinces that have been completely controlled, the cabinet has enough power to make Hu Linyi nostalgic for the position of prime minister, as long as he is given another three or five years, he will be a real minister of power in the Great Xia Kingdom, but he must take food from the hearts of those overseers, and he needs Li Hongzhang's support in this regard.

Li Hongzhang immediately had his own statement: "Hu Xiang, if you think about it, there have been cult uprisings in the north as far as Shanxi and Shaanxi in the south, and even in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, with hundreds of thousands of people and dozens of counties.

Hu Linyi had already understood: "You mean there is someone behind this?" ”

"Yes!" Li Hongzhang immediately replied: "Not only is there someone behind him, but he is also a foreigner!"

Hu Linyi has already understood: "Russians? ”
