"Whew." The special train slowly drove out of the platform with thick smoke, and when he saw the special train leave, Yi Zhi's mood was a little complicated, and he hoped that he was overly worried, and if it was unfortunate, the officers and men on the special train would definitely be more than lucky.

There were actually not many officers and soldiers on the special train, only one battalion, and at his suggestion, Song Zhihuan led the other two battalions to set off one step earlier in a troop carrier in front of him, and there was only so much he could do.

Looking at the special train slowly driving out of the station, Su Shun was solemn, it was only 500 kilometers, and the military region dispatched six regiments of troops to patrol along the way, but Yi Zhizhi still let the special train go empty, this move is tantamount to a serious distrust of the Northwest Military Region, and it seems that the military and political officers of the entire northwest will carry out large-scale adjustments this time.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "If it is a large-scale rectification, will it affect the stability of the northwest?" ”

"Don't worry, as long as the troops are not chaotic, there will be no turmoil." Yi Zhizu said slowly, and as he spoke, he casually ordered: "Let the dispatch room send a report, the special train has left on time." ”

The dispatch room along the line naturally has to notify a few hours in advance, so that the trains along the line can avoid early, and it is impossible to let the special train avoid waiting.

Zhao Liewen said: "Do military subdivisions and state offices also have to send reports? ”

"Of course." Yi Zhishu nodded, and then changed his head, "Idle is idle, go and inspect the agricultural irrigation area of Hami." As he spoke, he turned around and said as he walked: "Order Lu Junfeng to be on standby, and Guan Dafu will withdraw the alert patrol troops along the line and stand by in Hami." ”

Withdraw the number of alert patrols along the route? Isn't this going to go? Su Shun was secretly puzzled, and hurriedly stepped forward and said tentatively: "If the special train arrives safely ......?" ”

"Arrived safely?" Yi Zhixiang glanced at him, "The matter has come to this point, and we can only let the Northwest military and political officials come to Hami to greet him in person, and we can wait with peace of mind." ”

Gong Ning, military district, headquarters.

In the office, Zhu Shanhai, deputy commander in his early fifties, and Liu Changxing, deputy chief of staff, stood in front of a large map of Asia with a cigarette in his hand, and looked all the way west from the railway line in Gongning.

In fact, with the acquisition of Alaska, Kamchatka, and Siberia by Yuanqi, and the annexation of the Wa Kingdom and Korea, the two northwestern provinces have become the most important military frontier of the Qing Dynasty, and once the railway is opened, it will become an important economic corridor, and the position of the two northwestern provinces will become very important.

On the other hand, because of the opening of the Eurasian Railway, the two northwestern provinces not only have a transcendent status, but also have independent capital, over the years, the northwest has actually formed a tail of the big trend, with the current pattern of Europe and West Asia, whether it is Europe Russia and England, or West Asia Persia, Ottoman, will inevitably be strongly supported.

"Tuk tuk" There was a soft knock on the door, one long and two short, he turned around and commanded softly, "Come in." ”

Liu Changxing, the deputy chief of staff of about forty, immediately closed the door after coming in, and said softly: "The Hami Military Division has called, the special train has already departed from Hami, and the car departed at a quarter past seven. ”

The special train that he heard had already departed, and Zhu Shanhai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "Have you checked with the railway company and the Governor's Palace?" ”

"It's all verified." Liu Changxing said: "I heard that Zuobutang is on his way to the military region. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Shanhai completely relieved his heart and chuckled: "Our prince, still knows that there are tigers in the mountains, and prefers to go to the tiger mountain, and he knows that someone in Gongning is trying to assassinate him, so he still can't wait to come to ......." ”

Liu Changxing hesitated and said, "Will this be a fraud?" ”

"Don't worry, let's get busy first." Zhu Shanhai waved his hand, now that he is ready to fly, he has to send it, even if there is fraud, there is no possibility of stopping, besides, even if there is fraud, what if it is fraud? It's better to be able to blow up Yi Zhicontent, if Yi Zhicontent is not on the special train, as long as the special train is blown up, the two northwestern provinces also have no way out, even the Queen Mother and the Emperor have no way out!

Thinking of this, he groaned for a while, then went to the door, pulled the door, and commanded, "Prepare your horses and go to the governor's palace." ”

Ansi, Kokand, Governor's Palace.

In the palatial office, Feng Renxuan looked at the excerpts sent from all over the province one after another, and guessed that Yi Zhizhi was content to inspect the northwest, and the focus of Anxi Province was to send the news, and as soon as the news came, he ordered local officials to actively prepare to deal with it, especially in terms of public security, people's livelihood, education, and folk customs.

He knew very well that the most important thing in the northwest is nothing more than two points of military and assimilation, needless to say, military has always been the top priority of the two northwest provinces, assimilation, the same is the top priority, the northwest large-scale immigration, intermarriage of various ethnic groups, new-style schools, free education and other measures, the purpose is actually assimilation.

Whether it is military or assimilation, there is only one purpose for the long-term consolidation of the northwest.

Zheng Yingguan, the governor of Anxi, looked anxious, and even saved the report, and walked into the room in a hurry, "My lord, Gong Ning called, and found a suspected assassination organization....... ”

Assassination organization? Feng Renxuan was stunned for a moment, put down the fold in his hand, and said, "The Xinjiang Governor's Mansion reported?" ”

"It's not." Zheng Yingguan said: "Gong Ning blocked the news. It is said that more than 30 of the Assassins were killed, all of them from Andijan, and a large number of guns and ammunition were found, as well as several mortars. ”

Feng Renxuan was shocked, this is a shocking case, Gong Ning actually blocked the news directly, what does it mean? Suspect that he instigated and instructed it? He said in a deep voice: "The news is true? ”

"It has been verified, and this is indeed the case." Zheng Yingguan nodded, "The incident happened in the early hours of yesterday morning, and a large number of troops were dispatched, and the momentum was huge. ”

Such a big matter, Zuo Zongtang actually didn't report it to Anxi, this could never be negligence, but intentional, Feng Renxuan frowned and was silent, and soon, he asked, "What about the prince?" Still in Hami? ”

"The prince has already set off from Hami to Gongning." Zheng Yingguan replied, and after speaking, he said a little anxiously: "We can't carry this black cauldron, and we can't afford to carry it, the top priority is to identify it as soon as possible to prove our innocence." ”

Feng Renxuan said slowly: "This matter is not clear, the way is not clear, and it can only be described more and more blackly." ”

Hearing him say this, Zheng Yingguan was suddenly a little dumbfounded, "This is a shocking case, if you can't prove your innocence, I don't know how many heads will fall to the ground." ”

"Those who are clear are self-purifying, why do they need to prove themselves?" Feng Renxuan said unhurriedly: "Besides, how can you prove your innocence in this matter?" Seeing that the other party had an anxious look on his eyebrows, he continued: "What kind of person is the prince, how can he be easily blinded, there is no need to worry. ”

Zheng Yingguan said: "I'm afraid that Zuo Jigao is trying to shirk his responsibility and deliberately lead to trouble." ”

"Even if it leads to disaster, it's not a big deal, there's no need to worry." Feng Renxuan waved his hand, looking confident, in fact, he had already broken Zuo Zongtang's mind, which was nothing more than to show that the two were not compatible.

If the governors of the two northwestern provinces have a good relationship, then it is truly feared!
