Chapter 282: Chengde Urgent Edict (Second Update)
Guo Xing Ah planned to go down in Beijing, wait until Xianfeng returned to heaven, and then launch a coup d'état with Yi Xin, and be comfortable as a vested interest. And he also has a selfish plan, if Yixin coups d'état, he will only deal with the eight ministers, and Guoxing Ake is ready to give Cixi a spoonful of stew. In Guo Xing'a's eyes, Cixi is the number one sinner in modern Chinese history, whether this view is right or not, she can ask for peace of mind anyway.
However, Guo Xing'a and Yi Xin acted out discordant scenes every day, and the leisurely days of fooling foreign devils when they were free were terminated by an urgent edict from the summer resort, which completely disrupted Guo Xing's deployment. Guoxing Ah thought that even if Xianfeng didn't follow his own ideas, at most he would send himself south to suppress the bandits. If you go south, you can expand your armaments while waiting for the opportunity, which is not a big deal. Unexpectedly, Xianfeng did not play according to the routine, and directly ordered Guo Xing'a to lead the troops to Chengde to escort him, and the order was very urgent, and ordered Guo Xing'a to move as soon as he saw the order, and not to delay the move. Although Guo Xing'a will not be so well-behaved, and he has to delay the disposal of the wounded soldiers under the pretext of delaying, but there is not much time left for him.
Of course, there is also a reward for Guoxing's merits in the will, and the regimental-level generals of the department will be awarded the rank of third-rank guerrilla general, the regiment-level deputy will be awarded the rank of fourth-rank commander, the battalion-level general will be awarded the title of five-rank garrison, the battalion-level deputy will be awarded the rank of sixth-rank Xiaocai, and the company-level general title of seventh-rank general, and the officers at the platoon level will also have the rank of Xiaocai from the eighth-rank committee, and the casualties and soldiers will also have their own pensions. Guo Xing's own reward is a bit scary, from the leader of the Zhengsanpin Association to the first product of Manchuria inlaid with blue flags, given the title of Jingzhong Baturu, given the title of first-class Jingqi Nihafan, and at the same time added the rank of squire of the military department.
"My lord, let's make an appointment with Prince Gong right away! Looks like we're going to have to change our charter! After Pi Runmin waited for the imperial guards and eunuchs to receive the red envelope, he whispered in Guoxing's ear.
"Could it be that the imperial court has seen through our plans? Will I be in danger when I go to Chengde this time? Guo Xing'a was also shocked, and he was very worried that Xianfeng would do something to him.
"Your Excellency?" Xianfeng's will came too suddenly, completely unexpected, and Pi Runmin didn't think it clearly for a while.
"Mr. Huaiyuan and the miscellaneous affairs department, we don't pay enough attention to Chengde, we have too little information! I'm worried that the emperor will be jealous of my high merits. Guo Xing'a has an instinctive fear of feudal emperors, and of course, too many palace fights and assassinations in TV series are also one of the sources of his fear.
"Are you going to?" Pi Runmin felt that even if Xianfeng was a little worried about Guo Xing'a, he would not solve the problem in too drastic ways.
"How about you say that we should raise troops immediately and support Prince Gong? The emperor has lost the hearts of the people in the world, and since he has been restless, Prince Gong's popularity and ability are far better than him, if we support Prince Gong, the odds are not small. If I become a decision-making father, will it attract greater jealousy? Or can it be in power? Although Guo Xing'a and Yixin have cooperated well recently, and their personal relationship has begun to improve, he is not worried about Yixin. Xianfeng is afraid of his high achievements, and if Yixin becomes the emperor, I am afraid that he will be even more afraid of him.
"Not yet, not yet!" Pi Runmin hurriedly dissuaded. The incident of Xuanyuan Mirror last time left a big shadow on Pi Runmin, and he was also in awe of Guoxinga in his heart, and the expression on Guoxing'a when he talked about the rebellion just now shocked him even more. Guo Xing'a said very casually, as if he was discussing what to eat tonight, without the solemnity and nervousness of winning against the sky.
"Are you sure? This time the will is too urgent, and it always feels like something unusual! Chengde has good mountains and rivers, and there are soldiers who escort them, so why should I take more than 10,000 people over, it's meaningless! "Guo Xing'a may have persecution paranoia, and he always feels that Xianfeng wants to harm him.
"What we want to show the emperor, the emperor has seen it, and I think the emperor has other arrangements, and there is no need for adults to check and balance Prince Gong. The reason why I was transferred away from the adult was because I was worried that the adult would stay in Beijing and be attracted by Prince Gong. Pi Runmin calmed down and calmed down, and finally sorted out the general context.
"If you don't want me to stay in Gyeonggi, you can send me back to Gu'an, or you can transfer me south. The south side is fighting so vigorously now, it is exactly when I am needed, and there has always been a saying that I should go south! What does it mean to let me go to Chengde in a hurry, shouldn't you want to hack me and take my military power on the spot! "There is a matter of victory and seizure of power, and Goxinga now sees that everyone wants to take away his military power.
"There is no such possibility! The adults did not go to Chengde alone, but with a large army, who would dare to move you! Pi Runmin immediately denied Guo Xing's blind guess.
"Sneak around and poison me with chronic poison, and then immediately send someone to take over the army!" Guo Xing'a remembered Lu Junyi in the Water Margin again.
"My lord, you are too worried, as long as the emperor is not crazy, he will definitely dare to do this. The commander died violently, tens of thousands of troops will be in chaos, and the emperor will die! Don't talk about others, if you have an accident, Tan Shaoguang will be the first to lead troops to kill the king! Pi Runmin felt that the more Guo Xing'a thought about it, the more bizarre it became.
"There has to be a reason! Inexplicably recruited me to Chengde, don't worry! What Pi Runmin said made sense, but Guo Xing'a just felt that there was something greasy in it.
"The emperor rewarded the adults very heavily, and after Chengde was afraid of the face of the king, he was afraid that there would be a reward, which was obviously showing favor to the adults. The students felt that the emperor also wanted to win over the adults. The emperor began to pay attention to Prince Gong's threat, and the Lord is an important bargaining chip in this, once the conflict between the Emperor and Prince Gong breaks out, whoever you support will be able to win. The emperor recruited adults to Chengde, firstly, he wanted the adults to stay away from Prince Gong, and secondly, he also had the intention to accept the adults. Pi Runmin guessed for a long time and finally found the way.
"That's right, it's a knighthood and a title, and my title has grown, it seems that it's really wooing me! Hey! Arrange for someone to inform Prince Gong! Find a way to meet in the evening, there are some things to talk about! Guo Xing'a is a little more stable, but his doubts have not been completely dispelled.
Pi Runmin went to arrange a meeting with Yixin, and Guo Xing'a couldn't be idle. He is leaving, and this naval seed who went to Britain for further study must be settled quickly. The only one who has ever seen Rong Hong lead the team in the foreign market, and the main members are the orphans of the teaching team who have learned foreign languages with Rong Hong. But although these orphans have good seedlings, they are too young after all, and they can't directly lead the troops when they come back from further study, so they have to send a group of mature people. The absolute loyalty of these people must come first, and then there is the need to know some English, although Rong Hong can teach along the way, but he has to have a little foundation.
The people selected in the end are really a bit funny, if it weren't for the fact that Rong Hong would never deliberately strike a balance, Guoxing Adu suspected that these people were the result of bargaining among the various forces under his command. Among these people are the Mongolian athletes of Bo Ritu, the warriors brought by Ji Ying from outside the pass, the first wave of bandits and hungry people who defected to Cheng, and the remnants of the Taiping Army under Tan Shaoguang, and the Gu'an banner people of the Guoxing family. There are Zhou Hao, who was trembling and mutiny, and Li Gen's stupid brother Li Zhi, and Tan Shaoguang's student Kabo Xihan, who almost became a deserter, is also impressively listed. Of course, there is another heavyweight in this, which is Goxinga's cousin Botun.
Since Bo Dun was deceived by Guo Xing'a to the military camp, he began his tragic life, Tan Shaoguang tortured him like a psychopath, and he was tied to the middle of the playground to show the public. Others are good at making seven points, but if Bolton achieves nine points, he has to suffer a rattan meal. It was easy to get out of the training camp, and when he was divided into companies, no matter how bad others were, he could be a platoon commander, but Botun became an ordinary soldier. From the squad leader to the platoon commander, it seems that they are all Tan Shaoguang's relatives, and if he dies, he will do dirty work and work to death, and it is his business every time. That is, the company commander who was born in Gu'an Banner treated him well, but he could only secretly give him a little delicious food as comfort every time. Botun can't even remember how many times he escaped death before he got into the position of platoon commander. I wanted to intercede with my good brother several times, but every time I just saw Guo Xing's back, I was arrested by the company commander.
This time, he talked wildly with Yung Hong in English for half an hour, and won the first place in all the tests, so as to win the opportunity to study in the UK. Crossing the ocean is definitely not as good as following Guo Xing's promotion to make a fortune, but Bolton is really fed up, as long as he can not be deliberately repaired, let alone go to the United Kingdom, he will do it to Antarctica.
"Brother, I've been suffering lately!" After Guo Xing'a determined that Bo Dun was going to sea, he came to comfort his cousin.
"Old Five, just the two of us, I don't have to call you an adult! You tell me the truth, those people are doing me like this, did you arrange it! "When Botun saw this good brother who had been hiding from him, he was on fire.
"Brother, you Shengming, I arranged it!" Guo Xing laughed even more cheaply.
"Be sincere! How many times have I almost died, you know? Bolton burst into tears as he spoke, he had really been greatly wronged.
"It's all me, the bastard who is a younger brother, brother, you have been wronged!" Guo Xinga apologized very insincerely.
"Old Five, let's stop here! You are a person who does great things, and you use your brother and me as a target for the sake of the army, and my brother understands it! But I can't take it anymore! Will you spare me? Botun suddenly sensed the danger, didn't Guo Xinga think that Britain would still use himself as a target!
"Brother, you're suffering! Don't worry! Not in the future! The sixth and seventh are also about to grow up! "Goxinga has a new target, and Bolton can retire with honor.
"I'll go, you're too ruthless! It is said that one person gets the chicken and dog to ascend to heaven, our family is good, you are the only one who gets the Tao, and our brothers will suffer with it! "Bolton would love to beat up Goxinga.
"Just being a petty official, drinking and enjoying, it is natural for a chicken dog to ascend to heaven. But if I want to do a big career, I myself have to go to hell three times, and I can only affect my brothers! "Goxinga is finally a little serious.
"You can do it! I heard that you have just won the title, your official position has been promoted higher, and you have become our bannerman, and you will glorify your ancestors! For your sake, brother, I will endure the sin when I go back! "Botun is very simple, and like most people in this era, his family is bigger than the individual.
"Don't be guilty, this time Da Meng will lead the team, brother, you are the deputy captain, and when you come back from the UK, you will be my naval commander!" Goxinga wants to give Botun something in return, and if he abuses such a reasonable brother, he will not be human.
"It doesn't matter if you're not a commander, I don't know as much as you, you just say I'll do it!" Bolton still admires Goxinga and regards him as the hope of the family.
"I have to go to the UK for three or four years, and when I get there, I have to discuss with Da Meng, he has been outside, and he knows everything. The school you are going to is the best Royal Naval College in the UK, and you must urge everyone to study hard and try to get their stuff back. Long live Lord has a will, I will go to Chengde in half a day, I'm afraid I won't be able to send you. You still have to stay in Beijing for a while, and you have to go home empty! Say hello to the third uncle and third aunt for me! Guo Xing'a and Bo Dun said goodbye, and it was inevitable that they were a little sad.
"Got it, you can rest assured! Brother must have done a good job! Bolton made a solemn promise to Goxinga.
Guo Xing'a carefully selected more than 120 people to go to Britain for further study with Rong Hong, of course, only part of them went to study the navy, and a large number of people had to study shipbuilding, steelmaking, chemistry, medicine, and other disciplines. In a word, the number of people is smaller, but we must do our best to bring back all the knowledge of foreign devils.
Guo Xing'a and Yi Xin couldn't meet at night, because Xianfeng seemed to have a special observation, and sent a group of people to pass the decree to Yi Xin, and after the decree, he didn't leave, and followed Yi Xin like a surveillance. Yi Xin couldn't get out, of course Guo Xing'a didn't want to make trouble, and in the end, the two could only put the secret conversation on the ceremony where Yi Xin sent Guo Xing'a out of Beijing.
