Chapter 358: Clear Barriers (Second Update)
There were bursts of gunfire in the summer resort, hundreds of cavalry clashes outside the villa, and the city of Chengde was a pot of porridge. However, Pi Runmin, Zou Degui, Tan Shaoguang, Bo Ritu and a large number of high-level officials of the Gu'an Army really don't know, and the news of the chaos outside is only known to the lower levels, and the high-level people are too busy to take care of these things.
After Guo Xing'a left, Tan Shaoguang and others got together to tell some jokes, speculating whether Guo Xing'a would bring some benefits back, but Guo Xing'a walked for less than half an hour, and a group of uninvited guests disrupted their harmonious life. Monk Greenqin originally wanted to go straight to the Chinese army with the title of Mandate of Heaven, but in the face of the sentinel's unceremonious muzzle, he could only wait for the transmission. Fortunately, the monk Greenqin kept an eye on it, and only said that he was here to pass the decree, and did not report his name, otherwise Pi Runmin would definitely use the excuse that Guoxing A did not return and not let the monk Greenqin come in.
When Seng Lingqin rushed to the door of the Chinese army hall in Guoxinga with a dozen senior officers and more than forty middle- and lower-level officers, it was too late for Pi Runmin to stop him. Monk Lingqin and the senior officers were let into the hall, but all the middle and lower officers in the hall were all watched by the newly expanded guard company. Seng Lingqin suddenly visited when Guo Xing'a was away, and brought a large number of officers with him, Pi Runmin and Zou Degui believed that he had come to deliver the decree, so they went out of the ghost, and of course they had to guard him strictly. However, the situation is still very unfavorable, Monk Greenqin's prestige is too high, Guo Xing'a is not there, and the generals of the Gu'an Army are almost suppressed by Monk Greenqin except for Tan Shaoguang.
"Your Majesty, please take the order!" Monk Greenqin was not angry because the guards pointed their guns at the people he brought, and his attitude was still very kind.
"The ministers (minions, me) and others will receive the order!" Everyone knelt down in surprise to receive the order, of course, Tan Shaoguang's posture was more like kneeling, and he claimed to be using me. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, he wouldn't accept the holy decree of the Qing Emperor.
"Praise Xiang Minister Cheng Cheng Zhi, the former Heilongjiang general, acting Jilin general Guoxing A Department of the Gu'an Army, strict military discipline, loyalty, courage and good fighting, repeatedly performed miraculous feats, is really one of the strongest troops in our Qing Dynasty. Guoxing Ajin was crowned the king of the county, and after he entered the military aircraft department with the title of secretary of the military department, his department could not be led by no one. Therefore, the special monk Gerinqin temporarily commanded the department, reorganized and reorganized, thinking that it was a plan to go south to exterminate the rebels, and he issued a special message! Monk Greenqin read out the edict in a frustrated manner.
"Slaves and other leaders are grateful!" This time, the voice of the answer was sparse, and there were only a few people, such as Cezana, Xiande, Bo Ritu, and Ji Ying. Pi Runmin, Zou Degui, Tan Shaoguang and others not only did not receive the order, but stood up directly.
"In the future, I hope that you will assist this king a lot, these are the generals that this king is used to in the past, and today they are all brought together, and you will be colleagues in the future, and you will get along in harmony!" Monk Greenqin didn't expect to win the military power easily, and the reaction of Tan Shaoguang and the others was completely within his expectations, so he didn't pay attention to the behavior of a few people without courtesy, and began to have a relationship with a few good babies who received the order.
Pi Runmin and Zou Degui didn't speak, but just watched coldly from the sidelines. Bo Ritu and Ji Ying rebelled as soon as they saw the edict, which was also expected by Pi Runmin and others, and to their surprise, it was Cezana and Xiande. Since the Battle of Bali Bridge, Saishana and Xiande have been in a state of semi-retreat, and Guoxing's relied on staff have been Pi Runmin and Zou Degui and others. After arriving in Chengde, Saishana and Xiande were even more marginalized, and Guoxinga rarely discussed things with them. Occasionally, I think of them, that is, to arrange some logistics chores, and the last time Guo Xing'a and Xianfeng used force, the two of them didn't even have a chance to talk. Although they were a little snubbed to the two, whether it was Guoxinga or Pi Runmin, they all felt that they were diehard loyalists of Guoxinga, and they would definitely not be shaken by the cold reception, but they didn't expect that they were the same as Bo Ritu and others today.
In fact, there is no problem with the loyalty of Cezanne and Xiande, but everyone thinks about the problem in a different way. These two old men have always felt that both themselves and Guoxinga are courtiers of the Qing Dynasty, and they are loyal ministers. They also don't think it's a good thing for Guo Xing'a to lead troops outside all the year round, and it's good to fight in battle formations and enjoy glory and wealth at home. So as soon as they heard that Guoxing was crowned king, the two of them were happy not to want it, they could be princes, what is the use of this military power, it is best to go home and enjoy happiness, so they resolutely support the will of the imperial court.
"This king doesn't want to take away your military power, it's just that these generals have followed this king for many years, and they are all battlefield generals, so it's not appropriate for them to be idle. So this king has a plan, you can refer to it in detail to see if it is feasible! Monk Lingqin found that there were two regiment leaders who were inclined to him, and immediately felt that the victory was in his hands, and began to study the placement of his own people, but the words were still very polite.
"Please command!" A group of people who have already surrendered to Cheng have a very good attitude, but Pi Runmin, Tan Shaoguang and others still don't say a word.
Monk Lingqin did not take any action against the original three regiments of Tan Shaoguang, Bo Ritu, and Ji Ying, that is, he sent a few prison troops in the name of equivalent observation and study, and his highlight was Guoxing's direct troops and 3,000 recruits outside the border. The troops directly under Goxinga came across the board, and all the military commanders of the reconnaissance battalion, heavy cavalry battalion, artillery regiment, medical corps, baggage regiment, and engineer battalion were all replaced, and all the people he brought were taken over. The original officers were all turned into second-line idle personnel, and they were all sent to Xishou's baggage regiment. The 3,000 recruits outside the pass, Guo Xing'a, sent hundreds of people to various regiments and directly subordinate troops, and the rest were organized into a provisional second light cavalry regiment, which had not yet arranged a regiment commander and was managed by Fuquan. This time, the focus of Seng Lingqin's reception was this provisional Second Light Cavalry Regiment, and the regiment commander and battalion commander were all taken over by the people he brought, and this regiment, which had followed Goxinga for the shortest time, was completely turned into his descendant army.
"Lord Wang, the matter of military affairs, should we wait for our Yun Shuai to come back and hand over to you!" Monk Greenqin was happy, and Pi Runmin came out to spoil the fun, how could they, the diehards of Guoxing'a, let Monk Greenqin take away Guoxing's family funds.
"Yun Shuai has ...... What are you going to do? Monk Lingqin originally wanted to explain the whereabouts of Guo Xing'a, but as soon as he said a few words, he found that an officer beside Tan Shaoguang was sneaking out of the door, and immediately yelled and wanted to stop this person.
Instead of stopping this sneaky guy, Monk Greenqin's roar played the role of a starting gun. As soon as the roar of Monk Lingqin came out, the officer, who was still sneaky, began to run, and rushed out like a gust of wind.
"Bang!"
"Lao Tzu, see which of you dares to move!" Tan Shaoguang shot at the roof, and then stopped the officer brought by Monk Greenqin who wanted to stop it.
The guns went off in the house, and the outside was naturally more chaotic, and the group of low-level officers left outside by Monk Greenqin also wanted to make a move. However, the bayonets and muskets of the guard company were not vegetarians, and the two sides were compared at that time, but fortunately, the officers suffered in numbers and weapons, and the two sides were only in a tense confrontation, and the battle had not really begun.
"General Tan Shaoguang, what do you want to do?" Monk Lingqin asked word by word, and with Tan Shaoguang's disdainful expression towards the edict, anyone could recognize him.
"I asked people to transfer troops, before our commander comes back, there are those who dare to move, and they will be killed!" Monk Greenqin had a very high prestige among the officers of the Qing Dynasty, but it had no effect on Tan Shaoguang at all. If it weren't for Guo Xing'a, the monk Lingqin in Tan Shaoguang's eyes would just be a demon head.
"Chonghui (Tan Shaoguang's character) must not be rude to the monk king!" Several people who have already surrendered to Cheng have come to persuade Tan Shaoguang, especially Bo Ritu is the most energetic.
"Smack!" A tea bowl suddenly fell to the ground and shattered. Immediately afterwards, Zou Degui, who had been silent, suddenly stood up, looked at the people who persuaded Tan Shaoguang with gloomy eyes, and didn't say a word, just looked at them as if he was going to kill someone.
"Mr. Huaiyuan, don't be angry?" Sezanne and Hyunde hurried over to appease this important aide of Goxinga.
"Changlu, Mu Shun, Kong Zhen, Chengtai, Cao Meng, Li Gen, Kan Changcheng, there's nothing to do with you here, go back to your team!" Zou Degui hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything cruel, but he named a few people.
"I'll see who dares to move!" Monk Lingqin also slapped the table.
"King Monk, our marshal hasn't handed over military affairs to you yet, and it's not your turn to give orders! Hurry up, you guys! Li Gen and Kan Changcheng, you two lead people to look at the recruits, and if you dare to act rashly, you will be killed! Pi Runmin was afraid that Zou Degui would rob him of his identity as the chief strategist, so he stood at the forefront, and directly denied the legitimacy of Seng Lingqin.
"Do you still have an edict in your eyes? Is there still the emperor and the queen mother of the two palaces? Monk Lingqin asked loudly, but he was not looking at Pi Runmin, but at Bo Ritu and Ji Ying.
"Li Gen, Kan Changcheng, come back to me!" Bo Ritu was relaxed, and there were no of his subordinates among the people named by Zou Degui. Ji Ying is very angry, except for the troops directly under him, the people named are all his and Tan Shaoguang's subordinates, Tan Shaoguang made it clear that he is not a bird monk Greenqin, what can he do! can only stop Li Gen and Kan Changcheng first.
"Tuanza, you should listen to the orders of the commander!" Li Gen and Kan Changcheng didn't leave, but they asked Ji Ying a rhetorical question, which made Ji Ying a little overwhelmed.
"General Tan, two gentlemen, you can lower your anger!" Ji Ying didn't speak, but Bo Ritu nodded to Tan Shaoguang and the others. There are not many people in the directly subordinate troops who can fight on the front line, and the current main force is the three regiments of Bo Ritu, Ji Ying, and Tan Shaoguang. Bo Ritu and Ji Ying are two to one, and Tan Shaoguang is suffering a loss in terms of troops. And with the edict of the imperial court, the recruits will definitely follow the monk Greenqin, and Tan Shaoguang's disadvantage is even greater.
"Are you dead in our miscellaneous department?" Zou Degui was angry and directly found out his identity as the head of the spies.
As soon as Zou Degui's words came out, Bo Ritu and others really felt a little cold in their necks. The last time Guoxing'a fought against Xianfeng, Bi Yuntao disobeyed the order before the battle, and everyone knew that the elusive miscellaneous department was also remembered by everyone. Today, Zou Degui mentioned again, Bo Ritu and Ji Ying are really a little vague, they don't know if there are any people from the miscellaneous department around them.
As soon as the miscellaneous section was thrown out, the scene froze. Monk Greenqin holds the title of Mandate of Heaven, Bo Ritu and Ji Ying and others firmly support him, and the recruits must only be the head of Monk Greenqin, and they occupy an absolute advantage. However, Pi Runmin, Zou Degui, Tan Shaoguang and others resolutely resisted, and no one wanted to move without Guo Xing's personal order. Although they suffer losses in terms of troops, and the hearts of the people below will fluctuate somewhat, they have the trump card of the miscellaneous department in their hands. Then there are reconnaissance battalions and artillery regiments, although the front-line combat effectiveness is average, but they are extremely powerful as support, and with Tan Shaoguang's cavalry regiment, they definitely have the ability to defeat other troops.
On the bright side, there are two groups of people who are swords-rattling, but in fact, there is a more embarrassing third group of people, that is, officers from Gu'an. They are also diehard loyalists of Guoxinga, but they don't have the courage to resist the imperial court, not to mention that Saishana and Xiande have fallen to the imperial court, so they are naturally more inclined to the imperial court. At the same time, they also have some resentment in their hearts, Xirab and Hatu were all following Guoxinga to fight the world at the beginning, but when Zou Degui named him today, there was no name for them. Everyone knows what this means, and they are no longer the core descendants of Guoxing'a. Of course, they also blame themselves a little, if they were really named just now, they may not have the courage to stand up to the imperial court, and it is no wonder that the core of Guoxing'a does not trust them.
While he wanted to send people out to transfer troops, he dragged him stiffly, and the two sides were at a stalemate. Except for Tan Shaoguang's people who surrounded the Chinese army, the other departments were still confused and didn't know anything. The transfer of troops failed, and the two sides began to spit on each other, Monk Greenqin was happy to delay time, Pi Runmin and others were not in a hurry, and the masterminds on both sides wanted to delay time and wait for news from Guoxing'a.
"Lord Wang, where is our handsome man, please ask him to come out and explain, and there will be no such troubles!" Saishana and Xiande reconciled for a while, and gradually felt that the taste was wrong, even if Guo Xing'a was crowned king, he should come back and explain. It's been half a day now, how can there not even be a shadow.
"Needless to say, since the few people refuse to obey the order, this king can only carry out the laws of the court! Don't think that your soldiers and horses are so powerful, the soldiers and horses of Rehe Du Tongchunyou have besieged here, this king advises you again, it's better not to make mistakes! "Monk Lingqin has been procrastinating to buy time for Chunyou.
"Ahh No matter how sluggish Sai Shang'a and the others are, they know that this is a trick by Monk Greenqin, and Guo Xing'a is afraid that there will be more than one luck.
"Shirab, Hatu, what are you still hesitating about, don't you hurry up and transfer troops!" Saishan'a and Xiande's faces also turned cold, and a smug smile appeared on Monk Greenqin's face.
"Lord, offended, before our handsome man comes back, you can only stay here for the time being!" Saishan'a suddenly pointed the finger at Monk Grinqin.
"I'll just say Uncle Sai won't betray me!" Before Seng Lingqin, Pi Runmin and the others could say anything, a somewhat weak voice had already sounded in the lobby.
