Xianfeng died on July 16, but he died in Rehe, and it was already a trouble for the emperor to stop in the palace, and it was even more troublesome to die outside. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

If you don't deal with the follow-up hand and tail, the emperor's death can't be told to the world, so it wasn't until the 20th that the emperor's obituary was made clear to the world.

What's more, where the water is too deep, Su Shun and others became ministers of life, Xianfeng appointed eight ministers of life at once, but there was no his own brother Prince Gong Yixin, and he gave his seal to the two empress dowagers Cixi, for fear that the lord would be weak and the ministers would be strong, and in the future, the eight ministers would become the kind of role of Aobai, oppressing orphans and widows.

But at this time, Yi Xin's prestige was very high, the emperor took Su Shun and others to Chengde, Yi Xin dealt with foreigners in Beiping, and the officials of various ministries in Beiping saw it clearly, and also formed a good relationship with Yi Xin, but the eight ministers who took care of their lives did not have Yi Xin, which inevitably made people doubt the authenticity of the edict.

Anyway, there are legends in the capital that the eight ministers are overbearing, and there is a lot of uproar.

The edict has already made such a fuss when it arrives in Beiping City, and it may not be what it will be like when it arrives in Guangzhou.

Anyway, there is only more chaos, not the most chaotic, in Zhu Jinglun's plan, that is the best time to start an incident.

In addition, he still thinks that XA County Yong has not been cornered yet, and their will to rebel is still not strong enough, so he has to wait.

At this time, among all the people, only Zhu Jinglun can stay calm.

Such a complicated situation, such a tense atmosphere, made everyone anxious, and they all wanted to make their position clear, even if they pulled the flag and rebelled, first fought with the eight banners in the city, and wiped out these court irons first, and then sent troops outside the city to fight a decisive battle with the elderly, and then sent troops around to pacify the world, so that everyone also has a goal.

The ancients said that if the name is not right, it is not unreasonable, some people say that Hong Xiuquan pulled the flag and rebelled too early, which led to the Qing Dynasty to suppress it with all his might, but if he didn't pull up the flag, the ghost knew him, who would defect to him? Zhu Yuanzhang's method of building a high wall and slowly becoming king is not applicable to every rebel. The imperial court suppressed everywhere and made a lot of noise, but everyone knew about Hong Xiuquan, and he really became a banner at this time.

For ten days in a row, it was the end of August, and Zhu Jinglun still did not receive the news that Xianfeng had died.

XA County Yong was almost unbearable by Zhu Jinglun's grinding, and he had been persuaded several times, at first they thought it was for show, and then they began to be afraid that Zhu Jinglun really didn't want to rebel with them, because they persuaded them more than three times, all five times, but Zhu Jinglun was unmoved.

Seven or eight more attacks were carried out outside the city.

Suddenly, on this day, Fang Shan hurried to Zhu Jinglun's room, and it was not good to enter the door.

"Qi Ling has transferred 50,000 troops, and now he has surrounded Guangzhou on three sides, east, west and north."

Zhu Jinglun just got up, and couldn't help but be startled: "Fifty thousand? Where did he come from an army of 50,000? ”

The army that can move so fast, in Zhu Jinglun's consciousness, there is only one Hunan army, that is, the Hunan army is worthy of his seriousness, the Eight Banners are not good, and the Green Battalion is not good.

Fang Shan said: "Look at the outfit, I'm afraid it's a village brave." ”

"Fifty thousand townspeople."

If it wasn't for the Hunan army, Zhu Jinglun would be relieved.

"Go and find out immediately, where did the senior recruit the 50,000 villagers, and it is impossible to recruit so many people for a while. See if it's transferred back from gx. ”

At night, the black dog picked out those Hakka masters, and quietly went out of the city, these people fought with Tuyong for six or seven years, and they were mountain people, and they were not a problem to cross the mountains and mountains, they were really suitable for being scouts, they dispatched once, and they successfully captured five Xiangyong.

Now Zhu Jinglun figured out the situation.

These villagers were not transferred back from GX, and the GX soldiers had to deal with the rebellious Tiandihui Chen Kai, and Shi Dakai who had infiltrated GX, where would the troops be transferred back to Guangzhou.

What surprised Zhu Jinglun was that these township warriors turned out to be Cantonese people from Heshan and other counties, because the Cantonese and Hakka people in these places where the Turks and Hakkas lived together were organized, but they had no official background, except that at the beginning, because many Cantonese people joined the Hongbing, when the government used Hakka armed forces to exterminate bandits, some were biased towards the Hakka people, and then the government almost ignored them, which can be said to be completely neutral.

Therefore, in the end, the reason why the Tuan Yong of Guangfu was able to defeat the Hakka people can be said to be completely dependent on their own strength, they organized themselves and formed a large number of regimental defense bureaus, and even were able to unify the Tuan Yong of a county, and the Tuan Yong of Xinning and Yangjiang even united the Ningyang Bureau in the city, so the scale of these Tuyong regimental training is quite huge.

But in the huge, after all, it is a civilian armed force, and the financial resources are limited, and the 50,000 people have definitely drained all the Tuyong in this area.

Without great interests, it is absolutely impossible to let the Tuan Tuan Yong, who is besieging Heshan Keyong and intends to make Heshan County like Enping County, all the Cantonese forces of the Tuan Yong be moved.

After inquiry, it was found that Qi Ling had really invested a lot of money, and he took out all the 300,000 GX military expenses in Zhaoqing, and went to the Wuyi area to recruit Xiangyong, and even allowed him to take an official position and win over a large number of Tuyong leaders.

What Zhu Jinglun didn't expect was that Zhang Qianshan, the chief soldier of Nanshao Town, who was responsible for quelling the fighting in the Heshan area, played a considerable role in it. Qi Ling sent a governor's order to all counties in Wuyi, asking each county to organize a regiment to attack Guangzhou, and designated Guangzhou Xa County as a rebellion.

When he received the Governor's order, the county orders were still hesitating, but Zhang Qianshan regarded this as a great opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune, he was also familiar with that area, and personally went to communicate with the various Tuyong leaders, those Tuyong leaders, such as Tan Cai, are all ambitious people, and Zhang Qianshan is a person all the way, and he is very interested in getting promoted and making a fortune.

Only left half of the men and horses in the various mountain passes under the Huangmaobi Mountain, and the brigade immediately followed Zhang Qianshan to Guangzhou, their army numbered 20,000, and it was the strongest combat effectiveness among the 50,000 villagers outside the city, and Tan Cai and these people were rich and rich, and they all bought a large number of foreign guns in Hong Kong, and the number of cannons was also quite a lot, and there were more than 30 of them found at present, but they were all infantry cannons, and they could not suppress the batteries on the city wall.

There are 30,000 Tuyong left, most of whom are temporary patchwork, and their combat effectiveness is not strong.

At present, Zhang Qianshan's Tuyong is concentrated in the north of the city, and in the west of the city, there are 10,000 Tuyong plus the Zhaoqing Eight Banners Green Battalion, and the remaining 20,000 Tuyong are stationed in the area of Luogang and Huanggang in Dongcheng, and this Tuyong force is the worst in combat effectiveness.

50,000 soldiers pressed the border, it seems that the time has come.

It's time to really pull the flag and rebel, and there is no need to wait for the news of Xianfeng's death, because the 50,000 army is enough for more than 10,000 XA counties in the city to make a desperate bet, and completely make up their minds to rebel against Zhu Jinglun, and also defeat the 50,000 army, and they will have no way to retreat at all.

So Zhu Jinglun immediately summoned all the battalion officers that night and set up three rules:

"You should answer my three things, and this official will take you to ask for a way to live."

"Your Excellency, please speak."

Everyone petitioned, they felt that they had actually been prepared for a long time, and they had already wanted to pull the flag and rebel, but Zhu Jinglun felt that their pressure was not enough.

"First, once an incident happens, there is no way back, all of you must obey my orders, look ahead, have no two hearts, and must not retreat! Even if parents, wives and children call each other, they are not allowed to leave the barracks without our military order. Violators will be killed! ”

Everyone agreed, at this time, they begged Zhu Jinglun to lead them to rebel, not Zhu Jinglun fooled them into rebellion. And what Zhu Jinglun is worried about is that these people are saying very well now, but once their clan and parents see their son rebelling, they immediately send someone to call them, and they will be scattered all of a sudden.

"Second, the order is forbidden, and the military order, as before, must not be violated in the slightest, and violators will be punished according to the old practice. Each officer performs his duty, and every soldier guards his position. We must not have the idea of being promoted to an official position and making a fortune, and we must remember that we have always been officers and soldiers who defend our homes and land, not rogues who are wantonly popular. Anyone who violates the order will be dealt with in accordance with military law. ”

No one didn't agree to this, and their rules haven't changed these days. The main reason is that Zhu Jinglun is worried that once these people rebel, they will feel that they are fighting the world for Zhu Jinglun, and they will begin to become arrogant and disobedient to military orders. Therefore, he must let them always maintain the rules under the training of the Swedes before, as long as there are rules and can keep discipline, their combat effectiveness is far better than that of the Qing army. It's a pity that the Swedes won't come along to make trouble, and they won't participate in the confrontation with the Manchu government. Therefore, Zhu Jinglun should emphasize the military regulations formulated by these Swedes with Zhu Jinglun's consent.

"Third, burn the book and sacrifice table, sign the covenant, and everyone swears!"

This set is a traditional rebellion ritual of the Chinese, with a strong gang nature, but since it is popular, it is worth taking advantage of, but Zhu Jinglun did not kowtow to these people, but made a contract, Fang Shan wrote a letter against the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and then asked everyone to sign, and then burned this document to God.

But there is still a copy of the inscription, find a stonemason to engrave it on the stone tablet, and engrave the name of each officer, not only so that they have no way out, which is equivalent to a life and death contract, but also engrave the agreed contents, whoever violates the military law in the future will immediately cut off his head in front of the stone tablet, and no one dares to say that Zhu Jinglun does not care about the situation, but they are treacherous and break their promises first.

After agreeing with all the officers, let them go back immediately to prepare, including conveying these situations to their soldiers, so that everyone understands the situation, and everyone determines the goal and direction, and the next day Zhu Jinglun asks them to launch a military operation and launch an attack on Tuyong outside the city.

Zhu Jinglun needed a victory to stabilize the morale of the army and improve morale, and the first battle of any uprising and rebellion was extremely important.

But there is a hidden danger, that is, the 20,000 people brought by Zhang Qianshan are not so easy to deal with, if Zhu Jinglun attacks them, he will definitely not be able to destroy them for a while and a half, and there are still tens of thousands of Eight Banners Green Battalion soldiers in the city.

At this time, Fang Shan stood up and said that he was willing to go to Zhang Qianshan's camp as a lobbyist to persuade Zhang Qianshan to stay still. Zhu Jinglun, who was in pursuit of victory, would order people to attack the weakest Tuyong troops in the east of the city, and strive to completely annihilate this army in one fell swoop.
