To be honest, when Bai Gui entered the city just now, Huang Zonghan was a little unbearable. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Because he thought that Bai Gui was going to negotiate, and the foreigners were letting them, the lord of the Qin Mission, go, Bai Gui insisted that he would go as a governor, and he might be able to bluff the foreigners.

Why did Bai Gui do this, and he quarreled with himself, Huang Zonghan thought for a while that Bai Gui was forced to be in a hurry, you must know that he may be detained by foreigners if he goes, and Bai Gui may also be detained if he goes. If it weren't for the urgency, how could you take this risk.

So he was still a little unbearable, he felt that Bai Gui was so risky, and there were his own reasons in it, if he hadn't forced Bai Gui too hard, making Bai Gui feel in danger, maybe he wouldn't have taken such a risk. Forcing a colleague like this, Huang Zonghan really couldn't bear it.

But when he knew that Bai Gui had only been in for a cup of tea, and the foreigners sent someone to say that they were willing to surrender, Huang Zonghan understood in an instant that Bai Gui had already told the foreigners. Bai Gui has such a deep relationship with foreigners, foreigners sell such a big credit to Bai Gui, how many benefits did Bai Gui have betrayed to foreigners, this is not Shi Jingjiao?

But anger can only be angry in his heart, because Huang Zonghan knows that no one will believe this matter, and the emperor will not believe it. Instead, he will fall into the reputation of framing his colleagues.

Anger has turned into hate, he hates himself for being soft-hearted, hates why he didn't send someone to detain Bai Gui just now, just now he could not let him out, did he want to see this old colleague hit a wall with a schadenfreude mentality, so he didn't stop him, or was he worried that Bai Gui would die with him, and he didn't stand by because he regretted himself?

Whatever the reason, Huang Zonghan was full of remorse.

The British surrendered, and the French were embarrassed. In the past few days, relations between the British and French forces have broken down, at least in this small and narrow area south of the city, and no one cares about anyone, and the joint military conference is no longer held. They all go their own way, each defending its own area.

Now the British did not even inform the French of such a thing as surrender, which still made Captain Martine angry.

When he was angry and found the British, Bai Gui, who was in the British army, told Martine that the treatment given to the French by the Qing Dynasty would not change, and that the French should be allowed to leave the city safely with their weapons, and that it would be up to them to join their men in the north school yard or to leave Guangzhou by boat from the south gate.

What else can the French say, they also sent someone to Huang Zonghan to contact the matter of leaving the city.

Huang Zonghan, who was angry, wanted to refuse the request of the French and fight with the French, but in full view of everyone, he really couldn't make a decision to oppose it, so it was not Bai Gui who was unlucky, but Huang Zonghan.

When the British army sent envoys to surrender and let Xiangyong enter the city to take over the defense, Baigui also wrote a letter to the officials outside the city, telling them that in order to appease the foreigners, he decided to live in the foreigners' barracks during the surrender of the foreigners, so as to avoid the other party's uneasiness and trouble.

No one else can figure out what he does, and no one guessed that Bai Gui would be a hostage of foreigners.

Of course, he really didn't treat him like a hostage.

He was still quite free, at least in the British barracks.

He immediately went to visit the real detained Canton general Mukdenne.

Compared to Bai Gui, Mukdenne is more like a traitor, a traitor through and through. This product is still a Manchurian magnate, the Guerjia clan, the Manchurian inlaid white flag people with red roots, the three banners led by the emperor himself, and the authentic Manchurian Eight Banners, which can be said to be the pro-slave of the Aixin Jueluo family.

But during his captivity, he cooperated with the foreigners more thoroughly than Bai Gui, and the 10,000 Eight Banners and Green Battalion soldiers under his command obediently stayed in the barracks for more than eight months under his leadership, gambling all day long, without the slightest idea of rebellion. Mukdenne himself was of course much better treated than the soldiers, at first he lived in his own general's palace, the Anglo-French army occupied the front of the general's palace, and Mukdenne and his family still lived in the back house, and no one disturbed them.

Unlike Bai Gui, who still wants to maintain a relationship between Xiangyong and foreigners, Mukdenne is at ease as his captive life, and the reason why this is so is because Mukedenne is much more confident than Baigui. Bai Gui always knew that it would be too easy for him to be taken out for questioning once the emperor settled the score, but Mukdenne believed that the emperor would definitely not kill him in the future. In the final analysis, the Manchurians are the masters of this court, and once someone dares to impeach him, there will be countless people to protect him, and those prince-level magnates will stand up and plead for him. This is the true spirit of ownership, and can be calm and calm in any situation.

The reason why Bai Gui came to Mukdenne was that he had an alliance with Mukdenne, and the two had the same experience, to a certain extent, they were grasshoppers on a rope. Bai Gui needed Mukdenne to write a letter to the emperor with him, explaining to the emperor what they had done in Guangzhou during this time, and letting Mukdene, a powerful man of the Eight Banners, endorse him, telling the emperor that he did not help foreigners during this time, and the reason why he stayed in Guangzhou City, instead of abandoning the city and running away to train outside the city like Hua Tingjie and them, was completely for the sake of the overall situation, and risked staying in the city to tell the people that Guangzhou was still from the imperial court, not foreigners. If Bai Gui was desperate at that time, and the entire city of Guangzhou was handed over to foreigners, who knows what would have happened. As for the placement of secret agents and the like that Bai Gui said later, Bai Gui had already told the emperor before, and the fold may have been placed on the emperor's table.

Seeing that Bai Gui said what he meant, Mukdenne agreed in one mouthful, and swore that he would stay in the city, and he was indeed preparing to cooperate with the outside world to help the imperial court recover the city. For Mukdenne, this is a good thing that cannot be desired, although even if he returns to Beijing City in the future, and the Eight Banners brothers will protect him, he can leave a life, and the emperor will not pursue him, I am afraid he will not be of great use. It's good now, Bai Gui puts a credit on his head, and a fool won't want it.

With the endorsement of the Manchurian magnates, Bai Gui felt that he was not only innocent, but had meritorious, not only saving this life, but also saving his glory and wealth and official position.

Therefore, Mukdenne not only agreed to sign a joint letter with Bai Gui, but also promised that after the Eight Banners Green Battalion soldiers were released, he was willing to bring people to cooperate with Bai Gui.

In a blink of an eye, Bai Gui still had 10,000 soldiers available in his hand, and this turnaround battle was fought beautifully, and Bai Gui felt that he was a little drunk.

Huang Zonghan was not happy, but things still had to be done, he really didn't want to see Bai Gui's face, so he handed over the matter of taking over the city and the British army to Hua Tingjie and others, and he said that he still wanted to take care of the people, and he didn't plan to go to Nancheng at all.

The Eight Banners and Green Battalion soldiers in the camp of Xiezhen in Guangzhou were released, and as soon as they turned around, the foreigners were locked in, and like them, they handed over their weapons. Hua Tingjie was afraid that these Eight Banners would retaliate against the foreigners, so he specially sent his own Xiang Yong to guard him and send the Eight Banners soldiers to the north of the city.

Zhu Jinglun was not idle, he was also recruiting rebels, and knelt in front of more than a dozen coolie leaders.

It turns out that they are not unreasonable, not that they don't know that helping foreigners against the government is a big crime of rebellion, thinking that these people have no sense of state, that is the assumption of pedantic literati, in fact, these people know very well, they are just for money, for big smoke, but they also know in their hearts that what they do is not authentic, at least they know that what they do is a serious crime in the eyes of the government.

"Get up!"

Zhu Jinglun waved his hand, but no one dared to get up.

"Why, my family asked you to get up, and you don't know how to lift it, do you?"

Hou Jin next to him shouted, and those leaders stood up tremblingly one by one, and when they called them to come, Hou Jin asked them if they were afraid of a thousand knives, and these people knew that if the court condemned them to a rebellion, it would be Ling Chi's execution.

So they were all frightened, begging Hou Jin to help them make it clear, and Hou Jin told them that if their adults were willing to take them in, they would be innocent, and this is why these people knelt in front of Zhu Jinglun one by one.

After seeing these leaders get up, Zhu Jinglun immediately ordered:

"You all know where the foreigners' arsenal is, now gather all your people and follow Lord Hou to collect the foreigners' weapons!"

Raiding the house, this is a good thing, this group of people screamed and acted, and there were people who thought they were smart and quietly told Zhu Jinglun that he knew where the foreigner's treasury was.

Zhu Jinglun also wants the silver, but he has no money to share the spoils.

He knew that there would definitely be a greasy inside, and when the time came, it would be an unclear lawsuit, and he didn't want to get involved. After the fall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the treasures of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom made powerful ministers like Zeng Guofan cause a lot of trouble, and they can be contaminated now?

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that Hua Tingjie had just entered the city and had just come into contact with the British, it was only right to strike first and get a batch of British weapons.

Although these big smoker coolies are unbearable, they are the only force that they can hold in their arms at present, and they are also the only forces that can be mobilized.

Following behind a group of shouting coolies, they found the British arsenal, which was guarded by a group of Indian soldiers and officers by English.

Of course, the other side refused to hand over their weapons.

Zhu Jinglun asked the officers if they knew that the British army had surrendered.

The officer said that he had received a notice and was waiting for the Qing army to hand over the arms.

Zhu Jinglun said that they were the Qing troops who had come to receive the arsenal.

The officer said that these were coolies, not Qing troops.

Zhu Jinglun said that they had surrendered, had been absorbed by the Qing army, and were now the Qing army.

The officer said that Zhu Jinglun did not receive the documents.

Zhu Jinglun forced him to look at him and asked him if he could take the responsibility of provoking the war between Britain and the Qing Dynasty again, or if the other party wanted to use such a few people to fight with him.

Two thousand coolies were pressed together, and they couldn't be beaten, so the officer chose to back down under Zhu Jinglun's forced gaze, anyway, they were all things to be handed over, and he had nothing to be reluctant to.

In this way, Zhu Jinglun robbed the arsenal of the British army, not to mention, it was really a lot of money, 5,000 brand-new Model 1853 Enfield rifles.
