Yi Xun couldn't look at the twists and turns behind him, knelt down in pain, and cried: "Brother Huang, this, these twists and turns are true?" I've gotten to this point!? ”

Since ascending the throne, it has been a long time since I heard Yixun call him the imperial brother, and at this moment, Xianfeng remembered the situation when the two brothers played together when he was a child, and he couldn't help but almost shed tears. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He helped Yixin up, thinking in his heart, it is really my own brother, and at this moment of crisis, he will show his true feelings, and he will also worry about my country. His face slowed down, and he said: "Sixth, you see, these local officials in the Great Qing Dynasty are all greedy for life and afraid of death, and they can't even defend the territory of the Great Qing Dynasty, which is really hateful!" These outsiders are unreliable, you have been idle for a long time, come out to help me share my worries! ”

Yixun looked sad and said: "The courtier is willing to share the worries and solve the problems for the emperor, and he will die!" ”

Xianfeng nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly: "Passing on my will, I will make Prince Heshuo Gong Yixun the right Zongzheng of the Zongren Mansion, and then appoint him as the commander of Manchuria with the red flag, and the minister of the military aircraft foreman." Sixth, don't let me down on my hard work. ”

After speaking, he looked at the rest of the ministers, his face sank, and said, "These few excerpts are all bad news!" The Qing Dynasty was plagued by many disasters, and the territory under my rule was repeatedly conquered by thieves. ”

"In the southwest, Yunnan borders Guangxi, Guangnan Prefecture, Guangxi Prefecture, Kaihua Prefecture, Qujing Prefecture, Dongchuan Prefecture, Zhaotong Prefecture, Wuding Prefecture, Yunnan Prefecture, Chuxiong Prefecture and other places are all occupied by Cantonese thieves. In the whole of Yunnan, in addition to Kunming City, and the state capitals in western Yunnan and southern Yunnan, half of the state capitals have been occupied by Cantonese thieves, Hengchun, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and Wu Zhenqi, the governor of Yunnan, led the troops to support in the city of Kunming, and sent people to rush out of the siege of the thieves, and sent an urgent report to the Beijing division for help. If you don't save it, I'm afraid that it will fall in a month or two. Xianfeng said bitterly Yunan's urgent report.

Originally, due to the war between the long-haired thieves and the Guangdong thieves, the traffic in the Huguang area was cut off, resulting in the inability of copper from Yunnan to be transported to Huguang, Jiangnan and the north, resulting in a shortage of copper materials to be minted in various parts of the Qing Dynasty. Now that Yunan has been occupied, not only have the copper materials that were not shipped out been robbed by the Guangdong thieves, but there will be no copper ingots to mint money in the future.

This is a fatal blow! The Qing Dynasty, which was already short of money, is now empty in the treasury, and there is no money to fill the treasury, what should be done in the future?

This Yunan still has to be saved! However, how to save this remote place with high mountains and long waters? At the beginning, Wu Sangui rebelled, but Kangxi Ye prepared for several years before sending troops to quell the rebellion, and it also took several years to attack Yunan with the strength of the entire Qing Dynasty.

Judging from the report, the number of Cantonese thieves who invaded Yunan was very large, and if you want to save Yunnan, you must send more than 30,000 or 40,000 troops.

But now, these places are full of thieves attacking, and there are too many places where soldiers need to be used. Where is there a force of tens of thousands for themselves to be transferred to Yunnan? Around Yunnan, Guizhou doesn't have many troops, not to mention, if it weren't for the fact that Guizhou is a land of poor mountains and bad waters, maybe the thieves would have attacked Guizhou.

There are only four of them! The number of troops in Siqi was originally larger, but since the incident of the long-haired thief soldiers, he has dispatched troops from the land of Sichuan and Shu several times in a row, and he has gone out of Sichuan to attack the thief soldiers, and tens of thousands of people have been transferred before and after.

Moreover, according to the report of the general army of Yichang Town just now, the Guangdong thieves have sent a thief army of tens of thousands of people from Mubei to enter Siqi along the Yangtze River and attack Kuizhou Mansion. Now it seems that Siqi is difficult to protect itself, and maybe, in two days, he will see an urgent report from the governor of Siqi for help.

But the Guizhou next to this side can't send troops to rescue, so can't you just watch Yunan being captured by thieves? A lot of copper coins have never had anything to do with the Qing Dynasty since then! Without this income from minting copper coins, the life of the Qing Dynasty would be even more difficult.

Xianfeng fell into a dilemma! If it is not saved, the Qing Dynasty will have no copper coins from then on; Save, what to save? If nothing else, even if there are soldiers, where does the salary come from? Even if you send 10,000 troops, will you be able to defeat those thieves? Now I have read a lot of Xianfeng war reports, but some of them know, not to mention the long-haired thief soldiers, 10,000 thief soldiers can compete with the 15,000 troops of the Qing Dynasty, this Guangdong thief, but more fierce than the long-haired thief soldiers, with sharp firearms, 10,000 thief soldiers, at least 20,000 officers and soldiers must be sent forward.

Therefore, how annoyed Xianfeng was, even if he dropped all the porcelain in the front hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he still couldn't decide whether to send troops to rescue Yunan or simply give up.

Xianfeng could only say in a low voice: "All Aiqing should discuss it!" ”

Su Shun peeked at Xianfeng, thinking about the emperor's high-spirited and heroic appearance because of the great victory in Wuchang a few days ago. Now that it has only been a few days, the world has taken a sharp turn, and it is indeed difficult to listen to the urgent report of the emperor.

This Cantonese thief was originally just hiding behind the long-haired thief soldiers, and he didn't show the mountains and waters, but now it has become the climate. Su Shun was startled after thinking about it: unconsciously, this Cantonese thief actually occupied the territory of the six provinces of the Qing Dynasty, and there were many more than the long-haired thief soldiers!

It's just that Su Shun's status is still low, and he is only a royal guard who can serve here, so he shrunk his head and stayed aside.

The new military aircraft walker Du Han said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Yunan has to be saved!" Where the copper mines, once lost, the Qing Dynasty's finances will be in trouble, and let the Cantonese thieves get those copper mines, and in a few years, they will accumulate a lot of wealth. Under the elimination of the other, I will really ......" Du Han didn't dare to say it directly, but everyone knew the meaning of what he didn't finish.

Du Han is the eldest son of the emperor Du Shoutian, known for his talent, the courage to do things, has been quite relied on and trusted by Emperor Xianfeng, plus Xianfeng is grateful for the kindness of the deceased teacher Du Shoutian, and cares for Du Han, and he is newly promoted to the Ministry of Industry and the military aircraft walking, so that he can give advice by his side.

"Du Aiqing, where do you say we should send troops from?" Xianfeng didn't blame Du Han at all, but asked curiously.

"Back to the emperor, the current situation can only mobilize troops and horses from the four sides. The Sichuan soldiers in northern and western Sichuan could be temporarily ordered to enter Yunnan, and then Shaanxi and Gansu soldiers could be sent to fill in the Sichuan defense. As for the soldiers' salaries, they can only be amortized on the spot by the land of Sichuan and Shu. Duhan, on the other hand, was quick to think and quickly came up with a more effective strategy.

When Xianfeng heard this, his face showed a little relief from sorrow, and he nodded and said, "Du Aiqing's strategy is wonderful!" That's right! ”

Xianfeng is a hesitant character, because of the relationship between his mentor Du Shoutian, he can be said to regard Du Han as a brother, and he believes in it the most, but at this moment, he listens to Du Han's idea and immediately identifies it.

"The last two pieces are also a big headache for me. One is the governor of Zhejiang, Huang Zonghan, Wenzhou, Taizhou, Quzhou, Yanzhou and Chuzhou in the southwest of Zhejiang, all occupied by Cantonese thieves, Zhejiang has few soldiers, Huang Zonghan asked to transfer back the Zhejiang soldiers originally sent to the Jiangnan camp to defend Zhejiang. The second is that tens of thousands of long-haired thieves who escaped from Tianjin fled across the sea to Shengjing Fengtianfu, and have occupied Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Xiongyue, Gaizhou and other places. The secretaries also discussed, what should be done? Xianfeng finished talking about the report in one breath, he didn't even let everyone read it one by one, and couldn't wait to throw it out, it was really these worse news than the other, which made him breathless, and he was anxious to find someone to help him share these pains, but he didn't realize it himself.
