Chapter 59 is a mixed bag

The open gun is easy to block, but the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, if it weren't for Qiu Ying's crooked hit, maybe he was really plotted. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info is unbelievably cold, the officialdom is sinister, Yan Jiakang really realized the true meaning through the Tong Wannian incident, and his mind was a little clearer. Everything went smoothly and was carried away by the victory, and to put it bluntly, he was still a short trial.

After the next year, the spring breeze returned, and Yan Jiakang went to Jinan to meet the governor. As expected, Yang Shixiang was about to leave his post and go to Tianjin to serve as the governor of Zhili and concurrently serve as the minister of Beiyang. Although Yan Jiakang has outstanding performance in Zhoucun, he is still a small sesame official in the eyes of officials. For Yang Shixiang's promotion, all the officials slapped their horses one after another, and unanimously praised the governor for governing Shandong in a good way, and he was the minister of Zhongxing in the Qing Dynasty, and the initiator was left out in the cold.

Yan Jiakang doesn't care about being left out in the cold, and he doesn't care that the credit is on Yang Shixiang's head. This time I came mainly to test his attitude, but when Yang Shixiang got along in private, he didn't show excessive enthusiasm. "Ge County's ability to govern has been proven to be of great use. The official suggested that he be promoted and reused, but the above still thought that you need to be trained when you are young. "Lord Yang, the lower officials have no complaints." "It's good that you think like this, work hard in Zhou Village first, and this official will not be disappointed by you??????。"

Yang Shixiang repeatedly told him not to be arrogant and low-key, which shows that he has regarded himself as a confidant. Yang Shixiang just repeatedly emphasized that he did not promise anything, Yan Jiakang suddenly thought, why did Yang Shixiang promote and replace Yuan Shikai as the governor of Zhili? It shows that the Empress Dowager Cixi has begun to weaken Yuan Shikai's power. The reason why the Manchu nobles chose Yang Shixiang shows that there is not harmony between Yang Shixiang and Yuan Shikai. If there is a problem between them, where do they go from here?

Yang Shixiang will not be able to take up his post until the summer, and Yan Jiakang is a little confused. He knew in his heart that if he was dealing with these "extremely smart" heavyweights who had been proven by history, the slightest mistake would be doomed.

On the way back, Yan Jiakang told Hu Boyong what he wanted. Hu Boyong heard this and said, "Master Ge, your trouble is here again. Yan Jiakang was shocked when he heard this: "Mr. Hu, please give me some guidance." Hu Boyong stroked his beard and analyzed: "According to the information provided by Lord Yang, this time the imperial court promoted Lord Yang, and it stands to reason that he should go to the Yamen of the Prime Minister of the capital to take up his post." Can Lord Yang serve as the governor of Zhili and the minister of Beiyang, and Yuan Shikai will be transferred to the Military Aircraft Department, which is very revealing? ”

"What's the problem?" Yan Jiakang had to admire Hu Boyong's acumen. It seems unreasonable, the Manchu nobles believed that Yuan Shikai's high position and power had threatened the dominance of the Manchus, especially the Empress Dowager Cixi had become jealous of Yuan Shikai. Entering Beijing to serve as the Minister of Military Aircraft seems to be a promotion, but in fact he wants to deprive Yuan Shikai of his military power. Although Yang Shixiang is from the Beiyang family, he is an important minister in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Cixi. This shows that there is an essential difference between Yuan Shikai and Yang Shixiang. ”

"Mr. Hu, I want to know what the trouble you are talking about?" "You mentioned that the candidate to fill the vacancy in the Zibo prefect this time is Song Shiyuan, do you know who Song Shiyuan is?" "Lord Yang just mentioned this person lightly, and I didn't ask in detail." "Song Shiyuan is Yuan Shikai's staff, and the people around him are not idle people. Song Shiyuan served as the prefect of Zibo, and it was 100% the handiwork of Yuan Shikai. This time, Lord Yang couldn't take you away, and Yuan Shikai was also a hindrance. ”

"You mean that Song Shiyuan made up for the lack of the Zibo prefect, and he came to me." "Do you need to ask? The old man thought that although Yuan Shikai and Yang Shixiang belonged to the same Beiyang lineage, they were not of the same mind. Lord Ge, what you have done in Zhou Village has a far-reaching reputation, and if you don't get it right, you will become a victim of their interests! Yan Jiakang heard that a cold sweat suddenly flowed, history has verified its direction, but he will become a victim between them, this question has really not been thought about.

"Master Ge, as the old man sees, Yuan Shikai will go to Maicheng in the future, and you must follow Lord Yang without hesitation in order to save the day." Yan Jiakang had to admire Hu Boyong's old spiciness, and vision. But Hu Boyong could not predict the imminent fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and what would happen later, and even this was enough to impress Yan Jiakang. "Mr. Hu, your analysis is incisive, it seems that I am going to deal with Song Shiyuan." What Yan Jiakang said is not the same thing as what he thinks, the coexistence of crises is the same, isn't it also an opportunity?

The train arrived in Zhoucun and returned to the county government with a group of people, Shan Feng came out to greet him with a happy face, but he stopped when he saw Hu Boyong wanting to speak. Walking into the living room, Yan Jiakang said: "Brother Shan, Mr. Hu is no longer an outsider, there is no need to hide some things." "Nian cut into a letter, Zhang Meng ransacked the Japanese trading company, this kid is really good, the things in the Japanese trading company have been looted, and the goods are currently in Penglai, and they will be shipped in a few days."

"What's going on?" Hu Boyong was surprised. Yan Jiayasu explained in detail the subjugation of the sea wolf and the actions against the Japanese. "Stupid, simply stupid!" Unexpectedly, Hu Boyong strongly opposed it after hearing it.

"Mr. Hu, what is stupidity, is it difficult to let the Japanese be unscrupulous?" Singlet is gone. Yan Jiakang stopped: "Mr. Hu, what is extremely stupid, I want to hear your high opinion?" "Lord Ge, such an action can only be temporary, but it will bring a series of evil consequences. The Japanese have always wanted to get their hands on the Shandong Peninsula, but there is no excuse! And we attacked the Japanese trading company, which provided a pretext for the Japanese government to garrison troops in Yantai! "The Qing Dynasty will not be cowardly to such a point!" Singlet disagreed.

"What Mr. Hu said makes sense, but I didn't think it through. The current imperial court, in the face of foreigners, has reached the level of talking about the tiger's color, and anything can happen. Immediately notify Nian to cut down and cease all his activities. In addition, he asked him to inform the sea wolves to evacuate Temple Island and disperse and hide. Yan Jiakang woke up like a dream, and Hu Boyong saw it very thoroughly.

Hu Boyong continued: "Master Ge, Shandong is the territory of the Germans at the moment, and even if the Japanese want to infiltrate, they must look at the eyes of the Germans, and there is no need to talk about the tiger's color change. The old man is already a die-hard loyalist, and I hope that such a big plan will not be hidden from me in the future? "Mr. Hu, please rest assured that nothing will be hidden from you in the future."

As expected, the Japanese army dispatched warships to carry out inhumane and indiscriminate bombing of several islands in the northern part of Changshan Island, killing and injuring more than 200 innocent fishermen. Under high pressure, the imperial court was forced to agree to the unreasonable demands of the Japanese government. And the Germans didn't say anything, and Yan Jiakang was so remorseful when he heard the bad news.

The hasty action caused evil consequences, so that Yan Jiakang judged the situation and had to change his strategy. Causing trouble along the coast of Shandong at the moment is bound to give the Japanese an excuse to plot against Shandong, and the gains outweigh the losses. Subsequently, Yan Jiakang decided to make an all-out layout on the Liaodong Peninsula and build an intelligence network first. Order the Seawolf Department to act as the escort of the transport ship and ensure the safety of the transport vessel. Before World War I, try not to provoke the Japanese, and not to give the Japanese any truth. The layout takes time, and you can't rush the layout slowly.

That night, Wang Kun secretly entered the county office. In a secret room, Yan Jiakang, Shan Feng, and Hu Boyong drank together. With the help of wine, Wang Kun said: "Mr. Hu is really accurate, Tong Wannian's family members have indeed traveled by sea." My subordinates followed all the way from Zibo to Longkou, and Tong Wannian's family got on a private boat in Longkou. We intercepted it on the surface of the sea, and we didn't expect that Tong Wannian had looted the people's fat and people's ointment for more than ten years, it was unbelievable, guess how many? Wang Kun stopped and took a sip of wine.

"Senior brother, I'm dying in a hurry halfway through the words, can you not breathe?" Shan Feng was in a hurry. "Damn, I didn't expect Tong Wannian to be so rich. We found 700,000 taels of silver tickets, 60 gold bars, and more than 10 boxes of gold, silver and jewelry on the ship, which was unimaginable. Yan Jiakang said: "There is a way to clear the prefect's mansion in one year, 100,000 snowflakes of silver, which is enough to show how high the hidden income of the prefect's official rank is." Tong Wannian is such a greedy person, and he has been in office in the Zibo prefect for 10 years, and it is not surprising that he has accumulated a lot of wealth. ”

"Brother Ge, according to your orders, we killed several bodyguards, and his family members were unscathed. At present, the silver ticket and the gold and silver treasures are placed in the new town, where my men are guarded for the time being. "Mr. Hu, tomorrow I will accompany Chen Jun to the new town to receive it, and the silver tickets and gold bars will be returned, and the other jewels will be left in the new town for the time being." "Master Ge, how do you explain this matter to Jun Chen?" Hu Boyong asked. "No need to explain, if Mr. Chen asks, you just say you don't know and let him ask me."

Yan Jiakang seemed to remember something and continued: "Mr. Hu, you ask Chen Jun to allocate 100,000 taels of silver tickets to Brother Wang." "Brother Ge! Why is that? "Brother Wang, you have to continue to expand your followers and buy rifles one after another." "I understand!" Qiu Ying didn't enjoy playing in Zhou Village and returned to Qiujiazhuang, saying that she wanted to train a women's army. That's fine, Brother Wang, you selected 30 of the new recruits to go to Qiujiazhuang for military training? "What does that mean?"

"I heard Mr. Seifort say that General Beken, the commander of the German army in Qingdao, wants to form a Chinese team in order to strengthen the security of Qingdao, and I want to put our people in it and strive to control the Chinese team in the future. I've already agreed with Mr. Seifort that he'll help then. "Lord Ge is taking precautions this time, and in the future, the Qingdao Chinese team will be in our hands, and there will be no harm in all benefits." Hu Boyong praised. "Brother Ge, can you let Qiu Ying train?" Wang Kun was confused.

"You underestimate her, it's clear when you have time to meet the female guards she trains." Single-peak mysterious.

"Recently, I'm going to teach in the southern suburbs lecture hall, and I'm afraid I'm going to be busy for a while. Mr. Hu, the affairs of the county government are entrusted to you and Lord Xie, there are no special circumstances. Don't bother me. ”
