The cold wind is biting, the snowflakes are flying, and the people in the besieged capital are even more panicked at this time, and everyone has a sense of impending disaster. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

For Prince Gong Yixun, who stayed in the capital, others can be afraid, others can be panicked, but he can't, just because he knows better than others that others can descend, but as Prince Gong of the Great Qing Dynasty, he can't descend.

Although he is not the emperor, after the emperor hunted in the north, Yixun, who was ordered to stay in the capital, was the backbone of the capital at this time, and naturally this Gongwang Mansion became the military aircraft in the capital at this time.

After getting up and washing and eating a bowl of bird's nest porridge, Yixun first read the recital in the city as usual, and the first thing was the recital handed over by the commander of the infantry army: "There are people in the outer city who are grabbing food...... and self-pleasing. ”

This was an extremely bad sign, and for Yi Xun, who was afraid that the Han people in the city and the Taiping army outside the city would become one, he realized the danger almost immediately, so he did not hesitate to take the pen and give instructions in person.

"Order the main rebel people to be punished, and they must not be allowed to merge with bandits outside the city!"

After a moment of quiet thought, Yixun commanded again:

"Have they arrived? Call it up right away. ”

Although Mu Yin was left by Yixun to accompany him to "stay", now, among the remaining ministers in the capital, the most prominent minister is the minister of military aircraft who was left behind by Yixun. But now the two of them have abandoned their previous suspicions, and the cooperation between the two and Jingzhong is also intimate.

In fact, although the two of them were a little unhappy before, it did not prevent the two of them from devoting themselves wholeheartedly to defending the city at this time, after all, they were all banner people, in case those bandits entered the city, none of them could save their heads, and the threat of reality made them have to cooperate with each other intimately.

And more importantly, for Mu Yin, who stayed in Beijing, he had seen that the prestige of King Gong and Jingzhong was increasing, and he even had the support of the people of Jingzhong, but in contrast, that lord fled north in a panic. Coupled with the news that came from the outside before, Mu Yin secretly felt that maybe this was also an opportunity.

As soon as the front foot entered the house, I saw that King Gong's spirit was not as vigorous as before, and his expression seemed to be a little sluggish. Mu Yin hurriedly took the lead in saluting, only to hear Yi Xun ask directly:

"You haven't slept all night, have you?"

"Yes!"

Mu Yin, Monk Lin Geqin and others all replied in unison.

"Mu Junji, what is the situation in the city now?"

Yi Xun paused for a moment and said:

"It is said that there are Han people in the city to grab grain, in case there is chaos in the city, and when the time comes, it will cooperate with the bandits outside the city, how can this capital be defended? In this way, the Great Qing Kingdom that the ancestors had fought so hard to defeat must be lost in our hands! ”

"Yes!"

Mu Yin hurriedly replied.

"This matter can only be instructed to command the infantry army to suppress the yamen."

"What bullet pressure? Strictly take the Fa-rectification! ”

Yi Xun shouted:

"Monk Lin Geqin!"

"In!"

Although he is also the king, now the monk Lin Geqin is under the orders of King Gong.

"What do you say?"

"This matter must be done quickly, and this sign must not be allowed to spread, otherwise, this capital will be destroyed in its hands."

"Fast, of course."

Yi Xun said seriously:

"What this king means is that if you send more troops in, you will do it in earnest, and you must kill those personal disorders."

Because there are only a dozen or less than 200,000 Han people in the city, and the other nearly 900,000 are all banner people, Yixun is not worried about chaos in the city, the only thing he is worried about is that these people collude with the outside of the city, and at that time, the capital will not be able to be saved.

After thinking for a moment, Monk Lin Geqin replied:

"I can send more people to the Shenji Camp and the Tiger God Battalion, and I also need to send more people to patrol the streets."

Yi Xun understood his intentions, so he nodded and said:

"Just do this, we must not let there be chaos in this city, at this time, we can't afford it! How's going out of the city now? ”

Then everyone began to talk about the city defense, although now the Taiping army is not as fierce as it was at the beginning because of the victory of the Taiping army outside the city, but everyone knows that this is just a respite, Xiang Rong did not lead the troops outside the city to tear apart the Taiping army, during which he almost broke through the camp of the Cantonese bandits many times, but what can be done, in the end, Wuchang is not still taken by the bandits.

It is precisely because of this that they will not be lax because of Shengbao's counterattack, which can't pin all their hopes on Shengbao's body, and even because of this, Yixun has refused the request of Seng Lin Geqin to go out of the city and join forces with Shengbao several times, and only a team like Seng Lin Geqin in this capital is still brave. As for the hundreds of thousands of Jingying, what they are relying on now is just a temporary blood courage to protect their families.

As an order, after the others left, Wen Qing, who was the minister of affairs in Beijing, stayed. Although Xianfeng left the capital, he ordered Yixin to stay in the city for defense, and seemed to be given the right to control and defend the city's civil and military ministers, but he left many people to restrain his rights and responsibilities, and Wenqing, as an old minister of the Three Dynasties, was one of them.

However, unlike Xianfeng's expectations, although Wenqing was used to restrain Yixun and prevent him from being autocratic, in fact, in many insights, he had something in common with Yixun, such as after the bandits were rampant, he advocated the reuse of Hanchen, believing that Hanchen came from the field and knew the people's suffering. It is often a secret request to break the view of the Manchurian and Han domains, and to employ people regardless of qualifications. At this point, he and Yixun can be said to have seen the same thing, but this is not the reason why Wen Qing completely fell to Yixun.

"Lord Wang, there's still no news over there!"

Wen Qing looked at Yi Xun and said ominously.

"Oh, now that the capital is surrounded by groups, there is no news, which is expected......"

Yi Xun said helplessly. Wen Qing's mouth on the side, referring to the emperor of the North Hunt, but the emperor was attacked by Cantonese bandits after leaving Beijing, although in the end under the protection of the Heilongjiang horse team, successfully turned the danger into a disaster, but then because the capital was surrounded by regiments, the capital lost contact with the outside.

But it is precisely because of this that the ministers who stayed in the capital will have their minds floating, what is the situation of the emperor now?

Nobody knows!

"Lord, if it is...... Please make plans in advance! ”

Wen Qing's ominous words fell in Yixun's ears, he just snorted, a lot of people said in his ear for a while, the emperor's whereabouts are unknown, if the emperor has a case, in the case of the emperor has no heirs, he Yixun is not the most qualified to be the emperor, he still has the fifth child.

I made a plan in advance, but if the emperor was safe and sound in Rehe, then he would ......

"1. Violating the ancestral system and living in the Old Summer Palace for a long time; 2. The army was defeated and fled, and the country was misled...... Although the imperial court will be in turmoil for a few days, the current situation must be ...... with fierce medicine."

The words of the confidant sounded in Yi Xun's ears again, and he pondered for a moment, then looked at Wen Qing and said.

"Kong Xiu, what is the situation outside now, you and I have no way of knowing, this court can't stand any chaos now!"

Can it stand up to the chaos?

Stand!

For Yixun, what he values is not whether he can be the emperor, but the country of the Qing Dynasty.

"The ancestors have been passed on to our generation for more than 200 years, how difficult it was for the ancestors to lay down this country, if it is destroyed in our hands like this, how can we have the face to see our ancestors at that time? These words...... I haven't talked about it yet! ”

Just when Wen Qing was about to get up and ask for guilt, Yixun grabbed him and said.

"Kong Xiu, this king knows what you mean, you are also for the sake of the Great Qing Kingdom, but right now, the most important thing is to keep this capital, as long as you keep this capital, you can protect the country of the Great Qing Kingdom, don't you say? You say, can we hold this capital? ”

Knowing that King Gong was taking the opportunity to change the topic so as not to embarrass himself, Wen Qing hurriedly replied.

"Lord Wang, there are nearly a million banner people in this capital, as long as we are united in the heart, how can we not hold the capital, and besides, when you ordered the monk to withdraw into the capital, it was a plan, as long as the two thieves of Lin and Li bit this hook, how could it not be as good as the prince thought?"

The "plan" referred to by Wen Qing refers to the fact that after the emperor transferred the Heilongjiang horse team that was originally scheduled to reinforce the capital and the division of King Qin in Fengtian to his side, in view of the lack of defensive forces in the capital, Yi Xun Li advocated the transfer of Lin Geqin, a monk from the Jinghai camp who confronted Lin and Li and the two thieves, to the capital.

It seems that the transfer of monk Lin Geqin into the city is due to insufficient troops, but in fact, it is a ploy of Yixun - he wants to let Lin and Li join Zeng Lichang, so as to provoke the disagreement of the Cantonese bandit generals.

"The thief was originally to reinforce the two thieves of Lin and Li, but he took a detour to take the capital, and now the two thieves of Lin and Li have made peace with it, and the three of them will be in dispute, when the two tigers are fighting, their military spirit is bound to be unstable, and now their siege has slowed down, which shows that the prince's strategy has been successful, as long as the millions of soldiers and civilians in my city are united, how can the Guangdong bandits break the city, and then ......"

After a while, Wen Qing said again.

"Now Gui Liang and Shengbao have gathered troops in the south of the capital, and they have been torn apart with the Cantonese bandits many times, if it weren't for the lack of troops, I'm afraid the siege of the capital has been solved!"

Gui Liang is the governor of Zhili, after the siege of the capital, immediately ordered more than 10,000 regiments of Baoding and more than 20,000 troops led by Shengbao to join forces, to the capital Qin Wang, these days it is with the city continues to attack the Cantonese bandits, if it is not for the strong camp of the Cantonese bandits, I am afraid that the most successful.

"Gui Liang is indeed a loyal and brave minister, even if he wins the guarantee, he will not hide his merits!"

Compared with the fourth brother who looks at the fake benevolence but is actually unkind, Yixun praised Shengbao, and even in his opinion, if Shengbao hadn't led the troops to contain the Cantonese bandits outside the city, I'm afraid the capital would have been gone for a long time. Of course, the more important point is that Gui Liang is his father-in-law!

"As for this situation, the prince doesn't need to worry, just ......"

After a slight pause, Wen Qing looked at Yixun and said.

"The minister is still worried about ...... in the future" (to be continued.) )
