Five assassins were killed, and the three panicked coachmen were also controlled by the guards, Yan Xueyi knew that there must be assassins who wanted to assassinate him along the way, and only the ones that were close could be found, and it was difficult for Yan Xueyi to find them if they were far away. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The highway couldn't be blocked like this, leaving only three coachmen, Yan Xueyi let the rest of the people leave, and the road was restored to smoothness, in the process, Yan Xueyi never found the assassin again.

This is the first assassination against Yan Xueyi, as the ruler of Siqi, Yan Xueyi understands that there will be no fewer assassinations, but he didn't expect the assassination to come so late.

The mastermind behind the assassination of Yan Xueyi does not need to guess, it must be the Manchu court, and it is the Manchu Qing Dynasty that wants Yan Xueyi to die the most, so that the "short-haired thief" will have civil strife, and the Manchu Qing will encircle and exterminate the "short-haired thief" without much effort.

More than half an hour later, Yan Xuecai personally arrived with more than 100 policemen and a battalion of Han troops, leaving Yan Xueyi speechless for a while, do you need to make such a big move?

Yan Xueyi drove Yan Xuecai and most of the others away, leaving only Liu Jixing, the chief of the Yuanhe City Police Department, and about 20 policemen to clean up the scene, and then even Yan Xueyi left.

went straight to the First Hospital of Yuanhe City, the seriously injured guard Li Xiang had completed the operation, and the bullet in his body was taken out, but after Li Xiang's body recovered, his physical condition could not make him continue to serve as Yan Xueyi's bodyguard, Yan Xueyi did not disturb Li Xiang, who was still resting after the operation, and left after visiting for a while.

A few days later, Li Xiang on the hospital bed received a reward from Yan Xueyi, ten new editions of one hundred taels of banknotes, and an order to become an instructor in the new barracks after his body recovered, which made the big man lying on the hospital bed burst into tears. As for the other guard, who was slightly wounded, he was rewarded with a hundred taels.

The police station had already come out of the interrogation of the three drivers who were driving, and some people threatened them with their families and asked them to cooperate with the assassins, but the drivers didn't know much about it, and then the police found the bodies of the three drivers' families, and learned that the family members were dead, and the three drivers couldn't cry, and the three drivers were coerced to death because they participated in the assassination of Yan Xueyi, although they were coerced to death, but they would face decades of hard labor (indefinitely) in the future.

The police department guessed that the assassins sent by the Manchus were able to penetrate deep into Yuanhe City, and there must have been the help of forces within the four provinces, but the assassins were all dead, and the coachman did not know about these things, and all the clues were interrupted.

The assassination of the King of Han occurred, and Cao Wenbin, the Minister of Intelligence, was questioned from all sides.

Military: "What's going on with your intelligence department?" How did you let so many assassins lurk in Siqi and even Yuanhe City? ”

Official: "The millions of taels of silver allocated to the Ministry of Intelligence every year are fed to the rice bucket?" ”

Other: "Cao Wenbin made such a big mistake, he should reappoint the head of the intelligence department and rectify the intelligence department." ”

It is conceivable how much pressure Cao Wenbin is under, especially when Yan Xueyi is about to be the king, how can there be an assassination of Yan Xueyi.

Cao Wenbin was furious, and his subordinates also suffered, working overtime until late at night every day, preparing to carry out a large-scale operation to find all the minions of the Manchu Qing and even foreign forces in Siqi Province, and these people must not be allowed to affect Yan Xueyi to become king.

Since the cable telegraph line has been laid to the cities of Siqi Province, the assassination of Yan Xueyi has also spread to the Han army, and the Han soldiers who got the news were furious, and then the Han army departments continued to send war telegrams, wanting to take revenge on the Manchus.

Yan Xueyi thought about it for a while, and allowed all units of the Han army to fight, but it was not allowed to fight in a big way, but to launch a "small-scale" offensive against the Manchus for the purpose of training troops, and it was not allowed to hurt ordinary people.

The 20,000 new recruits recruited after the Han army occupied Siqi Province have all been trained and become official Han soldiers, and the Han army, which originally had four brigades and one regiment, has also expanded into eight brigades and one regiment, and the eight brigades are numbered from the first brigade to the eighth brigade, the first four brigades are two-thirds veterans and one-third recruits, and the last four brigades are one-third veterans and two-thirds recruits.

In order to quickly restore the combat effectiveness of all units of the Han army, Yan Xueyi allowed all units of the Han army to fight and conduct low-intensity battles, so that the recruits could quickly adapt to the battlefield.

All units of the Han army received the order and formulated battle plans one after another to prepare for the attack.

More than a week later, Yan Xueyi received a good report from all units of the Han army, capturing 36,000 people and seizing grain and grass.

Thirty-six thousand prisoners meant 36,000 more coolies in four quarters, but if there were 36,000 prisoners, was this still a "low-intensity" battle?

However, the various departments of the Han army said: "As soon as our army attacked, the enemy was in chaos, either abandoning the city and fleeing or kneeling and surrendering, which is why there were so many prisoners and captures." ”

In the face of such a good news, Yan Xueyi couldn't laugh or cry, but fortunately, the casualties of the Han army were very small, and the total number of dead and serious injuries was less than 30 people, and the Manchu army was indeed about to collapse at the touch of a button except for other places, and the Han army did not have several fierce battles.

Faced with such a situation, Yan Xueyi had no choice but to let go of those Han army officers who "violated the order", but a reprimand order was indispensable, and these officers could not be allowed to go up to the sky.

On the other hand, the large-scale operation of the Ministry of Intelligence is also slowly unfolding, starting from Yuanhe City, to various areas of Siqi Province, there are constantly Manchu or foreign spies have been found out, their fate has been determined, torture and use information, and then kill all of them, even if they are foreigners.

In addition to these things, there was another thing that attracted Yan Xueyi's attention, that is, because Yan Xueyi made a move to separate the heads of the five assassins, which was publicized by the masses as "The King of Han has the blessing of God, and anyone who dares to attack the King of Han has only a dead end." ”。

The masses didn't know that Yan Xueyi used his ability to divide the heads of the five assassins, but thought that God was protecting the Han King, and finally the "rumor" Yu Lie passed on Yu Lie, and it became "The Han King is the true son of heaven, don't you see that the heavens are protecting the Han King?" Even the heavens hope that the king of Han will drive out the Tatars as soon as possible and restore the rivers and mountains of my Han family. ”。

Yan Xueyi couldn't cry or laugh at such a thing, even the two wives and a few little maids around Yan Xueyi heard these "rumors", and when they were fine, they stared at Yan Xueyi carefully, as if they could see something.

Yan Xueyi knew that behind this increasingly fierce "rumor" there must be those officials under his command who were fueling the trouble, otherwise it would not have spread in the entire Siqi Province in such a short period of time, and even the surrounding provinces of Siqi Province also had rumors.

Yan Xueyi didn't want to stop it, and he had a little more mythology on himself, which was conducive to the rule of Siqi Province.

In this way, time passed day by day, and the day when Yan Xueyi became king was coming.
