Chapter 330: Easy Pacification

The rebellion on the Zhenyuan was suppressed, but the matter was not over, the rebellion of the Pacific Fleet did not only occur on the Zhenyuan, but also on the battleships such as the Dingyuan, Laiyuan, and Zhiyuan, and the middle and upper officers were persuading the lower-level officers and soldiers to rebel, coercing and inducing, and all kinds of means were used together.

The lower-ranking officers and soldiers of the old-style military were basically loyal to Yan Xueyi, because their family's life was much better than during the Manchu Dynasty, and just to repay this, they also had to be loyal to Yan Xueyi.

However, under the various means of coercion and inducement, a small number of people who were not determined to be firm took the lead in turning to the rebels.

When they heard the gunshot of the Zhenyuan, the rebels knew that it was the people on the Zhenyuan who started to act, and according to the plan, Lin Taizeng had already controlled Yan Xueyi and his party at this time, or killed them directly.

The rebels told the lower ranks of officers and soldiers that the emperor was gone, to whom should they be allegiant? So some of them joined the rebels.

A gunshot rang out on the Zhenyuan, and the soldiers on the other new warships immediately became alert, and the captains didn't know why the gunshots rang out, so they left to send people to investigate, but there was no result for the time being.

On the Zhenyuan, a blue flag was raised, which was a signal for the rebels' actions, and the blue flag represented that the emperor had been captured and could start the next move.

In addition to capturing the emperor, the rebels also had to take over the new warship, but the control of the warship was not in their hands, and the easiest way to receive the new warship was to threaten the emperor's life and threaten the soldiers on the new warship to surrender.

Since the old-style soldiers decided to rebel, why didn't they control Yan Xueyi and the others on the first battleship Dingyuan when Yan Xueyi and his party inspected it, but waited until Yan Xueyi and the others got on the second battleship Zhenyuan before starting to act?

In fact, the rebels have a greater degree of control over the Zhenyuan than the Dingyuan, which means that the possibility of an accident on the Zhenyuan is the lowest, and Lin Tai was the number one person in the rebels of the Pacific Fleet, so the rebels waited until Yan Xueyi and others got on the Zhenyuan before they started to act.

After the Zhenyuan hung the blue flag, the flag bearer of the Zhenyuan began to wave the signal flag, demanding that the new warships surrender, of course, the signal flag could transmit too little information, so according to the plan, the Zhenyuan battleship began to send personnel to the new warships, threatening the emperor's life, demanding the surrender of the new warships.

However, after the situation of the Zhenyuan was reversed, under the order of Yan Xueyi, personnel were sent to other new warships and asked them to pretend to surrender, so that damage could be avoided to a certain extent.

It didn't take long for the new warships to fly the white flags, and the battleships turned off and appeared to surrender.

Then, the other rebels of the warship had a certain degree of success in persuading the lower-ranking officers and soldiers, and some of the battleships had already displayed yellow flags, which meant that the rebels had taken complete control of the warships, and although there were still people on the warships who were unwilling to defect to the rebels, such people had been completely controlled.

After the remaining warships were hoisted with yellow flags, the rebels began the next step, sending personnel to board the new warships and control the new warships, which had already pretended to surrender, and this step was successfully completed, and the soldiers on the new warships had been controlled.

In the end, the flag bearer on the Zhenyuan sent a signal to the captains of the warships, who were the main figures of the rebels, to come to the Zhenyuan to discuss the next move.

Don't look at the rebels joining the "Removing Beauty" Alliance, in fact, the two sides are using each other, the rebels did not obey the orders of the "Removing Beauty" Alliance, and after the rebels complete the control of the Pacific Fleet, the Pacific Fleet will first control the Ryukyus, and then send troops to Taiwan, and control Taiwan, this is the capital of the rebels, with the largest fleet in the empire, enough to hold the two islands of Ryukyu and Taiwan, and then plot against the mainland.

After the signal was issued, the rebel high-level did not hesitate, and immediately left the ship and went to the Zhenyuan, while Yan Xueyi and others had already put on a posture on the Zhenyuan and waited for the arrival of these rebels.

The first to come to the Zhenyuan battleship was the captain of the Dingyuan battleship Li Dingxin, Li Dingxin took two of his men to board the Zhenyuan, and when he was about to walk to the deck, Li Dingxin smiled and arched his hands to say a few words of congratulations to Lin Taizeng, but Li Dingxin looked up and did not see Lin Taizeng, but saw dozens of black holes with muzzles.

"Hands up, don't think about running away!" A junior officer on the Zhenyuan said solemnly.

"Lin Taizeng, what do you want to do?" As soon as Li Dingxin finished saying this, he was gagged by a soldier, took away the pistol on Li Dingxin's body, and then escorted Li Dingxin to the back, and the two subordinates behind Li Dingxin were treated the same.

When Li Dingxin saw Yan Xueyi sitting on the chair and Cheng Ying and others standing next to him, Li Dingxin seemed to understand something, and his face was like ashes.

Then the high-level rebels walked up to the Zhenyuan battleship in turn, although there were many accidents on the way, fortunately, all the high-level rebels were caught, and finally all these high-level rebels knelt at the feet of Yan Xueyi.

Some rebels kept kowtowing, babbling: "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life." ”

There are also like Li Dingxin, kneeling on the ground without saying a word, and their faces are like ashes.

The rebel high-ranking faction didn't know what had happened on the Zhenyuan before, but now that they saw Yan Xueyi and the ministers unharmed, and Lin Taizeng was nowhere to be seen, they knew that their plan had failed, and Lin Taizeng was very likely to be dead.

As a rebel, intending to kill the emperor and rebel is a felony of the Jiu clan, not only will they die, but even their relatives will be involved, and no one will be spared.

At this point, what else is there to beg for mercy, no matter how much they beg for mercy, their fate has already been decided.

Very easily, Yan Xueyi solved the time of the Pacific Fleet's old-style military rebellion, and all those who participated in the rebellion were killed, and their three clans were reduced to criminals, and both men and women needed to be castrated, and no offspring were allowed.

Liu Buyun, commander of the Pacific Fleet, was guilty of negligence, dismissed from his post as commander, and transferred to the post of adviser to the Admiralty, and Liu Buyun's second-class earl title was removed from the first rank and became a second-class son.

Originally, Liu Buyun would be demoted to a commoner because even if he didn't die, but he didn't expect the emperor to just demote himself, although there was no chance to climb to a high position in the future, but this was already a great grace to Liu Buyun, Liu Buyun knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed to Yan Xueyi again and again, and the bloodstains appeared again.

Liu Buyun was removed from the post of commander, the commander of the Pacific Fleet was replaced by Yan Ying, and the deputy commander was replaced by Lewis, Yan Xueyi did not punish Yan Ying much, only fined him half a year's salary, and because of the rebellion of the old military, the Pacific Fleet has been completely taken over by the naval system cultivated by the Chinese Empire itself.

Although the strength of the Pacific Fleet will be greatly reduced if so many people are killed, the Chinese Empire has never used its naval strength to deter Western countries, and it will not take a few years for the Pacific Fleet to recover its combat strength, and even the strength of the Pacific Fleet will be greatly increased because of the new warships that are constantly in service.

The matter of the Pacific Fleet is solved, but the matter is not over, there is still the South China Sea Fleet, and the hidden rebels across the country, all of which need to be solved by Yan Xueyi.
