When Xianfeng heard this, he looked at Monk Greenqin, what Guo Ye said was really a little scary, and even the two ladies on the side were very surprised, with one enemy and five, this little guy can really brag!

Monk Greenqin hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there should be no problem with what Guo Ye said, you don't know yet, just two days ago, the minister also had a competition with Guo Ye, and in the end, the old minister lost in disgrace, and it was very embarrassing ......."

Xianfengden was a little shocked, and asked in surprise: "Monk King, even you are not Guo Ye's opponent?" ”

Monk Greenqin smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, I can't hide it, some time ago, when Shi Rongchun was inspecting Dagukou, he stumbled upon Guo Ye, and then allowed him to train the soldiers of the North Fort of Dagukou. The minister's personal guard leader was a little unconvinced, and wanted to compete with Guo Ye, so he took out a hundred elites from the minister's personal guard battalion and competed with the fifty people who Guo Ye had trained, and as a result, he was defeated and lost, and even He Qimou, the personal guard counselor, was beaten by the fifty recruits, and his nose was swollen and he fell to the ground......"

Hiss......

Xianfeng gasped, after only one and a half months of training, he could fight against the elite soldiers of the monk king with one enemy and two! And they won! This guy seems to really underestimate him!

Prince Gong on the side? The light in his eyes flickered, and he glanced at Monk Greenqin meaningfully, and then refixed his eyes on Sen Greenqin's body.

As for Ci'an and Cixi beside Xianfeng, the two mothers were also full of brilliance in their eyes, and they were impressed by this young guy, and Cixi on the side said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, the concubine wants to congratulate you on getting such a strong general, since this Guo Shen Ling is so capable, it is better to allow him to form a commanding firearms battalion, and the most powerful army will naturally be placed in the hands of the most talented general." ”

Xianfeng couldn't help but nod and said: "Okay, pass the decree, add Guo Ye as a first-class imperial guard, allow him to walk in the palace, and specialize in training firearms battalions, as for the station......"

Guo Ye hurriedly said: "Weichen Xie Lord Longen, the emperor, the minister still has a word......"

Xianfeng was slightly surprised, and replied, "Speak!" ”

Guo Ye replied: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the firearms battalion is strong, not only has the heavy responsibility of protecting the capital, but also has the important task of driving Tianjin and protecting Dagukou......

The monk Greenqin on the side was overjoyed, Guo Ye's kid's head is aura, even if the firearms battalion stays in the capital? In the area close to Tongxian, it is only more than 200 miles away from Tianjin, and if you march quickly, it only takes more than a day to arrive! With the help of the firearms battalion, why are you afraid of foreigners!

Monk Greenqin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Guo Ye said is reasonable, and choosing the boundary of Tongzhou, one can protect the Beijing Division, and the other can deter the Bohai Sea, which is really wonderful!" ”

Xianfeng nodded and replied, "Tongxian? It's okay, but it seems that it's still a little far away from the capital, once there is something in the capital, I'm afraid that the far water will be difficult to solve the near fire......"

Prince Gong on the side? I really can't stand it, what's more, you're still the emperor, do you have a little bit of the courage and insight of the Holy Grandfather? Stationed in Tong County, this can be said to be a brilliant idea, if it is really stationed in Sijiu City, what use can it be? When the foreigners' foreign guns and cannons hit the city of Beijing, they are being used, so what is the use of a fart?

It's just that Prince Gong has talent and courage, but he is quite jealous and suspicious of Xianfeng, and Prince Gong is really not suitable for such a thing.

Guo Ye continued: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that from Tongxian to the capital, but more than 100 miles, even if you march on foot, within half a day, you can reach the city of Beijing, if you configure war horses for the firearms battalion, from Tongxian to the capital, I am afraid that it will only take more than an hour to arrive, no matter what happens, the firearms battalion will come in time!" ”

Not......

Equipping a firearms battalion with horses?

The firearms battalion is an establishment of 800 people, and they can get enough 800 war horses, which is a lot of silver, not only this, but the future salary will be three parts, one soldier, two horse salaries!

However, what Guo Ye said is indeed true, with such a powerful combat power, it is natural to increase the convenience as much as possible.

Xianfeng said in a low voice: "What Aiqing said is not unreasonable, but this war horse ......"

Monk Greenqin hurriedly replied on the side: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that there is a lack of good horses in the capital, these eight hundred war horses, the minister can raise them from the Horqin Mongolian Eight Banners, and he can even allocate a batch of war horses from the minister's cavalry to the firearms battalion first, Your Majesty, stationed in Tongxian, this is a big deal that kills two birds with one stone!" ”

Xianfeng looked at Monk Greenqin in order to let Guo Ye put the firearms camp in Tongzhou, and even came up with such a method, it was really a little unbearable, after all, the transfer of horses from Horqin was also the private property of Monk Greenqin!

Cixi on the side also persuaded on the side: "Your Majesty, it's better to follow the monk king......

Xianfeng turned his head and glared at Cixi fiercely, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, this is the rule left by the ancestors, and now in front of the princes and ministers, Cixi has spoken repeatedly, which is really a bit excessive.

Cixi stuck out her tongue delicately, her face was slightly red, the Empress Dowager Cixi at this time was only ten years old, where could she be vicious and calculating in the future? Cixi said secretly, what's wrong today? A little hairy boy actually messed up his own way! It's really ......

Xianfeng replied: "Okay, just according to the meaning of the monk king and Guo Ye, the monk king, first allocate 500 horses from your army, and we will also take out 300 in the capital, and allocate them to the firearms battalion together, from now on, Guo Ye is responsible for selecting people from each battalion to form a firearms battalion, Guo Ye, you really call this power in your hands, you want to drive me out!" ”

In fact, Xianfeng has some regrets now, a firearms battalion, extraordinary combat power, can be against the enemy of five Beijing battalions, such strength can already affect the combat power pattern of the capital, it is by no means an ordinary large battalion can be compared, such an important force, it is actually in the hands of a Han people, it is really a little hasty, but since the words have been exported, it is impossible to change it.

"The minister obeys the order, please rest assured that the minister is covered with liver and gall, liver and brain, and it is difficult to report the emperor's grace, and the minister must guard the capital for the emperor, so that a kind of small dare not watch!"

Guo Ye hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.
