Looking at her children, Maria's face was full of endless love, but her eyes were still so calm: "Spain is my motherland, I have never forgotten this, but I am also Liang Pengfei's wife, the wife of the king of the East, I can accept the honorific title of Queen of Spain, even if my father is gone, I can agree that my mother and her lover will continue to rule Spain, but this does not mean that Spain can easily get what it needs." [No pop-up novel network] understand? My most loyal chief of guards. ”

"My union with my husband is not a political marriage, and I hate that you always talk about the kingdoms of Europe, but even so, what king in the West would sell the interests of his country in exchange for the heart of his wife or lover?"

"Don't take my husband for a fool, if that happens, the situation in Spain will be even worse, well, I need to be alone with my children, I hope you will tell those people, don't try to hit me, or my children, or ......" Maria stood up, and now she regained the majesty and pride of an eldest princess.

"Yes, Your Highness, please allow me to retire first." Lieutenant Colonel José put his legs together, saluted María respectfully, and left quietly.

Not long after Lieutenant Colonel Jose left, Liang Pengfei staggered over with his hands in his hands, looking at Maria who was strolling by the water with a pair of children, looking at her long wavy hair that was scattered and swaying, and looking at her gentle and loving smiling face, Liang Pengfei's heart was full of peace.

"Finished talking?" Watching Liang Pengfei walk slowly, little Maria and her brother giggled together and opened their arms to Liang Pengfei, looking at Liang Pengfei who was holding a pair of children around, the smile on Maria's face became sweeter and sweeter, and her plump lips curved a beautiful arc.

"Yes, to be honest, this guy Villa is really a good diplomat, although he is greedy, but he is still full of loyalty to the Kingdom of Spain in his bones, which I admire." Liang Pengfei walked up to Maria with a pair of children in his arms and said with a smile.

"You know I hate politics and diplomacy, and I'm not interested in these things, and I don't want to be interested in them." Maria reached out and hugged Liang Pengfei's neck, and gently kissed Liang Pengfei on the lips.

"I know, but it is your homeland after all, my dear Majesty the Queen, and for your sake and for the sake of the future of our sons and daughters, I will not make Spain a vassal of the European powers, I assure you." Liang Pengfei stretched out his hand and stroked Maria's smooth face like silk satin, and said with infinite warmth.

Maria didn't speak again, just smiled, hugged her lovely daughter tightly, and leaned her head on Liang Pengfei's broad and secure shoulder.

“…… At present, in addition to the special 1st division is still stationed here, the 91st Division has moved to the front line of Guangping Mansion in Zhili, and with the Shengjing deputy capital of the Heilongjiang General De Su Tai who supports the troops in Kaifeng, Henan Province, encountered in the area of Handan, the two sides exchanged fierce fire, De Shou Tai Department 50,000 green battalions, more than 5,000 people killed in battle, more than 10,000 escapees, more than 30,000 prisoners, Delentai killed himself, the general Guan Cheng, the general army Zhushenbao and other generals all surrendered. In addition, the 92nd Division quickly entered Shanxi, Shanxi Governor and Admiral Ming Xingyuan led the army to save the Beijing Division, but was blocked by our 92nd Division in the Pingxing Pass, three days later, Ming Xing knew that the Beijing Division had fallen, Manchurian, Forbidden Eight Banners were all surrendered, so he led the crowd to surrender, my 92nd Division has now been stationed in Taiyuan, the original Shanxi Green Battalion soldiers and horses are being reorganized, and the eliminated ones are preparing to be incorporated into the engineer sequence. ”

One after another, the good news was quickly concentrated in Yanjing through fast horses and carrier pigeons, and concentrated in the hands of Liang Pengfei's General Staff.

For example, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Funing, transferred Gan and Shaanxi soldiers and horses to aid the Beijing Division, but the Shaanxi Governor Yang Yuchun delayed on the grounds of inconvenience due to foot disease, but secretly instructed the general army of Hanzhong Town to put Funing garrison in Zhaohua, Sichuan on strict guard, but he sent people to secretly contact the 92nd Division stationed in Taiyuan, it seems that he wants to surrender, but the price has not been negotiated, this Admiral Yang is also a tiger general, and he has also been with Fukangan for a long time, and he has also dealt with Liang Pengfei in the past.

In addition, the Jin merchants have long taken over with the merchants in Guangdong, and under the mutually beneficial cooperation between the two sides, they have a great understanding of Liang Pengfei's strength, and almost after knowing that Yanjing City let Liang Pengfei take it, and the news that the Manchu political axe was overthrown reached Shanxi, the Jin merchants have already made a decision, whether it is for the peace of their hometown, or in order to get more returns in the hands of Liang Pengfei in the future, they decided to stand on the side of the Liang family.

provided a large amount of supplies and grain and grass for the Liang family's army, and used all the means in his hands to help the Liang family's army. You must know that Shanxi and Shaanxi merchants in order to fight against the needs of Hui merchants and other merchants, often take advantage of the advantages of neighboring provinces, combined with each other, and even collectively called Western merchants or Shanxi merchants, although later because of interests made them begin to divide internally, but the relationship between the merchants of the two provinces is still very close, with the good relationship between the Jin merchants and the Shaanxi merchants, the Shanxi merchants as an intermediary, began to take the lead for the Liang Jiajun and Yang Yuchun.

After the death of Fukangan, the new governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Funing, was very dissatisfied with this self-sustaining and talented general, and the contradiction between the two, coupled with the appearance of Liang Jiajun, also made Yang Yuchun find himself with a new choice.

The commander of the 92nd Division did not dare to slack off on this situation and immediately reported the situation.

Funing, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, was furious and led a large army to ask Yang Yuchun, but was blocked by Mu Kedenbu, the governor of Gansu, and turned to Huairou, as if he wanted Yang Yuchun to change his mind.

After all, the soldiers and horses of Ganshan can be regarded as the most capable green battalion of the two provinces among the Qing soldiers, if the more than 30,000 soldiers and horses of the green battalion who stayed in Shaanxi are transferred to the command of Liang Pengfei, then the rear of the army of Funing, which is fighting against the White Lotus Sect in Sichuan, will inevitably be worried.

After the death of the former governor of Yungui and Lin, he ordered the Minister of the Guard, El Le Dengbao, to take over his post, but he had not yet arrived, but he had received an edict from Qianlong to tell him that the Qing Dynasty was over, what should he do, and El Dengbao, the brother of El Dengbao, was actually under the escort of his own soldiers, and left the army to go north overnight, and a month later, he surrendered to Yanjing City.

Before the destruction of Yanjing City, the governor of Yunnan and the governor of Yunnan could not resist the repeated attacks of several divisions of the Liang army, and led the people to surrender.

Counting the Zhili that has been taken, in the territory controlled by the former Manchu Qing Dynasty, the power of the Liang Jiajun can be regarded as occupying half of the country, and the area where the White Lotus Sect and the officers and soldiers in the Yangtze River valley are fighting fiercely, the Liang Jiajun has taken the initiative to stop at the periphery, and it seems that there is no interest in attacking these war-torn areas.

Hunan Governor E Hui, Huguang Governor Yongbao, Zhengbai Banner Han Army Deputy Commander, Hubei Governor Sun Qingcheng, Deputy Governor Le Lishan, Buddha Zhu, General Mingming, these generals, who have as little as tens of thousands and as many as 100,000 soldiers and horses, now seem to be a little dazed and at a loss to stop the momentum of attacking the White Lotus Sect, but if they want them to surrender, they seem to feel unwilling and very tangled in their hearts.

"Still can't fight, at least now we don't have to force them into fists." Chief of General Staff Chen Tianbao took off his reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, rubbed his eyebrows and smiled.

"But if you don't fight, then the people in Huguang and Sichuan will be killed." Zhao Yi, the chief adviser of the General Staff, stroked his gray brows, and said a little unwillingly.

"But our current strength is insufficient, although we are confident that we have the ability to deal with these enemies, but if they are forced to join forces in a hurry, it will be very disadvantageous for us, in addition, those White Lotus Sects are still eyeing us, we can't put ourselves in danger." Wang Jing stood up to refute his teacher's words, in exchange for a roll of his eyes, and an expression of looking for a cigarette from your kid, he could only smile dryly and retract his position and keep silent.

"Fighting is to be fought, it does not depend on whether the timing is right, now, the situation in our newly occupied areas is still unstable, too rapid expansion, it is not good for us, moreover, a large number of political axe staff have not yet been equipped in place, even if we have laid new territory, but we can only continue to appoint those corrupt officials, is this feasible?" Sun Shijie also stood up and expressed his opinion.

"In this way, let's move the intelligence stations in all provinces, and see what those guys are planning, now that He Shen has gone to Jiangsu, I think that Jiangsu, Anhui and Jiangxi should be able to be controlled, plus Zhejiang and Hangzhou have fallen into my hands, we are equivalent to completing a strategic encirclement." Liang Pengfei stood up, walked to the huge map hanging on the wall, and happily picked up a whip and drew a circle along the edge of the map.

Liang Pengfei's eyes finally fell on the Shaanxi Province, and the whip in his hand poked the map of Shaanxi: "As for Yang Yuchun's conditions, it's nothing to promise him, to be honest, let alone the division commander, even if I give him an army, he can afford it." ”

"Yang Yuchun is indeed a general, if he can lead the army to submit to us, then it will be more convenient for our later work." A staff officer who looked at Yang Yuchun's personal information in his hand nodded and said.

Just when Liang Jiajun was discussing the changes in the situation in the world and planning strategies, in Xiantao, Hubei, the base camp of the White Lotus Sect, there were hundreds of thousands of White Lotus Sect troops, and Liu Zhixie, who was regarded as the king of heaven by the White Lotus Sect in the world, was also discussing the current situation with his subordinates fiercely at this moment.

And among them, there is actually an old acquaintance of Wu Ping, the commander of the cavalry division of the Liang Family Army, and Li Zhengdao, the chief of staff of the division, who was called the head of the White Lotus Sect of Zhili in the past, and now he is a powerful military division under the seat of the Heavenly King Liu Zhixie.
