Hearing this, seeing Wang Jie's pretending to be mysterious, He Shen was a little disdainful in his heart, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and he glanced at it, very disdainful, however, Emperor Jiaqing thought it was true, convinced, more like grasping the last straw, and urged in a voice: "Lord Wang, please speak quickly~!" ”

"Your Majesty, the third is to continue to transfer troops from the north and return to the Beijing Division, as long as it drags on for another five to ten days, the Mongolian 100,000 iron cavalry and the garrison outside the pass can arrive, at that time, the imperial court has a certain strength, and has more bargaining chips in negotiations with the anti-thieves. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

He Shen completely retracted his mind and no longer cared about what Wang Jie said, he had been an official for so many years, not only with strong qualifications, in charge of military affairs, but also responsible for diplomacy with foreigners, knowing that the power of firearms today, the iron cavalry of the imperial court was only flesh and blood, and it was impossible to stop the bullets of the anti-thief army, and the loss of the Beijing division was a matter of time.

In the blink of an eye, He Shen's heart began to come alive, secretly calculating, finding a way back for himself, and planning something.

Time passed slowly, and in the whole process, under Wang Jie's words and suggestions, Emperor Jiaqing gradually regained his confidence, no longer so worried, and had no bottom in his heart, as if there was some kind of tacit understanding and consensus, Emperor Jiaqing, Wang Jie, and Zhu Jue no longer paid attention to He Shen, and let him remain silent.

Two days later, in the southwest and southeast directions of Shuntianfu, the two armies were slowly advancing, no longer hiding their own marching routes, and heading straight for their destination, Jingshi.

The army in the southeast direction is the mixed army of the Marine Corps and the Qilin Army led by Yang Lin, nearly 200,000 people, at this time, the large army is marching on the pipeline, and the airships are flying at low altitude, circling forward, reconnoitering the mountains on both sides, among the barren trees and dead grass, is there a potential threat?

Not only that, but the two teams of special forces walked on both sides to conduct reconnaissance, in order to make up for the shortcomings of the airship, the places that could not be seen, in order to ensure that the army would not encounter an ambush.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, the marching team was in good order, and everywhere there was an atmosphere of strict discipline and fierce combat effectiveness.

Yang Lin rode his horse, located in the team, although there is still a certain distance from the vanguard, but it does not affect his line of sight, looking at the situation in front and on both sides, hearing bursts of birdsong one after another, and the flock of birds that are constantly being startled in the distance, hovering in the sky on both sides of the road, you know that the speed of the two special forces teams is not the slightest behind, far ahead, and the path is explored.

At this moment, Yang Lin, who was riding on horseback, suddenly asked, "Mr. Baili, how far is it from Jingshi now?" How long will it take to march to reach Jingshi? ”

asked again and again, Bailihe knew that this was a problem, looking at Yang Lin, who was still believing in the horse, although the expression of the person in front of him was so calm and indifferent, Bailihe could clearly feel the confidence and domineering of the other party.

However, at this moment, Bailihe felt that everything in front of him was a little unreal, as if in a dream, in less than a month, the army crossed the Yellow River north, swept through all parts of Zhili, with the momentum of thunder, lightning strikes, in one fell swoop occupied almost all the areas of Zhili, leaving only one Jingshi dying and struggling.

Before meeting Yang Lin, although Bailihe knew that the other party would definitely be able to overthrow the Qing court, he did not expect that this day would come so quickly, especially the various firearms in Yang Lin's army, he Bailihe was unheard of and unseen, airships, machine guns, mortars, grenades, grenades......

All kinds of firearms, so that Bailihe dazzled, when he was really in the battlefield, watching the army pull out the camp and seize the village, the power of firearms shocked him even more, dumbfounded, not only that, especially Yang Lin's various policies, but also convinced!

"Mr. Baili, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking? Yang Lin's voice sounded again, neither light nor heavy.

After a thousand thoughts, it came to an abrupt end, Bailihe suddenly woke up, immediately realized his gaffe, wandered, and replied almost reflexively: "No, I didn't think about anything..."

Immediately afterwards, Bailihe remembered the initial question and hurriedly replied: "Marshal Qiyu, if it goes well, there will be no delay on the road, and another day of marching, there is still eighty miles to go, and you will be able to enter the territory of the Jingshi." ”

The voice was still lingering, and before Yang Lin could say anything, at this time, an officer said aloud: "Marshal, our current speed of march is a little slow, we can speed up completely, we only need a rapid march, before dark, we can enter the boundary of the Jingshi, and we are not far from the imperial city." ”

"Brigade Commander Zheng, the reason why I asked the army to hurry up and advance at a speed that can't catch up with the usual march is because of my considerations, if there was really such a hurry, I would have ordered the army to speed up the march, if that is the case, maybe we have already entered the realm of the Beijing Division." Yang Lin shook his head slightly, and said like this.

"Then why? Marshal, why should we speed up a little? Brigade Commander Zheng immediately asked, and in his doubts, he was a little unconvinced.

At this time, Yang Lin did not answer immediately, but turned his head to look at his side, indicating something.

Seeing Yang Lin looking at himself and signaling to himself, Zhuge Mou knew that the marshal was letting himself answer. Of course, Zhuge Mou also knew Yang Lin's intentions, why did he have to answer by himself, that is, to increase his run-in with the Qilin Army, just like when Bailihe first entered the army, the marshal provided a lot of performance opportunities, so that the other party could integrate into the team faster and easier and be recognized.

Knowing this, his mind was fleeting, Zhuge Mou smiled gratefully at Yang Lin, and then said: "Brigade Commander Zheng, when the army arrives in Beijing, there will inevitably be a big battle, if we speed up the march, even if we rush to Beijing, it will inevitably cause people to be sleepy and lacking, and it is far away from the labor division, which is not conducive to our army gaining a firm foothold under the imperial city and dealing with any possible threats." ”

"Oh... I understand, such a hurry, when we arrived at the boundary of the Beijing Division, the soldiers of our army still maintained sufficient physical strength and high morale, even if the Qing army suddenly attacked, we would not rush to the battle. Brigade Commander Zheng showed a sudden brightness and nodded slightly.

At this moment, all the generals are clear in their hearts, and there is no longer the intention of urging, and at the same time, they also understand a truth, the speed of soldiers is not eternal, and it is necessary to combine the time, place, and people to achieve a surprising winning effect.

"It's good to understand." Yang Lin said lightly as a closing remark.

No one said a word, they all held their breath, and tried their best to maintain their strength to meet the upcoming big battle.

However, before everyone was quiet, at this moment, I saw a few soldiers in front of me pressing two Qing court officials, the official uniform and long braids of the Qing court looked so prominent and eye-catching, especially in this all-modern army.

Along the way, walking in the opposite direction, the two Qing court officials caused a group of people to frequently look sideways, and soon, the group came to Yang Lin's side, and without waiting for Yang Lin to ask, one of the soldiers immediately said: "Report to the marshal, these two people claim to be officials of the Qing court, and negotiate with you on behalf of the Tartar Emperor." ”

Yang Lin's expression still did not change at all, leisurely, did not respond to the soldier's words, just looked at the two Qing court officials lightly, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it, Yang Lin's eyes contracted, and then returned to normal, he really knew one of them, it was Feng Shen Yinde, and the other was an old man in his prime.

The moment he saw Fengshen Yinde, Yang Lin believed the words of the soldiers, as Qianlong's favorite princess, Fengshen Yinde is also half a royal person, and he can also represent the royal family, and at the same time, he can also understand why there is Fengshen Yinde among the envoys of the Qing court, anyway, his official position in Guangzhou is from the hands of Fengshen Yinde.

Throughout the Qing Dynasty, if the Tartars wanted to negotiate with themselves, there was no more suitable candidate than Feng Shen Yinde.

Although they were acquaintances and recognized Feng Shen Yinde, Yang Lin didn't pay attention to the other party, but raised his eyebrows and asked lightly: "Oh... The Qing court wants to negotiate with me, who are you? And how can I believe it? ”

At this moment, Feng Shen Yinde's face was a little strange, when he looked at Yang Lin, he just wanted to say something, but his lips squirmed, and he didn't make any sound, at this moment, looking at Yang Lin's full confidence, he couldn't help but feel a little bitter.

Yang Lin turned a deaf ear to Feng Shen Yinde's gaze, as if he couldn't see it, and at this time, the old man on the side said: "Presumably this is Yang Leader, under Wang Jie, the envoy, this is my deputy, Feng Shen Yinde, I guess Your Excellency knows." ”

The last sentence, Yang Lin automatically filtered, and said unexpectedly: "Oh, I didn't expect Lord Wang to come out of the prison." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jie's old face was stupid, and just as he wanted to say something, Yang Lin said again: "Lord Wang, I know that you, as one of the few Qing officials in the Qing court, have served the Manchurians all your life. However, in the end, in order to confuse my navy and prevent a large-scale uprising, the Qing court did not hesitate to put you in prison on trumped-up charges, don't you have any complaints? Willing to serve this rotten court? When a lackey full of people? ”

For a while, Wang Jie's face changed greatly, and he was shocked, not because Yang Lin saw through the intentions of Qianlong and He Shen, and sneered at himself, but was shocked, and he didn't expect that the pirates in the southeast were also Yang Lin's subordinates.

At this moment, Wang Jie thought a lot and understood a lot, why the loss of Jiangnan and the southeast region did not reach the capital for a long time, and there may be many reasons why He Shen controlled the government, but the bigger reason was those pirates.

With such a group of tough pirates as his subordinates, Yang Lin is fully capable of blocking the waters of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, although the blockade will not be too long, but it is enough to change some things.

In a trance, Wang Jie understood a little why when he talked about those strategies with the emperor, He Shen showed disdain, it turned out that the other party had already known all this, Yang Lin's subordinates not only had two powerful armies, but also a more extraordinary sailor.

Wang Jie was smiling bitterly, and he was a little self-deprecating, his own actions and suggestions could no longer be called a dying struggle, and the word ugliness was more appropriate.

At the same time, Feng Shen Yinde was very surprised, but he didn't expect Yang Lin to make a generation of famous ministers Wang Jie dumb in just two short sentences. Of course, Fengshen Yinde didn't know what Wang Jie was thinking, but he clearly knew that his trip was burdened and related to the safety of the imperial court.

Secretly gritting his teeth, as if he had made some kind of determination, Feng Shen Yinde looked straight at Yang Lin, and said in a deep voice almost pleadingly: "Leader Yang, can you look at the past feelings, my help to you, temporarily withdraw from the army?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, even Baili River was no longer breezy, and said secretly: "How can this Feng Shen Yinde, as the son of the world's most corrupt official, be so naïve?" ”

Yang Lin didn't smile, and said lightly: "Can't~"

As if he had been stimulated by some kind of stimulation, Feng Shen Yinde's body trembled, his face was a little miserable, and there was a hint of calmness and relaxation, as if he had done his best, and said to himself: "I know, that's why you didn't greet me just now?" I just know that once I open my mouth, I will definitely have such a request. ”

Yang Lin nodded lightly, as if talking to himself, as if explaining, and said softly: "At this time, there is no better time to overthrow the Qing court and restore my Han people's rivers and mountains, how can you give up lightly?" ”

After a pause, Yang Lin's eyes were no longer calm, a little sharp, and he said forcefully: "Fengshen Yinde, you and I are not children anymore, this is not a family, let alone a neighborhood conflict, as long as you take a step back, the sky will be wide." ”

"If I promise you now, temporarily stop the battle and retreat, and when the Qing court recovers, once the Mongolian cavalry in the north and the garrison outside the Guanxi arrive in Beijing, the strength of the Qing court will increase greatly, and at that time, even if I can take the capital, compared to now, I will pay more than ten times the price, if you were me, would you agree to such a request?"

The last question, as if it was a heavy hammer, slammed Feng Shen Yinde's heart, making him feel suffocated, and his mouth muttered, speechless.

Feng Shen Yinde was speechless when asked, not knowing what to say, and for a while, his father's words before leaving sounded: "Don't force it, whether it is successful or not, just do your best." ”

Wang Jie had already woken up from the shock, heard the conversation between Yang Lin and Feng Shen Yinde, from beginning to end, he was silent, did not express any opinions, and saw that the two of them were quiet at the same time, and stopped talking, so he arched his hand and said decisively: "In this case, Leader Yang, then there is no need for us to talk about it, and we will say goodbye!" ”

After that, he was about to pull Feng Shen Yinde away, but was stopped by several soldiers, and suddenly frowned slightly, and asked without looking back: "The two armies are fighting, don't kill them, can't Leader Yang want to keep the two of us?" ”

"Let him go, don't stop him~" Yang Lin waved his hand and said lightly.

Wang Jie and Fengshen Yinde left, Yang Lin did not stay, and the army continued to advance, gradually pressing towards the land of Gyeonggi of the Qing court.
