"His Royal Highness the King of the East, I have caught Emperor Daoguang! Chen Pichengsheng, the commander of the boy battalion, captured the Qing demon Daoguang Emperor! King of the East, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has won the world! ”

At the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, the good news reached the Chinese army of Yang Xiuqing, the eastern king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

"Hooray! Banzai! Long live the East King! ”

The soldiers of the East Hall around shouted long live, and the sound penetrated the air of this early morning and reached the inner city of Beijing, which was still fighting fiercely. The officers and soldiers of the Taiping Army who were fighting all knew that they must have made a loud noise again, and their morale was suddenly boosted, and the shouts of killing shook the sky. The Qing army, which was already in complete chaos, also knew that the general trend of the road had gone......

"Is the Daoguang Demon Head still alive?"

Inside the Temple of Heaven, Yang Xiuqing's face was full of unconcealable pride, not to capture Emperor Daoguang alive, but to shout long live for the Sanjun Mountain. They are shouting long live the East King, not the King of Heaven! And this was not deliberately arranged by him, but a heartfelt voice from his subordinates.

The three armies return to their hearts, why worry about the failure of the great cause?

"Back to the East King, the Daoguang demon head is still alive and is coming to the Temple of Heaven, but this demon head was hit in the arm by lead bullets, and I am afraid it will be difficult to survive."

In China in this era, gunshot wounds are still extremely difficult to treat...... It has only been three years since the establishment of Jeshi University, and the first class of students are still studying in Hong Kong classrooms! Even in Zhu Ming's army, there are only some bone-setting doctors who have taken crash courses for a few days as military doctors. This level of medical care is inferior to that of Western armies of the same era, and whoever is shot on the battlefield will have to ask for more blessings.

"Don't let Daoguang die!" Yang Xiuqing's face sank slightly, "Immediately send a fast horse to Tianjin to invite a foreign doctor to treat Daoguang, if it really doesn't work, send someone to Shanghai Jishi Hospital!" ”

Shanghai Jishi Hospital is naturally also invested by Zhu Jishi. All the industries, schools, and institutions in Daming that hang the "Jishi" brand were all opened by Zhu Jishi. Where do others dare to use the name of the Son of Heaven?

"King of the East. It's just a Qing demon leader......" Yang Xiuqing's henchman, Guozong Yang Fuqing, muttered in a low voice.

The so-called "Guozong" is the same brother of several kings in the Taiping army. However, Yang Xiuqing has been lonely since he was a child, and he has no brother clan to rely on, so he recognized the Taiping officers and soldiers surnamed Yang who came out of Guangxi with a little affinity with him as a clan and sealed the national sect. This Yang Fuqin and Yang Xiuqing's distant cousin Yang Xiucong (originally not surnamed Yang) are all like this.

"Daoguang is different, he is the emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty...... You can't let him die just by heart. Yang Xiuqing was very polite to these cheap brothers of herself, "Fuqing, you go to Tianjin in person." Invite me the best doctor in the Tianjin Foreigner Church Hospital, and you can spend as much as you want, but you must keep it secret, and you can't let others know that Daoguang has fallen into our hands. ”

Yang Xiuqing paused for a moment, and then said: "Pass the order, block the city of Beijing within a radius of 100 miles, and within a month, you are not allowed to enter or leave." ”

"King Dong, what do you want to ...... Blockade the news of Daoguang's capture? Yang Fuqing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask again.

Yang Dongwang must be in a good mood today. Patiently said to Yang Fuqing: "Not only to block the news of Daoguang's capture, but also to block the news that Beijing is occupied by me." Fuqing, when you arrived in Tianjin, you can't say that you missed your mouth, do you know the way? ”

Can't even tell the news of the seizure of Beijing? What is this for? Yang Fuqing had a question mark on his head, but he didn't say more, he saluted Yang Xiuqing and turned to leave.

"Order, summon the division commander and above the officers to the Chinese army to discuss matters!" Yang Xiuqing immediately issued another order, summoning all the senior generals of the Taiping Army around Beijing to the Chinese army at the Temple of Heaven.

His Royal Highness the Eastern King of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, His Royal Highness Jiu,000 years old, knows very well that the seizure of Beijing and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are not the same thing at all! On the contrary, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's capture of Beijing meant that the honeymoon period between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Zhu Ming Dynasty was completely over!

At this time, the Taiping army had gathered more than 500,000 troops around Beijing, and there were as many as 30 army numbers, and it took almost the whole day to gather many of your military commanders, and when it was almost dinner, the main hall of the Temple of Heaven was crowded with jubilant heavenly generals.

"Brother Xiucheng, how is the Qing Dongling digging?" Yang Xiuqing's first question surprised everyone, and it was actually to ask Qing Dongling...... Archaeological excavation work.

"His Royal Highness the King of the East, most of the more than a dozen emperors and queens in the Eastern Tombs of the Qing Dynasty have been excavated, and they will all be completed in 10 days. A total of 3.3 million stone of rice grain were exchanged for the treasures that emerged from these tombs, and if all of them were dug up, 3.5 million stone of rice and grain could be exchanged. Li Xiucheng reported the archaeological work of Tanglin to Yang Xiuqing one by one.

The so-called chaotic times buy gold, prosperous times to hide antiques. The treasures in the Qing Dongling Tomb, in the 21st century, can be worth 3.5 million stone rice with just a few pieces, and it is also the best Thai rice. However, at present, the three provinces of Zhilu and Henan are in the year of the Great Wilderness because of the Yellow River, and the treasures of Tanglin are not worth much grain and rice. In addition to digging Dongling, Yang Xiuqing also collected the remaining treasures in the Old Summer Palace (most of which had been transported to the customs by the Manchu Qing Dynasty) and exchanged them for rice and grain.

"Brother Xiucheng, you go and tell Wu Chunqiu that the Kingdom of Heaven still needs more grain, and the Qingxi Tomb will also be dug up...... Let him transport another 3.5 million stone rice grain from the south, and the treasures of Xiling will all belong to the Zhu family. In addition, the Ming Tombs of the Ming Dynasty will be well protected, and a protection fee of 500,000 silver dollars is needed every year, so let them give two years of protection money first. ”

Two 3.5 million stones are 7 million stones, which is more than the amount of rice and grain transported north in Jiangnan in the past, but Zhu Jishi must have a way to raise it. After all, Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice, and many large families have grain stocks that can be sold. And these 7 million stone rice grains are just a reserve in Zhu Ming's hands to survive the famine years, but for Zhu Ming, who occupies the three major grain-producing areas of Huguang, Jiangnan, and Sichuan, grain is no longer a problem. But for King Yang Dong, who held the territory north of the Yellow River and collected millions of victims, food was the source of strength.

Because of the millions of victims in Zhili, as long as there is a stutter now, they will listen to whatever God Yang says!

The main reason why Yang Xiuqing is now blocking the news of the Taiping army's occupation of Beijing is that he is afraid that Zhu Ming will jam his neck on the grain issue.

After Li Xiucheng took the order and left, Yang Xiuqing looked at Wei Changhui, the king of the north, with a smile: "The king of the north, the king of heaven ordered you to attack Shanxi and Shaanxi, I don't know when you plan to send troops?" ”

Wei Changhui heard that he was a spirit, how did Xiao Chaogui, the king of the West, ascend to heaven? Is it really for the Qing Demon's sharpshooter to be killed? Wei Changhui is not a three-year-old child, how can he believe that kind of nonsense?

"His Royal Highness the King of the East." Wei Changhui stood up and saluted Yang Xiuqing respectfully, "The little brother is outnumbered, I'm afraid that I won't be able to defeat Shanxi ......."

This is nonsense, Wei Changhui's Beidian army has more than 50,000 people, most of them are long-term soldiers, and they are also equipped with a large number of shotguns and artillery, which is much stronger than Shanxi's Lian Yong.

Yang Xiuqing nodded silently, and after a while, he said lightly: "Shanxi is indeed not easy to fight, it is better to take Henan first." The king of the north, this king made you the chief general of the expedition to the south, and led the army of the north hall and 50,000 new troops to cross the Yellow River to take Kaifeng and Zhengzhou. ”

The cities of Kaifeng and Zhengzhou are now under the control of Seng Lingqin and Yuan Jiasan, and their two armies still have about 70,000 or 80,000 people. The theoretical combat power is no less than Wei Changhui's 100,000 army, but Seng Lingqin estimates that he does not have much fighting spirit, once he knows the news that Beijing is broken, he will definitely retreat to Shandong, and then float north to Liaodong. Yuan Jiasan, and possibly Zeng Guofan, are Wei Changhui's real opponents.

"His Royal Highness the King of the East, the younger brother is going to Henan, can you recruit Qing demon officials such as An Zeng Guofan and Yuan Jiasan?" Wei Changhui asked.

"Yes, but people may not buy our accounts." Yang Xiuqing sneered, "Since our Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has taken Beijing, we must treat ourselves as the world's right, and it is naturally welcome for someone to vote." However, we must believe in our God, and we can no longer believe in Confucius's set of truths, and then send protons into the court...... Everything else is negotiable. ”

Of course, the land issue is easy to discuss, and there are a large number of flag lands and imperial villages around Beijing, which are now the property of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Therefore, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom did not lack land for the time being to engage in the "Heavenly Dynasty Tianmu System", so it could make a slight concession on the land issue, but the religious issue must not be conceded! Otherwise, Yang Xiuqing's own "God" will also be unstable. (To be continued......)
