Of course, Lin Haifeng will not return to Tianjing, no matter which aspect, he is not allowed to do so now. He must face the battlefield with all his strength and seize the current excellent battlefield opportunity.
Regarding Tianjing's current situation, Lin Haifeng didn't want to get involved too deeply, not to protect himself, but to feel that Tianjing was not chaotic enough, and it was not enough to make a move. Maybe he won't be used yet. No matter what, he believes that Yang Xiuqing can grasp the qiē of Tianjing, and now it is not a pity to compare, and the people's hearts determine the qiē.
He sent a secret letter to Zheng Nan, who was still in Shanghai, instructing Zheng Nan to rush to Fuzhou immediately on the pretext of arranging the construction of the shipyard. He sent another letter to Yang Xiuqing, and paid the confession obtained from Xue Zhiyuan's mouth. He didn't say anything more, but just expressed an opinion that Hou Qianfang must be killed and tried in public.
The second phase of the battle in northern Anhui began again.
For Miao Peilin, Lin Haifeng can be said to be very clear. It was this guy who swayed back and forth between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and engaged in political speculation, and finally when the Taiping Army lost the strategic initiative and the rivers were declining, he finally ensnared Chen Yucheng, the mainstay of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and tied himself firmly to the chariot of the Manchu Dynasty.
Now Miao Peilin's appearance, as well as what he has done based on a person's original character, has undoubtedly given Lin Haifeng a chance to re-dà. It also made the Battle of Suwan, which he originally aimed at annihilating part of the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, become more targeted.
In order to satisfy Miao Peilin's hidden ** in his heart, Lin Haifeng used the means of sealing the official and making a wish for the first time, and he swore that as long as Miao Peilin could assist the Heavenly Army to eliminate the Manchu forces in northern Anhui according to his own wishes, the entire Anhui Province could be handed over to him to govern, and the Celestial Empire would unify the world in the future, and Anhui Province would be autonomous if possible. Of course, for the immediate action, Lin Haifeng also explained carefully and patiently that all the actions of the Heavenly Army in the existing area of his control were just an act of borrowing the Tao, and would definitely not affect his interests. The Celestial Army will neither collect grain and grass in various places, nor will it expand the number of military horses. In turn, the Heavenly Army also had to take special care of the people of Huaibei and his subordinates who were in difficulty.
Miao Peilin was very satisfied with the great wish made by King An brought by Hu Yihuang, which was far more generous than what his teacher Sheng Bao could give him, which made people go to high places and water to low places. So, according to King An's deployment, after Miao Peilin made some false resistance, Hu Yihuang led Zeng Tianyang's first ten armies into Fengyang and Huaiyuan.
The sudden loss of Fengyang and Huaiyuan made Shouzhou, although he was heartbroken for losing the loyalty and righteousness of the two associations, but he still had some hope, Shengbao, who was like hearing a thunderbolt in the clear sky, was tantamount to being stabbed in the back again.
“…… The teacher is on top, and the student is incompetent, resulting in the loss of two important places, which is really a crime that deserves death, and it is really helpless. In the past few months, due to the looting everywhere, coupled with the hard work of individual subordinates, filling their own pockets, the people's hearts have changed greatly, and they have even married thieves and dedicated the city...... In order to live up to the teacher's high expectations for students, students have begun to gather people in Fuyang, Mengcheng and other places to counterattack Huai and Feng day by day. Forced by the discouragement of the army, the students implored the teacher to deign to Fengtai and boost their morale......"
Counterattack Huai, Feng? Shengbao, who was busy dealing with the sudden change in front of him with Mi Liuxin, couldn't smile bitterly when he received this letter from Miao Peilin. If you can't hold the fortified city, turn around and attack again, what's the difference between a fool and a dream? However, when Shengbao calmed down and thought about it carefully, it was difficult for him to blame Miao Peilin. Even the elite loyal and righteous rescue, who is the only hope of the imperial court, is not the opponent of the Taiping Army, not to mention that miscellaneous places like Miao Peilin are armed. Who would have thought that these longhairs would ignore the fierce frontal battlefield and blindly take shortcuts. Sheng Bao thought a lot, but he didn't expect Miao Peilin to do something behind his back.
Sheng Bao and Mi Liuxin still had to rely on Miao Peilin, and behind them, there were not many mobile forces that could be used. Let's not say that Luzhou will continue to fight, even if you want to stop the war, and if you don't recover Dingyuan, Fengyang and Huaiyuan, which have been lost, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the army to retreat. However, Shengbao didn't have time to go to Fengtai, he was now focusing on the more important Dingyuan, Dingyuan couldn't take it, and there was no way to fight in front of him. So, he sent Anhui political envoy Bi Chengzhao to Fengtai to labor the army. said that he was a labor army, and he had no money and no food in his hands, so he had to bring his praise and a few empty official letters.
According to Miliuxin's meaning, now the army of the imperial court has lost the initiative on the battlefield, especially the logistics supply is becoming increasingly difficult, and it is difficult for the soldiers at the front who are not able to eat to make great achievements. Under these circumstances, the best strategy is to retreat the whole army north.
But Shengbao doesn't think so, Chaohu still has Ruilin's tens of thousands of troops, although Chuzhou is still in his hands, once the whole line retreats, it is difficult to guarantee that Ruilin can retreat with his whole body. Besides, the Taiping army is now fighting in multiple points, and its troops are scattered, and it is obviously insufficient troops, otherwise, why don't they directly recapture Chuzhou? Why not quickly connect the east and west lines? In that case, it would be enough to completely eat Ruilin, who is now almost alone. Therefore, he still insisted on his previous point of view, and the Taiping army was besieging Wei to save Zhao.
Just when the two were arguing, another piece of good news came from the direction of Luzhou, which made them immediately unify their thoughts. "Wei Changhui, the chief general guarding Anhui Province, is already preparing to secretly withdraw from Luzhou." This is a secret report sent by Zhou Degui in Luzhou City, and he has repeatedly said that he has arranged an internal response and made an appointment to assist the army in breaking the city.
Is Wei Changhui really leaving Luzhou? Zhou Degui was right. Wei Changhui received Hong Xiuquan's order to secretly return to Tianjing, what did he do when he went back? Hong Xiuquan's edict was not explicitly stated, but Wei Changhui understood it in his heart.
A new situation appeared in Tianjing, and Hong Xiuquan finally forced Yang Xiuqing to possess his Heavenly Father again, and scolded him with a cane.
Just as Hong Xiuquan said in his edict to Lin Haifeng, Hong Xiuquan sent the edict of amnesty to Hou Qianfang to the Prime Minister's Office, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of the Interior at the same time. Not only that, but he also issued an edict appointing Hong Renda as the mayor of Shanghai Special City. When Yang Xiuqing disdainfully threw the edict aside, and thought wholeheartedly about what the Heavenly King had to say about Hou Qianfang's extra kindness, Hong Renda had already quietly gone to Shanghai to take office.
If it weren't for Hong Xiuquan's pardon edict, although Huang Yukun had already obtained Hou Qianfang's confession, Yang Xiuqing would still have to save his life. Now, Hong Xiuquan inserted such a lever horizontally, and Yang Xiuqing changed his mind. There is no Fu Shanxiang by his side, but there is still a think tank, that is, Lu Xianba, who is respected by everyone as the "old master".
Lu Xianba is a Confucian student, when the Celestial Dynasty in Yong'an Prefecture was established, he was awarded the post of left palm court. In the summer of the second year of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he was promoted to inspector. In the spring of the third year, after Tianjing was set as the capital, he was crowned as the prime minister. Since July, he has been transferred to the East Wangfu Books. Later, he was promoted to the autumn official and became the prime minister, still managing the affairs of the Eastern Palace, and presided over the compilation of the history of the Taiping Rebellion.
Lu Xianba can be said to have done his best for the Celestial Empire, and the Manchu officials cursed him for being "arrogant and abnormal", and cursed him for fighting in the army and "fighting for his life". The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was set to be the capital of Tianjing, and Yang Xiuqing twice pretended to ask his Heavenly Father to go down to prevent Hong Xiuquan from burning the Four Books and the Five Classics, and also prevented Hong Xiuquan from destroying all the ancient books, "It is ordered that the books that have been passed down through the ages cannot be destroyed", and "all the legends of sincere and loyal ministers must always be left". This series of behaviors is actually from the ideas of Confucianism within the Celestial Empire, and in the end, it is precisely Lu Xianba who can really influence Yang Xiuqing's behavior. Because Lu Xianba is not only an official acting in charge of the affairs of the East Palace, but also a relative of Yang Xiuqing.
"This is an edict of pardon issued by the Heavenly King, which is to confirm Hou Qianfang's guilt. If Your Highness accepts the Heavenly King's kindness, it is obvious that the officials will think that you are selfish. When he received the edict from the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, Lu Xianba reminded the East King, and at the same time he pointed to the edict of appointment on the table, "There is an exchange between them." ”
