Guilin is trapped in the city of Guangzhou, the Heaven and Earth Army is very powerful, but Guilin has pulled up more troops in the city of Guangzhou, although the strong men can only be used to defend the city at most, even if it stimulates the fighting spirit, it will not have much effect, but in fact, the Heaven and Earth Army is also a similar thing, except for a few that can be worthy of a battle, even if it was originally the group of people who were armed by the Heaven and Earth Society, it is not a force with combat power at all.

Guilin, as the governor of Liangguang, commanded the strength of the green battalion of Guangzhou City, about 8,000 people, some of which were the defeated troops of Beihai Town and were reorganized by Guilin. Beihai Town was broken by the rebels, and the general soldiers were killed, but most of the Qing soldiers fled, and some surrendered, cutting the whip and becoming the "Ming army", which was naturally forced. Most of them fled and didn't know where to go, and a few of them returned to Guangzhou City, probably not expecting to be forced to continue fighting.

The general of Guangzhou is Yongwei of the clan, and he has 3,000 Eight Banner soldiers under his command, but Yongwei is weak and cowardly, and he listens to Guilin, which should have lived under him, everywhere, and 3,000 Eight Banner soldiers are also under the command of Guilin. Coupled with the people recruited by the General Zero, Guilin has about 15,000 soldiers in his hands, which is about half of the Tiandihui army that is now besieging the city.

Sun Tzu's art of war is cloudy, ten rules to encircle it, it is obvious that the righteous army does not have an absolute numerical advantage, the Qing army enjoys geographical advantages, but Guilin does not intend to act rashly, and rashly attack the righteous army to break through. The reason is that he was very suspicious of the combat strength of his army, and he heard from the defeated soldiers in Beihai Town that there was a very strong musket team in the righteous army, and in the head-to-head confrontation, the Qing army's green battalion was directly defeated on the whole line, and a large number of rebels followed for a while, and finally defeated the officers and soldiers of Beihai Town.

"These mud legs, how can they have such sharp firearms, if they go on like this, we can't break through!" Yongwei, who has a cowardly personality, is worried.

Guilin is still a little calm. He said: "Eighty percent of this matter has something to do with Tang Yi, Tang Yi brought disaster to the north, and took out firearms to fund this group of rebels who have no monarch and no father, trying to confuse the public and fan the flames, how vicious his heart is!" ”

Yongwei heard Guilin mention the Tang people. became more worried: "Lord Gui, could it be that the Tang people really broke through the capital?" ”

Guilin sighed, and there seemed to be non-existent tears in the corners of his eyes, and said, "If there is no such thing, why is this thief army so excited?" The news has spread everywhere these days, and almost everyone in the world knows about it, some people take it as a joke, some people are terrified, but no matter what. There has been no news from the imperial court for a long, long time, this is by no means normal, and even if someone wants to spread rumors, but the scale is too large, everyone is spreading it, and there are people with noses and eyes, I'm afraid it won't be fake. ”

Yongwei also shed tears, he was really scared to cry. He lamented: "It's over, what should the Qing Dynasty do?" The Tang invaded the capital. The emperor didn't even have a letter, saying that he was caught overseas, and whether the yellow belt, the red belt, or the ordinary flag people in the capital were exiled overseas, even if they wanted to pick it up, they didn't know where to pick it up? Without the imperial court, how can our Guangzhou city survive! ”

Guilin looked at Yongwei's dazed appearance. Disdainful in his heart, he was silent at first, waited for Yongwei to calm down for a moment, and then said: "The emperor has no news, and there is no one in Beijing who can lead the overall situation." As adults say. There are no people who preside over the overall situation, and they can only be more traitors like Tang Yi or the Heaven and Earth Society. We can't lose the Qing Dynasty! At this time, I Guilin also said to the adults that it was taboo, but if I have a heart-to-heart, the emperor is afraid that he will never come back, and the princes are the same. ”

Yongwei was shocked and pointed at himself stupidly: "It's me?" ”

Yongwei's current status is not high, and his title is only that of Feng'en Fuguo, not even a Belle bezi. However, Yongwei's family background is not noble, Yongwei's grandfather is the last prince to be canonized in the history of the Qing Dynasty, that is, Kangxi's second son Yinren. Of course, the story of this prince is not without ups and downs, first he was deposed, and finally he was even imprisoned by his younger brother until he died. Yongwei's father is Yinren's sixth son, Hongyao, a clan who is good at calligraphy and painting.

It can be said that if it is far-fetched, Yongwei is more qualified to be an emperor than Qianlong's lineage, and Yongwei is a serious Aixin Jueluo, and now Aixin Jueluo, who is not in Beijing and is so close in blood, I am afraid that a slap can be counted.

Guilin said: "Auxiliary Guogong, we are also in an extraordinary period now, and we need to do extraordinary things. If things don't turn around, we still need a king in the Qing Dynasty, who else is qualified to sit in that position if you give up the Auxiliary Kingdom? ”

This Yongwei is not ambitious, although he was born burly and knows martial arts, but he has a cowardly personality, and others are basically overjoyed when they hear that they have the opportunity to be the emperor, but this guy waved his hand one after another: "How can it, I Yongwei is loyal to the emperor, how can I usurp the throne?" It's a must-have thing. Besides, now Guangzhou is still besieged by thieves, and the capital is also in the hands of the Tang people, so it is better to think in the long run. ”

Guilin looked at Yongwei who was afraid of becoming like this, and it was self-evident that he hated iron and steel, at this time, Yongwei was still looking forward and backward, afraid of this, afraid of that, Qianlong was basically impossible to come back, if he gave it a fight, at least he could have the title of emperor, but now he still dislikes this hat and is not willing to wear it at all.

Guilin knows that it may not be easy to impress Yongwei, and now the situation is indeed not good, if it can compete for some initiative, there is still room for operation. Although he has become the governor of Liangguang and is a big man in the world, who is not willing to go further. From the dragon's work, coupled with the reputation of Zhongxing and the restoration of the country, he Guilin can also go down in history.

"In the past few days, the intensity of the thief army's siege has weakened, if it weren't for their deliberate desire for us to think so, I'm afraid the thief army's momentum has been weakened. If we go out of the city alone to meet the thief army, we have little chance of winning, but if we can send reinforcements to come, we should combine the inside and the outside, and the front and back will definitely be able to fight. ”

Yongwei heard that there was a chance to defeat the Heaven and Earth Society, and he also came to the spirit, in his opinion, there is no substantial benefit to being an emperor now, and relieving the siege of Guangzhou City will at least give him a chance to continue to live. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, he was clear about the harshness of the former Ming clan, and now the Tiandihui, which came under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, once he was caught, it would inevitably be tortured in every way, and he would be used to retaliate against the Manchu Qing Dynasty's abuse of the Zhu Ming royal family. So Yongwei has been a frightened bird these days, for fear that the city will break.

Guilin said: "Although the thief army has caused chaos in Guangdong, the strength of my Qing Dynasty official army still exists, and the damage is not large. The rest of the military towns were almost undamaged, and as long as the troops of several towns were mobilized, they would definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on the bandit army. I have sent someone to contact Liu Junde, the chief soldier of Gaozhou Town. Chaozhou Town's chief soldier is Heng, one east and one west, which adds up to 10,000 people. There is also Shaozhou Town in northern Guangdong, which is a place where the thief army is still out of reach, and can be helped by elite soldiers. I also want to send people to Guangxi and lead the troops of Guangxi to the east to aid Guangdong, although the thieves have a great momentum at the beginning, but how solid is the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, how can these traitors be shaken? ”

Yongwei couldn't help but say: "Although we have a lot of reinforcements, but it has been more than ten days, and we haven't seen any reinforcements coming, and the city of Guangzhou is still besieged, can they be relied on?" For example, Liu Junde and his ilk are all Han Chinese, and if they are instigated by the thief army to oppose the imperial court at this time, it will be a big trouble. ”

On the one hand, he regarded you Han generals and officials as slaves, and called you to be cattle and horses to help herd the world, but on the other hand, he had to prevent you from knowing which tendon was wrong and rose up against the masters. This is the contradictory idea of using and guarding against.

Guilin could only say at this time: "The Eight Banners only have a few thousand troops in Guangdong, and now the imperial court is completely unable to count on it, and the provinces have their own troubles, and it is impossible for them to come to our aid, even if we are unwilling, we can only use the Han people." And I believe that most of the minions still know that they are slaves, and they understand the principles of loyalty to the king and serving the country, if they don't understand, we will go to those rotten Confucians and old scholars and sing them in their ears. If you want to be morally perfect, you can only be a slave of our Qing Dynasty, and if you want the Han people to be the masters, that is a great disloyalty and unfilial piety, and the outline is often intolerable, and the beasts are not as good. Therefore, whether to be a slave or a beast, they will weigh it themselves. ”

Yongwei pondered for a while, and sure enough, he felt that what Guilin said was very reasonable, and he gave a thumbs up and said, "Lord Gui is really smart." ”

Guilin waved his hand and said: "In the final analysis, our ancestors are still smart, after entering the customs, the world that will be obtained immediately cannot rule the world immediately, after all, the Han people are still like weeds, there are too many." Let's learn their three outlines and five constants, ethics and morality, and hold up the holy masters, monarchs, ministers, fathers, fathers and sons, and naturally there are those scholars and Confucian scholars, who rush to be slaves for us. If they want to be morally perfect and leave a name in history, they have to be our officials obediently. As for those small people, they naturally have to be trained obediently. ”

He changed his words and said: "Therefore, those traitors without a king and a father are the most hateful things, and they casually coerce hundreds of thousands of people to oppose the imperial court, which is a very troublesome thing. But we can also command the minions to deal with them. When we are a slave, we will reward a bone, and if we are not a slave, we will crush their bones, and that's it, we have been clear for hundreds of years. Therefore, we will definitely be able to survive the current situation. ”

Yongwei felt a little relieved, but he vaguely felt that this time there seemed to be something different. He reacted that the beginning of all this seemed to have started when the Tang people suddenly attacked the city of Beijing, and now half of the bannermen were gone. Now that they kill these mud legs, can the people of this world still be willing to be the servants of the Xinjueluo family with peace of mind? (To be continued.) )
