(Thank you for the support of Dawn 93 before dusk!) ）

Yixiao was definitely the first person among the ministers in the late Qing Dynasty, and in later generations, some people even made a statistic.

If you live in the late Qing Dynasty and happen to be close to Yixuan, then you can basically be unimpeded in the Qing Dynasty.

In many cases, it only takes one sentence to solve almost all the problems.

And because he stood up at a critical moment during the Wuxu coup d'état, he helped Cixi a lot, so he was even more loved by Cixi.

Even in Cixi's eyes, Yixiao's current status is more important than the big celebrity Li Lianying around her.

Yixuan's words resonated with many people.

Fleeing west, this is just a helpless move, and the road to the west is relatively panicked, not to mention the loss of East and West along the way, there is not even a minimum guarantee.

The carriage that the Empress Dowager Cixi was riding was temporarily snatched from Zailan's hands, and later a dart company surnamed Li in Guanshi learned that the royal family had fallen here, so he invited him home to rest for a while, and contributed four camel sedan chairs, and Emperor Guangxu barely had a 'car'.

Even the Empress Dowager and Emperor have been reduced to this, how good can they be for these princes and ministers?

Suddenly, after hearing the news that someone could stop the attack of foreign soldiers, the minds of these princes and ministers became active again.

Who wouldn't want to stay here and not continue on the bleak road to the west?

Although many people agreed with Yixuan's proposal, even the Empress Dowager Cixi was a little moved.

But at this moment, the Minister of Military Aircraft stood up.

"Empress Dowager, the minister thinks this move is inappropriate!"

The brows of the Empress Dowager Cixi, who had just been stretched, wrinkled again after hearing the resolute words, and her heart was a little unhappy.

It's just been a little bit of joy, you are resolute to pour cold water, what do you want to do?

Although she was very unhappy in her heart, on the surface, the Empress Dowager Cixi still calmly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Queen Mother, the minister does not deny their merits. But as we all know, they have inflicted heavy losses on foreign soldiers, and what kind of virtue are foreigners? We all know it in our hearts.

Now the foreigners don't know that the Queen Mother and Her Majesty are here, if we send someone to transfer them to garrison here, we can certainly stabilize the defense of this place.

But the foreigners are not paper paste after all, for an army that has brought them thousands of casualties, will they easily let it go?

If this foreigner sends heavy troops to follow them, not only will they be unable to protect themselves, but they will also be able to lure foreign soldiers here, and the imperial court will have to continue to move westward.

Therefore, the minister thought that it was better to send someone to contact him first to see who was in charge of the army, and then the court rewarded the army and ordered it to continue to entangle with the foreign soldiers. Resolute and righteous words.

Fortitude was originally a belligerent, and during the First Sino-Japanese War, Fortitude actively fought the main battle, and was appreciated by the Empress Dowager Cixi and entered the military aircraft.

At the time of the coup d'état, Gangyi insisted on opposing the change, and even because he advocated the abolition of the emperor, he was later promoted to the secretary of the military department and a co-organizer of the university, and became one of Cixi's cronies.

After the Boxers entered Beijing, Gangyi, together with Zai Yi, advocated appeasing the Boxers and jointly xenophobic, hoping to use the Boxers' 'immortal arts' to achieve the effect of 'helping the Qing and destroying the foreign'.

In June, Gangyi and Zhao Shuqiao went to Liangxiang and Zhuozhou to check the reality of the Boxers, and after returning to the dynasty, they reported that 'their skills can be used', so they were appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Boxers together with Zaiyi, and led the Boxers to fight against the coalition forces.

In August, the coalition forces captured the capital, and Gangyi and Cixi went west to hunt (flee west).

It can be said that Fortitude started by war, although he never went to the battlefield.

Therefore, when he learned that there was an army that could resist the coalition forces, Fortitude's first thought was not to transfer this force to his side to protect the safety of the imperial court, but to reward the army and then order it to fight against the coalition forces.

The Empress Dowager Cixi, who was originally frowning tightly, frowned even tighter this time.

It's not that her resolute words made her unhappy after listening to them, but that her resolute words were reasonable.

Before, she seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, but after such an analysis by Fortitude, she knew that if this army was brought to her side, then they would be really in danger.

"I'll leave this matter to you." The Empress Dowager Cixi decided, and immediately waved her hand: "Okay, let's go back and rest, let's continue to hurry tomorrow morning." ”

Cixi always felt that their current location was too dangerous, too close to the foreign soldiers.

And this place is not suitable for the imperial court to stay for a long time, at the very least, you have to find a big city with a slightly higher scale, right? If you stay here all the time, won't you be humiliated by the court?

"Cover!" Fortitude and the others were ordered to retreat.

After all the ministers left, the Empress Dowager Cixi suddenly seemed to be a few years older, leaning weakly on the head of the bed, looking at Li Lianying, who had followed her for most of her life.

"Xiao Lizi, where did you say this army came from?"

"Lafayette, let's sew where he came from, at least, he is our army of the Qing Dynasty, isn't he? Now that the military has completely failed, the imperial court also needs such a force to stand up and speak. Li Lianying said.

As a celebrity next to the Empress Dowager Cixi, Li Lianying can even guess what she thinks in her heart based on an action of the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Although Li Lianying also knew that this army might not be as simple as imagined, the new army, which they had high hopes for, was defeated again and again on the battlefield, while an army with no reputation was defeated by foreign soldiers.

Although this is to earn back some face for the imperial court, why didn't it put a thorn in the heart of the imperial court?

But at this time, Li Lianying couldn't talk about those worrying suspicions, he could only say at best, and give Cixi a reassuring pill so that she could make a final decision.

…………

When the news that Wang Sirui only had one battalion of troops was transmitted back to the imperial court, Cixi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart.

Hundreds of thousands of troops are helpless against foreign soldiers, what can he do with his battalion?

However, the soldiers sent to contact them immediately afterward gave Cixi a shot in the arm.

Don't look at Wang Sirui, although there are few soldiers, their firepower is extremely powerful, and only those nine heavy machine guns can block the attack of tens of thousands of enemies.

However, when the appointment of the imperial court and the holy decree were passed to Wang Sirui, Wang Sirui was not lightly given to Lei.

To put it simply, Wang Sirui was promoted, and he was appointed as the commander of the sixth battalion of the newly organized Gyeonggi Army.

If it's just a promotion, it's just a promotion, after all, he was promoted to three levels in a row, and he flew straight from the second grade from a small army with a fourth-grade pipe belt, and there were two levels from the third-grade and the third-grade in the middle.

But the next holy decree seemed to put a gun on Wang Sirui's head, and the holy decree required Wang Sirui to recruit six battalions of soldiers within a month, and he could use the holy decree to recruit the defeated soldiers to join and conduct training. Within three months, the capital was recovered.

Six battalions will be recruited within a month, and it is not impossible if the conditions are relaxed a little, but it will be too much for Nima to recover the capital within three months.

Looking at the little eunuch who conveyed the holy decree, Wang Sirui hated to shoot this eunuch with one shot.
