"Alright, alright. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wu Jin smiled and asked the arrogant He Jun to sit down, then turned his eyes to look at the others, and asked with a smile, "Do you have any other opinions now?" ”

Looking at Wu Jin with a smile on his face and a knife expression, all the people in the room secretly scolded in their hearts, you have brought out this kind of sensitive person for us to see, who would dare to say against it at such a time? Impatient to live? If you dare to say it, you can still stand and walk out of this manor today? Maybe it will be buried in the backyard to make flower fertilizer for the benefit of the earth.

"Good." Seeing that everyone nodded in acquiescence, He Jun, who had a pimple on his face, smiled with satisfaction, picked up a glass of wine on the coffee table, and shouted, "Come on, come on, cheers to our victory." ”

The people in the room looked at the fool in front of them helplessly, and they didn't understand how this stupid big man could take on such a heavy responsibility. "Could it be that he is the illegitimate son of He Ziqiu?" Some people have conjectured this with malice. In addition, they really couldn't figure out what He Ziqiu was thinking, why should such an important thing be done by such an important person.

Seeing the triumphant He Jun showing off himself a little unknowingly under the praise of those people, Wu Jin secretly sneered in his heart, if he can deceive these people, he doesn't know if he can deceive Zhang Cheng's eyes? Xiao Hongbao is working in Italy, only Wang Yan is left, I don't know if it will be seen.

In fact, whether it is Wu Jin or He Ziqiu, or His Majesty the Emperor who hides behind his back and completely abolishes himself, they all know very well. If you want to succeed under Zhang Cheng's nose, you can't rely on these fools who have a little money in their pockets in front of you. These guys who fell into the eyes of money don't want to think about it, even the powerful family consortium was put down and cleaned up by Zhang Cheng, what can they be counted in Zhang Cheng's eyes as rising stars who picked up the garbage that fell on the ground?

These people in the conference room are just cannon fodder who still go out to attract Zhang Cheng's attention, and He Jun is also just a bait. The only one who can really play a role in this matter is the army, and it has to be the army near the imperial capital. However, where is it so simple to collude with the army under Zhang Cheng's nose? Is it true that Xiao Hongbao and Wang Yan's subordinates are blind?

Therefore, He Ziqiu threw out his own nephew as a target on the surface to attract attention, while his close confidants secretly came to the imperial capital to carry out activities. I just don't know if this kind of thing can be completely hidden from Zhang Cheng's eyes.

He Ziqiu, who has almost reached the pinnacle of his life, actually no longer has the momentum and bravery of his youth, he now has too many pots and jars, how can it be so easy to let go?

It's just that Zhang Cheng's rapid rise has had a huge impact on him, even to the extent that it endangers the position he has at the moment. Many of the troops on the Russian battlefield are now very dissatisfied with his constant suppression of attacks and his practice of messing around all day long. Watching the battles promoted by Zhang Cheng win one after another, the hearts of He Ziqiu's troops were about to disperse.

This is no longer the era of hundreds of years ago when generals could decide everything about an army. The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in this era were basically highly educated and had their own universal values, and it was not easy to master them. Especially in the recent period, Zhang Cheng has continuously sent a steady stream of recruits from all over the country to the Russian battlefield. Although the power in He Ziqiu's hands has been greatly strengthened, these soldiers will not go to do private arming for him He Ziqiu.

He Ziqiu, who has already sensed Zhang Cheng's sinister intentions, also has no choice, if Zhang Cheng does not step down, he will be completely hollowed out in half a year at most. In the end, he was either transferred back to the imperial capital to take up a noble position of drinking tea and reading newspapers every day and waiting for retirement, or he was arrested by the gendarmes and sent to a military court. He Ziqiu, who was unwilling to leave the scene in such a humiliation, was determined to give it a go.

He Ziqiu would definitely not be able to mobilize the Russian army on the battlefield to return to the imperial capital. Not to mention whether he can kill all the way back, it is almost impossible for his subordinates to chase anyone to do such a rebellious thing. As I said before, this era is no longer an era in which generals can completely decide the fate of the army. If He Ziqiu really dared to do this, then the officers and soldiers on the Russian battlefield would definitely directly eliminate him.

What He Ziqiu could do was to send his henchmen to liaise with the officers in the imperial capital on his behalf and provide behind-the-scenes support to those who opposed Zhang Cheng.

His Majesty the Emperor, who was stimulated by Zhang Cheng's intention to abolish the constitutional monarchy after the war, also contributed greatly to this action. After all, once Zhang Cheng really let him abdicate, then he will be the biggest sinner of the old Zhu family. Therefore, it is imperative to resist Zhang Cheng. What is an emperor without a throne? Ordinary people are not as good, right? His Majesty the Emperor, who was unwilling to be the last emperor, was determined to overthrow Zhang Cheng on the ground.

In order to attract all the power at his disposal, His Majesty the Young Emperor first promised the people in the business world that he would cancel the policy of collecting taxes from everyone that he and Zhang Cheng had set before. A big pie was drawn to encourage those businessmen to contribute their efforts and money to become cannon fodder. Subsequently, His Majesty the Emperor, who was also able to see clearly where the essence of the success of the matter was, made a wish, and used high-ranking officials to tempt the middle and lower-level officers. As for a big army leader like He Ziqiu, the young emperor offered the biggest price and tore the earth to seal the king!

At the same time, in order to build strength and ensure first-time success. His Majesty the Emperor also secretly sent his cronies abroad to reach private agreements with the allies, and sold the interests of the Ming Dynasty in exchange for the support of these countries. The terms of the armistice between the two sides and other aspects can be called jubilation for the Allied forces, which are clearly in a disadvantageous situation at this time. As long as Zhang Cheng can eliminate everyone's common enemy, he will be able to realize everyone's wishes.

His Majesty the Emperor doesn't care if what he has done has hurt the interests of countless people, nor does he care what kind of impact what he has done will have on the country. He just wants to hold on to the power in his hands. As for the harm caused by this matter to the country and ordinary people, the emperor did not care. In the emperor's heart, these people no longer sacrifice everything for the emperor, so why should the emperor care about their interests?

Just when the entire Ming Dynasty was cheering for the brilliant victory on the Italian battlefield, it was when Zhang Cheng's prestige and power were at their peak. An unseen web was winding around him. This time the battle in the dark corners is more ruthless than the bloody and brutal battlefield.

......

"All ready?" The imperial capital, Zhang Cheng's official residence. Zhang Cheng, who had a leisurely expression, looked at Xiao Hongbao, who had secretly returned to the imperial capital in front of him, took out the wine glass from the wine cabinet, and asked with a smile, "All the people who should come are here?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." Xiao Hongbao, who had a calm face, took the wine glass handed over by Zhang Cheng, sat down on the sofa and spoke, "All the expected characters have been monitored, and all the personnel and their plans have been mastered. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Cheng, who was sitting on the sofa, crossed his legs, leaned back on the back of the sofa, and asked with a smile, "Did you do a good job?" How did they plan it? Tell me about it. ”

"Yes." Xiao Hongbao nodded and said, "The main forces that may participate in this operation are the First Airborne Division under the command of General Cui Yunjie, the Imperial Guard, the Imperial Capital Garrison, and the private soldiers organized by the participants, as well as the allied special forces that came in through secret channels. ”

"Cui Yunjie." Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes and shook his head helplessly, "He still decided to do it, forget it, no matter what he is, the road is taken by himself." What happened to the 1st Airborne Division? How many people will follow Cui Yunjie? ”

In fact, the vast majority of the officers and men of the 1st Airborne Division did not know Cui Yunjie's plan. He was able to mobilize only those who had been inserted through his hands. Xiao Hongbao replied: "Their plan is to attack Your Excellency by secretly arranging assassins and private soldiers to enter the palace at the celebratory banquet held at the palace on the evening of April 22. If it succeeds, the emperor will take over everything, and if it fails, the royal guards will come forward and forcibly snipe your Excellency. At the same time, Cui Yunjie took part of the troops of the First Airborne Division and the imperial capital garrison troops that they had bought to enter the imperial capital in the name of quelling the rebellion and control the situation. At the same time, they will also arrange for manpower to eliminate the commander of the imperial capital garrison, General Lu Zhiyuan, as well as his father, Chief of General Staff Lu, and some other important generals. ”

"Oh." Zhang Cheng nodded casually, holding the wine glass calmly, his eyes were slightly distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, Zhang Cheng hooked the corners of his mouth and laughed, "Really, the plan is quite thorough, and the scene is also very well arranged." Is it just that when I am a fool and blind in such a big scene, I can't see anything? What role did He Ziqiu play in this incident? ”

In his own name, he sent his henchmen to contact the former subordinates of the imperial capital garrison. They made great promises while threatening their families. In addition, the people of the Chamber of Commerce paid for it, and the emperor was the guarantor. There are many people who have chosen to agree for various reasons. Xiao Hongbao's words made Zhang Cheng raise his eyebrows, "In other words, there are still people who are not willing to be bought under threat?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." Xiao Hongbao nodded in response, "There are some officers who have been approached who are unwilling to do this kind of thing, so they take the initiative to contact us and tell us everything." ”

"Are you sure?" Zhang Cheng frowned and asked out loud.

"It's confirmed, it's not a strategy, it's that they really don't like this thing and don't want to put themselves into it." Xiao Hongbao's voice carried a touch of pride in it, Zhang Cheng's prestige was enough to affect the entire overall situation. (To be continued.) )
