Xu Yifan's stay in Shanghai was not very long, but only three or two days. For him, these two or three days are a rare leisure between the afternoon of the military book, and in the past six months, Rao is still supposed to eat and sleep when he is most nervous, and he is calm and calm, and his nerves are tense and tired, in fact, it is almost impossible to afford it. I don't know how many nights I will be woken up by the Jin Ge Iron Horse in my dream, the mountain and the tsunami!

When he got off the ship in Shanghai, the shogunate of the Liangjiang Governorate, composed of Tang, Zhan, Zhang, and Sheng, had already begun to work, and it was much harder than him. In the past two or three days, the four of them never bothered Xu Yifan, but the governor's advice was sent out one after another.

Xu Yifan was scheduled to set off after three days, and the steamer towed the governor's ship from Shanghai to Jiangning.

The Jiangsu Domain, compiled by the Governor of Liangjiang, was immediately sealed and sealed, and before Xu Yifan arrived, he was not allowed to appoint a messenger to vacate points. One should meet the general superintendent on errands, all exempted.

The advance battalion head of the Praetorian Guard, led by Zhang Xuzhou, the deputy general of the Wusong battalion in Jiangnan, who was awarded the rank of general soldier, arrived in Jiangning first and took over the Tangshan camp. In addition to Jiangning Mancheng, the governor's guard of honor and Jiangning police beep matters. Zhang Xuzhou has full authority to act cheaply. Civil and military officials are not allowed to interfere with the feudal department or below.

Jiangsu Province is really lacking in the province of Fuzhou County, the official is the same as the official below, the general judgment, the inspection, the history of the ten days of the gathering in Jiangning! ……… There is no real vacancy of alternate officials who have been sent to the body, regardless of the Donation Bureau, the Baojia Bureau, the Qingzhang Bureau, the Aftermath Bureau, the Foreign Affairs Bureau, the Water Conservancy Bureau, the Relief Bureau, and the Camp Office...... Those with an official rank of seven or more, and those who are above the secretary of the mission committee, will also gather in Jiangning within ten days! Military officials are not among them. Xu Yifan cares for one side on behalf of the heavenly governor, the inspector is the first, the governor's move to break the situation, no one is allowed to play with it!

One after another of the governor's orders were sent out like thunder and lightning. Liangjiang and Shanghai officialdom were shocked for a while, and no one knew what the 205th Governor of the Great Qing Dynasty was turning. It's just that this majestic momentum is really not small!

At the same time, two copies of ginseng have been issued, one is to participate in the prefect of Zhang Guangming, the general office of the Shanghai Baojia Bureau, who was unlucky enough to commit a smoking addiction at the reception banquet, and the other is to participate in the first salt law road in Jiangsu and the main hall of the prefect of Jiangning Mansion to increase longevity!

Before the governor of Liangjiang arrived in Jiangning City, he had already removed the top of the first road, which was really a resolute move that he had not seen in nearly a hundred years!

The people who got the news were shocked, panicked, uneasy, sneered and disdainful, pretended to be graceful, and more were secretly discussed. With Xu Yifan's victory, he is in Shanghai, and he is about to go to Jiangning, and no one dares to jump out on the stage and sing any counter-tune. The Governor's Shogunate's message and the editorials written by the Daqing Times, which have been published intensively in the past few days, are a signboard -- after Tan Sitong went, the Daqing Times was overwhelmed for a while, and the four Wenchen under Xu Yifan's command were all able to write an editorial at this time, and at this time, they had to go into battle shirtless and write a series of editorials in accordance with Xu Yifan's intentions -- the overall situation of the country and the dynasty must be refreshed and cheered up, didn't you see that the imperial court in the capital had promoted Tan Sitong unusually? Xu Dashuai's intentions are the same as those of the imperial court, who will say nothing?

Xu Yifan is at ease in Shanghai, and he doesn't know if he has eaten a few bites of cuckoo Luo Shi to compensate, but he looks red and white in the house, proud, and looks like yin and yang are in harmony. It is estimated that Li Xuan will not be able to stop him from sneaking the door of the two concubines...... Li Xuan's big house ban has already existed in name only one day. The mixed-race little beauty is almost also struggling to study physiological hygiene, so hurry up and make up for it. Seeing Xu Yifan swaying around with his shoulders and chest and belly all day long, I thought that after he arrived in Jiangnan in a high-profile manner, the land of the two rivers was not alarmed, and the country and the people were safe........................ The fact is indeed that the waves are not shocked, from Yanjing to Jiangning and even Suzhou, they are all silent and silent. The situation in South China is like a quiet pool of stagnant water, with not even a ripple on the surface.

But no one knows what kind of storm is brewing under this pool of stagnant water!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bai Siwen Bai Dazhi County has been in Shanghai for the past few days, like ants on top of a hot pot, and he is not sitting or standing in the mansion temporarily arranged for him and Zengshou in Shanghai Dao to take over the errand this time. Sighs came one after another.

Needless to say, I can't eat the food, I can't even put it down when I hold it, and I can't smoke the big cigarette from dark to dawn. The servants beat two taels of yellow and soft Yunnan horseshoe soil every day, and Bai Dazhi County just smoked four or five dollars and shook his hand without thinking about it. Sometimes looking at the cigarette guns, cigarette lights, cigarette sticks, and the look is vicious.

This time, the difference was completely messed up. The longevity of the leader has now been strictly participated in - who let the flag man not open his eyes? Now in officialdom, there is no reason to have a hard top with the boss! But people have a net worth and can afford it............ What should be the deficit of his white sven?

The unlucky Zhang Guangming and Zhang Taizun at the banquet have only now withdrawn the vacancy, and there are already a lot of debts from the money store at the door of the house. The family can't survive and die, and the little lady from Xinna's eldest third cousin has already rolled up her baggage, and she doesn't know that she and the former benefactor have escaped without a trace. The old man had gone completely insane, and he thought he was a cow to his creditors, and he would only lie on the ground and moo whatever anyone asked.

Bai Dazhi County doesn't want to be like this in the future.

But the current situation, how can he put his mind at ease! Longevity is an errand with him. Longevity roared at the governor, smashed the basin and hit the bowl, and the people were not polite, and named Yan Shen. He came with Zengshou, and he couldn't run away from it, but it's amazing! He is not like Mrs. Zeng and is a little confused, after being involved, he has simply played in the hall on the four roads in the past few days.

He doesn't care what kind of person Xu Yifan is, he doesn't care if Xu Yifan has anything to deal with with the court, and he doesn't care what the new Suzhou Rongzhong Cheng has planned. If you want to eat, you have to keep your current reputation!

But he is a small county, and he wants to ask for advice from the two local Taoist platforms in Shanghai, and these two Taoist platforms are now closed and no one is seen. I used to want to dredge the door when I gave a gift, but the gift was also politely returned. If you don't see it, you don't see it, and you don't want to get into this muddy water. I want to worship the few men of the Xu Dashuai Shogunate who are now majestic, whether they are handing over the book or standing on duty, everyone is in the way! What else can people think about this? The Governor's Mansion hasn't done anything to him yet, but the more this happens, the more people are worried and frightened!

In the end, there was only one ruthless stamping of his feet, his face touching down and his sleeve inside, to save his job, and that was the only way!

He sat in the sedan chair and swayed around just thinking about his thoughts, but he didn't dare to take it big today, and said that in his own land, Bai Dazhi County had secretly sat in a green sedan chair. Today is a semi-new two-person sedan chair rented by a sedan chair shop. Seeing that he was about to reach the ground, Bai Siwen was short of breath for a while, and almost wanted to stomp his feet and shout at the sedan chair to stop and turn around. The foot was raised, but it was not stepped on for a long time. In the end, I still have a heart. Being an official is like being a bitch, who cares about this face!

The sedan chair flickered and stopped, and the guy in the sedan chair shop lifted his face and poked his head in to get the handrail: "Master, Master Xu's mansion in Shanghai has arrived, and there is the chief master of the Praetorian Guard guarding outside, we can't move forward anymore, is the master wronged?" The sedan money is one and a half yuan, and the power money is not accurate, so listen to the master's reward............ Does the master know Xu Dashuai? This is our Qing Dynasty's Zijin Beam! ”

Bai Siwen was in a small hat in a green coat, his face was ugly, he was a subordinate today. grabbed a few foreign coins and handed them to the palanquin man, waving them to leave quickly. Then he took a deep breath and looked up at the front.

In front of Xu Yifan's mansion, there are now more than a dozen Praetorian Guards standing straight on duty, and the yellow tweed military uniform is dazzling. These soldiers are all strong young men, from top to bottom is an absolute straight line, and their bodies are still slightly leaning forward, just such a stop, there is naturally a sense of forest - Bai Dazhi County does not know that this is the result of Prussian-style practice! He just felt that his legs and stomach were a little tendoned, and his eyes fell on the collar badges of those Praetorian Guard soldiers, and the black dragon opened its teeth and claws, as if it was demonstrating towards him. A Praetorian Guard officer with a guard had his riding boots above his knees, and he stood there with his back to him and his legs apart, his armed belt slashing his waist thinly, as if he heard the movement behind him, and turned his head with a cold face, and his eyes met Bai Siwen's wincing eyes.

In front of Xu Yifan's mansion, there are just a dozen Goshha guards. But after passing through the battlefield, soldiers in new military uniforms stopped here. The majestic and murderous spirit is better than the world's governor Fu raising a spear and a handsome flag, and the horse chief Miao Zi put a full pomp in front of the yamen!

Huangtian, he was really bad in his previous life, how could he be such a handsome governor of Liangjiang!

Without waiting for the Praetorian Guards soldiers to come over for interrogation, Bai Siwen, who had opened all his face, had already knelt down with a pounce, and reported his resume loudly with a crying voice: "The county magistrate is the main hall of Jiangning Qipin County, and the five-grade merit card plus the third-level record, and Bai Siwen of the two rivers in the seventh year of Guangxu distributed the lowly post of Liangjiang to ask Xu Dashuai for his guilt!" If the handsome man doesn't appreciate it, he can only kneel and die here! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~, "Brother, tell me, what does the thunderous and lightning-like trouble surnamed Xu mean?" Rong Lu smiled slightly and pointed to the manuscripts copied by the staff in his hand, and asked in a low voice.

The man he asked was half-lying on the couch. The cigarette skewers were scattered for a plate before the addiction was over. I ordered a piece of paper and drank tea slowly. This man was no more than thirty-five or sixteen years old, with a chubby face and a sparse beard. The clothes on the body are all famous things. It is the current Jiangning Manchurian general Yukun, Shu Mulu. He is inlaid with a blue flag, and he has nothing to do with Yanjing City, he has been stationed outside the Guan, and the Qing Dynasty selected the garrison general, but the one from the capital was not too selected. The old Eight Banners outside the Guanwai are considered to still have a little bit of strong spirit, and they continue to select people from the inside who can still see the past to fill the city and guard the city all over the country, and the capital is unified until the Manchurian general. This is also the meaning of the balance adjustment of the Eight Flags. Yukun's resume turned around in Rehe Suiyuan, outside the Guan, and he also went to the right door, and Guangxu made up for the lack of General Jiangning in the fifteenth year.

However, the so-called children of the Eight Banners who have the blood surname of their ancestors, when they arrive in the prosperous Guannai, especially in places like Jiangning and Guangzhou, they are holding smoking guns in a blink of an eye, sitting in a sedan chair, and eating big dishes. More twilight than anyone else. Besides, even if you have to do things and train troops, what can the current Manchurian generals everywhere do? The Manchurian Eight Banners defense troops in the whole country, except for a few places in Gansu and Ili, are still a little bit of a look, and all the others have become a civil affairs bureau in Manchuria that provides welfare to the people stationed in various places. All day long, I just thought of tricks to dig up more silver from the local treasury and give benefits to the people stationed in the flag. With Yukun, the general of Jiangning, at the end of the month, he still took Goshha and sat in a sedan chair to collect money from the bannerman real estate that was rented out as a storefront and a mansion.

The garrison banner people in Jiangning are also special, and more than 30,000 Jiangning banner people were slaughtered during the Hongyang Rebellion. Now these flag men stationed in this place are allocated by hundreds of families in this place and hundreds of families in that place. There are many disputes and disputes, a bowl of water is even, and you can't treat your own purse badly. I'm busy with these things all day long, and I'm still preparing for war, and I haven't thought about it!

Rong Lu came down with a big hat, and Yukun also received the secret decree of the imperial court. So after Rong Lu met with Jiangning officialdom, he invited him again, Yukun was refreshing, and he arrived as soon as he was invited. Rong Lu was naturally polite to him, he sat on the kang, asked him to be promoted to the crown and was dressed in civilian clothes, and he was asked to lie down and smoke when he took off his note-he came to give Rong Zhonghua face, and he had to look at his face?

He lazily propped up half of his body on the couch, glanced at the pages of manuscripts, and sneered: "What does it matter?" Brother Zhonghua, brother said something crazy. The two rivers are pools of water, and the brothers know better than the elder brother! Who can easily touch every aspect here? I don't know how many people have both means and face, and the governor of the two rivers and rivers beaten by iron. Here the big man in the field, there are only four words for the place, and there is nothing to do! The imperial court sent the surname Xu here to let Sun Monkey come to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain to grind his fire............ He's making trouble, he's making trouble! See if he can turn this country upside down? ”

Rong Lu gritted his teeth and smiled faintly: "Xu Yifan is a soldier ............"

"Soldiers have [***] use! This is not the early years of the dynasty. Xu Yifan is also lucky to be able to win against the little devil, and it's not that the brother hasn't seen the big head soldier, so when the time comes, give them some benefits, can they still pull it in? Your brother has already moved the Jiangning Domain to Suzhou, and he has no salary, why did he Xu Yifan hold his soldiers? This is not North Korea, he dares to rob the army? And so many banner men are used as gunmen for him? Therefore, your brother is high here, and his brother is loyal and admired! Jiangning Domain, Tai is also well aware of the righteousness, it is estimated that if Xu Yifan is not enough, Brother Liu, the feudal secretary, will have to take the first step by himself, and the court will not treat Brother Liu badly! ”

Rong Lu just smiled bitterly, for more than 200 years, the means of dealing with powerful ministers were one after another. He naturally knew what to do, but for Xu Yifan, he felt that everything he knew and everything he could use was completely useless. To deal with Xu Yifan, no matter what means are used, there is no strength in his hand as a background. Even if he unites the gentry of the two rivers to make trouble, I am afraid that he will be extinguished by Xu Yifan in a way he can't imagine!

But now it seems that Baba's invitation to Yukun will not have much effect. This Yukun, Dingtian is a newcomer to North Korea, and he doesn't know how terrible Xu Yifan is! Jiangning is full of soldiers, not to mention Jingkou is full of soldiers, it is not as good as Jiangning. The green camp around Jiangning, and the flag soldiers are also big brothers, don't laugh at the second brother. In this way, there is only one that can count on Wu Yi Mingjun Chen Fenglou who is stationed in Xuzhou?

Wu Yi Mingjun has seen several battles, and it is one of the elite defense battalions of the imperial court, and it is a mobile force used to guard the two rivers. On the first day of this time, Wu Yiming's army was partially transferred north to Shandong, and only then did he arrive, and the battle was over. The power is considered complete. The strength of the imperial court in the north was beaten to the ground this time, and the only ready-made forces with a little strength were Iktang Abe and Song Qingbu. But Yi Ke Tang'a wanted to suppress Manchuria, and he himself did not have the slightest intention of handing over his strength, and when he heard that the imperial court slightly revealed the intention of borrowing his strength to go to the two rivers to balance Xu Yifan, his head shook like a wave drum. Sending Xu Yifan is the same as sending the plague god, it's not enough to go to Liangjiang to find it, he's not a fool, he doesn't want to meet the surname Xu in this life!

As for the old man Song Qing, like wood, he had to go back to Suiyuan to defend himself, and he didn't listen to anything else, as if he was willing to eat sand. The strength of other provinces in the south - Rong Lu can see that these local governors will definitely not reach out at this time, they can't wait for the court and Xu Yifan to beat each other's dog brains, so they will spend less attention on them. For a while, they will send a messenger, and for a while, they will clean up the local finances.

The Qing Dynasty.................. Rong Lu's gaze suddenly became lower, and he looked at the north as he looked past Yukun, who was lying back again. This Chen Fenglou's Wu Yi Mingjun, is it necessary to use it or not? He had already called several times, and the imperial court also had a secret decree. This news should be back, right?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the Yellow Sea, several China Merchants steamers were spitting black smoke and whining southward. The deck at the bow and stern of the ship was crowded with Praetorian Guard soldiers in yellow uniforms, some doing their best work, some watching the seascape. This victorious army talked and laughed loudly between the sea and the sky, and the topics were inseparable from the battle they had just experienced.

Hundred battles and tigers, there is this pride and majesty!

The Praetorian Guards marched south one after another, except for Yuan Shikai, whose status was undetermined in the vicinity of Pyongyang, North Korea, who was temporarily left behind, and the other more than 20,000 people, all of whom had to be transferred to the two rivers. And it is clear that the Praetorian Guard will only expand, not downsize. In the barren land of North Korea, Xu Dashuai can pull such a team out, the two rivers are rich, Xu Dashuai's prestige and status are going up, how can the Praetorian Guard not expand?

The sword of defending the country, the glorious Qing Dynasty, is only one of them!

For the rest of his life, he will shake the world and have a bright future. The morale of the southbound heroes is so high that it seems to have overshadowed the surging tide.

Walking in the forefront is the 3,000-ton passenger and cargo dual-purpose "Liguo" ship made by China Merchants Britain, the weather is fine, and the sun is warm on the deck. The soldiers and officers were not very happy to go back to the cabin, seeing that it was time for lunch, and only a few people went to the ship's canteen. China Merchants and Xu Yifan are now considered a family, and the master of the canteen will also make fun, and come out with a large bucket of stews to open a house. The potato beef stew that stayed up all night was fragrant and rotten, full of oil and water. First, a chef wearing a crooked hat, with open arms, and so fat that the meat on his neck was three layers of meat, knocked on the edge of the pot with a rice spoon: "Don't pay for rice in vain!" It is put in refined salt and spices, and there are no potatoes that have survived the winter, and the selection is all tendon meat! Brothers, you're in for a treat! I stayed up all night, and I went to bed at night and watched the fire with one eye open! Brother Yangzhou Ma Hongjun, what he loves is a good man! Everyone, if you eat well and help my brother say a few kind words in front of the handsome, I, Ma Hongjun, see if I can make up a name in the Praetorian Guard? Cook for you every day! There is a food money under the waist of my fat horse, and there are five thunders in the sky, and the thing that gives birth to a son shrinks in the stomach! ”

"Fat horse, your body is enough for us to open a meal!"

"Carrying the cauldron, how many steps can you walk? It's heavy enough for us to carry a gun, and we can't carry you! ”

The soldiers below were laughing. These simple young people from the north, the enthusiastic Nanyang soldiers. is doing an earth-shattering career, and he is followed by the wise and martial Xu Dashuai. No matter where you go, all you win is adoring and admiring gaze. Is there a better life for young people than now?

Li Yunzong stood in the cockpit room, looking through the porthole at the lively soldiers and officers below. Although there was no smile on his face as always, his eyes that were as cold as a knife softened a lot when he looked at them. The four infantry battalions of the Janissaries, as well as the Janissary artillery battalion and the engineer detachment of the second echelon, were personally led south by him.

A voice sounded behind him: "Li Junmen, there is still a day's boat trip to Haizhou......

Li Yunzong turned around quietly, and standing there was a member of the China Merchants Bureau who followed Sheng Xuanhuai to Xu Yifan, in his thirties, quietly doing his job. At first glance, it is the kind of master who will move all over his body when he clicks on the news. China Merchants transported Xu Yifan's entire army to the south this time, and these new assistants were really working hard, and they couldn't wait to show their whole body skills.

“………… Is the shore ready? Li Yunzong asked in a low voice. He is such a cold person, even if his voice is not high, it makes the committee member standing in front of him quietly swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Xu Dashuai didn't know where to find such a cold-faced Hades, it was rumored that in North Korea, it was this character who killed the Datong River and turned it into a red water, with hundreds of thousands of lives! But if it weren't for such a fierce general, he wouldn't be able to win against the little devil!

"If you go back to the military gate, someone will stand in front of you ten days ago, and the dock masters who are proficient in loading and unloading have also been transferred, and thousands of masters have been recruited on the spot, in addition to unloading the ship, you can also transport heavy luggage with the army until Xuzhou............ Haizhou port is small, the facilities are not complete, we still have crane ships waiting there! The lower officials can't guarantee the handsome! ”

Li Yunzong nodded silently and walked out with his hands behind his back. When he got to the door, he stopped again, turned around and patted the commissioner on the shoulder. Maybe he meant to soothe the newcomers, but as soon as he did, he slapped his hand on the shoulder, and the commissioner even felt a chill on the back of his neck. Li Yunzong's words were even more icy.

"Well done, we will calm the surroundings of Jiangning for Dashuai, so that Dashuai can set off the wind and thunder wholeheartedly!"

(To be continued)
