[Seeing that the book friends rebelled in the book review area, the cruiser deleted the bloody plot of the previous chapters]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The third phase of Yongping Qiuying ended with the total annihilation of the new army of Zhili and the self-strengthening army, such a large score is extremely rare in the modern history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the concept of the confrontation between the north and the south is ultimately a slight advantage of one side after shaking hands and making peace, the purpose is to save face for the other side. And this time, the result of the total annihilation of the self-strengthening army is really shocking.

Zhang Zhidong was disgraced, and he was so angry that he was about to kill Zhang Xianzhi with a gun, but fortunately he was dissuaded by his subordinates, which saved Zhang Xianzhi's life. However, the death penalty was avoided and the living crime could not be escaped, Zhang Zhidong still gave Zhang Xianzhi fifty boards, opened his ass to flowers, and at the same time dismissed him from his post and never used it. Also punished were several main battalion management bands of the Ziqiang Army, all of which were taken off their crowns and wore flower feathers.

That night, after the confrontation exercise, Wang Chenhao set up a celebration banquet in Changli City and had dinner with all the officers and men of the Zhili New Army.

Wang Chenhao announced in front of Jiang Guidi and all the officers and men of the army that he would not want any of the 100,000 taels of silver he had won from gambling, and that he would use all of it as an additional reward for the new army of Zhili, which would be used to improve the lives of the officers and men of the whole army and reward the meritorious soldiers.

The 100,000 taels of silver were apportioned to less than 10 taels per person, which was not much, but Wang Chenhao's heart moved the officers and men of the whole army, and when the atmosphere was warm, some officers and soldiers used the strength of wine to chant slogans such as "Follow Wang Dashuai and have wine and meat" and "Swear allegiance to Wang Chenhao and Lord Wang", and so on.

While Wang Chenhao and his Zhili New Army were celebrating vigorously, the Ziqiang Army barracks on the other side of Changli were bleak, and after the failure of the confrontation exercise, the feeling of decadence and frustration permeated the hearts of every officer and soldier, and there was still a faint pain in the places where the bodies were bruised and purple by rubber bullets.

One by one, the officers and men looked at the blazing bonfire on the ground of the Zhili New Army garrison in the distance, and could vaguely hear the laughter and frolic of each other's big celebrations. The strong aroma of wine and meat in the breeze whets everyone's appetite and gurgles in their stomachs.

Defeat is defeat, even if Nanyang was defeated in previous years, he did not see much fire in Zhang Zhidong, and the officers and soldiers were still rewarded. But this time, not only was the commander beaten and beaten, but all the officers and soldiers were not rewarded, so they could only drink the northwest wind.

The double punishment of spirit and ** made the self-improvement army chirp and dissatisfied.

During the entire military exercise, Wang Chenhao did not save face for the Ziqiang Army and Zhang Zhidong at all, and it was certain that he offended a large number of officers and soldiers. Some people remembered that Wang Chenhao's head was worth a lot of money on the black market, and even said cruelly, "Just tie him up and exchange it for money."

That night, Wang Chenhao drank freely with all the officers and soldiers of the New Army of Zhili, and he did not get drunk and did not return.

After eight months of sharing weal and woe, Wang Chenhao successfully held the military heart of the new army in his own hands, and now that he has succeeded, Wang Chenhao cannot relax even more, and almost every banquet has gone over to talk to the officers and soldiers and drink a glass of wine. These hundreds of tables went around, although Wang Chenhao's wine glass was small, and Li Guodong mixed it with water, Wang Chenhao couldn't stand the persuasion one by one, and finally he was drunk and unconscious and was carried back to the room to rest.

Wang Chenhao was drunk, and the other officers and soldiers didn't have much fun drinking, so after the whole meal lasted for another half an hour, everyone dispersed and went back to their respective barracks to rest.

On October 12, Cixi and Guangxu were to give instructions to the troops in the exercise, and then commend and reward the victorious side of the exercise.

As a result, Wang Chenhao drank too much last night, and he didn't get up before dawn. Li Hongzhang was very anxious when he learned that Wang Chenhao was drunk, and he was afraid that Guangxu would take the opportunity to go crazy, so he sent someone to take Wang Chenhao back to Kaiping, and then poured a lot of sobering soup to wake up Wang Chenhao.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the imperial award began, Guangxu and Cixi symbolized the surname of a few words, and then Prince Gong announced the victory of the Zhili New Army, and awarded different amounts of silver rewards to officers at all levels of the Zhili New Army.

Wang Chenhao performed well in the exercise and was rewarded for wearing a yellow jacket.

At the same time, the Qing court also presented awards to the foreign instructors of the Zhili New Army. Chief Instructor Hannagan and Chief Advisor General Stanley awarded the third-class Ssangyong Treasure Star and a certificate respectively, and the other foreign instructors awarded a fourth- or fifth-class Ssangyong Treasure Star, supplemented by a certificate.

The "Double Dragon Treasure Star" medal is in the shape of a star, and the pattern is modeled after the national flag of the Qing Dynasty, with the dragon as the symbol. The medal is divided into five classes and eleven grades, and the Ssangyong Baoxing is made of gold and silver jewelry, which is very valuable. The different grades of the stars are mainly distinguished by their color and the jewelry they decorate. For example, the first level of the upper class is inlaid with red gold ground, the green dragon of the law, the golden scales, a large pearl embedded on it, a small pearl embedded in the dragon, and a small pearl inlaid along the edge, red gold star; The first and second level is made of gold land, the green dragon, the golden scales, the small red coral with the smooth surface embedded on the top, the large red coral with the smooth surface embedded in the middle, and the small pearl with a week outside, and the red gold star ray. With the exception of the first and second grades, the rest of the grades are issued with a license as proof. The first and second classes are issued by the Prime Minister's Yamen, and the third, fourth, and fifth classes are awarded by the Prime Minister's Yamen.

The Shuanglong Baoxing reward was based on foreign losses at the beginning, and before the First Sino-Japanese War, foreigners were hired to participate in the war because of the war, and about 1,320 foreigners from 17 countries participated in the First Sino-Japanese War.

For example, in February 1881, Li Hongzhang asked the imperial court to reward the third-class Shuanglong Treasure Star to the outstanding graduates who served in the Beiyang Naval Division, and it stands to reason that the imperial court should also allow it. In the winter of 1881, the "Regulations for Rewarding Foreigners to Ssangyong Baoxing" was promulgated, which further clearly stipulated that Baoxing was specially awarded to foreigners. Ssangyong Baoxing is only awarded to foreigners, but there is no corresponding medal reward system for the Chinese, and this kind of emphasis on the outside and the inside is obviously inappropriate.

Wang Chenhao didn't care much about the court's admiration for foreign countries before, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he suddenly felt it, and he was unhappy in his heart.

The award ceremony lasted for more than two hours and did not end, Wang Chenhao's alcohol strength last night had not passed, and he was weak, tired and sleepy. In addition, I was in a bad mood and suddenly felt sick in my stomach.

When Li Hongzhang saw Wang Chenhao's appearance, he knew that he couldn't help but vomit after drinking too much sobering soup, so he hurriedly said: "Chenhao hold on for a while, this is the place to go." ”

Wang Chenhao couldn't care so much, and said, "I can't help it!" So he took a look and got out.

Li Hongzhang's face was full of helplessness, and he immediately began to think about how to answer once he was discovered.

Wang Chenhao knew that this was a line, so he didn't dare to be too casual. Wang Chenhao turned left and right everywhere to look for thatched houses or remote places, but there were all around him with standing guard and eunuchs and palace maids walking around, and it was too difficult to find a place where no one was.

The more anxious Wang Chenhao was, the more his stomach churned, so he saw a cluster of flower beds not far away, and there didn't seem to be many people, so he covered his mouth and walked there quickly.

Suddenly, Wang Chenhao was not paying attention, and suddenly felt that he had bumped into someone, and when he looked up, he saw that it was a woman, and there was another one next to him. Wang Chenhao was about to say sorry, but suddenly he felt vomited to his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, and he didn't care about apologizing, so he had to run to the flower cluster next to him.

The woman who was hit shouted, "Stop! ”

Wang Chenhao didn't care to listen to her call, and ignored her at all.

The woman who was hit was stunned for a moment, and then she was furious, and she chased after her faster than Wang Chenhao, and grabbed the back of Wang Chenhao's neck.

"Stop!"

Wang Chenhao was violently grabbed by the back of his neck, and he was immediately furious. In the past six months, he has also learned a lot of kung fu in the army, although he is not as good as Li Guodong and other masters, but he also has three points of fire.

Wang Chenhao's head shrank and turned, and it was the golden cicada who used his counter-grappling hand to knock off the hand that grabbed his neck. Unexpectedly, drinking too much made her legs weak and her feet unstable, Wang Chenhao suddenly pounced on the woman who grabbed her, and pressed her hands on her chest.

"Uh......"

"Ahh ……”

The woman suddenly screamed, and Wang Chenhao was about to explain, but he felt a sharp turn in his stomach, and he couldn't help but squirt out.

"Poof......

"Ahh ……”

The woman screamed again.
