At the gate of the Zhuang Wangfu in Fengtian City, several palace guards stopped Yan Huang and his party, and the person who started the first one told with a sneer: "Prince Xian, when my prince came back, he said that he was a little tired and didn't want to see people, otherwise, you and a few Belle lords will come back another day." ”

As soon as the words fell, a whip came to his face, and the guards couldn't help but scream.

Immediately, Yan Huang kicked his feet and yelled: "This king wants to see who dares to stop me." ”

Looking at Yan Huang who was like a mad dog and several Beile and Beizi who were also fierce behind him, the people in Zhuangwangfu were frightened, and some people immediately crawled to the mansion to report the news, Yan Huang didn't care about him, and immediately rushed in with a few princes.

When Yanhuang and them broke into the courtyard a few times, the head of King Zhuang's Mansion was already blocking their way: "Lord Xian, the prince of my family invites you and a few princes to wait in the study, and he will come out to see you after changing his clothes." ”

I heard that Bo Guoduo was going to the toilet, and several princes were not easy to rush to the toilet, so they had to follow the chief manager to Bo Guoduo's study angrily, and drank the tea served by the people in the palace with no taste.

After a while, Bo Guoduo, who had changed into living clothes, appeared, and the one who came up to split his head and cover his face scolded: "King Xian, you are so powerful, the majesty has come to my head, what do you mean, do you want to demolish my Zhuangwang Mansion?" ”

Bo Guoduo's words shocked several other Baylors and Beizi, but Yan Huang didn't eat him: "It's trivial to demolish King Zhuang's mansion, King Zhuang, you were cutting off our roots just now, you are honest, what benefits did you receive from Tongzhi, and you actually betrayed the interests of the people outside the Guanwai banner, if you don't make it clear, Lao Tzu won't leave." ”

There was Yan Huang at the beginning, and someone on the side said: "King Zhuang, more than two months ago, you were not opposed to giving up Fengtian, how can you change the hexagram now, this is really to put all the clothes and Zhuangzi abandoned, how will we live in the future!" ”

Bo Guoduo swept them and snorted lightly: "A bunch of fools, they know how to make a fuss, and they have the ability to make Hai Reverse not kill him." ”

When it came to the Xia army, the princes and belorians present were silent, so they listened to Bo Guoduo continue: "I was against moving a few years ago, but that was because I knew that Hai Rebellion could not take Fengtian before winter, but after the beginning of spring, the Xia army will inevitably take action, if it does not withdraw at that time, the war will be together, and Zhuangzi and Aha will not be able to keep it." ”

Although this sound a little reasonable, Yan Huang still couldn't help his dissatisfaction, and opened his mouth to ask: "Then we can't promise the imperial court to carry all the clothes into flags, without them, who will grow grain for us, without Zhuangzi's input, how can we live." ”

Bo Guoduo sneered: "Of course, the imperial court wants to accept our Zhuangzi and minions, and it can't be collected in vain. ”

"It's a complete joke to give us land outside the new capital, no one has planted anything. Besides, if the 600,000 or 700,000 people around Mukden start to move now, it will take a few months, and when they get to the land, they will have to build houses and open up wasteland, and finally they can plant winter wheat, and there is no need to count on this year's harvest. Yan Huang asked suspiciously. The imperial court can support this little bit of people and support the war on Fengtian's side is already good, what can it compensate us? ”

"What does Prince Xian want the court to compensate? Gold? Silver? Dongzhu or some other treasure? Bogoduo suddenly burst into a foul mouth. Bullshit, at this time, these things are useless, the important thing is nothing more than food and soldiers. "A sentence woke up the nobles present, yes, in the troubled times, military power is the most important." Prince Xian is right, there is no harvest for most of this year, and at most he will rush to plant a few peanuts and potatoes. The imperial court wants to feed these tens of thousands of troops who are fighting against Fengtian, and I am afraid that there is no food to supply us. However, there is no food in the imperial court, and there is no food in any of our families, you can see it, the imperial court will definitely beat our idea, and we will make a price when the time comes. ”

Bo Guoduo stretched out his hand and compared it in front of the prince outside the gate: "This king is going to ask the court for fifteen Niu Lu's soldiers, as for how much you are going to want, I have a bottom in my heart, and the court will not agree to report the high, and if the report is low, it is you who will suffer." ”

A Niu Lu is an assistant leader, but it is no longer possible for the Qing court to form a 500-person level assistant leader according to the system of internal and external firearms battalions and the Eight Banners New Army, if it is calculated according to the number of 150 troops under the Eight Banners and one Zuo Leader outside the Guan, Bo Guoduo's asking price this time is 2,250 people, which should not be considered a sky-high asking price.

It's just that Yan Huang is a little worried: "What if the imperial court doesn't agree to give us soldiers?" No food? I'm afraid it won't work. ”

"No soldiers." Bogodor's face tightened, and his tone was extremely solemn. "It's okay, but after the provinces are coated and the flag is raised, they are still under the control of the provinces, and in addition, this king asks for the command to also lead the minister of the flag king with a white flag."

All of a sudden, the princes present jumped up, and many people shouted: "Yes, rebuild the Eight Banners, rebuild the Eight Banners!" ”

Of course, the Eight Banners have always existed, but the flag owner Wang Ye can't manage the flag at all, and the flags appointed by the Qing court are only nominally in charge, and the Qiē flag affairs are all in the hands of the Qing Emperor.

Yan Huang didn't expect Bo Guoduo's ambition to be so big, he just muttered, "The imperial court will not agree." ”

"I won't agree, but the lesser of two evils." Bogodo replied calmly. "Let's hold a group and use population and food to talk to the court about flag affairs, and then pretend to give in and then talk about military power, do you say, will the court agree?"

Yan Huang frowned: "The court may agree, or may not??????"

Bogoduo interrupted, "So, if you don't come, this king is already ready to visit the general king!" ”

"The Great General King?" Yan Huang felt a sudden shock in his heart. "Lord Zhuang, don't you want to ???????"

Yan Huang wanted to speak and stopped, but Bo Guoduo shook his head very clearly: "It's all about this, this king is not confused, he has to provoke Yunyu to give that little guy infighting, rest assured, this king is here to persuade him to come out to work for the Qing Dynasty, of course, by the way, also make a deal." ”

"Deal?" Yan Huang and the Eight Banners princes outside the gate were confused. "What deal?"

"The Buddha said, don't say, don't say." Bogoduo sells Guanzi. "You guys just wait for the good news??????"

The next day, Yunyou, Yunyu, and Yunyu came together to visit Yunyu, who was said to be not in good health, of course, the visit was fake, and it was true to persuade Yunyu to come out and lead the army, and part of it was to find out the purpose of Bo Guoduo's visit to Yunyu yesterday - when Beijing retreated, most of the people in the Age Mansion withdrew, so Emperor Tongzhi couldn't know what Bo Guoduo and Yunyu said.

"Seventh brother, twelfth brother, I also know the decision of the imperial court," looking at the brothers, Yun Yu just asked. "If the imperial court moves the capital and emigrates, what will happen to the food of the army on the southern front? You let me lead the troops, you don't necessarily let me lead a starving army to fight the Xia army, right? There is also a large Xia army, it can completely encircle Fengtian and then divide the troops to the north, the Songhua River is not a natural danger can not stop the Xia army at all, do you want to protect Liaodong or keep most of the pass, you have to give me a clear statement. ”

Prince Yunyou replied: "Of course, the imperial court wants to keep the entire Guanwai, but if you really can't have both, please also ask the old fourteenth to block the Xia army south of the Songhua River, so that the imperial court has a chance to breathe." ”

Prince Yun Yi added: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if you let the Xia army cross the Songhua River, you must block them out of the diagonal line of Qiqihar, Aljin (Harbin), Ningguta, and Twin Cities. ”

Yun Yu smiled faintly: "It's easy to say, what about soldiers?" What about grain? How much can the court prepare for me? ”

"The imperial court is ready to give 40,000 soldiers and horses to Brother Fourteen." Prince Yu Yun Yu paid attention to Yun Yu's reaction while reporting the number, and saw that Yun Yu was not surprised at all, obviously he had already known the relevant information. "Brother Fourteen, don't be afraid of the lack of soldiers, the imperial court now has 60,000 horses, of which 10,000 will be used in Mongolia, and 10,000 will be prepared to guard against the Oros."

Is it to guard against Oros or to guard against himself, Yun Yu, who knew it, asked quietly: "Forty thousand, a little less, but the court has difficulties, and I know that it can only be like this at the moment, but I have two conditions, I hope the court can agree, otherwise, I can't bring this soldier." ”

Yunyou hurriedly asked: "What conditions, if you say that you can agree, the court will definitely agree." ”

"First, the soldiers should be selected personally, and my people will be used, but please rest assured that the emperor does not have many people in my pocket, most of them still have to use military attaches from the imperial court, and the soldiers selected will not take away the birds and artillery, that thing is cumbersome, it is okay to defend the city, and some field battles will be." Regardless of the ugly faces of the brothers, Yun Yu said to himself. "Second, I want to change the establishment of this army, how to change it, the court doesn't care."

"The latter one, I can promise you now, as long as I can block Xia Jun, you can change it no matter what." After discussing with Yun Yu and Yun Yu, Yun You gave Yun Yu an answer. "But the former one, we can't be the master, we have to report to the emperor and give you an answer, you don't think it will work."

"I'm not in a hurry." Yun Yu said the opposite. "The court can discuss it slowly, it doesn't matter if it succeeds or not. By the way, don't just talk about it, there is also food, without which I can't fight here. ”

Yun Yi cleared his throat and told him with some embarrassment: "After the beginning of spring, hundreds of thousands of immigrants will be immigrated, and the imperial court will not have the strength to spare, if you can, Old Fourteen, you had better solve some of it yourself." ”

"As the old saying goes, the emperor doesn't send hungry soldiers." Yun Yu spread his hands and said helplessly. "The emperor doesn't necessarily want me to fight and farm at the same time." Looking at the three people who were in trouble, Yun Yu said with a smile. "In this way, I'll give the court a move, isn't there a shortage of food? Just find someone to borrow, but there are big families here. ”

"Big family?" Yun Yu's eyes froze. "Brother Fourteen, what did King Zhuang talk to you about yesterday?"

"Yesterday? Zhuang Wang? Yun Yu looked back at each other without showing weakness. The emperor really cares about me, and he sends people to keep an eye on me all day long. But it doesn't matter if you sue you, that old fox just wants to protect himself, whether he agrees or not, it's all in the emperor and the court, just don't delay the war in Liaodong??????"
