Chapter 348: Queue up, eat fruits

"Yue Chaolong...... It's a very good man, if he runs away, he will run away, he can't stand him, and he went to vote for Li Thief, and he can't complain about him......"

Changsha, General Fuyuan, Yinzhen sighed for a long time, although he was talking about Yue Chaolong, he was thinking about himself.

Chen Wance, who was still dialing the abacus, didn't answer, and Yinzhen had to ask directly: "Where will I go next?" South, Northwest or Back to Beijing? ”

The crackling sound stopped, and Chen Wance persuaded: "General, you are the face of the emperor, how can I not let you return to Beijing now." From the northwest, the south still needs to screen the domain, and the battle of Yizhang, the general is just a small setback, so you don't have to take it to heart. ”

Peng's voice, Yinzhen slapped on the bookcase, and it was difficult to control his emotions.

"How could I not take it to heart!? I'm defeated! Defeat badly! Huang Amma's trust to me has been completely disappointed! Tens of thousands of soldiers were killed by me! I can't fool myself! I'm grateful to you, Yanxin, you, and Liu Shiming's gang for helping me do this whitewashing! But I'm so bad! I don't know if I can still shoulder the responsibility of this great general......"

These words have been suppressed in the bottom of my heart for a long time, and Yinzhen is almost half crying. Chen Wance didn't dare to look directly, and saw the true feelings of this young prince from the corner of his eye, and said in his heart that the person selected today is actually very discerning, this is a sincere person, but he is too young and lacks experience.

"General, although you alone bear the responsibility for the victory or defeat of the army, it is appropriate to fight in one battle, and there are too many things outside the battlefield, and the general is not in charge alone."

Chen Wance's persuasion made Yinzhen even more uncomfortable, and he shook his head again and again, unwilling to face it.

"Yue Chaolong is not the kind of rebellious person, Li Wei is the fourth brother's henchman, I have seen that person, he is a good man. Although Hu Qiheng is not familiar with him, he is also a close confidant of Nian Qianyao, so he will not cooperate with the enemy, as for the fourth brother...... That's even more nonsense! ”

Chen Wance said in a deep voice: "The lower officials didn't mention Prince Yong, but Li Thief's move went straight to the key point of my army, has it nothing to do with Hu Li being captured?" That Yue Chaolong commanded tens of thousands of people in Chenzhou, and could not attack thousands of thieves, Hunan Governor He Tenglin also said that this person was slack and timid, why did the battle of Yizhang suddenly turn brave, and gave up the Chinese army to attack Qingxi Mountain? The subordinate was reluctant to punish him, but this person still voted for the thief after all, and it was difficult to clear his suspicion. ”

Yinzhen was stunned for a while, his eyes were dilated, and he muttered: "That has nothing to do with the fourth brother." ”

Chen Wance said in his heart It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, the key is to believe the emperor, but unfortunately, the emperor didn't think that he had just restored the position of Prince Yong, and it would be too childish to rectify it, I am afraid that now Prince Yong has been removed from the throne and directly imprisoned.

"The capital can't go back, where will it be?"

Yinzhen didn't go deep into this topic, and then turned to himself, and the way forward with this army. Speaking of which, thanks to the fact that the soldiers and horses from all walks of life did not have time to gather before, after he retreated to Changsha, there were actually 30,000 or 40,000 troops still intact on the books, plus the remnants of the collected soldiers, and he could confidently say that the army was not damaged.

Now Yinzhen is most worried about Kangxi asking him to lead his troops to the south and confront Li Xi again, in his opinion, to fight head-on with Li Shi's strong army without falling behind, how can he have 100,000 brave soldiers comparable to the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion, and then there are three or five hundred generals, and more importantly, there must be a flat and broad battlefield.

"Most of them are going to the northwest......"

Chen Wance's words are just comfort, although the earliest general Fuyuan was set up for the northwest, but there are Fu Erdan in the northwest, Fu Ning'an, Qi Lide, and Yinzhen squeezed over, who is this Hunan lost to?

Yinzhen was swallowing bitter water, Goshha sent a letter, and when he looked at the cover, it was a letter from Nian Qianyao, and his head was suddenly big, just that Nian Qianyao wanted to intercede for Yue Chaolong.

Chen Wance buried his head and continued to calculate his accounts, but he didn't hear Yinzhen's voice for a long time, and he was surprised, Yinzhen also said in a surprised tone: "It's really a miracle for Mr. Chu!" Nian Qianyao wrote to say that he was going to prepare military rations for me in the future, and he was considered a subordinate who worked in front of my account, and he came to ask for peace......"

The northwest used troops, Shaanxi, Gansu and rice were not enough to meet the military needs, and relied on Sichuan.

Chen Wance was moved in his heart, this year, I am afraid that it is not just "communication", but expression. The most powerful members of the sect began to find another way, and the future of Prince Yong Yinzhen was really bleak.

In the white city of Yingde, Tang Youzeng was flipping through a large stack of newspapers. Now there are many newspapers under the rule of Yinghua, and the "Yinghua Newsletter" of the Tianwangfu is a new dynasty bulletin, which contains the new decrees of the Yinghua court, the latest news of the victory of the Yinghua army, and the demeanor, words and deeds of Li Tianwang himself.

He still likes to read the Yuexiu Times, which was the first newspaper to comment on the decrees of the Anglo-Chinese court. Not only did he say good things, but he also occasionally criticized some details of the decree. The main writer "Lei Zhenzi" has a deep text, although he also feels that the theme of this newspaper is to flatter the new dynasty, but not only does he analyze many decrees very thoroughly, but he still reveals the style of a scholar between the lines, at least it is fair on the surface.

The other "Industrial and Commercial Express" and "Huangpu Xinbao" are all businessmen's affairs, just like the wall stickers that the business name is calling for fame, so naturally it can't enter Tang Youzeng's eyes, while the "Baicheng Journal" talks about the way of God and what truth, which makes Tang Youzeng dazzling. Recently, a new "Zhongliu" was released, which was all about the affairs under the rule of the Qing court in the north, and Tang You was a must-see in every issue.

"Kangxi Xing Prison, Han Chen was detained, and the prison of the Criminal Department howled and cried to the sky......"

Seeing hundreds of Hanchen led by Tian Congdian being locked up and taken out of prison, Tang Youzeng's heartstrings swayed, and he sighed: "Fifth Brother Ke, you have suffered an unjustified disaster......

"Brother Xiya, congratulations."

Duan Hongshi appeared, with a weird smile on his face, and he gave up his hands again and again, Tang You pretended not to see it.

"The King of Heaven said that your loyalty to the Northern Dynasty moved heaven and earth, and he did not want to be embarrassed anymore, and wanted to release you all together."

When these words came out, Tang Youzeng's eyes widened, and he almost jumped up, but it was not the guards who stopped him, and his hands almost pinched Duan Hongshi's neck.

"How does this work!?"

Tang You once roared in his mouth, and scolded in his heart, Li Shi, this kid is too bad! If you put us back at this time, do you want us all to go to jail? Seeing that he can still bear the name of unyielding loyalty, save his life and protect his family, this time, everything will be gone.

"Wait...... Northern Dynasty ......"

Unable to distinguish the truth of Duan Hongshi's words, Tang Youzeng's attention was drawn to the deep meaning contained in his words.

"You mean...... It can't be, absolutely impossible! ”

Tang You once shook the newspaper, only when Duan Hongshi was making a double joke.

"Don't think that if you defeat the imperial court once in Hunan, the imperial court will panic and lose its heart. I didn't see that the emperor was in the court, and he was fighting hard inside and outside, trying to fight with you, the puppet dynasty!? ”

He pointed out what Duan Hongshi said.

"You, and your demon disciple, don't be so arrogant, thinking that you can rule across the river from the imperial court, looking north and south, the emperor will never tolerate this Yinghua puppet dynasty!"

Duan Hongshi tilted his mouth and shook his head, Tang You was well versed in the roots of both sides, but he didn't see the current situation clearly.

"Within this year, it will be difficult to fight again, Brother Xiya, don't bother with that effort, and finally think that the court in the north can come to the door."

Seeing that Tang Youzeng was still full of disbelief, Duan Hongshi said more: "Li Guangdi gave that Kangxi Lao'er another bad idea, this time he completely listened to it, four words: tight inside and loose outside, you see, the northern court is busy investigating the thief's official." ”

The news in the "Zhongliu" newspaper squeezed into Tang Youzeng's mind, and he sighed weakly again.

Duan Hongshi continued: "The northern imperial court is busy with internal affairs, and I, Yinghua, also have some internal affairs to rectify. Brother Xiya, the trial is approaching, you are familiar with this matter, my disciple wants you to help with the cooking. ”

Tang Youzeng snorted, come again!? Are you annoyed?

Duan Hongshi sighed: "I still don't want to, then we Yinghua, and I don't want to leave you in trouble, what I said just now is not a joke, Brother Xiya, you can do it yourself." ”

Tang Youzeng's eyes popped up again, threatening! It's a threat!

Duan Hongshi smiled crookedly, his heart was right, this was a threat. In the north, Kangxi was taking care of officials related to Yinghua and Li Shi, and even the officials who had been stamped on the submission to Li Shi in the past were not spared. Those who are still willing to go back at this time are determined to follow the Manchu Qing Dynasty to the dark, and it is useless to stay. You Tang You really want to have your own "name", so you don't bother to waste any more effort on you.

Tang Youzeng had read the book thoroughly, cleared his throat, and said indifferently: "A gentleman cherishes his body for the sake of righteousness." ”

Therefore, Tang Youzeng became a white senator of the Tianwang Mansion and was responsible for preparing for the examination.

Shi Yizhi, who was following a group of officials to clean up the "Qing Dynasty Statutes", was also forced to face this choice, and his response was very simple: "Busy, don't bother me!" ”

He was already a senator of the Heavenly King's Mansion, and from there, he took it a step further and became the head of the Criminal Section of the Shangshu Hall. Of course, if you want to be an official of the British Dynasty, you have to cut your braids. Shi Yi was bored all night, and when the rooster crowed in the early morning, he looked at the "Zhongliu" newspaper on the table, and then looked at the "Yinghua Criminal Law" written by himself, closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, and broke his braid with a click of scissors.

Chen Yuanlong is another key target, he is neat, so he threw out the word "hum", and Li Xian also snorted: "Keep going!" Let go? I'm in a bad mood today. ”

He thought that the defeat of Yinzhen Yizhang was that he confided in the conspiracy of the imperial court, broke the jar and broke the "thief ship" of Li Shi, and was sent back to Hunan by Li Shi to preside over the public security and defense of Yongzhou, Chenzhou and Guiyang.

"Li Wei will never give in, Heavenly King, there is no need to expect anything from him."

Hu Qiheng hates Li Wei very much now, because Li Wei always scolds him for being a national thief who has betrayed the court's plan, since you want to be so loyal, then give you a ride......"

"Yes, that guy eats hard and doesn't eat soft, he just saw the hardness of the court before, saw the hardness of Yinzhen, the real indestructible hardness in this world, he hasn't learned it yet."

Li Xi smiled slightly, Li Wei has to play again, but he can't take care of such a trivial matter now.

Taking advantage of Kangxi's anger and anger, Li Shi disposed of a large number of arrested Qing court officials. As he expected, apart from Chen Yuanlong, there were only some ignorant and innocent state and county officials and middle-level generals who really wanted to go back. Even Zhang Chaowu, the former governor of Guangxi, who had always been stubborn, was let go. Li Xi is sure that the fate of these people will set an example of respect.

Letting go of the "old people" and ushering in the "new people", in addition to Tang Youzeng Shi Yizhi, Yue Chaolong's investment is also an unexpected gain. Li Xian fulfilled his wish and let him go to the Whampoa Martial Arts School. The "righteousness" of the other two chivalrous men is tougher than the loyalty of the officials and gentlemen, Zhou Kunlai and Gan Fengchi, who had infiltrated Guangzhou before and attempted to assassinate him, never had any repentance, and Li Shi also classified them and Li Wei into the same category, ready to finish the major matter in front of him and then take care of it.

"You mean, that Ru Xi has accumulated a good name?"

There was a hint of amusement in Li Shi's tone.

"The little one failed to comprehend the true meaning of the Heavenly King, and hoped that the Heavenly King would forgive his sins!"

Gui Zhen, who was guarding the banner workers in Shilu City, knelt on the ground and pounded his head like garlic.

"Just keep an eye on what she's doing, don't embarrass her."

Li Xi said casually, he almost forgot about Ru Xi, naturally it is not a big deal, and even Shi Lu is not a big thing he is busy with, the real big thing is the adjustment of the industrial and commercial layout involved in Shi Lu's ownership.
