The slogan of revenge was also shouted from the Guangzhou wharf, from the mouths of British merchants and English sailors, although the call for revenge on the Guangzhou wharf was high, but the security of the wharf was surprisingly good.

There are fewer and fewer armed fights and provocations, but behind the grim shape of the Guangzhou wharf, it is the beginning of calm, not only the personnel are fighting less, but the commercial disputes at the Guangzhou wharf are slowly beginning to decrease, and Yang Butang, who commanded Guangzhou to practice Yong and win a big victory over Yingyi, has also become a well-known figure near Guangzhou.

"Yang Butang, the sound of Yingyi's revenge is all over Guangzhou, how should we deal with it?"

Lixiang Garden, in the courtyard where Yang Meng lived, Ye Mingchen came to visit Yang Meng for the first time, he didn't come alone, from Pan Shicheng down, officials with names and surnames in Liangguang gathered in Yang Meng's residence.

"Clamor is the expression of the cowardice of the weak! It's okay to ignore it, but during this time, if someone blatantly provokes, they will be killed when they are killed, and they will be beaten when they are beaten! Don't save face for anyone!

What you have to worry about is not these trivial matters, but raising military funds and gathering soldiers from the two Guangzhous is your first priority at the moment.

It is an indisputable fact that the Green Battalion was abolished, and in the first battle of Humen, the Guangzhou militia led by Wu Yuanyou suffered seventy percent casualties.

You go back and think about this matter, of course, the pension money of the Guangzhou militia still has to be paid by the two Guangzhou government offices, after all, after the renovation of the wharf, the customs revenue is not enough to support hundreds of thousands of taels of pension silver.

The Eight Banners of Liangguang, we have no right to intervene, General Mukdena. It's your livelihood! The tiger power of the Eight Banners. Still not there. It's not what I say, it depends on the ability in hand, in the battle of Humen, although we said that we won, but next, Yingyi will inevitably retaliate, and the Eight Banners to which General Guangzhou belongs are to watch the show. It's still a battlefield of shopping and obscurity, when how to choose, I don't have much to say!

However, the formation and training of the green battalion has a lesson from the past, and there are more than 60,000 soldiers in the green battalion in Liangguang, how much can we use?

This time it's 2,000, what if it's 20,000 next time? Seventy percent of the casualties of the militia group, what is the outcome when they are replaced by the green battalion?

Guangzhou's security concerns the safety of Guangzhou, and the war has already begun. Although we try our best to avoid it, it is not up to us to decide whether to go to war or not. From this day forward, be careful of all of you who have military power in your hands.

The soldiers brought out are not available, and they are not used when they are obscure, no matter who you are, no matter what your quality is, you can't fight when you bring people and horses, Lao Tzu will kill you, it's not that Lao Tzu doesn't do this Nanyang minister, otherwise Lao Tzu's words, you still have to keep in mind. ”

Why did Ye Mingchen and the others come here, and it wasn't because they were afraid? Wu Yuanyou's report on the war in Humen came up, although it was a big victory, but this battle was also miserable, more than 10,000 people were killed and wounded, and more than 7,000 people were killed and wounded, and the silver for the pension alone cost more than 600,000 taels, and the 600,000 taels of silver were unbearable for the overstretched Liangguang!

If you fight again, you will die again! If you fight again, you will have to spend money again! Since Yang Laosan intercepted the income of the customs, Ye Mingchen has doubled the tax of Liangguang by 50%, although the battle has been won, but the public resentment of Liangguang is also very high!

There are also Yang Meng's hands and feet, including the people of the farm and Wuzhuang, Yang Meng is also unrelenting in the taxation of the imperial court, otherwise how can he smash the ruling foundation of the Qing Dynasty?

"Yang Butang, what you said is the truth, and it is reasonable! But how do we deal with Yingyi now? ”

Yang Meng talked a lot in the vernacular, and what he said was all nonsense, which of the officials here didn't know about these things? Don't forget that there is also a court at the head of the Liangguang official office!

Yang Laosan's words are good, the combat power of the Eight Banners is not good, and the combat power of the Green Battalion is even worse, and it is also common sense that these two groups together are not as good as the militia group.

But the reorganization of the green battalion, a small amount of trouble is still a good job, you Yang Laosan first changed the two lakes green camp, this matter is also said in the past, the two lakes are to deal with the long-haired thief, but the reorganization of the two Guangxi green battalions, or the court to get the idea, you have changed the green camp to a great extent, a green battalion soldier beats ten eight banner soldiers, what should the court think?

Now to say that these are all, without the edict of the imperial court, and to change the green camp without permission, it is not far from death!

For what Yang Meng said, only the Guangzhou General Mukdena was present, and he was indeed under pressure on his side, Jiangning's banner people were killed by long-haired thieves, and the people of Liangguang in the past two years have become more and more unafraid of the power of the Eight Banners, Yang Laosan said it well, he is indeed thinking about the Eight Banners!

As for the other officials, these words are also in the left ear and out of the right ear, saying a big truth, they are more capable than Yang Laosan, or there is no edict from the imperial court in that sentence, these things are heaven-shattering, it is better for the emperor to fart!

"Coping? If you don't respond, you just need to keep sending notes to Pasha Li and Bao Ling, and when they come as promised, you will talk to them, and if they don't come, you will continue to send notes, and when you talk about it, you will never mention the matter of Humen, only the sincerity of our trade, what they say is their business, and what you want to say determines the scale of the war.

In addition, it is to deal with the matter of the traitor businessman Huang Liankai, there is no need to ask the court for this matter, just according to what Lao Tzu said, if something happens, Lao Tzu will take responsibility!

Huang Lian Kai's family, together with the three relatives and six relatives of his relatives, all dug up the ancestral graves, lit the sky lanterns, and let the messengers who shot them be more careful, the lights were not well lit this day, the screams at the scene were not miserable, and Lao Tzu was also going to kill.

Before that, Ye Mingchen, you are in charge of the notice of Liangguang, there is only one statement, if you want to be a traitor, go back to the eighteenth generation of your ancestors, and trace the eighteenth generation of your descendants, don't even think about living!

The people of the prefectures and counties, as long as they can move, must look at the scene of this sky lantern, Lao Tzu just wants to let the people of Liangguang know that the traitors are not people! Insulting their ancestors and cutting off their children and grandchildren is their fate!

Those who are guilty of obstructing the pornography case are guilty of the same crime! Within half a month, you will do this well! ”

Yang Laosan's statement is good, but Yang Laosan's approach is a bit excessive, and now he is implicated in the Huang case. There are already more than 600 people. These more than 600 people. Only a few dozen people are Huang Liankai's family members, and the rest are innocent people, how is this approach different from beasts?

"Yang Butang, this matter must be reported to the imperial court, there are too many people involved, and it cannot be convicted!"

Yang Laosan's approach can be done once and for all, but the Liangguang Official Office has to carry this cruel and ruthless black pot for Yang Laosan, and this thing can't be done!

"What? Are you Ye Mingchen going to be the first person to obstruct the Huang case? You Ye Mingchen family. It also just shows the attitude of the imperial court towards traitors, do you still want to obstruct the Huang case? ”

Ruthless? Perhaps? But now the Qing Dynasty, leaking from all sides, once the English sent more than 100,000 people, as long as a few traitors, can ruin a local war, Wu Yuanyou's militia group, Yang Meng killed more than 3,000 people in the pit, and Huang Lian opened a family. Complain only about it, he Huang Liankai shouldn't be a traitor. Complain only that their relatives and friends have the wrong years!

Now is the time to make rules, Huang Lian opened a case, in addition to posting notices in Liangguang, the other provinces where the four major commercial ports are located are also to post notices, during the war, Yang Meng will spare no effort to crack down on traitors, unjustly kill tens of thousands of people, if you can exterminate the word traitor, it is also worth it!

"Ye obeyed the order, why did the ministry bother to buckle such a big hat? Within half a month, Huang Lian Kai matter, Ye will give an explanation to the ministry! ”

Yang Laosan is Qincha, this is Qincha's power! Although Ye Mingchen was helpless in this regard, he had to choose to deal with Huang Liankai's matter in the way of Yang Laosan, Ye Mingchen also hated Huang Liankai to the core, without this guy who hooked up with foreigners, he would not be so embarrassed in Liangguang.

"That's good! Tomorrow you can send a note to Bowring on Hong Kong Island! This treasure spirit is afraid of me, Lao Tzu's note, he is afraid that he will not dare to respond, Ye Zhongtang probed the tone of Bao Ling and said, if this treasure spirit is loud, we must be careful! ”

Scattered Ye Mingchen and others, Yang Meng is also predicting the future battle situation, the location of the British attack is very easy to guess, the five major commercial ports and Jinkou are the main direction of attack of the British Wing, in addition to this, with the intelligence of the British in China, it is extremely difficult to land from elsewhere!

The risk of Shanghai Road and Jinkou is the greatest, once the British army or the Anglo-French alliance is frustrated in Guangzhou, the second stop should be the Shanghai Road close to the Yangtze River, if the Shanghai Road is unfavorable, the best choice is Jinkou.

The five major commercial ports and Jinkou, the best choice for England is Jinkou, once it threatens the Jingshi, the Qing court is a soft egg, and it is best for the court to have an alliance under the city, which is more unpopular than heavy taxes.

Yang Meng's fingers and claws were slowly stretching out to the other four major commercial ports, and Bao Ling and Pa Xia Li found out the weakness of the Great Qing Kingdom from Ye Mingchen's struggle to refute rumors.

It's still Amsterde's words, behind the surface strength of the Qing Kingdom is the clayfoot giant, very weak! Although a fleet was annihilated, Ye Mingchen's attitude made the two feel that they had seized a rare opportunity.

Yang Butang, who led the Battle of Humen, was not only a diplomat, but also a crazy military strategist, annihilating the advance army composed of three warships and two thousand marines, which was undoubtedly extremely crazy for the two, this was to start an all-out war with England!

At the beginning of the Battle of Humen, that Yang Butang may have been sure of a complete victory, but why did he annihilate the British army? The aim is probably to provoke a larger war between the two countries, right?

Yang Butang is the main battle faction, Ye Mingchen is undoubtedly a weak peacemaker, if he can threaten a large-scale war and force the Qing government to revise the treaty according to the will of the British, the loss of more than 2,000 people and three warships is completely acceptable.

Ye Mingchen sent a diplomatic note a few days ago, and the two didn't dare to deal with it, but now that they have a strategy, setting off for Guangzhou Port has become something that the two must do.

"Lord Ye, we want to take revenge, take revenge on your Qing country, more than 2,000 imperial soldiers will not die in vain, and a larger-scale war awaits Guangzhou!"

Bao Ling roared, roaring out the depression in his heart, he had been under a lot of pressure these days, and once the responsibility for the undeclared war fell on him, he would face hanging or a long prison sentence.

"Governor Bowling, where did this come from, hasn't the relationship between our two countries always been very harmonious? War? Why war? ”

In order to deal with Bao Ling, Ye Mingchen also took out the skills of his whole body, with the translation arranged by Yang Laosan, facing Bao Ling who was roaring hard, Ye Mingchen's face was light.

"Ridiculous, isn't it true that your Qing army killed more than 2,000 imperial soldiers in Humen?"

Rapid? Bao Ling had never had this idea, and looking at Ye Mingchen with a relaxed face, Bao Ling also felt deeply inappropriate.

"Kill your soldiers, how do you say that? I don't know! ”

"Our army, after landing on the Humen Fort, was attacked by the defenders in an all-round way, and this matter cannot be hidden!"

"Landing on the Humen Fort? Governor Belling, this is a breach of contract! You can't do such a thing! You must not act! Humen is a place where my Qing soldiers bravely defended it, and I can't land lightly! ”

What did Bao Ling say, Ye Mingchen only listened to a rough idea, he came completely according to Yang Laosan's orders, pretending to be crazy and stupid, Ye Mingchen was very proficient in this matter at the beginning of his official career, dealing with this foreign devil who was disturbed by anger, that is, touching his mouth.

Looking at the angry Bao Ling, Ye Mingchen also had an inexplicable relief in his heart, this is the sky. The scene and majesty that the court chief should have. (To be continued......)
