Even tired and hungry, Ye Mingchen was so angry with Yang Laosan that he fainted, this time it was also a big injury, after five days of recuperation, Ye Mingchen was still pale, wearing a heavy official uniform, and he turned most of Guangzhou City, and it was reasonable to be contaminated with some heat.

Yang Meng spent three days to set up the coastal defense camp at the foot of the mountain where Lixiangyuan was located, and the 3,000 Eight Banners of the Guangzhou General Mukdena were also stationed in the city of Guangzhou, and the Admiral of the Navy Division and the Admiral by Land were also near Guangzhou, gathering more than 10,000 men and horses.

A large number of troops were gathered in Guangzhou, and the ministers of Britain, France, and the United States, who were stationed in Guangzhou, also sent a note to Ye Mingchen in the city, but the result was that there was no response.

Yang Meng also took the opportunity to inspect the 32 forts to which Guangzhou belonged, counting the more than a dozen hidden forts built by Ding Taichen in recent years, Guangzhou's coastal defense was still a little miserable.

The forts built by Ding Taichen, because of their scale and geography, the blockade of the Pearl River Estuary is extremely limited, most of the forts are built near the shipyard and the Ship Master School, if you want to block the Pearl River Estuary, the thirty-two forts of the imperial court, Yang Meng must hold it in his own hands.

Facing the west gate of Guangzhou at the mouth of the Pearl River, it is also necessary to strengthen the coastal defense offensive, and the drawings for building twenty giant cannon bases on the basis of the original city wall have been placed in front of Yang Meng, but without the assistance of the two Guangzhou official offices, these things can be done by Yang Meng alone, but they are not in accordance with the rules.

"Ye Mingchen's bastard has woken up, it's time for a war of words.

Count the length, prepare the fold. Impeachment of Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang and a scholar of Tirenge University. Falsely reporting military exploits, neglecting coastal defense, abolishing the green camp, not communicating with foreign affairs, and deceiving the imperial court!

The situation of the green camp in Guangzhou will be relaxed. The truth about the decay of the coastal forts will be reported to the imperial court one by one, please kill Ye Mingchen, a mediocre minister and a minister who misled the country and the people! ”

Of the 32 batteries along the coast of Guangzhou, only a few are generally available, and the quality of most of the batteries and artillery is worrying, and there are more than a dozen of the 32 batteries belonging to the naval division and a dozen belonging to the land division, and the rights and responsibilities of many batteries. There are both the share of the water master and the share of the land master.

But these thirty-two forts, except for the largest Humen Fort, where hundreds of soldiers are stationed, the other forts are no different from the barren grass beach.

"Third master, is it too much to please kill Ye Mingchen, most of the imperial court will not agree."

Yang Meng was concerned about Guangzhou's defense. The affairs of officialdom naturally need Xu Ziwei to take the helm.

"Lao Tzu doesn't ask to kill Ye Mingchen. Ye Mingchen's Wang Ba will also ask to kill Yang Laosan in the excerpt, the more severe the words, the better, the court is sandwiched between the two of us, and it will be difficult to behave.

beating Ye Mingchen is whether the previous political achievements of the imperial court are not; Fighting Lao Tzu is whether the current good situation in Jiangnan is over; This matter is in a dilemma, so I have to play fifty boards each.

With this fold, how can we earn the Guangzhou Navy Division and the thirty-two batteries along the coast, these are the basis for us to fight against the great powers, these things can't be earned, let's get out of here as soon as possible! ”

Now for Yang Meng, France's Xilin teaching plan, or the frequent provocations of England are not important matters, the most important thing is to seize Guangzhou's coastal defense, as long as he can control Guangzhou, Yang Meng has the capital to negotiate terms with the powers.

The first port of the Qing Dynasty, the fourth largest port in the world, this is the status of Guangzhou, once the Guangzhou commercial port is blocked, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the economic and trade between the Qing Dynasty and European and American countries.

Although in recent years, Shanghai Road, with the momentum of the concession, but Guangzhou, which is close to Hong Kong and Macao, still sits firmly in the position of the boss of the five major commercial ports, and the export of cloud tobacco is all in the Guangzhou port.

And the demand for cloud smoke in Europe and the United States is also an absolutely rigid demand, cloud smoke is out of stock for three months, I am afraid that the caravans of European and American countries will gather in Guangzhou to buy cloud smoke at sky-high prices, for the smooth passage of Guangzhou port, the great powers really do not hesitate to fight.

"Third master, this matter is a bit suspenseful, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating!"

"It doesn't matter! With the war in Crimea as the foundation, the current imperial court is not sure of the context of the great powers, and the ministers of the imperial court are confused about foreign affairs, Ye Mingchen's previous statement is not convincing under the threat of annihilation, as long as the war starts, Guangzhou is our final say!

When the time comes, take advantage of the chaos to kill Ye Mingchen, without this political enemy, the imperial court will still count on us! ”

"Third Master, can you guarantee that the war will start within the rest of the year? Once there is no war in Guangzhou at that time, I am afraid that the imperial court will not be able to deal with it! ”

"It's not bad, it's really not good, with the troops in hand, the court can't help us."

In Xu Ziwei's view, the matter of Guangzhou is another big gamble, as long as the ministers of the great powers and countries clarify the purpose, they are afraid that the things planned by the third master will have to be fetched with a bamboo basket.

Ye Mingchen's refusal to talk with Yangyi undoubtedly gave the third master a great opportunity, but once there was a channel of communication between the powers and the imperial court, he was afraid that things would not be so easy to handle.

Seeing the resolute attitude of the third master, and thinking about the war that this master never lost, Xu Ziwei thought about it for a while, and then began to put pen to paper to plan the polemic.

"Hmmm! It's not bad, so let's leave it at that! Send it out! ”

Yang Meng's excerpt is on the road, and coincidentally, Ye Mingchen also wrote the excerpt, and the end of the excerpt is also the words "Please kill Yang Meng, the minister of Nanyang".

Under Yang Meng's arrangement, the excerpts of the two arrived at the military plane at the same time, and looking at the excerpts of the two powerful ministers of the Qing Dynasty, Peng Yunzhang, who was a little in good spirits, could only smile helplessly.

Originally, Wenqing's house was going to take over the position of the first assistant of the military aircraft, Peng Yunzhang has worked hard for the past two years, and his spirit has become more and more useless, and he is happy to give way, but it is a pity that this Wenqing's life limit is not successful, and the luck is not successful, and he died of illness in less than half a year after entering the military aircraft.

"It's not a worry-free thing, if you kill me, I will kill you, who of these two can kill whom?

Ye Mingchen became a scholar of Renge University in vain, and he fought with Yang Laosan, and he was a big step behind in the Holy Family.

This Yang Laosan is not a good object. Can't talk well when you get to Guangzhou? Knives, guns, and exits are threats. How can there be a trace of the official authority and official body of the dynasty? ”

Dispose of these two. Peng Yunzhang doesn't have that ability, what kind of object is Yang Laosan, Peng Yunzhang couldn't be clearer, two or three Ye Mingchen's partners may be able to fight with Yang Laosan, without two or three, they will only suffer, after muttering a few words. Peng Yunzhang took the fold and a group of military planes, and rushed to the study.

"This is too much for Third Brother Yang, but so is Ye Mingchen, knowing that Third Brother Yang is domineering, can't he let this happen? There is no trace of the bearing of a frontier minister, Master Peng, how to decide this matter? ”

Like Peng Yunzhang, the four-color stick has also felt that his body and bones are a little bad in the past two years, if it weren't for the deer blood method that Yang Sange received and the secret medicine in the silver box, the little fun of being the emperor. It's going to disappear completely.

In the past few months, the helpless four-color stick has picked up Professor Yang Meng's method of strengthening the body again. After a few months in a row, his complexion has also improved slightly, and now that he has seen Yang Sange's excerpts, the four-color stick has only gratitude in his heart, and under gratitude, the emperor's mind is naturally biased.

"Your Majesty, these two people disregard the official authority and official body, and fight wantonly, it's not a good thing, just rectify the things in the excerpt, as for these two people, they still have to be reprimanded."

Understands what the emperor means, Peng Yunzhang is not serious in this matter, mixing with the fight of the ministers, it is not a good thing for him, the dispute between Ye and Yang, for the imperial court, the sooner it subsides, the better, although Yang Laosan said that he went to Guangzhou, but the holy family did not fall but rose, while the fight between the two was still in the early stage, it was not a bad thing to warn Ye Mingchen.

Once the two fight to the death, the one who dies must be Ye Mingchen, Ye Mingchen is dead, Yang Laosan will be unrestrained in Guangzhou, and it is still necessary for the imperial court to leave Ye Mingchen to balance Yang Laosan.

"Each of the two compartments plays fifty boards, which is still considered old, but this Yang Sange and Ye Zhongtang are afraid that they will not be able to go together, how can the rights and responsibilities of the two be divided between the two?"

In a word, the emperor will assign the rights and responsibilities to Yang Laosan and Guangzhou, which is not a good thing in Peng Yunzhang's opinion, Yang Laosan is too domineering, once the imperial court suppresses Ye Mingchen in terms of power and responsibility, I am afraid that Yang Laosan will have to make inches, if he harms Ye Mingchen in Guangzhou, this matter will not end well.

"Your Majesty, Yang Butang is in charge of foreign affairs, and the five major commercial ports are basically outside the city, does the imperial court also want to restrain Yang Butang's powers?"

"Hmmm! That's right, Third Brother Yang is used to being domineering, and giving him too much power may not be a good thing!

So be it! The city wall of Guangzhou, Ye Mingchen is in the house, Yang Meng is outside, the coastal defense battalion in the fold is under the command of Yang Meng, and the Guangzhou Navy Division is the same, and the green battalion and the Guangzhou general belong to Ye Mingchen.

As for Lian Yong in Guangdong, Third Brother Yang is good at training soldiers, and it is not a bad thing for him to integrate it, but the command of Guangdong Lian Yong still has to be handed over to Ye Mingchen. ”

Over the years in the military aircraft, Peng Yunzhang also realized a truth, as long as the emperor calls Yang Sange, that Yang Laosan will inevitably have good things to do, so that in Guangzhou, Yang Laosan's power is not worse than Ye Mingchen at all, but I am afraid that Ye Mingchen will suffer in the future.

"Your Majesty, although the affairs of foreign affairs are under the jurisdiction of Yang Butang, does the power to exterminate sea bandits have to be assigned to the Liangguang Official Administration?"

tried his best to fight for Ye Mingchen's power, not that Peng Yunzhang was close to Ye Mingchen, but to balance the power between Ye Yang.

Yang Laosan is outside, Ye Mingchen is inside, if Yang Laosan is not good, he will come to besiege the city, once Ye Mingchen is trapped to death, how can he balance Yang Laosan?

"Hmmm! Ye Mingchen has a set of rules in suppressing bandits, and the extermination of bandits still depends on Ye Mingchen, so be it! Let the Guangzhou Navy Division allocate one or two battalions of men and horses under Ye Mingchen's command, and Ye Mingchen's green camp will also exchange one or two battalions of men and horses with Yang Sange, so that the duties and powers of the two will be more balanced. ”

Like Peng Yunzhang, as the emperor's four-color stick, he also has to balance Yang Meng, and the saints return to the saints, and some things still have to be done according to the rules.

"Your Majesty!"

The edict reprimanded by the imperial court was to follow the red single boat by sea, Yang Meng got the edict, and naturally he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, the four-color stick was familiar with each other, and he was in charge of things outside the city, and this power and responsibility were great, and after that, Ye Mingchen's old Wang Ba could only obediently shrink in the city of Guangzhou.

"Yang San's holy family is so deep, it's hateful! This hateful Yang Laosan, why didn't the fairy god accept him? ”

Ye Mingchen's power in Guangzhou was divided by most of it at once, which not only affected his position in Guangzhou, but also had a great impact on his position as governor of Guangzhou.

The sailor is gone, Lian Yong was rectified by Yang San, I'm afraid it's gone, plus a few battalions of green battalion soldiers, the men and horses in his hands were directly dismantled.

And Yang Laosan's side is both a sailor and a green battalion, with his ability, he is afraid that he will be able to train an elite army of soldiers and horses in the rest of the year.

Yang Laosan is embarrassed in terms of money and food, Ye Mingchen can only think about this, the customs tax is not only a big income in Guangzhou, but also a lot of income for Liangguang, once Yang Laosan controls the customs, he Ye Mingchen can't say that he has to ask Yang Laosan for money?

"One wrong move to lose the whole game, Yang Laosan is not simple!"

Thinking about it carefully, what Yang Laosan did after he arrived in Guangzhou, Ye Mingchen was also shocked, this Yang Laosan is a very scheming character, and he is against him, I am afraid that he will not die well. (To be continued......)
