Episode 54 Daming Franco

After Xiang Xiaoqiang heard this string of will from the empress, .

When he first heard about "being promoted to the rank of lieutenant general" and "expanding the People's Guard Corps to 100,000 people," he was still in a burst of ecstasy, and he had already greatly exceeded his expectations. Immediately after Zhu Yourong said that "the armed forces of the whole country are under the control of the People's Guard", especially when "the Praetorian Guard is under the command of Xiaoqiang", Xiang Xiaoqiang's heart beat very hard, and he faintly felt that it was inappropriate.

He suddenly realized how naïve Zhu Yourong was in politics, and how much power he gave a person. He jerked around to look at his subordinates behind him, their eyes were green, full of incredible ecstasy, longing, and hatred for Jung Kyung-in.

How meaningful this edict is, only Zhu Yourong doesn't know it in the room.

As long as you want, you can be the Franco of the Ming Dynasty. …… At least with the external conditions to be Franco, whether you can do it or not depends on your own deeds.

Now Zheng Gongyin is against it, but in this situation, his persuasiveness to Zhu Yourong is very weak. As long as you are willing, you can take this edict.

Sure enough, Zhu Yourong looked at Zheng Gongyin lightly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said sarcastically:

"Now, uncle, don't you say a word!"

Mrs. Li looked at Zheng Gongyin in horror and hurriedly glanced at him. She only knows that it's good to be okay now, Your Majesty will seal whoever she likes, and if you are so ignorant, your Majesty will be angry, and everyone will be unlucky.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Gongyin did not relent, as if he had let go, and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, one yard is one yard, I did this thing against the grain, now you can punish me however you want, but you must listen to me in this matter! Rong Rong, uncle is your relative, and he will never harm you! ”

Zhu Yourong snorted coldly:

"You won't harm me, but you almost hurt the people of Nanjing! …… Almost harmed the Ming Dynasty! …… Uncle, I don't understand, why do you hate Xiang Qing so much? Just because he saved me at my behest and made you fail? ”

Zheng Gongyin was stunned for a moment, and said bitterly:

"Rong Rong, you can't hand over such a lot of power to an outsider! …… You are tantamount to handing over the entire Ming Dynasty to him! Give our net worth and life, as well as yourself, to Xiang Xiaoqiang! Rong Rong, you have to think about it! Our Ming Dynasty can't make a ...... in your hands Out of Mussolini! ”

Zhu Yourong's face turned pale with anger, he bit his lip and trembled, pointing at Xiang Xiaoqiang and saying angrily to Zheng Gongyin:

"You...... You say Xiang Qing is Mussolini? So what are you? You say that the power is too great to be given to him, so to whom? Over to you? Give it to him Mussolini, so what is it to give it to you? ”

Zhu Yourong said that tears came out of his eyes, his chest trembled, and he couldn't cry:

Xiang Qing ...... Xiang Qing has been loyal to me again and again,...... The female soldiers of the Grasshopper were captured by the Qing captives, the cabinet was unwilling to save them, Dongchang had no choice, and you couldn't do anything, only Xiang Qing fought for his life, went to the north to live and die, and rescued the dozen or so female soldiers for me! And ......"

Zheng Gongyin remembered the philistine face that he bargained with Xiaoqiang for him, and couldn't help but say:

"Your Majesty, Xiang Xiaoqiang went purely for money that time! You didn't see how he asked me for a price, and the opening was a million Mingyang, and in the end it was me who ......"

Zhu Yourong was in tears, looked at Zheng Gongyin very sadly, and said slowly:

"Uncle...... You've gotten to this point...... You are so ...... to Xiang Qing You said that Xiang Qing went for money, so good, don't say 1 million, I will give you 10 million, you go to save people for me, is it okay? ”

“…… Your Majesty! ”

Zhu Yourong wiped his tears and continued:

"Okay, you said that Xiang Qing was for money this time, so what about Xiang Qing saving people in Pukou for the first time? …… No one promised him any conditions, but he still risked his life and did what he felt he should do! …… After he came back that time, not only did he not get any reward, but he was interrogated and locked up for several days by Jinyiwei, and he was wronged so much that he didn't even have money to eat when he was released! But did he complain? No! Later, he learned that Daming needed him...... When it was time for him to risk his life and serve me again, he did it without hesitation! This is the second time!

"For the third time, Xiang Qing had just successfully returned from the Northern Qing Dynasty, and when he hadn't taken a breath, I needed him to be loyal again! …… At that time, Fang Hongru's cabinet wanted to empty the imperial family, refused to hand over power, and hindered the national mobilization, and almost couldn't resist the Qing captives! At that time, Dongchang was helpless, the army was waiting, uncle, you didn't have anything to do.

“…… It's still Xiang Qing, empty-handed, with no money and no power, but he just came up with a clever plan and pulled out a people's guard force out of thin air! Yes, although it is a rabble, it is these rabble that saved the Ming Dynasty and saved me overnight! It was Xiang Qing who put the power of the Son of Heaven in my hands! It was Xiang Qing who made me a real emperor! …… It's Xiang Qing! Not the army! It's not a factory guard! It's not you, uncle!

"For the fourth time, an elite Eight Banners division broke through the defense line, ate one of our reinforced divisions in one bite, and suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Nanjing! At that time, there was not a single army nearby, and it was about to let the Qing captives go straight to Nanjing! Hmph, I still remember the situation at that time, and the entire headquarters was panicked! Quite a few people are going to run away! …… Still still Xiang Qing, after receiving a call from me, immediately led the People's Guards to the south to meet the battle, and within a few hours, with 10,000 people, they wiped out 15,000 Qing prisoners and saved Nanjing!

“…… I remember the last time the People's Guard Corps tanks were allocated, Xiang Qing could have brought all the tanks down, but he said that he couldn't just think about himself, and other troops also needed ...... I listened to him and gave him only half of it...... I regret it now, if I had given all the tanks to Xiang Qing at that time, the results would have ended here! …… Even now, Xiang Qing can use 150 tanks to meet the Qing captives, instead of the current 75! I believe that if Xiang Qing had 150 tanks in his hands, Nanjing would be 100% safe!

"The fifth, this time! Uncle, you ...... If you do this kind of thing, you are going to make Yangzhou re-staged on the 10th! …… It's still Xiang Qing, who only received a note from me, and immediately came to save me again! …… In fact, I knew that Xiang Qing had a choice at that time, and he didn't have to risk his life to save me. Everyone wanted to withdraw, and Xiang Qing followed suit, there was nothing wrong with it! Moreover, he also has a good reason: the Purple Mountain Fortress is not so easy to enter. There is a fortress on the mountainside, a machine gun at the door, and there are one level after another inside...... Xiang Qing can say that he can't get in, and I won't blame him...... But Xiang Qing came in! Because the note I gave him said 'Come and save me', he will come in even if he racks his brains!

"Such a person, so silently loyal to me, has done so much for me...... So many things that others can't do, why don't I trust him? Why don't I trust him? If such a person can't be trusted, ask the entire Ming Dynasty, who else can make me trust? Right now...... Uncle, you're going to pour dirty water on him! You say I can't trust him, do I have to trust you? ”

Zheng Gongyin looked at his niece with tears streaming down his face, knowing that it was useless to say anything at this time. He sighed silently, and finally persuaded:

"Rong Rong, listen to your uncle's words, at least bring out the Praetorian Guard."

Zhu Yourong smiled coldly, but said:

"Now the Praetorian Guard is ** out. How? ”

Zheng Gongyin was speechless.

He was stunned for a moment, sighed bitterly, buried his face in his palms, and muttered:

"Okay...... All right...... Uncle is not qualified to persuade you...... Uncle won't persuade you anymore......"

Zhu Yourong wiped away his tears and said:

"Xiang Qing, take the edict!"

Xiang Xiaoqiang didn't say a word, bowed down and said loudly:

"Minister, take the edict!"

When the voice fell, Zheng Gongyin was taken aback, raised his face, and stared at Xiang Xiaoqiang. He never expected Xiang Xiaoqiang to not even excuse himself.

The subordinates behind Xiang Xiaoqiang all smiled from ear to ear.

Standing on the side, Fourteen Ge lowered his eyes at this time, and his face was as white as paper.

Xiang Xiaoqiang was very satisfied with the performance of the fourteen grids. When Zhu Yourong was talking at length just now, the fourteen grids kept giving Xiang Xiaoqiang a look, desperately making eyes, and constantly making a "prevarication" lip shape, implying that he could not accept this kind of edict.

Xiang Xiaoqiang understood that Fourteen Gege was completely from his position and considered for him.

If Fourteen Gege only thinks about himself, he would wish to become Mussolini as soon as possible. In that way, Xiang Xiaoqiang pinched the empress in her hand, and she pinched Xiang Xiaoqiang in her hand, and there would be many more possibilities in the future. Xiang Xiaoqiang is very sober and knows that playing with his wrist is not an opponent of the fourteen grids. Even if he really has great power, the "First Army Division" around him, for a long time, can only be fourteen grids. Although you won't be toyed with by her, at least you will rely on her a lot, otherwise the huge power in your hands will be as unstable as nitroglycerin, and sooner or later you will blow yourself to pieces.

Now seeing that Fourteen Gege did not let himself accept the edict, Xiang Xiaoqiang dared to accept the edict instead. …… Because, fourteen grids are more reliable than imagined.

When Xiang Xiaoqiang chose to accept the royal employment and take a group of people to the Northern Qing Dynasty to fight for his life, he made up his mind that the five years in the Ming Dynasty must not be mediocre, and must be vigorous. It is precisely because it is short that it should be as exciting as possible.

The moment he chose not to retreat, but to lead the team into the fortress under the order, he had already bet his life on his life. Now this edict is just its own color. …… It's just that I never expected to win so much that I didn't dare to take it.

But I only have five years in Daming, and I have to seize the opportunity when it comes to it, and I don't have time to boil it slowly. Since you have made up your mind to be vigorous, don't be afraid that the power will be too hot. Besides, why are you hesitating? Isn't it just that you are worried about falling back to Mussolini's fate? It doesn't matter, it's only five years! Just promise not to be eaten by power within five years, and go back after five years, whatever he does! As for their families, Qiu Yun and Xiuxiu, Xiang Xiaoqiang made up their minds that they would immigrate from Daming in the last year, and they could go to the United States or Switzerland, with the huge wealth left to them. They are young, beautiful, and wealthy, and can easily find a love for themselves again......

Xiang Xiaoqiang thought of this, his nose was sour, and he said loudly again:

"Minister, take the edict!"

As he spoke, he bowed down and took the edict from the delighted Zhu Yourong, officially becoming the most powerful person in addition to the empress and the first minister.
