Is the sky black, gray, or white?

Zhu Tao opened his eyes, but he didn't know what he saw, and his ears were buzzing, was it a helicopter?

A figure appeared, leaned down to face him, and said, "You're awake." ”

Zhu Tao wanted to say something, but his throat could only make a low "whirring" sound, he struggled to get up, and suddenly there was a sharp pain under his shoulder blade, and there was only boundless darkness in front of him.

A girl, with long jet-black hair and a white dress, stood fresh and pleasant under the willows on the embankment.

Xiao Lin? Is it Xiao Lin? How did she end up here? Didn't she run away with that big money?

"I'm sorry, I can't continue with you, you can't afford to give me the happiness I want."

This voice, that's right, it's Xiao Lin, what is she talking about?

"For what? Isn't it money? Isn't there happiness if you have less money? ”

It seemed to be a man's voice, low and a little rough, very similar to his own.

"It's not a matter of a little bit of money, no money, how about you are a big boss, look at your current appearance, you are a stupid soldier, do you understand taste? Do you know the difference between Champagne and Champagne? Do you know the classification of diamonds? Do you know what investment and speculation are all about? All day long, I know that I watch the kind of antique movies of the last century that old men don't watch, what "Dong Cunrui", what "Heroes' Children", what "Shangganling", there is no sense of reality at all, you are not a man you can rely on at all! ”

Xiao Lin is talking about herself? "Shangganling"? I like to watch "Shangganling" so it's unreliable?

"Xiao Lin, listen to me-"

"Needless to say, do you see that Rolls-Royce, it's waiting for me. I wish you would come to me in a car like this one day, but you can't, you never will—"

Xiao Lin, you're arguing with a man, who is it? Who is arguing with Xiao Lin?

"Zhu Tao, let's go, I don't think we need to meet again-"

Zhu Tao! Zhu Tao? Who is Zhu Tao? Is Zhu Tao himself?

"Zhu Tao, don't die, wake up-"

Who's calling themselves? Is it a girl's voice, girl, or Xiao Lin?

"I'm Rong'er, you open your eyes and see, you promised me to take me for a ride-"

Rong'er-It's Rong'er-

There is a feeling in the hand, soft, slippery, is it a girl's hand, is she holding Rong'er's hand?

A voice squeezed out of his throat with difficulty: "Rong'er—"

"He's awake, he's awake—"

"It's still useful for women at times like this."

"This kid has peach blossom luck wherever he goes, and he is really angry with us Wang Lao Wu."

Is it the teammates who are talking? The darkness gradually dissipated, Rong'er, Rong'er was in front of her, looking at herself with tears in her eyes, really, so cute-

The training ground of the 1st Company of the Royal Guards, the sun is rising in the sky, and the spring breeze is light.

"Xiao Lieri!"

"Here!"

"Who told you you could punch at gun practice time!"

"Report to the official, they have to let me play a few tricks!"

"Are you a monkey? If people want you to play tricks, you can play them, and do you still take me as a chief in your eyes! ”

"Report to the official, don't dare next time."

Xiao Lieri put away the momentum, grabbed the strangely shaped rifle and ran back to the shooting range to continue practicing aiming, and peeked at Ding Jieyun, a guard commander in a yellow coat came behind the company commander, knowing that this person was not small, and quickly lay down to do serious training.

"Company Commander Ding, these people you have received are not bad."

"Captain Liu, I was selected according to your requirements, however, there is a special case, there is a blacksmith named Xiao Lieri, although he can't write his name completely, but his kung fu is very powerful, and his learning ability is also very strong, after a few days, he has been able to skillfully operate an assault rifle, and he hit 82 rings in the first live shot——"

Liu Yun nodded approvingly and said: "You can flexibly grasp the selection criteria, which shows that you have a good brain, call that Xiao Lieri over and see where his kung fu is great." ”

Ding Jieyun turned around and shouted: "Xiao Lieri in the second row and third class, out of the ranks!" ”

Xiao Lieri understood what he heard, stepped in front of Ding Jieyun in a few steps, and stood up and saluted: "Xiao Lieri of the second platoon and the third class, please instruct the chief." ”

Liu Yun looked up and down and said, "Yes, the body looks quite tough, but I don't know what will happen if Lu Dao really fights." ”

Xiao Lieri straightened his waist and said, "Report to the chief, if you really fight, I'll top ten of you." ”

Liu Yun smiled slightly, and turned to Ding Jieyun: "Find ten strong young men, go up together, and see what the scene is." ”

In a moment, the ten young men of the Praetorian Guard Company surrounded Xiao Lieri, and they all set up a posture, ready to rush up and put him down first.

"Let's go!" Ding Jieyun gave an order, and everyone started almost at the same time, aiming at Xiao Lieri and rushing straight away.

I heard Xiao Lieri shouting, flying up and kicking down a person, and then dancing his arms and knocking the two unconscious, the circle array was torn open a crack, Xiao Lieri jumped out and rushed to the other end of the training ground.

The officers and soldiers watching the battle next to him booed, and Ding Jieyun also smiled: "It turns out that you can only deal with two or three, and you are really ashamed to blow through the cowhide." ”

Liu Yun smiled and said, "Let's take a look." ”

The remaining seven people on the field chased Xiao Lieri together, because each of them ran at different speeds, so they opened up the distance, and the formation changed from round to long, becoming a long dragon.

Seeing that Xiao Lieri had run close to the courtyard wall, he suddenly stepped on the ground and turned around, first kicked the one chasing in front of him, quickly opened the bow left and right, knocked down the next two, and then took the initiative to move forward, a beautiful roundabout kick, put down the strongest one, and the last three of them saw that the situation was not good, and fled in all directions.

Xiao Lieri didn't pursue either, walked to Liu Yun and knelt down and said, "Xiao is ugly, please give more advice." ”

Liu Yun said to Ding Jieyun: "Be brave and strategic, can collect and release, don't be temporary, we need such a person, promote him to be the squad leader." ”

Xiao Lieri hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him: "Thank you, sir, for your appreciation!" ”

Liu Yun said again: "You continue to practice, I have something to say to your company commander." He called Ding Jieyun to a corner of the training ground and instructed softly: "Last night, the Queen Mother's dormitory was attacked, and we killed two people and seriously injured one. I think this must have something to do with some senior member of the imperial court, so our current situation is very dangerous, and we may be attacked at any time, rather than sit back and wait, it is better to strike first, and I plan to launch a coup d'état in the next few days to take control of the central power. This Praetorian Guard Company will be the main force of the coup, you have to hurry up the training, the form of everything is exempted, teach them the most practical combat techniques, attack and defense, kill and protect yourself, and obey orders, and the rest will be talked about later, understand? ”

Ding Jieyun gave a military salute: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”

After sending Liu Yun away, Ding Jieyun called Xiao Lieri: "You don't have to learn to write these days, I'll talk about it later, now appoint you as the leader of the second platoon and the third squad, and the original squad leader will be your deputy, handle the relationship with him, do you know what to do?" ”

Xiao Lieri wanted to kneel down again to thank him, but Ding Jieyun supported him and said, "In the future, I will use my hands to salute, don't kneel at every turn, this is the rule of our Praetorian Guard Company." ”

Xiao Lieri hurriedly raised his hand and saluted: "Yes, sir!" ”

Zhongnanhai, on the Yingtai, Guangxu and Emperor Weng Tonghe, Concubine Zhen's brother-in-law, Guangxu's brother-in-law, Lang Zhirui, was listening to Wen Yi talk about the country's political system.

"——Democrats, the people are the mainstay, but the emperor can represent the people and carry out great politics; The people elected the National Assembly, which is responsible for legislation; In addition, an independent judicial system has been established, which has become a trend of separation of powers among the executive, legislature and judiciary. In this way, we can create a clean and shrewd government, collect the hearts of all the people, gather the strength of all the people, revitalize the industry, agriculture and commerce, establish a loyal and patriotic army, resist foreign cultural attacks and plunder, and open up the territory in the mountains and rivers. ”

Guangxu bowed his head in agreement, but Zhirui said: "What Mr. said, the emperor is under the control of all the people, and he can't be governed by all the people?" ”

Wen Yi replied: "There is a saying since ancient times, the king is light and the people are important, and the water can carry the boat or overturn the boat. The world should be based on all the people, and there is no royal family for all private enterprises? However, the emperor administers on behalf of the people, not under the people, and in ancient times, Yao, Shun, and Yu were all administered on behalf of the people, how could anyone ever say that such holy monarchs were under the people? Moreover, the emperor does what the people want, and the people should support and respect the emperor, and the enterprise has a rule of control? Now that the party is in power, the two families of Hunan and Huai dominate the north and south, which is really the domination of the emperor. ”

Zhirui said softly: "It makes sense, but-"

Weng Tonghe opened his mouth: "Zhi Shilang, Mr. Wen thinks about the emperor, and he makes such a high statement, and every sentence is reasonable, so don't pick on the thorns." ”

Guangxu said: "What Dr. Wen said is very true, but now that the United States is under control everywhere, no matter how good the political system is, it cannot live up to reality, which is equivalent to empty talk. ”

"Otherwise, the minister has a plan-" Wen Yi looked left and right, and then looked at Guangxu, Guangxu understood, and ordered the palace maids next to him to retreat, and there were only four people left in the house.

"The coup d'état, with the elite soldiers trained by Liu Commander, wiped out the Hou Party in one fell swoop, controlled the Military Aircraft Department and the Prime Minister's Yamen, and then transferred the military defense army to guard the capital to prevent the Huai army from causing trouble. After that, the troops were reorganized, and Liu was ordered to train the new army, and as soon as the troops were sufficient, the Huai army was disbanded and reorganized into a new army. Later, the same method was used to deal with the Hunan army, so that the princes were all destroyed, the emperor was in power, and the emperor was reformed and changed, and the emperor was allowed to act, and no one dared to stop him. ”

Guangxu and the others groaned for a long time when they heard this, and Weng Tonghe responded softly: "Is Commander Liu really sure?" He only has more than 100 people in his hands, no matter which cabinet member in the military aircraft department, there are hundreds of soldiers in the family, and the military aircraft department has the right to transfer troops, not counting the thousands of soldiers under the jurisdiction of the commander of the nine gates, there are ten battalions of horse infantry artillery in the northern battalion of the Beijing Division, and there are as many as 5,000 people, and they can enter the capital in less than two hours——"

Wen Yi smiled and turned to Guangxu: "Do you remember, the emperor remembers that day, Liu led more than a dozen people under his command and killed more than 1,000 White Lotus rebels, and now there are more than 100 elites, why not resist tens of thousands of rebels?" ”

Guangxu looked at Weng Tonghe and then at Zhirui, and saw that there was no doubt about the two of them, so he made up his mind: "Instead of being controlled by others, it is better to seize power in a battle, summon Commander Liu, and discuss with him carefully." ”
