While Chen Hao was busy inspecting his base, Xuanyuan Jian was also visiting his machine bureau. Xuanyuan Jian made thorough preparations before establishing the base area, and after he made up his mind to get his hands on the machines of the Jilin Machinery Bureau, he had already arranged for his subordinates to collect all kinds of raw materials, and he could provide him with steel after building a steel mill, and his arsenal was put into production as soon as it was built.

Xuanyuan Jian looked at the gunsmith workshop and the bullet production workshop, with technicians and machines, the machine bureau can produce a part of the guns and bullets every day, but unfortunately the output is not high. When Yang Du divided the machinery in the Jilin Machinery Bureau, he moved all the advanced machines to Yingkou, and what was left for Xuanyuan Jian was some old machines, and no matter how sufficient the materials were, there was no way to increase the output.

When he came to the artillery production workshop, the empty factory made Xuanyuan Jian feel bad, Chen Baxian was not ordinarily ruthless, and none of the advanced machines for manufacturing artillery were left for him. Seeing the change in Xuanyuan Jian's expression, Zhuge Kuntian smiled and said: "Boss Long doesn't need to be depressed, Chen Baxian is indeed one step ahead of us in the matter of the Machine Bureau, as long as we let him lose his official position, won't his machines after occupying Yingkou also be ours?" ”

Xuanyuan Jian suddenly thought of a question, and he said with a solemn face: "Zhuge , Chen Baxian can always seize the opportunity no matter what he does, and the same is true of the Machine Bureau. He didn't do anything after we dealt with Yingkou, do you think he would go ahead again and catch us off guard? ”

Zhuge Kuntian muttered: "This time we used more than 20 drawings to establish a base area, as long as Chen Baxian can't exterminate them, it will be a dereliction of duty, there should be no way to deal with it!" Didn't you say that before, Boss Dragon? Even if we calculate his failure, we will only lose more than 20 headquarters drawings, so there is no need to worry about it at all! ”

Xuanyuan Jian pointed to his feet and said, "I'm worried about Benxi, we attack Chen Baxian's Yingkou, will he fight Benxi with a tooth for a tooth?" ”

Zhuge Kuntian smiled, and he said confidently: "Boss Long, you have a lot of heart!" Benxi is not in the range of Yingkou, and it is far away from Yingkou, so it is impossible for Chen Ba to deal with our Benxi base first! Besides, even if he transfers the NPC army at Yingkou to participate in the war, with our recent development rate, when he starts to send troops, 10,000 people will come to attack us, and we will be able to resist it. ”

Zhuge Kuntian's explanation Xuanyuan Jian was not satisfied, but made his expression more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Chen Ba doesn't necessarily have to attack Benxi in person if he wants to deal with Benxi first, just like we deal with Yingkou, and we also borrow the power of the imperial court to make him lose his official position." If Chen Ba first tried to take revenge on us, it would be easier for him to use his position in the imperial court to borrow power than us, and I was worried that Benxi would have something to lose. ”

Zhuge Kuntian fell into deep thought after listening to Xuanyuan Jian's words, and his face suddenly changed drastically: "Oh no! This time, we have established a base area too publicly, and we have always thought that as long as there is Zengqi to protect it, there will be no problem, but Chen Baxian also has the right to play. If he directly gave a break to the court, saying that we gathered people to rebel, I was afraid that Benxi would really have problems. ”

Xuanyuan Jian thought for a while and said: "It's just a guess for the time being, Chen Ba's impeachment of us will inevitably involve Zengqi, Zengqi is also a member of the imperial court, and it is not easy for him to succeed in impeachment." ”

When Xuanyuan Jian and Zhuge Kuntian reacted, Chen Hao's folds had already reached the hands of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and at the same time, the folds of Shoushan, Jinchang and Fengxiang were handed over. After Li Lianying recited the four letters, the Empress Dowager Cixi, who had just settled down in Chang'an for a short time, said coldly: "I came to Chang'an with the emperor, and Zengqi was afraid that he thought that the Tiangao Emperor couldn't control him anymore, and he was so bold." ”

Li Lianying felt the coldness in the Empress Dowager Cixi's words, and hurriedly said: "Lafayette, although Zeng Qi is said to be the general of Shengjing, the military power of Shengjing is actually in the hands of Chen Baxian and Jin Chang. ”

Empress Dowager Cixi said lightly: "Zengqi doesn't have the courage to rebel, but he has the guts to be greedy. I think he's getting more and more confused, he can take some money, but some money is terrible. That Inhuman Xuanyuan Sword is ambitious, and Zeng Qi is so indulgent that he is afraid that one day he will become a confidant. ”

Li Lianying received a lot of benefits from Zengqi, and knew that Zengqi was going to be unlucky, so he tried to help Zengqi fool around. So he said: "Lafayette is wise, Zengqi has indeed neglected to overlook, why don't you admonish him and order him to immediately exterminate the rebel Xuanyuan Sword, how about making up for the crime?" ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi glanced at the four folds on the table, and said lightly: "If you continue to let Zengqi stay in Shengjing, I'm afraid that Jin Chang and the others will not be willing to do things hard." Little plum is going to do it! Zengqi neglected his duties and was transferred back to the capital to take up his post, and Jinchang temporarily took the post of general Shengjing. Yingkou Zhili Hall knew that Chen Baxian was diligent and duty-bound, and the rampant bandits had nothing to do with him, so he tried his best to exterminate them. The Xuanyuan Sword gathered a crowd to rebel against the Nine Clans, and the Shengjing General Jin Chang exterminated it within three months, and all those who did things for the Xuanyuan Sword were all beheaded. ”

Li Lianying saw that the Empress Dowager Cixi had already made a decision and didn't dare to say any more, so she had to draft a decree according to Cixi's request and sent a eunuch to Shengjing to deliver the decree. Because Chang'an was too far away from the northeast, the holy decree could not reach Shengjing in a short period of time, and Li Lianying quietly flew a pigeon to inform Zengqi.

Zeng Qi got the news from Li Lianying, and at the same time hated Chen Hao and the others, he was so angry that he overturned the table. Just when he was furious, the porter reported that the alien Xuanyuan Sword asked to see him, and Zengqi was removed from the position of General Sheng Jing because of Xuanyuan Sword, and he was angry and said loudly: "Let him get out of me immediately, if it weren't for him, how could I be removed?" ”

After Xuanyuan Jian and Zhuge Kuntian discussed, they always felt that Benxi might be risky, so they were ready to discuss with Zengqi, so that Zengqi could prepare in advance and save time from being caught off guard. After waiting outside the General's Mansion for a long time, the porter arrogantly told him to get out of here, which made his heart sink uncontrollably.

Xuanyuan Jian took out ten oceans and handed them to the porter and said, "Brother Liu, dare to ask why the general is angry?" What were his exact words? ”

After the porter accepted the ocean, he said indignantly: "My lord said that if it weren't for you, how could he be dismissed, let you go back to Benxi immediately." ”

Xuanyuan Jian knew that his hunch was correct, Chen Baxian really counterattacked, and the counterattack was still so fierce. In order to become famous in one fell swoop, he has been preparing for a long time for the base area established in Benxi, if Zengqi is removed because of the Benxi base area, the newly appointed General Sheng Jing will definitely not tolerate Benxi.

Xuanyuan Jian didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, if Zengqi was transferred, his high-profile base in Benxi would definitely not escape. Although he can gather a powerful force, he will openly oppose the entire Great Qing Kingdom in the early stage of the game, not to mention that he is alone, even if he contacts several other great families, he can't do it.

Xuanyuan Jian was very sober-minded, and he always felt that establishing a base in the northeast was not a long-term solution, because it was difficult to occupy a province in the northeast. In addition to Benxi, he is also preparing to establish a base in Xiangxi. In Benxi's base, he will build an industrial base and produce a large amount of ammunition for his players, allowing them to expand in Xiangxi and eventually control a province in the west.

He didn't expect that after successfully completing Zengqi's work, he and Zhuge Kuntian both felt that Benxi's base was foolproof, and they could rest assured that they could boldly calculate others. He already looked up to Chen Baxian, but he didn't expect Chen Baxian's counterattack to be so sharp, and he directly impeached Shengjing's general Zengqi, thus making him lose his backer, and Benxi's base area was facing a great crisis.

Xuanyuan Jian's mind was racing, and he quickly had an idea, so he took out twenty oceans and said: "I'm bothering Brother Liu to inform me again, just say that I have a way to solve the general's troubles, and I hope to see the general." ”

General Shengjing Zengqi is angry, and if he goes to report it again, he may be scolded bloody, and he is not willing to give up if he sees the ocean of twenty white flowers. After his face changed a few times, he finally stretched out his hand and took the twenty oceans into his arms and said, "Wait here!" I'll go in and tell you. ”

Zeng Qi had slowly calmed down, and he began to think about how to deal with it, even if he was no longer the general of Shengjing, he would take revenge on Chen Baxian before the holy decree arrived. After the porter came in again to report that Xuanyuan Sword claimed to have a way, Zeng Qi instructed the porter to introduce Xuanyuan Sword into the room.

Zeng Qi sat on the Taishi chair and said coldly: "Inhuman Xuanyuan Sword, soon the old man will not be General Shengjing, there is no need for you to please me again." The Queen Mother not only issued an order to remove my General Shengjing from his position, but also ordered the new Shengjing General Jin Chang to exterminate the Benxi bandits within three months, you better go back and think about how to keep your foundation! ”

Xuanyuan Jian stood up and said, "Regardless of whether the adult is still the general of Shengjing, the kindness of the adult will be unforgettable for a lifetime, and he will obey the dispatch of the adult at any time." The subordinates heard that the adults would be transferred back to the capital, and they were really worried about the adults! This time, the Eight-Nation Coalition threatened Lafayette and killed a lot of people, and Lafayette was angry, and at this time, I was afraid that I would let the adults return to Beijing......"

Zengqi said suspiciously: "You mean that Lafayette will kill me?" Probably not! I have someone next to Lafayette, and he only said that Lafayette transferred me back to the capital to take up a post, and did not mention that Lafayette would settle accounts. ””

Xuanyuan Jian shook his head and said: "The people around Lafayette have friendships with adults, and Lafayette's heart is like a mirror, and her old man's city will not be easily revealed." The reason for transferring the adults back to Beijing to take up their posts is that they are worried that something will happen to the adults with heavy troops, and they are afraid that after the adults go back, they will send sheep into the tiger's mouth. ”

Zengqi's face turned pale, he has always been timid and afraid of death, so he has the idea of negotiating peace with the Russians. Xuanyuan Jian's words frightened him, and he humbly asked, "You say you have a way to solve my troubles?" ”
