"The minister was fortunate to be appreciated by the Queen Mother, and was promoted to the same knowledge of the Yingkou Zhili Hall, and the minister never dared to forget the Queen Mother's Longen. After taking office at Yingkou, the ministers worked hard to annihilate the Russians in the absence of guns and ammunition, and the lack of military resources was quite large. Now fortunately, thanks to the queen mother's grace, there is a Jilin Machinery Bureau to allocate military funds to solve the urgent needs of the minister, and the minister does not dare to forget the queen mother's great grace. ”

"The minister heard that the war in northern Hebei was eroding, and the powerful armies were advancing into the capital step by step, thinking of the safety of the queen mother and the emperor, the minister was worried, and he couldn't wait to protect the northern Hebei with wings. After thinking about it again and again, he decided to hand over the 10,000 people under the command of the Jinchang Commander, and the Jinchang Commander commanded the troops to resist the northern invasion of the Russians in Gaiping. The minister was concerned about the safety of the Queen Mother, and decided to take his own soldiers to the capital first to serve the Queen Mother. ”

"The Russians are eyeing the three northeastern provinces of China, and their ambitions are clearly exposed, so the northeast will certainly compete with the Russians for a long time. The minister planned to set up a machine bureau in Yingkou to produce ordnance, and if there was an accident in the east, he would also be able to arm the people with ordnance and fight the Russians to the end. The minister went to northern Hebei first, observed the situation and terrain in northern Hebei, and when the Yingkou Machinery Bureau produced guns and artillery to arm the army, the Yingkou department would immediately wave his army into the king of Guanqin, in order to repay the queen mother's kindness......"

In the Forbidden City, after Li Lianying read Chen Hao's recital on the Jinluan Palace, the Empress Dowager Cixi wiped her eyes and said: "Look at everything, look at everything, what is a loyal minister, now that the war in northern Hebei is eroding, the governors of all provinces are thinking about self-preservation, Chen Baxian took twenty personal soldiers to drill into the fire pit in order to protect my old woman, which Qing family can do him like this?" ”

"Good! The little rabbit cub was brave and strategic, first set up a machine bureau in Yingkou, and then produced ordnance to arm the Liaonan army to ensure that Mukden would not be occupied by the Russians. After inspecting the terrain in northern Hebei first, he waited until his troops defeated the Russians in southern Liaoning, and immediately led his troops into King Qin. I am full of talents in the Qing Dynasty, and there are many first-class and second-grade adults, but only this little rabbit cub makes the mourning family worry-free. ”

"Xiao Lizi, pass on the will of the mourning family, promote Chen Baxian to be the envoy of Zhengsi Pinyun, and continue to hold the position of the same governor of the Yingkou Zhili Hall, so that he can enter Beijing immediately. Speaking of which, the mourning family has heard his name many times recently, and they have never seen this young hero, and this time he came to the capital just to let my old woman take a look. ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi was destined not to see Chen Hao, Chen Hao counted the time very deadly, and it was already August 11 when he wrote this twist and turn it back to Eunuch Zheng. It took a day for the eunuch to rush back to the capital from Yingkou, and it took a day or two for the Empress Dowager Cixi's will to reach Yingkou, and by the time Chen Hao arrived in the capital from Yingkou, Cixi had already run away.

Chen Hao beat his brother's time difference, so that he could play the loyal minister to the end, and he could implement the plan of fishing in troubled waters when the Eight-Nation Alliance entered Beijing. The most important thing is that Chen Hao spent 10,000 oceans to bribe Li Lianying not only to get firearms from the Jilin Machinery Bureau, but also to target the machinery and equipment of the Jilin Machinery Bureau.

Therefore, Chen Hao put forward a plan in the twists and turns, in modern parlance, that is, not to put all the eggs in one basket, implying that Cixi Jilin's Changshun is unreliable, and if Jilin falls, the machine bureau will not be able to keep it. The reason for splitting part of the Jilin Machinery Bureau into Yingkou is to ensure that Fengtian has sufficient ordnance to arm the people and ensure that Fengtian will not fall.

If Mukden does not fall, it will prevent Tsarist Russia from waving its army into the pass, and once Tsarist Russia relaxes its offensive against Mukden, the Yingkou army will be able to enter the pass and enter the Qinwang. All this sounds very good, and no NPC minister can suspect that Chen Hao is selfish, because although the war situation in northern Hebei is eroded, no one believes that the capital will fall in these two days.

In this way, Chen Hao took his soldiers to the capital to fish in the troubled waters, and he became worried about the safety of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and in order to protect the Empress Dowager who admired him, he was crushed. Even if the capital fell when Chen Hao arrived in the capital, the Empress Dowager Cixi ran away and regrettably missed it, but what does it matter? As long as you have the heart to protect the Queen Mother, right?

If necessary, when the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu return to the capital, Chen Hao will also learn from Sansheng Stone to break his arm and leg or something to see the Empress Dowager Cixi. At that time, he cried bitterly and said that he was dedicated to going to the capital to protect the Queen Mother, but the capital fell ahead of schedule, and he was full of ambition and could not be rewarded, so he could only fight bravely in the capital to kill the enemy, and he was lucky enough to leave his crippled body to serve the Queen Mother, and he should be able to get a lot of impression points after performing!

After receiving the latest will of the Empress Dowager Cixi, Chen Hao said to Eunuch Zheng who had arrived at Yingkou for the second time in a few days: "Gonggong Zheng, now that the war in northern Hebei is urgent, I am about to leave for northern Hebei, and I hope that Gonggong Zheng will take my deputy envoy Yang to Jilin." ”

Gonggong Zheng received five hundred oceans from Chen Hao, and the resentment of running around continuously was gone, and he said with a smile: "Although Chen Zhi is relieved, there is the will of the Queen Mother, and those people in the Jilin Machinery Bureau dare not disobey it." Although the Queen Mother re-ordered and agreed to you to split the Machinery Bureau, she did not remove your position as the assistant of the Machinery Bureau, and you can let Deputy Envoy Yang act on behalf of him, and Deputy Envoy Yang has the final say on which people and which machinery should be assigned to Yingkou. ”

Chen Hao said politely: "Thank you father-in-law for mentioning it." ”

Because it involves the splitting of the Jilin Machinery Bureau, this time the Empress Dowager Cixi not only gave Chen Hao an order, but also gave Jilin General Changshun and the Jilin Machinery Bureau. Chen Hao asked Yang Du to accompany Eunuch Zheng to the Jilin Machinery Bureau, mainly because he wanted to rely on Yang Du's eyesight and stunts to bring the useful gun technicians and skilled workers to Yingkou.

There are nearly 1,000 people in the Jilin Machinery Bureau, Yang Du selected the best part, and Chen Hao's establishment of an arsenal in Yingkou is quite a bull's fork. Chen Hao doesn't have much money left now, and he can't afford to hire so many people at all, but with Cixi's will, the Yingkou Machinery Bureau has become an official office, and he doesn't have to pay a penny of salary, and it is because of this that he is willing to invest so much energy in planning.

After Yang Du followed Eunuch Zheng to Jilin, Chen Hao left Yingkou with his individual elite and rode slowly towards northern Hebei. When passing through Shanhaiguan and entering northern Hebei, the time had already reached August 14, and due to the brave resistance of the Chinese players, the Eight-Nation Coalition Army did not launch a general attack on the capital as in history, but just approached the capital.

The invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance is a plot involving a large number of countries, and it is impossible for such a plot mission to change in the early stage, coupled with the system limiting the number of players participating in the mission, no matter how hard Chinese players try, it is impossible to succeed. Chen Hao knew from the beginning that the main plot of the whole world could not be rewritten, so after the main force of the coalition army invaded northern Hebei, he did not do a mission in northern Hebei, but chose to go to the northeast to deal with the Russians.

The Eight-Nation Coalition was huge, but in fact, it was the Russian army in the northeast that really caused great damage to China, and it was precisely because the Russians occupied the three eastern provinces that the northeast was the first to be occupied by the Japanese. Chen Hao has done his best in the Northeast to change the history of the actual occupation of the Northeast by the Russians, and as for the war in the capital, he has no heart.

Chen Hao slowed down his advance again after discovering that the coalition invasion had slowed down due to the player's heroic resistance. If he rushes to the capital to meet the Empress Dowager Cixi now, maybe Cixi will take him with him when she runs away because she admires him. If you lose the opportunity to fish in the troubled waters of the capital, you can't get one million taels of silver, and it will be difficult to make a windfall to develop the base area in the future, and such an opportunity is hard to come by.

French Bishop Fan Guoliang is a soft persimmon, and Chen Hao, who is lurking in the capital, has a great chance to snatch 1 million taels of silver. With the help of Tang Qunying, Du Lisan, and Ouyang Yu, there is no problem in dealing with those soldiers and priests under Fan Guoliang, and Chen Hao knows Fan Guoliang's snatching process because of his future memory, if he can't get 1 million taels of silver, he will be too vegetable.

When Chen Hao formulated this plan, he never thought that he would increase so many masters under his command, and now he has a new goal. If he can loot 1 million taels of silver as planned, he will also find a way to seize some antique cultural relics that were robbed by foreigners, which can not only be sold for money, but also help him increase his cultural attributes.

In the early morning of August 15, the coalition forces came to the outside of Beijing and launched a general attack on Beijing. The Russian army attacked Dongzhimen, the Japanese army attacked Chaoyangmen, and the American army attacked Dongbianmen. The timing of the coalition's general attack deviated from Chen Hao's memory, and he believed that this was because his big victory in the northeast had stimulated the player, and if the plot of the capital changed drastically, it would be detrimental to him to execute the plan.

After taking his subordinates around to the other side and entering the capital, and finding a place to hide, Chen Hao took Ouyang Yu to Dongzhimen and Chaoyangmen to observe the situation. If the attack of the coalition forces is the same as the situation in the forum in his memory, he will be able to make proper arrangements according to his memory in the crisis-ridden capital and complete the plan to snatch the money. If it is different from the situation in memory, then it can only be temporarily arranged by virtue of ability, and whether it can succeed or not is left to fate.

The Russian and Japanese faced each other with a high level of resistance and suffered about 100 casualties each. The city wall of Dongbianmen, which the American army attacked, was low and far away from the firepower of the Qing army. At 11 a.m., the Americans decided to climb the corner of the city wall with ladders, and some men of the Ninth Infantry Regiment climbed the wall with the Star-Spangled Banner, and were the first troops to attack the outer city.

Although the U.S. troops first attacked the outer city of Beijing, they were suppressed by the artillery fire of the Qing soldiers and made it difficult to advance. The British army arrived in Beijing at noon, attacked Guangqumen, and entered the ...... at about 2 p.m. Chen Hao observed for a while, and after finding that the development of the battle situation was completely consistent with his memory, he put his heart in his stomach. Returning to the small courtyard where Du Lisan and the others were hiding, Chen Hao instructed Feng Yong to go out to buy food, and everyone would leave the courtyard after replenishing their satiation, and follow the Catholic Bishop Fan Guoliang after Cixi left the capital.

As soon as Feng Yong opened the door, an NPC dressed in bright red clothes flashed in. Seeing the cold beauty in front of him, Chen Hao waved his hand to stop Tang Qunying and Ouyang Yu, who were drawing their guns and aiming, and said with a slight smile: "Uncle Lin, don't come unharmed." ”
