XXXVIII. King Qin of the Southern Army

"It was the queen who asked her subordinates," Wu Yundi saw that there was no one left and right, so he whispered. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"The queen is going to let these people go?" Monk Lingqin's right hand, which was originally twisted in his beard, paused.

"The queen mother doesn't mean this, the queen mother let the mark come down to tell the monk king, the ministers of Britain and France and other countries are the dignity of this country, although it is caught now, it is better to be tolerant, so as not to look bad in the future." Wu Yundi said.

"Won't look good in the future? Hmph, it's not good-looking now! Monk Lingqin slapped the table angrily, "Take the Pasha ceremony, it is difficult to ride a tiger, you can't let it go, you can't kill it, and I don't know if you can stop the British and French forces!" I don't know who came up with the idea. ”

"I thought I could, but the queen said that I couldn't, when I left Beijing, my mother asked me to tell me, saying that diplomatic envoys should not be insulted, Britain and France will inevitably use this matter as an excuse to raise troops again, and when the time comes, if Gyeonggi is lost, it will be the responsibility of this matter!"

Monk Lingqin was frightened and frightened, almost stood up, and forced himself to sit on the Taishi's chair, "What does the mother's words mean that the old man will become a scapegoat?" ”

"Yes, if there is disharmony in the war in the future, and the foreigners are unwilling to give up, they can only throw out a person of sufficient weight to atone for their crimes, when the time comes, who will be the center? Who will Tongzhou be? Wu Yundi was in front of the repeater, and he looked at Seng Lingqin's more and more solemn expression with a disapproving expression, and he seemed to understand something, "So now that I have arrested Pa Xiali and other people, in terms of personality, it is better to be kinder, leave a line in everything, and see each other in the future." ”

"There is still some truth in this," Monk Lingqin nodded, "According to what I mean, it will be cut with a knife, and it will also let me out the evil anger of Dagukou, and it will be okay, and I will get it back from the battlefield in the future." ”

"That's exactly what it means, the military and the government are not the same, and Pashali is just a villain who is quick to speak. If it weren't for the strong British and French armies, the first one to mark this person's head," Wu Yundi said, finishing his business. Wu Yundi was a little embarrassed, "The mark is scheduled to be married on September 20, and I don't know if the monk can give this face to the mark and drink a glass of water and wine." ”

Monk Lingqin smiled, "You kid. He stood up and patted Wu Yundi on the shoulder, "When you went south for the first time, you were still a hairy boy who didn't know anything, and now you have reached the age of getting married, hey, time flies really fast, and in a blink of an eye, the old man will be old." Don't worry, when the time comes, this king will come. But if the war is entangled here, I'm afraid it won't be empty. The old man's gift will come. ”

"Thank you, Dashuai," Wu Yundi shouted, didn't speak for a while, and after a while, he hesitated and asked, "Dashuai, do you think Tongzhou can be defended?" ”

Monk Greenqin's shoulders shook and he stared at Wu Yundi. turned around, no longer looked at him, and looked at the Qin Chaguan on the handsome case, "The old man has been on an errand in the Eight Banners since the time of Daoguang Ye." At that time, there was no attack on the lord, just a big soldier, judging from the few eight banners outside the mouth, the eight banners of Mongolia were still good, and the eight banners of the Manchu and Han dynasties had long been rotten in the roots, although now they took advantage of the southward attack to rebel. I have practiced a lot of soldiers, but it is also customary to use the downwind sword technique, if the enemy is strong, it will not be cheap," Monk Greenqin hunched down on his back, "Tianjin Dagu mouth is like this, seeing that the foreigners' firearms are powerful, the courage is broken, the courage is broken, how can it be defended." Tongzhou, I'm afraid it can't be defended, and even if it does, it can't block the way for foreigners to enter Beijing. ”

"However," Monk Green turned around in the twilight, his eyes blazing, staring at Wu Yundi, "Even if you can't keep it, Lao Tzu has to keep it!" If I can't do anything, I will retreat, the world is so big, where should I retreat! Dagukou and Tianjin have been lost, if Tongzhou is lost again, even if the emperor does not punish him, Lao Tzu will not spare himself! ”

Wuxi.

"Lord Commander, someone came from Beijing, saying that there is something important to tell your lordship!"

"Oh?" Originally, he and Wu Changqing, Zhang Shusheng and others pointed around the sand table and pointed at Li Hongzhang and turned around, looking at the pro-soldiers kneeling on the ground, in the past two or three years, Li Hongzhang's upper lip has a short beard, which looks extremely capable, Li Hongzhang raised his eyebrows, "Do you know who sent it?" ”

"The man who came refused to speak, but searched his body, and there was nothing but a letter and a few pieces of silver."

"It can't be a ghost idea that Suzhou came up with, right?" Zhang Shusheng said that in recent days, the regimental training led by Li Hongzhang has been very urgent to attack Suzhou day and night, and Li Xiucheng in Suzhou has broken through several times, but all of them have returned in vain, so Zhang Shusheng has this question.

"It must be okay, it's just a letter, bring it with you," Li Hongzhang thought slightly, waved his hand and asked his own soldiers to lead people, turned his head and said to Wu Changqing Zhang Shusheng and smiled: "I guess it was a letter brought by my father, the two brothers discussed it first, and I will take a look first." ”

"Your Excellency, please."

Li Hongzhang turned the tent behind him, and saw a young man sitting in it, Li Hongzhang originally thought that he was a lieutenant, but after looking at it, this young man did not have the humility of a eunuch, but seemed to be a young man from a good family. ”

"I don't know where it came from?" Li Hongzhang asked.

"As soon as the adults read this letter, they knew the clues, the little ones who traveled thousands of miles were a little tired, but they wanted to find a place to rest." The young man smiled and handed Li Hongzhang a letter and wanted to leave.

"The official asked the soldiers to take you to wash up," Li Hongzhang nodded, took the letter handed by the young man, and when he saw it, his expression changed, and he stared at the young man and said, "Are you from the palace?" ”

"Exactly, the little one." The young man nodded slightly, turned around and left, Li Hongzhang took a deep breath, opened the letter, saw the content clearly, and gasped, "This, what does this mean!" ”

Zeng Guofan put down the holy decree, frowned, and said to Zeng Guoquan, who was sitting at the bottom, "This will...... It's not easy to do. ”

Zeng Guoquan has a half-inch-long scar on his right cheek, it was when he personally attacked Taiping Pass that he was injured by a stray arrow, bright red and eye-catching, Zeng Guoquan smiled, but it involved the wound again, and grinned, "This will is difficult to do, it depends on what you mean, brother, if you want to be loyal to the lord, you will naturally lead the army to the north, throw away this mess in Jiangnan, and don't care where he Hong Xiuquan goes," Zeng Guofan frowned, "If you want to do this Jiangnan errand well, I'm afraid it's better not to offend foreigners, You must know that Li Hongzhang in Suzhou, as well as Rong Lu's musket team, are all equipped by foreigners, not to mention the cannon that broke through the Taiping Pass a few days ago, Li Xiucheng of Suzhou wanted to attack Shanghai several times, but was defeated by Shanghai's Changsheng army, and part of the military strength was also contained here.
