Chapter 809: The Qing Army Without Braids
In order to connect with Prince Rui, the middle and senior generals of the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion collectively went to braids, which were formally closely linked with the imperial court represented by Prince Rui, which also fully demonstrated that the Shaanxi-Gansu-Gansu Green Battalion was the most trustworthy and powerful army in the Qing Dynasty.
New problems soon arise.
If the prince's braids are loyal, then the governor's braids are not?
The same braids, the same broken, which one is more loyal than the other?
Also, the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion collectively pledged allegiance to Prince Rui, is the next step to secretly drive back to Xi'an and capture Leerjin alive?
The answer is here in the new Shaanxi-Gansu Governor Baoning.
"The prince is a great loyalty, and Leer is a false loyalty!"
This sentence answers the first question.
It was unanimously approved.
"The order of Prince Weirui of Shaanxi, Gansu and Green Camp is obeyed, and the others, the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, will not admit it!"
This sentence answers the second question.
The venue resounded with long-lasting applause.
After the applause stopped, to his surprise, Prince Rui said that now was not the time to capture Leerjin alive.
There are two reasons for this.
One is that the imperial court has not yet made a formal will;
Second, for the purpose of curing the disease and saving people, the prince wanted to give Leer a chance to turn back.
The private statement is: "As long as Lao Le doesn't have the heart to grab the dragon head stick with this king, you can still listen to his words, watch his deeds, and give him a chance, after all, people helped us do Fu Liang, and there is no credit and hard work." ”
"The prince told us to be loyal to the court, and we were loyal to the court; The prince told us to be loyal to Leerjin, and we will be loyal to Leerjin! If the prince tells us to collaborate with the enemy, we will collaborate with the enemy, and if the prince tells us to betray the country, we will do it. Well? ”
Cao Dahua had received from Deputy Director Ji in advance about the main content of the meeting and how the prince hoped that the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp would be, so he once again summarized everyone's doubts into a concise sentence.
"That's what it means, whoever is against it, who is in favor!"
Boryeong held his head high and looked around at his subordinates.
There is no objection.
The meeting ended successfully.
In addition to unifying the thinking of the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion, this Dangyang meeting was the two main personnel adjustments.
First, Baoning, the chief soldier of Shaan'an Town, replaced Wang Deyong, who died of illness, as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu;
Second, Cao Dahua, the deputy general of Xinghan Town, replaced Baoning as the commander-in-chief of Shaan'an Town.
In addition, the issue of rotational training of officers in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Gansu Green Battalion, as well as the specific personnel adjustments, needs to be carried out in three steps, and there is no urgency.
After the meeting, Prince Rui arranged for the participating officials to have a meal.
He and Deputy Director Ji went through the minutes of the meeting in detail.
One of the things that went wrong was found.
Is the braid a symbol of the Qing Dynasty, can you say go?
You must know that in order to force the Han people to keep braids, it was slaughtered city by city.
As the old saying goes, "keep your head without hair, and keep your hair without your head", and now the braid left behind everyone's head in the Qing Dynasty is reserved by tens of millions of Han people with blood for our descendants.
It is also a proof of the martial virtues of our ancestors and ancestors in the Qing Dynasty!
It's only been a hundred years, and the national policy won't be talked about?
Don't mention the martial virtues of the ancestors?
A man without a beard is a complete man, is the Qing Dynasty without braids still a Qing Dynasty?
This is another philosophical question that is food for thought.
It involves politics, military, humanities, economy, ethics, family, childbirth, and so on.
Systematic and complex.
If you don't solve this problem, you're going to have a big problem!
Jia Liu also realized this, so he threw the problem to Lao Ji.
The reason is that Lao Ji has read a lot of books, has a lively brain, and has solid theoretical knowledge.
Since the old man went to Yongping to be the prefect, and the dog-headed Fanjun division was in charge of the government, in a way, Deputy Director Ji, who forced Liangshan, took over the role of the two and acted as the only policy adviser around the general Wang.
"Actually, with the status of the prince today, as well as the support and support of the military and the people, it doesn't matter whether you keep braids or not, and whether you talk about national policy or not."
Deputy Director Ji said frankly that the prince has now mastered the Shaanxi-Gansu-Green Battalion, the ace army of the Qing Dynasty, and then there are Huguang, Zhili, Sichuan and other troops, not to mention cutting the braids, even if the birds of the old four devils are cut, no one dares to say a word.
Anyway, the Son of Heaven is the one who is strong and strong.
Traditionally, Deputy Director Ji still wants the prince to take the old-fashioned road of armed seizure of power, instead of the current peaceful road of quietly entering the village and not shooting guns.
Because the former corrects the light, the latter is a bit off the table.
This is the limitation of thought.
As a traditional bureaucrat, Deputy Director Ji more or less does not regard the lives of the people as human lives.
As soon as the musket is fired, the anti-flag is erected, no matter how you control it, if there are not tens of millions of people who die for it, how can it be called an armed seizure of power?
In the current state of reality, most of the country is full of cities, and I am afraid that a nationwide civil war is inevitable.
And on the prince's side, whether it is a beggar on the street or a girl in the alley, they are all his heart and guests.
It's really one less to die and one more to live.
The long-term interests of the country and the vital interests of the people will always be the most important thing for Jia Liu.
This is the pattern, the pattern that determines the status.
"Sure enough, the surrender faction since ancient times is the most terrifying."
As a superior, Jia Liu's eyes are focused on the big game of chess in the country, unlike Lao Ji who always stares at the Forbidden City.
I always think that climbing the dragon chair is a victory, and ignore everything outside the dragon chair, including the lives of the people.
He believes that the national policy still needs to be talked about, but the braid should also be upright and bright.
Because, he planned to take advantage of the unhealthy wind blowing in Baoning to build the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion into the first braidless army in the country.
I still remember that after the Republic of China, Zhang Xun Zhang Braided Shuai took the pigtail soldiers to Beijing to protect the restoration of the little emperor.
Then, there must be a braided army into Beijing to help Prince Rui usurp the throne.
That's history.
Otherwise, it's too boring.
If you want things to be interesting, you have to give them a valid reason to do so.
At the very least, there is something to be done to the imperial court.
"Confess?"
Deputy Director Ji thought to himself, you are embarrassed to say this word.
Confessed?
Who the fuck are you going to give it to?
Give yourself one.
Taken by Wang Ye Huwei, he still racked his brains to find a breakthrough answer from the history of the founding of the Qing Dynasty, as well as the development situation and the current predicament.
Half a sound, a pat on the head: "There is!" ”
Jia Liuda was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Lao Ji what good way he had come up with.
Deputy Director Ji asked: "Lord Wang, did the emperor's fourth devil cut his braids during the state funeral?" ”
"Huh?"
Jia Liu shook the braid in his hand, "There is such a thing, there was a lot of turmoil because of this incident at that time, and in the end, it was this king who turned the tide and led the troops to save the driver, otherwise the Qing Dynasty would not know what it would be." ”
After hearing this, Deputy Director Ji muttered three words in a low voice, raised his head and asked, "Is the old four devils Han?" ”
"Don't ask knowingly."
Jia Liu's hands pulled violently, and the soft braids immediately turned into braids that could strangle people.
It's hard.
"Yes, yes."
Deputy Director Ji hurriedly smiled and said what he meant.
It was the prince who instigated the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners who went south to fight back to Beijing through "The Song of the Death of the Vast Waves of Wuxiang Lake" to fight back to the Beijing Division and crusade against the evil old four devils, so, in order to cooperate with this huge homecoming operation, does it need a force to go north to King Qin.
You can't just watch the Eight Banners return north, right?
"Those who have braids oppose the four devils, and those who don't have braids must support the four devils."
Jia Liumu was suspicious: "What do you mean that the person is me, and the ghost is also me?" ”
"The prince is wise!"
The admiration on Deputy Director Ji's face is not something that ordinary people can express.
Jia Liu fell into deep thought.
Lao Ji's logic is based on the fact that Qianlong was a Han Chinese.
Because Qianlong was a Han Chinese, the officers and soldiers of the Eight Banners wanted to defeat him.
also because Qianlong is a Han Chinese, so the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp wants to support him.
They are interlocking and closely related to each other.
And the button of all this is him, the great general king.
"Go back and convey to Xingyuan, draw another 500 people from various prefectures and counties to enrich the propaganda institutions, and make sure that the fact that the emperor is a Han person goes deep into the fields, and I have to know this matter from the 80-year-old man to the 8-year-old child in the Qing Dynasty."
"The officials are doing things, and the prince can rest assured."
Deputy Director Ji agreed, and then asked another fatal question.
The great general of the Qing Dynasty, Wang, instigated the army to mutiny, and then used this opportunity to transfer the troops directly under him to the north one after another, and concentrated on purging the opposition, including the 20 regiments of the Central Eight Banner Army, so as to complete the last link of the strategic plan to encircle the Beijing division and overthrow the imperial court.
The idea is very good, but does the Xinghan army agree?
If the Xinghan army also took advantage of this opportunity to attack on a large scale, the prince's strategic plan would go bankrupt if it was not done well.
"If you are not careful, the prince may become Cao Mengde on Huarong Road and Napoleon on Waterloo."
After speaking, Deputy Director Ji "poofed": Who is Napoleon? What is Waterloo again? How do I have all this weird stuff in my head?
Damn it!
"You just have to carry out what the king has told you, and you don't need to ask about other things, the king has his own arrangements."
Jia Liu subconsciously looked at his wrist and wanted to know what time it was, but there was no watch on his wrist, so he had to turn around and look at the big Western clock that Lao Fu gave him.
This bell is a testimony of the comradeship and brotherhood between him and the old man.
As a last resort, Jia Liu really didn't want to draw a line with Lao Fu.
However, the world is often out of his control, and according to various news from Beijing, the old rich may really be secretly conspiring to give the six sons and virtuous brothers a surprise attack.
Alas.
Jia Liu deeply realized how uneasy the road to power and profit was.
If you cheat you, you don't have a real person.
The needle watch shows that it is now 11:48.
There are staff outside who come over to invite the prince to eat.
"Got it."
After a morning meeting, Jia Liu was also a little hungry, so he went to eat after a little tidying up, walked to the door and thought about it, but stopped and said to Lao Ji who was following behind: "It doesn't hurt if you know something, Mrs. Wang has already taken my son to Wuchang three days ago." ”
Hearing this, Deputy Director Ji was taken aback: "The prince is really ruthless!" ”
"Ruthless?"
Jia Liu didn't know why, his daughter-in-law took her son to pay a New Year's greeting to her grandfather and uncle, why was she ruthless?
Deputy Director Ji looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Is the prince going to let the princess stay there as a hostage?" ”
