Chapter 58: Foreign Aid
"Ah...... I'm so sleepy! Standing at the head of Fengtian City, Ma De relieved his waist fiercely, and then stabbed Prince Gong Chang Ning, who was dozing off on the battlements next to him, and shouted: "Lord, it's dawn, it's time for us to change shifts!" ”
"It's dawn? Oh, then go back! Chang Ning rubbed his loose eyes and said.
"Lord Wang, looking at you like this, your spirit is not very good, why don't you rest for a while?" Ma De pretended to be concerned, and secretly decided that if this guy dared to agree, he would hate him for the rest of his life.
"No need, you can go back first!" Chang Ning shook his head, drooped his head and began to inspect the city defense.
Looking at this Prince Gong's spirited appearance, Ma De shook his head, turned around and went down the city wall, and went back to Prince Zheng's mansion.
A few days ago, Sabu Su led the troops to battle, and almost all the soldiers and horses of Manchuria went out with the army, however, the next day, this Prince Gong rushed back with five hundred soldiers and horses, it turned out that Kangxi's holy decree arrived, saying that Changning was not good for war, so as not to affect the battle with his revenge, let him return to Fengtian City!
This can make His Royal Highness the Prince, who is holding back his stomach and wants to take revenge, have no spirit at all! What kind of city do you keep? There is no reason for Geldan to attack Fengtian, not to mention that this side is also vast and sparsely populated, even a piece of deep mountains and old forests can kill his 150,000 iron horsemen, not to mention that there were so many Qing troops before Fengtian. But Kangxi's holy decree could not be violated, so Chang Ning succeeded Ma De as the general of Fengtian, as for Ma De, he and Yu Zhong, who was injured, were Chang Ning's deputy generals. In the entire Fengtian City, at present, plus the five hundred soldiers and horses brought back by Changning, there are a total of two thousand five hundred people, and most of them are old and weak!
……
Back at Prince Zheng's mansion, Ma De ran back to Luo Xin's room and was kicked out, then went back to his room to rest.
He slept soundly!
It wasn't until I felt that my chest was suffocated and it was difficult to breathe that I opened my eyes in a hugging gesture......
And then
"Vomit ......"
Mo Jing and Luo Xin stood behind Yu Zhong, watching Ma De vomit and vomit when he found out that it was Yu Zhong who pinched his nose, and laughed profusely.
"You kid is such a forgetful thing!" Yu Zhong knocked on Ma De and shouted, "Get up!" ”
"I've just been guarding the walls all night, and you're calling me up so early, isn't that too much?" Having said that, seeing Yu Zhong's resolute attitude, and two beauties watching behind him, Ma De couldn't stay in bed, so he had to get up slowly, and followed him to the small garden of the palace, where Old Man Fei and Fei Duoluo were drinking tea.
"Hello everyone!" Seeing everyone coming from afar, Fei Yao Duoluo greeted everyone in stiff Chinese, and the strange tone failed to arouse the slightest interest in a few people...... I've heard of them all.
"Made, you've been busy these days!" After a few people sat down, Old Man Fei asked Ma De.
"Fei Lao, let's be straight, why did you wake me up so early?" Marder asked, yawning, and poured himself another cup of tea.
"Ma De, you have taken turns guarding the city with that Prince Gong in the past few days, how is his mental state?" Mo Jing asked.
"What else? is going to lose his position, of course, it is very aggrieved! It's very sluggish! Ma De yawned again and said: "Originally, this guy was guarding the city during the day, but he came to the third watch in the middle of the night last night, in my opinion, he was worried about his future and couldn't sleep. But then again......" Ma De looked at Fei Yao Duoluo with a smile, and said to Mo Jing: "This old Maozi is in good spirits, and besides, he is not so irritable, Sister Jing, your training level is high!" ”
"Training?" Mo Yan couldn't cry or laugh! Although Fei Odoro was a little "abused" a few days ago, he did not suffer any major crimes. After the old man Fei took him back to the house, he saw that he had been angry, so he just served good food and drink, and did not talk to him, let alone see him, and as a result, Fei Duoluo himself made noise for a while, and then quieted down. At this time, Mo Jing relied on his familiarity, so he went up, talked about it, and understood the matter well.
Fei Yao Doro did not know about the Russian-made firearms in Geldan's hands, and this should not be the meaning of the top brass of Tsarist Russia. Because of the importance of the matter, Fei Yao Doro could not hide it, and finally told the story of Russia's lack of money and the Dutch's guidance, and also revealed some of the items that the Russians most wanted to trade: top silk, top tea, top ceramics, etc., and even excellent works of art, to compete with the large-scale imports of other countries with fine products, to compete with the strategy of quality against quantity, and so on. …… As a result, Mo Jing and Fei Odoro both believed that it was impossible for the Russians to provoke an Eastern empire while fighting in the West, and that it was only a mystery that Geldan could have such a batch of firearms.
It's just that although Fei Yao Doro is anxious, he can't just leave! He had to defend Russia, so as to ensure the progress of Sino-Russian trade, however, this defense was not enough to find Chang, and he had to go to Kangxi, so he sent a few of his subordinates to return to China with the signed "Treaty of Chengde" to report the news, but he stayed.
"Ma De, you kid knows that poor mouth ......" Yu Zhong knocked on Ma De's teacup with a crutch to show his dissatisfaction with Ma De's rhetoric in front of him.
"Alas, Brother Yu, I'm too sorry for you to say that, I'm poor, aren't you more serious than me? As soon as I saw the beauty, I sold myself, and I was embarrassed to say that I was embarrassed? ......" Mader immediately jumped out of his seat after speaking, dodging the crutch sweep in Yuzhong. Yu Zhong is now the son-in-law of the inverted son and daughter of Mo Jing's family, which has become a joke among the five people, although Yu Zhong is a little embarrassed, but he doesn't go to his heart, Ma De is not much better, with Luo Xin's temper, is it possible that he really dares to find a small one?
"Okay, okay, don't make trouble, let's get down to business today!" Old man Fei looked at Ma De and asked, "In the past few days of contact, what do you think of Chang Ning's personality?" ”
"How? It's okay to be so-so! Although he was a little depressed, he didn't lose his temper, and he was still a little educated, which was already rare for a royal family like him! Mader thought for a moment and replied.
"Well, then let's see if this guy can ......"
"Can it be anything?"
"Can you be our backer?" Luo Xin said.
"Backer?" Ma De reached out and touched Luo Xin's forehead, "Xinxin, your head is not hot!" How to ask such a question? This guy is about to fall......"
"But he is still Kangxi's brother after he falls! And it's a brother, a father! …… There has never been any struggle between them! Yu Zhong pointed out the way.
Ma De patted his head again, which was a little confused because he hadn't slept much, and his eyes swept over from Old Man Fei, Yu Zhong, Mo Jing and Luo Xin one by one, seeing the expressions of these four companions, he finally understood what these people wanted to do, "Don't you want to be the enslavement of Prince Gong, who is about to fall?" ”
……
"Die!"
The silence was followed by a storm, and Yu Zhong's crutches, Luo Xin's fist, and Mo Yan's tea lid all smashed into Ma De's body!
"Let you talk nonsense! Are we that cheap? ......" Luo Xin finally grabbed Ma De's ears and gave him the most profound education in the most stern tone, until Ma De admitted his mistake obediently, and was relieved.
"And what do you want?" Holding his savage girlfriend's hand and patting it gently, Mader asked a few more people.
"Charcoal in the snow!" Mo Jing also poured herself a cup of tea.
"Charcoal? How to send? We are not of the same class as this Prince Gong, and besides, he has lost more than 10,000 people, and this prince's seat will definitely not be able to sit down, is it possible that we can still change Kangxi's decision? ”
"We don't care if we change it or not, what we have to do is to pull this brother of Kangxi onto our boat......" Old man Fei smiled sinisterly.
"What do you mean? Now that you've discussed it, don't bully me for not waking up yet, just say it! Mader yawned again.
"We didn't have any big plans to come here, but we always had some goals! However, we can't always do it ourselves, in this case, if something happens, we will only bear it ourselves, just like this time, if it weren't for luck, Mo Jing might be gone! …… Even if you get it right, you will have to attract jealousy, and it will not be as good as ours when the time comes! Therefore, if we want to develop, we have to find a partner, or, a backer! Yu Zhong nodded on the ground and spoke first.
"Well, Brother Yu, you are very organized and have made great progress......" Ma De was noncommittal.
"What Brother Yu said is only the first point, but who can we climb? We don't know anyone, we don't have any power, and third, although Fei Lao has become the Yin of Fengtianfu, he hasn't earned any money yet! So, for now, we're still just a bunch of outsiders! ......," Luo Xin continued.
And at this time, this Prince Gong himself sent it to the door! Although he is very likely to be cut off, after all, he is Kangxi's own brother, if we can take the opportunity to catch his high branches, everything will be fine, right? Mader asked, looking "I know."
"That's right, the children can be taught! …… With such qualifications, I can teach you how to cut watermelon next year! Yu Zhong said with a smile.
"If you come to be that internship watermelon, I'll learn! ......" sneered, and Ma De asked again: "Say, how do you want to send charcoal?" ”
"Of course, you have to get Chang Ning's favor first! Then, help! ......" Mo Jing said.
"I understood the first sentence, but I didn't understand the last sentence!" Mader told the truth.
"Stupid, stupid only knows how to cut four pieces with two cuts!" Yu Zhong commented very professionally, "Help out, you still don't understand?" ”
"No, Mr. Mo family, it's not that I don't understand what it means to help, but I don't know how you plan to help!" Ma De solemnly counterattacked: "Don't forget, that's a prince, if you want to help him, you have to deal with Kangxi, don't you know how powerful Kangxi is after fighting once?" Geldan came fast enough this time, and his momentum was fierce enough, right? Hasn't he been shut down and beaten by this Kangxi Ye? …… It's not that I grow up other people's ambition and destroy my own prestige, I'm just telling the truth, this Kangxi Emperor, he is not an ordinary person! ”
"Hehe, so, we're going to ask for foreign help!" Mo Jingchao was doing nothing next to him, and Fei Yaoduoluo, who was chatting quietly with Old Man Fei, smiled, picked up the teacup and gestured, and got a polite response from this foreign Old Man Fei.
"Foreign aid? ...... "Look at Fei Douluo, Mader is inexplicable!"
