Chapter 210: Shocking Change! Completely torn! Emperor Lightning Strike!

In this battle, of the 27 large warships of the foreigners, 7 were sunk, 16 were damaged, and two steam warships were captured.

In terms of personnel, the coalition soldiers suffered more than 1,700 casualties.

In this battle in history, the foreigners were sunk four, six were seriously wounded, two were captured, and the allied soldiers suffered 500 casualties.

On the side of the Qing army, there were only a few dozen casualties in this battle in history, but Shi Rongchun, the commander of Zhili, and Long Ruyuan, the deputy general of the Dagu Association, were killed.

And in this world, because the number of foreigners is several times more than in history, especially at the last moment, the foreigner marines still rushed onto land, causing huge casualties, reaching more than 2,000 people.

Almost all of the more than 2,000 men were Rong Lu's Tianjin New Army, which seems to account for only one-third of the total. But this part of the people is at the forefront, almost the most elite part.

The first batch of Tianjin New Army was almost all completed.

But no matter what, the Qing court won a great victory.

Or even a glorious victory.

Although it was not as smooth as it was on the historical plane, they didn't know that in everyone's opinion, this was the biggest victory of the Qing court in foreign wars in decades.

Monk Greenqin also reached the peak of his reputation because he was the coach of this big battle.

At this time, the entire Dagukou camp was celebrating this big victory.

Although Su Yu's official position is only a Jiangxi group practice, he is also on the main table.

Rong Lu, Yi Xuan, Monk Grinqin, and Boyan Nemohu are all at this table.

The senior generals toasted Su Yu one after another.

Of course, this posture is very clear, and it is going to get Su Yu drunk.

Because the emperor's will has not yet come, but everyone knows that the emperor definitely wants to bring Su Yu into Beijing.

Therefore, Hengfu, the governor of Zhili, took the lead in pouring wine into Su Yao, and several people tacitly agreed that Su Yu must be left behind and wait for the emperor's will.

Su Yu did not refuse to come at all, he did not drink down, but drank a bunch of people down.

After drinking, I went straight to the beach to release water.

Rong Lu and Bo Yan Nemohu accompanied Su Yu to the beach to release water.

At this time, I saw four gunboats parked on the sea, as well as dozens of various warships.

And the five hundred elites brought by Su Yao have already lined up neatly on the beach.

Rong Lu was stunned and said, "This, what does this mean?" ”

Su Yu said: "The war situation in the south is dangerous, 100,000 troops are attacking Changzhou, the military situation is like fire, I need to go south immediately." ”

Boyan said: "However, the emperor's will has not yet come." ”

At this time, Seng Lingqin and Hengfu, the governor of Zhili, also chased out.

His Chinese army also rushed out directly.

"Lord Su Yu, are you in such a hurry to leave?" Zhili Governor Hengfu Road.

Monk Lingqin said: "Su Yu, wait for the emperor's will to come before leaving, otherwise it will be difficult for me to explain to the emperor and the court." ”

"Soon, in a few hours at most, the emperor's will will arrive."

Su Yu said: "Monk King, you don't know the battle situation in the south. The danger is like fire, on the battlefield of Changzhou, the main forces of both of us are there, more than 150,000 troops, and nearly 200,000 battlefields in Anqing. ”

"These two battles are related to the safety of the entire country, and I must immediately go south to support."

"Monk King, my lords, there will be a period later!"

Monk Greenqin said: "Su Yu, if the emperor's will is not satisfied, you have to leave?" When this reaches the ears of some people, they will say that you despise the court. ”

Then, a look at him. Behind him, thousands of troops slowly approached.

Su Yu said in a cold voice: "Monk King, are you trying to forcibly detain me?" ”

Monk Lingqin said: "Su Yu, do you want to resist the decree?" ”

Su Yu said: "Resist?!" ”

Su Yu roared angrily: "The imperial court dismissed me from the post of governor of Jiangxi, and I am just a group training. The southern battlefield is in danger, can I not come? ”

"If I don't come, will the world accuse me?"

"But I still don't care about the safety of the southern battlefield, the emperor's will, I didn't have any delay, and directly led the army north to support."

"I have recovered Yantai, recovered Dalian, and in the final decisive battle, my army has been in the most dangerous position."

"At the most critical moment, I shelled the flagship of the foreigners, and I wounded the commander of the foreign army. Only then did the foreigners really withdraw from the army, and we won the war. ”

"Now, the Changzhou battlefield is waiting for me to rescue, and the southern battlefield is in danger, so you don't even allow me to go?"

"What? Are you going to forcibly detain me by force? ”

"I went north to support, and the support went wrong?"

"Is my Su Yu a rebel in the eyes of the court? Don't even have the freedom to come and go? ”

"You say I'm resistant? What about the emperor's will? What about the will of the imperial court? Where is it? ”

Su Yu's voice resounded throughout Dagukou.

Then, he looked at the thousands of people in the Tianjin New Army, looked at the thousands of people in Zhili, and roared angrily: "Just now they were fighting side by side, don't you want to fire at me now?" ”

Tian Yugong, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, led 8,000 men and stopped quietly on the sea.

Su Yu patted his chest and said, "If you want to fire at your comrades, hit here, hit here!" ”

The Tianjin New Army and the troops of Zhili present all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at each other.

Su Yu gave an order: "Board the ship!" ”

With his order, five hundred elite soldiers began to board the ship quickly.

Monk Lingqin was really anxious at this time.

Why hasn't the emperor's decree come yet? Still not coming?

With the holy decree, he will be able to detain Su Lu.

But from the capital to Dagukou, a full six or seven hundred miles, even if you fly, it is not so fast.

Even if it was so fast, the envoy wouldn't be able to catch up.

He really had the intention to directly order the army to surround Su Yu's army and forcibly detain it.

But...... No one dared to do that.

Until now, the imperial court has fallen out openly with no Su Yu.

The imperial court ordered Su Yu to go to Shanghai to negotiate, and he went to negotiate.

Let him stop negotiating, leave Shanghai, and he will leave Shanghai.

At such an urgent moment of 100,000, the imperial court ordered him to go north to support, and he led nearly 10,000 troops to the north to support.

What else? Isn't this a loyal servant?

At this time, you let the Tianjin New Army and the army of Zhili use force against Su Yu?

These people can't get past the psychological hurdle.

However, if Su Yu is let go, then the emperor and the court will definitely blame Monk Lingqin.

"Lord Su Yu, this battle has been won, you have made such a great achievement, the emperor will definitely reward you, you just leave, the emperor will not spare me and wait." Monk Greenqin shouted: "Come on, leave Lord Su Yu behind." ”

Monk Lingqin decided to smile and leave Su Yu behind in a playful way.

"Su Yu, the military situation in the south is like fire, your army will let them go back, you stay by yourself, and leave after the emperor's will to reward you arrives."

With that, Monk Greenqin waved his hand violently.

Boyan Nemohu, Rong Lu, and dozens of personal soldiers around them were going to come over directly and forcibly hold Su Yu in the way of staying guests.

He must not be allowed to leave!

You must take the opportunity to bring him back to the capital and hand him over to the emperor.

lest the tiger return to the mountain.

Boyan and the others had a smile on their faces, but their eyes were full of coldness, and dozens of people pounced on them.

And at this very time!

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out!

I don't know who fired the gun, but it must have been fired from the direction of the Qing army.

Everyone was horrified.

Su Yu looked down, and a blood stain on his chest suddenly appeared.

Someone assassinated Su Yu?!

Suddenly, Su Yao's hundreds of new soldiers were in tears.

All of them picked up their guns and aimed them in the direction of Seng Lingqin.

Tian Yugong, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, was indignant and directly ordered to turn the muzzle.

Terrible infighting, on the verge of breaking out.

Monk Greenqin was stunned, Boyan was also stunned, and Rong Lu was even more distraught.

Because this time is the closest moment to death.

At this time, if they were not careful, they would be beaten into a sieve by Su Yu's army.

Su Yu looked at Monk Lingqin and said hoarsely: "Monk King, why do you treat me like this?" ”

"In your eyes, am I really a rebellious minister and a thief?"

Suddenly, Su Yu's new army shouted: "Fight with them!" ”

The regimental coalition army behind the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang shouted: "Fight with them!" ”

Both sides, there is really going to war.

Su Yu used his last strength and said: "Go, go, go......"

"Don't fire, don't fire, don't fire......"

Dozens of soldiers rushed up, snatched Su Lu away, and carried him onto the warship.

At this time, no one dared to stop it.

Once blocked, tens of thousands of people on both sides will directly start a war.

Once a war starts, the consequences are unimaginable.

In this way, Monk Lingqin watched Su Lu and his party leave.

"Caught, caught the murderer!"

Monk Greenqin was shocked, there was really a murderer?

After a little interrogation, the murderer was still the son of Dexing'a, the blue flag, and he was drunk at this time, and his eyes were red.

He had already launched an assassination attempt against Su Yu's family.

And this time, he took the opportunity to blend into the army and assassinated Su Yu again.

"I went to steal the best foreign gun and found the best position, I want to kill Su Yu and avenge my father."

In an instant, Monk Lingqin, Rong Lu, and Zhili Governor Hengfu were all silent.

This...... Is this a real assassination?

No, it's not Su Yu directing and acting?

…………………………

Self-directed and self-acted, of course.

It's just that he has been deployed for a long time in advance, and even the hatred line of the son of Dexing'a has been raised for more than a year, and even a few people around him are all "enemies" of Su Yu in a sense, and everyone empathizes.

Half a year in advance, a year in the layout, who can bear it? So everything looks real.

Boyan said: "Father, this ...... Is this self-directed and self-acting? ”

Rong Lu said: "The son of Dexing'a, you recruited him into the new army as an officer, and he was recruited eight months ago. ”

"Half a year ago, who knew that this war would break out? Who knew if this battle would be won? Who knew Su Yu would appear here? ”

"How can you direct and act yourself in such a situation?"

Boyan was excited again, and said with a slight trepidation: "Is Su Yu dead?" ”

Rong Lu said: "The distance is too far, more than sixty zhang." It may or may not die! ”

Monk Lingqin said: "Immediately, immediately report to Beijing!" ”

This matter will definitely cause an uproar.

……………………

Aboard!

The military doctor took out the warhead from Su Yu's body.

Everyone saw it.

If you want to act, you have to be extremely real.

There was nothing wrong with the state-of-the-art rifle that the son of Dexinga had stolen, but there was a problem with the bullets, and it could not be checked.

Even when he fired, there were more than five Su Yao's undercover agents around him staring at him.

The bullet was successful, but once it came out of the chamber, the bullet would shatter in the air.

Tian Yugong, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, roared angrily: "The imperial court must give an explanation!" ”

"It's a great shame for the imperial court to treat heroes like this!"

The whole army is furious!

……………………

Righteousness is the hardest.

Especially for those who want to seek power and usurp the throne, they must always stand at the highest moral level.

In this battle, Yangyi attacked.

The emperor decreed that Su Yu would go north to support.

Otherwise, in the eyes of all the people in the world, you will not have enough love and loyalty to the country.

So Su Yu came, even if the southern battlefield was urgent, he traveled thousands of miles north to support, and made great achievements.

This is because Su Yu knows that this battle will be won.

And what about the next battle?

After the defeat, Britain and France will next gather tens of thousands of troops and enter the capital.

Su Yu had to sit back and watch the world turn upside down, so that at the last moment, he could turn the tide.

For a long time in the next battle, Su Yu could not send troops to support.

And at that time, sending troops to support was to send them to death. Twenty or thirty thousand Anglo-French troops, who can fight?

During this time, Su Yu still had to grasp the moral high ground.

This shot can solve eighty percent of political problems.

The point is, 99% of this assassination was real.

Even, the other party has already assassinated Su Yao's family.

What's even more excessive is that the imperial court has already arrested them, and then acquitted them.

So next!

Terrible public opinion will detonate again.

………………………………

Changzhou battlefield!

Shi Dakai is really going out of style.

After a frenzied fierce battle for several days and nights.

On the battlefield of Changzhou, Chen Yucheng fought against Xu Youren and Zuo Zongtang alone, and the fight was tied.

Li Xiucheng was on the battlefield of Wuxi City, even if there was a Su Trolling fleet to support him on the canal, Zhang Guoliang was still not an opponent, and Li Xiucheng gradually gained the upper hand.

Only on the Danyang battlefield, Shi Dakai gradually fell into disadvantage.

His army of 30,000 suffered more and more casualties.

And Su Yu's new army became more and more fierce the more he fought.

Although no one said it, Shi Dakai seemed to feel that there were countless people laughing at him behind him.

Three commanders, he is the oldest, has the highest status, has the most troops, but fights the worst.

In this battle, Shi Dakai can't lose no matter what, the more ugly it is, the more anxious he is, and the more desperately he stacks up.

The Taiping army was already very brave, but in the face of such casualties, it was still full of resentment.

With nothing to do, Shi Dakai asked Tianjing for help again and again.

At this time, Hong Xiuquan of Tianjing was also completely anxious.

Because the battlefield in Changzhou was extremely anxious, nearly 100,000 troops were involved there.

Anqing in the west came to report that tens of thousands of troops of Zeng Guofan attacked Anqing.

Suddenly, the entire Tianjing situation became precarious.

Lin Shaozhang took the opportunity to attack Hong Renji and said: "Ganwang, when you decided to launch the Eastern Crusade, did you think of today? ”

Hong Renji said: "At that time, Su Yu's main force was in Zhoushan, who would miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" As long as Suzhou is captured, troops can be sent to Zhejiang, and the whole game of chess in the Kingdom of Heaven will be alive. ”

Lin Shaozhang said: "After the Su Lu army returned quickly, there was a chance to stop fighting, why did you insist on fighting?" ”

Hong Renji said: "He sent troops to take Changzhou, Wuxi, and Danyang, and fought without declaring war, didn't he fight yet?" ”

Lin Shaozhang said: "It was we who broke the contract first. ”

Hong Renji said: "Are you speaking for Su Yu?" ”

Lin Shaozhang said: "Ganwang, why did you insist on the Eastern Expedition at that time, why did you believe that Su Yao would fight the foreigners in Zhoushan?" ”

Hong Renji suddenly fell silent.

Lin Shaozhang said angrily: "Because you were bewitched by foreigners!" ”

"You believe what foreigners say. As a result, the foreigners did not fight with Su Yu at all, you are taking a chestnut for the foreigners, you have been in Hong Kong for a long time in Hong Kong, what did the foreigners promise you? ”

As soon as these words came out, Hong Xiuquan's face changed.

He didn't care about the previous words, but this sentence stabbed Hong Xiuquan's back scales.

Hong Renda said: "Heavenly King, the foreigners were supposed to support you before. But he wanted to treat us like pigs and dogs, so the king refused. Foreigners feel that you are stubborn and can't master it. So I probably want to change someone who can master it. ”

Hong Renfa said: "Hong Renji, when did the foreigners promise to help you take the position?" When are you going to launch the next Tianjing Incident, I hope that your subordinates will be merciful and kill a few of us, but don't do anything to the Heavenly King. ”

Hong Renda said: "At that time, the so-called heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals of the foreigners will be killed directly along the Yangtze River to Tianjing, and our life and death will all be in the hands of King Gan." ”

Hong Renfa said: "Heavenly King, now the Anqing War, the Changzhou War, the hundreds of thousands of troops of my Heavenly Kingdom are outside, Tianjing is empty, it is very appropriate to launch a mutiny at this time." ”

These words made the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan's face change and his eyes were frightened.

Hong Renji trembled with anger and said, "You spew blood, you spew blood." ”

Although the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan was afraid in his heart, he still had some trust in Hong Renji.

A loud roar said: "Okay, don't say it anymore, the enemy is now, don't fight among yourself." ”

"I ordered Shi Dakai, Chen Yucheng, and Li Xiucheng to quickly win the battle of Changzhou, and then immediately lead the army north to support Anqing."

At this time, Shi Dakai sent a messenger to arrive.

There is only one thing, help!

And as soon as he opened his mouth, it was 20,000 people.

Hong Xiuquan trembled in his heart, 20,000 people?

Are you kidding? How many defenders are left in Tianjing now? You have to go directly with 20,000 people, and Tianjing will be empty.

Hong Xiuquan's biggest characteristic is that he is afraid of death, and he was very dissatisfied with Shi Dakai, he was able to endure his emotions before, but at this time, he was a little anxious.

"Don't guard Tianjing?"

"No 20,000 people, no!"

"Before the war began, didn't I keep saying that my Heavenly Army was two or three times larger than the Qing Demon? The only thing that could be fought on the battlefield in Changzhou was Su Yu's army, only more than 4,000 people? ”

"It's just that you are blowing the sky, and I promised you to launch the battle of Changzhou, why is it like this now?"

The godlord Hong Renji knelt down and said: "Heavenly King, on the battlefield of Changzhou, the reason why the Wing King is the most passive is because he is facing the main force of Su Yu. Now the whole battlefield is in balance, and once we are defeated in Danyang, it will trigger a series of reactions, which will lead to the defeat of Changzhou and the defeat of Wuxi. So at this critical moment, I want to help the Wing King hold up the Changzhou battlefield. ”

"I know that the current situation is like fire and water, and on the Anqing side, the Hunan army is aggressive. But in Anqing, we have been operating for many years, and there are many fortifications and army deployments, and it is impossible for Zeng Guofan to break through it for a year and a half. ”

"Now the Hunan army, the Su Yu army, the army of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, are all involved, the only threat to Tianjing is the only one in Yangzhou's Tuo Ming'a, after Shengbao left Yangzhou a few months ago, the Jiangbei camp has no threat to us at all."

"It's okay if we don't beat him, where does he dare to beat us?"

"Tianjing is at ease, Anqing is also very stable, only the Changzhou battlefield is in danger, please send reinforcements from the King of Heaven." Hong Renji kowtowed and said, "On the side of the Wing King, you must hold on, otherwise it will collapse!" ”

Hong Xiuquan said: "As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for 20,000 people, where could I squeeze out so many troops?" ”

Hong Renji said: "There are no 20,000, 10,000 is fine." ”

Hong Xiuquan gritted his teeth and said: "I don't have 10,000, give him 7,000!" ”

In the end, Hong Xiuquan endured reluctance and sent 7,000 reinforcements to support Shi Dakai's Danyang battlefield.

After the Tianwang Mansion dispersed, on the streets of Tianjing, Hong Renji said to Lin Qirong: "King Qin, have you been watching coldly like this?" ”

Lin Qirong said: "I wanted to stop your crusade that day, but I couldn't stop it, what can I do?" ”

Then, Lin Qirong said: "I want to ask the Ganwang, not to mention that the battle of Changzhou may be defeated, even if it is won, what if it is won?" Changzhou, Danyang and Wuxi were originally ours. If we hadn't broken the covenant, they wouldn't have come to take the three cities. Even if the battle is won now, how many people will die if these three cities are recaptured? Do you still have the strength to fight Suzhou next? ”

"Why is it so futile, and why is it that the soldiers are lost?"

Hong Renji said with an embarrassed face: "King Qin, you are an afterthought, who is willing to let go of that once-in-a-lifetime fighter at that time?" ”

Lin Qirong said: "No, on the contrary, experienced people at that time could see at a glance that it was impossible for foreigners and Su to fight in Zhoushan. Su Yu, Wang Youling and others deployed 30,000 or 40,000 troops in Zhoushan just to stop the war. How many troops are the foreigners in total this time? Their main goal was to defeat the Qing court and force the Dog Emperor to recognize the Treaty of Tianjin. Count Ergin is crazy to fight with Su Yu in this Zhoushan, and there is no benefit at all. ”

Then, Lin Qirong sneered: "The foreigners came to talk to you and said that they would fight Su Yu in Zhoushan, and you believed it." Why do foreigners believe you when they say it? Are the words of a foreigner a holy decree to you? ”

As soon as these words came out, Hong Renji's face changed slightly.

Because Lin Qirong's words are indeed very heartbreaking, and they directly hit him deep in his heart.

But no matter what, the situation has developed to this point, and there is no way back.

On Tianjing's side, with Hong Xiuquan's order, 7,000 reinforcements rushed to the Danyang battlefield to support Shi Dakai at the fastest speed.

However, Wang Youling, the governor of Zhejiang, after determining that the foreigners and the imperial court were inseparable, did not even wait for the end of the battle of Dagukou, he immediately led more than 10,000 people to leave Zhoushan, along the Qiantang River, north into the Jiangnan Canal, and killed on the battlefield of Changzhou.

It's so refreshing to have strong allies.

They don't need your orders at all, look for fighters, take the initiative.

As long as they build a framework, they can do the best they can.

…………………………

Capital!

During this time, not only the emperor, but also the entire court was completely restless.

After making the decision to go to war, the government and the opposition were really uplifted and reaped the righteousness.

But after that, it's completely uneasy.

I'm afraid of losing!

Last year's battle of Dagukou was also fought very well at the beginning, but then it suddenly collapsed.

What if we repeat the mistakes of the past this time?

Immediately afterwards, there was no great victory from Dagukou, but a great victory from Su Yu.

Su Yao recovered Yantai and Dalian.

In the court, of course, the emperor has to say that it is good, no matter what, it is also a war feat.

But in private, the emperor ridiculed that Su Yu would only be opportunistic, taking advantage of the emptiness of Yantai and Dalian to steal the two cities.

Have the guts, you led the army to Dagukou to fight the main force of the foreigners?

The imperial court also let loose on the people, saying that Su Yu's recovery of Yantai and Dalian was speculation and a performance for the people of the world to see.

As a result, when the monk Lingqin came to the news again, saying that Su Yu really led the army to Dagukou.

Moreover, those who followed the messenger of Monk Lingqin into Beijing also had news from the people.

The people knew the news almost at the same time as the imperial court, and they knew that Monk Lingqin was six hundred miles away.

At that moment, the emperor, Du Han and the others were a little confused.

Su Yu, you, do you really dare to come?

While admiring in his heart, the emperor was ecstatic.

Su Yu, you're here this time, so don't think about leaving.

I went to give you an order, it was just a political attack, but I didn't expect you to come.

Then Hugh will blame me.

Therefore, the emperor immediately sent an envoy to Seng Lingqin, regardless of the cost, to leave Su Liu.

He must not be allowed to leave.

So for the whole day, the emperor couldn't give up, waiting for the news from Dagukou.

If God favors him, he will be double happy.

Sure enough, it didn't take long.

"Eight hundred miles expedited, eight hundred miles expedited!"

"The emperor is overjoyed, and Dagukou is victorious!"

A team of messengers, running wildly, chanting all the way.

Suddenly, the entire capital was boiling.

Really won?!

It was really a shame that Su Yu and the imperial court fought for righteousness, so the imperial court paved the way for public opinion before the war.

Only by repeatedly explaining to the people of the capital the significance of this battle will there be a basis for public opinion.

As soon as the good news entered Beijing, many elite families spontaneously set off firecrackers.

"It's really not easy, I have finally won this battle in the past few decades!"

"I'll just say it, at the critical moment, we still have to go out of the eight flags."

"The monk is mighty, and the Rong is mighty!"

"My Eight Banners have won glory for the Qing Dynasty and my ancestors."

……………………

In the court.

The Emperor was far away when he heard the messenger's shout.

Dagukou is a big victory!

Suddenly, his whole body was excited, and even a sickly red appeared on his face.

The whole person stood up suddenly.

The messenger rushed in, slipped to his knees from a long distance, and shouted loudly: "The emperor is overjoyed, and Dagukou is victorious!" ”

Then, hand it over.

The eunuch Wang Chenggui took the report, inspected it, and then handed it to the emperor.

When the emperor opened it, his whole body trembled, as if he was drunk.

Heaven bless, ancestors bless.

It really won, and it was a real big win.

It really sank several warships of foreigners, seriously injured more than a dozen, and killed and wounded 16,700 foreigners.

Unprecedented victories in decades. Such a brilliant victory, the emperor did not dare to imagine in advance.

His whole body seemed to be floating in the clouds.

After the victory, another voice sounded in his head.

Su Yu, you shout the righteousness of the world every day, shout every day to resist the foreigners, oppose the Tianjin Treaty, and keep saying that the imperial court has lost power and humiliated the country.

And now?

I won the battle.

You're just going to talk and have white teeth, and I've really won.

Your previous political attacks on the imperial court by the seven southern provinces have all been wiped out.

I slapped this back.

Isn't the righteousness of your seven southern provinces to oppose the Treaty of Tianjin, oppose the Treaty of Aihui, and protect the waterway of the Yangtze River? Do you want to protect the people of the South from the scourge of foreign missionaries?

Isn't it just that the imperial court is unable to protect you, so you have to set up another seven-province alliance to protect yourself?

Now, the court has won.

What kind of southern province covenant are you, and I have broken it down.

The extremely excited emperor was eager to immediately issue an order to dissolve the alliance of the seven southern provinces.

However, he soon discovers that there is another secret fold.

Rong Lu, the governor of Zhili, Hengfu, and the secret fold of the monk Greenqin.

Su Yao was brave on the battlefield of Dagukou and was in the most critical position.

In particular, Su Yu, under the countless artillery fire of the foreigners, hit the flagship of the foreigners, wounded the supreme commander of the foreigners' coalition army, and made the foreigners retreat.

All three secret messages have the same content.

Of course, it's not the three of them who are high-spirited and bright, and they want to take credit for Su Yao.

On the real merit excerpt, they can't write a word about these things. But it is necessary to tell the truth to the emperor, so as not to be passive in the court.

The key is that Su Yu also has his own mouthpiece of public opinion.

There are more than 100,000 people in the capital who are tied to Su Yu's interests, and at critical moments, they will speak for Su Yu.

After seeing these three secret recitals, the emperor's face suddenly changed.

What's going on? How so?

In this big victory, Su Yu turned out to be the first achievement?

Originally, Su Yao reported the recovery of Yantai and Dalian, and the imperial court could also accuse him of being opportunistic. But now bombarding the flagship of the foreigners and knocking down the commanders of the foreigners is the first achievement for the Qing court.

According to instinctive thinking, the coach fell, so he retired.

Of course, in fact, this battle was not the first achievement. But under his performance, in the eyes of all the people in the world, that is the first gong.

At present, all the people of the world do not understand the new type of warfare at all, and they still have in their minds the first rank of the enemy's general among the millions of troops.

Capture the thief and destroy the enemy commander, isn't this the first achievement?

Next, the emperor forced a smile and accepted the congratulations of the civil and military officials.

All the officials of the imperial court came out one after another.

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!"

"Such a great victory, we should celebrate with the sky."

"Such a great victory, the emperor should sacrifice to the sky!"

"Your Majesty, I am in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, right in front of me."

In the face of the praise of the ministers, the emperor was of course still fluttering and felt extremely comfortable.

Immediately after the court meeting, the emperor left a few important ministers and held a small meeting.

……………………………………

Inside the Sanxi Hall.

The emperor handed the secret music of Monk Lingqin and the others to Su Shun and the others.

After Su Shun, Du Han, Duanhua, Mianyu, Zaiyuan and others saw it, they all changed color.

This...... Is this Su Yu so awesome?

These people don't understand military affairs, and after seeing the secret music, they instinctively feel that Su Yu's contribution to the war must be very high.

The emperor said, "What should I do?" ”

Winning the battle is a great thing, but the hellish Su Yu has made a great contribution, and that is a bad thing.

I originally wanted to continue this big victory and dismantle the alliance of the seven southern provinces.

The righteousness is in hand, and I have to obey.

As a result, this big victory actually had Su Yao's share.

Su Yu, the leader of the alliance, and Tian Yugong, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, all led their troops to help.

The seven southern provinces also have great righteousness.

Du Han said: "Your Majesty, this is not a conflict. ”

"Winning this battle means that the imperial court has the ability to protect the people of the south, and the so-called seven southern provinces are not necessary to protect themselves."

"As for Su Yao's great achievements, let's suppress it first and don't let his credit explode."

"It's to bury his credit."

Kuang Yuan said: "There are many mouthpieces in the capital, and if you want to bury his credit, I'm afraid it's difficult." ”

Du Han said: "At least in the imperial court, he has no mouthpiece. ”

Kuang Yuan said: "Yes, he has a cannon in the court, and anyone dares to spray it." ”

Du Han said: "No matter what, if you press him first, you can't hold it back, so you will promote him." ”

"Su Yu, you are so capable of fighting, the court canonized you as a squire of the military department, it is enough weight, enough for your merits."

"Su Yu, whether you can take it or not, that's your business. But the imperial court now has enough righteousness to disintegrate the alliance of the seven provinces, and the imperial court also has enough righteousness to crack down on the foreigner industry. ”

"And the foreigner industry is in Jiujiang!"

"And the most important thing is that Seng Lingqin will not let go of this opportunity, and he will definitely leave Su Tuo behind."

"Su Yu only brought 500 people, and Monk Lingqin had tens of thousands of people, so he could be surrounded, and no matter what means were used, he would be forcibly left."

"As long as Su Yu enters Beijing, then the south will not be able to set off the wind and waves, and at that time, we will canonize him as the squire of the military department and put him in the cabinet."

"After the facts disintegrate the alliance of the seven southern provinces and clear the Jiujiang industry, Su Yu can be slowly plotted."

Everyone nodded, and the chess eyes were on Su Yu.

As long as he is detained, everything will be easy, and the court will make you a high-ranking official, and it will not treat you badly.

Several important ministers and the emperor immediately found the best solution in their discussions.

forced Su Lu to stay in Beijing, and the high-ranking official Houlu put him under house arrest, and promoted Shen Baozhen to the imperial court.

Continuing the previous plan, he sent Qi Ling to take charge of the governor of Jiangxi, and led the army south to dismantle the Jiujiang industry.

But only a few hours later!

Another 800-mile rush was dense, and the emperor was directly stunned.

Su Yu ran away!

The most important thing is that the imperial court captured two foreigner warships, and Su Yu took advantage of the chaos and snatched one.

And that's not all.

There is also earth-shattering news.

Su Yu was assassinated!

After seeing it, the emperor roared angrily: "There is a conspiracy, Su Yu's bitter plan, there is a conspiracy in this!" ”

But...... Next, the information is getting more and more complete.

Even the confession is complete.

All the evidence suggests that this is not Su Yao's bitter meat trick.

The murderers have been caught, Su Yu's enemy, the son of the former capital Dexing'a.

Moreover, this person had already planned a murder of Su Yu's entire family.

The emperor had a faint sense that a violent political storm would ensue.

"Send an edict, send someone to keep an eye on Chong'en, put him under house arrest, don't let him go to court tomorrow!"

The emperor reacted quickly.

Suddenly, several guards immediately led dozens of soldiers to Chong'en's house and put him under house arrest.

They kept an eye on him all the time, even when they went to the toilet, and they didn't allow him to step out of the door.

Because this is Su Yu's only mouthpiece above the court.

………………………………

However, the next day, the court!

Shi Chongen, the right capital of the Imperial Palace, still appeared in the court.

The most important thing is that Chongen is hiding among the hundred officials, and he is in a group of three or four officials.

There were too many officials, and the emperor did not find out about him.

Is it a waste for the emperor to send these dozens of people? Can't even look at an old man?

In fact, these dozens of people did their best.

From last night until the early hours of the morning, they did not relax, staring closely at Chong'en, following wherever they went, without leaving a single step.

However, at three o'clock in the morning, more than a dozen black shadows appeared, using the latest chemical drugs in the Jiujiang Chemical Laboratory, directly fascinating them.

The key emperor was to issue a secret decree to put Chong'en under house arrest, and did not tell the palace guards to not allow Chong'en to enter.

Even if it is decreed that Chong'en is not allowed to enter, there are many ways to enter the palace, you must know that there were once merchants who swaggered into the palace and walked around several times.

"The emperor has a decree, and there is a book!" The eunuch Wang Chenggui shouted.

The emperor yawned, and today's court meeting was to dismantle the alliance of the seven southern provinces according to the plan.

"The minister has the book!" Chong'en shouted loudly and came out of the ranks.

Suddenly, the emperor was frightened.

What's going on? Didn't I secretly send someone to put him under house arrest?

Hurry, hurry up and drag him away and let him shut up.

Chongen shouted: "Your Majesty, in the battle of Dagukou, Su Lu defeated the foreigner commander He Bo and made a great contribution. ”

"Instead of rewarding him, the court shot him?"

"What does that mean?"

"The emperor wants to kill the hero, and he will summon him to Beijing with twelve gold medals, why do you want to murder him by such a subordinate method?!"

"As soon as you have made a great achievement, you have to kill it!"

"How to block the mouth of the world?"

Wang Chenggui's speed was already fast, and with a wave of his hand, several guards immediately pounced.

"Gagged him, gaged him." But Wang Chenggui instinctively screamed.

So, is this still worth it?

Everyone has already finished speaking, and if you gag it again, it can only prove that they are right.

The court's civil and military officials, all of them looked sideways.

Because, except for the emperor and a very small number of important ministers, almost everyone did not know about it.

This...... This is also too sensational.

Is the imperial court so extreme?

We knew we wanted to get rid of Su Yu and be quick, but ...... But there's no need to rush it, huh?

The south of the country was a pot of porridge, but as soon as the emperor decreed, Su Yu immediately led tens of thousands of troops to support the northern battlefield and recovered Yantai and Dalian.

Everyone knows this, and they never thought of it.

On the battlefield of Dagukou, Su Yu actually made such a great achievement?

Destroy the enemy's flagship and destroy the foreigner commander He Bo.

Isn't that the first work?

Why don't we even know about such a big thing? I entered the palace yesterday, why didn't you say it at the time?

Someone recalled that after the emperor saw the good news, he watched the secret music again, and his face changed.

At that time, everyone thought that it was because they felt that the casualties were too big and so on, but they didn't expect the emperor to see the secret music and learn that Su Yu had made a great contribution.

It all makes sense.

Is the court so dark? With such a big credit, you plan to cover it up directly?

After that, he forcibly detained Su Yu and murdered him?

This...... This......

It's horrifying.

Back then, Zhao Gou and Qin Hui didn't dare to go so far?

Originally, everyone didn't believe it, but the emperor's reaction, and Wang Chenggui asked him to seal Chongen's mouth.

Since he is not allowed to speak, then ...... I'm afraid it's true.

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Wu Ren, turned pale, and went out directly, trembling all over: "Your Majesty, is this matter true?" ”

The emperor said angrily: "Wu Ren, are you dizzy? ”

Wu Ren said: "No matter what Chongen says, he is also an elder of the royal family, and the right capital of the Imperial Palace, so he covers his mouth like this, what kind of system does it become?" Am I towards hundreds of years? Is there an example of this? ”

The emperor said angrily: "He talks nonsense and slanders the monarch's father, do you want to listen to him bark at the court?" ”

Du Han complained in his heart, Your Majesty, you shouldn't speak.

These words, should we say, what are you so anxious to do?

Aren't you talking now, getting darker and darker?

Send a eunuch to cover the minister's mouth, and if this spreads, I am afraid that it will become a laughing stock in the world.

Stupid Wang Chenggui.

But whether it was Su Shun or Du Han, they didn't dare to reprimand angrily, or even blame with their eyes.

He is the emperor's confidant and eunuch, and he is the most narrow-minded, and he must not be offended.

At this time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all stared at Chong'en, and their expressions were extremely strange.

Even at this time, the civil and military officials empathized with Chong'en.

When was the eunuch of the Qing Dynasty so arrogant that he dared to cover the minister's mouth?

The emperor gritted his teeth and waved his hand, and several guards hurriedly let go of Chong'en.

Mianyu hurriedly said sharply: "Chong'en, don't talk nonsense, what murder Su Yu?" Nothing? ”

Chong'en said: "Prince Hui? Someone else doesn't know? Don't you know? ”

"Do you dare to swear by the Qing Dynasty, and dare to swear by the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty?"

"The war situation in the south is like fire, and more than 100,000 troops are attacking Changzhou, and after winning the battle of Dagukou, Su Yu will lead the army south to support the Changzhou battlefield, what is wrong with him doing this?"

"He's so anxious, isn't it for the sake of his ancestors?"

"Monk Lingqin, why did you forcibly detain him? Or even send troops to surround Su Yu's army? ”

"They couldn't force Su to stay, so they even sent people to murder."

"The murderer is the son of Dexing'a, doesn't the emperor plan to give an explanation to the world?"

Mianyu said angrily: "This happened only the evening before yesterday, how do you know?" Even who the murderer is, are you colluding with Su Yu? Self-directed and self-acting this bitter ploy? ”

Idiot!

Su Shun couldn't help but faint.

When Prince Hui said that this happened the night before yesterday, didn't you admit it himself?

But Chong'en was square, but he didn't find this flaw, but shouted: "It's really ridiculous, thousands of troops in Dagukou can see it clearly, and even when the son of Dexing A shoots, many people see it." ”

"If the court wants to hide it, it will not only cover my mouth, but also cover the mouths of tens of thousands of people!"

That's the worst thing.

Chongen continued to roar: "Last year, the son of Weng Tongshu and the son of Dexing'a hired horse thieves to attack Su Yao's family. Obviously, the trial has been settled, but the two people are still not arrested, and they are allowed to go unpunished. ”

"A few months ago, Boyan Nemohu even brought the son of Dexing'a into the New Army and made him the leader of the Tianjin New Army!"

"This time he murdered Su Yu, will the court let him go unpunished again?"

"Your Majesty, what did Su Yu commit? So you're going to put him to death? ”

"What is the face of such a person who is so intolerant?"

"The hero who has just made a great contribution, the emperor can't wait to kill him, isn't he afraid that the ancestors will be angry and send down the curse?"

Hearing this, the emperor's blood rushed to his brain.

was so angry that he almost lost his mind, and the words in his heart rushed out of his mouth.

"Su Yu is a rebel, a traitor, and a dead ......"

As soon as the emperor said the first word, he felt that something was wrong and tried his best to hold it back.

And Su Shun hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, please punish Chong'en!" ”

Du Han, Duanhua, and Zaiyuan also hurriedly shouted loudly.

Just to prevent the emperor from saying these words.

And the emperor also took the initiative to stop at the last moment.

But...... It's still too late.

In fact, the imperial court has never publicly denied Su Yu.

On the emperor's side, he has never torn his face in front of hundreds of officials.

Without him, no matter what Su Yu does, he has great righteousness.

On the side of the imperial court, they all openly want to praise him, even if he is removed from the post of governor of Jiangxi and he is overstepping the system of taking concubines, he is only slightly criticized, and most of them are still praised, and they are not directly dismissed, but let him be transferred to Beijing to serve as another second-class official.

Su Yu is even more so, except for resignation, every will of the imperial court is obediently obeyed.

The emperor said countless times in his heart that he was a traitor and a rebel, but in public, he also wanted to recognize Su Yu's merits.

Today, in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, they were sprayed wildly by Chong'en, directly broke the defense, rebelled against the thief and rebelled against the ministers, and finally blurted out.

Torn the skin.

Su Shun, Duanhua, Zaiyuan, Mianyu and others were cold.

As soon as the emperor's words came out, it could no longer be reversed.

The audience, deathly silent.

Countless people have mixed feelings, although the word behind the emperor is not spoken, everyone can guess that what he wants to say is that he is innocent of death.

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at the emperor, for fear of revealing their inner emotions.

Chongen said slowly: "What the emperor wants to say is that there is more than innocent death, right?" ”

The audience was still silent.

Chongen continued: "Whether Su Yu is innocent or not, I don't know. But I, Chongen, is really innocent, and the emperor will put his ministers to death. ”

He was not impassioned, but seemed very calm.

To be honest, Chongen also wondered at first that this was Su Yao's bitter ploy.

But looking at the emperor's reaction now, it is clear that he wants to get rid of Su Yu as soon as possible.

The murderer is the son of Dexing'a, and he has a long criminal record.

The emperor said coldly: "Chong'en, you have repeatedly insulted your father, don't I dare to kill you?" ”

Chong'en said: "Why don't you dare? Meritorious general, you let me kill in front of thousands of people, not to mention me, an incompetent old man? ”

The emperor was so dizzy with anger that he was about to order Chong'en to be beheaded.

Duanhua stepped out of the ranks and shouted loudly: "Be bold and worshipful, barking like a dog in the court, you are in vain as an elder of the clan." Come on, take it for me! ”

As a sect order, he must be exported.

Otherwise, when the emperor said that Chong'en would be beheaded, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

Several guards stepped forward and grabbed Chong'en.

Chong'en restrained his hands and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I am waiting for your holy decree, I am waiting for you to kill me!" ”

Then, a few guards took Chongen away like this.

The civil and military officials in the audience were still as silent as death, but their eyes were full of panic, and there was Xiao Suo.
