World-class military? Several regimental and battalion-level officers sitting in the big tent looked at Yi Zhicontentment in unison, only to taste the taste of winning the battle, they are now eating the marrow and knowing the taste, and their hearts are hot, the stronger the Yuanqi regiment practice, the more opportunities they have to make contributions, groaning slightly, Chen Hongming said loudly: "The students will definitely not live up to the high expectations of the principal." ”

Yan Yangtian said cautiously: "The principal often says that elite soldiers are fought, and we have too few opportunities to fight. ”

"Intensify training, especially imitation of actual combat confrontation training." Yi Zhizhi said: "In the future, there will be no shortage of opportunities for Yuanqi to practice actual combat." ”

Hearing this, all the officers were overjoyed in their hearts, there were many opportunities for actual combat, and for them, it meant that there were many opportunities to make meritorious contributions, but Yan Yangtian faintly felt that something was not right, where did the Yuanqi regiment practice get so many opportunities for actual combat? Could it be that you will often go out to fight in the future? In front of so many people, he didn't want to ask.

Chen Hongming said: "In the first battle of Dinghai, artillery played a great advantage, can we buy more artillery?" ”

"The land artillery is being developed and formulated, and it is estimated that it will be several months before mass production." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "Your battle summary of the first battle of Dinghai, I read it carefully, the summary is good, but it is not accurate enough, the first battle of Dinghai, the artillery suppressed the fire on the city wall, which is the main reason why we paid weak casualties to climb the city wall."

This involves two aspects, one is the centralized use of artillery, and the other is the coordination of infantry artillery; once the land artillery is finalized and mass-produced, we will set up artillery battalions at the brigade level and artillery companies at the regiment level, so as to give full play to the power of the concentrated use of artillery. ”

Form an artillery battalion artillery company! Everyone listened to it with joy, so wouldn't Yuanqi's group practice be like a tiger with wings? Without waiting for them to finish their happiness, Yi Zhishu continued: "Now that you are all officials, although it is only a fictitious title, but with the accumulation of military merits, it will not be too far to be awarded a real position, in addition to training on weekdays, you should also seize the time to study, not only to be familiar with military books, practice the art of war, but also to be familiar with astronomy and geography, surveying and mapping, a qualified senior general is not easy to do." ”

Granting substantive positions? Going out to be an official? Yan Yangtian's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "Principal, we left the Yuanqi group training, but it's nothing, besides, we can't take those green battalion soldiers with us." ”

Yi Zhizu waved his hand to interrupt his words and said, "If you don't mention these things today, they are all dispersed, and the matter of the prisoners of war should be grasped quickly." ”

The waiting group of officers saluted and withdrew, Yi Zhishu took out a cigar and slowly lit it, Daoguang did not grant him the post of minister of regimental training, which made him feel very unsure, and he just said to the officers that he would grant the actual position, but also let them ponder and ponder by themselves, Yuanqi regimental training has no chance to expand now, so tighten the fence, don't be taken advantage of.

Shuzhu Bridge, the second floor of the worm.

Rewarding the title of the commander, Wu Changqing, who generously rewarded the second floor of the whole insect with the title of the captain, a group of businessmen's children carnivaled to their heart's content, and Wu Changqing naturally became the object of everyone's welcome.

Yi Zhixiang said that it was not, Yuanqi was created by Yi Zhifen, and Yuanqi's group training was also formed by him to form training, send troops to Dinghai, and he personally led the troops to the expedition to get a third-class light car captain, which is reasonable, but Wu Changqing is to help in everything, Dinghai has never been there, but he has a knight lieutenant position, but the eyes of the disciples are red with envy.

Yi Zhizhi rushed to the second floor of the worm, and he heard the noise inside while still outside the door, he looked up at the guise of the restaurant, and said with a smile: "Worm Er, this name is interesting." ”

The guy waiting at the door hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Let the son see the smile, it means that the wind and the moon are boundless, and it is a bit vulgar." As he spoke, he bowed down and said, "Please, please inside the child." ”

Yi Zhizhi was content but didn't move, and said with a smile: "It's already drunk inside?" ”

"As soon as I came, I drank it." The guy said with a smile on his face: "The prince has also been rewarded by the imperial court, the little one congratulates the son, congratulates the son." ”

"You're pretty smart." Yi Zhishu said and touched a piece of the ocean, and said, "Reward you, don't say I've been here." Saying that, he turned around and left, he originally wanted to come to socialize and have a few drinks, but this posture looked like a situation of not getting drunk and not returning, he didn't dare to go in, after all, there were a lot of things at hand.

Back on the boat, with a slight groan, Yi Zhizhi ordered, "Go to the Governor's Palace." ”

Tossing back and forth, it was already dusk when Yi Zhishu arrived at the Governor's Palace, Lin Zexu did not rest after the dispersal, and after the meal, he began to meet the officials who came to meet him, as the Governor of Liangguang, there were almost endless things that the officials said every day, and he was used to it.

Sending off a Taoist, Lin Zexu took a sip of tea, looked through the posts on the table, and was about to give an order, so he hurried to the door and reported: "Master, Yi Zhizhi is content to see outside." ”

"Let him in." Lin Zexu said without thinking, put down the post in his hand as he spoke, and sighed secretly, the court's reward for Yuanqi's group practice is a big deal in Guangzhou City, this half a day, the matter of Yuanqi's group practice reward has already spread, how can he not know the reason, for the court's reward for Yi Zhi's contentment, he is speechless to the extreme, fortunately, he also rewarded a third-class light car captain, otherwise he would be embarrassed to see that kid.

Yi Zhishu was dressed in a long robe, came in steadily, and when he saw Lin Zexu getting up to greet him, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, "The lower official has seen the lord of the ministry." ”

"Congratulations on contentment. In his early twenties, he is already a third-grade member, but he envies the old man. Lin Zexu said with a smile: "It is rare to be the third-class light car captain of Enshang, which shows that the saint attaches great importance to contentment." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to give up his seat and said, "Don't be formal, sit down." ”

Yi Zhishu wanted to ask how the imperial court rewarded Lin Zexu, but it was difficult to speak, so he immediately arched his hand and said: "Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace." ”

Hearing this, Lin Zexu couldn't help but smile, what thunder and rain dew, it seems that this kid is very concerned about not getting the minister of group training, of course he knows that the minister of group training is directly related to the survival of Yuanqi group training, and he also knows that this kid dares to be so unashamed in front of him because he supports Yuanqi group training.

"It seems that contentment is a knot." Lin Zexu said and sat down casually, and after the other party sat down, he said slowly: "Regarding the situation between the DPRK and China, can you hear about it?" ”

Yi Zhishu said tentatively: "Adults are referring to the dispute between the Manchus and Hans? ”

Lin Zexu bowed slightly, stroked the long beard under his chin, and said unhurriedly: "Since the ban on smoking in the court, the dispute between the Manchu and Han Dynasty in the DPRK has begun to emerge, last year, Mu Xiang used the Xuan Weiping case in Xiangyang, Hubei Province to suppress the Han people, the two sides have become fire and water, Yingyi attacked, and it evolved into a battle for the war, full of people to take care of the main fu, headed by Mu Xiang and Qi Zhongtang, and the Han people fought the main battle, headed by Wang Zhongtang (Wang Ding).

It is a battle or a battle, the two sides are in dispute, at this juncture, the Guangdong Sailor and the Yuanqi regimental training have achieved a great victory in sharpening the knife and a great victory in Dinghai, and the Guangdong Naval Division is just that, but the Yuanqi regimental training is a lot to do. ”

After a pause, he pondered and said: "If the old man is not bad, the court's reward for contentment is a kind of balance, and he did not appoint contentment as the minister of regimental training, but rewarded contentment with the rank of third-class lieutenant." ”

Hearing this, Yi Zhi's heart sank, why was he involved in the party struggle in a daze? Yuan Qi can't stand their toss, if Lin Zexu is transferred and Qi Shan becomes the governor of Liangguang, doesn't that mean that Yuan Qi's good days are over?

Seeing that he was silent, Lin Zexu said slowly: "Although contentment is young, but thoughtful and long-term, when you understand, many things can not be achieved overnight, this matter is not in a hurry, when the time is ripe, it is not too late to mention it, now that Yingyi Chen soldiers are abroad, contentment is still worried about no chance?" ”

"What your lord said is very true." Yi Zhixiang said so in his mouth, but he didn't think so, once Daoguang became wary of Yuan Qi, if he wanted to change his mind, I am afraid it would not be easy, not to mention that there were so many full people fanning the flames on the side, the dispute between the Manchus and the Hans, after all, the Qing Dynasty was full of people, how could the Han people win? In another ten years, it's about the same.

He came to see Lin Zexu today just to knock on the side to see what was going on without giving the minister of group training, and now that he has the answer, he doesn't want to stay longer, Yifu doesn't know how to be lively now, he, the main master, should hurry back, otherwise the old man should be in a hurry.

He was about to get up, but Lin Zexu spoke again: "Qi Zhongtang mentioned to me this morning that it was a negotiation with Yingyi, and the matter was very important, and there was no one around him who was proficient in Yiyi, nor was there a talent who was familiar with the national conditions of England, so he wanted to ask for help." ”

Participating in negotiations with England? Yi Zhizu hesitated slightly, he knew very well that in the first round of negotiations, the risk was not ordinary, reputation or something, he didn't care about himself, but he couldn't care less about Yuan Qi's reputation, and more importantly, Daoguang, who had never experienced the shame of losing power and humiliating the country, was extremely dissatisfied with this round of negotiations, if he participated in the negotiations, God knows if Qishan would push him out as a scapegoat?

After a slight sigh, he said: "Here is the Fu Tai business, has always had trade contacts with Yingyi, and has a lot of exchanges with Yilu, two days ago in Macao and privately talks with Yingyi, and then to return a large number of British prisoners of war, it is really not suitable to participate in the negotiations, if Lord Qincha needs to be proficient in English and familiar with the British national conditions, you can recommend it." ”

"Looking at Guangzhou, who better to negotiate with Yingyi than to be content?" Lin Zexu said with a smile: "Yuanqi regimental training participated in the battle of Sharpening the Knife Yang, contentment and led the troops to recover Dinghai, how many Yingyi were killed and injured, is it possible that there are still people who question the contentment and fornication of Yingyi?" ”

Can't get rid of this? It seems that either Qi Shan forcibly asked him, or Lin Zexu agreed with his mouth, but he couldn't accept this matter anyway, and it was obviously not appropriate to refuse directly, he groaned slightly, and Yi Zhizhi said: "Lord Qincha is so loving, and he dares to shirk in the next, but the Lord knows that Yingyi's temperament is repeated and changeable, even if he participates in the negotiation, he can't participate in it from the beginning." ”

Lin Zexu interrupted him with a smile and said, "Negotiating with Yingyi is an errand for Lord Qincha, how to talk about it, be content and go to discuss with Lord Qincha." After a pause, he continued: "Qi Zhongtang went to Humen, it is estimated that he will stay in Humen, and he is content to rush to Humen tomorrow, and the negotiation with Yingyi is imminent, and this matter cannot be delayed." ”

"I'll go to Humen tomorrow." Yi Zhizhi said that when he saw Lin Zexu serving tea, he quickly got up and said goodbye, he was going to Macau anyway to arrange the return of prisoners of war, and he would go to Humen by the way, just to see Guan Tianpei.

Coming out of the Governor's Mansion, Yi Zhizhi hurriedly rushed to Cong Gui Fang Yi, although he lived in Lei Garden, but such a big happy event, there must be quite a lot of guests in Yi Mansion, he had to go to Yi Mansion first to earn some face for the old man, and hurried to Yi Mansion, the sky was already dark, and the entire Yi Mansion was brightly lit inside and outside.

Before the sedan chair reached the gate, it was seen by a group of stewards who wanted to wear it, and hurriedly greeted him, and when he got off the sedan chair, everyone bowed down and said, "I've seen the third young master." ”

Yi Zhixiang said with a smile: "When my young master returns home, he needs to see him like this, and he is busy with his own errands." With that, he quickly stepped into the gate, and before passing the porch door, the housekeeper Su Yun greeted him lightly and said with a smile: "The third young master is finally back, but the master has asked countless times, and he can't find the third young master everywhere." ”

"Just got back from the city." Yi Zhishu said and asked, "Where is the master?" ”

Su Yun said lightly: "In the main room, I have already rested. ”

"Rested?" Yi Zhishu reacted after a change of thought, and hurriedly said, "Is your body okay?" ”

"It's fine." Su Yun hurriedly said: "Hearing the news, the eldest young master was worried that the master was too excited, so he invited Tang Langzhong to come over and take care of it, the third young master can rest assured, there is no big problem, but he is lacking." ”

Yi Zhishu nodded, relieved, the old man's illness can not be excited, can not be stimulated, he is really worried about making a happy and sad thing, after going to the main room to ask his mother for peace, he went to the west courtyard to see his brother Yi Zhishu, by the way with the guests who did not leave, before returning to the east cross courtyard where he originally lived, tomorrow morning to ask the old man for peace, he didn't want to go back and forth, so he simply stayed.

After the bathing party, Yi Zhishu was about to fall asleep, but Yi Zhishu came, and after a little greeting, he said: "Many officials came to congratulate today, and they all gave congratulatory gifts, and the gifts were not light. As he spoke, he took out a list and said, "I have made detailed statistics with the housekeeper." ”

Yi Zhizu took the gift list, glanced at it a little, and said with a smile: "I will accept the gift list, and the gift will be left in the house, and I will not lack silver there." ”

Yi Zhishu was not polite to him, and after a little hesitation, he said: "The third brother also knows that he has no ability for his brother, and next time he has a chance to be promoted, can the third brother give your nephew a meritorious name." ”

Nephew? Yi Zhizhi is content, his little nephew is only seven years old, how can he be promoted? The Qing Dynasty began to do this? After a slight pause, he smiled and said, "We are just two brothers, and my brother is still worried that I will not take care of my nephew in the future?" Don't worry, Xiaohu'er's fame is on me.
