Chapter 685: Guizhou and the Attachment of the People

In the city of Guiyang Mansion in Guizhou, the governor of the yamen. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jiang Weiyuan, the governor of Guizhou, put the letter in his hand on the Fu case, and sighed to one of his henchmen and said: "Mr. Ding, now that the state affairs are so corrupted, and there is no power to return to heaven, what can I do about it?" Originally, Benfu just wanted to keep the peace of Guizhou alone and wait and see the changes, but now it is time to choose! ”

Seeing that the young scholar on the side was silent, Jiang Weiyuan picked up the letter in his hand again, handed it to him, and said, "Mr. Ding, you take a look at this first!" ”

The young scholar took the letter, glanced at it quickly, his eyes changed, and said: "Lord Futai, this Xingyi Prefecture Governor Zhang Qiang and Dushan Prefecture Governor Han Chao, Duyun Prefecture Governor Lu Pizong, and Dingfan Prefecture Governor Shi Jun actually jointly signed a letter to persuade Lord Futai to return to the Chinese Empire?" Seeing that these four people have a fearless appearance, they must be colluded, and they are ready to betray the Qing Dynasty and betray Lord Futai? ”

"Not bad! Mr. Ding is right! Jiang Weiyuan explained: "These four people are all linked by Zhang Qi, the governor of Xingyi Prefecture, and they advance and retreat together. Han Chao, the governor of Dushan Prefecture, has been Zhang Qiang's friend for many years and the teacher of his proud son Zhang Zhidong; Lu Pizong, the prefect of Duyun Prefecture, is the father-in-law of Zhang Qiang's daughter, and he is considered to be a son and daughter's in-law; Dingfanzhou Zhizhou Shijun is the brother-in-law of Zhang Qiang's son Zhang Zhidong, and he can be regarded as an in-law. Therefore, these four people jointly signed the book, maybe it was Zhang Qiang's idea! And this Zhang Qi, who has been an official in Guizhou for more than 20 years, can be regarded as a rare good official in Guizhou, has served as Qingping, Anhua, Guizhu, Weining, Guzhou Zhuzhou County Officials, and later served as Liping Prefect, Yifu Prefect, Zunyi Prefect, Guidong Daoist, Guixi Daoist and Yifu Prefect, most of Guizhou's counties have served, can be regarded as the old man of Guizhou officialdom, has always been loyal to the Qing Dynasty, and his words are very weighty, even if he is Benfu, he also relies on him deeply. Unexpectedly, now the whole Benfu surrendered to the Cantonese thief! ”

"Adult, students don't know whether to say something or not!" The young scholar's eyes moved, and he suggested.

"Zhihuang, Benfu knows what you have to say! Fortunately, since we have reached such a situation today, let's listen to you! Jiang Weiyuan simply spread it out and said.

"Lord Futai, then the student let go and said, everything is for the sake of adults!" The young staff walked up to Jiang Weiyuan and took out a map, but it was the territory of the entire Qing Dynasty, he pointed to several provinces in the south, as well as the northern Zhili and Henan Shandong areas, and said: "Lord Futai, with all due respect to the students, Lord Zhang Qiang and Zhang They advise you to submit to the Chinese Empire, I think they are also good for you!" Your lord, you see, in the current situation in the world, the Qing Dynasty has retreated back to the outside of the Guan, and if they send 350,000 troops to the captive army, it is a question whether Shengjing can hold it, and the Qing Dynasty is no longer able to make a comeback, and it is undoubtedly impossible to re-enter the Central Plains! ”

"This most prosperous south is occupied by the Chinese Empire! Today, this densely populated northern region, such as Shandong, Henan, and Zhili, are also under the rule of the empire. It can be said that it is a foregone conclusion that the Chinese Empire will replace the Qing Dynasty and win the world. The most important thing is that Guizhou under the rule of adults has become an enclave, and all the places around it have been subordinated to the empire. Moreover, now that Zhang Chung and other local governors have clearly turned to the empire, the students believe that the whole of Guizhou is far more than just the four state capitals that want to join the Chinese empire. If the adults still want to compete with the empire at this time, without their support, the adults will give the order by themselves, but I am afraid that they will be forced to rebel everywhere, just like the thief Yang Longxi. ”

Speaking of the thief Yang Longxi, Jiang Weiyuan was even more bitter in his heart!

In the late autumn of last year, Yang Longxi, the thief head of the Tongzi people, launched an uprising in his hometown with another thief Shu Guangfu, declaring what "eliminating the violence and reassuring the people", calling himself "Yellow Soldier", with his hometown of Tongzi Jiuba Field in Zunyi Mansion as the center, making waves in the Zunyi area, leading the Han and Miao people to make trouble, and then respecting Shu Guangfu as the emperor, and establishing the year name "Jiang Han", this Yang Longxi considered himself the generalissimo of the governor, declared that he was against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and wantonly posted a notice to free food for the people, and opened a warehouse to help the poor when he captured the official warehouse, for a time, It was supported by a mob, and the rebels soon grew to more than 20,000 people.

This year, because of the decline of the Qing Dynasty, the rebels became even more active, not only in Zunyi Mansion, but also in the neighboring Dading Mansion, Anshun Mansion, Pingyue Prefecture, Duyun Mansion and Guiyang Mansion.

This year's grain tax can't be collected, let alone resist the upcoming attack of the Chinese Empire's captive army, I'm afraid even these local rebels can't resist it.

Who let most of the troops in Guizhou, a poor and remote country, were originally transferred to Jiangnan to pacify the Taiping Army, and the rest were also consumed in Kunming City?

"That's it! Two groups of thieves and soldiers pressed the border, Guizhou could not resist, Jiang had to plan for the common people in Guizhou, so he listened to Zhang Qiang's advice and sent a letter to Jiangning, announcing that Benfu and Guizhou were willing to submit to the Chinese Empire! Jiang Weiyuan said bitterly, for a while, it seemed to be a few years old.

"Lord Futai is wise! Students admire! This move is really a blessing for the people of Guizhou and a blessing for the world! The young scholar bowed to the ground.

"Zhihuang, you are full of talent, just because your mother is at home, Ben Fu recruited you to come over as a staff member, but it is a waste of your talents. This time, I surrendered, and I didn't have the intention of being an official, I just wanted to seek peace for the people of Guizhou, but I couldn't help you anymore. Seeing that Zhang Gong seemed to be so enthusiastic about the Chinese Empire, he must have some friendship with the Empire, so Ben Fu wrote back to him and asked him to find an errand for you in the Empire. It won't insult your talent! Jiang Weiyuan began to arrange a way back for his staff, which deeply moved the young readers.

A few days later, Jiang Weiyuan, the governor of Guizhou, issued a notice, claiming that in the name of the governor of Guizhou in the Qing Dynasty, he led the army and people of Guizhou to submit to the Chinese Empire, and asked the Chinese Empire to send troops to defend Guizhou, suppress the rebels in the territory, calm the war, and pacify the people.

At the same time, several major prefectures in Guizhou, including Xingyifu, Duyunfu, Dingfanzhou, Dushanzhou, Lipingfu, Zhenyuanfu, Sizhoufu, and Tongrenfu, issued notices one after another, claiming to support the decision of the Futai people and agreeing to submit to the Chinese Empire together.

Half a month later, the 13th Division of the Chinese Empire's captive army, which was stationed far away in Kunming, and a local garrison brigade stationed in Qingyuan Mansion, Guangxi, entered Guizhou, and then met Yang Longxi's "Yellow Soldiers" in Anshun Mansion, Dading Mansion and Guiyang Mansion respectively.

Unexpectedly, less than half an hour after this firing, the "Yellow Soldiers" were directly defeated, and almost all of the nearly 10,000 righteous troops on the battlefield were annihilated.

The captive army then took advantage of the situation to recruit the "Yellow Soldiers", and occupied Anshun Mansion, Dading Mansion and Guiyang Mansion, which were originally occupied by the "Yellow Soldiers".

Yang Longxi was furious, led tens of thousands of troops to attack, but was also killed to throw away knives and sticks, a row of guns passed, dead and wounded all over the field, Yang Longxi realized that in front of this captive army, with the sheep with wooden sticks, in desperation, he had to give up the illusion of self-reliance, tie himself up, and surrender to the begging army.

At this point, the captive army entered Guiyang City and occupied the base camp of the Yellow Soldiers, Tongzi County in Zunyi Prefecture. The whole of Guizhou came under the rule of the Chinese Empire.

As meritorious people, Zhang Qi, the prefect of Xingyi Prefecture, and others, as well as Jiang Weiyuan, the governor of Guizhou, and other officials from various places who surrendered and surrendered, Yang Longxi and others, were all sent to Shengjing, where they were received by Emperor Feng Yunshan and evaluated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and rearranged their positions.

Guizhou Governor Jiang Weiyuan's staff named Ding Baozhen, and another famous minister of later generations, Zhang Zhidong, these two people who did not know each other, followed together and embarked on the road to Jiangnan.
