Tianjing City. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info East Prince's Mansion.

Yang Xiuqing received a letter from the Northern Expeditionary Army, which was jointly issued by Qin Rigang, Huang Wenjin, and Zhu Xikun. Yang Xiuqing frowned and looked at Yuwen.

Qin Rigang, Huang Wenjin, Zhu Xikun and others replied to the report of His Royal Highness the Zuo Fu Zhengjun Shi Dong Wang Jiu Chi Chi Tose: In order to return to the previous situation to suppress the demons, the lowly rank led the generals to break through from Jinghai City on the ninth day of November, breaking through the three demon camps outside the city, and some demons came to take over the battle. The holy soldiers scrambled to chase and kill more than 4,500 demon soldiers, and the besieging demon soldiers were defeated and fled. But the demon head monk Greenqin, Shengbao two cavalry tens of thousands of pursuit, my holy soldiers red powder and food shortage, had no choice, to Dagukou, coincided with the southern king of Guangdong under the command of the 6,000-year-old Luo outline led the sailor to arrive, had to take a sea ship to Liaodong, the three of the small humble post led the holy soldiers to capture Jinzhou and other places, the north is cold, the holy soldiers have frostbite, to be warmed in the spring, the three of them continue to lead the holy soldiers to capture the north, enter the demon cave. The mountains and rivers are so far away, and it is difficult to communicate with each other. Now in the demon land Fengtian Jinzhou to deliberate, return to the kings of His Royal Highness Jin'an, no worries and worries. Long live the Celestial King, long live the king, long live!

The thirteenth day of November in the third year of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Yang Xiuqing looked at the date, and it had been almost a month. I can't help but secretly say that we must send more secret agents to Liaodong and the Central Plains in the north to ensure the smooth flow of news.

After reading this official letter, Yang Xiuqing took out another one, but it was a secret letter written by Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun, explaining in detail what happened.

The two mentioned that the soldiers of the Taiping Army of the Northern Expedition were originally in a desperate situation, but they were rescued by Luo Jiao, who was sent by the Southern King of Guangzhou, and led 20,000 sailors to take them to Jinzhou, Fengtianfu, Liaodong, and then the soldiers of the Northern Expedition captured Jinzhou City.

However, both Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun mentioned that Nanwang's sailors seemed to have planned and deliberately appeared at a critical juncture to transport the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army to Liaodong, and deliberately placed them in Liaodong under the pretext of lack of supplies.

And Qin Rigang, the king of Yan, seems to be deliberately targeting the two of them, letting the two attack the fortified city with a small number of soldiers, and from Jinghai onwards, they have been eliminating dissidents, promoting cronies, and attracting the holy soldiers of the Dongwang family to be led by his younger brother.

Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun vaguely reminded the East King to prevent King Yan from having the same intention of becoming king as the King of the South, and pay attention to monitoring the movements of King Yan's relatives in Tianjing City.

But at the same time, the two also told Yang Xiuqing that Qin Rigang, the king of Yan, was very cautious, and from beginning to end, until now, he did not express his intention to leave the kingdom of heaven.

Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun asked the king of the east to consider also developing the Yangtze River naval division into an offshore naval division to connect Liaodong, which could not only support the Northern Expedition soldiers in time, but also dare not act rashly, but also conquer Shandong, Zhili and Liaodong along the sea route.

The two finally spoke, and Qin Rigang, the king of Yan, sent them to lead their troops to attack Gaizhou and Phoenix City in the north.

After reading the two reports, Yang Xiuqing was furious and smashed several exquisite vases on the table to the ground one after another! His worst fears have happened! Qin Rigang wants to be self-reliant, this two-faced brute!

He had been guarding against several people in the court, such as Wei Changhui, the king of the north, Shi Dakai, the king of wings, and this Qin Rigang, all of whom did not allow the three of them to lead the troops alone. But this time, there were really no generals who could command tens of thousands of troops.

What's more, this Qin Rigang has always been respectful to him to the extreme, even when he usually marches, he will lead the horse for him, he also saw that he defected to himself, so he ordered him to be the main general and lead the troops to the battle, plus there are Huang Wenjin and Zhu Xikun on the side, it should be no big problem, plus he has named him the king of Yan, he should be more grateful to himself Dai Decai, but I didn't expect that there is such a thought......

Yang Xiuqing immediately thought that a while ago, he asked Wei Changhui, the king of the North, to preside over the major events of the Western Expedition, but it seemed that it would not work.

So, Yang Xiuqing immediately ordered to let the northern king Wei Changhui return to Beijing, and played the left prime minister of the east hall, Zeng Shuiyuan, as the heavenly official and the prime minister, and ordered him to lead a thousand people, and hurried to Anqing to replace the northern king Wei Changhui and preside over the western expedition.

Yang Xiuqing is really unsent. There are many cronies around him, such as Hou Qianfang, Li Shouhui, Li Shouchun, Huang Weijiang, Liu Shaoting, Ji Chengzi, Fu Xuexian, Zeng Zhaoyang, He Zhenchuan, Lu Xianba, Chen Zongsheng and others, but they are not the talents of the generals who command the army.

To entitle Zeng Shuiyuan as the prime minister of heaven is to prepare him to replace Qin Rigang's position of prime minister of heaven. At the same time, Yang Xiuqing asked people to strictly monitor the Yanwang Mansion in Tianjing City, and personally dispatched the female officials of the Yanwang Mansion to report as soon as there was a disturbance.

Suddenly, Yang Xiuqing remembered that the young general under his account who named him Li Xiucheng was a talent, loyal and well-trained, and could be used as his arm in the future.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiuqing summoned people to come in, passed down the message, and announced that he would send Li Xiucheng to Anqing with Zeng Shuiyuan, accompany him to the west, and promote Li Xiu to become a military commander, and lead a thousand soldiers of the king of the east to rush to the battlefield to assist Zeng Shuiyuan in the westward expedition.

For Li Xiucheng, Yang Xiuqing attaches great importance to it. He wants to set up a model, and he, the king of the east, will recognize talents and promote them as a model, so as to improve his prestige.

After finishing his work, Yang Xiuqing calmed down and thought about the affairs of King Nan.

All along, he thought that he had figured out King Nan's weak and forbearant nature, so he snatched the position of the second-in-command in the Holy Sect step by step, and King Nan didn't say anything. You know, others don't know, but who doesn't know the old people in the sect, Yang Xiuqing himself also knows in his heart that although this God Worship Holy Sect is said to be founded by the King of Heaven, it was founded by the King of the South in the area of Bauhinia Mountain. But even if the Holy Sect created by King Nan was intercepted by himself pretending to be Heavenly Father in the end, King Nan still endured and was willing to be under himself.

But the more he did this, the more worried and scared he became. If you want to talk about learning, you can't read big words, if you want to talk about prestige, if you don't know how to act and pretend to be possessed by your Heavenly Father, you are just a small boss, so as long as you are with Nanwang for a day, you will never be at ease.

What he wants is to turn the king of heaven into a puppet, let him become a god from above, and send people to serve him well, while he himself works a little harder and is responsible for all the affairs of the mortal world. Yang Xiuqing believed that with his means, he would definitely be able to overthrow the Manchus, and in the future, perhaps, ,......

But I never expected that when the king of the south went out of Guangxi, he took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the rear army, and actually led a group of paiwei to capture Daozhou and occupy southern Hunan, and then, when the main force of the Taiping army attacked Changsha, it further developed and expanded, and captured Guangxi and Guangdong.

Now, there is such a huge group of sailors! Yang Xiuqing couldn't help but feel powerless!

And, Yang Xiuqing remembered that some time ago, he heard that in the south, factories and mines were built on a large scale, foreigners were introduced machinery and equipment, and workers were recruited to work.

Especially Chen Yucheng, Li Kaifang and other subordinates under the king of the south fought in all directions, why didn't they dig out these people in the first place?

When the king of Nan occupied Liangguang, he was already hot-eyed, and specially sent someone to invite him to return to heaven, but he politely refused under various excuses. Alas, I still blame myself for not being resolute enough and not directly and forcefully ordering him to return to the team.

Now that the momentum has been achieved, it is even more difficult to restrain him. If you force it too quickly, if you don't do it well, it will make the Qing demon sit on the benefits of the fisherman. What can I think of to weaken his power and strengthen myself, but not cheaply clear the demon?

Yang Xiuqing thought hard.

Navy? Yes, Tang Zhengcai, the leader of his own sailors, although he is excellent, and there are tens of thousands of sailor soldiers, but they are all inland river warships, and he has never thought of going to sea.

As......

Yang Xiuqing smiled, and had made up her mind in her heart.
