Chapter 190: The Three Eastern Provinces

The pattern of the two auxiliary ministers was made by Guo Songtao, and he originally wanted to pull Su Shun who promoted him to do it together, but when he discussed with Su Shun "building a yì emperor to learn the Western system", he was scolded by Su Shun. Guo Songtao was so disappointed that he had to deal with the more noble Prince Gong in order to win over a member of the royal family in the duopoly era.

Prince Gong is not averse to Western-style politics, which is already quite rare in the Qing Dynasty, which is full of conservative factions, but Prince Gong thinks that the Qing Dynasty is unlikely to go that way, even if the emperor seems to be studying well now, it is really unimaginable to decentralize the power of the Son of Heaven. So when he and Guo Songtao received the edict of Emperor Xianfeng together, they were very shocked.

This so-called edict is of course an edict, the real edict of Emperor Xianfeng has been burned by the "imperial guards" around him, and the real content will never be known, even Tang Ning does not know, because he said "I have no interest in knowing" when he ordered it to be burned.

Before Tang Ning left Rehe, he had already asked Xianfeng to sign two blank sacred edicts, and once there was a change, he could come in handy, but Jiao Youying, who was in charge of writing the edict, was too nervous and wrote both blank sacred edicts. Guo Songtao had no choice but to find a calligraphy master to simulate the handwriting of Emperor Xianfeng, and practiced for three days before starting, but a discerning person may still see it, and it has become a hidden danger to the legitimacy of the edict.

The era of Jiao Youying's drafting edicts came to an end permanently, and the holy decrees were written by Guo Songtao or Prince Gong himself, or even printed out in standard fonts on a Chinese typewriter, and then handed over to the Empress Dowager for sealing. This is another link designed by Lord Guo, because the life safety of the Queen Mother is completely in the hands of the Windsor Consortium, and through Guò's hand, she can control the ultimate authority of the Qing Dynasty. It is also possible to keep Prince Gong in the dark, and if nothing else, the king of the Qing Dynasty may have always thought that he was the most powerful military minister in the Qing Dynasty before the completion of constitutional reform.

The most obedient Efu Jingshou is the minister of the guard who is the leader of the Zhengyipin Major, the leader of the Shenji Battalion in the capital on the surface, in fact, the Shenji Camp Windsor Consortium controls the private army in the capital, Jingshou also entered the military aircraft department and became a big helper to check and balance the political king, and the rest of the people who were brought to Rehe by Emperor Xianfeng at that time included Hubu Shangshu Sushun, Prince Yi Zaiyuan, Prince Zheng Duanhua, Minister of Military Aircraft Mu Yin, Kuang Yuan, Du Han, Jiao Youying and others gradually faded out of people's field of vision and were secretly placed under house arrest.

The long description of the Western parliamentary system in the Qing Shimbun newspaper caused the officials in the Qing officialdom to go viral, and when it was over, thousands of years of inheritance were about to be lost, and these Confucian-born guys were generally very afraid of the unforeseen future. In particular, the first pilot project in Jiangsu Province, a place of ointment, shows the strength of the imperial court reform. The voice of opposition to the subversion of the ancestral system finally broke out in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty at this moment, and the large-scale joint performance of the local governor flew to the Old Summer Palace like a hat trick, at this time the Queen Mother and the little emperor had returned to the Old Summer Palace, and the office of the auxiliary minister was also in this garden, and its security was also changed from the East India Company to the Shenji Battalion. The East India Company's original 1,000 garrisons were relocated to Tianjin. Guo Songtao was not very at ease with the political team, and delayed Prince Gong's request for the full withdrawal of this foreign team from China.

The local officials' counterattack on the restructuring was too exaggerated, Prince Gong couldn't stand it, Guo Songtao was in power at the beginning, and he was also lacking in confidence, so he called Tang Ning to seek countermeasures, but Tang Ning barely said a word, and only replied lightly, "You look at it". The Qing Dynasty was turbulent, but someone continued to watch birds in the new wind in Inner Asia.

Su Shun was overjoyed to learn that the local officials were united against the imperial court, and he was not willing to be lonely, and he finally made an appointment with his brother Prince Zheng Duanhua to flee Beijing together. Su Shun and Duanhua both wore steel rings on their wrists that could not be unloaded, but Su Shun had been planning how to get rid of this thing long ago. Finally, when he visited the exploration team of the Daqing Railway Bureau, he found a good thing - a large scissor used to cut steel wires. He and Duanhua secretly cut the steel ring and ran to the northeast with a few cronies.

The Shenji Battalion already has a military vehicle of about the same size at this time, and it is a big weapon to pursue the fugitives, but unfortunately this is also expected by Su Shun, he and Duanhua picked a small road to walk, and they really had to cross the traffic artery, and they also acted in batches, dressed as a business traveler, and escaped the initial pursuit.

In the era when helium production was restricted, a large number of airships were transferred to Panama, the Italian-French border, and the Persian Gulf battlefield, and the Daqing Railway Bureau also had three airships for exploration, so in Beijing, a key city, there was no airship to provide air support for a while, which was also a major reason why Su Shun was able to escape.

Guo Songtao estimated that Su Shun fled to Heilongjiang to conspire with Seng Lingqin, and he fabricated a lot of charges against Su Shun and Duanhua, and prepared to publish them in the Daqing News to discredit the two princes and take the lead in occupying the moral high ground. Unexpectedly, Tang Ning, who didn't interfere much with his actions, suddenly criticized him and asked him not to use this kind of obscene tricks, and to be worthy of the four words of righteousness and brightness in the Taihe Palace, even if there was a military rebellion, at most the two sides would compete with each other with their strength. Success by smearing may be successful for a while, but the consequences are very strict, and it will be regarded as a power struggle with no bottom line.

Guo Songtao agreed with Tang Ning's words, but what he didn't dare to say was that your old man imprisoned Emperor Xianfeng, is it just and bright to change the edict? Alas, forget it, anyway, someone in Tang is the emperor, so he can only do things according to his words.

At this time, Monk Lingqin was wondering why the latest batch of Desert Eagle ammunition had been delayed? Since his cavalry had used the horses purchased from the East India Company by the Shenji battalion, they had formed a great advantage over the Cossack cavalry, and it was just the right time to establish meritorious service for the country. The Russian army in the Heilongjiang River valley had a great headache for the Desert Eagle Mongolian cavalry, and Sakhalin Island was invaded by the Japanese army under the personal command of Saigo Takamori, and the Russian army, which was not rich in troops in the Far East, could only continue to shrink its front, and was bullied by the two sick men of East Asia in China and Japan.

In order to save ammunition, Monk Grinqin had to stop aggressive attacks on the Russian army and raise questions about the supply of ammunition to the imperial court. Jing Shou, the minister of the guard, replied on behalf of the imperial court: "Soon you will know the reason, it depends on your appearance." ”

Monk Lingqin's doubts were not solved until the arrival of Su Shun and Duanhua, who told the story of the first emperor's attack by foreign forces suspected of being linked to the East India Company, and urged the Mongol prince to fight for the survival of the Qing Dynasty and not to be confused by the foreigners. At this time, the feudal officials of the Qing Dynasty were setting off a vigorous movement against the puppet imperial court, and it was the right time for the monk brothers to raise the banner of righteousness and make immortal feats.

Monk Lingqin was really entangled, he touched the desert eagle on his waist that he put under the pillow even when he slept all night, did he tie up the two princes and send them to the court for meritorious service? Or is it for the sake of the real imperial court to risk a big war with the unfathomable military strength of the Chinese and foreign collusive forces? When Emperor Xianfeng went to Rehe, his temperament changed greatly, and the courtiers led by the main battle faction suddenly completely turned to peace, which made the monk Grinqin very unhappy, and later the French brought him the rumor that the emperor's imperial guards were attacked, and the emperor's real whereabouts were unknown. He was puzzled, but by then he had already disarmed and returned to the field, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Later, he came back and got a heavy use and a sharp weapon of war, and it was a good thing to fight the Russians for the benefit of the country and the people, so he put aside his doubts and gladly accepted the appointment of the general of the three eastern provinces.

Su Shun's final blow moved the monk king: "Who is the person who is really in power in the imperial court now?" It is Guo Songtao, whom I promoted before, who opposed you the most fiercely against beating foreigners in Dagukou back then. I see that he has completely become a minion of foreign devils, and he also tested whether I would like to be a puppet of foreigners with him to control the government, I scolded him, he held a grudge, and in a blink of an eye he turned to support the ghost Lao Liu (Prince Gong, known as the ghost Lao Liu because he was despised for talking with foreigners), these two people wrote the edict of the first emperor by themselves, and appointed themselves as auxiliary ministers, disrupting the dynasty, with him, we have no good fruit to eat! ”

Monk Greenqin patted the Desert Eagle and sighed: "I already believe that the current imperial court is a puppet court of foreigners, but ...... Have you seen this? He took down his pistol, laid it on the table, and continued: "My Mongol cavalry is now able to beat the Russians with their heads, and it all depends on it. Don't look at it like a big handcuff, the power is amazing, comparable to a foreigner's rifle, and it can also fire seven times in a row, replacing the charge after riding the fire. If we had it back then, the Anglo-French forces would have been unable to advance an inch after landing in Tianjin. ”

Su Shun and Duanhua glanced at each other, and Duanhua said in a deep voice: "The foreign devil attacked the guards of the first emperor with this kind of weapon, we have seen it too much." ”

Monk Greenqin: "Then you must know its power, now, the foreign devil controls the supply of ammunition for the Desert Eagle, I have inquired, only the East India Company has this kind of ammunition, not even the strongest British ** team!" The terrible Cheng dù of our enemy is far beyond imagination, and there is no chance of victory. How many troops does the Shenji Battalion have now? ”

Su Shun: "There are only three thousand, and one thousand are recruits. What about your cavalry? ”

Monk Grinqin: "Ten thousand, but there are only six thousand desert eagles, it seems that the devils deliberately controlled our weapons at this number, and we only have 5 magazines per gun with our ammunition left, about 35 rounds." In the event of a fierce battle with the Shenji Battalion, I am afraid that this number will not be enough, and the enemy has unlimited supplies, so it is not optimistic. ”

Su Shun: "But it's more than enough to protect yourself, right?" ”

Monk Greenqin: "This ...... It should be, but the imperial court will definitely recruit new soldiers, and it won't last long. ”

Su Shun: "As long as you can hold it for a year or two, the rebels in the world will rise up, and the end of the devil will come." Moreover, we can also rely on the power of foreigners, it is said that the East India Company is a company under the Windsor consortium, and they are fighting against the four major powers of the world at the same time, including France, which invaded our Qing Dynasty. Also, Russia, the United States, Prussia, these four countries have set up a body called the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to oppose this British consortium, so we also have international allies. (http://)。 ”

Monk Greenqin is a soldier who doesn't know much about world politics, and when he heard this, he felt a great increase in hope and said: "Then we can purchase arms from NATO, which is not as good as the Desert Eagle or at least stronger than the bow and arrow." Especially when it comes to buying cannons, the East India Company does not seem to have an advantage in this regard. ”

In fact, the East India Company's artillery is more terrifying than the FN-1855 and the Desert Eagle, but no enemy has the opportunity to see it, and the only one who has a peep at the leopard is the American ** observer in Granada, but they are just bombarded, and they don't know how the shells are fired, and they can only provide the US military and allies with vague information that "there may be ferocious artillery".

All in all, the three princes have reached an understanding of expelling foreign ghosts and restoring the Qing Dynasty, and are slowly planning how to deal a fatal blow to the devils. The final plan was to unite with NATO, and even send people to collude with the original rebel generals Li Xiucheng and Shi Dakai, although these people were once rebels, but they were also Chinese, and in the case of weak strength, they had to make a false contribution, so that the world could rise together, at least the Manchurians could occupy the three eastern provinces. At this time, the three princes felt that the Central Plains could not be saved, so it was better to live a good life in our hometown.
