Chapter Eighty-Four: I Don't Want to Do It

Tang Qianming returned to the Hairong ship with a check, and as soon as he went on the deck, he saw Sa Zhenbing standing on the deck like an old lion and condensing Wuchang, and a ghost in his heart hurriedly stepped forward: "Jiwu see the Lord of the Commander ()." ”

"I'm back." Sa Zhenbing didn't say anything strangely, glanced at him and asked, "Have you picked everything up?" ”

"It's all food, it's simple." Tang Qianming beckoned the sailors to start carrying supplies, and he walked to Sa Zhenbing's side and whispered: "I met someone sent by Li Du in the concession, and he asked me to forward this letter to you. ”

"This Song Qing, I just came to a letter a few days ago to persuade the old man to do it anyway, and now he is coming again, it's really a bit out of place." Sa Zhenbing didn't read the letter after taking it, stuffed it into his pocket and asked, "Can you contact Jiwu here?" ”

There are some things that Tang Qianming knows that he can't hide from him, so he said very simply: "Jiwu did bring a letter to the humble position, but I have already replied to him that the water masters are all in charge of the Sa system." ”

"I'm in charge? If only you could listen to me. Sa Zhenbing boarded the flybridge, and behind him was a fleet of thirteen warships, including Hai Chip and Hai Chen, who had just arrived, but he always had a feeling of lack of strength when he looked at this fleet.

He has been serving in the Navy for 40 years, and he doesn't know how many twists and turns he has experienced along the way from the beginning of Beiyang to Dadonggou, how can he not know that Tang Qianming rushed to the concession to procure the rest of the matter.

Now this water division is all his hope, and he has pinned his dream of bloodbathing the shame of Dadonggou! But before he could gradually grow stronger, he was pulled to fight a civil war and aimed his guns at his own compatriots, which was how could he accept it.

Blowing the river breeze, Sa Zhenbing sighed, will the dreams, persistence and loyalty of his life come to naught?

Sa Zhenbing turned his head, looked at Tang Qianming behind him, and was just about to speak, when the telegraph operator hurriedly walked over: "Commander, Zaitao has sent a telegram again, asking us to attack quickly and not to delay the opportunity. ”

"Say what?"

"If you don't attack again, you have to remove the pipe belt."

"Removal tape?" Sa Zhenbing smiled bitterly, the Great Qing Kingdom is really not as good as the generation! This Zaitao is even more bold, he doesn't even have the courage to say that he will be replaced, and he deliberately slackens his battle in Yangluo, isn't he waiting to remove himself from his post and not wade into this troubled water?! Now that Hubei has recovered, Jiujiang has been locked, Beiyang, known as the first in China, was beaten to the ground by the unknown Yang Qiu in Wusheng Pass, and the dry period is coming soon, the sailor has been unfavorable day by day, if the two Huai and Nanjing are also cast, I'm afraid it's really bad, it seems that we still have to find other ways to deal with a few shots and then avoid it, so I immediately said: "Call back, the river is narrow, and the loss of Guishan is not conducive to the sailor's attack alone, so let Beiyang rush to cooperate." Without looking back, he slipped into the cabin.

Seeing that he continued to fight without fighting, Tang Qianming was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately went to the sea chip ship to help Huang Zhongying plan anyway in the name of sending things.

Xu Shichang got off the sedan chair and saw Yihe Natong and asked, "Lord Wang, what's wrong?" Why do you want to hold a cabinet meeting again? ”

Yi skimmed his beard and shouted: "It's not Sa Zhenbing ()!" After grinding and not attacking, Yin Chang was blocked outside Wusheng Pass again, and he couldn't advance an inch, but he was angry and wanted to find us for entertainment! Along the way, he yelled and shouted that he didn't pay attention to the Praetorian Guard soldiers and several other ministers around him, and he was so angry that he always looked down on the three of them.

Walking to the door of the main hall, a touch of golden sun refracted from the glazed tiles and stabbed Xu Shichang's eyes, this brilliance is really beautiful, but it's a pity that this solemn and majestic Forbidden City is afraid that the south can't be chaotic anymore, and today is also the time to bring out that person! Thinking of this, he immediately glanced at Yi and Na Tong before stepping in.

Zaifeng in the hall was restless and at a loss, and finally Yuan Shikai spoke, but there were 3,000 dead and wounded, Yin Chang had not yet won Wusheng Pass, I heard that there was already a commotion in Beiyang, and said that if he didn't remove him, he wouldn't fight! This side has not yet entered Hubei, there is Jiao Dafeng in Hunan, Chen Zuoxin and the new army rebelled, invaded Changsha and drove away the governor Yu Chengge, established the Hunan Military Government, and looked away from Wuchang.

If it was just Huguang, it would have been forgotten, but a few days ago, there was bad news, receiving an urgent report from Shaanxi, where the new army contacted the elders and other gangs also rebelled, not only killed the Xi'an general Wen Rui, but also slaughtered thousands of flag soldiers, tens of thousands of flag people's families or thrown into the well, or hanged, or collective, thousands of dead, the rest of the flag people in the city were also killed by those who rushed into the streets and alleys, the chaotic party, the flag people were killed and injured as many as tens of thousands!

Immediately after Jiujiang began to make trouble again, Jiangxi's independence may be just around the corner, and he declared independence in a row, making it difficult for him, the regent, to sleep and eat, looking at the son who was sitting on the dragon chair, wearing a dragon crown, and full of bright yellow was hated that he could not grow up immediately, and relieved himself of the heavy responsibility of boiling him dry, until the eunuch came to report that the ministers had arrived, and he reluctantly hurriedly collected his mind and returned to normal.

Before he could speak, Yi, who had just entered the main hall, shouted bluntly: "Your Majesty, Regent!" It's not goodβ– It's not good! I just received a telegram that Nanchang is in an emergency! ”

"What!" This download Feng was really anxious, and rushed to Yi in a hurry: "Is this serious?" ”

"Does the Lord Regent think it's a joke?" Yi Zao couldn't see it well, and his nostrils twisted and continued: "The battle of the Yinchang overseer army is unfavorable, Yuan Shikai has asked Beiyang to help, but he still can't beat the district, at this moment, there are already sergeants in front of the battle, Hunan and Shaanxi have taken advantage of this riot, and the Wuhan chaos has increased to forty or fifty thousand people, and I also ask the regent to make a decision as soon as possible ()!" ”

Decide what a fart!

Zaifeng hated to slap this old guy with his nostrils facing the sky, since the start of the war, he has been babbling every day to let Yuan Shikai out of the mountain, and recently he has been all over the street to preach that the war in the south is unfavorable, and he must not be pacified unless he is a heavy minister, and now let himself decide, don't you just want to give Yuan Shikai a stinky foot.

Yi no matter what, the prince couldn't move him, Zaifeng had to ask Xu Shichang with a cold face, Xu Shichang took out a fold from his sleeve and said: "This is the proposal of the British ambassador Zhu Erdian, the ambassador of the United States, the ambassador of France, the ambassador of Germany, the bank group of the four countries, and the proposal of the legation in Beijing, they hope that the regent will allow Yuan Gongbao to serve as the prime minister to sort out the military and politics, patrol the southeast on behalf of the emperor, crack down on the chaotic party, and restore stability." ”

Zaitao was young and vigorous, and when he saw Xu Shichang using foreigners to suppress them, he sneered: "There is a huge court, is it only his surname Yuan?" So many of our princes and ministers have become wine bags and rice bags? According to me, if you directly let me lead the Praetorian Guard to fight with the First Town, I don't believe that I can't deal with a few chaotic parties! ”

"Take the Praetorian Guard to deal with the rebels, are you ashamed to panic? The Praetorian Guard is going south, who will defend the important places in Gyeonggi? Yi sneered: "Now there are 70,000 or 80,000 people in Wuhan's people's army, and only Yuan Gongbao's Beiyang Army can deal with it, and Yuan Gong's talent is ten times better than you!" If Yuan Shikai is not called out to prime minister Hubei military, the situation will be even more out of control!

The sentence just now is still forty or fifty thousand, and in the blink of an eye, it is seventy or eighty thousand! Shanqian couldn't bear Yi's method of blowing out tens of thousands of people to carry Yuan out in the blink of an eye, and reprimanded angrily: "Yi, you are also a descendant of the Blue Flag Ai Xinjue Luo clan, but you go to hold the stinky feet of a Han slave!" He Yuan Gongbao is "talented", and he has made a fortune! I heard that I have been very fat in the past few years when I returned to my hometown, how much silver do I give you every year? It's worth your life?! ”

Yi Kuang was ashamed and angry, and pointed at Shanqian and scolded angrily: "You mean that the old man and I were bribed by Yuan Shikai? I dare to pack the ticket, I am clear with him ()! If you don't make it clear today, the old man and you are not finished! ”

Shanqian has always been unobtrusive, and his face twisted and said coldly: "Scratch the and paste the face, and want to cover it!" ”

"You!!" Yi Kuang was so angry that his whole body trembled, seeing that he was about to stage a full martial arts, everyone hurriedly pulled away, and Zaifeng had a headache, it was worth asking Xu Shichang again if he really reached the point where Yuan Shikai couldn't do it.

Xu Shichang was scheming, knowing that it would not be good to say good things to Yuan Shikai at this moment, so he pretended to be silent for a while and said: "Hunan, Shaanxi declared independence, Jiangxi has a branch after Jiujiang, Nanchang has branches, no matter what, there should always be someone who comes out to lead the overall situation." Now the soldiers in front of the battle, most of them are the old Beiyang department, Yinchang is inexperienced in commanding the army, the army is not an army, and a mere Wusheng Pass has been made disgraced to take care of one or the other, it is really not a talent to lead the army, if the regent can find a person who can replace him, I don't think he may be invited out. ”

"Then you Xu Shichang come! You are also an old man in Beiyang, you can always suppress those soldiers, right? Shanqi immediately jumped out to suggest, but before he could finish speaking, Xu Shichang took out a letter from his sleeve and said: "Regent, Shichang, as an assistant minister, sat and watched the riots and independence in Hubei, Hunan, Shaanxi and other places, and now Jiangxi is unstable, maybe it will affect Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Suzhou, Weichen is really ashamed of the emperor, so today I specially ask to resign and return to my hometown." ”

Before Zaifeng and the others understood, Yi and Natong immediately bent down and bowed their heads: "Weichen, please also take off the heavy responsibility and take care of the old age." ”

Zaifeng never thought that the three of them would directly threaten him to resign to force him to make a decision, he was trembling with anger, and he couldn't wait to let the Praetorian Guards immediately pull the three out of the noon gate and behead them. At this moment, the shouts of the captain came from outside the hall, and the captain of the Praetorian Guard did not wait to raise his head, he had already knelt down on one knee and held a telegram and shouted urgently: "Your Majesty, Hubei urgent, in the middle of the night, the chaotic party gathered more than 10,000 people to open the road to Xiangyang with cannons and machine guns, and the Xiangyang patrol who was waiting for reinforcements there thanked Baosheng, Liu Yunyu and other five battalions of men and horses tried their best to resist and were still outnumbered, losing 34 warships, more than 10 cannons, and more than 2,000 soldiers were captured!" There have been countless losses of guns and bullets, and now the Goo L Party striker has gone to Wusheng Pass! ”

Poof, Zaifeng fell down on the chair, and the little emperor behind him suddenly cried.
