Five hundred and fiftieth IX bite back
Xunzhou Prefecture, Wuxuan County, Guhaoli, and Luxin Town.
Luxin Town is located 30 miles southwest of the county town. It is the only way for Wuxuan to connect to Laibin County. It is known as the Western Gate of Wuxuan. Luxinwei is a famous Dawei in the distance. It was originally a place of extremely prosperous commerce, but the world has not been peaceful in recent years and has gradually become deserted.
Huang Dianyuan rushed to Luxin Town to meet Chen Yagui, who was considered the number one person in Guangxi. He walked into the largest restaurant in the town and ordered the wine and food. He was not in a hurry to eat it. He arranged the wine glasses and bowls and chopsticks according to the joints of the Tiandihui. At a moment, someone came to talk to him and took him out of the restaurant with a few words of code.
When I arrived at a secluded courtyard, as soon as I entered the door, a handsome man in his thirties and a moderate figure came up and bowed and smiled: "Brothers from the outspoken family brought a letter and said that the Huang family was coming to Xuanwu, but we have worked hard for us."
Huang Dianyuan bowed and smiled, "When I entered Guangxi, I heard the name of the Chen family. It is so well-known. I am lucky to meet you."
"Compared with the Huang family, we are not worth mentioning." Chen Yagui said, "Please, Huang family, please-."
The Taiping Army was in the Jintian of Guiping, and the battles were won continuously, with great momentum. There were many people who went to surrender, but Chen Yagui did not go. Although his Guangyitang was late, its strength expanded rapidly. In just over a year, more than a thousand people were gathered under his command. There was no need to rest as much as possible. Later, he heard that Hong Xiuquan was not tolerant, so he disdained the Taiping Army.
However, Huang Dianyuan, a brother from the Tiandihui who came from the South China Sea, gave Luo Dagang a wealthy and generous gift, and he heard about the fact that the worship of God, provided a thousand Western muskets. So when Huang Dianyuan came to Wuxuan, he was happy that he had not had a good sleep for several nights. Guangxi is now in chaos, and if he had a gun, he would be the King of Grass Heads. If his Guangyitang could also get the support of the Nanyang Tiandihui, his strength would inevitably expand rapidly and would not be inferior to worshiping God.
When he entered the house and sat down, Chen Yagui was not polite and said directly: "The Huang family came to Wuxuan, but there is any place to use our Guangyi Hall. Even if we give instructions, we will never refuse anything we can do."
Seeing that he was so happy, Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "Since Chen Dian's family is so happy, I won't hide it." After a slight pause, he continued, "I came to Wuxuan this time because I hope Guangyitang can disrupt the situation well, and it is best to fight the county town."
When he heard that he was attacking the county town, Chen Yagui's expression immediately condensed and pondered for a moment, he said: "The Huang family may not know much about the situation in Guangxi. Although we are so fussy, we are mostly in the countryside and few people attack the city. Everyone knows that attacking the city will bring crazy encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers, and will be stared at by the officers and soldiers and pursue them relentlessly. This will not only harm the place, but also harm us."
Huang Dianyuan asked in a silence: "Why?"
"The reason for wishing is very simple." Chen Yagui said: "Local officials have the responsibility to defend their territory. The city is their bottom line. If the city falls, they will be dereliction of duty. The minor ones will lose their official position, and the worst ones will lose their heads. Therefore, we generally do not fight the city, and the government will turn a blind eye to us. Those officials are all focused on ensuring peace during their posts, and then deal with the relationship and transferring them from Guangxi."
No wonder the Taiping Army always stayed in Jintian. It turned out that there was such a reason. Huang Dianyuan pondered for a while and said, "But I heard that someone had attacked the county town. Laibin's Liyuba, Taoba, Wang Yazhuang from Gui County, and Qijiang County all had attacked the county town."
"It's true that you have fought the county town." Chen Yagui smiled and said, "But it's not about occupying the county town, entering the county town to rob or extort it, and then voluntarily withdrew. Officials from Guangxi all over the world will try every means to conceal their future. There will be no problem, but if they want to occupy the county town and erect flags to rebel, it will be different."
No wonder Guangxi was so in chaos. Huang Dianyuan was speechless. It seemed that if he wanted to uncover the cover of Guangxi, let the court pay attention and attract enough attention, ordinary small fights would definitely not work. After thinking for a moment, he said: "The Taiping Army won two battles and killed the deputy generals, and the General Qianzhu General, more than ten military generals, will Guangxi soldiers encircle and suppress them?"
"Yes, sure!" Chen Yagui said without hesitation: "Hong Xiuquan proclaimed himself the Lord of Taiping, and the congregation is also called the Taiping Army. He killed so many officials of the court, which is completely different from us. The court will definitely launch a large-scale encirclement and suppression, and we guess we will all be implicated."
"The fire broke out in the city gate, which affected the fish in the pond." Huang Dianyuan said in a deep voice: "There are three roads in front of Guangyitang. They will either be wiped out by the court, or be recruited by the court to fight the Taiping Army, or they will join the Taiping Army."
Chen Yagui smiled sly, "The Huang family should be able to show us the fourth way, right?"
"Yes, indeed, there are." Huang Dian Yuanheshou said: "Like the God-worshiping Society, we can provide the necessary money and weapons to support ourselves. But the premise is that you must have this ability. The silver in Nanyang is not rushed by sea water. You must first prove that Guangyitang deserves our strong support."
Chen Yagui narrowed his eyes slightly, "Capt the city, erect a flag to rebel?"
Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "No need, you just need to kill a city and leave voluntarily for a few days."
"This is different from the past." Chen Yagui said: "Now after worshiping God, there will be such a fuss, and the whole of Guangxi is staring at our Xunzhou Prefecture."
Huang Dianyuan interrupted him and said, "Isn't your specialty to cross the border and robbery?"
At this moment, Chen Yagui was really moved. It is difficult to cross the border and attack a county town, but it is absolutely not difficult. If he can get strong support from the Nanyang Tiandihui, the Guangyitang will definitely rise quickly. If he can truly integrate the Tiandihui in Guangxi, the momentum will definitely be above the God worship meeting.
He was pondering himself, a middle-aged man walked in quickly. It seemed that Huang Dianyuan looked at him and said loudly: "Min Zhengfeng led 5,000 troops to Shilong Town, probably to Guiping, but he must pass by our Wuxuan. Should he avoid it?"
The visitor was Liu Yawu, the third leader. He had always been careless. He knew that there were not many people who had sent a gun to Huang Dianyuan, so Chen Yagui did not dare to introduce him. He immediately said, "Since we went to Guiping, we don't need to pay attention. I would not dare to make trouble for us. However, if you continue to order, just leave a few spies in the city, and others will not be allowed to enter the city recently."
"That." Liu Yawu hesitated and said, "Do you want to send a message to Jintian?"
"I don't take us seriously, so why should we touch our cold butts?" Chen Yagui waved his hand and said, "I am Taiping Lord again. If it were Taiping Army, how could we show our diligence?"
Min Zhengfeng? Guangxi Admiral Min Zhengfeng! Finally, there was a little movement. However, five thousand troops could defeat the Taiping Army? Huang Dianyuan thought to himself, and Chen Yagui said readily: "We can't be compared by those who pretend to be gods. Isn't it just a battle for a city? When they start a war, we will take action."
On the eighth day of the ninth month, Hong Xiuquan officially established the title in Jintian. He himself changed his name to the Heavenly King and Dingguo was named Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. This year was the first year of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. He announced that he would raise his hair and change his clothes and ordered all directions.
At the same time, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom established hundreds of officials and divided the five generals into commands, with Yang Xiuqing as the chief general of the central army, Xiao Chaogui as the chief general of the front army, Feng Yunshan as the chief general of the rear army, Wei Changhui as the chief general of the right army, and Shi Dakai as the chief general of the left army.
He then appointed a military advisor, Yang Xiuqing as the Left Fuzheng Military Advisor, Xiao Chaogui as the Youbi and the General Military Advisor, Feng Yunshan as the Deputy Military Advisor, Wei Changhui as the Later Guard and the Deputy Military Advisor. The General Military Advisor Yang Xiuqing was in charge of all military and political affairs. The subordinates of the military advisor, the subordinates of the six ministries, the clerks of the six ministries, including twelve members of each department, a total of 72 members, and the chief officials of the State Council were in charge of state affairs; the executives of the country reported to all directions, and the chief military advisor Yang Xiuqing issued an imperial edict to command.
Then, the Taiping Army was further rectified and issued various military rules and regulations. The most eye-catching one was that men and women divided the camps - men and women were separated. Even husbands and wife had to live in separate camps. Couples were prohibited from having sex and having dates in private. Once discovered, they were sentenced to beheading.
Min Zhengfeng, the Guangxi Admiral, who was originally stranded in Shilong Town and had no intention of going to Guiping to encircle and suppress the enemy, finally couldn't sit still after receiving the news and urged his troops to encircle and suppress the enemy. Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was built in the mountains and did not occupy the city, it was considered a country. This was either a joke or a joke!
In September, the whole of Guangxi was in chaos. Guangxi Admiral Min Zhengfeng encircled and suppressed the Taiping Army in Guiping. Chen Yagui took the opportunity to send troops around Xiangshan County, conquered Xiuren and Lipu counties, and the troops headed straight to Guilin, the boat army on Wujiang in Xijiang, Zhang Jiaxiang's troops in Nanning, Laibin's Liyuba, Taoba, Wang Yazhuang in Gui County and other Tiandihui armed forces in various places were moved one after another.
Guilin, Guangxi Governor's Office.
He received a series of urgent requests from flying Zhang from seven or eight prefectures and counties. Governor Zheng Zuchen was in a panic. He didn't know why the good situation that had been maintained suddenly changed, but he knew that he could no longer indulge or whitewash it, otherwise Guangxi would be in chaos!
Moreover, he also received news that the gentry and merchants in various prefectures and counties in Guangxi were dissatisfied with the local Chizhi's laissez-faire, and were dissatisfied with the fact that they concealed the truth about the chaos and even lost control of the public security in Guangxi. He recommended several representatives from prefectures and counties to go to Beijing to file a complaint from the sea.
Furthermore, next year is the year for the provincial examination. With the current public security situation, the provincial examination will inevitably be greatly affected. At that time, even if you want to hide it, you can't hide it.
After much thought, he drafted a memorial to the capital and asked the court to transfer troops to Guizhou to wipe out the bandits. After writing the memorial, he read it again and again, he hesitated for a while. He knew very well that as soon as the memorial was sent out, what would be the result of waiting for him? It would be light to demote, and if it was not a good cause, it would be dismissal.
He slowly put down the memorial and sighed. The Qing Dynasty has not been peaceful these years, and the provinces have been suffering from natural disasters. Not only does the national treasury have been empty, but Daoguang is getting older and he does not like to hear worries. In his private message, Mu Zhang'a, the chief military minister, had a good relationship with him, said clearly that the country's funds are regular and that they should not be used for details. Thieves who are flooded and drought should not be reported at the right time, and the emperor is worried about the holy concerns.
The reason why he concealed the drought in Guangxi and the bandits in Guangxi was torn up everywhere, whitewash the peace, not the bad news, but actually he had no choice but to report good news, so he wanted to embellish a few years and get out of this place of right and wrong, but he didn't expect that things would have reached such an uncontrollable level so quickly.
Just when he was hesitating, the governor of the Fubiao Zuoying, Tang Shenghuai, quickly stepped in to report: "Sir, Guiping, Min Junmen, was defeated."
Even Min Zhengfeng was defeated? Zheng Zuchen was shocked and asked quickly: "How are the casualties?"
"Sir, there are no high-ranking military officers casualties." Tang Shenghuai bowed slightly and said, "However, now Min Junmen retreated to Siwang and dared not attack rashly."
Even Min Zhengfeng was defeated. It seemed that this Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was really a big trouble. Zheng Zuchen sighed inwardly, waved his hand to retreat, and then calmed down and thought, if ordinary bandits were talking about it, it would be a matter of unstable security, but the nature of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was different. If you report it truthfully, you would definitely be dismissed! If you are not good, you may be punished.
After concentrating on his thoughts for a while, he picked up a pen and wrote another memorandum, directly impeaching Yi Zhizu, and indulging Yuan Qi to privately sell Western firearms, so that the Guangxi bandits gathered everywhere, and the disturbances were in slight changes. He also slightly changed the reply of Xunzhou Prefect Liu Jizu's investigation of selling Western firearms, and copied it and attached it to the subsequent.
Of course he didn't know that Yuan Qi was doing the trick behind his back, but he knew that regardless of whether this matter had anything to do with Yuan Qi, attacking Yi Zhizu and attacking Yuan Qi were his last life-saving straw. The reason was very simple. Mu Zhang'er and Yi Zhizu are already known to everyone in the world. If you pour this basin of dirty water on Yi Zhizu and Yuan Qi's heads, it will be dirty either. This will inevitably satisfy Mu Zhang'er, and the other party will definitely try his best to excuse him.
Guangzhou, Xiguan, Leiyuan, Changle Bookstore.
After reading the messy information in Guangxi, Yi Zhizu transferred the information to Bao Shichen casually, and laughed in his heart. Huang Dianyuan is really a talented person and is really beautiful. In this situation, it depends on how to hide the Guangxi officialdom! Once this lid is opened, it will definitely attract the attention of the world.
After reading the information, Bao Shichen shook his head and said, "There is no city or land yet, so he is eager to claim the title of King Ding. The shopkeeper is probably out of his mind this time. This Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is unlikely to become a climate. Moreover, since ancient times, there has been no religion. The Yellow Turban Army, the Five Dogs of Rice Sect, Taoism, Ming Cult, and White Lotus Sect. What kind of religion is this now? Christianity?"
Yi Zhizu nodded in agreement and said, "Mr. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is indeed difficult to achieve great things. Hong Huoxue was a scholar after all. Zhu Sheng assisted Taizu of Ming Dynasty with the nine-character strategy - "Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become king." It is very popular. Haven't he read it before?
