Chapter 205 Jiang Ning

After all, Han Nuri won a small victory, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a tragic victory. Although the Xining Town soldiers of the Western Route Army suffered a great loss under their command, since Xu Shichang arrived, he added two thousand rifles. Although he took advantage of the night to take advantage of the night's night and guided by the prophet Allah, based on decades of experience living here, it was determined that the night was dark and windy, which was very good for night attacks. The results of robbing food and killing the enemy were quite good, but even though the other party was unprepared, he suffered a lot of damage. More than a thousand warriors fell into the other party's camp, and eight or nine hundred horses were also lost, which were all food. In the past few months, it was with the horse that was caring for the soldiers, and stuffed with fodder, that he barely provided the lives of more than 70,000 people on his side.

Now that this battle has brought morale a lot, Han Nuri is not a fool, he can see the hidden worries behind this. Ma Kuangkuang's new sect has lost his troops and lost people, but he is proud of his own battle and has been so cowardly that he has been doing for half a year. Now he is full of morale, and someone has food, and the other party will have thoughts in his eyes. It is really elusive. When the horse team galloped past the street mosque in the morning, the other party was almost going to kill, Han Nuri couldn't help but shudder.

He was right. Ma Kuangkuang was thinking about the batch of grain he snatched back that day. Since ancient times, sectarian struggles have been tolerated by all means. It is the most cruel war in the world. For the illusory gods, the foolish new maps can give everything. Ma Kuangkuang had long been ruined by his subordinates such as Ma Chenglin and Liu Sifu, and was planning to take this opportunity to revitalize his reputation as the leader of the new sect.

This was what Xu Shichang and Zhao Bingjun thought of at the same time. He firmly controlled the amount of grain stored in the Western Route Army in ten days. The traffic of the Western Route Army was not as convenient as the imperial envoy in the east. It was not easy to fly the airship once. Since the radio station started, he relaxed the amount of grain stored in the Western Route Army to ten days. Although it was ten days, it was calculated based on the amount of 40,000 people in the Western Route Army. If the 150,000 bandits were supplied, it would be bottomed out in two or three days. At that time, they would either be hungry or come out to grab it. Xu Shichang was waiting for him.

What's more, the bandits in the city are not a monolithic group. Hui people and Salar people, old sects, and new sects used to be life and death under the pressure of the outside world. They were about to die together. What's the point of fighting each other? But now they are different. Now they seem to have a little vitality, just like a group of people waiting for the waterline to flood each other's noses in a flood, they suddenly find a small boat or a high ground in front of them. Anyone with a little desire to survive will fight for all the remaining profits to fight for the right to live, not to mention that these people still have chilling religious differences between them.

Xu Shichang also has a basis for saying that this group of people is not a solid piece of law. Dong Fuxiang, who is in charge of the North Road, was born as a rebellious bandit gang. He was also a rebellious bandit gang. The first thing he suggested that Xu Shichang slightly control the frequency of airship patrol and alert. In the gaps that were occasionally deliberately left, someone in the bandit gang contacted his powerful generals Ma Anliang and Ma Fulu. The specific content was very rebellious and he had to collude with the Northern Road Army to cooperate in the fight. Dong Fuxiang repeatedly guaranteed and told the news of the traffic between the two sides to show openness, so Xu Shichang could only trust and use it.

Dong Fuxiang's troops also saved the food for three days and then replenished it after it was finished. In addition, he was born in the rebellion and surrender of the man. I don't know how many people hate him in the man. Of course, he is not stupid. The future of this sure victory battle is much better than the future of following these poor bandits to create rebellions with no future. Those people just wanted to use him, so he naturally had no reason to rebel. This is also the reason why Xu Shichang dared to continue using him.

At the same time, Xu Shichang ordered that the original actions be unaffected and continued to move forward and shrink the encirclement. At the same time, the machine gun airships that were rushed to build in the Lanzhou camp were also completed. After several tests, he carried two machine guns, a large amount of water and ammunition, and could maintain a continuous attack on the ground for one stick of incense. This efficiency was actually not high. However, considering that the returning bandits in the city had no choice but to redeem this monster, Xu Shichang still had two ships reorganized, and it was expected that they would be able to rush to the headquarters to participate in the battle in three or two days. It has been siege for half a year, and it is time to close the net.

After a series of deployments, Xu Shichang decided not to continue to be siege. After these three days, depending on the situation in the city, Dong Fuxiang's troops will be arranged to attack! What is waiting for is the food that is eaten, and whether people will be in trouble will be determined if they return within two or three days. At that time, the commander-in-chief will make a move to sweep the holes. Xu Shichang passed the orders one by one, and heavy troops from all over the Qinghai and Gansu gathered together to stand by. These are all expected things.

When I saw Xu Shichang's war situation report from the headquarters on the morning of the next day, I couldn't help but nod. It was not urgent to suppress the bandits. Although the 180,000 army was spending more than 30,000 taels of silver a day on the Western Front, I couldn't hurry. After all, the enemy army had 150,000 people. If I took a small loss, I would give it a try. This was not Xu Shichang's style.

The large-scale cavalry war on the desert plain sounds heroic, but after this battle, it will be a terrible victory. If there are tens of thousands of casualties, the whole country will be greatly shocked. Now the whole country is looking for development and military reform is being implemented, and I will never bear such shock. I would rather he be slow and steady than he will fight happily. This is also because of Xu Shichang. After all, he was born in Hanlin and sent troops to release horses and used him as the future chief of staff. Judging from his report of more than a thousand words, the army completely quelled the bandits and turmoil, which is only two or three months. After a few half a year of appeasement of public security, a civil servant will be arranged to give birth to a career and comfort it. The next year, the land will be calmed down.

As soon as I put down my heart hanging in the west, I immediately returned to the people's livelihood in Shanghai. In the afternoon, I arranged to go to the observatory of Xujiahui Catholic Church, which can provide weather forecasts for the next two days for fishermen and local residents around Shanghai. Although there are often some mistakes, this is the first weather forecast in Shanghai and even the country, which is a precedent.

I will meet with the leader of the Shanghai business community tomorrow morning, and in the afternoon, I will wind along the Yangtze River to the west and head straight to Jiangning. I still have some effort to do there. Shanghai's main positioning is in industry and commerce. Jiangsu Province is the top priority in culture and education. Jiangnan has always been full of humanities. How to do this political and personnel arrangement without affecting the cultural and educational atmosphere in Jiangnan, I need to be very cautious in every move. I arranged a trip to Nanjing with a few people that afternoon.

The first place must be Confucius Temple. The Temple of Wenxuanwang, the Great Master of the Great Sage, at this time, was the same as the Confucius Temple in Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu Province, but its structure was far from comparable to the so-called Confucius Temple in later generations, which was mixed with the smell of dust and urine of various animals and the black water of ink in the Qinhuai River. At this time, Confucius Temple was rebuilt by Zeng Guofan after recapturing the city of Tianjing, which was occupied by Changmao in the eighth year of Tongzhi. The layout followed the old system and had a great status in the hearts of Jiangnan literati.

Later, I had to visit the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum. The eastern suburbs are the most beautiful place in this city, and the tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang, which is true and false, which is convenient for me to carry forward the theory of division of the three stages of Chinese history. The Ming and Qing dynasties actually followed the same system and was the third imperial stage after the Qin and Han Dynasties and Tang and Song dynasties. Whether from the pacification of the people or from my plan to integrate the Manchu and Han in the future, the status here is very important.

Next, we need to put forward some instructions on the government arrangements after the personnel transfer in Jiangsu. Jiangnan is the easiest place to prosper. Since ancient times, it has been the economic heart of the entire country and the most prosperous place in the Shilin. Now both functions must be strengthened. Liu Kun, a Hunan Army general, was born as a general, and it was not easy to bring Jiangnan to this level as a military general. It was also highly praised when he was received yesterday. However, with the progress of military reform in the future, the military and political role of the governor must be strengthened and the civil affairs role of the civil affairs will be weakened.

Therefore, for this group of governors and governors from various places that rose with the rise of the Hunan and Huai Army, we must gradually screen and replace them. Civil affairs should not be dominated by strong officers. Administration and military affairs will always be separated in the future. There is no need to doubt the loyalty of the old ministers in front of us, but some people have problems with their grasp of the current situation and their understanding of the new policies of the country. Liu Kunyi is pretty good, and some local governors from the Hunan and Huai Army are to put it bluntly, and I have heard of them that local emperors have long heard of them.

Liu Kunyi still has to remain unmoved, which is a typical example of the old military forces. Even if it is bad, I can't move. I still have to focus on the national military reform. The governor's position cannot be maintained for the time being. This is also a compromise in my helplessness. Most of the green camps in the country are controlled by these veteran generals from the Hunan and Huai Army. It is very dangerous to let them go rashly. A new person like Lu Chuanlin was transferred to the governor, which was also a helpless arrangement for me to pave the way for military reform. This level cannot be explained clearly, but we need to find another reason to explain to the local officials and civilians. Next, there will be currency reform, which is a problem that is even more troublesome than military reform. Maybe the administration of officials will have to have big problems, and some people will make a fortune through this thing.

Therefore, based on the considerations of military reform and currency reform, the official administration has recently been to beat the officials from all over the world. Now, Liu Kunyi is arranged to return to Ning first. The officials involved in the official administration case in Jiangsu last year have to mention Jiangning overnight and kill a group of people while I am here. At the same time, people should not pay too much attention to this subject, so they have to deal with such a "typical integrity" as Qu Hongji...

Just thinking about this, while discussing Liang Qichao, my mind gradually became clear. I used what to do and what to say, and what to say. All sentences were extremely particular. As an emperor, the supreme ruler of a country, every word and action would bring major shocks to the following. How could he do whatever he wants? After thinking about it, he was discouraged. Jiangsu was almost one of the provinces that didn’t have to worry about the least. When I arrived, I would still blew this huge wind, and what other provinces were? I almost didn’t dare to think about it, and I could only act in vain.

When Liang Qichao heard this thought, Liang Qichao saw me depressed and smiled and said, "The emperor is too eager to do everything. How can the world be so easy to have a great political situation? In ancient times, what happened when the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were said? I thought it was a mistake, and I was frozen to death and starved to death. I have been in the Qing Dynasty for more than 200 years. After more than a dozen dynasties, there are naturally many accumulated problems in the officialdom. The emperor also said that the Qing Dynasty and the former Ming Dynasty actually inherited the same system.

In the Ming Dynasty, after the past four or five hundred years of atmosphere, there were naturally all kinds of things in the officialdom. In my opinion, since the Qing Dynasty invaded the Western Barbarians and shook the foundation of the country, the administration of officials has been boosted. After all, a group of officials who knew the sufferings of the people came up. When the emperor came to rule, the people's wisdom has been opened. Knowing the gap between China and the Western Barbarians, the emperor repeatedly sued and issued a new policy to promote the new policy. Officials from all over the country are willing to do things and seek progress is much better than in the past."

I heard his long-term explanation, and no matter what, I felt much calmer, and smiled and said, "You are talking about it. When I met Liu Kunyi, the governor of Jiang yesterday, he also mentioned the issue of administration. He said that the matter in Jiangsu was really something that he wanted to do but didn't manage well and had no place to do. The Qing Dynasty should learn the legislative system of Western barbarians and promulgate the world. Whatever the matter should be handled. Although our dynasty has the laws and regulations of the Qing Dynasty, there are insufficient items and some things are not detailed enough. For example, some administrative matters have no clear limits at all, and they are only maintained by the practices of the past years. How can this be done?

This is a great advice. If this is the case, I think if Qu Hongji is sick, he will definitely have an order, and Lu Chuanlin will not suffer any losses, which will lead to something that happened later. As soon as Liu Kun said, I remembered the errands that first handed you. First, I wanted to gather my previous warnings and decrees, and second, I also wanted to make a change to the laws and regulations of the Qing Dynasty. Speaking of this, Liu Kunyi's advice said that he would add more items to the laws and regulations of the Qing Dynasty and build a great law that tolerate everything in the world. I wonder what a big project this is? I have been at the top for twenty-two years, and there are another twenty-two years, forty-four years, and I am afraid that it will not be completed-"

Looking at the fascinated expression on Liang Qichao's face, he obviously agreed with Liu Kunyi's opinion and continued to mention: "Actually, I thought about it last night. We should promulgate special laws from all walks of life in different categories, change them to the Qing Dynasty constitutional laws, which are the mother laws, and then several sub-laws are born, such as administrative laws, existing national defense laws, industrial and commercial laws, and some labor security laws in the future, etc...." Nodding to Liang Qichao, "Zhuo Ru, now you know what the purpose is to ask you to build that social research office?"

Liang Qichao nodded in a slight understanding. I laughed and said, "One of them talked about government affairs yesterday. If they can speak, let them talk. If the sky falls, people should speak. I don't do the same thing as the road. Another thing is that those scholars, if they ask for a name, are very afraid of people. Why do they follow you to get a labor security law for me first, which is also a labor security guarantee for industrial and commercial law. These people, from a big perspective, are hard to talk about, but they really love the people in small aspects. I just want to use their talents... Of course, these people are prone to extremes, and maybe they can come up with a harsh law for me. What are you doing with Liang Zhuo? I told you that it is a check-up, labor security, and business owners must also protect me, otherwise who will run a business? Corrupt scholars are prone to have a problem called being rich and loving the poor. This is also a problem. Too much is worse than too much."

Only then did Liang Qichao realize that I assigned him such a task in the past two days. After my mind was revealed, I immediately realized it. I patted my head and smiled and said, "I am now really understanding. I am not afraid of the emperor's punishment. Although I didn't show it on my face yesterday, I was still feeling uncomfortable because I couldn't accompany the emperor forever-"

I raised my hand and interrupted him, "Accompanying the king is like a tiger, there is a clear lesson in ancient times. Are you Liang Zhuoru afraid? Haha--" said seriously, "There is another job. There is news from the UK that the foreigner Marconi has applied for a patent for radio. There is one, I have improved the radio transmission and reception reports. I want this false reputation to ask Nie Shicheng to come to the United Nations Office of the Military Department to report it. Well, I remember that there is a person named Ximen Cong, just send him to the UK to apply for a patent. The person who is not concerned about it now and will regret it in the future."

"I received the order-" Seeing that I was talking about the serious matter, Liang Qichao also smiled and wrote it down with his heart.

It was no words at night. The next day I met the leader of the local chamber of commerce in Shanghai. Naturally, I was very happy, and the local scholars and people returned home. At my call, I also raised more than 500,000 taels of silver to provide start-up funds for Nanyang Public School. This is a benefit to the local area. I also received the inscription and wrote the school name.

In the afternoon, the car driver was at the farewell of officials and civilians. The Imperial Guard guarded the car driver heading westward and heading towards Jiangning.

The winding Yangtze River and the Yellow River in the north are the two longest rivers of this empire. The one in the north nurtures the tenacious personality of this nation, and the one in the south nurtures the nation's literary spirit. How can the nations nurture these two rivers be willing to be second-class citizens of the world forever?

At first, the activity center of this nation, namely Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi, was less than the entire territory. It slowly expanded, swallowing up the moons of the south, expelling the Hu in the north, driving the Dongyi in the east, fighting the Xirong in the west, and integrating a lot of foreign blood with a broad mind during the war, which made the Chinese nation today. The two political centers of the north and south of the Ming Dynasty, the two places in the north and south, even in the Qing Dynasty, Nanjing was the top priority. Jiang Du has always been the most important governor, and he is not distinguished from the direct governor.

Six years after I came to this world, I finally set foot on this familiar and unfamiliar land again.

Entering Nanjing City through Longtan through Taiping Gate, the city has been under martial law. In order to fully demonstrate the achievements of the new policies in recent years, Jiangsu has saved great efforts to decorate Taiping. Jinling was originally a place where the world is beautiful, and now this meticulous work makes people linger.

But I am not a tourist, I am the supreme of this land. The first thing the living supreme came was to go to Confucius Temple to worship the supreme who had been dead for more than two thousand years. This great man more than two thousand years ago became the spiritual emperor and supreme leader of this country after his death. Although I was performing rituals, I was also completing a inheritance. His doctrine was from more than two thousand years ago, and of course it could not be 100% in line with the reality of these two thousand years later. However, he is by no means useless. His cleansing of people's hearts, morality, the ideological system of the people, and the overall constraints on society are incomparable to the Western system. It is precisely because of him and his thoughts that this nation can continuously complete the historical heritage of three thousand years. I looked at his statue in the Dacheng Hall and felt a lot of emotion.

But things change, and the world is not a country after all. National stability is one thing, and hard work is another. If a country wants to develop, it must inject the nation with the concept of the prey on the weak and the sense of national pride inspired by the glorious history of this nation.

Looking at the officials in the hall who were pious or perfunctory, I respectfully kowtowed to Confucius like a person who burned incense and led the crowd to stand up. In this place, I didn't want to say too much, and smiled at the officials with a kind look on my face.

The rituals of viewing the Qinhuai scenery and worshiping the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum are indeed grand, but they are more for outsiders to see. Most officials in Jiangsu Province have relaxed. It seems that the young emperor is only coming to Jiangning for a trip, and he completely forgot that the emperor had just issued an order a few days ago to make some rotations to the officials in Jiangsu.

Only Liu Kun knew that a murder was coming.

Back at the Governor's Office in Liangjiang, officials above the fifth rank in the province were gathered, and my lecture was about to begin. Looking at the local officials in front of me, my overall beginning was still very calm: "Jiangning Mansion, a very auspicious name, Jiangnan Qingning. When I arrived in Jiangning, I saw that all the ministers were fulfilling their duties. I was very comforted. You are the guarantee of Jiangnan Qingning..." Looking up at Kou Liancai, he looked embarrassed and couldn't help but look at me. Outside the door, he could also faintly hear the restrained shouts of the guards and the noises of the people.

Who is ignorant of death? I frowned and stopped talking and looked at Kou Liancai.

"Your Majesty, it's Qu Hongji who broke into the yamen." Kou Liancai carefully approached me and whispered.

I looked at it in surprise and forgot to let him take the bus. The original intention was to let him be ordered at home, and he did not say that he was guilty, so he should be able to accompany him according to his grade.

At this time, all the officials seemed to know what was happening outside the door, and they looked like they were smiling. I suddenly understood that Qu Hongji had been slandered. He had a good official and thought that there were many people who had offended him. I guess the officials of Jiangning Prefecture who had notified him to deliberately punish him.

But now that things have come, he should have been waiting at home, but unexpectedly, such a person came here to drive. Pig! I held back my annoyance and turned cold and said loudly: "Is it Qu Hongji? Let him come in! He is not an official, why don't he let him accompany him?!"
Chapter completed!
