Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 742 Eight Banners Expedition
Under the instruction of General Wang "courage conquers everything", various departments worked together and finally equipped the Eight Banners with basic weapons for the expedition.

The date of the expedition was set on the second day of October. On this day, the "Shi Xian Shu" stated that it was appropriate to open toilets, install doors, and break ground.

Jia Liu felt that this day was not good, so he proposed to Laofu and Uncle Se that the expedition should be changed to the third day of October, because the third day is a good day, and everything is suitable.

In the end, Lao Fu said that the military situation was extremely urgent, and Anqing was about to be lost, and they must not be sent back on the grounds of feudal superstition.

There is no delay in going out!

What the old rich promised was also fulfilled. Yang Jingsu, the governor of Zhili, was rewarded by the decree for "suppressing the religious bandits and making great contributions to water control", and was reinstated as the governor of Zhili.

Fanwei, the prefect of Baoding, ranked first in the official department in this year's assessment. He was unanimously recommended by the former Zhili Governor General Wang, Zhili Chief Executive Yang Jingsu, and Official Minister A Siha. post.

After Lao Yang received the order, he wrote to the General Wang as soon as possible, asking for instructions on how to carry out the next stage of work in Zhili.

Jia Liu replied in his own handwriting: "Jia Gui Yang Sui."

This is the allusion of "Xiao Gui Cao Sui", which means that Xiao He, the minister of the early Han Dynasty, established the rules and regulations. After Xiao He died, Cao Shen succeeded him as the minister, and still followed the rules of Xiao He's life without any changes.

In fact, it is to let Lao Yang act according to the system he set before, and focus on large engineering projects as before, and will never run aground on these engineering projects that benefit the country and the people because of personnel transfers.

At present, the national key projects carried out in Zhili mainly include Beiyang Trade, Tianjin Port Construction, Military Industrial Park, Industrial Park, and Provincial (National) Road Project.

These national-level key projects are mainly carried out by Lao Yang, with the cooperation of Xu Ji, the governor of Tianjin, and the whole province must be invested.

Provincial-level key projects include farm-to-household distribution in Yongping, “customs clearance” in Shanhaiguan, sewer sanitation in various cities, construction of Zhili Bank, and integration of wages for civil servants in the province.

These projects are under the leadership of Fan Wei, the new chief minister, and Yang Zhi, the prefect of Yongping, cooperates.

The rest of the prefectural and county-level projects proposed by Jia Liu during his tenure as governor were under the responsibility of local officials and supervised by the province.

In terms of the army, the army was governed by Wan Chaoxing, the governor of Zhili, Ye Qing, the general soldier of Tianjin, and Demu, the general soldier of Suiyuan.

The first regiment of Li Mi and the second regiment of Liu Heyi, adapted from the Green Camp of the capital, did not go out, but still carried out the task of monitoring the capital nearby to ensure that there would be no changes in the Xiaoxiao in Beijing after the prince went out.

The two regiments were not under the control of Wan Chaoxing, the admiral of Zhili, but directly under the governor's office of Zhili, that is, the supervisor under the command of Lao Yang.

If an ominous event really happens, these two regiments will undertake the first wave of self-defense counterattack missions, buying time for other Zhili troops loyal to the general king.

The expansion of the situation is the beginning of the civil war.

In terms of the navy, the Dagu Kou Shui Camp was reorganized from Tige to the Beiyang Navy at the town level, commanded by Zamur, the most trusted assistant of General Wang.

Since most of the officers of the navy were selected by soldiers, and the 500 students transferred from Sichuan were enriched, and after a large-scale military training campaign, the overall appearance of the navy has been greatly improved compared with before, and the combat effectiveness has initially returned to the level of the Kangxi period.

It is to be able to go to sea to fight a dozen.

It is much stronger than the previous one that could only dangle in the sea.

The recruitment of recruits in the three towns of Tianjin has basically been completed, and most of the recruits have already arrived in the camp. Ye Qing, the general soldier of Tianjin, is now acting as Guan Pei.

The recruit camp of the three towns was built on the Machang River near the military industrial park. This place is located between Dagu Coastal Defense and Tianjin City. It is a Beijing-Tianjin barrier.

The locals also call this place Xiaozhan.

The recruits from the three towns of Baoding have recruited two towns so far, and the camp is located outside Baoding City.Part of the camp is the former superintendent’s camp, and the rest is expanded by Fanwei, the prefect of Baoding.

The candidates for the chief officer of the recruits in the six towns have not yet been confirmed.

The candidate for the chief officer of the six towns has a great relationship, so Jia Liu is thinking about it, and it will be decided after arriving at the front line of Huguang depending on the performance of the generals.

Jia Liu's second brother-in-law, Gao Delu, was recommended by Xu Ji, the governor of Tianjin, and is now promoted to Tianjin Daotai, equivalent to a provincial deputy official, who is in charge of related projects in Tianjin Port for his brother-in-law.

Gao Delu, who was born as a businessman, is very shrewd and does not have the decadence of a legitimate official. He can get along well with officials, businessmen, common people, and workers. Therefore, he has been praised by his brother-in-law many times since he started his work.

As long as he doesn't make big mistakes in the future, a duke might not be able to escape.

Before the expedition, in order to improve the morale of the army, Jia Liu ordered all the Eight Banners soldiers, including the clan's children, to write suicide notes to their families.

It means that if you don't break the thieves, you will never return them, and you will win absolute victory with absolute sacrifice.

As a result, the families of the soldiers who fought in the Eight Banners were wailing, especially the family members of the clan, who colluded with many parties, hoping that the court would allow their husbands and sons to return home.

Many princes and Fujin participated in it, and even some people from the prince's side went to intercede.

Similarly, Prince An's Uncle Se's place is also full of people. I don't know how many relatives come to visit in a day. I hope that Prince He Shuo'an can approve a note to let their relatives go home.

The old rich is under a lot of pressure. Chengjun Wang Hongjing, an old man, has colluded with a group of clans to put pressure on him, asking for more royal children to serve in the Military Aircraft Department. make.

The princes who were close to him before failed to choose the hat king. Although they knew that it had nothing to do with Fu Zhongtang, they were unavoidably dissatisfied with Fu Zhongtang, so they took the opportunity to complain.

Taking advantage of the Deshengmen suppression incident to make a fuss, some radicals even suggested that the clan should go it alone.

In desperation, the old rich could only come and hope that the six sons and virtuous brothers could let some of the clan go home, of course, mainly the yellow belts.

For this reason, I specially brought a list, there are about a hundred people on it, and they belong to those who have extremely strong family connections and can talk to the princes of the princes.

"Brother knows who I am. Brother, since I became an official, I have never gone through the back door, and I have never allowed others to go through my back door!"

Jia Liu is very disgusted with Lao Fu's behavior. If an official has no principles, what kind of official is he?

Lao Fu also knew that this was not a good thing, but in order to reduce the pressure on his body, he still hoped that the six sons would be accommodating and not let go too much, just the hundred or so people on the list will do.

Jia Liu glanced at the list and found that some people on it had already been executed by him, so his attitude was even more resolute, and he flatly refused: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! Please tell the family members of these people, and say that they are all dead!"

When Lao Fu heard what this was saying, he also became angry: "Didn't you make people cry to death?"

"It's better to let them cry than to let the world cry!"

Jia Liu really didn't discuss it at all, and even threatened Lao Fu that if he dared to do any human affairs here, he would simply quit.

In this Qing Dynasty, whoever has the ability will lead the troops to the south!

"you are vicious!"

The old rich walked away in a huff, with nowhere to vent his anger.

What can I do?
No matter how bad the devils are, it's better than the sky in the Qing Dynasty that is about to collapse.

At this juncture, no one can lead the army except this kid.

Prince An is fine, but the question is whether he dares to hand over the army to the opponent.

Similarly, Prince An did not dare to hand over the army to his Fu Zhongtang party members.

In desperation, he had no choice but to discuss with the princes and give one or two places for ministers of military affairs.

Slow down the situation.

No matter how you say it, let’s talk about the big things after leveling the Han people in the south.

At that time, there will really be a commotion, and the meat will also rot in the pot.

The Great General Wang's expedition is carried out according to the standard of the emperor's expedition.

On the day of the expedition, all the kings in Beijing, Baylor, Beizi, Gong, etc. and ministers above the second rank will all see them off.

According to this specification, on the day when Jia Liu set off for the expedition, all the princes and ministers of the capital gathered at the Meridian Gate, and then he rode out of the Meridian Gate surrounded by guards. the cheers of the people.

Obviously, the Great General Wang didn't get much cheers this time, but received a lot of cursing eyes.

But Jia Liu didn't mind this, and there was no one else who was not hated except trash.

Outside the gate of Desheng, tens of thousands of disciples of the Eight Banners are divided into various banners, and if you look from east to west, you can't see the end at a glance.

Regardless of whether these Eight Banners disciples are willing to go to war or not, at this moment, there will be a sense of military might invisibly.

Prince Yongzhen did not come to see him off, probably because of the heir apparent.

The hall officials from the Military Aircraft Department and the Sixth Department are basically all present.

Three cannon shots flew past.

The trumpeter raised his long horn high, and the sound of "woo woo" pierced directly inside and outside the capital.

Under the glare of the sun, two large flags fluttered in the wind, with five characters embroidered on one side: "Grand General Fuyuan" and five characters "Prince He Shuorui" on the other.

The Zhenghuang Wangzhu, which represents the standard of the Son of Heaven, is high above, and the long banner with the four characters "Serve the country with all sincerity" embroidered on the side flutters in the wind.

Uncle Se, Prince An served the wine in person, and Queenie, Minister of Rites, read out the call to action loudly.

Seeing the majesty of the prince, A Siha, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "My lord, if a man has done meritorious service on the battlefield, if he wins and returns to the court in triumph, the emperor will definitely reward him."

Before A Siha finished speaking, Jia Liu frowned and said to him: "Why are you saying these words to me? Is this king going out this time just to get the emperor's reward!"

After hearing this, Asha was very embarrassed and didn't know how to deal with it.

Jia Liu looked around at the princes and ministers who were seeing him off, and said in a deep voice: "This king has been determined to serve the Qing Dynasty since he was a child, so he took part in the Baitang'a examination held by the imperial court, and vowed to be a pioneer official of the Eight Banners, and to be a man who is useful to the Qing Dynasty." good man!

What is a good boy?
A good man should die on the battlefield!

What's the point of dying in a safe bed at home and being buried in a coffin by your descendants?
Ladies and gentlemen, this king believes that wrapping the body of a good man in the leather of a war horse for burial is the most proud thing for a good man! "

As soon as the words fell, he was immediately praised by Asha, Queenie and other party members.

A Siha's expression was even more exaggerated: "My lord really deserves to be the best man in my Qing Dynasty!"

Others more or less affirmed it for the sake of face. After all, Guizi Liu's expedition this time was for the country and society of the Qing Dynasty.

Old Fu felt how the words were so familiar, he understood after a while, and secretly tugged Jia Liu with an awkward look on his face: "You don't need to say anything if you don't know how to speak, why did you say the words of Ma Yuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty? As clueless as you?"

"What are you talking about? Could it be that because Ma Yuan mentioned the leather shroud, I can't say it! You can only say that Ma Yuan went to the same place with me, you can't say that I'm imitating him!"

Jia Liu looked angry, whipped his horsewhip, and ordered the front officer: "Open the way!"

"Great General Wang Youling, let's go? The army is going!"

"The general Wang Youling ordered the army to go!"

"Guardian barracks, let's go!"

"Tiger Gun Battalion, let's go!"

"Shanpuying, let's go!"

"Baoyi guards the barracks, let's go!"

"."

Accompanied by the sound of "dong dong" drums, teams of the Eight Banners immediately marched from Deshengmen to the distance.

Crowds are crowded, horseshoes are bursting.

Swords and guns are like a forest, and flags are flying.

45 years later, the Eight Banners children once again set out on a large scale.

The difference is that the last time their ancestors went to the distant Mobei battlefield, this time they went to the south.
