Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 997 I am old, the president is too!
In Xi'an, as the New Year is approaching, both banner people and Han people are buying new year's goods.

Buy more if you have money, and buy less if you don’t have money. Fish and meat always have to be cut. After all, if adults don’t eat it, children will eat it too.

All year long, the New Year is just once, no matter how difficult the life is, there must always be some meat and oil on the table on New Year's Eve, otherwise this year will be too miserable.

It can be said that the whole city of Xi'an is full of New Year's atmosphere, the streets and alleys are full of smiling pedestrians, and the traffic is so busy.

But inside the Shaanxi-Gansu Governor's Yamen, which is located in the whole city, there is no atmosphere that is about to celebrate the New Year, but there is a sense of coolness from the inside to the outside.

In the Governor's luxurious and over-standard office, the Governor can be heard scolding his mother from afar.

The kind that jumps and yells.

"Mother Xipi, he's a devil who bullies people too much. He transferred me to Sichuan to be the governor. He doesn't care! Didn't he want to transfer me from Xi'an so that he can send someone to mess with me!

Damn it, I don't think this kid is loyal at all, he's trying to trick me before the ink on the contract is dry, what a villain, what a lonely husband! "

I can't help but be annoyed, the third article of the treaty with the three provinces that Guiziliu signed with himself was that the reform government should not go beyond the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu to transfer personnel in the three provinces.

It's all right now, the devil who became the emperor turned his face against Liu, and asked the governor of Shanxi, E Bao, to be the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and asked him Le Erjin to go to Sichuan to be the governor. Isn't this obviously going to cause trouble!

How did Yongzheng deal with Nian Gengyao back then?

It's like withdrawing!

However, the decree calling for Le Erjin to step down as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu did not reach Xi'an. The bodyguard who conveyed the decree was detained in Shanxi by the Shanxi Chief Envoy Sulder who was in charge of postal communication affairs, and then sent people to rush there. Xi'an notified Le Erjin of the news first, which means asking "the governor to make a quick decision."

The reason why Su De secretly detained the guards of the imperial edict behind the back of Shanxi Governor E Bao was because he and Le Erjin were both gangsters who grew up in the alley.

At the beginning, it was Surde who urged Shanxi governor Ebao to form an alliance with Shaanxi and Gansu, intending to take advantage of Qianlong's loss of power and the opportunity of the devil's six desires to win the championship, to maximize the benefits for the three provinces.

It was also Surde who represented Shanxi to Xiangyang to participate in the Hundred Officials Clan Conference.

In fact, it is right to take advantage of the insufficient prestige of the central government and when the court is in conflict, it is right for the local governments to hold together for warmth.

The problem is that the three provinces chose the wrong opponent at the wrong time.

It was they who completely underestimated the power of the Empire Destruction Dragon from Shanxi.

It was originally intended to turn Guizi Liu into Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, but I didn't expect this kid to go directly to Chongzhen.

At the Provincial Army Reorganization Conference held at Wushengguan, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Shanxi provinces only got the designation of two armies, which made Le Erjin very angry.

After a little thought, Guizi Liu had no good intentions. In order not to destroy the internal unity of the three provinces, he graciously gave up the designation of one army to Shanxi, and Shaanxi and Gansu only occupied one army in name.

In private, Lao Le quickly began to expand his army.

No way, who let the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion, the most elite army in the Northwest, be taken away by Devil Six.

It's not that Lao Le didn't send people to do the ideological work of the admiral Baoning of the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion and the generals below, hoping that they can pull the team back.

They even threatened that if the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Battalion did not return, the families of officers and soldiers who stayed in Shaanxi-Gansu would be in danger.

Guess what Boning said?

Bao Ning said: "Go back and tell the Governor-General that since the founding of the People's Republic, our Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp has fought the Ming army, the bandits, Wu Sangui's rebels, and also the Eight Banners soldiers. As for the Governor-General, we have also killed one. "

He fought the Eight Banners, and he beat the Eight Banners very badly.

At that time, Wang Fuchen killed the Shaanxi-Gansu Green Camp, the governor of Shanxi Province, Mo Luo.

This is tantamount to telling Le Erjin that you can touch our family members, but we can also touch you.

Hearing Bao Ning's reply, Le'er was very angry, and really didn't dare to touch the family members of the Green Camp. There are still many Green Camp soldiers in Shaanxi-Gansu territory. opposite.

Secondly, the family members of the Green Camp were really moved, and the tens of thousands of elite soldiers would not fight with him.

The third reason is that he has no reason to do it, after all, he has already surrendered to the Reform Devil VI in name.

The fourth is that there are no soldiers in hand and lack of confidence.

In order to increase his confidence and strengthen his own strength, Le Erjin used an army number given by Guizi Liu to vigorously reorganize the army, and formed the Ninth Army with a strength of more than [-] troops.

At the same time, the 1500 Eight Banners soldiers originally stationed in Mancheng of Ningxia, the 1300 Eight Banners soldiers stationed in Mancheng of Liangzhou, the 900 Eight Banners soldiers stationed in Mancheng of Tongguan, and the 1400 Eight Banners soldiers stationed in Mancheng of Zhuanglang were merged with the Manchu soldiers of Xi'an to form a pure The Northwest Eight Banners Garrison composed of bannermen.

In addition, a large number of recruits were recruited from the people to form the Shaanxi-Gansu Self-Defense Force.

It is also an army establishment.

The two newly created armies belonged to the "private army", and Leerjin was responsible for the money and food expenses. Therefore, Leerjin was under great financial pressure. In the second half of the year, he borrowed more than 600 million taels from the private sector at high interest rates.

In order to obtain greater support, Lao Le also sent people to work with Ili General Sonom Cering, Ulia Sutai General Cheng Gunzabu, Khobd Counselor Zarafon'a, Kulun Minister of Affairs Le Bao, and Xining Minister Huiling contacted.

These five are all from authentic old man backgrounds, and their troops are also considerable. If all of them can unite around Leerjin to form the Northwest Group, the Northwest Army that Leerjin has high hopes for will be as high as seven to eight armies. Nearly 20.

With this strength, he can definitely challenge Guizi Liu's Central Army.

It's just that the secret contact between the military expansion and the five ministers, and the plan to jointly build a self-defense circle in the Northwest is still in progress, so Guizi Liu started to play tricks on Lao Le.

In case Ebao, the governor of Shanxi, could not withstand the temptation of the high position of the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and insisted on being the governor, then Shanxi would obviously be separated from the Northwest Army.

Shaanxi Governor Bi Yuan, as a staunch supporter of Lao Le, certainly did not want Lao Le to fall, so he asked, "What do you plan to do?"

"How to do?"

Lao Le snorted, and gave a clear answer: "This disorderly order will never be obeyed by Shaanxi and Gansu!"

"Guizi Liu led his main force out of Shanhaiguan to march eastward. He couldn't take care of himself. How dare he fight on two fronts? He is really not afraid that our army will come out of Tongguan and kill him!"

The person who spoke was Lao Le's confidant, Ge Biao, who led troops to capture and kill General Fu Liang of Xi'an that day. At this time, Lao Le had been promoted by Lao Le to be the admiral of the new Shaanxi-Gansu Self-Defense Army.

The former Deputy Commander of the Tongguan Eight Banners Garrison, now the Admiral of the Northwest Eight Banners Garrison, Se Leng suddenly said: "My lord, if Guizi Liu is defeated outside the pass, should we make Hongshang the emperor?"

"What qualifications does Hongshang have to be emperor?"

Bi Yuan thought that even if Hongshang defeated Guiziliu outside the pass, he would not be qualified to become a great treasure, and he would never get his turn no matter what.

Shaanxi chief envoy Yang Mingyang hurriedly asked Futai: "Then who is the emperor?"

Who should be the emperor, Bi Futai really had no idea for a while, the main reason is that Guizi Liu was not defeated, it seems a bit early to think about this.

Other officials were very interested in this. Some said that they could establish the heirs of Yongzheng, and some said that they could establish the heirs of Kangxi. You and I each said who is qualified.

Noisy.

"If you want me to say that Guizi Liu is really defeated, we don't support that Hongshang. It's better to make Qu Fuyan Shenggong the emperor."

The person who said this was Xia Mingqiu, a scholar in Shaanxi.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone burst into laughter, which made Xia Xuezheng a little embarrassed, and simply said: "If you can't do it, Mr. Yan Sheng, let's find a descendant of Zhu Ming and make him emperor."

"."

After a brief silence, the roar of laughter in the office was louder than before.

Le Erjin also laughed at Xia Xuezheng's proposal, and shook his head slightly, not intending to say anything to the sour material.

At this time, Le Bao, another confidant of Le Erjin, the admiral of the Ninth Army who was born in Manzhouzheng Hongqi, suddenly looked at the governor, and said firmly: "Our soldiers are the only ones who follow the governor!"

Ok?
Everyone's heart moved, even the number one scholar Bi Futai was shocked.

Ge Biao, who was belatedly aware of something, seemed to understand something, hurriedly stood up and clasped his fists at the governor: "There is no one who can rule the world in this life, but the governor!"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes! Your Excellency the Governor's merits are in the northwest, and your benefits are in the country. In the current turmoil of the court, I hope that the Governor-General will put an end to false edicts, rebuild the government, nurture talents and benefit the people, and use the whole country and the country!"

Shaanxi chief envoy Yang Mingyang actually knelt down to the governor while speaking, apparently he was trying to persuade him to come in.

This Bi Futai was really shocking, but at this time, the Governor-General laughed, and while stopping Yang Fantai who was about to kneel down, he stroked his beard and said: "Everyone, don't harm the Governor, the emperor will kill you!" Er Jin doesn't dare to be the president, but what do you guys think of Ben Du as a great president?"
