Cutting 1719

Chapter 626

The sun was just rising, and the slightly glaring sunlight shone on Hu Xiaomao's face, as if it had been dyed with a layer of gold, and also showed the fluff on his lips, which seemed a little immature.

Hu Xiaomao was reclining on the haystack at this time, with a grass root in his mouth. He watched the soldiers in black clothes and gray trousers practicing on the school field in the distance, with a little envy in his eyes. But it seemed that he remembered something again, and he was a little more sentimental.

"Xiao Mao, you son of a bitch, why are you hiding here? Your brother told you to go away!"

A soldier in black clothes and gray trousers came from a distance, he threw a pebble on Hu Xiaomao's face, and laughed loudly: "Well, you son of a bitch, you don't even know I'm here Well?"

Hu Xiaomao glanced at the soldier, ignoring the pained face, but staring at the soldier seriously.

"Brother, is the Dayan Army really gone in the future?"

"You son of a bitch, does it have anything to do with you?"

The soldier named Zhang Dachun sneered, he threw the stone in his hand on the ground, and then he also lay down on the haystack, and squeezed out a sentence from his throat, "I have had enough of this kind of turtle life Hey, it’s better to find a mother-in-law to have a baby than throw your life here.”

Hu Xiaomao choked slightly, something inexplicable appeared in his heart, but the words came to his lips, but he didn't know how to say them.

For him, the Dayi Army is not only a place he longs to join, but also a home to raise him.

The Dayi Army in the early years was not the same as it is now. After all, most of the Dayi Army led by Liu Ruhan had been defeated in the previous war. After Chen Daoxian took charge of the Dayi Army, the original troops only occupied a small part. , the rest were recruited by Chen Daoxian, and Hu Xiaomao and his brother Hu Damao joined the Great Rebel Army at this time.

At that time, Hu Damao had just reached his full age and was able to join the Dayi Army, while Hu Xiaomao was only seven years old, so he could only join the Dayi Army as a handyman. The food for the whole army, besides burning fires all day long, is to watch the training of the Dayi Army.

Nine years passed like this, and the Day Rebel Army came to Lhasa all the way from Xi'an. At this time, Hu Xiaomao was already 16 years old. He is also begging Shangguan that Hu Xiaomao can really enter the Dayi Army at that time.

However, with the arrival of Ning Zuyi, the minister of affairs stationed in Tibet, all of this is naturally impossible, and even the Dayi Army is about to become history-Ning Zuyi has issued an order to reorganize the Dayi Army, and now the registered The 4000-strong Great Rebel Army will be disbanded, and each soldier will be given 50 silver dollars to retire from the army, which can be transferred to armed farms and armed ranches in Tibet.

If you still want to continue to serve in the army, you need to register through official channels and join the national defense force, but you may not be able to stay in Tibet, or you may be assigned to other stations.

As far as Hu Xiaomao is concerned, he is not willing to do any of them. He hopes to wear a black homemade military uniform, carry an old Hanyang-made musket or even a bird gun used by the Qing army, because those are things he is familiar with. Not the neat and tidy Wehrmacht uniforms, nor the latest 1730 rifles.

After a long time, Zhang Dachun got up from the haystack with the sound of a whistle in the distance. He threw away the grass root in his hand, and cursed: "The turtle's son will be cut off. It's so real. I missed this meal." So what about practice? In the future, I will always go back to my hometown to get a hoe."

"I'm going to stay in the army."

Hu Xiaomao's voice sounded abruptly, he seemed to be a deliberate explosion after a long silence, his face was flushed, but his eyes were very firm.

Zhang Dachun glanced at Hu Xiaomao in surprise, and said with a sneer, "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can be a soldier if you want to? Tell you, the Dayi Army is gone, forever."

"But."

Before Hu Xiaomao finished, there was a roar from a distance, it seemed that a dark-faced man was shouting loudly.

"Zhang Dachun, Guizi, if you dare to be lazy, I will screw your head off!"

"I'm coming!"

Zhang Dachun responded loudly, he muttered something in a low voice, as if he was scolding that man, then he looked back at Hu Xiaomao, and said seriously: "There is nothing but, you can't be a Dayi soldier, if you really want to be a soldier, then Go to the National Defense Forces. If you have a chance in the future, you will be more promising than me and your brother!"

Hu Xiaomao stared blankly at Zhang Dachun's disappearing back, he clenched his fists involuntarily, his heart was in a state of confusion.

In fact, in this big army reorganization, not only low-level figures like Hu Xiaomao and Zhang Dachun have their own troubles, but even other officers of the Great Rebellion Army have their own unspeakable sadness. However, now he has to face the fate of saying goodbye to the army completely.

On the eve of leaving Tibet, Chen Daoxian hosted a banquet for all the officers above the middle rank of the Dayi Army, and they all adopted the military rank system of the Great Chu. In the whole room, except for Chen Daoxian himself who did not wear a military rank, everyone else had The generals are star-studded, and the officers with the lowest rank are all colonel commanders.

"Brothers, the old man brought you from Xi'an to Lhasa. Only you can understand the hardships you have endured along the way. What I should say today is all in this glass of wine!"

Chen Daoxian raised his head slightly, his gray hair was dancing in the wind, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it down in one gulp, an abnormal blush appeared on his face instantly.

"Big guy!"

"Your Majesty!"

There was a hint of anxiety on the faces of the generals. Of course they knew the state of Chen Daoxian's body, but everyone knew that this glass of wine had to be drunk again. It represented the end, the end of all grievances.

Everyone couldn't help crying loudly, and they raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp, but after the wine dried up, what was left was endless fear and worry.

When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; when the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks.

After all, the Dayi Army could not compare with the National Defense Army of Dachugenzhengmiaohong. They were not as disciplined as the National Defense Army, nor did they have the strong combat effectiveness of the National Defense Army. They were more like a group of begging people who surrounded Chen Daoxian from Shaanxi to Tibet. To find a way.

It's just that when Chen Daoxian was no longer there, the guide in their hearts naturally disappeared, and no one could stand up to be such a guide again, and the last time this scene happened was in Shaanxi.

How could they not cry at this moment, as at that moment?

In the distance, Ning Zuyi brought his personal guards and was watching such a scene from a distance. Hearing the pain coming from inside, everyone felt a little bit of sympathy.

In any case, everyone is a soldier in the army, so they can understand this feeling to some extent.

Only Ning Zuyi, his expression remained unchanged, he did not continue to stay, but changed hands and walked back, as if he didn't pay attention to the scene in front of him.

"My lord, should we send someone here to keep an eye on it? Although there is nothing wrong at the moment, I'm afraid someone will," the staff officer on the side suggested softly.

Ning Zuyi still didn't have any expression on his face, just walked and said softly: "Don't worry, the overall situation has been settled, they know what is good and bad, and everyone is a soldier, why bother to disturb others at this time, it is really It's so unreasonable."

In fact, before Chen Daoxian hosted the banquet, he had already informed Ning Zuyi of this matter, and invited him to participate, which made it clear that he had a selfless and fearless attitude. Rejected for busy reasons.

Of course, this reason is not false, because Ning Zuyi needs to see a person immediately, this person is Kang Jinai whom Chen Daoxian has emphasized for a long time, and only after meeting this person can Ning Zuyi accurately judge the key to governing Tibet .

At the banquet.

Chen Daoxian looked at all the officers of the Dayi Army, and couldn't help but sighed deeply. How could he really let go of the Dayi Army in his heart?After all, the Dayi Army is his real heart and soul, but now he is facing the result of being completely dismantled, which naturally makes him feel very uncomfortable.

But Chen Daoxian also knew in his heart that the emperor could tolerate him being the king of Tibet and using the Great Rebel Army because he knew what to do and what not to do. In addition, the current situation in Tibet really needed Chen Daoxian, but when he died And after that?

At that time, let alone the emperor, even the cabinet and the Privy Council will not be able to tolerate the continued existence of the Great Rebel Army. At that time, they will still face the current result. Either ask for the reduction of the domain, or force the reduction of the domain, there will be no other way to go.

Rather than making troubles up and down at that time, it is better to hand over power as soon as possible, so that no matter whether it is the emperor, the cabinet or the Privy Council, they will give the Dayi Army a proper arrangement.

"Everyone, I know that you are worried about your future. In fact, you can rest assured. Your Majesty is very benevolent. He once stated that as long as you are willing to enroll in the Army Officer Academy, you can rejoin the National Defense Force after passing the assessment. You are now Having a military rank will also be properly taken into consideration.”

Chen Daoxian said in a low voice: "If you don't want to continue to join the army, you can also take the money and leave. According to your current military rank, the discount is about five hundred silver dollars to ten thousand silver dollars, which is enough for you to settle down and buy a house."

"The commander-in-chief's kindness will never be repaid in the end."

A rough-looking man came to Chen Daoxian with wine, he drank the wine in one gulp, threw the wine bowl on the ground, clasped his fists and said, "Take care, Commander!"

Seeing this scene, everyone drank the wine in one gulp, and then threw the wine bowls on the ground one after another, only to see debris on the ground, and the remaining wine exuded a faint fragrance of wine.

Chen Daoxian's face was already flushed a little, and he was more or less relieved. It was a blessing to be able to dismantle the Dayi Army smoothly and satisfactorily. After all, the big guy still gave him the face of the handsome old man, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary Come to think of it, with such a incident, I am afraid that the days when I return to Nanjing will be much more comfortable.

Just thinking of the bloody battles of the past ten years, Chen Daoxian couldn't help but shed tears, and he whispered softly:

The general Nan Zheng was bold and courageous, and his waist crossed Qiushui Yan Ling knife.

The wind blows the drum and the mountains and rivers move, and the flashing flags are high with the sun and the moon.

There are original species of unicorns in the sky, how can the ants in the cave escape.

When Taiping waits for the return of the edict, we will solve the jersey with her husband.

After reciting the poem, Chen Daoxian got drunk with everyone.

In the mansion of the minister stationed in Tibet, a candle lit up the night, and the burning brazier on the ground dispelled the chill of autumn, making the mansion much warmer.

An old man with half-white beard and hair was sitting in the hall. He was wearing a fox fur hat and a woolen Chuba trimmed with mink fur. He had a long knife in his waist and an amulet on his body. He is half heroic, and this person is Kang Jinai, the head of the five Kalons in Tibet today, and he can be called a hero in today's Tibet.

Kang Jinai, whose real name is Zhennan Jiebu, was appreciated by Lazang Khan as a hero in Tibet, and later became the son-in-law of Lazang Khan, and was appointed as the general manager of the Ngari area. The connection between Er forces and Yining, and later even joined hands with Lazang Khan's secretary Poluonai, cooperated with the Qing army to expel the Zhungeer army.

Later, after the Qing army entered Lhasa, Kang Jinai was given the title of "Beizi" because of his greatest achievements. The Qing court was over, so they happily cooperated with Chen Daoxian to occupy Tibet, and he, the chief Kalon, was retained.

Of course, the reason why Kang Jinai was so happy was because he represented the aristocratic forces in Houzang and Ngari. As the chief Kalon, he was still in a very difficult situation and had to seek support from external forces.

After a while, only footsteps were heard outside the hall, which made Kang Jinai look up, only to find a middle-aged man walking towards the hall, he quickly stood up, kowtow respectfully to meet him, and said in a low voice: "The villain Kang Jinai has met Master Ning."

The person who came was Ning Zuyi, he didn't expect this person to be so knowledgeable, so he accepted the gift calmly and said with a smile: "Kang Jinai, how do you recognize me?"

"I don't know the villain, I just want to come here to pretend that there are no other people." Kang Jinai replied honestly.

Ning Zuyi took a deep look at this person, and said with a smile: "The king of Tibet has told you that you are a great person, but now it seems that you are a master who can pretend to be confused."

"The little man dare not."

Although Kang Jinai's posture was extremely low, there was a sense of neither humble nor overbearing between his brows, and he was not moved by Ning Zuyi's words.

Ning Zuyi nodded slightly, then sat on a chair beside him, and said earnestly: "Since Kang Galon is a smart person, I won't go around in circles, and please teach me what I should do if I want to govern Tibet." What's the plan?"

When Kang Jinai heard this, he raised his head slightly, with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Why do adults think that villains can help adults? Or, why do adults think that villains will definitely help adults?"
