Tuqing: My first love was Cixi

Chapter 220 Britain and France retreat! The emperor spurts blood
In the palace of Prince Gong.

"What is he here for? What is he here for?" Prince Gong said tremblingly: "The talks are almost over. The foreigners will be able to withdraw their troops soon."

He was right, the key terms had been negotiated.

The most critical compensation was also negotiated, with compensation of 8 million taels to the British and 8 million taels to the French.

In addition, the terms for foreign missionaries were further improved, allowing churches to purchase land in the country.

According to the tacit agreement, the British and French forces could then retreat with satisfaction after plundering the Old Summer Palace and several other royal gardens.

"If he comes like this, won't he cause trouble again?" Yi said.

Wenxiang, the commander of the infantry army, said: "Your Majesty, do you want to go and talk to him?"

Bao Jun, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, said: "Yes, Your Majesty, do you want to talk to him?"

Prince Gong and Prince Yi suddenly became quiet, and he immediately understood what the two of them meant.

Or to put it more directly, Su Yi simply rebelled to the end and did something horrifying.

But for Yi, Su Yi went too far.

Count Elgin said: "I don't know, but I can imagine. Because of this, so..."

Earl Elgin said: "Have we ever had this kind of tacit understanding? I don't remember it at all."

................................................

Su Yi led his troops to Beijing, hoping to attack the Qing emperor in the future and punish the treacherous ministers.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Where did the rumors come from if there is nothing? The emperor is in good health and prosperous for a long time." Prince Gong said tremblingly.

Baojun said: "The Sushun faction has all gone to Chengde. If the day comes that Sushun and others will completely take power, then the prince will be in danger."

Su Yi said: "Do you know how successful the World Expo that just passed was?"

Next, the two people choose a place to talk.

He was left in the capital, and to some extent he was on the same side as Prince Gong, but he didn't really want to go so far.

"Earl, we have discussed this." Su Yi said slowly: "After conquering the capital, you have restored your dignity. The next plundering of the royal gardens and the plundering of the people of the capital should not happen."

If something earth-shaking is really done, the biggest beneficiary might even be Prince Gong, right?

After deliberation, Prince Gong Yi decided to pretend that nothing happened.

Prince Gong said: "Then why did you mention him?"

He understood Baojun's deepest thoughts, which were thoughts he couldn't even imagine.

He could not stop Su Yi from leading his army to Beijing, nor did he contact or pay attention to it.

Baojun said: "What happens in the future depends on whether it is near or far away."

Su Yi said: "Now that your army has become rich enough, please lead your army and leave the capital immediately."

But I still completely rejected it, thinking it was extremely ridiculous.

Prince Gong said: "Keep this person at a respectful distance, completely respect him at a distance!"

Even if he were ten times crazier, he would never usurp the throne.

"But don't worry, as long as we rob the Old Summer Palace and rob the Imperial Palace, we will be satisfied, and I will be able to explain to the country enough."

Wen Xiang said: "Keeping a respectful distance may not be enough. If one day in the future, the prince can take power, then he will become a serious problem for you."

Yi was also a Westernizer.

Is Su Yi crazy?
Send troops to Beijing at this time?
He immediately ordered the coalition forces to stop looting and prepare for battle.

Do you want to lure Su Yi as an ally?
Now there are two people who are suppressed by the emperor and cannot get ahead. One is Su Yi and the other is Prince Gong Yi.

Wen Xiang, as the infantry commander of the Yamen, felt a little uncomfortable at this time.

Suddenly, Prince Gong trembled.

Thinking of this possibility, Yi's body felt a little warm.

Baojun said: "Just say it, just say it."

Wen Xiang said: "There is a question now. Even if the prince wants to bring in the army as foreign aid, should he ask Su Yi for help?"

Now is the most humiliating moment for the emperor. What Bao Jun did not say was that Prince Gong Yi and Su Yi joined forces to do something shocking.

Then, Prince Gong ascended the throne.

To a certain extent, what Su Yi wants to do is also what Yi wants to do.

Prince Gong was silent for a while and said: "This person is too difficult to control."

"Impossible!" Earl Elgin sneered: "The tiger that comes out of the cage will never go home without a full stomach."

It was the success of the World Exposition that made Count Elgin need to carry out the war against the Qing Dynasty to the end, looting and burning the Old Summer Palace, and even directly burning the Forbidden City if necessary.

But Count Elgin was shocked.

Baojun said: "That's the problem. Even if we want to bring in the army as foreign aid, it can be Seng Gelinqin, Shengbao, or Ronglu, but it can't be Su Yi."

"I heard that the emperor is not in good health and has tuberculosis." Baojun said.

In this way, the possibility of future cooperation between the two countries will be completely destroyed and the war and dumping route will be carried out to the end.

"I didn't break any agreement, right?" Count Elgin sneered: "When I left London, I did promise to stop the war as soon as Prince Albert's secret order came. But for some reason, the war continued. Too fast."

The war was proceeding so quickly, of course, entirely due to the will of the supreme commander, Count Elgin.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, the Qing army is too useless.

"Su Yi, I will still fulfill my original promise. When Prince Albert's secret order arrives, I will immediately withdraw my troops."

"But now that the London World's Fair is still in full swing, Prince Albert's secret order will not arrive for at least another month."

"After more than a month, I think we will withdraw."

Su Yi said: "If you insist on plundering the Old Summer Palace and the Forbidden City, then I can only use military force to stop it."

Earl Elgin sneered and said: "You can't ask for it. For me, this is completely beneficial without any harm. But I still want to advise you a little, don't engage in such a useless struggle."

"I know that your new army is relatively powerful in combat in the Qing Dynasty. But don't forget, your army was trained by our instructors, and you are just clumsy imitators."

"The Tianjin New Army was also trained by you, right? What was the result? A completely humiliating failure!"

"I couldn't be more excited about the upcoming battle."

"The Tianjin New Army once had the reputation of being invincible in the Qing Dynasty, but now its disguise has been completely torn away, revealing its true face of weakness."

"Now, it's your turn, Su Yi!"

"Your military myth in the Qing Dynasty will also be shattered."

"Once someone senses weakness, countless jackals will bite you and tear you apart."

"Are you ready to show your true colors? Su Yi!"

..........................................

Su Yi's army left Deshengmen and established positions at Ditan and Huangsi in the north of the capital.

This place is already out of the capital, not far from the Old Summer Palace.

The British and French allied forces were stationed on the east side of the Old Summer Palace at this time.

Both armies are building defense lines.

The entire capital seemed to have fallen into silence again.

Many people quietly climbed up the city wall and watched every move outside.

Three days later!

The arrival of the British and French forces issued a pre-war declaration.

"This corrupt country tortures our compatriots and they stain the civilized world."

"For the majesty of the British Empire and the majesty of the French Empire, we will burn down their Old Summer Palace and their Forbidden City, and we will leave a lesson to this country that will never be forgotten."

"However, there is a mediocre and ridiculous army standing in front of us."

"There is a Chinese idiom called the mantis' arm blocking the cart."

"From Dagokou to now, we have defeated nearly 100,000 Qing troops."

"What stands in front of us is an arrogant Qing warlord. He is no different from other Qing soldiers, but he is so stupid that he thinks he is powerful."

"What we have to do is crush them mercilessly just like we destroyed other bug armies!"

"Crush them!"

More than 6,000 British and French troops roared.

At this time, they had despised all the Qing armies to the extreme.

Moreover, the robbery was really pleasant, and suddenly someone came out to block it, blocking people's way of making money, just like killing their parents.

So at this time, of course, the fighting spirit is skyrocketing.

With an order.

Fight, break out.

The British and French forces launched a frenzied bombardment towards Su Yisu's position.

Su Yi's artillery fired back.

But due to the artillery fire from both sides, Su Yi would definitely suffer a big loss.

This time, he led his army northward, first taking the canal, landing in advance before reaching Tongzhou, and then walking more than 200 miles to Beijing.

The only ones that can be brought are light artillery that is easy to transport.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

There were bursts of bombardment.

The previous battles between the British and French forces were too easy, so there was still a lot of ammunition left, which was poured almost crazily on Su Yi's position.

Therefore, the artillery fire from both sides is not at the same level at all.

In fact, Su Yi's artillery fire became weaker and weaker, and finally almost stopped the bombardment.

This was not to show weakness, but the artillery of the British and French forces was too accurate and too violent.

The artillery position on Su Yi's side must be constantly moving, otherwise it will suffer a devastating blow immediately.

Almost as soon as the fighting started, Su Yi's new army felt the terror of the British and French coalition forces.

It really feels like you just came out of the novice village and encountered a BOSS battle. (Old headband, big tree guard)

After feeling that the artillery fire from Su Yi's side had stopped.

The British and French forces were overjoyed that they had suppressed Su Yi's artillery so easily.

Next, instead of stopping the shelling, they continued to increase the intensity of the shelling.

The entire position of Su Yi's new army seemed to be plowed through completely. While the opponent was shelling, orders from officers continued to come from Su Yi's new army position.

"Do not move!"

"Do not move!"

"No one moves!"

Then, everyone really stopped moving.

The comrades beside him were blown away and did not move.

The brothers who had been eating and spanking together this morning suddenly became motionless, unable to move even after being pushed. After a while, blood flowed all over the floor.

It was a bombardment like hell.

The people watching the battle on the city wall were frightened out of their wits.

This... under such fierce artillery fire.

Where is there anyone else?

I don’t know how long it took, but the almost crazy bombardment by the British and French forces ended.

Then, an order was given.

The coalition forces began to charge.

The first to charge were the cavalry.

More than a thousand cavalry roared towards both sides.

The infantry of the British and French forces in the middle were arranged neatly, coming in overwhelming numbers.

Su Yi shouted loudly: "Line up, line up!"

Then, after the artillery fire was messy, all the troops returned to battle formation as quickly as possible, and lined up with the help of simple cover.

Both sides entered the range of fire!
"Fire!"

"fire!"

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Viewed from the sky, it is undoubtedly extremely gorgeous.

The British and French forces still used classic column tactics at this time. The current rifle does not support skirmishing tactics.

The entire army, one team after another, moved forward in an orderly and beautiful manner.

The cavalry charged wildly on the flanks.

Artillery was on the sides and rear, bombarding continuously.

The reserve team is in the rear, ready to go into battle at any time.

After entering the range of fire, both sides became motionless.

Aim, shoot, aim, shoot!

Soldiers from both sides fell in pieces.

At the same time, the cavalry of the British and French allied forces charged directly into Su Yi's position from both wings.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Shiqing led the New Army cavalry and rushed out fiercely.

The two cavalrymen fought together crazily.

On the walls of the capital, the people watching the battle were completely stunned.

This... is probably a European-style battlefield that appears in the East for the first time.

As teachers, the British and French forces met their best students in the East.

Six thousand British and French troops fought against eight thousand Su Yi's new army.

This is a battle full of infinite beauty.

Both armies were arranged neatly.

Shooting wildly at each other, motionless no matter what happened.

The comrades beside him fell down in pieces, but remained motionless.

The commander fell and his deputy came up as his replacement, but he still didn't move.

In all the previous battles, faced with the overwhelming array of British and French forces, the Qing army either rushed forward bravely and brainlessly, or their defense collapsed in place.

Now, the two armies have almost identical tactics.

British coach Lieutenant General Michel and French coach Montauban were completely stunned when they saw this scene.

Just... the casualties in this period of fighting far exceeded all the battles in the past few months.

I couldn't see how many casualties there were, but I only saw my own soldiers falling to the ground one after another. He also saw Su Yi's army constantly falling.

"What did those people do? What did they do?" Lieutenant General Michel roared: "How did they train Su Yi's new army?"

"Their marksmanship is almost as accurate as ours."

In the previous battles, the British and French forces simply pushed through and won directly.

But now, the entire battle formation is stuck in the middle.

The main infantry force of the British and French forces could not push past.

Su Yi's new army's marksmanship and rate of fire are not as good as those of the British and French forces, but they are defensive, have simple fortifications, and have more people.

"Oh my god, we can't afford such heavy casualties!" Lieutenant General Michel said, "We must adjust our tactics."

Montauban said: "No, this is an anxious moment and we cannot retreat. Look at our cavalry, they are about to break through."

"As long as our cavalry defeats the opponent's cavalry and can enter their position, it means victory."

Lieutenant General Michael immediately climbed to a high place and looked at the cavalry battlefield.

really!

The cavalry of the British and French forces had the upper hand.

At this time, Su Yi immediately felt that the combat effectiveness of his own army was not as good as that of the British and French allied forces, and the gap was not even small.

But the infantry can still hold on because of its absolute fighting will, accurate marksmanship, and simple defenses.

The gap between cavalry and infantry is even greater.

On Wang Shiqing's side, there were a total of two thousand cavalry.

On the British and French side, there were only 1,230 cavalry.

But even so, the new army cavalry still fell into a disadvantage.

Wang Shiqing's eyes were about to burst. The commander-in-chief gave us the most money and the most energy. However, two thousand cavalry could not defeat more than one thousand others?

What a shame.

What else can I, Wang Shiqing, look like, living in this world?

Wang Shiqing, furious and furious, shot arrows almost crazily.

The terrifying strong bow shoots extremely terrifying arrows, which can directly shoot through the cavalry of the British and French allied forces.

He shot many people by himself, but he could not change the situation of the war.

Just when the cavalry front was extremely critical, the commander's flag suddenly appeared directly on the cavalry battlefield.

Su Yi was wearing a suit of armor, riding an astonishingly tall horse, and charged towards them wildly while waving a sword.

As the head coach, at this moment, he has led the reserve team to the front line.

Waiting for a huge shame? ! Wang Shiqing urged his horse madly and rushed directly in front of Su Yi.

Su Yiduan shouted: "You are the commander, don't mess up, don't mess up!"

"Our cavalry is not afraid of death, but don't be chaotic!"

"Steady, steady!"

Suddenly, Wang Shiqing came to his senses, quickly abandoned his previous thoughts of humiliation and being shattered into pieces, and began to focus on command.

But Su Yi, the coach, turned into a great killer.

Because his personal combat power is so strong, he wears thick armor and is almost invulnerable.

Leading the elite reserve team to kill and bleed all the way.

This is not his personal heroism, there is really no way around it.

The reserve team led by Su Yi charged wildly and directly stopped the possible defeat of the cavalry front.

The crazy momentum of the British and French cavalry was blocked.

Wang Shiqing's cavalry, which was almost dispersed, took the opportunity to complete the formation once again.

Then, he bravely pressed forward again.

French coach Montauban sighed: "No chance, just a little bit, just a little bit!"

then!

The British and French forces ordered to retreat temporarily.

The first day of battle is over!

........................

At night, the cavalry of Su Yi's new army fell into infinite self-blame.

They are the absolute main force in the new army, but today they were the ones who were almost defeated first.

"You are very brave, almost unafraid of death!"

"Even charging with the belief that you will die."

"But we are facing a completely different opponent. Senggelinqin's Mongolian cavalry is also brave, but it's useless!"

"Facing such a powerful opponent, we must not only be brave, but also wise!"

Lesson learned, enough is enough!

Looking at the moonlight in the sky, Wang Shiqing said: "Commander, our fighting ability is not as good as each other."

Su Yi said: "I know, I have to face this once."

Wang Shiqing said: "Yes, only when you know your shame can you become brave!"

"But we are better than them in one thing. We are fighting for dignity. We are more willing to die, but they...can't bear the casualties."

Su Yi said: "Yes, we are willing to die!"

..............................

next day!

Fighting breaks out again. It was even more tragic than the first day.

The main infantry force of the British and French forces was full of absolute will and kept pushing forward.

It was truly overwhelming, and their cavalry was even more ferocious than yesterday.

However, Wang Shiqing's cavalry held firm today and blocked the opponent's charge.

But the infantry position was suddenly invaded by the British and French forces.

After more than two hours of fierce fighting.

The main infantry force of the British and French forces finally broke through Su Yi's position at the risk of huge casualties.

It's not that Su Yi's army is not brave, but the artillery is not enough and the firepower is not dense enough.

Even though I thought about this scene, it still hurt when it actually happened.

Su Yi's army was already strong, but at this time, the obvious gap between the two armies was still fully exposed.

There was no way around it. Su Yi's new army had been expanded many times, and the battlefields they fought in the country were too low-level.

The British and French coalition's battlefield in Europe was much more difficult and tragic, and they were better able to train a strong army.

Regardless of their background or combat experience, the two armies are quite different.

"Won!" Montaban laughed.

Lieutenant General Michel smiled and said: "Yes, we won."

After looking at it in the distance, Earl Elgin also said to Mai Huatuo beside him: "We win."

According to all previous combat experiences, as long as they break through the opponent's position, the Qing army will be defeated immediately.

Because there were fortifications and advanced weapons before, you couldn't win.

Not to mention the current close combat and hand-to-hand combat.

When Su Yi's new army first formed, what they feared most was hand-to-hand combat. After being driven into position by the Taiping Army, they almost collapsed.

but……

This time, it's different.

Facing foreigners, this was a humiliating battle for the entire New Army.

The battle of destiny.

An extremely brutal hand-to-hand combat broke out.

Su Yi, Wang Shiqing and other generals all died.

At this time, Su Yi's new army was more brave and fearless than any army they encountered.

Almost fanatical, crazy.

Although, the hand-to-hand combat strength is still not as good as that of the British and French coalition forces.

After all, this is not the foreign gun team of Wall that we are facing in history, not the mercenaries, but the elites of the British and French powers.

But Su Yi's army is not afraid of death, and truly lives for death.

The soldiers of Su Yi's new army were stabbed once, twice, or three times.

Even if the intestines flow out, even if the blood and flesh are blurred.

He still rushed forward with a knife and fought tooth and nail, using stones and teeth to destroy the enemy.

"Foreign devils, die, die, die..." A soldier lit a gunpowder bag and rushed directly towards a group of British and French troops.

"Bang bang bang..." The British and French allied forces directly beat him into a hornet's nest. He fell to the ground and died when he was still more than ten meters away.

"Boom..." The soldier was blown to pieces.

Then, the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth...

Wave after wave of new army soldiers launched suicidal charges.

The entire army was almost completely crazy.

The entire battlefield was completely reduced to hell.

Two hours later!
Even the coach, Su Yi, was soaked in blood all over his body.

The British and French forces retreat again!

The next day, the battle ended.

........................

Inside the coalition command headquarters, there was a dead silence.

"We can't fight anymore." Lieutenant General Michel said: "Our army is indeed more powerful and has greater combat effectiveness."

"On the first day, the cavalry almost broke through the opponent's defense line."

"The next day, the infantry broke through the defense line directly."

"But unless we kill them all, they will keep fighting forever."

"Even if we could kill them all, how many casualties would we have?"

"Do you know how many casualties we have suffered now? Today's casualties exceed the sum of the wars against China in the past few years."

"The casualties of Su Yi's new army were even greater, even much greater, but today's hellish battlefield scared many people."

"Su Yi's army can fight for honor, fight for dignity, and fight to the death of the last man." "But for us, the war is over and has been won. If it is just to plunder the Old Summer Palace, plunder In the palace, our soldiers don’t have such great motivation.”

"Let the war cease!" Lieutenant General Michel said.

Then General Montauban repeated this sentence.

Count Elgin gritted his teeth and said: "No, no, there will never be a ceasefire."

"Now that it has begun, we must completely kill Su Yi's army, drive him completely out of the political arena of the Qing Dynasty, and completely cut off any possibility of the British Empire supporting him."

"We still have an army. We have brought 30,000 troops. This time, only 6,000 people are fighting against Su Yi. We are in Tianjin, we are in Tongzhou, we are in Yantai, we are in Guangzhou, we all still have troops!"

"Order to assemble ten thousand people, enter the battlefield in the capital, and kill all of Su Yi's main force!"

Lieutenant General Michael said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the relationship between Su Yi and Prince Albert is very close."

Count Elgin said: "He took the initiative to join this war, didn't he?"

"Moreover, Prince Albert's secret order has not arrived, and the secret order from Congress has not arrived. The progress of the war depends entirely on us."

"Tell all the soldiers that after completely wiping out Su Yi's army, they can completely plunder the Old Summer Palace and plunder the Qing palace."

"Everyone and every household in this capital can rob as much as they want."

"After destroying Su Yi's new army, the entire army was completely lethargic for ten days!"

Following Count Elgin's order, a group of cavalry went to Tongzhou to convey the order and to Tianjin to convey the order.

A few days later!

Ten thousand troops of the British and French allied forces completed their assembly in Tianjin.

Then, they headed towards the capital in a mighty manner.

At that time, when attacking the capital, the British and French forces only dispatched 6,000 troops.

This time, the main force that defeated Su Yi was 13,000 to 4,000 people.

at the same time!

Wang Youling, Zhang Guoliang, and Feng Zicai led a coalition of 30,000 people from seven southern provinces to land in Cangzhou.

Then, he ran towards the capital as fast as he could.

These 30,000 troops almost exhausted all the troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Later, Tian Yugong led an army of 10,000 people and entered the Yangtze River.

Seeing that the war with the British and French forces is about to expand in an all-round way.

This is something Su Yi doesn't want to see at all, because once it evolves into a full-scale war, future cooperation will be gone.

That is at this time!
July 17th!
Bashar's ship docked in Tianjin.

"How's it going? How's it going?" Ba Xiali shouted loudly.

It was learned that Su Yi's army and the coalition forces had opened fire, and that another 10,000 coalition troops were reinforcing the capital to completely eliminate Su Yi's main force.

Bashali almost went crazy.

His great future is already about to succeed.

It seems that the fate of countless people will soon be changed.

"Prince Albert orders an armistice!"

"Her Majesty the Queen orders a ceasefire!"

"Congress orders an armistice!"

The Queen's order and the Congress's order have not yet come.

However, due to the urgent situation, Ba Xiali had no choice but to issue an edict.

Without any pause, he led a group of cavalry and sprinted towards the capital at full speed.

Finally, when they were still sixty miles away from the capital, they caught up with the 10,000 coalition troops.

"I give you a ceasefire by order of Prince Albert, by order of Her Majesty the Queen, and by order of Parliament!"

The general in charge of the army, after reading it, said: "I only saw the prince's secret order, not the order of Her Majesty the Queen and the Congress."

Basia said politely: "In the back, I'll be there soon!"

The commander of the army said: "I'm very sorry, we need to see the order from the Queen and Congress, or the order from Count Elgin before we can stop the march."

Basia Li had no choice but to lead his cavalry towards the capital once again.

A few hours later!
Basxali handed Prince Albert's secret order to Su Yi, and then he dressed up as an entourage.

A quarter of an hour later!
Su Yi led three people and rode towards the coalition's position.

The British and French forces were shocked.

After the previous battle, they certainly knew that this was the opponent's coach, and he was an extremely tough person.

Unexpectedly, he came with only three people.

General Montauban and Michael came to greet him.

After a while, several people jointly went to Count Elgin's room.

Ba Xiali handed the prince's secret order to the other party.

"Prince's order, cease war immediately!"

Earl Elgin took it and took it apart to take a look.

There is no doubt that this is Albert's personal secret order, and it is even stamped with the royal coat of arms, not just the prince's own.

Basharli said: "The London World Expo has achieved unprecedented success. The orders for the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone exceeded 9 million pounds. The opening shocked the whole of Europe and the whole world. Prince Albert's reputation reached its peak. Her Majesty the Queen personally expressed her position, We must support Sino-British cooperation.” (9 million pounds, made up by Basili)
"His Royal Highness the Prince said that as long as the Qing capital is captured and the emperor compromises, you will achieve great success."

"Next, the position awaiting you is the Governor-General of India!"

For a moment, Count Elgin's breath trembled.

The Governor-General of India was one of the most powerful positions in the British Empire.

How many places can the Chinese Minister manage? Only a few people?

Governor General of India? It can manage millions of square kilometers and a population of more than 100 million.

The Viceroy of India is equivalent to the Emperor of India.

If you dare to refuse, you will completely anger His Highness and your future will be gone.

Half an hour later!
Count Elgin ordered that the war is over!

At this time, 10,000 British and French troops had just entered the capital from Yongding Gate.

........................

next day!

In the square in front of the Forbidden City.

More than 10,000 British and French troops stood neatly.

Countless people saw this scene and felt trembling and fearful in their hearts.

This...the British and French forces are going to officially enter the palace and destroy the Forbidden City?

Although there are people who are gloating about the misfortune, most people are desperate, frightened, and terrified.

Tears welled up.

The Forbidden City does indeed belong to the emperor.

But it is also a symbol of this country, a symbol for hundreds of years.

If the palace is destroyed, it means the fall of the country.

However, at this time, Su Yi, dressed in military uniform and protected by a group of new troops, entered the square in front of the Forbidden City.

Solemn and solemn.

Su Yi represents the Chinese side, and Count Elgin represents the British and French forces.

The armistice agreement was officially signed!

Yes, just an armistice.

Moreover, all treaties have nothing to do with Su Yi.

After signing the armistice agreement.

Count Elgin ordered: "The entire army retreats!"

Then, under everyone's extremely horrified eyes, nearly 14,000 British and French troops left the capital.

What's the meaning? what happened?
The foreigners have withdrawn!
The capital was saved.

The imperial palace was saved, and the Old Summer Palace was saved.

Hundreds of thousands of people were saved.

Countless people witnessed this scene.

Marshal Su Yi saved the capital and the country.

........................

next day!

The entire streets of the capital were crowded with people.

"Commander Su Yi is victorious!"

"Commander Su Yi is a thousand years old!"

Countless people looked at Su Yi with eyes full of enthusiasm and admiration.

Su Yi went to his mansion under the protection of the new army.

Look at the "Rebellious Officials and Traitors" on the plaque above, and look at the "Rebellious Officials and Traitors" on the stone tablet set up at the door.

Countless people were angry, and the New Army's eyes were about to burst.

"Commander, smash it, smash it!"

"Commander, I'm here with a hammer, let's smash it!"

Su Yi raised his hand, and the whole place fell into silence.

"The emperor said that I am a rebellious minister and a traitor, I cannot smash him!"

"If you want to smash it, let the emperor do it himself!"

"I would like to ask the emperor, when the capital was in danger and the people were in danger, he fled in a hurry and was greedy for life and afraid of death. How could he have the face to face his ancestors? How could he have the face to lead the country?"

"The former Emperor Lie of the Ming Dynasty actually knew that the emperor died in the country and the emperor guarded the country, but he was not as good as the emperor who perished in the previous Ming Dynasty?"

As soon as these words came out, Bao Jun in the crowd felt his heart tremble and his whole body became cold.

Previously, Su Yi only resigned from all positions and even returned all his fame to the emperor, which represented a break.

But he never spoke a word about the emperor.

At this time, in front of everyone, Su Yi formally criticized the emperor.

Moreover, he said this in front of hundreds of thousands of people.

What are the consequences of this?

After hearing this, hundreds of thousands of people were quiet for a moment.

Suddenly, someone raised their arms and shouted: "The commander-in-chief is right!"

"Dark Lord!"

"Dark Lord!"

In the crowd, people kept shouting.

Although only a few thousand people chanted out of hundreds of thousands of people.

But the sound was also deafening.

"Dark Lord!"

Baojun in the crowd was almost tottering.

Crazy, crazy, totally crazy.

..............................

In the study room.

"Sir Basiali, are we friends?" Su Yi asked.

Bashar said politely: "Of course."

Su Yi said: "I cannot forgive what Count Elgin did. He ordered the plunder and humiliation of my people. He burned our country's royal gardens."

"Although I saved the Old Summer Palace, the palace, and the properties and lives of countless people, it was not enough."

Ba Xiali trembled: "You, what do you want to do?"

Su Yi said: "You are in India, do you have any connections?"

Ba Xiali's teeth trembled and he said, "Yes, I guess I do."

Su Yi said: "In India, in the name of the rebels, we robbed and killed Count Elgin, cut him into eight pieces, and left him dead on the city wall!"

Basharli said: "That will trigger a new war, and the British Empire will once again launch a war of suppression against India."

Su Yi said: "What does that have to do with us? The British Empire is carrying out a suppressive war in India, so cooperation with China is more urgent, isn't it? It will be of greater benefit to you and me."

Ba Xiali said tremblingly: "Even if I don't agree, you will still find a way to do it, right?"

Su Yi said: "Yes, but as an ally, I feel it is necessary to tell you."

"I don't want to do it." Basia said: "I think there is no need to do this, but... no matter what I decide, you will do it. Then... then I have no choice, I can only put this plan Become more perfect and never let the country see any flaws, for the sake of our common interests."

"Okay, I'll do it!" Basiali drank the cup of tea while trembling.

Su Yi said: "Thank you."

Basia said politely: "There is something I want to ask you."

Su Yi said: "You tell me."

Ba Xiali said: "If I encounter a crisis in the future, will you do everything you can to help me and save me like you did for Xu Youren and Wang Youling?"

Su Yi was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "I will."

Basia saluted, "Thank you very much."

Then, he stood up and said: "I will come up with the whole plan right now. Also, please don't tell Sir Baoling. Only the two of us know about this matter, okay?"

Su Yi said: "Of course."

....................................

Su Yi saved the capital.

Su Yi forced the foreigners to retreat.

This news overflowed from the capital like a storm, sweeping to Shuntian Mansion, to Zhili, and then to the whole country.

At this time, Prince Gong Yiye and Count Elgin signed all relevant treaties.

The whole process was very low-key.

Sino-British Beijing Treaty, Sino-French Beijing Treaty, Sino-US Beijing Treaty, Sino-Russian Beijing Treaty.

Because he represents the Qing court.

Su Yi was powerless to stop him, as he did not have any official position.

Moreover, in the future, he will use war and political means to destroy these humiliating treaties step by step and defeat the great powers.

Step by step, China will be elevated to the position of a world power.

This means that he is stepping up to the supreme position step by step.
Absolute justice.

A few days later!
The British and French forces officially withdrew from Tongzhou.

Next, they will also withdraw their troops from Tianjin.

At this time, Prince Gong, Wen Xiang, and Bao Jun were once again faced with a difficult choice.

How should everything in the capital be reported back to the emperor in Chengde, or should it even be reported?
"Even if we don't report, someone else will."

“Instead of doing this, it’s better for us to take the initiative.

Prince Gong said: "Then...should we report it truthfully?"

Baojun said: "It's best to tell the story truthfully."

Prince Gong said: "In this case, the emperor will completely vent his anger on me, right?"

Baojun said: "My lord, do you want the emperor to return immediately?"

Prince Gong was astonished and said: "Of course, I certainly hope that the emperor will return as soon as possible."

Of course he didn't want it in his heart.

The foreigners finally retreated, and the next biggest man in the capital was Prince Gong. He had not yet had time to enjoy his power.

But where can I say this?

Baojun said: "The foreigners are still in Tianjin and have not completely retreated. I'm afraid the emperor will be frightened when he returns."

"In addition, some time ago, in front of Su Yi's house, countless people chanted...those two words. If the emperor hears those two words, I'm afraid he won't want to go back at all. What should he do?"

This sentence is almost explicit.

Prince Gong said: "I'd better stop here with my memorial. But the emperor still needs to know the truth, so he has to find a way to find someone else to submit the memorial."

Baojun said: "That's natural!"

..............................

Rehe is under the jurisdiction of the capital, and the palace is in Chengde.

The emperor has been here for some time.

At first, he was in agony.

But gradually, he chose to forget.

Sushun and others liked him and staged great dramas in the palace every day.

Previously, Sushun and others had sent women from the private sector to the palace, but it later caused a commotion and they did not dare to do it again.

But when I came here, I was unscrupulous.

The folk were of stunning beauty and were sent to the palace one by one.

However, the emperor's lung disease seemed to have relapsed.

The weather is pleasant now, not cold at all. In previous years, the emperor's lung disease would only attack after winter.

However, it doesn't look serious. As long as the emperor is happy, the situation will be much better and the frequency of coughing will be much less.

The emperor was still very concerned about the situation in the capital and asked him three questions a day.

During this period, all good news came.

The foreigners withdrew from the capital.

The foreigners have withdrawn from Tongzhou.

The foreigners are going to withdraw from Tianjin.

Although Changchun Garden and other places were looted and burned by foreign barbarians, the most important Yuanmingyuan was not burned and suffered little military disaster.

The Forbidden City was not damaged in any way.

The emperor was very happy after hearing this and praised: "Yi is not bad, Wen Xiang is not bad, Bao Jun is not bad either."

Next, another report came.

The talks with Prince Gong are almost over, and the foreigners have begun to withdraw their troops from Tianjin one after another.

Prince Gong has already submitted a petition asking the emperor to return.

At this point, the emperor was overjoyed.

Start thinking about when to return to Beijing.

Until this time, no one dared to tell the emperor everything that happened in the capital.

Until one day, when the emperor favored a civilian woman, the other party said afterwards: "Your Majesty, Su Yi fought with foreigners in the capital, and the casualties were tragic."

The emperor was stunned and began to question.

At this time, Sushun and others had no choice but to take out many secret memorials and handed them to the emperor.

"The slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die!"

"It's true that Su Yi said a lot of treacherous things in the capital. The Emperor's dragon body is not in good condition. I really don't dare to show these things to the Emperor!"

The emperor took a copy of the secret report and read it.

Su Yi led his army to Beijing and fought with the foreigners.

Su Yi forced back the foreign barbarian army, saved the Old Summer Palace, saved the Forbidden City, and saved the capital.

Earl Elgin and Su Yi signed an armistice agreement at the entrance of the palace, and then ordered a retreat.

The emperor's face began to turn blue and purple, and he hissed: "What else? What else?"

"You are so brave, you actually cut off the Holy Spirit?"

"Where are the other secret memoranda? Turn them all over and take them out." The emperor roared angrily.

Sushun knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, don't read anything else, don't read it."

The emperor said: "Bring them all over, where is the secret report from the sticky pole?"

There has never been any blood drops at Sticky Rod, and it is not even a very professional intelligence agency, but secret reports from the capital are still sent out every day.

The emperor wanted to see it, but Sushun and others had no choice but to send a eunuch to deliver a secret report from the sticky pole.

And these secret reports are very detailed, even too detailed.

Everything Su Yi said at the door of the house that day was recorded in detail.

After Su Yi saved the capital, he was regarded as the savior by countless people.

Hundreds of thousands of people followed suit, and countless people knelt down and worshiped Su Yi.

Some people shouted thousand lives, and even occasionally long live. Perhaps they wanted to call Wansheng, but they shouted wrongly.

The foreigners' retreat was regarded as Su Yi's contribution.

Countless people have erected monuments for Su Yi in their homes, saying that he helped the country and was an unparalleled hero.

Su Yi's two heart-wrenching words at the door of his home were also written clearly.

The emperor was greedy for life and feared death, so he fled in a hurry and had no face to face his ancestors.

Next, there were some words that I didn’t even dare to write as a secret report from the sticky pole.

Because I wrote a paragraph and then erased it.

It's okay if you don't erase it. Once it is erased, the emperor is more curious about what is written on it, so he orders: "Call the people at the sticky pole, call them!"

After a while, a guard at a sticky point knelt in front of the emperor.

"Were you there that day?" the emperor asked tremblingly.

"Slaves are present."

The emperor asked, "What else did Su Yi say that was treasonous and treasonous?"

The guards at Sticky Rod didn't dare to say.

The emperor said: "Don't tell me? Do you still want your life?"

The guard at the sticking pole trembled and said: "Su Yi said... The emperor is afraid that he will not be as good as Chongzhen, the king who lost his country. He also knows that the king will die in the country, and the emperor will guard the country."

Hearing this, the emperor's face began to turn red.

"What else? What else did this traitor say?"

The guard at the sticking pole said: "At that time, many people wanted to help Su Yi destroy the plaques and stone tablets of the rebellious officials and traitors, but Su Yi said that they could not be destroyed unless the emperor personally destroyed the plaques and stone tablets someday."

"Dream, dream his eternal dream." The emperor roared loudly: "I can't wait to cut him into pieces. He is a rebellious minister and the biggest traitor since the founding of the Qing Dynasty."

After roaring, the emperor coughed desperately.

This coughing fit was extremely violent and lasted for several minutes. The coughing made the emperor's eyes turn red.

Sushun and Du Han kowtowed desperately and said, "Your Majesty, don't ask, don't ask."

After finally coughing, the emperor covered his chest in pain and said, "What else? What other treasonous words does he have?"

The guard at the sticky pole really didn't dare to say anything, and quickly shook his head and said: "There is no more emperor, there is really no more."

"Also, your look tells me that you haven't finished speaking." The emperor said angrily: "Say it, say it..."

The guard at the stick-sticking place shook his head desperately.

The emperor said: "Are you also going to deceive me? Come here, pull me out and kill me with a stick!"

Immediately, the guard at the stick stick kowtowed desperately: "Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, spare your life."

The emperor coughed violently again and said, "Speak, please speak quickly."

The guard at the sticking pole said: "At that time, countless people shouted loudly..."

The emperor said: "What are you chanting? What?"

The guard at the sticking pole kowtowed desperately: "Even if I cut my slave into pieces, I still wouldn't dare to say those two words..."

"Are you a fool? Are you a fool?" the emperor roared angrily.

The guard at the sticking pole knelt and crawled on the ground, not daring to move, just crying desperately.

The emperor couldn't help but think about that picture.

Countless people supported Su Yi and admired him.

Countless people raised their arms and shouted, "The emperor is stupid, the emperor is stupid, the emperor is stupid!"
"Cough, cough, cough..."

During the violent coughing, the emperor seemed to have auditory hallucinations, as if the deafening words "Faint King" came from his ears.

The emperor roared: "Su Yi, I will be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts, be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts!"

Then, there was another violent cough, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
