Tuqing: My first love was Cixi

Chapter 237: Stealing the beauty of the Queen Mother! One-sided massacre!
(It has been reviewed again, I will modify it)

Su Yi is in talks with Zuo Zongtang.

Jin Liang was extremely excited. Ever since Su Yi announced that he would dismantle the Eight Banners Army and form the Imperial Army, he had been in a state of excitement.

He knew that Su Yi would make big moves after entering the center, but he didn't expect that the moves would be so big.

I can't imagine that Su Yi would choose such a difficult challenge just after entering the center.

So, he immediately went to meet with various Hunan army bosses and asked Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, Li Xubin, Luo Bingzhang and a series of other frontier officials to formally submit memorials to support Su Yi's new policy.

But without exception, all were rejected.

This made him very angry.

He was very dissatisfied when the Hunan Army stopped the Battle of Anqing.

And now this dissatisfaction has reached its limit.

Zuo Zongtang said: "What about the actual situation?"

Zuo Zongtang said: "Xiang Su, you already have 20,000 troops in the capital, including 4,000 new troops. What is the name of sending another 6,000 new troops to Beijing?"

Su Yi said: "Does Mr. Ji Gao have any rumors?"

"The situation in the entire northwest is extremely dangerous. Now I can't sleep at night even thinking about it, but not many people in the court care about the northwest."

After knowing that Su Yi was going south, he immediately left Luzhou and came to talk with Su Yi.

At this time, he had a total of 20,000 troops in the capital, including 4,000 new troops.

Zuo Zongtang suddenly said: "Xiang Su, I don't think so."

Zuo Zongtang asked: "Suppress the Eight Banners soldiers who may cause rebellion?"

That’s it.

Su Yi said: "Just in case."

Even in less than a year, millions of people were slaughtered.

And they will soon face a terrible massacre. In the next few years, the entire northwest Han people will be slaughtered by an astronomical number. Current statistics put the number at around 20 million.

"Xiang Su, once the northwest breaks out, our territory will be reduced by one-third, which will be a complete disaster for China."

Su Yi smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ji Gao, for reminding me."

At this time, Su Yi's new army was gathering.

"But... the most dangerous place, I feel, is the northwest."

Zuo Zongtang said: "After all, I am a senior member of the Hunan Army. I vaguely know that there are people in the capital who are secretly communicating with the Hunan Army. I think the purpose is self-evident."

Now, he has once again assembled six thousand troops and is boarding ships.

Therefore, Su Yi needs to make arrangements in advance and continue to increase his troops in the capital to ensure that at the critical moment, even if the worst situation occurs, Su Yi can completely control the capital.

Su Yi said: "Prevent the Russians from attacking Shengjing."

"Now there are many factions there, and tens of millions of people are at odds with the Qing Dynasty. This large piece of land has only been owned by our country for a mere hundred years. It was already in danger due to racial and religious reasons."

Su Yi would implement this new policy no matter what, and it was obvious that he would encounter huge resistance.

"What's more, there is now an additional Russian who is constantly infiltrating and increasing troops. He is full of absolute hostility and greed towards our Qing Dynasty."

Su Yi said: "Mr. Ji Gao, where is the most dangerous place in our country now?"

And the date of this massacre is getting closer and closer.

Today, the Han people in the northwest are facing massive attrition.

The northwest mentioned by Zuo Zongtang is not only Xinjiang, but also Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai and other regions.

In fact, the current situation is more critical than Zuo Zongtang said.

After all, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents. If this group of people secretly carries out sabotage, or even carries out large-scale assassinations or terrorist attacks, it will be impossible to prevent them.

"You entered the center. On the surface, there is harmony. That's because many people are watching, and the queen mothers of the two palaces are still on your side."

"So Mr. Su, you belong to an extreme minority now. It's just that your reputation is too ruthless, so people are temporarily dormant."

Su Yi said: "Yes."

Zuo Zongtang said: "Xiang Su, your handiwork is amazing. Zuo admires it very much. But I actually don't understand. Are you too hasty in such a big reform as the abolition of the Eight Banners soldiers? Why not delay it for a year or two?"

Zuo Zongtang sighed: "If these Eight Banners soldiers fight as a group, they have little combat effectiveness. But if they break into pieces and start to cause sabotage and resist the New Deal in the capital, they will be extremely destructive, and the Eight Banners' power in the capital is too great." It’s too deep, so if there is a drastic change, more troops will be needed to maintain security in the capital.”

"Your imperial court is weak now, so the power of the center in the northwest is getting weaker and weaker. The collapse there will only happen sooner or later."

"The entire northwest accounts for more than one-third of our Qing territory, but the number of people who are committed to the Qing Dynasty is now only a minority."

Su Yi said: "The situation in the north is now more critical."

Zuo Zongtang said: "Many places are dangerous. You are in danger in the capital because you are a minority. I don't know how many of your enemies are lurking in the dark. The sea is very dangerous because the Qing Dynasty does not have any coastal defense. Continue If you want to launch a full-scale war on the Westernization Movement, it will definitely be in the cities along the Yangtze River, but with our naval strength, we cannot resist the foreign fleet. "

"But there will still be many people who are dissatisfied. There are many people who want to knock you out of power. Do you know who are humans or ghosts?"

Looking at the densely packed new troops boarding the ship, Zuo Zongtang said: "Xiang Su, after your six thousand new troops entered Beijing, there will be even fewer troops left in the south."

Su Yi said: "Mr. Ji Gao is right. Our coastal defense in the Qing Dynasty is empty, and our northwest land defense is even more in danger."

"So, after I enter the center, I will not only develop coastal defense, but also develop northwest land defense."

"I have sent people to London to negotiate and plan to form a truly advanced navy. In the next eight years, it will cost about 40 million taels, including shipyards, warships, weapons, personnel training, etc."

Zuo Zongtang suddenly took a breath of cold air when he heard 40 million taels.

"So many? Is it necessary?" Zuo Zongtang trembled and said, "The urgency of our country's coastal defense is not that high."

Historically, Li Hongzhang was from the coastal defense faction and Zuo Zongtang was from the land defense faction. The two men fought endlessly.

Su Yi said: "Mr. Zuo, do you know how much the factories and so on we will develop in the next ten years will be worth?"

Zuo Zongtang said: "Tell me about it."

Su Yi said: "It is about ten times the size of the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone, and it will get bigger and bigger. Anyone would covet such an astronomical amount of wealth, including the British who are supporting us now, and they are pirates. , once we have astronomical wealth but do not have enough power to protect it, they will directly rob us. "

"In order to protect this astronomical wealth in the future, we must develop a navy, because all robbers come from the sea."

"And the navy is different from the army. An army of tens of thousands can be formed in one or two years. The navy can be formed at a much slower rate. You must not wait until the economy is fully developed before developing it. Navy, it's too late."

"And the Navy can make money."

Zuo Zongtang said: "Make money, where can you make money?"

Su Yi said: "Japan."

Su Yi pointed to Japan on the map and said: "There is an astronomical amount of silver here. With the navy, we can grab it once or twice, and then we can get back all the money to build the navy."

Then, Su Yi pointed at Vietnam and said, "This is our vassal state. The French began to invade Vietnam four years ago. They asked for help several times, but we were unable to do anything."

"Nowadays, the British's interests in our country are getting bigger and bigger, France has become more and more dissatisfied, and the contradiction between it and our country will become bigger and bigger."

"So in the future, we and the French will also have a big fight in Vietnam."

"We have three major wars to fight externally in the future."

"In the first game, in order to stabilize the northwest and regain the hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land that were cut off from the north, we must fight the Russians."

"This battle will officially announce our country's rejuvenation and enter the mainstream of the world."

"And once we start a war with the Russians, it will not be a small fight. In the Crimean battlefield, both sides invested millions of troops. And once we have a big war with the Russians, it will become a small fight and eventually become a big fight. Total War."

According to Su Yi's judgment, the scale of the next war between China and Tsarist Russia will definitely not be as large as the Russo-Japanese War. After all, it is a war with a million-strong army.

However, if we want to regain those hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land, one war will definitely not be enough. At least two wars will be needed.

What is certain is that the troops invested by Tsarist Russia will definitely exceed 100,000 people.

So, this will be the first time this country faces a truly all-out major war.

Zuo Zongtang said: "According to your judgment, when will the war between us and the Russians break out?"

Su Yi said: "The first one will be smaller in scale, but it should also break out within two or three years."

"And our navy's invasion of Japan, according to my plan, should be within ten years."

"The war between us and the French in Vietnam should happen within fifteen years."

"Through these wars, we will not only be able to return to the world's mainstream order, but also become one of the world's great powers, become the absolute hegemon in East Asia, and restore the previous tribute system."

These words made Zuo Zongtang's blood boil.

Su Yi continued: "The navy will invest about 40 million taels in the next eight years."

"And the Army will invest more than 40 million taels in the next five years."

"The war in the northwest is getting closer. The war with the Russians in the north is also getting closer."

"And the more than 200,000 Eight Banners troops consume more than 10 million taels every year, and the 800,000 Green Camp soldiers also consume more than 10 million taels every year."

"This army of more than one million consumes more than 20 million in national funds every year, but it is of little use."

"So Mr. Ji Gao, how can I not be in a hurry?"

Even with Zuo Zongtang's eyes, he couldn't see the future.

Only Su Yi could clearly see what would happen next year and what would happen the year after that.

Therefore, it is extremely urgent to abolish the Eight Banners soldiers, and time does not wait for us.

Before next year, there is an extremely precious period of peace.

After the time enters 1863, wars will ensue in various places.

If military reforms are not carried out during peacetime, how can they be carried out during war?

Zuo Zongtang said tremblingly: "Prime Minister Su, after your analysis, the time left for us to implement military reforms is extremely short. There is not even a half-year window, only a few months."

Su Yi said: "Yes, only a few months."

"No wonder, no wonder..." Zuo Zongtang said: "It's really urgent, much more urgent than I thought."

"But in this way, the next year will become our most dangerous and most vulnerable moment."

Su Yi said: "The moment before breaking out of the cocoon and turning into a butterfly is the most dangerous. I don't know how many of them died of suffocation in the pupa."

"In the next year, the abolition of the Eight Banners Army will cause extremely violent turbulence. At that time, the new Imperial Army has not yet been built. The enemy lurking in the dark will continue to take action. If you are not careful, the world will be turned upside down."

Then, Su Yi stretched out her hand towards Zuo Zongtang and said, "Mr. Ji Gao, I formally extend an invitation to you to join the future Ministry of War and become the Assistant Minister. Are you willing?"

There is no trace of the Army Ministry at present, but Zuo Zongtang is the backbone of the Hunan Army and the chief envoy of Anhui.

Zuo Zongtang said: "Prime Minister Su, in order to implement this military reform, what is the highest limit you can do?"

Su Yi said: "Carry out bloody suppression, even if blood flows like a river."

Zuo Zongtang said: "In that case, you may really become Dong Zhuo."

Su Yi said: "Of course I hope it doesn't get to that point."

Promoting military reform is the core and most basic policy of the Su Yi Center.

It even determines the fate of the country in the next ten years.

In order to achieve this goal, Su Yi did not hesitate to pay any price, even if he killed others and killed Buddhas.

Zuo Zongtang said: "After the Eight Banners troops are disbanded, will the Green Camp Army be disbanded?"

Su Yi said: "Yes, of course I will."

Zuo Zongtang said: "So, will the Hunan Army be abolished in the future?"

Su Yi said: "Of course."

"In the future, all domestic military forces will be centralized."

Suddenly, Zuo Zongtang was dazzled by Su Yi's generosity, he was the one who did big things.

What's even more cruel is that Su Yi's new policy starts directly with the Eight Banners soldiers.

Then, Zuo Zongtang stretched out his hand and said: "Zuo, I am willing to follow Prime Minister Su and accomplish an unprecedented great cause."

"For the rejuvenation of China!"

Next, Zuo Zongtang wrote the memorial directly on the desk.

He formally submitted his resignation to the imperial court as the chief envoy of Anhui.

Anyway, he had a very unhappy relationship with the Hunan Army. The Army Department in Su Yi's mouth was the place where he could fulfill his lifelong dream.

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

Next, Su Yi was waiting for the arrival of a batch of arms.

Su's continuous rifle!

In fact, the prototype is the Spencer Repeater Gun, which is a revolution in weapons in the world.

Previously, even with the most advanced Enfield 1853 rifle, a soldier could fire three bullets in one minute.

The new rifle can fire at least 16 bullets per minute.

The design drawings of this rifle were provided by Su Yi, and were slightly improved on the basis of the Spencer rifle.

But sadly, he had the drawings but could not produce them. He could only hand them over to the British arsenal for production.

Therefore, the establishment of the Manufacturing Bureau is extremely urgent.

As a result, the new batch of rifles did not arrive, but the Queen Mother's decree did.

Let Su Yi go to Beijing immediately to resolve the crisis.

"Is it critical?" Su Yi asked.

Eunuch Cheng Shou said: "It's very critical. There are more than 20,000 Eight Banners soldiers surrounding the palace. The emperor was frightened and cried several times. The queen mothers of the two palaces also had trouble sleeping and eating. Lord Ronglu's army has entered the palace."

Su Yi said: "What do those banner ministers do for food? Can't you even persuade them to leave?"

These banner ministers have a close relationship with the Eight Banners Army, either as masters and servants or as relatives.

Eunuch Cheng Shou said: "Xiang Su, we must have a life-and-death friendship."

It was indeed a life-and-death friendship. As the relationship between the emperor and Su Yi deteriorated, Zenglu and Chengshou were sent far away and worked as coolies in the palace for several years.

Su Yi said: "Of course."

Eunuch Cheng Shou said: "Then let's have a heart-to-heart talk with Prime Minister Su. None of the ministers in Beijing support the abolition of the Eight Banners Soldiers. It's just that they don't object openly. But with the 20,000 Eight Banners Soldiers surrounding the palace, I don't know how many of them there are. The minister secretly added fuel to the flames.”

"And let me tell you the truth, the Queen Mothers of the two palaces have already spread the word that they do not support the abolition of the Eight Banners Soldiers."

Su Yi said: "What do you think?"

"Cao!" said the eunuch Cheng Shou: "These people don't know how to fight, but they bully the good."

Then, Cheng Shou said worriedly: "Xiang Su, in our hearts, you are half of our master. To be honest, we are really worried."

Su Yi didn't speak, but patted Cheng Shou on the shoulder.

After receiving the order, Su Yi did not go to Beijing immediately, but was still waiting for the new continuous rifle.

But we can't wait long, only a day or two at most.

Once these 20,000 Eight Banners soldiers really start to attack the palace, the consequences will be disastrous.

Moreover, although Yehenara has a very tough temperament, she is still soft in her bones. When the pressure reaches a certain level, she may really compromise.

Once the Queen Mothers of the two palaces really publicly declare that they will never disband the Eight Banners Army, it will be really troublesome.

Finally, thirty-seven hours later, Su Yi waited eagerly.

The cargo ship finally arrived, bringing brand-new rifles, although there were only five hundred of them.

But for Su Yi, it was enough.

Next, Su Yi selected the most elite 300 people from the new army and equipped them with new rifles.

"Time is very tight, and there is no time for you to practice shooting on land." Su Yi said: "We need to go to Beijing immediately, and you need to complete the shooting training on the ship in just a few days."

"Yes!" The three hundred guards shouted in unison.

Then, Su Yi gave an order.

The huge fleet set off in great might.

The new army of 6,300 people, plus various weapons, loaded hundreds of ships.

Zuo Zongtang, the chief envoy of Anhui, did not care that his resignation had not been approved yet and went directly to Su Yi's ship.

At this point, Jin Liang officially left the Hunan Army.

After Zeng Guofan heard this, he was extremely angry and smashed the cup in his hand.

Su Yi's large fleet moved east along the Yangtze River and arrived at the mouth of the Yangtze River in two or three days.

At this time, Ba Xiali has not returned to Shanghai.

There are only less than ten days left before the one-month period for Su Yi and Minister Bruce to discuss.

Therefore, the risk of war in the Yangtze River Estuary is getting higher and higher.

The combined fleet and Su Yi's Yangtze River Fleet are already at war with each other.

Seeing the appearance of Su Yi's large fleet, the foreign combined fleet was immediately frightened.

Is this an increase in troops?

British Minister Bruce once again boarded Su Yi's ship.

"There are only nine days left. There are only nine days left before the deadline." Minister Bruce asked: "Where is the order from London?"

Then, he asked in surprise: "Where are you going with so many troops?"

Su Yi said: "Go to the capital."

Minister Bruce asked: "What are you going to do?"

Su Yi said: "Promote military reform."

Minister Bruce trembled: "You, you plan to suppress those Eight Banners soldiers with force?"

Su Yi said: "I hope it doesn't come to this."

Minister Bruce said: "You are crazy, this will trigger a civil war."

Su Yi said: "Believe me, it won't happen."

Minister Bruce said: "I don't care about your affairs. But what about the Yangtze River Estuary? The Russians, Americans, and even the French want to break out of war every day and want to drive you out of power."

The British and Su Yi cooperated so closely that the British had a dominant interest in China, which aroused strong dissatisfaction from the other three countries.

Su Yi said: "Minister Bruce, do you know what Basxali went to London for?"

Bruce said: "Lobby Prince Albert and lobby Congress to cancel the British Empire Fleet's navigation rights to the Yangtze River. But I tell you, it is impossible to succeed."

Su Yi said: "Then do you know what my exchange conditions are?"

Bruce said: "You say."

Su Yi said: "I entrusted the UK to help me build a new navy. Within eight years, we purchased equipment, warships, weapons, and personnel training from your country for more than 40 million taels."

For a moment, Minister Bruce was stunned.

Su Yi said: "Do you think such a huge benefit can be exchanged for you giving up the Yangtze River waterway?"

Minister Bruce thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No."

Su Yi said: "Can we postpone it for a few years?"

Minister Bruce said: "That...should be okay."

Su Yi said: "So, you must be consistent with London. For our common interests, you should work hard at the Yangtze River Estuary to prevent the war from happening."

Minister Bruce said: "Duke Suyi, I can stop the British fleet, and even very barely can stop the French fleet. But I certainly can't stop the United States and Russia."

"When the deadline is up, they will still open fire."

Su Yi said: "As long as the British fleet and the French fleet withdraw, it is enough. The remaining two countries..."

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

At the mouth of the Yangtze River, which was covered with war clouds, Su Yi's huge fleet stayed for two hours, and then went directly to sea.

The brothers of the Yangtze River Fleet trembled slightly when they saw the densely packed troops on Su Yi's fleet.

Did something big happen in the capital? Aren't there already 20,000 troops there?

Want more troops?

After leaving the Yangtze River estuary, Su Yi's fleet entered the sea and headed directly north.

Three days later, we arrived at Tianjin Pier.

Su Yi led the 300 guards to disembark as quickly as possible. More than hundreds of war horses were already prepared here.

He got on his horse and rushed directly towards the capital without stopping.

The remaining six thousand troops will continue to land, and they will first gather at the Tianjin Military Station.

As long as the order is given, he will enter Beijing immediately.

Running all the way without any pause.

next day!

Su Yi led three hundred guards and quickly entered the capital.

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

At this time, the entire capital city was already in turmoil.

No one even dared to watch the fun anymore. The people in the outer city kept their doors closed.

The bannermen in the inner city were agitated, and countless people came to support the Eight Banners soldiers in the palace.

Su Yi had been away from Beijing for nearly a month, and the situation in the entire capital was already in danger.

Once a conflict breaks out, it will be another military disaster, and I don’t know how many people will suffer.

The tragedy of two years ago is vivid to everyone.

Su Yi passed through the outer city, passed through the inner city, and came directly to the palace.

Half of the 4,000 new troops left behind in the capital were immediately separated and followed Su Yi.

At this time, the palace did not have such a large square, so it was crowded with people everywhere.

From a long distance away, I heard a thunderous shout.

"Remove Su Yi!"

"Queen Mother, come out!"

"Queen Mother, come out!"

"Taizu, Taizong, Holy Ancestor, please show your spirit, the Qing Dynasty is about to end." When we got closer, it was dark and dense.

I don’t know how many people are gathered here.

Ronglu's new Tianjin army deployed defenses in the palace as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Su Yi is here, Su Yi is here!"

Suddenly someone shouted, and countless Eight Banners soldiers rushed towards him like a tide.

Su Yi's 300 guards and the 2,000 new troops behind them immediately deployed their defenses on the spot.

At a glance, he saw the most conspicuous Prince Dun among the crowd, Yi Pei.

This rough man also gave Cixi a headache in history.

This time when they opposed military reform, Yi, Sushun and others were unwilling to take the lead, so everyone elected him to take the lead.

And this so-called chivalrous and courageous Hunren Prince also did his part to stand out.

Of course, in a sense, it was fortunate that he was there, so the two to thirty-eight thousand banner soldiers were still able to maintain order without causing chaos.

Su Yi shouted loudly: "Prince Dun, come here and talk."

Prince Dun said, "Okay, Su Yi, we just want to talk to you, so come up."

Outside the palace, a wooden platform was built.

Soon, Yi Pei's side dispatched dozens of people, and Su Yi's side dispatched dozens of people to set up defenses around the high platform and form a human wall.

Then, Su Yi went up to the high platform to negotiate with Yi Pei.

"Su Yi, what do you want to do? The Eight Banners Army is the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. If you want to abolish the Eight Banners Army, do you mean to break the foundation of the Qing Dynasty?"

Su Yi said: "Where was the Eight Banners Army when they rebelled? When the British and French forces invaded the capital, where were the Eight Banners Army?"

Yi Pei said: "Then innovation is all, why do we need to abolish it?"

Su Yi said: "Innovation, Prince Dun, I will give you these 100,000 Beijing Camp Eight Banners to innovate, and give you 10 million taels of silver. Can you transform them, even if they have half the combat effectiveness of my new army?"

"In the season of national crisis, raising more than 200,000 pieces of waste is of no use at all."

"The last time we fought against Britain and France, there were a total of 60,000 to 70,000 people, but they defeated less than 10,000 others. How many foreigners did the Eight Banners Army kill and wound in total? Less than ten, less than ten!"

"The only casualties among the foreigners were caused by the Tianjin New Army."

"And how many casualties did the Eight Banners and the Mongolian cavalry suffer in that battle? Four to five thousand people."

Yi Pei said: "The Eight Banners Army is the symbol of the Qing Dynasty. If you want to cut it off, do you also want to overthrow the Qing Dynasty? You are also saying that you are not Dong Zhuo or Cao Cao?"

Su Yi said: "When I say that there are no bannermen in the establishment of the new imperial army, are there no bannermen? On the contrary, half of the people in it are bannermen."

"The Eight Banners Army will be disbanded first, and then selected to join the Imperial Army."

"Besides, in the Army Department I proposed, aren't Ronglu, Seng Gelinqin, and Jing Shou all bannermen?"

"Is this my own army?"

Yi Pei's tone softened slightly and said: "Su Yi, the big defeat you mentioned happened two years ago. Only after you know your shame can you be brave. In the past two years, the Eight Banners Army has been training hard. I can see clearly that Clearly."

Su Yi said: "Prince Dun, our kind of negotiation will be useless for days and nights. Didn't you say that the Eight Banners Army has learned its shame and is brave, and has been trained to be elite? Let's not just talk in vain. We will see the real results on the battlefield. how?"

Prince Dun asked: "What do you mean?"

Su Yi said: "I will name ten people in my new army on the spot. You will also name a hundred people in the Eight Banners Army on the spot. Let's go to the Nanyuan Campus to fight. No matter life or death, we will fight hard." A battle."

"Ten of our new troops will fight against a hundred Eight Banners soldiers."

"With such a huge disparity, if the New Army still wins, it proves everything. It proves that the Eight Banners soldiers are so bad that they have to change."

As soon as these words came out, Prince Dun's expression changed.

Ten people against a hundred people from the Eight Banners?

Who are you looking down on?
Ten thousand people may indeed defeat a hundred thousand people.

But is it a dream for ten people to defeat a hundred people?

Yi Pei said: "The dismantling of the Eight Banners Army is a big deal, how can it be child's play?"

Su Yi said: "Winning or losing this battle does not determine whether the Eight Banners Army will be disbanded, but if the New Army wins, you two or thirty thousand Eight Banners soldiers will be withdrawn immediately. What's going on with the noise around the palace all day long?" ? This is disrespectful to the Queen Mother and disrespectful to the Emperor."

"Didn't you say that you have trained very hard in the past two years and your combat effectiveness has improved a lot? A hundred people, wouldn't you dare to fight against ten people from the new army?"

"You guys, not only have your fighting ability been ruined, but your spine has also been ruined?"

Su Yi's roar resounded throughout the sky.

Banner people are the most face-saving and the most intolerant of anger.

Prince Yi Pei of Dun was even more like this. When the British and French forces were about to attack, he kept saying that he was going to fight with a knife, and he also wanted to let the emperor take charge of the battle himself.

"Okay! Let's have a fight with you."

"I would like to see if your new army is really that powerful, and if the Eight Banners soldiers of the Qing Dynasty are really that miserable."

Next, Su Yi said directly: "My guard, select ten people and march out!"

"No..." Suddenly Su Yi said: "Prince Dun, come on, pick out ten people from my guard of three hundred people."

Prince Dun Yi was slightly startled, and then without any courtesy, he stepped forward and randomly selected ten people.

Su Yi said: "One hundred Eight Banners soldiers, Prince Dun, you can also order them."

For a moment, Yi Pei's face looked a little ugly, and the momentum of everyone around him was suddenly suppressed.

Originally, Su Yi's ten new soldiers were compared with one hundred Eight Banners soldiers, which was already a huge disparity.

Now, Yi Pei is actually asked to order troops?

Why do you look down on people?

However, Prince Yi Pei of Dun was not polite and immediately named a hundred of the most elite Eight Banners elites.

There are one hundred Eight Banners elites, fifty cavalry, and fifty infantry.

Half of them were equipped with bows and arrows, and half were equipped with carbines.

Su Yi said: "The troops named now will enter the palace immediately and accept the supervision of the Ronglu Tianjin New Army."

Immediately, one hundred elite Eight Banners elite cavalry and ten elite members of Su Yi's new army entered the palace.

They each entered the guard's barracks and had a good rest for a day, and then went to Nanyuan School Ground to fight tomorrow.

After everything was over, Prince Dun realized what he was doing.

How did things turn out like this?

Not for negotiation? Aren't you going to attack Su Yi?
Why did it become a practical exercise?

Ronglu and others sighed, and Su Yi immediately grasped the rhythm as soon as he appeared.

Moreover, the face-conscious Eight Banners disciples simply could not refuse his request.

There are a hundred people, but you don't dare to fight against ten people?

You don’t even have the guts to do that, and you still have the nerve to make trouble?
And actual combat is the best test of combat effectiveness. If the elites of the One Hundred and Eight Banners can't defeat ten Su Yi's new troops, doesn't that just prove that the Eight Banners' army is extremely bad?

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

In the palace, the queen mothers of the two palaces were slightly shocked when they heard this plan.

Is Su Yi so courageous?

One hundred people versus ten?

What a disparity.

However, this method is indeed justified, and these Eight Banners soldiers cannot refuse.

"Your Majesty Su Yi, please see the Queen Mother."

Su Yi, dusty and dusty, entered the hall.

"Hmph!" Empress Dowager Cixi scolded angrily: "Su Yi, look at the big trouble you have caused."

The Empress Dowager Ci'an who was standing next to her said, "Okay, Su Yi is also very resourceful. His method is very good, leaving these banner men speechless."

Empress Dowager Cixi said: "It's too risky. What if we lose? How will it end?"

Then, Yehenala said: "Su Yi, I also want to tell you my sincere words."

After a while, Empress Dowager Ci'an stood up and left, saying: "You guys talk."

Yehenara couldn't help but said: "Sister, why are you leaving?"

When you leave, it really seems like we have no one to see.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Your Majesty has not slept well these past few days. He was frightened and woke him up in the middle of the night. Let's go take a look at the Ai family."

Then, Empress Dowager Ci'an left without any explanation.

In the entire Sanxi Hall, only Su Yi and Yehenala were left.

However, the palace door is open.

Su Yi said: "You see, Queen Mother, I have said before that once I leave the capital, these Eight Banners soldiers will definitely take advantage of me."

Yehenara said: "I haven't asked you yet, what's going on at the mouth of the Yangtze River in the south? What are you going to do about the Russians in the north? In such a troubled time, why do you insist on proposing this military reform that subverts the foundation?"

Su Ye stepped forward, hugged the beautiful queen mother's waist, and said softly: "Queen Mother, you've been away for a month, and I missed you so much."

"You, you are crazy..." The beautiful Queen Mother whispered: "People come and go, if someone suddenly breaks in, it will be over."

"Let me go, let me go quickly."

Su Yi said: "Good Queen Mother, I miss you so much, can you bear to do this to me?"

"Don't talk crazy." The beautiful Queen Mother struggled hard and said: "Let me go, do you hear me? Otherwise, I will call someone."

Su Yi said: "If you let me kiss you one more time, I will let you go."

"No..." the beautiful Queen Mother said, "I warned you last time. This is the last time."

Su Yi said: "The last time was the last time last month."

"You, you are shameless." The beautiful Queen Mother said in a low voice: "Let me go, do you hear me? Otherwise, I will be really angry."

"Hold on, let me kiss you hard to relieve the pain of lovesickness. I'll let you go and talk about business again," Su Yi said.

The beautiful Queen Mother's face turned red, she gasped for air, and said angrily: "You damn thing, there will be a day when the palace will not spare you."

"Then hurry up, I will treat you as..."

Before she finished speaking, Su Yi held her cold face and kissed her hard.

But this time, it's completely French.

In fact, Su Ye's movements inside her lips turned the world upside down.

How could Yehenala withstand this? He had never had such an experience. And the door is open at this time, and someone will come in at any time.

This, this is even more exciting, and my heart seems to be beating out.

If someone rushes in and sees this scene at this time, what's the point?
The Queen Mother openly had an affair without even closing the door. It was so explosive.

They kissed for several minutes, and before she knew it, Su Yi's paws were already rubbing her hills.

Although Yehenala's size is not as good as that of Hong Renli, it is still quite impressive.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside. Although he was very careful, he was still heard.

The beautiful Queen Mother didn't know where the strength came from, and her heart trembled. Then she pushed Su Yi away suddenly and took a few steps back quickly.

Then, Yehenala gave him a sharp look, showing this indescribable charm.

You know, she clearly felt Su Yi's confrontation just now.

Then, the beautiful Queen Mother said: "Su Yi, I have been very worthy of you. The foreigners forced me to remove you from office, otherwise they would start a war, but I did not agree. Tens of thousands of people outside are forcing me to remove you, I was forced to announce that I would never disband the Eight Banners Army, but I didn’t agree.”

"They are forcing me like this, are you going to force me like this? One day, I will be forced to death by you people."

Su Yi whispered: "Good Queen Mother, how can I give up?"

"Hmph!" said the beautiful Queen Mother: "Now you are here to coax me with sweet words. Didn't you push me too hard earlier? You want to kill me."

Then, she frowned and said: "Su Yi, you are too rash. It is possible for ten thousand people to defeat one hundred thousand people. But it is too difficult for ten people to defeat one hundred people. You are still pretending, let Yi Ping be more careful. Soldier."

"I can tell you that all the ministers in the capital do not support you in abolishing the Eight Banners Soldiers. If your new army loses in full public view tomorrow, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Su Yi said: "What do you want?"

Yehenala said: "Have the palace always been surrounded like this? Are they allowed to shout Taizu, Taizong and Holy Ancestor every day? Listening to politics behind the curtain is the first time in history, and the name is not justified."

Su Yi said: "Good Zhen'er, do you want to remove me?"

"Don't yell." The beautiful Queen Mother rolled her eyes at him and said, "I won't remove you, but these countless people will definitely force me to declare that the Eight Banners Army will never be abolished. If you lose, don't blame me for announcing it in public."

Su Yi said: "What if we win?"

The beautiful Queen Mother said: "Let's wait until you win."

Then, Yehenala said: "Also, tomorrow's battle in Nanyuan, you should report it to me first and then make a decision, instead of killing it first and reporting it later."

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

No matter how lightly Su Yi teased the Queen Mother.

This is an extremely important political event.

It's just that Su Yi deliberately downplayed this atmosphere, trying hard to make state affairs seem like personal affairs between men and women, and lower Yehenala's wariness.

However, the entire capital city felt like it was facing a powerful enemy.

Tomorrow's Battle of Nanyuan spread throughout the capital in an instant.

In just one day, a huge storm arose.

Ten men from Su Yi's new army versus a hundred elite Eight Banners soldiers?

A decisive kill with real swords and guns?

Instantly attracted the attention of countless people.

Will this battle determine the fate of countless Eight Banners soldiers?

Will it also determine whether Su Yi's new policy can be implemented?

Of course, Su Yi didn't say that, and neither did Prince Dun.

It just means that if the elite Eight Banners lose, then these tens of thousands of people will have to evacuate and cannot continue to kowtow in front of the palace.

Once you withdraw, the momentum will dissipate.

In a sense, this battle is lost.

Moreover, if these one hundred Eight Banners elites really lose, how will the world think?

Do you think Su Yi's new policy is reasonable? Is it necessary to retain such a bad army?

That night!

Prince Dun came to the front of a hundred Eight Banners soldiers and said slowly: "Tomorrow's battle, all the ministers will be present, and the queen mothers of the two palaces will also be present."

"How important it is, I won't allow you to say more. It concerns the face of all Eight Banners soldiers, and also concerns the fate of countless Eight Banners soldiers."

"You should show your attitude to this king."

The leader of the Eight Banners elite said: "Your Majesty, we are not afraid of death. Even if we die, even if we are shattered into pieces, we will kill all ten of Su Yi's cubs."

"Yes, we are not afraid of death."

"Shatter them to pieces, and destroy all those ten people. Let this bastard Su Yi see clearly that we Eight Banners soldiers are not cowards. Open his dog eyes and see clearly."

These one hundred Eight Banners elites felt their blood boiling and wanted to go to the battlefield to fight immediately.

Prove it to the world, prove it to the Queen Mother of the two palaces.

On the other side, Su Yi faced these ten elite new troops.

Everyone also regards death as home.

In the past few days, they have been practicing this rifle all the time, and each of them has fired three to four hundred rounds.

This new gun is great. Not only does it fire quickly, it is also much easier to aim than the previous Enfield 1853.

Because Su Yi's blueprints were advanced, this group of elites could already reach a rate of fire of about 19 rounds per minute.

"Are you confident?" Su Yi asked.

"Have!"

"Are you sure?" Su Yi asked.

"Have!"

The ten elite new troops were calm and fiery.

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

next day!

Tens of thousands of troops, protecting the empress dowagers of the two palaces, and hundreds of ministers, marched southward, leaving the palace and heading to Nanyuan Campus.

Witnessing this sudden killing, Su Yi had planned it for a long time.

A few hours later!
The queen mothers of the two palaces, hundreds of ministers, a dozen Mongolian princes, and hundreds of Eight Banners generals all entered the school grounds and sat down.

About six years ago, Su Yi's new army made its first appearance at the Nanyuan Campus.

At that time, the military parade of Su Yi's new army amazed the audience.

But this time, it was much more dangerous.

Because it was a live-fire exercise, the battlefield was far away from the stands, beyond the range of all guns.

Moreover, an army of more than ten thousand people protected the two queen mothers and hundreds of ministers airtight.

More than dozens of people, holding binoculars, looked at the battlefield six to seven hundred meters away.

At this time, both armies had already entered the scene.

The distance between the two sides is four hundred meters.

Su Yi's new army had only a chest-high low wall.

On the other side of the one hundred Eight Banners soldiers, there was also a low wall.

The whole place was solemn and solemn!
In order to downplay the conflict, this decisive battle was named a military ceremony.

Prince Zheng Duanhua once again served as the Minister of Military Exercise.

Everyone could clearly see that the ten people on Su Yi's new army had serious but calm expressions.

But the one hundred Eight Banners elites had eyes like fire, full of anger and murderous intent.

"Mount!" came the command.

Fifty elite cavalrymen mounted their horses.

These one hundred Eight Banners elites were all wearing armor and looked majestic.

One hundred people, all in formation, can rush out with just one order.

Duan Hua, the minister of military exercises, came to the Queen Mother of the two palaces and said: "The Queen Mother, the two armies have been prepared. Do you want to start the military exercises?"

Everyone opens their eyes and ears.

It is really unimaginable that the fate of countless people will be determined by such a small actual combat exercise?
Cixi and Ci'an looked at each other and said, "Let's get started."

Prince Zheng Duanhua shouted loudly: "Start the military exercise, fire up the artillery!"

"Boom!" A cannon shot!
Suddenly, the decisive battle begins!
One hundred Eight Banners elites rushed out crazily with momentum like a rainbow.

Especially the fifty cavalry, they are really like guns and horses like dragons.

This momentum, this majesty.

It makes people dream back to the time when the Eight Banners entered the pass.

The ten people on Su Yi's new army side were arranged neatly and motionless.

Fifty Eight Banners cavalry entered within 300 meters.

Ten members of Su Yi's new army raised their rifles in unison and began to take aim.

"Three, two, one!"

"Fire!"

The ten-man commander gave an abrupt order.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."

The ten new troops kept aiming and shooting.

aim, shoot,
The speed is extremely fast, even exceeding the limit of normal training.

Just like that, fifty Eight Banners cavalry.

Keep falling.

They also bent their bows and arrows and continued to fight back.

They also raised their carbines and tried to fight back.

but……

Not at all.

It was a complete one-sided massacre.

These fifty Eight Banners cavalry were very brave. Even if their companions kept falling, they still charged, charged, charged desperately.

However, there are fewer and fewer people.

At last……

Only three people bravely rushed to the front of Su Yi's new army.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

These three Eight Banners cavalry waved their sabers and roared wildly as they charged towards Su Yi's new army.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

After the gunshot, the last three shocked riders fell off their horses.

So far, fifty elite cavalrymen of the Eight Banners had died cleanly.
