Tuqing: My first love was Cixi

Chapter 254 The king’s spirit has become! Su Yi’s great savior!
And this unparalleled achievement is a bit frightening.

Su Yi did not completely annihilate Fa Ni, but surrendered, completely institutionalized.

This was almost unacceptable to the Qing court.

If you were any other minister, even if you were at the level of Seng Gelinqin, what qualifications would you have to accept a rebellious surrender?

Especially that Hongtian Guifu, who was called the King of Heaven.

Although the Qing court did not recognize it, he still claimed to be the emperor.

Moreover, it has been rebellious for more than ten years and brought huge harm to the entire Qing Dynasty. It should be completely annihilated.

But now, no one dares to speak out.

The whole place fell into silence.

Because Su Yi had shown a strong confrontational nature a few years ago, when the late emperor was in power, he began to win over the rebellious senior officials.

He has never been an obedient minister.

If it were any other minister, he would have been frantically criticized by the traitors.

Moreover, there is a detail in Su Yi's memorial that is also shocking.

Change Jiangning Prefecture to Nanjing.

Even the Empress Dowager Cixi felt frightened after seeing it.

Many people even felt that they had become king after seeing this memorial.

Yes, it's this ridiculous feeling.

No matter how strong Su Yi was before, even when he repeatedly confronted the late emperor, and even when he entered the center forcefully, he still lacked the aura of a king.

Although he kept saying the worst plan before, he would return to Jiujiang and officially start the confrontation between the north and the south.

But in the final analysis, Su Yi only controlled one Jiujiang.

Although the remaining Zhejiang and Fujian are considered his territory, they are ultimately the territory of the imperial court.

They really broke up with each other, and the frontier officials of Wang Youling and Xu Youren were directly replaced. Not to mention that the Hunan Army controls several provinces, so Su Yi's Jiujiang is completely trapped in the cracks.

Besides, Su Yi had no one in his hands.

But now, the entire rebel area has surrendered, and a large number of high-level elites, including tens and hundreds of thousands of rebel troops, have surrendered.

If it really comes to a situation where North and South are in opposition.

This group of rebellious people were completely determined to follow Su Yi to the end.

The worst-case scenario.

Su Yi and the imperial court were completely opposed to each other, and the north and the south were divided.

Su Yi established political power in the south and made Nanjing the capital.

The British Empire is afraid to come forward to recognize it as soon as possible and provide full support.

Who in the entire Southeast can stop it?

Zeng Guofan?

The previous Hunan Army far surpassed Su Yi in terms of territory and army.

But now that the situation is changing, the Hunan Army is no longer Su Yi's opponent.

Su Yi's Southern Dynasty was built.

Faced with this unparalleled achievement, the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty remained as silent as a cicada, daring not to speak.

Tian Yugong, the minister of military aircraft, came out and said: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Queen Mother."

Zuo Zongtang came out and Chongen came out.

Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Queen Mother.

Then, all the civil and military officials came out of the queue and bowed and said: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Queen Mother."

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

After the dispersion of the dynasty, the Zhongcui Palace of Empress Dowager Ci'an.

Duan Hua said angrily: "What does he want to do? Is he still a descendant of our ancestors?"

"That's rebellion. He doesn't recognize his ancestors, Confucius and Mencius. How dare he accept surrender?"

"And before he surrendered, why didn't he report to the imperial court or the empress dowagers of the two palaces?"

"Hundreds of thousands of people have rebelled, and all of them are loyal to him. What does he want to do?"

Sushun and Zaiyuan also had red eyes.

What exactly do you, Su Yi, want to do?

We brothers fight against each other, why do we always do things that break the bottom line?
We didn’t stop you from entering the center, and we didn’t stop you from doing things.

It wasn't until you abolished the Eight Banners and massacred them that we couldn't stand it any longer, and then we came out to fight you again.

Aren’t we clan members enough for you?
Are we brothers not enough for you?

Are there not enough domestic slaves like the Eight Banners for you?
Before, you pretended that you wanted to make greater use of the Han people, so that was it.

Now, he still needs to use his hair to rebel.

Don’t you think that your ancestral country has been subverted enough?
In the final analysis, we treat you as a brother. Even if we win this time, we will let you go.

As a result, you would rather use Fa Ni than us brothers?
"Empress Dowager, what exactly does he want to do by changing Jiangning to Nanjing?" Duan Hua said: "Is this to establish a new Southern Dynasty?"

"He brought in a large number of rebels. In the future...does he want us to be ministers of the same court as these rebels, or does he want to establish a separate kingdom?"

"This slave can't figure out why he is so tormenting his ancestors' empire." Duan Hua couldn't help crying: "Doesn't he have a share in our ancestors' empire?"

As he spoke, Zai Ling and others could not help but have their eyes turn red.

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

Changchun Palace.

Yehenala also fell into silence.

Facing such a great victory and such a miraculous achievement, she should be ecstatic.

However, she was also frightened inside.

Su Yi did not report to the court, but directly recruited hundreds of thousands of rebels and accepted the false king as his student.

It was equivalent to taking over the entire rebellious imperial team.

To put it bluntly, even if the Southern Dynasty was directly established and its capital was Nanjing, Su Yi would already have a complete team.

"Why didn't he ask for such a big event?" Yehenala couldn't help but ask.

When the two of them were in love, Yehenara really made up for the love he had owed before.

At that time, she really took a lot of things lightly.

Including her own son, the little emperor, and even her own power.

A short-lived love brain, a short-lived head.

This time Su Yi had been away for four or five months. First he refused to comply with the order, and then without saying hello at all, he directly recruited hundreds of thousands of people to surrender.

Change Jiangning to Nanjing.

These major events made Yehenala gradually wake up.

He also gradually became frightened.

This forced him to face up to a problem. If Su Yi continued to do this, would this country still belong to the Qing Dynasty? Will she still be the Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty in the future?

Ronglu, who was beside him, also sighed deeply.

Master Su Yi's behavior has never happened before in history.

When Wang Mang did not usurp the throne, he was a humble gentleman, a loyal and capable minister.

Cao Cao's ambition was revealed early on, but there was a sense of rebellion from beginning to end.

Bad name, bad words.

And what about Su Yi?

Every thing he did was more treacherous than the last.

And he made no secret of it, but he had a strong sense of righteousness inexplicably.

This majestic feeling, I don’t even know where it comes from.

Yehenala said: "Ronglu, what should I do with the Ai family?"

This was the first time Yehenala considered this position.

Before, she felt that she was naturally on Su Yi's side, because she felt that no matter what she did, she was still the Queen Mother.

But is all this still certain?

Ronglu said slowly: "Master Su Yi, you always follow your own steps and are not influenced by anyone."

The words were cryptic, but the meaning was clear.

In Su Yi's heart, there was actually an answer and a result.

Everything he did was for this result.

If someone stands in the way of a person, he will kill someone; if someone stands in the way of a Buddha, he will kill the Buddha.

Yehenala said: "In other words, he has made all preparations."

Ronglu said: "Yes."

To recruit the entire Taiping Heavenly Kingdom team, no report was made in advance.

Do it first, report later.

Just to tell the court that the matter is a foregone conclusion.

Accept it and keep playing.

If you don’t accept it, then try another method of play.

After a while, Andhei's voice came from outside.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Prince Zheng is requesting an audience in Suzhong Hall."

Yehenala's face changed slightly, and she instinctively looked at Zhu Sanniang and others outside. Sushun, Duanhua and others who were previously hostile, now came to see her?

At this time, many people in the palace were Su Yi's people.

Sushun, Duanhua and others came to ask for an audience with Yehenala. If she did, the news would be directly heard by Su Yi.

So, she instinctively looked at Ronglu.

Ronglu said: "Don't worry about this. Mr. Su Yi is upright in this regard. He won't care too much about his deeds but not his heart."

So, Yehenala said: "Let them come in."

Sushun, Duanhua, Zaiyuan, Zai Ling and other four people came in, all knelt down and said: "I'm here to pay homage to the Queen Mother."

It has been almost a year, and none of these people have come to visit Yehenala alone.

Politics is like water, it moves with the waves.

Facing these last moments, they finally couldn't help but come to see the Empress Dowager Cixi and test her attitude.

Yehenala said: "Get up."

Duan Hua said: "Empress Dowager, Su Yi surrendered the entire rebellion team, accepted the false king as a student, and changed Jiangning to Nanjing. Can I tell you about it?"

Yehenarashi shook his head.

Duan Hua said: "He, he is too tyrannical."

"It's like this every time, do the big thing first, and then force all of us to make a choice."

“Either accept it or completely oppose it.”

"The Empress Dowager and the Emperor were kidnapped from the Chengde palace before. That's it. Let us choose either civil war or compromise and let him enter the center."

"Later, when the Eight Banners Soldiers were to be disbanded, the same thing happened, and the massacre started directly. We were forced to make a choice, either accept it or oppose it."

"This is still the case now. The entire rebel team has been recruited and forced to make a choice."

"Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" Duan Hua said, "Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?"

"With his talent and ability, who can compare with him in ten years? He is already the Duke of Feng'en Town, and there is no obstacle to his advancement."

"Ten years later, he will be the political king. To put it even more cruelly, his relationship with the Queen Mother will make it possible for him to become the regent."

"Why are you so urgent? It's driving us all to nowhere."

Yehenara's face turned red. Wasn't the regent just a metaphor for Dorgon?

Yehenala couldn't help but think of Ronglu's words. Su Yi had a set goal. He had always followed his own steps and was not influenced by anyone.

"The slaves can step down, and Sushun can also step down." Duan Hua said: "But what will happen in the future? Will the hundreds of rebellious people enter the court? In the future, will only half of the people in the center of the court be rebellious? "

"It's not impossible for him to do big things, but why do he have to be in such a hurry?"

"Slow down, isn't it good? Isn't it okay?"

"To be fair, when he entered the center, weren't we enough noble enough?"

In the first few months after Su Ye entered the center, everyone got along really happily. Everyone looked forward to Su Ye being able to change the Qing Dynasty and the new dynasty.

If I think you are the most capable among brothers, then let you come and we will watch from the side, and we are even willing to help.

As a result, Su Yi moved too much and they couldn't accept it.

Su Yi was also helpless. Of course he wanted to be harmonious, saying hello to me and hello to everyone.

But, how is it possible.

Now, Su Yi was left with the two empress dowagers and the imperial court with a huge problem.

Or accept it all.

If there is a little bit of denial, then it is a total denial.

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

Nanjing!

"Now it depends on the court's reaction." Lin Shaozhang said: "Whether it will be fully accepted or completely rejected."

Li Xiucheng said: "But most officials in the Qing court must be very uncomfortable. One day, they may need to serve as officials in the same court as those of us who are rebellious."

Chen Yucheng said: "I really wish that the Qingyaogu court would directly deny it, and then we would support the commander-in-chief as the new king of heaven."

"No big deal, just let Tiangui give in."

This is what you dare to say.

Hong Renli said: "The commander-in-chief will not be the king of heaven. What he wants is to unite the entire country and the power of all nations."

Then, Hong Renli said sarcastically: "Chen Yucheng, now you can see the commander's courage."

Chen Yucheng curled his lips, but he was convinced in his heart.

I didn’t feel it at first, but now it’s becoming clearer and clearer.

It was such a shocking thing for Su Yi to recruit the entire top management of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The Qing court had such a capacity to recruit and surrender a Wei Jun and give it to a general.

But to surrender the entire kingdom of heaven is too subversive.

This proves that Su Yi would rather risk losing the recognition of the imperial court center than to completely surrender the entire Heavenly Kingdom team.

How courageous is this?

Lin Qirong said: "The commander-in-chief has been leaving Tianjing alone. I was thinking before that he needed to destroy us at the most critical moment and make great contributions to the Qing court. In the end...it turned out to be that he surrendered the entire kingdom."

Everyone thought so, even Su Yi thought so.

Use force to directly attack Tianjing and completely eliminate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regime.

However, a few core elites were recruited and surrendered.

But it has evolved so far that it has turned out to be the surrender of the entire kingdom of heaven.

But...this is also cause and effect.

A few years ago, Su Yi had been infiltrating the senior officials of the Kingdom of Heaven, constantly sending books, and recruiting the senior officials of the Kingdom of Heaven to surrender theoretically and spiritually. This day was destined to come.

Once the spiritual pillar of the Kingdom of Heaven collapses, the entire Kingdom of Heaven will instantly fall to Su Yi's side.

At this time, Su Yi had only two choices, accept or reject.

If he has the courage, accept it!
Because deep down, he sympathizes with and even approves of these people.

Standing on the side of the people is really not something you say casually, but comes from the heart.

"If Sushun, Duanhua and others want to attack the commander, now is the best opportunity."

"The commander-in-chief changed his name from Jiangning to Nanjing and surrendered the entire rebel team. His rebellious intentions are clearly revealed." Chen Yucheng said: "This can also be echoed by hundreds of people in the court. Most people in the Qingyao court probably don't want to be in the same court with us. Be a minister."

Lin Shaozhang said: "They probably don't dare, because the commander-in-chief is playing a bright card. Once they use this reason to attack the commander-in-chief, they will force the commander-in-chief to establish a separate Southern Dynasty. Now the climate has really changed."

"Sometimes, it's good to have clear ambitions. People will be more accepting of what really happens in the future."

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

The imperial court center still could not give clear feedback.

The progress is stuck there.

Deny Su Yi's extraordinary achievements? cannot.

If you affirm his merit, you will have to accept the entire rebellion team, and you will start to reward him based on his merit.

Therefore, there will be no discussion in the court meetings these days.

Don't dare to talk.

After the civil and military officials celebrated the victory for a while, they began to put it aside.

However, soon another huge piece of bad news broke the silence.

"Six hundred miles to expedite, six hundred miles to expedite."

"Miao Peilin pretended to surrender, and Ma Ronghe pretended to surrender. The Monk King's army was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of rebels in Chenliu, and was in danger."

This bad news once again exploded throughout the court.

But for some reason, Sushun, Duanhua and others were relatively calm after hearing the news.

Maybe it's because I'm already mentally prepared.

Since Chen Yucheng could feign surrender, why couldn't Miao Peilin and Ma Ronghe.

Although he appeared calm, this incident was extremely deadly.

After Empress Dowager Ci'an heard this, her entire face turned pale instantly.

This... what should I do?

The expressions of the civil and military officials in the court, especially the princes of the Eight Banners, also completely changed.

The more than 10,000 elites under the Monk King are not only the most powerful force among the bannermen, they are also the seeds.

Once all these elites are lost, then...the Eight Banners will have no power in their hands.

But what next?
Must be saved!

How to save?
Who to send to rescue?

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

The Russian minister and the American minister fell into ecstasy when faced with this situation in the Qing Dynasty.

The Russian envoy took the initiative to find Prince Zheng Duanhua.

"We are willing to provide the greatest help." The Russian Minister said: "We are willing to withdraw from Aihui City, and we are willing to completely withdraw from Heilongjiang."

"We are willing to provide weapons and even troops to help you rescue Senggelinqin and help you eliminate the rebels."

"We are willing to help you train your troops."

Duan Hua said: "What are the conditions?"

The Russian minister said: "Reject Su Yi."

Duanhua fell into silence.

The Russian envoy said: "We are willing to provide an army of 10,000 people and give you the command to help you rescue Senggelinqin."

"Li Hongzhang has a foreign gun team under his command, so it's normal for your Qing government to have a foreign gun team, isn't it?"

"We are providing an army of 10,000 troops unconditionally."

"And don't be afraid. Su Yi can stand on his own in Nanjing, and don't be afraid of the civil war between the North and the South. We and the Americans are completely on your side. In order to help you eliminate the rebellion, we can send more troops."

The Russian minister didn't even have time to report to the Russian Emperor, so he took matters into his own hands.

A qualified diplomat would never miss this golden opportunity.

As long as it promotes the division of the north and the south of the Qing Dynasty, it will be ten times or a hundred times the benefits.

In the future, the entire Heilongjiang, most of Mongolia, and most of the northwest will become the land of the great Russian emperor.

What does a mere five or six hundred thousand square kilometers count?
What can be obtained by then is millions of square kilometers.

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

Inside Sushun Mansion.

"What should we do?" Duan Hua said, "What should we do next?"

"Senggelingqin's more than 10,000 people are the most elite armed forces of our bannermen. We must save them."

"Who can save me?"

Sushun said: "Several plans."

"The first plan is to plead guilty to the Queen Mother of the West and ask her to send Ronglu's third division and Jingshou's garrison division to rescue."

"The second option is to ask Zeng Guofan to lead his army to save him."

"The third option is to talk to Su Yi."

Duan Hua sneered: "The Russians said they are willing to send 10,000 people as mercenaries unconditionally and leave them completely to our command to rescue Seng Gelinqin. They are also willing to withdraw from Aihun City unconditionally and completely withdraw from Heilongjiang."

Sushun said: "The only condition is that we completely deny Su Yi and force him to stand on his own in the south, right?"

Duan Hua said: "Yes." "Hehehe..." Sushun let out bursts of sad laughter.

"Do these Russians really think of us as trash? Do they really think of us as the unworthy descendants of our ancestors?"

Next, several people began to discuss these three plans.

"The Queen Mother of the West may not dare to agree to the first plan." Sushun said: "The army in Ronglu's hands is the only one that fully obeys her orders. She is afraid of losing it in the Henan battlefield. And once she sends Ronglu, it means Falling out with Su Yi."

Although it won't reach the point of falling out, there will definitely be obvious cracks.

"The second option is to ask Zeng Guofan to send troops. He will probably accept the order, but the speed will not be fast. By the time his Hunan army arrives, Senggelinqin's army may have suffered heavy casualties."

"The third option..."

Sushun didn't say anything.

Now is the most favorable moment for Su Yi.

It was completely satisfying for him to allow hundreds of thousands of rebels to kill all the elite bannermen under Seng Gelinqin.

Even if Su Yi sends troops to rescue him, how much price will the prince of the Eight Banners have to pay?
"Let's go with the first plan." Duan Hua said: "Please ask the Queen Mother to come forward and put pressure on the Queen Mother of the West to send Ronglu and Jingshou to send troops."

In the end, several people all nodded in agreement.

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

Sushun, Duanhua and others once again went to Zhongcui Palace to see Empress Dowager Ci'an and revealed the plan.

This young and beautiful Queen Mother had a hard time making up her mind when things happened in the past.

Only this time, it was very decisive.

Because she understands the seriousness of this all too well.

If these more than 10,000 elite bannermen are lost, the Eight Banners will completely lose their strength.

That would be a fatal blow to her, the Queen Mother, and to the Emperor.

So, Empress Dowager Ci'an once again showed off to the Changchun Palace.

Last time, she went to the Changchun Palace because the little emperor looked at the erotic album, and had a violent attack.

Since then, a rift has appeared between the two queen mothers.

For almost a year, she did not go to Changchun Palace, and Yehenala did not come to Zhongcui Palace.

At this time, Yehenala was looking at her belly in front of the mirror.

Hearing Zhu Sanniang's voice, he was immediately startled.

Are you coming to catch someone raping again?
Did something happen to me?

Because the memory of the last time was too profound.

Could it be that my pregnancy was discovered?

She almost instinctively wanted to shrink her belly.

Next, under the waiter of Zhu Sanniang, Yehenala put on loose clothes to cover up her belly that was filled with dragon spirit.

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

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "I have one thing to ask my sister."

elder sister?

Hearing this title, Yehenala could not help but tremble slightly.

Although I am two years older than you, you, the Queen Mother, call me sister?

Yehenala said quickly: "Don't dare to shout like this, you are my sister."

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Seng Gelinqin was surrounded in Chenliu. The army in Shengbao's hands could not defeat hundreds of thousands of rebels, but King Seng's men are the most elite force of our banner people and had to be saved."

Yehenarashi nodded.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "So, I want Ronglu and Jingshou to lead the army to rescue. How about it?"

Well? !

Yehenala's heart tightened. The other party's sister was really expensive.

Her inner instinct was to refuse.

Before, her whole heart was tied to Su Yi, and she even had the illusion that the two of them were one.

But after Su Yi resisted the decree, she knew that the only thing she could control was Ronglu's army.

There are hundreds of thousands of rebels in Henan, and the most important thing is that Su Yi's role in them is unpredictable.

Asking Ronglu and more than 10,000 people to rescue them really felt like fighting a fire with a salary.

What if Su Yi feels that killing Seng Gelinqin and the more than 10,000 elite bannermen is not enough, and also wants to kill Ronglu and more than 10,000 people?
On the surface, there are more than 10,000 people with honor and wealth plus more than 10,000 people with long life, which means there are 30,000 troops.

In addition to the more than 30,000 Shengbao people and the more than 10,000 people from Senggelinqin.

In total, there are more than 70,000 people. It is said that the probability of victory is very high.

However, there may be some trace of Su Yi in it.

What if Su Yi's elite troops got mixed up with these rebels and laid a dragnet? Wouldn't it mean that no matter how many troops were invested, they would be ruined?
It's so scary.

However, faced with Empress Dowager Ci'an's request, she could not directly refuse.

"Okay!" Yehenala agreed directly.

Hearing such a decisive answer, Empress Dowager Ci'an breathed a long sigh of relief. The Ai family had not misjudged the person.

You have lived up to my previous love and care.

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

Then, Yehenala immediately received Ronglu.

"Do you know what to do?"

Ronglu said: "I know this."

"Our army is the lifeblood, and it will continue to expand in the future. It must not be compromised."

"Even if the entire army on the Monk King's side is destroyed, our army cannot be damaged."

Yehenala closed her beautiful eyes and said nothing.

Ronglu said: "The slave will be very eager. After meeting the Queen Mother, he will immediately go to the Queen Mother to express his determination, and then immediately leave for Tianjin, and then assemble and set off in the shortest possible time."

"But the rainy season is coming, and we will definitely have to spend a long time on the road."

"So even if something unexpected happens, it's not our fault."

"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, can't blame the Queen Mother anyway."

"but……"

Yehenala said: "But what?"

Ronglu didn't say anything because he shouldn't have said it.

As time went by, the Queen Mother's pregnancy became more and more obvious, and she really needed to find an opportunity to hide her from the world.

Yehenala's face turned red, but her mood was extremely complicated.

Ronglu said: "I resign."

Next, Ronglu immediately asked to see Empress Dowager Ci'an, and Jingshou was also there.

The two men expressed their determination to the Empress Dowager Ci'an that they would send troops as quickly as possible to save the Senggelinqin tribe.

Save the elite Eight Banners.

After meeting the Empress Dowager Ci'an, the two people immediately left the palace and left the capital.

Jing Shou gathered his troops in Beijing.

Ronglu hurried to Tianjin overnight, changing horses constantly without stopping at all.

After arriving in Tianjin, he immediately gathered his troops and led his troops to leave Tianjin and rush to Henan without making any stops.

However, this will face a problem.

Jing Shou's army accounts for nearly half of the capital's strength, if he leads all his troops to leave.

Then, wouldn’t the entire capital fall into the hands of Zhang Guoliang’s garrison?

Therefore, the Queen Mother ordered nearly 10,000 people training in Tianjin to temporarily join the garrison division and immediately go to Beijing.

These nearly ten thousand people were the group of people who were eliminated when Su Yi was training the main army division.

The imperial court was unwilling to give up these troops, so they participated in the training camp again, hoping to make them become second-line garrison divisions.

However, with such back and forth, Jing Shou was very slow to send troops.

It was necessary to wait until nearly ten thousand people from Tianjin entered Beijing before Jingshou would lead his army.

On Ronglu's side, Feng Feng Huo Huo left Beijing as quickly as possible and led his army to leave Tianjin as quickly as possible.

But halfway through, the speed immediately slowed down.

There was no way, it was raining heavily.

Flash floods.

The army's baggage and artillery were too heavy.

In this way, if you want to save Seng Gelinqin, you have to wait until the year of the monkey.

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

More than 10,000 people in Senggelinqin have been surrounded for some time.

Several battles have been fought.

His more than 10,000 elite troops were still very powerful in fighting, repelling the rebel attacks again and again.

Moreover, more than 30,000 people who had won the victory also rushed to the battlefield and cooperated with Senggelinqin to attack from inside and outside. However, the combat effectiveness of these 30,000 people was very low.

Moreover, the most critical thing for the new army is ammunition.

In addition, half of the more than 10,000 elite monks and kings are cavalry. How can the cavalry defend the city?
When the ammunition was exhausted, the combat effectiveness of the more than 10,000 elite men under his command began to decline sharply.

And the most fatal thing is that there is too little food in Chenliu County.

We have experienced several military disasters before, and we don’t have much population and food resources. If we use up an army of 10,000 to 20,000 people at once, how can we have enough food?
Of course, there is no danger of starving to death.

Because there are many war horses, they can kill horses to satisfy their hunger.

But the war horses have nothing to eat, so how can they fight?
Seng Gelinqin killed the Mongolian horse first.

The Ili horses of the main cavalry were foreign horses, and they were really reluctant to kill any of them.

But I also watched them getting hungrier and thinner.

Seeing this scene, Seng Gelinqin was heartbroken.

The more than 30,000 people led by Shengbao could not be counted on. At first, King Monk was still confident, thinking that after establishing a stable foothold in Chenliu County, he could break through with the help of these more than 10,000 elites.

At the beginning, it indeed showed such a strong momentum.

If he just wanted to let thousands of elite cavalry under his command break through, then he could definitely do it.

But what about the more than 10,000 infantrymen?
Should we give up everything?
There are also members of the Eight Banners New Army here.

If you want to break through, break through all.

Just with this mentality, more than 10,000 people were completely trapped here.

The combat effectiveness dropped sharply, and the elite war horses had no fodder and no strength.

The more than 30,000 people who secured victory were too incompetent.

Seng Gelinqin looked at the more than 10,000 elites and recalled the overwhelming momentum on the battlefield in Shandong a few months ago.

How majestic? How powerful?
Why does the combat effectiveness keep declining?

Of course he knew the answer, he even saw the answer.

Gold and silver jewelry.

In the battle in Shandong, the key battle was fought by more than 10,000 elites.

So the biggest seizures are also from this group of people.

Everyone made a fortune and plundered wherever they fought.

With more money, the desire to fight will fade away.

Especially in the past few months after entering Henan, with the surrender of Miao Peilin and Ma Ronghe, all the cities were captured with almost no effort.

There was no fighting for several months, and training was also wasted.

Seng Gelinqin saw with his own eyes that these people gained weight as if they were blowing air.

How can this combat effectiveness not be reduced?

It is useless to teach others.

Things teach people, and they become clear in an instant.

Seng Gelinqin was even certain that within two years at most, this elite group would completely degenerate into the same waste as the previous Eight Banners.

If he could escape this time, he would do his best to retrain this elite group.

You must follow the rules and regulations set by Su Yi before, train to the death, and manage to the death.

but……

Can you still escape?

If the new army runs out of ammunition, it loses 80% of its combat effectiveness.

Where are the imperial reinforcements?

Why haven't you come to the rescue yet?

If we don't come to the rescue, the most elite force of the Eight Banners in the imperial court will really be lost here.

He could feel that Miao Peilin's army was not active at the beginning and always wanted to stay on the front line.

But as the battle deepened, the hatred and bloodiness were directly brought out.

Because they fight each other, the more casualties there are, the greater the hatred.

And the worse news is that there may be more and more rebels.

The Nien troops in Shandong and Henan were like sparks of fire. When the imperial court won a great victory, many Nien troops fled directly into the countryside and became civilians.

Now that the situation has reversed, the hidden Nien troops have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

And the even worse news is that the rebels from the northwest may invade Henan.

During this time, I have heard that something terrible is brewing in the northwest.

Once it is revealed, the world will look at it with suspicion.

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

Some time passed.

The quartermaster came to report: "King Monk, maybe... he wants to kill the Yili horse."

Seng Gelinqin said in a trembling voice: "You can't kill. You can't kill elite war horses. They are the lifeblood of our cavalry."

In order to train into an elite cavalry, Su Yi paid a huge price to buy expensive war horses everywhere.

In the past, it was just a matter of killing Mongolian horses, but now the most elite war horses are killed for meat?
The quartermaster cried: "King Monk, I don't want to kill you, but if I don't, the city will run out of food."

"Besides, those Ili horses only eat grass every day and have become extremely thin. The grass in the city has also been eaten up. Even if the horses are not killed, they will starve to death."

Seng Gelinqin roared: "Reinforcements from the imperial court? Tianjin is so close to Kaifeng, even if we crawl, we should be able to reach it."

He looked at the densely packed war horses, all skinny and thin.

Many war horses are already sick.

Even many people in the army are already sick.

Because this county is too small, more than 10,000 people and thousands of war horses are squeezed in.

The sanitary conditions are not good, so how can we not get sick?
Seng Gelinqin's eyes were filled with tears. He had known that he should have let the elite cavalry break out, but the remaining 10,000 people were left here.

It would be nice to be able to break out with a few thousand people.

Standing at the top of the city, looking out at the dark and boundless rebels.

Hundreds of thousands of people could really surround Chenliu County.

Where are the reinforcements?
Where are the reinforcements?
Are the princes of the imperial court just watching these ten thousand elite Eight Banners being buried here?
Seng Gelinqin staggered down the city wall and returned to the simple tent.

………………

Early the next morning, Senggelinqin got up early as usual.

As a result, I felt like I couldn't get up, and my whole body was spinning.

When I touched my forehead, I felt a high fever.

He, the coach, actually fell ill.

This is again a matter of military discipline.

Chenliu County is too small, with only a few wells in it.

The weather was getting hotter, and the bodies of the dead people and horses began to rot.

If hygiene is not respected even a little bit, bacteria will grow everywhere and plague will begin to appear, although there will be no widespread outbreaks.

If the rules and regulations of the Empire's new army were strictly followed, this situation would not have happened.

At this time, a shocking war drum sounded outside.

There were also countless killing sounds.

The rebels began to attack the city again, which seemed so thrilling.

Senggelinqin felt dizzy for a while and said loudly: "Come here, please wear armor for me. I want to fight on the city wall."

"King Monk, you have a high fever and are so ill. How can you fight?"

Seng Gelinqin shouted: "Stop talking nonsense."

Then, a few people carried his heavy armor and helped him put it on.

The dozens of kilograms of armor were no problem for him before, but now they are as heavy as a mountain. After putting them on, he can't breathe.

He endured the pain, made a determined expression, took the weapon, and walked out.

Still walking like a dragon and a tiger, wanting to be seen as majestic and unstoppable.

However, it was only less than ten steps.

I felt like my eyes were turning black and my whole body was cold.

Hold on, hold on, hold on!

Seng Gelinqin, Changshengtian is watching you.

Master Daoguang is watching you.

The late Emperor is watching you.

However, he couldn't hold on after all.

Halfway through the last step, he fell hard to the ground.

The people around them rushed forward desperately, shouting loudly: "Monk King, Monk King, Monk King!"

And at the same time!
A few dozen miles to the south, a black line appeared.

Then, countless black spots.

A series of horns sounded.

Countless cavalrymen rushed over.

Reinforcements are coming.

However, it was not reinforcements from the imperial court, but reinforcements from Su Yi.

Wang Shiqing's elite cavalry.

Behind him were tens of thousands of elite infantrymen led by Su Yi.

What Su Yi has always said is that this is the battle and rejuvenation of the entire Chinese nation.

However, he still did not want to give up any nation unless he had to.

He still wants to give it a chance.

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

Next up!
Su Yi's army surged in like a fierce tide.

Even though the distance was farther, they arrived at the battlefield earlier.

In his coma, Seng Gelinqin seemed to hear the sound of fighting and iron horses, as well as the bursts of cannons.

The chants of countless people were heard.

Countless roars were heard.

Fight.

fighting!

And his own body seemed to be experiencing a fight.

Just like that, I don’t know how long it’s been!

Finally, Seng Gelinqin opened his eyes.

Changshengtian, am I dead?

Because, after he opened his eyes, the first person he saw was Su Yi.

Note: I went out this afternoon and didn't come back until after five o'clock, so I'm so sorry for writing so late and being embarrassed to write a single chapter.

Dear benefactors, can I still ask for a monthly ticket? It's the last day of this month, don't waste it, thank you sir.
