late Qing Dynasty arrest

Chapter 508 Unstable factors in the army

Cao Zhongquan's figure is slightly fatter, and it's normal for people to reach middle age. He used to be a big fat man. After nearly ten years of military service, his figure is getting better and better

After smoking a bag of cigarettes, Cao Zhongquan tapped the pipe three times on the side of the kang, and his nephew Cao Keding immediately handed over the big teapot.Cao Zhongquan took the big teapot, turned his head to the spout, and drank a few sips of tea.

"Hey! I have to pay back the money, you guys have to find a way to make money. My money was given to Marshal Ma to buy foreign guns and cannons, and the entire 12000 taels of silver or jewelry was taken to Marshal Ma. What [-]%, [-]% Fuck, in the end it’s just skinning me. Little Wuzi is here, he knows what’s going on, and there’s no room for maneuver.” Cao Zhongquan almost smashed the teapot in anger, and glanced at the people in the room.Although everyone has the same status, they form a team of their own, and they are all generals in name, taking orders from the fifth commander, Chen Lin.But these four generals were his former subordinates, so he still had to make up his mind about any major issues.

Cao Kewu used to be Cao Zhongquan's groom. He was a big and thick man, and he was loyal to Cao Zhongquan. Everything he owned was rewarded by his master Cao Zhongquan, including his first wife.Then he said: "Marshal Ma, there is nothing you can do with your military orders to overwhelm Master Cao. What you said was very good at the beginning. Ma **, the son of Ma Hualong in Jinjibao, was present, and his chest was loudly slapped. He said that it must be shipped before spring. But now I haven’t seen a single gun, so Ma Hualong doesn’t want us Dong Zhiyuan’s [-]th Battalion to be strong, cheat us of money, and arm ourselves. He is a selfish villain, and he is still in an alliance with him. If Ma Hualong would send troops to support him We, I crawled from here to the well and jumped straight in."

Cao Zhongquan waved his hand and said, "Old man, don't talk so far, we don't care about gaining and losing now. Marshal Ma can't play against Ma Hualong, and it's useless to talk about the relatives of the ancestors. There is only one emperor's throne, and everyone wants to grab it. If I have a strong family , and in a few days the emperor's addiction will let each of you guard a big city, and Lanzhou will let my son look after my house." [

"Father, you're talking too far, let's get down to business." Cao Keliao glared at his father, throwing a childish tantrum. Isn't this nonsense, he wants to occupy Lanzhou with so little troops.

Cao Zhongquan sat cross-legged on the kang with two legs, and said with a smile: "Isn't God helping the rain, I'm fine today, let's drink three cups together later, don't care about the order of hanging hair, who will take care of you. I heard what you said just now. The Chu army is too strong. Feng Xiaobao didn't even live a day, and he didn't even get caught in today's rain. I also want to be a national hero and fight for independence for our Hui people. But in this environment It’s different, the twister is gone, the main force of the Qing army is overwhelmed, and we’re all done for if the fight continues. Is it useful to rely on the Russians? The serfs in the Russians’ own country are rioting, and the officers are still assassinating the tsar. The army is unreliable. We can only survive on our own. As for the brutality of the Manchus, we have never seen anything in the past. We ourselves are no worse than the Manchus. The days of being a landlord have not yet passed. What do you get? Except for more mouths to eat and drink, nothing much comes out."

Feng Mingzhi sighed: "There are more widows, and the number is increasing every day. Today, there is a lot of crying in the city. It's too miserable."

"Hey!" The five people sighed together, showing a bit of humanity, heartbroken for the suffering of the people of their own nation.For people of other ethnic groups who died right under their noses, they would not even shed a single tear, but instead had a tyrannical pleasure in killing.

"It's time to eat, let's eat first." Cao Zhongquan's four wives came in with dishes, and a table was set up.

The people in the city implement a rationing system and eat bran and swallow vegetables.But as an officer, he ate and drank a lot. To rebel is to establish a new privileged class. After national independence, it is not for them, the founding heroes, to enjoy life.Most of the big brothers who rebel are drunk today, not to mention that they have seen the coffin in front of them, so how can they live economically.

Feng Mingzhi stood up and called out: "Sister, you watch for us at the door, my brother-in-law drinks too much, he will slip up."

"Hey! We will stand guard for you." Cao Zhongquan's four wives walked out and set up four guard posts.Cao Zhongquan had more than four women. These four women belonged to his wives, and the other women belonged to playthings. They were exactly the same as the Ji family in the Qing Dynasty. A man with the right to own a gun could not buy a house or land, so he searched the harem.The Hui people's national independence and liberation movement will not engage in women's liberation movement, and women are still oppressed.

After a round of drinking, Cao Zhongquan put down his glass and said, "This uprising is a heart-wrenching uprising. You have all seen it. The Han people are fighting with us. They are all desperate. Although we all die together, the number of Hui people is as large as that of the Han people." How many people. If the fight continues, our Muslims will lose their species. How can we build the Uyghur Kingdom? Are we waiting for the family to be exterminated? Or flee abroad and recognize a Russian as a father. How different is this from recognizing Manqing as a monarch and father? You are deceiving yourself. I think we should learn from our ancestors and recognize Manqing as a master again. There is no shame in surrendering. People have to kneel down to recognize their masters. This time it failed. It was the wrong time. We returned to the Uighur Kingdom. I calculated that at least 600 years ago, the bones were all turned into ashes. Let’s make a big Qing The magistrate should be responsible, and get another sum of money back, do you think it's okay?"

"But we have too few people, and the west gate of the city is full of Chen Shuai's cronies, so we can't take it down." Cao Keding and the others had the same attitude. They all listened to Cao Zhongquan, but they had concerns in their hearts, and they couldn't beat the fifth commander, Chen Lin. And Qi Shuai Feng Junfu's men.

Cao Zhongquan shook his head and said: "I don't do business at a loss. The west gate of the city is the escape route for the fifth commander Chen Lin and the seventh commander Feng Junfu. They are the most concerned. Will they really live and die with Yongyangfu City? If they will, then they won't." They will flee to Dong Zhiyuan. Yongyang Fucheng has become a mess, and the two generals will still flee. As long as there is a way out, this kind of people will put oil on the soles of their feet. We will not play with them. Humans are extinct first, and we don’t even have half of the horses, which means that at least half of us will die, and our wives and children will die. What should we do? Ke Liao, you go out of the city at night, go to the Qing army camp, go to Xu Zhanbiao, and negotiate with the Qing army. We let the Qing soldiers come in from the north gate of the city, dig tunnels, and climb the city wall. It is up to Deputy Marshal Xu. Oh! You must meet Li Guolou and ask clearly how much money our contribution is worth. If there is no 4 taels of silver, there is no need to talk about it. This is our bottom line, and if we ask how much the heads of Chen Shuai and Feng Shuai are worth, maybe we can get a vote?" Cao Zhongquan gulped it down excitedly, his face showing yearning for money, He knows a little about Li Guolou's deeds, 10 taels of silver is a bit exaggerated, and he can't get all the merits, it is impossible to dedicate the entire city of Yongyang Prefecture.If he can get a large reward if he sells back to the army, he will not want his ancestors, and agrees with Emperor Zhi as his father.

"Father, there are also five handsome people in the north of our city, so what should we do?" Cao Keliao scratched his head, a little worried.

"Idiot! Wealth and wealth are in danger, set a time, and we will directly overthrow the five commanders. You are stupid, you don't kill the army, you just get money, you think it's a business." Cao Zhongquan figured it out, Dong Fuxiang was able to turn the gun Aiming at his compatriots, he is also a poisonous spider.

"Brother-in-law, do you want to find some more helpers? Brother Zhang and I are sworn brothers, so I will definitely let him participate." Feng Mingzhi lowered his voice, as if he was afraid that someone would hear him, but in fact, the sound of the rain drowned out everything around him.

"You are also a fool, and you are still sworn brothers. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang are also sworn brothers, and they were crushed by brothers. Don't say a single one, let him join if you shout when it is activated. When it is activated, someone will follow What we did, you say it now, long nights, long dreams, talkative wives at home, we are all finished. If you have any opinions, feel free to raise them. In the future, we must avoid suspicion and don’t be together.” The people from "Romance" have planned the layout of launching a sneak attack without leaking, and they can't find any mistakes.

Cao Keding sighed in admiration: "Uncle's brilliant move, my nephew admires it, but I will go out of the city. Ke Liao is too weak. If he is scared by the Qing army, he will not pay a high price. I can grit my teeth and not let go. , I asked my uncle to get a seventh-rank official hat, and a real one, and we can also be mayors."

Cao Zhongquan was clear-headed, thinking about it was right, nodded and said: "Well, Keding is going, I don't worry, I'm leaving tonight. Don't come back before it's too late, I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow night."

The five sneaked around, drank wine, and didn't dare to drink too much. They ate noodle soup after three cups. The layout was roughly planned, and they left the compound in the rain.

Cao Zhongquan and others were preparing to make a big vote with practical actions, and many returning army officers were drunk, said a few strange words, and opened their hearts to play the piano.The righteousness of the nation is just a resounding slogan. In the end, it is still a personal interest when it comes down to reality. The "10 taels of silver" has attracted many people, but it is a pity that they have no blessings to enjoy it. [

War contains many unstable factors. To divide and disintegrate the fighting spirit of the enemy depends on intrigue and tricks, and it also depends on large sums of money to buy.The subtle changes on the battlefield all have the shadow of behind-the-scenes transactions. A letter from the Qing army persuading the surrender lowered the morale of the returning army, just like this heavy rain, which made people shed painful tears.The returning army officers who were walking in the rain couldn't even muster up the strength to run, and staggered towards their respective camps.

Some officers seemed to hear the woman crying, and immediately changed their course to comfort the new widow.

/>

Before the sobbing widow wiped away the tears on her face, a man kicked open the door to assure the widow that a man capable of protecting women is coming!

Women are struggling, fleeing, crying, screaming, but this is a time of war, the unspoken rules of war include these things, women are the products of dedicating their lives for warriors, this kind of thing will always happen, struggling women, being crushed by men Down.To kill the enemy and protect the woman he loves, the warrior charged desperately on the bed!

The scandals that happened during the war, like this heavy rain, will be wiped away by the earth without leaving a trace.Good and evil can no longer be described, because war changes all rules, and the law cannot judge.As for the harsh military law, it changes with time, and there is a degree of relaxation.The army can commit no crime to a place, and it can also slaughter a city without leaving any chickens and dogs behind.Just like the coexistence of massacre and relief, there are sometimes contradictions, and the military laws implemented in each battle are different.

Brutal soldiers obey orders, and military orders turn soldiers into machines for executing military orders.The country and the nation have no practical significance to soldiers. They only listen to the words of their officers. A warlord can change the direction of an army. War allows each officer to make a choice.The imams, landlords, and filial sons in the Hui army are also standing in line, and they are all making painful choices.

The rainy weather made the busy figures of the Qing army disappear. Except for the military tents, there were no people walking around on the ground.Pengyuan Mountain is a treasure land that can be attacked and defended. Xu Zhanbiao has moved the Chinese army tent to the Dishui Cave on the top of the mountain.In the cleaned cave, the officers were playing chess. After the war, the sour counselor was studying Li Guolou's poem, "Qing Ping Le Dong Zhiyuan".

Guo Baochang lost a game of chess, glanced at him and said: "Old Gao, don't look at it, why praise Li Guolou? Literati like to cheat the most. He has already written poems, so it's not improvisation. Li Guolou is fake. A model of space."

Senior Counselor Gao stroked his beard and said: "Well, Guo Shoubei is the one who made it clear. I don't believe that people can compose a poem so quickly. Cao Zhi's seven-step poem is unprecedented. Li Guolou is too fake. I despise him. "

Xu Zhanbiao won a game of chess, he laughed and said, "Don't speak ill of Li Guolou behind his back, instead question him face to face, asking if he has cheated or not?"

Guo Baochang chuckled and said, "Deputy Marshal Xu, isn't he soft-spoken? When he sees Li Guolou cheating, he won't expose him, so let him be complacent."

Counselor Gao said with a smile: "Guo Shoubei, do you think Li Guolou's offer of [-] taels of silver is useful?"

"Bah! It's useless. It's not that Deputy Commander Xu's tactic of besieging three ques and one to kill the fighting spirit of the returning army. Which time it was not like this, Yongyang Fucheng, I will eat it." Guo Baochang wanted to regain the disadvantage, so he had another game chess.

But Xu Zhanbiao had already stood up, and his relaxed nerves tensed up again. The art of war is always changing, the soldiers are set, and the water is normal. You have to try the strategy to know whether it is effective?Anyway, he doesn't need to spend money, and I hope that Li Guolou's spending a lot of money can kill the will of the returning army to resist.
