Chapter 48: The Changing Times and the Dream of Yangzhou Part 6: Vice-Capital of Jiangning
Shulin smiled and nodded, and continued, "What should we do now?"
Perhaps she was moved by Shulin's actions just now, Lan Yuanmei stood up with a cough.
"Master General, since the spy reported that there was only one barbarian thief who entered the Yangtze River this time, and was stationed in Chongming Island, Yangzhou and Zhenjiang, this is a good opportunity for me to wait. The official suggested that I collect Anhui immediately.
The people from Jiangxi will gather in Jiangning”
"At the same time, the green camp soldiers north of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu gathered under the command of the Huai'an Prefecture's Governor of the Grain Transportation Bureau. The troops from Anhui Province advanced towards Yangzhou after a small station near Jiangning, while the troops from Jiangnan and Jiangxi Province advanced towards Zhenjiang Prefecture"
"The people in Jiangning Prefecture should be calm and calm. If the bandits on Chongming Island take action, they should dispatch their people"
"At the same time, I wrote a letter to let the people from Zhejiang Province approach Chongming Island and restrain this people"
It is obviously not what Shulin wants to see when he is in office. His term is approaching. He would rather rob the barbarian thieves in Yangzhou and evacuate quickly after robbing Zhenjiang. However, if such a big thing happens, he will be unable to say that he has no action.
Then he said: "Agree, but Anhui and Jiangxi's troops drove to Jiangning City before making plans. As for Zhejiang's troops, this supervisor will submit a letter to him."
Obviously, the horrific feat of the barbarian thieves in Guangzhou, Tianjin, Shengjing defeating the Eight Banners soldiers made him hesitate.
Jiangsu Governor Min Eyuan said: "Master General, do we need to judge whether the barbarian thieves only occupy Chongming Island, Yangzhou City, and Zhenjiang City. Only by knowing their intentions can we plan the next step.
Action”
This is what Shulin wants to hear. The message that the main force of the barbarian thief has been stationed outside Tianjin has reached him. He believes that the barbarian thief is obviously heading for Beijing, and there are more than 100,000 elite troops there, and there are even more.
Mongolian tribes can rely on them, and it will definitely be no problem to work for a year or two.
As for this place, a mere side master wants to take over the land of Jiangnan, just dream.
Therefore, he kept calling in his heart, "Hurry up and kidnap the property of Yangzhou City, Dingkou"
Then he said: "What does Lord Min mean?"
Min Eyuan said: "The judge of the officials was that they were in order to restrain the troops on the Yangtze River in the Qing Dynasty and prevent them from moving to the capital. The reason they did this was that they naturally believed that they could walk on the water like flying steamboats.
,The officials also judged that they would drive into the depths of the Yangtze River next, destroying our ports and ships”
"The official advises that the big ships we have worked hard to supervise can gather and lurk not far from the Yangtze River. This fleet was built to guard against them, and it is really unreasonable to hide them completely"
Shulin's eyes lit up, "Mr. Min means that instead of entangling on land, it is better to fight with him on the water?"
It turned out that the Qing court spent a huge amount of money and the sail warship built in five years was built on each ship with British people, sailing, steering, winding, cannoning, and observations. If a water battle starts,
You can get involved in the British.
It is said that the British also own a fleet and a large army on the island of Borneo in Nanyang.
However, he did not immediately express his opinion, but looked at others.
The first thing to be affected is naturally Jiangning Weaving. He is also a royal relative. Jiangning Weaving Weaving's real status is actually second only to the Governor of Liangjiang and General Jiangning in Jiangnan. In many cases, the Governor of Liangjiang served as the Governor of Liangjiang.
Cheng Shan smiled awkwardly, "Mr. General Secretary, I am not good at military affairs, and I am willing to obey all the orders of my elders"
Jiangning Prefect Li Yaodong stood up and said, "For the sake of the present, just in case, we must collect the young and strong people in the city, and we may not be sure when they will come."
Shulin thought for a while, "Well, this matter is really critical, so you can do it with all your power"
Li Yaodong asked: "Master General, that money and food..."
Shulin looked at the Lianghuai Salt Transport Shi Shuai Ring, who was sitting on the side with his head hanging down, and said, "Mr. Chai?"
Swai Ring knew what he meant, and the salt merchants in Jiangning City were also under his jurisdiction, but the salt merchants here were far less valuable than Yangzhou, so he said: "The general manager has an order, so the subordinates will naturally obey. After the meeting, the subordinates will go there in person.
Lobbying, you will always pay some silver, but the food is "
Li Yaodong said: "Sir, the autumn grain has just been put into the warehouse and has not yet been discharged to the capital. Look..."
Shulin was so angry that as the governor of Liangjiang, he was the top priority for him to transfer the money and grain from the important places of the imperial court to the capital. If the autumn grain was used in advance and the bandits were torn for a while, they would withdraw again.
How to explain to the court?
He said intimately: "The three salts in Yangzhou Prefecture are all worth a huge sum of ten thousand yuan, and they are all cunning rabbits. They have mansions in Yangzhou, Suzhou and Jiangning. Even if the money in Yangzhou has been moved by the bandits, there should be other places, and they may not be left behind again.
Swift Rim is on her body”
Then he looked at Swift Rider again, and Swift had to bite the bullet and said, "If you defeat the thief army, the subordinates will naturally find a way"
Shulin was overjoyed. Although he was extremely disgusted with him, in order to alleviate the current situation, he had to stabilize him for the time being.
"Mr. Chai is a civil servant and likes to recite poems and write counterfeits. This is normal in the Jiangnan officialdom. It is also possible to not observe it for a while. I will tell you something afterwards."
Then look at the deputy general Luo Tianchou, who is second only to Lan Yuanmei in the Green Camp in Jiangning City.
Luo Tianchou is a short and concise man, but in fact he was a famous general when he followed the Qing army to encircle the chieftains and the White Lotus Sect uprising, perhaps second only to Yang Yuchun.
When he was taking the martial arts exam, he was one of the few who could dance a 120-pound heavy sword. He could also pull a five-stone large bow in infantry and cavalry battles, and he could also win every shot.
He actually surpassed Yang Yuchun in a single round of martial arts and strength. It was nothing more than that Yang Yuchun followed the Eight Banners of Manchuria directly, and he just followed the local governor and became less famous.
Since Yang Yuchun surrendered to Truqin's army, he immediately became prominent. Although he had just turned thirty, he was already the second-ranked figure of the Green Camp Soldier in Jiangning City.

The surname Lan and Luo were mostly natives at this time. After using the Soren soldiers, the Qing court turned their attention to the vast army in the country. Luo Tianchou was one of them.
.
"Mr. General Secretary, I will only follow your leader!"
Although he was thin, his voice was extremely loud. Most of his two thousand green camp soldiers came from Guangxi and Guizhou, and his combat power was quite strong. In fact, he was still above Lan Yuanmei's admiral camp. Although Lan
Most of Yuanmei’s admiral camps also come from mountain people in the mountains of Jiangnan.
Shulin nodded slightly, and finally looked at the second-ranked figure of the Jiangning General's Mansion, Deputy Chief Cebak.
Cebak is a general of the Mongolian Zhenghuang Banner who has been in the mainland for a long time. On him, the halos of the saints, Batulu, and the former emperor's imperial guards were intertwined. Although he had never served as General Jiangning, everyone present knew that
If nothing unexpected happens, this person will be the next Jiangning general.
At the same time, there is a legend in Jiangnan.
"Zebak is the highest person in charge of the stick position set up by the emperor in Jiangnan"
Originally, the deputy governor of Jiangning was stationed in Zhenjiang. After General Jiangning suddenly passed away, he brought the Eight Banners soldiers into Jiangning City. Of course, this was also instructed by Shulin.
He, the deputy governor, originally had only 300 vests in Zhenjiang, and even if he was still in Zhenjiang, it would probably not be a problem.
"Absurd!"
Cebak suddenly slapped the short side and stood up. Compared with Luo Tianchou, he was tall and strong at the age of 40, with a beard on his face and fierce lights flashing in his small triangular eyes from time to time, which made people shudder.
Generally speaking, to this day, no local officials, regardless of civil and military positions, do not take it as their responsibility to make money. However, Cebak, who was born in the Mongolians, is a rare honest person among them, and he never participates.
These things that seem "filthy and dirty" to him are just a matter of trying to lead the army.
If a Han man was so honest, the imperial court would have doubts, but the deputy governor of the Eight Banners of Mongolia was very relieved, not to mention that he was a child of the Korqin royal family who had been married to the royal family for a long time.
Although Shulin was a little dissatisfied with this, he still acquiesced.
Cebak said loudly: "The thief of Truqin bullies me, no one, and one day went to Yangzhou and Zhenjiang two big cities, but you are still talking here. Can you just talk to the thieves with a clear talk? "<
/p>
As I said just now, it is naturally not considered a pure talk, but in Zebak's opinion, it is almost the same as a pure talk.
All of you here are silent about this candidate for General Jiangning who may be on par with the Governor of Liangjiang in the future.
Shulin had to come forward by himself, "Then let me see, how should I do it?"
"Then it goes without saying that the army will naturally be launched to Yangzhou, Zhenjiang and Yangzhou. Not to mention Yangzhou, we will be stationed in Zhenjiang for five years, knowing every grass and tree there, and being willing to lead all the Eight Banners soldiers and local green camp soldiers to take the lead
Go!"
Shulin's face darkened, "If all the Eight Banners soldiers were broken in Zhenjiang, then Jiangning City would be empty!"
However, Cebak said something next, which made Shulin and others unable to argue.
