Chapter 225 Luo Gang's Heartfelt Words

The intelligence personnel informed Li Hongzhang's troops in Tianjin, Chen Yucheng's Fourth Group Army in Datong, Li Xiucheng's First Group Army in Baoding, and Luo Outline's Second Group Army in Cangzhou. All the ministries responded in the same way and were all repairing at their stations.

One day, it seemed that they intended to let the main force of the Qing army escape.

Cangzhou City was like a powder keg at this time. Many generals of the Han army did not understand Luo Outline's decision. At this time, the Second Army, the Tenth Army, the Cavalry Army and other major generals gathered together and surrounded Luo Outline. Li Desheng

.

Liu Cai, commander of the Tenth Army, had a bad temper. He first complained to Luo Gang: "Commander! We fought all the way from Xuzhou to Cangzhou, and how many brothers died because of this! Now we are watching Xianfeng's child escape! Capturing Xianfeng alive is unprecedented.

It’s an amazing feat, even if you were granted the title of king, it wouldn’t be surprising, so why is the commander like this!”

The generals below nodded repeatedly and captured Xianfeng's son alive. Of course you, Luo Gang, can be granted the title of king and duke, we young generals can also get some oil and water. When the emperor is in a good mood, it is not a problem to be granted the title of marquis. If there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, we can capture Xianfeng in person.

, not only can you get a title, but it is also a good thing that will go down in history.

Ye Lian gasped and stared at Luo Gangzhong angrily. She thought that Luo Gangzhong was deliberately targeting her. The cavalry already had the upper hand in chasing the enemy. Now Luo Gangzhong ordered not to attack. It was obviously to guard against her. On the one hand,

While complaining about Luo Youyang, on the one hand, he secretly regretted that he should not have often slandered Tiandi Hui, causing Luo Youyun to avenge his private revenge.

There were also many division-level generals cursing and criticizing Huai. Even the members of the Tiandihui did not understand Luo Outline's decision. If someone had scolded Luo Outline like this in the past, they would have opposed it a long time ago, but now they just remain sullen and silent.

Li Desheng sighed secretly. Among the Han armies, the Second Army was the most complicated.

Luo Gang was born in the Tiandi Hui, so he looked at the members of the Hui Party in a different light. All the leaders, big and small, who defected to him were entrusted with important tasks, which greatly angered the old soldiers in Guangxi.

The old soldiers in Guangxi huddled together under the leadership of Li Desheng and secretly excluded the generals who came from the party.

Li Desheng and Luo Gang had no intention of fighting, but the people below were fighting passionately and could not be persuaded.

Also, Ye Lian's cavalry army was of its own kind. The soldiers who came from the Tiandi Hui had bad military discipline. Ye Lian often went to Luo Gang to complain. Later, when he heard that Luo Gang was their senior, he even slandered the Tian and Di Hui. Such behavior

, of course they will be suppressed by the Heaven and Earth Society.

Luo Gangyou had a gloomy face. He thought to himself: Why are there no disputes among other armies, but the Second Army is so troublesome? It was fine during the war. Everyone was looking forward to winning the war, so if they had the strength to work together, they would fight over the spoils.

It was a life-and-death struggle, but now things are better. There is no war, and everyone is fighting among themselves. It seems that we have to find a way. After conquering Yanjing, it is best to resign.

Seeing Luo Gangzhong and Li Desheng, the two officers were silent. The quarrel in the room slowly subsided. After a while, everyone looked at Luo Gangzhong and Li Desheng quietly. This was their experience. If the quarrel continues,

.The two of them are bound to get mad, and they will be punished one by one.

Luo Gangyang waved his hand and said: "You all go down. I have something to discuss with Mr. Li."

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you. They all stood up and said, "I will retire at the end of the day!"

"Hey! What does this staff mean? You want to let Xianfeng go, and you want to hide it from the soldiers. This is the first time I have received such a weird order!" After a pause, Li Desheng said again: "Commander! The Han army is

There are all factions, but the factional disputes in the Second Army are the most intense. Many generals are blatantly hostile to each other. This is something I have never seen before. If we are not punished severely, sooner or later it will lead to a catastrophe."

Luo Gangyou blamed himself: "I was too soft-hearted. Now I think about it and I really regret it. When we attacked Xuzhou, some brothers from the Tiandihui risked their lives to join us. I entrusted them with important positions, but I didn't expect that they would become the leader. Now they

I have not made any mistakes, and rushing to punish them will only make the three armies more dissatisfied, and it is also disrespectful. How can I face all the brothers?"

Li Desheng thought to himself: Luo Dagang is a good fighter, how can he still think that he is the leader of the party? Loyalty and military discipline are confused. No wonder his promotion is slow.

Luo DaGou asked: "What can Brother Li do? Do we have to divide our forces?"

Li Desheng waved his hands and said: "It's no longer possible. Yanjing is about to be captured. How can we divide our troops without orders? We can't act rashly. By the way, have you heard that the emperor plans to reorganize the army and ordered the staff to try it out!"

Luo Dingyao glanced at Li Desheng with envy. There was someone in the court who wanted to be an official. He, Luo Dingyang, was a loner. The Guangxi generals rejected him, and the Hunan clique looked down upon him as a bandit leader. This was why he promoted party members.

.

Li Desheng whispered: "To be honest with Brother Luo, this time the emperor will promote military academy cadets to serve as grassroots officers. All battalion-level officers will be transferred to reserve service or become militia leaders. Don't be confused when the time comes.

Already."

Luo Gangyou was startled and asked: "Brother Li, what do you mean by this? Do you suspect that someone in the army is rebelling?"

Li Desheng's face was solemn, and he complained that Luo Gang would only promote some people with low moral character. He said: "The generals in the army are unwilling to give up their military power. What will they do? Especially the soldiers who have a rough background and are unwilling to do so."

If we are restrained, I am afraid that many people will take desperate risks and regret it later. It is not too late to suppress them now."

Luo Gang understood what Li Desheng meant, and was also dissatisfied with Li Desheng. He said: "Our brothers who come out to work are all loyal. There are no duplicitous people. But the staff turned them into militia. This is really inappropriate."

, it was spread that we should deal with heroes, and this is the way to go: when the birds are gone, the good bows are hidden, when the cunning rabbits die, when the lackeys are cooked, I, Luo Gang, will be the first to refuse."

Li Desheng suppressed his anger. He and Luo Gangwei were both strong-willed people. If they continued to talk like this, they would only become enemies. He decided to endure it for a while and then slowly persuade each other.

Luo Gangdao said: "The emperor can do anything to me, but if my brothers defect to me, I have to think about them. Before the world is unified, the emperor will follow Zhao Kuangyin's ice wine to release military power. Isn't this too much!"

When Li Desheng heard him insulting the emperor, he felt angry and worried at the same time. This Luo Gang would not have any objections! I had to test him carefully to prevent him from going astray.

"Brother Luo, you are the one I admire the most, Li Desheng. Back then, we were the emperor's left and right arms, pioneers, and we could talk about anything at that time. The emperor treated me like a brother, and he would not blame me. But now the emperor is 95

The most important thing is to maintain prestige. We can no longer be as careless as before. These words were all told by Master Meng, and I think they are correct."

Luo Gangyou secretly thought: With Zhang Suimou and others protecting you, it doesn't matter even if you make a mistake.

Li Desheng stared at Luo Outline closely and said: "In recent years, the emperor has promoted a group of confidants and placed them in high positions, but he has not neglected the Luo brothers. Apart from the six Shouyi brothers, the Luo brothers are the only generals who have been granted the title of marquis.

Is there anything else that Brother Luo is hiding?"

"Pa!" Luo Gangyang was shocked and angry, and shouted loudly: "What do you mean? When I surrendered to the emperor, I swore never to betray him for the rest of my life. Could it be that I, Luo Gangyang, am that kind of capricious villain? I

The reason why I pity the brothers of Tiandihui is... Humph! It’s okay not to say it!”

Li Desheng was scolded by Luo Gangyou. Seeing the righteous and awe-inspiring look on his face, he felt ashamed and asked hurriedly: "Why? Brother Luo, even if he says, as long as he can do it, he will never refuse!"

Luo Gangyou thought to himself: If he doesn't say it now, it will only make them more suspicious, which will be bad later.

"Hey!" Luo Gangtang sighed and said solemnly: "The emperor has unified the world, and it is the time to attract talents. However, there are factions in the court, both military generals and civil servants, especially you Guangxi and Hunan people, who fight with each other.

, exclude dissidents, there are millions of brothers in the Tiandihui, and the reason for joining the King of Han is to make a wife, a son, a prince, and a prime minister. It is just to drive out the Tatars.

It's just a slogan, but you are taking every possible precaution in front of you. How can you not be discouraged? When they see that I am a senior, they come to seek refuge with me. If I don't treat them favorably, they will seek refuge with the Qing government to fight against us. It's ridiculous that Zhang Suimou and others only

You think that I have evil intentions, wantonly planting cronies in our army, and causing conflicts. If you were me, what would you do?"

Li Desheng immediately fell to his knees and said with shame: "Brother Luo, it turns out that you have good intentions, but I misunderstood you. I want you to admit your mistake, but what I just said was from the bottom of my heart. Please think twice before you act."
