Although Deng Fei wanted to take the map off the screen right away, he had to find professionals to do it. In addition, the headquarters was packing up things to move, so he had to wait until he was done.
As the war progressed, the location of the Eastern Front Headquarters was also constantly changing. It was previously located at Laobian Station, sixty miles west of Shengjing. Now the new location was chosen at Falun Temple outside the small north gate of Shengjing City.
, less than six miles away from the city gate, it will be convenient to move into the city in the future.
If you look down at Shengjing City from the air, the entire city is like a mandala with multiple structures surrounded by squares and circles. This kind of urban structure is unique among ancient Chinese cities.
The center of the entire city is the Shengjing Palace. The courtyard where the Phoenix Tower and the Harem are located is at the highest point and is the first floor inside the mandala. The approximately square city wall wraps the inner city, including the General Office, Wubu Office, and Fengtian.
The second circle is composed of the Mansion, Chengde County Government and numerous royal palaces; outside it is the approximately circular outer city wall and a large number of residences, which is equivalent to the outer courtyard of the mandala. The eight roads connecting the inner and outer cities form a huge "well"
"" glyph; outside the outer outline are four pagodas and four lamaseries, of which the north pagoda, Falun Temple, is the largest.
When Huang Taiji built four pagodas and four temples, he hoped to use the power of religion to strengthen the Manchus' "destined destiny" and prolong his life. As a result, he died before the construction was completed.
Choosing Falun Temple was intentional by Zhao Xin. Through this move, he wanted to tell his subordinates and the people of Shengjing that the rise and fall of a dynasty has never had anything to do with religion. In the battle between flesh and steel, even if the sky is surrounded by gods and Buddhas, the
If you can't hold it, you still can't hold it.
The headquarters was set up in the front yard where the Heavenly King's Hall is located. There were three rooms in the east and west, all of which were requisitioned. Two tents were also set up in the yard. The front and back doors of the Heavenly King's Hall were locked, leaving only one leading to the second courtyard.
The side door of the city is still open. The lamas are staying in the dormitories in the backyard. When they have to do their homework, they can go out through the back door. Now that the war in the city has just subsided, the people are staying behind closed doors, and no one comes to offer incense and worship Buddha.
Two days later, as the troops repeatedly played the "Code for Entering the City" through loudspeakers, the order in the city gradually calmed down. Although there were few pedestrians on the streets, people still had to buy food and vegetables, and various shops were opened one after another.
The security company hired a calligraphy and painting shop owner from the city who was proficient in framing. The man worked cautiously for more than two hours, and finally took off the map on the screen, and the official documents of the Ming Dynasty that were used as the substrate were also restored.
Present world.
Deng Fei lay on the desk and looked carefully at the handwriting of Qi Jiguang that had just been framed. It was a piece of official paper 77 centimeters long and 62 centimeters wide. On the right was an application written in small regular script, and on the left was Qi Jiguang's comments.
, a total of sixty-two characters. Above the comment, there is also a large black seal "Bei Japanese Capital Command Qi Pi".
Deng Fei once asked Zhao Xin before, why did the official documents from the Jiajing era end up in Liaodong?
Zhao Xin's explanation for this is that Kong Youde was afraid that Jin would not have enough bargaining chips after surrendering, so in addition to the artillery trained by the Spanish, he also took away a large number of official documents and files from Dengzhou. He thought these were good things, but who knew
Later Jin had no interest in these old official documents. Instead, because of the lack of paper, they used them as the backing of the screen. More official documents were cut with scissors and used as pads between the layers of letter bag fabrics.
Paper; it was the large number of things similar to cigarette purses that Zhao Xin asked Chai Rugui to take away with him before.
Deng Fei admired it for a long time, then checked other official documents, and finally carefully rolled up the framed original and put it into a leather file tube. He decided to put a glass frame on it when he got back and hang it in his study.
.
Zhao Xin has promised to give him the original work of Qi Jiguang. You can't take this thing back with you. There is an exact same one in another time and space, and it is in the museum.
If it were a piece of porcelain and jade, Zhao Xin could fool people into saying that it was originally a pair when selling it. But things like celebrity handwritings are always unique. Once two identical ones appear, bigger troubles will follow.
Come on. For example, in Sanxitang's "Bo Yuan Tie", it cannot be said that Wang Xun had the same mood and wrote two identical letters. Dong Qichang and Qianlong even stamped the two original letters exactly the same.
Chapter? This is ridiculous!
Deng Fei returned to the war room with satisfaction. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhao Xin sitting at the table, holding two telegrams and flipping through them. He was in a good mood now, and asked casually with a smile: "Whose telegram is from?"
"He Xiwen."
"How's the progress on his end?"
Zhao Xin handed over the telegram and said: "We have just captured Yulin, and we have to build ships after we capture Beiliu. The land transportation in Guangxi is really a headache. There are thousands of miles of waterways, and if one point in the middle is unstable, the supply line will be cut off.
Too much trouble!"
Guangxi is mountainous, and the roads are narrow and rugged. The Ming and Qing Dynasty's post station system in Guangxi didn't even have horses, and it was useless if they did. They relied on human feet to deliver official documents, commonly known as "thousand-mile horses." So He Xiwen and others
It was impossible to enter Nanning via the post road, so we could only take the long way around and take the water route.
In the battle plan he reported to the Northern Navy Staff Headquarters, after landing, the troops would first take the Lianjiang and Liujiang rivers, then enter the Xunjiang River from Tengxian County in Wuzhou Prefecture, then transfer to Yujiang River from Guiping in Xunzhou Prefecture, and go directly to Nanning Prefecture.
Although the waterway of a thousand miles is a bit winding, it is much better than drilling through a mountain of 100,000 miles.
"Listening to your tone, you want to be the logistics captain again?"
"Let's talk after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he is not that fast." Zhao Xin asked the staff to get an enlarged map of Guangdong and Guangxi, draw circles on several locations with a red pencil, and explained: "Beiliu, Rongxian, Tengxian
, Guiping, Guixian, Hengzhou, Yongchun, and all the way to Nanning, there are more than 2,000 miles of waterways, and the army cannot reach it by land. He Xiwen has 6,000 soldiers, and if he can reach the outskirts of Nanning Prefecture in September, God will bless him."
"To prevent the Qing army from taking the retreat in Guangdong, it is best to capture Wuzhou." Deng Fei looked at the map for a long time and said in a deep voice: "It is too hasty to attack Guangxi. Neither the transportation nor the people are familiar with the waterway.
We are even less familiar."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Wuzhou is too close to Zhaoqing, and the Qing army and regiment training troops in eastern Guangdong may have to rush over. Just occupy Teng County." Zhao Xin said.
Wan shrugged and said: "Who let He Shen do that? We are not old Americans, we have to be trustworthy in doing things. Fifty million, how many things can be solved! Otherwise, I wouldn't even dare to build the reservoir."
Deng Fei smiled when he heard this and said, "By the way, is He Zhongtang still hiding in Anping Port?"
"No." Zhao Xin lit up a cigarette, took two leisurely puffs, and said, "Didn't he send Ma Ba San to notify He Lin? Now the Manchu Qing has controlled all the post and water channels leading from Yunnan to Guizhou.
, even if there is news, it won't come out for a while. So he went to find Xu Dayong in the first few days. If he had to go to Guangxi, I asked the Thor to take him south. Counting the days, he will arrive in two days.
It’s Lianzhou.”
"There won't be any trouble, right?"
"Don't worry, Xu Dayong is watching over him."
On September 7, 1794, the blue and white Thor cut through the waves and arrived at Bailong Port in the south of Lianzhou Fucheng. This time the Thor was here to deliver military supplies, although He Xiwen's unit was involved in several battles.
The central capital was overwhelming, but the inventory of artillery shells was falling loudly.
No way, the 75mm cannon of the Beihai Navy fires too fast, one shot in a few seconds. In the previous landing battle against Lianzhou, Zheng Wenxian's fleet used hundreds of naval guns to attack the Qing army at Daguan Port and Guantouling.
A saturation bombardment was carried out with the forts in Bazishan, razing all three forts to the ground. The bombardment at that time was so powerful that it was like destroying the world and destroying the earth, which directly destroyed the resistance of Lianzhou City.
Xu Dayong came out of his cabin, came to the door of the cabin where He Shen was, and knocked on the door. After a moment, the door opened, revealing Liu Quan's old face.
"Mr. Xu is here? My master is waiting for you."
Because he had little education, Xu Dayong liked Liu Quan to call him "Sir", which sounded much more pleasant to his ears than "Director".
Walking into the house, He Shen, who was wearing a moon-white cloth robe, was sitting at the table making tea. The tea was fine Wuyi rock tea, and the tea set was a simple-looking purple clay pot. He Shen smiled and greeted him to sit down.
Next, he asked Liu Quan to pour him another cup. After Xu Dayong drank the faintly fragrant tea in one gulp and praised it, he asked: "Brother Xu, when will we get off the boat?"
"Another half hour."
"In that case, let's have another cup of tea." Although He Shen was smiling and looking happy, his cheeks were obviously much thinner than before, and there were a lot of white hairs on his originally dark and shiny braids.
In early August, the Heshen family who were having dinner learned about Qianlong's death and Jiaqing's succession from the midday radio. Not to mention that Hexiao, Fengshen Yinde's wife, fainted on the spot, and Heshen also burst into tears.
, like mourning a concubine, not thinking about food or food for several days. Although he was the direct murderer of Qianlong's death, the friendship between the two of them for nearly twenty years was more than just using and being used.
As the ruler of a huge country, politically Qianlong needed a capable helper after Liu Tongxun and Fu Heng. In the spiritual world, he also needed a confidant who could harmonize with him.
For Heshen, without Qianlong's appreciation and promotion, he would not have been able to reach the position of the first person under the emperor. Qianlong's favor for him was rare in ancient times and modern times. He also hoped to dedicate himself to becoming a famous minister like Liu Tongxun. Question
It's because the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty was too bad, and it was not easy to be an upright official. Heshen slipped deeper and deeper into the abyss of desire, from simply doing something good to feed his family and wearing good clothes, to finally having unsatisfied desires.
In addition to being sad, He Shen set up an incense burner in his residence to prostrate himself, wrote a memorial in person, and burned it. Perhaps only in this way could he make up for the guilt he felt towards Qianlong. Man, he is so hypocritical!
Since that day, Qianlong's daughter He Shen, Princess Xiao, never said a word to her father-in-law except for the routine greetings every morning. He Shen knew that he could not stand up to his daughter-in-law, so he let her go.
Since the temporary dock set up by the Northern Navy at Bailong Port could not dock a large ship like the Thor, He Shen followed Xu Dayong and had no choice but to take a cargo ferry ashore. After landing, He Shen and several of his subordinates saw several
Standing near the ruins of Bailong City Walled City, I was secretly shocked by the fierce artillery fire of the Northern Navy at that time.
After that, the group switched to a cargo boat and entered the inland river from the Lianjiang estuary along the coast. It was already dusk when they arrived at Ximenjiang Pier. Before the boat docked, He Shen saw the bustling scene of people on the river bank.
, I can’t help but be surprised at how prosperous it is.
What he didn't know was that although the Manchu and Qing Dynasties implemented a sea ban on trade, because Lianzhou and Qinzhou were too close to Annan, it was difficult to ban private exchanges and trade, and smuggling transactions had always been carried out under the eyes of the government. Sea trade
The development of the country also promoted local commerce, and the goods from Annan also entered the inland areas of Guangdong and Guangxi along the Nanliu River.
Lianzhou Prefecture is located on the coast, and has heard all kinds of news about Beihai Town for a long time. When the Beihai Navy took down Mo Guanfu and Chen Tianbao, and then attacked the Xishan Dynasty, it had long been spread by word of mouth from businessmen. After experiencing the first few
After the weather became desolate, the prosperity of the past was quickly restored as people's peace notices were issued everywhere.
The people sent by He Xiwen to greet him had hired several silk and bamboo sedans in advance, and then took He Shen and his men to the Yin Hotel in the east of the city to settle down, while Xu Dayong came alone to the General Military Office in the west of the city.
. Unlike Zhao Xin and others who were unwilling to live in the city, He Xiwen set up his headquarters in the General Military Mansion south of Fuya after taking Lianzhou.
"Brother Xu, I have long admired your great name!"
"Commander He, brother, I have often heard of your name in Beihai Town. I admire you so much. I never thought that I would be lucky enough to meet you today!"
Xu Dayong's identity in the intelligence bureau is a secret even in Beihai Town. Apart from the 29-person committee, not many people know about it. His public identity over the years has been the deputy director of the Ministry of Trade, under the direct leadership of Shen Jingdan. This time he accompanied
When Shen went south, his main task was to wait to receive the copper mines in Dongchuan and to inspect the products in Guangxi.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Come on, let me introduce you to Brother Xu first. This is my chief of staff Huang Zhongtong, this is Liang Wenying who is in charge of the servant army, and this is
Wei Chao, the leader of Hui'an Camp..."
It is said that the so-called "Hoi An Camp" was only an early establishment. Now it has developed into a regiment, but everyone is used to it and has not changed. Nearly 40% of the soldiers of this regiment are from the Minh Huong people group in Hoi An, and the other 60%
Wei Chao, the leader of the security team from Bacheng, is less than 30 years old this year. He studied for several years as a child and then practiced martial arts. After joining the North Korean Navy, he trained very hard and was very brave in all battles. He soon became a member of the security team.
He stood out among all the Mingxiang people. After participating in several officer training courses hosted by Zhao Xin in Bacheng, he was promoted to regiment leader.
Today's Northern Navy is divided into two factions, the North and the South. The northern faction is currently the most powerful. It's not that Zhao Xin and others don't want to transfer northern officers to serve in the south, but it is really difficult for most northerners to adapt to the climate and water and soil of the south. Don't look at malaria.
Problem, but the huge difference in food makes many northerners shy away.
The only exception was those in the special operations camp. They were given a lot of targeted training by Wang Yuanfang, a later-generation Northeasterner, and they also had separate meals.
After some polite greetings, Xu Dayong followed He Xiwen to the backyard, where a sumptuous banquet had been set up to entertain him. The reason why He Xiwen wanted to entertain him personally was because he knew that the Ministry of Trade The person in charge, Shen Jingdan, is the father-in-law of King Zhao. If Xu Dayong can be the deputy of the future "father-in-law", he must be very capable. He has a bright future in Beihai Town, so he must have a good relationship.
The five people talked about their age and sat down to drink according to their seats. Everyone talked and laughed, and after several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere was very harmonious. Seeing that the heat was almost done, He Xiwen gave Huang Zhongtong a wink. The latter understood and took advantage of the situation. During the conversation, he suddenly slapped his hands twice.
At this time, someone in the next room seemed to knock on the sandalwood board, and then the quiet sound of the guzheng slowly sounded. Xu Dayong was not sure why, so he heard a clear and melodious female voice begin to sing: "Dream into the Yanshui Road in the south of the Yangtze River, and the journey will be over." In the south of the Yangtze River, I don't meet people who have left me. I sleep with nothing to talk about, and I feel melancholy and my soul disappears by mistake. I want to exhaust all these love letters. The wild goose sinks the fish, but there is no evidence in the end. But I rely on the slow string song to say goodbye. The heartbreak breaks the Qin Zheng pillar. "
After the song was sung, the lingering sound lingered. Huang Zhongtong smiled and said: "Miss Ping'er, come out and toast Mr. Xu."
As soon as she finished speaking, a person walked out from the next room, and everyone's eyes suddenly lit up. They saw that she had two slender willow eyebrows, lightly applied pink and white on her cheeks as white as jade, and had a jade hairpin on her head. , wearing two pearl earrings as big as mung beans; wearing a bright red embroidered satin tight-fitting jacket, paired with a green and floral crepe skirt, making her look dazzling.
The woman known as "Ping'er" walked over gracefully, made a blessing first, stood up, filled a glass of wine, brought it to Xu Dayong with a pair of jade hands, smiled at him, did not say anything, and just took the wine. Two eyes looked at him with sparkling water, seeming to contain a thousand kinds of tenderness and all kinds of honey.
Even though Xu Dayong had traveled all over the country over the years and had seen a lot, he was a little crazy for a while. He and his wife had been separated for a long time, and he had been watching Heshen in Anping Port. Although he occasionally went to the romantic place, but on Jeju Island, How could the official prostitutes of the Li Dynasty compare with the beauties from the south in front of them?
Under the light, Ping'er saw Xu Dayong taking the wine and not drinking it, but staring blankly at him. A blush appeared on his cheeks, and he turned his head slightly, showing a bit of shyness. Seeing this, Xu Dayong was even more embarrassed. I felt that this woman was like a delicately blooming peony, and her bones were all tender.
