Chapter 4: Tong Gege

Then Elimu and Li Wei started to punch and drink, while Li Ningyu stayed aside quietly, making various calculations in his heart. At the same time, in the Zhang Mansion in Dongsi Hutong in the capital, the Minister of War of the Ministry of War entered the house.

Zhou yawned and sat on the Taishi chair in the living room. Standing next to him was a middle-aged man, who seemed to be complaining, because the middle-aged man had a depressed look on his face.

"Brother, you have to make the decision for me. As soon as that man named E came, he took my job. From now on, we will have nothing to gain!" The middle-aged man pretended to be bitter.

said.

The Minister of the Ministry of War came to Zhouzhou and glared at his younger brother Zhang Youmin impatiently. To be honest, if he hadn't been unable to defeat his mother, he would have used all his strength to help his younger brother Zhang Youmin to the position of deputy director of Zhili Green Camp.

Yes, I originally thought it would give me an extra boost.

But who would have thought that this guy is just a piece of shit who can't hold up a wall. He is good at eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling and smoking. However, a green camp with an establishment of only more than 3,700 people actually has less than 800 people. He

I was stunned that I ate the free wages of three thousand people.

** Zhou, the Minister of War, thought: "Okay, you can eat as long as you want. After all, some of it will go into your own pocket, but you don't want to look too ugly. At least you must understand the principle of equal benefit."

Originally, the monthly rations for the Green Camp were issued from the Ministry of War and then given by the Ministry of Household Affairs, but Zhang Youmin ate it all by himself. He didn't know how to manage it on weekdays. Now he has the position of Deputy Chief of Staff.

, he still wanted it, and was eventually found to have embezzled military pay. No one stood up to speak for him.

"You know nothing! You only know how to eat, drink, whore, gamble, and smoke. The guy named E didn't just come out of nowhere. He also has his own backer. I heard that he is following the path of Prince He Shuogong! You can give me peace of mind during these days.

Point it out, don't get into trouble, I won't help you if something happens!" Seeing his younger brother Zhang Youmin complaining, **zhou, Minister of the Ministry of War, reprimanded loudly.

But Zhang Youmin seemed to be unwilling to ask: "Brother, then let's just let this matter go?".

"Then what else do you want? Do you want to use those guns to block people's houses?" At this time, **zhou was completely impatient, and he slapped the table and stood up and said loudly.

"Yes, yes, brother, I'll go back first! You have to worry about my affairs!" Zhang Youmin, who was frustrated, immediately ran away in despair after seeing ** Zhou waving his hands impatiently.

.

Then **zhou also changed into casual clothes, left the mansion in his own sedan, and drove towards the mansion of his patron Li Hongzao. At this time, Prince He Shuogong's side courtyard, Elimu and Li Wei

The two of them were already a little drunk.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Li Ningyu's brain was running at high speed, and various historical data began to emerge. Around 1882, the eighth year of Guangxu's reign, the Renwu Coup occurred in North Korea to the east of the Qing Dynasty. Although it was put down,

However, Wu Changqing's troops of the Qing army stayed in North Korea temporarily. In September, Wu Changqing sent Yuan Shikai, a fellow commander in the camp affairs office, to start training thousands of soldiers for North Korea.

Not long after, around November 1883, the ninth year of Guangxu, the southwest Qing army suffered consecutive defeats on the battlefield in Vietnam. After the French army suddenly captured Shanxi, Vietnam, they continued to attack the Qing army until February of the tenth year of Guangxu.

Mi Le personally led 12,000 troops from Hanoi and Haiyang in Vietnam, divided by land and water, and jointly attacked Beining Prefecture in Guangxi. Due to the command of the former enemy in Beining, Xu Yanxu, the governor of Guangxi, did not make serious preparations for war. On February 15th,

, the Qing army's 20,000-strong Green Battalion retreated without fighting, and Beining Prefecture in Guangxi fell.

Not long after, the French army pushed westward and captured Taiyuan. In March, Xinghua also fell. Then the French army completely occupied the Red River Delta, putting the Qing army in a very passive position. For this matter, the Empress Dowager Cixi also replaced You can imagine how angry the five military ministers were.

This also led to the fact that in 1884, the tenth year of Guangxu, one day in March, a minister in the morning impeached Li Hongzao for recommending him as an inhumane, and then charged Heshuo with "entrusting a snake to protect honor and failing to do things well". Prince Gong Yi Xin, University Scholar Bao Yun, Li Hongzao, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs who co-organized the University, Jing Lian, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Weng Tonghe, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, were all expelled from the Military Aircraft Department.

At the same time, five people including Prince Shiduo of Li, Shangshu of the Ministry of Hubu Erhebu, Yan Jingming, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment Zhang Zhiwan, and Minister of Industry Sun Yuwen were newly appointed as the new military aircraft ministers, and Prince Shiduo of Lili as the foreman minister to form a new military aircraft department. Then the Empress Dowager Cixi ordered the Military Aircraft Department to consult with Yixuan whenever there was an emergency. From then on, the power of the Military Aircraft Department was actually in the hands of Yixuan and his confidant Sun Yuwen.

Based on some of the historical information he recalled, Li Ningyu knew that about a year later, Prince Gong Yixin would leave the center of power again. This was the second time he left the center of power. In 1861, he launched a coup in Beijing because of his support for the Empress Dowager Cixi. , after success, he was entrusted with important tasks as a reward.

But what followed was the uneasiness and blow from the Empress Dowager Cixi. In the later period, he was ups and downs within the ruling group, depressed and accomplished nothing. Although Prince Gong Yixin still had many party members and disciples, this time he withdrew from history. The stage would not come back until 20 years later.

So Li Ningyu felt that he had to prepare to take action, because he was only 10 years old now, and all his affairs abroad were under the banner of Prince Gong. In addition, Prince Gong established diplomatic relations with various countries, Li Ningyu had to Try every means to resolve this crisis, even if Prince Gong still has to withdraw from the stage of power in the end, he will not completely collapse until he finds his next backer.

Thinking of this, Li Ningyu could no longer sit still. Looking at the two people in front of him, Li Ningyu excused himself to go to the hut and quietly retreated out of the door. After passing through two courtyards, he came to a familiar place, Prince Gong. The backyard, where the family members live, naturally has a guard, but fortunately everyone knows him and knows that Li Ningyu is the son of the housekeeper and is also Prince Gong's favorite playmate of the princess.

After walking around a few times, about 10 minutes later, Li Ningyu came to the door of a pink sandman's room. After sorting his clothes, he knocked on the door lightly and whispered in his mouth: " "叏彟!叏彟! It's me, open the door quickly!".

"Ah! You're here!" Then a girl's exclamation was heard in the room, and then Li Ningyu slipped into the room. At this time, there was another girl in front of him, about 8 or 9 years old. She At this time, he was wearing a white snow civet fur coat, with a slender waist that was not enough to hold a hand, his big glass eyes were shining like obsidian stones, his cherry mouth was small, his hair was lightly pulled up by a jade hosta, and his face was even more vague. The beautiful city looks like a fairy.
