Zhang Shize's face was filled with tears; he was already on the eve of a storm.
The Ministry of War can only be the Ministry of War.
The situation in the Beijing camp needs to be reported to the Ministry of War. If hiding and not reporting is suspected of rebellion, what do you want to do by secretly hoarding firearms?
Therefore, it must be reported truthfully. Although the Ministry of War cannot mobilize the Beijing camp, they still have the power to manage it. It's just that there is no transfer of authority and command authority.
Zhang Shize looked at Yang Fan and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Yang Fan said: "Now that you are the coach, you have to come up with the idea. My suggestion is, don't talk for now, wait until the army comes back, and then talk to them. After all, these military camps belong to the Beijing camp. Before, the Beijing camp They need military camps after they go on an expedition to suppress the rebellion. Since the Ministry of War has agreed, it will be loaned to them for temporary use. Now that the Beijing camp division has returned, it will naturally be returned to us. "
Zhang Shize thought for a moment and realized what Yang Fan said made sense. When the army arrives, there are 40,000 people. You can't sleep in a tent. Your Majesty will have to show some attitude when the time comes. It's better than trying to find it yourself now.
"What about the supplies?" Zhang Shize asked.
"This can only be done by Your Majesty. He paid for it in the first place. Now that the Beijing army is back, without these supplies, what will the Beijing camp eat? He can't let the soldiers' hearts fall. I guess, Xuanwu has been The food and materials that the army has eaten, used, and sold will not come back. There is still some left in the warehouse, so we must come back." Yang Fan said helplessly.
Zhang Shize also knew that these things were in their hands. With the behavior of these poor devils, even if you kill them, they won’t spit it out.
It would be nice if we could get some of the rest out. It is estimated that tough measures will have to be taken, and the two armies may even end up fighting.
Zhang Shize was not afraid of Dong Jishu, nor was he afraid of the cabinet. What a joke, the top nobles of the Ming Dynasty are afraid of you.
He dared to cause trouble, but Dong Jishu and the others ignored him.
Now the commanders of regiments and camps in the Beijing camp are all sons of nobles. Yang Fan withdrew all his servants.
They are not easy to talk to, and they still make a fuss despite being ignored. Now these border soldiers have settled down, and they are being bullied. It’s weird if you can bear it.
However, the supplies that they harmed are definitely gone.
They are as poor as ghosts and have no money to compensate them. Even if they have the rest, they will try their best to keep it because they have been hungry for too long. I got so much supplies all at once that my eyes were red.
Zhang Shize also knew that Yang Fan was very embarrassed now.
He has also been tested since he was a child, so he naturally knows that all of this is for Yang Fan. Yang Fan couldn't come forward, otherwise he would be playing into someone else's hands.
Besides, Yang Fan has handed over his duties and no longer has a prominent position.
Now Yang Fan is the rear commander of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion and the commander-in-chief of Suiyuan Province. It has nothing to do with Jingying anymore. In what capacity does he stand out?
People are just waiting to join him in seizing the military power with ulterior motives.
Zhang Shize sighed. He had been very unhappy since the eunuch Tuan'er was naturalized.
In the past few months, the emperor and the court had made him very unhappy.
He sneered in his heart, now he had secured his throne and began to dominate.
No, it's time for the three of them, father and son, to ask the British government to support them in taking power.
"Then where should we live? In such a big Nanyuan, except for the Jingying Military Camp near Dahongmen, the rest of the place is in ruins, and there are not many good houses." Zhang Shize was worried for a while.
The area within the Nanyuan wall is as large as the six northern and southern cities of Beijing combined. The military camp of Beijing Camp is only a small area in the north next to Dahongmen.
"Go to the dock. I remember there are some houses there for temporary living." Yang Fan said.
The wharf is at the far west, where the Yongding River transports materials. Huang Hao's transportation office has some simple houses there.
A few people have not left with more than a thousand people. I saw a group of cavalry coming over.
"But Uncle Dingyuan and Admiral Zhang, our family has His Majesty's decree. Please stay." A eunuch with a male duck voice shouted loudly.
Yang Fan and Zhang Shize hurriedly accepted the order. This time, the person who came to deliver the order was an unfamiliar little eunuch. Judging from his clothing, he was only a seventh-grade eunuch.
After reading out the decree, he didn't even ask for the red envelope and left in panic. It seemed that he was afraid that Uncle Dingyuan would get angry.
Yang Fan said to Zhang Shize: "Normally, at this time, I should help you deal with these messy things. Unexpectedly, His Majesty asked me not to stay in the capital for a day. Alas, you should handle it carefully." Yang Fan patted his Said the back.
Zhang Shize puffed out his nose angrily and said, "We just achieved some victory, and they are like this. It's too much."
Yang Fan smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty is too embarrassed to see me. I learned about Qu'er myself, so hurry up and leave. Maybe, Your Majesty is in the Qianqing Palace, waiting for news of my departure."
"Don't be impulsive. Doing more at this time will be wrong, but not doing anything is good. It's best to go home first, see your grandfather, see your parents, and listen to their opinions. The current situation is a bit delicate."
After Yang Fan finished speaking, he turned around and rode away with his soldiers.
Yang Fan went directly to Tongzhou, where there was a steamboat that could take him back to the new city. It was too tiring to ride back directly. It takes a day and a night to walk.
As soon as Yang Fan left Nanyuan. Immediately, a plainclothes Jinyiwei officer in charge of surveillance rode back to Yongding Gate to report.
Zhang Shize settled the more than a thousand people and assigned them to be responsible for the next few days. He arranged for those who would return to Beijing to camp on the spot and report to the British government if anything happened. Then he took his servants home.
In the Palace of Qianqing, the emperor, who had finished the imperial meeting, was relieved after hearing the report.
Yang Fan left immediately after receiving the order, and Zhang Shize also made arrangements to set up camp and returned home.
What he was most worried about was that Yang Fan and Zhang Shize would get into trouble. One of them is a rebellious master, and the other is a top-notch dude. Neither of them is a master who can swallow his anger.
He knew everything about the Xuanwu Army. He was reluctant to give out money to reward them, and it was difficult to hold them accountable for occupying the Jingying warehouse. After all, they had just succeeded in suppressing the rebellion, so it was not easy for them to let the horses run away and not eat grass at the same time.
At the same time, Qian Longxi and others heard the news in the cabinet and were surprised and said: "Did Uncle Dingyuan just leave like this? This is not his character."
Yang Fan had already left at this time. He waved his sleeves and did not take away a single cloud.
To be honest, Jingying was actually a burden to him.
The emperor and the cabinet are just a treasure, but Yang Fan is just a burden.
From the beginning, he was unwilling to train and take them to the Western Expedition. If Yang Fan had brought his own cavalry and infantry troops, why would he have bothered so much? The equipment and quality of the Beijing camp were too poor.
Now His Majesty plans to treat him coldly, which is exactly what he wants.
Now it is His Majesty who is sorry for him, not him who is sorry for His Majesty. He just pulled away. It's best never to bother him again.
Some people died, but not completely...
