Ronglu was cunning and would never fight an unprepared battle. Although he was helpless when forced to rebel by Yisiha, when he saw the power of Prince Gong, he really wanted to help.
Who doesn’t want the power of the dragon? But Conglong's rebellion could not sacrifice his family. Ronglu used the British news channels to secretly tell his mother everything he had done.
Otherwise, this banner aunt is more useful than men, these women can really hold up half the sky!
He was shocked at first when he heard the news about his son, but he calmed down within three minutes. He called his wife and some of his most trusted nephews to have a secret meeting.
It was said at the meeting that Ronglu is the eldest official in our family, the most promising, the best at being an official, and the most likely to prosper the family!
Now that Ronglu has made a decision, our family has no reason to hold back!
They say country is a country, we have to take care of this family first before thinking about other countries! The emperor's position belongs to Aisin Gioro. It doesn't matter how much they want to snatch it. Anyway, the meat will rot in their Aisin Gioro family's pot.
Our little family cannot lose our lives because of the internal strife of the Aixinjueluo family. It doesn’t matter who becomes the emperor if we live, we are also dignitaries of the Eight Banners!
Since ancient times, wealth has been sought in danger. At my age, I have seen a lot and heard a lot. This is what the imperial court is all about!
During the Xinyou years, if the Eight Ministers Gu Ming had been more ruthless, it is estimated that the bones of the Queen Mother and Prince Gong of the two palaces would have been turned to ashes by now. By then, the history books would not be able to say who is not a thing!
The same is true now. We people must be loyal to our family first, and then honor the court later!
Haha, let alone the imperial court, I guess I won’t be able to tell who is righteous and who is evil in the future!
If we lose today and Emperor Guangxu ascends the throne, our name will still go down in history!
Act now, let's escape from the capital!
The old lady used the excuse to go to Xishan Village to escape the famine, and left Sijiu City before the court knew about the rebellion, leaving a nephew behind at home.
This is the second boldest nephew in the family after Ronglu. The old lady asked to stay in the house to calm the people of the court before the news of Ronglu's rebellion spread!
Once the court knows about Ronglu's rebellion, they will definitely come and raid your home. At this time, there will naturally be friends in the palace who are close to our family to send you a message.
When you get the news, you run away, and the British Embassy has a place for you!
Of course, if you didn't escape... the old lady said and there was sudden silence.
The nephew laughed loudly and knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Hahaha... Hasn't the person who has accomplished big things since ancient times done it with his head? If he doesn't take risks, there will be no wealth to enjoy in the future!"
"My nephew knows everything. The only thing I'm worried about is your grandnephew... Take him away and let my brother leave him a fortune!"
"Hahaha... Life is a big gamble, winning or losing is all decided by a fine line! If God doesn't take my life, I will be rich and enjoy all the things I follow my brother in the future!"
The old lady nodded, "Have some backbone! This is what our banner people are like! If you want wealth in danger, you have to sacrifice your life... Don't worry, the future wealth will be indispensable for your team!"
The old lady left home with her family members and children to go to Xishan. In fact, she fled southward. Prince Gong's direct descendants had already made an appointment to wait at a fixed place. They picked up the family and immediately sent them to a safe place.
How did Li Lianying know that there were no old ladies in Xishan at all? The cousin she met here was also a dead soldier from Ronglu's family, so he was mentally prepared to lose his head!
The Ronglu family never expected that the imperial court would rush over to send the information!
Cixi never thought that Ronglu had betrayed the court. She thought Ronglu was on his way back to Beijing!
According to Cixi's judgment, General Ronglu Xi'an, the general who commanded the army, would be entrusted with important tasks by his son as long as he returned to the capital and did not enter the city!
As long as Ronglu has military power and fights in the same trench as Fuqing, there will be a chance!
You can secretly search for Fu Qing's dirty information, and you can also secretly sell Fu Qing's location information to the enemy. If there is a chance... When the sky is dark and the sky is dark and the sky is dark and the sky is dark, you can directly kill him, and then put the blame on Guiziliu.
These are common tricks used in war to deceive people, and they are not unusual at all!
So Cixi ordered Li Lianying to send a message to Ronglu immediately, asking him to prepare early. How could she know that Ronglu at this moment...had already surrendered to the Japanese Six!
At five o'clock in the evening on April 12, Ronglu, who led 50,000 troops on the eastern front, was stationed on the west bank of the Baigou River not far east of Gaobeidian. The march in the past few days could be described as overwhelming.
There was no resistance at all along the way. All the Qing Dynasty camps were empty. Some of the soldiers in the local green camp surrendered, and most of the rest fled.
Originally, the battalion leaders were overstaffed and had no combat effectiveness at all. Some green battalions only had one or two thousand people. How could they withstand an army of fifty thousand?
Although two-thirds of the 50,000 people are refugees, there are too many people!
The Green Camp did not want to serve the imperial court at all, and the Manchu Eight Banners garrison, let alone the Manchu Eight Banners garrison, had long been infiltrated by Guiziliu's meticulous work. Foreseeing Emperor Guangxu's Dragon Flag, they immediately surrendered.
Although they are all small camps with hundreds of people, they are all bannermen, and their influence is even greater!
All the big towns and villages along the way, all the landowners and wealthy people, knelt down to greet the king. The family did not have much food, but in order to avoid war disaster, they still used a large amount of food to reward the army!
These landowners and rich people who usually live in the fish and meat village kneel on both sides of the road like dogs, praying for honor and wealth to raise their noble hands and not to loot the village. Gold, silver, treasures, food and cloth are poured out of their pockets!
No one will be refused honor and wealth, and you will receive as much as you give! However, Ronglu knew very well how to calm the people, "I will take those of you who are filial to me! It's not that I'm greedy for money, it's because I won't be at ease if I don't take them... Hahaha!"
"Isn't that right? If I don't take your money, you will be afraid that I will massacre the village when you come back? Is that right?"
"Keep your heart in my heart. I have accepted your gifts and your money. Naturally, I will not kill you!"
"Not only that, this general will also write you a commendation note to reward the army!"
"After Emperor Guangxu ascends the throne, maybe this note of commendation to the army will be of great use... Hahaha!"
Oops, these wealthy locals suddenly changed from a pale face to a glowing face and kowtowed quickly, "Generals and princes will last forever! Generals and princes will last forever!"
"Long live Emperor Guangxu...Long live! Long live!"
Ronglu really had an evil idea. He plundered at least more than 400,000 taels of food along the way, taels of silver, cloth, jewelry, etc., which was equivalent to 800,000 to 900,000 taels of cash!
It can be seen from the impact of the war on the people that so much was collected in such a short journey of more than 200 miles from Yixian Bypass New City to Gaobeidian.
If he had to move to several provinces, he would really get rich and die!
Not only money and food, but also troops were replenished. Since the refugee army from the south was replenished every day, Prince Gong continued to send them to the front line.
Ronglu has now recruited another 20,000 soldiers, which now makes him an army of 70,000!
Note: Today is New Year’s Eve. I wish all book friends a happy New Year, may the Year of the Ox be full of good luck, and the Year of the Rat be rid of all the bad luck!
Moo moo!
