"How was the fight?" At two o'clock in the morning, Zhao Kuo, who had already fallen asleep, was woken up by the guards. The emperor was wearing a Chinese-style silk suit, holding a slipper, holding a palm fan in his hand and buzzing mosquito books. He appeared in his office with sleepy eyes. The report sent back from Jiangxi has arrived.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, the foreign gun team defeated the Hunan Army!" Huan Zhuguo and his subordinates were waiting there long ago. These days, the entire Song Dynasty court was waiting for the battle situation on the Jiangxi front.

"What? I won the Hunan Army the first time?" Zhao Kuo was shocked when he heard this, then he was overjoyed. He threw away the palm fan, sat down at the desk, picked up the stack of reports and read it.

As he looked, this guy whispered to himself with a vulgar smile that was hit by Mark Six, "Damn it, the first time I played shooting at the same time, I actually beat the other party to the point of falling water? What? It rained heavily? God, you are so confused, you traitor! You are reappearing in Sanyuan! Ha, bayonets, those bs can't do it? Are you fighting the Hunan Army? Are you fighting the Hunan Army that drove the subordinates of several great gods in Tianjing to pieces?"

"Wow," finally Zhao Kuo couldn't help it anymore, laughed wildly, and he said, "Now my Imperial Guard is invincible in the Qing Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, the foreign gun team is invincible in the world. Your Majesty has been worried a lot a few days ago!" Huan Zhuguo was too worried to sleep. He had watched the foreign gun team training, the foreign gun team exercises, and followed Zhao Kuo to inspect the foreign gun team to go out. But he felt that except for the military uniform that was so perverted that both humans and gods were angry, this army was not as good as the Big Sword Team.

Of course he dared not say that the military uniform was drawn by his boss Zhao Kuo bit his pencil and put it in a chair and book for a day, and he seemed to be very satisfied with the uniforms of both British and French. Dou Wenjian was very dissatisfied and said directly: If he was asked to wear this thing, he would rather go to the battlefield with his shorts. Zhao Kuo was furious. He immediately scolded Dou Wenjian and ordered the entire army of the Crusaders of the court to take the lead in changing clothes. Don't change it? You should go to the prison to kill the enemy in the prison. Since that's the case, Huan Zhuguo didn't say a word and went to the battlefield with Zhao Kuo. He was so frustrated that he was too long.

But no one could have imagined that the foreigners' fighting style was so powerful that the Hunan Army had almost no power to fight back. Even if it rained later, the foreign gun fire was affected. The Crusaders almost defeated the Hunan Army for the third time in just one hand-to-hand charge. From Zhu Qingzheng's slightly trembling report font, it can be seen that this guy was also shocked.

"From the day when the foreign gun team was training, I knew that our army was invincible in the world and would defeat Qing Yao!" a secretary shouted loudly.

Then came the ministers' flattery time.

However, after hearing the crowd of people from Huan Zhuguo flattered, Zhao Kuo was still awake. He stood up suddenly, picked up the water pen on the table and made a move to hit the ministers in front of him. Everyone was stunned, and he reacted quickly and immediately protected his arms and face.

Seeing a group of ministers' shocked look, Zhao Kuo took back the dipping pen, and he snorted coldly: "Is it scary to throw a pen face to face? To put it bluntly, two groups of people lined up and stood up, throwing books and bullets on each other's faces. Don't say you're afraid, I'm afraid! If the discipline is not enough, one person throws the gun and flees, he will turn his head and run away. Fuck it. This is the first time we are queuing up and shooting people. I thought it would not work. It's the first time in hundreds of years that I did this. Fortunately, Zhuang Lizhong and the others are good, the Crusaders are much braver than me, so I can do it: lie down and hold the radio and call for air firepower support crazily. Of course, there is no one yet. My children are good! The whole army will be rewarded immediately!"

Huan Zhuguo was shocked by the stroke that Zhao Kuo had just thrown over. It was not a brush, the tip of the pen was iron! Huan Zhuguo immediately understood why Zhao Kuo was worried that the foreign gun team would fail for the first time. Since Duke Xiang of Song, China has probably not lined up face to face with the enemy to throw swords and books. And even if it was thrown, you still had to step on the Western drum beats. How terrifying.

At this time, Huan Zhuguo waved his hand back and presented a helmet to Zhao Kuo's desk. Zhao Kuo was stunned when he saw it. There was a helmet inside the thing, but the two ox horns on it were stabbed outwards, and there was a silk thread hanging behind it, looking like a bull's head.

"What is this?" Zhao Kuo asked, pointing to the thing.

"My escort did this, and he felt that our army's military uniform was so scared that the Hunan Army was so wild. According to the report of General Zhu Qingzheng, when the first time we saw our army group marching, the Hunan Army was scared to death, and the defeated army shouted ghosts, monsters, etc. If our crusaders brought such bullheads, the momentum would be even more amazing, and the enemy would definitely be defeated at first sight!"

Zhao Kuo laughed: "This is a mainlander in the Hunan Army, I have never seen a foreigner! The key to winning is definitely our local discipline."

Speaking of this, Zhao Kuo shook his head proudly and smiled: "But I didn't expect that my military uniform would have such a wonderful use. It's really a mistake."

"Your Majesty, since you have a great victory, will the support continue? The third foreign gun team, the new Dongguan Feilong Battalion and the artillery company of the Huwei Company, should have arrived in Ganzhou. The subsequent 2,000 Crusaders, Zhang Wenxiang's troops, which are mixed with hot and cold weapons, are ready to go, and a large number of muskets, ammunition, military uniforms and other military supplies are also ready to go on the road. Should we continue to drive to Ganzhou as planned? Should we increase or decrease?" Huan Zhuguo asked.

His meaning is very clear: these troops were originally put into the Jiangxi battlefield as planned, but that was based on Zhao Kuo's unhappiness. Now, the foreign gun team can sweep 6,000 Hunan-Jiangxi Lu Yong with only 120 people as the main force. Since it is so powerful, will the reinforcement plan change?

"No need." Zhao Kuo waved his hand: "As planned to be put on the Jiangxi battlefield, we must use our superior forces to completely crush the enemy, so that they will not have the chance to fight back."

Huan Zhuguo nodded and then reported: "Master Zhu Qingzheng requested the establishment of a shipyard in Ganzhou. He lacked sailors and shipbuilders. He asked His Majesty to provide supplements in the Guangdong area, and requested that most of the Sun and Moon Army be transferred to the navy, as well as a large number of water war artillery."

"Ganzhou is the beginning of entering the Yangtze River Basin. It is necessary to strengthen the naval army and make accurate reports. The naval army and foreign gun team can be recruited locally in Jiangxi." Zhao Kuo said without thinking.

Huan Zhuguo was in a bad mood. He coughed and said, "However, in order to supply and maintain the foreign gun team, we have some shortage of silver and money, and it is easy to say, but Zhu Qingzheng needed a lot of foreign guns and Xinshui warships. He may need too much silver."

"The opium hasn't been charged for me yet? Damn, let Zhong Jialiang and He Bo do it quickly!" Zhao Kuo was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "Give it. To maintain Jiangxi, the navy is not short of it. At worst, I will ask Napoleon III to take out a loan. Let the fuck these French guys give me usury!"

Huan Zhuguo looked at Zhao Kuo, laughed at himself, and then said, "Zhu Qingzheng also asked himself to train the foreign gun team and reorganize the entire army."

Sure enough, Zhao Kuo sneered: "No! I don't have money! Now I feel that it's a big deal to build a team of 20,000 people. Moreover, all arms and ammunition are imported, this is a fucking...... this fucking... is not a trick at all!"

As he said that, Zhao Kuo issued another order: "You can ask Zhu Qingzheng to draw troops to train foreign gun tactics by himself. Where are so many instructors in him? I don't care about the weapons and ammunition. In addition, let him establish a good relationship with the Prussian birdmen."

"Prussia?" Huan Zhuguo was a little puzzled.

Zhao Kuo shook his head helplessly. He waved his hand to the left, then to the right, and said, "Now I am jumping around between the British and French guys, as if bargaining: If you don't give it to me, I will hug others, but there are still too few two guys. Their mother often stucks my neck. Think about it, all the arms are in the hands of Britain and France. If they are willing, they can stumble on the supply of weapons or ammunition at any time! Now there is a Prussian. Maybe I can find the third one to hug, so we will get more."

Not long after, Xianfeng was also diligently reviewing memorials. He was more than Zhao Kuolai, a rebel warlord. Zhao Kuo had few officials under his command and handled the information quickly. His subordinates were full of officials. If they used food to compete for national strength, they could eat all the British Isles overnight, so the memorials were piled up in front of Xianfeng.

Moreover, the memorials have been high recently, because the fierce battle in the Yangtze River Basin is in full swing, especially Jiangxi, the capital of Jiangxi, was besieged by the new hair.

After rubbing his sore eyes, Xianfeng pressed his hand on his knee and touched the newly-patched patch on the dragon pants. He looked down at the square patch and murmured: "Is it easy for me? For the sake of your people in the world, I can't even refuse to replace the new dragon pants. I spent a 400 tael silver book with patches to continue wearing it! How can I have such a good master like me who is so thrifty and loving to the people in the world? You traitors rebel every day!"

Speaking of this, the owner's eyes were wet according to the patch worth 400 taels. He shook his head gently, drove the sadness out of his heart, and continued to work hard for state affairs.

In these memorials, the ministers of Hunan, Jiangxi and Anhui were all shouting at one thing: the short-haired demon army!

He knew about this army as early as Zeng Guofan reported the failure of Ganzhou. At that time, Zeng Guofan said that their Hunan Army and Ganyong cooperated, and suddenly encountered an army organized by a cult demon. Everyone was wearing high hats and wearing clothes like wild animal skins. His face was blue. When he was moving, he jumped forward in rows and made a monster sound. The evil music around him was their commander-in-chief. Without the evil music around him, they seemed to be unable to walk.

The Hunan Army had never seen such a demon. They were not prepared and were caught off guard. Of course, the entire army soon fought bloody battles under the leadership of Taqibu and defeated the Blue Demon army several times. However, the other party seemed to have been hit by a demon. He didn't know the pain. After jumping and being beaten back, he rushed up singing an evil song again. Finally, the Hunan Army couldn't stand it and evacuated the battlefield in Ganzhou in an orderly manner.

Here Zeng Guofan mainly blew Taqibu because he had this bannerman in his army, which could disperse the emperor's suspicion of him: Taqibu was good at leading the army, bravely broke through the Blue Demon army formation from behind, slashing and killing more than 100 people, but the other party sang a demon song and fought to the death with the Celestial Army in the circle. Taqibu could have killed all the remaining demons, but the war horse was shocked by the evil horse. Taqibu fell off his horse, and then he got on the horse again. At this time, the long hair and the remaining blue demons had gathered together. The enemy was powerful. Taqibu was wearing eight wounds, his two fingers were broken, and he called back to the camp.

Then the rain fell from the sky, and the blue demon's Western firearm could not be fired. Taqibu led the army again with injuries and killed another 1,000 opponents. However, after fighting for so long, the horse under his crotch was so exhausted that he couldn't stand it. Just as the brave general jumped into the horse and picked eight demon soldiers in front of him, it knelt in the mud with a click. The traitor sold Taqibu's brave general.

But even if Taqibu was surrounded by 3,000 blue demons and long-haired groups, he was not afraid of danger. He rushed left and right with a rifle in his hand, shouting to kill the enemy, and shouting that the soldiers would rush up.

Zeng Guofan sold a sinister trap here: He said that because the Hunan Army and Gan Yong fought together, the Hunan Army suffered heavy casualties, and most of the central army were Gan Yong. "Probably" I couldn't understand Taqibu's Hunan dialect or Beijing dialect, but I didn't come up-----meaning our Hunan Army is a hero, even if we were dragged down by the bastard Gan Yong, your beloved general was also killed by them!

As a result, a wall of flesh was surrounded by the lonely hero Taqibu - all made of long-haired corpses. In the end, Changhai was afraid of being killed by him and did not dare to attack, so he called out the ground firearms that could shoot from the rain. Dozens of people lined up to shoot at him.

No matter how awesome Tachibu was, he could not catch the books and play them well, so he died bravely.

But his divine power shocked Changmao. The next day after the war, no enemy dared to approach him within 10 meters of the place where he died (in fact, Zhu Qingzheng and the others were all shocked by the Crusaders, and no one cared about Taqibu's death. This man seemed to have died too easily, and a bayonet charge would be a shrimp; and there were so many dead people and military flags on the battlefield, and the Hunan Army left an empty camp and ran away. It was just that the human resources who cleaned the battlefield had all gone to copy the Hunan Army camp.)

Seeing Xianfeng was crying and said repeatedly: "It's still our bannermen who are brave! The Qing Dynasty is less than ten thousand, and it's invincible! If there were a thousand soldiers like Taqibu, I would cut off the heads of Hong Xiuquan and Zhao Kuo as a chamber pot now!"

Zeng Guofan said that the short-haired thief Guang Lu Yong had 30,000. He killed 45,000 demon soldiers, and Xianfeng was a little muttering: Is this guy true or false?

However, the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang attached a top-secret information to the expedited memorial. Xianfeng saw that he believed Zeng Guofan.

This top-secret information was obtained by the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang who claimed that his subordinates entered Longtan and entered the tiger's den. With the help of the Qing people in Haijing, Zhaokuo's den, exchanged for blood and life. There were indeed a few drops of dried blood on it, which looked very human.

This thing is a "The Royal Palace Newspaper of the Song Dynasty". Isn't the palace newspaper the Beijing newspaper? Xianfeng frowned slightly. Do you want to get this thing with blood?

The official newspaper of the Qing Dynasty's local government was renamed "Beijing News". It was released by the Military Affairs Office since the eighth year of Yongzheng. The main contents include palace gate copying (i.e. palace news, including important appointments), emperor's edicts, announcements and memorials of ministers, and a small amount of social news about disasters, rumors and other social news.

Of course, the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang did not brag all. He was just cheated and fooled by someone to get 1,000 taels of silver books to get the top secret information. The newspapers were everywhere in Haijing, with 10 cents a copy. Ye Mingchen from Zhao Kuo also did this kind of thing. During the Second Opium War, he spent a lot of money on intelligence and spent a lot of silver books to get several foreign newspapers. Then when the treasure was immediately pressed into the bottom of the box, he sang proudly: I had the real intention of the foreign government, but the foreigners copied his nest.

But after reading the content, Xianfeng immediately forgot whether the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang was stupid or bragging. The headline of this mansion was "For His Majesty's Glory, the Crusader's foreign gun team is invincible----Ganzhou Victory"

The text inside is mixed and the writing is extremely vulgar. He is used to seeing every word and memorial under his command, Xianfeng seemed to be punched in the chest. He didn't know much about the divine words, such as "discipline" and "spraying", but these things can also be guessed. The meaning of the full text is very clear: Guangdong Changmao won a great victory in Ganzhou, and the water and land were both great victory.

"Look at how you traitors!" Xianfeng resisted the disgust and the urge to tear the newspaper into pieces, and began to read the article of Changhai.

It is clear that the new army's Hu clothes and cavalry, using the tactics of foreign friends. With the blessing of God, for the glory of His Majesty, with few enemies and more. With the help of the Sun and Moon Legion of a friendly army, they completely defeated 6,000 Qing Yaos in Hunan and Jiangxi in one day. At the same time, the Song Dynasty navy saw that the Ganjiang Qing Yao wanted to use water to bravely go ashore to help Taqibu, and attacked with all their strength. They also repelled Peng Yulin's navy on the water, ensuring the fruits of the land battlefield. The article mentioned that the Hunan Army was not the opponent of the New Army in terms of firepower or bayonet fighting, and was defeated. More than 1,000 casualties were thrown in front of the formation in one day. After being captured, Taqibu was shot on the spot. His subordinates abandoned the camp overnight and fled. The new army suffered very few casualties, 37 people were killed and 112 people were injured. The Sun and Moon Army suffered heavy casualties, and 400 people were lost in the land battle in two days.

Seeing this, Xianfeng immediately believed in Zeng Guofan's memorial: According to the Qing Dynasty calculation method, our army's casualties were divided by 10, and the enemy's casualties were multiplied by 10.

Calculate the actual casualties of Changmao in this way, they should have killed 100 Qing soldiers. However, they were killed and injured 4,000-5,000 people!

Zeng Guofan said it was reliable! And there was no case of retreating if 100 people died or injured. It seems that Zeng Guofan was also honest with his own casualties. More than 1,000 people! Zeng Guofan is still very honest from this point of view.

Without Lu Yong of the Hunan Army, the Navy was retreated by Zhu Qingzheng. Relying on the transportation and support of the Sun and Moon Army Navy, the three battalions and an artillery company, the dissatisfied group of the Ruizhi Regiment swept across the Qing troops of Jiangxi Green Camp on land.

Later, the urgent memorial flew over like snowflakes: Ji'an Prefecture fell, Lin'an Prefecture fell, Ningdu Prefecture's Red Turban Uprising, Nanchang was in a hurry! The Haisong Army followed the Ganjiang River system and the target was directed to Nanchang, the capital of Jiangxi.

Officials from all over the country mentioned this strange blue demon army: Some officials said that Changmao tamed the monster, and his Lian Yong fled when he met him; some said that foreigners were coming again! China was about to be destroyed by the barbarians; some military admiral said that he fought bravely. However, Changmao's firepower was too strong, and the 3,000 Green Camp warriors were hit by the bombed shells in the air before they even went up (in fact, they collapsed immediately, turned their heads and ran away. They did not give the crusaders a chance to massacre them).

The head of Fuzhou Prefecture in the south of Nanchang was an ideal and ambitious Qing Dynasty leader. He wanted to break the magic magic technique of Changmao and invited 8 monks to form the exorcist cube formation in the city. However, in response to the Fanyin singing the roar of cannonballs. Then the group of masters threw away the wooden fish and ran faster than the sacrificial books. They also brought 2,000 soldiers in the city into chaos and fled outside the city with rope books. Moreover, because the adults were busy with rituals, they neglected the city defense. Changmao didn't even need to attack the city. He directly used the "mountain-sliding cannon" to blast the unreinforced city gates and occupied the Buddhist city where monks ran around without a single shot.

Of course, there are also a very small number of sober officials who report: they believe that this army is learning the tactics of foreigners. Of course, their focus is to angrily denounce Changmao's devils from his ancestors and to collude with foreign lands shamelessly. If they had ancestors, they would definitely be angry!

Jiangxi is in danger, but other brother provinces all hid:

The Fujian governor cried and said that he had discovered a warship of the cross thieves outside Xiamen. They wanted to attack Xiamen again. We were unable to rescue Jiangxi. In fact, there were ships of Song Dynasty outside the corner of Xiamen Town, and anyone could see them except for the blind books.

Zeng Guofan was crying and jumping into the river. His hard work was picked by Zhao Kuo with a bayonet. It was not enough to defend his old nest Hunan against the Taiping Army and aid Jiangxi at the same time.

Needless to say, there are a bunch of memorials every day to ask for help or destroy a certain uprising. But the actual situation is even worse. Guangdong was originally one and the water system was connected. Now that Guangdong is falling, Guangxi will be everywhere, and even the Qing soldiers are rushing to join. Zhao Kuo is convinced that after a while, he will throw a main force into Guangxi, and it is estimated that most of Guangxi will change their flag immediately.

In addition, the governors and governors from all over the country reported the unanimous agreement: we are training again, we are neatly paced, connected with the momentum, acrobatic rattan cards, and the launch of archers and bird guns is accurate.

The governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Raudian, was a little far away from Zhao Kuo, and it was still separated from Guangxi. Moreover, the place was too poor and his own troops were not enough. Zhao Kuo did not look at him. Compared with the enemy-occupied area and his colleagues who depended on the enemy-occupied area, he was so proud that he blew his head: It was said that in Yunnan and Guizhou, it was not only a problem that the bows and arrows had accurate heads, but 40% of the soldiers here could drive 12-force bows!

This has been stabbing the hornet's nest. Daoguang did not want to pass the throne to Xianfeng, but to pass it to Gui Shu Liuyi of later generations. The latter is said in the current dialect: This child is called cheerful, a sports star, riding horses and shooting archery very powerfully, and is very popular with Daoguang. Xianfeng was a potato in front of his brothers, and nothing was as good as others, but later he started packaging it.

When hunting, he deliberately did not shoot an arrow (it was not as good as Lao Liu if he shot), and Daoguang was surprised: Why didn't you shoot? Xianfeng cried and said in tears: "I'm soft-hearted and can't see the blood of small animals. Daoguang looked at it and shouted, this is an animal protectionist. If he had this heart, wouldn't it be better for our two-legged cattle and sheep to reproduce? It's the top six of the sports star hunting champion Lao Liu, so he passed the throne to Xianfeng.

But when it comes to archery, Xianfeng himself is not good, but he is very concerned about it.

It’s like you snatch someone else’s girlfriend in the future, and that person attracted the girl’s heart by playing the guitar. Although you can’t talk about it, it’s impossible for you to be unwilling to be aware of guitar knowledge in the future.

Therefore, Xianfeng, who was very knowledgeable about bows and arrows, was furious and directly slapped his face on the memorials of the Loong Dian. Zhu Ji said: "The twelve-powered bows are four of ten, and they are all whitewashing. There are only a few who can open eight or nine-powered bows. How can the twelve-powered bows be pulled and relaxed? Who can believe it? Reviewing the military status is the most important and important thing for the governor. You are a clerk and you are not familiar with them at ordinary times, but you can read them as usual and perfunctorily. It is no wonder that it is a long time to lose its name and not a real thing."

Now Zhao Kuo has crippled the Hunan Army, forcing the insufficient Hunan Army to choose one of the opponents between himself and the Taiping Army. Most of the other Qing soldiers were y warriors who used 12-force bows, so naturally the Song army immediately made Jiangxi decay.

At this moment, the ministers and consuls of various countries issued diplomatic statements: absolutely strictly adhere to neutrality and never interfere with the civil war. The Song Dynasty's foreign gun team was composed of the Han people themselves and had nothing to do with the governments of various countries.

Moreover, the British and French ministers also asked the Taoist platform to report in Shanghai, and they asked to talk to Xianfeng: the arms could be sold to the Qing Dynasty.

In fact, Britain and France have a good plan: Now Xianfeng, you see the greatness of the foreign gun team? Now we are allowed to trade freely, and we can intervene Zhao Kuo's Neck Book for you.

But they didn't know that it was difficult for the Qing emperor to hear the truth. Until now, Xianfeng didn't know what the foreign gun team was? And didn't his subordinate Zeng Guofan kill thousands of foreign gun teams? One person can do it, but other ministers can definitely do it! Our vast country cares about you foreigners?!
Chapter completed!
