1536 Young and ruthless
If Emperor Daoguang is unlucky, he will be in the hands of Yishan. During the First Opium War in 1840, due to the unfavorable initial war, the angry Emperor Daoguang dismissed Lin Zexu's command and replaced the incompetent Qishan. This Qishan was barely considered a peacemaker. He avoided fighting with the British army, secretly sent envoys to negotiate, and signed the "Travel of the Piercing Nose" behind his back.
The main content of this treaty is to ced the island of Hong Kong to Britain and compensate the British army with 6 million silver. The earliest text of ceding Hong Kong appeared in this treaty.
Emperor Daoguang is so angry now. How can the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom cede land and pay compensation? The compensation can be negotiated. How can the land be cede? The ancestors left no matter how much the state of the Celestial Kingdom can bow to the small country!
The furious Daoguang issued an order to investigate Qishan, deport him to Beijing and then all his property was confiscated.
The last person to replace Qishan is the famous Yishan! Yishan is extraordinary. The great-grandson of the fourteenth son of Emperor Kangxi, the nephew of Emperor Daoguang, the uncle brother of Emperor Xianfeng, who is 40 years old, and has a strong and beautiful royal bloodline.
But this guy is so funny. When he arrived in Guangzhou, he actually colluded with a counselor named Yang Fang. He actually thought of using the "yinmen formation" to fight against British warships.
What is the Yinmen Formation? Why does this name sound so evil? To put it bluntly, this is the toilet formation. I ordered local Baojia to plunder the private toilets, fill them with feces and urine, and rush to the British warships downstream.
This is also a famous name, called using evil to control evil! Don’t say that, no matter whether this strategy is easy to use or not, at least the creativity is very good, and it is also considered the original model of biological and chemical weapons. If a British army is nauseously vomited and dehydrated, or infected with dysentery, it will be considered that the formation has been captured.
Of course, Yishan's plan was useless. He was scared after a series of failures and finally beaten. He had no choice but to learn from his ex's private talks. This time, he even gave up Guangzhou City to the British army.
Later, after being reported by other officials, Yishan was escorted back to the capital's clan's mansion for custody. It was the royal blood that protected him. He was just a coward who was harsh and cowardly, but he was revived not long after.
Yishan went to Xinjiang to help with military affairs for a while, and was later transferred to the position of General Heilongjiang. The Qing Dynasty had already exhausted its energy and began to commit suicide. Just such an official with a criminal record, you dare to go to the border to get a job?
It can be seen that Xianfeng's ability to govern the country was like this. Xiao Letian once sighed with his direct descendants in private that the Qing Dynasty was deprived of Daoguang's hands. He shouldn't have chosen the fourth brother Yi Yi. If he chose the sixth brother Yi, the national destiny of the Qing Dynasty would have really changed.
Although Yi is Xiao Letian's political enemy, among the Manchu royal family, Yi is still quite a sensible person in terms of strength.
Xianfeng put the wrong person in the wrong position, and the end result was a more humiliating treaty from Aihui. This uncle and uncle really cheated his uncle and brother!
The current Heilongjiang General Tepuxin is the direct descendant used by Yishan. What kind of good bird would be if he could get along with him? His previous performances have proved everyone's judgment, and there were ridiculous laughter in the command center.
Zaichun blushed. He knew that Yishan was indeed embarrassing, and the court's handling was also inauthentic. Yishan committed serious crimes twice in a row but did not receive real punishment. Now Yishan actually holds a idle position in the clan mansion. I heard that he can eat and sleep, just like a pig.
"No! Are you good enough to hear me say..." Zai Chun growled with a red face and said, "When did I say I would rely on Tepxin? Since he has executed the imperial edict without hesitation, it means that he is no longer my loyal minister, so what's the use of me keeping him?"
"Give me white silk and pen and ink, I give Hunchun the imperial edict, appoint him as Ningguta, the two generals of Heilongjiang! Let him lead troops into Heilongjiang and find Tepuxin... a mutiny!"
Hiss... Everyone took a breath of air conditioning, Xiao Letian's eyes shrank, good boy! The teenager is cruel enough! He is just a ruthless move!
Zaichun's face was gloomy, "If you want to stay in the court, you have to choose a sideline. Since Hunchun is loyal to me, he must be loyal to me to the end! I will give him an imperial edict, let him lead his troops to Heilongjiang, take the opportunity to put Tepxin under house arrest, and use my imperial edict to take over the military power of Heilongjiang!"
"After things are done, so what if I give him the identity of a prince!"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one expected that Zai Chun would formulate such a brilliant plan, which was very dangerous, but once he succeeded, it was very meaningful and even decisive.
Seeing that the people around him stopped talking, Zai Chun asked anxiously, "Why don't you talk? Is it okay? You can say something!"
Wang Huaiyuan took out a small notebook from his pocket, looked through various information about Heilongjiang, and finally sighed, "To be honest, this plan is really 60% to 70% feasible... Hunchun has never stopped training troops. He is very kind to his subordinates, so the soldiers are very strong in combat!"
"Maybe it's much worse than the Rakshasa ghost, but it's definitely a win against the waste of Tephin! As for blocking Heilongjiang, it's easy to blockade Heilongjiang. There are only dozens of ferries that can pass through the army. Use explosives to blow up or sprinkle a lot of cinders. With the current solar term, the river will soon freeze!"
"The key is time! How can Hunchun obtain command as quickly as possible? How can all Tepxin accept him?"
Zai Chun sneered, "It's easy to deal with! Lead the troops into Qiqihar, confiscate their old nests, and control all the families of all the officers... I don't control the soldiers! Whoever doesn't listen will chop their entire family's heads. I think who can still work hard to fight Tepuxin!"
Xiao Letian shook his hand and said in his heart, "It's so murderous! Why does this little bastard feel different from before?"
Wang Huaiyuan nodded seriously and asked again, "So has Your Majesty considered General Hunchun's retreat? If he did this today, he would break completely with the two empress dowagers and princes. You are going to Europe! And there is still some time to take power. How can you protect Hunchun?"
Hum? Zaichun really never thought about this. He knew how to use Hunchun. How to protect Hunchun's life? He really didn't think about it. The little emperor tilted his head and thought about it.
"Let me do this! I will give Hunchun another imperial edict to refuse any transfer orders besides me. I will protect the position of the double general... Don't worry, as long as Hunchun insists on carrying the imperial edict and not entering Beijing, the court will have no choice but to do anything to him. After all, they have to be shameless!"
"If you really send a large army to conquer Hunchun? He has to give an explanation to the officials and people across the country, but they can't give this explanation! So they can only pinch their noses and recognize it! They can only collect Hunchun from the money and grain..."
Xiao Letian looked at the prime minister and smiled, "With a master here, Hunchun is afraid of being hungry? As long as Hunchun stays for these three years and when I take power, he will have a good life!"
Papa, Xiao Letian took the lead and slapped "Okay, a perfect plan, it's worth a bet... Your Majesty is ready to use treasures! The carrier pigeon will take your imperial edict to Ningguta!"
