Jia Yun, who is wearing a general's armor and a general's sword, is already very heroic and has the demeanor of a general. When he sits on the emperor's throne under the "Upright and Bright" plaque, he looks even more heroic and majestic.
Linlin, and then contacted him and found out that he had led the Chang'an camp to Beijing and even occupied the palace...
Therefore, this scene fell in Lian Liang's eyes, and Lian Liang couldn't help but sigh, "The new emperor!"
At this moment, Lian Liang seemed to feel that Jia Yun in front of him was already the new emperor who had successfully won the throne.
The reason why Jia Yun sits on the emperor's throne now is not because she can't wait to show off.
This is because, in the Qing Dynasty, under normal circumstances, as soon as the old emperor died, the successor would be greeted by the princes and ministers, called the emperor, and could sit on the emperor's throne and draft imperial edicts.
After the Empress Dowager announced that Xia Hao would succeed to the throne, Xia Hao sat on the throne of the emperor.
The coronation ceremony is mainly a formality.
Jia Yun now sits on the throne of the emperor because he wants to tell the princes, ministers and officials that he is the successor to the current Qing Dynasty emperor, and he is the emperor now, so that the princes, ministers and officials will be in awe of him, and it will also be convenient for him to persuade the princes next
Ministers and officials...
After Jia Yun sat down on the emperor's throne, she was staring at Lian Liang and preparing to ask questions. At this moment, officers and soldiers from the Chang'an camp came to report: "Report... The general, Lord Cao Wei, Cao Wei and Lord Xiao Fuxiao are here to see you."
, said he had something important to report."
The officer and soldier paused for a moment while speaking, because they saw Jia Yun sitting on the emperor's throne, and they didn't know how to call Jia Yun in an instant. Logically speaking, such Jia Yun can already be called the emperor, but this officer and soldier didn't know yet.
I wondered whether I should call him that at this moment. After a pause, he still called me General King.
Among the princes and ministers standing outside the palace just now was Xiao Fu, a bachelor of the palace and minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Jia Yun has a close relationship with Xiao Fu, and now Cao Wei is anxious to bring Xiao Fu to see him. Jia Yun wants to come, there must be something important. It must be what Cao Wei heard Xiao Fu say just now, so Jia Yun will not neglect it.
: "Xuan!"
Cao Wei and Xiao Fu walked into the palace together and saw Jia Yun sitting on the emperor's throne. Cao Wei was not surprised, but Xiao Fu was stunned and hesitated.
Immediately, Xiao Fu saluted Jia Yun: "Xiao Fu, a humble minister, pays homage to the emperor!"
Lian Liang, standing aside, smiled bitterly: "..."
This time, Cao Wei was surprised: "..."
The two of them thought at the same time: Mr. Xiao, you are paying your respects too soon!
Jia Yun did not expect that Xiao Fu would be so bold in this kind of thing. She did not expect that the first person to call him emperor was Xiao Fu, not Cao Wei, Chu Mingkai or his bodyguards, generals and soldiers...
…
Cao Wei also followed suit and saluted: "The humble minister Cao Wei pays his respects to the emperor!"
Jia Yun said: "Master Cao and Master Xiao, please be free."
Cao Wei and Xiao Fu stood up. Cao Wei said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Mr. Xiao has something important to report."
After speaking, Cao Wei glanced at Xiao Fu, and Xiao Fu said to Jia Yun: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, the Empress Dowager has handed over the Beijing Camp Tiger Talisman and a copy of the imperial edict drafted by Prince Zhongxian to Prince Zhongshun.
Prince Zhongshun went to Fengtai to mobilize the capital camp!"
Jia Yun frowned upon hearing this.
Jia Yun knew that if he raised troops to march to Beijing this time, as long as Cao Wei and Chu Mingkai really assisted him, then he would only have two armies to threaten him this time, one was the Nine Gate Infantry Patrol Fifth Battalion, and the other
It is Jingying.
Jia Yun originally had hope, wondering if she would have great luck in this matter. Ren Tianxiao, the admiral of the Nine Sects, also surrendered to him. At the same time, when he occupied the palace, the Empress Dowager had not had time to send people to adjust the Beijing camp...
…
It's a pity that Jia Yun doesn't have such great luck in this matter.
Ren Tianxiao did not submit, and even though Jia Yun quickly occupied the palace, the Empress Dowager still sent people to adjust the Beijing camp, and the person sent was Prince Zhongshun, who had always been at odds with Jia Yun...
Then the current situation may be dangerous.
The Beijing camp has 40,000 officers and soldiers. Although its combat power is not as good as that of the Chang'an camp, it is still powerful. Moreover, the Beijing camp's army is stationed in Fengtai, southwest of the city of Shenjing, less than forty miles away from the imperial palace.
Fortunately, Prince Zhongshun had just left not long ago. When he arrived at Jingying, it would still take time for the Jingying Jiedushi to mobilize his troops, and it would also take time for the army to arrive at Shenjing. Even if the Jingying Jiedushi led a cavalry army to attack first,
In Shenjing City, the whole process will take at least an hour.
For Jia Yun now, time is already very tight!
Immediately, Jia Yun looked at Lian Liang, the Minister of Military Aircraft and the Minister of War: "Master Lian, where is the tiger talisman used to patrol the fifth battalion of the Nine Gate Infantry Army?"
The tiger talisman is a military talisman used by the emperor to mobilize his troops. It represents military power and is shaped like a crouching tiger. A tiger talisman will be divided into two halves, with one half given to the military generals and the other half held by the emperor.
When the emperor dispatched troops and generals, he would send half of the tiger talisman he held to the generals. If the two halves of the tiger talisman matched, it would mean the emperor's military order.
There is not just one tiger talisman, there are many, for example, there is the Chang'an Camp Tiger Talisman, there is the Jingying Tiger Talisman, there is the Nine-Sect Infantry Patrol Five Camp Tiger Talisman...
Lian Liang paused and said, "It's in the Nuan Pavilion in the palace."
Jia Yun nodded and walked into the Nuan Pavilion with Cao Wei and Lian Liang. This Nuan Pavilion was both the place where Emperor Tianzhi often rested and the study room where Emperor Tianzhi often stayed.
Soon, Cao Wei discovered the tiger talisman used to patrol the fifth battalion of the Nine Gate Infantry Army. Jia Yun sat at the desk and quickly drafted an imperial edict, stamped it with the seal of the Chuanguo Jade Seal, which was also in this warm pavilion.
.
Jia Yun handed the imperial edict and the tiger talisman to Cao Wei and issued some orders.
Jia Yun ordered Cao Wei to quickly go with Chu Mingkai and Pang Yuan to find Ren Tianxiao and persuade Ren Tianxiao to surrender. Then he took Ren Tianxiao from the outer city (South City) to the inner city and let the Nine Gate Infantry patrol the fifth battalion.
After withdrawing the troops, the seven gates of the outer city and the nine gates of the inner city were all guarded by the Imperial Guards and the Guard Battalion, and the five patrol battalions of the nine gate infantry were sent to guard the main camp in the outer city.
If Ren Tianxiao still refused to surrender, Cao Wei, Chu Mingkai, and Pang Yuan rushed to the outer city with their troops. With the help of imperial edicts and tiger talismans, they marched from the outer city to the inner city and forcibly occupied the seven gates of the outer city and the nine gates of the inner city.
Hope this goes well!
In addition, Jia Yun also has a first-hand preparation, which is to persuade Lian Liang, the Minister of Military and Aircraft and the Minister of War. According to Jia Yun's knowledge, the current Beijing Camp Jiedushi Lu Lian has a close relationship with Lian Liang. It can be said that
, the two are both teachers and friends, and Lian Liang is Lu Lian’s mentor and friend.
So Jia Yun tried to persuade Lian Liang and asked Lian Liang to persuade Lu Lian, the military governor of the Beijing camp, to surrender!
Xiao Fu left first, but Cao Wei did not leave immediately. Jia Yun asked him to wait and prepared to persuade Lian Liang.
At this moment, two more people came to the hall to meet, namely Mu Fu and Yu Keping!
Jia Yun knew that the Jinyi Army in Shenjing City had now expanded to 3,000 people.
Jia Yun was previously the commander of Jinyi Mansion. Even though he has left his post for more than a year, he still has great prestige in Jinyi Mansion.
After Meng Jing's death, the Jinyi Army in Shenjing City was led by Mu Fu and Yu Keping. Both of them had a close relationship with Jia Yun. They were once Jia Yun's confidants and were also Jia Yun's friends.
Jia Yun also knew that due to the influence of Meng Jing's assassination of Emperor Tianzhi, Jinyi Mansion was guarded by the Imperial Guards. Mu Fu and Yu Keping were also guarded by the Imperial Guards. Their futures were gloomy...
Under such circumstances, how could Jia Yun not use the Jinyi Army when he raised troops to seize the throne this time? The Jinyi Army of 3,000 people is not a weak army, not to mention that Jia Yun believes that this army will be loyal to him.
In fact, when Chu Mingkai sent his personal soldier Xu Jing to find Jia Yun, Cao Wei and Chu Mingkai suggested that Jia Yun mobilize the Jinyi Army once he leads his army into Beijing.
The Yamen of Jinyi Mansion is right in front of the palace. Mu Fu and Yu Keping were guarded in the Yamen, and they were guarded by the Imperial Guards under Chu Mingkai.
When Jia Yun led his army to the palace just now, he asked Chu Mingkai to send people to summon Mu Fu and Yu Keping. So now, Mu Fu and Yu Keping came to Qianqing Palace to see him.
Mu Fu and Yu Keping walked into the palace and saw Jia Yun sitting on the emperor's throne. They were both stunned and hesitated for a moment. Then, Yu Keping took the lead in saluting: "The humble minister Yu Keping pays homage to the emperor!"
Mu Fu has always been cautious in his words and deeds. Even so, he also followed up with a grand ceremony: "The humble minister Mu Fu pays homage to the emperor!"
Jia Yun nodded with satisfaction, then briefly explained the current situation, and then solemnly said: "Are you two willing to lead the Jinyi Army to loyally help me guard the palace?"
Yu Keping said: "I am willing to go through fire and water for the emperor without any hesitation!"
Mu Fu followed closely and said, "Wei Chen is willing!"
Jia Yun immediately walked into Nuan Pavilion, quickly drafted an imperial edict and handed it to Mu Fu and Yu Keping. With this edict, it would be more convenient for the two of them to lead three thousand troops in brocade to guard the palace.
Jia Yun wants the imperial guards and the military camp to guard the seven gates of the outer city and the nine gates of the inner city, which means that the palace guard force is weak. There are mainly only a few thousand Chang'an camp cavalry left. It is necessary to strengthen the guard, and three thousand Jinyi
The military first used it here.
Mu Fu and Yu Keping went to summon the Jinyi Army with the imperial edict.
At this time, Jia Yun looked at Lian Liang, who had been standing in the hall just now, and said to Lian Liang: "Master Lian, do you know that our Qing Dynasty is facing the crisis of overthrow?"
Lian Liang paused and said, "I know."
These three simple words surprised Jia Yun. Although Lian Liang did not call Jia Yun the emperor, nor did he call himself "Wei Chen", he did call himself "Chen", even if this does not mean that he recognized Jia Yun.
As a new emperor, it at least shows that he doesn't have much resistance to this matter.
Jia Yun asked: "Why?"
Lian Liang started talking, and what he said was that the Qing Dynasty had not yet put down the rebellion, and the Jing family was expected to raise troops to rebel in the west. Once the Jing family raised troops, they might be stronger than the previous Qing Dynasty.
There is another point that Lian Liang does not hesitate to say frankly, that is, now that Jia Yun has raised an army to seize the throne, it means that there may also be chaos within the Qing Dynasty...
In this case, the Qing Dynasty was already facing the crisis of collapse!
Jia Yun nodded: "As expected of Mr. Lian, whom I have always admired."
Jia Yun then said seriously: "Lord Lian, I respect you, so now I want to speak frankly to you. Please listen carefully."
"I have led 10,000 Chang'an camp cavalry to Beijing, and the Chang'an camp army will arrive later."
"I have received assistance from Master Cao and Master Chu Mingkai Chu. I also have a part of the Nine-Sect Infantry Patrol and the Fifth Battalion who surrendered to me, and there will also be assistance from the Jinyi Army."
"In addition, I have recruited the flying talisman, mobilized the Inner Mongolian battalion army, and the outer firearms battalion army has come to Beijing to assist me."
"I will also send Mr. Cao and Mr. Chu to deal with the fifth battalion of the nine-door infantry patrol, and let the imperial guards and the guard camp guard the seven gates of the outer city and the nine gates of the inner city. If this goes well, even if the Beijing camp comes,
It doesn’t pose much of a threat to me anymore.”
"If this matter does not go well, all the military forces under my banner will have to fight with the Beijing camp in Shenjing City. I believe that even so, I can wait in this palace until the Chang'an camp army arrives. By then
, the Beijing camp will definitely be defeated by me!"
"It's just that once this war breaks out, the Shenjing City will be in flames, smoke will fill the air, corpses will litter the fields, and blood will flow into rivers. At that time, the capital will be destroyed, and many people will suffer."
"Moreover, the military strength of the Qing Dynasty will be greatly damaged as a result. It will be difficult to resist the rebellious Jing family and Shui family. There may also be other forces that rebel, and the dynasty will most likely be destroyed!"
"I am raising troops this time not just for my own selfish interests, but also to celebrate the dynasty!"
"Lord Lian should know that if I can't afford the army, the new emperor may be the eldest son of the emperor. The eldest son of the emperor is arrogant and stupid. If he becomes the new emperor, I don't think he has the ability to deal with the chaos in the court and the rebellion of the Jing family and the Shui family.
, the Qing Dynasty will most likely fall."
Having said this, Jia Yun suddenly stood up from the emperor's throne, walked to Lian Liang, and bowed to Lian Liang: "I ask Lord Lian to put the overall situation first, the survival of the Qing Dynasty, and the sacred city of Jing.
As a matter of priority, take the people in the city as your priority and help me go and persuade Lu Lian, the military governor of the capital camp, to surrender!"
"If this happens, I will make Lord Lian a first-class Duke. From now on, I will make Lord Lian my friend. I can also guarantee to Lord Lian. If this happens, I will have full confidence to put down the rebellion of the Jing family and the Shui family.
Protect our Qing Dynasty country!"
Jia Yun's words are indeed honest enough, but they are still exaggerated.
The exaggeration is that even if Jia Yun had to lead his army to fight with the Jingying camp in Shenjing City, causing great damage to the Qing Dynasty's army, he would probably be able to stop the rebellious Jing family and Shui family because he was making bayonets and flints.
guns and grenades, and there are other advanced weapons that can be developed and manufactured...
Jia Yun was so honest with Lian Liang because he understood Lian Liang, knew that Lian Liang was not sinister, and appreciated him. Previously, Prince Zhongshun proposed to Emperor Kang Xing that he should be dismissed from his post as Chang'an Jiedushi, but Lian Liang opposed it.
This time, it was Cao Wei and Chu Mingkai's suggestion to persuade Lian Liang to persuade Lu Lian, the military governor of the Jingying camp, to surrender. Even if they did not suggest this, Jia Yun would do it.
After Lian Liang pondered for a while, he knelt down and said, "I obey your order!"
Jia Yun smiled happily. This was the first time he smiled happily since he started the army.
Immediately, Jia Yun quickly drafted an imperial edict to Lian Liang and sent 500 Chang'an camp cavalry, led by a close general. He also asked Cao Wei to tell Chu Mingkai to send 500 Imperial Guard cavalry.
A thousand cavalrymen escorted Lian Liang to leave the capital through Xizhimen to find Lu Lian.
Because the other gates of the inner city and the outer city are still guarded by the Fifth Battalion of the Nine-men Infantry Patrol, if Lian Liang leaves the capital through these gates, he may encounter obstruction, and Xizhimen is occupied by Chang'an Camp, and the gate inside Xizhimen
The streets were also filled with Chang'an camps and imperial guards.
