10-60 The war is tight

10-61 Defender

These days, Liu Ziguang is apparently busy with Jinling Academy, but he is actually arranging the relocation of his properties in the capital area to the north. The Red Shirt Army has established a foothold in Beijing, and Zhamuhe has also made a name for himself on the Mongolian grasslands. Now in the north

It is your own stable rear.

The first was the family members of the Red Shirt Army. These people had to be transferred slowly so as not to attract the attention of the court. Liu Ziguang adopted the method of substituting the family members of the Red Shirt Army and moved some women and children to replace the family members of the Red Shirt Army. Then they divided into small groups and left the capital for Shanghai.

At Wusong Pier, we boarded a boat with the military supplies heading north to Beijing to meet up with our families.

Then there are the various research institutions and teaching institutions in the capital. Although they are under the control of Liu Ziguang, after all, the imperial industry cannot be openly transferred. They can only copy the technical data and various drawings and redraw them.

The originals were kept, and the backups were quietly sent to the north. Machinery and equipment were troublesome, especially some of the master machines, which were extremely expensive to build. There was no way they could be easily copied. So they had to fake the appearance of being scrapped, write them off from the Ministry of Industry's register, and then reorganize them.

Smuggled out for zero.

Professors from the Beijing Institute of Technology and technical officials from the Manufacturing Department of the Ministry of Industry were transferred to the northern part of the country by Liu Ziguang using his authority. Although the number was not large, they were all technical backbones who could stand alone. With them, the industrial system in the north could be improved.

Build it quickly.

Then there are the various private industries under Liu Ziguang's name, ranging from shipyards, machine factories, and ironworks to small tobacco workshops, canning companies, paper mills, and match factories. They all opened branches in the Beijing-Tianjin area in the north and expanded.

Operation, this is a normal expansion behavior of the enterprise, and it can be carried out openly without fear of others' suspicion.

Liu Ziguang transferred large shares of capital and purchased a coal mine in Kailuan, Hebei, and a copper mine in Chengde. He also won the bid to build the Beijing-Tianjin Railway. In order to open mines and build railways, he also recruited a large number of technicians in Jiangnan.

Workers went north, all in order to lay a solid foundation and form the strength to confront the south.

As early as the beginning of last year, Zhao Jing, the regent of the Song Dynasty, gave Liu Ziguang the suggestion to rebel against Ming Dynasty and form his own sect. However, Liu Ziguang kept pretending and did not really take this idea to heart. He is not a careerist and has no ambitions.

As an emperor, as long as the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and his family is prosperous and healthy, he is satisfied. But now the situation has changed. As Zhu Youxiao gets older, the Zhu family's genetic genes also begin to show up. They are suspicious and fickle.

, dual personality, this makes Liu Ziguang worried. Zhu Youxiao is his best friend and brother-in-law, and falling out with him is definitely something Liu Ziguang doesn't want to see.

But the situation was changing, and he had to change too. A few months ago, Zhu Youxiao was ready to kill just for the birth date of Liu Kangyang. Although the matter was later suppressed by the Queen Mother, the emperor also expressed regret and let it go.

He wiped out Dongchang by himself, but the seeds of distrust had already been sown in Liu Ziguang's heart.

The most ruthless emperor's family is that it is difficult to find a few conscientious people in the emperor's family. Struggles between princes have been common since ancient times. Many princes have died in the struggle for succession in the past dynasties. In the previous dynasty,

Not to mention, there were two troubles in the Ming Dynasty alone. Lord Yongle launched the Jingnan Campaign to seize the throne of Jianwen's nephew, which was a successful example. There was also the rebellion of King Ning of Jiangxi last year, when his uncle had his nephew.

It's nothing, it's normal for father and son to fight each other, and for brothers to fight each other with swords. Who do you think they are members of the royal family?

Therefore, it is very unwise to talk about feelings with Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Youxiao has lived in doubt and fear since he was a child. He has been pretending all day long at a young age and suppressing his true feelings. Over time, he has formed this kind of

Dual personality, no matter how loyal Liu Ziguang is to the Zhu family and no matter how great his achievements are, as long as he is not careful, it will lead to suspicion. When the suspicion cannot be resolved, it will turn into a sword fight.

Therefore, Liu Ziguang made two preparations. While easing the relationship, he retreated bravely when he had just accomplished great achievements. He gave away the easily obtained credit of capturing the Qing Emperor to others. He voluntarily handed over his military power and returned home to rest in order to resolve the emperor's suspicion.

We also transferred property and personnel to lay a solid foundation in the north and be prepared for emergencies at any time.

In short, Liu Ziguang will not fight back unless absolutely necessary, but when things come to a head and endanger the safety of him and his family, he will not hesitate to take up arms and fight.

Although the western region suffered a defeat, it was far from exhausted. I believed that Yuan Chonghuan would be able to regain this position after regaining his strength. Therefore, Liu Ziguang did not worry too much about the war situation. Instead, he took this opportunity to improve the education system and established the idea of ​​​​Jinling Women's College.

It was the girl from the Iron Blood Club who inspired him. Instead of letting girls dress up as men to go to school, why not just open a women's college in a dignified manner. However, such an epoch-making thing was actually messed up by someone who was not a powerful person.

But they are a bunch of old people in the capital who are stuck in the past.

Liu Ziguang was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger, so sending troops to suppress it was a bit of a fuss. He personally went out to change his identity, but being indifferent was not an option. Seeing that Jinling Women's Hospital was about to be stillborn, he suddenly thought of a person. As long as this person took action,

, everything will definitely be worry-free.

The opening day of Jinling Women's College is set for mid-November. At that time, many dignitaries will come to support, and many female students will come to enroll. Students from surrounding colleges will even spontaneously come to support. You can see

Opportunities to meet a large number of beauties are rare, except for the Qingming envoys' spring outing, which is also the day when the women's college starts school.

Naturally, those stubborn old men knew this very well, so they became even more excited and gathered a large number of people to block the entrance of Jinling Academy, intending to cause more trouble. As if they had been given blood, a group of old men sat on the ground and blocked all the cars and horses.

Claiming to fight to the death against the establishment of the Women's House.

In fact, these talents will not really die. They are just a group of frustrated old guys. People who have retired from officialdom feel lonely and old scholars who have been unsuccessful for many years are eager to get the attention and praise of others and to be the focus of social attention.

Among them, the establishment of the Women's Institute seems to have fallen from the sky, and they will naturally seize this opportunity to show their faces.

They thought that after these few days of demonstrations, all the women in the capital would give in and not dare to report to Jinling Women's College. Who knew that some people would actually come here despite the disapproval of the world.

The old guys were sitting cross-legged at the gate, talking, laughing, and drinking in front of hundreds of people. These old guys actually changed this trip into an autumn outing. They brought mats, wine bottles, and poetry collections and lingered unscrupulously in the beautiful scenery.

At the gate of Jinling Academy, there is an arrogant and arrogant person.

These pickles, who were usually ignored, suddenly stood at the forefront of the storm today, leading the trend of public opinion in the capital, Jiangnan, and even the country, attacking the reactionary forces that immoral and immoral, and safeguarding the traditional ideas of Confucius and Zhu Laofuzi. How can we not call them

They are proud.

The situation that I thought was a sure win suddenly changed. Several small sedans and donkey carts came from the direction of the capital. The curtains of the sedans were tightly covered. Although it was not luxurious, it was not the pomp of a poor family. It seems that a young lady from a well-to-do family in Zhongjing is traveling.

These cars and sedans went straight to Jinling Academy. The old guys saw it and were shocked in their hearts, but they remained calm on the surface and continued to chat and laugh. When the cars and sedans came to the door and saw a lot of people blocking the way, they were so surprised. The housekeeper came over to talk.

"Please, old gentlemen, lend us a light and let our young lady come over."

The old guys were unmoved. The housekeeper thought he didn't explain clearly, so he said it again loudly.

The old guys slowly turned around and asked: "Going over? What are you going to do? Are you going to the immoral Jinling Women's Hospital?"

The housekeeper said: "Why should gentlemen worry about where my young lady is going?"

When the old guys heard this, they became angry and shouted loudly: "We have no control over your lady in heaven or on earth, but we have to control her when she goes to Jinling Women's Academy! As long as we old bones are here, we will never Allow this kind of unnatural thing to happen!"

The housekeeper was so frightened that he took two steps back and said in surprise: "You also have to take care of other people's household affairs. Do you still have royal laws?"

The old guys became even more angry, and said with red faces and thick necks: "If the road is uneven, someone will step on it. We don't care who cares about this matter. Co-educational education for women is unethical. In the long run, the country will be ruined and morals will be ruined. If the folk customs are corrupted, the Ming Dynasty will be ruined! Don’t you, these obsessed girls, know any sense of shame? Do you still have a tutor?"

After saying these heartbreaking words, the idle people watching the excitement around him cheered. The old guys were even more proud. They pointed at the small sedans and cursed even more unscrupulously. I took out my fan and fanned it a few times, feeling very proud.

There were more and more people, blocking the entrance of Jinling Academy. Those little sedans could not move forward or turn back. The housekeepers, servants and mothers were all anxious, and there were also cries from the sedans. It seemed that these little sedans could not move forward or turn around. After all, the woman couldn't stand the abuse and cried to express her surrender.

However, the cries sounded like a demonstration to the old guys. They were extremely unhappy and extended the insults to the families of these young ladies, saying that their parents were unqualified and uneducated, which is why they gave birth to such immoral daughters. Today, unless these parents who dote on and indulge their daughters come to plead guilty and kowtow in front of Confucius, they will not be able to take their daughters back.

In fact, these old guys dared to be so arrogant because they recognized that their opponents were powerless. After all, they were all daughters of rich men from small families. Bullying was bullying. The weaker their opponents were, the more unscrupulous they were.

In the midst of the commotion, a gong was heard, and the onlookers who were blocking the road drove over. Two carriages drove over, escorted by a large group of servants. The carriages were simple in style but made of solid materials. At first glance, they were driven by wealthy people. The servants They were even more majestic, wearing thin-soled fast boots, short soft hats, and carrying eyebrow sticks in their hands. Anyone who dared to block the road would directly use the stick to greet them.

This situation was also expected by the old guys. They exchanged glances with each other and confidently waited for the newcomers to come and negotiate.

Sure enough, a distinguished butler came over and said, "Mrs. Yipin Gaoming is going out, and everyone else is waiting to retreat quickly!"
