The Qiuba people in the barracks have always believed in only one thing: the strong are respected!
Whoever is ruthless and cruel can lead everyone to victory, whoever is the master!
As for whether you share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, it actually doesn't matter.
What really matters is that the soldiers follow you and have hope.
Huo Qubing always ate big meat, drank fine wine, and had beautiful girls, and never shared these with the soldiers. However, the soldiers were willing to take risks with him.
The root cause is actually the military merits achieved by the soldiers, the money and women they grabbed. Huo Qubing never disdained to be greedy!
This was enough to drive the soldiers to work with Huo Qubing!
In the eyes of others, Fengtai Camp is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, a place where heavy troops are gathered.
Yuzhu, however, was dismissive.
As long as the Eight Banners Firearms Battalion completely falls into the palm of Yuzhu's hands, let alone the more than 10,000 elite Eight Banners soldiers, even if the number is increased five times, they will be nothing in front of Yuzhu's new army!
In the modern army, once the four branches of infantry, cavalry and artillery are fully established, it will form a crushing generation gap against the feudal army!
In the Battle of Baliqiao, Senggelinqin faced the 8,000 British and French allied forces with more than three times the superior force, but was completely defeated.
This is proof!
Yuzhu picked up the other flintlock pistol on the handsome desk, played with it, and asked coldly: "If you don't accept it, just stand up, so as not to panic."
"I refuse to accept it!" Another staff leader stepped forward angrily.
"Bang." Yuzhu didn't wait for the counselor to finish speaking, and shot him in the chest.
"Boom." A black iron tower-like mountain of flesh collapsed, without even a twitch, and died completely.
Yuzhu put down the pistol that was smoking white, picked up an unfired pistol, and continued to ask: "Who else is dissatisfied?"
Serbi was shocked and dumbfounded. Yuzhu was so brave. He actually dared to kill two third-grade counselors in the Fengtai camp.
Yuzhu scanned the whole place and saw that all the generals lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze. He couldn't help but raise his chin high.
Well, that’s good. Everyone knows I’m afraid, so that’s right!
The logic in the military camp is that the soft are afraid of the hard, and the violent are afraid of risking their lives!
As an imperial envoy, Yuzhu deliberately provoked the generals in the big tent. To put it bluntly, he dug a hole and waited to kill people to establish his authority.
The deeper the hatred between Yu Zhujie and the more Kangxi trusted him as he killed people in the Fengtai camp!
I won’t go into details about the emperor’s inner skills, it’s natural for those who understand them to understand.
According to the original plan, a total of five flintlock pistols were placed on the table in front of Yuzhu, and it was expected that five generals would be killed.
Now, only two generals were killed, and the arrogant generals in the camp were frightened. Yuzhu felt very regretful!
"Master Wei, these two thieves despised the imperial envoy, should they be killed?" Seeing that no one dared to stand up anymore, Yuzhu turned to look at Wei Zhu.
Wei Zhu was also used to seeing dead old eunuchs. Although her face was a little pale, her heart was not disturbed.
"Of course he should be killed." Wei Zhu knew in his heart that Yuzhu deliberately wanted to kill someone, but he couldn't find anything wrong with him.
The jade pillar holds a golden decree, which represents the supreme imperial power.
Two dead ghosts, with simple minds and strong limbs, blatantly provoked the imperial power. Their death was in vain, and their relatives could not even get the pension money from the imperial court.
Alas, this man is indeed stupid!
After killing someone to establish his authority, Yuzhu's instructions to write a clear resume were carried out very smoothly.
After the generals finished writing, Niu Tai received a brocade box. After locking it, he held it in front of Wei Zhu with both hands.
Wei Zhu took a deep look at Yuzhu. His heart was like a mirror. Yuzhu deliberately didn't look at it, but he wasn't allowed to look at it either. He could only give it to Lord Long Live to look at.
Alas, such a powerful Yuhou, you must not be your enemy!
Wei Zhu made up his mind to make good friends with Yuzhu.
That time, Liang Jiugong failed to foment discord and was humiliated. The lesson is still fresh in Wei Zhu's memory and he dare not or forget it.
Yuzhu killed two third-grade ginseng leaders, but helped the old emperor figure out who belonged to whom. Not only did he have no fault, but he also made great achievements!
If you are in the officialdom, as long as you fully stand on the fundamental interests of the old emperor, and make the old emperor reluctant to treat you as an outcast, even if you kill an important general, it will be in vain.
On the contrary, if the old emperor wants to go east, but you insist on going west, hehe, you will pick out the bones from the eggs.
Lao Ba, is he a virtuous person? Very virtuous!
Can he successfully become the prince? It’s absolutely impossible!
What is waiting for Lao Ba is the classic saying: Xin Zheku was born by a bitch!
Yuzhu led his troops and escorted the captured generals back to Beijing slowly.
Wei Zhu took the self-reports written by the generals and rode a fast horse to take the lead and entered the palace in advance.
Before closing the city gate, Yuzhu led a large team and entered Zhengyang Gate in time.
Inside Zhengyang Gate under the setting sun, on the left side of the city gate, stood a smiling Wei Zhu.
"The cabinet hereby sends an edict. On the jade pillar, I hold the title of minister of the Ministry of Rites and bachelor of the cabinet, and vice president for supervising the history of the Ming Dynasty. All my duties remain the same as before. I appreciate this." After Wei Zhu finished reciting the edict, he bent down and helped him to receive the edict.
Yuzhu said with a smile on his face, "Mr. Zhu, the emperor said that you should be rewarded for your job well done!"
The cabinet is full of bachelors, starting from the second grade, a total of six people. When the emperor participates in the imperial court, it is customary for the cabinet to be full of bachelors to submit a memorial.
According to the system, the cabinet bachelors of this dynasty all held the title of minister of the Ministry of Rites, and were appointed by the emperor to have one man each from the Manchu and Han Dynasties in charge of inspecting the affairs of the Zhongshu, or they were appointed to serve as presidents, chief editors and other officials of each library.
The officials who supervised the compilation of the history of the Ming Dynasty, from top to bottom, were: president, vice president, chief reader, chief compiler, etc.
Regardless of anything else, Yuzhu's vice president of Ming history instantly killed Ji Yun, the chief compiler of "Sikuquanshu".
Ji Yun couldn't even compare to Yuzhu, so why did he dare to compete with He Zhongtang in a battle of wits and courage?
In a feudal dynasty, officials who compile history are more than ten times more important than officials who compile books.
Originally, the person who supervised the editing of "History of the Ming Dynasty" was actually Lao Ba's disciple, Wang Hongxu.
When the prince was deposed, Wang Hongxu was in the wrong team and was dismissed by Kangxi and sent back to his hometown.
Now that Kangxi was old and busy preventing his sons from usurping the throne, where could he find the time to revise the history of the Ming Dynasty?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Therefore, the team that supervises the history of the Ming Dynasty exists in name only.
In this way, Yuzhu's so-called vice president of Mingshi is just an honorary position.
The number one scholar in Manchuria, as a cabinet scholar, supervises the compilation of national history. This is an extremely rare honor, enough to last for several lifetimes.
In a word, Kangxi was very satisfied. He not only promoted Yuzhu to an official position, but also gave him great honors.
Yuzhu naturally wanted to thank Wei Zhu for his deliberate show of kindness. He turned to look at Wu Jiang.
Wu Jiang understood the situation and walked up to Wei Zhu. Taking advantage of the opportunity to support his arm, Wu Jiang quietly stuffed a two thousand tael silver note into Wei Zhu's cuff.
Rules are rules!
Yuzhu's style of life and doing things has always been consistent. He is never respectful and arrogant, let alone burning bridges.
Liang Jiugong is already on the verge of collapse, and the successor as the general manager of Qianqing Palace must be Wei Zhu.
Objectively speaking, Wei Zhu, who served Kangxi every day, was indeed capable of ruining Yuzhu's affairs.
To put it bluntly, Wei Zhu belonged to the circle of eunuchs in the palace, and Yuzhu was a foreign minister, taking the route of a pure minister and a favored minister.
There is no fundamental conflict of interest between Wei Zhu and Yuzhu.
Instead of becoming enemies, it is better to maintain good relations and benefit from each other.
Besides, isn’t the rootless eunuch just looking for twisted dignity and affordable money?
These days, what big deal is a problem that can be solved with money?
Wei Zhu had no intention of becoming an enemy of Yuzhu. After seeing Yuzhu's promotion, not only did he not show any arrogance, but he respected him as always. How could he be dissatisfied?
"The Hongding Zige School, which has just reached the weak crown, even if it is a young man, is far inferior to you, Mr. Zhu." Even Wei Zhu, a celebrity next to the emperor, wanted to flatter Yuzhu in public. How is this? Remarkable?
As we all know, the young second-rank ministers that Kangxi placed in high regard must be jade pillars on the inside, and Nian Lianggong, the governor of Sichuan on the outside.
At this time, the two of them were already running neck and neck!
Unfortunately, Yuzhu is eleven years younger than Nian Lianggong.
Zhou Quan on the side couldn't help but smile slightly, and couldn't help but think of the famous saying: Duke Zhou fears the day of rumors.
However, the situation Yuzhu faced was much more dangerous than that of Wang Jujun at that time.
Therefore, Yuzhu deliberately killed two third-grade generals in public.
This approach of not seeking fame and only acting as a pure minister completely avoided the possibility that political opponents would lead to false accusations against Wang Jujun.
Looking at Yuzhu who was having a perfunctory exchange with Wei Zhu, Zhou Quan couldn't help but shake his folding fan twice, and deliberately suppressed his smile to avoid others seeing the flaw.
As long as the Qing Dynasty does not fall, the entire Zhou family's descendants will bear the bad reputation of being dismissed and will never be able to get ahead.
To put it bluntly, the hatred between Zhou Quan and the Qing court for killing his father is as deep as the sea. The hatred for blocking the road is also irreconcilable!
After sending all the captured Eight Banners generals to the prison of the infantry commander's office, Yuzhu and Zhou Quan rode back home together.
"Ge Xue, why don't you quickly review the generals?" Zhou Quan asked Yuzhu with ill intentions.
Outside, there were many people talking, so Zhou Quan gave up the taboo title of Lord and changed it to Ge Xue.
In the minds of scholars, the title of cabinet bachelor must be much more glorious than the title of infantry commander!
Yuzhu didn't look at Zhou Quan, but asked: "What do you think?"
Zhou Quan gently shook the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile: "Today, I only ordered the cabinet to arrest the person, but did not mention the interrogation at all. Naturally, it is inconvenient for the cabinet to overstep its authority."
Yuzhu still didn't look at Zhou Quan. This guy always had something to say, and he always wanted to fight with him.
The key to employing people is to be able to control them freely. Yuzhu didn't want to spoil Zhou Quan all the time, lest he cause a big disaster.
Until in front of Long Mansion, Yuzhu didn't say another word to Zhou Quan.
Zhou Quan was not afraid of being left out. After Yuzhu entered the hanging flower door, he naturally went to the outer study.
After Yuzhu had changed his clothes under Xiuyun's service and was talking about housework, Wu Jiang came to report.
"Back to my lord, Mr. Zhou was in high spirits. Not only did he order a table of top-notch dishes, but he also said he wanted to get drunk before resting."
After hearing Wu Jiang's reply, Yu Zhu felt confident that Zhou Quan had invited him over for a drink.
"Well, if he doesn't ask, you can just pretend to be confused. If he asks about my whereabouts, just say that I have eaten in the study room."
Yuzhu's inner study is now Qingwen's territory.
As long as Wu Jiang says this, with Zhou Quan's intelligence, he will definitely not be able to disturb Yu Zhu again.
