"Lafayette, this is really a great victory. We wiped out more enemies than the Langfang victory." Zaiyi said with excitement on his face.
After hearing that more enemies were wiped out than in the Langfang victory, Cixi immediately became interested and lazily said: "Come on, Zaiyi, please stop being so pretentious and submit the report!"
After Zaiyi submitted the report, Cixi was about to open it but then changed her mind, handed it to Li Lianying next to her and said: "Little plum, please read it to everyone."
Li Lianying took the memorial and read it in his unique sharp voice: "I, General of Heilongjiang, respectfully wish the Holy Mother Queen Mother's peace, and your Majesty the Queen Mother's peace. Recently, Tsarist Russia sent an army of 180,000 troops to invade our country in six directions. I have the responsibility of defending the homeland.
Don't dare to slack off at all. Heilongjiang's military strength is weak, and the three provinces cannot cooperate in fighting. The Russian troops on the west and north routes are weak.
Several times more than ours. I decided to die to serve the country. After receiving the battle report yesterday, Fengxiang, the deputy commander of Aihui City, with the cooperation of a large number of foreigners and brave civilians, completely annihilated the Russian North Route Army, annihilating a total of 27,648 indigenous people.
, 320,000 foreign troops, killed the military and political chief of Russia's Amur Province, Gribsky, and two Russian major generals, but captured them to no avail."
Cixi, who was originally lazy, suddenly sat up straight and said somewhat eagerly: "Little Lizi, how many people did you just say you killed?"
Li Lianying said with a smile on her face: "Going back to Lafayette, the battle report states that Deputy Commander Fengxiang completely wiped out the Russian North Army, with a total of 27,648 aboriginal troops and 320,000 aliens. Lafayette, this is a huge victory.
!”
Empress Dowager Cixi's face suddenly turned red and she said: "What a Shoushan, what a Fengxiang, little Lizi, continue to read to the Ai family. The Ai family wants to hear the whole battle process."
After Cixi finished speaking, she said to the ministers: "Please listen carefully to the Ai family. Learn how others win wars. Don't just rely on the Boxers or talk about peace talks all day long."
"Deputy Commander Fengxiang only has 7,346 soldiers in Aihui City, including 240,000 foreign soldiers. The Russian Northern Route Army has more than 28,000 soldiers and 320,000 foreign troops. We are at a disadvantage in terms of military strength. On July 14, we patrolled Aihui.
Chen Baxian, aware of the Russian ambitions in advance, spent all his money to recruit more than 9,200 brave men to go to Aihun before taking office. After the Russian provocation on the 15th, Chen Baxian led his army to cross Heilongjiang at night and defeated the Russians in Esuli, Murususu and other cities.
…”
Empress Dowager Cixi interrupted Li Lianying again and said: "Little Lizi, it seems that you have heard of Chen Baxian Aijia somewhere. Do you have any impressions of it?"
Li Lianying smiled and said: "Lafayette, have you forgotten? During the Langfang victory a few days ago, the alien Chen Baxian led his troops to cut off the retreat of the foreigners, giving the Boxers a chance to annihilate the foreigners. I remember that Chen Baxian also killed the coalition commander Seymour. I read
Read the time."
Cixi suddenly realized: "It turned out to be that little brat. The Aijia remembered it. The Aijia remembered that Chen Baxian was less than 17 years old. At that time, he praised a hero for being born in a young man. He was given the title of seventh-grade official and gave him the city of Aihui.
I was entrusted with the duties of Qianhu, but I didn't expect him to make such a great contribution."
Li Lianying took the opportunity to flatter him and said, "It was only because of Lafayette's discerning eye that we achieved today's great victory."
The Empress Dowager Cixi sneered and said: "What is the wisdom of the eye? If you really have the wisdom of the eye, then all the civil and military officials in the dynasty are just idlers, and no one can share the worries of the Ai family. Little Lizi, please continue reading and tell the Ai family about Mr. Chen Ba
.”
"Chen Baxian led his army all the way north to conquer Belogorsk, the Russian railway hub. He recruited warriors Wu Peifu and Yang Du to design a complete annihilation of the Belogorsk defenders. After a short rest in Belogorsk, Chen Baxian
The army marched eastward, defeated two more Russian cities, and cooperated with Fengxiang Dutong to conquer Hailanpao..."
Shoushan and Fengxiang are both real people, and the battle report is not embellished at all. The merits of Chen Hao, Wu Peifu and Yang Du are described in the battle report. Cixi has been hearing the news of defeat recently, and it is rare for her to hear about a big victory. Li Lianying reads
After finishing the battle report, she sighed: "When I was young, I never forgot to share the country's worries. Chen Baxian is truly a loyal minister! He went deep into the empire and wiped out hundreds of thousands of enemies. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were no more than that."
After Cixi finished speaking, she glanced at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and said calmly: "Dear ministers, what do you think of the hundreds of thousands of enemies annihilated in the Northeast? Tell us!"
"Congratulations to Lafayette! Lafayette has brought great blessings to the sky. The soldiers of the three armies will definitely defeat the foreigners with their lives."
"Hongfu will come to heaven?" Empress Dowager Cixi sneered and said: "The Ai family really hopes that the Ai family will have great prosperity, but those foreign devils will not let the Ai family stop! Chen Baxian, a mere eighth-rank official, can worry about the separation of the country, which is a great relief to the Ai family! Sun Aiqing, Chen Baxian established
Please tell me how I should be rewarded for such great achievements!"
Sun Jianai, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, pondered for a moment and went out to report: "To the Queen Mother, Chen Baxian has been appointed to the eighth rank of Zheng. He has made such a great contribution and should be promoted to the right. He can be moved to the right to be the seventh rank of Zhengzong Commander in Aihui City. The righteous Wu Peifu can be awarded the eighth rank of Foreign Affairs Commission.
Qianhu, Yang Du conferred the Eighth Grade Ceremony"
Cixi sneered and said: "After spending all the money to serve the country, a loyal minister who annihilated hundreds of thousands of enemies can only be appointed as a seventh-rank general? There are countless first- and second-rank officials in the Manchu Dynasty. Who can kill hundreds of thousands of enemies like Chen Baxian and relieve the country's worries?"
Sun Jianai observed the words and knew that the Empress Dowager Cixi admired the stranger Chen Baxian, so he proposed to make an exception and let Chen Baxian be promoted to two levels in a row. He didn't want the Empress Dowager Cixi to be dissatisfied. So he said in a deep voice: "Empress Dowager, Chen Baxian is still young, and besides, he is only outside the eighth grade.
A thousand households are appointed to be promoted to the rank of seventh-rank general, which means they have been promoted two levels in a row. If..."
Cixi interrupted Sun Jianai and said: "Aspirations lie in age. All the ministers in the Manchu Dynasty are older than Chen Baxian. Who has his ability? There is only one Nie Shicheng in Zhili who can fight but he is slandered by you. Now in Zhili
We have been losing consecutive battles, so it is better to replace them with someone who is capable. Then Chen Baxian served under Nie Shicheng, so let him take over Nie Shicheng's position and become the governor of Zhili! We can rest assured that he will come to Northern Hebei to take charge of the Aijia."
"There are also two aborigines who are assisting Chen Baxian. Wu Peifu will be conferred the rank of fourth-grade deputy knight commander, and Yang Du will be conferred the rank of fourth-grade ceremonial officer."
"No, Queen Mother. The promotion from the eighth-grade military position to the first-grade official is inconsistent with the court regulations. Besides, Chen Ba is only seventeen years old. A seventeen-year-old first-grade official is unheard of..."
"Sun Aiqing is a scholar, could it be that he has forgotten all the books?" Empress Dowager Cixi once again interrupted Sun Jianai and said: "Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of twelve, and Chen Baxian was not able to become the admiral of Zhili at the age of seventeen?"
Sun Jianai was covered in cold sweat. He said the wrong thing in a fit of impatience and was taken advantage of by Cixi. He didn't know how to answer for a moment. He knew why the Empress Dowager Cixi wanted to appoint that little boy as the governor of Zhili. Recently, Zhili had suffered a series of defeats, and the Empress Dowager Cixi was worried.
At this moment, a stranger appeared in the northeast who could win great battles. Cixi regarded this little boy as a life-saving straw.
It was just a joke to let a seventeen-year-old boy serve as the governor of Zhili. Sun Jia Nai thought it was ridiculous and didn't know how to refute it.
The great victory in the Northeast made Zaiyi feel relieved, but it did not mean that he was willing to appoint Cixi to such a high official position. Since a seventeen-year-old boy could also win a great victory in the Northeast, Zaiyi felt that there were still many boxers in northern Hebei.
Maybe there was still hope of defeating the foreigners, which would be a great achievement for him who firmly supported Cixi in using the Boxer Rebellion to deal with the foreigners.
Zaiyi also understood Cixi's thoughts. Seeing Sun Jianai sweating coldly, he said: "To the Queen Mother, Chen Baxian's great achievements in the Northeast are mostly due to luck. The ancients said that oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in Huaibei are oranges.
"Zhi, I am afraid that Chen Baxian's sudden promotion to the position of governor of Zhili will not be able to convince the public, and besides, he is not familiar with northern Hebei, so I am afraid that he will not be qualified for the job."
Cixi was suddenly told by Zai Yi that Northern Hebei had been defeated recently. When she heard that Chen Baxian was capable, she wanted to transfer him to Northern Hebei as a life-saving straw. After listening to Zaiyi's words, she also felt that it was too risky. If Chen Baxian was like Zhao
Kuo is also useless, and it would be dangerous to defeat the capital in northern Hebei.
Cixi gave up her unrealistic thoughts and said calmly, "How do you think Zaiyi should be rewarded?"
Zaiyi said confidently: "Weichen thinks it is certain that Chen Ba will move to the right first, but he should consult Shoushan and Fengxiang for advice on what position he should take. These two people are his superiors and should know more about him."
At this moment, the palace guard came into the palace and said: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, please hurry up eight hundred miles northeast."
"Send it up."
This was Shoushan's second report after meeting Chen Hao. After reading the report, Cixi sighed again: "Chen Baxian is really a loyal and good man of the country! Chen Baxian took the initiative to ask Ying to go south to Fengtian to deal with the Russian Southern Route Army. What do you all think?"
Zaiyi said quickly: "That's great! Chen Baxian is good at winning battles, so it's just right to deploy him in southern Liaoning to deal with the Russians attacking from Luda. If he really has the ability to win another big victory, it will be just right for the Queen Mother to send him to command troops in Guan Qinwang."
Cixi nodded in agreement with Zaiyi's statement, and then said to Sun Jianai: "Sun Aiqing, Shoushan and Fengxiang recommended Chen Baxian to be the co-president of the Yingkou Coastal Defense Department. What do you think?"
The co-president of the Yingkou Coastal Defense Office is an official of the sixth rank, and the eighth-rank foreign affairs commission is promoted to the sixth rank of co-president. This is already a four-level promotion. If the Empress Dowager Cixi had asked before, Sun Jianai would definitely object, but compared with being promoted from the first-rank Zhili admiral
After getting up, it was nothing to have the same knowledge as the sixth grade, so Sun Jianai said: "I have no objection."
Empress Dowager Cixi rushed to Li Lianying who was standing next to her and said, "Little Lizi, come up with a decree for the Ai family! Shoushan has made great contributions to resisting the enemy, so he will be given the title of Prince Shaobao, and is bestowed with a yellow mandarin jacket. Commander Fengxiang has made great contributions, and is bestowed with a yellow mandarin jacket, and is granted the title of Uncle Loyalty and Righteousness."
"Chen Baxian, the Foreign Affairs Committee of Aihui City, a thousand households, was awarded a yellow mantle for his meritorious service in resisting the enemy. From now on, the Yingkou Coastal Defense Tongzhi Office will be changed to the Yingkou Zhili Hall, and Chen Baxian will be moved to the right and become the fifth-rank Tongzhi of Yingkou Zhili Hall, under the jurisdiction of six battalions.
. Grant Wu Peifu, a volunteer, the sixth rank of the Zhili Hall of Yingkou, Qianzong, and grant Yang Du, a volunteer of the sixth rank, the deputy envoy of the Zhili Hall of Yingkou. Other volunteers who participated in the war, who are strangers, will be rewarded by Fengxiang and Chen Baxian on their own."
It was hard for Sun Jia Nai to accept Cixi's promotion of Chen Baxian to four ranks in a row to become the sixth-rank fellow magistrate. Unexpectedly, Cixi used a trick to directly turn Yingkou into the Zhili Hall, and Chen Baxian suddenly became the fifth-rank fellow magistrate.
Lafayette had already opened his mouth, and Sun Jianai lost his temper if he continued to refute, so he had to acquiesce in Cixi's reward. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
