Four hundred and ninetieth eight chapters revocation of official positions
The Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Cen Chunxuan, was stunned after receiving the official document from the Navy Yamen. He repeatedly urged the Admiral Yamen to send troops, but Chen Baxian always found various excuses to shirk it. Cen Chunxuan had already given up. Fortunately, the imperial court sent a large army to Guangzhou to suppress the attack.
Chen Baxian was unwilling to let the navy participate in the war, so the city of Guangzhou was saved.
Chen Baxian was too despicable. He was unwilling to send troops in a critical moment. When the reinforcements were about to arrive, he wanted to take the credit. After reading the official document, Cen Chunxuan sent a letter to the Navy Yamen, asking when the Navy Yamen would send troops, and got the answer
Troops are constantly changing, and troops will be sent to attack the rebels when the time is right.
Cen Chunxuan sneered after receiving the reply. Chen Baxian was unwilling to give a specific time. He must have wanted to take the credit when the reinforcements from Guangxi arrived. Lord Cen was very contemptuous of his behavior and planned to send troops out of the city to attack from both sides when the reinforcements arrived. However,
This gave Chen Baxian too many opportunities to attack.
"My lord, how long will it take for the troops from Guangxi to arrive?" Cen Chunxuan asked his staff.
The staff quickly said: "According to the latest intelligence, it will take two days for the troops to arrive in Guangzhou City. Are you ready to wait for the Guangxi troops to arrive, or do you want to wait for the troops from other provinces to arrive before jointly encircling the bandits?"
Cen Chunxuan shook his head and said: "There is no need to wait for the troops from Fujian and Zhejiang. Chen Ba first promised to send the naval battalion to participate in the battle. We will attack when the Guangxi troops arrive."
In the admiral's office, Chen Hao was working at his desk and writing a good news report to the imperial court. The good news clearly stated that he led the navy to land unexpectedly and launched a fierce attack on the bandits who were besieging Guangzhou City. The bandits were caught off guard and fell into chaos.
Mr. Chen personally led the troops in pursuit and killed 36,800 foreign bandits and captured 13,400 aboriginal bandits.
This victory report is obviously fake, because Chen Hao did not direct this battle at all, but it doesn't matter. The battle will be won soon after the victory report is reported. The ancients said that the temple calculates the victory before it loses, and Mr. Chen has already calculated the victory before the battle is fought.
When the time comes, he will win, and he can also write out the results of the battle in advance, which can be regarded as a genius through the ages.
After arranging for someone to deliver the victory news to Beijing, Chen Hao led 6,000 officers and soldiers of the naval battalion to land at the rear of the rebel army, and then fired violently into the air. The rebel army had already received orders from Xu Xueqiu and He Ziyuan. They did not put up any resistance, but quietly
Watching the Marine Battalion's performance. After the Marine Battalion launched an attack, the player's troops were ordered to retreat and not resist. Many players were confused and couldn't figure out which part of the song was being sung.
Wang Laochuan was also stunned. He had considered many situations and felt that even if reinforcements from the imperial court arrived, he should be able to recruit some NPCs by fishing in troubled waters. But now that the navy battalion suddenly launched an attack, Xu Xueqiu and He Ziyuan were not allowed to resist, as he imagined
The scene in was very different. All his preparations were in vain.
Wang Laochuan's mind was spinning very fast, and he quickly understood what was going on in the scene before him. This was the Navy Battalion acting out with the NPC rebels! The admiral of the Navy Battalion was Chen Baxian, and he must have discussed it with the two commanders.
, pretend to attack the rebel troops and capture the rebels, and then find a way to save all the rebel troops.
What Chen Baxian did was so clever. Not only did he have a suitable excuse to control all the Revolutionary Party NPCs, but he also made the Revolutionary Party owe him a favor. As for the court, he wiped out tens of thousands of bandits. He made great achievements, said
Maybe he will be rewarded by the court. He really has exhausted all the agencies.
Chen Hao suddenly asked many players to make a futile effort. They couldn't get a single NPC, but even if they understood the problem, there was nothing they could do. Xu Xueqiu had ordered not to resist. If they resisted, they would have violated the military order and would be in trouble.
He is hated by the Revolutionary Party NPC and will also offend Chen Baxian.
The "battle" lasted for two hours. Soon after gunshots were heard outside the city, soldiers reported to Cen Chunxuan, and the governor appeared on the city wall confused. Because it was dark, he did not dare to send troops because he was worried that the enemy would deceive him.
When leaving the city, we could only send out scouts to investigate. However, the fighting outside was extremely fierce, and the scouts sent out might have been ambushed. None of them came back, which made the governor even more afraid to act rashly.
Chen Hao had already sent an elite force to ambush near the city gate. As long as a small number of soldiers came out of the city, they would intercept and kill him. If Cen Chunxuan personally led the troops to support him, the navy battalion officers would also find reasons to persuade him to go back. The whole scene
After the "battle" ended, all the aliens disappeared, and all the more than 10,000 NPC rebels were captured.
This achievement is a bit strange, but no one will find fault with it, because players can be resurrected after death, and the body will disappear soon. If the victory report says that the NPC was killed, Chen Hao will have to take the head as a reward.
If the player is killed, then there is no such concern.
After the gunfire subsided, Chen Hao led the naval battalion to the foot of Guangzhou City and said loudly: "Is that the Governor on the wall?"
Cen Chunxuan ordered the torches to be lit. After he recognized Chen Hao, he asked curiously: "Why did Mr. Chen appear here?"
Chen Hao laughed loudly and said: "I sent scouts to investigate and learned that the bandits were lax in their defenses today, so I led the naval battalion to launch a surprise attack from behind. Thanks to the Queen Mother and Your Majesty Hong Fu, all the bandits were wiped out and 13,000 bandits were captured.
Fourteen hundred people. I am here to say hello to the Governor, the siege of Guangdong has been lifted, and you can rest easy."
Cen Chunxuan was greatly surprised and said: "All the bandits were caught in one sweep?"
Chen Hao smiled slightly and said: "If you don't believe me, Lord Governor, you can send someone out to have a look. I don't have enough troops under my command, so I have to arrange for people to escort the prisoners back. I won't stay here for a long time. Goodbye!"
Cen Chunxuan was so angry that he was itching his teeth. Chen Baxian kept claiming that he was a lower-ranking official. How could he look like a lower-ranking official? He ran to the city gate and told himself that he had defeated the bandits. He must be showing off, but Chen Baxian could still fight.
It really wasn't built up, and it was possible to disperse tens of thousands of bandits with just a few thousand people.
This result was a bit unbelievable, but Cen Chunxuan did not doubt it too much. After all, Chen Hao had won several great battles in the Northeast. He fought consecutive big battles and won more with less, and his reputation for being able to fight had spread in the court.
, otherwise he would not dare to report such an exaggerated victory.
Cen Chunxuan had tens of thousands of people under his command, but they could only retreat, and they also needed reinforcements from other provinces. Chen Baxian destroyed the bandits with only a few thousand patrol battalions. The governor was greatly embarrassed. He regretted not decisively sending troops out of the city to cooperate with the battle. Now that things have happened
He had no other choice, so he had to write a victory report based on what Chen Hao said about the victory. However, his victory report stated that the bandits were annihilated only through the cooperation between inside and outside the city.
The Empress Dowager Cixi first received the report from Chen Hao. Because Chen Hao had rushed the victory report to Beijing eight hundred miles before the war, Cen Chunxuan was a little late. After reading Chen Hao's report, the Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile on her face: "
Xiao Lizi, it seems that Chen Baxian was right to appoint an admiral of the Guangdong Navy. Cen Chunxuan had a good way of governing the place, but he was always a little worse in fighting. Tens of thousands of his men were forced to defend the city by the bandits, and Chen Baxian only relied on the six naval battalions.
He wiped out all the bandits with a thousand men, he is worthy of being a capable fighter."
Li Lianying smiled apologetically and said, "It's all thanks to Lafayette's sharp eyes that we can achieve today's great victory. I congratulate Lafayette and congratulate Lafayette."
While the two were chatting, Cen Chunxuan's report was also delivered. After reading the two reports, which were almost the same, Cixi smiled and said: "Chen Ba first said that he led the navy battalion alone to wipe out the bandits, but Cen Chunxuan said that he won because of the cooperation between inside and outside. This time
Cen Chunxuan has nothing to do with the big victory. As the governor, he can't show off his face, so it's normal for him to want to share some of the credit."
Although Li Lianying also accepted Chen Hao's filial piety, he had a better relationship with Cen Chunxuan, so he defended Cen Chunxuan: "Old Buddha, I think Master Chen is a capable person, but he is always younger. I ignore him because he thinks he has great military achievements.
It is also possible to break Lord Cen's restraint in the city."
Empress Dowager Cixi said calmly: "Chen Baxian is young, but he has earned many genuine military achievements. He does not seem to be someone who would take credit. He said in the book that although those revolutionary parties deserve to be punished, it would be too cheap to kill them like this.
I’m going to be sent to a remote place in Southeast Asia, what do you think?”
Li Lianying had just helped Cen Chunxuan, and now he felt that it was time to repay Chen Hao's bribe, so he smiled and said: "Master Chen has thought very carefully. He built a shipyard in Nanyang, which just needs labor. These revolutionary gangsters
After arriving in Nanyang, as long as he keeps strict supervision, there should be no trouble."
The Empress Dowager Cixi nodded and said: "Then it's settled! Regardless of whether Cen Chunxuan has any merit this time, Chen Baxian's contribution is still the greatest. How should the Ai family reward him? Cen Chunxuan is not good at fighting, and Guangdong and Guangxi are places prone to bandits.
How about I remove Cen Chunxuan and let Chen Baxian serve as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi?"
Li Lianying was horrified and said: "Queen Mother, Mr. Cen has also made great achievements in protecting the territory. Isn't it inappropriate to remove him from his official position in order to reward Mr. Chen Baxian?"
Empress Dowager Cixi opened the Buddhist scripture in front of her, handed a photo to Li Lianying and said: "Cen Chunxuan's wings have become stiff. If he doesn't change his position, I won't feel at ease in the Forbidden City. This matter is settled. But Chen Baxian has always been too
He is too young. If he is appointed as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, many people will oppose it. Let’s see what happens then!”
What the Empress Dowager Cixi handed to Li Lianying was the PS photo. Li Lianying was also shocked when he saw Cen Chunxuan and Liang Qichao taking pictures together. He did not realize that there was something wrong with the photo for a moment, but he did not dare to persuade the Empress Dowager Cixi to give up the idea and kept it.
I took the photos and thought about it.
During the court meeting the next day, Empress Dowager Cixi dismissed Cen Chunxuan from his post as governor of Guangdong and Guangxi on the pretext that his inability to suppress Cen Chunxuan had led to riots in Guangdong and Guangxi. Only Li Lianying knew that Empress Dowager Cixi dismissed Cen Chunxuan not because of national events, but because of a PS photo.
