The huge airship slowly landed outside Funing County in the morning light. Governor Yang Feng on the ground deliberately put on a dazzling stand-up collar dress that looked like a European medieval aristocrat. He leaned on his
A titanium alloy cane inlaid with a hundred-carat diamond, arrogantly surrounded by dozens of bodyguards from various countries who were over 1.9 meters tall, looked at Guangxu being lifted out of the cockpit.
Poor His Majesty the Emperor, because he was leaving in a hurry, he only wore casual clothes, and there was blood stains on him. He was so tired from sitting on the airship all night that he couldn't straighten up, so his thin figure looked particularly miserable. If
If it weren't for the golden dragon embroidered on the casual clothes, people might mistakenly think that a little eunuch was randomly picked up from the palace. Standing in front of the tall, burly and elegant Yang Feng, he looked like a malnourished high school student.
Although it is impossible to have the slightest respect for His Majesty the Emperor, the necessary procedures still need to be completed. Just when Zhang Yinhuan, Kang Youwei and the others knelt down excitedly and shouted "Long Live the Mountain", Boss Yang also bowed slightly.
Said: "My minister, the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, the first-class loyal and brave man Yang Feng has met the emperor."
Upon hearing this name, Guangxu's eyes flashed coldly. He obviously thought of Concubine Zhen, Weng Tonghe and others who were killed by this guy. Although Zhirui had made it clear to him on the airship, it was the first time they met.
The raging anger in his heart was still unavoidable. It wasn't until Zhirui poked him in the back that Guangxu remembered that now was the time to rely on Yang Feng. He absolutely couldn't get angry, so he had to force himself to say cheerfully: "Thank you for your hard work, Yang Aiqing and all the ministers."
, please get back together quickly!"
Yang Feng didn't have to wait for him to say, he had already straightened up at this time, but Kang Youwei and his gang were still lying on the ground, just like kowtowing insects, they kept thanking the Lord for his kindness. They were just like dogs that met their master, their expressions were
They were all so happy that they cried bitterly. After realizing that this was the man who was jumping up and down and working hard to rescue him, Guangxu was moved and stepped forward to help him up personally. At this time, Governor Yang maliciously pointed at Chen Zhongshi who was not far away.
He winked and made a shooting motion with both hands in the air while no one was paying attention. Chen Zhong immediately understood.
At the moment when the monarch and his ministers showed their kindness, a gunshot was suddenly heard. Guangxu was so frightened that he threw himself into Zhirui's arms with a roar. Kang Youwei was also frightened and his head fell to the ground.
"Uh? What's going on?" Yang Fengyi shouted to Chen Zhong righteously.
"Lord Qi, there is a fire!" Chen Zhong investigated in a serious manner and then came over to report to Yang Feng.
"Ah, there was a fire. It's nothing serious. Don't panic. It's so cold. We don't want the emperor to freeze outside. The palace is ready. Your Majesty, please come to the palace!" Yang Feng stepped forward and said with a smile,
The palace he prepared for Guangxu was the Funing County Government Office. The county magistrate had long asked him to force him to leave. It was originally used as Chen Zhong's headquarters. Now that the emperor arrived, he would naturally make it available to him and hire a few maids.
Servants and housekeepers were just about enough. In order to meet the emperor's needs, we also found two top names from nearby brothels. They were probably for Guangxu's illness and were generally not needed, but this etiquette was indispensable.
After arriving at the palace, let the puppy eat and drink first. After all, he had been tossing all night, and he looked haggard. But at this time, Yang Feng's information came. When he looked at the content above, he
I couldn't help but rub my head. Cixi is such an old woman, it's hard to deal with her. I didn't expect her to react so quickly. No wonder she has remained in the political arena for half a century!
This guy didn't care that Guangxu, who had been hungry all night, was eating. He walked over with this telegram and said, "Your Majesty, this, I just got some bad news. The Queen Mother announced that you will be dethroned from the throne and will make Pu Wei the throne."
Emperor, we have officially informed the world via telegram."
Guangxu was stunned and dropped the chopsticks in his hand to the ground.
"That's ridiculous. That witch is too crazy. How can she depose the position of the Holy Emperor at her own whim?" Kang Youwei said immediately and righteously.
"I don't understand this aspect very well. You are all well-educated people. It is best to come up with an explanation that is beneficial to us as soon as possible, and then we can send electricity to the outside world in the name of our profession. I think you are the best at these things, so you should
Isn't it impossible to solve it?" Yang Feng said, these guys are not the best at this. If they can't even argue with Cixi, they can just find a place to kill them. You know, Kang Youwei was accompanied by hundreds of people who studied poetry and books.
A great scholar of ten years.
After leaving the task of debating with Cixi to these people, Governor Yang stopped taking care of it. Now he still had a serious problem to solve. While announcing the establishment of a new monarch, Cixi also issued an order to the Beiyang Navy,
He asked them to go to sea and go north to Qinhuangdao to put pressure on him. After getting the news, Liu Buchan, as his deputy commander of the fleet, had led the entire fleet to sea to intercept. By the afternoon, Yang Feng had received his telegram. The two sides had already encountered each other at sea and were currently fighting.
During the confrontation, ask him for instructions on how to handle it.
"Oh, this is really a headache. Do we have to sink the Beiyang Navy?" Yang Feng was really confused by this question. He was not afraid of beating him at all. He currently has three armored cruisers and eight destroyers in Qinhuangdao.
There are a total of six battleships in the Beiyang Navy, and the range and speed of their main guns are far behind him, not to mention the sighting equipment. Plus, with the eight destroyers, it can be said that it is easy to win, but the problem is that always
It feels a bit awkward. After all, this is the Beiyang Navy. If it was not destroyed by the Japanese, it cannot be destroyed by our own hands, right?
"Who are the current captains of the ships of the Beiyang Navy?" He asked Long Weili. This guy's contract was about to expire. Although Yang Feng wanted to sign for another two years, the British Navy did not agree. After all, they also had a shortage of ships.
Such a general with rich experience in actual combat has now been assigned to Liu Buchan to take charge of such sea combat missions.
"Admiral Tie Liang of the Beiyang Navy, deputy admiral and commander of the Dingyuan, Sa Zhenbing, commander of the Zhenyuan, He Pinzhang, commander of the Laiyuan, Xie Baozhang, commander of the Pingyuan, Huang Mingqiu, and commander of the Kaiyuan, Chilean Salas.
The Zhuyuan will take Cook with him," said Longwillie.
"Aren't they all from Fujian?" Yang Feng said with a funny face. Fujian was his territory, and Cixi sent a group of Fujian generals to fight him.
"Yang, if we don't use the Fujianese, the number of officers in the Beiyang Navy will be reduced by two-thirds, and they won't even be able to sail ships." Longweili said with a shrug.
"Inform Liu Buchan and ask him to quickly persuade his fellow villagers. Just as I, Yang Feng, said, detain all the supervisors sent by the court on the ship, and then sail the fleet to Fuzhou. They will not have to worry about things here in the future.
Well, as for the two Chilean-piloted ships, let them fight if they like!" Yang Feng said.
In fact, Liu Buchan, who led the fleet to confront the Beiyang Navy, had already done so without waiting for his order, and clearly told them that Governor Yang was helping the emperor this time. There was no need for the navy to intervene in such an internal struggle within the court.
Now they are sailing all the ships to Fuzhou. If the emperor wins, it will be a credit to them. If the emperor loses, it will be a big deal and Yang Feng will support them in the future.
As soon as they said this, Sa Zhenbing and the others were stunned. Dingzhen Laipingsiyuan, who was setting up a formation on the sea, all turned around and returned. Tie Liang, who was on the Kaiyuan, was so angry that he looked at these guys and yelled.
, It's a pity that scolding is useless. Sa Zhenbing and the others are not stupid. If a foreign enemy invades, we will fight hard. It's useless for us to get involved in the fight between the two of them. What's more, this battle will definitely be defeated.
The four ships that had made great achievements in the Japanese war were sunk by our own compatriots. They could not hope to raise their heads in that life, not to mention that Yang Feng had left enough escape routes for them.
The four warships returned directly to Liugong Island, where they picked up their families and sailed south to Fujian. Although the furious Tieliang sent a telegram asking the defenders at Weihai Base to detain them, everyone understood at this time that the emperor
The outcome of the subsequent battle is unpredictable, and Guangxu has a great chance of winning if he doesn't succeed. No one can take risks in this situation. Besides, it is an old friendship for decades, and it is nothing to detain someone's family, so
It is said that the defenders of Weihaiwei simply turned a blind eye.
After Sa Zhenbing and others left, only Kaiyuan and Zhuyuan were left on the sea, as well as a few small gunboats and torpedo boats. However, although these guys didn't leave, they hid far away. I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to fight even if they really fought.
Those who were ready to watch the excitement on the side were the only two cruisers Kaiyuan and Zhuyuan who were actually confronting Liu Buchan. Looking ahead, they waved flags to surrender and at the same time, a dozen warships surrounded them from three sides with ill intentions.
Liang and Salas were also dumbfounded at this time.
"Admiral, they have issued an ultimatum. If we don't surrender, they will open fire." Salas said to Tieliang with a solemn face. He was not worried about any danger to himself. After so many days of fighting,
After getting along with each other, he already knew the commander beside him very well. Master Tie would not make irrational choices.
Tie Liang swallowed hard. It was really difficult to make a choice at this time. If he didn't surrender, he would be dead. If he surrendered, he would feel sorry for Ronglu and the Queen Mother. Sometimes he still has a little bit of a hero in his heart.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to bravely defend Nanjing City in the year of 1911 in history. But in the current situation, if he died in the battle, what would the outcome be? If not, he might become a traitor or rebel against the party. Since
Why do you have to lose your life?
"Ask them, can we not come out after we withdraw to Liugong Island?" He said to Salas with a glimmer of extravagant hope.
His request was quickly answered: "No, either surrender or sink."
"Okay, let's surrender." Tie Liang said helplessly with a sad face.
