"We don't know exactly who the rebels are and what their purpose is. How can we rush to deploy troops to suppress them?"
When the governor heard about Agui's decisiveness during the rebellion, he did not agree with Jia Jia'e's suggestion of immediately putting an end to the rebellion, and ordered people to convene an urgent civil and military meeting that arrived.
At the military meeting, Prince Consort Jia Jia once again proposed sending troops to quell the rebellion immediately. Unexpectedly, very few officials supported quelling the rebellion immediately.
Counselor Te Cheng'e said: "It is not yet certain that the rebels have taken control of the camp, or even whether the general has been killed. It is inappropriate to rashly deploy troops to suppress it."
Te Cheng was worried that sending troops to quell the rebellion before the situation was clear might lead to the rebels killing General Dingxi.
Another leading minister, Xing Zhao, also believed that the top priority was to thoroughly investigate the changes in the camp and find out what happened.
"My lords, we still haven't figured out what happened, so it seems inappropriate to rashly say they are rebels, right?"
The person who said this was Li Fengyao, the second-class imperial guard. He did not believe that the Eight Banners disciples would rebel, so it was necessary to investigate the true cause of the chaos in the camp.
"Is it the rebellion of our Eight Banners disciples, or is it the camp attacked by bandits?" Shu Jing'an, deputy commander of the Eight Banners garrison in Chengdu, was restless and looked anxious.
The reason was not that there was another big trouble in Daying, but that his precious son and a dozen Eight Banners disciples had been missing for a long time and could not be found no matter how hard they looked for them.
Some people say that Mr. Shu and others were kidnapped.
If it was a kidnapping, the kidnappers should have sent someone to ask for ransom, but no one has ever left any message to the Deputy Governor's Yamen.
Because it took so long, many Eight Banners officials in Chengdu believed that Mr. Shu was probably killed.
As an Ama, Shu Jing'an insisted that his son was still alive. For this reason, he not only dispatched Eight Banners troops stationed in Chengdu to search, but also asked Sichuan Governor Li Shijie to help ask all prefectures and counties to investigate the case.
The Sichuan governor attached great importance to the case and personally dispatched manpower to search for it. He went to the Inspector's Office three times to conduct a thorough investigation as required, and at the same time strictly ordered the Chengdu Prefecture to solve the case within a time limit.
It's just that from the incident to the present, thousands of people have been dispatched, but there is still no news, just like Mr. Shu and others disappeared from the world out of thin air.
This case has also caused a great sensation in Chengdu. The latest news is that the governor suspects that Mr. Shu and others may have been kidnapped by bandits pretending to be officers and soldiers.
The clue was provided by two children. That day they saw a group of officers and soldiers taking Mr. Shu and others away.
That is to say, from that day on, Mr. Shu and his entourage disappeared from the world.
Why did the thieves kidnap Mr. Shu?
The governor's guess is that the thieves may be trying to blackmail Deputy Governor Shu, but there is no way to know what they are threatening.
As it involved traitors, Shu Jing'an, the deputy governor, was unable to come forward, so he had to ask the governor of Sichuan to send someone to communicate with them. If his precious son was really in the hands of the other party, he would be willing to support it no matter how much the ransom was, even if it cost him everything.
Can.
How could the Sichuan governor dare to secretly contact the thieves? Out of sympathy, he asked the Sichuan Admiral Jia Jiashikai about the matter.
After all, there are several green battalion soldiers under the Admiral who are surrounding Jinchuan and Jinchuan. It is much safer for the Sichuan green battalion to come forward to negotiate with the thieves.
Under the "guidance" of the governor, Vice Admiral Shu Dutong, who loved his son eagerly, sent someone to send 5,000 taels to Admiral Jia.
Admiral Jia collected the money to handle the matter and told Deputy Governor Shu that he had already sent someone to talk to them, saying that they would have the letter within the next two days. Who would have thought that before the letter came, something would happen to the camp again.
What a bad time.
Just now, he nodded to his consort, Admiral Jia, but as to whether to put an end to the chaos immediately, Shu Jing'an was leaning towards the Governor's wishes.
It’s better to figure things out first before making a decision.
So good, how could the Eight Banners rebel?
Seeing that no one supported his son-in-law, Vice Chairman Bo spoke up and gave a compromise suggestion, which was to immediately send troops to surround the camp and completely block all surrounding roads and entrances and exits. No one was allowed to enter or exit, and violators would be shot.
"No matter what the cause of the chaos is, and what causes the chaos, the top priority is to control the chaos to the minimum scope, and other troops must not be affected."
There is another meaning in Vice President Bo's words. If the Eight Banners disciples really rebel and cause chaos, then they must prevent the Eight Banners disciples in other troops from being affected as well.
If the Eight Banners had not rebelled, this arrangement would have ensured that the collapse of the camp would not cause the entire encirclement to collapse again.
After all, another command team headed by Governor Fu has now been formed.
The left deputy general Feng Sheng'e was also a leadership center.
The lesson of Muguomu's defeat was so profound that it was still fresh in everyone's memory.
The Governor-General accepted this suggestion and ordered Guizhou Admiral Wang Jintai to immediately seal off the camp.
At the same time, someone was sent to inform the left deputy general Feng Sheng'e of the news and asked him to come to Guo Mingzong's mouth immediately to discuss the matter together.
Then he sent the second-class imperial guard Hunitu to the camp to see what happened.
Jia Jia, the son-in-law who had received no support for his suggestion of sending troops to quell the chaos, came out for air, but was dragged aside by his father-in-law who excused himself to come out to pee.
"What does the old guy mean? The last time I fucked Agui, he was faster than a rabbit!"
Jia Liu was a little puzzled. He thought that Fulehun would definitely cut off the trouble with a quick knife, but he would suppress it first.
"That time, Agui, the old guy couldn't afford to get up early. This time, he is just as confused as Agui."
Vice President Bo analyzed Fulehun's psychology and found that the sudden chaos in the camp was not expected at all, and he had no idea what was going on. Even though Fulehun was a cunning and cunning person, it was inevitable that he would be a little panicked at this time. First of all,
What I want to do is figure out what's going on, not calm the situation down.
While Weng and his son-in-law were talking, they did not expect that Shulin, the leader of the team who was originally thought to have died in the camp, was released back.
In addition to bringing back the news that General Mingliang was not killed, Shulin also brought the rebels' request that they stop all peace talks with the rebels and that a hundred thousand troops fight the rebels to the bitter end.
"They said that if the imperial court continues to negotiate peace with the bandits, they will kill the general."
This statement caused an uproar in the camp. Everyone did not expect that it was actually the disciples of the Eight Banners who rebelled and attacked the camp.
Fullerhun frowned, suddenly slapped the table and said angrily: "Agui Yu should die!"
A Guiyu party?
After everyone was surprised, they immediately figured out that, indeed, it was not Agui's remnants who caused trouble, so how could the Eight Banners disciples attack the camp and kidnap General Dingxi.
"Your Majesty the Governor,"
Shulin hesitated for a moment, then looked at Jia Jia's consort-in-law beside him, "As far as I know, it was not the members of Agui's party who caused the rebellion, but the restrained guerrilla flag members of my consort-in-law."
"What? My people!"
Jia Jia's consort looked shocked and couldn't believe it.
Everyone was also in disbelief and looked at Jia Jia, the bewildered prince-in-law, with great surprise.
The Governor was also stunned, and then waved to everyone with a livid face: "You all go out, and the prince-in-law stays!"
Everyone hurriedly stood up and exited the big tent, even Vice President Bo followed suit.
After everyone had retreated, Fulehun suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Jia Jia, the bewildered consort, by the collar. Just as he was about to curse angrily, his neck tightened, and his own collar was also grabbed by the consort.
"If I told you that I didn't know about this, would you believe it?"
Jia Liu pushed the old man to the "desk" angrily, straightened his collar, and adjusted his official hat that was crooked by the old man.
The old rich man who had never been treated like this in his whole life was really angry. He pushed up his hands fiercely, and his fat body suddenly flew across the office. Before one foot even landed, he had already opened the "drawer" with one hand and took out something from it.
He got an imperial short-handed gun.
But before the gun could be raised, the prince's pistol was already pointed at him.
Governor, Admiral.
Each pointed a gun at the other.
The atmosphere in the tent became extremely tense.
After a long time, the two of them put down their pistols in unison, one put it in his waistband, and the other put it back in the drawer.
"Regardless of whether these people are the guerrilla flag-bearers I controlled, what their purpose is, what their spirit is, what they are doing now is harming the Qing Dynasty.
Such atrocious behavior, regardless of its 'spirit', should not be condoned. I, Jia Jia Shikai, will never allow the brutal Eight Banners general to act recklessly, so this incident must be suppressed as soon as possible! As soon as possible!"
Jia Liu looked solemn, "If the Governor does not suppress it, then I, Sichuan Green Camp, will carry out the suppression!"
