Chapter 823 It's all up to you to fight against the rebellion
In Jinan, Shandong Province, Governor Cathay received two official documents.
One sender is Prince He Shuorui and General Fuyuan;
The sender of one copy is the general director of the mutual aid association.
The contents of the two official documents were actually the same, but they were distributed to Shandong through different channels, indicating that the sender was a rather particular person.
Public is public, private is private, and the procedures cannot be messed up.
This is Jia Liuyi's usual way of doing things.
To sum up, the contents of the two official documents are just four words: urgent.
Expanded, it is just one sentence - "Shikai treats you well. Now that we are in trouble, you can't just ignore it, right?"
Another hidden meaning is - "If I fall, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die!"
At the same time, Shandong received an urgent notice from Zhili. In addition to informing the emperor that Qianlong was a great thief, Zhili also asked Shandong and Henan to respond to Prince Rui's call and immediately build a "rebellion army" with Zhili.
Be well prepared for armed struggle.
In addition to Yang Jingsu, the governor of Zhili, Fan Wei, the chief envoy of Zhili, Xu Ji, the governor of Tianjin, Demu, the commander-in-chief of Suiyuan, Ye Qing, the commander-in-chief of Tianjin, and Zamul, the navy commander, and other important military and political officials from Zhili also responded.
It is said that the Zhili garrison had ordered the governor to cut off the capital's external communication channels.
Only allowed in, not out.
In other words, the puppet imperial court in the capital can now only send and receive messages, but cannot send them.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Cathay Pacific immediately convened a meeting of Shandong's main military and political officials for consultation.
Also present at the meeting was Yu Yijian, the chief envoy in charge of civil affairs in Shandong, whose brother was Yu Minzhong, the former military minister.
However, his promotion from the prefect of Jinan to the governor of Shandong was not due to his brother, but to the support of Governor Cathay.
Therefore, towards Cathay, Yu Yi Jian was more like a lackey, and he was respectful and respectful to Cathay, the governor, more like a grandson than a grandson.
In addition to Yu Yi Jian, other officials from the government system who participated in the meeting included Jiang Wanquan, the envoy of Shandong Province, Gan Guobi, the prefect of Jinan, and Qiu Yuan, a member of Qingtao in Denglai.
All three of them were promoted from the grassroots level after Cathay served as governor of Shandong. Among them, Qiu Yuan was from the Zhenghuang Banner of the Han Army.
Three people from the military came to the meeting.
First, he is the only Shandong admiral who was awarded the title of No. 1 Baturu Yong in the Green Camp, was awarded the hereditary title of Yunqi Lieutenant, was awarded a yellow mandarin jacket, and was given the flower feathers for his eyes.
The second is Yan Qing, the commander-in-chief of Shandong.
When he was the Dusi, he led his troops to quell the rebellion of the Eight Banners soldiers in Jehol, and personally beheaded 13 rebels. He was awarded the honorable title of "Green Camp Strong Bones" by Mr. Jia, who was then Minister of War and commander-in-chief of the quelling rebellion.
After the secret operation, he was promoted to the rank of general soldier based on his merits.
The third is Tong Hetu, the deputy capital of the Eight Banners garrisoned in Qingzhou.
This man was originally the leader of the Eight Banners in Qingzhou. He followed the great scholar Shu Hede to the north and unexpectedly came under the command of Lord Jia. Later, he was promoted to the deputy capital of Qingzhou for his merits in quelling the rebellion.
Qingzhou is also the only unit of the Eight Banners garrison in Shandong that retains its organizational structure. It has 16 forwards, 184 forwards, 8 artillery leaders, 48 shotgun leaders, 872 vests, and 7 shotguns and vests.
One hundred and fifty-two, 80 artillery and vests, total strength 2,150.
Another Eight Banners garrison in Shandong was the Eight Banners garrisoned in Dezhou. Unfortunately, due to the Qingshui Rebellion, the Eight Banners garrisoned in Dezhou was annihilated.
This makes the Eight Banners garrison in Qingzhou the only Eight Banners garrison in Shandong.
After everyone arrived, Mr. Futai showed the contents of the message to everyone and informed Zhili of the movement.
When the newspaper that published "Three Comments on Chen Jialuo, the Thief of the Country" was read by everyone one by one, Shandong's military and political officials were all shocked. Then the crowd became excited and asked the governor to call the governor immediately to respond.
At this time, Denglai Qing Taoist Qiu Yuan asked a question, that is, what is electricity.
Denglai Qingdao Yuan is a deputy-level senior official in Shandong Province. Similar to the former Ming Dynasty chief envoy, subordinate officials participated in politics, and his political status in the province is extremely high.
In addition, Denglai Qingsan Prefecture is relatively wealthy and has a large population, so Qiu Yuan, a Taoist priest, has more say than Gan Guobi, the prefect of Jinan, the provincial capital.
Cathay Pacific is not sure why Prince Rui used the word "energization". Based on the actual situation, it is speculated that this so-called "energization" may be a statement directed at the court, provinces, and border regions to publicly issue a declaration of solidarity.
After understanding what he meant, Weiyi immediately stood up and expressed his position: "In this case, I, Shandong, will immediately send electricity to the whole country to respond to Prince Rui's call! And immediately send people to Xiangyang to attend the meeting of hundreds of officials and clans!"
This is unconditional support.
It is also true that adversity reveals affection, and time reveals one's strength.
The only thing is that he is a good man from Manchuria and he has lived up to the cultivation and love given to him by Prince Rui.
Of course, as we all know, Qianlong's son-in-law Jamutai was the only one whose head was beheaded.
"We, the Eight Banners of Shandong, firmly support Prince Rui and are at odds with that thief Chen Jialuo!"
Hetu, deputy commander of the Eight Banners garrisoned in Qingzhou, stood up for the second time after Admiral Weiyi to express his attitude.
As the saying goes, He Tu was able to rise from the rank of military commander to the commander-in-chief of the Shandong Eight Banners Army, but it was only because of the support of Prince Rui.
If Prince Rui falls, what will happen to Hetu?
Yan Qing, the commander-in-chief of Shandong Province, was speechless and emotionally expressed his willingness to immediately lead his troops north to fight against the rebellion!
The statements of the three senior members of the military gave Cathay Pacific reassurance. Needless to say his attitude, if it had not been for Prince Rui, Cathay Pacific would have been killed by Wang Fa!
Speaking of which, Prince Renrui saved his Cathay three times!
He will never be able to repay this favor in his lifetime!
What's more, the imperial censor in the imperial court always impeached him, and the old man Qianlong always wanted to take advantage of him!
The situation has reached this point, and if you do nothing, you will rebel against Qianlong!
However, he did not rush to express his position. Instead, he looked at his close deputy Yu Yijian and asked the government what they thought about this matter.
It is easy for a warrior to use a gun, but without the literati behind to raise money and food supplies, it will be difficult for a warrior to use the gun.
Therefore, the attitude of officials in Shandong Province must be consistent, and there must be no different opinions. This may cause Shandong to be passive at the least, or cause the entire province to fall into internal strife at worst.
Yu Yijian Noxu sorted out the current situation in detail, and murmured for a while with Gan Guobi, the prefect of Jinan, Qiu Yuan, a Qingdao member from Denglai, and others. Finally, he stood up on behalf of the government and said: "Our province can send a call to respond.
The chance of winning is extremely high!"
Cathay cheered up: "Tell me and listen."
"Zhili has already opened electricity, followed by Shandong, Sichuan, Shanxi, Henan, Huguang, Shaanxi, and Gansu. Half of the provinces in the country have electricity in response to Prince Rui."
Yu Buzheng is a member of the Mutual Aid Association, so he naturally knows that the top leaders in Henan and Shanxi provinces are members of the Mutual Aid Association, and Yang Jingsu, the governor of Zhili, is the founding father of the Mutual Aid Association. Now he is also the first to respond to Prince Rui via phone and publicly express his opposition to Qianlong's theft of the country.
With Zhili taking the lead, and with the military support of Prince Zhu Rui, the governor-general, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi provinces simultaneously connected to the whole country, and in fact completely surrounded and isolated the capital.
Therefore, Yu Yijian even believed that this revolt might even end the political life of the country-stealing thief Chen Jialuo without even using a single soldier.
In this way, Shandong certainly cannot be a tortoise and sit back and watch other provinces seize the original source of peace and its great contribution to supporting the Qing Dynasty.
All fools know that Qianlong's downfall will usher in a new round of power purge inside and outside the court.
Who gets on and who gets off all depends on this time.
"Well, please send a telegram on behalf of me, Your Majesty, so that the army and civilians of Shandong Province will respond to Prince Rui's call and immediately organize a rebellion against the rebels!"
Cathay is not a mother-in-law kind of person. He stood up and looked at the three admirals. As a governor, he bowed deeply to the three of them: "It's all up to you to fight against rebellion!"
