The commander of the fourth town is Cui Hengyou, who was born in the Han Army Banner. Back then, the Tongjin Association held a robbery on the road in Xiaojinchuan, and became the oldest member of the blood alliance brothers.
His Majesty the Emperor now affectionately calls him "Old Cui".
The last person who was so affectionately called "Old Cui" by His Majesty the Emperor was Cui Liangchen, the former mission director of the Meino official village.
More than a month ago, Cui Liangchen was reported by the Metropolitan Procuratorate due to his lifestyle issues. Afterwards, His Majesty the Emperor personally issued an order to remove Cui Liangchen from his official position and serve the people.
It is to fight to the end and pursue the meaning of words since birth.
God knows how a fifth-rank official could work hard. The Vice-President of the Capital City made a special report for impeachment. The Secretary of General Affairs rushed the report to the emperor's palace. His Majesty, who had so many things to do, was busy with everything.
He personally reviewed the papers and gave instructions personally.
It’s unclear how the outside world discussed this matter. Anyway, during a chat with Lao Bo, the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister, Lao Li, they accidentally said: “My good son-in-law is very petty, and we will try to offend him as little as possible unless there is nothing particularly important.”
Cui Hengyou's ancestor is not well-known and is not among the outstanding figures in "The Legend of Erchen", so his ancestor cannot be tested now.
There is no point in taking the test.
It is nothing more than a question of the quality of the traitor.
Since the war began, Cui Hengyou has been standing on the hillside to closely follow the development of the war. The military flag representing the town command post behind him flutters in the wind, which is particularly conspicuous on the snow-covered hillside.
In terms of commanding ability, Cui Hengyou is average.
He has been engaged in logistics work in the past. When he was in the Huguang Green Camp, he also held the position of admiral of the Chinese Army. He was responsible for managing money, food, personnel, documents, local coordination and other errands. He was equivalent to the director of the Huguang Admiral's Office.
After the establishment of the Second Army, Cui Hengyou was personally nominated by His Majesty the Emperor as the commander of the Fourth Town.
The reason is that Cui Hengyou's loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor far exceeds 100 points.
Asiha, who was in charge of the army at the time, opposed this appointment. The reason was simply that Cui Hengyou had no experience in leading an army alone in the past, so he might not be qualified to be the commander of a town suddenly.
"Who is born to fight? Who is born to lead troops? Who is born to be an emperor? Aren't they all just trying to cross the river step by step? Do you think they are all born with the same talent as me?"
With the support of His Majesty the Emperor, Cui Hengyou was able to assume the post of commander (general military rank) and become a senior general of the reform army.
This time, it was also the first time Cui Hengyou commanded a battle since he took over.
When the Second Army left Huguang and headed north, it could be said that it was on the lookout for the wind and did not encounter any resistance at all. Until the peaceful liberation of the capital, the Second Army did not fire a single shot!
The town flag behind him is more conspicuous.
But Cui Hengyou is not worried that the big flag behind him will attract the attention of the Eight Banners soldiers. If the Eight Banners soldiers can rush to the big flag behind him, it means that the Fourth Town has been defeated and his death has come.
Rather than worrying about when he will die, it is better to watch his subordinates fight bravely to kill the enemy. Even if they really can't stop the bandits outside the pass, then they can become a benevolent people in the Thirteen Mountains and repay the kindness of the Sixth Son for their knowledge and promotion.
He wouldn't dare think of retreating.
Not to mention that Wang Fu, who had become the commander-in-chief of the corps, could not spare him. Even his immediate superior, Azu, would probably kill him with the small pistol given by Liuzi Yu.
When it comes to understanding the nature of the Six Sons, Cui Hengyou is no worse than others.
He knew that Liuzi could tolerate his subordinates losing the battle, but he would never tolerate his subordinates retreating without authorization or escaping from battle.
Therefore, no matter whether he wins or loses the battle, he just needs to stay on the job.
The fighting in Paoergou in the distance has become fierce, and the choking smell of gunpowder smoke has drifted to the town command post on the wind. Although he was worried that Paoergou would be lost, Cui Hengyou did not send reinforcements to Paoergou because ten soldiers stationed there
Jiang Hua, the leader of the Eighth Regiment, did not send a signal for help.
This shows that the 18th Regiment can still withstand the intensity of the enemy's attacks so far.
After kicking a few loose stones on the ground, Cui Hengyou suddenly asked his adjutant Zhao Bingzhong: "Do you know why we have to go out to fight this battle?"
"Of course it is to wipe out the reactionary Eight Banners group outside the customs, maintain the unification of the Qing Dynasty, let the fertile land outside the customs become the granary of the Qing Dynasty, and let the mineral resources outside the customs become the driving force for the take-off of the Qing Dynasty."
Zhao Bingzhong's answer was very standard. He was the first batch of students of the Baoding Armed Forces Academy. Although he only attended the academy for less than five months, he was already an excellent soldier.
Many of the textbooks in the Military Academy were copied from the Xiaozhai Flag Guard Training Camp back then. Many of the textbooks were said to have been written and calibrated by His Majesty the Emperor himself.
In the textbook "Geography", a special introduction is made to the areas outside the Guan Guan, from history to current situation, from land to resources, from development to strategy. The explanations in the book can be said to be refreshing, allowing students to experience the areas outside the Guan Guan for the first time.
importance to the country.
Cui Hengyou nodded with satisfaction: "A strong country must be a unified country, and it must also be a country with a vast territory, but building a strong country does not rely on dreams, but on iron and blood!"
These words come from the fifth paragraph of Chapter 3 of the Selected Diary of the Emperor.
I don’t know since when, the army formed a trend of studying the reform diary.
From the commander of the corps to the lowest level officers at the camp and post, everyone is proud to be familiar with His Majesty the Emperor's diary.
Some generals even read the emperor's diary as a military manual.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some people regard the diary as a "story meeting".
.........
Ant Village, on the edge of the Bohai Sea.
The severe cold caused ice to accumulate in the coastal area. According to the pre-war estimates of the Qintian Supervisor of the capital, the winter of the first year of the Restoration may be much colder than in previous years. Therefore, the Qintian Supervisor specially provided thirteen measures to prevent cold and keep warm for the troops leaving the customs.
Lard ointment is the antifreeze weapon recommended by Qin Tianjian.
On the beach, Jia Liu, who was wearing a cotton coat and a dog-skin hat, didn't look like an emperor at all. If it weren't for the densely surrounded imperial guards in yellow mantles, no one would think that Jia Liu looked great.
associated with the reform emperors.
Looking at the ice that spread for several miles, Jia Liu thought thoughtfully and said to Lao Chen who was accompanying him: "I heard that it was very cold that year when Emperor Taizu attacked Ningyuan, and the sea surface was covered with thick ice.
The Qing soldiers stepped on the ice and captured Juehua Island, where the Ming army concentrated grain, and now it seems that this statement is true."
Having said this, I couldn't help but pause, and looked at Old Chen with some confusion: "Are you cold?"
"It's not cold, it's not cold. As long as the Emperor is around, I feel warm, especially warm, even in an ice cave."
Qianlong, who was also wearing a large cotton-padded jacket with his hands in his sleeves, quickly denied that he was cold, even though his ears were frozen hard by the sea breeze.
"Is it?"
Jia Liu glanced suspiciously at Qianlong who was obviously cold but pretended to be warm. He felt soft in his heart and took off his dog-skin hat and put it on Qianlong. He said harmoniously: "bearing humiliation and bearing heavy burdens, enduring hardships and suffering hardships, and submitting to hardships are all for revenge, revenge."
The premise is that you must be able to outlive me and have a good body and bones that can allow you to live for a long time. Otherwise, how can you take revenge?"
"Your Majesty, even if I die, I will not dare to have any desire for revenge!"
Qianlong was so horrified that he knelt down on the ground without hesitation. Without saying a word, he knocked on the head of Guiziliu a few times. When he raised his head, his forehead trembled.
"do not do that,"
Jia Liu lifted Qianlong up, stared at him and said seriously: "I will live by you for the rest of my life. You must hold on no matter what, otherwise my life will lose a lot of fun."
After saying that, he turned to look at Mr. Zhang Jia, who was sitting next to him smoking a pipe. "You can arrange for Mr. Chen to come to your place to experience life. This will help inspire his creative inspiration."
