Chapter 452: What Yang Fuqing was most worried about at this time was that he was afraid that he would be left behind by the times. For this reason, there was no...
Because the person Lin Haifeng mentioned was Yang Fuqing.
The reason why Lin Haifeng mentioned Yang Fuqing at this time was that he had reached a tacit understanding with Shi Dakai about Yang Fuqing's issue and also blew the wind with Zheng Hongren.
Of course, Lin Haifeng also "has other intentions", but it is definitely not for some favoritism.
Back then, because of his brother-in-law Pan Fulai, he was involved in the "Kunshan shooting case" and the "Hangzhou Soldiers Station case". Not only did he fail to protect his brother-in-law, he also went from a dignified Hunan governor to an instantly "exiled to Xinjiang" criminal. While falling to the lowest point of his life, he should be said to be quite lucky at the same time.
The reason why Yang Fuqing is said to be lucky is because he benefited from the good policy of "punishing past mistakes and preventing future generations, curing diseases and saving people" in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in that era.
In that era, not all prisoners could get the opportunity to be "exiled" to the northwest and northeast to serve their sentences.
Because in the northwest and northeast that year, the prisoners who were "distributed" from the mainland were not the high-wall prisons with military and police standing in a row and guarding, but just some "labor brigades" affiliated to the Agricultural Reclamation Corps.
Specifically, these so-called labor brigades used to discipline prisoners, whether in daily life, study, or management, are actually not much different from other departments of the Agricultural Reclamation Corps.
To put it bluntly, if no one had made it clear, no one would have easily seen the difference between the people in the "labor brigade" and the normal people.
In a word, these labor brigades of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom located on the border should use their labor and study to help those who were once ashamed of the people of the Celestial Empire to clean up the sins they had on them.
Therefore, those who can be sent to the northwest and northeast for prisoners are basically prisoners who will not pose a huge threat to the interests of the people of the Celestial Empire and the government again.
After arriving in Xinjiang, Yang Fuqing, who was sentenced to three years, was assigned to the Third New Labor Brigade, which was appointed by the Northwest Military and Political Office, to be managed by the 14th Agricultural Army designated by the Northwest Military and Political Office.
The three-year sentence was not long, and the reality encountered by Yang Fuqing made his life almost fly to spend.
Because the third new labor brigade where Yang Fuqing is located is just around the corner of He Ergon.
When Yang Fuqing, who had already had a deep repentance for his sins, had just improved from an ordinary labor student to captain iǎ within a year, it was the strong restoration storm that blew up the Kazakh prairie. The Third New Labor Brigade, like the departments of the 14th Agricultural Army near the border area, followed the unified deployment of the Northwest Military and Political Office, without delaying its own production, he also did all his strength to give great support to the Kazakh people.
During this period, as a prison student of the Third New Labor Brigade, Yang Fuqing and his thirty-odd students of the iǎ team have been together with the military workers of the Red 14th Army again and again, relying on their shoulders and sweat, they have brought batches of scarce supplies to the Sak people.
In 1863, in view of Yang Fuqing's excellent performance during his sentence, he was discharged from his sentence three months in advance. According to convention, at this time, Yang Fuqing could not only choose to return to his hometown or a certain area in the mainland, but also the Celestial Government would reassign him an appropriate job based on his specific performance during his sentence.
However, Yang Fuqing finally chose to stay in the 14th Army of the Agricultural Army, and under his repeated requests, he first insisted on the Heergon Regiment Farm, which was closest to the border line by the 14th Army of the Agricultural Army. Later, he went to Tashkent.
The 14th Agricultural Army's reclamation area in Tashkent is quite special. It not only undertakes the important task of helping the Kingdom of Kokand to stabilize its domestic trend at any time, but also is a strong base and fortress for the Kazakhstan restoration movement.
It was in Tashkent that while Yang Fuqing truly relived his professional military career, he also fully demonstrated his intelligence and talent. He was only leading a farm reclamation squadron of more than 100 people, not only made various rational suggestions to the decision-making level of the reclamation area more than once, but also, just like the Jintian Troupe Camp at the beginning, charged forward and retreated behind. At the cost of three minor injuries and one serious injury, he provided great help to the Kazakh National Salvation Army to open up the Sir and Chu River bases. Therefore, he also became one of the unforgettable friends of the Celestial Empire, the leader of the Kazakh people's restoration.
On August 1, 1868, as a member of the Northwest Agricultural Reclamation Corps, when Yang Fuqing was lucky enough to come to Beijing to participate in the August 1 parade, he had already made progress to become the deputy director of a farm of the 14th Agricultural Army, just relying on the endless sweat he had shed over the past few years.
However, at this time, Yang Fuqing had a big heart knot.
Because since the beginning of this year, like the divisions of the Northwest Agricultural Reclamation Corps, the 14th Agricultural Army has also undergone a change. Although they were once scattered in various places, they have always strictly required themselves according to the regular Red Army troops, focusing on production on one hand and persevering in the other, they have begun to concentrate in a planned manner.
Those who don’t understand may believe in the publicity of the Agricultural Reclamation Corps to the outside world, which is the so-called concentration, but it is just to deal with the August 1st military parade (the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government has publicly announced that the military parade on August 1, 1868 is a nationwide action. At that time, not only will the highest level of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government inspect the latest achievements of the Red Army in Beijing, but the various regions of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government will also conduct a comprehensive review of the armed forces in their respective jurisdictions).
But Yang Fuqing is not an ordinary person after all, not to mention that he is still paying attention to the changes in the overall situation at all times. At this time, even if he can't get any "iǎ威威" again, he can still judge that the day of the Red Army's great expansion has arrived.
At this time, what Yang Fuqing was most worried about was that he was afraid that he would be left behind by the times.
For this reason, before he learned that he was lucky enough to participate in the Beijing parade, Yang Fuqing, who had never contacted his brother once since embarking on the road to Xinjiang, finally wrote a letter to his brother Yang Xiuqing for the first time after hesitating for a long time.
In this letter, Yang Fuqing's only wish is to hope that his brother can help him return to the ranks of the Red Army.
But Yang Xiuqing was not interested in his brother.
This is not because the contact is too small, so the two brothers become alienated, but because Yang Xiuqing really "hate" his good brother too much.
But Yang Fuqing, who failed to get the reply from his brother, was not depressed.
As soon as he arrived in Beijing this time, although Yang Fuqing did not step into his brother's home once, he almost broke the threshold of Shi Dakai and Lin Haifeng.
The war is imminent, and I, Yang Fuqing, do not ask for anything else. I, only want to be an ordinary soldier and die on the battlefield for the Heavenly Kingdom!~!
