Chapter 128 New Type Quick Gun

The military affairs had initial results, and the emperor was in a good mood. After thinking for a while, he said: "Zeng Guofan, you wrote the "Explanation of Military Affairs Letter" and the "Blood of the Green Camp, the Eight Banners Soldier System". I think, just send you to Tianjin once. As you said just now, discipline is really the most important factor in the army. The ethics of military generals are important, otherwise the soldiers cannot be restrained. Once the discipline is broken, the people will be afraid of it. Where can they win battles? So I let go and let you do it. The newly built army not only needs to practice formation and martial arts well, but also needs to scan the flag camp and green camp's dusk energy."

"It is the emperor's fault in the army, and I am fully shining. I am cultivated by the emperor and I am grateful for it. Now I am strictly enforcing the new policy and working hard to strengthen it. I must do my best to repay it." As he said, Zeng Guofan touched two loud noises.

"There are also flag camps. These bad men are very useful, and they receive a salary all day long, and they don't do much. Don't be rude to the flag camp." The emperor said, thinking in his heart that no matter how capable Zeng Guofan is, he is always a Han official. If he can make his uncles be willing to bow his head, it is not because of his poor ability, but because he cannot show his strength. He said immediately: "I will let Senggelinqin go to Tianjin with you. In short, we must completely eliminate the military affairs of the flag camp."

After retreating several people from the Military Affairs Office, the emperor issued an order: "Zhao Sushun comes to the imperial court."

Sushun was promoted again recently. Seeing that he was loyal and diligent, the emperor picked him up and became the Minister of the Interior Department and was in charge of the emperor's inner court affairs. In addition, he also asked him to serve as an errand in the Ministry of War, and he was paid every day, so he passed by: "I wish you a blessing to the emperor."

"Sushun, I have met several adults from the Military Affairs Office just now, and they specifically mentioned that it is time for military affairs to be properly rectified."

"Yes. The master of the wise and wise man has no fault. This time, the slave went to Tianjin. He was specially ordered by the emperor and went to Yangcun military camp to see all kinds of misfortune and favoritism. It is not something that the slave can answer. He will be punished by heaven."

"That's exactly what I mean. So I intend to do a military system reform in the Ruijian Camp, Firearm, Jianpu Camp, Forward Camp, Guard Camp, and even the Guard Camp of the Old Summer Palace. This was originally Zeng Guofan's job, but it would be difficult to let those under his command listen to the Han people's orders. So, I think, let you help from the side and perform your duties."

Su Shun was frightened. He knew that once such a thing was accepted, he would undoubtedly offend almost all the Eight Banners children. But when the emperor was curling his horse and bent his bow and just waiting for his words to make a decision, how could he let go of the king and father? Moreover, how could he let go of the wealth that was within his reach?

Thinking of this, Sushun knelt down solemnly: "As long as you can share the worries of the emperor and the country of the Qing Dynasty, even if you are crushed to pieces, you will not retreat at all."

"If you have such a heart, you will have good fortune in the future. You get up first." The emperor waved his hand and asked him to stand up and said to him, "This time the British went north and asked me to ask for legal opium trading to be legal. I asked the General Administration to reject the British requests one by one. I think not long after that, the British will lightly offend our border areas like the Emperor's reign. Although I have not seen the military affairs of each province with my own eyes, I only look at Tianjin. I know that it is nothing more than such a situation. Therefore, I have ordered the Military Affairs Office to send the court to various provinces with 400 miles. The military system reform must be carried out before the British barbarians can be used as opium trade. I will see the results before the British barbarians come to the border again."

"As for the capital, I thought about it, instead of making a big move to reform the military system, it is better to temporarily draw some people from each battalion and set up a battalion separately. After thinking about it, it is called Shenji Camp. All training, establishment of institutions, establishment of officials, building barracks, enjoying preferential salaries, and the corresponding officials are different from those of the other party. Specifically, I think Erikhan will be the left wing leader of the left and right wing leader of the Shenji Camp, and you will be the right wing leader."

"As for the choice of soldiers, we can select the strong ones from the Ruijian Camp, Firearm, Jianpu Camp, Qianfeng Camp, Guardian Camp, and Yuanmingyuan Guardian Camp, and recruit the people from the prefectures and counties in the capital, Zhili, in short, there is a mixture of Manchu and Han, and we should not stick to the difference between nation and territory. You must remember this section."

"Also, the most important point is that the military equipment of the Shenji Camp completely uses Western weapons. On this level, I will issue a separate order to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Works in the future. Your duty is to build the construction of the Shenji Camp for me in the shortest time. This matter is fully responsible for you and Erikhan."

The emperor said, Sushun agreed, and when the emperor finished speaking, Sushun lay on the ground and rang out: "Please rest assured, the servants will work hard to do the job, and train the emperor's "Shenji Camp" with golden mouths to become the first iron army of the Qing Dynasty to protect my emperor and the country of the Qing Dynasty as stable as a mountain."

"You don't have to be so anxious. The British administration is very different from our Celestial Empire. Even if you really want to use force, it will not be able to be implemented in a year or two. There are still plenty of time, just imitate the order of Emperor Gaozong to set up the Jianrui Camp." The emperor felt that his words were a bit fragmented, but Sushun was doing his old errands, so he didn't need to explain it himself. "It's about half a year, within half a year, the Shenji Camp will be established. At that time, I want Laibao? The errands over there can be completed."

Bao? This time he rushed to Hangzhou from afar. In addition to Zhang Jingtang Wenzhi, the General Administration's U.S. stock company, there were two interns selected from the Tongwenguan, one was named Yinchang and the other was Zhiyan, the son of Wenyu.

It was the sunny season in April. The group went from land to Tongzhou, then took a boat and headed south along the river. The green willows were shady and the flowers and trees were blooming. The scenery was really not bad.

Several people were riding an official boat and talking and laughing for a banquet. They didn't realize how fast it was. Bao? He was surrounded by a servant who served him. I heard that he was a young actress from Chunxi Ban in Beijing. His name was Fubao. He had red lips and white teeth, pointed fingers, and a pair of watery eyes. He probably performed the role of the young actress on the stage, and his actions looked like a girl. Yinchang was a honest man, but he just felt strange and didn't think much about it.

Zhiyan is different. He is a young man and is already a familiar player in the field of romance. Just by scanning his eyebrows and eyes, he knows that this little dan named "Fubao" is a bad listener during the day, and at night, he is the scepter on the side of the bedside. But he doesn't understand why Lord Bao has to bring a scepter with him when he goes to Hangzhou to do the job? I wonder if the emperor's edict was approved?

Get off the boat at dusk, follow the canal, and arrive in Zhejiang Province at midnight. The boat was parked under the Chuihong Bridge. The crescent moon was like a hook, and the breeze came into my arms. Bao? He was so excited that he was drunk: "Oh no." Yinchang, who was beside him, said: "I only brought the road dishes, but forgot to bring the wine."

"It doesn't matter." The one who is beside Bao? said, "I'm very familiar with this place. There is a Zhendian not far from the ashore. There are several wine sellers. They are still enjoying the cold at this time, so they don't have to worry about not being able to open the store."

So Bao? sent a man to the boatman to cook wine, and then asked the boatman to cook water and tea, and leaned against the boat with Tang Wenzhi, Yinchang and Zhiyan while playing with the name and playing the moon while chatting.

"Uncle Bao," Fubao said with a smile: "I have an idea, do you think it's impossible to make it? Why don't you go to the bridge to drink, so how happy it is, and how cool it is?"

"This is a good idea." Tang Wenzhi blurted out: "I originally wanted to go ashore to relax my muscles and bones. After being on this boat for many days, my body was rusted."

Bao? He was determined not to follow, but Tang Wenzhi had already said it, so he could not say anything else to reject it. He ordered people to pack up tea sets, food boxes, cups and plates, and brought a few dragon beard mats to build a springboard to get on the bridge. The bridge was first built during the Northern Song Dynasty. It was originally a wooden bridge, but now it has been changed to a stone bridge. The pavilion built in the bridge was called Chuihong Pavilion.

Yinchang and Zhiyan laid a dragon beard mat in the pavilion, and asked Bao and Tang Wenzhi to sit opposite each other, and sat cross-legged on the side to listen to them.

Tang Wenzhi chuckled and looked at Fubao sitting next to him. The moonlight shone on his childish face, with beautiful eyebrows and a little shy, like a girl: "How old are you this year?"

"Sixteen."

"How many years have you been in the school?"

“More than eight years.”

"In more than eight years, I have many songs, right?"

"He has been full of masters for a long time." Bao? said: "His master doesn't let him go, and he sang very well, but now there is no flute around him, otherwise he can sing a paragraph for you."

"My cabin has a flute," Tang Wenzhi waved to Zhiyan: "I'll take your car to get the flute in my cabin."

Zhiyan quickly walked out of the pavilion, and Tang Wenzhi asked again: "Have you studied?"

"It's not a question of studying, but I just recognize the book and recognize a few words." Fu Bao said, "Uncle Bao often told me that I should read some lyrics and music in my stomach, otherwise I would not be able to show my identity when performing the "school" and "shocking dreams".

"This is also the reason why you are so proud of your poetry and literature." Tang Wenzhi asked: "What lyrics and music have you read in your stomach?"

"What he likes the most is the Zhu and Chen family poems." Bao? said while he was in the side.

Zhu was Zhu Yizun, and Chen was Chen Qi Nian. He was one of the famous scholars of the Kangxi Dynasty. He was a master of science and knowledge. He was named after two major poets since the Qing Dynasty. However, the earliest collection of lyrics was called "Zhu Chencun Ci". Tang Wenzhi also liked these two lyrics, so he listened to Bao's words and felt more interested: "Then, there is a song "High Balcony" in the local scenery. Do you always remember it?"

"I remember. Every time I go out on a boat with Mr. Bao, I always think of this poem."

"You read it to Mr. Tang." Bao? said: "It's not a big deal to know how to sing lyrics and music. Rhyme is another kind of skill. Some slants should be used as flat tones. Please give me some advice to you."

Fubao nodded and said loudly: "The shadow of the bridge flows through the rainbow, the lake light reflects the snow, the green curtain does not roll down the spring. One inch of waves, the heartbroken man is in the shade of the building. The gossip is not tied to a sheep cart, who is the Qiang slogan? The most difficult to stop, leaning on the carved railings, dreaming of the silk quilts. The clouds are gone again, and the pearls are cold and the purple jade smoke is sinking. The peach blossoms are still blooming in the river. I am in love and afraid of the lovesickness, and I hope that the grass in the long dike will be filled with red hearts. I am sad and chanting, and the yellow spring falls, and it is difficult to find two places."

A passage of lyrics made him clear and more emotional than sad. Tang Wenzhi nodded and said, "It's great. Your pronunciation method is in line with Zhu Zhu's original meaning, but there are a few words that should not be let go."

"Yes, please call me by Mr. Tang."

"Take a film for example, the word "刘" in the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis of the penis should be pronounced heavily. All sentences in the lyrics should be used without sound, so that they can be able to cheer up. I think the principle of your singing song should be similar."

Fu Bao whispered the example he gave several times, and it was indeed good. He said happily: "I really have to worship Mr. Tang as a teacher."

Bao? He is very humorous and is well-known in the General Administration Office. Tang Wenzhi has worked with him for many years and is already familiar with him. After hearing what he said, Tang Wenzhi laughed: "Be kind to me as a teacher? Then, how do you let Lord Bao handle yourself?" After that, he burst into laughter.

Although the master had not worshipped him, Tang Wenzhi gave him some advice on the sound and rhyme. While laughing, he heard the crowd return with wine. Everyone sat around the pavilion and chatting. He also heard Fubao sing two Kunqu operas against Tang Wenzhi's flute sounds, a set of northern songs. Bao? He learned the bright moonlit night of the Twenty-Four Bridges similar to Jiang Baishi, and Xiaohong sang me in a low voice.

While I was having fun, I don’t know the reason why the person started, but the topic turned to this errand.

Tang Wenzhi said: "The emperor just saw a memorial from Yang Chaoyuan, so he ordered us to go to Zhejiang Province to negotiate with the beauty about the breeze seven-sounding musket. Brother Peiheng, do you know what this breeze seven-sounding musket is?"

"This has stopped me." Bao? shook his head regretfully and turned to look at Yinchang and Zhiyan: "Do you know?"

"Students know a little about it," said Yinchang.

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"Yes." Yinchang studied in Tongwenguan, but he was particularly keen on the French teacher Professor Chamei's study of studying things. He once heard that Priest Chamei, who traveled to the United States, talked to him about the breeze seven-sounding sound, the latest musket developed by the United States during the holiday last year.

Seeing Bao? and Tang Wenzhi's attention on his face, Yinchang felt very satisfied, "I heard from Priest Chamei that this kind of musket uses the principle of leverage, making the firing more concise and convenient. There is no risk of continuous loading of muskets in the past, and it can be used to collect time and effort. It can be used to achieve great achievements against the enemy's formation. Oh, the student once asked Priest Chamei to draw a picture for me, but it fell on the boat and did not bring it."

"Seven consecutive shots?" Bao? Thinking for a while, "But is it continuous shots?"

"This, the priest said, cannot be fired continuously. Every time a shot is fired, the spring must be re-loaded before it can be replayed."

Tang Wenzhi said, "Isn't that the same musket as the ones used in my Celestial Empire?"

Yinchang wanted to say, how could it be the same? But he and Bao? Tang Wenzhi's official positions are too different, and the rituals of superiors and inferiors must be followed, so he had to pursed his lips and no longer said anything more.

Bao? After drinking the wine in a glass of wine, he stood up: "You don't have to argue with the young brother on the fifth floor now. When you arrive at the government office tomorrow, you will see the real thing, don't you know?" As he said that, he waved his hand: "It's night, I'll go back early to rest. I'll have to go to the government office to visit Lord Yang tomorrow morning."
