Chapter 13 Nine-door Admiral

In the early morning, the guards in the palace were handing over the night shift. Apart from the occasional footsteps of soldiers, only the breeze blew by and brought out the sound of flowers and plants.

Tongzhi was running around the inside of the palace in the morning, and his clothes were completely soaked in sweat. Behind him, dozens of personal guards were also gasping.

"Old Chen, you can take someone back to change clothes first, and change another group of people tomorrow to continue training." After returning to the bedroom, Tongzhi said to the guard running behind him.

"It's the Emperor"

"Uh, wait first, change your clothes and go to the Imperial Study room to wait for me. I will explain something to you."

"Yes, I'm leaving." Chen Guifen didn't care about wiping the sweat beads on his forehead, arranged the people on duty, and led people away.

"It's so fucking good." Under the maid's service, she took a shower and changed clothes and soaked in warm water. Tongzhi couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Your Majesty, the water is cold. I will add some hot water to you." The maid next to her reminded in a low voice.

"Oh, no need, you guys go back, I'll do it myself." Tongzhi was really embarrassed to be so many palace maids.

Changing into a clean regular dress, Tongzhi walked towards the Imperial Study while enjoying the scenery in the palace.

The "Emperor" had already been waiting outside the imperial study room when Chen Guifen saw Tongzhi coming and was about to kneel down to pay his respects.

"Old Chen, don't be too polite, come in with me." Tongzhi waved his hand and walked into the imperial study room.

"This is the clothes, hats, training plans and funds I designed for those children. See what's wrong with it." Tongzhi took out a few drawings from the drawer and said.

The clothes were designed based on the training uniforms in the army when Tongzhi was in the army, and the training plan also imitated the training model of modern troops.

"Your Majesty, isn't this kind of clothes a little..." Chen Guifen, who had never seen such clothes, seemed a little unacceptable.

"Just do what I draw. You will change into this kind of clothes after a while."

"Yes, my master, then I still don't understand this training plan."

The training plan made by Tongzhi was to divide the thirty people into one platoon, and divide them into three classes, and set up a platoon leader and three squad leader respectively. Daily training includes queue training, five kilometers, fighting training, basic training programs for modern troops, and of course, it also includes horse riding and other training content.

"Well, I have considered this training plan for a long time. First, I will train my physical fitness firmly and wait for a while to buy the weapon before going to the next step of training." Tongzhi smiled and explained.

"Weapons? Don't we all have ready-made weapons?" Chen Guifen was a little confused. There were various big swords, spears, bows and arrows in the arsenal, which could be transported over at any time.

"This..., sword, which one do you think is better than the guns and cannons of foreigners?"

"I understand." Chen Guifen's eyes burst out with brilliance. He had long been drooling at the new weapons, but only a small part was equipped with the new army, the Huai army, etc., and they had no chance to contact them.

"Well, you leave these things to your reliable subordinates, remember not to disclose our base."

"Yes, the emperor"

Although Chen Guifen has no ambitions, he is very sincere. He knows what he should do and is one of the best kung fu.

"This person is worthy of reusing," Tongzhi has already made a conclusion for Chen Guifen in his heart.

The commander of the fifth battalion of the Nine Gate Infantry, referred to as the Gate Admiral or the commander of the Infantry Army, is mainly responsible for the guards and access controls inside and outside the nine gates of the inner city of Beijing. It is also responsible for night patrols, firefighting, bans, arrests, and imprisonment, etc., and is actually the commander of the imperial guards of the Qing Dynasty.

The nine-men admiral was assisted by two generals, left and right, and the general was the deputy general, who was subordinate to the general. Therefore, the nine-men admiral was equivalent to the commander of the modern capital garrison.

During the current period of Tongzhi, Prince Chun Yihuan, who served as the admiral of the Nine Gates, has learned a lot about this Yihuan.

Yihuan, one of the eight ministers of the regent, cooperated with Prince Gong to launch the Xinyou coup. His great wife, that is, Cixi's sister, can be said to be Cixi's direct descendant.

This gave Tongzhi a headache. The position of the Nine Gate Admiral is really important, and it can even be said to be more important than the Ministry of War.

"Damn, I don't have gold fingers for me when I'm reborn, what's wrong with me?"

In the position of the Nine Gate Admiral, you must let your people sit on it, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain. After all, this imperial guard has 30,000 troops.

As long as you control this army, you will control the entire court.

Is it really impossible to send someone to assassinate?

No, even if you kill me, I don’t have the power to arrange my own people to take over, let alone not having many people in my hands to use them.

"We must seize the handle of these people, but who should we send to be an undercover agent to collect information?" Tongzhi leaned on the chair, put his legs on the table, thinking quietly.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were Jinyiwei, Hulong Villa, etc., the Republic of China had spy detectives such as the Military Control Commission, and in modern times, there were famous intelligence agencies such as the CIA, Mossad, and the KGB.

So, why can't I imitate them and form my own intelligence reconnaissance system?

What kind of people know the most is the gangsters at the bottom. There will be such a type of people in every era.

Since ancient times, heroes have been sad about beauty barriers. The Military Commission has had beautiful spies, who specialize in using female agents to get close to some powerful male officials, get information, and even take their lives at any time.

Unconsciously, countless thoughts emerged in Tongzhi's mind, and a framework was formed bit by bit...

At noon, in the Palace of Peaceful Heart.

"Sending the meal", when Eunuch Wang shouted loudly, the eunuch behind him jogged all the way to the imperial kitchen.

A few minutes later, a group of eunuchs, each carrying a plate into the Yangxin Hall, placed it neatly on the table, and then retreated aside.

"You all retreat." Seeing that all the dishes were served, the prince asked all the eunuchs to leave the hall, leaving only eight palace maids and one palace maid in charge left in the hall.

"Come on, you all sit down and eat together." Looking at the eighty-one hard dishes, Tong Zhi swallowed and said to the palace maids.

"I don't dare." When the palace maid in charge heard this, her face changed drastically, and she knelt on the ground and said repeatedly.

The palace maid behind him also knelt on the ground with the manager, as if she had done something wrong.

"Everyone is up, I didn't blame you, I just let everyone eat together." Tongzhi also looked depressed.

The feudal system really harms the people, the lower class has almost no status, just like an accessory of the aristocratic class, which can determine their life and death.

Thanks for your support, updates are occasionally late and never absent!
