Chapter 283 Zhao Liang's trip to the South China Sea
When the spring breeze completely faded away the last trace of cold winter and the spring completely swept the entire earth, the signboard of Huitong Bank finally hung up.
This new industry, which is completely urgent and is urgent for merchants, immediately attracted heated discussions from countless people and attracted countless gold and silver.
Even though Huitong Bank's exchange fee is a bit harsh, even if Huitong Bank's silver exchange fee is also a bit harsh, this cannot stop the prosperity of the business and the influx of real money.
Because the silver dollar has just been launched, there are still many silver coins in the world that are not exchanged for silver dollars. After these silvers are sent to Huitong Bank, they will be made by the official silver dollars when they are released, so there will naturally be handling fees in the middle.
There are py transactions between Huitong Bank and the Ministry of Revenue, and the exchange fee that the bank originally had to charge, they were like eating the previous and the next ones, and the money made a lot of money.
Even Heshen, who was ruined by the riots of Protestants in Hexi, had signs of cloud dissipation after hearing the numbers Zhao Liang broke out.
That number is really amazing.
Zhao Liang is now in Hexi.
The rebellion in Hexi in the first month was actually a conflict between Protestant believers and their old-fashioned forces who had just been sent back from Tianfang recently.
The Qing Dynasty's official uniforms blatantly favored the old school. Not only did the old school people have a closer connection with it, but the Protestant doctrine was too centralized.
Originally, these believers in Tianfang were very united and concentrated than those of Buddhists. That is, the small and small Hezhuo in the Western Regions were severely suppressed. The Qing army was invincible and under the general situation, everyone dared not show up. Gradually, they formed a certain tacit understanding between each other. The Qing governments were the only ones who were old-school elders who were large gentry members in the Han area, and the latter was very respectful to the government. The Qing governments also needed these believers in Tianfang to check and balance the Han gentry, which formed a balance between each other.
But Protestants are different.
They are emerging forces that have just been sent back from Tianfang. The biggest feature, or the biggest difference between them and the old-school elders, is the concentration of internal power.
The bottom must obey the leaders of the upper level. At the top level, it seems like killing officials and rebelling.
How can this be tolerated by the government?
But the new tutor leader would not wait to die. Before the Qing court could react, he took the lead and killed Yang Shiji, the prefect of Lanzhou who had only brought dozens of yamen runners to the local area to suppress the enemy. Hezhou (now Linxia) took advantage of the victory, seized the city of Hezhou (now Linxia), seized the arms and horses, and killed the officials such as the prefect, Dusi. In addition, the local ethnic conflicts and class conflicts were extremely sharp, which was originally a sectarian struggle between Protestants and the old sects? It soon turned into a joint anti-Qing riot with believers from several other sects.
After hearing the news, Governor Leer Jin of Gansu and Shaanxi Province, he transferred Gong Chuklianer, deputy general of Xining Town, to intercept the return journey from Xunhua, and sent Xunhua civil and military officials to Hezhou to suppress the protesters; while arresting the Protestant leader, he was lifted from Guanchuan to Lanzhou.
But the troops in Lanzhou City are empty? The defenders with less than a thousand people are facing the prosperous Protestant people? They are beaten and cannot be lifted.
Fortunately, the Qing army came quickly in other aspects.
Anyway, before Heshen arrived, Hailancha had already led the Qing army to kill the Protestant people and fled with their heads? Forced to retreat to Hualin Mountain, the old nest.
Heshen's rise is really too fast? He has no foundation in the army, and has no influence at all.
Hailancha and others obviously didn't catch any colds about Heshen.
At the same time, Heshen was going to be suppressed in order to seize the merits - the civil unrest is going to be suppressed. Don’t he take the merits? Will he come in vain? He didn’t listen to Hailancha’s dissuasion? He insisted on asking Hailancha and General Tuqinbao to siege Hualin Mountain in two directions. As a result, the Protestant army in the mountains used favorable terrain to defeat the Qing army, killed General Tuqinbao, and thousands of guerrilla kings below.
This defeat made Heshen dirty and said all his prestige in the army? It also caused resentment from many generals in the army.
Leer Jin was dismissed for his "deep success" and He Kun was also transferred back by Qianlong.
Did Qianlong know Heshen’s ability? He was indeed a talented person in financial management, but an idiot in military affairs.
So he turned around and pulled Li Shiyao up again? He asked him to temporarily take over the position of Gangxi and Shaanxi Governor, responsible for clearing down the remnants of the Protestant Church. As for the previous killing of the prison guards? I forgot them all.
Li Shiyao has been in the prison for less than a year? Then he was "reincarnated" again.
"The cohesion of the bandits is stronger? Not to mention that the Tianfang Sect is already in a group, you can tell if you just look at the Qingshui Sect in front of you."
"Hualin Mountain is the old nest of the Protestant Church. The thief has been in it for a long time. I know its geographical location in detail. In addition, the mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so it is not uncommon to suffer a big defeat in an urgent manner."
"If I were my brother, I would surround the enemy and not fight. First, use the barbarians to control the barbarians, and then call the chieftains of the Salar tribe to lead the troops to fight the vanguard, then transfer some Tibetan soldiers who are accustomed to mountain combat to help suppress the fight, besiege Hualin Mountain, eliminate the water source on the mountain, and burn all the houses and temples. When their morale is exhausted, then hit the enemy hard-"
Zhao Liang was very clear about Heshen's words, but in fact this was the strategy of governor Agui's army in history when he wiped out Protestantism.
A Gui's situation is completely different from Heshen.
First, he had a great prestige in the army, and there was no such situation as Heshen, who was underestimated by generals in the army.
Secondly, he didn't need to prove anything. Now that the older generation of generals had withered, Agui was the most capable person in the Qing Dynasty.
Third, when Heshen arrived, the Qing army was already sure of victory. He had to do something to prove that he did not come in vain. When Ah Gui arrived, the morale of the Qing army was declining, but the general trend was still in the Qing army, so it was not uncommon for Ah Gui to choose a method of being steadfast.
But it's too late to say anything now.
Heshen was determined to be "Maicheng", but it is probably because of this that Helin chose to take the general route?
Two brothers are both literary and military, so how can they echo each other?
Less than a month after Zhao Liang and Heshen's conversation, Hailancha's memorial was delivered to the capital. The process was as Zhao Liang said. However, on a rainy day, the Qing army launched a general attack on the poor and tired Protestant people in the mountains, defeating the enemy in one fell swoop.
Although Su Sisan and others fought to the death, they only fought to the death for a few more people. The Protestant troops were wiped out.
Heshen really wanted to find Zhao Liang to sigh. If he had known that it would be the result, he would have been Zhao Liang as a staff officer that day. Why did he lose such a big man?
However, Zhao Liang was no longer in the capital at this time.
He had gone south along the canal to Suzhou and Hangzhou, and now he has reached the sky of Fujian.
Yes, this year Zhao Liang is going to go to Nanyang with a boat.
Anyway, there is nothing to worry about in China, even if Chang Ergu has a fetus in his belly, he is still very good.
