"So many?" Liu Hongkui gasped. According to this, he was not dismissed but promoted: "Great, when shall we go?"

"Now that Zhongchuan is finally stable, we will go to Xining in two days." Zhao Shouhong smiled.

"Great, I'll get the cavalry standard ready right away." Liu Hongkui was so happy that he didn't eat, and immediately ran out to find his cavalry standard.

"Look at how happy he is, he even forgot to eat." Zhao Shouhong laughed.

Shen Ruoxue poked him on the forehead: "What kind of detour did you say? Brother Liu was taken aback. Can't you just say it?"

Zhao Shouhong chuckled: "Our cavalry will not have to worry about it in the future. With this territory, the common people can eat more meat."

"Chairman, don't be too optimistic. The Huns have always looked down on the Hualan people. Now that you have become the Minister of Xining, I am afraid that you have to show some strength to subdue these rebellious Huns." Xie Chi was very worried.

Zhao Shouhong nodded: "I have also considered this point, so I will bring a large army to go. Let's move it with strength to benefit, and use two prongs to ensure that these Huns will be subdued."

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Zhao Shouhong led the team and set off the next day.Following him were Liu Hongkui's cavalry standard and Zhu Daizhen's First Independent Brigade. Wang Lingji, the brigade commander of the Internal Guard Brigade, also led a battalion to accompany him.Such a large army got on the train and headed for Xining mightily.

The train from Zhongchuan Unicom to Xining has long been smooth. The army arrived in Xining in only three days by taking several trains.Qing Shu, the former Minister of Xining who was waiting for the transfer of power, had not received the news, and Zhao Shouhong had already arrived.

Hearing that Zhao Shouhong was coming, Qingshu hurried to the station to greet him.Qingshu was very enthusiastic when he saw Zhao Shouhong. This nobleman from the Jin family who was born with a yellow flag was quite easy-going, and he didn't mean to look down on the Hualan people at all. Otherwise, he would not have continued to be the chief of Qingyuan during the Republic of China in history.

"Master Zhao came so fast, I'm sorry to welcome you." When Zhao Shouhong got out of the car, Qingshu came up to talk to him with a smile.

He is considered to be at the same level as him, but he has extra eyes and feathers. Naturally, such a level can't be too embarrassing for others.Zhao Shouhong also saluted and said, "Your Excellency Qingshu is well, I'm sorry for not notifying you in advance."

"No, no." The plump Qingshu waved his two fleshy palms, and then he moved closer to Zhao Shouhong and said in a low voice, "I didn't have time to thank Mr. Zhao for the job transfer."

"Oh? Thank you?" Zhao Shouhong was very surprised, as if he hadn't done him any favors.

Qingshu smiled and said, "This bitter cold place in Xining is more comfortable than Dedi. I was going to stay here for a few years, but now I can return to the imperial capital ahead of time to enjoy the blessings. It is all thanks to the Lord."

Zhao Shouhong couldn't help but smile, these nobles of the gold family only thought about how to live comfortably and enjoy happiness.The nobles of the Jin family have become such a group of people, and there will be no justice if the Later Jin Empire is not destroyed.

"Your Majesty just sent someone to hold a banquet, and I asked Mr. Zhao to move, and I will take care of you." Qing Shu invited Zhao Shouhong with a smile.

"Your Majesty will naturally obey my orders. Sir Qingshu, please." Zhao Shouhong smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

"Master Zhao, please." Qingshu was in the same posture. Just as Zhao Shouhong wanted to go with Qingshu, a cold snort suddenly came from beside him.

Zhao Shouhong was taken aback for a moment. He followed the sound and found a middle-aged man with a big arm and a round waist, glaring at him.He shaved his head and wore the armor of a general soldier all over his body. He looked very imposing.Zhao Shouhong cupped his hands at him: "I don't know the name of this lord, but what is his job now?"

"I'm dismounting Fuxiang, and now I'm the chief soldier of Xining Dao." The movement of the middle-aged man clasping his hands was quite rough, obviously he was a martial artist who hadn't read much.

Zhao Shouhong said with a smile: "Ma Zongbing seemed to express his feelings just now, is there any dissatisfaction?"

Ma Fuxiang looked at the soldiers of the new army who were getting off the car. He pointed to Liu Hongkui and others behind him and said, "These people's thighs are slightly bent inward. They are obviously people who are used to horseback. I conclude that they are cavalry. Master Zhao led Some cavalry came to Xining, I'm afraid their minds are not pure."

Zhao Shouhong was startled, this Ma Fuxiang was absolutely ignorant of martial arts, his mind was quite meticulous, and he could tell the clue from the shape of the cavalry's legs.But now Qingshu has not handed over to him, once he reveals his true intention, he will definitely be criticized.

Zhao Shouhong thought about the reason quickly, and he smiled and waved: "These are the standard horses of the Zhongchuan New Army cavalry. Zongbing Ma should know that the Sichuan horses are short and far inferior to the Qingyuan horses. I Next time I plan to buy some war horses for the cavalry to exchange for mounts, which can be regarded as increasing the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the new army."

Ma Fuxiang originally thought that Zhao Shouhong came with cavalry, and planned to use this to control the strength of his men.Hearing Zhao Shouhong's explanation now, his face suddenly softened, but unfortunately he didn't know that the guess just now was really accurate.

"Since Lord Qingshu treats guests, won't Zongbing Ma go with us?" Zhao Shouhong asked with a smile. This Ma Fuxiang is a powerful figure in the Xining army. If he can be controlled, he will definitely save a lot of trouble.

"You literati drink politely. It's really not enjoyable enough. My old horse is better to go home and drink." Ma Fuxiang waved his hand and wanted to leave, but Qingshu seemed to have known his temper for a long time, so he didn't show any displeasure about it. .

Zhao Shouhong smiled and said, "That's good. I'll drink with Ma Zongbing today. How about we all use a big bowl to drink without getting drunk?"

"Oh? Master Zhao is willing to reward you?" Ma Fuxiang looked at the young civil servant in surprise. He couldn't imagine that the other party would dare to propose a drink with him: "Okay, I, Ma Fuxiang, will make you my friend today, and have a drink with Master Zhao." try."

Qingshu was also very surprised by Zhao Shouhong's actions, but he didn't think deeply: "In this case, please hurry up, both of you, let's go to the restaurant for a while."

3 Fifty Chapters: Guning Yi Rebellion

The restaurant where Qingshu treats guests looks quite dilapidated. If it is not even a third-rate restaurant in Shudu, it is already the best restaurant in the backcountry of Xining, so it is no wonder that Qingshu is unwilling to live here.Climbing up the stairs, Zhao Shouhong quickly came to the second floor, which was already reserved by Qingshu, and there were no other guests.

In the lobby on the second floor, the officials who were greeted at the train station just now were already present. When they saw Zhao Shouhong, Qingshu and Ma Fuxiang, the three biggest officials in Xining coming together, they all stood up to greet them.Several people were seated in the banquet, Qingshu first raised his glass and said with a smile: "Today I welcome Mr. Zhao, and at the same time, I congratulate you on taking over as Minister of Xining. From now on, you will all work under Mr. Zhao, but you must do your best. ah."

"It should be so." The people below agreed one after another.

"Come here, let's have this drink. It can be regarded as a welcome for Mr. Zhao, and it can be regarded as my farewell wine." Qingshu raised his glass.

"Thank you, my lord." Everyone drank up their glasses of wine one after another.

Zhao Shouhong stood up again and said with a smile: "You are all heroes in Xining, and you have devoted a lot of effort to the stability of Xining and the prosperity of Qingyuan. From now on, Zhao will rely on you a lot. I will do my best to respect you."

Zhao Shouhong raised his glass and wanted to drink it, but was stopped by Ma Fuxiang.He got up and said: "What you said just now is good, Mr. Zhao wants to drink with me, but now you only care about drinking from this small cup, how can you enjoy yourself."

Ma Fuxiang's words made everyone's faces turn pale.He refuted Zhao Shouhong's face in such a way that once the two sides clashed, the officials present would probably bear some responsibility.What everyone didn't expect was that Zhao Shouhong was not angry at all. He put down his glass and said, "Ma Zongbing is right, come and change the bowl for me to pour wine."

Hearing Zhao Shouhong's words, Ma Fuxiang's eyes lit up. He is not a reckless person. The reason why he said this today is actually just a strategy.Ma Fuxiang had long heard that under Zhao Shouhong's rule, people lived and worked in peace and contentment regardless of ethnicity. Even people from the Meng and Fan tribes had the opportunity to be officials, and no one would discriminate against them. This made Ma Fuxiang curious.

As a member of the Yi ethnic group, Ma Fuxiang has been stared at in official circles, and many officials of the Jin ethnic group have great prejudice against him.In fact, we can’t blame others for this. The reason is that 50 years ago, a large-scale Yimin uprising broke out in the two provinces of Xigao, known as the Guning Hui Rebellion in history.

The Yi nationality is actually the offspring of the Persians and Hualan people who intermarried in the Tang Dynasty. They believe in Islam.The Hualan Yi nationality has a living pattern of large dispersal and small concentration. Because they live in the same place with the Hualan nationality, their living customs are different, which leads to deepening conflicts between the two sides.

In some areas, large-scale armed fights between Yi and Hua occurred from time to time, but because the imperial government’s ethnic policy was biased, and local officials were often Hualan people, it was common for them to favor Hualan people and discriminate against Muslims. Clan people often have grievances that cannot be redressed.

The emperors of all dynasties in history still gave preferential treatment to the Yi people, and the Yi people could also take the civil and military examinations to become officials, although these positions were usually not high.However, from [-] onwards, the Hou Jin government made a sharp turn and promulgated a law that discriminated against the Yi people quite seriously.For example, Yimin in Plateau Province and Xiyu Province had to be exiled to Jiaozhi and Guizhou Provinces for crimes of theft and robbery, and sometimes they were sentenced to lifelong shackles, which was heavier than other Hualan people who committed similar crimes. much.

Because of this kind of oppression and the local officials' partiality became more and more obvious, the conflict between Yihua and Yihua finally reached an irreconcilable situation.

During the Guning Period of the Later Jin Dynasty, due to the costly war against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the southeast, the burden on the plateau province was severely increased, and the actual land tax increased to one and a half times of the regular land tax.In fact, in the plateau area, there were two agricultural riots before the Yimin uprising.

The first time was in the sixth year of Xianxing, the peasants north of the Weihe River in Weinan County.It was a method of passive resistance similar to workers' strikes, which was quickly dismantled by the government.

The second time was in the 11th year of Xianxing. Yang Shenghua, a native of Liqiao, Lintong County, called on the villagers to rebel and uprising. Several large towns north of the Weihe River participated.Because of this uprising, everyone in the big family was in danger, and the plateau regiment practice was rampant.

Tuan Lian ran rampant in the village, robbed and killed people, and finally angered the Yi people.In the spring of the first year of Guning, under the direct impetus of the Taiping Army's Fu Wang Chen Decai Department and the Nian Army's entry into the Plateau Province, the Yimin people from all over Guanzhong responded one after another.Its main leaders were He Mingtang and Ren Wu, who formed the *** battalion in a short period of time and appointed 18 marshals including Yu Yanlu.The Iraqi army surrounded Xi'an for more than a year, and also surrounded Tongguan, threatening the throat of the intersection of the three provinces and the area along the west side of the peak.

After learning of this situation, the imperial court immediately sent heavy troops to suppress it. However, due to the weak combat effectiveness of the Hou Jin army and the subsequent years of drought, the people were struggling to survive, resulting in a larger uprising.These people did not have a correct uprising program, and did not know what to do except resist oppression, so their uprising was doomed to fail.

After resisting the Jin army, those Yi people began to turn their butcher knives on the Han people who often fought with them, which led to large-scale massacres.It wasn't until Zuo Zongtang returned to Xi'an after suppressing the Western Nien Army and suppressed the Yimin uprising wantonly that the situation in Plateau Province was stabilized.This rebellion lasted for ten years. During this time, more than 500 million Hualan people were massacred, and Yimin also lost more than [-] million people under Zuo Zongtang's suppression.

After this battle, the Yi people were even more discriminated against by the Hualan and Houjin people.In order to prevent the Yi people from rebelling again, the imperial court scattered and moved these Yi people to various places in the northwest, leaving only more than 2 people in Xi'an.Ma Fuxiang's ancestors came to Qingyuan because of the rebellion. Since he became an official, Ma Fuxiang has been bullied by officials of various ethnic groups.If it weren't for the Gengzi Kingdom Rebellion, he persisted in fighting against the Eight-Nation Allied Forces after his brother's death, and achieved considerable results.

Ma Fuxiang is a delicate person, but with the suppression in the officialdom, he has become a little cynical, and he has become more and more disgusted with officials Joaquin.Before Zhao Shouhong's arrival, every time a Huajin official arrived, he would give him a slap in the face, usually with sarcasm.Because everyone knows Ma Fuxiang's temper, and no one will argue with him, Qingshu has long been used to it.

Zhao Shouhong came to work today, and everyone was waiting to see how Ma Fuxiang would deal with Zhao Shouhong, but they didn't expect to come so soon.This time Ma Fuxiang is not so much a shaming, but a temptation.Unexpectedly, Zhao Shouhong didn't feel embarrassed at all, and didn't even show any displeasure. He completely regarded Ma Fuxiang as a colleague, not a discriminating Yi nationality.

Chapter 351 Cavalry Expansion

Zhao Shouhong knew that the most critical person in charge of Qingyuan this time was Ma Fuxiang, the Xining general in front of him.Only by convincing this man can his plan be carried out.Therefore, when someone handed over the big bowl, Zhao Shouhong took it without hesitation. He filled the bowl with wine himself, held up the bowl and said to Ma Fuxiang, "Mr. I'll do it first as a respect." After he finished speaking, he raised his head and poured a bowl of wine directly into his stomach.

"Lord Zhao is a good drinker." The people present cheered, this kind of drinking is rare among military generals, let alone he is only a civil servant.

"Good drinker, since I agreed to fight wine with my lord, naturally I can't let my lord suffer. Bring the wine, and I will have a big bowl with my lord." Ma Fuxiang greeted the servant.
