Chapter 207: Persuasion
Fujian, Changle County, Sanjiangkou.
"Bang... Boom... Bang..."
On the originally wide and quiet sea, a flotilla of more than a dozen ships appeared and was constantly firing artillery shells outside the mouth of the camp of the Fujian Eight Banners Naval Division.
In the camp of the Green Camp Sailor at the mouth of the Sanjiang Estuary in Fuzhou
"Damn Cantonese Yankee, this cannonball doesn't need money, and it is really too deceitful to train troops in front of our camp every day." Deng Xuanyuan, the sailor guard, was looking outside the barracks door and said angrily.
"Alright, second brother. Now that the matter has come to this, why be angry. Lin Yiyou, who was only more than thirty years old and was a guerrilla fighter in the Green Battalion, looked at Deng Xuanyuan, who was constantly complaining, walked over and patted him on the shoulder and said.
"Big brother, I just can't get angry. Where would those Cantonese guys be the opponents of our Fuzhou sailors? As far as their Guangdong Navy Division was established in the past ten years, they can indeed ride on our heads and show off their might in front of our Yingkou. How can I keep me angry? It's all to blame on those pig-like manchurians. Deng Xuanyuan was still unwilling to complain.
"Xuanyuan, this is over. If outsiders hear it, it will bring you great disaster, so don't talk about it. Hearing this, Lin Yiyou immediately drank Deng Xuanyuan, and then paid attention to the surroundings to see if there were any ears of the wall.
Listening to Lin Yiyou's words, Deng Xuanyuan also knew that he had said something he shouldn't have said, so he hurriedly stopped his voice and replied to Lin Yiyou with a fist:
"Yes, big brother. I know. ”
"Big brother, in fact, just a few of us talk about it in private, what's wrong with what the second brother said? Those Eight Banner soldiers who still frolic all day long without training soldiers with Gao Yulu are already angry. Now it is even more obstinate, and it is necessary to lightly advance the enemy, which has caused our Fuzhou Sanjiangkou Eight Banners Naval Division to suffer heavy losses. Yang Yiquan said, the painting in the tent.
"Hey, third brother, what's the use of you being right? You have said that we are the Eight Banners Sailor of Fuzhou Sanjiangkou, and they are the Eight Banners who have the final say, where can we speak in the Green Camp. Deng Xuanyuan sighed and said, helpless in his tone.
"But no, how many people are still in our green camp in the entire Fujian Navy Division today? Since Kangxi conquered Taiwan, our sailors have not been valued much. Yongzheng has been continuously subtracting the share of our green camp since the beginning, after Qianlong came up, who in our Fuzhou Sailor Green Camp can hold a high position? The highest is the guerrilla position of the eldest brother, and the rest are all those corpses in their Eight Banners. Yang Yiquan also sighed.
"That's what makes it popular. Since Kangxi, we have done the most work in the green camp, but we have received the least money and food. In this way, the imperial court will continue to squeeze our green camp, and let their bannermen who only know how to drink and gamble all day long to occupy important positions, leading Gao Chenglu but not working, and they will not accept it if they think about it. Deng Xuanyuan continued to speak.
"Exactly, second brother. If you want to blame, you can only blame our bad life, but the Han people can't be the flag people. If it goes on like this, I think that after coming to the Eight Banners Naval Division of Sanjiangkou in Fuzhou, there will only be Eight Banner soldiers, and there will be nothing to do with the green battalion of our Han people. Yang Yiquan sighed again.
Lin Yiyou is naturally not too stupid to be a guerrilla of this sailor, looking at the yin and yang weirdness of these two sworn brothers here, you answered every word, and he asked: "If you two want to say it, let's just say it!" ”
Hearing this, Deng Xuanyuan and Yang Yiquan glanced at each other.
I saw Deng Xuanyuan say: "Big brother, you know, I'm stupid and impulsive. If you have something to say, you can say it directly, and if you say something wrong, you can forgive me. ”
"Come on, second, third. The three of us have been married for more than a decade. What can't be said, say it! Lin Yiyou said with displeasure on his face.
"Yes, big brother." Deng Xuanyuan replied.
"Big brother, you and I have also been in this Fuzhou Navy Master for more than ten years. I won't talk about the injustices we have suffered in the Green Camp over the years. The point is that in this sailor, any higher position is not based on ability, only on identity. In this way, the imperial court continued to insert their wine bags and rice bags into them every year, and the Eight Banners soldiers who only received money and food and did not do anything. If this continues, sooner or later, there will be no one left in the Eight Banners Water Division. ”
"That's it?" Lin Yiyu asked.
"Big brother, our ship is dilapidated, and the imperial court has not thought about repairing it and building a new one. But the shipyards are constantly being built in Guangdong, and the ships over there come out like dumplings. If this continues, how can we possibly defeat the Guangdong side? ”
Deng Xuanyuan looked unsatisfied and wanted to continue. Lin Yiyou waved his hand and interrupted Deng Xuanyuan, who wanted to continue talking, and said directly: "Second brother, don't talk to me about this and that, just say what you want to say!" ”
"Big brother, I didn't have a choice before, but now I have a choice." Deng Xuanyuan found that he couldn't suppress his excitement at this moment.
"Third child, do you see it that way?" Lin Yiyou turned to Yang Yiquan and asked expressionlessly.
"Big brother, tell you about one thing I've experienced!" Yang Yiquan answered the question that was not what he asked. Seeing that Lin Yiyou didn't have any reaction, he continued:
"Once, when I was traveling in Fuzhou, I met a group of businessmen from North Korea who laughed at me for a while. I was so angry that I got into a fight with them. As a result, I was imprisoned, and they were released instead. When I was finally ransomed, I realized that they were laughing at the ugly braid on my head. Yang Yiquan clenched his fists as he spoke.
"Keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head. This hair ornament does not belong to us Han people, it is a symbol of slavery. The most ridiculous thing is that it was those North Koreans who ransomed me, because I still have the blood of the Ming Han family, and I am someone they admire. ”
When Yang Yiquan said this, he saw Lin Yiyou lightly moved, while Deng Xuanyuan's eyes were red.
"You know what? Big brother, when I came out, I found that I couldn't hate the North Koreans who laughed at me, so I hated myself. They said that we Han people were originally people of the Ming Dynasty, and now Jiuzhou has sunk, although their country is small, but they also miss the kindness of the Ming Dynasty all the time. ”
"If there was no hope before, I would never let my eldest brother die. However, this is no longer the case. After my observation, although this Zhang Liuge of the bandit suppression army is young, he is indeed a great achiever. Big brother, you can consider it. ”
Yang Yiquan actually knelt in front of Lin Yiyou at this moment, and said very tragically:
"This kneeling is not for me, but for future generations to no longer be ridiculed and humiliated by the Manchurians."
Seeing this, Deng Xuan also knelt down and said, "Big brother, I don't understand the big truth, but what the third brother said is really reasonable. I also agree with the third brother's statement, and ask the eldest brother to think about it again. ”
Lin Yiyou looked at the two righteous brothers kneeling on the ground, but he was determined to follow the rebels to rebel, but he couldn't afford to be ruthless enough to tie them up and hand them in.
However, if he was so bold to follow the rebels to rebel, he had to be careful to think about it.
Once this rebellion fails, not only will it give up all the lives it has now, but it will also be said that the Nine Clans will perish. After all, he is no longer young, and he has to weigh things again and again when he thinks about things.
Lin Yiyou had no choice but to help up the two kneeling on the ground, and said helplessly: "You... Ay... Give me a little more time to think about it! ”
