Section 32: Striving for Merit
The moon bends and shines on Kyushu, how many families are happy and how many are worried? How many high-rise buildings drink fine wine? How many are outcast?
On the 14th day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, Hangzhou City, the moon rises high in the sky, the night is as bright as day, the melodious singing, and three or two pipas, gently float in the void, over thousands of acres, and blow through this piece of green mountains and beautiful waters.
Humanity is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. Really speaking, the beauty of Hangzhou is not inferior to Suzhou. But why has Su been in the front and Hang in the back for a hundred years? Some people say that it is because there is a little less fierce spirit in the city of Hangzhou.
There is some truth to this. There is the tomb of King Yue and the temple of Yu Qian in Hangzhou City, both of whom are glorious national righteous men through the ages, but this is only a dead righteousness at best. Back then, Wei Eunuch brought disaster to the country, the people of China, who dared to go straight and speak righteously? There are only five people in Suzhou. Because of the righteous deeds of these five people and Suzhou Mancheng, Suzhou has taken the lead in the past three hundred years, but it is also a subordinate.
One more day will be the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, the night of the full moon. Tonight's moon, though not yet complete, is as bright as a full moon. The innocent and soft light was sown down layer by layer, but it was like a night snow flying in the quiet void.
Suddenly, three cannons rang out outside Hangzhou, shattering the dream and adding a glorious martyr to the city of Hangzhou!
The snow moon is like a surge, covering the world. Suddenly, the people in the city shouted horses and neighed, shaking Qinghui, but it was two human dragons, 81 marked from Jianqiao, holding high the blue sky and white sun flag, 82 marked from Nanxing Bridge, raising the five-colored flag, scrambling, neighing, and crashing towards Fengshan Gate and Genshan Gate.
Jiang Zhiqing led the death squad all the way and sacrificed his life to run to the front of the 81 standard. I want to be the first to kill Hangzhou City and win the first merit in recovering Hangzhou, not for merit, but also for luck! Just now in the Fenghua test hall, when the death squad was distributing ammunition and dry food, it happened to be seen by Yin Weijun of the Restoration Society, her body trembled with laughter, everyone didn't know what she was laughing at, but she felt that her face was a little hot, and after a while, Yin Weijun said to himself: "It's really interesting, I haven't seen it, before fighting to the death, prepare tomorrow's dry food." On the battlefield, you are still thinking about tomorrow's meal, is there such a death squad in the world? ”
After Yin Weijun finished speaking, he left with a smile, sprinkling a silver bell-like laugh all the way.
This laughter, to Jiang Zhiqing's ears, was thousands of silver needles, piercing the flames in his heart, burning fiercely.
"Tonight, we must be the first to rush into the yamen of the governor of Zhejiang, and ask this woman to take a good look at who is the real revolutionary hero!"
I thought that there would be a bloody battle at Fengshan Gate, but I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived at the city, the Fengshan Gate opened leisurely!
It turned out that the engineering battalion in the city had consciously attached itself to it, and they naturally didn't know that the Liberation Society and the Alliance would have an agreement to be the governor first. Coincidentally, the engineering battalion was divided into two routes, one was led by Chen Di, the former officer of the engineering battalion, and opened the Fengshan Gate, and the other was led by Xu Kangsheng, the officer of the left team, and opened the Genshan Gate.
Without bloodshed, he entered Hangzhou City, and Jiang Zhiqing's heart was naturally extremely happy. He was the first to jump into the city, and while running, he turned back and encouraged everyone: "The Manchu Qing Dynasty has no way, and the Han family should be prosperous!" Gentlemen, recover Zhejiang, fight here! ”
Everyone in the death squad responded in unison, and they all tried harder and harder to run towards the Fu Agency. The road was unexpectedly smooth, and in a blink of an eye, he attacked in front of the governor's yamen. Fang Cai's smooth sailing made everyone feel a little careless, and when they saw that the gate of the mansion was in front of them, a few people rushed over with a shout.
The strange change was born at this time, only to hear the "click" of several machine guns on the wall of the Fu Department, several tongues of fire stretched and contracted, as if an invisible wind blew, and the few people who rushed to the front were like rotten dead branches, falling to the ground at once, and no longer moving.
The death squad members stopped in unison, hid in the shadows, and looked at the side of the Fu Agency. But even though the moon was shining tonight, it was still impossible to see where the gunman was hiding.
Jiang Zhiqing stabbed his body with countless angry daggers in his heart, he screamed angrily, and rushed out bravely, but he didn't run a few steps, he was forced back by a series of bullets, he gasped, his eyes were staring at the front, the rebel officers and soldiers were desperately short of guns and ammunition, even in the death squad, only ten people had guns, and five people had *; Each person was only equipped with ten rounds of ammunition, and a gun battle was impossible, and the only way to break through the Fu Department was to rely on throwing*. But the hidden place of the death squad was two hundred paces away from the gunman, and no matter how strong a man was, it was impossible to throw * into the wall of the Fuzhi Department.
How's that for good?
What else could be better! Jiang Zhiqing gritted his teeth and shouted: "Who wants to drop a bomb with me?" ”
In the two dark places, there were several responses: "I want to go!" ”
Jiang Zhiqing was full of pride in his heart, "I only need two!" Ren Guan, Dong Fang, you two come with me! ”
After that, Jiang Zhiqing untied the short gun on his body, handed it to his teammates on the side, and took two * for himself, one hanging on his belt and one tightly in his hand. He took a long breath, and when he saw that Ren Guan and Dong Fang were also ready, he shouted, "Shoot!" ”
The ten guns in the death squad got up and shot angrily, and in the sound of the gunshots, Jiang Zhiqing flew up and rushed forward!
But at this time, the guns in everyone's hands were still made in Germany with manual bolts. Although the people in this death squad are all hot-blooded children, most of them have not been trained in the military. This one was shot, banging and banging everywhere, but it was the most in the sky. Where is this cover?
Seeing the rebels shooting, and the gunfire on the wall, there was silence for a while. But it only took a moment for the guards to figure out the details of the death squad. The tongue of fire at the head of the wall spit out even more arrogantly, and in just one round, Ren Guan was hit, lying on the ground spitting blood, his hands and feet twitched, and what he saw was that he was dying here.
Jiang Zhiqing and Dong Fang dodged quickly and were not hit, seeing that the friends who were still laughing and talking yesterday were now lying in front of them, the two of them couldn't help but feel blood and anger. That Dong Fang rushed forward with a shout, but it was the courage of the horseman, and he didn't rush out a few steps before he was swept by the machine gun and fell to the ground.
Jiang Zhiqing lay on the ground, only to feel extremely angry, listening to the sparks splashing in front of him, and the anger in his heart became more and more intense, but with Dong Fang's example in front, he couldn't blindly rush forward anymore.
He was a hundred and ten paces away, lying low, waiting, waiting for the gunfire in front of him, and there was a pause for a while.
At this time, the daredevils behind him gradually shot the bullets on their bodies, and as soon as the bullets were finished, they looked at the gate of the Fu Department in a daze, not knowing what to do next. had to wait silently, waiting for Jiang Zhiqing to scare away the guards of the Fu Department; or Gu Naibin led a large army of 81 targets to arrive; Or, the soldier guarding the yamen of the Fu Office suddenly turned it right, and then everyone was happy.
But in the end, it's not any kind.
Jiang Zhiqing lay on the ground, listening to the gunshots in front of him seemed endless, he had the heart to get up and rush forward, but looking at the two corpses in front of him, he was a little hesitant, and there was a villain in his heart to comfort himself, don't make senseless sacrifices; The two thoughts were in full swing in his heart, and Jiang Zhiqing also fell to the ground, motionless, as if he had already been righteous.
He can wait, but others can't. A white shadow in the distance, suddenly like a white horse passing through the gap, flashed him in an instant, fluttering left and right in the rain of bullets, just like the willow facing the wind, that is, the bird threw into the forest, suddenly stopped forty steps in front of the Fu Department, only to see the white shadow's right arm shook violently, followed by the head of the Fu Department's wall, blooming out of two big bullet flowers, this bullet flower, but Jiang Zhiqing is eager to look forward to it!
With a resentful punch on the ground, Jiang Zhiqing jumped up and rushed forward quickly. He had already seen clearly that the person who dropped the bomb just now was none other than Yin Weijun, the heroine of the Liberation Society who laughed at him not long ago!
Unexpectedly, she still fell behind her!
Although Yin Weijun came just right, he was much later than Jiang Zhiqing. Without him, just from Genshan Gate to Fu Bureau, it is by no means as easy as Jiang Zhiqing. Along the way, you must pass through the ordnance station and the flag camp station in Hangzhou City, you know, these two places, one is the place where the governor of Zhejiang Zengyun sent heavy troops to guard, and the other is where the heavy troops in the city are located, and they cannot pass easily.
But Yin Weijun still rushed ahead of Jiang Zhiqing, attacked the front door of the Fu Bureau, threw a bomb to open a passage, and entered the Fu Bureau, and was the first to enter the Yamen of the Fu Bureau!
This Zhejiang, in the final analysis, still depends on the Restoration Society!
As the saying goes, a tree falls and a tree falls. When the monkey is on the tree, it can often be majestic for a while, but once the tree falls, there is nothing to rely on. The same is true of the officers and soldiers who guarded the governor's yamen. When Jiang Zhiqing couldn't attack, he was naturally arrogant. But as soon as Yin Weijun arrived, two * were thrown, and the Qing officers and soldiers really dispersed in a hurry, and most of them were a generation of junjie, who immediately attached themselves to the righteousness on the spot, leading Yin Weijun and Jiang Zhiqing's two death squads to catch Governor Zengyun.
I thought it would be a fierce battle, and even if I won, it would be a miserable victory, but I didn't expect it to be so smooth. Wang Wenqing stood on Chenghuang Mountain, looking at the Manchurian flag camp under the mountain, but after a few shells went down, he obediently erected a white flag. In his heart, there are all kinds of tastes, and he really doesn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.
Could it be that ten years of military training is the result? With such an army, how can it defend its home and country?
He was there to sigh with emotion, when suddenly a horse galloped towards him, shouting all the way: "Emergency military order! Urgent military order! ”。 Immediately the knight went straight to him, only then did he turn over and jump down, take out a letter from his bosom, gasp for breath, and say to Wang Wenqing:
"Ma Lei, the commander of the Eastern Route Army, has led his troops to recover Anqing and enter Nanjing; He wants us to join forces with him within seven days of the recovery of the army. Because of the order of the King of Han, Nanjing will be recovered within half a month! ”
"Where is King Han now?"
"The King of Han has already left the Pingjing Pass, went to meet Wu Luzhen, prepared to enter Beijing by three routes, and fulfilled the ten-year covenant!"
