Chapter 513: Fight, Townsmen

Indeed, what is such an emperor?

"Excellencies, we do not have an emperor, and in fact it is because the King of Spain is trying to rule us with his tyranny that we are compelled to resist.

We rebelled for fifty years.

We are still fighting against the army of the King of Spain, we are fighting on land, we are fighting on the sea, we are on the battlefields of almost all over the world, and as long as the King of Spain does not give up his evil intentions, we will never lay down our arms, even if we have to fight for a hundred years. And now we think we are doing well, fifty years ago we were nothing more than a bunch of poor little merchants who had to send gold and silver to his greedy mouth in the king's blackmail, and now we have warships all over the world.

We don't need to endure his oppression anymore, we don't need to fear him anymore.

Instead, he needs to fear us.

You see, we don't have a monarch, but we're just as well, even better off than we were when we had a monarch. ”

Song Ke said proudly.

Of course, the Spanish army had just captured their fortress of Breda, and they were actually relying on the help of the British, and there were a bunch of Protestant troops supporting them, so there was no need to say that their war of independence was only part of the European war against the Habsburgs.

Just as Americans generally don't say that without Louis's self-sacrifice, their Washington would basically be hanged.

Qian Qianyi made a gesture of please.

He Gang immediately took Song Ke out of this hall.

The old villagers inside looked at each other.

"These barbarians have no kings and no fathers, this naturally can't be learned, but everyone, are we against Your Majesty?"

The water is too cold to say.

He also wore a reserved beard when he spoke.

The elders immediately laughed.

"That is, how have we ever opposed Your Majesty, we are all loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, how can we oppose Your Majesty, Your Majesty is our king, we are all Your Majesty's ministers, this monarch and ministers are not sloppy."

An old countryman said.

"Yes, we have never opposed Your Majesty, but the traitors deceived the saints, we can't sit back and watch Taizu's country be troubled by traitors like this, so if we want to follow the example of the sages to eliminate traitors for the country, even if it is like Xu Du, it is also to protect the Ming Dynasty, but extraordinary things must be done in extraordinary times, but our heart can show the sun and the moon!"

The other said with great righteousness.

Then those loyal and righteous men expressed their hearts.

Everyone is loyal.

Everyone is not against the emperor, on the contrary, everyone here is fiercely loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and it is precisely because they are fiercely loyal that they can't watch Yang Xin's traitorous ministers mess with the world. Even if Your Majesty is deceived by traitors, everyone must adhere to justice, just like those ministers, you must not give in to those traitors, and His Majesty the Emperor will always recognize the time of loyalty and traitor.

Of course, these are the words that say.

But if we really want to talk about armed confrontation, this still has to be discussed.

After all, everyone is used to talking about it, saying that it is one thing to do is another, and the scene depicted by Song Ke is indeed very tempting, but Xu Du has already shown it before this.

These scenes are indeed good, and what gentry would not want that?

When I think about it, I feel itchy.

During this time, many gentry have gone to Xu Du to visit, and after coming back, they all woke up like a dream for a long time, and some people even wrote poems to express their praise for the world of Datong, so that Datong sold more and more hot.

Although the book has long been banned.

But just like Yang Xin's original design, this kind of thing is spread faster and faster the more it is banned, and now all booksellers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are printing and selling like a carnival and selling better and better, so that various printing workshops have begun to arrange orders. And it is said that it has been circulated abroad, you must know that one of the important commodities exported by the Ming Dynasty is books, so popular books have already entered the export list, and they have landed in the country last year.

It is said that the gentry looked at this book, looked at the descriptions of the areas controlled by Xudu, and now knew that even the barbarians had done this, it was really to the point of itching.

But......

You have to face Yang Xin!

His sword-like sword!

The atmosphere cooled down suddenly, and the Shang Fang sword appeared in front of many people's eyes.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I really don't understand, if you said that it was understandable that you were afraid of him before, after all, we didn't have the force to fight against it, but now we have tens of thousands of elites, so no matter how strong Yang Xin is, he was frightened by a few small cannons in Jingkou and ran to the mast.

And we have countless cannons.

Huishan Fort even has an eighteen-pound cannon, not to mention the armor on his body, even the city wall can collapse.

He is indeed brave, but now it is no longer the era when generals rely on bravery to run rampant, thousands of turtledove salvos, any fierce general is dead, dozens of cannons are salvo, the resurrection of the overlord is just a cannonball, in front of the eighteen-pound cannon, the gods and all living beings are equal.

Yang Xin?

It's just a little demon.

We have a bunch of weapons that can kill him.

So why are we still afraid of him? ”

Xu Xiake said speechlessly.

No one really answered him, but he was afraid!

"Ladies and gentlemen, the younger generation has a plan."

A young man next to him said.

"Public, please!"

Qian Qianyi said hurriedly.

This is Zhou Zongyi, a member of Haining, who is the main general of the Chang'an Army in Zhejiang.

This regimental training is mainly supported by the gentry of Jiaxing, Huzhou, and Hangzhou, among which the gentry of Jiaxing are the mainstay, and the Chang'an army is in control because of Qian Shisheng's involvement, and Qian Shijin, who was dismissed at home.

He is the former prefect of the daimyo and the younger brother of Qian Shisheng, and Yang Xin is a blood feud, as for the subordinate generals, they are all of the younger generation, including his son Qian Zhan, a member of the Fu Society, and Zhang Pu can be regarded as friends of life and death, and then Sun Zhang, Zhou Zongyi, etc. These are also the main forces in Jiaxing to resist the Qing Dynasty in the original history, Zhou Zongyi and his younger brother Zhou Qiqi were really killed in the street battle with the Qing army, we must be clear about the fact that at this time, they did not even have the courage to resist Yang Xin, and it was difficult to expect them to fight to the end in the face of the Qing army.

This creates this awkward situation.

At present, among the Susong gentry, the young Zhuang faction is the most resolute in resisting by force, and they are basically those who can be called national heroes later.

Yang Dudu was also very helpless.

After all, if there is Huang Shu in front of him, he can naturally toss as much as he wants, but there are a bunch of Shen Tingyang in front of him, which makes him always have a feeling that he is a villain, but in fact, with the role he is currently playing, it is indeed the kind of Dong Zhuo and others who are put in the drama, and even now there are people who write operas like this to scold him.

Feng Menglong wrote.

And he specially rehearsed a show to play him as a harlequin, which is said to be extremely popular, and I have to say that the Su Song gentry always like to entertain themselves so much.

"Princesses, first of all, we must not have anything to do with the word rebellion."

Zhou Zongyi said.

The elders nodded their heads.

"Then we can't move the current officials of the imperial court in various places, and they have no ability to hinder our affairs, including the officers and soldiers of the guards in various places, this is easy to think about, it is nothing more than spending some silver.

Of course, it would be better if they could help us.

However, according to the estimation of the younger generation, they should not have the courage, and if they had the courage, they would not let Yang Xin run rampant so far, not to mention that Governor Mao is still a close confidant of Wei Biao. So as long as they are there, they can't say that we rebelled, we can't learn from Xu Du, they drove away local officials and even executed them, this is not right, we can't do this, we are still under the governance of officials sent by the imperial court.

Second, you can't enter Zhaoyi City.

As you can see from the previous engagement at Fort Lakebrook, it is still difficult for us to storm the militia area.

Then let's not attack.

At Huishan Fort they concentrated their forces to block Yang Xin, while the Red Turban Army was defended in other places, but it was necessary to let the Huwei Army feint to attack the militia area, not requiring them to attack, but to ask them to continue to fight sporadically with the Red Turban Army in the west to force it unable to support Yang Xin.

Third, send someone to immediately contact the people in the capital to petition His Majesty, saying that the place is panicked, and he does not dare to let Yang Xin cross Wuxi, and it is a big deal to spend some silver to buy Wei Gelding, buy other people in the palace, and even those eunuchs, so that they can persuade His Majesty to issue an order that Yang Xin must not continue to advance. As long as His Majesty's holy decree is sent to the front line, then we will be innocent even if we have already fought with Yang Xin, if Yang Xin still dares to attack, it will be his disrespect for the decree, and we will be loyal to him even if we fight with him to the end. ”

Zhou Zongyi said.

"But I'm afraid we won't be able to stop Yang Xin!"

An old countryman who had seen Yang Xin's methods said very entangledly.

"The Chang Sheng Army, the Chang Jie Army, the Chang An Army, and the three armies add up to nearly 20,000 people, and there are more than 100 cannons alone, not counting those cannons in Huishan Fort and even 18 catties of giant cannons, can't they stop Yang Xin's 12,000 people?"

Zhou Zongyi was stunned.

Obviously, he still didn't know Yang Xin too well.

The main reason is that his home is in Haining, and Yang Xin has not been to him several times in this area.

The hesitation of the old villagers told him very clearly that it was yes.

How unconfident they are!

Although they did already have a musket team with all turtledoves, countless cannons, and even cannonballs weighing eighteen catties, which could hit seven or eight miles away at most, and still have a certain accuracy at a distance of two miles, the problem was that all those who were confident that they could defeat Yang Xin failed in the end. This demon-like man always uses various ways to collapse to become the final victor, and now so many years have passed, these old villagers now have a fear of Yang, and as long as they think of facing Yang Xin, their heartbeat immediately increases.

There are too many failures, and they are all afraid of losing.

"Then add this!"

He Gang walked in from outside, holding a brand new musket, but it was still a wheel, but a long spear......

"What is this?"

Zhou Zongyi was stunned.

"A magic weapon that can kill the Yang thief!"

He Gang stroked the barrel of the gun and said confidently.
