The appearance of Xie Qinggao became the last straw that crushed the will of the Qing army, in fact, the Qing army's will to fight is not even as good as the Heaven and Earth Society, the soldiers of the Heaven and Earth Society are all at the bottom of the society, and there is still a hope of turning over the local master, what does the Qing Army have, they are all soldiers who eat food, and they eat and wait for death, and they really think that everyone has the consciousness of eating the king's Lu for the king's worries, and the scholars who have received Confucian moral education may have one or two who are willing to die for the Qing court, such as the Fengshan County Order, but most of the poor can only wear patches in the green battalion of the Qing soldiers. Let them fight to the death for their country, it is not human nature.

Perhaps the officers of the naval division were under pressure from above and had to oppress the officers and soldiers below, but this pressure always had a limit, and when they saw that the opponent's fort was strong and a ship larger than all their warships appeared behind them, they immediately lost the courage to hold on, and at the same time had a reason to retreat.

Xie Qinggao stood at sea from afar, watching the Qing army be in danger due to the attack on the logistics fleet in the rear, and then the main battleships in front returned, and the logistics fleet fled in chaos, and finally converged between Xie Qinggao's ship and the battery, and then did not counterattack in any direction, but cautiously slipped away from the middle, Xie Qinggao did not take any action, and even stopped the shelling.

Xie Qinggao was welcomed like a hero, and all the soldiers poured out, and they were grateful from the bottom of their hearts for Xie Qinggao's arrival.

But after Xie Qinggao landed on the shore, his face was gloomy, and he seemed to have brought the storm on the sea to the shore.

Fischer organized a line of soldiers to welcome him, and Zhou Lang greeted him at the end of the line with a smiling face.

But Xie Qinggao didn't say a word, just politely arched his hand, and then followed Zhou Lang and walked into the barracks.

Zhou Lang knew that Xie Qinggao had something to say, and Zhou Lang himself had something to say, and the conversation between the two was about the future of the two.

Sitting at the officer's office in the barracks, Zhou Lang first briefly asked Xie Qinggao about some information.

Only then did he know that Xie Qinggao did not return directly from Manila, because before Xie Qinggao set sail, there was no uprising in the Heaven and Earth Society at that time, and the left camp was blocked by the Qing army, so he went out to Manila mainly to buy food.

So when he came back, he also went to Zuoying first, and only after entering the port did he understand the situation during this time, but soon the Qing army sailors came and blocked Xie Qinggao's boat at the dock. Colin organized a defense and successfully blocked the landing of the Qing army, in the process, Xie Qinggao did not help, and the cannon on his ship did not fire a single shot.

After the failure of the Qing army to land on the left camp, it began to move south again. Xie Qinggao couldn't sit idly by this time, he was worried that the Qing army was going south to attack Dagu Port, according to the news sent by Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang was defending Dagu Port. So Xie Qinggao led the ship south, and finally shelled the Qing army, scaring the Qing army away.

In fact, if it weren't for the previous Zuoying Colin to block the landing of the Qing army and give the Qing army a lot of casualties, in fact, the Qing army's attack on Dagu Port would not have been so hasty, and it would have retreated without even trying to land.

As for Xie Qinggao's other things, there is nothing worth mentioning, he went to Manila basically in vain, and the hundreds of loads of grain he bought were of little significance, and he failed to buy weapons from the Spaniards, because the weapons in Manila were all controlled by the colonial authorities, and they refused to sell them.

"Do you have anything else to ask me?"

After understanding the basic situation, Zhou Lang asked.

Xie Qinggao was silent for a moment, and said in a depressed tone:

"Are you really going to rebel?"

Zhou Lang didn't want to hide it anymore, and even replied with a little apology:

"Yes. From the very beginning, I was going to rebel, or I didn't think it was a rebellion, and I came back to fight the Manchus. ”

Xie Qinggao opened his mouth but couldn't speak, not because he was too surprised, but because he suddenly felt that he didn't know Zhou Lang.

And Zhou Lang's attitude was that he planned to rebel from the beginning, and when he recruited himself from India, he actually had this idea, but he had been lying to him.

Angry, yes, wronged, and some, he has always regarded Zhou Lang as a confidant, but he didn't want him to deceive himself from the beginning, and trick himself into coming back and rebelling.

"Why?"

After a long time, Xie Qinggao asked such a sentence, and he really couldn't understand why someone wanted to rebel.

Zhou Lang sighed: "You may not believe me when I say it, I don't want my country and my people to be bullied." ”

Xie Qinggao really didn't believe it: "The Qing Dynasty has millions of soldiers, and there are eight banner iron horses, how can you let the people be bullied!" ”

Zhou Lang asked rhetorically: "What about India?" The country is not big? Not many people? ”

No matter how you look at it, India is a big country, but the current situation is really shocking, and Xie Qinggao is very clear about the current situation of India. After all, he is a well-informed person, and Zhou Lang believes that the example of India should be able to touch his heart.

Xie Qinggao still didn't accept it, but only out of emotion.

It's really hard to believe that some things don't really happen, and who can believe that such a big China will be reduced to the point of being slaughtered by others in a few decades.

"The fragmentation of India has given the Yi people an opportunity to take advantage of, but I will unify the world in the Qing Dynasty, and the golden soup will be forever."

Xie Qinggao was still talking, but his tone was already two points weaker, which is what he said, he had seen the incredible fall of India with his own eyes, and if he was replaced by another person, I am afraid it would not make sense at all.

Zhou Lang continued: "I don't think the golden soup is forever, but it is true that the country is weak and the people are tired. ”

Xie Qing said stiffly: "But Xiyi is thousands of miles away from my Daqing Dynasty, and its country is small and small, so can it cause trouble in Daqing?" ”

Zhou Lang said: "Far away from the ocean? They're already here! The British are based in Bangladesh, with tens of millions of households and 30 million mouths, how can they be called a small country. ”

Xie Qinggao still quibbled: "The Indian emperor did not care about the land of his ancestors and cut Bengal in a war. I, the Holy Lord of the Qing Dynasty, know that the land of my ancestors cannot be abandoned, and every inch of it is not easy to come by. ”

Zhou Lang sighed: "Didn't the land of the Qing Dynasty be snatched from the Ming Dynasty. Qianlong's surname is Aixin Jueluo, not Zhang Wang Li Zhao, China's land can be surnamed Aixin Jueluo, who dares to say that it can't be surnamed England and France. ”

Xie Qinggao said: "The Qing Dynasty is not the world that competes with the Ming Dynasty, it was taken from the hands of the thieves. ”

This is the truth that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been propagating for more than 200 years, the world they got was not taken from the hands of the Ming Dynasty emperor, but from the hands of Li Zicheng, and they also advertised that they had avenged the Ming Dynasty, and they were ordered by heaven, and Dolgon also pretended to worship Chongzhen.

Zhou Lang knew that it was difficult to convince Xie Qinggao from the perspective of the nation and the country, because the concept of the nation and the state was already very weak in the ideology and culture of the Chinese.

He needs to explain in a Chinese way: "Brother Xie, you have read the book, do you know that there is a dynasty that is not easy for thousands of years? It has been more than 150 years since the Manchu Qing Dynasty won the country, and as the old saying goes, there is no hundred years of luck without a hundred years, and now it has passed 50 years, even if the blessings of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are deep, it is time to run out of oil and dry up. ”

Xie Qinggao's expression became even more depressed when he heard this, obviously the weather at the end of the Qing Dynasty made it difficult for people to have confidence, corrupt officials and corrupt officials were rampant, and it may be an exaggeration to say that the people were not living well, but the people's livelihood was withering but it was a reality, and the whole society was full of corruption.

Zhou Lang continued: "Over the years, there have been rebellions everywhere, Qianlong boasted of his martial arts, and that time it was not the official forcing the people to rebel. The national fortunes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are coming to an end, maybe a year or two, maybe one or two decades, but after all, it is fast. Brother Xie, do you know who will win the country this time? ”

Xie Qinggao shook his head blankly.

Zhou Lang guided him: "The world is bound to be chaotic, right?" The Yiren have already arrived in Guangzhou, right? When the world is in chaos, Yiren will inevitably take advantage of the situation, right? If the world is in chaos and people take advantage of it, we will be another India! Brother Xie, the general trend of the world, there will be heroes in two hundred years. The last time Li Chuang subverted the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty took advantage of the situation and set the world. This time, is there more Yi people who take advantage of the chaos to rise up and change the summer with Yi! ”

At this time, Xie Qinggao had been completely confused by Zhou Lang's logic, his mind was full of Qing India, and his mind was full of cholera, the Yi people invaded from the southeast, and the world was starving.

But as soon as he thought of rebellion, he suddenly sobered up, what does the chaos in the world have to do with him, he can't bear the name of a thief.

He still shook his head firmly: "I will not rebel." ”

Zhou Lang knew that this person was completely unconvincing, and sighed.

"Everyone has their own ambitions, and they don't force them to do so. You and I met once, and promised you to be home all over the world. If you want to go, I won't force you to stay, you can go away on that boat and go where you want to go. ”

After Zhou Lang finished speaking, he waved his hand, Xie Qing arched his hand, and walked out with a gloomy face.

When Xie Qinggao landed, he had already experienced a half-day naval battle, and in the evening, he had a long talk with Zhou Lang, and it was even later, Zhou Lang was exhausted, and he fell asleep directly.

Unexpectedly, he woke up the next morning, and found that Fischer was organizing soldiers to carry supplies from the Lucky, if it was just materials, he found that Fischer also asked people to disassemble the cannons on the ship, these are European naval guns made by the East India Company, the power and range are much better than the Manchu cannons, there are fifteen cannons on the Lucky, the largest is twenty-four pounds, the smallest is twelve pounds, and the quality is quite good, with these cannons, the drum port is even more foolproof, Even if it encounters an attack by the Manchu Shimizu Division on this scale, it will be much easier to defend.

But how could Xie Qinggao let Fischer dismantle the cannon on his ship, how could he travel far without the cannon?

Zhou Lang was puzzled, and soon met Xie Qinggao on the ship, and he was also in the cabin to help organize the disassembly.

"Brother Xie, what does this mean?"

Zhou Lang knew that he hadn't persuaded Xie Qinggao yesterday, he had given up convincing this person, this kind of person who had read Confucian classics and received traditional education, once he decided on something, it would be difficult to change it. Zhou Lang was a little worried that Xie Qinggao wanted to leave the cannon behind and then go to sea unarmed, which would be too dangerous.

Xie Qing exhaled and said with a wry smile: "Brother Zhou." I don't want to return to China from overseas and see the Yiren do the world. The capital of Yao, the soil of Shun, the seal of Yu. How can it be fishy! ”

Zhou Lang nodded, and had some new understanding of Xie Qinggao, or the scholars of this era, although their national concept and national concept are very weak, but the cultural arrogance is very strong, how can the land of Yao Shunyu be contaminated with the smell of Yiren. In this regard, the scholars even have some cleanliness habits, just like when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, in the culturally prosperous areas of the south of the Yangtze River, they encountered the most powerful resistance, and the people at the bottom came out to resist, the reason was simply that it was easy to shave their hair. In this society where cultural identity is more important than national and national identity, the emperor can be changed, the government can be changed, but the clothes and hair cannot be changed. Yiyi becomes summer, which is more terrifying than anything else.

Zhou Lang patted Xie Qinggao on the shoulder.

Xie Qinggao added: "Brother Zhou, I don't rebel. I am only anti-Yiren, I am not anti-court! ”

Xie Qinggao's words surprised Zhou Lang, it seems that he still hasn't figured it out, Zhou Lang suddenly feels that he doesn't know enough about the readers of this era.

But he doesn't mind, it's hard to ride a tiger, and now it's not something that Xie Qinggao can decide. He had already stayed, the cannons on the ship were all dismantled, and the Manchus came over, and he didn't fight back, and the result was the same. Now that everyone is really on the same boat, no one can retreat with their whole body, whether they are willing or unwilling, they can only meet it head-on.

All that was to be done was to prepare for the next and more fierce attack of the Manchus. Until there is a new turn for the worse.

As for what this turning point is, Zhou Lang has his own expectations in his heart, if there is no accident, when Harald returns from India, he will gain enough strength to completely change the current weakness. Of course, God does not fulfill people's wishes, he does not dare to simply pin his future on Harald, he must be prepared for unexpected situations at any time.

Zhou Lang currently thinks that the biggest surprise is how much wildfire this small spark he ignited will ignite in Manchu society, and the scope and scale of the Heaven and Earth Revolt are difficult to quantify through numbers. At least the ambition of Chen Zhouquan, the leader of the Heaven and Earth Society, was beyond Zhou Lang's control.

After the news of Zhou Lang's repulsion of the Qing army's sailors was transmitted back to Fengshan County, Chen Zhouquan and his subordinates finally began to hold back their stupid ambitions and began to prepare for the throne.

These news were all brought by Chen Guanghui, who was in the name of Lao Jun, but his tone was to test Zhou Lang's attitude.
