In the evening, a subordinate suddenly reported that a man asked to see Wang Yongan, and his subordinates naturally refused to let him in. Wang Yongan recalled it carefully, and finally remembered that on the way back to Yangzhou from Shanghi, because Weng Tongyi died of illness, he stopped the boat in Changshu County and went to visit. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info only to encounter a robbery led by the black Tianding Alai on the way, but in the end he was subdued by his own pistol and let him die.

"Let him in." Wang Yongan said, Zhang Tie was afraid that Na Ding Alai would harm people, so he stood not far from Wang Yongan.

After Na Ding Alai entered the door, he took off his black robe, bowed and said, "It's dark, Ding Alai has seen the fourth son." ”

Wang Yongan helped him up, took a closer look at Ding Alai's appearance, and then said with a smile: "Two years ago, I said goodbye in a hurry that night, and I didn't see your appearance clearly when it was dark, but I didn't expect to see the whole picture today." You are good-looking, why should you be that robber? ”

Ding Alai smiled and said: "So I no longer be a robber, I went to the sailor battalion to become a soldier, and now I am the sailor battalion with Halu's side Goshha." "The so-called Goshha is Manchu, and in Chinese it means Ma Ben, and Halu is a Manchu, so his Ma Ben is Goshha.

Wang Yongan nodded and said, "I know about that Halu, but why didn't he participate in the meeting today." ”

Ding Alai said: "Lord Halu drank too much last night, and he didn't sober up all morning, and he only sobered up in the afternoon, but he didn't wake up by himself, but was scared by you, the fourth son." ”

Wang Yongan laughed and said, "It seems that the fight between me and Zhang Xun today has spread very quickly." ”

Ding Alai said: "Our sailor battalion is under the jurisdiction of Zhang Xun, and the sailor battalion is divided into two parts, one is the sailor battalion led by Halu, and the other is the river defense battalion led by Su Xilin. The sailor battalion had boats, but the number was only more than 600 people, and the river defense battalion had no boats, and the number was more than 6,000. ”

After listening to his introduction, Wang Yongan understood the difference, so he nodded and asked, "Why are you looking for me today?" ”

Ding Alai said: "You let me live at the beginning, and today I give you back your life, and we will be cleared." ”

Wang Yongan frowned and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Ding Alai said: "You and Zhang Xun used force this morning, so in the afternoon, Zhang Xun gathered his henchmen and prepared to set fire to your residence in the early hours of tonight, and then lied that there was a fire in early summer." ”

"What?" Wang Yongan was shocked.

Ding Alai said: "Please also ask the fourth prince to leave Nanjing, this adult is anxious, and he was instigated behind his back, so he decided to burn you tonight." My family also said that General Zhang is dizzy now, but his subordinates want to kill you one by one to vent their anger. Fourth son, I think you should leave Nanjing now, General Zhang will calm down after these two days, now everyone is angry, it is inevitable to do something irrational. ”

"You don't want me to see me and Master Zhang clashing?" Wang Yongan said.

Ding Alai nodded and said, "Lord Zhang loves soldiers like a son, although he is reckless, but no one among the soldiers says that he is not good. ”

Wang Yongan sneered twice, shook his head, called all the personnel, and informed everyone of the news that Zhang Xun was preparing to burn the inn, and everyone was surprised. There were still twelve personal guards in the inn, Li Yao and Zhang Tie totaling fourteen, while the other one hundred and thirty-nine were temporarily living in the new army barracks. Seeing that the city gate was about to close, Wang Yongan didn't have time to inform them to escape, and also to avoid too much movement, Wang Yongan left one person to report the news, and the rest immediately left in a hurry.

When they came to the east gate of Nanjing, because the city gate had just been closed, the soldiers guarding the gate stopped everyone. At this time, the officer who watched the city gate attended the daytime meeting, and this man immediately approached Wang Yongan and asked why he was leaving now.

Wang Yongan bluntly said that he and Zhang Xun had a conflict, and it was embarrassing to attend the meeting again tomorrow, so he wanted to return to Jiangbei and let his brother Wang Yongtai come to participate.

The officer seemed to laugh, and said that it was necessary to report to the governor at this time, but if you are in a hurry, it is not that there is no other way, and there are seventy or eighty guards at this city gate, so you must have a good mouth. Wang Yongan knew that he wanted some silver as a reward, so he took out two thousand taels of silver, and the gatekeeper was pleasantly surprised, and asked people to open a small crack in the city gate and let Wang Yongan and the other thirteen people go out of the city.

As soon as we got out of Nanjing, Zhang Tie said that we must travel as far as possible overnight, and cross the river by boat early tomorrow morning. Li Yao asked why he couldn't cross the river now, and Zhang Tie said that the fishermen had always been unable to sail at night, and that few boatmen had sailed at night, and that 13 of us were carrying guns and horses, and that the boatmen would not dare to sail.

Everyone was helpless, but fortunately, one man and one horse did not lack foot strength, so they carried torches and went east along the Yangtze River from Nanjing City overnight. At dawn, everyone arrived at Zhenjiang after Jurong County. After a night of hard work, people were sleepy and tired, but fortunately, there were fishing boats that could cross the river at this time, so they crossed the Yangtze River by boat and arrived in Jiangbei.

That night, the inn caught fire, and it broke out privately, and the guests in the inn panicked after a while, and many people fled only to find that the doors and windows were nailed. Seeing that the fire could not save anything, the fire team stood aside and watched, and the fire burned all night, and by the time it was extinguished, the inn had been reduced to ashes.

Early the next morning, everyone learned that a fire broke out in the inn where Wang Yongan and his party lived, and Wang Yongan, the deputy co-leader of the 24th Mixed Association, did not know whether he was alive or dead. The 139 soldiers of the Guards Battalion who remained in the barracks of the New Army were shocked, and immediately ran to the inn and were about to break in, but the people of the Nanjing City Fire and Water Brigade stepped forward to stop them, saying that the people inside had been burned to death, but there were still remaining fires, and that if you go in now, you will not only not be able to save people, but will also harm yourself.

Shao Yongqin, the leading officer of the guard battalion, was furious, pulled out his pistol and shouted at the water and fire team members: "If you hadn't been able to rescue, how could my son-in-law be burned to death?" Today I will let you bury my son-in-law. All of a sudden, the soldiers of the Guards battalion raised their guns and aimed at the fire and water fighters, only to be so frightened that the fire and water soldiers knelt on the ground and begged bitterly.

"Please, uncle, a ball!" Shao Yongqin said angrily, "If anyone stops us from saving people, and cares about him as the king of heaven, our brother will definitely kill him and leave no piece of armor." ”

At this time, a group of patrol officers ran over, and when they saw this situation, they had to stop the citizens on the side, but they did not dare to save people. Fortunately, someone immediately shouted: "The Governor of Liangjiang has arrived, everyone stop, stop!" The Governor of Liangjiang, Lord Zhang, has arrived! ”

Shao Yongqin listened to the order and had to order to stop, but the soldiers' rifles did not fall down their shoulders, and many of them even pulled bolts against the back of the heads of the fire fighters. In ancient times, the chief had to be buried with the pro-barracks if he had an accident, of course, there was no need to accompany the funeral now, but the fourth young master was very good to the pro-barracks, and this time he also took everyone to Nanjing City to play on the occasion of tolerance, especially everyone understands that if it is not the fourth young master, who will be responsible for retirement and injury placement in the future, if it is not the fourth young master, who can maintain the twenty-four mixed association in the future.

Wang Yongtai can fight well, but it is Wang Yongan who can support the survival of the 24th Mixed Association.
