Chapter 102 Chengdu Fengyun (2)

Chengdu is not small, even if the combat strength of 2,000 people is strong, one fights ten, but it is not easy to manage the huge Chengdu Cheng. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yang Dongfang smiled and said: "So, it's up to you to take this, I'll just take it, it's your business to defend the city." ”

"My business?" Hong Ming was puzzled for a while, and Yang Dongfang said again: "There is no problem in conquering Chengdu City now, the question is how many members you have developed in Chengdu for so long, and once we take the city, how many people can you get to support us." ”

As soon as he heard this, it was really his own business, Hong Ming began to calculate something in his heart, and at the same time, an invisible pressure fell heavily on his shoulders.

Yang Dongfang was not in a hurry, waiting for Hong Ming to give an answer, and see what his results were when he came to Chengdu for more than half a year and spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

In the end, Hong Ming opened his mouth: "Chief, these days, the people of our military intelligence department have quietly grown to more than 1,000 people in Chengdu, and I still have a roster there, I will show it to you later."

In addition to our people in the military intelligence department, we also got in touch with other members of the Tiandi Society, including Sunmen, Shengmen, Hongmen, Huimen, Zimen, Luomen, Famen, and Yumen, and they also agreed, and once our New People's Army came to Chengdu, they would definitely respond. Other Jianghu families, such as the Huanglin faction, the Qingcheng faction, the Green Forest faction, the Yu family, the Minghai family, the Nanquan family, the Jin family, etc., will show the situation. ”

"Hmm!" Yang Dongfang's heart was greatly touched, and he didn't say much, now that he has learned to restrain his emotions, Hong Ming is also afraid that Yang Dongfang will not believe it, so he said:

"Chief, Chengdu City is actually divided into two parts, the inner city and the outer suburbs, there are 200,000 people in the urban area, and there are more than 300,000 people in the suburbs. If the eight doors start an incident, at least 50,000 strong can be pulled. ”

"So what you mean, as long as I control the city, those people outside the city will support us."

Hong Ming nodded yes, Yang Dongfang said with satisfaction: "Okay, you go to contact the people of the Military Intelligence Department, when I was in Xuzhou, let half of the personnel still lurk, you have so many people here, then leave a quarter and still don't move, the rest are all gathered, don't tell them the purpose of the action, and after our army takes Chengdu City tonight, you ask them to inform other branches of the Heaven and Earth Society and the martial arts heroes." ”

"Yes!"

Lei Li was popular with Yang Dongfang's style of governing the New People's Army, Hong Ming quickly went out to gather everyone, and then selected the most loyal old members who were brought down from the Iron Mountain back then, and assigned them to several other courtyards to serve as a guide for the evening action.

At night, the four gates of Chengdu City were closed, and there was basically a curfew in the city, except for the brothels, and the guards began to carry bamboo sticks and gongs to beat along the streets.

"Boom! - Boom! Boom! ”

"It's dry, watch out for the candles! Close the door to prevent theft, go to bed early and get up early! ”

On the day of the third watch, the husband walked in groups of two, strolling on the stone paved street, and as he walked all the way, he didn't know when a team walked out of the street, the number was not less than five hundred, and the old man hurriedly dragged the young man to hide under the eaves, nodded and said:

"The military master is good, the military master walks slowly."

After the team left, the young man scratched his head and said in confusion: "Daddy Cai, where are these officers and soldiers going for one night, looking at them a little strange, unlike those city guards who carry chickens and catch birds. ”

The old man lectured a lot of things, and then continued to knock on the bamboo pole.

turned around and said softly: "Gua Wazi, don't be troublesome, these soldiers are holding muskets in their hands, they walk with a tiger's style, with a murderous aura, they must be fierce soldiers, maybe it's the Hunan army transferred from another place by Lord Luo, they are not patrols, there must be something, if you want to live longer, you should not see it, you know." ”

"Hmm!" The young husband's heart trembled, and his heart was about to jump out, and he couldn't afford to provoke the army who had killed people, so he kept his head down and followed the old husband.

This group of troops wearing Hunan army uniforms kept walking towards the south gate, and in the quiet street, no one else had seen it except for the husband, of course, when they saw it, they thought it was the Hunan army, and they didn't think much about other aspects.

Soon the group arrived at the south entrance hall, where there was a total of one battalion of soldiers and horses, still in three shifts, and those who were not on duty all went back to their homes in the city to sleep, and there were only about 200 people left at night, and they were still scattered.

When they saw the Hunan army coming over, their waists immediately straightened.

"Who is on duty tonight, Lord Luo has an urgent order to take us over."

"Yes! My lord! ”

The person standing guard saw that the person who spoke was dressed in a general's robe, and he didn't dare to ask more questions, so he took him to the city tower and then reported.

Dressed in the general's official robe, Hu Gan, the former commander of the 8th battalion, took most of the people up to the women's wall, followed closely behind this person, and soon entered the city tower.

"This lord is. I don't know what to do! ”

The Qing general on duty in the city tower had a lower official rank than the general, and looked Hu Gan up and down, although he had doubts, he still maintained the compliment of his subordinates to his superiors.

Seeing the refined muskets in the hands of the soldiers behind Hu Gan, he dared to promise that he had never thought of such a good gun, and he had seen the rifles of various units of the Hunan army.

But I didn't see such a sophisticated weapon, and I couldn't understand it for a while, and I secretly guessed that it was the Huai army in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

Without waiting for him to figure it out, Hu Gan took the butt of his gun and slammed it directly on the guard general's chin, knocking the person to the ground and said: "After investigating that there is someone derelict in duty at the south gate, the governor specially ordered our battalion to take over the defense of the south city. ”

"What!"

The guard wanted to say something, but Hu Gan hit the back of the head with the butt of his gun, I don't know whether he was dead or alive, anyway, there was no sound, and the remaining Qing soldiers were panicked, some held knives and guns, and some were at a loss.

"Lay down your arms, or you will be punished as a thief." Hu Gan said that the officers and soldiers of the 8th Battalion all pointed their guns at these Qing soldiers, looking at the black hole and pointing their guns at themselves.

Where did these Qing soldiers dare to resist, hesitated, glanced at each other, tried to find something to rely on, and finally thought that they would be regarded as thieves, so they had to put down their weapons and were all locked in the rest room.

After seizing the south gate with fake chaos, Hu Gan asked people to open the city gate and let the people from the military intelligence department go out of the city to contact the Tiandihui branch on the outskirts of the city, and Hu Gan took out half of the men and horses and headed towards the city.

At the same time, Ren Tianming, the former commander of the 5th Battalion, led his men to the East Gate, the situation at the East Gate was a bit complicated, this was a water and land city gate, and the Jinjiang River that crossed it came out of the East Gate, so the Qing soldiers in the guard hall were Luo Bingzhang's descendants, and they didn't believe that Luo Bingzhang would give such an order, so they refused at the moment, but his biggest mistake was to let the 5th Battalion approach them.

"Fire!"

Ren Tianming inherited Yang Jiangfang's capable style, he spoke less directly, and if he didn't agree, he would do it.

"Puff puff ..!"

The musket battalion had short knives at their waists, and they stabbed directly at the nearby Qing troops.

"Not good! Killed! ”

"Hit!"

"Bang bang bang...!"
