After the loss of Xiamen City, the Tang Guomo Department in Longyan quickly went north, and quickly swept away Zhangping, Yong'an, Datian and a few other states and counties where civil unrest broke out, as for other states and counties were even more hopeless, at the same time, Jiangxi Yue Zhaolin also quickly attacked Pucheng, Jianyang, Jian'ou and other counties in one fell swoop, and smoothly attacked Ningde, Ningde is the north gate of Fuzhou, as early as the eve of Zang Zhiping's rebellion, this place was arranged by Zang Zhiping to guard the strength of a mixed brigade, it could have fought with Yue Zhaolin, but unfortunately after the loss of Xiamen, The origami mixed brigade was quickly transferred out of Ningde and headed for Fuzhou for defense, so the prefectures and counties around Ningde did not spend much effort to let Yue Zhaolin recover, and then forced Fuzhou.

In order to fully mobilize the revolutionary belief and fighting will of the defenders and the people, he set up more than 10 supervision teams with the Kunming revolutionaries as the core, inspecting the city of Fujian.

Seeing this, Yue Zhaolin immediately set up a cannon, and made a riot in Fuzhou City, and the cannonballs rained down in Fuzhou City, and the city was in a panic, and the Supervision Team immediately went to the street to kill, but all those who panicked and screamed were killed, but the cannonballs did not kill a few people, but many people fed the Inspector Team's ghost head knife, and for a while, the entire Fujian City was silent, and everyone was in danger.

The head of the Fujian branch also unceremoniously immediately ordered the mixed brigade to fire a counterattack, after a burst of bombardment between the two sides, the casualties on both sides were withdrawn, after Yue Zhaolin retreated, the head of the Fujian branch laughed and said: "People say that this Yue Zhaolin is a Beiyang warrior, today I see nothing more than that, there are 300,000 people in Fuzhou City, there are 300,000 revolutionary comrades, what is a mere Yue Zhaolin!" ”

The commander of the mixed brigade said to the head of the Fujian branch with some surprise: "My lord, do you want to make the whole ......?"

The head of the Fujian branch laughed and said: "Yes, the revolutionary masses vow to live and die together with Fuzhou City!" ”

The commander of the mixed brigade said: "My lord, this is a bit too much, and it is not an invasion of the enemy country, why let the people do it to this extent?" ”

The head of the Fujian branch glared at him and said, "This is a great revolution!" This is a glorious protector of the Dharma, what else can we support if the people don't support us? As for the enemy country you mentioned, if it really hits, we can still be officials, we can still have fun, and we can revolutionize, but when Beiyang comes, we can only get out of the way! ”

Since ancient times, China has been a country that pays attention to loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, and the inheritance from generation to generation has penetrated into the blood and bone marrow of the nation, whether you receive Western-style education or traditional teaching, as long as you are on this land, it is impossible to touch this ancient and tough thing, so when the commander of the mixed brigade listened to the head of the Fujian branch, the whole person was instantly bad. The head of the Fujian branch couldn't help but distort his face when he looked at him, and sighed lightly: "Revolutionaries must establish a view of the overall situation of the revolution and not be tainted by the rotten feudal dross!" I hope you will be impressed! ”

After a while, the brigade commander seemed to have experienced a long number of worlds before he said slowly: "It is Lao Tzu's duty to defend Fuzhou, and he can spare this life, but please don't let the entire people of Fuzhou burn the jade, they are not revolutionaries but just small people, and they work hard for three meals for the family every day, and they should not lead the war to the innocent people." ”

The face of the head of the Fujian branch suddenly became ugly, and he said: "Mr. Zhongshan is like the sun, illuminating the sky over the whole of China, bringing light and warmth to the Chinese people. You're still a brigade commander, and you don't have any consciousness at all! I don't think you need to bring this soldier. After saying that, with a wave of his hand, the fierce and vicious supervising team rushed over to arrest the brigade commander and others, this is the headquarters of the entire city defense and the brigade headquarters of the mixed brigade, surrounded by the brigade commander's cronies and horses, after seeing those supervising teams rushing over with bad intentions, these people also took out their guns and pointed them outside, the head of the Fujian branch laughed slightly when he saw this situation, and said: "What kind of misunderstanding is this, put it away, put it away!" The infighting in the family, wouldn't it make Yue Zhaolin outside laugh and lose his big teeth? ”

The brigade commander said coldly: "Please let your people go back, my people will naturally not be rude." ”

The head of the Fujian branch raised his hand and waved, laughing loudly: "You all step down for me!" The overseers who rushed over hurriedly retreated to the side, and the brigade commander also asked these cronies around him to put away their guns, who knew that as soon as these people collected their weapons, those overseers opened fire, and blood was dripping like peach petals floating everywhere, and the flesh and bones were broken and scattered everywhere like sand. The head of the Fujian branch walked over with a smile, came to the brigade commander's side, and said: "I am the revolutionary, you don't listen to me, so that you have fallen into such a field today, you are really to blame!" After speaking, he kicked up, crushed the head of the brigade commander, and said: "Let the brothers take over all the important departments and raise the banner, people are in the city, and the city is disgraced!" Let that Yue Zhaolin see our strength! ”

Soon, a curtain fell at the gate of Fujian City, on which it was written that people are in the city, and the city is embarrassed by eight eye-catching characters.

Outside the city, Yue Zhaolin couldn't help but sneer when he saw it: "It's really stupid! Without the constraints of the people, let you see the power of Lao Tzu! Immediately ordered the artillery team to start shelling Fuzhou City day and night, anyway, they brought a lot of shells, and they fled all the way, and they didn't use many shells, just poured all of them into this Fuzhou City, and let Chang Zhenbang see his true ability.

Cannonballs poured down like rain on the city of Fuzhou, inside and under the city, countless defenders and civilians died in the artillery fire, and the overseers took the opportunity to kill people everywhere and seize goods, and the loss of Fuzhou City was not less than 10 million this night

Regarding Yue Zhaolin's shelling, the head of the Fujian branch was furious, knocked on the table and said angrily: "Damn Yue Zhaolin, it is not a pity to dare to treat the revolutionary masses so contemptuously!" Lao Si immediately organized the revolutionary masses to go out of the city and fight a decisive battle with Yue Zhaolin, and Lao Tzu did not believe in this evil! So many people can't eliminate him Yue Zhaolin. ”

With the order of the branch chief, countless ragged people were driven out like cattle and sheep, some of them may have been born rich and noble, but for the revolution, they were robbed of poverty and whiteness in a few days, even if they did this, they were not let go, the revolutionaries had to dedicate their last lives, the so-called revolution was probably to give to those people from the beginning to the end, watching others eat their own, wear their own, use their own, even the women under them are their own, but in the end they let themselves die to be cannon fodder, is this a revolution? Such a revolution, don't do it, so they began to riot, since the revolution completely took away what they were born into, then they don't care, anyway, there is nothing, if you resist, you will not gain anything? Thinking of this, these people took the lead in resisting, although those people did not lose a lot like them, but they also lost a lot of things, such as daughters, such as daughters-in-law, in short, a lot of precious things were also taken away, anyway, it is better to give up a hand if there is nothing to love, so there are more and more people shouting slogans at the city gate to resist.

Seeing this, those overseers immediately decided to kill a group of people, who knew that these people would immediately come up again, in fact, these people also understood that since they were all dead, then let those who hurt themselves die if they don't look like people and ghosts don't look like ghosts! Perhaps with this belief, these people flocked to the Overseers without fear of death, and the Overseers used knives, they used their teeth, they used their arms, in short, as long as it could bring pain to these people, they didn't care. In an instant, the Warlords were annihilated in the crowd.

After the commander of the Fujian detachment received the news, Tie Qing asked the mixed brigade defending the city to start an armed crusade, who knew that after the soldiers received the news, they refused one after another, and even threatened to surrender rather than shoot at the people.

After receiving the news of the conflict in the city, Yue Zhaolin's department immediately marched under the cover of artillery, and successfully exceeded Yue Zhaolin's imagination, everywhere was fighting, no one cared about them entering the city at all, but many people rushed out and took them around to encircle and suppress the revolutionary and chaotic party, and those defenders saw Yue Zhaolin's department, they immediately went anyway, and cooperated with the people and Yue Zhaolin's department angrily rushed to the revolutionary branch of the Fujian branch chief, the Fujian branch chief couldn't dodge, and was beaten to death by everyone and torn to pieces. As for the things in the branch, they were looted, and the people who were loyal to the revolutionary party in the past were also looted and burned, and the angry crowd tortured these people who fought for the tiger like wolves and tigers, even Yue Zhaolin could not control the situation in Fuzhou City, and even feared that the city gate would catch fire and affect the pond fish, so he immediately led his troops to order those troops to go out of Fuzhou City, while reorganizing, while cultivating, until three days later, the killing gas in Fuzhou City was almost consumed, and he led his troops into the city, and looked at the ruins in Fuzhou City, with blood stains everywhere, There are signs of fire everywhere, and there are scenes after looting and killing, giving people a sense of desolation and despair.

Yue Zhaolin seemed to regret entering the city a little, but at this time, the people were probably tired of burning and looting, and they recovered as before, becoming the rising and sunset of the rising and sunset, Yue Zhaolin entered the Marshal's Mansion, which was almost in ruins, cleaned up a little, and then issued a notice to the people, as for the more important work of suppressing bandits, in fact, he didn't need to do it, the people of Fuzhou had already done everything for her, I believe that in the past three days, anyone with a little revolutionary tendency will be dried scum left.

Quanzhou to Fuzhou is not far away, fast horses whip less than a day away, Zang Zhiping received a telegram from Fuzhou, immediately returned to Fuzhou, but on the way to rescue Fuzhou in Xianyou was attacked by Wang Guilin, of course, such an attack is nothing to Zang Zhiping, this is Fujian, is the place where he became famous, every inch of Fujian mountains and rivers land he knows well, so that after encountering Wang Guilin's attack, it is a Jedi counterattack, not only repelled Wang Guilin's department, but also took the opportunity to defeat the pursuing Lu Yongxiang department in one fell swoop. After winning these two battles, when Zang Zhiping led the army back to the outside of Fuzhou, Fuzhou City had already been lost, and the banner of the rebel army was raised. Zang Zhiping outside the city couldn't help but sigh, he knew that when the banner of the rebel army was raised in Fuzhou City, the so-called Dharma protector also came to an end like a farce.

At this time, Tang Guomo's department, the guard brigade, Wang Xifeng's department, and Wu Hongchang's department also almost arrived outside Fuzhou City, looking at the rebel army that surrounded him, Zang Zhiping looked up to the sky and sighed, turned over and dismounted, walked to the front of the two armies, and said loudly: "Marshal Protector of the Law, Governor of the Fujian Protector Army, Zang Zhiping invited the patrol envoy of Guangdong, Jiangxi and Fujian, and the Governor of the Protector Army, Chang Zhenbang, to speak in front of the battle!" ”

Chang Zhenbang heard Zang Zhiping's request, and was about to set off, Zhang Xiaoliu said: "Adults think twice, people say that they are poor and don't chase!" Now that Zang Zhiping is at the end of his rope, be careful of this person's deception! Zhao Laosi said disapprerovingly: "Shut up!" It's just talking, what's there to be afraid of! If he dares to do it, it will come from crushing his eggs! Wang Dewang said: "The fourth brother can't say that, how does the adult treat Zang Zhiping?" Everyone knows it! is really benevolent and righteous, and how does Zang Zhiping repay the kindness of adults? Turning to the rebels and rebelling is really a heinous and heinous crime, and it is not very dangerous for an adult to meet with such a person. So I don't agree. ”

"Zang Zhiping's generation is a masterpiece, and he is by no means such a humble villain." Chang Zhenbang waved his hand to stop everyone's persuasion, and Tang Guomo's eyes were surprised.

Chang Zhenbang appeared in front of the two armies in military uniform, and the army immediately shouted, the sound of 'rebellion' was earth-shattering, and Zang Zhiping's eyes flashed with complicated feelings. If you win the Dharma protection movement, will there be a sound of 'Dharma protector' like a mountain?

Time can't be reversed, everything can only be delivered with possibilities and possibilities, Zang Zhiping is a relatively clean military uniform, and the continuous and long-term battles make him look a lot haggard, and he looks a little shorter than when he first saw him. When he saw Chang Zhenbang appear in front of him like jade, he still smiled very happily, it seemed that Chang Zhenbang's arrival made him unload a very heavy burden, indeed he was too tired, for this damn protector, he was already busy, how many days have not had a good sleep, now is the time to rest.

"Your Excellency, you're finally here." Zang Zhiping said happily.

Chang Zhenbang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's really hard for you these days!" ”

When Zang Zhiping heard this, he couldn't help but say with sour eyes: "Zhiping, I'm sorry, my lord!" Don't ......"

Chang Zhenbang said: "You are not sorry for me, everything you have done is just for your own ideals, I won't blame you!" It's just that you shouldn't involve those innocent Fuzhou people for your own ideals, so that you lose their lives! ”

"Thank you for your understanding!" Zang Zhiping was very moved and guilty when he heard this, and said: "My lord, please also calm your anger, Zhiping heard about the matter in Fuzhou, and Zhiping felt extremely helpless and guilty about this, it was Zhiping who recognized that people were unladylike, and these innocent people who were killed died!" After his death, he was willing to sacrifice all his family property to atone for his sins. I hope you will agree! ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "You have no will, how can this official have a reason to excuse himself!" Your wife and children will be taken care of by the official, and your subordinate brothers and officials will make proper arrangements, and as for Fuzhou, the official will write to Premier Duan and the eldest to exempt them from paying taxes for three years, so go peacefully and with peace of mind! ”

Zang Zhiping glanced at Chang Zhenbang gratefully, turned to Fuzhou City, knelt down slowly, and after kneeling three times and knocking nine times, he pulled out his own gun from his waist, Wang Dewang and others saw him pull out a gun, and immediately nervously raised their guns to turn Zang Zhiping. Chang Zhenbang walked a few steps and blocked behind Zang Zhiping, if Wang Dewang and others fired, seventy percent would hit Chang Zhenbang, just when everyone hesitated, only to hear a bang, Zang Zhiping's body rushed forward, and the whole person fell in a pool of blood.

After Zang Zhiping fell, some of his people also knelt on the ground, crying bitterly towards Zang Zhiping, he Zang Zhiping may be rebellious in the eyes of others, but in their hearts he is a brother who asks for warmth, a commander who has won a hundred battles, leading them to defeat Lu Yongxiang in three battles and three victories in Quanzhou, Xianyou vs. Wang Guilin, and a surprise attack on Lu Yongxiang, which is really a great achievement, and now the god of war brother in their hearts has passed away, how can they not cry out loud?

Chang Zhenbang sighed, let Zang Zhiping be carried down to be buried thickly, and at the same time ordered the relevant functions of the Fuzhou Provincial Government to be temporarily moved to Quanzhou, according to the official position of the government, the governor was changed to the governor Hu Ruilin, who was formulated by Feng Guozhang, continued to serve, except for a few officials who died in the Zang Zhiping Rebellion were served by the heroes of the rebellion, the rest of the candidates remained unchanged.

Tang Guomo was qualified to serve as the military envoy of Tingzhang, Lu Yongxiang was the military envoy of Fuzhou, Wang Guilin was the envoy of Ningde Town, and Wang Xifeng was the military envoy of Quanxing, but he was given the position of Quanxing town envoy under his repeated requests. Wang Dewang is the commander of Fujian's urban defense. Xiamen turned into a naval city, with Yang Shuzhuang as the garrison of Xiamen, and at the same time opened Guangzhou Bay to the Guangdong fleet, Lin Guogeng was the commander of the Guangzhou Bay Fort, and Lin Baoyi was the commander-in-chief of the fleet. At the same time, the Mawei area of Fuzhou was set aside as an enclave of Xiamen, and the shipbuilding-related affairs were all under the dispatch of the Ministry of Navy, and the navy subsidized Fuzhou's military expenditure of 30,000 yuan per month.

The day after the pacification of Fujian, Feng Guozhang issued a proclamation demanding that the northern and southern armies should be finished militarily before all parties were brought to an end, and that the unification of the two armies should be carried out in terms of administrative affairs. Duan Qirui angrily announced that he would leave the wilderness, and soon Lu Yongxiang said that he was sick and left Fuzhou for Guangzhou, and an important decision related to the country was thrown in front of Chang Zhenbang.
