Chapter 18: China Is Great (3)

Bai Wen has made some money these days by pulling coal and other things for various families, but most of it has been saved up to prepare for his younger brother to go to the new school. Now after the news that foreigners are approaching Langfang again, the prices in the capital are rising three times a day, and if it goes on like this, let alone saving money for the younger brother to go to school, I am afraid that I will have to save money outside.

So he also thought of a lot of ways out, but his brother was a member of the Sushun party back then, so even if he was in the bannerman, even if he was born in Wu Zhuangyuan, he was not treated well by the bigwigs at the top. Now there is an opportunity in front of me, even if I have to sell my life, as long as I can make more money, it is not a matter of care.

When Bai Wen walked to the west of the city, he saw that the intersection was surrounded by water on the third floor and the outer three floors. He had always disliked being involved in this, and was about to get around when he heard someone inside yelling hoarsely, and then he couldn't move his footsteps anymore.

In the crowd, a high platform was erected. There was a burly young man on the high platform who blushed, and shouted at the people in the audience: "The foreigner is here, but no matter what clan you belong to, and whether you have money in your family or not, they just want to rob money, rob girls, you have also seen the tragic situation of those people who came from Tianjin, ah, the dozens of Zhuangzi along the way were burned to the ground by the people of Xie Yang, and the old and young masters in the village were all killed." The beasts didn't even spare the baby in their swaddling clothes, you see."

Saying this, the young man distributed a few photos to the people around him, and the tragic situation on them made everyone who saw it feel cold in their hearts, and then gave birth to a great sense of grief and indignation.

"Although China is big, we have no way out!" Tears welled up in the young man's eyes, "Behind us is the city of Beijing!" There is no way back! Are you going to let those foreign devils rush into the city and kill us, our parents, our wives and children, just like in those pictures? ”

"Can't!" Bai Wen thought of his younger brothers and sisters, and couldn't help but yell.

Bai Wen was born as a serious martial artist, and his martial arts are also well-known among the banner people. This roar was really like a thunderclap in the ground, and the sound shook all over the world. The people around him were all silenced by his voice, and the audience fell silent all of a sudden. He looked left and right, and his heart was worried, and he didn't know what to do, when the people shouted out in unison. "Kill foreign devils!"

"Kill foreign devils!"

"Kill foreigners, kill foreigners, kill more foreigners!"

The roars of the crowd grew louder and louder, and the sound of explosions spread from this street intersection to all sides, and soon the whole city was full of "Kill foreigners!" slogan.

The people of this era are really miserable, natural disasters, **, the harsh taxes of the imperial court, and the people who are already forced to live happily. There was a flame burning in their hearts for a long time, but it was pressed in their hearts on weekdays. However, now that the foreigners are here, whether they are Western big noses or Oriental dwarfs, they are all the same beasts, so that everyone has to live a life without it. The outbreak of long-suppressed anger surprised everyone;

This is the soil of heroes, and the people on this soil are both docile and kind, but also courageous. From Daze Township, Chen Sheng roared: "The prince will be Xiangning, there is a kind of it!" Since then, as long as it is the moment of mourning, there are always countless people with lofty ideals who have emerged, and used their blood to make unyielding shouts and accusations to the world.

This is the reason why this great country has always stood tall among the nations of the world. Every few hundred years, when the world collapses, these heroes will take out those silverfish, those corrupt officials, and all the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods that hinder people's stable life, and put them on the altar, and exchange endless blood for a better tomorrow.

Bai Wen felt a fire burning in his heart, he shouted loudly with the people around him, chanted together, and wept together, those dissatisfaction with the miserable life was rooted in the hearts of each of them, so that they could resonate at special moments and make them do things that they would not normally dare to do.

After a long time, Bai Wen came to his senses, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Today's matter, if you don't do it, you will be suppressed by the imperial court, he thought about it, and ran home. Anyway, take care of yourself first.

"Mr. Xu, what do you mean by that?" Zai Yi said with an unkind face: "It's okay not to hand over Seymour to the imperial court, and now you are inciting these people to make trouble, don't you want to regret it?" ”

"Lord Wang," Xu Yuanhua looked like a fairy and smiled: "Everyone says that the people are afraid of the court, and the court is afraid of foreigners, but why are foreigners still afraid of the people?" ”

"Because there are too many people?" Zai Yi said uncertainly: "But it is easy for these people to agitate, and it is not easy to make them obedient." ”

"It's because there are so many people." Xu Yuanhua enjoys his current status. represents a huge force, and everywhere you go, you have to be treated as a guest, and that's not all. Every time he was sent out to do diplomatic affairs, he could force the other party to bow his head. This sense of accomplishment made him, the former leader of the cult, feel very satisfied. Life has reached this point, and there are probably no regrets.

"Like other Boxers, it is not good to just stir up the people without restraining them. But don't you know what our Black Dragon Society is capable of? Xu Yuanhua said: "Now that the army of foreigners has arrived in Langfang, it will be driven to the capital in two days at most, but the army of the imperial court can't be counted on now, and we have to rely on these people." ”

"There are a lot of people, but they can stop the foreigners?" Zaiyi is now in a hurry to go to the doctor, grabbing a straw and holding on.

"Of course, it's not enough to rely on the people alone," Xu Yuanhua gently shook the goose feather fan in his hand, this slow appearance made Zai Yi want to beat him up, but he still felt good about himself, "So it's up to us to lead them." My Black Dragon King said: The sea sails by the helmsman, and you have to do a good job of this helmsman. ”

Well, Zai Yi is in a better mood. But

"Then why do you want to block the gates and build fortifications in the city?"

"Lord Wang," Xu Yuanhua didn't shake his fan anymore, "The army of foreigners has nearly 100,000, and our Black Dragon will be full of calculations, even if everyone pulls it out, it is less than half of the people, even if you add those people, you can't stop them." So you can only prepare for the worst. ”

"What's the worst?" Zai Yi was shocked, "What's the worst plan?" ”
