The already chaotic order in the capital completely collapsed with the entry of foreign soldiers into the city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The scattered soldiers and regiments began to frantically attack every house, looting everything they saw. The jewelry, the clothes, and even the collar around the child's neck are all included.

The flames were blazing, and the cries and screams were endless, but it was impossible to investigate whether the fire was artificially cast or caused by cannonballs. The screams and cries of the women, the angry roars of the men, and the smug laughter mingled together, inflicting harm on both the inside and outside, and at the same time befell the heads of the inhabitants, and the disaster was unstoppable.

Duanwang Chengyi's brothers had already cleaned up, and the housekeeper at home cried that the senior brother of the Flying Tiger Regiment, who originally set up an altar in Duanwang's mansion, took the lead in robbing with a group of people. Thanks to the fact that there were many fighting masters in the guards of the Duanwang Mansion, plus there were guns in the mansion, the loss was not big, but the Flying Tiger Regiment set a fire, and now the soldiers are in chaos, this fire is very difficult to save, and the palace is afraid that it will suffer a lot of losses this time.

Cheng Yi scolded: "These inhuman things, even I, the rice host, are robbed!" I knew it was such a bunch of things, so I wouldn't have raised them. So far, he has lifted a stone and smashed himself in the foot, but this time it is a joke. ”

Baylor said: "Second brother, now is not the time to talk about this. Now that the foreign soldiers have broken the outer city, and the inner city will not be able to hold it for long, we have to do one thing now, to protect it. ”

Cheng Lan said: "Protection? Why? We don't have many soldiers in our hands, how can we protect them? In my opinion, we have to protect our families first. ”

"Confused, the family has their own protection, you don't have to worry about me. The second brother is in charge of the Tiger God Camp and the Shenji Camp, and at this time, if you want to say that there are no soldiers, is this tenable? It's not the old lady who protects us, it's our nephew, as long as he doesn't fall, we have a chance. Besides, the former we made trouble for so once, Lafayette felt awkward, if he didn't take advantage of the security to hurry back to find it, we would not have a good life in the future. ”

Cheng Yi also understood, "Big brother is right, let's go, let's go to the palace to protect the three of us." Also, call Shang Ziliang, he is a military aircraft, we have to count on him at this time, with him to protect us, the Queen Mother is not good to be harsh on us. Send someone to find Lao Dao (Xu Tong's nickname) again......"

"The old way is enough, he was scolded and beaten by the Flying Tiger Regiment on the street, and he went back to the old house in a fit of anger, I am afraid that he will not be able to get out. Leave him alone, Ben Danei, at most call King Zhuang. ”

The inner palace is very quiet, it seems that the attack of foreigners is like a dream, and now the dream has woken up, the people are still there, the country is stable, and the country and the people are safe. However, the ministers who fell to their knees in front of him reminded Cixi that the crisis had not passed, and that everything had just begun.

The speed of the loss of the outer city even exceeded Cixi's expectations, she was also a little panicked, and urgently summoned the military plane, but except for Han Rong, only Ganglie and Zhao Shu came, and the rest never arrived. It's not that other military planes won't come, but the route may not be clear, and if you want to come, you may not come.

Cixi looked at Han Rong, "How is the situation of the rear army now?" ”

"Rear Army...... has fled. Han Rong was a little ashamed of his reciprocal reciprocation, Dong Wuxing walked out of Changyi Gate, put his gun all the way, and went west. However, there are still some men and horses in the city, and the minions can put them in order and let them follow them. ”

Cheng Yi said: "The slaves can also gather some soldiers from the Shenji Battalion and the Tiger God Battalion, and a thousand eight people can still be made up." ”

"A thousand people, what can you do?" Han Rong hated Chengyi very much in his heart, so he simply made trouble at this time. "There are many foreigners, Tieler's Cossack horse team is very powerful, more ruthless than our Heilongjiang horse team, if you catch up, just more than 1,000 people, can you withstand it? Duanwang was the main battle at the beginning, and there must be a way at this time. ”

Cheng Yi saw Han Rong squeezing him, even if there was a fire, he couldn't send it out, and his face was as angry as a pig's liver, and after a while, he said, "This ...... At this time, the minions had no choice but to open a white flag and surrender. ”

"Surrender?" Cixi glanced at him, "This is what you are thinking." ”

"We can ask for an armistice first, and then make peace, the conditions can be discussed, King Duan is in charge of affairs and yamen, and he should go to this matter."

Cheng Yi shook his head, "Lafayette, the slave is incompetent and can't handle this matter." Ask Lafayette to issue an edict and let King Qing go to the negotiations. The slave reluctantly resigned from his errand with the affairs of the yamen. ”

"You just quit the errand of the affairs yamen, will you be fine?" Cixi snorted, "If you want me to see, you shouldn't have any errands!" Even you, the king of the county, are not worthy! Now is not the time to talk about this, if you have a way, you have to give it a try. Han Rong, you go and contact Lao Qing and ask him to do it with the foreigners, and the lives of me and the emperor's mother are on the spot. From now on, Lao Qing is fully responsible for the affairs of the yamen, and all the conditions can be discussed, and he only needs to sign, and I admit it. ”

"Minions understand!"

Han Rong kowtowed and retreated, Cixi looked at the rest of the people again, "You guys kneel down first, wait for me to call." No one is allowed to go home without me. ”

These people retired one after another, and Cixi stretched out his hand to call Li Lianying, "Lianying help me comb my hair, emperor, you go and change your clothes." ”

Emperor Tianyou was stunned, "Dear father, didn't you say that King Qing should go through the negotiations?" If the negotiation can be done, maybe we don't have to go......"

Cixi shook his head, "Silly brother, the soldiers are coming to the city, even if you want to make peace at this time, people must be willing." Han Rong and I sang a double reed, he went outside and ordered the cart to get off and send us out of the palace. As for the negotiations, we have to go out of the city first, is it possible that the foreigners will be caught alive and then come to talk to us? ”

Only then did Emperor Tianyou know that he was too simple, and he once again showed his timidity. Hurriedly got up and took off his hat and robe, and changed into a half-new Xuan-colored lake crepe gown, a torn horse coat outside, and a six-piece tile buckled on his head, which was very inconspicuous. Empress Dowager Cixi, at this time, had already untied the flag head, combed it slightly, three plates and two twists, and combed it into a falling horse bun with Han makeup.

She smiled generously, "How is it, I don't look like a Han old lady now?" I really didn't expect that from the declaration of war to today, I would have to wear this dress for such a few days. The ancestors have spirits, bless our mother and son safely, and when I come back, no one will want to live! ”

While talking, he changed into the flat shoes of the Han people, supported by Li Lianying, and walked around the ground twice, and he was already used to it. The eldest brother Pu Jun was led by Cui Yugui, and he also changed into a Han dress, he didn't know how to be afraid when he was young, but he thought it was fun. Raise your arms and move your legs, still dishonest.

Cixi looked at Cui Yugui and asked, "How are your people preparing?" ”

"Fifty fast gunners, follow the car, make sure nothing goes wrong."

"Are they obedient?"

"Lafayette, don't worry, it's all brought out by the slaves, and I promise that they will listen to whatever I say."

"What do you say, and they all listen? Okay, pass on my words, let them stay and guard the Forbidden City, people have to be in the city, and they are not allowed to take half a step back! ”

Cui Yugui was stunned for a moment, staying at this time is equivalent to sending him to death, these fifty people are his henchmen, and they are all his strength, why did they just throw it away? Cixi snorted, "There is no one to take care of our palace, should you leave?" What's the matter, you dare not listen to me? ”

"The minions don't dare, so the minions will go and order them."

"Sharp!"

Li Lianying knew that Cui Yugui and the eldest brother were too close, and when King Duan was in the palace before, Cui Yugui's fast gunners did not show up, and they had already committed the taboo of mercy. This time to escape, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no accidents on the road, and Cixi obviously does not want to have more forces around him that are not easy to control, and abolish this force first.

When Cixi set off, the inner city had not yet been lost, and the coalition forces had never imagined that the Jin soldiers would be so brave, and their determination to escape from the battle, and the courage to abandon their armor, they were really beyond their reach.

The siege of the castle, which had been expected for several months, ended so quickly. As a result, the original military deployment was completely ineffective, and its own rhythm was disrupted. Between the various troops, it became a competition, comparing who would enter the city first, who would raise the flag of their country first, and who would be able to grab more loot, the scene became a mess, and the inner city was not difficult to defend in a short time, so Cixi would not be too flustered.

In addition to the dignified and two mansions, there were also King Zhuang and Han Rong, Ganglie, and Zhao Shu, as well as King Qing's son-in-law, Prince Wairouran, and Na Yantu, who was proficient in wrestling skills. The third and fourth grids and Concubine Jin and Cixi were in the same car, and the eldest brother was in the same car, he originally liked to drive, and he was excited to do this errand, but he felt excited and not embarrassed.

Cixi looked at King Qing who was waiting outside the door, "Lao Qing, your daughters are by my side, make sure they are okay, if there is mine, they will be wronged." It depends on your means, remember, everything is based on the retreat of foreign soldiers, and the conditions and so on are easy to discuss. ”

King Qing also knew that he was taking his daughter as a hostage, so he didn't break it, but said: "Lafayette rest assured, the slave will definitely do his best and die." While the foreign soldiers had not blocked all the gates, Lafayette still asked to leave quickly. ”

The corps responsible for escorting is the Wuwei Right Army. At the beginning of the offensive and defensive battle in the capital, the right army did not participate in the battle, at this time Cao Zhongkun and Li Xiushan two battalions, as the guards, the road was opened by Duan Xiangyan battalion, and the last two battalions were sent to the palace. Cixi has learned that among these soldiers, the last two battalions are from the Shandong Road Protection Army, and their combat effectiveness is not enough, and their expectations are not high, so they only hope that the other battalions can play a role and save their lives, especially Han Rong's more than 180 carts, which are loaded with treasures hidden in the palace, and there must be no accidents.

Due to the preparation in the palace, these big cars are protected by the right army, so it is easy to walk, and Sangege said, "Jingli wants to find a car now, but it is actually very difficult." This is all Galeries Lafayette's blessing, otherwise, you can't find a car. The rear army was almost the same, and they had seized all the carts in the city, and they could not even find the cattle pulling the carts. ”

Cixi thought secretly: This is Zhao Guanhou's foresight again, if he hadn't reminded Han Rong to get out of the car first, he would definitely not be so calm when he walked today. Of course, people can go, but those treasures and savings over the years are afraid that they will be looted by foreigners. Now, the silver has been buried in the ground, and the treasures are loaded on the car, even if there is a loss, it will not be too big, and this experience is his credit.

The national disaster is a good general. At this time, I couldn't help but regret a little, I shouldn't have sent him to Hexi to fight for the sake of the dignity of the heavenly family, and lost a tiger minister in vain. I only hope that God will open his eyes, he can leave the battlefield alive, and also save a little vitality for Dajin.

On the streets and on the road, there are all refugees, and Cixi can't reveal his identity, otherwise he won't even be able to walk. The car was moving very slowly, and at this moment, a burst of gunshots like bursting beans suddenly sounded in front, and the two Gege and Concubine Jin were just foreigners, and their faces were colorless with fright. Cixi was calmer than them, thinking about the car and whispering outside, "What's going on?" ”

"It's okay, Duan Xiangyan's soldiers, shooting in front is scary. As soon as they heard the gunshots, the people were scared away, and the car walked much faster. ”

Cixi also felt that when the car walked, it was really not like a snail like Fang Cai, the speed was much faster, only to hear someone shouting: "This is the convoy of our Wuwei rear army, whoever dares to stop it, will cut it without discussion." As soon as the people heard that it was the rear army of the military guard, they all hid far away, but it was easy to let the car go, and they were very happy, and they were sad again, it turned out that Dong Wuxing's rear army had a status in the hearts of the people, and he had been conniving at the bandits for so long, which was really too much of an afterthought.

When the car came out of the city gate, she gently opened a curtain and looked back, but when she saw the towering city wall, the city tower, and the fort were all available, but under the attack of foreign soldiers, she fell overnight, and the sadness in her heart came from it, and she only thought: I leave today, but I don't know, when will I come back. When I came back, on this city, whether the Yellow Dragon Flag was still flying, and what was the surname in this world.

Just as she was about to lower the curtain, she saw the yellow dragon flag on the head of the city slowly falling, and a white flag was laboriously rising.

Outside Zhangyi's door, Dong Wuxing urged his subordinates, "Hurry up, hurry up!" Hands and feet are sharp, we can't delay, let the foreigners catch up, and we'll be all done. ”

His rear army looted in the capital, and even the treasury of the household department was robbed, and from top to bottom, he made a lot of money. Dong Wuxing alone earned no less than one million dollars. How many famous giant rooms were robbed by it overnight.

He relied on the protection of the rear army, and the court would never dare to punish him, otherwise the rear army would mutiny as a whole. Moreover, he had already thought that after transporting the silver out, he would transport it to his hometown and protect it himself. In the name of protecting the driver, the robbery is in fact, and when the time comes, the holy car is surrounded by rear troops, and he will not dare to attack him. If it's a big deal, you will be dismissed and never used, and with this huge amount of money, it is enough to spend your old age in peace.

Li Laizhong accompanied the horse on the side, although his income was less than Dong Wuxing, but it was more than 200,000 yuan. What he wanted was to rely on this money as military salary, return to Shaanxi, and be willing to recruit troops and buy horses in the name of running regimental training, and within a few years he could raise troops and rebel. When the time comes, the two palaces will be detained in Shaanxi, and the Son of Heaven will be coerced, and the princes can be ordered.

The two of them have their own thoughts, and the troops under them are all confidants, and many of them are generals of the rear army, and all of them act as lifu at this time. The driver shook the whip desperately, drove the livestock, and a red and blue-topped military attache pushed the cart behind. Everyone's savings, plus the money stolen by the officers and soldiers themselves, the convoy occupied a long way, and the dust rose high.

Dong Wuxing looked at the surrounding terrain and saw that there were tall green gauze tents on both sides, he was an old soldier, and he only looked creepy, "What the hell is this place?" Hurry up and send someone to check if there is an ambush. ”

Li Laizhong said: "Don't worry, the foreigners are chasing the two palaces now, and no one cares about ambushing us, if what I think is not bad, the two palaces have left Beijing at this time out of Deshengmen, and went to Yulin." Foreigners are well-informed and must know about it, and they will chase them, and besides, foreigners don't like to engage in this kind of ambush. Now that time is urgent, I don't have the time to send scouts to search such a large area. ”

Dong Wuxing nodded, raised his hand, and seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, there was a crisp sound in the air. It was as if a soldier had whipped a whip, or someone had thrown a cannon to mark it. Li Laizhong was stunned for a moment, but he only felt a cold on his face, reached out and touched it, his hands were red and white, and then looked at Dong Wuxing, he had fallen off the horse straight upright, blood flowed into his temples, and a bullet had already pierced his vital point.

Li Laizhong was shocked, there were no foreign soldiers around, who fired the gun, just when he was about to ride his horse and gallop, there was another soft sound, Li Laizhong only felt that someone hit him on the head with a hammer, so that he could no longer sit still on the horse, and swayed left and right and fell down. In the confusion, there seemed to be countless scenes in front of him, and the scenes of his life were vivid, and then, there was darkness.

The people of the rear army of Wuwei were shocked, and the soldiers picked up their guns and drew their knives, looking around. At this time, the gunfire was loud, and in the cornfields on both sides, several flags of foreigners were raised high, followed by rows and rows of bullets. Although there was no one to be seen, just this kind of platoon of guns, coupled with the pressure of foreign soldiers, made the rear army lose its fighting spirit.

The chief officer and the military adviser were killed, the rest of the crowd was leaderless, and the soldiers were still escorting the car, unable to organize resistance at all. When a large number of ambush soldiers came out of the sorghum fields with bayonets, these rear soldiers could only flee backwards in a hurry, and those who ran slowly were stabbed to death. As for which foreigner was killed, I don't care anymore.

Zhang Huaizhi looked at the carts that were left behind, as well as the boxes of silver and gold on them, and laughed, "My lord is clever, I am convinced, how do you know that Dong Wuxing is going to take this road." ”

"It's nothing, there aren't many ways his team can walk, only two, and it will be much easier to scan where he parked his car. Besides, on the other road was the car of the two palaces, and he didn't dare to go. It's right to be in this ambush. The money was his ill-gotten gains, and now, it's our cannon. This money is the first step, next, I will take you to win a fame and future, hurry up! ”

The soldiers with the artillery mark began to carry excitedly, and Zhao Guanhou re-pressed the bullets into the Minnie gun, looking at the two corpses on the ground, this is just the beginning, and there are still many people to die. Myself, and I'm busy. (To be continued.) )

PS: Tomorrow as usual, there's a big wave of updates coming.
