Zhang Jialing's bloodshed finally made people feel that Zhang Chun was not just an "ignorant" child.

This kid can really kill, and Zhang Chun at this time is different from two years ago. If two years ago it was forced or ignorant to kill people, but this time it was the initiative to order the killing. There is a clear difference between the two. And one kill is hundreds.

Ordinary families have also hired some martial artists to be guardians, and some family members are also equipped with weapons. But it is rare to kill so many people at once, and even if there is a serious conflict of interests between families, most of them end in the threat of force and negotiation. Even if they buy off or collude with bandits, they kill all the affiliated poor, and very few people hurt their own families.

Of course, bandits killing people cannot be counted on the head of a big family.

The Wu family, the Yang family, the Liu family, and the Yuan family, who usually had some dealings with Zhangjialing, all sent old people to spread the word, saying that the children were killed too heavily and violated the peace of heaven. In particular, the Yuan family no longer let Yuan Chuanjian come to Zhangjialing again, but sent people to persuade Yuan Fang to marry as soon as possible, so as not to bring a child to Zhangjialing and become a sister-in-law.

Gu Ming went to Yuan's house to find the old man to propose marriage, after all, Yuan Fang had no other relatives.

Yuan Fang said: "I am me, my way is my own, it is useless for you to find them." ”

Gu Ming knew Yuan Fang's thoughts, but he still followed the traditional etiquette, after all, the old people in Gu Ming's own family also wanted to save face. The Yuan family also knew that they couldn't control Yuan Fang, so they accepted Gu Ming's gift, and added some additions to Yuan Fang.

The relationship between the two can be regarded as formalized. It's just that Gu Ming went out early and returned late because he took care of Yuan Fang's reputation, and no longer occasionally spent the night in Zhangjialing as before, and he was a little more distant on the surface.

According to the rules of the imperial court, killing bandits and protecting the township is the merit of the local armor, and it should be reported to the imperial court for commendation.

But Zhang Fenglan greeted Xin Baojiu, saying that this was a child who was ignorant and didn't know how to be afraid, so she asked Xin Baojiu to "bear with me". Xin Baojiu also pressed it, not to mention that there were thousands of victims who died of starvation, and it was nothing to die of some victims, and Zhangjialing saved the most people, and it was reasonable to offset the two.

Yunlong Town, money and grain cabinet Yamen.

The Yamen of the Money Cabinet was rebuilt at the expense of the Wu family and the Li family, because it was in the place where the big family was focused on guarding, although this time Yunlong Town was burned in half again. However, the north streets of the Wu family and the Yang family, counting some large commercial houses, did not have any losses.

Another place where the bandits did not move was Baijia Lane of South Street, because Baijia Lane was inhabited by eunuchs, and there were families in the house.

In the hall in the backyard of the deputy ya, Gu Ming squinted his eyes and listened to Xin Baojiu and the patriarchs of the various families complimenting each other.

Xin Baojiu's body is slightly thin, smooth and beardless, and has a Shaoxing accent. He was born as a master, and it is said that Li Wengui of Jingshan County is his owner, but Xin Baojiu leaned on Gu Ming, or the door behind Gu Ming. Xin Baojiu invited Gu Ming to come because the people of Baijiaxiang looked down on these "rich people", and they did not need the protection of these families, and most of these people did not have to pay taxes. Therefore, he has always regarded himself as a stranger to the local forces, and he has never interacted with each other.

Xin Baojiu didn't have much to do.

Although the imperial court failed to reform, the Westernists still held a dominant position. The imperial court launched a war against the foreigners, and at this time, Zhang Zhidong united with the five southern provinces to push Li Hongzhang as the main force to protect himself in the southeast, but in fact gave up going north to fight against the foreigners, and the Beiyang New Army also watched from the wall. The emperor and Lafayette fled, and the capital was lost. Li Hongzhang went north to negotiate with foreigners.

Xin Baojiu was confused and didn't know where to go.

But do you care about these things?

No one cared, the eyes of the major families only looked at the interests under their noses, and the hypocritical compliments were full of deceit. Some newspapers said that the foreigners started a war with the Eight Banners Army, and tens of thousands of people on the beach watched the battle and applauded, as if it was not the Chinese who were killed. Now Xin Baojiu understands that as long as the foreigners do not violate the interests of these families, it doesn't matter who else is in power.

Xin Baojiu's face stiffened with laughter.

And Gu Ming kept his eyes closed, even if he couldn't see the expression on his face, Xin Baojiu knew that Gu Ming's patience had reached the extreme.

"All the parents have protected the safety of the township in this banditry, and they have made great contributions, and they will definitely report to the court for commendation. It's just that this time the victims of the disaster going south may be bandits, what do you think? Xin Baojiu's words made the scene cool down.

One parent even asked in a low voice: "or Mao?" ”

Da Lijiawan is the largest family here, and there are several officials in the family, so I still know why the Boxers have become bandits.

"Lord Xin, I don't think we met boxers this time, and we didn't meet bandits who fought God Fist in the middle. Didn't you say that the imperial court was going to set up a local group to practice? What's wrong with the bandits? "The old man thinks clearly, but he knows too little.

Xin Baojiu also had a hard time explaining why, so he had to talk about it left and right: "The imperial court fought with the foreigners, and they were defeated, and the foreigners entered the capital, and Lafayette and the emperor went westward." Lord Li Zhongtang presided over the peace talks, and reparations were inevitable. The imperial court is afraid that it will have to raise taxes. ”

If Xin Baojiu doesn't mention the stakes, I'm afraid the scene will still be indifferent.

But unexpectedly, everyone still looked indifferent, but instead picked up their tea bowls and drank tea. Xin Bao was happy for a long time, and it seemed that they knew that the imperial court had to beg them if they wanted to increase taxes. So the shelves were raised.

It was still the parents of the Li family who said with a smile: "Lord Xin, in the past two years, the imperial court has opened new classes and schools, and it has engaged in the new army to make guns and cannons. There is only a little grain in the crops, and it is not worth much silver. It's just that the imperial court supports merchants to build factories and do business, and the merchants have many ways, which is better than us digging in the ground. We can afford to have money there? ”

A group of people rushed to echo it.

Gu Ming really couldn't listen to it anymore, opened his eyes and flicked his sleeves and said, "Master Xin, I still need to teach students in the future, so take the first step." ”

Xin Baojiu hurriedly stood up: "Mr. Gu, all the guards have arrived, the big man of the Zhang family is still young, and he didn't come, so he asked Mr. Gu to pass the word on his behalf." ”

Gu Ming said coldly: "Master Xin, I will pass on the words on my behalf, but I am the principal of Yunlong New School, and I have nothing to do with the Zhang family." However, Zhang Dayan is only ten years old, and he still knows that the country is in trouble, and his husband is responsible. ”

Gu Ming left without looking back.

Although Gu Ming didn't give Xin Baojiu face, Xin Baojiu still felt happy in his heart.

Xin Baojiu didn't say anything. But there was condemnation below.

"This student who stayed abroad can spoil the Zhang family, bully the big man who is young and ignorant, ruin the family, and raise all the mud legs. Do you still want to rebel when the time comes? ”

"I heard that the teacher gave all the fields to the mud legs, and only collected 30% of the rent, isn't it just to see that there is no one in the big guy's family, this is a loser."

"Give the mud-legged doll to read and write, and then the slave will bully the master."

Xin Baojiu looked at the chaotic hall, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

Zhangjialing, Zhang Chun refused Xin Baojiu's invitation because he was young. He's going to spend some time with the convoys.

Zhang Tian, the members of the escort team, couldn't see anything at that time. But with the increase in the number of victims and children who have been receiving. There were some changes in their psyche, and they began to hide from people outside the escort. Even the Henan people who received it did not have any unusual emotions towards them.

The army is a killing machine, but people are not, and the existence of the army must be supported by higher ideals. Otherwise, the soldier will become a ruffian, and he will become no different from a bandit. This is not something that can be replaced by money and benefits, for example, the salaries of the guards in other families are definitely more than Zhang Tian's.

Zhang Tian They are also different from the guards of the family, they have been instilled with all kinds of knowledge for two years, they will think, they will think about why they want to kill. It doesn't take so many people to protect a village, and how did so many people come about? Why can't they survive and flee to Hubei. And all that.

There are so many questions that Zhang Chun can only answer them one by one.

In the question and answer, the eyes of the inspection are no longer limited to Zhangjialing, but to Hubei and the whole country. It has moved towards the origin, development and contradictions of various strata. It's not a question of space, it's a question of time, it's a matter of history.

"The military is not just a tool used for repression, the military should be a countryman, and the goal of the military is to solve the country's problems. We are still young and not considered soldiers, but as Chinese people, self-cultivation and governing the world is our goal. The role of the military is to stop fighting, that is, to stop strife by the most effective means, including force. That's what you're doing now. You kill people to save people, of course, there is another way besides killing people, that is, to sincerely think more for the living, think about them, and do things for them. You cannot hide from the sidelines, this is to evade your responsibilities. ”

At this time, Zhang Chun was more like a teacher.

And now the people of Zhangjialing also regard Zhang Chun as a teacher like Yuan Fang.

"Why aren't the soldiers of the court like this?"

"Because they are soldiers, they are paid as soldiers. But you are not, you will become real soldiers, you will become the army of ordinary people, with ideals and goals. They don't, soldiers without ideals are just dogs of the imperial court. You are not, you are the masters, and you will be the masters and guardians of the country. ”

"We're going to protect the people who are killing people everywhere in the future?"

"Yes, the victims are killing people everywhere because they are hungry, they have nothing to eat, they can't live. It's the fault of the state, sorry for them, not their fault. They had to take risks in order to stay alive. You kill the living in order to protect them, because you are not capable enough, you can't and can't change this country, so that this country can feed and clothe the people. You are protecting the country, including those who have killed people, but you need more knowledge, more force, and tenacity. ”

Zhang Chun looked up at the sky. He was silent for a long time before he said:

"Enemies, sometimes it's hard to tell. Enemies are for a period of time, and sometimes enemies become friends over time. But for servicemen, the enemy is a real threat, and servicemen must solve real problems. Therefore, it is necessary to remember the phrase that it is as cold as winter for the enemy and as warm as spring for the people. This is the character that a soldier should have. Soldiers are not used to oppress the people. ”

When Zhang Chun said these words, Yuan Fang and Li Zhen were on the side.

The cold hairs on Yuan Fang's whole body stood up, because she had already realized how terrifying these twenty-odd children would become in the future.

"Is this a rebellion?"

Yuan Fang asked herself secretly in her heart.
