"In the year of Yiwei, Ding Hai Yue Ren said at noon, Dou Su, Li thief broke Guangzhou, Tang Xian said that the thief did not get it, and he was trapped in the thief camp. Tong Fan Shi Gao sat in the office. The general is still defending himself, the cannon sound in the city is shaking the sky, and the gentry in the city are like spectators, laughing with their hands, which is really a strange thing that I have not seen in China for 3,000 years! The hearts of men have been lost, and they have become so bad! ”

In a restaurant on Ma'an Street in the south of the old city of Guangzhou, a young man is writing hard at the dinner table, and opposite the restaurant is the Yamen of the Inspectorate, a group of soldiers in gray and blue uniforms and iron helmets on their heads, with hundreds of patrolmen blocking the yamen, neither killing them in nor letting people out, as if they are helping the inspectors to stand guard, this scene is already very strange.

The young man in the Confucian shirt was so excited by the laughter that he simply waved his hand and threw away the brush and shouted loudly.

"I, Li Fangying, am the son of Li Yuhong, a fellow acquaintance of Fogang! Come and get me! What about thieves!? Come and get me! ”

Everyone in the restaurant stayed for a moment, laughed one after another, and looked at this scholar like a fool.

"The anti-thieves burned, killed, and plundered, and you were raised by the imperial court, and Mu Ren was kind to the emperor, and he even sat here, chewing according to the case, what kind of face did he have!? What face do you have to see your ancestors and fathers! ”

The scholar's eyes breathed fire, and his words swept everyone in the restaurant in.

"It is when the imperial court is in trouble, is there anyone who is willing to serve the country with Li Mou's murder of thieves!?"

No one rushed up to pounce on him, and no one even refuted him, Li Fangying felt that he had suppressed everyone with a majestic righteousness, and his heart was even more boiling, and he raised his arms and shouted.

"Crazy ......"

"Smoke it on the street!"

"Scholars all have this surname, and if you don't go yourself, you have to instigate others to go."

What he got was a sneer, and Li Fangying only felt that all the blood on his face was poured into his throat.

Finally someone came, it was the second shopkeeper, and he politely asked him to change the table, but secretly he was driving people away. Li Fangying still wanted to reason with the shopkeeper, but was blocked by the other party's bright smile, so he had to wave his sleeves angrily, and he couldn't take care of the food anymore.

was about to go out, but was stopped by a middle-aged man, who was only alone, and invited Li Fangying to join the table.

"In this city of Guangzhou, how many loyal people like you and me can there be? Everyone else has become a kingless and fatherless beast! ”

Li Fangying thought that this person was his comrade, and he sat down and scolded non-stop.

"Little Brother Li, I just saw that you were uneasy and didn't eat, so you would hurt your body. As for what loyalty, what court, everyone is just a grassy people, and it has nothing to do with changing the court. ”

The middle-aged man shook his head and sighed, and Li Fangying gritted his teeth and slapped the table.

"How irrelevant! The court is more important than heaven and earth! How dare you say such rebellious words!? ”

The middle-aged man also laughed, and his words were like a stick, which made Li Fangying dizzy.

"Little Brother Li, this court has only been changed for sixty or seventy years, why is it called the world of gravity?"

His eyes were misty, as if he was very sorry.

"It's a pity, I, Ye Tianshi, have just embarked on a smooth road to medicine, if it weren't for the fact that my relatives are still in Jiangnan, and I don't know the good luck and evil in Guangdong, I really want to continue to stay here."

Then he asked Li Fangying: "Ling Zun is an official in Fogang, why don't you go back to Fogang and stay in Guangzhou City?" ”

Li Fangying sobered up a little, although he had regarded this Ye Tianshi as a group of thieves, but when he asked his father, he still had to reply, of course he wanted to leave, but Li Xian's army entered the city, could he go?

Ye Tianshi laughed: "If you want to go, you can go, Li Tianwang has not sealed the city, this Guangzhou ...... Except for the change of the court and the official master, nothing else has changed, as long as you don't use swords and guns with the soldiers, no one will embarrass you, and a scholar like you can escape hundreds of thousands in these two days. ”

Then he reminded one more sentence: "Just be careful of the bannermen and officers and soldiers who fled on the road, but they want to ask for money and take people's surnames...... Hey......"

When Li Fangying heard that he could come and go freely, he had already pulled out his legs and left.

Looking at his back, Ye Tianshi shook his head and chuckled: "Scholar ......"

Outside the yamen of the general of Guangzhou, he heard Shang Jun's report that a large number of officials and eunuchs had fled by the road, and Li Xian sighed disapprovingly, let them go, it is better than them to nest in Guangzhou City.

"The superintendent has left Zhaoqing and is rushing towards Guangzhou, are we in time?"

Shang Jun was very worried, this is also the worry of Fan Jin, Wu Ya and others, using infantry to accompany the artillery to destroy the house and open the way, although it is safe, his casualties are very small, but the progress is very slow. For a whole day, but the west and north of the banner area were cleared, thousands of women and children were captured, and many people were killed and wounded, and many bannermen shrank to the area of the General's Mansion and the Six Banyan Temple.

"I heard that Guan Yuanzhong led the elite to guard the Six Banyan Temple, if a passage is broken and directly inserted into the Six Banyan Temple, and Guan Yuanzhong is taken, the other flag people should bow down and be bound."

Fan Jin's proposal to take into account both public and private interests, but Li Shi shook his head, yesterday's battle was seen, the banner people only regarded themselves as mortal, and their fighting spirit was resolute, not many Ding Zhuang surrendered, and even launched many counter-attacks at night. Fortunately, the "assault groups" of all directions were reasonably matched, with one cannon followed by at least two sentries and a number of military standard patrolmen to support, and the manpower was sufficient. In addition, the heavily armored grenadiers and the reinforced firepower of the Divine Arm Cannon were not able to stop the demolition project.

"Stability is the right way, and taking risks and quick decisions is to use our shortcomings to fight with the strengths of the flag people. As for the time, the quantitative change produces the qualitative change, didn't you notice, after repelling their counterattack last night, more and more prisoners were captured today? ”

Some strange terms in Li Shi's words were ignored by everyone, but the meaning was understood, as long as it was stable, it would get faster and faster.

The street battle is very dangerous, Li Xian is very familiar with it in his previous life, but this is not the street battle of that era after all, when the streets and alleys in the west and north are cleaned up, there are examples of houses destroyed and people killed, and the banner people's will to fight quickly collapses. By noon, the situation confirmed Li Shi's conclusion that "quantitative change produces qualitative change", often after a cannon is pushed into a street, the banner people will descend in groups, even if they feel that they will inevitably die, but resistance is to die immediately, surrender is to die later, and maybe there is still a glimmer of life, this glimmer of hope shattered their resistance heart.

The flower tower of the Six Banyan Temple has become the center of the resistance of the banner people, four or five thousand flag soldiers and flag man Ding Zhuang are still gathered in the Six Banyan Temple, these people do not surrender, and in their opinion, as long as they hold for another day or two, reinforcements can arrive.

"If the King of Heaven can say clearly that if he does not kill the banner man of the Five Banners, the west side of the Temple of the Six Banyan Trees will be open to the King of Heaven."

Gui Zhen, the captured banner man, made a suggestion, and everyone did not know much about the situation of the banner people in Guangzhou City, and they all felt strange when they heard this.

"The reason why the banner people are still fighting is that they have seen the inscription of the king of heaven, and they are afraid that the king of heaven will treat them as one banner man and avenge the deep hatred of slaughtering Guangzhou 60 years ago."

Gui Zhen smiled flatteringly, the meaning of these words was complicated, and it took a few turns of the brain to understand.

Li Shi's document on the founding of the People's Republic of China has not yet been released, but he first published a "Letter to the Officials and Civilians of Guangzhou", which clearly stated that Guangzhou is the Guangzhou of China, not the Guangzhou of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, as long as it is not the enemy of the "heavenly soldiers of the Han family", regardless of the officials and the people, they will not be embarrassed, and each will do his own business and perform his duties, and the officers and soldiers of the Qing court will also have their own proper arrangements. The only enemy is the banner man in the city of Guangzhou. They stole and occupied the city, and their ancestors were bloody with both hands, and they once washed Guangzhou as a bloody city with empty alleys, and this revenge must be recovered.

Now Gui Zhen's words are pointing out that there are also differences within the Guangzhou banner people.

"We came to the Five Banners for twenty-two years, and the Three Banners were the old department of the King of Pingnan, and the empty city of Guangzhou was the year, but they did it all, and it had nothing to do with our Five Banners."

Gui Zhen's explanation made everyone suddenly, and Li Xi also remembered, that's right, the upper three banners of the Han military flag in Guangzhou were all rerecorded by Shang Kexi's old department, compiled in the 20th year of Kangxi, with more than 1,000 soldiers, and in the 22nd year, more than 1,000 people were transferred from the lower five banners of the Han military flag in the north, making up 3,000.

If you want to avenge the slaughter of the city in Guangzhou, you really have to find the banner man of the Three Banners, but you ...... "You Han army banner people, follow the Manchurians to steal and occupy China, and slaughter hundreds of millions of my Chinese people, they are all raccoon dogs, there is no difference at all!" ”

Fan Jin said hatefully.

"Huaxia ...... It's a matter of the future, and now it's just Guangzhou. ”

Li Xi did not hesitate and accepted Gui Zhen's suggestion.

"Heavenly King, do you really want to let go of the flag man!?"

Fan Jin and his subordinates were dissatisfied, and Li Xian smiled and shook his head.

"Dead ...... No matter how simple it is, how can they pay for their century-old feud in China? ”

Looking at his determined smile, Fan Jin and the others all breathed a sigh of relief, and then shuddered, Li Xian ruled on behalf of the sky, so what kind of miserable experience awaits these banner people? I can't imagine it...... With the cooperation of the "Banner Annihilation", a big gap was broken in the west of the Six Banyan Temple, and the guards poured into the Six Banyan Temple with cannons, and thousands of strong and strong defense lines like iron barrels collapsed like a torrent bursting embankment. When the flower tower is surrounded by layers, the head is slightly westerly.

"Surrender! If you hit it with one shot, you will end up in pieces! ”

Under the flower tower, the loud Si Wei shouted to the thousands of flag soldiers who were still gathered under the tower.

"I'd rather die by cannon! I won't let you Han dogs cut off your head! ”

A shout sounded, which not only made some of the panicked flag soldiers stabilize their minds, but also made Fan Jin's heart jump suddenly, and the hatred of the deep hatred in the sea of blood erupted like magma.

Ma Harrier, the reason why Fan Jin's family was ruined and he lost an eye, although the origin is Guan Yuanzhong, and there are other people who do it, but he is the mastermind of the intermediary plan.

Jia Hao and Wu Ya's eyes were also red, in the battle of Qingpu a year ago, it was this horse harrier who commanded the Qing soldiers to attack, causing them to lose a lot of subordinates, including capable subordinates like Lang Songliang and Zheng Hongyuan.

"On the second floor!"

Zhao Hanxiang rubbed his hands, took matters into his own hands, and commanded the three cannons to aim at the second floor of the flower tower. The flag soldiers all shrank behind the obstacles, and even the horse harriers who shouted on the second floor did not dare to show their faces, for fear of being shot in the head by the sharpshooters, but they could hide from the guns, and they could hide from the cannons?

Less than a hundred paces away, the second floor of the flower tower was hit by three shells at the same time, the bricks and tiles were sprayed, the stumps were splashed everywhere, and the bottom of the flower tower was like a flower of smoke and dust mixed with scarlet blood spots.

The horse harrier who was broken at the knee under his left leg flew into the sky, only to feel that he had ascended to immortal, in a trance, Guan Yuanzhong poked his head out from the top floor, and the horse harrier stretched out his arm, wanting the master to catch him, but what he got was a cold glance.

Said the head with the figure quickly away, the horse harrier fell from mid-air, smashed between the rocks with a pop, the bones were cracked, but he was not dead, the pain was like an oil pot tormenting his consciousness, and the heavy boots stepped by his side, he could hear it clearly and see it clearly.

"Help me...... Let me die ......"

He tried to shout, but he didn't even move his mouth, and a crow fluttered and landed on his face, and half of his vision was suddenly extinguished.

"What about the Harriers? Did you find it? ”

I don't know how long it took, Fan Jin stepped on this insincere corpse, and was still asking his subordinates. He didn't notice that the man who had had had one of his eyes pecked out by a bird wasn't dead, and he didn't recognize it as a harrier.

"Leave the harriers alone, go up."

Li Shi's voice sounded again, and this round of artillery completely shattered the will of the other flag soldiers, and they all abandoned their weapons and surrendered, knowing from their mouths that Guan Yuanzhong was shrinking at the top of the flower tower with his family.

"I'll go up...... Do what? ”

Fan Jin pretended to be stupid with difficulty, he didn't want to face that kind of scene.

"Then I'll just let the grenadiers drop a few flowering bombs, and it's a hundred."

Li Shi said this deliberately, and Fan Jin jumped up immediately.

"Jiuxiu's sister is also up there! You can't bear it......"

So this old man, it's really annoying, Li Xian sighed, roughly speaking, he and Guan Yuanzhong are still brothers-in-law.

"Master, do it......"

But Li Xian didn't expect that An Jiuxiu's sister would be kneeling on the ground with Guan Yuanzhong's other wives and concubines, and letting Guan Yuanzhong's waist knife be compared to his neck.

"I ...... I can't move my hands......"

Guan Yuanzhong gestured for a long time, but he couldn't bear to start, and he was still lamenting in his heart, the housekeeper had been from the dragon for a long time, and the family expenses were scattered all over the world, if he didn't die, the family would have to suffer, but not only did he not want to die, but he also didn't want the children and wives and concubines in the family to die.

It's just that I'm dead!

Guan Yuanzhong closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, and the waist knife was wiped on his neck, but he was pulled by his wife and concubine and daughter.

"Daddy...... If you want to die, take us to die together......"

Guan Xiaoyu shouted with tears in her eyes.

With such a toss, the sound of footsteps had approached downstairs, and in an instant, countless pictures flashed in Guan Yuanzhong's mind, and finally fixed on the voice and smile of his brother Guan Xiaozhong.

Guan Xiaozhong fought a bloody battle with the Zheng family army in Nanjing, defended Nanjing, enjoyed the reputation of "Optimus Pillar", and also achieved the housekeeper today, how can he not live anymore, as for his children, wives and concubines...... With Li Shi's personality, and for the sake of the An family sisters, he shouldn't embarrass them.

"Xiaoyu, a woman is a husband, she is more glamorous than her father......"

Guan Yuanzhong muttered this, suddenly pushed Guan Xiaoyu away, jumped in shape, and rushed out of the window directly.

Guan Xiaoyu was so frightened that her whole body froze, and in the cry of grief, several wives and concubines also jumped down.

"An Sixiu!"

The soldiers rushed up, and when they saw a bunch of women jumping out of the window, they quickly shouted, and a young woman who was rushing to the window froze for a moment, and then was dragged away by the soldiers.

"Daddy!"

Guan Xiaoyu came to her senses at this time, and while calling, she also rushed to the window, and as soon as she jumped up, her waist was wrapped around her waist and dragged her back.

"You must not die!"

A familiar voice sounded, it was Fan Jin, Guan Xiaoyu only felt that his heart and lungs had been split into countless pieces, and he punched and kicked at Fan Jin.

"You killed my father! Give back my father's life! ”

Fan Jin was still holding his head and kicking her at first, but he heard her shouting and grabbed her hard.

"My father, my sister, was also killed by your father! You're coming back, too! ”

The soldiers quietly retreated, and on the top of the tower, only a pair of men and women hugged and cried each other.

Under the flower tower, the two corpses were entangled in one place, dragging Guan Yuanzhong above away, and in the single eye of the "corpse" below, the eyeballs were still turning slightly, and the throat was still puffing slightly, but no one noticed it.

"Are you still dead......

Li Shi shook his head, Guan Yuanzhong can also be so "fierce", which made him indeed a little surprised, even the real man Tong Fahai was arrested alive in the political envoy Si Yamen, and the Guangzhou prefect Martai simply escaped neatly. On the contrary, many Han subordinate officials committed suicide, and Shi Yizhi committed suicide by hanging himself. It's a pity that the scholar didn't know how to tie the knot, so he made a dead knot, and he didn't die for a long time, but he was still captured alive.

The dead died, the arrested, the Manchu officials in the city were swept away, and the city of Guangzhou was completely owned by him.

"The damned are still alive, but the ones who don't have to die are dead, this is the loyalty of the Manchus, hehe......"

Li Xi sighed.

At night, under the flower tower, there was a low sigh like a ghost, and the harrier's single eye looked at the starry night, but he still couldn't swallow that breath.
