"Kill this dog officer!"

"It's he who harms people, harms the people of Wuchang City, and wants to harm us!"

"The official master is really a liar! I should have understood a long time ago that there is no blue sky under this sky! ”

"What Qingtian!? It's a ***! ”

Then the people's call made Zhang Boxing's heart break open, why is this happening? What about your reputation......

The people were buzzing and shouting, and many things that Zhang Boxing did not know in the prison were also heard in the ears. It turned out that the news of the burning of Wuchang had reached Jiangning, and there was no living person in the whole city, because Zhang Boxing arrested Aunt Pan, not only did not listen to the emperor's order to let it go, but directly set it on fire, which resulted in the destruction of the city.

What makes the people even more indignant is that after Zhang Boxing did this, in order to save his own life, he actually ran away.

If it's just such rumors, it's not enough to make any waves in the hearts of the people of Jiangning, but Uncle Zhang is in Jiangning. It is said that the Yinghua army is coming in a "tide", which has broken through Huangzhou and is about to enter Anhui, and Jiangnan is exactly what their soldiers are referring to.

Now the sailors in the south of the Yangtze River are moving, the warships are constantly going west, and the people's hearts are "chaotic", all of which started because of Zhang Boxing, he actually ran straight to Jiangning, how can he not let the people of Jiangning hate him?

Insightful people pointed out even more sharply that the north and the south were already too peaceful, but Zhang Boxing jumped out and led the Anglo-Chinese army to the north. The newspapers of the Southern Barbarians were talking about the Northern Expedition one after another. The people of the Southern Barbarians are even more indignant and want

Slaughter the people of the Northland. Such a catastrophe was recruited by Zhang Boxing, the "No. 1 Qing official in the world", he is indeed the No. 1 in the world, he is the No. 1 scourge in the world!

It is not difficult to understand what happened to Zhang Boxing's prisoner car when it started, and countless rubbles fell on him.

As the prisoner van traveled all the way, the people gathered more and more, and their emotions became more and more restless. The next thing is even more logical. When the prisoner car arrived in the narrow alley, the people took action one after another, tearing and tearing apart, first tearing off Zhang Boxing's clothes, and then finally a "woman" used her long nails to cut out a long strand of flesh on Zhang Boxing's body.

Zhang Boxing raised his head and screamed in pain, but because his mouth was gagged, he couldn't make a sound, his heart was already dead, but there was still a trace of fire, that's it, I, Zhang Boxing, today actually followed in the footsteps of Yuan Chonghuan......

This thought was immediately shattered by a sharp pain under him, it turned out to be a wild dog that came out of nowhere, got into the prison car, probably smelled the smell left by Zhang Boxing's muscles out of control before, opened his mouth and bit down on that place.

Zhang Boxing's eyes were almost split, and the whole person almost fainted.

In the whine, the official kicked away the wild dog, and scolded in his mouth: "This beast also came to take advantage, it is all ...... that can be sold for money."

The other officials struggled to block the people who stretched out their hands, and said in their mouths: "Write *** to give money to those who want meat!" Blood steamed buns? Wait until this meat is sold out! ”

Listening to these words, Zhang Boxing's mind was "confused" and "chaotic", and he burst into tears, and he suddenly felt that this world was already hell, and what was wrong with heaven to put himself in this hell......

only

When the knife fell on Zhang Boxing's leg, ready to cut the first piece of meat, Zhang Boxing looked up to the sky and sighed, sighing why the sky didn't open his eyes, he was also surrounded by a large group of soldiers in his hometown in Henan. Men, women, and children are strung together like grasshoppers

Son, drove into the carriage. They will travel south and be sent to Yunnan. The west of Yunnan is still the territory of the Qing court, but it is already an enclave, separated by Yinghua Shengsheng. This disposal naturally has ulterior motives, and it is Yongzheng Junchen's own initiative.

Ready to give Li Xi an explanation.

Jingzhou General's Mansion, facing Guntai's gaze with a hint of pity, Ma Jianbo asked: "Zhang Boxing, what crime have you convicted?" ”

Guntai said: "Great rebellion, perversity, eighteen articles, everything that is worthy of capital sin, he has enjoyed it all." ”

Ma Jianbo showed a hint of pleasure: "He deserves it!" ”

Then he smiled sadly: "The emperor still protects my ......"

Guntai sighed: "The emperor's edict...... Ma Jianbo is a good man, but he doesn't have a good brain, I hurt him, and today I borrowed his head for a purpose, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, I hope he will not be resentful, and I will take care of his family. ”

Ma Jianbo burst into tears, knelt down to the north, kowtowed, and choked up: "It was the slave who involved the emperor, causing the emperor to bow his head to the south, just pointing to the next life, and he can still serve the emperor!" ”

Guntai wiped the tears in his eyes and said in a low voice: "It's all the Southern Barbarians!" Brother Ma, you go well, let's remember your hatred, and we will definitely claim it back a hundred times on Nanban in the future! Ma Jianbo got up, took the sea bowl handed by his own soldiers, muttered, dried several large bowls in one breath, and burped and said: "Mess with my face, and if you die, you will scare the Li thief!" ”

After a while, seeing him slumped in the chair, already drunk and weak, Guntai gritted his teeth and said to his soldiers: "Let's do it, use the fastest knife, let Brother Ma walk more briskly." ”

The water-soaked vellum paper was pasted on Ma Jianbo's face layer by layer, and this northwestern man, the great-grandson of the former famous general Ma Shilong, suffocated to death in drunkenness, and then his head was cut off again, put in a wooden box, and sent to the south.

Yongzheng used thunderbolt means to deal with Zhang Boxing and Ma Jianbo seriously and quickly, and the original three members of Huguang were also taken aback. Gontai was demoted to five levels to stay in office, Ortai was transferred to the governor of Henan, and Nian Xiyao was demoted to the political envoy of Hubei, and Yang Wenqian, the prefect of Wuchang, who stepped forward to save the lives of the people of Wuchang, because Yongzheng heard that he was very praised by Li Xian, and promoted him to the governor of Hubei.

In some arrangement, Yongzheng's biggest move was to revoke the governor of Huguang and the governor of Hunan, on the surface it was to tear off the face that the Qing court could no longer maintain Huguang in his hands, but inside he was bowing to Li Xian and admitting that Hunan had returned to Yinghua. And through Ru Xi, Yongzheng sent a signal directly to Li Xi: Let's ...... Call it a day?

The meaning of Li Shi's reply is also Yongzheng's heart, we have to toss for a while, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the people below.

That's natural, Yongzheng blatantly disposed of Zhang Boxing and Ma Jianbo with a tough hand, and also removed the governor of Huguang, he can't help but consider appeasing the feelings of the government and the opposition, otherwise he, the emperor, will also be too weak, and will let the court and the clan put it aside

Doubting his position. Therefore, after this arrangement, he also urgently dispatched troops, set up a large camp in Hanyang, gathered sailors and soldiers and horses from all walks of life, and put on a posture of wanting to fight with Li Xian.

At this time, the Tielin Army, the Shenwu Army, the Dragoon Army and the Red Thunder Army have been mobilized, and the Tiger Ben Army is also being mobilized, and the officers and soldiers are in high spirits, and it is difficult to contain them for a while.

In the west of Huxi, the Tielin army has broken through Changde, and the commander Pan Shiyu heard that his sister was martyred, fainted on the spot, and after waking up, he waved his army to continue north, to dig out Jingzhou, the old nest of the Qing court Huguang, and even organized thousands of days of torture society to prepare to slaughter the city for revenge.

In the east of Huguang, although the Shenwu army has retreated, the dragoon army led by Wang Tanghe is still in the Wuchang area, gearing up, wanting to clean up the Qing soldiers gathered in Hanyang.

Not only the military, but also public opinion is boiling over and unquellable. More than 100,000 Catholics came to Wuchang and organized a public sacrifice in the place of martyrdom in Panjinling.

In addition to the people, people from all other walks of life in the country have now unified their minds, and even the industrial and commercial parties and the Confucian Party have shouted the slogan: Northern Expedition!

Emotions overwhelmed the thinking of interests, not only the Catholic people, but also the Anglo-Chinese people, regardless of what position and faction they had before, through the Wuchang incident, they have now realized one point: the north and the south are different, and they are too different from the people in the north.

Radical people naturally want to shout for the people to fight the crime and cleanse China, but the people of the mean think that if they do not advance north as soon as possible, the people in the north will suffer more from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and then they will be even worse than beasts. And conservative people also believe that if they do not go north at this time, the difference between the north and the south will be greater, and the later they go north, the more lives will be ruined, and I am afraid that the burning of the city in Wuchang will be staged everywhere.

Naturally, the people who were originally shouting for the Northern Expedition had louder voices, and at this time, Yinghua and various newspapers were full of the words Northern Expedition.

On the one hand, he restrained the two radicals of Pan Shiyu and Wang Tanghe, and on the other hand, he began to build river boats in Yuezhou, putting on a posture of wanting to go down the river and take the south of the Yangtze River.

Li Xi and Yongzheng had a real tacit understanding at this time, and the two sides were like a pair of roosters, with wings and cockscombs in Hubei, glaring angrily.

However, Li Shi did not issue the Northern Expedition document, and Yongzheng did not issue an edict against thieves, and after the two sides put on a posture, they quickly turned around and went to their respective sides to channel the fighting mood under their rule.

Yongzheng's side, it was a complete bluff, he had just cleaned up his backyard, the national politics had not yet been rolled out, there was no money and no soldiers, and Luobzang Danjin in the northwest Qinghai had colluded with Ling Dun Duobu to rebel, so he couldn't afford to fight.

Li Shi had no intention of fighting, and in addition to the previous considerations, the people of Jiangnan, Zhili and Shaanxi and Gansu obviously did not welcome the Yinghua army. In addition, the warning from Yongzheng was confirmed by Xiao Sheng, the General Office, and the Privy Council Coastal Defense Department and other people that there were already some signs and was not pure intimidation. Li Shi also has to gather national strength to meet this challenge, and he will not be able to look north in a short time.

Seeing that the New Year is coming, the Holy Dao Era is also about to enter the second year, Chengtianfu, south of Baicheng, the place named "Valley of Despair" by Li Shi, Li Shi held a slender figure and stood in front of the root wall of the local heavenly temple.

The fair-skinned wrist stretched out to the root wall and took down a sign with white characters on a red background before, which read "Panjin Bell", and then hung a black character on a white background, which was also a sign with this name. On this string, there was originally a sign with black characters on a white background and "Pan Silver Bell". A red background indicates that the person is alive, and a white background indicates the opposite.

Then the slender figure took out another sign with a red background, which said "Xiao Fumei", she was hesitating whether to hang it up, Li Xi on the side took the sign from her hand, and said in a low voice: "This piece is to be with me." ”
