434 A lady under the poison of a wooden donkey
Lin Fei settled down on the island, asked people to find the fisherman village chief, and told him to go to Fuzhou and send a letter to the Qing court officials, saying that the famous Emperor Fei had come to Langqi Island in person, specifically for the detention of the Huaxia Mission, and asked the Qing court to quickly send officials to discuss the matter of apology and compensation.
As soon as the fisherman village chief left, Lin Fei called Yu Ningshuang to the front and said with a smile: "You Blood Phoenix Special Forces can go to war." β
Yu Ningshuang took out the bone knife from his waist, played with it in his hand, and said with a smile: "How to fight, are you going to assassinate Zhang Zhidong?" β
Lin Fei shook his head and said: "Zhang Zhidong is a minister of the Qing court, a feudal official, and has a very high status in the Qing court officialdom. β
Yu Ningshuang put away the bone knife in disappointment and asked, "Then what do you want us to do?" β
Lin Fei said with a smile: "Of course it's reconnaissance, you start from Langqiyu, go upriver along the Min River, reconnoiter the garrison of the Qing army along the way, and after arriving at Fuzhou City, reconnoiter inside, and reconnoiter the situation of the city defense and the garrison." β
Lin Fei's voice changed and said: "Don't go by yourself, I'll find you some local fishermen, you pretend to be a father and daughter selling fish, so that it won't attract attention, remember, no matter what the reconnaissance situation is, at six o'clock in the evening, you must come back before dark, understand?" β
Yu Ningshuang agreed to come down and led his subordinates away, Langqiyu was not far from Fuzhou City, so within a day, the members of the Blood Phoenix Special Forces came back one after another, and reported to Lin Fei about the garrison of the Qing army between Langqiyu and Fuzhou City, from Langqiyu to the coast of Fuzhou City, there was no Qing army garrison at all, and the Qing army did not have a fort at all on several important coastal defense sites such as Mawei.
The Qing army was not only lax in coastal defense, but also extremely lax in river defense, and there were no Qing army patrol boats on the river, and there was no trace of defensive facilities such as barrage nets.
Hearing this, Lin Fei was not surprised, the Qing army's combat effectiveness was low, there was no defense of the sea, and there was no defense of the river, otherwise the British army would not have driven straight into the two opium wars, and the momentum would have been like a bamboo.
Lin Fei learned about the defense of the river from Langqiyu to Fuzhou City, so he wanted to understand the defense situation of Fuzhou City, and the person who went to Fuzhou City to reconnoiter was Yu Ningshuang, but everyone came back, but Yu Ningshuang did not come back, Lin Fei couldn't help but be a little worried, don't something happen, now Liu Yongfu, Sa Zhenbing, and Xiyun are all in the hands of Qing Guo, if it is Ningshuang, it will ...... Lin Fei didn't dare to think about it anymore.
It wasn't until midnight that Yu Ningshuang came back, Lin Fei was a little angry because he was worried, and blamed: "Didn't I say that I had to come back before six o'clock in the evening, what time is it?" Yu Ningshuang has a "criminal record" of disobedience, and when she was in Taiwan, she acted without authorization, causing many casualties.
Yu Ningshuang lowered her head and said gloomily, "I'm sorry, I know it's wrong." β
Lin Fei saw that Yu Ningshuang had admitted his mistake, and his anger dissipated a lot, and said: "Okay, pay attention in the future, don't do it again, reconnaissance is a very difficult task, and I don't blame you for not being able to complete it on time, let's talk about it, how is the situation of the Qing army in Fuzhou City?" β
Yu Ningshuang snorted a few times, and then said in a hesitant voice: "I...... I didn't detect it. β
Lin Fei's anger that had just dissipated gathered again, "For such a long time, you haven't reconnoitred the situation of the Qing army in Fuzhou City, so what have you done?" β
Yu Ningshuang said hesitantly: "No...... Didn't do anything......"
Lin Fei slapped the table, walked in front of Yu Ningshuang, and said coldly: "Ningshuang, where did you go and what did you do?" Hurry up and say..."
"I've been ...... outside the Governor's Mansion in Fujian and Zhejiang"
The Governor's Mansion of Fujian and Zhejiang is Zhang Zhidong's temporary address, Lin Fei instantly remembered what she said about assassinating Zhang Zhidong, guessed that she was looking for an opportunity to assassinate Zhang Zhidong, and suddenly became furious: "Ning Shuang, do you want to assassinate Zhang Zhidong again?" It's just nonsense, the Fujian and Zhejiang Governor's Mansion is heavily guarded, you go to assassinate Zhang Zhidong alone and are either killed or captured, and now Xiyun is already in the hands of the Qing court......"
"Xiyun, I just want to save Xiyun..."Yu Ningshuang said loudly, Lin Fei was even more angry, "How can one person save Xiyun?" β
"I can't watch Xiyun endure torture..."
As soon as Yu Ningshuang's words came out, it was like a thunderbolt in Lin Fei's ears, Lin Fei was instantly quiet, and only after a while did he say: "What are you talking about, Xiyun is enduring torture, what's going on?" β
Yu Ningshuang covered her eyes, two lines of tears rolled down, crying silently, Yu Ningshuang rarely cried, Lin Fei knew that the situation was strict, and hurriedly helped her to the chair and sat down, "What's wrong, please, say slowly." β
Yu Ningshuang suppressed her sobs, and then said: "As soon as I entered Fuzhou City, I heard someone say that a few days ago, the Qing court stripped off the clothes of a traitor's daughter and put her on a wooden donkey to parade the streets. β
Xiyun was stripped naked by the Qing court and put on a wooden donkey to parade on the street... According to historical records, the wooden donkey is an extremely cruel torture instrument in the Ming and Qing dynasties, specially designed to punish women, there is a wooden stick on the back of the wooden donkey, after the woman rides on the wooden donkey, the wooden stick will pierce into the body, and its severe pain is unimaginable.
When parading through the streets, there were officials who sounded the gong to attract the people to watch, and the people who were bewitched by the Qing court thought that the tortured woman was a heinous person, so they competed to humiliate the tortured woman with evil words, and even threw and beat her with clods of soil and rotten vegetables.
What's even more odious is that the officials will stop every time they walk, and let the people come to the front to watch, and then there will be hooligans and scoundrels who come to the front of the woman, rub their chests and feet, and do everything they can lightly, and the officials are also happy to see this scene, and let it go, poor tortured woman, her arms are cut behind her back, and she can't stop it, and a wooden stick is inserted into her body, and when she moves, she will be in severe pain, and she can only remain motionless, and let others be humiliated with tears.
Lin Fei thought that Xiyun would suffer such humiliation, and in shock, he sat back in his chair, cold sweat came out of his whole body, and Yu Ningshuang continued: "I have seen that kind of thing in Taiwan, the Qing soldiers caught the female soldiers of our tribe back then, and they tortured them with this kind of thing, they are usually soldiers who do not complain of pain or pain, but as soon as they get on the wooden donkey, they scream lifelessly......
"I heard that they tortured Xiyun like this, thinking of the sisters in our tribe who were tortured to death by the Qing soldiers, I couldn't help it anymore, I think Xiyun will definitely be imprisoned in the Yamen of the Fujian and Zhejiang Governor's Mansion, and I just went over, and I wanted to rescue Xiyun, but I didn't know the situation inside, so I didn't dare to go in, and I came back very late, I didn't dare to tell Master SΓΉ about this matter, so I didn't say anything just now."
After Yu Ningshuang finished speaking, she lowered her head and stopped talking, the room was extremely quiet, and you could even hear the sound of Yu Ningshuang's tears falling to the ground.
After I don't know how long, Lin Fei said softly: "Who else knows about this matter?" β
"No one knows, I don't tell anyone about it."
"Okay, don't tell anyone about this yet, understand?" Lin Fei's voice was terrifyingly gloomy, Yu Ningshuang said "Okay", and then persuaded softly: "Master, don't be too sad, listen to the people in the market, Xiyun is ...... She's still alive, and as long as she's alive, she'll get better. β
"I'm fine, I'll avenge Xiyun." Lin Fei clenched his fists, "The Qing court arrested my friends, intercepted my materials, detained my envoys, and insulted my wife, this revenge is not avenged, I call me a man in vain..."
The next day, Lin Fei secretly prepared a revenge plan, and Xiyun's matter was still not told to anyone, and another day later, on November 12, the village chief sent to deliver a letter to Fuzhou City came back and said to Lin Fei in a panic...... Soldiers were sent. β
Lin Fei saw the trembling appearance of the village chief, he was angry and funny, thinking that the Qing court had something to be afraid of, it was all stupid, I occupied their territory for two days, and they didn't know.
At a short time, I saw more than a dozen transport ships sailing out of the mouth of the Minjiang River, each with sails on board, and the Yellow Dragon Flag of the Qing State on the bow, and the Qing army sent a ship powered by sails, Lin Fei couldn't help but feel contempt.
If Lin Fei wants to attack the Qing court, it is easy to defeat the Qing army, and the reason why Lin Fei did not dare to attack the Qing court is mainly because he is afraid of the huge population and vast land of the Qing court, and it is quite troublesome to manage.
Lin Fei ordered the Tianlong ship to go forward to monitor the Qing army transport ship and report the situation of the Qing army transport ship at any time, and twenty minutes later, the Tianlong ship sent a report: "The commander of the Qing army, Zhou Zhenbang, the general soldier of Fujian and Zhejiang, asks to see him." β
Zhou Zhenbang... Lin Fei was shocked when he heard this name, this guy was the chief soldier of Penghu Town in the First Sino-Japanese War, when the Japanese army attacked Penghu, he fled without a fight, and later recovered Penghu by himself, he shamelessly led his troops to Penghu, he had to say that Penghu was the Qing State, and he was ashamed to let Lin Fei and his subordinates withdraw from Penghu, and Lin Fei sent people to pretend to be Japanese soldiers and cleaned up fiercely.
When Zhou Zhenbang faced the fake Japanese soldiers, he was so frightened that he cowered, kowtowed and begged for mercy, he had no soldier's character at all.
Lin Fei instructed: "Bring Zhou Zhenbang to see me." β
It didn't take long for Zhou Zhenbang to come to Lin Fei, at this time, Zhou Zhenbang's face was fatter, his stomach was rounder, and the arrogance on his face had not diminished at all, but as soon as Zhou Zhenbang spoke, Lin Fei was stunned, because Zhou Zhenbang's tone was polite and very polite, and he was like the arrogant and rude guy back then, "Mr. Lin Fei, about what you said about the release of the detained mission, Lord Zhang already knows, and he is willing to discuss with you in person, please deign to move and go to Fuzhou on a certain day." β
Lin Fei's expression changed, and he asked, "The Lord Zhang you are talking about, but Zhang Zhidong, the minister of the Guangxu Emperor and the governor of Liangjiang?" β
