Chapter 945: The Monarch Grabs Grace, This Life Is Not Enough
Hey...... Does this seem like a real madness?
"What brother? Alliance! Ji is the horse forerunner of the Alliance! Tens of millions of people with lofty ideals in the Alliance, from all over the world, are all brothers! ”
When it comes to the alliance again, the generals trembled in their hearts, Gao Cheng threw their Henan Sanbiao artillery battalion in the Daimyo's mansion, in fact, he knew that there was a Guangfu meeting belonging to the alliance in the artillery battalion, which was no longer reliable, and only sent them these infantry battalions to attack Cizhou. Now the alliance will target them again, does this mean that the Daimyo's mansion is ......
The generals looked at each other, and there was a consensus in a moment, although it was not allowed to be Yinghua, there was no need to cut off the way back, what if he ran away and was caught in time? This alliance seems to be powerful, and it is still charging forward for the restoration of the Anglo-Chinese court, so don't offend.
loosened the tie, and the generals politely rejected Ji Huang and wanted to send him out.
"Ji Mou advises you, it is when you atone for your sins, you should not ignore the will of heaven and isolate yourself from Huaxia!"
Ji Huang's temperament was obviously not a suitable lobbyist, and after handing over a hard-line ultimatum, he walked away.
Just when the generals were sighing for this sentence and felt that they had long lost the opportunity, unexpectedly, this Ji Huang had just come out of the account, and suddenly turned his head and raised his arms and shouted: "Generals are really righteous soldiers!" ”
Not only were the generals stunned, but the officers and soldiers who were about to watch the good show of rectifying the poor outside were also stunned, not knowing what this guy was playing.
Then Ji Huang made the generals in the tent scatter with a voice, "The generals are willing to go south to Yinghua, and they want to take everyone to rescue the people of Cizhou, and congratulate the generals for their benevolence and righteousness!" Congratulations to the general for his wise choice! ”
The generals roared and were about to ask their cronies to take down the madman, but they heard a wave of cheers outside the tent, wave after wave......
When the Chinese accountant also looked at each other excitedly. The adjutant generals, staff generals, and guerrillas in the tent have no faces, they are unwilling to surrender to the south, and they can still calm the morale of the army, but this green battalion of soldiers put together by the three standards of Henan Governor, Ti, and Fu, everyone has no will to fight. said that it was to attack Cizhou, but in fact, he had been squatting in the north of Cizhou to watch the play, and everyone was panicking and didn't know where to go. Now Ji Huang is just screaming, and the lid that suppressed the army's heart is actually broken like this, is it ridiculous. Not at all.
The officers and soldiers poured into the military tent one after another to thank them, and their faces were full of admiration that the generals had never seen.
Outside the big tent, Ji Huang took out a feather fan and shook it leisurely, looking at the air. It seems that he wants to soar into an immortal.
Ji Huang is a native of Jiangnan, who considers himself a descendant of Ji Kang, and forms a "leisure club" with some people who admire the style of famous men and women of the Wei and Jin dynasties, calling himself a "person in the idle road", and regards those scholars who enter the office, business, join the army and enter the temple as ordinary people. They spend all day immersed in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In order to find inspiration, sometimes I have to eat some opium and let loose the skeleton to the extreme. With the name of retro school, he is actually avant-garde, and he is a controversial figure in the country.
But they were not born scholars in the Wei and Jin dynasties after all, although they only wanted to be free. But he still has the world in his heart. As active members of the League, they like to go it alone and go to the most difficult things to do. Now that tens of thousands of people in Cizhou are worried, he Ji Huang grabbed ahead of his colleagues, and actually "convinced" the Qing soldiers besieging Cizhou in one fell swoop.
"Actually...... I can still compare with Su Qin and Zhang Yi. ”
Ji Huang thought smugly, the corners of his mouth curled.
"What man!?"
"Still drawing, it's a red-clothed spy!"
South of Cizhou City, in a messy camp. The ragged people, who couldn't tell whether they were ordinary people or bandits, were interrogating a few men in Yinghua clothes.
"We are newspaper people! I'm here to collect wind. Why catch us! ”
"Newspaper painter, quick pen, newspaper! You don't know what the newspaper is!? ”
These people shouted awe-inspiringly, making those mud legs suddenly a little shorter, and the newspaper ...... I think I've heard of it.
When one person pulled out the things that had been crumpled together and unfolded them into a stack of notices printed with dense words, the knees of those thieves suddenly weakened, even if they were united fists, they did not dare to list the newspaper as an evil thing, and even regarded the Manchu newspaper printed with the article on the crusade against Yinghua as a treasure, thinking that these articles that were known to the world were written by these big men in front of him, he was immediately ashamed of himself. Of course, they couldn't figure out that there was a distinction between north and south in this newspaper......
After being worried for a while, some people took the lead in bending their knees and beating thousands, calling them lords, and others did the same, and suddenly fell to their knees, so that these newspaper people were also stunned.
"Okay, we're not officials, we just want to come and see the suffering in Cizhou, since you're here, I'll ask ......"
The team leader should be a tooth head (interviewing reporters), and he started working subconsciously.
"We all came with us, they robbed us of our belongings and burned down our houses, where else can we go? With them, you can also get a share of food, and you can get a little bit of it if you grab something. ”
"Why kill people in the city? They said that they were demons, and that they had been killed by the south, and that if they were not killed, God would not have rained, and nothing would have grown in the fields. ”
This is a group of refugees who were coerced by bandits, not only them, but the bandits surrounding outside Cizhou City, except for a few thousand cores, all of them came from this way, and they didn't know why they were fighting.
The newspaper people were quite excited, they had first-hand interview information this time, and they were discussing how to make a report that shocked a country, when suddenly someone said: "These people are just trying to survive, the good karma of the League has set up a refugee camp in the Xinxiang area, we can take them over, and the people of Cizhou can be saved!" ”
The team leader subconsciously said: "We are newspaper people!" How can a reporter interfere if he only reports things? ”
As soon as the words fell, he saw that everyone was staring at him, he paused for a moment, slapped himself and slapped himself.
"We are people first, then Chinese people, and then we are people!"
"Our "Orthodox Daily" has also joined the Alliance, don't forget the righteousness of the people!"
"Don't forget what Mr. Ai Yinzhen said, people do not distinguish between north and south, and they cannot act in benevolence and righteousness, we have to be people-oriented, benevolence first!"
The crowd soon came to a common understanding and began to discuss how to act. As newspaper people, they are experts in how to make these ignorant people believe in them and achieve the best communication effect. It didn't take long for rumors of a place to live and food to the south spread in the ten-mile camp outside Cizhou City.
April 20. Xu Zhien walked towards Cizhou City with one foot deep and one foot shallow, the clothes on his body had been rotten into strands of cloth, all kinds of scars were all over his body, his lips were dry, and his eyes were hollow. Like The Walking Dead.
He was completely desperate, kneeling on the ground in Xinxiang and crying, but still did not get a response from the red clothes, the people of the Heaven and Earth Society could not find it, and the people of the Heavenly Temple shook their heads when they heard that it was the White Lotus Sect. He asked for help this time to get nothing, he betrayed the trust of the Holy Aunt, and the lives of tens of thousands of people in Cizhou were about to be lost in his hands.
What else could he do? There is only one left to return to Cizhou, and he lives and dies with the Holy Aunt and the people, he has been taught by the Holy Aunt since he was a child, and the title of the Holy Aunt is just a habit, in fact, he is respected as a teacher as a Holy Aunt. What the Holy Aunt asks for is also what he asks. Shenggu's trust in Yinghua also supported him to seek support everywhere in the south.
But the result is so cruel, it seems that Yinghua really abandoned them, I don't know when Shenggu faces such a reality. Will there be blood and tears......
Gradually marching into the camp of the besieging city, the bandits really haven't left yet, calculating the situation in Cizhou City before leaving, now is also the time of food shortage.
didn't dare to see the disappointment of the holy aunt, and didn't dare to see the tragic situation in Cizhou City, Xu Zhien walked in a daze. Waiting for the sword to come, he whispered in his heart, Holy Aunt. Zhi'en is back, big guy, Zhi'en is back, but he didn't have the face to see you, so he died under this city, and I will meet you again in the underworld.
Go, go, go. Before I knew it, I had entered the camp of the bandits. What he saw in front of him made Xu Zhien touch his eyes several times, suspecting that he was wrong.
Empty camps, empty camps, messes all over the ground, there is everything, there is no one.
Looking left and right, according to the rare drum noise, and then looking at the city, there are also densely populated people, Xu Zhien's heart suddenly set off a storm, is it reinforcements coming?
At the head of the city, Xu Wumei, who was still dressed as a doctor, was also blinking constantly, as if she didn't believe what she was seeing at all.
Since yesterday, there has been a great commotion outside the city, and they thought that the bandits and Tartars were going to attack the city, and the whole city was mobilized, and both men and women went up to the city wall, and they were ready to fight to the death.
Unexpectedly, after a night of noise, no one approached the city wall. By early morning, the bandit camps in the south and east were empty, and there were still tens of thousands of bandits in the west. But the bandits seemed to be making a fuss, and the camp was full of shouting and fighting.
Is it reinforcements coming, or is it a civil strife among bandits!?
The situation is unknown, everyone still doesn't dare to go out of the city, and the bandits in the west are old bandits, most of them are gathered by Xu Wumei when she first got up.
But after all, the situation has changed, Cizhou has been pulled out of the Jedi, and now he can only sit and watch the chaos outside the city. Thinking that after half a month, there was finally a little hope of getting out of trouble, and many people choked up.
It didn't take long for the exclamations to sound again, and Xu Wumei also covered her mouth, her eyes full of fear.
Tartar, Tartar called......
Billowing smoke and dust pressed from the north, and the figures of Tartar soldiers could be seen in the gap between the smoke and dust, and thousands of people were in a vast range, as if they were going to join up with the bandits and attack the city.
Xu Wumei almost bit her cherry lips, this is the last moment.
"There are no thieves on the other three sides, so let's get out of the city and flee quickly!"
She is resolute, although she knows that under the pursuit, most of the people still can't escape the doom, but there is always a glimmer of hope, and it is better to fight for each one than to die in the city.
"Get me a dagger......"
She commanded the maid with her, and the little girl shook her head vigorously, and tears flew out, like the hope of the whole city, and fell to the ground and mingled with the dust.
Then the exclamation was even higher, but the taste changed.
"The Tartars are fighting bandits! They are infighting! ”
"Holy aunt! We are saved! ”
As everyone said, the Tartar soldiers outside the city actually opened a battle formation facing the bandits, and the small artillery muskets roared continuously, and the bandits were in a great rout.
"No, that's not a Tartar, they must have done it anyway!"
Xu Wumei corrected everyone's salutation, and the words were passed down one by one, and after a while, there was a cheer in the city.
After a little and a half hours, there was already smoke and dust outside the city, and I don't know what the result was, when someone suddenly reported that there was a large group of Tartars in the east, the army was neat, and the cannon was dragged. It must have been the elite Tartars who came from the Daimyo's Mansion to attack them.
On April 20, in the early afternoon, Cizhou City was like a big bazaar that had not been seen in a century, and the hearts of Xu Wumei and the people in the city were also up and down. Echoing back and forth, always without rest, such a sudden change of joy and sorrow is very bearable, and many old and infirm people have fainted early. Xu Wumei carries the fate of tens of thousands of people, and her heart is already very strong. But until now, his face is already blue, and he has to hold his heart, like a sick Shih.
The Tartar soldiers from the east turned out to be reinforcements, and it took a lot of effort to figure out the situation. Together with the Qing soldiers in the north of the city, they flanked the bandits. Not long after, a large number of people came from the northeast, wearing red scarves, which must be reinforcements, but they regarded the Qing army as an enemy army anyway, and there was a small conflict between the two sides.
After that, it was even more chaotic, and teams of people kept coming. There were people, merchants, and Tartar soldiers, and the bandits in the west had already fled in the west, and the city was surrounded by dozens of troops and civilians with a total of no less than forty or fifty thousand. But they don't know where they came.
"It's reinforcements! It's all reinforcements! ”
Xu Zhien was embellished in the city, and when he saw Xu Wumei, he shouted excitedly.
"It was the people from all walks of life led by the Alliance who gathered here to save us!"
Xu Zhien's cheers were like the final verdict, and the haze that shrouded Xu Wumei and the people of the city dissipated.
"I knew, I knew, the army was coming. will come to our rescue! ”
Xu Wumei shouted with tears in her eyes, she finally did it, she finally saved these tens of thousands of people who were dedicated to Yinghua!
"Uh...... Something is wrong with the following......"
Cheering. Someone calmly explained the current situation, yes, there are all reinforcements below, but the way is complicated, everyone has not contacted each other, and there is a lot of smoke and dust. It seems that there is still a conflict, this is a big water that washed the Dragon King Temple.
This is not to blame for the reinforcements from all walks of life. The alliance is a fraternity, there is no strict organization at all, a big net is spilled out, people from all walks of life are stirring up, flocking to Cizhou City, there is no care for each other, let alone any scheduling, misunderstandings are continuous, and everyone is on guard.
"I have to get out and let them all stop, but I can't hurt my own people!"
Xu Wumei is very anxious, how can she let her life-saving benefactor fight in the city because of a misunderstanding, there are really deaths and injuries, and she will not be at ease for the rest of her life.
The subordinates and the people stopped her, this one said it was too dangerous, and that one said it was unnecessary, when Xu Wumei was patiently persuading them, she heard a higher wave of cheers outside the city, which was a series of shouts that came and went, as if something terrible was being staged around the city.
"Hooray! Banzai! ”
"Long live Your Majesty!"
"Long live my emperor!"
Listen carefully, it is such a cheer, everyone is anxious to look, not long after, a neat horse team as a person around, about 100 people, the horse is a white horse, the person is a red and black military uniform, the saber in the hand, with the warm spring light, a big flag in the horse team in the wind, big red background, in the middle is a golden double dragon. Next to the flag, there is also a festival flag that symbolizes the killing of dogs.
This uniform, this banner and the big one, as long as you know a little about the British and Chinese affairs, can understand at a glance, the person is the guard in front of the Holy Dao Emperor, the big flag is the British Chinese flag, and the big flag is the military order symbol of the Northern Expedition camp, all three things are on the same page, which symbolizes the emperor's personal arrival.
As soon as the emperor's army came out, people from all walks of life packed up and arrived, and there was no more chaos under the city, and at the head of the city, Xu Wumei and the people pinched the city bricks, and they were all crying, the emperor is here! The Emperor has come to their rescue! First the compatriots of the Alliance, and then the emperor, the Yinghua Celestial Dynasty really did not give up on them......
Li Xi went to Cizhou?
Of course not, it was just his military guard of honor, when Cizhou was relieved, Yanzhou was camping, and Li Xianzheng threw a newspaper to Chen Wance.
"I want to hear your explanation, why didn't I report it?"
Li Shi was not angry, but puzzled: "I still want to know, why did you change your original intention when the alliance moved, and it was convenient for them, and I wanted me to send a guard of honor over quickly?" ”
It wasn't until the honor guard was dispatched that Li Xi knew that there was such a thing.
Chen Wance smiled faintly, there was both helplessness and regret in the smile, and he could see a trace of relief, he only replied: "The people have risen, and the country cannot be reversed, but at this time it is not a country of all people, and the hearts of the people can only be collected here by Your Majesty first." ”
These words were very vague, Li Xian didn't understand much, and was about to dig deeper, Sanniang hurriedly entered, holding a newspaper in her hand, it was Lei Xiang's "Yuexiu Times", and the front page was "Cizhou Wanmin Checkmate".
Chen Wance hurriedly retreated, and Sanniang frowned and said, "This Xu Shenggu...... What does it have to do with the Mi Wu Niang in Jiangnan before? ”
Li Shi shrugged, how did he know, this had to ask the Heaven and Earth Association or the Ministry of Military Intelligence. However, Sanniang's question, he also became interested. The guard of honor was sent out, which symbolized that the emperor had come forward to save Xu Shenggu, a group of people, and according to the procedure, he had to meet with him to show comfort.
"Come with me......"
Li Xian said casually, Mi Wuniang's pretty face rose in his mind again, but it was already very blurry, and the other face was still the face of a little girl in her early tens, and he had been thrown out of the clouds at all.
