Chapter 33: The Rescue Knife Club
Hundreds of thousands of civilians were driven into barracks and militarized management, and their homes were occupied by the leaders of the Taiping Army.
Wang Feng shook his head, walked inward, and when he came to the main hall, in addition to Yang Xiuqing and a group of East Hall servants, there were also many male and female generals such as Su Sanniang, Hong Xuanjiao, Yang Shuijiao, Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang, and Wei Changhui and Shi Dakai sat around Yang Xiuqing.
After Wang Feng Shili sat down, Yang Xiuqing didn't talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "Do you remember the Shanghai Little Knife Club? Not long ago, I wanted to take refuge in my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and this king also sent General Zhenjiang Luo to respond, but because of the siege of two large camps of the Qing Demon, it was never possible. ”
"Ahem~~" Li Shouchun coughed twice and bowed his hand slightly: "Because the knife will occupy Shanghai, the Qing Demon Jiangnan Battalion's salary source and grain shipping are in an emergency, so the Qing court is in a hurry to transfer troops from the Jiangnan battalion, and Xu Naizhao, the governor of Jiangsu, will go to Shanghai to suppress it.
In addition, it was also heard that the Qing court was negotiating with the consuls of the United States, Britain, and France in Shanghai, trying to use the strength of foreigners. ”
Everyone was in an uproar, and no one expected that the knife would be so useless.
Yang Xiuqing pressed her hands weakly, waited for the noise to stop, and asked again: "Everyone, let's talk about it, do we want to rescue Liu Lichuan." ”
Lin Fengxiang hugged his fists and said: "King Dong, my Taiping Army's Western Expedition to the Northern Expedition is imminent, and the outline brothers still have to be stationed in Zhenjiang Yangzhou, and the troops are stretched, how can they have extra strength to save Liu Lichuan?" What's more, it's not that the outline brothers haven't tried, but they really can't save it, so the general thinks that there is no need to send another troops. ”
Huang Weijiang also took over and said: "At the beginning of Liu Lichuan's occupation of Shanghai, he first claimed to be the generalissimo of the Ming Kingdom's political and religious affairs, and issued a claim that the Ming Kingdom should be prosperous, which shows that it has no relationship with my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, maybe it is because he knows that his strength is insufficient, or he has been instructed by others, and he changed his mind that night and is willing to obey the laws of my Heavenly Kingdom and serve the King of Heaven as the main one, which fully proves that Liu Lichuan is nothing more than taking advantage of the situation to my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. ”
Lu Xianda nodded: "Wei Jiang is reasonable, but Liu Lichuan is still nominally a subordinate of my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and if he ignores it, he will be talked about, so it is better for the East King to issue an edict to him, and give him more praise and praise for the leader of the Xiaodao Congregation headed by Liu Lichuan, so as to strengthen his confidence in sticking to Shanghai." ”
After all, people's hearts are separated from their bellies, and no one sitting there has a friendship with Liu Lichuan, and the knife club is mainly from Fujian, but the main force of the Taiping army comes from Liangguang and Hunan, and there is a geographical barrier.
In the eyes of most people, the relationship between the knife society and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is similar to that between Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, who will destroy the Qing demon in the future, who in this world will have to fight!
Wang Feng arched his hand to Yang Xiuqing: "King Dong, my subordinates think they should be saved!" ”
The East Hall Hu Congjun secretly laughed, because Wang Feng must put forward opinions every time he meets, and his opinions are specifically contrary to the mainstream opinions, and they have never been adopted, and they have invisibly become the negative type of the East Palace, and it has become a joke!
Yang Xiuqing also showed a strange look, and raised his hand slightly: "Let's hear it." ”
Wang Feng Zhengse said: "At the beginning of the Jintian Uprising, the King of Heaven once called on people with lofty ideals in the world to fight the Qing Demon, and the knife will take advantage of the situation, regardless of Liu Lichuan's intentions, at least he is in the name of my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and he has the permission of the King of Heaven and the King of the East to be accepted as a subordinate, and my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is the banner of the world's anti-Qing Dynasty. What will Huaibei twist think? The Northern Expedition must also cooperate with it, if the twist is suspicious of my Taiping Army, I am afraid it will not be conducive to the great cause of the Northern Expedition! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt that there was some truth, especially Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang, who were about to go on the Northern Expedition, and couldn't help but look at each other.
Li Kaifang was puzzled: "Brother Wang, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, invincible in a hundred battles, the situation in Shanghai all comes from Liu Lichuan's one-sided words, what is the truth, we don't know, it is a taboo to send troops rashly, not to mention that my Taiping Heavenly Kingdom really can't draw extra troops." ”
Wang Feng stood up violently and arched his hand heavily: "King Dong, Wang Feng is not talented, I am willing to lead my brothers to fight!" ”
"Wang Feng!" Su Sanniang's face sank suddenly, and she said unhappily: "You only have more than 2,000 troops, and you are all newly attached soldiers, full of calculations, and the drill is only a little more than a month, what role can you play in Shanghai?" Sit down, don't be foolish! ”
"No!" Wang Feng said unrelentingly: "Sister, I know that you have good intentions, and I also know that the strength of my Taiping Army is indeed tight, but for the reputation of the King of Heaven and the King of the East, Liu Lichuan must be saved, and since I and my brothers joined the Taiping Army, we have seen others fighting in the east and west, and we are happy to fight, but we have nothing to do every day, this heart, is both anxious and uneasy!" ”
As he spoke, Wang Feng swept away the generals and said: "Actually, everyone knows their names, the Qing army has almost no status in the Taiping army, but we are also Han people, and we also require progress, who wants to be looked down upon by people in the name of a stubborn man?" I can't say what I like, before the Jintian Uprising, who of you didn't have a pig's tail hanging from the back of his head? This does not explain the problem at all, and at most it can only be understood as the order of righteousness!
Today, I, Wang Feng, asked for life to rescue Liu Lichuan, and I asked for progress, and asked the East King, the North King, the Wing King and the generals to give me and my brothers a chance to make meritorious contributions!
Everyone was greatly moved, they heard his determination from Wang Feng's categorical words, even the first three kings nodded again and again, but Yang Shuijiao hesitated: "Wang Feng, it's a good thing for you to be motivated, it seems that I haven't wasted my efforts during this time, but the situation in Shanghai is complicated, and the Qing army has the advantage of troops, don't be hot-headed, think carefully!" ”
Wang Feng said to Yang Shuijiao: "The soldiers are more expensive than more, I just saved Liu Lichuan from breaking through, not that I have to fight hard with the Qing army, there are fewer people but more flexible, I will find out the situation and then decide to stop, please rest assured that Miss Shuijiao is." ”
"Good!" Yang Xiuqing slapped the table violently: "Wang Feng, since you are seeking to be motivated, the king also promised you, no matter whether you succeed or fail this time, as long as you come back alive, this king will invite the heavenly father to wash away the identity of the recalcitrant son for you and his soldiers!" ”
"Thank you, King Dong!" Wang Feng thanked him.
Hong Xuanjiao also arched his hand: "King Dong, Wang Feng's ambition is commendable, but the army is weaker after all, Xuanjiao is willing to lead a thousand female soldiers to Shanghai with Wang Feng." ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Shuijiao suddenly regretted it, why didn't I expect it, there are more than 1,000 female soldiers under my command!
But Hong Xuanjiao took the lead, if she competed, it would inevitably make people see her fame, so she could only swallow this unwillingness.
