Chapter 13 Zhou Xiuying persuaded her father to rebel
Li Chunfa saw that the vanguard had successfully attacked the city, and proudly ordered: "Go and report to His Royal Highness the King of Han: On September 27, our army has captured Kunshan County!" More than 2,000 Qing troops in the city were annihilated. ”
"The whole army is in the city!"
……
Zhang Yuliang was covered in blood, feeling that Shorthair seemed to be unable to kill, one after another surrounded him, and once again hacked the enemy who wanted to kill him, Zhang Yuliang supported himself with a knife, watched Shorthair retreat, a row of musketeers surrounded him, laughed, blood flowed out of his mouth, and pointed a knife at them unconvinced, who knew that he couldn't even hold the knife, and even fell down with a knife.
Li Yun found that there were blood stains in many places from the entrance to the city gate to the county yamen, and asked Li Chunfa, who was following behind, "It seems that the Qing army is resisting very resolutely, how many casualties are our army?" ”
Li Chunfa had already counted the casualties, and immediately said: "Our Second Division suffered 359 casualties, of which 240 were killed and 119 were wounded, anyway, there were 339 Xiangyong and 58 casualties. Among them, the Qing demon Zhang Yuliang was the most ferocious, leading 100 people to defend the county office, killing and injuring more than 80 people in a battalion, and was captured by the musket team at the very end, and now he is locked in prison, does His Royal Highness want to see him. After speaking, he added: "But that guy is fierce and tight, and he has been shouting in prison, and the last general thinks that his shouting is too ugly, and he ordered someone to break his jaw." ”
Li Yunzhong was really not interested in this kind of stubborn resistance, and said casually: "Since you don't want to surrender, let's kill it." ”
"Is there any news from the Qing army in Qingpu County? Whether the man named Zhou Lichun is willing to make an accident or not, our army will attack Qingpu County and Jiading County tomorrow, if he has not decided, I am afraid that he will throw himself into the Qing army. Li Yunzhong asked Zhao Laoqi, who was following behind.
Zhao Laoqi really didn't expect Kunshan County to be captured so quickly, and he knew that Lu Dao personally rushed to Jiading and Qingpu counties to contact them, which is better than not knowing anything now. ”
Li Yunzhong turned his head and glanced at Zhao Laoqi, "We must determine this matter before our army attacks the city, so as not to hurt the innocent, my Han and the Heaven and Earth Society still have a very close relationship, there are Luo Outline, Su Sanniang in the front, Jiao Liang, He Lu and others in the back, with them as examples, I believe that Liu Lichuan and others will come to us." ”
Zhao Laoqi said: "The last general understands, I will sneak into Shanghai tomorrow with makeup and contact Liu Lichuan and them in person." ”
Qingpu County
Zhou Xiuying looked at her father, who was still hesitating, and persuaded: "Dad, when is it now, you are still hesitating, when His Royal Highness the King of Han captures Shanghai, what else will happen to us!" ”
Listening to his daughter's complaints, Zhou Lichun said helplessly: "Girl, why don't you understand, rebel!" This is related to the life and death of thousands of people, if the uprising fails, our Jiading Heaven and Earth will definitely be uprooted by the Qing army, and I don't know how many people will fall to the ground. ”
"Rebellion is inherently risky, in recent years, the imperial court has repeatedly increased taxes, in vain will be our hard work to harvest the grain, there have long been people dissatisfied, as long as you raise your arms, without His Royal Highness the King of Han to send troops, you can drive away the Qing army in the city, besides, now the Han Dynasty is attacking the city, invincible, the army of the court has been defeated again and again, like this, a few years later, the world will not know who it is! Now that we are applying for the Han King as soon as possible, we can also let the brothers in the meeting find a career. Zhou Xiuying analyzed
Zhou Lichun couldn't help but nod his head again and again when he heard his daughter's analysis, "I think it's better to call all the leaders over together and discuss it, and it's up to them to decide whether to oppose or not." ”
Zhou Xiuying smiled proudly, opened the door and said, "Uncles and uncles, come in, my father has already agreed to get up." ”
Zhou Lichun looked at the brothers who were rushing in, and wondered: "Do you really agree to the incident?" This is a head-killing business, and if you do it, you can't go back. ”
"Brother Zhou, you just took us against his mother, Lao Tzu has long been unaccustomed to Yu Longguang's doggy, and has repeatedly embarrassed us."
"Yes, Brother Zhou, now that King Han has come to Suzhou in person, isn't this our chance to make meritorious contributions!"
"I, Lao Wan, will serve Brother Zhou, and I won't listen to anyone."
………………
Zhou Lichun was also said to be angry, and said: "The court is unkind, then don't blame us for being unjust, it's against his mother." ”
There was a knock on the door, everyone immediately quieted down, looked at each other, everyone found a weapon in hand, stood in a row and held their breath, Zhou Xiuying saw that everyone was ready, so he said to the door: "Come in!" ”
"Ah......h Yes...... It's me, a small defeat...... Don't fight, your own people. ”
Zhou Xiuying was careful, and when she heard the voice of Qin Xiaoluo, who was on guard outside, she hurriedly stopped everyone and said, "It's Qin Xiaoluo, not a spy!" Don't fight, it's your own people. ”
Zhou Lichun took a closer look, and sure enough, it was Qin Xiaosheng, looking at Qin Xiaosheng who was still trembling in the corner, and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, it's better to report when you come in, Lao Tzu thought it was the Qing soldiers who came to arrest us!" ”
Qin Xiaoru stood up with grinned teeth and said aggrievedly: "I knocked on the door, knocked several times!" Why did you beat me as soon as you came in? What am I doing wrong? ”
Zhou Xiuying comforted: "It's us who recognized the wrong person, what's the matter with you?" Didn't you tell you to keep watch outside? ”
Ignoring his injuries, Qin Xiaofu said excitedly: "Brothers, I heard that Kunshan County was captured by the King of Han, and there were a few defeated soldiers who fled back from Kunshan at the gate just now, they said it themselves. ”
Zhou Lichun was surprised: "Really? It was captured in less than a day, and I heard that Zhang Yuliang's guy is very capable of fighting, and it is really difficult to deserve under the fame! ”
Zhou Xiuying smiled happily and retorted: "Doesn't this prove that the army of the King of Han is invincible, as long as we follow His Royal Highness the King of Han, we will definitely be able to be a founding hero in the future." ”
"You little Y-headed Sichun, look at the excitement of the Han King." Lao Wan teased
Zhou Xiuying crossed her hands and said, "I just fell in love with His Royal Highness the King of Han, what's wrong?" Can't you? ”
Zhou Lichun looked at his daughter helplessly and said, "Look at what you can!" I should have found a family to marry you, who is His Royal Highness the King of Han? He can take a fancy to you, a farmer's Y head. ”
Zhou Xiuying also felt that as the King of Han, she must be surrounded by many beauties, and she didn't necessarily like herself, so she still refused to admit defeat and said: "Then I will also find a hero like King Han to marry." ”
Zhou Lichun motioned for Qin Xiaofu to continue to let go, and said: "Since Kunshan has been captured by the King of Han, without further ado, we will start tonight, there are less than 1,000 defenders in the city, but there are more than 3,000 people in our Heaven and Earth Society!" It will definitely be possible to expel the Qing army from Lu before dawn. ”
When everyone heard about tonight's incident, no one objected, and a man dressed like a farmer said, "Since it is night, we can set fire to the city and pretend to be the Han army to enter the city, the Qing army has already lost its fear, and must not dare to fight and flee from the city." ”
Zhou Lichun said: "Okay, just do it, Xiuying, you will rush to Kunshan after dawn, and ask the King of Han to send troops to hand over in case the Qing army in the direction of Jiaxing counterattacks, and we can't resist it." ”
