5-29 The Fall of the Patrol Tiger

Liu Ziguang heard that a person with a red scarf with gold edges was arrested near the train station, and immediately thought of the eldest princess, only she can be equipped with such a level of guards, needless to say, it must be the eldest princess and her party are in trouble, he can't care about arresting Chen Ziang, and led the troops to the train station, fortunately, the guards fought hard and finally waited for the arrival of reinforcements.

Liu Ziguang took the lead, rushed to the front with a knife in his hand, and saw the guy with a weapon in his hand, without saying a word, it was a headshot, if the eldest princess encountered something three long and two short, he, the minister of the guard, could not get out of it, and it would be useless to kill more people at that time.

Therefore, Liu Ziguang was in a hurry, after the pistol was emptied, the windmill of the white rainbow knife dance was general, without any fancy frames, and directly cut the people blocking the road into two with weapons, and the soldiers of the brigade followed, and the muskets were like popping beans, and the ruffians and hooligans were okay to bully the widows with the crowd, and they were completely defeated and retreated when they encountered the formed army, and they fled in a hurry, and the tigers who were quite effective in patrolling the city were not good, and they were also preparing to flee along the railway line, and they did not think that Li Peng's Suzhou guards had been outflanked along both ends of the railway line. The Suzhou army relied on the strength of the crowd to intercept the city patrol tigers, and the red shirt regiment chased after them, dozens of muskets were aimed at the city patrol tigers, and shouted loudly: "Squat!" The city patrol tigers were very afraid of this magical killing weapon that could make loud noises and fires, and they did not dare to resist stubbornly, so they threw away their weapons one by one according to the order, and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Liu Ziguang returned the knife into the sheath, ran to the eldest princess in three steps and two steps, and said: "Minister Liu Ziguang is late to save the car, please forgive the princess Chitose." "The eldest princess has also been through several dangers before, but they are all small fights among the local turtles in the countryside, how have I ever seen such a big scene of hundreds of people fighting, not to mention that there are still dead people, she has long been frightened and pale, and now she sees that the main heart is coming, where can I take care of what court etiquette, the monarch and the minister are common, the small mouth is flattened, and the pear blossom brings the rain to Liu Ziguang's arms.

The chief of the guard coughed in embarrassment, turned his face to the side and pretended not to see anything, and the guards also stood in a circle with a very good eye, surrounding the unorthodox princess and Zhenwubo inside.

The eldest princess also made Liu Ziguang a little embarrassed, and the long-term feudal etiquette edification made him less open than Zhu Cheng, who grew up in a lakeside fishing village, but he was a modern person after all, and quickly returned to normal after a short period of embarrassment, patted the eldest princess's back serenely, and said in a slow voice: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

After settling the eldest princess, Liu Ziguang changed his gentle face, and brought the culprit over, the dark green official uniforms of the city patrol tigers have been torn into strips, and their bodies are also stained with blood, and it is not an ordinary character who can be a city patrol tiger, they are all very tough, and they are unwilling to kneel to Liu Ziguang with their necks.

Liu Ziguang was not interested in interrogating them, the matter was clear, gathering a crowd to attack the princess Luanjia, this alone was enough to kill their heads, not to mention that they also killed a large internal guard from the Red Shirt Regiment.

"The prisoner smashed his knees, put on the pipa bone and imprisoned them, and when I leveled the governor's yamen, I scraped them alive, and the accomplices were beheaded on the spot!"

Rows of city patrol tigers were escorted to the platform to be beheaded, and it was too late to resist, and the head of Dahao fell to the railway with the swing of the steel knife, and the blood spurting out of the cavity stained the sleepers and gravel red, and the railway became a bloody road.

Those who followed the coaxing of the gangsters and hooligans have also reached the big mold, and now it is too late to regret it, waiting for them is the severe punishment of beheading, these people have occupied the railway station for a long time to do evil, and have harmed many people, and now it is also retribution, and for a while, the Shanghai railway station has become a hell on earth, the head is rolling, and the blood is permeated. Fortunately, the eldest princess had already been arranged to leave in the carriage, otherwise she would have been frightened again.

"It is a great achievement that a few of you fought bloodily to save the princess." Liu Ziguang patted the head of the guard on the shoulder and praised.

"Humble duty is just responsibility, if it weren't for a heroine to help, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to last that long." The chief guard said that he looked around for the woman, but there was still a woman in a huge train station.

"My lord, please look at this, I found it from the beams of the house." A soldier held a delicate small crossbow bow, Liu Ziguang took it and looked at it, this is an eccentric pulley wire crossbow, the force required for winding is very small, but the shooting force is very sufficient, there is also an adjustable optical sight on the crossbow, such an advanced weapon, not to mention the people in the rivers and lakes, that is, the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty The Red Shirt Regiment is not equipped, Liu Ziguang turned over and over and observed, there is now a row of small Arabic numeral numbers on the crossbow beam, take the arrows pulled out from the city patrol tiger and put them into the arrow groove of the crossbow to try, It seems that this mysterious woman is a member of a certain organization, and it is difficult to determine whether this organization is friend or foe at present.

Don't worry about any heroine first, there are more important things to do now, the City Patrol Street Division is a direct agency of Shanghai Dao, and the crime of intercepting and attacking Princess Luan must of course be counted on the head of Shanghai Dao, Liu Ziguang has decided to use this matter to sweep the governor's yamen, and solve Cheng Liangjue in a quick way, there are too many things and people involved in Shanghai, and it is too troublesome and slow to solve it slowly, he can't afford to wait and doesn't want to wait.

"The whole team, the Governor of Bing's yamen!" Lord Chincha turned on his horse and led a team of bloodstained and murderous soldiers to hurry to the governor's yamen. came to stand by outside the governor's yamen, Liu Ziguang asked people to find a chair to sit in the yamen, and someone behind him raised an umbrella to cover the sun and serve fragrant tea.

The officers under his command lined up behind the adults with the handles of their swords, staring fiercely at the governor's yamen, whose vermilion lacquer gate was closed and silent inside. Liu Ziguang sat with a golden knife, he was waiting for information, waiting for the information from the governor's yamen.

The information came from the eavesdropping device installed in the governor's yamen, and the things that Cheng Liangjue discussed with the masters fell into the ears of the eavesdroppers at all, and they were sorted into words and passed to him as a reference for decision-making. At this time, the army is approaching, and I don't know how the guys from the governor's yamen are panicking.

After a while, the eavesdropper presented the information, Liu Ziguang did not give the order to attack after reading it, the intelligence said that Cheng Liangjue did not seem to be worried about Liu Ziguang's imminent attack, but confidently transferred the soldiers defending the governor's yamen, the specific reason is unknown, after all, the role of the eavesdropper is limited, not all intelligence can be heard.

Sure enough, there was a commotion in the direction of the port, and there was a report from Tanmalay, saying that a large group of foreign armed sailors had landed and were heading this way, and the number was several thousand, and in addition, thousands of armed men were also driven out of the Song Dynasty settlement in Shanghai, and the infantry and naval divisions of Shanghai Province were also moving in the direction of the governor's yamen, and it seemed that they wanted to gather and annihilate Liu Ziguang here.

"Actually recruited foreign intervention forces! This Cheng Liangjue is really daring! Liu Ziguang slapped the armrest of the chair and was furious: "Since he wants to come hard, then we will be harder than anyone else!" Array, meet the enemy! ”

Shanghai is an international port, the ocean-going merchant ships are equipped with weapons in order to guard against pirates, and the ocean-going sailors are tough guys who come and go in the wind and waves, these people are soldiers when they pick up weapons, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, but these people are not the people of the Ming Dynasty after all, so they are rampant on the streets of Shanghai with knives and guns, and they are too inconspicuous to take the imperial court seriously.

The armed sailors were dressed in strange clothes, holding long swords and scimitars, hooks and chains, and drove over with various flags, and stopped when they walked to a stone's throw away from Liu Ziguang and them, and they didn't know what they were talking about, and the people and horses who drove over in the other direction were the people and horses of the Song Kingdom, these people were mainly short, black and thin Nanyang natives, but they all had strong muscles, irritable eyes, and neat clothes and weapons. The two groups of men and horses formed a horn momentum and surrounded Liu Ziguang's men and horses.

The two groups of foreign armed forces sent representatives to Liu Ziguang for dialogue, and submitted to him a letter of protest signed by the maritime merchants, protesting that Liu Ziguang had caused a bloody storm on the Shanghai Beach, which had led to a deadlock in their business, and now they strongly demanded that Lord Qincha retract his order, release all the imprisoned officials of the city and ship department, and promise not to embarrass Governor Cheng again, so that they would not accept their troops and return to the ship.

"Fuck you guys, this is the internal affairs of the Ming Dynasty, do you understand? Interfering in the internal affairs of other countries is a very unfriendly act, what are you doing with this posture? Intimidation by force? ”

The representative of the armed sailors was a one-eyed dragon with a European three-cornered hat, he spoke Chinese very well, and behaved in a gentlemanly manner, took off the big hat with feathers and put it on his chest elegantly, bowed, and said softly and firmly: "If Your Excellency thinks so, it can be regarded as a demonstration of force." ”

"What nationality are you?" Liu Ziguang asked.

"I am Van Persie, captain of the tulip merchant ship in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and we have in our ranks the valiant Spaniards, the romantic French, the old-fashioned English, the Portuguese, the Japanese, and the Swedes."

"Plus the people of the Song Dynasty, just make up the Eight-Nation Alliance, don't talk nonsense, even if you let the horses come, let's see a real chapter on the swords and guns."

Captain Van Persie shrugged his shoulders regretfully, put his hat straight, and went back with a slender saber, and the envoy from the Song Kingdom didn't say anything, glanced at Liu Ziguang coldly, turned his head and left.

"It's time to go." Liu Ziguang whispered to Anthony behind him, several of his generals have secretly led troops to Shanghai, and now everything is under control, several nearby houses have infiltrated the troops of the Red Shirt Regiment, countless bazookas are aimed at the Eight-Nation Alliance, hundreds of muskets are also stuffed with gunpowder and lead pellets, waiting to open meat, and Zamuhe's cavalry has also reached the nearby block, and when they see the cannon, they will rush over, and use sabers to wash all the remnants of the enemy under the artillery fire.
