11-57 Lanzhou Uprising

For Liu Ziguang, Lanzhou is a city full of hostility, because there are few Han people here, and the red-shirts do not feel the feeling of being welcomed by the people, but indifferent and hateful eyes, because Liu Ziguang banned most of the livelihood in the mall was cut off, only the tavern was crowded with drunken laid-off swordsmen, the city was vigilant, and the fights were frequent, and even the attacks on the army were frequent.

Therefore, Liu Ziguang made great efforts to rectify the law and order, and confiscated spears, halberds and crossbows, and it was strictly forbidden to carry swords of more than one foot in length in the city, and the heavy punishment of brawlers was also somewhat effective for a while, but Liu Ziguang knew that where there was oppression, there would be resistance, and it would not work to rule Lanzhou by high-pressure policies, and the only way to let these citizens who were not of my race settle down was to let them rest completely.

Lanzhou has 100,000 people, less than 20% of the Han people, and most of them are low-level people, the politics and economy of Lanzhou City are in the hands of the Turks and Uighurs, the Red Shirts have liberated Lanzhou City peacefully, and the strength of these big businessmen is still the same, if they want to raise any waves, it is simply too simple.

In the past few days, all the merchants in the city have jointly written a petition asking the court to open the favor and resume the trade route, but Liu Ziguang was unmoved, because the ban on commerce is a national policy, in order to fight the Western Xia, someone must make sacrifices, and besides, these slippery businessmen are not reliable, let them go freely, if they can't keep it, they will report to the Xixia people or something, so Liu Ziguang accepted the gifts from others, did not do anything at all, and beat them up in a few words.

The city is very calm, under the high pressure of the Red Shirts, even those brave and ruthless swordsmen dare not show their heads easily, they can only fight in the tavern outside the city and make trouble, today there is a brawl in the Longmen Inn outside the city, and Liu Ziguang has heard about it, not only because there are swordsmen carrying hundreds of heads to receive the reward, but he also heard the detailed report of the Heaven and Earth Society.

At this time, Wen Pei has been arranged in the back house of the general of the expedition to the west, Lanzhou Xingyuan, Dong Xiaowan led the two maids to personally serve Dai Wenpei's daily life, speaking of the identities of the two women are quite similar, Dong Xiaowan is a middle-class family in Suzhou, and later fell into the dust, Wen Pei was born in a martial arts family, to be precise, the level of the underworld is not high, the two are both Liu Ziguang's concubines, compared to other princesses, queens, khans or something, the common language of the two of them is inevitably more.

Liu Ziguang Zhengxi originally had no women around him eating, drinking, and dressing, all of them were a few stupid soldiers serving men, after all, they were not as careful as women, since Dong Xiaowan came to Lanzhou, Liu Ziguang deeply felt this, in fact, Dong Xiaowan is not only more careful than men, but also compared to those good wives and good mothers, cooking, washing clothes, taking care of children, and even being a secretary to copy documents, palm lamp, wax or something, Liu Ziguang is busy outside, and one day back to the house, hug his goddaughter, eat some side dishes, drink some wine, and sleep with the charming Dong family at night, for Liu Ziguang, who is thousands of miles away from home, Dong Xiaowan's role is really greatใ€‚

And Dai Wenpei, not to mention, the standing people of the Heaven and Earth Society, no matter where the Red Shirts hit, the heroes of the Heaven and Earth Society followed where they searched for intelligence, and sometimes played a greater role than Nanchang, and all of this was handled by Dai Wenpei.

In the back house, Dai Wenpei and Dong Xiaowan were sitting and talking, although the two sympathized with each other, they still secretly competed and talked about their contributions to the master, and both of them couldn't stop their small mouths, one was Wu Nong's soft language, and the other was an authentic Beijing film.

In terms of eloquence, Dong Xiaowan is slightly better, saying that now the master has thousands of troops, and the heaven and earth will meet these people, and Dai Wenpei, as a woman of the master, often shows her face and is born and dies, this is not to help, but to add chaos, just imagine that one day, if Dai Wenpei is captured by the enemy, wouldn't it give the enemy the capital to blackmail the master?

Dai Wenpei was speechless for a while, and was not convinced, when suddenly a personal soldier came to report: "The marshal ordered, I am afraid that there will be war tonight, please take refuge in the house and do not go out." โ€

This is Lanzhou City, 108,000 miles away from the Xixia people, how can there be a war, and listening to this tone, I am afraid that this war will be born in the city, Dong Xiaowan can be frightened, and Dai Wenpei's face appeared with a smug smile: "Sister Dong, don't be afraid that I am here, and those thieves can't hurt you half a hair." โ€

Liu Ziguang has been reliably reported that the big businessmen in the city have plotted **, they have smuggled a large number of weapons into the city, and even bought thousands of idle swordsmen, as long as they enter the city empty-handed, and receive weapons from Wei Chiguang, they can rebel, and they have also contacted some frustrated officers in the surrendered army**, together, they will also take the opportunity to mutiny, fight back, and deal with the Red Shirts.

There are only 10,000 red shirts and 5,000 Hui troops near Lanzhou who can be used, and they are facing tens of thousands of caravans, armed men and swordsmen with rich combat experience, as well as 100,000 unstable railway soldiers, and horse thieves in the desert.

After discussing the details of the incident with the leaders of several other large caravans in the city, Yu Chiguang returned to the mansion to meet Qijian, as a merchant walking in the Western Regions, Yu Chiguang naturally knew the name of Qijian, and also knew how much help these seven people would bring to his actions, he had just returned home and had not even had time to change his shoes, so he ran to the small courtyard where Qijian was staying, and when he came to the door, he met the servant at home delivering food, so Wei Chiguang took the tray of food and came to deliver food to Qijian in person.

Wei Chiguang has an advantage, that is, Corporal Lixian does not have the slightest shelf of a rich man, he respectfully sent the wine and rice to the table, and did not want to leave, personally served tea and water, and served the heroes to eat, except for the snow lotus seeds hiding in the room and not coming out, the other six people all sat down at the table to eat, they did not realize that the slightly older servant in front of him was Yu Chiguang himself, he just beat him back and said that there was no need to serve Yu Chiguang, where was he willing to go, saying that the master had explained, it was necessary to serve your customer well, and the six swords were no longer humble, and under the service of Yu Chiguang, Yu Chiguang beckoned the other servants to take away the dishes and chopsticks, and still refused to leave, Fu Qingzhu was suspicious and asked: "Who the hell is Venerable?"

Only then did Wei Chiguang smile and say: bsp; This hand is still very impressive, including Fu Qingzhu, such old rivers and lakes can't help but be moved, not to mention the other five swords, everyone can't help but frown when talking about the current situation, the Ming Dynasty and the Western Xia war, it is the common people who suffer, and Liu Ziguang's ban on businessmen is even more excessive, not to mention the livelihood of tens of thousands of merchants, not to mention, the lives of millions of people in the Western Regions have been ruined, the supply of brick tea in the Central Plains has been broken, and the people in the Western Regions will not have no tea to drink, but the brick tea transferred from Mongolia from Tubo must be several times more expensive, or even more than ten times, because brick tea is a necessity of life, so no matter how expensive it is, the people have to grit their teeth and accept that all this is the sin created by Liu Ziguangใ€‚

Speaking of sadness, Wei Chiguang couldn't help but shed tears and said: "Yu Chiguang's heart is not only rich and expensive, I have to think about the brothers who follow me, as well as their wives and children, I am not a Xixia person, nor a Ming person, I am just a bastard raised by the people of Shazhou, who is the emperor makes no difference to me, but there is one point, this emperor must love the people like a son, otherwise, no matter how strong he is, I will rebel!" โ€

This was said without hesitation, and the six swords were moved again, Fu Qing said: "Mr. Wei Chi, I am here to help you, what do you need to do, just say it." โ€

Yu Chiguang was overjoyed, and then 1510 told the plan, and at the end, his stomach suddenly growled, and Yu Chiguang said: "See and laugh, for tonight's big event, Yu Chiguang has not eaten for a day." โ€

What kind of spirit is this, as a multimillionaire running around for the welfare of the public, he didn't eat for a day, presumably when he served Liujian just now, he was also forced to endure hunger when he ate, and everyone sighed together, and after Wei Chiguang left, Han Zhibang said: "Old man, do we really want to do this?" Fu Qing said: "Wei Chiguang is a good person, but we must do this." The tone was categorical, and the other people not only sighed, but they packed their weapons and went.

The riot will be carried out tonight, Liu Ziguang knows that the legendary Tianshan Seven Swords have entered Lanzhou City, and also went to the house of the rebel mastermind Wei Chiguang, which makes him very headache, he and the Seven Swords have a little misunderstanding, but it can't rise to this height, you have something to say, revenge, is to help foreigners deal with the imperial court, what is it, there is really no national consciousness at all.

Although the Red Shirt Army is already an advanced army with all-hot weapons, it is still a bit frightening to deal with such a master among the seven martial arts masters, and it is difficult to kill many people, so Liu Ziguang asked the army to take out all the armor and put it on, hoping to reduce casualties, and send more people to defend the back house, because he knew that his only weakness was in Dong Xiaowan and Dai Wenpei.

The riot was held as scheduled, and at midnight there was a sudden fire everywhere in the city, and countless swordsmen came out of the streets and alleys, marching towards the general of Zhengxi, towards the garrison of the Red Shirt Army, and storming the barracks of the railway soldiers outside the city, and some people shouted: "The Han people are going to bury us alive!" "The soldiers were in a mess, some fled in a hurry, some picked up weapons to resist, and those with ulterior motives followed as soon as they were bewitched.

Yu Chiguang wore gold chain mail, took a Persian treasure knife, and charged in front, thousands of swordsmen followed closely behind, until they rushed to the front of the general Zhengxi, and there was a row of firearms standing on the wall in front of the wheel-type five fast guns, and behind the gate there was also a brigade of red-shirted army bayonets, densely like a forest, as long as Liu Ziguang gave an order, they would rush out and slaughter.

But Liu Ziguang didn't dare to do this, and now he can only rely on the cover of the wall, kill and injure the enemy with firepower, and rush out to fire, which can only increase casualties, not to mention that the enemy still has a master like Seven Swords.

Liu Ziguang stood on the gatehouse of Xingyuan, pointed at Wei Chiguang and said: "This marshal advises you to hurry up and rein in the precipice, don't go further and further on the road of opposing the people, Lanzhou City has been the sacred territory of my Ming Dynasty since ancient times, do you think you can separate Lanzhou from the Ming Dynasty territory by relying on thousands of outlaws!" โ€

Yu Chiguang was dressed in golden armor, and the torches around him shone brightly, his face was full of red light, and even his beard was upturned, he raised the horsewhip in his hand and shouted to Liu Ziguang: "You are wrong, Lanzhou City is not Lanzhou of Western Xia, nor Lanzhou of Ming Dynasty, but Lanzhou of Lanzhou people, and no one is qualified to occupy our homeland, enslave our people, and cut off our way of life!" Today, I, Wei Chiguang, will rise up to seek justice for the people of Lanzhou and the Western Regions! โ€

Although the rough swordsmen behind Wei Chiguang couldn't understand the big boss's profound words, they could always hear the words, which were impassioned and inspiring, so everyone raised their knives together, screaming and screaming indiscriminately, and for a while, the momentum increased greatly, and the shouts and killings outside the city also rose, and the flames soared into the sky, and the sky in Lanzhou was red, as if the air was burning.

Liu Ziguang put a howitzer behind the gate, and was aiming at Yu Chiguang at this time, and it was almost time, he was just about to give the order to open fire, and suddenly there was a person behind Yu Chiguang who drew his sword and stabbed directly, the action was unimaginable, poor Wei Chiguang's ambition was not rewarded, and he died first, and a chain mail could not stop it, and the sharp sword was stabbed through the cold, he turned his head to see that the person who killed him was Fu Qingzhu, one of the seven swords!

"Why?" Yu Chiguang only had time to say these three words, Fu Qingzhu's sword was pulled out, he was very tricky, and penetrated his lungs, Yu Chiguang couldn't speak, his lungs were filled with blood, and his mouth was also spitting blood, and he shook it, and then fell off his horse and passed away with this eternal question.

"Wei Chiguang is dead, and you won't be arrested before you can tie your hands!" Lord Fu Qing raised his sword and shouted, but the surrounding swordsmen were all henchmen of Yu Chiguang who had been raised for many years, and when he saw that his master was killed, he was not red-eyed on the spot, so dozens of knives slashed at Lord Fu Qing together, and six of the seven swords came from the seven swords, and the other five people also moved, and the six different swords were killed in the crowd, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere they went, which was breathtaking:

Fu Qingzhu's Mo Wen sword, the sword is long and flexible, the changes are endless, the moves are unpredictable, and the sword qi is used to hurt people, the sword is not enough, and the sword has fallen, Chu Zhaonan's dragon sword is invincible, and the sound of the sword is loud, just that kind of weird audio can shake other people's swords out of his hand, Yang Yunxi's Qinggan sword is a meteorite, and it is extremely blunt, but the hardness is amazing, even the dragon sword is also constantly cut, and when he swings it, the enemy can't see the blade, and he has already died. Han Zhibang's Sheshen Sword is huge, giving people the feeling of opening the world, no one can be a sword wherever he goes, it is a wall that splits the other two, and the swords of Mu Lang and Xinlongzi also have their own flowers, the Sun and Moon Sword that combines the two swords and the Jingxing Sword that can fly out to kill people are simply too creative compared to those old-fashioned swords in the Central Plains.

Six swords flew among the swordsmen, killing them crying dad and shouting mother, powerless to fight back, those redshirts on the wall looked stupid, it turns out that killing people can be so exciting, not to mention them, even Liu Ziguang is stupid, aren't these guys here to deal with themselves? Why did you turn enemies into friends all of a sudden, is your character too good?
