Chapter Seventy-Four: The Gift of Entry
"Great! Brother Yin's decision to be so decisive is a blessing for all the brothers and the Taiping Holy Army! Chen Yihe was overjoyed, originally he thought about having to talk more, but he didn't think that Yin Shangying would take the initiative to join!
"Of course, the brothers also follow the big leader and join the Taiping Holy Army together!" Everyone said in unison. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"That's good! Since we have decided to join the Taiping Holy Army, we are the subordinates of the Holy King, and the Holy King is our big leader! A group of brothers of our Heaven and Earth Society, whose righteousness is the heaviest, naturally wants to share the worries and solve problems for the Holy King. Since the Holy King intends to send troops to Liangguang, Shang Ying has a suggestion, why don't we contact the brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society in Lianzhou, and give Lianzhou to the Holy King as a gift for joining the gang, what do you think? The more Yin Shangying spoke, the more he felt that he had a good idea.
"Brother Yin is so right! Brothers, they will capture the city of Nalianzhou and give it to the Holy King, and they can also show our ability! The crowd praised in unison.
"Brother Yin, brothers, this is not a trivial matter, is it not after the Holy Army sends troops, and then consider it in the long run?" Chen Yihe carefully persuaded.
"Brother Chen doesn't have to underestimate me and wait, it's just Lianzhou City, it's not a problem to take it! What's more, there are many brothers of our Heaven and Earth Society in Lianzhou City. A burly middle-aged man said to Chen Yihe.
Seeing this, Chen Yihe could only stop persuading. These congregations are all in the habit of the rivers and lakes, and they just want to join the Taiping Holy Army, but if they obstruct them and talk too much, it will cause them unhappiness and cause estrangement. For the sake of today's plan, it is better to send someone to inform the Holy King earlier, and send troops earlier.
…………
A moonless summer night, no wind, unusually hot and sultry, only I know, I don't rest in the middle of the night, and I still chirp.
At the head of Lianzhou City, several guards fell asleep against the city wall, and only the foreign commissioner, General Du Shan, was awake alone, and he couldn't sleep because he was so noisy.
Recently, the situation has been getting worse and worse, and the long-haired thieves in Hunan in the north have become more and more ferocious, and now they have spread to Lianzhou. It's funny to say that this long-haired thief soldier who was originally making trouble in Guangxi actually ran out of Guangxi and ran to Hunan to start making trouble. In the Lianzhou area, every day people are in groups, crossing the deep mountains and old forests, and running to Hunan to participate in the long-haired thief army.
Du Shan thought, he couldn't care so much. He is just a small foreign general, and he is not in the official position. He was only worried about when the hairy thief would come and whether he would be able to pick up a life when the time came.
He knew that not only he was worried, but also the officials and men who were higher than him were even more worried. Since Linwu in the north was broken by Changmao, the guerrilla general and the garrison were seriously ill at the same time, and returned to the countryside to recuperate, and they had not been in the city of Lianzhou for several days. Now in Lianzhou City, in addition to Zhizhou, the biggest military general is a Qianzong, but Du Shan knows that he must spend the night in Lianzhou. According to Mr. Qian's words, who knows when Long Hair will call? The money you put on yourself is not your own, you can only spend it!
If he didn't have any money, he would have wanted to go there and enjoy it.
Du Shan, who was thinking wildly, suddenly heard something under the city, he stood up, looked at the city, and suddenly woke up, and cold sweat immediately flowed down.
I don't know when there are already hundreds of black shadows under the city, all holding long poles and ladders, and carrying reflective swords in their mouths, climbing up the city wall. It's over, the hairy thief is coming!
"Enemy attack!" As soon as he shouted a word, he felt a pain in his heart, and a dagger had been inserted in his back. Shaking and turning around, the three city guards who had been sleeping woke up at some point and smiled at him.
"They are all spies of the long-haired thieves, and the other guards must have been killed by them, just like me!" This was Du Shan's last thought, and he didn't have time to think about it before he was swallowed up by darkness.
"The leader of Jiahe's Yin Da is a high and bold artist! My old bell just admires him. One of the guards said, looking at the crowd climbing below the walls.
"Don't talk nonsense, wait for a few more people to go up the city wall, and then we will go and open the city gate together, and then it will be safe!" Another guard kicked the dead Dushan and shouted softly.
"What is fierce, isn't it just a military commander? Now we are not Qing soldiers, we are all brothers of the triad, and you are not older than me! The guard muttered, grabbing the first Heaven and Earth Brother to climb the wall.
Afterwards, everyone climbed the city wall, and soon the Qing soldiers of the other guards at the head of the city noticed the movement and began to fight. But it was too late, and with the opening of the gates,
The brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society led by Yin Shangying bravely entered the city, and there was a sound of killing. Dozens of Qing soldiers at the head of the city soon lost their resistance and died to the death.
The Qing soldiers in the military camp in the city, under the leadership of a general, were ready to resist, but when they heard the overwhelming killing shouts, they suddenly lost their courage, and the general manager's face changed greatly, and he took two cronies, quietly took off his robes, and sneaked away.
Among the remaining more than 300 Qing Yong, dozens shouted loudly: "Brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society, I am a brother of the Triad, I am all my own people, don't hurt the harmony!" "Shout out, throw away the shotgun and card knife in your hand.
With the demonstration, the other more than 200 Qingyong also followed suit, threw away their weapons one after another, and shouted: "I am a triad brother, everyone is my own person!" "Without the control of the general manager, the brave people surrendered one after another. After all, life is one's own. Even the adults have already fled, and they are just mixed up to eat, so there is no need to fight for the lives of the Manchu masters who do not recognize themselves as slaves.
Yin Shangying led people under the leadership of several triad brothers to the state government and arrested Zhizhou and Qianzong who were still asleep. I have to say that Mr. Qian, who is a military general, is more powerful than Zhizhou, who is a civil official. The brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society lifted up Mr. Qian's quilt and found that there were three beautiful prostitutes lying beside him, which was much stronger than Zhizhou's body with only one concubine in his arms.
Yoon Sang-young is very happy! He didn't expect Lianzhou City to be taken so easily, and he was even wondering if he should continue to Yangshan and capture him together to give the Holy King a bigger surprise.
Moreover, in Lianzhou City, except for the one who changed his clothes and escaped, the rest of the people were captured. Actually, what Yin Shangying didn't know was that those who wanted to escape had already run away more than ten days ago. No matter what, looking at the captured property, Yin Shangying was full of joy.
However, Chen Yihe's words made his heart hurt.
"Brother Yin, since you have joined my Holy Army, you will act according to the rules of my Holy Army. All these seizures were deposited into the Holy Treasury, which then distributed them to the brothers. Chen Yihe explained, "In this way, everyone will have food and clothing." Of course, our Taiping Holy Army is different from the original Taiping Army, and will not give money to individuals at all, but will issue rewards according to the size of the merit. But this must first hand over the seizures, and then issue rewards for military merits, otherwise, where will the property be rewarded? ”
Yin Shangying thinks about it, and that's right, only by concentrating money in this way can great things be done. Is it no wonder that the Taiping Holy Army is strong, while the congregations everywhere are scattered, is it because of these differences? However, my brother doesn't know if he will figure it out, and he has to talk about it.
Sure enough, some of the Heaven and Earth Brothers, as well as some of the Triad Brothers in the city, all opposed the handing over of all their belongings. In their opinion, they have captured it desperately, and they should be divided among everyone. Even if you take a step back and hand over half of it, the other half has to be distributed to everyone, so that you can have motivation, otherwise, who will work hard next time?
Chen Yihe said: "Brothers, I, Chen Yihe, was originally the leader of the Heaven and Earth Society in Guiyang. Like you, my brothers and I used to go around killing the rich and helping the poor, and we divided the money and fortune, and then the brothers spent it all, and soon we were destitute again. I guess the same is true for everyone, right? ”
"But since joining the Holy Army, although it has not been a long time, my brothers and I no longer have to worry about food, food and clothing are arranged by the Holy Army, and we don't have to worry about it at all. In addition, every time you make a meritorious service, you will be rewarded and distributed, which you can receive in your own hands, or you can store it in the holy treasury and take it at any time. ”
"To put it another ugly way, that is, whoever fought and killed on the front line, his family members were taken care of by other holy soldiers and brothers, and they had a lot of care. If anyone is injured or disabled, there are holy soldiers to take care of them, and these need to be expensed, relying on the property we hand over to the holy treasury! ”
After listening to Chen Yihe's explanation, everyone fell silent.
Yin Shangying opened his mouth and said: "Everyone is brothers, it's still the same sentence, if anyone wants to share the seizure, it's okay, just give him a share and send him away." But whoever joins the Holy Army with me will not be allowed to divide and seize it privately, and when the Holy Army comes and hand it over to the Holy Treasury, then make a decision! ”
In a word, it was decided, except for dozens of people who didn't want to join the Holy Army and went home with some money, the rest all said that they would follow Yin Shangying, join the Holy Army, and abide by the rules of the Holy Army.
Chen Yihe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
