When Ortai rushed into the governor's yamen and saw Zhang Boxing with an indifferent face, his feelings were the same as Ma Jianbo's earlier, and this life was better than death should finally come to an end.

He exhaled a long breath and asked, "Zhang Zhitai, have you received the emperor's secret message!?" ”

Zhang Boxing nodded, his fingers tapped on the table, he didn't know what he was thinking, but Ortai didn't have the heart to pay attention to these details, and said straightforwardly: "Then hurry up and hand over the person to me!" ”

Ortai didn't receive Yongzheng's edict, but he already knew that he was going to come to this basin, and he was willing to come forward and carry the black pot for Yongzheng.

Zhang Boxing's words came from the dark in the underground mansion: "Don't worry, wait until I think clearly......"

Ortai stomped his feet: "Think clearly!?" Zhang Boxing, what else do you want to think!? Not to mention that the emperor has a decree, just say that this Wuchang City will usher in tens of thousands of troops in the near future, and if you delay it any longer, you can't afford such a crime! ”

Zhang Boxing smiled, smiling calmly and firmly: "Is it just tens of thousands of troops?" I'm afraid it's not enough, it's basically the door of the underworld that is wide open, and all the demons and monsters are pouring out. Exiantai, come out with me to have a look, and by the way, tell you about my findings......"

Ortai gritted his teeth: "Found? What else can be found? This text is provided by Qihang Ming'er

Wuchang Mansion, looking at the mountain gate in the south of the city, ascending the city gate tower, looking to the west, the shadow of the boat on the river is longing, looking to the south, the dust waves are rolling, and there are crowds approaching.

Ortai's face turned pale, and he urged: "Zhang Boxing, what are you still thinking!?" ”

Zhang Boxing closed his eyes and stroked his beard, at this moment, the roar of the river was not stopped, like a muffled thunder splitting the air, and the gunpowder flue was rising, and the war had already begun.

Wuchang and Hanyang on the other side of the river, containing both sides of the river, are the key to the Yangtze River. Successive generations of river defense have taken this as a key point, and there are large groups of warships. By the time of the Manchu Dynasty and Kangxi, although there was no threat of a major war, and the warships were no longer as tall and strong as the previous dynasty, the number was sufficient.

Earlier, when Yuezhou reported that a large group of Nanban ships were going down the river, the sailor battalion was already in full array, and at this time more than 100 large long dragon boats and countless sampan warships had gathered, blocking the river tightly.

At this time, there were only a few boat types in the inland water division of the Qing army, such as sampan, long dragon, fast crab and fast whistle, etc., not to be big, but to be fast. Of course, fast is only relative to those big sand ships, which are basically single-masted and two-masted, and there are very few three-masted ships. The boat is small, with a low freeboard, wide face and flat bottom. The large one carries less than ten iron cannons, and the small one has two cannons at the head and tail, and the cannon is a small cannon of tens of hundreds of catties.

Although the boat is weak in small guns, it can't stand much, and at this moment it is open on the river, crackling and slamming, and the momentum is quite amazing, and some achievements have been made. Several sand boats that tried to continue were blown into circles, and a large group of sailors hastily abandoned their ships and jumped into the river. The officers and soldiers of the naval division and the Qing soldiers who watched the excitement on the shore cheered loudly, and as for those unlucky victims, they were just passing soy sauce people, and the Qing soldiers didn't care at all.

The cheers stopped abruptly, and several sand boats with blue and white flags hanging on their masts sailed out, which was the symbol of the water patrol of the Nanban Hunan Guard, and often met with the Qing court sailors in Dongting Lake.

There was no major friction before, and it was not clear what these guys who still looked like sand boats were capable of, but now Qing Bing's curiosity was satisfied. These sand boats stopped in the center of the river, crossed the hull, and were dozens of zhang away, and the sound of knocking piles continued to rise.

The water column splashed and the wood chips and debris danced wildly, and the Qing soldiers on the shore watched in a daze as more than a dozen sampans turned into fragments in this round of artillery fire, and two fast dragons were broken by the sharp blast, and hundreds of officers and men of the water division threw themselves into the river like dumplings, desperately swimming towards both banks.

The Qing soldiers on both sides of the strait came to their senses, and their hearts were full of anger, it was so unfair! At least it's an eight-pound cannon! Mud horses are embarrassed to install such a big cannon on a sand boat!

The Qing fleet turned around and retreated, and the few sand boats in the Nanban here did not move again, after all, they had few ships, and the Qing soldiers and sailors were going to swarm up, and they really couldn't stand it.

After some negotiation between the two sides, the Nanban fleet moved again, and a large group of sand boats passed through the waterway opened by the Qing soldiers and sailors, and continued to move forward, these were merchants who were only engaged in business. The waterway was cut off due to tensions, but this battle turned into a misunderstanding. ,

If we can ignore the more ships in the Nanban fleet, which are parked in the rear, it seems that nothing can hinder the peace between the two sides. The top of the mast of those ships had white paper rings like centipede kites.

The river calmed down, but there were waves on the south bank of the city, and seeing the smoke and dust approaching, hundreds of Qing soldiers and horses went out of the city, ready to drive away the people outside the city who were holding banners and gathering crowds to make noise. They were afraid that the southern barbarian army would use these people as a cover and suddenly attack the city.

Looking at the soldiers in the distance who were riding horses and waving swords, surging towards the people, Ortai exclaimed: "Zhang Boxing! Are you determined to start a war!? ”

Zhang Boxing still closed his eyes, shook his head and said: "That's the responsibility of supervising the generals to guard the city, does Exiantai want me to open the door to welcome the thief?" ”

Ortai said: "Hurry up and hand over the people, there will be no disaster!" ”

Zhang Boxing opened his eyes, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "After handing over people, this Wuchang Mansion, this vast land, and even my Qing Dynasty, there will be no disaster?" Could it be that my safety in the Qing Dynasty is still rewarded by the Nanban? ”

There was a lot of noise below, screaming again and again, and then gunshots rang out, and guns were discharged! Ortai shuddered.

In the distance below the city, a group of red-clothed soldiers from the south rushed to the scene, passing through the crowd of people who were driven away by the Qing soldiers and fled, facing the Qing soldiers head-on. They did not fight directly with the Qing soldiers and horses, but dismounted one after another, lined up in a thin three-column arrow array, the mounts were concentrated behind the arrow array, and the guns were lined up one after another, and the hundreds of scattered Qing soldiers and horses were caught off guard, and dozens of people were planted in a moment.

The general who led the team was not reconciled, and commanded the horse team to retreat to the moat under the city, this text was provided by Qihang Ming'er, preparing to attack those infantry as a whole, and it can be seen that one arrow array after another is constantly forming, and there are stormy dust waves in the rear, I don't know how many people and horses, knowing that they are by no means opponents, they have no choice but to lead the team to retreat into the city.

The cavalry infantry of the redcoats continued to advance forward, but under the moat, they were bombarded by the bows, crossbows, muskets, and even artillery of the Qing soldiers at the head of the city, and after several attempts, they had no choice but to retreat.

Seeing that the city defense was well prepared, Ortai couldn't help it anymore, grabbed Zhang Boxing's collar, and said sharply: "Zhang Boxing, you want to resist the order!?" You're going to have a good fight with the Nanban!? ”

Zhang Boxing glanced at Ortai disdainfully, and then raised his chin forward, Ortai looked over, and under the waves of dust, the figure gradually became clear. Although there were a few red-clothed soldiers, most of them were civilians, estimated at 350,000 people.

Zhang Boxing said: "Yuezhou Tangbao, there are still tens of thousands of people on the road, plus the river, it is estimated that there are 100,000 southern barbarian people, who will go to this Wuchang city." ”

He shook his head, not knowing whether it was shock, pity, or other emotion: "It's all because their Aunt Pan was locked up in Wuchang." ”

Ortai was no longer patient, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Boxing, what are you doing!?" ”

Zhang Boxing let out a long laugh: "Xuanxu!? The real Xuanxu is on that aunt! ”

He stroked his long beard, his eyes were resolute, and there was a majestic righteousness churning in his heart, which made his words extraordinarily powerful.

"How did Nanban succeed? Is it because of Li Shi's guns? No! It's because of this Pan Aunt! ”

"Her Yingci Yuan, disemboweled, entered the lungs with gold and iron, performed evil magic to break away from the human body, cured people's skins, but sucked away people's essence!"

She also opened a nursery to treat children's fever with open wind and ice, and treated children as cattle and horses, which is not as good as cold and heat pathology. It seems that the children who died in the sky have fallen suddenly, but in fact, those who survived have lost their hearts! ”

"She also lured the apricot forest to get rid of the cold and heat, studied the pathology with utensils, preached what germs and poisonous insects caused the disease, and led the doctor to abandon the five elements of the human body!"

"The medical book issued by her Yingci Institute actually redrew the five internal organs and heart veins of the human body, which is obviously dissecting the human body and hurting the heavens and reason! She also introduced doctors to test drugs in the folk and exchange their lives for medicines! ”

"Why did she do that!? Ortai, you know what!? ”

In the face of Zhang Boxing's mountain-like momentum, Ortai was completely shocked, of course he didn't know, and he didn't know why Zhang Boxing wanted to say this.

"Nanban is the country of demons, and she is the mother of demons! That Li Shi is just a face-to-face character! ”

"The Nanban Divine Cult gathers people to worship obscenity [1], traces the bloodline, destroys relatives and respects relatives, and scatters the patriarchal lineage. This religion is bad for my Chinese Taoism, and it is not as simple as destroying Confucianism! And this golden bell is to use the Yingci Yuan as a hand to promote this religion, in just a few years, hundreds of thousands of sectarians, this is what Li Xian can do? ”,

Zhang Boxing pointed to the people in the city: "Why did they come?" Just because you worship this woman and make noise? No! ”

His eyes lit up, revealing his shocking discovery: "They regard this girl as their mother!" ”

Then his tone turned hot, extremely hot, so that a cold that made Ortai tremble: "Kill her!" Kill this woman, the evil demons will retreat, the demons will subdue the law, the righteousness will return, and the Taoist system will be restored! I will clean up the country and the hearts of my Chinese people, and kill her! ”

Zhang Boxing looked at Ortai, and his eyes burned so much that Ortai's breath stopped: "Although I have mortal aspirations, deep in my heart, I stick to the words of the sage." In ordinary times, what I ask for is to protect myself and hear about the emperor, but before this big right and wrong, I am determined to leave everything behind and do this extraordinary thing! Even if you sacrifice your life for this, you will not hesitate! ”

Ortai was sweating profusely, he couldn't imagine that things would turn out like this, and he said with difficulty: "Zhang Boxing, do you know that your decision is to drag me into the bottomless abyss!" ”

Zhang Boxing shook his head indifferently: "Didn't you listen to what I said just now?" Kill her! The hearts of the Southern Barbarians are lost, and they have no ability to make waves! ”

He smiled, his smile was full of confidence, as profound as the three outlines and five constants engraved in the depths of his heart: "Believe me......"

Ortai shook his head and shook his head vigorously: "You, this is a protest and you are going to be killed!" ”

Zhang Boxing let out a long breath and said in a deep voice: "Who has not died in life since ancient times, and left Danqing to shine on sweat!" ”

Ortai was almost crazy, and he said resolutely: "The emperor has transferred this matter to me, if you don't do it, I will ......"

Without waiting for him to start, Zhang Boxing shouted: "E Xiantai is in poor health and can't be a director, come, help him down and escort him back to the house to take good care of!" ”

The generals around him had already been infected by him to tears, and this text was provided by Qihang Ming'er, who could hear the order, and without hesitation, he rushed up and tied up Ortai.

"Uncle Zhang! You don't have to die well! You dog slave, why do you take the master's ...... Woohoo......"

Ortai was still jumping and shouting, but he was gagged by the general with a rag.

Looking at the crowd in the city, Zhang Boxing took a deep breath and called again: "Come on, prepare the torture table!" "To be continued) Set sail tomorrow provided]. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation.
