Chapter 54: Complexity

In the Manchu Qing government, the defense of the Han is better than the defense of the foreigners, because in the face of the foreigners, the most is only to cede the land and pay compensation, and if the Han people gain power, then they will not be protected, and the children of the Eight Banners will be beaten to the dust.

Therefore, within the imperial court, the intrigue between some officials is deceitful, and the swords and swords are far better than the rivers and lakes.

At the beginning, Ye Zhichao was defeated from North Korea and ran all the way to the other side of the Yalu River, a large part of the reason was not that he was afraid of death, but that he desperately wanted to keep his troops for Li Hongzhang.

Some things are far from being as simple as they seem on the surface, sometimes the fugitive generals may not really be unable to fight, and those who can fight may not really be loyal to the court, the intrigues, conspiracies, and secret contests of various forces, if you don't go deep into it, it is difficult to find the degree of danger inside.

But Li Xiake doesn't care about these, no matter how many internal reasons there are, but this is not an excuse to surrender and escape, the consequences caused by these people are extremely serious, and they cannot be explained by a simple sentence of "complicated internal affairs".

"If you say so, the corrupt officials and traitors and lackeys in the world all have unavoidable hardships, and they all have reasons to excuse themselves!"

Li Xiake looked at Wei Rucheng who was lying on the ground, and said lightly: "The Manchu Qing Dynasty treats people like this, and they really deserve to die in the country." But you can be disloyal to the Manchu world, but are the soldiers under your command also Manchus? Now that the children of the Eight Banners are degenerate and incompetent, and all the soldiers who march and fight are the sons of the Han family, if you are really not loyal to the Manchus, why do you want to serve the Manchus? On the one hand, they are greedy for power, and on the other hand, they are cowering and making excuses for themselves. Don't you know that you fled before you fought in Jinshan, and the people who died were all children of the Han family!"

Wei Rucheng was already dying at this time, and said softly when he heard the words: "Yes, so for so many years, I have been hiding, I am hiding from the pursuit of the imperial court, and I am also hiding from the cold eyes of the world, hiding from myself." I changed my face and wanted to be a new person...... I looked down on me, but at the time, I was just scared!"

"Obviously, our artillery and ammunition are in our hands, no worse than the Japanese, but we are afraid, not only me, but also the soldiers below. I think about it now, it's like a dream, I don't know why, it's just inexplicably afraid. ”

He sighed, and his eyes gradually dimmed: "Li Daxia, there are countless cowards like me in the world, and you can't kill them all by relying on you alone." How many people can you kill if you kill for a lifetime?"

Li Xia said: "If I don't kill a few, it's really hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart! If I kill some people like you and can alert the world, then it won't be in vain for me to travel thousands of miles!"

"Then hurry up and do it!"

Wei Rucheng lay on the ground and breathed heavily: "I'm about to die, if you don't kill me, I have to die, if you kill me, you can warn the world, and ...... Count me ...... too."

When he said this, his body shook slightly, blood gushed out of his mouth, and he snorted softly, and there was no more sound.

At this time, the long street was empty, and a gust of wind blew, and a newspaper drifted by, covering Wei Rucheng's face.

The whole street fell silent.

"You deserve to be killed, but you shouldn't let foreigners kill you. ”

Li Xiake got up with his gun, looked at the dead war horse lying next to him, and said softly: "People and horses, they can't die in vain, wait for me to avenge you!"

He picked up his spear, walked to the five white men who died just now, drew his knife and cut off the heads of the five people, and placed them next to Wei Rucheng and the war horse: "This is the murderer who killed you, and now it can be regarded as avenging you, so go with peace of mind." ”

"But this matter is not over, when the street shoots at me, no matter which country, you have to pay the price!"

The corners of Li Xiake's mouth were bleeding, and he found that the internal injuries he had suffered were too serious, so he didn't dare to stay on the long street at the moment, and strode away with an iron gun.

Seeing him cough up blood and leave, after a long while, the shops on the street reopened, and the people inside came out one after another.

"Li Daxia has killed again!"

"But this time he seems to be injured, I think he vomited blood just now!"

"Who is this person who was shot and killed by the foreigner just now?

"It seems that Li Daxia was arrested from the concession, and he shouldn't be a good person!"

"These foreigners are really not things, secretly shooting. I have the ability to practice with Li Daxia face-to-face, and I am sure that I will beat them!"

"When did foreigners live things? Bullying us Chinese all day long, the prefect is afraid of them!"

"Shhhhh

On the second day after Li Xiake was ambushed on the street, the news spread all over the world, and various newspapers reported on the incident.

United States: "The Eastern mob captured a Chinese fugitive from the Japanese concession this time, but he was attacked by Austro-Hungarian soldiers on the way, and the Chinese fugitive general was killed, and Li Xiake's mount and a horse were also killed, but Li Xiake himself did not seem to have suffered any damage. However, some people said that he was also shot and seriously injured, so he went into hiding. ”

France: "This terrible man in China was able to dodge the bullets that were fired at him! The Austro-Hungarian soldiers had the improvised idea to kill Li Xiake, fearing that this man would provoke a frenzied revenge." It is reported that the personnel in the Austro-Hungarian concession are preparing to evacuate China in a short time. ”

Britain: "The whole Eastern world has been stirred up by a thug like Li Xiake!"

Germany: "We should study why Li Xiake is so powerful? Is he really Asian? Those Chinese who are weak and thin with ribs exposed, and Chinese with ridiculous pigtails on their heads, can appear such a strong guy? We have reason to suspect that Li Xiake is not of the Chinese race!"

Now Li Xiake, such an assassin and lawless thug, has attracted the strong attention of the world powers, which is the first time in human history, and even the people of some Western countries have an irrepressible admiration and yearning for Li Xiake.

The Times: "This knight of the East, destined to leave a magical legend in the history of mankind, he may be the pinnacle of individual heroism, and the story about him will surely be told by all countries in the future, this guy is like the god of war on Mount Olympus, violent, but invincible." ”

But compared with the remarks of these foreigners, the Chinese who got the news were more concerned about whether Li Xiake was injured or not, and whether the injuries were serious. It's just that until now, there is no quasi-letter, and no one knows what happened to Li Xiake.

"The dantian is like the sea, the meridians are like rivers, the water passes through the mountains and rivers, and the rest is natural. The feet prop up the earth, and the sky is blue on the head. The clear air enters the top door, and the turbid air enters the spring......"

In the city of Tianjin, in the backyard of Wei Rucheng's house, Li Xiake stood in the courtyard, his body slowly stretched, and slowly passed the mantra of Sanyang Sword Qi taught to him by Chang Shuyuan in his mind, visualizing according to the law, and practicing with the movements, only to feel that the dantian was hot, and this heat slowly spread from the dantian to the chest, and then slowly spread to the whole body, the whole body was warm, as if the internal organs were soaked in warm water, and it was indescribably comfortable.

Footsteps rang out in the courtyard.

Wei Rucheng's wife came over and asked softly, "Li Daxia, how is your body now?"

Mrs. Wei, if I killed your husband, don't you hate me?"
