When he saw it was Omubu, Hatu naturally understood that the so-called "Guangxi soldiers" coming from the city were fake, and the Truqins had taken over the Guangzhou city!

After all, he was from an intelligence officer and soon returned to peace.

"Yumbu, you really have you, you escaped in that situation"

"Stop talking nonsense, where is Zhou Jixun?"

There is a reason why Omubu did not rush to take revenge at the beginning, but instead asked Zhou Jixun's whereabouts.

He, Hatu and Zhou Jixun were placed on the mainland to lurk. It was not done by the Intelligence Bureau or Suha, but was arranged by Qitade in the morning.

For Qitade, bringing a large number of Qing people to the local area is naturally a top priority.

But there are many things to do.

For example, they have now taken over the city of Guangzhou. At this time, Guangzhou City is the largest city in the Far East, with more people in the city than in Beijing. If the population that is attached to the city and lives next to the city will be at least one million.

In theory, they could transport these million people back to the local area in batches without asking, but that was obviously not impossible.

If it weren't for Truchen but other countries occupied Hong Kong Island, the court would never have gone to great lengths to attack, because for them, Hong Kong Island is just a mere island, not a place where a large population can be hidden like Taiwan Island. If it is not good, it is very likely to adopt a strategy like Macau.

But the shame that Truchen brought to them on the Northwest battlefield was too great. Even a small island would do their best to attack. But if this doesn't work, it would be impossible to eventually accept something like Macau.

But Guangzhou City is different.

It is the provincial capital of Guangdong Province and the only trading port in the country. It is not only a population highland, but also a tax highland. Such a city is occupied by Truqin for one day and is a great humiliation of the Qing Dynasty, which is absolutely intolerable.

The loss of a small island will at most become a small matter after arguing in the court for two or three days. However, the loss of the prestigious Guangzhou City will obviously not make any discussions and will quickly dispatch the army.

So, you don’t have to think about it. After learning that Guangzhou is in the fall, the two camps on the north bank of the Shenzhen River will definitely ignore the matter of Hong Kong Island, but will go north to attack Guangzhou as soon as possible.

Their attack on Guangzhou will definitely be much greater than that of Hong Kong Island. At the same time, there are still troops in Guangdong, Guangxi provinces that have not been dispatched, as well as soldiers from Fujian, Jiangxi and Huguang, and soldiers from Fujian, Jiangxi and Huguang will definitely come in endlessly.

That is the real power of tying the country.

What's more, the Truqins only have one brigade. If you want to use this brigade, you can imagine the difficulty of Guangzhou City, which can be safely occupied by a million people.

It is still the prosperous era of the Qing Dynasty. Although later generations have had an affinity for their evaluation, it was not the late Ming or late Qing Dynasty. The Eight Banners and Green Camp soldiers were still good in combat. Otherwise, with the strength of the Europeans at this time, they would have taken some land long ago, instead of waiting until the 19th century.

In that case, it would be unlikely that the Truchens would transport all the population in the city.

First, the capacity is limited, and second, whether these people are really willing to follow them is also a question.

So, before coming, Qitad considered this issue, and he had asked Timur's words:

"Third brother, the Qing Dynasty is still in its prosperous era. Although the Manchus are very harsh on the Han people and have begun to sell official positions and titles in order to use force in the northwest, it is a prosperous era. The Han people will not abandon the Qing Dynasty immediately and turn to us."

"But after all, there are still some people who are willing to leave"

"So, when you get there, you can arrange personnel to go ashore to find out the details. Whose details? There are three types"

"First, the background of the poor people, including farmers, craftsmen, etc., people from Guangdong and Fujian are quite pioneering. Therefore, they can draw some people to them by describing the beautiful prospects of life in our country. Of course, let alone go to Truqin, just go to Nanyang"

"Second, the three religions and nine ranks of people, Guangzhou is extremely prosperous. The iron industry, ceramic industry, textile industry, gunpowder, shipbuilding, and study are all extremely prosperous. The water network is crisscrossing around the estuary of the Pearl River, and transportation is extremely convenient. This will naturally attract some people with ulterior motives to covet"

"Big industries have their own guild organizations, and small industries have guilds behind them. These guilds obviously have no loyalty to the Qing Dynasty, but they may not necessarily surrender to Truqin, find out their background before making plans"

"Third, the officialdom, I don't need to mention the key points. Due to the rise of the Thirteen dynasties, Guangzhou Wharf is extremely prosperous, and food and entertainment are extremely developed. In such a critical place, gangs cannot enter, and there must be support from the city officials behind it."

"Send Hatu, who is familiar with the officialdom, to the Guangzhou Wharf, and send Omubu, who has been a camel seeker, to the countryside. He will perform operas. It is very suitable for Zhou Jixun, who is good at hiding his whereabouts, to send him to the gang."

"By the way, among these three people, Zhou Jixun is particularly important. At this time, in order to establish authority and unite people's hearts, the gangs in Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian were mostly under the banner of anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty. These people had certain force and financial resources, and also controlled a large number of people such as martial artists, bodyguards, doctors, lifus, prostitutes, etc. "

"Their information has the widest, most numerous and most timely information. You can dig deeper"

In fact, in Qitade's subconscious, although these so-called gangs were only under the banner of anti-Qing and restoring Ming Dynasty, they were actually engaged in underworld activities, but there was no doubt that they were on the contrary to the Qing court.

"I know what you want to ask?"

Hatu was so happy that he could no longer get out of here, he immediately said.

"Oh?"

"You must want to know Zhou Jixun's whereabouts, but to know all this, you must first go to the boat behind you"

"Hatu, stop playing tricks, do you think it's possible to escape?"

"You're thinking too much, but when I was talking, it's impossible to tell Zhou Jixun's whereabouts without this thing, but Zhou Jixun's token was on that small boat. Only when I saw this token could I explain the whole story."

"Token?"

The token he said was definitely not something from the Intelligence Agency. As a person who was laid on the mainland, it is impossible for him to carry anything that could prove Truchen's identity, except himself.

"This token belongs to a woman, and with this I can only make it clear"

"Woman?"

"Yes, Omubu, you know that Zhou Jixun likes to sing opera the most. After he came here, he was immediately attracted by a woman from the sacred house. In order to find out the situation of the sacred house, Zhou Jixun pretended to accept the woman's admiration"

"Wait", Omubu suddenly realized something, "Most of the Dan women are ugly, how can Zhou Jixun take a fancy to me? You need to criticize me!"

"Haha, Xiao Bu, I have already figured out the situation of the treasury households. There are almost 50,000 treasury households in Guangdong, all of which are untouchables. They are not allowed to go ashore, and there are nearly 20,000 households on the Pearl River Water Network in Guangzhou."

"Although they can't get ashore, how can they not contact each other? So, there is an organization behind them. However, even if there is an organization, it will be useless because it cannot get ashore, but those who are interested obviously see this."

"The business and industry and mining near Guangzhou are extremely developed. There are guilds of all sizes and countless gangs. One of them has just come from Fujian and I have a crush on these gangs"

"What gang?"

"Heaha, I guess you don't know it, but it's very famous in the Qing government. People from Fujian thought that the gods were unaware of it, but they were discovered by me, a person who happened to live on the water for a long time."

"Stop talking nonsense, what does this have to do with Xiao Zhou?"

"Don't worry, this woman is the daughter of the leader of the Tan household. Although the Tan household cannot go ashore, she can live on the sandbank in the Pearl River. Since she is the leader, she also needs better expenses. Most people look down on these businesses."

"But Fujianese would rather lose money than get in touch with the leader of the ban account..."

"Wait, Xiao Zhu is working in this Fujian gang?"

"Of course, this gang is under the guise of teaching Nan Shaolin's martial arts skills in Nanhai and Panyu to collect disciples. Xiao Zhu entered this meeting by chance. In addition to the cost, the gang households naturally have demands in other aspects."

"My biggest hobby is listening to operas, so Xiao Zhu made a debut. You know, he likes to dress up as a woman the most, and he sings the most"

"This family also has several ships at the Guangzhou Pier, and the closest to Qiuyue in Han Palace is their ship"

Omubu immediately understood something.

"You received the order from Suha to trick him into drinking, and then made him faint with the medicine wine. After you were about to sink to the bottom of the river, you were rescued by the sacrificial woman who had been paying attention to him, right?"

Hatu showed a mysterious smile on his face.

"It's almost the same, but the details of this need to be clearly stated after seeing the token"

Omubu thought to himself: "We have several people who control Guangzhou City, so what's the point of going to the small boat to take a look?"

However, he knew that Hatu was known for his cunning tricks when he was in the Intelligence Bureau, so he said to the two scouts: "You two escort him to the boat to get the token"

He followed them to the stern and saw the small boat tied to the big boat.

A scout was in front, Hatu walked in the middle, and behind him was another scout. The three men quickly got on the boat and entered the hatch.

Since Hatu lives alone on the boat, it is probably because he has modified the hatch door. When they pushed open the hatch door and went in, the hatch door automatically closed again.

Omubu felt something was wrong in his heart, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he had to pray that they would come back quickly.

"Boom..."

Just as I was thinking, I saw a violent explosion suddenly occurred on the small boat!

The debris produced by the explosion also injured Omubu and others who were standing on the big ship!

Omubu felt that his whole body seemed to be stuck with debris, and he couldn't help but fall in pain. When he barely stood up with the support of a scout, the small boat in front of him was gone, leaving only the strong smell of gunpowder and the floating skeletons!
