Changsha City, outside Chaozong Gate.
"Long live the King of Heaven! Kill the demon and go to heaven!"
After more than 500 "big demons" and "little demons" were burned alive into coke, the nearly 100,000 Changsha people who had moved from the Chaozongmen to the Chaozhou Gate watched the live barbecue. The crowd shouted the slogan "Kill the monsters and go to heaven." Many of them laughed and cried while shouting this slogan.
When a great revenge has been avenged, it is natural to laugh.
After laughing, they shed tears for their tragic situation and their relatives who could not come back from the dead.
The Qing soldiers who invaded Changsha not only killed their relatives, but also took away their last living money. But earlier, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's policy of dividing fields and land took away their land.
Now they truly have nothing!
There is no land, no money, some people have lost their relatives, have nothing in their hands and nothing in their possession, and don’t know where they will go in the future? In today’s apocalyptic world, people like them who have lost everything will starve to death sooner or later. I really think It’s so miserable to even think about it!
"When, when, when, when..."
Just when these people who had avenged their great vengeance began to feel confused about their future, loud and clear bells suddenly sounded from the Chao Zong Gate Tower.
Everyone's attention was attracted. They saw that a high platform had been set up on the city gate at some point. Standing on the high platform was a man wearing a paper crown and a dragon robe, looking down. Looking at the people on the bank of the Xiangjiang River, crying and laughing.
The man who can stand so tall and wear a dragon robe must be the greatest king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan. Is this Hong Heavenly King going to announce something big?
Thinking of this, everyone became quiet, and all their eyes turned to this man who was aloof and like a god.
A large number of Taiping Holy Soldiers came out from the Chao Zong Gate, stood in a row outside the Chao Zong Gate, and shouted in unison: "The King of Heaven has a decree, you should kneel down and listen devoutly, and don't make any noise!"
After a long and prolonged "kneel down", people outside the Chao Sect gate were already kneeling together.
Looking at the sea of ​​kneeling people in front of him, Hong Xiuquan, who was standing on the high platform, seemed to be enjoying himself very much, with an intoxicated expression on his face.
After being intoxicated for a while, Hong Xiuquan finally started reciting a limerick: "Listen up, everyone! We, father and son in heaven, were ordered to descend to the mortal world just to slay demons and open up a peaceful world. Today, Changsha will be pacified, and the next day will be determined. Let’s go to Beijing to slay all the demons in the world. Let’s go together to kill the demons and enjoy wealth and honor together...are you willing?”
Hong Xiuquan's voice was not loud, and he spoke Hakka, which the Hunanese below could not understand. The soldiers who lined up outside Chaozong's gate were proficient in "multiple languages" and could translate Hong Xiuquan's Hakka. It has become Hunan Mandarin, and no matter how loudly it is played out, it can always be understood by the people kneeling outside the Chao Zong gate.
The people kneeling below immediately understood that King Hong Tian was going to lead everyone to conquer the country together! This is of course a good thing!
At least for the people who are now kneeling outside the Chao Zong gate and have nothing, this is the best thing! The poor want to rebel! For the poor who have nothing, what other way out is there besides rebellion?
Besides, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's "rebellion" is very good at the moment. If you don't join now, then when? "Yes!"
"I am willing to conquer the country with the King of Heaven!"
"I would like to follow the king of heaven to kill the demons and go to heaven!" There was a cheer outside the Chao Zong gate.
"Hahaha..." Hong Xiuquan also laughed heartily, "One hundred thousand people, got it overnight!" He turned his head and looked around, "Qingbao, your brother-in-law, mountain compatriot, country compatriot. If I get it, Can millions of people defeat Beijing in one fell swoop?"
Millions of people defeated Beijing with one blow?
Luo Yaoguo thought: "Hong Xiuquan, you are making the mistake of putschism! Do you want to recruit a million mobs and scare the Manchus in Beijing with your huge momentum?"
"King of heaven, if there are millions of people, Beijing can be conquered with one drum!"
Yang Xiuqing first expressed his support for Hong Xiuquan, but he did not completely give up his point of view, and then added: "However, the military supplies and armaments needed by millions of people must be complete, otherwise millions of people want to raise food during the Northern Expedition. But it’s just too difficult.”
It was Hong Xiuquan who acted blindly, and he was the one who wiped the rear.
Millions of people marched north to Yanjing. How much wasted along the way? This is not a good job!
After Yang Xiuqing, the living father responsible for wiping Hong Xiuquan's butt, expressed support, Xiao Chaogui and Feng Yunshan immediately expressed their support.
Xiao Chaogui only had Wuchang Mansion in mind right now. Hong Xiuquan wanted to coerce millions of people to go to Beijing. Of course he had no objection and even said a lot of compliments.
Feng Yunshan is now bent on plotting in Guangdong. It is said that he has contacted many big leaders of the Guangdong Tiandi Society, and is preparing to work together internally and externally to win Guangdong in one go. Hong Xiuquan has taken many people to the north, and none of them have much relationship with him. One is Yang Xiuqing, the other is Luo Yaoguo. That's all. So he also expressed his support, but he also mentioned that Jinling must be captured first. Only with the money and food provided by the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River can millions of people come to Beijing.
Three of the four living dads have already expressed their stance, leaving only Luo Yaoguo.
Hong Xiuquan looked at him with burning eyes, as if he was looking forward to his support.
Of course Luo Yaoguo supported Hong Xiuquan to become "reckless". To rebel, you need to be motivated and passionate. Even if you are "reckless", you can still inspire future generations. But he still followed the trend of Yang Xiuqing and Feng Yunshan and clasped his fists He cupped his hands and said, "The King of Heaven, my brother's intention is the same as that of the third and fourth brothers. It is better to conquer the south of the Yangtze River first, and then to control the Central Plains. This is the way for Hongwu to conquer the world in the past!"
"good!"
The four living fathers all nodded, it must be true. The "child" Hong Xiuquan finally laughed heartily, waved his hand and said to Yang Xiuqing: "Qingqi, in three days, we will recruit one hundred thousand people from Changsha. Five days later...I will lead an army of 200,000 to march towards Wuchang!"
"My brother accepts the order!"
Yang Xiuqing immediately lifted his robe and bowed down, accepting the task assigned to him by Hong Xiuquan... One hundred thousand people! It took three days to recruit them, and five days to pull them away. They were all a mob. They could only build up their momentum. Think about it. They all have big heads.
Hong Xiuquan turned around and looked at the people kneeling and worshiping below. He waved his hands at them grandly and announced loudly: "In five days, I will lead you and others to march into Wuchang City! After three months, I will lead you and others to capture Jinling and set the city." It’s a small paradise... One year later, I will personally lead a million-strong army to expedition to the Central Plains to wipe out all the demons!"
The people below didn't know what Hong Xiuquan was shouting about. They only saw Hong Xiuquan waving to them, so they shouted loudly: "Kill the demon and go to heaven..."
Five days later.
Outside Beijing, on Marco Polo Bridge.
At this moment, Aixinjueluo Sushun was standing on the long bridge dejectedly, looking at the towering city of Beijing in the distance. After a while, he sighed. "Master Su, you have been sighing all the way. Son, we are almost here in Beijing..."
"That's right, victory or defeat is a common thing for a soldier. Besides, we have analyzed all the way and found a way to defeat Changmao! If we go back next time, we should win for sure!"
"Lord Su, we have not found nothing this time! At least we have destroyed the appearance of the Bull Demon King, and we have also found the real body of the Demon King... When Lama Tu invites powerful experts from the West, we will definitely be able to Kill him!"
Those who spoke were Guarjia, Yuanbao, Jin Aduo, and Bai Siwen, the "Three Treasures of the Eight Banners". Next to them was an old man with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing an upright official robe. It was Lama Tupolev. He heard Bai Siwen Sven said that he was going to the West to seek help from the powerful, but he couldn't help but frown!
He has now basically determined that Luo Yaoguo is related to the legendary devil Satan. He is either a disciple of Satan or Satan himself... For such a powerful devil, he doesn't know that the patriarchs of the All-Russian Religious Council are powerful enough. Not enough? If not, you have to go to Rome to ask the Pope for help. Then the Orthodox Church may be overpowered by the Roman Church.
At this time, Sushun also turned to look at Lama Tu, clasped his hands together, and performed a Buddhist salute: "Master, I wonder if there is a way to subdue this demon in the West?"
"Yes, yes!" Lama Tupolev nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "Our country of Rakshasa may not have it, but the countries of England and France must have... magic weapons that can kill this demon! I'm going back this time Rakshasa, you must find a way to help the Qing Dynasty buy it, but this magic weapon is not cheap!"
"England? France?"
