Chapter 175 Kill the demon and welcome the saint!
The heavy rain fell to Guangzhou City again! Thunder and lightning rolled in the dark clouds, and the pouring rain fell from above the nine heavens, and immediately turned the entire Guangzhou into a "water city".
The people who were running for life were rolling in the muddy road. They helped the elderly and the young, falling step by step. Most of them ran in a hurry, let alone straw raincoats, and didn't even take an umbrella. The cold rainwater was poured on their heads in a pot and walked not far from Guangzhou. Many of the lavish men and wives who were usually pampered can't bear it and began to abandon the luggage and property they brought from Guangzhou.
On both sides of the road, all the things were discarded were things, boxes, bags, baskets, swords, guns, armor, and robes. Some old bannermen or old banner slaves who could not walk because of their old and weak bodies were crying in the mud and water on the side of the road. Some animals who had exhausted their strength or were sick and could not walk on the road were also abandoned, lying in the cold mud and water, wailing long or short.
But what makes people cry the most heartbreaking sound is the most heartbreaking cry.
"Retribution! It's really retribution! I killed countless people when I entered Guangzhou, but today it was my turn to be a ghost under the knife. It's time!"
"Whoever is kind to bring my son with me, thank you even if you die!"
"How come I ended up like this when I worked for the Shang family for twenty years!"
"The Qing Dynasty is about to be finished! The Qing Dynasty is about to be finished!"
Xue Zhang, Jin Guang, and several senior civil servants sent by the imperial court to Guangdong were also fleeing in the rain at this time, but their situation was much stronger than the old and weak who escaped from Guangzhou City. This group of people was only Jin Guang, and the others were still strong and strong. Everyone had horses to ride, as well as staff, personal soldiers, and strong servants brought from their hometown to protect them.
In addition, the officials did not escape with many property. It was not that they were not greedy, but that they had known the situation in Guangdong for a long time, so they naturally sent their families to protect their money and left in advance.
They were handy with some fragments that they used on weekdays, not much, so they could now escape. But they couldn't escape now. Because the official road leading north to a wooden bridge on Liuxi River was blocked by the old, weak and women and children under the Pingnan Prince's Mansion who were dragging their families and ran away, and they couldn't walk fast at all! Moreover, the subordinates of several civil servants did not dare to whip the whip and drive away the people blocking the road, there were many old traitors who were murderous!
Now they are traitors in their twilight years, and their murderous intentions are still there!
The Heavenly Soldiers who killed the Third Prince of Zhu and the Third Prince of Zhu could not be killed, so it was no difficult to kill a few dog officials.
"Boom"
Another lightning flashed by, and the rain seemed to be getting heavier. Xue Zhang rode on his horse. Although he was wearing a straw raincoat and a hat on his head, his official uniform was still a little wet and stuck to his body, which was very uncomfortable. He didn't dare to show off his official airs as an admiration for academic affairs now, but just walked slowly among the crowd. Looking at the tragic situation in front of him, Xue Zhang sighed and whispered: "Rise, the people suffer; death, the people suffer."
Before he could finish his lyrics, a Cantonese shouting shouts of killing suddenly came from the rain curtains on both sides of the official road.
"Terror to Guangzhou, destroy Shang's family, and kill all the Shang's surname"
"The Third Prince Zhu is here, and everyone who is Shang Kexi is going to die!"
"Don't let your mother kill you!"
Hearing the shouts of killing, the old and weak who were walking slowly suddenly became excited. They gritted their teeth and accelerated their pace, and trotted all the way north. Of course, some people really couldn't run, and rushed out for a few steps, then fell to the ground and could no longer get up.
Xue Zhang was also very panicked and turned around and asked in a trembling voice: "What, what should I do? The fake Zhu San Taisun is chasing him."
Jin Guang was calm and sneered: "It's not the fake Grandson Zhu San, but just the troublemakers who were expelled from Guangzhou City!"
"Unclerence?" Xue Zhang was stunned for a moment before remembering that in order to avoid the rebellion of residents in the outer city of Guangzhou, Shang Zhixin ordered all ordinary people in the city to be driven away.
However, there were chaos outside the Guangzhou Prefecture City, and these troublemakers had no place to go, so they had to set up two shanty towns in the south and north of the city of Guangzhou. These people were originally good at having families, businesses and business in Guangzhou, but suddenly they were bombarded and they didn't give time to pack up their property. At the command of Shang Zhixin, the soldiers came to drive them away.
It is easy to imagine what these people hated the Shang family and the Qing Dynasty!
Now that the Shang family is defeated and fled, are they not revenge yet?
Xue Zhang narrowed his eyes and looked left and right. Sure enough, at the end of his sight, he saw a low shanty town covered by rain and fog, some of which were still standing in the mud and water, looking like they were about to be submerged.
How much people living inside should hate Shang’s family!
Xue Zhang sighed: "The Shang family is loyal to the court, but they are too mean to the people of Guangdong."
He himself has been an official in Guangdong for many years. Of course, he knows how much the Shang family kills people and slaughteres the city, and many people have done it! He Shang Kexi is really too much about the issue of coastal migration!
Oboi only said that he would move to twenty miles. The officials below were very conscientious, so he would give him a discount and move to fifteen miles to deal with it. If you are a little more cruel, you can add five miles to twenty-five miles.
Ke Shang Kexi moved a total of thirty miles and fifty miles!
At that time, Xue Zhang was a county magistrate in Huizhou and still remembered the situation at that time. After Shang Kexi's orders were released, the magistrates of Huizhou and Chaozhou coastal counties were shocked. They couldn't believe that such orders really didn't know what the King of Pingnan was going to do? If you move to fifteen miles, no one would say anything!
Because Shang Kexi's order to move the border was too ruthless, there were a lot of rebellions in the coastal areas of Guangdong. Huizhou turned against Big Su, Chaozhou caused a big boss Hui, and Lianzhou produced a Chen Shangchuan. In the coastal areas of Guangzhou, Zhaoqing, Leizhou and Gaozhou, there were also many rebels of various brands.
The disaster that the Shang family suffered today is due to the causes and consequences of this ban on the sea. To put it bluntly, it is a retribution
"ah!"
"Murder!"
"Thief"
"Kill the Qing dog!"
Just when Xue Zhang was thinking about Shang Kexi doing that unethical thing, the sound of murder came again!
Those who killed people were strong among the unruly people who were expelled from Guangzhou City, while those who were killed were old and weak who could not walk down the road and were pushed down the official road.
At first, the unlucky people just shouted around the official road. When they saw the Qiding Banners running away on the official road, they did not dare to expel them. They became brave and began to secretly come up to kill and rob them under the cover of the rain.
Xue Zhang looked at the scream and saw a few strong men with bare shirtless, using a few waist knives from some unknown place to chop a bunch of old flag soldiers, and the others on the official road just pretended not to see this scene!
Xue Zhang just sighed and thought to himself: "The unlucky people in Guangdong have never seen the real Manchus many times, and they probably can't tell the difference between the fake Manchus family of the Eight Banners. They just said that they killed the Manchu heavenly soldiers with their hands. From now on, they will no longer be afraid of Manchus!
Speaking of which, this is also a sin of Shang Kexi! The sin of this old thief is really great!”
While the soldiers and Ding Banners of the Shang family soldiers in the north of Guangzhou were marching hard under the pursuit of Guangzhou's troubled people, countless people in ragged clothes, thin and vegetarian faces were knelt on the bank of the long Pearl River Wharf in the heavy rain.
Behind them, there were a large area of shanty towns that looked sad, all of which were low sheds shaking in the strong wind.
The target of these people's worship was a large sand ship with the banner of the sun and the moon and the public. This ship was slowly sailing towards the Pearl River Wharf surrounded by more than 200 large and small ships.
