Chapter 206 Heaven's Dream Monthly Pass
Today is the fourth update, and Luo Luo will be exhausted if there are more updates. However, Luo Luo still asks for a monthly ticket. There is no way, the competition is too fierce, and little Luo Luo will be born soon, and Luo Luo still has to earn milk powder money.
I can’t help but ask. Dear friends, do you still have monthly tickets that you can give to Luo Luo?
Just when Zhu Jishi was making plans to conquer Guangdong, on the mighty Xijiang River, a large wooden boat from Ngee Ann was slowly going upstream. The weather was cool and sunny, the wind and waves were calm on the Xijiang River, and the wooden boat was crowded
Open up the country and advance leisurely.
Ngee Ann Hong is the leader of the Xijiang Boating Gang and the background of Tiandi Hui. It is called Ngee Ann Church and is a very old mountain church. It has long lost interest in the cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, but dominates the Xijiang water transport to make a living. Of course
, Ngee Ann Church is, after all, the Hong Family Church. It is a reflection of the recent rise of Daming Shan in Hong Kong.
We still maintain a respectful relationship with Zhu Mingzhengshuo. The master of Ngee Ann Hall also secretly went to Hong Kong to visit Zhu Jishi and said that the Xijiang Boat Gang could contribute to the great cause of restoring Ming Dynasty. This was just talk, who knew that Zhu Jishi would really be
An errand was sent down to ask Yi'antang to escort Hong Rengan to Yong'an Prefecture, Guangxi.
The door of Hong Rengan's cabin was lightly knocked. Wang Decai, the master of Yi'an Hall, came in from the door and bowed to Hong Rengan, who was wearing the uniform of a fifth-grade civil servant of the Qing Dynasty. "Master, Jiangkou
The town is just ahead."
"Oh, I got it." Hong Rengan put down a copy of Engels' "Strategy of the West" and nodded kindly to Wang Decai. Jiangkou Town, Yong'an Prefecture, Guangxi was the destination of Mr. Hong Rengan's trip.
He is not a fake official of the fifth rank of the Qing Dynasty, but he spent a lot of money to donate money. Although he is a donation class, he still has a layer of official skin that can bluff people.
This trip to Guangxi saved a lot of trouble. None of the green camp checkpoints patrolling along the way had any trouble with him. They let him go happily after being rewarded with a few silver coins, and no one got on the boat to disturb this bookish man.
The thick Magistrate Hong - the word "donate class" is not written on his face. People who don't know it would think that this man is a regular official with a top-level background. Who wants to provoke him?
Hong Rengan stood up and walked out of the cabin with Wang Decai. He stood on the bow of the ship and looked west. The dock of Jiangkou Town was already in sight.
I wonder how the business of the God Worship Association is developing? Hong Rengan's brows gradually furrowed, and a trace of worry appeared on his face.
He was one of the earliest participants in Hong Xiuquan's career. The book "Good Advice to the World" that drove Hong Xiuquan into a semi-crazy state was brought back to Hong Xiuquan from Hong Kong. For this ambitious clan brother, Hong Rengan was both
admire,
Worried again. What I admire is that the God Worship Society founded by Hong Xiuquan is growing in power, and it has the unique insight to climb the high branch of Zhu Jishi. With Hong Xuanjiao currently being favored by Zhu Jishi's curtain, the Hong family's wealth can already be expected.
Yes.
However, Hong Rengan had an unspeakable worry about Hong Xiuquan's ambition. The Hong family followed Zhu Jishi early, and they had the power of the God Worship Society, and they even offered Hong Xuanjiao, a little fairy, to marry Zhu Jishi.
In the future it will be
As a foreign relative, there was endless wealth and glory to enjoy. But Hong Xiuquan was not satisfied and refused to take the backbone of the God Worshipers Association to Hong Kong to seek refuge. He also kept asking Zhu Jishi for money and guns to expand his strength. This thought should be taken seriously by Zhu Jishi.
Not coming out?
"Sir, the ship is about to dock. Please be careful."
Just as Wang Decai finished speaking, the wooden boat had already docked firmly at the dock of Jiangkou Town. This place is only a few dozen miles away from Jintian Village, Hong Xiuquan's current base camp, and has long been the territory of the God Worship Association. In the past year or so, the God Worship Association has been established one after another.
Zhu Jishi had a lot of gold, silver and foreign guns, so it developed very quickly. The number of believers had already exceeded 20,000! Even the magistrate of Yong'an Prefecture was bribed by Hong Xiuquan, which greatly affected the development of the God Worshiping Association.
Turn a blind eye - now the attention of the officials in Guangdong and Guangxi has been attracted by Zhu Jishi. As long as they don't rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, start a cult, and accumulate some gold and silver, they are not in the eyes of the imperial officials. Moreover, Guangxi has always been a heaven and earth society.
The focus of the anti-thief activities is that there are so many strongmen who have taken over the mountains and become kings under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. The green battalion soldiers in Guangxi cannot suppress them even if they have broken legs. Who cares about cults?
"This person is Brother Qianyi? I've been looking forward to seeing you!"
Hong Rengan was busy instructing the servants to move heavy wooden boxes off the ship when he heard someone calling his nickname. Looking back, it turned out that Feng Yunshan was walking quickly with a few people. This is how Feng Yunshan is dressed now.
Like a gentry in the countryside,
Wearing a well-made long mandarin jacket and a melon skin hat, the hat is made of mutton fat white jade. This outfit cannot be bought without dozens of silver coins. It seems that Zhu Jishi's money has allowed these leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to live in advance.
a prosperous life.
…
"Brother Qianyi, it is said that the Ji Shi Army wiped out the Guangdong Navy. Is it true?"
"Brother Qianyi, how many people are there in the Jishi Army? Are they really being trained rigorously every day as stated in the "Taiwan Military Strategy"?"
"Brother Qianyi, when will Jishi's army attack Guangdong? Will they go directly across the sea to attack Beijing?"
After Hong Rengan settled in the most luxurious house in Jiangkou Town, he was asked endless questions by a group of backbone members of the God Worshipers Association. These famous figures in history are now with Hong Rengan
Like Gan, he seems to be worried about gains and losses.
Zhu Jishi's rebellion seems to have developed beyond their expectations. The situation in Guangdong is already on the verge of chaos. Maybe it won't be long before the Zhu family rules the world! Where will the God of Worship go? If we are like each other, what status can we all get?
?If you don’t partner with Zhu Jishi...will God worship have the strength to go it alone?
"Brother Qianyi came from afar to work hard. Let's rest today. If you have anything to say, I'll talk to you tomorrow." At the head of the table, Hong Xiuquan, who was dressed as a soldier, spoke at this time and dismissed the backbone of the meeting, leaving only Feng Yunshan.
Along with Hong Rengan, the one-eyed dragon Yang Xiuqing and other three people.
"Brother Renkun, if everyone can turn his back on it, I will definitely be crowned a marquis." Hong Rengan took out the letters between Zhu Jishi and Hong Xuanjiao and handed them to Hong Xiuquan with both hands.
"Brother Shao Guang (Feng Yunshan), what do you think?" Hong Xiuquan opened Hong Xuanjiao's letter and read it, and asked Feng Yunshan beside him with a smile.
"It's not bad to be granted the title of Marquis." Feng Yunshan looked at Hong Xiuquan, smiled and said, "What did Sister Xuanjiao say in her letter?"
"Humph, you can't get into the female university!" Hong Xiuquan sneered, "I almost praise Zhu Jishi to the heavens... I really think of him as the destined emperor!"
"Brother Renkun, what do you mean...we won't vote for the Ming Dynasty?" Hong Rengan was startled when he heard this and looked up at Hong Xiuquan.
"Why do you want to surrender? I am the king of men. This is the will of the heavenly father! No matter how much trouble Zhu Jishi makes, he will never escape the fate of being a stepping stone!" Hong Xiuquan said calmly, "I will be the one to make this prince in the future."
"Brother, Ming Gong has strong soldiers!" Hong Rengan murmured.
"But he has no ambitions and only focuses on Guangdong and Guangxi. In the future, he will be a small court in the Southern Ming Dynasty."
The speaker was Yang Xiuqing, who had one eye and was exposed. He was originally the third person in the God Worshipers Association, but a while ago, when Hong Xiuquan and Feng Yunshan went to Hong Kong to visit Zhu Jishi, he played a trick of possessing God, so now he is
The second-in-command of the Worship God Association.
He sneered and said: "The center of the world is not in Guangdong and Guangxi. Even if it is occupied by Zhu Jishi, it will not kill the Qing Dynasty. If I were Zhu Jishi, I would build more warships, then hang up sails and go north to attack Yanjing."
"Ming Gong is indeed more prudent in his actions." Hong Rengan nodded.
"This is our opportunity!" Yang Xiuqing's face showed excitement.
"At present, the attention of the officers and soldiers is attracted by Ji Shi's army. If Guangzhou Prefecture is really captured by Zhu Jishi, Guangxi will raise the bid, and Fu Biao will probably be transferred to Guangdong. By then, Yong'an Prefecture will be empty, and we will not leave it alone.
Action? Now we have 20,000 followers, no less than 200,000 in money, and more than a thousand foreign guns, so why worry about not succeeding in a big thing?"
"Brother Yang is right, our opportunity is here!" Hong Xiuquan clapped his hands.
Yang Xiuqing laughed and said: "Let Zhu Jishi and the Manchus make trouble in Guangdong. We will lead our troops northward and expand our troops along the way. We will not occupy cities or land, but cross the river as quickly as possible. We will take Henan as our home first, and then reorganize our troops and horses to the north.
Take Yanjing, take over the Qing Dynasty, and establish our Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!"
Hearing Yang Xiuqing's words and looking at Hong Xiuquan's expression of approval, Hong Rengan could only sigh in his heart. There was really no way that the God-Worship Society and the Ming Dynasty could come together! In fact, this matter had already happened
It was expected, because Hong Xiuquan has always regarded himself as the "King of Man" and the "Second Son of God" among Guangxi believers! And not only
Hong Xiuquan is the second son of God. Even Feng Yunshan, Yang Xiuqing, Xiao Chaogui, Wei Changhui and other key members of the God-worshipping society are also the third, fourth, fifth and sixth sons of God... If these gods really surrender to Zhu Jishi, they will want Zhu Jishi.
