Lu Zigao showed a look of disdain on his face and said sarcastically: "For those of you with the surname Dong, you know the evil ways of the Hunyuan Sect and the Bagua Sect."
When the person being called Dong heard it, he immediately shouted sharply: "You are not allowed to use your last name or your first name. Have you fucking forgotten what you said before?!"
At this time, Yarha looked at Lu Zigao with hatred and said bitterly: "Lu Zigao, you are actually a spy. I am really blind!"
Lu Zigao cupped his fists and said, "Brother Yalha, don't blame me. Everything is good for you in Beihai Town, but it's a pity that it doesn't give us scholars a way out, so I have no choice but to make this move."
"Not giving you a way out?" Yaerha was a little confused. For him, raising horses was the most important thing in his life, and he didn't care much about other things. In his opinion, Lu Zigao was responsible for accounting at the racecourse.
He can get more than ten silver dollars every month, and he is also given fifty acres of land north of Fuldan City. The treatment is already very good.
"Hmph~ I have been studying poetry and books since I was a child. All I have ever thought about is that one day I will be able to stand out and show off what I have learned. If it hadn't been for the severe drought in the 51st year of Qianlong's reign and my family was really poor, I would have won the imperial examination.
.I originally thought that I might be useful in Beihai Town, but who would have thought that Zhao Xin actually looks down on our generation of scholars..."
At this time, the man surnamed Dong suddenly raised his left hand that was around Yarha's neck, raised his thumb, and hit Yarha's temple with his thick knuckles. Yarha's eyes suddenly went dark and he fainted immediately.
In the past, the man surnamed Dong scolded: "What nonsense are you talking to a horseman? Hurry up and get down to business!"
Lu Zigao saw that he was about to go out, so he quickly said: "Why don't you tie him up?"
The man surnamed Dong said disdainfully: "People who I, Dong Yulin, knock out will never wake up within two hours."
Dong Yulin, a native of Mijiayan Village in the south of Guan County, Shandong Province, was once the leader of Bagua Cult. He practiced martial arts since he was a child and was proficient in Bagua Boxing.
In the seventh month of the fifty-first year of Qianlong's reign, an incident involving the Bagua Cult's murder of officials and prison robberies occurred in Daming Mansion, Zhili. Local leaders of the Bagua Cult, Duan Wenjing, Xu Kezhan, and others gathered more than fifty followers to attack Daming Mansion. Who knew that they were attacking the treasury?
At that time, as officers and soldiers arrived one after another, a group of party members escaped from the gate and went to Daming and Yuancheng counties to rob prisons. As a result, under the pursuit of officers and soldiers, Duan Wenjing, Xu Kezhan and others hurriedly grabbed their horses and fled, while the rest of the believers fled.
It broke up. A ridiculous "riot" was completely quelled by the government after only a few hours.
However, this kind of cult counter-case involving rebellion still greatly shocked and alerted Qianlong. He was afraid that these people would have collusion with Beihai Town, which was operating under a clear banner outside the customs. For this reason, Qianlong adopted careful arrangements to arrest the escapees.
Duan Wenjing and Xu Kezhan.
In October of that year, Duan and Xu fled to Shandong and sought help from Dong Yulin, a small landowner who was also a Bagua believer. As a result, when Xu Kezhan was arrested, Dong Yulin was also imprisoned. In the fifty-second year of Qianlong's reign, Dong Yulin
The entire family was exiled to Ili.
In November last year, following Qianlong's secret order, He Shen ordered people to find the exiled Dong Yulin. After a sincere conversation, Dong Yulin, a master of Bagua Quan, was naturally willing to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, so he took his family as hostages.
He was sent to Beihai Town to wait for an opportunity to assassinate Zhao Xin.
It needs to be explained that Dong Yulin's Bagua Quan is not the later Baguazhang. Bagua Quan belongs to Shaolin Boxing. The fist moves in a straight line back and forth, with fierce movements and strong attacks. In the early and middle Qing Dynasty, Bagua Quan was
It has been secretly taught within the Bagua Sect, and very little is known to the outside world.
It was already dusk at this time, and most of the workers at the racecourse had already finished work. Lu Zigao, who was holding a lantern, and Dong Yulin, who had his head lowered, were both wrapped in thick green cotton coats, and they hurriedly walked through a stable.
, and soon arrived at the warehouse where the feed was stored.
The two walked around to the small door at the back of the warehouse. Dong Yulin raised his hand and patted it rhythmically a few times. Lu Zigao on the side lit the lantern with a match. The door opened quickly. When the two walked into the warehouse, as the lantern lit up,
The light was slowly brightened by Lu Zigao, and the seven or eight people waiting in the warehouse were all revealed, each holding a sharp weapon at their waist or in their hand.
These people are all followers of the Bagua Cult who came from Yili with Dong Yulin, and they are all very skilled. He Shen's promise to these people is that if they can kill Zhao Xin, they will be rewarded with five thousand taels of silver, promoted to the sixth rank, and granted the title of Chief Qian, as well as their parents and wives.
The children were released from Ili to their native places.
This reward is already very high. Don’t forget that Dong Yulin and the others are prisoners of the assassination. Being able to become officials is already a blessing for their ancestors. The green camp military system in the Qing Dynasty was divided into standard, association, camp, and flood. Among them, "flood"
"It is led by President Qian, with a military strength of five hundred to one thousand men.
Not counting the top three, many genuine martial artists are ranked sixth grade. If Li Dagang, a martial artist who is still digging coal in Ezo, knew this, he would definitely be filled with emotion.
The reason why Lu Zigao, who was the accountant of the racecourse, rebelled was very complicated. As he said to Yalha before, Beihai Town looked down on scholars from the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Everyone knows that flexibility is better for survival, but it is really not that easy to change the concept that "everything is inferior, only studying is superior"!
In fact, he was not the only one, including Wang Zhong. These scholars who had read the Four Books and Five Classics and were good at writing eight-legged essays were basically at a loss when faced with all the unheard-of technical machinery and supporting systems in Beihai Town.
and at a loss.
The biggest problem here is that there is no imperial examination. The ancients spent ten or even decades in poverty, studying the books of sages, with the purpose of becoming an official through the imperial examination, so as to realize their political ambition of "organizing the family, governing the country and bringing peace to the world". Of course
, making money is a by-product.
With the use of a large number of mechanical equipment in Beihai Town, the four-people social structure of "scholars, farmers, industry and commerce" that had lasted for thousands of years in the pass was broken, and the boundaries became increasingly blurred.
Many families are counted as both agricultural and industrial people. They have fifty acres of land allocated to them by Zhao Xin, but the cultivation of these farmland is completed through large-scale agricultural machinery and equipment and high-standard farmland construction led by the civil administration.
As a result, these people were freed from the day-to-day heavy farming and entered workshops, the army and the civil administration system.
This means that the core position of the most important class of scholars in agricultural society has become no longer important, and the cultural environment in which they originally established virtues, established opinions, and performed meritorious services began to be lost.
Some people are close to the core of Beihai Town and can often communicate with Zhao Xin and others, so they are able to accept the change and are trying their best to find their own position. For example, Wang Zhong and Jiang Tenglin; while some people are far away from the core and cannot
So easy to accept.
Today, Lu Zigao is no longer the starving scholar who could eat five big buns at a meal when he first came to Beihai Town. He eats and drinks every day, and other desires gradually surface. He has food, drink and money.
, the next step should be for the master to raise a concubine and a large courtyard of slaves and servants.
The problem is that Beihai Town does not allow anything except food, drink and clothing, which makes Lu Zigao increasingly dissatisfied. As time goes by, he misses the many benefits of the familiar Manchu system.
Flies don't bite seamless eggs. One time, he drank too much in a tavern in the town and complained a few words. As a result, he was noticed by someone who was interested. After going back and forth, when the other party confirmed that this was a guy who could be seduced, Lu Zigao already knew what he was doing.
Lu Zigao felt that he had fallen into a trap. Then when the other party offered him the official position and silver reward promised by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Lu Zigao was moved.
In the huge wooden panel warehouse, straw bags and sacks containing beans were piled three meters high, neatly tied with hemp rope. Several horse farm workers, whose hands and feet were tied and their mouths were choked with ropes, were lying in the dark.
In the corner, he twisted his body uneasily.
"Brother, when will we do it?"
Dong Yulin said: "Wait a little longer, it's not completely dark now. After a while, the fire breaks out, the four of you just rush out. The others follow me, take advantage of the chaos to go around from the north, and go straight to the man's house."
"Brother, what if that person is not at home?"
"Taking away his family is also a great achievement."
...
A group of self-righteous thieves thought that what they had done was perfect, and with Lu Zigao as an insider, they thought they could give Zhao Xinlai a hard blow.
The problem is that after the power plant in Beihai Town was officially put into operation and the power gap was resolved, Zhao Xin, who was well versed in the ways of the turtle flow, installed cameras at intersections, inside and outside factories and warehouses, and in military camps in the town. All cameras were located in the west of Beihai Town.
The communication station at the foot of the mountain provides real-time monitoring.
As the total population of Beihai Town exceeded 300,000, he knew that whether it was Beihai Town or Fuldan City, there must be Manchu spies. In the previous Kong Konger murder case, the murderer himself came by boat from northern Jiangsu
Yes, after the case was solved, we conducted a comprehensive investigation and uncovered several of them.
When several of Dong Yulin's men were doing something in the warehouse, they were caught by the officers on duty. The security police who got the news quickly took action.
At this time, a group of Bagua Cult thieves were still waiting for dark in the warehouse, while the security police of Beihai Town, with the cooperation of a company of Bei Haijun, had surrounded the entire racecourse and continued to narrow the encirclement.
In the dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the open space of the racecourse. In the mottled light and shadow, almost no one noticed that there were three black drones making a subtle buzzing sound dozens of meters in the air.
Soon, the security police who searched Yalha who was unconscious in the office were the first to find him. A group of seven people quickly rushed into the office and immediately took him to the hospital.
"How many of them are there? How's Yalha's injury?" Zhao Xin came after hearing the news, but he didn't expect that something happened to Yalha on his back just as he walked away.
Police Chief Katayama saluted him and said in a deep voice: "Ten people are hiding in the feed warehouse. I guess they want to wait until it is completely dark before taking action. Yalha has been sent to the hospital. His injuries are serious.
It's very serious. This is my dereliction of duty, please punish me."
Deng Fei, who came over after hearing the news, advised: "Zhao Xin, we have more people now, and a lot of messy people have mixed in. We need to clean it up."
Zhao Xin's face was a little gloomy. At this moment, he was very glad that he had spent a lot of money on surveillance.
The past few years in Beihai Town have been a little too smooth. They conquered here and there and pushed all the enemies to the ground. Many people gradually lost their vigilance. However, only he knew that whether it was in the 18th century or another time and space, he
If you make even the slightest mistake in your mission, you will fall short in such a huge situation.
Managing an area with a population of hundreds of thousands and an area of millions of square kilometers is still different from managing a large company. I am still too green.
"Director, everyone is in place and waiting for orders."
Hearing the voice coming from the wireless intercom, Katayama raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin said calmly: "What should I do? Don't look at me."
Deng Fei on the side said: "Let them pay attention to the safety of the workers inside."
Katayama nodded, then picked up the intercom and gave the order to start action.
At the back door of the feed warehouse, twenty security policemen holding .357-caliber lever rifles stood on both sides of the door. In front of them were two guys holding metal explosion-proof shields.
As the captain in charge waved his hand, an extremely strong security policeman carried a 25-kilogram door knocker copied from the Beihai Town Steel Plant, rushed forward two steps, and then waved his arm vigorously, "click"
With a sound, the lock on the back door of the warehouse was knocked open.
Immediately afterwards, the shield bearer took cover, and other security police rushed in one after another.
"Put down your weapons, raise your hands and surrender!"
Just before the back door was about to be opened, Dong Yulin, who was closing his eyes and concentrating, suddenly jumped up from the ground. When several people around him were about to speak, they saw him covering his lips with his fingers, and they immediately understood. So.
Several people took out their knives and hid behind the straw bags. Lu Zigao was so frightened that his face turned pale. He hurriedly extinguished the lantern and jumped behind a pile of sacks. He could not stop trembling all over.
Fortunately, the explosion-proof shield rushed in first. If there was no cover, whoever entered first would be hit.
As soon as the two security policemen holding shields entered the door, two black shadows shot out from the darkness, "Boom! Boom!" Two sounds struck the shield made of thick aluminum alloy plates, and then fell to the ground.
.
Immediately afterwards, a figure jumped down from a pile of straw bales, and a bright sword flashed past, aiming to slash at the person who had just rushed in.
These gangsters who followed Dong Yulin had no escape route. If they dared to return to Hunchun empty-handed, they would be beheaded immediately. Moreover, their families were still imprisoned in Yili, so they could not seek refuge in Beihai Town.
"Bang!" There was a loud sound, and the firelight flashed. The gangster who was preparing for a sneak attack fell to the ground. His thigh was broken by a gunshot, and he fainted from the pain.
(Don’t let the movie fool you, even if the security policeman is holding a .50-caliber Barrett, the person who is shot will not be thrown backwards.)
Seeing that there was no way out, Dong Yulin shouted: "Get out! Fight them!"
After he finished speaking, others jumped out and prepared to fight with the security police, but he himself slipped back towards the front door. Little did he know that all his movements were caught by the infrared camera on the roof of the warehouse. Dong Yulin effortlessly
He moved the door latch, which weighed more than 30 kilograms, and opened the door with all his strength. Suddenly, he saw a bright light in front of him, and several bright lights hit him, making him unable to even open his eyes.
"It's over! The magic of these rebels is actually more powerful than the leader!" This was Dong Yulin's last thought before throwing away the dagger in his waist.
