In the early morning, the air is refreshing and comfortable, but in the hot summer, I can already feel a bit dry.
Early in the morning, Ye Mingchen got up and finished washing.
After breakfast, Weng Tonghe and the rest of the people came to the house. The group gathered in the hall and chatted to pass the time. Time passed. At about 8:40, the servant of the house walked in and reported: "Master, just now. I received news from the mayor’s residence that Mayor Zhang Zhiping has sent Li Zhen off and returned to the residence from the station.”
"Okay, okay, Li Zhen is finally on his way."
Ye Mingchen laughed, his face full of excitement.
Weng Tonghe asked: "Master Ye, how long is the distance between the place where the explosives were placed and the train station?"
Ye Mingchen thought for a while and replied: "The place where the explosives are placed is an hour and a half drive from the train station. By then, not only will there be explosives, but also cannons purchased by foreigners will be used to bombard Li Zhen's death without a burial place."
"Around ten ten, we are waiting for good news."
Weng Tonghe calculated it and looked forward to it very much.
At this moment, everyone is waiting for the last moment to arrive.
…
Outside Nanjing, somewhere in a hidden mountain, Li Zhen and the accompanying soldiers were inside, easily avoiding the sight of Ye Mingchen, Weng Tonghe and others. Liu Jintang had a smile on his face and said with a smile: "President, I guess Ye Mingchen After receiving the news of your departure, we have already started planning the next thing. When we return to the city, we will scare him half to death."
Huang Qiang said coldly: "Ye Mingchen, Weng Tonghe and others intend to murder the president. These people deserve to die. No one will be spared. All of them will be killed. Only a bloody lesson can make these people regret it."
A group of people were waiting, full of murderous intent.
…
"Kang cut, kuang cut,,."
On the track, there was the sound of a train moving, and the whistle was honking continuously. A train was moving forward quickly. At about ten o'clock, the train approached the place where Ye Mingchen had planted the explosives. On the train, the driver was extremely nervous. He drove the train forward. He knew that the danger level this time was very high, but Zhang Zhiping had already talked to him and made arrangements for his family, so the driver had no choice.
The only thing I can do is pray to God for blessing.
Beside the railway tracks and in the grass beside the road, three men dressed in black were lying prostrate.
As the train approached, the three of them cheered up.
"Lao Yu, the train is here, get ready to light it," one of them said.
The man known as Lao Yu looked serious, staring at the train which was just a black spot, shaking his head and saying: "Don't worry, there is still some time. According to Li Zhen's habit of returning to Nanjing from Guangdong, he must take the first carriage. , I have estimated the burning time of the fuse and the speed of the train. This time, I will blow up the first carriage absolutely safely."
The train gradually approached from far to near.
Suddenly, Lao Yu's eyes narrowed and he quickly lit the fuse.
"Bah, bah,."
The fuse burned and the train came racing.
"withdraw."
Lao Yu yelled and ran away. After about a minute, there was a loud explosion under the first carriage of the train. Then, a bright light flashed and the carriage was directly destroyed. It was even separated from the front of the train and separated from the front of the train. At the same time, another rumbling sound of artillery was heard, and several shells fell on the first carriage, destroying the train.
…
At about 10:20, Ye Mingchen was wearing the official uniform and official hat of a first-class official in the Qing Dynasty. He stood in front of the mirror, looked at the old man with a bright head in the mirror, nodded slightly, and murmured to himself: "This is still the case. Wearing an official uniform is comfortable and majestic. Li Zhen, Li Zhen, you have become a thing of the past, and you are destined not to live long." He carefully looked at himself in the mirror, and carefully combed his already neat beard and hair. Eyebrows, etc., groomed meticulously.
"Sir, a telegram has been sent back and the matter has been settled."
Outside the room, a servant spoke.
Ye Mingchen suddenly smiled, turned around and walked towards the hall. At this time, many people gathered in the hall. Everyone was wearing Qing Dynasty court clothes and official hats. Many people also wore fake braids to dress themselves up. It looks like the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.
Weng Tonghe smiled and said: "Master Ye looks ten years younger in this outfit."
"Oh, really."
Ye Mingchen had a smile on his face, quite proud of himself. He was close to sixty years old. He felt very happy when he heard Weng Tonghe's words. It is said that people are in high spirits when happy events happen. Ye Mingchen shook his sleeves and said loudly: "Let's go meet him." Zhang Zhiping, now is the time for a showdown. I believe that Zhang Zhiping is a person who understands current affairs."
Weng Tonghe then said: "Master Ye went to see Zhang Zhiping to give him face. This time, he will definitely capture Zhang Zhiping. Only Master Ye can succeed in defeating others without fighting."
A steady stream of flattery came from Weng Tonghe's mouth.
Ye Mingchen accepted all comers with a smile, and left the mansion with more than ten people. The group of people took a car and arrived outside the mayor's mansion. Ye Mingchen walked in front, standing in front of the guard guarding the door with his head held high, waving his hands and saying: "Go and deliver a message. I want to see Zhang Zhiping."
"Master Ye, wait a moment, let me report."
The soldier looked at Ye Mingchen's dress and felt strange in his heart.
The guards knew what Ye Mingchen was wearing, but they didn't understand what it meant that Ye Mingchen was wearing Qing Dynasty official uniform. He quickly came to the study to see Zhang Zhiping, told Ye Mingchen's words, and also talked about what Ye Mingchen was wearing. Zhang Zhiping laughed and said : "Search carefully to prevent Ye Mingchen and others from carrying sharp weapons. After Ye Mingchen enters the official residence, seal the official residence and only allow entry and no exit."
"yes."
The soldiers went to deliver the message, while Zhang Zhiping walked towards the hall.
Zhang Zhiping came to the hall. Not long after, officials headed by Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe also entered the hall. Ye Mingchen put his hands behind his back, held his head high, and paused step by step. He stared at Zhang Zhiping as if he was squinting, not paying attention to Zhang Zhiping at all. In his eyes, he looked extremely arrogant, and the officials behind him also held their heads high and acted arrogantly.
Zhang Zhiping sneered in his heart, looking like he was watching a clown's performance.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't take Ye Mingchen seriously.
Ye Mingchen walked into the hall. He did not salute Zhang Zhiping, but directly lifted up his robe and sat down. The officials behind him did the same, sitting down one after another. Ye Mingchen had an arrogant look on his face, as if he was Zhang Zhiping's boss. He also said in a slightly charitable tone: "Mayor Zhang, Li Zhen has left Nanjing."
"Yes, the president has left."
Zhang Zhiping's heart was full of murderous intent. The old guy called the president by his name. He deserved it.
Ye Mingchen said again: "Li Zhen will never be seen again in this world."
"Oh, how do you explain this?" Zhang Zhiping asked, pretending to be confused.
Ye Mingchen laughed twice and said calmly: "Yesterday, I found out the time when Li Zhen was going to return to Beijing. I had already placed explosives on the railway where Li Zhen was returning by train and allowed artillery fire to attack. A quarter of an hour ago, I We have received news that the train Li Zhen was riding in was blown up, causing a crash and everyone was killed. Li Zhen's body was not found. Li Zhen is dead. The country he founded will soon fall apart. Li Zhen dies, and the emperor will soon To rebuild the Qing Dynasty, I came to you to persuade you to submit to the emperor."
"Hahaha……"
Zhang Zhiping laughed immediately, his voice echoing in the hall.
Ye Mingchen's gray brows furrowed, with an unpleasant look on his face. He thought to himself, this Zhang Zhiping was so shameless, and he had already planned to deal with Zhang Zhiping after he surrendered.
