Section 12 Lingao City

 Section 12 Lingao City

Guo Yi got excited when he heard this. No wonder the leaders often go abroad. The foreign scriptures recited by foreign monks are indeed different... He quickly asked Xue Ziliang to tell him the details here.

Xue Ziliang asked: "Do you know about the World Republic case?"

"Not sure."

"This is a very typical case, and I think it is very consistent with the current situation." This is a strange case that took place in 1960, a so-called world republic founded by a man named Fuzzy Burt who claimed to be the illegitimate son of Adolf Hitler.

This person announced in the European media: On December 16, 1960, the third flying saucer fleet belonging to Venus will land at Berlin Tambolauf Airport. Az, the commander-in-chief of the Space Rangers will immediately announce that the Earthling Fuzi...

8226; Bert is the President of the Supreme Government of the World Republic. President Furze will immediately demand the surrender of the armies of all countries on the earth, destroy all military ammunition depots, and all soldiers will be prohibited from leaving their barracks.

This case is no different from all kinds of fraud cases. The only difference is that this Fuzzy Burt did not commit any fraud. He sincerely believed that he was the president of the World Republic chosen by the Venusians, so this person was not later held accountable for any crime.

responsibility.

"Is this similar to the situation we are facing? I believe that they feel that they have arrived in a new world from top to bottom. In fact, it is very likely that this is just a desert island in the waters of Vietnam. Maybe it is someone with ulterior motives in the organization.

Someone rented it specially."

"Isn't this just a foreign version of being an emperor..." Xiao Guo yawned, thinking that this is nothing. Since 1949, there have been at least a dozen people in the backwoods of our country who claim to be the emperor. He has nothing to do.

I reviewed these materials when I was working in China - most of the cases are very entertaining.

The explanation was good, but it still couldn't explain the problem of all signals disappearing. While I was thinking about it, the hatch opened and someone threw three blankets in.

"Have a good rest and hit the road tomorrow." The visitor simply informed.

"It seems that we will be moved to another place tomorrow. I have to have a good rest. I will have the strength to walk tomorrow."

, also fell asleep at this time.

As a true Chinese, Xiao Guo has a deep understanding of the profoundness of the Chinese language. "Going on the road" is really an unlucky word for people who are trapped in such an environment.

Meng Xian, who came in throwing a blanket, obviously didn't realize that his unintentional words caused Xiao Guo to lose sleep for half the night. He also scribbled in a small notebook and wrote several pages of suicide notes.

At night, Lingao County was completely silent.

After the watch, the city has been under a curfew, and the dark city looks particularly eerie. Soldiers are standing at the intersections of the stone roads throughout the city, ready to check passers-by. Today, many people have poured in from the four villages and outside the city.

, with their families, some with pigs, cows, chickens, ducks, cats and dogs. The county has opened all the temples and temples along the road to accommodate these farmers who have taken refuge. There are still many people sleeping rough on both sides of the stone road. Even though

They are beasts, and they probably know that disaster is coming, so they rarely cry out. Only the ignorant children are still crying and being scolded by adults in low voices.

Red or white paper lanterns are hung outside the government offices and temple doors. The lights are dim and swaying under the eaves. Under the dim light, you can see notices posted on the walls. From time to time, a watchman carries a small lantern.

, banging the clapper, and walked past with a few Minzhuang.

It is very quiet on the top of the city. There is a lantern not far away, and people are patrolling back and forth on the city wall. Ever since the Bopu beacon tower sounded the alarm early in the morning, and then Inspector Fu fled back in a hurry, the atmosphere in the city has become abnormal.

I was getting nervous. From time to time, people were whispering in the dark shadows of the street.

"Have the pirates retreated by now?" Someone was whispering under the eaves.

"There is no news from each village yet, so it's hard to say."

"This pirate, in the past, they would just grab a ticket and leave. Maybe now the ship will be gone."

"If he really left, would Mr. Wu still call for help?" Someone said mysteriously, "This afternoon, Mr. Wu asked for help after he left."

"The pirates are so powerful?" A dark and thin man was worried. He was a farmer. He managed to save a little bit of family property by opening up wasteland and farming in Lingao. He just married his wife in his hometown last year. This meeting

His wife was hugging a pig tightly. In the two large bamboo cages beside her, the smell of chicken and duck feces was overwhelming, but she didn't care.

"It's not big, it's very big." A person who looked like a small vendor, who had probably seen some of the market, said vividly, "There has been no peace in Guangdong and Guangxi in the past few years. What is Yang Er, Liu Xiang, and the army?

There is nothing we can do about them. Marshal Yu has killed them countless times, with more defeats and fewer wins. I heard that the imperial court is discussing recruiting troops."

"It will be peaceful if we recruit people," someone said.

"Taiping, I don't think so." The little merchant said angrily, "That Yang Erzhao succeeded once, but in the end it still harmed the people. I have been worried every time I cross the sea in the past two years. The third talisman of Silk Village is when I cross the sea.

Those who were killed, even their bodies were gone..."

"This pirate is not going to attack the county town, is he?"

"It was time to besiege the county seat when the Lebanese uprising broke out in Nan Village thirty years ago. My grandfather even recruited people to defend the city. Those Li people were like crazy. They attacked the city in huge crowds. Later, Ma Yan came again.

Once, although we did not attack the city, we did not dare to open the city gate."

"I should be able to pass without incident this time."

As they were talking, Mr. Dianshi was walking through the street with a few people. Seeing the lively chatter of these people, he couldn't help shouting loudly: "Barbarians are talking nonsense. If you continue to talk nonsense, I will not punish you for disturbing people's hearts!"

"

When the master showed his power, no one dared to say a word. Since the martial law started this morning, there have been more than ten unlucky ones who have been dragged away and slapped with the shackles because they said a few words or looked a few more times.

Seeing that Mr. Dianshi had led the people far away, the little merchant muttered: "I only know how to show my power to the common people, and if I have the ability to fight pirates..."

"Stop saying a few words!" An old man stopped him, "When is this? Chew on this useless tongue."

Tonight, the Lingao County Magistrate is sitting in the flower hall. His name is Wu Mingjin, a native of Nanzhili. He is nearly fifty years old, and his hair has turned gray. He was supposed to be a candidate for public examination, but the exam was wasted, and he is no longer in his forties.

When he was admitted to the county magistrate, he still went to this place in the south. Although Lingao was established as a county a long time ago, even if it was moved from the county seat to Mocun, it was five hundred years ago. But in his view, as a Nanzhi native

It is still a barren and barren land. Since taking office, he has also tried his best to do something for the people, repair water conservancy, open up wasteland, encourage farmers to teach... to leave a good name. However, natural and man-made disasters have continued in recent years, and the beacon tower along the coast has been

There were several policemen, either shop shops or stone signs, and horses and pirates were attacking everywhere. The officers and soldiers were helpless, so the county had to close its doors and adopt the strategy of "the thieves will go away when they are satisfied". After the autumn of last year, there was another typhoon, and the houses in the villages were

Countless people were destroyed and people were displaced. He ordered people to set up porridge to gather the ownerless corpses, but as a result, an epidemic broke out and many people died.

Originally, he didn't take the warning from the beacon tower seriously. Pirate raids were a common occurrence here. But what Fu Bowen said after escaping with his archers really frightened him.

The pirates were riding a "huge ship" that had never been seen before. The hull was taller than the Dacheng Hall of Lingao Confucian Temple. The ships that followed were each larger than the official warships and did not use sails or oars.

It comes and goes freely on the sea, like a magical skill.

The most incredible thing is that those ships are actually made of iron! A giant ship made of iron can float on the water, which is far beyond his understanding. People have an instinctive fear of things beyond their understanding.

When he saw these people actually starting to land ashore, Fu Bowen quickly led the people back to the county town - he instinctively had a premonition that these people were not the same as any pirates or merchants he had seen and heard in the past.

What's going on, they couldn't have come to Gao just to rob the common people of a few loads of salted fish and a few stones of rice!

Of course Wu Mingjin couldn't just listen to his words - it was common for warriors to exaggerate due to fear of war. In panic, he sent a Zaoli from the Dan family who was familiar with the situation around Bo Pu to visit. At noon

When he came back, Zaoli couldn't even speak. Mr. Wu knew from his confusing description that there were many pirates in this group, numbering in the thousands. After landing, there was a car to go to the beach.

To walk, the cart neither harnesses a horse nor drives an ox. People sit on it and can walk. Some carts can easily lift very large iron boxes and transport them... and there are many more he said.

Unclear things... In a word, this group of people is full of evil spirits.

Now he was anxious. He didn't really believe in sorcery. Wu Mingjin went to Hainan to serve as an official. On the way, he saw Portuguese ships and artillery in Guangdong, and also saw telescopes. He knew that people overseas had many ingenuities.

Who knows if this group of pirates will rely on some exotic overseas objects to attack the county? In addition to Zaoli Yamen, the only available items in Lingao City are eighty minzhuang and twelve bows returned from the inspection department.

In total, there are only over a hundred soldiers.

So he hurriedly asked the county magistrate Wu Ya to take the money to the rear post to move reinforcements. At this time, Wu Ya came back and reported: Thousand households in the rear post agreed, and thirty people and one cannon will be sent over tomorrow morning, but they must be given to each person afterwards.

A reward of one stone of rice.
