Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Seven: My Beam Is Dead
What is fear of the unknown?
Perhaps the braids of later generations have the most say in this regard.
The only thing about closing the country is that when did the people at that time experience the power of firearms?
The Eight-Nation Alliance fought from Tianjin Port to the capital. The number of the joint army was about 16,000, including: 8,000 Japanese troops, 4,800 Russian troops, 3,000 British troops, 2,100 American troops, 800 French troops, 50 Austrian troops, and 53 Italian troops.
They said they were in, but according to relevant records, they walked in slowly and had no resistance along the way.
However, I don't think there is anything to resist, and it is better to say that a passionate man who passed by stepped forward but died under the rifle of the coalition forces.
As for the senior national leaders who have a considerable degree of weapons and equipment?
The number of the imperial troops stationed in Beijing has increased greatly, and the coalition forces also have a advantage in territory (local combat, no logistical problems), and the people (the Boxer Rebellion was against the foreign countries).
The weapons and equipment are basically the same as the coalition forces, and some of the equipment of the imperial guards in the capital are even better than that of the coalition forces.
But in the end, it was a crushing defeat.
Rather than saying it is a crushing defeat, it is a defeat because the upper rulers have weak will to resist and the army is backward in tactics and have no determination to die.
So, Master Liang fell down, and the Empress fled with her stupid son.
The tree falls and the money scatters are scattered, which is about the current Liang Kingdom. The situation is so similar in the two time and spaces in the front and back!
Liang State, oh, no, the current Liang State is dead in name only.
The big square in front of the main gate of the Imperial City.
Xi Junmai Shishi Ran climbed up to the high platform and overlooked the city guards who were gathering in a sparse manner.
The city guards at this time did not know what was happening in the palace.
The moment before, they were still confronting Xie Yingdeng's five thousand iron cavalry on the city wall.
However, Xie Yingdeng's volley of Zhuge crossbows shattered their glass hearts.
At this moment, the commanders of the city garrison received the order to transfer the tiger talisman.
Everyone thought that the Liang army was going to reorganize the army to fight back, but who knew that when they rushed over, they saw that it was not Feng Duan who took the tiger talisman, nor was it Liang army.
"Look at me!"
Among the crowd, sharp-eyed soldiers pointed to both sides of the platform.
Everyone looked up and realized that at some point, the two Liang Kingdom flags on the platform were replaced by two red flags with red characters with yellow characters on the red ones.
"Xi?" Someone said in fear: "They are people from Xijiazhuang and Xijiazhuang in Shuofang East City?"
In recent times, various strange events and a wide range of commodities have also been spreading in Shuofang West City.
The soldiers guarding the city gate can see the caravans delivered from Shuofang East City almost every day, so they are naturally familiar with Xijiazhuang.
Xi Junmai looked in the voice, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. Someone knew that his identity was the best, so he could not even introduce himself.
Xi Junmai didn't want to be too long-winded because his younger brother said that the villain died because he talked too much.
Nodded to the servant behind him.
Two of the servants walked out of the queue, holding a thunder fire in their hands, and threw it towards a row of pottery pots on the street not far away.
Boom~
The clay pots flew, and the knocked-off pottery even hit several innocent city guards.
The guards of the cities were so scared that they ran away in all directions, but they had not yet run far away.
On the high platform, ten servants raised their 98k and shot straight into the sky.
The huge gunshot scared the city guards below the stage. Many people hugged their heads with their hands, lay down on the spot, turned their heads carefully looking at the high platform.
Xi Junmai said loudly: "Du Te's mother, who doesn't want to die, is upright for labor and capital. Whoever runs away, he will fall to the ground next."
Upon hearing this, the city guards stood up tremblingly and looked at Xi Junmai in horror.
"Very good, I won't say nonsense. From today on, Shuofang West City will no longer be the capital of Liang State, and you are not the city guards of Liang State, but the city guards of Xijiazhuang, Shuofang. Do you understand?"
"Listen...understand, understand..." A weak and inaudible response came from the field.
Xi Junmai's eyebrows frowned slightly, took a 98k, and another shot, aiming directly at the bluestone slab under the feet of a soldier in the field.
Looking at the bluestone slab that exploded under his feet inexplicably, the poor soldier was almost scared and hurriedly raised his head and shouted: "Give me up, no, listen, I understand. From now on, I, Zhang San, will be a soldier from Xijiazhuang in Shuofang!"
Xi Junmai looked at the man with satisfaction, and at the same time, he was glancing at the others leisurely.
All the city guards who felt Xi Junmai's sight trembled in their hearts, and then they almost blurted out: "I understand!"
Although the response was still rare, Xi Jun bought it. The city guards, which were shocked by thunder and fire and 98k, were even worse than ordinary people at this time. If there were really disobedient people, they would be killed.
Xi Junmai turned his head to look at the servants behind him with satisfaction and ordered: "You should quickly organize these people to open warehouses and release grains to appease the people in the city. By the way, although they dare not resist now, they are not sure what to think in the future. Therefore, it is best for you to inform us of our welfare and benefits intentionally or unintentionally. If they insist on leaving after hearing this, it doesn't matter. We are not short of these people."
The servants looked at each other, just carrot sticks, they had long been used to Xi Yunfei's gadgets.
Although he was "deeply harmed", whenever he received salary and various benefits, he was so grateful to Xi Yunfei that he wanted to kneel down and recognize his father. People are such a contradictory creature.
After the servants took the order and left, Xi Junmai turned around and looked towards the city gate.
I don’t know if Mr. Xie has entered the city?
The plan went too smoothly. I originally wanted Xie Yingdeng to take the lead, but he and others rushed from the side.
But I didn't expect that the people in Liang Shidu were so afraid of death, and the Queen Yang was running very fast.
"Captain, Liang Shi is awake."
Behind Xi Junmai, a servant trotted over to report.
Xi Junmai nodded in surprise. Unexpectedly, he was so seriously injured that this guy was not dead yet?
After thinking about it, Xi Junmai followed the Ding Chao Imperial City directly.
The two of them rode their horses all the way, and there were no rules that could not ride horses in the imperial palace.
In just a moment, he arrived at the Imperial Guard. The commander in charge of the Imperial City was bandaging the wounds of Liang Shidu.
The two of them didn't notice that Xi Jun was here to buy it.
Master Liang choked and cried: "My big beam is dead..."
The commander of the imperial guards was also a tiger and shouted in pain: "Your Majesty, I am so sorry, Liang State is gone, and the Empress has also run away, but you still have me."
Master Liang was stunned when he heard this, suppressed the severe pain from his arms, and said coldly: "What did you say? That bitch Yang actually left me and ran away by himself?"
The commander of the Imperial Guard nodded: "I ran away, all ran away. The queen ran to the Turks, and the other concubines also ran back to their parents' home. Only Concubine Xin was captured, and she didn't know how to live or die."
Master Liang didn't expect that Yang was so cruel. Everyone said that the couple was the same forest bird. It was really a disaster and it was really a very good woman.
At this time, Xi Junmai's teasing voice came from behind the commander of the imperial guards.
"Actually, you should be glad that Yang did not take you to die."
Master Liang saw Xi Junmai, his eyes were about to break. He looked up at Xi Junmai with pain and said, "What do you mean?"
Xi Junmai laughed and said, "Do you remember someone gave you a mirror and dozens of fragrant pancreas a few days ago?"
Master Liang didn't understand why.
Xi Junmai said funnyly: "Those things were originally gifts given to Asuna Wudu by my second brother, but they were robbed halfway. Do you understand what I mean?"
Master Liang was not stupid, and his forehead was filled with cold sweat, staring at Xi Junmai in disbelief.
If I brought those who fled to the Turks in the east and west today for help, I would definitely present the Khan of Jili in person.
And Ashinawudu is Jie Li's financial officer, then...
Master Liang showed a confused look in his eyes. Only then did he realize that he had even blocked his own retreat!
