"Do you think I would be so careless? These guards are also party members. Today's 34 Association is completely controlled by our party members. Eighty percent of the officers are party members, and many of the soldiers are also party members." Wu Ziyu laughed. .

"That's good, what is Comrade Wu going to do next?" Zhu Daizhen asked.

Wu Ziyu frowned and said: "After counting the battlefield, Qin Zageng and Xiong Kewu are not here. I have interrogated several prisoners. It seems that during the war, they walked along the path with a small number of cronies. We need to continue to pursue. "

"Alright, go and call Hou Baozhai." Zhu Daizhen said to the guards behind him, and soon Hou Baozhai, who had been marching with the team, came over with some people, and he saluted the two of them, "My lords, look for me." What's the matter?"

"Qin Zageng fled along the path, do you know there is a path nearby?" Zhu Daizhen asked.

Hou Baozhai nodded: "There are many small roads in the mountainous area, and there are at least a dozen of them nearby. I don't know which road Qin Zageng ran from?" When Hou Baozhai said this, both of them were a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect that there were so many small roads nearby. It is very troublesome to chase down.

"It would be great if Chen Hu and the others were here. These people are masters in tracking and disappearing." Zhu Daizhen shook his head.

"It doesn't matter. Qin Zageng's territory is in Shunqing Mansion. I guess he fled back to his hometown. Since we can't track him down, let's go ahead and block him. By the way, we will also rectify the Brother-Old Association in the Shunqing Mansion area and bring it under our control." With a clear head, Wu Ziyu immediately thought of such a good way to expand the results of the battle.

"Our joint defense militiamen go with you, I want to avenge the martyrs who died." Zhu Daizhen then told the heroic deeds of Lao Chen and others.

Wu Ziyu nodded again and again: "Our fighters are really brave and awe-inspiring. It's just that it's okay for us to pursue as a new army. If you go together, it will be easy to get the truth. If others think that you are the chairman's support The private soldiers will be in great trouble. I think you should return to defense immediately, and the rest will be left to the new army."

"How is this possible? The soldiers are all emotional." Zhu Daizhen spread his hands.

"Comrade Zhu Daizhen, we are all our own people. Your hatred is also our hatred. Will we stand by and watch? Everything is based on the overall situation. What's more, most of the rebels have been wiped out. Your revenge can be regarded as revenge. Just let me deal with it, and don't delay the important matter because of a moment of loyalty." Wu Ziyu is older, so he naturally wants to persuade the upright and vigorous Zhu Daizhen.

"Okay, in that case, let's go back to the Ningyuan Hall immediately, and leave the matter of dealing with Qin Zageng to you. Hou Baozhai, you should act with the new army, and bring more people to recruit the entire Shunqing Mansion's Gelaohui. Since they don't Righteousness comes first, and we will show no mercy." Zhu Daizhen's tone was quite harsh.

"My lords, don't worry, even if Qin Zageng escapes with his life this time, his power will be destroyed." Hou Baozhai nodded.After cleaning up the battlefield near Qianwei County, Wu Ziyu and Zhu Daizhen waved goodbye, and they each rushed to their goals.At this time, Zhao Shouhong, who was sitting in the Ningyuan Hall waiting for the news in order to preside over the overall situation, ushered in an angry guest.

"Master Zhao, I want to resign. I can't continue my job here." Huang Yanpei wanted to resign angrily as soon as they met.

Zhao Shouhong was not in a hurry at all. He leaned back in his chair and asked with a smile, "Mr. Huang, why bother? Why do you have to resign if you have any questions?"

"I figured it out. Your revolution is fake, but expanding your power is real." Huang Yanpei's anger didn't fade at all, and he asked Zhao Shouhong angrily: "I ask you, why did you send troops to attack the revolutionary comrades, Xiong Kewu? The uprising in Qianwei County was already successful, but you surrounded and suppressed it, how are you different from the court eagles?"

"My lord, I also feel a little inappropriate about this matter. After all, the goal of the Gongjin Association is the same as ours, which is to overthrow the corrupt post-Jin court." Zhang Liewu happened to come to Zhao Shouhong on something, and he was beside him Hearing Huang Yanpei's questioning, he also expressed his opinion, but with Huang Yanpei present, he dared not call Chairman Zhao Shouhong.

Chapter 166

"Liewu, is your idea also the idea of ​​Zhicheng and Mingjue?" Zhao Shouhong felt that there was a tendency of ideological division in the party, and he had to kill these signs.

Zhang Liewu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Many people sympathize with the Gongjinhui and also expressed their support for their uprising in Qianwei County." The implicit meaning in Zhang Liewu's words naturally refers to many people.

Zhao Shouhong said with a cold face: "In this case, you all go to the battlefield with me to have a look. Let's speak with facts and see if these rebels are really dedicated to overthrowing Hou Jin's rule, and whether they are desperate for doctrine."

Seeing that Zhao Shouhong was angry, Zhang Liewu wanted to step forward to explain a few words, but was frightened by the other party's eyes. "Call all those who have the same thoughts as you, let's go and have a look together. I will not force you to stay. If you have seen the battlefield and still think the same way, I will allow you to leave." Zhao Shouhong's meaning is natural He was allowed to quit the party, and after he finished speaking, he strode out of the living room without looking back.

Seeing that Zhao Shouhong had already left, Huang Yanpei and Zhang Liewu glanced at each other, and they had no choice but to follow.Zhao Shouhong planned to educate these people with practical examples, so he mobilized many carts and loaded them with Huang Yanpei and others.Under the protection of the guard company, the convoy headed for the depths of the Liangshan area.

The Ningyuanting Industrial Zone where Zhao Shouhong was located was not too far from the battlefield. They followed the Anning River Valley all the way to the north, and soon penetrated into the Liangshan area.When the Mengzu villages along the way heard that Zhao Shouhong was passing through the border, they all warmly welcomed him. They greeted Zhao Shouhong in the same way that the Mengzu treats the most distinguished guests, which made the marching speed of the entire convoy drop again and again.

Huang Yanpei couldn't help sighing in his heart looking at those Meng people who really loved Zhao Shouhong.Regardless of the opponent's revolutionary ideas, at least in terms of the love and affection of the people, it has far surpassed the Gongxinghui and Gongjinhui.At this time, Huang Yanpei had a hint of regret in his heart. He felt that perhaps Zhao Shouhong's ideas were correct. He was trying to correct the dilapidated ship Hualan, hoping to take it to avoid the dangerous shoal and speed up.Perhaps supporting Zhao Shouhong so that he can hold the rudder of the ship as soon as possible is what I should do most.

After walking for more than half a day, they passed through more than ten villages before they arrived at the ambush circle that Zhu Daizhen had set up.At this time, the work of cleaning the battlefield is still not over, and a small number of joint defense militiamen are collecting corpses for burning and burying to prevent the occurrence of the plague, and the rebels who were captured along the way are also being held here.

"Lord Zhao, look at how heavy the rebel army has suffered. It's all because of your subordinates." Seeing so many dead people and captives squatting in a sheltered place with their heads bowed, Huang Yanpei felt a little excited again .

Zhao Shouhong said: "But Mr. Huang, have you ever thought about it? This is tens of kilometers away from Qianwei County, and where is the only destination along the valley?" Then he recruited the officers who came to greet him: "Go to those prisoners Inside, find someone who can take care of things."

Soon a prisoner with a high position was brought in. This person was a close friend of Qin Zaigeng's subordinates of the Gelaohui, so he naturally knew much more.Seeing Zhao Shouhong and a group of high officials here, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, pleading death penalty.

Zhao Shouhong said: "If I ask you, you must answer truthfully, otherwise you will be killed on the ground."

"Yes, sir, just ask, I will tell you what I know." The prisoner was so frightened that he kowtowed like garlic, and his whole body was trembling.

"Let me ask you, why did Xiong Kewu and Qin Zageng bring you here?" Zhao Shouhong asked.

The prisoner quickly said: "My lord, it's Qin Zageng's fault, but I was forced. They heard that Ningyuan hall is very rich and there are many big factories, so they want to rob it." Qin Zageng's opponents naturally wouldn't say A complete military plan, in order to encourage his subordinates to speed up the march, his order was to go to the rich industrial area of ​​Ningyuan Hall to rob.

"It's impossible. You're slandering the rebel army. How could you know such a secret thing?" Huang Yanpei was furious. He felt that Zhao Shouhong might have hired this person to perfuse him.

The man was so frightened that he quickly kowtowed and said, "Your Excellency, I dare not lie. I am the incense master under Qin Zageng, so I know more. That's what the steering handle told us. There are gold and silver in the Ningyuan hall." , we can have big bowls of wine and big pieces of meat. If we want women, there are beauties everywhere, we can..."

"Shut up." Zhang Liewu couldn't be more angry, raised his foot, and kicked the captive in the face.With a scream, the prisoner turned into a rolling gourd.

"Could it be that the rebel army is really like bandits? I don't believe it. This may be the thinking of a few green skins who mixed in with the rebel army, and it cannot represent the rebel army." Years of beliefs are about to collapse, and Huang Yanpei feels unspeakable depression in his heart. No matter what, I don't want to believe the truth.

Zhang Liewu said: "My lord, we have already made it clear that this group of Gongjinhui wants to plead for the people in name, but they are actually a group of bastards for self-interest. If your lord fights well, these people should all be wiped out." They I didn't have many illusions about the Gongjinhui, so my thoughts changed quickly, and other comrades in the party also nodded in agreement.

Zhao Shouhong nodded. The comrades in the party still have a good impression of him, and naturally they are more willing to believe what is beneficial to him.Looking at Huang Yanpei with absent-minded eyes, Zhao Shouhong knew that a prisoner's words were not enough to make him give up his illusions completely, so he waved his hand and said, "Since Mr. Huang doesn't believe it, we can move on, and there is another place to prove it. "Then he didn't care how Huang Yanpei reacted, turned around and got into the carriage.

The group moved forward again. After more than ten kilometers of roads, they abandoned their cars and climbed the mountain, and soon approached Shanatuo Village, where houses were still being repaired.At this time, Zhu Daizhen had returned with his troops, and the joint defense militiamen did not return to their villages and towns, but gathered in Shanatuo Village. They wanted to help the villagers repair their houses and bury the martyrs at the same time.

"My lord." Looking at Huang Yanpei accompanying him, Zhu Daizhen did not call out the chairman.

Zhao Shouhong looked at the head of the top ten marshals who were famous all over the country in later generations, nodded with a smile and said: "Tell us about the things here, we want to know the situation."

"Yes, my lord." Zhu Daizhen then told about the night attack on Sanatuan Village, the brave struggle of the armed task force and the militia, and finally Lao Chen's heroic sacrifice to cover the retreat.Zhu Daizhen's eloquence was good, and she said things with sound and form, which made everyone's eyes turn red, and even Huang Yanpei was deeply moved.

Chapter 167 National Integration Plan

"Have all the martyrs been buried?" Zhao Shouhong asked concerned.

"I was buried just now according to the military ceremony, and it's on the hill to the west." Zhu Daizhen pointed to the direction of the martyr's tomb.

"Come on, let's go and have a look." Zhao Shouhong walked along the gravel-paved mountain road towards the direction of the martyrs' tomb.With a solemn expression, Zhao Shouhong led many officials to the tomb of the martyrs on foot.Seeing Zhao Shouhong coming in person, all the Meng people in Sanatuo Village put down their work and followed him up the mountain.

Facing the crude martyr's tomb piled up with stones, Zhao Shouhong took off his hat and bowed deeply.Many officials behind him also bowed, while the officers and guards gave a solemn military salute.Seeing Zhao Shouhong and others saluting, the people of the Meng clan who surrounded them all knelt down spontaneously.A child who was only four or five years old was ignorant and didn't know what the adults were doing, so he stood there in a daze, at a loss.

The child's mother grabbed the child, made him kneel on the ground and said, "My child, you must remember that the soldiers buried in these tombs are Lord Zhao's soldiers. Although they are Hualan people, they treat us like brothers and sisters. They are here for us." You have to remember, and let your children and grandchildren remember that our Meng people have clear grievances and grievances. Lord Zhao’s soldiers can risk their lives to protect us, and we must also risk our lives to support Lord Zhao and eliminate those cannibals. Jackal."

"I remember." The child nodded firmly, and then he kowtowed vigorously to the tomb of the martyrs a few times.

"Mr. Huang, do you still think that the insurgents are all righteous?" Zhao Shouhong put his hands behind his back and looked at the dazed Huang Yanpei.

Huang Yanpei's face turned blue and pale, and his expression was beyond complex.Although the conversation between mother and son was not loud just now, he could hear it clearly. Thinking that the revolutionary army he supported had become a jackal in the hearts of the people, he was burning with anger.

After a long time, Huang Yanpei sighed and said: "Perhaps Mr. Sun is really eager for success. In order to overthrow the rule of Hou Jin, it is really not worth paying such a high price. I hope I can write a letter to him and persuade him to give up the party. illusions, otherwise the revolution will suffer even greater losses."

Zhao Shouhong shook his head with a smile and said: "I can't control the military and economic strength, everything is just in vain. According to my estimation, Mr. Sun should have seen the unreliability of the party forces, and they will shift their focus to the new army in the next step. , It's a pity that this kind of thinking is also a dream.

There may be some lower-level officers and soldiers in the new army who aspire to the revolution, but once the event is successful, those higher-level officers who yearn for fame will quickly control the situation and steal the fruits of the revolution.I hope you can talk more about these words with Mr. Sun so that he can wake up as soon as possible. "

Huang Yanpei nodded again and again: "I will definitely convey it to Mr. Sun, and I will also tell him about the situation here, maybe he can get some inspiration." Although he didn't want to admit it, Huang Yanpei had to talk about Zhao Shouhong's development Indeed more productive.

Zhao Shouhong expressed condolences to the Meng people present, and promised to send people to help restore the village. At the same time, he also announced that the militiamen who died this time will enjoy the treatment of martyrs, and their families will be properly taken care of.Zhao Shouhong's approach made the Meng people in the village more convinced him, and he also unified the party's thinking through such examples.With the help of the education of examples, the party has a deeper sense of identity with Zhao Shouhong's theory.The same is true outside the party. Even hard-core Gongxing members like Huang Yanpei have also been shaken.

In order to stabilize the place, Zhao Shouhong ordered Zhang Jiexian and others to strengthen the management of the Gelaohui, especially to strictly investigate those who have contacts with She Ying and the others, and monitor them if they are found.In addition, Zhao Shouhong started his national integration plan.

The ethnic composition in western Sichuan is complex, and although the Hualan people make up the majority, they cannot really occupy the overwhelming majority.Zhao Shouhong's Great Hualanism is very inclusive, but there is a prerequisite for it, that is, there is a dominant ethnic group with a majority of the population. For the Hualan Kingdom, this ethnicity is none other than the Hualan ethnic group.For other ethnic groups, there are many ways to integrate into the entire Hualan nation, but for the various ethnic minorities in the country, Zhao Shouhong hopes to integrate them into the Hualan nation in as gentle a way as possible.
