Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 355 Coup
...

When Adjutant Xu learned that Jin Niang was living alone with his younger sister, he couldn't help feeling sorry for this woman.

The army rested and stayed for almost half a month. During this time, Jin Niang came to the entrance of the barracks early every day with a small cigarette case on her back, and Adjutant Xu also waited here every day without any accidents, and continued to buy cigarettes. The two chatted without a word.

On the eve when the army was about to continue marching, Adjutant Xu went into Zhangdou Town to find Jinniang. After seeing the house with four walls, he finally mustered up the courage to ask Jinniang if he would go to Ganzhou with him, where he could give their sisters Provide a better life.

At first, Adjutant Xu was still a little apprehensive, wondering if his behavior would be a little abrupt, but what he didn't expect was that Jinniang agreed quickly, and later he asked Jinniang why she agreed when he was on the road.

And Jin Niang replied bluntly at the time that because he was talking about giving their sisters a good life, not just giving her, this is the most important thing to her.

Adjutant Xu and Jinniang soon got married in Ganzhou. A year after their wedding, they gave birth to a child. Jinniang's younger sister was also well taken care of. Fate always played tricks on people when their lives were flourishing.

The marshal that Adjutant Xu was following died of an old injury, so the son of the old marshal took over the power.

But the new commander-in-chief doesn't have the grand strategy of the old marshal. Maybe he was protected too well and developed the problem of self-willedness.

Under his command, he suffered a few defeats in a row, and the territory shrank again and again, but even so, he did not review his own problems. Instead, he felt that these people left behind by the old marshal had ulterior motives.

So a bloody liquidation began, and Adjutant Xu, as the closest deputy of the old marshal at that time, bore the brunt of the first batch of people to be liquidated.

Xu Jinjiang remembered very clearly that when he was 15 years old, his father suddenly returned home with a serious face and told his mother and aunt to pack their luggage, and if he didn't come back at night, he would leave quickly.

After Adjutant Xu explained, he hurried out, leaving Jinniang and his sister looking at each other.

"Sister, what does brother-in-law mean? Is something going to happen?"

The younger sister looked at Jinniang worriedly, since they followed Adjutant Xu to Ganzhou, they had never seen him so nervous.

"I don't know, just prepare as your brother-in-law said."

"Xiuer, wait, I thought about it, but I still don't think it's safe. In this case, you take Jin Jiang to the house in the south first, and I will stay and wait for your brother-in-law to come back. If brother-in-law Ni comes back, we will go and bring you back." , if we don't come back...do you know how far you can take Jinjiang with you?"

Jin Niang was also very worried, because as Adjutant Xu's bedside person, she more or less knew something about the army, but she didn't want to mention it in front of her sister so as not to scare her.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she felt that this was a little inappropriate, so she quickly stopped her sister and gave some instructions. Xiu'er couldn't help but panicked seeing her sister as if she was explaining her funeral.

"Sister, what happened!"

"I don't know too well, but I probably guess something..."

Jinniang didn't tell her more because she was afraid of scaring Xiu'er before, but she thought that if it was true as she guessed, something might happen if Xiu'er couldn't help running back to check, so she took her from Xu'er earlier. Let me briefly explain what I heard from the adjutant.

It was only then that Xiu'er realized that the current situation was so severe, no wonder her sister and brother-in-law looked sad these days.

But after knowing the reason, she was even more unwilling to leave her sister and leave, so she persuaded her to leave together.

But Jinniang knew that if this happened, as Adjutant Xu's wife, someone would definitely come here to look for her. If they found out that they ran away early, they might send someone to search, and she was also afraid that her husband would die because of her, so she was very worried. He resolutely rejected Xiu'er's proposal.

In the end, Xiu'er was persuaded by Jinniang to go to the south house to wait for them first. Adjutant Xu has been in Ganzhou for many years. The city gate of Ganzhou is very close, and if something goes wrong, he can leave the city as soon as possible. He prepared it a few days ago when he noticed that the atmosphere in the army was not right, and this time it just came in handy.

But the development of the matter proved that Jinniang's decision was right. Not long after Xiu'er left home with her nephew, an army surrounded the adjutant's house.

This phenomenon happened all over the entire Ganzhou city at that time, and many officers and family members were escorted into the Marshal's Mansion.

And Xiu'er only found out about this later, because she was really worried, so she secretly ran back to Xu's house after her nephew fell asleep, but she knew something was wrong when she saw heavy soldiers guarding the door as soon as she got to the vicinity.

But she is a girl from a family, and she can't play any role at this time. She can only go back to the house where she is hiding and wait for the dawn in fear.

And in the morning of the next day, when Xiu'er went out to inquire about the news, she heard someone talking about what happened last night.

According to them, there was a rebellion in the Marshal's Mansion last night, but it was suppressed forcefully by the Marshal's Mansion, and the rebellious officers and their families were shot to death one by one.

When Xiu'er heard the news, she felt as if she had been hit hard in her heart, and her face was pale and frightening.

Xiu'er didn't go to verify the information, and when she returned to the house, she took her nephew and secretly mixed with the crowd out of the city. Because the night passed, her sister and brother-in-law didn't come to look for them, so she already knew whether the news was true or not.

Today, there are more people leaving the city than before. There are officers' family members who are mixed in the crowd like Xiu'er and the others, and there are also those who are afraid of getting into trouble.

There are more people leaving the city, and more people guarding the city gates. Today's city gates are two or three times more guarded than usual, and they search and identify those who leave the city.

Perhaps it was because Jinniang's decision last night bought time for them. Among the people who went out of the city, several family members who were mixed in were picked out one after another and then dragged aside. He hesitated to pull the trigger.

In panic, Xiuer did not forget to blindfold her nephew. Fortunately, Xu Jinjiang was not frightened and cried like other children. After all, he was born in a military family and was no stranger to gunshots. Young minds are much more mature than later generations.

He knew something had happened to his family, otherwise his aunt wouldn't be in such a hurry to take him out of the city, so he didn't make any noise along the way.

After the shooting of these people, the team continued to be inspected, but compared to before, the mood of the crowd in the team was a little more irritable, and there was inevitably more pushing and shoving.

By the time Xiu'er and the others arrived, the team at the gate of the city was already huddled together, and the inspection by the soldiers at the gate became more difficult. Thanks to this, Xiu'er and Xu Jinjiang passed the inspection successfully, but before they had time to relax, Suddenly someone called out from behind and stopped them.

"The two in front stop!"
