Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

The person closest to Lin Yuan was so frightened that he yelled "Oh my god", and as soon as he let go of the gun, it fell to the ground. Lin Yuan kicked the gun off the ground and pointed the gun at that person, and the other soldiers also took action. , instantly surrounded the crowd who rushed in, and said one after another: "Put down the gun."

The soldiers were a little at a loss, and stared blankly at a big black-faced man behind him. The big black-faced man raised his hand and said to everyone, "Everyone, put down your guns first!" When the soldiers heard his words, they all bent down and put down their guns. Lin Yuan ordered the guns to be put away, and said to everyone, "I'm not here to kill you. As long as you don't resist, I will never hurt you. Now put your hands on your heads and sit by the wall."

After hearing Lin Yuan's words, more than 20 people walked to the wall and sat down. Lin Yuan looked at the black-faced man and said, "Are you the leader of these people?"

The black-faced man nodded, and Lin Yuan continued to ask, "I heard people call you Ying Tong, but is there only a dozen or so people in your battalion?"

Hei Lian let out a long sigh and said, "It's hard to say!"

Lin Yuan knew that there were a lot of secrets here, so he pointed to the table next to him, and said with a smile, "Let's talk over there." The black-faced man stood up and followed Lin Yuan to sit on the edge of the table. He asked, "What's your name, and whose subordinate is it?"

The black-faced man sized Lin Yuan up and said, "My lord, you have arrested all of our brothers and we will obey you. Can you tell me first, who are you?"

Lin Yuan replied, "My surname is Lin and my name is Yuan."

The black-faced man's complexion suddenly changed, his face was filled with reverence, and he said, "I didn't expect it was Lin Shuai, disrespect and disrespect, it is also my honor to be caught by you."

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "I didn't expect my reputation to be so great, it would be an honor to be caught by me!" So Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Can you answer my question?"

The black-faced man said loudly: "My surname is Wang and my name is Xiang. I am the battalion commander of the Xiangzi Battalion under Jiang Huayong's general army!"

Lin Yuan knew that the army led by Jiang Huayong was one of the three rebels, so he asked, "Where did the rest of you go?"

Wang Xiang sighed and said, "It all started when we entered Gansu. It turned out that Yang Changjun sent three of our troops to train bravely to go to Xinyuan County at the same time to wipe out the rebel bandits. Our general Jiang Huayong took one with him, and the other two for training bravery. The commander-in-chief, one named Long Tengfei and the other Zhong Xinyuan, we have three troops with a population of about 3. We thought that we could wipe out the bandits in Xinyuan County in less than a day, but I didn't expect..."

When Wang Xiang said this, he let out another long sigh, and said, "It all happened to Zhong Xinyuan!"

Lin Yuan hurriedly asked: "What happened to Zhong Xinyuan?"

Wang Xiang said: "Zhong Xinyuan is a Muslim! Moreover, he is stationed in Guyuan Prefecture, and there are many Muslims in the army!"

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Guyuan Prefecture is the Guyuan City in my era. It has always been a gathering place for Muslims. It is not surprising that there are many Muslims in Zhong Xinyuan's army. Although the Qing court adopted a policy of hostility and persecution against Muslims, but There are still many Hui generals in the Qing court, for example, the patriotic general Zuo Baogui who fought side by side with the Japanese army in North Korea is one of them!"

Wang Xiang continued: "Your Excellency, you don't know yet, do you? This uprising started with the Muslims. If the Huis hadn't killed the chief envoy of Gansu first, the Han people in Yuanwu County and Beishan County would not have rioted!"

Lin Yuan said: "I've heard all these things. Did Zhong Xinyuan turn his back on seeing the Muslims being killed?"

Wang Xiang shook his head and said, "That's not the case. Zhong Xinyuan also opposed the rebellion at the beginning, and even killed a few Muslims in a battle, but then something happened, and Zhong Xinyuan completely rebelled!"

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said, "What's the matter? Hurry up and talk."

Wang Xiang replied: "When we arrived in Xinyuan County, the county seat had already been occupied by rebels. Long Tengfei's troops attacked the county seat first. There was a so-called 'Qing Mo Temple' in the county seat..."

Lin Yuan asked, "A mosque?"

Wang Xiang nodded hastily, and said: "That's right, it's the mosque, where the Muslims all go. After Long Tengfei's troops entered the county town, they burned the mosque directly, and even burned some people called 'imams' inside. He was tied to a pillar and burned to death. After Zhong Xinyuan heard about it, he went to Long Tengfei to make a theory. It happened that the three troops had a meeting that day to discuss the pursuit of the rebels! The two of them were in front of so many battalions. Big fight! Lin Shuai, do you know why they are fighting?"

Lin Yuan said: "Most Hui people believe in Islam. Mosques are the holy places of Islam. Imams are the priests inside. They must not be offended. Long Tengfei not only burned the mosque, but also burned the imams to death. Their greatest insult!"

Wang Xiang said: "It's really not because of the fight. The reason for the fight is: Zhong Xinyuan angrily asked Long Tengfei to make a theory, but Long Tengfei actually looked like he didn't know anything. We guessed at the time that it might be Long Tengfei's subordinates. Yes, Long Tengfei didn't know at all! But Zhong Xinyuan didn't care so much, he just hit him when he came up! There were more than a dozen of us and we didn't hold him down!"

"After the fight between the two, Zhong Xinyuan came to our Master Jiang Huayong. The two talked secretly all night. No one knew what they were talking about. But the next morning, Master Jiang ordered us to stop attacking the rebels. We guessed at that time , This is going to be a big event! Zhong Xinyuan and Mr. Jiang are probably about to turn against each other!"

Lin Yuan frowned, and asked, "Your Master Jiang is also a Muslim?"

Wang Xiang shook his head and said, "No!"

Lin Yuan asked: "Then why did Zhong Xinyuan discuss betrayal with him?"

Wang Xiang replied: "Although Mr. Jiang is a military officer, we have read a lot of books, and we speak in the same way. He is the most kind person, and he is very easy to soften his heart. For example, we had a fight with the rebels. In the battle, more than a dozen farmers were arrested. If the chief soldier was someone else, these people would cut off their heads without asking. However, Mr. Jiang insisted on letting them go, giving them some money, and telling them to farm the land according to their duties. , don’t make any more troubles!”

"Furthermore, Master Jiang of our family was born as a tenant farmer. His family was too poor to say anything. He started herding cattle for the landlord's family when he was five years old. He could only wear single clothes in the cold winter months. He hugged the cow to keep warm when he was too cold. He told us that at that time, he was most looking forward to cow shit!"

Lin Yuan asked in surprise, "What are you looking forward to?"

Wang Xiang replied: "Isn't the excrement pulled by a cow warm? Put your feet in it and it will be warm!"

Lin Yuan sighed: "The life of these tenants is really miserable!"

Wang Xiang said: "That's right, so Mr. Jiang is the most pitiful to those tenant farmers, and who is the most rebel? Xinyuan County is Hui people, but Beishan and Yuanwu counties are both tenant farmers. Which peasants with land want to rebel?" What’s more, the tenant farmers in more than a dozen surrounding states and counties have risen up, equalizing the land and exempting grain is their banner, so we guessed that Zhong Xinyuan and Mr. Jiang wanted to protect the Muslims and the tenant farmers, so they turned against the water!”

Lin Yuan asked, "Did you guess? Didn't they say it clearly?"

Wang Xiang said: "At the beginning, I didn't say it clearly, because they were afraid of Long Tengfei, who had the largest number of troops, but then suddenly a strange thing happened, and Zhong Xinyuan and Master Jiang announced it!"
