The Sun Never Sets Great China

Chapter 59 The Secret Operation of the White Lotus Sect

The city gate of Kunming was closed for three days. Three days later, due to the shortage of supplies in the city and the lack of fresh food for the people, especially the rich and officials, the city gate was opened when it could not hold on any longer. check.Li Xiang and Liu Dahai didn't have the ability to send the six people out of the city safely, so they had to send their liaison personnel out of the city to find someone from the Yunnan headquarters to find a solution.

Zhang Huahan and the other six could only wait in the cellar. Zhang Huahan, Xiaoyue, Wang Xiaowu, Zhang Cai, and A Gutu practiced kung fu every day when they were free, and Li Mazi also learned one and a half tricks from Wang Xiaowu. style.

In an unknown mountain forest in southern Yunnan, densely packed with tents and carriages, more than 5 people wearing ordinary clothes and carrying knives and guns gathered here, tens of thousands of them held muskets, and 3000 held guns. The quick guns made by the Chinese Revolutionary Army. Among these crowds, six top leaders were discussing something together under the escort of hundreds of quick gunners.

These six are all leaders of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. They were Chen Zhenhui, the governor of Yunnan Province, and Wu Weiye, the deputy governor of Yunnan Province, who were rescued by the militia guerrillas of the Chinese Revolutionary Army when they were escorted from Nanjing to Beijing. Wu Qilong, the chief of the militia who manages [-] militias, and Wen Qi, Taiyida, and Hao Yunlong, the three chiefs of the militia who manage tens of thousands of militias, discussed together the information about Deputy Commander Zhang Huahan sent from Kunming. Solution.

Chen Zhenhui said: "Deputy Commander Zhang is trapped in Kunming, where the main force of the enemy is guarding. We are no match for the enemy in Kunming now, and we cannot take military rescue operations at all." The 6000 militiamen who escaped originally had a militia leader named Bai, but he led the 1 militiamen to sacrifice for the second time. Wen Qi experienced that battle at that time. It was very fierce, if Zhang Huahan and the militia chief surnamed Bai hadn't led eight thousand brave militia fighters to fight to the death, and the musketeers, quick gunners and shield soldiers had rushed through the enemy's encirclement and the terrain was complicated, and the horses could not Mercedes-Benz, plus various reasons why the Manchu Qing army did not chase after him, he led more than [-] people to escape. Not to mention that Zhang Huahan survived in that situation, he even assassinated Leng Sengji, making him Wen Qi felt the existence of miracles, this kind of miracle only happened to the dead leader Zhang Huahan who had the same name as the deputy commander-in-chief, but the miracles that happened to the leader Zhang Huahan did not happen forever, and he died in the end.

Wen Qi said: "My troops and my life were picked up after the deputy commander died. Anyway, I want to save the deputy commander. No matter what, I also want to rescue the deputy commander."

Wu Qilong said: "Boss Wen, Governor Chen means that we can't use force to save him. If we use force, we won't be able to save the deputy commander even if we die in battle. What he means is that we need to use wisdom."

Only then did Wen Qi nod his head, but the six of them discussed for a long time, and they only came up with a way to send two people who are proficient in disguise to leave the city for the six of them.

Ye Bilong, who was in the Kunming commander-in-chief's mansion, was actually very happy. After investigating the matter clearly, he judged that Leng Sengji's death was indeed an accident, because from the small musketeer who captured Leng Sengji and killed Leng Sengji and The confessions of the more than 20 musketeers who accompanied them out of the barracks revealed the six murderers who were not caught, the small school, and the 20 musketeers who accompanied them out of the barracks that night. They went there at the request of the vanity school, and the six murderers who were not caught also met this school after the Musketeers were reorganized. After torture and detailed investigation of the school Finally, the suspicion that he was an assassin of the Chinese Revolutionary Army was ruled out, and the six fugitive Musketeers were only able-bodied, had little alcohol, and kept ammunition privately before they clashed with Leng Sengji's guards and shot them in confusion. Killed Leng Sengji.

As soon as Leng Sengji died, Ye Bilong became the leader of the main force of the Manchu Qing army. Since this place is far away from Beijing, the report of Hong Chengchou's death has not yet arrived in the capital. Now that Leng Sengji has been killed, Ye Bilong I can report Leng Sengji's death after the imperial court announces the decree of the chosen commander-in-chief. If the court chooses Ye Bilong himself as the commander-in-chief, nothing will happen. , then report Leng Sengji's death, it will show the incompetence of the coach, and it will also strengthen Ye Bilong's own reputation.

Ye Bilong was thinking wildly happily, when suddenly a herald came in from outside, and the herald knelt down to report: "General Tu Lie reported that thirteen white lotus warriors with high martial arts skills who entered the city with weapons were found at the east gate. After a battle, three White Lotus believers were killed and ten White Lotus believers were captured. Our army killed 21 people and injured 32. He asked the deputy commander for instructions." After hearing this, Ye Bilong said: " Does the other side know how to use muskets because they are strong in martial arts? What happened to the musketeers on duty, causing so many casualties in our army?" The herald said: "It is because of the use of muskets that so many people were killed and injured. It is said that if muskets were not used, not only death More, I can't even catch them, and the ten people captured by the opponent were all captured by our army after being shot several times." Ye Bilong said: "So powerful, it must be the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect. Bring them here and I will interrogate them myself.”

After Ye Bilong personally tortured and interrogated him with extremely cruel methods, he was shocked to hear the news from the two loosened prisoners of the White Lotus Sect.

It turned out that the thirteen members of the White Lotus Sect were all leaders of the White Lotus Sect. Besides them, more than 200 leaders and key members of the White Lotus Sect came to Kunming. Since the Chinese Revolutionary Army established bases in all central and southern non-urban areas to implement land reform and promote science to eliminate superstitions, believers who believe in the White Lotus Sect have withdrawn one after another, and many leaders and backbones of the White Lotus Sect have quit the White Lotus Sect to join the Chinese Revolution. The army became a regular unit of the Chinese Revolutionary Army or a militia or a government cadre.It is also difficult to recruit believers in places under the complete rule of the Qing Dynasty in the north. Under such circumstances, the White Lotus Sect has only a few thousand believers left from the original 10 people, and most of them have nothing to do with the sect. Faith is just a person who does not pay a penny in the name of a believer. If these people are really forced to pay money and food to the White Lotus Sect, they will quit immediately.Less than half of the believers truly have faith and can contribute money and efforts. At the critical moment when the sect is about to die out, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, He Tong, made the decision to buy people with money, but the White Lotus Sect was repeatedly suppressed by the Ming Dynasty army. , There is no fund at all, and even the church's expenses are provided by the congregation. Now the leaders of the White Lotus Sect are trying to support themselves. The White Lotus Sect doesn't even have ten taels of silver.He Tong, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, found a way.

The predecessor of the White Lotus Sect was actually the Ming Sect. After Zhu Yuanzhang took advantage of the power of the Ming Sect to seize the world, he drowned the little Ming king Han Lin'er and directly wiped out the Ming Sect. Due to the suppression of the Ming Sect by the Ming Dynasty government, the Ming Sect was forced to change its name to the White Lotus Sect, implying that it was born out of mud. Not stained, the silt is of course the perfidious Zhu Ming Dynasty.

After Xiaoming King Han Lin'er drowned, the leaders of Mingjiao already knew that Zhu Yuanzhang, who had a heavy hand in his hand, betrayed Mingjiao, and those who did not join Zhu Yuanzhang in Mingjiao would be cleaned and slaughtered by Zhu Yuanzhang, so they buried the treasures collected by Mingjiao in a hidden place , ready to be used when Mingjiao makes a comeback in the future.

The map recording this treasure is in a secret cave in a mountain at the junction of Tibet and Yunnan where the Mingjiao personnel were stationed. Due to an earthquake, the cave collapsed, but the first generation of the White Lotus Cult leader wrote I drew the detailed address and geographic map of the collapsed cave, which was discovered by He Tong, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, when he accidentally saw and read something written by the first generation of the leader of the White Lotus Sect from a hidden compartment.

He Tong, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, personally led all the existing leaders and key personnel of the White Lotus Sect to find the closed cave. Since he found the exact address, after more than a hundred people continued to dig, he finally found the tattered sheepskin treasure map.The treasure map records that the treasure is in the underground palace built underground in the south of Kunming City, which was occupied by Mingjiao believers at that time.

This time more than 200 leaders and core members of the White Lotus Sect came to Kunming under the leadership of the leader of the White Lotus Sect, He Tong. This time, when the thirteen leaders of the White Lotus Sect pulled a thatched cart with hidden weapons into the city, a soldier accidentally used a spear to barrel the thatched cart to see if there were any people hidden in it. After the weapons were used, they clashed and fought.

The two captives of the White Lotus Sect who let go couldn't stand the torture anymore, but the eight prisoners who didn't open their mouths were all tough guys, no matter what cruel punishment was used, they didn't say a word. He bit his tongue and killed himself, and four of them died.

For Ye Bilong, it was enough for two to let go, and he directly killed the remaining four leaders of the White Lotus Sect who were no longer in human form and did not speak.

Ye Bilong secretly admired the leaders of the White Lotus Sect with iron will, he immediately transferred the two prisoners of the White Lotus Sect who had let go to the upper room to recuperate, and sent people to eat and drink to serve them.After Ye Bilong asked the two of them about the stronghold of the White Lotus Sect in Kunming, he sent people to clean it up.

Ye Bilong first put the city gate under martial law, and all personnel were only allowed to enter, not to exit, and supplies were also only allowed to enter and not to exit. He sent troops to kill the White Lotus Sect's stronghold in Kunming provided by the two of them, and there was no one in those strongholds. Only a few key members of the White Lotus Sect who had no time to escape were captured.It turned out that as soon as the leaders of the White Lotus Sect were arrested, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, He Tong, got the news and immediately notified everyone to evacuate their strongholds and find a new place to live.

In Li Xiang's hotel, twelve tenants suddenly moved in, because three rooms were already occupied, and 12 people could only squeeze into seven rooms.

Li Xiang and the others found that not only their inn, but also a few inns in the south of the city had guests. The thoughtful Gao Shunzi asked several other inns while shopping for vegetables, and found that there were more than 200 new guests in all the inns today.

In the evening, after greeting the guests, Li Xiang, Gao Shunzi and Liu Dahai had dinner together in Li Xiang's room. Gao Shunzi said: "These people have accents from Huguang, Henan, southern Fujian, Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan. There are 230 people who can be counted. I also asked Xiao Wang to go to the north, east, and west of the city to check. The inns there did not have a large number of new guests, and they all lived in the south of the city. The gate of the city is guarded today, and everything is only allowed in and out. It is estimated that it is the same as the day before yesterday. According to the intelligence sent by the green battalion, it is related to the armed fight that took place, and it is said that the White Lotus Sect was arrested."

Liu Dahai took a sip of rice and said, "These people are probably not from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but from the White Lotus Sect. It probably has nothing to do with us. We just need to see what these people are going to do. Lao Wang will come tomorrow." During the meal, let him send two people to watch them relay and see their whereabouts." Gao Shunzi nodded.

Li Xiang said: "The letter sent to the headquarters has probably arrived. I don't know what the leaders are thinking about." Liu Dahai said: "Yes, but the longer you stay here, the better it will be. , It is estimated that the martial law will be lifted."

In a secluded small courtyard deep in a small alley in the south of Kunming City, some people came in and out to move soil from the house, and some people piled the soil into an empty courtyard next door. A mountain of earth had already been piled up in the big courtyard, and there was a big hole in the house in the small courtyard. Someone was digging the hole in and out, and carrying the dug out soil outside.

Beside the cave, there is a table with a sheepskin map on it. Eight people are standing and looking at the map. One of them, a fat and tall monk, said, "It's because we don't have enough funds to dig a hole right above the underground palace where the treasure is hidden." Another tall, black-faced man said: "The entrance to the underground palace where the treasure is hidden is just under the hotel where I live, but it's a pity that I don't have the money to sell that hotel. "If Li Xiang was here, he would be able to recognize that this person is a guest staying in his hotel.

Among the eight people, a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe with a medium build and handsome appearance said: "It's just a few days more work. There is nothing to complain about. It's just a pity that the five elders and the eight guardians were all killed by the minions of the Qing Dynasty. You can catch them, and there are traitors among them, who have betrayed our stronghold, and they must know about our search for treasures. Everyone needs to pay attention to that once they are surrounded by the Qing Dynasty, it is better to escape. If you can't escape, you will commit suicide and be martyred. If you are caught by Man Qing, you will either die or you will betray my religion. It is not good."

Another burly middle-aged man said: "What the leader said is that everyone must keep in mind that now the brothers at the top of my teaching only have four heavenly kings, two special envoys on the left and right, three elders and five sect masters of the Five Elements Sect." There is also me, the deputy leader, everyone must be careful, starting from tomorrow, everyone will not come, wait in your own inn, if you have any news, let everyone know, everyone also tell the brothers who are waiting in the inn, If you can escape after being surrounded by the minions of the Qing Dynasty, don't come here, go to the brothers in other inns or find a hiding place to hide yourself, be careful, now is the time when my teaching lives and dies, everyone must Don't be an exile." The other six clasped their fists and bowed their heads, shouting: "Obey the orders of the leader and deputy leader."

He Tong, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, dressed as a medium-sized and handsome scholar, looked at the treasure map and said: "It is said that this underground palace was built in a long time ago. At that time, there were barbarians here. Who made this underground palace and how did you make it?" I don’t know, the treasure is at the outermost part of the underground palace. According to the introduction about this underground palace written by the first teacher after my teaching changed its name, this underground palace has many organs. When my seniors discovered it, they just broke through the underground palace. Hundreds of top martial arts masters died in the outermost organs and ghosts, and dozens of masters who survived were seriously injured, which caused King Xiao Ming to lose a large number of independent masters at once. Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang murdered Xiao Ming at the beginning Queen, those experts have assassinated and killed Zhu Yuanzhang. Anyway, what everyone needs to pay attention to is that after entering the treasure and withdrawing, we now have no strength to go deeper, it is a terrible place. "

Everyone gasped after hearing this, and the deputy leader Zhan Yun asked: "Ghostly thing? What is it?" Leader He Tong said: "The first leader after changing his name doesn't know, only those who know The old seniors who have died long ago are things we can’t afford to mess with anyway. Please remember not to go deeper after entering. The top of the underground palace is more than 60 meters underground, which is also the entrance, and the underground palace does not matter how big or deep it is. I don't know, did gods and ghosts really exist in ancient times?But we Huoming God King definitely exist. "

In the Marshal's Mansion in Kunming City, Ye Bilong drank tea and listened to the report of the deputy general below: "Suddenly 230 new people took up residence in eleven inns in the south of the city, and thirteen people were investigated. They are probably members of the White Lotus Sect." There are 210 and eight people. Dozens of them entered a courtyard in a small hidden dead end today. The courtyard has been checked, and a large courtyard and a small courtyard were all seized because the head of the family moved to Sichuan and was eager to sell. I bought it at a low price, and we sent people to look it over, and the damp earth and rocks have piled up into a hill, which seems to be the site where the White Lotus Sect was excavated, do you think they want to arrest people?"

After taking a sip of tea, Ye Bilong said, "What's the rush? We'll go in and catch them after they've dug up the treasure. After we get the treasure, the brothers will be able to live a life of delicious food and spicy food for two years. Wait, and send people to closely monitor it." .By the way, you said that the owners of those two yards have moved to Sichuan, how many people have moved away in recent months?"

The adjutant said: "Many, especially in the past month, a full [-]% of them have left. It is said that most of them went to the countryside and Sichuan, and some went to Jiangnan, Fujian, Guangdong and other places."

Ye Bi solemnly pressed the teacup on the table, and said, "You can just say that they all go to the territory of the Chinese Revolutionary Army! Tell the governor that no one is allowed to move in the future, and they all squat in Kunming!"

In the middle of the night, in the room where Li Xiang lived in an inn named Hotel in the south of the city, Li Xiang, Gao Shunzi, and Liu Dahai had dinner together after they had finished their work. Gao Shunzi said: "They went to a hidden yard. What, the excavated soil is like a hill." Li Xiang said: "It doesn't matter, we just need to be more careful."
