late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 60
May 1861, 10 sunny
Under my command, [-] greenhouses and more than [-] collective dormitories were quickly rebuilt.

Wan Quan gathered all the brothers together, all of them were full of fighting spirit. Seeing their enthusiasm, I was more confident in what I was doing.

"Everyone, I know that after this transformation, everyone's living conditions have become a little more difficult, but we are doing this for self-reliance and to help more people who are starving. Do you think it's worth it!"

I am like those who give speeches, standing on the high platform, giving chicken blood to the brothers below.

"It's worth it!" Before my words fell, the brothers below shouted.

After the shout, Wanquan spoke again, "This condition is much better than living in a cave and digging wild vegetables. The adults are our parents, and we will do our best to serve him!"

"Allegiance to the adults! Allegiance to the adults!..."

"Everyone be quiet." I raised my hand to signal everyone to be quiet, "Everyone, I don't need you to be loyal to me, I need you to be loyal to the motherland. The foreign devils have already invaded our land. The motherland is under our feet. We have no way out!"

"Yes! The foreign devils bully people too much! Down with the foreign devils! Defend my Chinese dignity!" the people below shouted.

When the foreign devils were mentioned, everyone's emotions became aroused. Among them, it is estimated that some of them would lose their families because of opium, and some would lose their farmland because of the foreign devils.

Internal contradictions are often vulnerable to this kind of ethnic hatred.

"Okay, since everyone hates foreign devils, just do what I say. We must strengthen ourselves before we can fight foreign devils!"

In my speech tribe, those people all shouted again, "Strengthen yourself! Fight the foreign devils! Strengthen yourself! Fight the foreign devils!"

It seems that everyone's emotions have been mobilized by me, which is a good sign.

"So, the first step to strengthen yourself is to feed everyone and have a strong body, and then practice martial arts with Mei Shuang every day to improve your fighting power!"

……

I was impassioned on the high platform, and everyone seemed to have been pumped, full of energy, and this is what I want.

A revolution requires fighting blood and unwavering faith!

After I delivered the 'speech', I went back to the house to continue planning. I wanted to keep Mei Shuang here, but I was worried that it would be inconvenient for all big men here. people.

There is also the matter of the coal mine. I don't know how Yixin is doing, and Zhong Ting didn't bring a word back.

In fact, I should go to Datong in person to see the coal mining situation there. However, I am wandering aimlessly like this, and it is hard to explain when I go back.

The most important thing is that it is easy to scare the snake.

"My lord, there is someone outside who claims to be your friend, and he came to see you." Wan Quan stood at the door and reported.

"My friend?" I frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled, "Bring him in first."

"Yes!" Wanquan replied, and ran out in a hurry. Not long after, he escorted someone into my room.

"Sir!" Chen Yucheng burst into tears when he saw me.

I was a little surprised, why did he suddenly come here to look for me, "Let him go, Yucheng, why are you here?"

"Sir, King Yi has been captured!" Chen Yucheng stepped forward and looked at me excitedly.

It seemed that he was asking me for help, but, to my surprise, Shi Dakai was caught at this time.

"What's going on, tell me." I told him to sit down, and Ming Wanquan poured him a cup of tea.

I feel that God is helping me. Only when Shi Dakai is captured will he be able to start a revolution with me.

"King Yi went to Sichuan to attack Shu, but he was besieged by the Qing army. In the end, King Yi surrendered and was captured for the lives of thousands of soldiers." Chen Yucheng said while wiping tears.

"Don't worry, I'm going to Sichuan right now to see the situation." I comforted Chen Yucheng.

Seeing that I was so straightforward, Chen Yucheng agreed, and immediately got up and knelt on the ground, "Sir! I, Chen Yucheng, will be the saddle and follow the master from now on!"

"Okay, let's wait until Shi Dakai is rescued first." I helped him up.

In fact, I don't know much about it. After all, I don't know the generals of the Qing army very well. However, this is a good opportunity for me to subdue Shi Dakai.

"So, let's set off immediately to Jinguan City." I said.

I know that Shi Dakai was arrested in Chengdu, but I don't know if Chengdu was also called Jinguan City in the Qing Dynasty.

I remember learning a poem when I was in middle school, and there was a line in it called, "Where can I find the Prime Minister's Ancestral Hall, Bai Sensen outside Jinguan City." ’, this refers to Chengdu.

"My lord's great kindness and virtue, Chen will never forget it!" Chen Yucheng saluted again, and then stood up.

"Okay, let me get someone to prepare it first." I said, got up and walked out, "Wan Quan, where are Mei Shuang and the others?"

"I'm probably working with everyone." Wan Quan replied.

"Go and find Zhong Yi, Mei Shuang, and Han Yun." I ordered.

"Okay, my lord, I'll go right away." Wan Quan responded and quickly ran away.

After a while, Mei Shuang and the others all came over, "Mei Shuang, Zhong Yi, we have important things to do now, we are going to Jinguan City, you go down and prepare some things for the road."

"My lord, let me go." Zhong Yi volunteered to leave.

I looked at Mei Shuang again and said, "Mei Shuang, you can stay here."

"My lord..." Mei Shuang raised her mouth in obvious reluctance.

"You stay here to train their kung fu. Besides, it's a long way to Jinguan City, so you should stop traveling." I said.

"My lord, I don't care. Anyway, wherever you go, I will follow you." Mei Shuang stood aside shamelessly.

"Then tell me, what to do with the mess here!" I asked her.

Mei Shuang was silent for a long time before she said dully, "Then let Zhong Yi stay, anyway, I want to be with you."

"Mei Shuang, just listen to your lord and stay." Wan Quan also stood up and spoke.

"No!" Mei Shuang flatly refused.

After a while, Zhong Yi came back, probably overheard my conversation, and volunteered to say, "My lord, why don't you stay with me, and you take Miss Meishuang with you."

"It's better to like it!" Mei Shuang immediately smiled.

I had no choice but to give Zhong Yi a few words and leave him alone, and then Chen Yucheng, Han Yun, Mei Shuang and the rest of us set out on the road.
