"So, the whole incident was a conspiracy from the beginning? As a bait, I attracted my husband to lead the main force south, and then, the rear launched a mutiny to cut off his way back?" Chen Lenghe's tone was very calm, without panic or nervousness.

Chen Wuwei obviously admired her attitude and smiled with a smile, "You can't say that. Before the husband sent troops, no one can be sure whether he would really move troops. If the Lu army did not move in Shandong, the Yan and Jin coalition might face greater challenges. But this has nothing to do with people's hearts and the general trend. The power of one or two armies can't be reversed. I didn't expect that Zhao Guanhou would actually build an army for Miss Chen and decide to be an enemy of the world. Regardless of whether there was a Yan and Jin coalition, from the moment he sent troops, he was doomed to fail."

"Oh? What is the retreat that the governor mentioned?" Chen Lenghe looked at Chen Wuwei with big eyes, and that look made David Li feel boundless sour.

"It's very simple, just cooperate with me." Chen Wuwei lit a cigarette. "Your marriage with Zhao Guanhou was not voluntary, but now I'd better correct this mistake. I heard David tell me that I can realize your idea. You don't need to rush to decide who to marry. Marriage is a very important thing. Now in this war, it's not suitable to make hasty decisions. As for the road money in Sichuan, we can discuss it and repay it in installments. What Miss Chen has to do is to publicly announce that severing the relationship between husband and wife with Zhao Guanhou can be regarded as a separation from the old forces, breaking it twice, and drawing a clear line. The New Master Mansion has always respected intellectuals. Excellent women like Miss Chen, as long as they have nothing to do with the old forces, they will definitely be valued by the New Master Mansion."

David Li said: "Yes, Leng He, think about it, the dream of saving the country and revitalizing the national economy can finally be realized. Mr. Sun has long advocated improving the status of women, which is impossible in the Jin Dynasty. As long as you devote yourself to the Xinzhengfu, whether it is developing the economy, saving the nation to survive, or fighting for status for female compatriots, it is achievable. Isn't this the goal you have been working hard to achieve?"

Chen Lenghe did not look at him, but only looked at Chen Wuwei. "Governor Chen, what do you mean is that if I want to cooperate with Xinzhengfu, I must announce my divorce from my husband?"

"That's right. I don't think this condition is harsh. In fact, I believe that if Miss Chen was not forced by the situation and the other party's power, she would have had such a plan long ago. After all, you are an excellent and self-reliant woman and never want to be someone's concubine. In the future, Zhengyuan Women's Bank can cooperate with Songjiang Zhengfu and become a joint venture bank. I believe that Zhengyuan will have a better future."

"Where is the time?"

"So quickly." Chen Wuwei did not hide it at all. "The situation of Zhao Guanhou is just like the King of Chu, with the support being cut off and the morale of the army is unstable. As soon as Ms. Chen announced his divorce, his expedition turned into a joke, which was like Zhang Zifang's flute and blowing away his millions of soldiers. It is precisely because of such a great effect that we can talk about cooperation. In fact, we can completely make a fictional statement, but it is not as effective as your personal statement, so I have to aggrieved Ms. Chen, go to the top of Jiangning City and announce this matter publicly to the soldiers of the Fifth Town. As long as you do all this, you will be our guest of honor and one of the most important guests of the Xinzheng Mansion."

"Just a guest of honor? I thought you would send me back to Songjiang." Chen Lenghe smiled sweetly, took out a lip balm from it, and applied it gently on his lips, making it more and more dazzling.

Chen Wuwei helped her glasses, "I'm sorry, I don't want to lie to Miss Chen. Now I can't let you go back to Songjiang. Only when the war is over and the situation stabilizes can I really let you go back. But I can guarantee that you will receive the highest standard of hospitality in Jiangning, and Mr. Sun will come to Jiangning. Representatives from all over the world and talents from all walks of life will gather in Jiangning. If you stay here, you will definitely meet a suitable young man and form a lifelong partner. This is also a great benefit for our future cooperation."

Chen Lenghe nodded, "I understand, if I bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, if I don't marry a key official from the new official, you won't feel at ease. If I play a trick, announce my divorce here, and then marry Guanhou after leaving, you will be greatly affected in public opinion and international reputation. Only when I really marry the people from the new official can you be completely feel at ease."

"Ms. Chen understands it. Besides, if you don't have a reliable man as a shelter, you have to face countless crazy bees and butterflies. I think Ms. Chen himself should understand the importance of marriage to you. I can guarantee that although the scope is limited, the specific candidate will not be forced, and it can be decided by you."

Chen Lenghe smiled generously, "Since the scope is limited, what is the difference between this kind of voluntariness and coercion? So here is the reason why I am not optimistic about you. I keep saying that people and people live together, but in the end I have to do this. With this method, I don't think you can achieve the goal you promised. So, my answer is...reject!"

Her hands suddenly pulled out of her bag, but this time she took out not lipstick or powder puff, but a revolver. Chen Wuwei was quick-witted and grabbed the table with both hands and flicked upwards. The gunshot sounded at this moment.

The gunshots rang and the man fell to the ground. David Li stared at everything in front of him in amazement. Chen Wuwei fell to the ground, life and death were unknown. Chen Lenghe stood by the bed with a gun, with a firm expression. The door was suddenly pushed open, and several people walked in from outside.

David Li subconsciously reached out to Chen Lenghe, "Drop her gun, she assassinated Governor Chen."

The man who rushed in first turned around and looked at him, sneered: "I'm sorry, you've made a mistake. I'm not your subordinate. I am her husband Zhao Guanhou, who took his wife home for dinner."

Then the person came to Chen Lenghe and gently hugged her, "I'm sorry, I'm a little late, I've been wronged and I'll shoot myself. Now that I'm here, you can rest assured, put down the gun and I'll take you home."

The gun in Chen Lenghe fell to the ground, rushed into the man's arms, and shouted "Answer!"

Another tall escort who walked in coughed, "Okay, I'll go home intimately, this is not a place now, go quickly. This..." He pointed at David Li, "Do you want to deal with it?"

Zhao Guanhou looked at Chen Lenghe, "Are you familiar with him?"

Chen Lenghe no longer cared about anything else, but just hugged Zhao Guanhou tightly, shook her head and said, "I don't care about anyone except you, I can do whatever you want."

"Let's go!"

Zhao Guanhou gave an order, and this group of people walked out quickly as they were when they were arriving. Chen Lenghe was picked up by Zhao Guanhou and walked out of the room with great strides. Only then did she realize that Liu Fubiao and his guard had been disarmed.

When I arrived outside the door, I saw the guard post at the door, but the soldiers from the original Ninth Town were still the soldiers from the Ninth Town. However, after seeing Zhao Guanhou, I just kept saying congratulations and had no intention of making things difficult. After this group of troops left, the soldiers from the Ninth Town took off their military uniforms, threw away their weapons, and then disappeared into the darkness.

David Li was stunned in the room for a few minutes. He thought someone would come over, give him a knife, or tie him up. But from beginning to end, no one cared about him, as if he had regarded him as a transparent person.

Chen Wuwei had already shed a lot of blood and dyed half of his body red. It was not until he let out a few painful moans that David Li realized what he should do. He first ran to the bed and picked up his pistol, fiddled with it for a few times, then came outside and shot it in the sky, shouting: "Come on, come on, come on! Governor Chen was assassinated, and Zhao Guanhou has entered the city!"

The gunshots rang out on the streets of Jiangning. There were imperial soldiers outside, and the defenses in the city would not be relaxed. In Jiangning, night bans were implemented at night. Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, the originally quiet streets soon fell into chaos.

Ningjun sentry officer Liang Dengdian originally led his troops to patrol the streets, but the defense zone was not in this area, but based on his sense of responsibility, he did not dare to delay the gunshots and immediately led his troops to come. It was already eleven o'clock at night, and there were street lights in Jiangning City, so his eyesight was not hindered.

From afar, I heard people shouting the sound of horses neighing, and the sound of horse hooves trampling on the ground was like thunder. He waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately raised their rifles to warn them. Soon, they saw a white Taixi horse carrying two people in front of them. Behind this mount, there were more than a hundred horses, roaring, and the iron hooves beat the war drums on the ground of the ancient capital, sweeping towards their direction.

These war horses were tall and strong, and at night they looked like demons. The Soviet-Zhejiang coalition forces did not have cavalry equipment, and a few horses were also inferior horses, which were incomparable to such foreign horses that obviously came from Taixi. You can tell at first glance that the person coming was definitely not his companion.

Liang Dengdian felt that his heartbeat was several times faster than usual, so he raised his pistol and scolded: "Stop!"

Replying to him was a row of ruthless bullets, and then his whistle was trampled by the iron cavalry. Only broken guns and flags were left on the ground, as well as casualties who were slashed by knives and horses.

Chen Lenghe curled up in Zhao Guanhou's arms, and the bullets roared past her ears, and she could even feel the burning heat when the bullets brushed across her cheeks. After all, there were huge forces in Jiangning City. After the gunfire, troops would immediately come to block the attack. However, in front of this cavalry, infantry, which had no time to form a formation or build a defense, could not play too much blocking role.

The infantry formed a team on the street were instantly stabbed by the cavalry. Most of these new troops were on the battlefield for the first time and encountered such cavalry conflicts. Only seeing those huge monsters, they were scared to their teeth tremble, and their posture of loading and shooting was seriously deformed, and the guns and bullets were not accurate, and the bayonet formation was too plagued.

These incredible soldiers were loyal soldiers, who were still loyal to their duties even though they knew they would die. Their tenacity also caused the Lu army's cavalry to begin to suffer casualties. One war horse was wailing to the ground, and the riders fell heavily under the horse.

Some cavalrymen were not dead, but still raised their rifles and shot at the enemy, shouting: "Master, go quickly, my little family will be entrusted to you!"

These cavalry carried bullets with them, and they threw bullets while running. The lander also threw bullets with force. Explosions were heard everywhere, and screams were made one after another.

The direction they were moving was close to Taiping Gate in Dibaocheng. The officers and soldiers of the Fourth Battalion of the Ninth Town had received orders. Chen Lenghe was rescued by Zhao Guanhou and ordered to block the doors and not allow them to escape.

Although I don’t know how many troops there are to enter the city, I think there will be not too many, and one battalion can always be blocked. However, the troops just finished assembled and helped Guan Cheng lead the troops and said:

"Brothers, we should be conscientious. Don't forget, when we owe the wages, who will allocate funds to raise funds so that everyone will not go hungry and let the family have a meal. Besides, we are soldiers, and Jiangning is our hometown. If Zhao Guanhou is beaten to death, the people of the fifth town will have to take revenge. At that time, Jiangning will be afraid of being buried with him."

Guandao Zhao Wu said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense? If you say such words, be careful that I will put you in custody."

"Zhao Guandai, you have no reason. Isn't it a common alliance now? Everyone knows equally? Officers are not higher than soldiers, and they cannot put on airs or stumble on soldiers. What can you do if you care about what I say? Now it is advocated that the ban will be open, and there will be their own words. When will it be hindering you if I want to say anything?"

Several whistleblowers also said: "Guan, don't worry, wait until he finishes his words before saying this.Guan, why do you want to be buried with him?"

"This is not obvious? Tianbao City is lost. Since the Taiping Army, Jiangning has lost Tianbao City, and there is no time to defend it. Even if he is killed, his troops can still break the city. Now Zhao Guanhou is alive, and he is the one who comes to attack the city. If he has a few shortcomings, maybe Zhang Yuan and his braided soldiers will come to attack the city. We know what those people are. After they entered Jiangning, you think about what the situation is in the city."

Zhao Wu said angrily: "Enough! You are shaking the morale of the army. People come and put his gun off!"

He shouted several times, but no one moved below, and even his personal patriarch didn't wait to move. A personal soldier said, "Guide, I think what the helper said makes sense. I am a city man, so I can't let Mr. Zhang come in, otherwise my family will be killed. This order...we cannot obey. Now, please hand over your weapons..."

The war horse gallops.

Chen Lenghe's tears never stopped for a moment. Since breaking through, more than 20 cavalry have suffered casualties. The price paid by the defenders cannot be calculated. I don't know how many infantry teams were trampled by these cavalry and corpses were everywhere. In her opinion, all this was caused by herself. If it weren't for her arrest, Zhao Guanhou wouldn't have come to save her, nothing would have happened.

So many excellent men, brave and loyal soldiers, fell down like this, and she felt that her heart was stabbed by the knife again and again. She was just a banker, not a soldier, and she didn't have such a cruel heart. The only hope now is that this nightmare ends sooner, everyone gets out of danger earlier.

The officers and soldiers of the ninth town did not appear, but a Ning army was already blocked on the road. The Ning army was very estimated, with more than two posts. Although it was a hasty army, its formation was already well-formed.

Chen Lenghe closed her eyes. She could imagine that the next thing would be a shocking wave of gunfire. On her side, I don’t know who would fall down again.

Sometimes she even hopes that she will be shot so that she can repay the debt she owed. Anyway, she has seen her husband, and even if she dies now, she will have no regrets.

The gunshots and explosions sounded indeed. But this time, they did not come from the cavalry, but from behind the blocking troops. An infantry team appeared like a ghost, with extremely accurate volleyballs and bullets left by hand, which defeated the blocking troops. Two sentry officers were killed on the spot, and the troops were easily crushed by the iron cavalry like lambs to be slaughtered.

Zhao Guanhou lowered his head and said to Chen Lenghe: "Open your eyes, it's okay."

Chen Lenghe saw that a unit in new military uniforms acted as a guide in front to guide them, and the other unit was behind the cavalry hall. She looked familiar with the officer who led the troops, and the other party had already come to greet him enthusiastically, "Hello, madam, you don't recognize the young one, the young one is Huo Qiu, we have seen it in Songjiang..."

The door bolt of the Taiping Gate has been removed and the gate has been opened. Dozens of infantry ran over and the leader angrily shouted, "Summer and Qiufeng, do you two brothers want to turn against the water? Why don't you stop them quickly?"
